Chapter 268 Discovering clues
The next morning, Qi Tongwei presided over a meeting of the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee to review Song Jie's plan.
When everyone saw this, they understood what Qi Tongwei meant, and the plan was passed with unanimous votes.
In the afternoon, Qi Tongwei, Chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress, presided over another meeting to review and approve Song Jie's urban plan.
The next step is just to go through the process at the provincial level and the plan will be finalized.
Doing so also lays the foundation for Greenvine's future development direction, which is of great significance.
After the plan is finalized, the next step will be to hand it over to the host Song Jie.
Qi Tongwei didn't want to have a "Tom Ding" himself, so he had a pre-appointment talk with Song Jie.
“Song Jie, the High-tech Development Zone is crucial to the development of Luteng.
You must control the direction well, and never allow polluting enterprises to move in, nor allow major enterprises to engage in real estate in disguise." Qi Tongwei said earnestly.
Song Jie nodded in agreement at first, but then showed a hint of doubt.
He looked at Qi Tongwei and asked curiously, "Secretary Qi, I can understand why polluting enterprises are not allowed to move in. After all, this is related to the environment and the health of residents, but why do we still have to restrict real estate?"
Qi Tongwei also understood Song Jie's idea. As we all know, real estate is one of the industries that can best boost the local economy and is also the easiest enterprise to develop.
But Qi Tongwei was not planning to do so at Luteng.
In his view, the real estate economy is a so-called exploitative economy, in which the government, real estate developers and real estate speculation groups profit, while ordinary people suffer.
Many ordinary people may not be able to afford a house even after working diligently all their lives, so he must deny the real estate economy from the very beginning and focus on high-tech industries.
Of course, these words are not suitable to be spoken out, even if the person is one's confidant.
Qi Tongwei thought for a moment, organized his words and said, "The high-tech industry, in the final analysis, is a competition for talent.
If we want to attract outstanding talents, relying solely on patriotism is far from enough, we also need to provide corresponding material conditions.
Among these material conditions, the most important are education and housing.”
Qi Tongwei paused and continued, "Let's not talk about education, let's take housing as an example.
At present, housing prices have begun to show an upward trend. If real estate developers are allowed to move into high-tech development zones, housing prices will inevitably soar.
As a result, even if we have the best science and technology park, it will be difficult to attract a large number of talents.
Therefore, we must take measures to control housing prices and ensure that talents can live and work in peace and contentment.
Only in this way can we attract talents and stand out in the national competition.”
After hearing this, Song Jie suddenly realized and understood Qi Tongwei's good intentions.
He nodded and said that he would strictly implement Qi Tongwei's instructions and resolutely prevent polluting enterprises from moving in. At the same time, he would also restrict the behavior of real estate developers and protect the ecological environment and talent attraction of the high-tech development zone.
Qi Tongwei was familiar with Song Jie and could guess his weakness, so he immediately told him, "Once the High-tech Development Zone enters the implementation phase, I'm afraid there will be an endless stream of people looking for you.
The temptations you face will be beyond your imagination, and the methods of those businessmen will be far beyond your expectations.
We must stick to the bottom line and never cross the red line. When bidding, there must be no bidding rigging, bidding collusion, bidding transfer, etc. "
"Yes, Secretary Qi." Song Jie answered firmly. Although he also liked money, he loved power more. He could still tell which was more important.
"You can contact me if you encounter any problems that you cannot handle. If you are tricked by some unscrupulous businessmen, don't be foolish and follow their requirements. Tell me in time and then seek a solution." Qi Tongwei solemnly instructed.
Song Jie said firmly: "Secretary Qi, don't worry, I will never do the above."
Qi Tongwei patted him on the shoulder and said, "You have only been here for a few years, and you are not a saint. How can you beat those businessmen who are always watching you? You may also make mistakes due to negligence.
What I want to tell you is, if you are set up by someone, don’t try to hide it. The truth will come out sooner or later.
You also know that since those people have dragged you into this, it is impossible for them to just let you do one thing.
After the first time, there will be a second time, and then countless times, and finally there will be no return.
So once it happens, tell me exactly what happened."
After discovering that Song Jie did not realize the seriousness of the matter, Qi Tongwei reminded him again.
Seeing Qi Tongwei so serious, Song Jie also became serious and nodded heavily to indicate that he had taken note of it.
After Qi Tongwei pondered for a moment, he told Song Jie earnestly: "Listen, in your current situation and position, the people you need to be most vigilant about are your comrades, classmates, relatives, friends and family.
Those businessmen will stop at nothing to achieve their goals, using a variety of tricks, and will even hire psychologists to study the target person until they succeed in winning him over.
How about this, you go find Comrade Zhang Yongqian from the Anti-Corruption Bureau later. He is an expert in this area and has handled many similar cases.
You should ask him for advice so as not to fall into the trap set by others unknowingly. "
"I understand, Secretary Qi." Song Jie burst into tears of gratitude, knowing that this was Secretary Qi's care and love for him.
"Secretary Qi, if these businessmen can put all their energy from winning over officials into running their business, what can't they accomplish?
Why would they do such illegal and criminal activities?" Song Jie said with deep emotion.
"Who knows? Collusion between officials and businessmen has existed since ancient times. Perhaps it can only be eliminated when the economy is highly developed and the people's rights to participate in politics are effectively guaranteed." Qi Tongwei had no way to answer this question.
He also knew that what he had just said was nonsense, and that this right might never be achieved.
The two chatted for a while, and Qi Tongwei combined what he saw and heard in his previous life and talked about many ways to prevent corruption.
After Qi Tongwei's repeated reminders, Song Jie also began to take this issue seriously.
At this moment, he suddenly thought of his old comrade whom he had not seen for many years, and had a bad feeling.
His old comrade was with him in the recruit company, and then he was with him in other companies. They did not separate completely until the other party was demobilized four years later. The two had a very good relationship.
Before, he was just excited and full of joy at meeting old comrades again, and didn't think too much about it. But now, it seems strange.
Thinking of this, he told Qi Tongwei about his suspicions.
Who is Qi Tongwei? He was the Public Security Director in his previous life. He also presided over the investigation of many anti-corruption cases in this life. He immediately discovered something strange.
He felt that the other party was obviously targeting Song Jie.
"He introduced you to a technology company that wants to move into the high-tech industrial development zone?" Qi Tongwei asked.
"Well, I have been busy with the work you assigned to me these two days. In addition, the high-tech zone has not yet been approved by the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal People's Congress, so I haven't had time to review and approve it." Song Jie replied.
"Did you collect the things? Did the other party go to your house?" Qi Tongwei asked worriedly.
Song Jie replied: "I have never accepted it, but I have had dinner and sung songs with my comrades and Pang Shuai, who was introduced by him.
There was one situation where Pang Shuai came to my house and gave my wife a set of cosmetics. I thought a set of cosmetics was only a few hundred yuan, so I didn’t care. ”
"Don't make it public for now. I happen to be going to the province to review and approve documents during this period. You can come with me and I will arrange for someone to investigate Pang Shuai's situation." Qi Tongwei instructed.
Song Jie quickly agreed and decided to pack up his cosmetics when he got home tonight to avoid making any mistakes.
