Chapter 1840 This is a political issue
"You asked the county committee to believe him, but in fact it means that you yourself don't believe that there is no problem at all, right?" Qin Feng asked with a smile.
If Cao Changsheng really believed that Wu Shanquan had no problem, then there was no need for him to plead for Wu Shanquan.
"Secretary, you also know that Yi'an is a remote and poor area. It is a place where people cannot stay. All the capable people have already found ways to leave Yi'an. There are not many capable people left."
"Among these capable people, even fewer have the courage."
"To develop, we need people who are bold and decisive. In this respect, Wu Shanquan is a rare talent."
"Wu Shanquan is not only capable and courageous, but also has a sense of gangsterism, or banditry. This is not a good quality in the upper echelons, but in our place, especially at the grassroots level, he can unite people well, and many people fall for this."
"So there are many things that others cannot do, but Wu Shanquan can do very well. Since he became the deputy county magistrate, he has tackled many tough problems for the county government, and he has made personal contributions." Cao Changsheng continued to speak well of Wu Shanquan.
"I understand what you mean, but County Magistrate, the key issue now is whether he has committed any illegal or criminal acts." Qin Feng said.
"I am also very clear about Wu Shanquan's abilities and the contributions he has made. But these are not reasons for him to commit crimes, nor are they excuses for him to evade investigation."
"I understand what you mean. You don't want the county committee to investigate him, but have you ever thought about it, County Magistrate? If he only violated the rules this time, the county committee's investigation of him would deepen their trust in him, give him a warning and urge him to better restrain himself and serve the people in the future."
"But if he really has committed serious violations of laws and disciplines, then the county committee's investigation into him is to recover the losses of the county committee and the people of the entire county."
"If he really has committed serious violations of laws and disciplines, your plea for him today is likely to harm him and the county party committee and government. If you continue to ignore his illegal behavior and continue like this, it will cause adverse effects. You cannot bear this responsibility, and neither can I."
"To be more specific, if he really violated laws and disciplines and embezzled money from poverty alleviation and agricultural industrialization work, then you should know the difference between his contribution and the losses he caused. If this is true, he is not our comrade, but our enemy."
"You also said something before. We have tried our best to get projects and funds from the higher-ups, but some people sit down and put all the money into their own pockets. Should we tolerate this kind of behavior? If we allow this and don't stop this trend, can our poverty alleviation and development work in Yian be successful?" Qin Feng asked Cao Changsheng a series of questions.
"Before you came, I thought about this issue for a long time. Based on my personal feelings and the work of your county government, I don't want to investigate Comrade Wu Shanquan."
"But from the perspective of the overall situation, we must investigate, and we must get to the bottom of Wu Shanquan's problems."
"If there is no problem with Wu Shanquan and it was just a violation of regulations, I will only handle this matter internally and let your county government criticize and educate you."
"But if Wu Shanquan really has committed serious violations of laws and disciplines, then I can only handle the matter impartially and deal with it seriously to serve as a warning to others. This is a matter of principle and even more a political issue." Qin Feng made his attitude clear.
"County magistrate, let me say something behind closed doors. Comrade Lu Yi was transferred from the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection and is an experienced discipline inspection cadre. Comrade Lu Yi has always worked on the discipline inspection front and has no experience in commanding the overall situation, let alone working on the economic development front."
"If Comrade Wu Shanquan really has committed illegal or disciplinary violations, it will be difficult for Comrade Lu Yi to pass that test." Qin Feng said to Cao Changsheng.
Qin Feng's meaning was very clear. Lu Yi was not promoted by him personally. He was from the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection. Qin Feng could influence him, but it was impossible for him to have such a deep influence on him as on other cadres in Yian.
Secondly, Luyi has always been working on the discipline inspection front and has no habit of considering the overall development. Therefore, it is unlikely that Luyi will give the green light to Wu Shanquan's criminal behavior because of the needs of economic development.
"In other words, if we forcibly cover up for Wu Shanquan this time, and if he gets into trouble in the future, how are you and I going to explain to the Municipal Party Committee? Can you and I bear this responsibility? You have to know that Wu Shanquan is not an ordinary cadre." Qin Feng reminded Cao Changsheng.
After listening to Qin Feng's words, Cao Changsheng fell into a long silence and finally nodded.
In fact, Cao Changsheng and Qin Feng both knew very well that there must be something wrong with Wu Shanquan, which is why they were discussing these topics today.
