Chapter 297: Political Questions (Part 3) (1)
At 6:30 p.m. on the 16th, in the dressing room, Jiang Ningyue and Nian Sisi, who had changed their clothes, sat together to put on makeup.
Nian Sisi didn't have many lines, but she was a little nervous. She hadn't felt this way in a long time. For Nian Sisi, who had many years of experience hosting and hosting on large stages, this should have been a small scene.
"Want a cup of coffee?"
Jiang Ningyue suggested.
"No."
Nian Sisi was so nervous that she didn’t eat much that night—although she didn’t eat much to begin with.
Jiang Ningyue smiled and said nothing. He couldn't go and comfort her, after all, she was his master.
Moreover, in such occasions, it only takes a few minutes to calm down because Nian Sisi will find that the people invited are more nervous than herself.
At the same time, at the gate of Haibei Municipal Government, Ning Ping'an, Deputy Mayor of Haibei and Director of the Public Security Bureau, Director Zhou of the Haibei Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau, Director Wu of the Haibei Ocean Bureau, Director Chu, Deputy Director of the Haibei Development and Reform Commission; and the General Manager of Haibei Rail Transit Group and accompanying personnel were already waiting at the gate.
Acting Mayor Wang Ximing walked out of the city hall gate and sighed slightly when he saw this group of people. To be fair, he was planning to go alone. However, this would make the leadership team look disunited, so he smiled and glanced at everyone.
"Let's go, everyone get in the car."
Ning Ping'an walked quickly to Wang Ximing's car and opened the door for him.
Wang Ximing smiled and nodded at him, then got in. To Wang Ximing's surprise, Ning Ping'an also got in.
'well--'
Wang Ximing continued to sigh in his heart, fearing that the journey would be uneasy.
As expected, Ning Ping'an spoke before he even sat down, "Mayor Ximing, why did they call me over to 'Questioning Haizhou'? I'm really confused right now."
Wang Ximing said calmly, "You'll know when you get there."
"Oh, I'm not afraid!"
Ning Ping'an sighed, "But I'm afraid those people down there will cause us trouble. If they say something on the live broadcast, it will be so embarrassing! It will be a loss for the image of our government!"
"Indeed." Wang Ximing nodded.
Isn't it you, the people below, who are messing around? I just took over as acting mayor, and you're all messing around more than the other. It keeps me on edge all day long.
"A blacksmith must be strong himself!"
Ning Ping'an continued, "Your speech at the anti-corruption meeting a while ago was very insightful and inspired me deeply. When I got home that day, I held a meeting with those people to help them understand the spirit of your meeting. At the same time, I also took the lead in disclosing my own real estate and deposits. Integrity should start with me."
Wang Ximing nodded with a forced smile, "Mayor Ning, you're very aware!"
"I still have to continue learning from you. Please feel free to criticize me if I have any shortcomings." Ning Ping'an said with a smile.
Around 7:15, people from Haibei City entered the compound of Haibei Provincial Radio and Television Station. After parking the car, Ning Ping'an got out first and ran to open the door for Wang Ximing.
Liu Tai was the first to greet him and shook hands with Wang Ximing. The few of them exchanged greetings and walked into the venue.
No one rushed to sit on the stage. Wang Ximing didn't want to take that seat until the very last moment. The others were all a bit nervous, but Hou Ningping remained calm and chatted cheerfully with the TV station's senior management.
At 7:30, Cao Cheng, director of the Provincial Department of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, arrived with his staff. He was a rare leader to have been imprisoned twice. He had been there during the second episode, but the focus was on corruption, and no questions were raised about the Provincial Department of Housing and Urban-Rural Development. Consequently, Cao Cheng remained largely invisible throughout the live broadcast.
Therefore, when he arrived this time, Cao Cheng was in a quite relaxed mood.
"Director Cao."
Wang Ximing smiled and shook hands with Cao Cheng.
Cao Cheng didn't bother with the small talk and asked, "Mayor Wang, do you have any questions about housing construction?"
"I just heard it's a problem with the resettlement housing and the community roads. It's a small matter."
"Oh." Cao Cheng nodded. The office staff had already checked the information and made phone calls to verify the specific situation.
The two chatted for only a few words before Liu Zhipeng, director of the Provincial Development and Reform Commission, and Cui Jiandong, director of the Provincial Department of Ocean and Fisheries, also arrived at the scene.
Liu Zhipeng and Cui Jiandong also came over, and the two of them whispered to each other, and then there were four people.
When Cui Jiandong saw the question he was going to ask during today's livestream, his expression changed. "Mayor Wang, what's going on? Didn't I issue a document two or three years ago ordering your city to rectify the situation?"
Wang Ximing sighed, "Director Cui, I just got here! I still have the word 'Agency' hanging over my head!"
Cui Jiandong knew he couldn't ask Wang Ximing this question. He looked at Director Wu of the Haibei Municipal Ocean Bureau and shouted angrily, "Wu Chunbo! Come here! What's going on?!"
Wu Chunbo looked embarrassed and at a loss, "Director Cui, this, this, this...this matter is not something I can decide!"
"You guys are awesome!" Cui Jiandong pointed at Wu Chunbo. He didn't want to say anything more, but he had already decided to pass the buck! The provincial department couldn't afford to take the blame.
"Lao Cui, why are you so angry?"
The voice arrives before the person arrives.
Deputy Governor and Director of the Public Security Department Peng Guowei and Executive Deputy Director Sun Qiang walked in.
After seeing Peng Guowei, several people came forward to shake hands.
Sun Qiang came to Wang Ximing and shook hands with him.
While shaking hands with Sun Qiang, Wang Ximing whispered, "Old Sun! If anything happens later, please help me out."
Sun Qiang smiled and patted Wang Ximing's shoulder. "What are you afraid of? Can Xiaoyue still embarrass us?"
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Wen Chu, member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and Minister of the Propaganda Department, and Yin Yadong, Vice Chairman of the Provincial CPPCC, walked in together, accompanied by several deputies to the National People's Congress and members of the CPPCC.
Seeing the people standing at the door, Wen Chu smiled and said, "Why are you all standing at the door? Come in and sit down!"
"Minister Moon, Chairman Yoon."
With the arrival of Wen Chu and Yin Yadong, all the leaders had arrived and everyone took their seats. The originally noisy and bustling live broadcast room immediately quieted down, leaving only the sound of small discussions.
Although the Provincial Public Security Department was among the parties questioning the government this time, Peng Guowei, the Deputy Provincial Governor and Director of the Public Security Department, refused to accept the questioning. After all, Zhao Heping had not yet given Jiang Ningyue the authority to question the vice-ministerial level.
Therefore, the person sitting on the stage to answer questions this time was Sun Qiang, Executive Vice Director of the Public Security Department, and Deputy Governor and Director of the Public Security Department Peng Guowei was only present as a guest.
The various departments of "Questioning Haizhou" began to debug the equipment and entered the countdown to the live broadcast.
Jiang Ningyue and Nian Sisi also walked out and stood in the middle of the stage.
The studio fell completely silent, with only the conversation of the technical center staff remaining.
Wang Ximing, who hadn't been nervous at first, inexplicably began to get nervous. Ning Ping'an, who had excellent mental strength, also gradually became serious.
Everyone is waiting for the final countdown.
"3"
“2”
“1”
"Walk."
