Chapter 414 Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee
The next day, Pei Qianqian picked up her two children from Beijing, and the family of four returned to their hometown.
My father’s health was getting worse and worse, and he had passed away at this time in the previous life.
Because Qi Tongwei will visit and express condolences to veterans of the Korean War and the Vietnam War, families of military martyrs, veteran cadres, needy workers, as well as cadres, workers and armed police officers fighting on the front lines on New Year's Eve.
So every year he would get together with his family in advance, and this year is no exception.
After gathering with his family, he will start his New Year's greeting journey.
All the old bosses in the past needed to be visited, and now the leaders of various ministries also needed to be visited. Fortunately, with his status and position, he no longer needed to prepare gifts carefully.
At his level, gifts are no longer important, as long as the thought is there.
Time flies very fast, and the New Year is over in the blink of an eye. Qi Tongwei needs to focus on work again.
2015 is undoubtedly a year full of challenges and great responsibilities for him.
This year is his first full year as provincial party secretary, and the tasks ahead of him are numerous and arduous:
We must not only make every effort to promote breakthrough progress in economic system reform, but also resolutely and thoroughly complete the important task of cracking down on gangsters and eliminating evil, which is related to social stability and harmony; at the same time, special rectification actions against the phenomenon of ghost employees are also urgent.
On the second day after the Spring Festival holiday, Qi Tongwei personally presided over an enlarged meeting of the Standing Committee.
At the beginning of the meeting, he took the lead in leading everyone to carefully study the important speeches of superiors and the profound connotations of "Three Stricts and Three Realities".
After all participants fully understood the relevant instructions and requirements, Qi Tongwei cleared his throat and officially announced the start of the core agenda of this meeting.
"Comrades, the main purpose of this expanded meeting of the Standing Committee is to discuss and resolve the issues of cracking down on gangsters and evil forces, online and offline micro-loans, and special rectification of ghost employees.
Next, please let Comrade Changming report on the specific situation of the Luzhou City case. "Qi Tongwei looked at Comrade Changming with sharp eyes, signaling him to start speaking.
Ji Changming stood up and replied: "Secretary Qi, leaders!
Under the guidance of Secretary Qi, my colleagues and I, after a month of investigation, finally found out a series of cases caused by Handong Hefu Construction Co., Ltd.'s failure to pay wages to migrant workers. "
Ji Changming cleared his throat and continued, "The reason why Hefu Construction Company owed wages to migrant workers was that it invested the project funds into the microfinance company.
The interest rates of these micro-loan companies are very high, especially for offline loans, where the interest rates can be as high as 1 cent.
Due to the impact of this case, we discovered through investigation that Yan Jiaming's underworld gang in Luzhou City used small loans to make extortionate profits, collecting 8000 million yuan in interest on a principal of 9600 million yuan in just one year.
The reason why Yan Jiaming is so rampant is because of the protective umbrella behind him.
After investigation, it was found that the protective umbrella behind Yan Jiaming included 127 people including Luzhou Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee Member and Executive Vice Mayor Liu Xian, Municipal Public Security Bureau Director Mi Fenlong, Municipal Intermediate People's Court President Hu Yanbin, and Procuratorate Deputy Director Li Baoping, including 36 cadres at or above the deputy division level.
Currently, these people have been prosecuted by the Jingzhou City Procuratorate and are awaiting the court’s verdict.”
After Ji Changming finished his report, Qi Tongwei continued, "Everyone has heard what Comrade Changming just said. We can draw several conclusions from this case.
The first is the problem of government officials colluding with gangsters to make huge profits;
The second is the issue of small loans and online loans;
The third issue is that the quality of officials needs to be improved.”
At this point, Qi Tongwei picked up the teacup and took a sip, then continued, "Let's talk about the problem of evil forces first. We formulated a work plan to eliminate evil forces last year. Comrade Huimin, can you tell us what we have gained so far?"
Qian Huimin glared at Hou Liangping, then said, "Secretary Qi, fellow comrades, due to limited time, our public security department mainly investigated clues last year and has not yet truly started to crack down on evil forces."
Qi Tongwei nodded and said, "Comrade Huimin, your work intensity is not enough. Today is the second day of work after the Spring Festival, so I will not criticize you.
But you must realize the extreme importance of cracking down on gangsters and eliminating evil.
From now on, you will need to report to me in detail the results of your anti-gang and anti-evil operations every month. This work will be used as one of the assessment indicators for political and legal work.
If the work of cracking down on gangsters and eliminating evil is not done, a veto system will be implemented!
Comrade Huimin, you must take responsibility.
Those who are perfunctory in their work and passive in their work should be dismissed or demoted decisively, and if necessary, they can be transferred out of our political and legal team. "
Although Qi Tongwei verbally stated that he would no longer criticize, the criticism in his words was still very obvious.
Faced with this situation, Qian Huimin had no choice but to nod and agree: "Okay, Secretary Qi, please rest assured, I will increase supervision efforts after I return to ensure that all work can proceed smoothly."
But this made his dissatisfaction with Hou Liangping even stronger.
Seeing Qian Huimin agreed, Qi Tongwei continued: "After discussing issues related to criminal gangs, the next thing to talk about is micro loans and online loans.
These are also closely connected with the daily lives of the general public.
Take campus loans as an example.
Some college students, due to their young age, lack of social experience and relatively weak self-control, unfortunately become the targets of online loans.
In order to make huge profits from students, some bad campus loan platforms actually ask students to take nude photos. Such behavior is extremely bad!
Therefore, online lending and micro loans must also be strictly regulated.
Comrade Guofu, I told you about this matter years ago. Do you have any specific solution? "
Tian Guofu was obviously well prepared, and he immediately said: "Secretary Qi, fellow comrades!
In accordance with Secretary Qi's instructions, I organized relevant personnel to conduct research on online loans and micro loans. Due to limited time, only preliminary statistics have been made on offline micro loans, which are not accurate enough, but the problem has been exposed.
Regarding online lending, I have two suggestions. First, the loan interest rate must not be higher than the maximum interest rate stipulated by national laws. Once it is higher than this interest rate, it will be regarded as an illegal loan and the lender has the right not to repay the loan.
At the same time, the industrial and commercial departments and the Internet information departments jointly cracked down on illegal online loans, and imposed fines where necessary and detention where necessary.
Legal online loans within the prescribed interest rate must also be regulated and strictly registered, and the interest rates must be transparent and must not mislead borrowers.
As for offline loans, almost all of them are illegal and often accompanied by violence and gangs. My suggestion is to ban all illegal loans and only keep those that are legal, but they should also be banned gradually. "
"Secretary Guofu, will this affect economic vitality? Some companies really need timely emergency assistance from microfinance companies?" Qian Huimin questioned.
He could not say anything about cracking down on gangsters and eliminating evil, but Tian Guofu already had a specific method of manipulation. The contrast was too obvious, so he chose to question the other party.
"Secretary Huimin, choose the lesser of two evils. Besides, even without microfinance companies, we still have banks. What we need to consider now is how to regulate the banks' lending practices, not how to ban illegal offline loans." Tian Guofu was well prepared, so he wouldn't be surprised by Qian Huimin's question.
Qi Tongwei did not speak, but looked at Li Dakang: "Comrade Dakang, what do you think?"
