Zhou Zhiyuan took a deep breath, looked at the busy people of Saikun County outside the window, and made a firm decision in his heart.

He needs to join forces with Qin Xiaonan, the deputy secretary of the county party committee and part-time secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, to jointly carry out anti-corruption work in Saikun County.

Zhou Zhiyuan picked up the phone and dialed Qin Xiaonan's number.

Qin Xiaonan's voice soon came from the other end of the phone: "Secretary Zhou, what's going on?"

Zhou Zhiyuan said calmly, "Xiaonan, I want to talk to you about anti-corruption efforts. I believe we need to launch a campaign against corruption in Saikun County."

Qin Xiaonan agreed and said, "Okay, I'm willing to work with you to let the people of Saikun County see our determination."

Thus, Zhou Zhiyuan and Qin Xiaonan began an unprecedented collaboration.

They first started the reform from within the county party committee, severely punishing those corrupt officials and letting other officials see their determination.

At the same time, they also actively promote education and publicity to let the people of Saikun County understand what corruption is and how to resist corruption.

They also set up reporting boxes and reporting hotlines to encourage people to actively report corruption around them.

At the same time, they have also strengthened supervision of public officials to ensure that their behavior complies with ethical and legal requirements.

In addition, they have promoted a series of policy reforms, such as strengthening government transparency, regulating the use of public resources, and establishing a fair judicial system.

These reforms will not only help prevent corruption but also help improve people's quality of life.

The efforts of Zhou Zhiyuan and Qin Xiaonan received a warm response from the people.

Not only have they achieved remarkable results within Sekhun County, they have also won the respect and love of the people.

Their anti-corruption efforts have become a legend in Saikun County and a beautiful landscape.

Zhou Zhiyuan and Qin Xiaonan stood together at the gate of the county government, looking at the busy people of Saikun County, they felt extremely gratified.

They know that their efforts have not been in vain and that their anti-corruption work is changing the face of Saikun County.

"It's all worth it," said Qin Xiaonan.

Zhou Zhiyuan nodded and said with a smile, "Yes, as long as we have the people and justice in our hearts, no difficulties are to be feared."

They smiled at each other, their hearts filled with confidence and expectations for the future.

To fight corruption and promote integrity, we must be drastic and decisive, otherwise all our efforts will be wasted.

Of course, due to the interference of some people, the anti-corruption work in Saikun County had to be suspended.

Tian Zhongming, the municipal party secretary of Yuebei City, personally visited Saikun County to inspect the work and criticized and educated Zhou Zhiyuan, the county party secretary of Saikun County, by name.

Secretary Zhou Zhiyuan was very puzzled. What was going on?

Did I do something wrong in my anti-corruption efforts in Saikun County?

Zhou Zhiyuan returned to Saikun County with full of doubts.

He kept thinking about Tian Zhongming's criticism. Was there really something wrong with him in his fight against corruption?

After returning to Saikun County, Zhou Zhiyuan immediately convened a meeting with the heads of relevant departments, hoping to learn more about Tian Zhongming's inspection of Saikun County.

After some investigation, he found that Tian Zhongming did not criticize any specific incident or problem by name, but criticized the work attitude and style of Saikun County.

Zhou Zhiyuan felt a little confused, but he also understood that this was not a simple question.

He decided to go to the grassroots level in person to understand the situation and see if there were any neglected issues.

So he began a week-long visit to the grassroots, communicating with the masses face to face to understand their needs and difficulties.

During the visit, Zhou Zhiyuan discovered some problems, such as the lack of seriousness in the work attitude of some grassroots cadres and the irregular work processes.

The existence of these problems will undoubtedly affect the satisfaction and trust of the masses, and must be taken seriously.

Under Zhou Zhiyuan's promotion, Saikun County immediately launched a series of rectification actions.

First, comprehensive training was provided to grassroots cadres to improve their professional capabilities and work attitudes.

Secondly, the work process was standardized to ensure that every task could be effectively implemented.

At the same time, supervision and assessment of grassroots work have been strengthened to ensure that all work receives timely feedback and improvement.

After a period of hard work, the work of Saikun County was recognized by the Yuebei Municipal Party Committee.

As a result, Zhou Zhiyuan admired Tian Zhongming even more and understood more clearly his responsibilities and mission as the county party secretary.

He firmly believes that only by going deep into the grassroots, understanding the needs of the people, and improving working methods can he truly do a good job in Saikun County and win the trust and support of the people.

This experience made Zhou Zhiyuan more aware of Tian Zhongming's foresight and wisdom as the municipal party secretary.

He is well aware that anti-corruption and promoting integrity is a long-term process that requires continuous strengthening of institutional building, improvement of cadre quality, and strengthening of supervision and assessment.

Only in this way can we truly achieve the goal of combating corruption and promoting integrity and ensure that the people truly benefit.

Zhou Zhiyuan also made up his mind to continue to promote the development and progress of Saikun County with greater enthusiasm and pragmatic work attitude, and to create a better living environment for the people.

Qin Xiaonan and Qi Yueting, deputy secretary of the Saikun County Party Committee and part-time secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, walked into Zhou Zhiyuan's office.

After they reported their work to Zhou Zhiyuan one after another, Qi Yueting tactfully left Zhou Zhiyuan's office.

Qin Xiaonan hesitated for a moment and whispered, "Secretary Zhou, there are rumors that Comrade Wen Dong, the director of the Municipal Party Committee Office, has always been giving you a hard time. This time, Secretary Tian took advantage of your absence to inspect the work in the county just to catch you!"

Zhou Zhiyuan shook his head and whispered, "Be patient and be careful with fire. Wen Dong is Wen Dong, and Secretary Tian Zhongming is Secretary Tian Zhongming. They are two different things."

Qin Xiaonan had no choice but to nod repeatedly. After all, she had to support all the work of Secretary Zhou Zhiyuan.

Although Qin Xiaonan and Qi Yueting both knew it well, Secretary Tian Zhongming must have been more or less influenced by his chief secretary Wen Dong and the Wen family.

But they knew very well that they and Secretary Zhou Zhiyuan could not afford to offend the Municipal Party Secretary Tian Zhongming.

Then the compromises and forbearance of Comrade Zhou Zhiyuan, the county party secretary, as well as the big picture, were all for self-protection.

After all, for Zhou Zhiyuan, his wife Zheng Xiaoting and father-in-law Zheng Jianguo are beyond his reach.

Of course, Zhou Zhiyuan’s rapid advancement to the position of county party secretary this time must have benefited from Zheng Xiaoting and Zheng Jianguo.

On the surface, it must be thanks to Qin Mingyue, the mayor of Yuebei City.

This series of relationships also involves the shadow of Governor Qin Mingfei.

Qin Mingfei and Zheng Xiaoting have a special relationship, they are friends in private.

Otherwise, how could Tian Zhongming, the municipal party secretary who was a descendant of Tian Zhongliang, the provincial party secretary, appoint Zhou Zhiyuan?
