At the same time, in Xinlang County, another battle without gunpowder is also starting.
The overall commander of this battle was Xia Bicheng, director of the Provincial Local Taxation Bureau.
After Xia Bicheng convened a joint meeting with members of the Provincial Bureau's inspection team and the Provincial Discipline Inspection Commission's inspection team at noon yesterday, Xu Fei, in accordance with the scheduled plan, ordered Zhang Dongfang, the chief of the Municipal Bureau's Political and Engineering Section, to hold a meeting in Xinleng Guo Yu, Chief of the Third Taxation Section, and Zhan Peng, Deputy Chief, were the three persons responsible for approving and investigating the Zhenxing Steel Company's tax reduction report. They were summoned to the Xinlang County Local Taxation Bureau and were immediately taken away by members of the Provincial Discipline Inspection Commission's inspection team. And announced the Shuanggui decision to them.
Since the Provincial Bureau's inspection team arrived in Xinleng, through Li Botang's report, Zhang Dongfang, Guo Yu and others had long felt that the Provincial Bureau suddenly sent an inspection team to check the tax issues of the Zhenzheng Steel Plant. It must be a bad person. Therefore, , these few people who have benefited a lot from the tax reduction and exemption for revitalizing steel plants in the past two years have been in a state of panic and anxiety these days, although Li Botang kept comforting them, saying that everything would be done. Under his control, it was impossible for the inspection team to find out any tax fraud issues, but they were still suspicious. For several days, they almost didn't think about food or drink, and they were exhausted.
Especially Zhang Dongfang, when he was the deputy director of Xinleng, he happened to be in charge of the taxation department for the first two years and was also the first person responsible for tax reduction and exemption approval. In those two years, he and Li Li, the top leader of the Xinleng County Bureau at the time, Li colluded with each other and greeted the cadres of the First Branch and the Tax Affairs Section, asking them not to take it too seriously when investigating the tax reduction and exemption of Zhenxing Iron and Steel Company, and to report it as soon as possible as long as the information was complete. To this end, he accepted Li Botang's "facilitation fee" of up to Over one million yuan.
Guo Yu, chief of the third taxation section of the municipal bureau, and Zhan Peng, deputy chief, each received two to three hundred thousand yuan in bribes.
It was precisely because these three people had been harboring evil intentions in the past few days that when they were taken to a small hotel in Xinleng for interrogation by the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, they only had two or three rounds of confrontation before they all collapsed. Before midnight, These three people all confessed that they colluded with Li Botang and Li Li, fabricated false tax exemption information to defraud the state, and then accepted huge benefits from the company.
Among them, Zhang Dongfang also took the initiative to confess the illegal and criminal facts of accepting two million yuan in bribes from other taxpayers alone or together with Li Li when he was the deputy director of the Xinleng Local Taxation Bureau.
As Xu Fei expected, among the three people, Zhan Peng, the deputy section chief of the third section who specifically handled the tax reduction and exemption procedures for the Zhenxing Company and was responsible for the municipal bureau's tax reduction and exemption investigation, ordered him to destroy the original tax reduction and exemption information after Guo Yu. When replacing a new copy of the laid-off workers' preferential certificate, because he was worried that he would be too responsible and that he would be severely punished if he was investigated and punished in the future, he secretly made a copy of the original materials behind Guo Yu's back and He made a copy in his own USB flash drive, so he still has a paper version of the original data and an electronic version of the original data.
When being interrogated, in order to merit merit, he couldn't wait to hand over these original materials...
When Zhang Dongfang, Guo Yu, and Zhan Peng were taken away for interrogation by the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, Li Botang and his son, who were ignorant of the matter, were in the ecstasy of victory.
Starting yesterday afternoon, good news came one after another: last night, he received a call from Wang Hai, Secretary-General of the Provincial Party Committee. On the phone, Wang Hai told him excitedly: This afternoon, Provincial Party Committee Secretary Lu Zhiyao suddenly held a meeting At a standing committee meeting, he proposed a special discussion on the Xinleng 5.16 major case and tried to exonerate Ye Ming, who was involved in the case. However, Lu Zhiyao's proposal was firmly rejected by Comrade Zhou Jiqing, secretary of the Political and Legal Committee. At the same time, Comrade Zhou Jiqing also reiterated that Ye Ming is the key suspect in the 5.16 murder case, and decisive measures must be taken against him, including detaining him and arresting him, in order to successfully detect Xinleng, a major gang-related case. With Comrade Zhou Jiqing's insistence, Next, Lu Zhiyao had no choice but to announce the adjournment of the meeting in advance...
When he said this, Wang Hai smiled a little proudly on the phone and said: "Mr. Li, this afternoon's Standing Committee meeting is likely to become a watershed: starting from today, Lu Zhiyao feels the influence of our side. Strength, and today he was contradicted by Comrade Jiqing. His authority was challenged and his dignity was bruised. In the minds of other members of the Standing Committee, it will definitely leave an impression of cowardice and lack of opinion. From now on, he may Slowly give in to us and slowly accept the leadership structure with Governor Qin as the core. When we gradually destroy or squeeze out Li Runji and others, Lu Zhiyao will become a loner. Then, he will The time he will stay in Tianjiang Province will not be long. I estimate that his final outcome is probably to go back to the capital and take a leisurely deputy position at the National People's Congress or the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, waiting for retirement to enjoy life. Old age, hahaha,"
Li Botang also laughed dryly along with him, and followed his tone and said: "Secretary-General Wang, Secretary Zhou is such a man, so courageous. After all, Lu Zhiyao is also the top leader of the provincial party committee. How dare Secretary Zhou dare to do so today?" He was criticized in person, and Lu Zhiyao had to announce the suspension of the Standing Committee meeting he proposed. How much courage and courage does this take? I admire you, I admire you,"
Wang Hai said: "Mr. Li, Comrade Zhou Jiqing has such courage today because he has Governor Qin behind him, Minister Xie and my comrades supporting him. Without us supporting him and emboldening him, he would be so fierce." If you rush to contradict the provincial party secretary, he will suffer disaster sooner or later, what do you think?"
"That's it, that's it, there are three stakes in one fence and three gangs in one hero. The strength of the alliance is still greater,"
The second good news Li Botang received was that the members of the Xinleng 5.16 task force who sympathized with Ye Ming had been removed from the task force by Zhou Jiqing's order and returned to their original work units. I heard that they would also Disciplinary measures were taken against them, and the newly added members of the task force were all close associates of Zhou Jiqing, Yan Lian and others. From then on, the task force could focus on dealing with Ye Ming and his backers in a coordinated manner. .
As for the third piece of good news, Li Botang and his son were even more delighted: Yan Lian told them that the 5.16 task force had decided to take criminal detention measures against Ye Ming, and had contacted the Xinlang County People's Procuratorate this afternoon to get it done. Ye Ming's criminal detention procedures are planned to be transferred to the Xinlang County Detention Center at 9 o'clock tomorrow morning. His arrest procedures are also being processed as quickly as possible.
