Chapter 2234 Joint Investigation Team Leader

"I think we should set up a joint investigation team of the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, and the Discipline Inspection Commission must also get involved. You all know whether there is corruption behind this matter. There is no need to pretend to be ignorant." Xie Zhiguo's words basically settled the matter.

"Then I propose that Qin Feng be appointed as the leader of the investigation team and be fully responsible for the investigation of this incident." Liu Xiaoping made this suggestion without much hesitation after Xie Zhiguo finished speaking.

It is certain that Qin Feng will lead the investigation. This was Hu Guangxiang's suggestion and Xie Zhiguo's decision. With Xie Zhiguo's political wisdom and his identity as the municipal party secretary, no matter how the discussion goes and what suggestions Liu Xiaoping and Duan Hongyu put forward, it will definitely end with Xie Zhiguo announcing that Qin Feng will be the head of the investigation team.

What Qin Feng didn't expect was that the person who first proposed that he be the leader of the investigation team was not Xie Zhiguo, but Liu Xiaoping.

Hearing this, Qin Feng lit up his third cigarette.

It was not just Qin Feng who was smoking one cigarette after another, everyone was smoking non-stop. Leaders at this level either did not smoke at all or were heavy smokers. Just like at this moment, the entire conference room was filled with smoke.

While smoking, Qin Feng carefully thought about why Liu Xiaoping suddenly proposed that he be the leader of the investigation team. This was very strange.

"Reason?" Xie Zhiguo was obviously stunned for a moment, then asked Liu Xiaoping.

"Since this is a joint investigation team of the municipal party committee and government, naturally no one is more suitable than Qin Feng to be the leader of this investigation team. Moreover, Qin Feng just handled the Tai'an County incident almost perfectly. His ability and experience are obvious to all."

"Besides, before the matter is thoroughly investigated, the rank of the leader of the investigation team cannot be too high, otherwise it would appear that they are guilty. It cannot be too low, otherwise it would appear that we do not take it seriously. Therefore, Qin Feng, a member of the Municipal Party Committee and Executive Vice Mayor, is the most suitable."

"To sum up, I think Qin Feng is the most suitable candidate." Liu Xiaoping gave a lot of reasons.

Although Qin Feng still hasn't figured out why Liu Xiaoping pushed him to the position of team leader, he has to admire Liu Xiaoping's eloquence and thinking ability. No one can refute this set of reasons. After all, every word Liu Xiaoping said is true. To be honest, there is no one more suitable to be the team leader than him.

Of course, no one thought of refutation of Liu Xiaoping's proposal.

Xie Zhiguo turned to look at Duan Hongyu: "Comrade Hongyu, what do you think?"

As the top leader, how to ask questions and the order of asking opinions are very particular. If Xie Zhiguo disagrees with Liu Xiaoping's proposal, Xie Zhiguo will directly raise objections. If Xie Zhiguo supports Liu Xiaoping's suggestion, he will turn to ask Duan Hongyu. Although Xie Zhiguo did not say his opinion, he has actually clearly stated his opinion.

"I also support Comrade Qin Feng to serve as the head of the investigation team, but the investigation team must be under the leadership of the Municipal Party Committee and report the progress of the investigation to the Municipal Party Committee at any time," said Duan Hongyu.

Duan Hongyu supported Qin Feng because of Xie Zhiguo's face, and emphasized that the investigation team must accept the leadership of the Municipal Party Committee, which means that they do not believe in Qin Feng's identity as the executive vice mayor of the government.

On the surface, this matter was handled by a joint investigation team set up by the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, but in fact, everyone knew that the Municipal Party Committee was preparing to investigate the Municipal Government and put all the blame on the Municipal Government.

Xie Zhiguo nodded and asked others: "Does anyone have any different opinions?"

Xie Zhiguo's question was actually just a symbolic question. Things that the three big bosses have already decided on have basically been settled. Even if other people have different opinions, it will be of no use. Therefore, no one would be stupid enough to do such a meaningless and offensive thing.

"Since everyone supports it, then Qin Feng will be the leader of the investigation team, and we will change the name of this incident to the 512 incident."

"After the meeting, an investigation team will be set up immediately and required to begin the investigation overnight. The matter must be investigated quickly and strictly. No matter which unit or person is involved, we must get to the bottom of it." Xie Zhiguo said this to Qin Feng.

Qin Feng nodded. This was his first expression at this meeting.

"The municipal party committee and government issued a notice overnight, announcing the establishment of an investigation team to thoroughly investigate the matter. The propaganda department will follow up in a timely manner, announce the progress of the investigation to the outside world, and guide public opinion..." Xie Zhiguo then announced the specific matters of the investigation team, and Qin Feng began to take notes with a workbook.

There is an anomaly in the system: small meetings are held for big matters and big meetings are held for small matters. Also, the more important and urgent the matter, the shorter the meeting time. Just like today, the entire meeting was completed in less than half an hour. After the meeting, the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government jointly issued an order to establish a joint investigation team. At the same time, the relevant departments of the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government notified the relevant units and personnel of the investigation team, and established a joint investigation team overnight. At Qin Feng's request, an emergency meeting was held in the Municipal Party Committee's conference room an hour later.

Qin Feng did not leave the Municipal Party Committee, but sat directly in the office of Secretary-General Tang Yun.

Although the meeting was over, Tang Yun, as the secretary general of the municipal party committee, naturally could not go back to rest as such a big thing had happened. Moreover, at Duan Hongyu's suggestion, although Tang Yun did not participate in the work of the investigation team, he required the investigation team to report to Tang Yun at any time. In other words, Tang Yun represented the Municipal Party Committee to supervise the work of the investigation team. After all, Duan Hongyu still did not trust Qin Feng.

"Liu Xiaoping's tactic of retreating to advance is very powerful." Tang Yun said as he handed Qin Feng a cigarette.

"How to say?"

"He knows that since Secretary Xie and Secretary Hongyu have reached a consensus, he has no room for resistance, so he took a step back and pushed you to this position. Although you, Qin Feng, are Secretary Xie's direct subordinate, you are the executive vice mayor of the municipal government after all. If your investigation puts all the blame on the municipal government, it would be tantamount to suicide, so he is certain that you will not be able to conduct the investigation completely in accordance with the requirements of the Municipal Party Committee." Tang Yun smiled.

"Although he doesn't want me to lead the investigation, because he knows very well that I was the one who leaked this matter to Secretary Xie, which shows my attitude. But when he has no choice, he would rather choose me than let Duan Hongyu or Secretary Luo Yi lead the investigation." Qin Feng nodded. He also figured out what Liu Xiaoping was thinking.

"I can guess what Liu Xiaoping is thinking, but I don't quite understand what you are thinking?" Tang Yun asked with a smile.
