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

"County Chief Lin Yi, isn't it too hasty to investigate Ding Shusheng without solid evidence?"

He Hua understood Lin Yi's meaning and sensed Lin Yi's determination, but he was still somewhat worried.

Because he knew Ding Shusheng's influence in Shitan Village.

Today's near-mass incident is the best proof of that!

Mass incidents are something leaders absolutely dread. Once things escalate and public opinion takes hold, the consequences can be severe!

"County Chief, I have received a report from the public that Ding Shusheng is suspected of serious violations of discipline and law during his tenure as the Party Secretary of Shitan Village, and they have provided relevant clues and evidence!"

Lin Yi revealed his trump card.

“Then let’s investigate thoroughly! I’ll discuss it with Secretary Zhou, and then have Secretary Tieshan arrange for someone to investigate Ding Shusheng.”

He Hua was immediately reassured and agreed to Lin Yi's suggestion.

Because he had heard that Lin Yi had used clues provided by the public to handle cases before and after he was seconded to the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection's investigation team!

It's so accurate, it's practically legendary!

"Thank you, County Head!"

Lin Yi expressed his gratitude and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he had Xiao Yuan as his backer and formed an alliance with County Magistrate He Hua after arriving in Qinghe, he knew very well that investigating Ding Shusheng was not something that could be done with just a few words.

Firstly, Ding Shusheng is the local tyrant of Shitan Village, having ruled with an iron fist for so many years, and he is not someone to be trifled with.

Secondly, Ding Shusheng has acted arbitrarily for so many years, and relevant departments and some leaders must be implicated.

This means that investigating Ding Shusheng will affect a number of people!

County Party Secretary Zhou Hongjian may be transferred after his training at the Party School.

At this critical juncture, he certainly doesn't want any unnecessary complications.

Therefore, Lin Yi set a trap for Ding Shusheng, making him jump into it, and then investigated Ding Shusheng under the pretext that the villagers of Shitan Village were blocking the road and causing trouble.

Finally, he explained that he had evidence of Ding Shusheng's violations of discipline and law, which completely dispelled He Hua's concerns and made He Hua agree to his proposal.

Step by step, with each step linked to the next.

Lin Yi believed that as long as He Hua firmly supported him, the resistance from County Party Secretary Zhou Hongjian would be minimal.

After all, Zhou Hongjian was studying at the Party School, and He Hua was temporarily in full charge of the county's work.

Zhou Hongjian also had to consider Xiao Yuan behind Lin Yi, as well as the power of "public whistleblowing".

The facts proved Lin Yi's judgment correct.

ten minutes later.

He Hua called Lin Yi back, saying that Zhou Hongjian agreed to investigate Ding Shusheng, but reminded him to avoid making a big fuss. He then asked Lin Yi to contact Zhang Tieshan, deputy secretary of the Qinghe County Party Committee and secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission, to discuss the specific plan.

After Lin Yi and He Hua ended their call, Lin Yi immediately dialed Zhang Tieshan's number.

"Secretary Tieshan, this is Lin Yi."

"County Chief Lin Yi, Secretary Zhou and County Chief He both called me just now, asking me to discuss with you the matter of investigating Ding Shusheng, the Party Secretary of Shitan Village. What are your thoughts on that?"

"Secretary Zhang, my suggestion is..."

Lin Yi explained his plan.

Zhang Tieshan agreed almost without hesitation.

Although he felt that Lin Yi was overstepping his bounds, he could only carry out what the Party Secretary and the County Head had agreed to!

Forty minutes later.

Lin Yi took a car and arrived at the compound of the county safety supervision bureau.

In the conference room of the Safety Supervision Bureau.

Chang Yongchun, the deputy county head in charge of safety, Ma Rui, the director of the Safety Supervision Bureau, Shi Zhong, the party secretary of Changshi Town, Fang Ze, the town mayor, and Ding Shusheng all arrived. They were all waiting for Lin Yi to arrive.

The meeting cannot begin without Lin Yi's presence; that's the rule.

Lin Yi walked into the conference room, glanced at the attendees, and then silently walked to the head of the room.

"County Chief Lin, all attendees have arrived. Shall we begin the meeting now?"

As Lin Yi sat down, Ma Rui, the director of the Safety Supervision Bureau, asked for instructions.

Lin Yi asked expressionlessly, "Why isn't Ding Yonggang, the mine manager of the main unit responsible for the accident, here?"

"County Chief Lin, Mine Manager Ding Yonggang has gone to the county hospital to deal with the injured workers. The deputy mine manager in charge of safety at Shitan Coal Mine has arrived. Also, I will convey the spirit of the meeting to Mine Manager Ding Yonggang in a timely manner."

"Scholar Ding, I'm afraid you won't be able to convey the spirit of the meeting."

Lin Yi gave Ding Shusheng a cold glance.

Ding Shusheng raised an eyebrow: "Why?"

"The county discipline inspection commission wants to talk to you!"

Lin Yi gave his answer in a cold voice.

Upon hearing Lin Yi's words again, Ding Shusheng's expression immediately changed!

Although he had realized before attending the meeting that he might have gotten himself into trouble instead of succeeding, the county discipline inspection commission's sudden investigation of him still shocked him!

He wasn't the only one shocked; Chang Yongchun, Ma Rui, Shi Zhong, and Fang Ze were also as shocked.

They stared wide-eyed at Lin Yi, their faces filled with disbelief.

Lin Yi only arrived in Qinghe yesterday to take office, and he's already making personnel changes today?!

Just as everyone was shocked, Luo Chun, deputy secretary of the Qinghe County Discipline Inspection Commission, walked in with two staff members.

"County Chief Lin, County Chief Chang, I'm sorry to have interrupted your meeting."

Luo Chun first politely gestured to Lin Yi and Chang Yongchun, then said to Ding Shusheng expressionlessly, "Ding Shusheng, the County Discipline Inspection Commission wants to ask you to understand and verify some information. Please cooperate."

"Okay...okay, Secretary Luo!"

Ding Shusheng's voice trembled slightly.

Half of it was from shock, and half from anger!

He only asked the villagers to stop Lin Yi's car, but Lin Yi actually wanted to kill him!

Luo Chun stopped talking nonsense and waved his hand lightly. Two staff members from the Discipline Inspection Commission stepped forward and grabbed Ding Shusheng's shoulders, one on each side.

Ding Shusheng turned his head and gave Lin Yi a venomous look, as if to say: You think you can kill me? Not so easy!

Lin Yi met Ding Shusheng's gaze without flinching, knowing in his heart that Ding Shusheng was very unwilling and angry, and would definitely fight back to save himself.

As Ding Shusheng was taken away by the disciplinary committee staff, the meeting room fell into a deathly silence.

Everyone, including Chang Yongchun, lowered their heads, not daring to look at Lin Yi.

They had assumed that Lin Yi's arrival in Qinghe was merely a way to gain experience and prestige.

This is also why neither Ma Rui nor Chang Yongchun reported the collapse accident at the Shitan Coal Mine to Lin Yi!

They didn't take Lin Yi seriously at all!

Now, Lin Yi has used swift and decisive measures to have the county discipline inspection commission investigate Ding Shusheng, the local tyrant of Shitan Village, which has made them feel terrified!

Even Ma Rui, the director of the county's safety supervision bureau, started sweating profusely!

Lin Yi sensed Ma Rui's tension and asked in a cold voice, "Director Ma, has the county safety supervision bureau issued a safety rectification notice to Shitan Coal Mine?"

"County Chief Lin, we are drafting a safety rectification notice, which will be issued shortly."

Ma Rui responded to Lin Yi with trepidation, beads of sweat streaming down his forehead and soaking the back of his shirt. His dissatisfaction and contempt for Lin Yi had long since vanished.

this moment.

He felt nothing but awe towards Lin Yi!

Not only him, but also Deputy County Head Chang Yongchun!

He instantly changed his attitude towards Lin Yi and put it into action, saying to Ma Rui:

"Director Ma, the County Safety Supervision Bureau must issue a safety rectification notice as soon as possible, as instructed by County Head Lin. At the same time, it must be ensured that the Shitan Coal Mine is not allowed to operate until all safety issues have been rectified!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Chang Yongchun glanced at Lin Yi, as if he were secretly bowing to Lin Yi.

Ma Rui wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and nodded quickly: "Yes, County Chief Chang!"

"Now, let's begin the meeting."

Lin Yi took in Chang Yongchun and Ma Rui's reactions and spoke calmly.

In an instant.

All attendees quickly opened their notebooks, listened attentively, and took careful notes.

The second day after taking office.

Lin Yi solidified his authority by investigating and prosecuting Ding Shusheng, the village committee secretary of Shitan Village!
