Chapter 38 Guiding Public Opinion

At the Standing Committee, Propaganda Minister Shao Shutao spoke up, picked up the teacup and drank saliva, put it down, and was about to continue, but inadvertently glanced at Yang Weiguo and frowned, although it was a very subtle expression, but he couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, swallowed the following words into his stomach, and said with a smile: "That's it for my opinion, but it's just throwing bricks and leading the way, and I hope to hear more about everyone,"

Mayor Feng Kai put down the teacup and sighed: "This kind of thing happened, it's very sad, the provincial leaders also attach great importance to it, Secretary Zeng also called me, I agree with Minister Shao's opinion just now, it's not a bad thing to check the cadres who may have problems, it's not that you don't believe in which, but in the spirit of being responsible for the people of the city, didn't Chairman Mao teach us in the past, and if there is no change, then encouragement, I don't know, the beating incident has happened for so long, the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection has not paid attention to it,"

Cui Yong, secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, had a somewhat ugly face, Feng Kai's words were clearly holding the Commission for Discipline Inspection accountable, saying that the Commission for Discipline Inspection was derelict in its duties.

After Feng Kai spoke, he was silent just now, and several Standing Committee members who did not say a word were like hearing the horn of the charge, and they all spoke out in agreement with this opinion, in short, it was necessary to severely punish the murderer and give an explanation to the vast number of cadres and the masses, but in the end, all eyes finally converged on Yang Weiguo, after all, he was the number one in Wuxi.

"Investigation must be investigated, and it must be strictly investigated to the end," Yang Weiguo said categorically: "No matter who it is, dare to beat government cadres, this kind of behavior must be severely punished, we must not let our comrades sweat and bleed, then who will dare to work with peace of mind, if the beaters are our government cadres, it is even more lacking in the minimum criteria, this kind of black sheep, we must clean up our team,"

The corners of Feng Kai's mouth couldn't help but float a smile, Yang Weiguo's argument was very high, then he wanted to see how Yang Weiguo set fire to himself and how it ended in the end.

Unexpectedly, Yang Weiguo's words changed, and he said in a deep voice: "But I don't agree with everyone's point of view, why do we have to assume that the thugs who beat people are our cadres, just now Mayor Feng criticized the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection, saying that it happened for so long and did not investigate, but I think that before the truth is clear, this is just an ordinary civil case, and it should be investigated by the Public Security Bureau first, not the Commission for Discipline Inspection, of course, if it is determined that the target is an official cadre, then the Commission for Discipline Inspection will naturally come in handy, Secretary Cui, do you say yes, ”

Cui Yong nodded, and said righteously: "For cadres who violate laws and disciplines, our Commission for Discipline Inspection will never be soft," and couldn't help but glance at Feng Kai, as if he was countering his rebuke to the Commission for Discipline Inspection just now.

Feng Kai's face is a little unsightly, a secretary of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection, also dares to argue with him, the mayor and deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, if it weren't for Yang Weiguo behind his back, forgive him Cui Yong would not have the courage, but he also smiled and said: "Secretary Yang is right, we are narrow-minded," but he was secretly scolding in his heart, whether it is the Commission for Discipline Inspection or the public security, I don't believe that it can turn from white to black.

"Secretary Wang, how are you doing now," Guo Taiming, the executive vice mayor on the side, asked with a smile, he was rare to see Feng Kai deflated, and he only felt very happy.

Wang Kuian, secretary of the Political and Legal Committee and director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau on the side, coughed lightly, cleared his throat, and then introduced: "Secretary Yang gave us instructions at the first time, and we have pulled the net to investigate in the city, up to now, 23 city cars and 17 passing cars have been checked, and the car's itinerary and the owner of the car have been investigated and questioned in detail, 4 suspicious vehicles have been identified, and the murderer has finally been identified and arrested."

"Oh, Secretary Wang, you're moving fast," Feng Kai seemed to admire, but the disbelief was overflowing.

A hint of anger flashed in Wang Kuian's eyes, but he said with a smile: "Secretary Yang and Mayor Feng attach great importance to things, and we naturally dare not slack off,"

"Okay, let's ask Secretary Wang to tell me which official and cadre is so bold," Feng Kai couldn't help but roll his gaze on Yang Weiguo's face when he spoke.

Wang Kuian took out a copy of the material, distributed it to everyone, and said: "After our careful investigation, the final determined beater is called Zheng Shixiong, a native of Rongzhou City, engaged in business and trade, on the day of the incident, he drove his son to report to the tourist job, and accidentally had a conflict with Tang Tailiang of the Provincial Party Committee Supervision Office, and drove away after the beating. He was detained for 15 days and fined 500 yuan to compensate Tang Tailiang for his medical expenses,"

"It's as simple as that," Shao Shutao also showed an expression of disbelief when he heard it, "Have you been identified by Tang Tailiang," after saying that, he also felt that he had lost his words, if he didn't go through the victim's identification, how could Wang Kuian dare to take it to the Standing Committee.

"Why, I don't believe it," Yang Weiguo glanced at Shao Shutao.

"No, no," Shao Shutao smiled and said, "I just didn't expect Secretary Wang and them to find out the truth so quickly, admire, admire,"

This is the way it is, if officials and cadres are involved, the nature of the beating incident will be bad, but if it is just like Wang Kuian said, it is nothing more than an extremely ordinary civil dispute, such a punishment is already very heavy.

Yang Weiguo knocked on the table again, and said in a deep voice: "We now have some cadres who don't know what they are thinking all day long, and when they encounter problems, they have to think about the bad aspects, could it be that it is not good to find out now that it is not the cadres who beat people, Minister Shao, how does your Propaganda Department manage the supervision of the media, do you know how much negative impact the report published in the "Wuxi Business Daily" has had on the image of our Wuxi officials and cadres, and how passive the work is?"

Shao Shutao, who was named, had an extremely ugly face, and glanced at Feng Kai, this discordant report, if it wasn't for Feng Kai's instructions, he wouldn't dare to go up to it.

Perhaps feeling the meaning of Shao Shutao's request for help, Feng Kai took over the conversation and said with a smile: "Hehe, I see that the report of "Wuxi Business Daily" is nothing, isn't the central government advocating sunshine government affairs now, if you want the masses to believe in the government, you must unblock channels, let them better understand the work of the government, supervise the work of the government, the media is a good platform,"

"Then we can't ignore the guidance and influence of public opinion," Yang Weiguo said with a calm face and without giving face at all: "What is the most important thing in the news media, is to seek truth from facts, is a true report, good things should be reported, bad things should also be reported, but it must be investigated and understood, report the most authentic content, and let the masses understand the most real truth, that is called sunshine government affairs, instead of blindly reporting before figuring out the situation, and now this report has aroused the masses' doubts about our cadres. See how you can do it."

Feng Kai stopped talking, Yang Weiguo's words were at the point everywhere, and he was really difficult to deal with, so he could only drink water from a teacup.

"The report didn't name names," Shao argued.

"Insinuations are even worse," Yang Weiguo said angrily: "The more you don't report clearly, the easier it is for the masses who don't know the truth to speculate, if Minister Shao, your understanding of propaganda work is still at this level, then I will consider asking my superiors for instructions, and replace someone who is more qualified for this position to preside over the work,"

Shao Shutao's face turned pale suddenly, although he is also a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, and the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee has no right to punish him, but if Yang Weiguo really wants to show this attitude to the province, although Yang Weiguo will lose face, but his career is basically over, I thought that I would not be able to defeat Lin Chenwei this time, and I could also embarrass Yang Weiguo, but the development of things greatly exceeded their expectations, Yang Weiguo's move was really powerful, and he had to bow his head and say: "Secretary Yang, I didn't do a good job in this matter, I will review,"

"Now is not a question of review or not," Yang Weiguo waved his hand and said: "The top priority is to eliminate the negative impact of this matter to the greatest extent, you may not know that this matter has had a great impact on the normal work of the high-tech zone, an environmental protection bureau can actually turn a deaf ear to the work arrangements of the leadership, Yang Fengyin is violated, if you don't hear these rumors, you will be so bold, but this is good, since he is so unorganized and undisciplined, Secretary Cui, you go and investigate, Let's see if he has any other questions,"

Cui Yong nodded, perhaps because of the Discipline Inspection Commission, he has always been unsmiling and has few words, but it is also scary.

The people here are silent, the Environmental Protection Bureau of the High-tech Zone does not dare to take care of the affairs of Tianma Battery Factory, most of them have heard of it, and even become a laughing stock, but Yang Weiguo has to pull these two things together, and they are not good at saying anything, they can only say that this director is unlucky, and he has to hit Yang Weiguo's knife.

And Yang Weiguo's dedication to Lin Chendu's protection can also be seen.

"Minister Ke, I will leave the matter of restoring the reputation of Secretary Lin of the High-tech Zone to you," Yang Weiguo turned his head to Ke Zhengping, the head of the organization department.

"Hehe, no problem," Ke Zhengping said with a smile: "This kind of thing is the responsibility of our organization department," of course he is willing to do this kind of icing on the cake.

"Okay, adjourn the meeting," without waiting for any reaction from the others, Yang Weiguo waved his hand, then got up and walked out.
