Chapter 195 Deputy Mayor Candidate

On the political stage of Xiyun City, a new handling opinion has been finalized.

Although Deputy Mayor Gong Yongli did not cross the red line of major disciplinary violations, he failed to be honest and self-disciplined in the matter of his son Gong Tinghui, and violated the ethical standards that a public official should have.

During this turmoil, he chose to conceal the truth from the organization instead of facing the problem honestly. As a result, he was used by people with ulterior motives and became a tool for them to manipulate the situation and seek personal gain.

His behavior has undoubtedly exacerbated social injustice and aroused strong public doubts and dissatisfaction about fairness and integrity.

Fortunately, Gong Yongli's son Gong Tinghui did not commit any real crime in the end.

After the incident was exposed by the media, it attracted widespread attention and discussion. After careful discussion and weighing the pros and cons, the Standing Committee of Xiyun City finally made the following decision:

In view of the nature and impact of the mistakes made by Gong Yongli, as well as his personal attitude and reflection, we agree to his internal retirement.

Although Gong Yongli was dismissed, he was still very happy in his heart. At least his son had a new life and no longer had to live under the shackles of crime.

The city’s Public Security Bureau Chief Gong Feng was also given a severe party warning.

The eavesdropping device at the Changming County Police Station had been missing for five years, and no effective investigation had been conducted, allowing criminals to use it to steal the party and government secrets of Changming County for five years.

Also, it is worth mentioning that Di Zhongjun, deputy captain of the Criminal Investigation Brigade, was promoted despite being ill, which is an indelible stain for him as the city police chief.

The officialdom is always a difficult mystery to solve, because the intensity of the competition is beyond your imagination.

The retirement of Xiyun City's Vice Mayor, Gong Yongli, left a deputy-department-level cadre position vacant, a position of real power. Consequently, Xiyun City, and even Yinhai Province, were plunged into a fierce battle for this position.

For deputy-department-level cadres, the recommendation power lies with the Municipal Party Committee, and the candidates are selected by the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee. At this time, the members of the Standing Committee become particularly important.

It was early winter, but Xiyun City was experiencing heat waves.

All eligible cadres were mobilized, some using connections to seek support and support. The scene, which had just calmed down, began to stir again.

The Xiyun County Party Committee secretaries were all vying for the deputy mayoral position, leaving Feng Yuxing alone. He maintained aloofness from the competition for the Xiyun deputy mayor position, as if it had nothing to do with him.

Since stabilizing the social situation in Changming, he has begun to advance party and government work and economic development at a steady and solid pace.

Whether it is government construction or economic construction, he strives to take one step at a time and ensure that every step is taken solidly, so that the development planning and implementation of Changming as a whole proceed in an orderly manner, bringing a new atmosphere of stability and prosperity to Xiyun City.

The position of deputy mayor is selected from the heads of various municipal departments or the secretaries of county party committees, but there are exceptions, such as extraordinary promotion or parachuting. Everything is possible.

Under normal circumstances, most of the promotions are made among cadres within the city, which is also a reward for diligent cadres.

After a month of evaluation and recommendation by the Municipal Party Committee Organization Department, the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee discussed and voted, and reported to the Provincial Party Committee. However, strangely enough, the Provincial Party Committee did not approve the reported candidates.

The Xiyun Municipal Committee had to screen the qualified candidates again, discuss and vote, and submit a report! But they were rejected again, three times in a row.

This move by the Provincial Party Committee left the Xiyun Municipal Party Committee leadership team baffled. They had heard that the Provincial Party Committee was preparing to parachute in, but there had been no news of this happening, which gave everyone a strange feeling.

Yan Baiyang, secretary of the Xiyun Municipal Party Committee, was not allowed to convene a secretary meeting, and the number of people was expanded by one, namely, the Organization Minister Zong Daixiang.

Generally, the secretary's meeting is composed of five people: the mayor's secretary, the mayor, the deputy secretary, the executive deputy mayor, and the disciplinary committee secretary.

After three candidates were rejected in a row, the municipal party secretary Yan Baiyang did not want to convene a standing committee meeting to discuss the issue, but instead started a secretary's meeting to discuss it.

"Everyone, this secretary's meeting is to discuss one matter: the selection of our deputy mayor. Therefore, I've also called on Comrade Zong Daixiang, our Organization Minister. After all, she's in charge of cadre evaluations and is quite familiar with the individual cadre situations!"

Municipal Party Secretary Yan Baiyang said this with a helpless smile, "As everyone knows, we have reported three comrades who meet the requirements in a row, but none of them have been recognized by the Provincial Party Committee, nor have we received any instructions from the Provincial Party Committee. This situation is not only for me, but also for you!"

The words of the municipal party secretary Yan Baiyang are also a source of doubt in everyone's mind.

"Secretary, and everyone else, could it be that these three comrades we reported to the Provincial Party Committee as candidates for deputy mayor have been reported, and we were unaware of this?"

The speaker was Deputy Secretary Nan Yuancheng. After he finished speaking, he looked at the Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission Xing Pengming.

The questions raised by Deputy Secretary Nan Yuancheng involve discipline inspection, so Xing Pengming, as the secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission, has to express his own views.

"Ladies and gentlemen, our Discipline Inspection Commission has conducted investigations into the comrades who reported to the Provincial Party Committee and have found no evidence that they violated laws and disciplines during their tenure.

Of course, there are exceptions to everything. For example, if the illegal and covert means are beyond the investigative capabilities of our disciplinary committee members, that's another matter. However, I believe that the three comrades who reported the case would not have such sophisticated means!"

Discipline Inspection Commission Secretary Xing Pengming expressed his views.
