Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoOn the evening of October 21, 2016, his son Hu Jianyong died of drunkenness while accompanying several leaders to dinner. Hu Jianyong, 44, was the director of the Dayongqiao Sub-district Office in Yongding District. After the incident, the above compensated 190,000 yuan (including cremation, burial expenses, and 42 months' salary for his son). In addition, the above also gave their two elders a monthly compensation of 95 yuan until a hundred years, and also gave a 17-year-old grandson a monthly compensation of 380 yuan until the age of 18.
Yin Feiyu, director of the administrative office of the Ji'an Highway Administration Bureau in Jiangxi Province, died on the spot because he was drunk with a guest. It is understood that the Ji'an Highway Bureau gave a bereavement subsidy from the perspective of humanistic care, and compensated Yin Feiyu's family with more than 750,000 yuan.
A few years ago, when I was working at the Railway Education Center, there was a leader of the trade union who usually liked to drink, but less than half a year after being transferred to a middle school as a vice principal, he was drunk and died at a wine table entertaining the superior leaders. The details of how the unit handled this are unknown, and it seems that it is also handled in the form of work-related injuries.
Regarding the drunkenness of official duties, the most controversial incident is the incident of "a police chief in Shenzhen died of drunkenness in the line of duty and was named a martyr". It is said that Chen Lusheng of the Xixiang Traffic Police Squadron in Bao'an District, Shenzhen, was invited by Xie Feiyong, the leader of the Xixiang Traffic Police Squadron, to drink a large amount of foreign wine during the banquet and died of drunken suffocation.
"Falling to death", "vomiting and suffocation", "death from heart disease", etc., are the tragic causes of various sudden deaths caused by excessive alcohol consumption of public officials in recent years. Some of these public officials who died in the altar also received treatment such as "martyrs", "sacrifices in the line of duty" or meritorious service. What is thought-provoking is that under the strict regulations of the central government and other strict regulations, "drinking and dying" in official receptions still occur one after another. So what is the reason for the repeated prohibition of alcohol in official receptions?
First of all, let's talk about China's wine culture. Chinese liquor has a long history, a wide variety of wines, a collection of famous wines, and a good reputation at home and abroad. About 3,000 years ago, in the Shang and Zhou dynasties, the Chinese created the compound fermentation method of koji and began to make rice wine in large quantities. About a thousand years ago in the Song Dynasty, the Chinese invented the distillation method, and since then, liquor has become the main alcohol consumed by the Chinese. Wine has permeated the entire 5,000-year history of Chinese civilization, and occupies an important position in Chinese's lives in all aspects, from literary and artistic creation, cultural entertainment, food and cooking, health care and so on.
Nowadays, wine has been widely integrated into people's lives, and the wine culture that is closer to life has been unprecedentedly enriched and developed. For example, birthday banquets, wedding banquets, funeral banquets, etc., as well as related wine customs and wine ceremonies, have become an important part of life. In March 2013, foreign media rated the world's top ten favorite drinking countries, with the United Kingdom ranking first and China ranking second. In China, the most representative liquor is baijiu. From a certain point of view, China's liquor culture is liquor culture. The West, on the other hand, is predominantly wine-based.
From ancient times to the present, drinking not only embodies boldness and hospitality, but also is associated with poetry and courage, such as "three cups can strengthen the hero's courage, and two lamps will become a splendid text", "everyone is not drunk when the desire for wine is drunk, and the fragrance of flowers hits me and I am clear", "the words and words of poetry are fragrant in the wine, and the ink pen is born after being drunk" and "the delicacies and wine are not drunk, and the guests often come with true feelings". Moreover, ancient poets often used wine as a rejoice, leaving behind famous passages through the ages, which increased the poetry and beauty of wine. For example, Wang Han's "grape wine luminous cup, if you want to drink pipa, urge immediately."
Drunk and lying on the battlefield, Jun Mo smiled, how many people came back to fight in ancient times?" and Wang Wei's "Weicheng Dynasty is light and dusty, and the guest house is green and willow-colored. Persuade you to have a glass of wine, and there is no reason to go out of Yangguan in the west. Even the female lyricists of the Song Dynasty lamented that they were "drunk and don't know the way back". In particular, the poet and wine fairy Li Bai's "Will Enter the Wine" wrote the artistic conception of wine and Yaxing to the extreme. "You don't see, the water of the Yellow River comes up from the sky, rushes to the sea and never returns. You don't see it, Gao Tang Mingjing is sad and white-haired, and the morning is like green silk turning into snow at dusk. Life must be happy, don't make the gold bottle empty to the moon. I am born to be useful, and my daughter will come back when I am gone. Cooking sheep and slaughtering cattle for pleasure will require 300 cups of drink. Master Cen, Dan Qiusheng, will enter the wine, and the cup will not stop. Sing a song with you, please listen to it for me. The bells and drums are not expensive enough, but I hope that I will not wake up after being drunk for a long time. The ancient sages were all lonely, and only the drinker left his name. In the past, King Chen feasted peacefully, and fought wine for ten thousand years. What is the owner's words, he has to sell the right gentleman. Five-flowered horses, daughters and daughters, Hu'er will exchange for fine wine, and sell eternal sorrow with you. "If we taste this poem carefully, we can feel that the poem is almost full of the meaning of life is short and drunk to relieve a thousand sorrows, and we can feel the Chinese's preference and feelings for wine.
Let's talk about the deliciousness of the wine. According to the records of the ancients, the invention of wine was also quite accidental. Once, Du Kang put the leftover rice in the empty mulberry, and after a long time, the rice naturally fermented, emitting a fragrant smell, and a liquid flowed out, Du Kang drank it, and felt that it tasted sweet. Du Kang was inspired by this and invented wine. I don't drink alcohol, and it's a waste for me to drink even the best wine, because I can't taste the beauty and magic of it. But my brother and some of my friends like to drink, and some of them have a penchant for alcohol, which can be described as "death when you see alcohol". They began to drink wine, and their faces were smiling, and their brows were dancing, as if there had never been sorrow or sorrow in the world. This is because drinking alcohol can cause people to show a state of excitement that loses self-control, and then reaches a temporary relief from stress and unpleasant emotions. Therefore, some people will drink alcohol to relieve their worries and escape from reality. People who drink alcohol often tend to become addicted to alcohol.
The most important factor in official drunkenness is eating and drinking at public expense. A bottle of liquor is very expensive, especially famous liquor. A bottle of a better Moutai or Wuliangye is nearly 1,000 yuan, and if we buy it with our monthly salary, we can only buy four bottles at most. Chen Lusheng drank at least 6 catties of Hennessy wine that time. Hennessy is the most exclusive wine in France and the number one seller in the world. Common famous products are "Hennessy VSOP", "Napoleon Hennessy", "Hennessy XO" and so on. THE RETAIL PRICE OF HENNESSY VSOP (700ML) IS 448 YUAN, THE RETAIL PRICE OF HENNESSY XO (1500ML) IS 3980 YUAN, AND THE RETAIL PRICE OF HENNESSY RICHARD IS 25480 YUAN. In this way, Chen Lusheng and their children spent tens of thousands of yuan just drinking that time. If the tens of thousands of dollars were not from public funds, what private person would pay such a large amount of money to eat and drink? Of course, there may be private bosses who do this, but their purpose in doing so is nothing more than to catch big fish with bait. Each unit has a large amount of entertainment every year, which is dedicated to receiving and entertaining superior leaders and inspectors. Although the state has clear restrictions on the entertainment expenses of each unit, each unit has its own small treasury and private money, which can be used at will, and part of it is used as entertainment expenses. Although the relevant state departments strictly control and investigate this, there are still some people who eat and drink well and do not change their bad habits. High-end hotels don't dare to enter, so they hide in the private rooms of small restaurants and spend all day drinking, eating and drinking. That's why there were incidents of drunkenness on official business.
In the West, the purpose of drinking is often simple, drinking for the sake of appreciating the wine, and drinking for the sake of enjoying the wine. In the eyes of Chinese, wine is more used as a communication tool, so there is a lack of scientific and systematic theoretical analysis and tasting of wine itself in Chinese wine culture. Moreover, there is also a way of persuasion in China that is regarded as sincere and polite, which is not to persuade others to drink less and not to drink, but to persuade others to drink more and drink harder. Some scenes are often not fun without getting a person drunk. We also often see in movies that the two parties make friends and marriages based on wine, and even use drinking as a bargaining chip for business negotiations. Even though being drunk can be painful and uncomfortable, your boss and colleagues will think highly of you because of it. For this reason, people also make up a lot of jokes to motivate others to drink more. For example, "wine is like character", "the amount of alcohol is ability", "the more you drink wine, the warmer it gets, and the more you drink it, the colder it becomes", "if a man doesn't drink, he can't make good friends", "the feelings are deep and boring, and the feelings are shallow licks". Some people even made up the joke into a smooth mouth, saying, "I can drink one or two and drink two taels, so that my friends are bold enough! I can drink two taels and drink five taels, so that the comrade party is cultivated! I will drink half a catty and drink one catty, so that my buddy is the most intimate! I will drink one catty and drink a bucket, and I will be promoted to be the vice president! I will drink a bucket and drink a tank, and the director of the distillery will let you be!" As a manifestation of wine culture, these jokes and slips of the tongue also played a role in fueling official drunkenness.
However, alcohol should not be drunk too much. The main ingredient of wine is alcohol. Alcohol entering the human body can have a destructive effect in many ways. It can lead to polyneuritis, myocardial lesions, encephalopathy, hematopoietic dysfunction, pancreatitis, gastritis and ulcer disease, and can also increase the incidence of hypertension. It has also been noted that long-term heavy alcohol consumption can harm germ cells and lead to mental retardation in offspring. It is said that Li Bai's son is an idiot. Experts have tested that when the concentration of ethanol in the blood reaches 0.05%, people will feel high and euphoric, and when the concentration of ethanol in the blood reaches 0.1%, people will lose their self-control. If it reaches 0.2%, the person has reached the point of getting drunk, and if it reaches 0.4%, the person will lose consciousness, fall unconscious, and even risk life. Judging from the persuasion of Chinese wine culture and the low self-control ability of many people, there are many incompatible and even contradictory aspects of Chinese wine culture in modern social life, and the negative effects have been very significant. Because there are more and more people who like to drink, and there are not a few people who get drunk as soon as they drink. Many people become ugly when they drink too much, get drunk, cause trouble, and harass others, which will not only cause unnecessary annoyance to their families, but also cause physical harm to themselves. In particular, the consequences of drunken quarrels and drunk driving accidents are even more serious. Therefore, Chinese wine culture must keep pace with the times and be constantly updated.
Although some people make all kinds of excuses for drinking, they are only self-deception. In fact, there is not much benefit from drinking, and drinking too much or even getting drunk is a child's play with one's own healthy life and the happiness of the whole family. Everyone knows a lot about persuading others not to drink, including those who drink alcohol, but they can't change it. Because they don't have that kind of perseverance and don't understand their family's concerns. To this end, I have selected the examples of two daughters who are worried and troubled by their father's drunkenness as a reference, and remind those who love to drink to reflect on themselves and close their minds.
Example 1: My dad went out drinking with someone tonight and threw up all over the place, and then I drove him home. But I really couldn't lift a 160-pound fat man, so I put him in the car, leaving his phone, money and keys, so that he could go home when he woke up. As a result, he called at 1 o'clock and scolded me, saying that I sold him and ran away on my own, and I didn't want him to die. It makes my heart cold and cold. As a man, you have to worry about the women of the family, isn't it sad? It makes me feel very afraid of falling in love, afraid of getting married, very afraid of meeting such a person again when I get married, I am really disgusted with this kind of person.
Example 2: When I see your worries and distresses, my tears will come out. I'm going to school thousands of miles away from home, but my mom just called and said she couldn't reach my dad. I hurriedly called my dad, but he was drunk and stunned. I was really, really disgusted with him like this, and I wanted to kill the people around him when I heard the voices of those people around him. My dad is still crazy, but why does he toss himself like this? I still don't dare to fall in love, and I am full of fear of marriage. I'm afraid the man I'm looking for will be like this. When I was a child, he would cut people with a kitchen knife whenever he drank too much, and pee in the grass in front of his neighbors. Before my college entrance examination, he drank too much and rolled down the stairs, and his head was covered in blood. Fortunately, the family heard the sound and came out to take the sheets to stop the bleeding and called an ambulance, otherwise, he would have been in danger of even his life. My dad is still a doctor, so it's okay if he doesn't drink, and I want to kill him when he drinks.
Looking at the worries and distress of these two daughters, and then looking at the tragedies and consequences of those who abandoned their wives and families to say goodbye to their lives due to drunkenness, I think this should touch the good drinkers, whether it is an official reception or a private banquet, each of us should not drink too much, remember!
