Nominal: The Handong Game, the Energy System's Counterattack

Governor Liu stated that Zhao Donglai himself had no connection with Dafeng Factory.

He did these things because someone gave him instructions.

As for who this person is?

In Handong, the only person who could make Governor Liu reluctant to mention it, and for whom Gao Yuliang and Li Dakang both helped cover it up, was that person.

Thinking about the dispute between Shanshui Group and Dafeng Factory, many people thought that Dafeng Factory might be related to that person.

Sha Ruijin naturally thought of that person as well, and immediately felt a surge of excitement.

The behavior of these people, and the fact that Governor Liu said he was greeting them, must be related to his goals.

Therefore, our Secretary Sha looked at Governor Liu with a serious expression.

"Governor Liu, since you mentioned that someone passed a message to Zhao Donglai, it proves that you must have found some clues."

"I just mentioned the issue of cadres in Handong Province, since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China."

"Our superiors have put forward new and higher requirements for our political development and cadre team building."

"The introduction of the Eight-Point Regulation pays particular attention to the issue of cadres' conduct."

"We must vigorously strengthen the building of a clean and honest work style, with a focus on maintaining the Party's close ties with the people, and vigorously strengthen the building of a clean and honest work style, with a focus on improving the system for punishing and preventing corruption."

"You just said that the provincial government has listed the illegal storage of more than 20 tons of gasoline at Dafeng Plant as a major incident endangering public safety."

"It concerns the lives and property safety of hundreds of thousands of people in Guangming District, Jingzhou City."

"As members of the Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee, we must investigate this matter thoroughly."

"When I first mentioned Dafeng Factory, I said that this was a vicious mass incident triggered by the Facebook posts of its cadres."

"Our superiors emphasized that we must maintain strong political resolve, have unwavering confidence in victory, and relentlessly fight against corruption."

"We must resolutely curb and prevent corruption, so that the people can continuously see tangible results and changes."

"Our stance is to resolutely combat corruption wherever it exists, to punish all forms of graft, and to crack down on both 'tigers' and 'flies,' adopting a zero-tolerance attitude towards corruption."

"Since you say that someone passed a message to Zhao Donglai, it proves that this incident cannot be handled by him alone."

"No matter who is involved, we will investigate thoroughly and never let a corrupt official get away with it."

Governor Liu was stunned by Sha Ruijin's long, high-profile speech.

No, Sha Ruijin, what do you mean? Are you going to label me just because I don't say anything?

Upon hearing these words, none of the Standing Committee members dared to move.

His words are the most important spirit that everyone should be learning. Anyone who objects to them is really not going to work here anymore.

Old Liu didn't know how to respond, so he secretly glanced at Zhou Chuyi.

Zhou Chuyi shrugged, indicating that there was nothing he could do.

They've already said these things; they wanted to give face to the new provincial party secretary, but there was nothing they could do.

Gao Yuliang and Li Dakang, who had been trying to persuade Sha Ruijin, looked at each other in bewilderment, wondering how they could possibly do so.

Sha Ruijin even brought up the grand concept of the "spirit of the Central Committee," so they didn't dare to object.

"Secretary Sha, do you really want me to say this?" Old Liu was still being kind; he was genuinely looking out for Sha Ruijin and wanted him to reconsider.

Mentioning Chen Yanshi at this point might make Sha Ruijin lose face even more than saying it at the beginning.

What to do? Sha Ruijin insists on telling him what to do.

"Speak up, what can't be said? This is the Standing Committee meeting. I don't believe there are people like us in Handong who can't discuss things."

Sha Ruijin, with a serious expression, asked Governor Liu to speak.

Li Dakang looked at Sha Ruijin, his right hand slightly raised, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

My mind kept screaming, "Secretary Sha, you're so foolish!"

Gao Yuliang had the same expression, but what could he do when Secretary Sha raised such a high tone?

"Then I'll say it." Seeing Sha Ruijin's resolute attitude, Governor Liu thought to himself, "You'd better not regret this."

He pulled another document out of the folder and coughed twice.

"As I just mentioned, the situation at Dafeng Factory is deteriorating, and Zhao Donglai of the Jingzhou Municipal Bureau has been complicit in it."

"Then why is Director Zhao Donglai ignoring the situation at Dafeng Factory?"

"The reason is simple: it's because of one person."

After saying that, Lao Liu met Sha Ruijin's encouraging gaze again and smiled slightly.

"This person is very familiar to everyone; he is Comrade Chen Yanshi, the former Executive Deputy Chief Prosecutor of the Provincial People's Procuratorate."

Upon hearing this name, the entire Standing Committee erupted in uproar.

Everyone's eyes immediately turned to Sha Ruijin.

Sha Ruijin, who had just been smiling and encouraging Governor Liu, suddenly froze and then turned dark.

His eyes widened slightly as he looked at Governor Liu.

No, it's not someone from the Zhao family he thought it was; it's Chen Yanshi.

Just now, before the Standing Committee meeting began, he also asked Comrade Chen Yanshi to give everyone a Party lecture.

Now, Governor Liu is directly saying that Chen Yanshi was involved in the incident where Dafeng Factory endangered public safety.

Now, in the entire officialdom of Handong, who doesn't know about the relationship between Chen Yanshi and Sha Ruijin?

Can I take back what I just said?

Feeling everyone's gaze, Sha Ruijin's face changed several times before finally turning dark.

Seeing Sha Ruijin's dark face, Governor Liu smiled slightly.

The meaning is simple: I didn't want to say this, but you insisted that I, Lao Liu, say it because of your rat poison.

You've already brought up the highest directive; if I don't say anything, wouldn't I be... well, you know?

He continued his statement, "In this case, I have ordered Comrade Luo Junzhen of the Provincial Public Security Department to take charge, and Comrade Cheng Du, the director of the Guangming District Branch, to assist in the investigation."

"When Luo Junzhen and Comrade Cheng Du reported to me, I even criticized them."

"I said Comrade Chen Yanshi is an old revolutionary, an old comrade, and a veteran cadre. The people all like him. How could this matter have anything to do with him?"

"Luo Junzhen and Comrade Cheng Du also felt wronged. They handed me the information they had investigated and explained the relationship between them."

"After hearing it, I also found it unbelievable."

"As Secretary Sha just said, Chen Yanshi is an old revolutionary. Some people don't like him and call him an old rock."

"He is a senior official and can get things done in various departments in Jingzhou City. Many cadres feel a headache when they encounter Old Chen."

"I think everyone has heard of the Second Procuratorate of Handong. The people like it and go to Old Chen for everything."

"Therefore, many cadres will try to avoid the problems that Mr. Chen raised."

"However, for some reason, Zhao Donglai of the Jingzhou Municipal Bureau listens to Comrade Chen Yanshi more."

Governor Liu raised his head, glanced around, and looked at Sha Ruijin, who was sitting in the main seat, gripping his pen tightly. He then lowered his head and continued his narration.

"The state-owned enterprise reform of Dafeng Factory was spearheaded and promoted by Mr. Chen Yanshi."

"For many years, Mr. Chen Yanshi has always cared about the workers of Dafeng Factory."

"He spoke out for the equity disputes, workers' rights and reform legacy issues of Dafeng Factory throughout the entire process. He has a very high reputation and a great voice among the workers of Dafeng Factory."

"Some workers have reported that the shares of Dafeng Factory employees were lost by unscrupulous businessmen in collusion with cadres."

"Old Chen supported the workers of Dafeng Factory in defending their rights, so Comrade Zhao Donglai always ignored the problems of Dafeng Factory."

"In addition, as everyone knows, Chen Lao's son, Chen Hai, is the director of the provincial anti-corruption bureau."

"Comrade Zhao Donglai and Chen Hai have a very close personal relationship. Chen Hai even wanted to act as a matchmaker for Comrade Zhao Donglai."
