Chapter 1776 Anti-Smuggling Bureau

Afterwards, everything went according to Liu Fusheng's plan and moved forward steadily.

Cai Qiming from the Chaojiang City Taxation Bureau secretly added fuel to the flames, making the Chaojiang District Door Industry and Lock Expo a successful event at the Convention and Exhibition Center.

The strength of this door and lock expo is unprecedentedly strong.

In addition to the various door and lock companies in Chaojiang area, many foreign businesses also came to the expo to promote their products, including many multinational corporations and overseas companies.

As the municipal party secretary, Liu Fusheng cannot miss such an opportunity.

He specially convened a leadership meeting of the three cities in Chaojiang for this purpose. All leaders of the three cities in Chaojiang, including Chaojiang Mayor Gu Hongcheng, Jiangtou Municipal Party Committee Secretary Chen Zixing, and Jiyang Municipal Party Committee Secretary Zhao Qiuwei, attended the meeting.

Liu Fusheng said: "The Chaojiang Door Industry and Locks Expo is the first event I have held since I came to Chaojiang. Here, I want to apologize to everyone. Although I have said that I will focus on arson cases and try to reduce my involvement in government affairs, it is still necessary for me to attend this occasion."

Gu Hongcheng and Chen Zixing quickly smiled and said a few polite words.

Because Liu Fusheng's approach was very reasonable, no matter what he agreed with the local leaders, as the top leader of the Chaojiang area, he had to take the lead in some public occasions.

Even now, Liu Fusheng's attitude is very humble, which makes Chen Zixing and Gu Hongcheng very useful.

They even thought that Liu Fusheng was being so polite to them because his offensive was frustrated and he had no confidence. It seemed that after being scolded by Hong Chengli, the airborne municipal party secretary, he also realized the complexity of governing the Chaojiang area.

Gu Hongcheng smiled and said, "Secretary Liu, an expo of this scale is a great opportunity for Chaojiang City's door and lock industries to showcase themselves. We can even develop the door and lock industries into mainstream industries in Chaojiang."

Chen Zixing also said: "Yes, Secretary Liu just arrived in Chaojiang and the Expo was successfully held. It is obvious that Secretary Liu has made great contributions to local governance. I think Secretary Liu should vigorously develop these two industries and will definitely achieve brilliant results."

Chen Zixing said this casually, as if he was telling Liu Fusheng that it was fine if he wanted to make political achievements in Chaojiang, but he had to leave quickly after making them and not delay the real development of Chaojiang City.

Liu Fusheng sighed and said, "I also want to make achievements earlier, but unfortunately, arson cases are too time-consuming."

Upon hearing this, Chen Zixing looked at Gu Hongcheng.

Gu Hongcheng smiled and said, "Secretary Liu, some things cannot be forced. The comrades of the special case team of the Ministry of Public Security have been in Chaojiang for so long and have not found any clues. Moreover, you have just arrived and you have to understand all the situations from scratch."

"In my opinion, you have personally led the police system of the three cities of Chaojiang to investigate this case. You have already taken the lead and devoted yourself to it. We really admire you. I believe that the top leaders of the country have also seen and taken your work attitude to heart..."

It's as if you didn't say anything when you said this cliché.

Liu Fusheng sighed, "Thank you Mayor Gu for your comfort. Secretary Zhao, why didn't you say anything?"

Zhao Qiuwei said: "You are the top leader of the three cities of Chaojiang. I think what you said makes sense. I just listen to it. I don't have any opinions to express. As for the door and lock exhibition, it is indeed very large. We need your presence, speech and strong support to smoothly carry out the event."

Liu Fusheng nodded and said, "Okay, then this matter is finalized. In addition, I have one more thing to tell you. I said before that the police systems of the three cities of Chaojiang will be temporarily deployed by me to facilitate the investigation of the arson case as soon as possible. Yesterday, I went to the special task force of the Ministry of Public Security. According to the clues they provided, the arson case may involve various problems of maritime smuggling. To be more precise, the tools used in the arson case may have been obtained through smuggling."

"This news reminds me that I requested a unified transfer of only the public security, procuratorial and judicial systems of the three cities in Chaojiang, but not the Anti-Smuggling Bureau... The main police force of the Anti-Smuggling Bureau in our Chaojiang area is all concentrated in Jiangtou City, so I want to discuss with Secretary Chen to see if the Anti-Smuggling Bureau can also be handed over to me for deployment."

Anti-smuggling Bureau?

Chen Zixing's eyes flickered and he remained silent.

Previously in Hongcun, Hai Changchun had reminded him to be careful of Liu Fusheng's various methods. Now Liu Fusheng actually wanted to target the Anti-Smuggling Bureau, which was tantamount to sidelining all other leaders at the law enforcement level.

The Anti-Smuggling Bureau is of vital importance, and Chen Zixing is well aware of how serious the smuggling situation is in the Chaojiang area.

In Hongcun alone, there is a large population engaged in smuggling activities. Once the Anti-Smuggling Bureau falls into Liu Fusheng's hands, the consequences will be disastrous.

"Secretary Chen, is there any inconvenience?" Liu Fusheng asked when he saw Chen Zixing didn't say anything.

Chen Zixing smiled and said, "Regarding the investigation of the arson case, the Anti-Smuggling Bureau is of course obliged to cooperate with Secretary Liu."

"However, the situation at the Anti-Smuggling Bureau is relatively complicated. In addition to handling cases, there is also a lot of daily work to be done. If all of it is assigned by Secretary Liu, there will be a lot of things involved, which will take up a lot of your energy."

Chen Zixing was beating around the bush and didn't want to give up his power.

But the purpose of Liu Fusheng's meeting was to take down the Anti-Smuggling Bureau.

As for the door and lock expo, it is just an excuse.

After listening to Chen Zixing's words, Liu Fusheng said with a smile: "What Secretary Chen said makes sense, but I think we must form a unified deployment to do things, otherwise there will definitely be problems in the coordination of all aspects."

"Of course, I will also take Secretary Chen's opinions into consideration. How about this, I will compile our differences into a draft opinion, and then make a report to Yanjing."

What?

Report to Yanjing?

Chen Zixing and Gu Hongcheng were both slightly stunned.

If you want to report, you should report to Guangdong Province, right?

How big a deal does it have to be to report to Yanjing?

It is obvious that they want to use the arson case to have Yanjing crack down on and suppress them.

Gu Hongcheng said: "Secretary Liu, I don't think this matter is suitable for submission to Yanjing."

"Why is it inappropriate?"

Liu Fusheng said: "The arson case in Jiangtou City is a major case that the state is investigating. In order to solve this case, we started discussing how the Anti-Smuggling Bureau should allocate resources. My request is that the Anti-Smuggling Bureau should be under my unified allocation before the case is solved. If you don't even cooperate with this, then it will be difficult to investigate the arson case."

"This..." Gu Hongcheng was stunned by the question.

The current situation is very clear. Liu Fusheng is using the arson case as a banner to suppress them mercilessly.

If they disagreed and the Anti-Smuggling Bureau was unified, then Liu Fusheng would put the blame on them for not being able to find a breakthrough in the arson case.
