Rebirth of Minister Qi

Chapter 876: The End of the Patrol

When Qi Tongwei heard the high-profile speech, he knew that it was his turn to speak as the speaking order had already been decided, so he took out his speech and turned on the microphone.

"The decision by the higher authorities to conduct disciplinary investigations on Huang Miao, Li Maotai and others for suspected serious violations of discipline and law fully demonstrates our party's clear attitude of no forbidden zones, full coverage, zero tolerance, and fighting corruption wherever it exists. It also sends a strong signal that we will not stop, will not retreat, and will carry the fight against corruption to the end.

Party members and cadres across the province must be deeply vigilant, take this case as a mirror, correct their attitudes, face problems squarely, better understand the requirements of comprehensive and strict governance of the Party, draw a clear line between themselves and corruption, establish a correct view of power, and use power fairly, in accordance with the law, for the people, and with integrity.

We must not dare to be corrupt, cannot be corrupt, and do not want to be corrupt, and we must resolutely fight a tough, protracted, and overall battle against corruption..."

Even though Qi Tongwei had some practice in brainstorming work in the past two years, he still felt dry-mouthed after reading this long series of parallel sentences. He secretly sighed in his heart that he should not have taken the speech prepared by the cadres of the Second Supervisory Office.

The top students in my office are familiar with my work habits. They can only write one or two parallel sentences, and their speeches can only be one or two thousand words at most.

This speech has at least 7,000 words. I was really careless. My saliva was dry after talking so much. As soon as I finished the speech, Qi Tongwei picked up the water cup in front of him and took a sip.

After Qi Tongwei finished his speech, the members of the Standing Committee of Zhongjiang Province gave a huge round of applause, which made Qi Tongwei feel a little emotional. He was sitting in Zhong Zhengguo's position at this moment. All the members of the Standing Committee were watching Qi Tongwei speak, as if he was the Secretary of the Zhongjiang Provincial Party Committee at this moment.

Qi Tongwei sat back in his seat with a smile. To be honest, this position was not what he wanted. He had his own goals in the Discipline Inspection Commission. Perhaps next year, he might be given the position. Qi Tongwei's goal from the very beginning was where he started.

The week-long inspection ended quickly. Although a lot of work had not been completed, Qi Tongwei had to rush back to his daily work.

Before going back, Qi Tongwei was going to hold a small meeting with the two deputy team leaders of the inspection team, the team leaders, and the cadres of the second inspection office headed by Hu Haiou to discuss the follow-up finishing work.

"Comrades are here, let's have a small meeting."

During this period of inspection, everyone witnessed Qi Tongwei's skills. He could make things happen with a wave of his hand. Now the entire situation in Zhongjiang Province has changed. Who would dare to underestimate this imperial envoy, no matter how young he looks?

The position of the top leader of the provincial party committee is temporarily vacant. Governor Ding Jian has recently devoted himself to the work of protecting farmland. He has clarified the farmland protection zones and areas in each county and began to implement the policy on a large scale.

This is what Qi Tongwei was worried about, so he started talking.

"Comrades, the task of our inspection team is to urge local governments to implement policies to protect arable land.

But you can see the reality, how many counties we have visited during this period.”

Qi Tongwei said this and looked at his subordinates, hoping that they would continue speaking.

Yi Xuexi was very proactive and was the first to speak. He had spent the longest time in the countryside during this period. Under the strong sun in June, he was tanned. Qi Tongwei was quite satisfied with his work status. He heard that Yi Xuexi was famous in the counties below. Whenever he went to a place, he would ask questions that left the local cadres speechless.

This person has not yet taken office, but he has already taken on the role of the Discipline Inspection Commission Secretary.

"Team Leader Qi, leaders.

During this period, I went to twelve county-level areas in the countryside, visited many places, and saw some situations. I would like to share them with you leaders.

A common situation exists in the six counties in the south that various industrial parks are rampant. There are ones in every county, and they occupy a particularly large amount of land. Some lands are not used at all. Some industrial parks do not even have any enterprises stationed in them. They just forcibly change agricultural land into industrial land, which they call reserve land.

I believe that this batch of land can be cleared and returned after overall planning.

It is estimated that there are at least 70 counties in the province that have excess storage of industrial land, and the amount of land that needs to be returned and restored to arable land is definitely not small.

But the specific data still needs further investigation.”

Qi Tongwei nodded with satisfaction. Yi Xuexue was very persistent in doing things. Even in the scorching sun, he wanted to go and see for himself, carefully read the county information, and visit the site to see what the output value of these enterprises was and whether they were producing anything.

As to whether some of the occupied lands were useful or whether the amount was excessive, Yi Xuexue arranged for each team member to confirm the details before drawing a conclusion.

"Very good, Deputy Team Leader Yi is down-to-earth and does detailed research, we should all learn from him.

Deputy Team Leader Yi, for this work, I plan to let you stay in Zhongjiang for one more month to compile a thorough statistics of the situation in each county. I want you to get the data accurate for every county.

Regarding idle industrial land, it should be included in the scope of returned arable land. A county should determine how much idle industrial land it has, which ones are useful, and which ones can be returned as arable land, and list the data accurately if necessary.

Mark it on the remote sensing map. In short, this work must not be done in a vague way.

Some industrial parks have development potential, so we will leave some of them and return the rest to farmland.”

This part of the work is very tedious, and Qi Tongwei has high requirements, so it may not be completed in one month. However, Yi Xuexue's transfer will be initiated soon, so letting him get more familiar with the work in Zhongjiang Province is also the result of discussion between Qi Tongwei, Ding Jian, and Zhang Shenglong.

Yi Xuexi continued to express his position.

"Okay, team leader, after the meeting we will make a detailed plan and try to visit all 80 counties in Zhongjiang Province..."

Then he was stopped by Qi Tongwei. The more he talked, the more outrageous it became. How was it possible to travel to more than 80 counties in one month?

“Okay, okay, after going through so many counties, it’s unlikely.

Your task is to investigate the situation in each county in detail. It is not realistic to rely on the inspection team with so few people. The task should be delegated to each city.

Governor Ding informed me that their province will set up a leading group for farmland protection and establish a special office.

You should pay attention to this matter and assign tasks to their leading group. Make clear the requirements and details you have summarized, and ask them to select personnel from various cities to set up corresponding offices and then summarize the data.

In each prefecture-level city, you should select one or two counties to inspect, especially those where the data seems to be wrong.

The task of returning the reserved industrial land will be yours, Deputy Team Leader Yi."
