Life Reset: I’m the Master in the Officialdom

Hearing these words, Wang Ziming couldn't help but feel excited.

He hadn't expected to be promoted on the spot at such a critical moment. This was undoubtedly a rare opportunity. He quickly straightened up and replied, "Yes, Secretary! Please rest assured, I promise to do my best to complete the task and will definitely not let the organization down!"

After arranging everything, Wen Tao shouted loudly: "Everyone else, return to the Municipal Party Committee!"

The next morning, Gangcheng County Deputy County Chief Wang Ziming, accompanied by five representatives from Haoyuan Mining Company, slowly walked into the reception room of the Municipal Party Committee.

"Hello, Secretary Wentao! I am Ji Yuchen, the section chief of Haoyuan Mining. Thank you for your trust in me and for electing me as your representative to report some situations to you." He bowed slightly with a respectful attitude.

Secretary Wen Tao, who was sitting opposite him, smiled and nodded gently in response, "Section Chief Ji, please take a seat and tell me more."

Li Mingyu, director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, looked serious and listened attentively.

Ji Yuchen took a deep breath and began to narrate their experience: "Secretary Wen, the reason why we chose to gather and petition can be traced back to two years ago. We are all diligent old employees of Haoyuan Mining Company. We have been working here when Haoyuan Mining was still a collective enterprise. Later, the company implemented privatization reform, and many workers bought and held shares in the company, and received a considerable dividend every year. Because of this, everyone worked very hard and had hope in their hearts! But who would have thought..." At this point, he couldn't help but frowned, and his tone became heavy.

"Just two years ago, a new county magistrate, Zheng Zerui, arrived in Gangcheng County. Shortly after taking office, he brought in a company called Gangcheng Mining from out of town. On the surface, this company wanted to lease two mines from Haoyuan Mining, but in reality, they had a hidden agenda."

"The workers knew full well that their company's meager development capabilities were far too limited to make any sense out of the mine. After much deliberation, they decided to lease the mine out, so they could at least collect some rent. So, they approached Gangcheng Mining Company, and the two sides hit it off, quickly reaching a lease agreement."

"In the first year, Gangcheng Mining Company performed quite well and was quite trustworthy. They paid the rent to our company's account on time every month. Back then, although the workers had to work harder, at least they got paid and lived a relatively stable life."

"But who would have thought that starting this year, the situation would suddenly change! Gangcheng Mining Company actually refused to pay us a single cent in rent! This is clearly bullying! We certainly can't just sit there and wait for death, so we all decided to go to Gangcheng Mining Company to ask for an explanation."

"Look, a group of workers went to the mine in a big way to demand payment. It turned out that Tong Sanjin, the ruthless boss of Gangcheng Mining Company, was in cahoots with County Magistrate Zheng Zerui! Without a word, Zheng Zerui sent the police over to arrest all of us workers who had gone to collect our debts! Is this even fair? Even worse, Zheng Zerui, relying on his power, ordered the police to shut down our company's previously legal and compliant mine! He even falsely accused us of being an illegal mine! This is simply confusing right and wrong!"

"It's almost the end of the year, and our company's mine has been closed for a whole year! During this year, our workers haven't worked a single day and haven't received a single cent of salary! Everyone's life is almost unbearable. The elderly and children at home are all waiting for this little money to survive! There is no other choice but to spontaneously organize ourselves and run to the county government gate in groups, hoping to find the leaders to report the situation and ask for a fair and just explanation..."
