Rebirth of the Rising Sun

As soon as Ding Qiang said this, Song Dexiang's face showed displeasure. "Director Ding, what do you mean by this? Is this something you should inquire about? Besides, haven't you checked the accounts of our Municipal Finance Bureau and said there is no problem? Then why are you still asking such a question? Besides, this money is a loan from you, not a request from you. We will pay it back, not to mention that you will get so many benefits. Why are you still asking so much?"

"Hahaha, of course I have to find out so much. The least I want to know is whether you are really able to repay the money. If I accept your benefits today, and you can't pay it back when it's due, I will have to find a way for you. Don't you think this is something that makes me embarrassed? So I think it shouldn't be a big deal for me to know the truth of the matter." Ding Qiang said to Song Dexiang with a smile.

Song Dexiang did not expect that Ding Qiang was so thoughtful and could see this step. He laughed and said, "How could that be? How could we be that kind of people? Don't worry, the money will be repaid when it is due. Is it okay for me to guarantee it with my personal integrity?" In order to get the money faster, Song Dexiang did not care about telling lies.

"Character? Hehe, how much is your personality worth? You didn't even tell me the truth of the matter, and you want me to believe in your character. Do you think this is possible?" Ding Qiang's face darkened as he spoke.

"Director Ding, what do you mean?" At this moment Song Dexiang also felt something was wrong. He stood up from his office chair and looked at Ding Qiang.

"What you mean? It's very simple. You and Liu Wenhua conspired to lend out 100 million yuan of funds belonging to the state. You wanted to make some interest, but you didn't expect that the money would not be returned after being lent out. So you set your sights on me and wanted me to help you fill this hole, right? Let me tell you, I, Ding Qiang, will not be such a fool." Seeing that Song Dexiang was still pretending to be stupid, Ding Qiang told him part of the situation he had already grasped.

"Ah!" Song Dexiang really didn't expect Ding Qiang to understand everything so clearly. He was a little confused for a moment, "Ding... Director Ding, what do you mean by this? I really don't understand."

"Oh, I didn't realize that Mayor Song is such a good actor. You still don't plead guilty at this point, right? Well, it doesn't matter if you don't plead guilty. Let the comrades from the Discipline Inspection Commission talk to you." After saying this, Ding Qiang shouted to the inner room of the office, "Director Wu, it's your turn next."

After Ding Qiang finished saying this, the door to his office was pushed open, and three middle-aged men in black suits walked out.

When Song Dexiang saw their attire, he felt a little confused. This was the typical attire of the Commission for Discipline Inspection. Could it be that they were from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection? Could it be that Ding Qiang had already reported this matter to the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection? Was he called here just to let himself fall into a trap? But if that was the case, it wouldn't be right. He wouldn't be so ignorant of any news. Besides, he was the executive vice mayor of a city, elected by the Municipal People's Congress. If they wanted to do anything to him at this time, they had to get the Municipal People's Congress to reject his vice mayor status first. But they didn't do that. What was going on?

Song Dexiang was stunned, standing there not knowing what to do. However, the leader of the three discipline inspection commissions walked up to him and took out a certificate from his arms, "Hello, Comrade Song Dexiang, I am Wu Guangrong, the director of the Third Inspection Office of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection. I have received a report that I suspect you are involved in a case of embezzling a huge amount of state property. I need to talk to you now. During the conversation, according to organizational regulations, you are not allowed to contact anyone else, so please hand over your communication tools now."

While talking, Wu Guangrong stretched out his hand and asked Song Dexiang for his cell phone.

Song Dexiang was panicking at this moment. He looked at the three men in black suits in front of him, and then looked at Ding Qiang who was already serious. He said in a weak voice, "You...what are you doing, Director Ding? You can't joke like this."

"Who is kidding you? Hurry up and do what they ask you to do." Ding Qiang said impatiently. Can't Song Dexiang see it now? He is finished, completely finished.

Seeing that Ding Qiang was really going to turn against him, Song Dexiang became agitated. "No, you can't do this to me. I'm the executive vice mayor of Haibei. You can't do anything to me without the decision of the Haibei Municipal People's Congress. And what law have I broken? You dare to do this to me. Aren't you afraid that you will be held accountable and punished later?"

"Comrade Song Dexiang, I have just said that I am not a staff member of the Haibei Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection, nor am I a staff member of your Guangxi Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection. I am from the Third Inspection Office of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection. According to the Constitution, within the areas we inspect, we have the right to take special measures against comrades who violate laws and regulations. So if we want to do anything to you, we don't need the consent of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection, let alone your Municipal People's Congress. Of course, after we have investigated your case, we will also notify your Municipal People's Congress and let them make a decision on your status as deputy mayor. So don't use this matter as an excuse to say anything. Also, you asked us what crime you committed, let's not talk about anything else, just talk about the bribery you just received from Comrade Ding Qiang. We have arranged a recording in this room. Based on this point, you accepted a bribe of 10 million yuan from a state leader in public. This is enough to convict you. Do you understand?" Wu Guangrong explained to Song Dexiang in an orderly manner, word by word.

Hearing Wu Guangrong's words, Song Dexiang felt his body weaken and was about to fall to the ground. Fortunately, two comrades from the Commission for Discipline Inspection quickly supported him, which prevented him from falling to the ground and making a fool of himself. But even so, he was still frightened and couldn't say anything for a while.

"Okay, you two take him to the opposite room. Remember to block the news before the matter is thoroughly investigated. Don't let anyone know about this." Wu Guangrong arranged these things to the two members of the Discipline Inspection Commission in front of him and waved his hand to let them take Song Dexiang out. Then Wu Guangrong turned around and smiled at Ding Qiang and said, "Director Ding, thank you for your cooperation. I really want to thank you for supporting our work this time."

"Hey, this is all Mayor Feng's idea. I'm just doing what he said. Oh, by the way, Director Wu, I heard from Mayor Feng that you two have worked together before, right?" Ding Qiang looked at the matter and relaxed, and couldn't help but start gossiping.

"Yes, that's right. The time I spent working with Mayor Feng was very happy and enjoyable." Wu Guangrong seemed to be lost in memories when asked by Ding Qiang. Thinking about the time when he was the secretary of the county discipline inspection commission in Dahu County, and Feng Sizhe was the executive deputy county magistrate, and later the county magistrate, the scenes of the two working together were indeed very nostalgic.

Wu Guangrong was the reinforcement arranged by Feng Sizhe this time. Feng Sizhe originally wanted to take action against Song Dexiang through the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, but he was not very familiar with the situation in the province, so he finally called his mother-in-law, Li Qiujuan, who was then the first deputy director of the Second Discipline Inspection Commission of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection.

He did not get a better understanding of what kind of person Fang Ming, the secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission of Guangxi Province, was from He Shasha's mother. After all, Li Qiujuan had been working in the Second Discipline Inspection Office for many years. She had a thorough understanding of the secretaries of the Discipline Inspection Commissions in the Central Plains, but not so much about the Southwest. Although he did not know what kind of person Secretary Fang was, Feng Sizhe did get another piece of news. That was Wu Guangrong, who had worked with Feng Sizhe and was recommended by him to the Second Discipline Inspection Office of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, was transferred to the Third Discipline Inspection Office from his normal work a while ago, that is, to the Southwest. If it was just dealing with a deputy mayor and if the evidence was conclusive, then maybe he could do some things with his help.

In this way, Feng Sizhe got Wu Guangrong's phone number and they soon contacted each other. When Feng Sizhe told him his intention, Wu Guangrong cooperated with him to play such a play, and took down Song Dexiang in a lightning speed, cutting off a strong arm of Liu Wenhua, and firing the first shot to uncover the shady scenes of the Haibei Municipal Government.

Liu Wenhua was not aware of Song Dexiang's arrest. He did not call her to tell her about the situation until the evening. Liu Wenhua was so anxious that she called him, but the response she received was that the other party's phone was turned off and she could not get in touch with him. Suddenly, a bad feeling struck Liu Wenhua's heart.

Although Song Dexiang was not very capable at work, he was obedient and loyal. He could not turn off his phone without reporting to him. Could something have happened? So he asked Di Quan, secretary general of the government office, to find the phone number of Song Dexiang's driver and called him.

The call was connected, but the driver said he didn't know what was going on. He just watched Song Dexiang enter the Tangsheng Bank branch and never come out. As a driver, he had no way of going in to find out anything.

Liu Wenhua had no choice but to call Ding Qiang to ask what happened and whether Song Dexiang was drinking with Ding Qiang. But Ding Qiang's response was so unexpected that he never saw Song Dexiang and never called him during the day to ask him to come to the provincial capital. Ding Qiang even asked Liu Wenhua what happened on the phone.
