Secretary Zhu's words touched upon a public case in the county.
Around 2010, I remember our county once made it to the CCTV news.
Of course, it wasn't for anything good.
The headline was shocking: Four consecutive county committee secretaries in XX County, corrupt one after another.
Listen to that wording, it's already very harsh criticism.
Because in over 2000 counties, this has set a record.
Unprecedented, and who knows if there will be any successors.
From the first secretary caught in 1997 to the fourth one, it spanned 16 years.
You can imagine how poor the county's political ecosystem and commercial environment were.
It's not like there weren't any local tycoons who succeeded outside and thought about returning gloriously to contribute to their hometowns.
But back then, the government had deeply wounded their hearts.
Before bringing them in, they welcomed them with smiles.
After bringing them in, they extorted and plundered.
