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

The next day, Lin Yi returned to Southeast, but instead of going directly to Nanxia, ​​he went to Nanfu, the provincial capital, to report on his studies to You Changqing, the provincial party secretary, and Li Feng, the provincial organization minister.

When assigned to study by the leader, provide feedback on your learning progress, give the leader emotional support, and let the leader feel the sense of accomplishment of nurturing a talented person. This is the basic operation for every person who makes progress!

You Changqing and Li Feng had already heard about Comrade Lin Yi's two astonishing feats at the Party School!

Among them, You Changqing remained calm, pretending not to know anything and offering no comment, only telling Lin Yi to go back and work hard.

Li Feng, the provincial organization minister, praised Lin Yi to the skies, saying that Lin Yi had an unbelievable macro strategy and had brought honor to Southeast Province!

Lin Yi smiled and left Li Feng a small gift he had with him. Then he went to visit Governor Cao Guotao, had a cup of 1982 Da Hong Pao tea with him, and chatted for a few minutes.

After doing all this, Lin Yi took a car back to Nanxia.

Where will Secretary Lin go next?

When Lin Yi officially returned to his post, almost all the cadres in Nanxia were curious about this.

Everyone knew that Lin Yi, having completed the training program for young and middle-aged cadres, would be promoted once the time came.

Amidst various speculations and waiting, the year draws to a close.

this day.

Lin Yi received a notice from the Municipal Party Committee Office that Tian Yong, Vice Minister of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, was going to Nanxia City for research. Liao Huasheng, Vice Governor of Southeast Province in charge of infrastructure, Chen Yunfan, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, and Qiao Huihuang, Mayor, would accompany him on the research trip.

Lin Yi was not required to accompany the research team, but he was required to attend the symposium held in the municipal party committee meeting room after the research was completed.

At 2 p.m. that day, Chen Yunfan and Qiao Huihuang went to the highway entrance to greet Tian Yong and Liao Huasheng and their entourage. They accompanied them on their research trip in the afternoon and held a high-level reception in the evening.

The next morning at 9:50.

Lin Yi arrived at the conference room of the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee building, preparing to attend the symposium to be held at 10:00 a.m.

In the conference room, Executive Vice Mayor Jiang Zhipeng, Standing Committee Vice Mayor Jiang Zhiguang, Vice Mayor Chu Peng in charge of infrastructure construction, Party Secretaries and Mayors of various districts, Party Working Committee Secretaries and Management Committee Directors of various industrial parks, as well as relevant representatives were all present.

When Lin Yi entered, everyone greeted him.

Lin Yi nodded slightly, sat in his seat, and waited for Tian Yong and the others to arrive.

At 10 o'clock, Chen Yunfan, Qiao Huihuang, and Liang Xiaodong, the secretary-general of the municipal party committee, accompanied Tian Yong and his entourage into the conference room. Lin Yi and everyone else stood up and applauded to welcome them.

Tian Yong is the first-ranked vice minister of the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development. He brought a total of six people with him on this research trip: the directors of the Housing Reform and Development Department, the Housing Security Department, and the Real Estate Market Supervision Department; and the deputy directors of the Urban and Rural Planning Department, the Construction Market Supervision Department, and the Urban Construction Department.

This team's lineup is terrifying!

Tian Yong waved his hand to signal everyone to take their seats in turn, and the meeting began, chaired by Chen Yunfan.

Because Chen Yunfan is both the municipal party secretary and a member of the provincial party committee standing committee, his status and position are higher than those of Vice Governor Liao Huasheng, and he is also the host of the event.

"Comrades, first of all, let's welcome Minister Tian Yong and his delegation to Nanxia City for research with warm applause!"

When Chen Yunfan made the suggestion, everyone applauded in welcome.

"Respected Minister Tian Yong, comrades, on behalf of the Nanxia Municipal Party Committee, I would like to report on the economic performance of Nanxia City throughout the year. In 2015, under the correct leadership of the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government, the city actively responded to the complex and volatile domestic and international economic situation, adhered to the 'Four Comprehensives' strategic layout, aimed to build a 'Five Development' demonstration city, accelerated the creation of a first-class business environment, promoted reforms in key areas, achieved phased results in the Free Trade Zone, made new progress in the 'Belt and Road' initiative, and deepened cross-strait exchanges and cooperation. The city's economy and society maintained a good momentum of development, and new breakthroughs were achieved in industrial transformation and upgrading. Nanxia became one of the first batch of pilot cities for domestic trade circulation system reform, a national comprehensive pilot city for modern service industry, a national information consumption demonstration city, and a social integration demonstration pilot city."

全市经济总体保持快速增长态势。四个季度累计GDP增幅预计分别为增长6.4%、7.8%、8.8%和10.2%。经济总量迈上新台阶，实现地区生产总值4266亿元。财政总收入和地方级财政收入增幅预计居全省第二……”

After the applause subsided, Chen Yunfan picked up the prepared speech from the Municipal Party Committee Office and began his report.

When discussing GDP growth and fiscal revenue, Chen Yunfan noticeably raised his voice and emphasized his point.

His achievements include improved GDP growth every quarter and a significant increase in fiscal revenue.

This achievement was mainly obtained through shantytown renovation projects, real estate development, and infrastructure investment and construction!

After Chen Yunfan finished his report, Qiao Huihuang gave a special report on the city's investment in shantytown renovation, real estate, and infrastructure construction.

Liao Huasheng, as a provincial leader, did not give a report. Next, the selected representatives spoke from different perspectives about the shantytown renovation project and the development of the real estate industry.

"Director Zhou, you and your colleagues would also like to share your impressions of yesterday's research."

After the report and speeches from Nanxia City concluded, Tian Yong personally called on the directors and deputy directors of the various departments who had accompanied him on the investigation to speak.

"Yes, Minister Tian."

Director Zhou, seated to Tian Yong's left, first responded to Tian Yong, then began to praise: "Yesterday, I accompanied Minister Tian on a research trip to Canghe District and Changtian District of Nanxia City to investigate the progress of shantytown renovation, real estate development, and urban infrastructure construction. Having just listened to the reports from Secretary Yun Fan and Mayor Huihuang, I am truly delighted by Nanxia's rapid development. Nanxia City has comprehensively implemented the shantytown renovation program and achieved remarkable results..."

Not only Director Zhou, but also the other two directors and three deputy directors praised it highly, wishing they could tout Nanxia City's shantytown renovation and real estate development as a national benchmark!

Lin Yi was not surprised by this result.

Because after receiving a call from the Municipal Party Committee Office yesterday, he investigated Tian Yong's background and learned that Tian Yong and Chen Yunfan were in the same camp.

Under these circumstances, Tian Yong's decision to lead a team down for research was definitely to support Chen Yunfan!

For Lin Yi, whether Tian Yong stood up for him or not was unimportant, as long as he didn't cause him trouble.

"Comrades, when I arrived in Nanxia yesterday, my first impression was that the city was vibrant and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment—this is what a modern city should look like. Through yesterday's investigation and the reports and speeches just now, it is clear that Secretary Yunfan, leading the municipal party committee leadership team, has focused on key tasks such as promoting the implementation of major projects, attracting investment, and renovating shantytowns. In particular, the shantytown renovation work has been carried out with great momentum and speed, and the work has been done exceptionally well, achieving remarkable results."

Of course, some minor problems arose during the early stages of the shantytown renovation project in Nanxia City, which sparked considerable public discussion online. I specifically investigated the problems that existed in the Canghe District shantytown renovation project at the time and the current rectification status, and reviewed the relevant meeting minutes and records of the Nanxia Municipal Party Committee, and discovered a serious problem.

At this point, Tian Yong's gaze suddenly swept towards Lin Yi, "Some comrades in the Nanxia Municipal Party Committee, who are not in charge or in charge of the shantytown renovation work, are, for some unknown purpose, going against the grain, making irresponsible remarks about the central government's policies, and creating various obstacles for this work!"

As soon as Tian Yong said those words, almost everyone turned their attention to Lin Yi.

Although Tian Yong did not name names, everyone knew that he was criticizing Lin Yi in public!

As if to confirm their judgment, Tian Yong continued, "Facts show that some comrades do not understand the supply and demand relationship in the real estate market and the progress of urbanization in our country. They talk theory on paper and make empty promises. Not only are their understandings wrong, but their ideological awareness is also seriously flawed!"

"Minister Tian, ​​which comrade are you referring to?"

As soon as Tian Yong finished speaking, Liao Huasheng suddenly asked a question, as if he was deliberately playing along.

Tian Yong said coldly, "Comrade Lin Yi, Secretary of the Nanxia Municipal Party Committee and Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission!"

"May I ask Minister Tian, ​​what constitutes 'recklessly criticizing central government policies'? What constitutes 'obstructing the shantytown renovation work'?"

Seeing that Tian Yong was supporting Chen Yunfan and then turning his attention to him, Lin Yi didn't hold back and immediately reverted to his usual confrontational style!

What are you pretending for in front of me, a vice minister of the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development?

Before Tian Yong could reply, Lin Yi took the initiative and questioned, "Your Excellency Minister Tian, ​​the shantytown renovation project is a project that wins the hearts of the people. The fundamental purpose of the renovation is to improve the living conditions of the masses, while also improving urban functions and the urban environment. Ultimately, it is to serve the people! The demolition compensation plan for the shantytown renovation in Canghe District is unreasonable and infringes on the interests of the people. There is a transfer of benefits between real estate developers and relevant leading cadres. I suggest investigating and punishing the cadres who violate discipline and the law. Is there a problem with that?!"

"Uh……"

Seeing Lin Yi unleash his fury, most of the people present were stunned, secretly marveling at how awesome Lin Yi was!

In the history of Nanxia, ​​Lin Yi is the first person to dare to confront a ministry leader like this!

Qiao Huihuang frowned slightly, realizing that Tian Yong's visit to Nanxia was very likely arranged by Chen Yunfan, which would inevitably escalate the struggle!

Chen Yunfan and Liao Huasheng sneered inwardly, thinking that Lin Yi had taken the bait.

Tian Yong, however, said righteously, "Comrade Lin Yi, in those three meetings you did not only mention the issue of shantytown renovation in Canghe District! I will truthfully report your previous speeches and this speech to the ministry and the leaders in charge. Whether it is unwarranted or not, the matter will be settled."

"I am looking forward!"

Lin Yi smiled slightly, taking in everyone's reactions.

It's going to rain, and my mother is going to get married.

If Chen Yunfan wants to detonate a grenade and commit suicide, then we can only grant Chen Yunfan's wish!
