Qi Tongwei: Sign-in relationship started during student days

Chapter 932 Investigation continues

Hou Liangping didn't come here to listen to Ji Changming talk good things about Qi Tongwei.

"Ji Jian, don't say you regret it, I regret it too. To be honest, I still haven't figured out the methods of my old senior after all these years.

Otherwise, if I could have learned a little from him, I wouldn't have been exiled here."

Ji Changming joked, "You must not have done enough. You two are brothers, and Mayor Gao is the matchmaker. If you hang out more, he won't be able to hide anything from you, his junior fellow apprentice."

Hou Liangping nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, my senior naturally has nothing to say about my junior.

Whenever he has the chance, he will give me a "profound" teaching by words and deeds.

But it's my fault for being so slow in understanding that I only knew one side of the story. Only after I suffered a loss did I remember how good my senior was to me, but it was too late.

So, I want to take advantage of this time in Jingzhou to do my homework, so as to prepare myself to avoid falling again in the same place in the future.

How about you also analyze my political skills as a senior student so I can understand them better?"

"Analyze Comrade Tong Wei? How do you want me to analyze him? Do you think I can understand your old senior better than you do?"

"Ji Jian, isn't there a saying that goes, 'Those who are involved are often fascinated.' Besides, you're very experienced, and your ability to judge people is many times better than mine. Just tell me from your perspective, and treat it as a casual chat."

Seeing that Hou Liangping's words were very sincere, Ji Changming stopped laughing and spoke a few more truthful words.

"Well, since you really want to ask, then I'll tell you."

Hou Liangping sat up straight, pretending to listen attentively.

Ji Changming thought for a moment and said, "As for Comrade Tong Wei, to be honest, I do know a little bit about him.

In my personal opinion, his greatest strength is not his political philosophy, nor his business talent.

Hou Liangping said, "Oh," and asked, "What do you think is the most amazing thing about this senior of mine?"

“Charm of personality!”

"Charisma?"

"Yes, you could also say it's interpersonal relationships. Interpersonal relationships are a very complex subject. Theoretically, as long as you have good interpersonal relationships, you can do well in other areas, whether it's politics or business."

Ji Changming said: "For example, we leaders, do we really know everything? Not necessarily.

Let’s not talk about anything else, let’s just talk about you, Teacher Gao.

You are all engaged in politics and law, so it is understandable that you say you are familiar with this area.

Is it enough to govern a region just by relying on political science and the knowledge learned in twenty or thirty years of textbooks?

Definitely not, but how did we secure this position? It's all thanks to the support of everyone.

This support from all levels is the powerful tentacles of our cadres, firmly grasping every aspect.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t understand economics. We just need to find people who do. They give us advice and we make the decisions. Wouldn’t that make things simple?

Of course, it would be even more difficult to be like Comrade Tong Wei, who knows a little bit about everything.”

Hou Liangping nodded and said, "Ji Jian, you are right. My senior is indeed better at managing interpersonal relationships than me.

When I was in school, there were few teachers, classmates, etc. who didn’t like me, a senior.

Others who serve as student union president usually only serve one term, but he served three terms, and his performance is unmatched."

Ji Changming said: "That's right, if you grasp this core, everything will be easy. If you don't know how to do it, let someone who knows how to do it, let someone who is proficient in it do it, how can it not be successful?" He continued to give examples: "In fact, the bottom is not the most important thing, the top is the most important thing.

It is more important to manage the interpersonal relationships above than those below.

Many times, whether your subordinates perform well or not may not affect your position.

But if you don’t handle the relationships above well, your position will definitely be unstable.

Look at what your seniors are doing, they are developing very well.

As far as I know, from the former Governor Jiao to the current Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee He and Executive Vice Governor Liu.

Even your father-in-law is very fond of him.

Going further up, there is Commissioner Zhong above you. These talents are the necessary conditions for your senior to rise to prominence.

Achieving results is only one aspect; the most important thing is having someone recognize your achievements.”

"Yes, yes, Ji Jian, your analysis really enlightened me."

"Here you go again, stop flattering me, we're just chatting, just listen to what I'm saying and don't spread it around."

"I promise not to spread it, don't worry."

At this time, there was a rapid knock on the door.

"Enter."

Lu Yike hurried in, holding something in her hand. "Inspector Ji, Director Hou, we have important information."

"What important information?"

"When I went out this morning, I found a letter of complaint in my car. It was about Luo Ping's son Luo Jianguo." Lu Yike said as he handed the letter of complaint to Ji Changming.

Ji Changming was stunned, and immediately took it and opened it. The message was very brief.

It lists how Luo Jianguo used his position to help the company controlled by his father to play a driving role in many economic disputes.

It was also pointed out that Luo Jianguo was able to be promoted to the position of section chief at such a young age because of his father's instructions behind the scenes, which was to pave the way for the formation of a power family.

Ji Changming did not make a statement after reading the letter. Instead, he passed it to Hou Liangping and asked, "Liangping, what do you think?"

Hou Liangping said lightly: "It is better to believe it than not to believe it. I think we should investigate and collect evidence."

"Yike, what about you?"

"Director Hou and I agree."

She doesn't care what relationship this person has with her or Viagra in the past, as long as he commits a crime, she will arrest him.

Ji Changming still didn't make a decision immediately. He chuckled and said, "This letter came quite unexpectedly. What a coincidence! We were just about to close the case, but it suddenly popped up. Isn't that strange?"

Hou Liangping said nonchalantly, "It could be a coincidence. After all, we've been investigating for so long and haven't made any breakthroughs. Maybe some righteous people can't stand it anymore."

Ji Changming glanced at Hou Liangping meaningfully. "How can there be so many righteous people? I think it seems like someone is deliberately trying to muddy the waters and keep people from living in peace."

A trace of guilt flashed across Hou Liangping's eyes. "That... that possibility can't be ruled out. Someone wants Luo Ping to shut up, and naturally someone else is trying to get him to speak. That's how politics works. The struggle is fierce."

Ji Changming smiled and asked, "You investigated him last time, what was the result?"

"As a result... there's no problem. Since Luo Jianguo got married, he rarely returns to his parents' home except during the holidays."

Ji Changming said: "Since there is no problem, will we still get no results if we continue investigating?"

Hou Liangping understood what Ji Changming meant. "Inspector Ji, someone has reported this. We can't just ignore it."

Lu Yike also said: "Yes, Director Hou's meaning is what I mean. We cannot wrongly accuse any good person, nor can we let any bad person go.

If the report is untrue, we must clear the person's name. What do you think, Ji Jian?

Lu Yike's words made Hou Liangping look sideways. It was obvious that the other party was still brooding over the fact that he had put on Qi Tongwei yesterday.

Ji Changming sighed, "I don't object if you want to investigate, but the time left by the higher-ups is really short. If it drags on for another ten days or half a month, I'm afraid I won't be able to explain it."

There's no problem with the investigation, you two come out and take charge.
