The working group of the Organization Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, led by Ma Yunshan, read out the emergency decision of the Central Committee at the Standing Committee, removing Duan Zetao from the Standing Committee of the Xishan Provincial Committee and Executive Vice Governor, returning to the capital to await further processing, and appointing Huang Zhengliang as a member of the Standing Committee of the Xishan Provincial Committee. , Executive Vice Governor, presides over the overall work of the provincial government.
This decision did not surprise Duan Zetao. When Ma Yunshan read out the emergency decision of the central government, he acted very calmly, but Wei Changzheng, who had always been very calm, seemed a little excited. He took Ma Yunshan's hand and said: "Yunshan Comrade, Comrade Duan Zetao has made very remarkable achievements since he took office in Xishan Province. The responsibility for this major mining accident lies with me, the leader of the Provincial Party Committee. I request the Central Committee to consider carefully, punish me, and remove me from the position of Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee. , let Comrade Duan Zetao stay, Xishan Province cannot do without Comrade Duan Zetao!..."
Ma Yunshan glanced at Wei Changzheng with some embarrassment, "Comrade Changzheng, you are an old comrade. You must understand that this is the decision of the central leadership and cannot be changed by you or me! Of course, I will take your opinions back... …”.
Wei Changzheng still wanted to fight for it, but Duan Zetao stood up and said movedly: "Secretary Wei, I accept your wishes. The central government's decision to deal with me is fair. I am willing to obey unconditionally. I only have one request, which is that I hope that I will implement I hope the industrial restructuring of Xishan Province can continue to be implemented, please everyone!..." He stood up and turned around and bowed deeply to the standing committee members of the Xishan Provincial Committee present.
The Standing Committee members all looked at Duan Zetao with great respect. Even Zhong Handing, the Organization Minister of the Provincial Party Committee, who had always been opposed to Duan Zetao, and others were a little moved. Luo Wei, Secretary of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, who had always had a stern face, also had moist eyes. An Weipeng, secretary of the Provincial Political and Legal Affairs Committee, who was born in the military and has an outspoken personality, even had tears in his eyes.
Duan Zetao left the conference room under the respectful eyes of the Standing Committee members and returned to his office to pack his personal belongings. Feng Jinbo and Zhou Junlong, who had been waiting anxiously outside the door, also quickly followed in and said excitedly: "Boss, you Take us with you, we can't bear to leave you!...".
Duan Zetao smiled bitterly. He had been dismissed. The next work arrangement had to wait for further decisions from the central government. How could he lead Feng Jinbo and Zhou Junlong away? He put down the items in his hands and forced a smile: "Jin Bo, Junlong, don't worry. I made an agreement with Secretary Wei and Governor Zhengliang before I left. Your positions will not change. Besides, what's the benefit of following me? There are no benefits, but hardship and criticism. A commonplace meal…”.
Feng Jinbo and Zhou Junlong already had tears in their eyes and choked with sobs: "Boss, you are the most respectable leader we have ever seen. As long as we follow you, no matter how hard or tiring we are, we are not afraid!...".
Duan Zetao was also a little moved, waved his hand and said: "Jinbo, Junlong, I know your loyalty to me, there is no banquet in the world, after I leave, you must work hard, be honest and self-disciplined like I am here, this is The best reward for me! I won’t say any more, remember to come and see me when you have time in the capital!..."
After packing up his personal belongings, Duan Zetao went out accompanied by Feng Jinbo and Zhou Junlong. As soon as he went out, he was shocked. The usually empty corridor was crowded with people, all of whom were provincial government staff. They looked at him with tears. By Duan Zetao.
"Governor Duan, we can't bear to leave you!..."
"Governor Duan, you have a pleasant trip!..."
…………
Duan Zetao's tears fell uncontrollably. He worked hard and worked hard to change the backwardness of Xishan Province, but in the end he ended up like this. It would be false to say that he had no grievances or resentments in his heart. It was the same story before.
He is strong, but at this moment all the grievances and resentments have disappeared, and justice is at home in people's hearts. The performance of these provincial government staff is the best evaluation of him!
With tears in his eyes, Duan Zetao shook hands with the provincial government staff who were named but not named, and were escorted out of the provincial government gate by them. Just as he was about to get in the car, he saw a police car speeding towards him.
Qiu Wei jumped out of the car, ran to Duan Zetao, and said excitedly: "Governor Duan, I have made a major discovery. The Xiejia'ao coal mine disaster was probably caused by man-made detonation! Explosive residue was extracted from the mine!...
”.
"What?!" Duan Zetao was shocked, and then thinking of his current embarrassing situation, he had to smile bitterly and patted Qiu Wei on the shoulder and said: "I am no longer the governor of Xishan Province. Hurry up and tell Wei Wei about this situation."
Secretary, please report to Governor Huang!..."
Only then did Qiu Wei know that Duan Zetao had been dismissed, and he immediately shouted angrily: "What kind of bullshit decision is this?! Even a good governor like you has been dismissed, so what motivation do we have to do anything?! I don't think so, either."
I quit!..." He took off his police hat and threw it to the ground!
"Qiu Wei! You are fooling again!" Duan Zetao glared at Qiu Wei and yelled angrily, then bent down to pick up Qiu Wei's police hat, flicked the dust off, and put it on Qiu Wei himself.
He said solemnly: "Qiu Wei, you have to remember that this police badge embodies the people's trust in the people's police. It cannot be thrown away at any time!...".
As he spoke, he patted Qiu Wei's shoulder hard and said with deep affection: "Do a good job! I have suggested to Secretary Wei that you should be promoted to the director of the Criminal Investigation Bureau of the Provincial Public Security Department! I hope that one day I can hear this from you in the capital.
The famous name of Detective Thunderbolt!...".
Qiu Wei, an iron-clad man, already had tears streaming down his face. He saluted Duan Zetao and watched Duan Zetao's car drive away before putting it down until he could no longer see it.
At this time, the radio in the car was broadcasting the news that Huang Youcheng was arrested by Shuanggui and Xie Youcai. Because it was still in the investigation and evidence collection stage, it was only now officially announced to the public. On both sides of the road, citizens were seen running straight out of the shops to bring
Firecrackers started to set off, they were celebrating the good news. Huang Youcheng and Xie Youcai, the two big tigers that were causing harm to Xishan, were finally killed!
Looking at the smiling citizens outside the car window, the corners of Duan Zetao's mouth curled up slightly. Thinking back to the few months he had been in Xishan, he had done some things. Of course, he still had many regrets. The industrial structure adjustment in Xishan Province had not yet been completed.
It has not been completely completed. The two emerging pillar industries of financial services and tourism have not yet been fully established. The implementation of the 'Four Coal Measures' still needs to be deepened. And... by the way, I don't know how to deal with the relationship with Ruoyan...
…
Duan Zetao then remembered that Shen Ruoyan was still staying at the Sheraton Hotel. He was so busy during this period that he didn't bother to see her. He quickly asked Hu Tielong to turn around and go to the Sheraton Hotel. However, when he asked at the front desk of the hotel, the waiter told Duan Zetao that Shen Ruoyan had withdrawn.
