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...
When the Lu family was mentioned, Ma Qingyuan's mind moved.
It is very likely that this matter was planned by the old guy Lu Tiancheng.
Apart from him, who else has the ability to make the demolition of illegal buildings a hot topic in such a short period of time?
In other words, who would be willing to make an enemy of the entire county government just for the sake of his Lu family?
Thinking of this, Ma Qingyuan drank some water, suppressed his dissatisfaction, and said to Chang Guochao,
"Deputy County Chief Chang, I can give you a chance to make amends now."
Chang Guochao instantly perked up, looking at Ma Qingyuan with shining eyes, "County Magistrate Ma, please tell me if you have any instructions!"
"Go to the Lu family and try to convince them to remove these negative news as soon as possible!"
"If they don't listen, then tell them that the county will definitely find out who is behind the rumor and bring them to justice!"
Ma Qingyuan said seriously.
"This..." Chang Guochao was in hesitation. Asking him to pass the message to the Lu family, isn't it obvious that he is asking him to break off relations with the Lu family?
"What? You're still not willing?" Ma Qingyuan was annoyed when he saw Chang Guochao's hesitation. I gave you a chance, but you're useless!
At this time, Li Lin spoke.
He said calmly, "County Magistrate Ma, I don't think this is appropriate."
"Oh? Do you have any suggestions?" Ma Qingyuan was surprised. He thought this method was direct and effective, but why did it become inappropriate in Li Lin's eyes?
Li Lin said seriously, "First of all, whether it was the Lu family's doing is just our guess. Of course, they are the most suspicious, and no one can deny this."
"Putting this aside, the entire incident has already caused irreversible damage to the reputation of Weishui Township and even our Shannan County."
"If we go to them to plead for mercy now, wouldn't that make these criminals even more proud and rampant?"
"If this matter is left unresolved, I guarantee that there will be endless negative news about Shannan County in the future."
"Because everyone no longer respects the authority of the government, if they feel a little psychologically unbalanced, they will go online and spread rumors!"
"In this way, even if we settle today's demolition incident, another "forced demolition" incident may pop up tomorrow..."
"What should our county government do then? Should we send people to intercede and negotiate peace? What if multiple public opinion incidents suddenly pop up? Who will speak up?"
After he finished speaking, everyone present fell silent.
Ma Qingyuan nodded solemnly, "You are right, I was not thoughtful enough. The government is not an individual. Any degree of retreat and tolerance is indulgence and connivance of illegal behavior... The consequences of doing so are indeed disastrous."
"County Magistrate Ma..." Li Lin glanced at Chang Guochao, implying that Ma Qingyuan's next words should not be heard by Chang Guochao.
Ma Qingyuan understood and said to Chang Guochao with a cold face, "Deputy County Chief Chang, you should go back and reflect on yourself first. Nothing we said today can be leaked!"
Everyone understood that Chang Guochao might reveal today's situation to the Lu family as soon as he went out.
Therefore, Ma Qingyuan specifically emphasized that he was not allowed to leak the information.
As for whether he would listen to me or not, I had no idea.
Ma Qingyuan was stunned for a moment. It was obvious that he had been kicked out.
He was also very clear that Ma Qingyuan now had little trust in him.
The reason why I have come to this point is all because of Li Lin!
He stood up unwillingly and glared at Li Lin fiercely.
Li Lin also gave him a disdainful look in response.
Chang Guochao left, his back looking desolate and lonely.
Li Lin continued, "County Magistrate Ma, Minister Yu, I have an idea. I would like to ask for your opinions first."
"You tell me."
Ma Qingyuan nodded.
At this moment, in their eyes, Li Lin was no longer a simple township party secretary.
Just imagine, even the county was helpless to solve this troublesome matter, but Li Lin just made a phone call to the leaders of the provincial TV station to come forward and solve it.
His energy is even greater than that of everyone else present!
Who dares to underestimate such a person?
"The provincial leaders are very concerned about our work and are rushing to Shannan County to actively assist in handling this matter."
"After our county propaganda department responded positively to this matter through conventional means..."
“We can use the provincial platform to conduct a mass interview with county and township governments on their work to demolish illegal buildings.”
"Posting positive interviews with ordinary people on the Internet can reduce the negative impact of public opinion on Shannan County."
"Secondly, it can help reverse the overall perception and opinion of Shannan County among netizens across the country."
"Thirdly, it can enhance the reputation of Shannan County and help the county's investment attraction and industrial restructuring in the next step."
Li Lin looked at Ma Qingyuan and Yu Haifeng tentatively.
It was obvious that the two were very interested in Li Lin's ideas.
"Go on."
Li Lin continued, "At the same time, the Internet monitoring department of the county public security bureau took action to find out the person behind the rumor."
"By using him as a negative example and posting it online, we can eliminate negative influences and curb those cybercrimes that are still in their infancy."
"With such a multi-pronged approach, Shannan County's rule of law construction system will be taken to a higher level."
"It will lay a solid foundation for the next development of Shannan County."
After he finished speaking, everyone at the scene fell silent for two seconds.
Ma Qingyuan was silent for a long time, then nodded heavily, looking at Li Lin with appreciation, "You have clear ideas and can see far enough... Now it seems that Secretary Liu was indeed wise in selecting you as the township party committee secretary!"
