At the Pinnacle of Power: My Insider Report Alarms Bigwigs in Beijing's Elite Circle

The next morning, at 7:30.

Lin Yi took a taxi to the municipal party committee guesthouse.

Lin Yi entered the guesthouse and, guided by a waiter, arrived at the door of Fu Ming's room, the head of the investigation team, and knocked.

One heavy, two light, three strokes in total.

Soon, Fu Ming's voice came from inside the room: "Come in."

"Director Fu, I'm here to report for duty!"

Lin Yi pushed open the door and entered, seeing Fu Ming sitting on the sofa drinking tea.

"Xiao Lin, Mayor Xiao highly recommended you to me. On behalf of the investigation team, I welcome you to join us."

When Fu Ming saw that the person who came was Lin Yi, he stood up and took the initiative to greet him, shaking hands with Lin Yi with a smile.

The night before last, when Zhong Wei and Lin Yi were chatting, Fu Ming was also present the whole time and had a very good impression of Lin Yi.

Lin Yi expressed his gratitude: "Thank you, Director Fu."

"Xiao Lin, you're too kind. Our investigation team just happens to need someone familiar with the local situation to provide us with information and advice. Your joining us can help us solve this problem. If anyone should be thanking us, it should be me on behalf of the investigation team."

Fu Ming smiled and released Lin Yi's hand, saying politely.

He didn't think Lin Yi joining the investigation team would be of any help to the team; rather, Xiao Yuan wanted to help Lin Yi by giving him a chance to gain experience within the team.

He agreed to let Lin Yi join the investigation team, mainly to give Xiao Yuan face.

"Director Fu, what specific tasks will I be responsible for?"

Lin Yi understood Fu Ming's underlying meaning and saw through Fu Ming's thoughts.

But he also knew that from Fu Ming's perspective, it was normal to have such thoughts.

After all, I work as a secretary, which has nothing to do with disciplinary inspection work.

He offered no explanation, but instead chose to prove himself through his actions:

He's not here to gain prestige!

He wants to personally send those scumbags and degenerates from the Yunshan interest group to prison!

"The investigation team held its inaugural meeting in Shimen yesterday, and a working meeting will be held at 8:00 AM today. At the meeting, the plan for this investigation will be discussed, and personnel assignments will be made."

Fu Ming said.

Eight O'clock.

Lin Yi accompanied Fu Ming to the conference room.

In the meeting room, all the other members of the investigation team were present.

Besides Lin Yi and Fu Ming, there were a total of fourteen people.

As Lin Yi entered the conference room, he could clearly feel that everyone's eyes were immediately fixed on him.

Some people's eyes were scrutinizing, some were filled with doubt, and some were filled with disdain.

Despite the stares from all sides, Lin Yi remained unfazed and took his seat.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is Lin Yi, the only cadre in our investigation team who was seconded from Yunshan."

Fu Ming had just noticed the unusual look in everyone's eyes and understood what they were thinking, so he immediately introduced Lin Yi to everyone.

After he finished speaking, he said to Lin Yi, "Lin Yi, please introduce yourself to everyone."

"Good morning, leaders. My name is Lin Yi, and I work in the Yunshan Municipal Government Office. I am honored to join the investigation team and learn from you all."

Lin Yi stood up and gave a brief and humble self-introduction.

"Lin Yi, this is Jiang Hai, Deputy Director of the Cadre Supervision Bureau of the Organization Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China..."

After Lin Yi sat down, Fu Ming introduced the members of the investigation team to him one by one.

The investigation team was led by one director and two deputy directors. In addition to Jiang Hai, deputy director of the Cadre Supervision Bureau of the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee, the other deputy director was Chen Rui, deputy chief prosecutor of the Third Procuratorial Department of the Supreme People's Procuratorate.

Including Lin Yi, the others were all investigation specialists, from the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee, the Supreme People's Procuratorate, the Discipline Inspection Commission of Dongjiang Province, the Organization Department, the Procuratorate, the Court, the Public Security Bureau, and the Audit Bureau.

After the introduction, Fu Ming led the applause, and everyone else followed suit, but they didn't take Lin Yi seriously at all.

Fu Ming had personally witnessed Lin Yi talking with Zhong Wei, the deputy secretary of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, and knew that Lin Yi had certain abilities. Everyone thought that Lin Yi was there to gain experience, let alone the other members of the investigation team.

Lin Yi could clearly sense that the two young men on his left and right were looking at him with disdain.

That disdain was evident from the moment they first saw Lin Yi.

The two individuals are Lu Liang from the Supreme People's Procuratorate and Shi Xiaorui from the Dongjiang Provincial People's Procuratorate.

"Alright, let's begin today's work meeting. We have two agenda items. First, we'll discuss and formulate a plan for this investigation. Second, we'll assign tasks to the personnel."

After the applause subsided, Fu Ming began to chair the meeting.

"Now, let's move on to the first item on the agenda. Everyone can take turns speaking and brainstorming, but please keep your speaking time to ten minutes."

"Director Fu, let me start by offering my humble opinion."

As soon as Fu Ming finished speaking, Lu Liang from the Supreme People's Procuratorate spoke first, showing a strong desire to perform.

Fu Ming nodded slightly: "Alright, then let Comrade Lu Liang speak first."

"Distinguished leaders..."

After receiving permission from Fu Ming, Lu Liang began to speak.

Lu Liang's speech was clearly carefully prepared.

He had a very clear understanding of the case in which Xiao Yuan was framed. His proposed investigation strategy and plan was to use Wu Yong, the Party Secretary of Guangming Town, and Xia Yuan, the driver of the Municipal Government Office, as the starting points. He focused on how to interrogate Wu Yong, demonstrating his professional skills.

"Comrade Lin Yi, please speak."

After Lu Liang finished speaking, Fu Ming called on Lin Yi to speak.

“You are the only cadre from Yunshan in our working group, and you also served as Comrade Xiao Yuan’s secretary. You should know more about the Xiao Yuan case and the situation in Yunshan than any of us here.”

"Okay, Director Fu."

Lin Yi nodded in response to Fu Ming, and then, under the gaze of everyone, calmly said, "Leaders, I have no experience in discipline inspection work, so I will only share my own views. If there is anything wrong, please correct and criticize me."

Yesterday, I did not attend the founding meeting of the investigation team, so I am not particularly clear about the team's objectives. However, I personally believe that investigating the truth of the Xiao Yuan case is just the prelude to the team's trip to Yunshan.

What our investigation team really needs to do is, through the Xiao Yuan case, uncover the problems in the political environment of Yunshan and even Dongjiang, investigate and punish those who violate laws and regulations, supervise local rectification efforts, warn other officials, and prevent the recurrence of such problems.

Lin Yi paused for a moment after saying this.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became somewhat strange.

The three leaders, including Fu Ming, frowned slightly.

Others held pens, but no one took notes.

They believed that Lin Yi's words were not worth recording.

"They're just grassroots cadres after all; they can't even speak properly."

Lu Liang from the Supreme People's Procuratorate and Shi Xiaorui from the Dongjiang Provincial People's Procuratorate looked at Lin Yi with mockery in their eyes.

Because Lin Yi's speech just now set the bar too high.

Those were the words spoken by the leader!

You're just a junior section chief with some gilded credentials, how dare you speak like a leader? Have you lost your mind?

Lin Yi took all of this in and realized that he had been looked down upon, so he stopped being low-key and started to make a statement that shocked everyone!
