According to CCTV News, the CCTV Comprehensive Channel of China Central Radio and Television broadcast the third episode of the annual anti-corruption blockbuster "Continue to Make Efforts to Promote in Depth" on the 8th.
In December 2022, there was an incident of illegal eating and drinking in Qinghai Province that seriously violated the spirit of the eight central regulations. At that time, just over a month after the conclusion of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, Qinghai Province held a training course for the main leading cadres of the party and government to study Xi implement the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China.
This drinking party took place on the evening of December 11, 2022, in room 1218 of the student dormitory of the Provincial Party School. The owner of the room was Shi Cunwu, then secretary general of the Qinghai provincial government, and the dinner was initiated by him. The participants were Li Qingchuan, Secretary of the Party Group and Director of the Provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, Wang Xuewen, Secretary of the Party Group and Director of the Provincial Department of Culture and Tourism, Dorje, Secretary of the Party Committee of Haibei Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Hong Tao, Secretary of the Party Committee and Director of the Provincial State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, and Tao Yongli, Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of the Provincial Communications Holding Group Co., Ltd. The main purpose of this meeting is to congratulate Dorje and Hong Tao on being identified as candidates for promotion and inspection.
Hong Tao, former secretary of the Party Committee and director of the Qinghai Provincial State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission: You two will be promoted in the future, just me and Dorje, please have a drink today. Thinking about drinking in a party school, it is definitely not allowed and inappropriate. At that time, this discipline, this principle, including the party spirit, may have been left behind.
Tao Yongli, former Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of Qinghai Provincial Communications Holding Group Co., Ltd.: I also know very well that this is not right and violates the discipline requirements, but I feel that people's feelings are greater than the discipline requirements, so I will break the defense, and I did not raise objections there, nor did I put forward suggestions to stop it.
During the period of study and Xi at the party school, it was strictly forbidden to drink alcohol in any place, and there was a clear stipulation, but these six cadres were lucky and knowingly committed crimes. Shi Cunwu took advantage of his authority to ask the canteen of the provincial government office to make several dishes and arrange for the driver to send it to the party school in an official car; Li Qingchuan asked the driver to deliver the wine, and several people drank it from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m., and finally drank seven of the eight bottles of liquor they brought.
Li Qingchuan, former party secretary and director of the Qinghai Provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs: I drank too much and felt dizzy. Still lawless and arrogant.
Wang Xuewen, former party secretary and director of the Qinghai Provincial Department of Culture and Tourism: At the wrong time and in the wrong place, I participated in a drinking party that I shouldn't have attended, and I always had a fluke mentality, feeling that everyone didn't know that this matter had passed.
The reason why this drinking party was exposed the next day was actually because they drank too much on the first night, which led to an unexpected succession the next day. First of all, early in the morning, the waiter heard someone slamming the door and calling for help.
Liu Chengyu, a staff member of the Qinghai Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision: In the morning, Li Qingchuan, the director of our Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, may have been unwell after drinking wine, and he just smashed the door, just slammed the door of the dormitory.
Li Qingchuan, former party secretary and director of the Qinghai Provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs: I still have a little heart disease, and after a heart attack, I was uncomfortable, and I couldn't open it in a hurry.
In fact, Li Qingchuan locked the door himself, but he was delirious, so he couldn't open it, and the staff had to remove the lock from the outside and send him to the hospital. Shi Cunwu, on the other hand, was drunk and couldn't wake up, so he missed the important meeting that he was supposed to attend in the morning. And there was another person who was nowhere to be seen the next day, and that was Dorje.
Liu Chengyu, a staff member of the Qinghai Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision: At the graduation ceremony in the afternoon, Dorje never appeared, and then when he checked out the card in the evening, he didn't check out, and the waiter felt very strange, so he knocked on the door and didn't open it, and when he opened the door, Dorje had already died.
With the in-depth investigation, it is gradually revealed that this seemingly accidental extreme event is actually inevitable and has profound warning significance.
Du Kerong, a staff member of the Qinghai Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision: It is not an accident that such a serious problem occurred in such a serious place as the party school, and they usually turn a deaf ear to the discipline rules.
The Party Central Committee has been implementing the spirit of the Eight Regulations for so many years, but there are still people who turn a deaf ear and never put themselves in it, and these six cadres are typical examples. They are all the "top leaders" of their units or departments, and they usually talk about discipline and make demands on their subordinates, while eating and drinking as usual and taking things seriously as usual.
Hong Tao, former secretary of the party committee and director of the Qinghai Provincial State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission: Comprehensively reflect on my usual behavior, usually I am not surprised by this kind of eating and drinking, this kind of gathering between friends, and it seems to separate the anti-"four winds" from our eating and drinking, which is Marxism-Leninism to others, but liberalism to ourselves.
