At the next meeting of the Standing Committee, Liu Qifeng made a move. At the end of the meeting, he suddenly said: "Recently, someone reported to me some things about the Education Bureau, saying that the Education Bureau has arbitrary charges and a bad working attitude. There are other issues such as food and card requirements. There are also several reports that are more serious, saying that the main leaders of the Education Bureau have a corrupt life style, corruption and bribery. I believe that the Commission for Discipline Inspection should have received similar reports. Is that right? Secretary Fan!"

Fan Pingyuan, Secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, felt his heart skip a beat. Of course he had received Li Xiaoning's report letter. In fact, there were many report letters about Wu Liangde, not only Li Xiaoning's one, but because Wu Liangde and he belonged to Xue Guoping's group, he sent all of them without exception. It was forwarded to Wu Liangde, and no investigation had ever been conducted. Now that Liu Qifeng asked about it, I felt a headache.

But the secretary of the municipal party committee had to answer the question, so Fan Pingyuan had to cough a few times before he said slowly: "Reporting materials, the Discipline Inspection Commission has received some, but most of them are anonymous, because it is impossible to verify the content of the report with the informant. So these materials were not accepted.”

"You said most of them are anonymous, so there are always real-name reports, right? How do you deal with these reported materials?" Liu Qifeng asked, staring into Fan Pingyuan's eyes.

Fan Pingyuan had stabilized his mind at this time, and said solemnly: "There are also real-name reports, but these report letters are mostly speculative, and do not state the specific circumstances and evidence of the violation of laws and disciplines by the reported person. For example, the facts of violations of laws and disciplines The time and place of the occurrence, the insiders involved, the insiders' identities, units and contact numbers, relevant documentary evidence, etc. Especially when reporting economic problems, there is no detailed indication of the amount of violations of laws and disciplines, bank account numbers, etc. Therefore , For this part of the reporting materials, we first registered according to the content of the complaint letter, and then conducted an investigation and conversation with relevant comrades based on the people or things involved in the complaint."

Liu Qifeng thought to himself, if the whistleblower can grasp so much evidence, why do you need your disciplinary committee?But he also knew that when speaking to a cadre of Fan Pingyuan's level, he had to be cautious, so he nodded and said: "It seems that someone has indeed reported on the comrades in the Education Bureau, and it is a real-name report. It doesn't matter whether the content of the report is true or not. It’s better to be suspicious, hearsay or hearsay. I think it is necessary to organize relevant departments to conduct a joint investigation on the Education Bureau. It’s also good to block other people’s mouths, which is also good for the comrades in the Education Bureau.”

Xue Guoping has not spoken, but his brain is running at high speed.He has been an official in Binhai for many years. Basically, all government agencies and important positions in important state-owned enterprises have his people.However, Liu Qifeng had just arrived not long ago, and his power was relatively weak. Relatively speaking, he was not enough to pose much threat to him, Xue Guoping.Liu Qifeng has always been at a disadvantage, no matter in his deep network of connections in Binhai City or in the Municipal Standing Committee.

But since his cheating son made such a mess, Liu Qifeng took the opportunity to win over Hu Zhongqiang, the director of the Public Security Bureau. Now Hu Zhongqiang has also served as the secretary of the Political and Legal Committee and is a nonvoting member of the Standing Committee. In this way, Liu Qifeng has Tang Xuewen, the deputy secretary of the Standing Committee. Liu Qifeng was able to stand against Xue Guoping on some issues.

Now that Liu Qifeng proposed to investigate the Education Bureau, no matter how upright and high-sounding his words were, Xue Guoping could tell that Liu Qifeng was going to cut off Xue Guoping's tentacles again.No, Liu Qifeng's current round of attack must be resisted, and he must not make any more concessions. No matter what method he uses, he must keep Wu Liangde, the director of the education bureau.Otherwise, one's power will be eroded and consumed step by step.It's just... Liu Qifeng's proposal is reasonable, what should be done to stop it?

Xue Guoping felt that no matter what, he had to show his attitude first, and he couldn't make Liu Qifeng feel that he was easy to bully.He turned his eyes to Liu Qifeng, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said casually: "Comrade Qifeng, if you make such a big noise, it will burden the comrades below. Pay attention to the impact. Moreover, this matter is not It's on the agenda of the standing committee this time. You're making a surprise attack!"

Liu Qifeng didn't seem to understand the sarcasm in Xue Guoping's words, and said with a slight smile: "Just to investigate, isn't this kind of joint inspection organized every year in the city? It's nothing special. It just so happens that the standing committee members They are all here, so I will take this opportunity to talk about it. Comrade Guoping is thinking a little too much? Besides, if it turns out that there is nothing wrong with Wu Liangde after the investigation, he should be straighter. How can there be a psychological burden? Unless he I can't help but check."

A cold light flashed in Xue Guoping's eyes. From Liu Qifeng's words, he heard the determination to investigate Wu Liangde, and the confidence that he would be able to find out the problem. He didn't know where Liu Qifeng's confidence came from, nor did he I know why Liu Qifeng suddenly made such a big determination to start a war with himself.But he knew that he had always underestimated the nominal leader of Binhai City, and Liu Qifeng's expression was so determined.Xue Guoping secretly blamed himself for underestimating the enemy. If Liu Qifeng didn't have some courage and ability, how could he be able to play like a fish in water in this hidden dragon and crouching tiger officialdom?

Years of ups and downs in the officialdom have made Xue Guoping develop a deep sense of forbearance and forbearance. He has to calm himself down to deal with this sudden change.Now that Liu Qifeng had declared war, it was impossible to avoid it, so he had no choice but to try to win the battle.

Thinking of this, Xue Guoping said coldly: "Although this is the case, how can we not let people think too much when there are so many units and only one education bureau? Of course, Comrade Qifeng also said that it is because someone's real name The reason for the report. From my point of view, an investigation is definitely necessary, shouldn’t the informant also assist in the investigation? After all, the possibility of deliberate framing cannot be ruled out, right?”

Xue Guoping is using the strategy of "encircling Wei and saving Zhao". He knows very well that the person who reported Wu Liangde with his real name cannot be someone from his own interest group, and of course it may not be someone from Liu Qifeng, but this person must be protected by Liu Qifeng. Otherwise, Liu Qifeng would not have to mess around in Binhai officialdom in the future.He asked the whistleblower to assist in the investigation, not only to remind Liu Qifeng to weigh whether he could be willing to give up the vase of the whistleblower if he wanted to get rid of Wu Liangde's mouse; at the same time, he was testing Liu Qifeng.If Liu Qifeng intends to conceal the name of the whistleblower, it means that he is not completely sure of taking down Wu Liangde. , or he simply doesn't care about whistleblowers.

As soon as Xue Guoping finished speaking, Liu Qifeng said, "It's natural. In fact, everyone knows this whistleblower. He is Comrade Li Xiaoning who bravely rescued people a while ago. I have a certain understanding, and it is precisely because of his report that I feel that it is indeed necessary to organize a joint investigation of the Education Bureau."

After hearing Liu Qifeng's words, Xue Guoping's heart sank again. Of course he knew Li Xiaoning, and he knew very well that Li Xiaoning was greatly appreciated by Liu Qifeng. Liu Qifeng didn't keep Li Xiaoning's secrets at all, which meant that they had already grasped the truth. Certain evidence.It is impossible to stop the investigation of the Education Bureau now, because the two Standing Committee members who have always been neutral have obviously begun to lean towards Liu Qifeng, so they can only consider moving back to disadvantages from other aspects.

With the effort of picking up the teacup to drink water, Xue Guoping quickly made a decision in his mind, and said, "Comrade Li Xiaoning is a good comrade. I believe in his party nature and character. I agree with Comrade Qifeng's proposal to establish a joint investigation." The group should conduct a systematic and comprehensive investigation of the Education Bureau, focusing on actual results and not going through the motions."

Liu Qifeng originally thought that there was going to be a sharp debate, but he even thought of the worst - Xue Guoping firmly disagreed, and finally the Standing Committee voted.Unexpectedly, Xue Guoping suddenly had a 180-degree change in his attitude. He completely agreed with the investigation of Wu Liangde. He could no longer use the words he had thought up, so he nodded and said, "Since Comrade Guoping also agrees, I think the matter is settled like this." A joint investigation team will be formed by the Organization Department and the Commission for Discipline Inspection, and the investigation into education will begin today."

"I agree with Comrade Qifeng's opinion." Xue Guoping said with a straight face, "However, I suggest that the Municipal Party Committee Office and the Government Office should also be involved. There are more people to handle things."

Seeing that Xue Guoping "supported" him so much, Liu Qifeng felt embarrassed to argue with him, so he nodded and said, "Yes." But as soon as he finished speaking, he came to his senses, and unconsciously fell into Xue Guoping's trap again. Xue Guoping's proposal seemed fair, and both the municipal party committee and the government participated, but Duan Yonghong, secretary general of the municipal party committee office, was not actually Liu Qifeng's, but Xue Guoping's direct descendant.As a result, Xue Guoping has an absolute advantage in the composition of the investigation team.

"As for the candidate for the leader of the investigation team, I think Comrade Wei Jun will be in charge." Once Liu Qifeng found out that he had been cheated, he quickly tried to remedy it. Disappointed by myself.

But how could Xue Guoping make Liu Qifeng go his way? He said solemnly: "This joint investigation is of great importance. I think it is more appropriate for Comrade Qifeng to take charge in person. Then let Comrade Pingyuan be the deputy team leader in charge of the specific investigation work. He is the Secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, and he is even better at this kind of thing." After speaking, he winked at Song Gaoshan, the executive deputy mayor.

Song Gaoshan was clear about it, and immediately expressed his opinion: "I agree with Comrade Guoping's opinion, such an important matter must be in command of the leader himself." He deliberately only talked about Liu Qifeng as the team leader, and never mentioned Fan Pingyuan as the deputy team leader. , but the first sentence agrees with Xue Guoping's opinion, but Xue Guoping's opinion contains two contents.

Propaganda Minister Ma Minghai is not stupid either, and immediately said: "I also agree with Mayor Xue's opinion."

As soon as these two people talked, they pushed the matter they were discussing directly to the voting procedure. Xue Guoping had an advantage in the Standing Committee, and it was impossible for two neutral Standing Committee members to waste their brains on such trivial matters, so Xue Guoping made this decision. The opinion was easily voted through.

The joint investigation team headed by Municipal Party Committee Secretary Liu Qifeng and Secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection Fan Pingyuan as deputy team leader was formally announced.
