Life Reset: I’m the Master in the Officialdom

Sun Yiguo actually has a good way of winning people's hearts. As soon as the provincial party committee leaders left, he waved his hand and announced that all the leading cadres who participated in the drinking party would have a rest in the afternoon.

Wentao had just arrived in Hong Kong and had not yet arranged a dormitory, so he simply booked a room in a hotel in Hong Kong.

......

Early in the morning of the first day, just as the sun rose, Sun Yiguo could not wait to convene the first meeting of the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee since Wentao took office.

There were only a dozen or so people sitting in the spacious and solemn conference room, but the atmosphere was extremely solemn and depressing, as if even the air had frozen.

Bengang City Mayor Sun Yiguo sat down in the seat that originally belonged to Gao Hanlin without any hesitation.

At this moment, his face was as gloomy as the sky before a storm, completely different from the amiable and smiling look he had when he had dinner with the provincial party committee leaders yesterday.

Wentao silently watched everything in front of him, knowing very well in his heart that at this moment Sun Yiguo had finally revealed his true face, like a ferocious beast showing its sharp fangs.

Sun Yiguo's sharp gaze swept across the crowd, finally settling on Wen Tao. He then slowly spoke, "Comrade Wen Tao, after in-depth discussion and research by our Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee, we have unanimously decided that you will be responsible for the city's safety production work. I wonder what you think about this?"

Although there seemed to be a hint of negotiation in his words, Wentao knew clearly in his heart that this was obviously a layout that Sun Yiguo had planned long ago. Even if he had objections, it would probably be of no avail and he could only accept it silently.

Wen Tao then put on a faint smile and responded calmly, "Mayor Yiguo, I have absolutely no objection to the organizational arrangements. I will resolutely obey the decisions and deployments of the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government!"

After hearing this, Sun Yiguo couldn't help but feel annoyed.

You know, Wen Tao, who has always been known for his endless stream of creative ideas, unexpectedly chose to "give in" this time. If he could come up with some unique ideas, Sun Yiguo would not hesitate to slap him hard in front of everyone, just to show everyone who is the truly capable one!

After all, they have now arrived in Bengang City, which can be regarded as the territory of Sun Yiguo!

According to common sense, such important work would usually be managed by the deputy mayor, but now Wen Tao, the full-time deputy secretary, is put in charge. This is really bullying!

You know, in this city brimming with mineral resources, safety production is no easy task. There's an old saying circulating within the system: "Being in charge of safety production is like having your head on your belt; it could fall off at any time!"

Because once any accident or problem occurs in production safety, Wen Tao, as the person in charge, will inevitably become the primary person to be held accountable by Bengang City.

Surprisingly, Wen Tao seemed unconcerned about the matter. In fact, he knew very well that Sun Yiguo would never assign him any serious work, and even with the safety production work, Wen Tao felt that Sun Yiguo was giving him some face.

With the successful completion of the first agenda of the Standing Committee, the second agenda was immediately ushered in.

At this moment, Sun Yiguo is already rubbing his hands, ready to start the attack!

"Recently, a heartbreaking scene occurred in Gangcheng County - an extremely serious coal mine water seepage accident suddenly occurred, resulting in the tragic consequences of one person's death and three people being seriously injured. At present, this major accident has attracted the attention and close attention of the provincial party committee leaders. Luo Tong, as the secretary of the Gangcheng County Party Committee, is the first person responsible for this incident and undoubtedly needs to bear the main responsibility. Here, I hope that you can express your opinions and discuss together how to properly handle this matter." Sun Yiguo said with a stern face.

At this time, Organization Department Minister Zhai Yanjun spoke righteously: "Whenever such a production safety accident occurs, it fully demonstrates that there is an obvious inaction on the part of local leaders. For such inactive leading cadres, I firmly propose that they be removed from their posts to serve as a warning to others! Only by making those who neglect their duties pay the price they deserve can we truly serve as a warning and avoid similar tragedies from happening again." Her words were powerful and moved everyone present.

Liu Li, Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, then expressed his opinion: "Safety in production is of paramount importance and must be given top priority. Any issue concerning safety in production should be subject to a one-vote veto system! In my opinion, the municipal party committee and government must urgently conduct a comprehensive and in-depth investigation into this accident. If corruption, criminal offenses, or other illegal activities are discovered during the investigation, we must strictly adhere to laws and regulations and impose severe penalties without any leniency! Only in this way can we provide justice to the victims and give the public a satisfactory explanation."

"Human life is more important than anything else! As long as someone dies, we must investigate thoroughly! There must be no leniency!" Pan Linyuan, secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission, said loudly with a solemn face. His bright eyes seemed to be able to penetrate all disguises and cover-ups.

"I think this time we need to not only thoroughly investigate the flooding incident itself, but also address another important issue that cannot be overlooked: Comrade Luo Tong was recently promoted! How did an official like him get promoted? And who was responsible for the promotion? Those responsible must bear joint responsibility!"

As he finished speaking, Pan Linyuan's eyes flicked towards Municipal Party Secretary Gao Hanlin, intentionally or not. Meanwhile, as if by agreement, the other members of the Standing Committee all nodded in agreement, expressing their agreement with Pan Linyuan's point of view. Their expressions were serious, their voices firm, and they seemed determined to completely overthrow Luo Tong, the Gangcheng County Party Secretary.

Although everyone spoke passionately and righteously, Wentao's heart was as clear as a mirror.

He keenly realized that this seemingly righteous criticism might just be a show directed by the Standing Committee members and Sun Yiguo.

Looking over at Gao Hanlin, who had remained silent, he still looked listless and depressed. However, a closer look revealed that his expression had actually turned quite grim.

Wen Tao secretly speculated that there might be a close connection between Gao Hanlin and this incident, and it was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

"Secretary Gao, you're personally responsible for ensuring safe production in Gangcheng County! Besides, it seems like Comrade Luo Tong was also promoted by you, right? So, please explain the situation here to everyone!"

Sun Yiguo spoke slowly, a half-smile on his face, a hint of joking. As soon as he said this, it immediately confirmed all of Wentao's previous suspicions.
