Rebirth of Minister Qi

Chapter 346 Hidden Dangers in the High-tech Zone

Wu Xuhui was a little annoyed. This was the first time he officially went out for an inspection with Qi Tongwei, and he ran into such a thing. What bad luck.

“Those little monkeys in the law enforcement department think that there is no money to be made from the enterprises here, and they are all key enterprises in the district. They dare not smoke their cigarettes or eat their food when they come here.

I deliberately don't come. I go to the light industrial park and heavy industrial park every day to look for trouble with those low-end industries and those local bosses. There they can be the leaders and give orders. At noon, I can go to a farm house or a nearby seafood restaurant for a meal.

After the enforcement, the local bosses would give them cigarettes, alcohol and shopping cards in order to avoid being fined. As a result, the high-tech zone is indeed a bit out of control.”

Wu Xuhui was much more slick than Ding Jian. He had been in contact with the masses in the police station for a long time and understood the thinking of various law enforcement departments. He figured out the crux of the problem almost instantly.

That is, there is no special law enforcement department in the High-tech Zone. All the law enforcement departments are taken care of by the Jiangbei New Area. The High-tech Zone is a place that leaders pay attention to, and most of the enterprises are strong enterprises. Those law enforcement officers don't look at them in a good face when they come here.

Even if some problems are found during the inspection and a fine or rectification order is issued, it needs to be reported to the higher-ups and approved at every level. Generally speaking, the company will know about it as soon as it is reported and can immediately find the leader to say hello.

If law enforcement cannot be implemented and people don't pay much attention to them, then naturally people from law enforcement departments will not be happy to come.

On the contrary, as Wu Xuhui said, if you go to those two low-end industrial zones, you will find a large number of enterprises, which are relatively small in scale and have many hidden dangers. They are not as well-established as the enterprises in the high-tech zones, and problems are easy to be found during inspections. The heads of those enterprises generally have no background, and their industries are not valued by the leaders, who have enough authority to manipulate them at any time.

When they went there to inspect, the business owners had to serve tea and water, bend down and say nice things, be ready to supply Chinese food at any time, treat them to lunch, and give them some seafood when the enforcement was over.

On one side, you can be a maid, being ordered around; on the other side, you can be a madam, calling the shots. Everyone would make that choice.

Although Qi Tongwei was angry, it was only for a few minutes. To be honest, after becoming a leader, especially a leader who wants to do something, there are many things that make people angry. Some officials are more weird than people can imagine, and even the quality level of some groups of officials is lower than the national average.

Qi Tongwei has been working for so many years and has learned to control his emotions. It took him less than a minute to stabilize himself. The reason why he had a sour face was actually to show it to his subordinates, to let them know that he was very angry and to actively try to remedy the situation.

When he arrived at the office, Qi Tongwei began to wonder if there were any flaws in the system. The corporate supervision in the high-tech zone was obviously very lax.

Otherwise, how could the workers on the construction site be so bold as to hang people up there as if they were just playing around?

If there were regular supervisory inspections, they would definitely not be so bold and would consider the consequences of everything they do.

Given Qi Tongwei's current position, when something happens, he considers not only the on-site rectification measures, but more importantly, establishing a long-term mechanism in the system. Although this sentence has been mentioned in many articles, it is almost a universal golden sentence.

But practice is always more important than slogans. Coming up with an effective long-term mechanism that cannot be unrealistic or too costly is the responsibility of the main leaders of their districts and counties.

The task of the grassroots functional bureaus and township and street offices is to execute, unconditionally, do what the leaders say, and make corrections immediately when something happens to make up for any loss.

Deputy leaders at the district and county levels need to consider how to coordinate and implement the guidance tasks of the main leaders.

For the main leaders of districts and counties, the most important thing is to obey the people's livelihood or economic development tasks assigned by their superiors, and rely on system construction and personnel deployment within their own authority to achieve this goal.

The responsibilities of city leaders are even more different. While obeying the province's strategic layout, they must formulate policies that suit all aspects of their own region. While managing the city's districts well, they must also manage the counties and county-level cities under their jurisdiction on behalf of the province.

In short, leaders at all levels have different responsibilities, different ways of thinking, and different levels of contact with people, but they are all connected at heart.

Twenty years later, a saying was circulating: The Organization Department said that if a county party secretary could serve for five years without any problems, he could become a mayor; and if a provincial capital city party secretary could serve for a full term, he would most likely become a provincial governor.

Qi Tongwei had been wandering around in the political and legal system in his previous life, and had been lingering on one line for too long. He was willing to jump from the political and legal system to the district, mainly to exercise his ability to experience a full range of positions.

Just like at this moment, after Qi Tongwei thought about the deep-seated reasons and changes in mechanisms, he immediately began to write his report. After finishing the report, he appreciated it and got up to find District Chief Jin Xinkai.

District Chief Jin was also very busy. Those who came to report to him were not only the district’s cadres. Qi Tongwei also saw the heads of the city’s functional bureaus. It seemed that he had really begun to perform the duties of a reserve member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee.

When this person saw Qi Tongwei coming in, he tactfully stood up and left, and even said hello to Qi Tongwei.

"Hello Secretary Qi, it seems like this is the first time we meet in private."

Qi Tongwei shook hands with the other party, but he did not know him. He had met him at the city-wide conference, and that was all.

"Hello."

"Then District Chief Jin, I'm going to go back first. Please pay more attention to that matter."

Qi Tongwei looked at the person who was leaving, and couldn't remember who he was for a long time, but he should be the director or deputy director of a functional department in the city, because they had sat in the same area during meetings, and section-level cadres had no chance to sit there.

Jin Xinkai nodded, signaling the other party not to worry, and then watched the other party leave without getting up to see him off. Qi Tongwei understood that to Jin, this was a subordinate, not a peer.

If the person is of the same level, such as the secretary or mayor of other districts or counties, Jin Xinkai will still stand up and see him off to the door. If the person is a leader, then he will also need to see him off to the door of the district party committee or government.

The etiquette in officialdom is actually hidden in very small details, sometimes it is expression, sometimes it is action, and sometimes it is words.

Let’s take an example of Qi Tongwei’s previous life. He was the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau in Jingzhou City, Handong Province, and was only a division-level cadre. During the national training for public security police officers, he met a police officer who had just joined the Ministry of Public Security. The other party was also only a division-level cadre at the time.

Qi Tongwei's manners and professional ability won the other party's recognition. The two had a great conversation during the training at the police academy and later became friends for a while.
