When his superior retired, Li Lin, as his secretary, was implicated and demoted to an indefinite secondment as deputy township head in a remote rural town.
With no backing, Li Lin's polit...
"Li Lin, what are you doing? So many leaders are waiting for you, why are you here just now?" Chang Guochao spoke first, transferring the humiliation inflicted on him by Ma Qingyuan to Li Lin.
Li Lin glared at Chang Guochao and ignored him. He walked straight to Ma Qingyuan and Yu Haifeng and said seriously,
"County Magistrate Ma, I have collected some evidence that is sufficient to prove that the demolition process in Weishui Township was legal and compliant. I apply to put this evidence online to dispel the rumors of those who have bad intentions!"
Yu Haifeng smiled bitterly and said, "Li Lin, what if you have evidence? Even if you post all the evidence online, the traffic of our county-level platform is not enough to offset the negative impact of those videos on Shannan County!"
If we want to completely eliminate the impact of this incident, there are only two ways to go. One is for the Provincial Party Committee Propaganda Department to step in and directly cut off the source of the video and slowly wait for the heat of this incident to dissipate.
However, cutting off the source of video release does not mean completely eliminating public opinion. Those self-media will still recreate relevant public opinion through other channels to achieve their goal of attracting people's attention.
The second way is to respond positively, which is what you said about publishing the evidence on the official platform, but...unless the media at the provincial level or above come forward to report on it, only in this way can the public's views and attitudes towards this matter be reversed to the greatest extent.
But this is easier said than done. It still needs to be reported up the chain of command and approved by the higher authorities before it can be implemented. If it takes half a month, by then the opportunity will be gone, and there will be no chance of reversing the situation!"
Ma Qingyuan looked at Li Lin with a cold face, "Li Lin, did you hear what Minister Yu said? This incident has had a very bad impact on our Shannan County! And you are the culprit! Dismissing you now is a light punishment!"
Chang Guochao couldn't help laughing and said, "Secretary Li, I told you very clearly at the time that the Lu family's house cannot be demolished!
But you didn't listen. Now you have brought such a huge negative impact to our Shannan County. As County Magistrate Ma said, even if I dismiss you, it won't be enough to relieve my hatred!"
"Not only you, Li Lin, but the entire Weishui Township should be reprimanded! Let's see if you will be so impulsive in doing things in the future!" Ma Qingyuan said angrily, slamming the table.
Li Lin suddenly said seriously, "Dear leaders, there is no violation of regulations in the demolition of illegal buildings in Weishui Township. I think now is not the time to pursue anyone's responsibility, but we should go all out to eliminate the negative impact of this incident on our county as soon as possible."
"Eliminate the influence? That's easy for you to say! How can you eliminate it? Just touch your upper lip to your lower lip and it will be eliminated? That's nonsense!"
"Li Lin, did you not understand what Minister Yu said just now? The county is helpless right now, and you naively think that you can eliminate the impact immediately?"
"Humph! If you have the guts, contact the leaders of the Provincial Propaganda Department right now and ask them to help us solve this troublesome matter!"
The three of them thought that Li Lin was dreaming and looked at him with some contempt.
Suddenly, Li Lin's cell phone rang.
It showed a strange number from the provincial capital.
"Leaders, can I take the call first?"
Ma Qingyuan waved at him impatiently.
Li Lin answered the call in front of everyone.
"Hello, who is this?"
"Are you Secretary Li Lin of Weishui Township?"
"I am."
"Hello, I'm Song Siyao, the editor-in-chief of the provincial TV station. Minister Li asked me to contact you."
Li Lin was overjoyed. This call came at the perfect time!
"Hello, Editor-in-Chief Song. I believe you are already aware of the situation in Weishui Township. We are now..."
Song Siyao interrupted him and said, "I already know the general situation and have done a simple risk assessment. At present, this matter is still in the early stage of public opinion outbreak. I will take the CCTV reporters to your Shannan County to meet and talk in detail."
"Okay, Editor-in-Chief Song!"
After hanging up the phone, Li Lin looked at Ma Qingyuan and the others.
I saw that the three of them were looking at me with strange eyes.
Yu Haifeng stared in surprise and asked Li Lin, "Could the editor-in-chief Song who just called you be the one from the provincial TV station?"
Ma Qingyuan also looked at Li Lin in surprise. He had also heard of Editor-in-Chief Song.
Li Lin said casually, "Yes, it's the editor-in-chief of the provincial station, Song Siyao!"
Huh?! The three people present instantly showed expressions of shock and even horror.
The editor-in-chief of the provincial TV station is at the deputy-department level... He actually took the initiative to call Li Lin, a township-level cadre?
"What did she say to you on the phone?" Ma Qingyuan asked quickly.
"Oh, she said that she would immediately lead CCTV reporters to our Shannan County to help us resolve this public opinion crisis." Li Lin smiled calmly.
"What?" Ma Qingyuan was shocked. "You are going to come to Shannan County in person to help us solve this crisis?"
Yu Haifeng also looked at Li Lin in surprise and asked, "Li Lin, did you know Editor-in-Chief Song before? Why didn't you tell me earlier! With the provincial TV station leaders coming forward, is there anything that can't be solved? You, you are still trying to fool us..."
Chang Guochao didn't say anything, and he didn't even have the courage to look up at Li Lin.
Just now, he was the one who condemned Li Lin the most harshly, and even clamored for Li Lin to go to the provincial leaders to resolve the issue.
Unexpectedly, the slap in the face came so quickly, the provincial leader actually called Li Lin personally...
Holy shit, this is unbelievable!
What is Li Lin's origin? What powerful background does he have?
First, Chen Hongxing spoke for him, and now the provincial leaders are also taking the initiative to help him...
