Chapter 303: Issue 3 (7)
Jiang Ningyue nodded. Facing Cui Jiandong's angry attitude, she felt no sympathy at all. Instead, she pressed on, "Did the Provincial Oceanic and Marine Department just issue a document? Didn't they arrange for an on-site inspection?"
"Inspected."
Cui Jiandong nodded with a sullen look, "In 2018, our provincial department sent an inspection team to the site, and the feedback was that the project had been halted. The project leader at the time assumed the Haibei Ocean Bureau had already begun dismantling the artificial island. Unexpectedly, not only did they not demolish it, they continued construction."
Jiang Ningyue laughed after hearing this. "From 2018 to now, more than three years, the Ocean Department has never noticed that they haven't demolished it?"
Cui Jiandong's face was extremely grim, but he also knew that it was indeed the fault of his subordinates. "It is indeed that our Ocean Department has not done its job well."
Jiang Ningyue nodded, and seeing Cui Jiandong admit his mistake, she didn't press the issue any further. After all, even if Cui Jiandong was embarrassed, it wouldn't have any practical significance.
"Director Jiandong, now that you know about this situation, how are you going to deal with it?"
Cui Jiandong picked up the phone and said, "Our Provincial Oceanic Administration will immediately shut down the illegal project and require them to dismantle it on their own. We will also report this matter to the provincial government."
Simply put, aren't you, the Haibei Municipal Party Committee and Government, trying to trick me? So I'm going to file a complaint.
Haibei City's behavior has undoubtedly completely offended a powerful director.
However, within the Provincial Oceanic Administration, there must have been one or more leaders who knew about this matter and even supported it. Otherwise, Cui Jiandong couldn't have been completely unaware of it, nor could he have been so passive.
Jiang Ningyue nodded and looked at Wang Ximing, "Mayor Ximing, can you take care of this matter?"
Wang Ximing picked up the microphone and said, "Lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets. Our Haibei Municipal Government will definitely demolish any illegal projects in accordance with the requirements of the central and provincial governments."
Jiang Ningyue nodded, feeling deeply moved. This Haibei Municipal Party Committee Secretary was indeed incredibly stubborn. He had ignored numerous directives from the central government and provincial departments.
During the review and comments session, a CPPCC member took the microphone and commented:
"Those who don't plan for eternity are incapable of planning for the present. Only with a long-term perspective can we discern the direction, understand the broader trends, and accurately identify problems. The artificial island incident demonstrates the shortsightedness of some leaders in Haibei City. Despite warnings from the central government to provincial departments that this could not be done, as it would cause immeasurable damage to the three national marine parks along the coastline, Haibei City persisted, which is incorrect."
The CPPCC member wanted to criticize the Haibei Municipal Party Committee Secretary passionately, but after thinking it over, he decided not to, as he had already said what he needed to say.
To summarize his words, 'How can such insects develop Haibei?'
Wang Ximing was in a very happy mood. In fact, he knew that this project was led by Tu Zheng. If Tu Zheng stepped down because of this incident, he didn't know how happy he would be.
Although Tu Zheng had been dismissed, he, the acting mayor, would not be appointed municipal party secretary. However, the new municipal party secretary would definitely not be as deeply rooted in Haibei City as Tu Zheng. In that case, he would also be able to live a more comfortable life in Haibei City.
…
Today's "Questioning Haizhou" has so far broadcast three issues: "slow development of the subway", "infrastructure in residential areas", and "artificial island in Haibei City".
The highlight of today is soon to come - Haibei City Public Security Bureau.
Nian Sisi picked up the microphone and said, "Now, please watch the reporter's investigation."
Voiceover: [Recently, residents reported to our program that several entertainment venues in Haibei City were involved in pornography and gambling. Reporters undercovered at the sites, but were told by staff that these businesses had been suspended.]
[Entertainment club staff: "No, we're not allowed to do it anymore."]
[Reporter: "Will there be none in the future?"]
The staff member laughed and said, "How can that be? Just wait until the 17th of next month and come back."
Reporter: "Why the 17th? What's the meaning behind this date?"
The staff member explained, "Don't you know 'Questioning Haizhou'? The next episode will air on the 16th. Just come on the 17th."
In order to ensure that this was not just the staff's one-sided statement, the reporter conducted multiple verifications and confirmed this statement.
Another entertainment club staff member: "No."
[Reporter: "Will it be available on the 17th?"]
The staff member laughed and said, "Yeah, you know what I'm doing! Just come when the time comes."
Meanwhile, reporters have also tracked down a local man with extraordinary powers, known as "Brother Long," who claims to be able to handle any situation in Haibei City. He operates several parking lots, some of which are shabby in appearance, but offer a hefty price tag.
These parking lots are located along the national highway in Haibei City and provide parking services specifically for overloaded trucks.
Parking lot attendant: "You can park here. We'll let you know when you can leave."
The parking lot staff said that they have channels to know when the traffic police will check for overloading, and after the police leave, the truck drivers can leave the parking lot.
At the same time, the parking lot staff also said that Brother Long is very powerful and can solve any issues related to the Haibei City Public Security Bureau.
Reporter: "Can everything be solved?"
The staff member laughed and said, "Yes, as long as you can afford it, anything can be solved."
A driver at the scene said that after giving money to Brother Long, the overloading fine that was originally two or three thousand yuan was reduced to 100 yuan.
Three days later, the reporter contacted the staff member again, claiming he had been fined for speeding. Finally, the violation was successfully cleared for 200 yuan.

Barrage: [Wow~ The director's face looks very ugly. ]
[The Public Security Bureau chief's expression wasn't very good either.]
【Isn't this a very common problem? It happens in every province and city.】
【I swear to never reconcile myself with gambling and drugs! 】
Ning Ping'an's expression was indeed grim. After sitting there for over an hour, he had already understood the basic logic of "Political Live Broadcast." If he actively admitted his mistakes and made corrections, Jiang Ningyue wouldn't make things difficult for him.
But what he didn't expect was that after he repeatedly told them to be quiet and still during this period, they would retaliate against him in this way.
He even mentioned the important date of December 17th!
What an idiot!
Ning Ping'an had already made up his mind. When he returned, he would definitely deal with these rubbish! These guys only knew how to hold him back. If the relevant departments investigated him, they would definitely confess themselves!
Ning Ping'an's guess was quite accurate. Those guys were now under investigation by the Commission for Discipline Inspection and had indeed confessed their crimes. However, he was wrong. He couldn't go back.
Jiang Ningyue picked up the microphone and turned to look at Ning Ping'an, who was sitting in the audience. "Director Ning, what does the video mean by 'recovery on the 17th'?"
