Chapter 184: Checking Culture and Tourism Again
The next morning, after seeing the news, Minzhou Municipal Party Committee Secretary Jin Kai frowned and asked, "Is this the news reported by the provincial TV station?"
The secretary nodded and said, "Yes!"
"How can this be allowed?"
Jin Kai complained, "The National Day holiday is coming soon. Isn't this smearing our city's cultural tourism industry and hindering its development? Which reporter is so bold? Old Han (the station director) is really something. He didn't even discuss such a big thing with me before broadcasting it!"
The secretary had obviously done her homework. "Secretary, I checked with the provincial TV station's reporters before I got to work. Jiang Ningyue, the deputy director of the News Center, gave them the footage and asked them to broadcast this news directly. Oh, and the news report also mentioned that Jiang Ningyue and a director from the Department of Culture and Tourism were in the car at the time."
After finishing her words, the secretary, fearing the municipal party secretary didn't know about Jiang Ningyue, explained, "Secretary, Director Jiang Ningyue was sent by Haizhou Province to Shannan Province to assist with construction. During her time in Haizhou Province, Director Jiang was known for her style. During the year she was a reporter, quite a few officials were forced to resign. Some time ago, she even had a member of the Haizhou Provincial Party Committee's Standing Committee imprisoned."
"Jiang Ningyue..."
Jin Kai pondered for a moment. "I've heard of her. Is she the one Secretary Zhang Yan personally invited?"
"Yes." The secretary nodded. "Last year, it was Director Jiang who helped impoverished counties sell goods through live streaming. This year's Mid-Autumn Festival, the cultural tourism boom in Chuanquan City is also due to Director Jiang."
Jin Kai nodded. "Public opinion supervision is one of the mechanisms that guarantee socialist political civilization and an effective means of national governance. Since this problem has arisen, it must be addressed proactively. Contact the Municipal Public Security Bureau and the County Party Committee and County Government now and request that this matter be addressed immediately. Arrange for the Municipal Office to publish the results online before the end of the day. Also, contact Shannan Provincial Television and invite their reporters to come and cover the follow-up report."
"clear."
That afternoon, 'Minzhou Release' announced the results of the handling.
Yesterday, the "Focus on People's Livelihood" program, broadcast on Shannan Provincial Television's Urban Channel, reported on villagers in Shitou Village, Mingwan Town, in our city, who were blocking roads and collecting tolls. The municipal Party Committee and government attached great importance to this matter. That evening, Municipal Party Committee Secretary Jin Kai and Mayor Liu Guangfeng immediately instructed relevant municipal departments and the Limin County government to conduct a thorough investigation into the reported issues. The Mingwan Town Police Station summoned several parties involved in the matter to investigate the situation.
[We have verified that the reported toll booths and toll collection were the actions of individual villagers. Public security authorities have imposed administrative detentions of 20 days, 15 days, and 10 days, respectively, on nine individuals responsible for toll collection. They have also been ordered to return their illegal gains and been fined. The suspects, Wang and Li, are currently under criminal detention. Once the public security authorities complete their investigation and confirm the facts of the crime are clear and definitive, they will transfer the case to the procuratorate.]
In response to reports that Mingwan Town Police Station staff disregarded public interests, failed to respond promptly, and neglected their duties, the Limin County government severely criticized the station's leadership, ordered them to submit a written review and make concrete corrections, and issued a city-wide notice. Auxiliary police officer Wang was dismissed.
Jin Kai, the municipal party secretary, pointed out that the issues reported in "Focus on People's Livelihood" fully expose the lack of awareness and simplistic working methods of a small number of grassroots cadres and the public in our city. All districts and counties in the city should immediately conduct self-examination and rectification, and intensify publicity and education to prevent similar incidents from recurring. At the same time, we welcome the supervision of our work by media at all levels, citizens, and tourists.

[The response was really fast this time! I reported it last night, and it was processed this afternoon!]
【It’s still faster to solve problems online! 】
Reply: [Come on, Yueyue is the one who has the best reputation. If it was a video shot by an ordinary netizen, it would be great if they could refund the money.]
Reply: [Yes! Look at other provinces where this kind of thing happens, and they just say the money was refunded. The local villagers and leaders don't take any responsibility at all.]
[We hope reporter Jiang can come to our site to report! ]
Bureaucracy is rampant in Shannan Province, and media oversight has always been a mere formality. Unexpectedly, Jiang Ningyue's arrival has actually brought about some changes.
[Haha, I guess this program will be discontinued in a while.]
Why is it administrative detention? Shouldn't it be considered robbery?
Reply: [Aren't there two people in criminal detention? Those two should be the ones who asked Yueyue for 1,000 yuan from Shitou Village, right?]
Reply: [I think it’s a bit difficult. One thousand is not enough for sentencing.]
Reply: [Yueyue's one thousand isn't enough, but it's impossible that he's only stopped it once in all these years, right? Isn't it enough to accumulate it? ]

That same day, the political commissar of the Minzhou Public Security Bureau called Jiang Ningyue to discuss the matter and apologized on behalf of the Minzhou Public Security Bureau.
Immediately afterwards, the municipal party secretary Jin Kai made a special call to Jiang Ningyue, inviting her to do more publicity for Minzhou City.
And the people at Shannan Provincial TV Station also felt for the first time the feeling of being the focus of the whole society.
Many reporters even went to the department director to ask, "Director, I think we can also shoot this kind of news. Just drive around in our own cars. There must be a lot of scams in those tourist attractions."
"Don't cause trouble!"
Director Zhang said coldly, "Editor-in-Chief Liang specifically told us at the editorial board meeting this morning not to touch on sensitive topics. Don't cause trouble for the provincial leaders, and don't make a fool of yourself among our colleagues from other provinces!"
After hearing this, the reporters in the department were speechless and said: "Public supervision has become a joke."
Director Zhang said helplessly, "Director Jiang can take pictures, but he left after two years. What about you? You have to live here!"
Many reporters immediately stopped talking after hearing this.
Of course, the most crucial point is that the salaries of journalists here cannot be compared with those in Haizhou.
With so little money a month, why are you risking your life?
In addition to her own inspections, Jiang Ningyue also handed over the investigation to 'Mr. A' and 'Mr. B'.
Mr. A lived up to expectations and immediately sent a message back.

In Shikushi City, Shannan Province, there is a "public toilet designed to trap tourists."
Because the public toilets are built on sand, some tourists accidentally got their vehicles stuck in the sand while using the toilet. If they wanted to tow their vehicles away, they had to pay a high towing fee and asked nearby desert project stores for help.
Other tourists were eager to help, but were rudely stopped by the shop owner.
"Do you have a rescue certificate?"
Tourist: "Do I need a rescue certificate to help?"
Store owner: "You can't tow a car without a rescue certificate! You can't just tow a car casually."
The price of a towing trip is 3,000 yuan!
After receiving Mr. A's video, Jiang Ningyue brought the Law Enforcement Supervision Division of the Department of Culture and Tourism and the Shiku City Public Security Bureau to this "public toilet".
As luck would have it, a tourist’s car got stuck in a sand pit, and the store owner was negotiating—that is, demanding money.
Law enforcement officers apprehended five people, including the boss, on the spot and took them back to the police station for interrogation.
After investigation, it was found that since March 2019, the criminal suspect Di Mouru has been operating a "desert off-road base" near the national highway more than 50 kilometers away from the urban area of Shiku City. He built toilets, yurts and other facilities, hired Li Mou and others as employees, and operated sand off-road, sand sliding and other projects.
When a passing vehicle got stuck in the soft sand in front of the toilet, Di Mouru and others took the opportunity to demand towing fees and prevent others from rescuing it.
At present, our bureau has criminally detained the suspect in accordance with the law, and the case is under further investigation.

Comment section: [I don't believe that the car owner who got stuck before didn't call the police.]
Reply: [Jiang Ningyue never went to Shannan before.]
[It's clearly blackmail.]
The level of civilization in a place can be judged by its toilets.
【What did you do this morning? 】
[This is a way to make money! It could be featured on CCTV's "How to Get Rich."]
[The shot of Jiang Ningyue walking in front of the crowd is so handsome! ]
【My style is different from the people around me.】
