Nominal: Who isn't a son-in-law?

"As you know, this whole thing started with Gu Wangbei and Nie Mingyu, and eventually implicated Li Zhixu. Aren't they all the same problem?"

Xu Haiming fell silent for a moment.

Le Tri Thu, Le Zongwu.

To be honest, he couldn't believe it at first when he heard the news.

"That's true, everyone knows that, but the unspoken rules of interpersonal relationships can't be completely blocked."

Xu Haiming sighed.

"So Team Leader Yu set the tone: investigating cases is the surface, while breaking up cliques and curbing bad practices is the real purpose."

"This time, we will not only investigate the problems of Gu Wangbei, Nie Mingyu, Li Zhixu and others, but also investigate a number of chains of dependence, patronage and special favors, and completely sever this kind of hidden privilege and shake up the unspoken rules."

"Okay, that's how it should be."

Xu Haiming's expression was resolute.

"Comrade Zhenguo, I will actively cooperate with the organization in all subsequent investigations. I will unconditionally disclose all my personal assets, family transactions, and family member reports. I will accept any accountability or public notice that the organization should issue if I have failed in my duties.

"If this move can resonate with some people, I would be willing to be relieved of my duties."

"If there were more people like Comrade Heming, our work would be much easier."

To be honest, Zhong Zhenguo knew he couldn't do it himself, but that's precisely why he sincerely admired talents like Xu Haiming.

"Comrade Haiming, rest assured. It is precisely because of your uprightness and willingness to take responsibility that Comrade Shijun and Team Leader Xu trust you. This incident will not negate your personal integrity, your work, or your position. However, the issue must be thoroughly investigated and a proper explanation must be given."

"I will truthfully convey your attitude to Team Leader Yu. The investigation team will officially connect with you soon."

"I have no problem with that. Public matters are public matters, and private matters are private matters. Cases are cases, and work is work. I, Xu Haiming, will definitely stand on the side of the organization and take the lead in cooperating to the end," Xu Haiming said in a deep voice.

Baijiang.

Chu Shijun then received a call from Zhong Zhenguo.

After learning of Xu Haiming's attitude, he nodded slightly. "This is exactly the kind of comrade we need. Comrade Zhenguo, you should also communicate with them. If there are comrades like Haiming who are willing to cooperate, we will consider them accordingly."

"Yes, I know what I'm doing."

Zhong Zhenguo understood the meaning behind those words.

Those who deserve punishment will not be tolerated, but those like Xu Haiming who actively cooperate and are steadfast in their integrity will not be affected.

……

Time flies, and another half month has passed in the blink of an eye.

Apart from the dedicated line of Li Zhixu, which is still in operation.

The operation was carried out simultaneously in Baijiang, Zhongjiang, and Yangcheng.

On this day, in Conference Room No. 1 of the Xinjiang Provincial Party Committee, a closed-door, small-scale special meeting was held.

Chu Shijun, as the core leader of the local inspection team, presided over the meeting, and Yu Tingyun attended as an observer.

"Secretary Yu, Secretary Chu, comrades, after nearly two months of multiple rounds of comprehensive verification, tracing of clues, and questioning of personnel, the Baijiang inspection team reports on the case as follows: The cases of disciplinary violations and illegal activities related to Gu Wangbei, Xu Dong, Zhu Yang, Zhang Yang, and others have all been investigated, the evidence is closed, and the facts are established, meeting the conditions for final disposal."

Holding the documents, Li Zhenwang looked around at Yu Tingyun, Chu Shijun, and everyone else connected via video, and reported in a deep voice.

"The overall investigation conclusions can be summarized in three points. First, the case chain is complete, relying on the political and business circles of Baijiang, Zhongjiang, and Yangcheng to form a complete black interest chain... Second, the nature of the problem is extremely serious, involving not only collusion between government and business and project violations, but also deeply implicated in major criminal offenses such as illegal transactions, severely trampling on the bottom line of the rule of law and endangering social security. Third, the erosion is serious..."

"Let's start with the core issues: whose responsibility is it, what is the nature of the matter, and how should it be handled? Report the facts truthfully."

Chu Shijun tapped on the table.

"Gu Wangbei, the core businessman involved in the case, is one of the masterminds behind the entire cross-border anti-corruption case. He has long used business operations and project investments as a cover to build a secret network of connections in multiple locations, and to win over and corrupt staff in various places, paving the way for illegal activities."

"They have committed serious criminal offenses such as illegal trafficking of legal instruments, involving particularly large sums of money and causing extremely serious social harm. Furthermore, they have shown no remorse or willingness to correct their mistakes, and have evaded investigation and concealed evidence throughout the entire process. They have also been extremely resistant to interrogation and have never cooperated."

"Chairman Xu, a key real estate businessman involved in the case, is suspected of massive financial crimes..."

"Zhu Yang and Zhang Yang are key public officials involved in the case in Baijiang. They are direct executors and protectors of the black market chain. Relying on their positions and authority, they illegally approved projects..."

"..."

Li Zhenwang read out the list one by one with a serious expression.

Then, in the video, Luo Shanhe stood up and reported: "In Yangcheng, the key person involved in the case, Nie Mingyu, has long relied on his father's influence in private..."

Following that, Luo Xiehua from Zhongjiang also reported on the cases of Gao Mingyuan, Wang Zheng, and others.

After a brief silence in the conference room, Yu Tingyun slowly spoke in the video: "This series of cases spanning multiple locations is by no means a simple case of political and business misconduct; it is a vicious case in which commercial criminal forces bind public power and trample on the bottom line of the rule of law."

He set the tone first.

"This aligns perfectly with the root cause of the problem we are currently addressing: 'The individual is clean, but the surrounding environment is chaotic.' Many people believe that not directly accepting money or actively seeking personal gain does not constitute a violation of discipline, which is completely wrong."

Chu Shijun continued, "That's right. The problems of Zhang Yang, Zhu Yang, Wang Zheng, and others have exposed the shortcomings in our previous supervision of cadres, especially in middle-level positions and key positions with real power. The daily supervision was lax and the constraints were insufficient. I fully agree with the inspection team's investigation conclusions and support strict handling in accordance with regulations."

Subsequently, others also expressed their opinions.

Finally, everyone's eyes fell on Yu Tingyun.

He slowly began to speak: "Then let's unify our statements and implement them in accordance with regulations. All actions must adhere to the principles of clear facts, consistent standards, appropriate leniency and severity, addressing the root causes of problems, and proceeding with the case closure process."

"Comrade Shijun, you are in charge of making arrangements and reporting in a timely manner."

"OK."

Chu Shijun nodded.

"Comrades, in accordance with the instructions from higher authorities and in light of the local situation, the following arrangements are made for this series of cases."

Everyone, whether physically present or via video link, sat up straight, holding their breath and preparing to take notes.

"First, Gu Wangbei and Nie Mingyu, as businessmen involved in the case, were the core operators behind the scenes, coordinating cross-provincial illegal and criminal activities, leading the operation of the black interest chain, and were involved in serious criminal offenses. The circumstances were extremely egregious."

"Completely seize all assets of the companies and individuals involved, fully recover all illegal gains, secure all criminal evidence, immediately transfer them to the judicial authorities, and hold them accountable severely according to law. We will show no leniency and completely eradicate the foundation of the black industry that it has bred."
