In name only: The land of Handong, I shall rule its fate.

This problem has arisen.

Tian Guofu, who was already feeling utterly defeated by Gao Yuliang, almost buried his head in his crotch.

"Um... this... that..."

"The investigation conducted by the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection in conjunction with the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection is consistent with the testimonies of Ding Yizhen and Liu Xinjian."

Tian Guofu felt like dying.

Full of confidence, they launched their attack, only to find that the Zhao family had completely absolved themselves of any responsibility, leaving all the blame to be divided among the three.

"So, based on the current clues, it's just a case of Liu Xinjian and Ding Yizhen committing job-related crimes through collusion between officials and businessmen?"

Lin Zhiyuan continued to ask questions in depth.

"Um…"

Ever since Gao Xiaoqin turned herself in that day, Liu Xinjian seemed to have received some kind of signal, and he kept his mouth shut and refused to let go. However, only Qiu Tianhen and Li Guohua went to the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection that day, and the whole process was under surveillance.

Tian Guofu reviewed the surveillance video several times but still couldn't understand how the message was transmitted.

"Then proceed according to the normal procedures, recover the embezzled funds, and transfer the case to the procuratorate."

"Cai Chenggong fled to the capital and has not been apprehended yet, but the chain of evidence has been established. Let's first transfer Chen Yanshi, Zheng Xipo, and others to the judiciary in accordance with the law."

"There are many storms in Handong right now, so we can't focus too much attention on this kind of thing."

Lin Zhiyuan suggested.

"Can."

Liu Changsheng and Gao Yuliang both nodded in agreement. Even if Tian Guofu still wanted to persist, he had no solid point of attack.

"Next, I will report on another case to Governor Liu, Secretary Gao, and Secretary Tian."

Lin Zhiyuan took a deep breath.

He picked through the documents he had brought with him, selected three copies of the report, and handed them to the three people.

"Starting in 95, Handong Province underwent a large number of state-owned enterprise reforms, including public-to-private, public-to-mixed-shareholding, and bankruptcy liquidation. Due to some historical reasons, a large amount of state-owned land resources were transferred along with the enterprises because some reform leaders either intentionally or unintentionally favored their subordinates."

"The situation is absolutely shocking!"

"Of course, this kind of problem is not unique to Handong. However, as a pilot area for reform, many people in Handong turned a good thing into an ATM under the empty banner of 'going boldly'."

"Moreover, the reform of state-owned enterprises stopped in 04, 20 years after the earliest reforms, and many paper records are missing, making it difficult to trace the origins."

"There are records."

"Upon closer inspection, the certificate was genuine, but the other procedures and processes were all fraudulent."

"Back then, there were 11000 state-owned enterprises in Handong that underwent reform, and 70-80% of them had this problem."

"More than 50% of the restructured private enterprises went bankrupt within a few years, and the land changed hands among many people, becoming their initial capital."

"Besides Governor Liu, both Secretary Gao and Secretary Tian have served in Handong for more than 20 years. I would like to hear your opinions."

Let's not bring up old grievances.

"But should we recover this money? If we don't, we've already decided to take back the land from Dafeng Factory. Won't that leave behind more serious potential conflicts?"

Lin Zhiyuan stared intently at the two people beside him, as if he was determined to get a clear answer from them today.

"Damn it!"

Tian Guofu cursed inwardly. He had served in Lincheng for a long time in his early years, and Lincheng had the most state-owned enterprises in Handong that were undergoing reform, far exceeding the provincial capital Jingzhou and the economic powerhouse Lüzhou.

He handled many state-owned enterprise restructurings, and he had the same problem.

Now let's overturn the verdict...

Does Lin Zhiyuan want to get him arrested?

So, Mr. Lin, that's what you're thinking, isn't it? What did I do to offend you? I just glanced at you a few more times at the first provincial party committee meeting, didn't I?

How could you, a dignified executive deputy and an outstanding cadre of the organization, be so petty!

You've already ripped me off enough!

Let me tell you, even a rabbit will bite when cornered...

Don't push me!

"Secretary Tian, ​​is there something you really want to say to me?"

"Why are your eyes red?"

"Don't get excited, don't get excited. You must take care of yourself. I know there are a lot going on in Handong lately. As the secretary of the provincial discipline inspection commission, you must take good care of yourself."

"There are still many major and important cases in Handong that need your leadership in the investigation."

Lin Zhiyuan turned his head and saw a pair of bloodshot eyes staring intently at him, so he quickly comforted him.

What utter nonsense!

You scoundrel, I will not conspire with you.

What! There are still many major cases?

Hey Lin, you still say you're not trying to kill me!

I see your surname isn't Lin or Yan, it's Zhao! Zhao like Zhao Lichun!

Tian Guofu almost spat blood onto Lin Zhiyuan's smug face.

"Ahem!"

Although Gao Yuliang was not in the same camp as Tian Guofu, he also couldn't stand it. Of course, the most important reason was that he was also involved in the restructuring and reform of state-owned enterprises.

Stance is such a subtle thing.

In the previous incident, Gao Yuliang was still launching a full-scale attack on Tian Guofu, but in the next incident, he took the initiative to defend his old rival.

"Governor Zhiyuan, let's keep things separate."

"Of course, the massive losses of state-owned enterprises are a necessary consequence of reforms, a way to find a way out of a desperate situation."

"At that time, the cadres in Handong were also feeling their way across the river, with no experience to refer to! Handong was also a pilot area for reform, and the whole country was waiting for Handong's experience to move forward. The local cadres had to move faster and more quickly, so it was understandable that some loopholes would appear."

"For example, as mentioned earlier, land is allocated according to the enterprise."

"People were not well-off back then, especially the working class. They spent half their lives eating and living in the factory. How could we get them to buy shares and complete the reform with peace of mind? That's why the issue of cadres buying shares came about."

"Looking back twenty years from today, although a lot of corruption has occurred, it was at that time the greatest guarantee of confidence for the workers. The money of the workers and the people is money, and the money of the cadres is also money. The cadres taking the lead in investing their own money represents their unwavering confidence."

"These are some of the better factories, where workers are willing to invest. But what about the worse ones? The workers themselves don't have confidence, so they have to rely entirely on private capital. But private capital also needs confidence. Under such enormous financial pressure, the money that the cadres contribute is no longer important. They can only provide greater confidence guarantees, such as land."

"Only in this way could Handong take the lead in completing the comprehensive reform of state-owned enterprises, revitalize the market economy, and lay the foundation for Handong to maintain its second-place position and strive for first place in the national economy."

"At the same time, it sets an example for the whole country."

"Governor Zhiyuan, from a legal perspective, I cannot argue that the officials' actions were without fault. However, the vast majority of officials acted with a determination to go through fire and water to do good deeds."

Please do not doubt their faith.

With a smile on his lips and his eyes shining behind his glasses, Gao Yuliang leaned back, crossed his hands and placed them on his intertwined thighs, skillfully confronting the sharp questions raised by Lin Zhiyuan with the attitude of a participant and someone who had been through it all.

"Secretary Guofu, you're right, aren't you?"

Gao Yuliang turned around, glanced at Tian Guofu again, and asked.
