Names: Uncle Zhao Mengsheng, Father-in-law Pei Yihong

Chen Yanshi shook his head. "Governor Qi, thank you for saving this old man. I was upholding justice for the workers of Dafeng Factory."

Qi Tongwei's eyes were clear as he faced Chen Yanshi directly. "Old Chen, the fire crisis just happened in the blink of an eye. You saw it with your own eyes. It was caused by Dafeng Factory's unauthorized stockpiling of flammable and explosive dangerous goods."

Today's fire almost caused a major safety accident.

You keep talking about the fairness of workers, but these are not ordinary workers.

They are all shareholders of Dafeng Factory, even managers, and major shareholders.

Just now, Wang Wenge, the leader of the factory security team, gambled with the lives of so many people. Is this upholding rights or creating chaos?

Qi Tongwei's tone was not heavy, but every word he spoke was authoritative, and he had a perfect sense of proportion.

Chen Yanshi's face stiffened, and he was speechless for a moment.

He felt that he had spent his whole life advocating for the people and could not bear to see the suffering of the common people, but he could not deny the established facts before him.

Seeing this, Li Dakang stepped forward and added, "Old Chen, Governor Qi is right."

Reason and emotion are one thing, rules and regulations are another; a country has its laws, and a family has its rules.

Chen Yanshi snorted coldly, "Secretary Li Dakang, have your laws and regulations governed the workers of Dafeng Factory?"

Li Dakang was not polite at all, "Old Chen, there are court judgments, regulatory channels, and petitioning channels for the Dafeng Factory dispute. All roads lead to justice."

But instead of taking the right path, they insist on gathering crowds to cause trouble and threatening others. This is not protecting rights, it is manipulating the people to disrupt the government!

If everyone follows this approach and uses extreme measures to force the government to change its mind, where will the order be in Jingzhou?

What future does Jingzhou hold?

Li Dakang felt helpless, only to realize that Chen Yanshi had once been a department-level cadre.

Now, it's easier to be swayed by personal relationships.

If Zheng Xipo were younger, Li Dakang would probably suspect that Zheng Xipo was Chen Yanshi's illegitimate son.

Feng Liqun followed closely behind, his attitude exceptionally firm: "Old Chen, we respect your past achievements and admire your original aspiration to serve the people wholeheartedly."

However, merits and demerits should not be confused, and human sentiments should not supersede legal principles.

The nature of the Dafeng Factory incident has changed today.

What started as a simple labor dispute escalated into a mass disturbance of public safety.

Our provincial government's stance is very clear: zero tolerance, no leniency!

Chen Yanshi was humiliated by the three men's repeated rebuttals, and his tone became somber.

I can't argue with that at all.

Why aren't there any helpers?

Where is that bastard Chen Hai?

"I, Chen Yanshi, am not condoning troublemakers. I just don't want to see a group of old workers who have worked their whole lives end up homeless and without a livelihood!"

They had no power or influence, and nowhere to turn for help. If there were even the slightest possibility, who would risk their life and fortune?

"Old Chen, this is unreasonable and illegal." Qi Tongwei had to say these words.

Today, Qi Tongwei said it in front of the live broadcast audience.

Tian Guofu jogged forward, trying to help Chen Yanshi out of the predicament, "Executive Qi, Secretary Dakang, Governor Liqun, everyone please say less."

Old Chen had a pure heart and spent his whole life rooted in the masses and caring for the people.

While the workers at Dafeng Factory were certainly at fault, their methods of causing trouble were extremely irregular and they should be held accountable.

But we must also ask ourselves honestly: have we really done our job well in terms of grassroots resettlement, handling public complaints, and protecting rights?

Every effect has a cause; we cannot simply blame the people when something goes wrong without examining our own shortcomings.

As the secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission, Tian Guofu really wanted to open a loophole in Hanzhong and investigate a number of officials.

Making a contribution helps one advance in one's career.

Upon hearing this, Qi Tongwei glanced at Tian Guofu, a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes. "Secretary Guofu, have you done your job properly?"

With just one simple sentence, Tian Guofu was speechless.

Just then.

Accompanied by Wu Chunlin and Secretary Bai, Sha Ruijin walked over step by step.

All eyes were focused on the top official of Handong.

Sha Ruijin glanced at the chaotic factory area and spoke calmly.

"I just arrived and have a general understanding of the situation."

On behalf of the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government, I would like to state that causing trouble is wrong, maintaining stability is our responsibility, and ensuring people's livelihood is our top priority.

Legal principles, moral principles, and human compassion are all indispensable; a one-sided, one-size-fits-all approach is inappropriate.

I must say something about the social niceties.

Wu Chunlin immediately chimed in, "Secretary Sha is right. The right way to govern a region is to combine firmness with flexibility."

"Simply adhering to rules will alienate people; focusing solely on personal relationships will disrupt the established order."

The situation instantly became more delicate, and the positions of the provincial party committee members quietly diverged.

Li Dakang values ​​rules and GDP, and cannot tolerate chaos.

Qi Tongwei prioritizes the overall situation and balance, and acts decisively and ruthlessly.

Tian Guofu values ​​people's hearts and balances, and is good at mediating disputes.

After a brief silence, Qi Tongwei proposed a solution: "Comrade Ruijin, comrades, since everyone has different opinions, empty arguments are useless and further discussion is pointless."

Let's go into the factory, sit down, and talk things over.

One sentence ended the argument.

Qi Tongwei firmly controlled the initiative throughout the game.

Sha Ruijin nodded slightly. "I completely agree with Executive Director Qi's opinion. Facing the problem head-on, handling it openly, and thoroughly resolving the conflict is the fundamental solution."

After a half-hour break and preparation.

Sha Ruijin, Qi Tongwei, Li Dakang, Feng Liqun, Wu Chunlin, Tian Guofu, Hou Liangping, Cheng Du, Chen Yanshi and others entered the Dafeng Factory area to prepare for a symposium.

Because Liu Hailong is a member of the National Security Bureau, it is not appropriate for him to appear in public.

Without making a sound, they quietly left.

The group headed straight for the office building.

Sha Ruijin held Chen Yanshi's hand, showing respect for the elderly, and said, "Uncle Chen, as long as your opinion is reasonable, our provincial party committee will definitely listen to it."

This sentence pleased Chen Yanshi, who thought to himself that Xiao Jinzi, his adopted son, was quite filial.

Thankfully, they're not ungrateful.

"Xiao Jinzi, the interests of the workers at Dafeng Factory must be protected. We absolutely cannot let the workers lose heart and suffer great losses."

Zheng Xipo, his face full of bitterness, strode forward and pointed to the conference room on the first floor, looking quite helpless.

"Secretary Sha, we can't get in!"

"Why?" Sha Ruijin asked, somewhat annoyed.

To solve the problem, they couldn't even get into the provincial-level meeting room.

This is truly an international joke.

The workers at Dafeng Factory are really clueless.

Zheng Xipo, his face contorted with grief, cried out, "Secretary Sha, Dafeng Factory has been sealed off by the court, and the meeting room door is sealed with a seal from the Jingzhou Intermediate People's Court. If we want to enter for the meeting, we have to tear off the seal!"

Upon hearing this, everyone stopped in their tracks.

Sha Ruijin frowned slightly and turned to look at Li Dakang and Wu Xiongfei. "Secretary Dakang, Mayor Wu, what exactly is going on?"

Li Dakang, you are the top leader of the Jingzhou Municipal Party Committee, and Comrade Wu Xiongfei, you are the mayor. You two need to explain yourselves clearly!

Wu Xiongfei looked embarrassed and quickly stepped forward to explain, "Secretary Sha, it's a seal posted by the Jingzhou Intermediate People's Court!"

Wu Xiongfei's idea was to shift the blame onto Chen Qingquan.

Zheng Xipo immediately launched an attack, "Leaders, all of this was caused by Chen Qingquan."

All eyes immediately turned to Chen Qingquan.

Chen Qingquan remained composed and assertive, stating, "I am acting in accordance with the law, and my actions are based on reason and evidence."

Sha Ruijin asked, "Dean Chen, judges must not only speak the law and reason, but also show compassion."

Qi Tongwei retorted, "Secretary Sha, when judging cases, we must also adhere to the principle of seeking truth from facts and analyze specific problems in specific ways."

If we only consider emotions, where do we put the law?
