I wanted to say something more, but Yu Yue called and said that the city leaders and district leaders had arrived. Liang Jian hurried to the conference room. Everyone was still seated, and Liang Jian found his place and sat down.

Gao Chenghan, secretary of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection, sat in the center, with Hu Xiaoying, secretary of the district party committee, Zhao Minghua, member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection, and Wen Zhaosheng, secretary of the district discipline inspection commission, on the other side being members of the town's leading group, town and village cadres, and some two representatives and one member.

Liang Jian saw Gao Chenghan for the first time, this is a middle-aged man, he looks thin, quite a bit of an honest and honest image of a discipline inspection commission cadre, his hair is very good, black and shiny, this black hair makes him not lose his energy because of thinness, and his eyes are also bright, as if he doesn't want to fool him about anything. Liang Jian had a good first impression of this senior secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection.

Secretary Gao didn't need anyone to preside over the opening, he spoke alone. Gao Chenghan said: "I am very happy to visit our Shimian Town today for research. The name of Shimian Town is also quite interesting, 'majestic Shimian'. Just kidding. I believe that the town of Shimian has always taken a firm step in reform and development. Now that Shimian Town is responsible for the main battlefield of the construction of the new city in the northern part of Changhu District, Secretary Hu, I am not wrong, right?" he turned to Hu Xiaoying and asked.

Hu Xiaoying hurriedly said: "Secretary Gao, what you said is right, Shimian Town is the main battlefield for the construction of a new city in our north. ”

Gao Chenghan nodded and continued: "So, the topic of our investigation today is very meaningful to both Shimian Town and our municipal and district discipline inspection commissions. The theme of our research is: the operation of power. What is power? Power is a double-edged sword. What is a double-edged sword? That is, if used well, it can slay demons and eliminate demons, and in today's terms, it is to promote development, and if it is not used well, it can also accidentally injure oneself. We often say that when a project is built, a group of cadres falls. That's how power isn't used.

"Whether it is the central government, the provincial party committee and the municipal party committee, I believe that our district party committee and town party committee all attach great importance to the issue of honesty and diligence. The key to being honest and diligent in performing official duties is to establish a good mechanism for standardizing the exercise of power. I don't know if the Party Committee of Shimian Town has discussed this issue?"

Gao Chenghan asked this, and Zhong Tao, secretary of the town party committee, began to sweat. I had to bite the bullet and say, "We discussed." The members of the team present all know that Zhong Tao's so-called "discussed" is nothing more than vetoing the proposal of the town mayor Jin Kaige. Zhong Tao secretly took a chance in his heart: "Fortunately, Jin Kaige was sent to Taiwan for inspection, otherwise Jin Kaige stood up today and said a word, and he would have to be miserable." ”

Gao Chenghan continued: "It's good that we have discussed, so today's discussion can be discussed more fully. I won't say more, but I'm mainly listening to you today. Everyone speaks freely, it's okay to say something wrong, but to talk about the problem and the situation. I tell you in advance that I don't like to hear good words. I like to hear the truth and people!"

The discussion began, and all the people in Shimian Town, several households, were arranged by Zhong Tao and Zhang Hua, the purpose was to prevent these people from speaking out about some bad situations in the town. Zhong Tao approved the participation of the following people: deputy mayor Chang Qi and Shi Ning, Zhong Shaochun of the town's finance office, Tao Guoqiang, director of the comprehensive management office, Mao Abao, secretary of the Zhennan Village branch, and several other "two representatives and one committee member" from schools and grassroots units.

For this reason, Zhong Tao is still at ease with these people today, and the only ones who are not at ease are Yu Yue and Liang Jian. He felt that Yu Yue should not say anything that he didn't like, she hadn't been in town for a few days, and she didn't dare to admit that he was bad. To deal with Liang Jian, he discussed it with Zhang Hua and decided to let Liang Jian be the last to speak.

Let Liang Jian last say that there is consideration, that is, today's research, the total time is only three hours, he instructed the previous people, try to say as much as possible, when the time is exceeded, the leader will be impatient, hastily finished, Liang Jian may not even have a chance to speak.

However, there is one thing that Zhong Tao did not expect, that is, because they all greeted in advance, all the discussants basically said that they were good, and basically praised the good work of standardizing the operation of power in Shimian Town. There are a lot of people talking, and this symposium sounds like it has become a commendation meeting that only talks about achievements and does not talk about problems, and the person who is praised is, of course, Zhong Tao, secretary of the town party committee.

After the four of them talked, Gao Chenghan, secretary of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection, did not change his expression, but remembered something very seriously. And Hu Xiaoying, the secretary of the district party committee, who was sitting on the side, couldn't sit still, and her face became ugly. She said secretly: "What the hell is this Zhong Tao doing? If he does this, he will only bring trouble to himself." He doesn't know what kind of person Secretary Gao is at all, and playing this little cleverness today is likely to bring very adverse consequences to himself!"

So, when the fifth person was about to speak, she suddenly stopped: "Our fifth speaker, stop for a moment, and I will say a few words." Everyone's eyes were on Hu Xiaoying, secretary of the district party committee.

Hu Xiaoying's sudden interruption surprised everyone present, and they didn't know what Hu Xiaoying was going to say.

Hu Xiaoying glanced at everyone and said, "The speeches of the four comrades in front of us have all talked a lot about the good practices and experiences of Shimian Town in regulating the operation of power. Here I would like to remind you that Secretary Gao has already said just now, and I hope you will talk more about problems and tell the truth. We should not be afraid to talk about problems, and only when there are problems can we think of solutions to them. Therefore, please pay attention to the following statements. ”

As soon as Hu Xiaoying said this, Zhong Tao realized that the method of letting everyone talk about it in advance was a little unworkable, so he made eye contact with Zhang Hua and asked Zhang Hua to remind the speakers behind.

But now that it is at the forum, how can I remind it? Zhang Hua had no choice but to add: "Please follow Secretary Hu's request and talk more about problems." ”

Most of the people who followed the discussion were prepared to say good things, but they were not prepared to tell the truth and tell the truth. I don't know how to say it, and everyone has no score in their hearts, what is the point of this truth? As the saying goes, the county officials are not as good as the county management, if Secretary Zhong is offended, how will he mix in the town in the future?

Even when it came to problems, they only said trivial things, such as "members of the town leadership group, in the future they should learn more about the spirit of honesty and diligence in the study of the theoretical center group."

Hu Xiaoying saw that these people didn't take her words seriously, and felt that these people were incorrigible. Zhong Tao's back was also already soaked, and he thought, "Will it really be self-defeating today?" So he opened his mouth and said: "Secretary Gao, Secretary Hu, let me talk about some problems in the operation of the power of our Shimian Town leadership team. ”

"Secretary Zhong, you wait first. Gao Chenghan, member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, suddenly spoke.

Gao Chenghan's tone is not hurried, not slow, not high or low, it is difficult to hear what is tingy in it, but it is very deterrent. Although everyone couldn't hear it, they already felt that he was very dissatisfied.

I only heard Gao Chenghan continue: "Let other comrades say it first, and then you can talk about it." Other comrades, if they see any problems in the operation of power in the town, they can talk about it, but if they don't see problems, then they should not talk about it. ”

According to the order of the discussions, Zhang Hua, Chang Qi, Shi Ning, Zhong Shaochun, and Tao Guoqiang have all finished speaking, leaving Mao Abao, secretary of the Zhennan Village branch, and a few other "two representatives and one committee member" from schools and grassroots units, and only Liang Jian remains.

Mao Abao and those "two represents, one committee member" had never seen this kind of posture, and because they were all ready to say good things at that time, they were now going to say "bad things," and this turn could not be turned around all of a sudden. Seeing that they were silent, Gao Chenghan asked one by one: "This comrade, do you have anything to say?" Mao Abao didn't know how to talk about the problem, and it seemed that he could not talk about it, so it was better not to talk about it, it was better than to say it wrong, so he shook his head. Gao Chenghan asked again: "What about this comrade?" The principal of the elementary school also shook his head, and the next people basically shook their heads.

Until the last one, that is Liang Jian. Gao Chenghan saw that Liang Jian was young, and thought to himself, this young man should not be able to say anything, so he said: "This young comrade, is he the same as the above, he has nothing to say?"

Liang Jian looked at Gao Chenghan and smiled: "Secretary Gao, hello, I have some ideas that I would like to take this opportunity to talk about." ”

Gao Chenghan had some questions, so he asked: "Talking about problems?" Liang Jian nodded again: "Talk about problems, talk about the problems that I think need to be improved in the operation of power in the town." Gao Chenghan laughed at this time: "Finally, there is a comrade who is willing to talk about the problem! Okay, you can talk about it." ”

At this time, Hu Xiaoying, secretary of the district party committee, also breathed a sigh of relief, and nodded subconsciously, thinking that Liang Jian could finally save some face for Shimian Town. She knows Liang Jian well, and knows that he has a subtle connection with a senior official of the central government, and as the secretary of the district party committee, she promoted Liang Jian to sell the leader's face. Usually, she also paid attention to Liang Jian intentionally or unintentionally, and she had a good overall impression of him. But now, she is still a little worried about whether Liang Jian can speak well this time. At this time, Liang Jian had already begun to speak.

Liang Jian said: "To regulate the sunny operation of power, I think there are still three problems in the township at present. First, the role of checks and balances in the separation of the party and the government has not been used well and in place. The separation of the party and the government and the leadership of the party committee were originally to perform their own duties, but in the actual promotion of a specific work, it is not so clear, and sometimes there is also the problem of not separating the party and the government, and there is no clear demarcation between the party committee and the government in some things, and there is no clear demarcation of the line, who will lead, who will operate, and who will supervise, and there is generally no clear rule in the townships and towns. On this issue, the town of Ten Faces also wanted to propose a "mechanism for regulating the operation of power" at the previous stage, but it was rejected because there was no consensus at the party committee.

"Second, internal oversight has not played a substantive role. There is only the town discipline inspection committee in the town to supervise the exercise of power, but for example, how can I, the secretary of the town discipline inspection committee, supervise the leaders at a higher level? Specifically, how can I supervise Secretary Zhong and Mayor Jin? They are all leaders with higher posts than me, and how can I dare to supervise them without the instructions of the higher-level leaders? The most direct problem is that the evaluation of my future promotion and inspection is not in the hands of others, but in the hands of these two principal leaders! If I take the initiative to supervise them, they will definitely think that I am troublesome, and when the time comes, they will have a bad impression of me, and they will definitely say bad things about the inspection team.

"But I think the most critical problem is the third problem, that is, there is a misunderstanding of public power and private power. A small number of leaders still fail to realize that power is actually public power, and power cannot be rent-seeking or abused.

"The idea that public power is private power is still existing, which is actually the incorrect view of power in the thousands of years of power in today's table. Even if all the systems are perfect, if there is a problem in the minds of leading cadres and they think that power is private, then no matter how good the system is, it will be useless. Therefore, I think that the system is the guarantee, but the fundamental thing is the concept, whether we have the correct view of power.

"Our party and organization have extreme trust in leading cadres, and the power given to them is also very large, but this is based on trust in the power concept of leading cadres, and if there is a change in the power concept of a leading cadre, the organization will definitely respond immediately, and taking away power is as simple as giving power. I am talking about this on the basis of my understanding of township work and my usual thinking. Please criticize and correct any inappropriate places. Thank you. ”
