pinnacle of power

Liu Qingyu first reported the death of Sun Haiping to Shen Hongfei in detail, and then he told Zhao Ximing his instructions again. After speaking, Liu Qingyu concluded: "Secretary Shen, I think it is not suitable for director of the Public Security Bureau like Zhao Ximing to continue to sit in the position of director of our Luming City Public Security Bureau, because so far, since I took office, so many things have happened in Luming City Basically, nothing is settled by him, the director of the Public Security Bureau, but by me and other comrades. For such a director of the Public Security Bureau, who seeks advantages and avoids disadvantages, what do we want from him? Yes, especially this time, if the case cannot be solved before 9 o'clock tomorrow morning, all our previous efforts to rescue the stock market of the Luming Shipyard will come to naught. At this critical moment, how can a director of the Public Security Bureau not A little bit of responsibility? At this time, he still told me to do his best and do his best. Such a person is not enough to accept such a heavyweight position as the director of the Public Security Bureau. Of course, I also intend to give him one last chance. Let's see if he can catch it."

Hearing what Liu Qingyu said, Shen Hongfei frowned slightly. He now understood Liu Qingyu's true intentions. Obviously, Liu Qingyu wanted to touch Zhao Ximing, but he was worried that he, the secretary of the municipal party committee in charge of personnel affairs, would think too much about it. , so pulling himself over on the one hand can be regarded as finding a reasonable excuse for his moving action, and at the same time, it will not make himself feel bad.

Shen Hongfei is very satisfied with Liu Qingyu's approach, because from this point of view, at least Liu Qingyu has no barbaric idea of ​​directly intervening in personnel work, everything he does now is based on actual work, If I set up obstacles for Liu Qingyu at this time, I am afraid that not only will Liu Qingyu feel dissatisfied with him, but it may even lead to the failure of the city government's rescue operation. At that time, I will also have to bear the responsibility. After the higher-ups knew the truth about the failure of the matter, they would find it difficult to absolve themselves of the blame if they pursued the cause. Therefore, in this matter, no matter whether it was public or private, he really had to support Liu Qingyu.

And to be honest, Shen Hongfei also has some doubts about Zhao Ximing's ability to work. After all, since he took office, many things have indeed happened in Luming City, and Zhao Ximing's performance in this series of incidents is not perfect. As expected.He also had the idea of ​​replacing Zhao Ximing for a long time, but he couldn't find a suitable candidate for the director of the Public Security Bureau for a while, so this matter was put on hold for the time being.

Wanting to understand this question, Shen Hongfei said with a smile: "Okay, Comrade Liu Qingyu, who do you plan to promote to be the director of the bureau?"

This is why Shen Hongfei is going to test Liu Qingyu. If Liu Qingyu really wants to promote a person from his camp, then Shen Hongfei will definitely come up with some backers.

Liu Qingyu's answer was beyond Shen Hongfei's expectations: "Secretary Shen, I don't know who should be promoted, but I think there is one most basic principle for the position of director of the Public Security Bureau, that is, Those who are capable will go up, and those who are mediocre will go down. If you have no ability, courage, and responsibility, don’t be the director of the Public Security Bureau!”

Hearing what Liu Qingyu said, Shen Hongfei's appetite was immediately lifted by Liu Qingyu. He really wanted to know what Liu Qingyu wanted to do next, so he said with a smile: "Okay, the principle you mentioned Very good, not only the position of director of the Public Security Bureau, any official position in our Luming City will be implemented from now on. Serving the people, if you can’t do this, get the hell out of here! We in Luming City don’t support idlers and officials!”

Hearing that Shen Hongfei, who is always gentle and elegant, uttered foul language, Liu Qingyu showed a faint smile on his face, applauded lightly and said: "Okay, Secretary Shen scolded me very well, let's go, let's go to the city together Take a look at the government, I guess those people from the Public Security Bureau should be here by this time."

Afterwards, Liu Qingyu and Shen Hongfei came to the meeting room of the municipal government together.

When they came, Zhao Ximing, the director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, had rushed to the meeting room with several deputy directors.

When they saw Liu Qingyu and Shen Hongfei appearing together, everyone's faces were a little shocked, because this time, only Liu Qingyu and the secretary of the municipal party committee appeared, and there was no other member of the standing committee. This situation was a bit strange.

Liu Qingyu smiled and glanced at Zhao Ximing and the deputy bureau chiefs, and sat on one side of the conference table with Shen Hongfei, while Zhao Ximing and several deputy bureau chiefs sat on the other side.

Liu Qingyu said in a deep voice: "Today, the purpose of Secretary Shen and I calling everyone over is very simple, that is to give you one more chance at the end, Comrade Zhao Ximing, I want to ask Comrade Zhao Ximing, can you Make sure to find the driver responsible for Comrade Sun Haiping’s car accident before 9 o’clock tomorrow.”

Zhao Ximing pondered for a moment, but still said with a determined face: "Secretary Shen, Mayor Liu, with all due respect, Mayor Liu only gave us 12 hours to investigate such a carefully planned car accident. An impossible task, and I don't think we can do it."

Liu Qingyu looked gloomy, and said in a cold tone: "Are you sure?"

"I'm sure. I don't think Sherlock Holmes will be able to solve this case even if he is alive." Zhao Ximing still has deep confidence in his ability to handle cases, and after a lot of analysis, he also found a clue that made him palpitate , It’s just that this clue is deeply hidden in his heart. He really doesn’t want the clue he discovered to be true, and even if the clue is true, he doesn’t have the courage and courage to pursue it, because then To do so would be in great danger to him personally.

Hearing what Zhao Ximing said, there was a sneer of disdain on the corner of Shen Hongfei's mouth. He was completely disgusted with Zhao Ximing's statement. He had already confirmed that Zhao Ximing was indeed not suitable for the position of director of the city bureau. stay up.

At this time, Liu Qingyu looked at Shen Hongfei and said: "Secretary Shen, you have heard Comrade Zhao Ximing's statement. I think Comrade Zhao Ximing is no longer suitable to continue working as the director of the Public Security Bureau."

Shen Hongfei nodded lightly: "You're right, then Comrade Zhao Ximing should be removed from the post of Director of the Public Security Bureau first. You, Liu Qingyu, will continue to preside over the rest of the matter."

Shen Hongfei's understatement directly decided Zhao Ximing's fate. After Zhao Ximing heard it, his eyes widened. Until now, he couldn't believe that Shen Hongfei agreed to Liu Qingyu's crazy proposal in such an understatement. Well, this is too irresponsible, right?He was just expressing his attitude on this matter, and he didn't believe that anyone could do it.

At this time, Liu Qingyu's eyes swept over the faces of the other city bureau deputy directors present, and then said in a deep voice: "Dear city bureau deputy directors, the position of director of the Luming City Public Security Bureau is now vacant. Now, the opportunities are equal for each of you. If any of you can solve this case within 12 hours, then Secretary Shen and I will make the decision and promote you to be the director of the Municipal Bureau. Of course Yes, any of you can take this task, but there is a price to pay for this task. If any of you accept this task, if you solve the case within 12 hours, the director must be yours, but if you can’t solve it If the case is not resolved, then your current deputy director position will be gone, and you will be dismissed directly and go home. How about it, everyone, is there anyone who dares to accept this challenge?"

While speaking, Liu Qingyu's eyes swept over the faces of several deputy bureau chiefs one by one, carefully observing the expressions of everyone.

Hearing that Liu Qingyu used this method to provoke several deputy directors, Shen Hongfei's face was full of shock.You know, as a secretary of the municipal party committee in charge of personnel, Shen Hongfei is well aware of the relevant procedures required to promote a public security bureau chief. Liu Qingyu's doing so is actually not very appropriate, but now, he really can't think of a better one. Liu Qingyu's method is a better way to solve the Sun Haiping car accident this time.

Shen Hongfei could only keep silent. He knew that Liu Qingyu had always been bold in doing things, and everything he did would often prove to be correct in the end, so he also hoped that Liu Qingyu could do it again this time. Create a miracle out.

Several deputy directors of the Public Security Bureau at the scene looked at each other, with different moods. Some people were really excited about the position of director of the Public Security Bureau, and as long as they solved the case, they could be promoted to the director. This is also a big temptation. Hard to resist.But the problem is that Liu Qingyu's last condition scares many people. Anyone who accepts the task dares to accept it, but if the task fails, he will be dismissed. This price is not everyone is willing to bear.Therefore, after everyone observed each other, many of them shook their heads bitterly. They would rather stay in this position and continue to be their own deputy director than take such a big risk to compete for the position of director. , in the eyes of professionals like them, solving a case within 12 hours is simply an impossible task.

Liu Qingyu's eyes swept over everyone again, and said lightly: "Why, don't any of you dare to stand up and challenge yourself and take responsibility?"

As soon as Liu Qingyu finished speaking, the deputy chief, Ai Kun, suddenly stood up with a firm expression on his face: "Mayor Liu, I want to try."

"You, try? Aren't you afraid that you will be dismissed if you fail the mission?" Liu Qingyu asked back.
