A Half-Step Winner: Qi Tongwei's Journey to the League

Time flies, and three months have passed in the blink of an eye.

During this period, Li Le and Du Yu ostensibly cooperated with the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection in conducting an investigation into problems in the medical system, but secretly they were thoroughly investigating and dealing with corruption in the medical system.

As the investigation progressed, more and more corruption issues began to surface.

However, faced with these shocking truths, Li Le and Du Yu did not take action immediately but chose to sit back and wait quietly for the best opportunity to eradicate all problems in one fell swoop.

At the same time, after careful planning, Zheng Xipo and his son successfully seized more than half of the shares of Xindafeng Factory, and it finally became their Zheng-controlled company.

After obtaining more than half of the company's shares, Zheng Xipo began to show his fangs. With the help of Chen Yanshi, Zheng Xipo was able to successfully make friends with Sha Ruijin.

At this time, Sha Ruijin had given up his ambition for a career in politics and was instead pursuing money.

When Zheng Xipo approached Sha Ruijin, he met him for the sake of Chen Yanshi, but he was not prepared to help him. He would not do anything without benefits.

Zheng Xipo was a very courageous person. He directly gave 12% of the shares of Xindafeng Factory to Sha Ruijin.

Sha Ruijin was very pleased with Zheng Xipo's tact, and after some hesitation, he happily accepted the offer.

After acquiring shares in the new Dafeng Factory, Sha Ruijin began to use his power to give the green light to the Dafeng Factory.

Therefore, relying on this special relationship, Dafeng Factory almost easily won the right to supply masks, white coats, gauze and other materials across the country, and became the talk of the town for a while.

For a company that has just been established to become a supplier to almost all hospitals in the country, it would be unbelievable if there were no cats and dogs who didn't believe it, let alone shrewd people like Li Le and Du Yu.

As the former deputy mayor of Jingzhou City, Li Le was very familiar with the Dafeng Factory. After confirming that it was a supplier to major hospitals across the country, he basically figured out the problem.

"Director Li, just as you said, it was indeed Chen Yanshi who helped." Du Yu said admiringly.

"Whose connection did Chen Yanshi find?" Li Le asked.

Du Yu explained: "Sha Ruijin!"

"Is it him? Yes, no one else can decide the suppliers of major hospitals across the country."

Li Le frowned and thought for a moment, then asked, "What is the quality of the goods provided by Dafeng Factory?"

"It's very average, especially the masks and gauze. The quality is much worse than the goods supplied before." Du Yu shook his head.

Li Le thought for a moment and asked, "The quality is average, but it can still be supplied to the whole country. Does this involve hunting, corruption, etc.?"

“It’s not clear yet, but think about it, if there was no hunting and bribery, how could Zheng Xipo have obtained the qualification of a national supplier so easily?

You also know that unless the power behind them is incredibly huge, suppliers are generally local companies.

We have thoroughly investigated Zheng Xipo's social background. There is no protective umbrella behind him, only a retired Chen Yanshi.

As for Chen Yanshi, he is just so-so. It is probably unrealistic to say that relying solely on his relationship with Sha Ruijin, the new Dafeng factory can supply goods to the whole country. I don't think his reputation is big enough to do that!" Du Yu explained the reason to the other party slowly.

Li Le nodded slightly, indicating that he agreed with what he said: "Yes, that's right, you are right.

If Chen Yanshi really had that much power and Sha Ruijin really respected him that much, he would not have been just an executive deputy prosecutor before retirement.

So in my opinion, there is a high possibility of some shady dealings of power for money here." At this point, he couldn't help but lower his voice.

Du Yu nodded in understanding and responded, "I understand. I will immediately arrange for someone to conduct an investigation."

Li Le whispered: "As far as I know, Zheng Xipo and his son were just one of the shareholders before and had no experience in managing a company.

Although he obtained more than half of the shares of Xindafeng Factory through improper means and became the boss, his family had no business experience and no talent accumulation.

Today, the Xindafeng Factory has an endless stream of orders and its scale is still expanding. I believe that it must be extremely short of all kinds of professional talents.

I suggest finding two professionals to infiltrate Dafeng Factory. When the time is right, we can then place orders for other items at Dafeng Factory as well. This will count as a credit to the insiders and help them win the full trust of Zheng Xipo and his son.

In this way, it will be much easier to collect solid evidence of their crimes?"

Du Yu nodded and agreed, saying that he would do it immediately.

……

While Li Le and Du Yu were investigating corruption in the medical system, Qi Tongwei began to rectify state-owned enterprises in Handong Province.

After a round of investigation, Qi Tongwei had a distinct feeling that in the state-owned enterprise fields such as finance, electricity, tobacco, and telecommunications, there are serious phenomena of "sons inheriting their father's business" and "inbreeding".

When Qi Tongwei was investigating Handong Rural Credit Bank some time ago, he found that there were 543 people in its head office, but 279 of his close relatives also worked in various branches and sub-branches of Handong Rural Credit Bank.

This is a typical case of class stratification. It may not seem like a big problem, but the impact is extremely bad. Once it breaks out, it will seriously affect the image of the government.

This made Qi Tongwei realize that fighting corruption alone is not enough. Not only is it necessary to fight corruption, but also to carry out a revolutionary change to some vested interests within the system.

"This is not enough." Qi Tongwei rejected the secretariat's plan.

Seeing that the other party was somewhat puzzled, Qi Tongwei explained: “On the surface, applicants are not allowed to have a spouse, blood relative, or relative relationship within three generations with the unit leader.

Doing so can indeed avoid the phenomenon of close relatives holding office to a certain extent and break the hereditary system of positions. However, although this can curb this phenomenon to a certain extent, it cannot fundamentally cure the problem of class stratification.

For example, if I am a leader in the tobacco industry and you are a leader in the banking industry, we can help each other. I can get your relatives to work in the tobacco industry and you can get my relatives to work in the banking industry.

"This... then what do you think we should do?" the secretary asked puzzledly.

Qi Tongwei thought for a moment and said, "These conditions will continue to be maintained, but one more thing should be added: in the future, state-owned enterprise recruitment will also follow the principles of civil servant interviews.

We adopt the strategy of off-site interviews, with the National People's Congress and the Commission for Discipline Inspection supervising the entire process, to minimize unfairness."

Of course, Qi Tongwei also knows that doing so will not completely prevent the children of leaders from taking advantage of the backdoor, but it can indeed reduce unfairness to a certain extent. At the very least, ordinary middle-level leaders will not be able to let their children enter the system easily.

Just like today's civil servants, ordinary county leaders have no way of arranging for their relatives to enter the system.
