Chapter 323 The Authority of the Provincial Party Secretary
Chapter 323 The Authority of the Provincial Party Committee Secretary
The layout of Kaoshan Village is not similar to that of ordinary mountain villages. Unlike other places, the village is built on the flat land at the foot of the mountain. Instead, the entire village is built on the mountain. It stretches from the foot of the mountain to the middle of the mountain, and is inhabited by people.
.
A mountain road leads directly from the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain, and the villagers' farmhouses are located on both sides of the mountain road.
This peculiar mountain dwelling layout in Kaoshan Village aroused the strong interest of Provincial Party Committee Secretary Zhou Xiaolin. Accompanied by Zhang Zhijun and other town cadres, he and several provincial Party committee leaders slowly climbed up the mountain while looking at the village with a smile.
Looking at the appearance of the village, they occasionally talked to each other and laughed heartily.
Following closely behind were Municipal Party Committee Secretary Feng Botao, Mayor Ma Liguo, County Party Committee Secretary Zhang Qiang and County Magistrate Sun Xiang. When they heard the happy laughter and conversation of Zhou Xiaolin and his entourage from time to time, they slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
Secretary Zhou and these provincial party committee leaders did not seem to be affected by the sudden suspension of work of the Sky Group project department today, which had no impact on the mood of the inspection work. This could not help but make Feng Botao and other city and county cadres secretly think that they were lucky.
In fact, only Zhou Xiaolin knows whether he is happy or not. With his identity and status, even if he is troubled in his heart, it is impossible for him to show it on his face. It is also impossible for him to walk away and end this inspection halfway.
What else could happen? It’s just that I may not stay in Ningshan for two days. Maybe I’ll stay one night today and leave early tomorrow.
As for provincial party committee leaders such as Kong Yan and Yu Jiangang, they mainly look at Zhou Xiaolin's "wind direction." Since Zhou Xiaolin behaves as usual, they naturally won't say anything.
"Lao Yu, Minister Kong, this backing village is very unique. Come and see, I think the villagers' houses are quite old. The bluestone courtyard walls seem to still have traces left by the guns of the Revolutionary War.
...The traces of time, this is the testimony of the great historical contribution of the people in the old revolutionary areas, and it will never be erased..."
“In those days in the Central and Southern Mountains, the common people scrimped on food and clothing and raised many revolutionary warriors... Years have passed, and decades have passed by in a hurry, but who can still remember this land and people who once devoted themselves to the revolution?”
"The old revolutionary areas are still very poor. This is our dereliction of duty. As government leaders, we must do our best to help the people in the old areas get rid of poverty and become rich as soon as possible and live a well-off life..."
Zhou Xiaolin stopped under the moss-covered bluestone courtyard wall of a farmer's house, reached out and touched it gently, his voice full of emotion.
Few cadres in the province know that Zhou Xiaolin's father was a revolutionary martyr who died before the founding of the People's Republic of China. He once fought guerrillas against foreign invaders in the mountainous areas of central and southern Binhai Province. Therefore, Zhou Xiaolin has very special feelings for the central and southern mountainous areas. He took office.
The poverty alleviation and development strategy of Central South Africa that he later led and promoted also had a certain relationship with his personal feelings.
Yu Jiangang agreed with a smile, "Yes, Secretary Zhou, people today cannot forget the contribution of the old revolutionary areas. In the future, the provincial party committee and the provincial government will increase the intensity of poverty alleviation in the old revolutionary areas and provide more policies and funds."
Support will attract more companies to invest in the old areas and promote economic development."
Zhou Xiaolin nodded and stood there in silence for a long time.
A group of provincial, city and county officials also stood there quietly. The mayor Zhang Zhijun who accompanied the tour glanced back and saw Zhou Nan wink at him, so he quietly withdrew from the crowd and walked to Zhou Nan.
"County Magistrate Zhou..."
Zhou Nan whispered a few words in his ear, Zhang Zhijun quickly agreed, turned around and called a town cadre who was following him to come over and give instructions.
After a while, Zhou Xiaolin continued to walk upwards, and everyone quickly followed.
Zhang Zhijun did not dare to neglect and chased after him. He also waited beside a group of provincial party committee leaders, ready to "introduce" the situation at any time.
This mountain road is the main road of Kaoshan Village. Although it climbs up, it is very gentle. When we reach the middle of the mountain, we suddenly feel a bright light in front of us. A huge platform appears in front of everyone, and this is where the crowd in Kaoshan Village is the most crowded.
Concentrated settlements.
This platform is halfway up the mountain. At a glance, it looks like a giant ax has cut a groove in the middle of the mountain, and the villagers live concentratedly in this oval groove.
Looking up is a nearly flattened mountain peak, and at the foot is actually the fracture surface of the mountain peak. Zhou Xiaolin stood here, looking around in surprise, and couldn't help but sigh, "Comrades, this is really a human miracle like Foolish Old Man moving mountains. Our
The people actually cut off the mountains and built their own homes in the middle of the mountains. It’s not easy!”
"This comrade in the town, if I'm not wrong, Kaoshan Village has a long history of thriving and living. This kind of living and living project is definitely not something that can be completed in one generation! A miracle, really a miracle!"
Zhang Zhijun hurried over and said with a smile, "Yes, Secretary Zhou, according to the county records, Kaoshan Village has been a village since the Han and Tang Dynasties, and it has a history of several thousand years... and our family's genealogy also records that when we
My ancestors came to Ningshan from the Central Plains to avoid the war in the late Qin Dynasty, and found such a settlement in the mountains. After generations of ancestors opened up, today's backing village was established..."
"Back then, the little devils came to Kaoshan Village for raids. They wanted to turn Kaoshan Village into artillery towers, but were later driven out of the mountainous area by the Eighth Route Army..."
Zhang Zhijun smiled and told Zhou Xiaolin and others "historical anecdotes about Kaoshan Village." Zhou Xiaolin glanced at him and said with a faint smile, "You, comrade, are also from Kaoshan Village?"
"Yes, Secretary Zhou, my family is from Kaoshan Village, and my parents still live in Kaoshan Village." Zhang Zhijun replied with a respectful nod.
…
…
Because a senior official came to inspect the village, the villagers who were notified at short notice were strictly ordered to stay at home and were not allowed to go out. Although Zhou Xiaolin and his party walked around the village, they did not see many villagers.
Finally, Zhou Xiaolin proposed to go to the farmer's house to take a look. Zhang Zhijun agreed and took Zhou Xiaolin and his party to his parents' home.
As soon as Zhou Xiaolin and others entered the door, they smelled the tangy fragrance of boiled mutton. Zhou Xiaolin laughed, turned around and said loudly to Yu Jiangang and Kong Yan, "Comrades, it seems that we came early rather than in good time. It seems that we came early."
The crowd is preparing dinner..."
In the quiet courtyard of Zhang Zhijun's parents' home, a pot of hot whole sheep is tumbling on an earthen clay stove. Zhang Zhijun's parents are waiting side by side respectfully at the gate, while his two brothers are walking in and out.
As we were busy, an old Eight Immortals table was placed in the courtyard, filled with farm food.
Zhou Xiaolin chuckled and took the initiative to shake hands with Zhang Zhijun's parents and said, "Old man, we came at an unlucky time and disturbed your meal. Haha, the food is so rich. Could it be that there are guests at home today?"
Zhang Zhijun's parents are farmers who were born and raised in mountain villages. They have never left the county town in their lives. They have never seen such a high-ranking official as the secretary of the provincial party committee. Although he shook hands with Zhou Xiaolin, his heart was excited and flustered, his mouth was trembling, and he could not say a word.
Don't say it out loud.
On the other hand, Zhang Zhijun's brother-in-law was a bit bold and bold as a peasant woman. She stood aside and suppressed her timidity and whispered, "We have a guest at home, and the guest is Secretary Zhou! My eldest brother said that Secretary Zhou is coming.
Let’s see if we can keep a distinguished guest like Secretary Zhou here to eat at a farm in the mountains!”
Zhou Xiaolin was startled, then came to his senses, looked back at Zhang Zhijun and said with a smile, "Is this the home of Mayor Zhang's parents? Haha, you comrade..."
Zhang Zhijun chuckled, but actually didn't dare to say anything. He knew in his heart that it was no longer suitable for him to speak at this time.
At this time, Feng Botao walked forward with a smile and said loudly, "Secretary Zhou, since you have come to the mountains, let's have a farmer's meal at a people's home. Just now, several comrades in the county asked me for instructions and said that it was not easy for the leaders of the provincial party committee to
Come to the mountains and stay for some farm food... Secretary Zhou, the people in the mountains are very welcoming. They have slaughtered all the sheep before you come here. I think you may want to do as you please this time..."
Zhang Zhijun smiled respectfully, "Secretary Zhou, leaders, since the leaders have come to Kaoshan Village and are at my house, let me, the guest as the host, have a farm meal... It's all ordinary farm food, cooked.
Chicken eggs, wild vegetable dumplings, millet pancakes, stick batter, whole lamb soup... Please give leaders a try!"
Zhou Xiaolin smiled and looked back at Yu Jiangang and Kong Yan, "Comrades, how about we stay and try the farm food?"
Yu Jiangang smiled and said, "Well, Secretary Zhou, this whole lamb tastes very good. As soon as I walked in, a smell hit my nose. Don't tell me, it really aroused some greed in my stomach.
insect!"
Kong Yan also smiled and nodded, "Secretary Zhou, Lao Yu, I think I'll just stay here to chat with you for a meal... and at the same time chat with the crowd! It's good."
Zhou Xiaolin then chuckled and waved his hand, "Okay, since everyone agrees, then we will stay... but we can't let the old man spend money - so, Comrade Bo Tao, this meal is our working meal, how about we
Let’s all chip in and pay for the food!”
Feng Botao responded with a smile, but in fact, this kind of words were just polite words from the leader. Even if Secretary Zhou really wanted to "collect some money" to pay for the food, would Feng Botao and the county dare to collect it?
However, Feng Botao still secretly asked Zhang Qiang to let the county handle the matter. After all, for the poor backing villagers, slaughtering a sheep and preparing such a seemingly simple farm meal is actually a big burden.
.
According to Zhou Nan's instructions, Zhang Ningning did not leave Ningshan immediately. At the same time, he ordered his subordinates to stay in the county for the time being and wait and see what happens.
In the evening, news came from the provincial capital that the Ningzhou Public Security Bureau had released Zhang Xiao. At the same time, a deputy director came to apologize in person, admitting that the Public Security Bureau had made mistakes in its law enforcement work, and repeatedly implored Sky Group to
We understand this and stated that we will severely punish those responsible.
Although Zhou Xiaolin, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, did not come forward directly regarding this matter, he gave an order to Yu Jiangang, Secretary-General of the Provincial Party Committee, to find out the truth of the problem as soon as possible. Yu Jiangang directly called the Secretary of the Provincial Political and Legal Committee and conveyed the message to Zhou Xiaolin, the Secretary-General of the Provincial Party Committee.
The secretary's instructions. Zhou Xiaolin's secretary called Ma Mingtao, secretary of the Ningzhou Municipal Law Committee and director of the Public Security Bureau.
Ma Mingtao was shocked. The reason why he dared to "detain" Zhang Xiao was because of the pressure from Chen Xiaoning's father. But the pressure from Chen Xiaoning's father, an insignificant deputy ministerial cadre, was compared with the supreme authority from the provincial party committee secretary Zhou Xiaolin.
That means nothing at all.
Yu Jiangang, Secretary-General of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, came forward, and the Secretary and Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee cooperated. This level of "interference" put tremendous pressure on the Ningzhou Municipal Public Security Bureau.
This means that Sky Group has the Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee as its backer... Is that okay? Ma Mingtao did not dare to neglect anything, and quickly asked people to "organize" Zhang Xiao's case, withdraw the false "accusations", and not only immediately released Zhang Xiao,
He also sent a deputy to the house to apologize.
The Ningzhou Municipal Public Security Bureau made an in-depth written inspection to the Municipal Law Committee and the Provincial Political and Legal Committee, and three police officers responsible for handling the case were suspended for review.
The originally "complicated" case was "clarified" in the shortest possible time, and three provincial party committee leaders actually intervened in Zhang Xiao's case... This is where the authority of the provincial party committee secretary lies.
After Zhang Xiao was released, he immediately rushed back to Haidu and asked Haidu projects to be temporarily suspended. Then Zhang Xiao called Zhang Ningning. The brother and sister talked on the phone for nearly half an hour and learned that it was because of the provincial party committee.
Secretary Zhou's "attention" freed him from prison, and Zhang Xiao couldn't help but feel a little grateful to Zhou Nansheng.
The "fake work stoppage and real complaint" plan launched by Zhou Nan and Zhang Ningning today is actually very bold, and the process and techniques are very clever.
Zhou Nan knew that Zhou Xiaolin came here to support Ningshan County as a model for poverty alleviation work, and the investment promotion work in Ningshan, a poor county, was an important part of it. Therefore, in the face of this unexpected situation, Zhou Xiaolin could not help but
Q. Even if it’s for his personal face as the secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, he will not turn a blind eye.
As long as Zhou Xiaolin intervenes, Zhang Xiao's "grievance" will be "revealed" naturally. No matter how courageous the Ningzhou Municipal Public Security Bureau is, it does not dare to confront the provincial party secretary. Don't say that Zhang Xiao has no problem, it is intended to frame him.
Even if Zhang Xiao had some small problems like this, they would turn them into minor issues.
Of course, in order to ensure his own safety, Zhang Xiao finally decided to temporarily let Sky Group withdraw from the provincial capital Ningzhou.
After Zhang Ningning talked to Zhang Xiao on the phone, she immediately ordered all subordinates to return to the construction site overnight, summon all workers to resume construction, and prepare for the overnight inspection tomorrow by the provincial party committee leaders and his party.
The meeting room of the Ningshan County Party Committee was filled with smoke. Municipal Party Committee Secretary Feng Botao and Mayor Ma Liguo were sitting there with gloomy faces and smoking cigarettes. Several leaders in the county also looked unsightly and were restless.
Although the atmosphere of the farm meal tonight at Zhang Zhijun's parents' house in Kaoshan Village was very good, and it could be seen that Zhou Xiaolin was indeed quite satisfied, but after all, most of these projects in the county were invested by Sky Group, and now Sky Group suddenly had an accident and was preparing to suspend construction.
, how will Secretary Zhou’s investigation continue tomorrow? How will he explain it to the leaders of the provincial party committee?
Therefore, after Zhou Xiaolin and other leaders entered the reception room and began to rest, Municipal Party Committee Secretary Feng Botao and Mayor Ma Liguo immediately summoned county cadres to hold an impromptu meeting to study.
Feng Botao raised his wrist to look at his watch, stubbed out the cigarette butt in his hand, looked at Zhang Qiang who looked embarrassed and frightened, and said calmly, "Zhang Qiang, has Comrade Zhou Nan come back? How is his communication with Sky Group? No matter what
, even if we have to suspend work, we have to wait until the leaders of the provincial party committee leave!"
Zhang Qiang was about to say something when suddenly the door of the conference room was pushed open and Zhou Nan appeared in front of him.
"Secretary Feng, Mayor Ma, all leaders..." Zhou Nan let out a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Fortunately, it is an unexpected blessing."
"Oh? Tell me quickly." Zhang Qiang's eyes lit up and he urged.
"Secretary Feng, Mayor Ma, Secretary Zhang, there was news from Sky Group just now that Zhang Xiao, chairman of Sky Group, has been released by the Public Security Bureau under the leadership of the Provincial Political and Legal Committee... This was originally a misunderstanding...
…So, Sky Group Chairman Zhang Xiao ordered all Sky Group project departments in Ningshan to resume construction immediately. I just came back from Mr. Zhang of Sky Group. Several project personnel have returned to the construction site, and the workers are preparing overnight to welcome the provincial government tomorrow.
The leaders of the commission inspected..."
Zhou Nan thought to himself, even if Zhang Xiao is not released today, he will still ask Zhang Ningning to arrange for the resumption of construction. After all, if the provincial party secretary and his party are really to be "exposed", not to mention the city leaders, even if he is in charge
County leaders will also be unable to bear the burden and walk around in circles.
Zhang Qiang breathed a sigh of relief and sat back on the chair.
When Feng Botao heard this, he slammed the table with excitement, "Okay, very good. Lao Ma, we will rush over immediately to report this to Secretary-General Yu. Secretary Zhou's inspection activities tomorrow will be as usual..."
…
…
Feng Botao and Ma Liguo rushed to the reception desk of the county party committee to report to the provincial party committee secretary-general Yu Jiangang. In fact, they did not need to report. At this time, Yu Jiangang also received news that Zhang Xiao, chairman of Sky Group, had been released.
As the leader of the provincial party committee, he has done everything he should do. If Ningnan City and Ningshan County still can't do the next thing well and can't allow the project to resume construction, it can only mean that they are "unable to survive themselves."
.
Looking at the backs of Feng Botao and Ma Liguo hurriedly leaving in the car, Zhang Qiang, secretary of the county party committee, stood in the dark night and sighed, "Old Sun, Comrade Zhou Nan, what happened today is really shocking to me! If... I really can't imagine it.
, what a bad impression the provincial party committee leaders will leave on Ningshan County!"
"Come on, let's go to Secretary Zhang's office. Comrade Zhou Nan, the leaders are not here now. You should tell us what is going on! Which prince in the province did Zhang Xiao of Sky Group offend? How did he get into such a mess!
"Sun Xiang also sighed, waved his hand and lowered his voice.
Zhou Nan was silent for a while, then said calmly, "It's Vice Chairman Chen of the Provincial Political Consultative Conference, the former mayor of Ningzhou City. His son Chen Xiaoning has established a Heilan Group. Recently, he has been racing around the province and is extremely arrogant.
