CHAPTER XLVIII
The moment the special car slowly stopped at the edge of the brilliant square, Qi Tianxiang suddenly felt a complex feeling in his heart, it was here, as if the ears were still reverberating with deafening drum music and cheerful sounds, the fireworks in front of him were still colorful and dazzling, and the neat square team was neatly arranged in the square, and the high-spirited state and momentum were exciting, infected with impulsive moods, and I hoped to be able to integrate into it. [Ran^Text^Library] []hpīŧīŧīŧīŧ
Although a few years have passed, the jubilant celebration scenes, the exquisite choreography, and the exquisite fireworks have all reached the extreme, and they have also shown superb combination art, which can be called classics, and it is difficult to erase them from Qi Tianxiang's mind. Putting aside the human factor, which celebration is indeed a rare glorious moment since the construction of the Brilliant Plaza.
Nowadays, things are not people, and the glory of the past is only left to this square, as well as the past and the bits and pieces of the hurried by, sighs and aftertastes are with a trace of bitterness, and there will always be a gloom and depression of the impermanence of the world. The square is still the same, and people and things have been erased beyond recognition by time.
At this moment, the square seems to be regaining its former glory, but it is much simpler and simpler, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is shabby. The square is the time when the flow of people gathers, and it is a little chaotic, and the flow of vehicles and people is pouring here, and the empty square of the past is gradually filled.
Reality and the past are intertwined with each other and impact Qi Tianxiang's vision and memory, making his mind a little slightly anxious, but the reality does not allow him to indulge too much in these complex emotions and taste, as soon as the special car stopped, Wang Shi'an's smiling face flashed in front of his eyes with the opening of the car door.
"Welcome Secretary Qi, you came early enough, we are still preparing here, messing around." Wang Shi'an opened the car door with a smile on his face, Qi Tianxiang got out of the car, and explained busily: "But it will be placed soon, and it will not be ashamed when the time comes." â
"Spontaneous activities, just achieve the goal, what is not ashamed, and it is not a large-scale celebration." Qi Tianxiang said casually with a smile, the moment the words came out, he seemed to suddenly realize something, it seems that many things have not been forgotten, so he changed the topic a little unnaturally, looked left and right and said: "Why didn't Lao Wang arrive, he, the general consultant, wouldn't be so detached!" â
"How can he have spare time, come here early in the morning, and this will probably arrange a conference room in the office building!" Wang Shi'an continued to smile and said: "This period of busy work, Wang Fat is about to become Wang Thin. Hehe. â
"Then he has to thank me, how rare it is to succeed in labor and weight loss!" Qi Tianxiang teased: "Why didn't Master Huang see it? And what about my sister? â
"Master Huang is the chief convener, this will be his busiest time, not to mention your sister, before and after, count her tired, post notices, and contact the neighborhood committee, I really didn't expect such a thin woman, where did she get so much enthusiasm and vitality." Wang Shi'an kept sighing: "That is, I am a little free, and I am responsible for receiving you in the division of labor, and I can't interfere with anything." â
"The secretary of the party committee of such a big group, if you can't get your hands on it, you can't plug it in!" Qi Tianxiang smiled and teased, looked at Wang Shi'an's eyes full of kindness, and asked with concern: "I was embarrassed to ask when I met many people last time, according to the grapevine, you are about to become my brother-in-law, is there such a thing?" â
"There will be a lot of people here, let's go back and talk about it, let's talk about it later." Wang Shi'an's face turned red into a cloth in an instant, looked around and said in a loud voice, then adjusted his mood, changed the topic and said, "I'll accompany you to the office building to sit for a while!" Mayor Ma and Chairman Zhu Lin are here! â
"Let them sit, they can sit still in such a hot atmosphere." Qi Tianxiang smiled slightly and said, "If you want to be busy, go and be busy, I'll go around casually." â
"That's not good, my job is to accompany you, I'm not going anywhere." Wang Shi'an argued with a smile, and followed Qi Tianxiang to the center of the square slowly.
Qi Tianxiang shook his head helplessly, looked at Wang Shi'an and smiled, and smiled happily. The so-called people are in good spirits on happy occasions, this is true, Wang Shi'an's face is red and moist, and he can't see the listlessness of a few years ago at all, his expression looks confident and comfortable, and he can no longer see the sorrow and depression of the past. After the fall of the minister, the stubborn wife had no support, and she restrained a lot, and later went through the early retirement procedures, went to the United States to accompany her son, and the two went through the divorce procedures before going abroad, which can be regarded as an end to this absurd marriage.
Since then, Wang Shi'an has regained his freedom, from the fast son-in-law of Chenglong, the chairman of the group's trade union more than 20 years ago, the lucky young worker who bravely picked the flowers of the Propaganda Department, to the lonely lonely man who kept the empty house alone, and then to the green hat king who raised his son for others. Everything is absurd and humiliating, which makes this dignified seven-foot man discouraged and angry, and it is difficult to relax, so he can only wash his face with tears, drown his sorrows with wine, and even deliberately avoid staying away from his wife and slut. Now that I'm finally free, I'm able to breathe freely and live my life with ease.
Without the pressure of thought and life, Wang Shi'an, who is full of vitality, has become more enthusiastic and enthusiastic about work. After a huge personnel shock, Hezhou Heavy Machinery Group needs to regain its vitality and vitality, and the modern enterprise system also needs to be held down by prudent cadres, after several setbacks, Wang Shi'an, who served as the chairman of the board of supervisors of the group, was appointed as the secretary of the party committee of the group, and truly became the political helmsman of a large state-owned enterprise group.
As it turned out, this choice was not only the right one, but also crucial. In the face of the small number of local cadres left by the group company, the appointed management personnel from provinces and cities, and the professional managers selected and hired by the whole country, Wang Shi'an's existence to a large extent not only alleviated the suppression of local cadres, but also neutralized the strength of the appointed cadres, and also gave the selected cadres a safe environment. In the following years of business integration and recovery of the group, Wang Shi'an played a good role as an advanced model worker from the worker, took the lead in setting an example, perfected and restored and formulated a series of corporate culture, youth post training and spiritual civilization construction content, re-stimulated the vigorous vitality of the group enterprise, so that the achievements of spiritual civilization construction have well promoted the production and business activities of the enterprise, and the group's appearance has undergone tremendous changes, becoming an effective driving force for the simultaneous development of the group's economic benefits. It has been greatly affirmed and praised by provincial and municipal leaders. And Wang Shi'an himself, more than 20 years later, reappeared in the ranks of model workers, becoming a model of political cadres in the new era.
Today's Wang Shi'an can be described as proud, no wonder Qi Tianxiang had an obvious feeling when he saw Wang Shi'an for the first time, but he hadn't fully understood the real reason for Wang Shi'an's radiant appearance. When I asked him and Wang Baokun to come over, the main thing was to discuss the composition of the workers' self-help organization and the establishment of the meeting.
Through the active contact of Master Huang and others, especially the concentrated follow-up reports of newspapers and television stations, the laid-off unemployed workers helped themselves and helped each other, which aroused great interest in the society. In particular, the renovation of Sister Qin's kitchen and bathroom has brought a great demonstration effect, and many families in a bungalow courtyard have asked for similar renovations, and they also hope that Sister Qin can find Master Huang and others to renovate and construct. After all, it is a professional technician, the quality and effect can be believed, and many people have also witnessed or participated in the renovation work, and the rigorous and serious work attitude of Master Huang and others is very appreciated.
More and more people come to consult and learn from experience, not only to consult the price and specific matters of old house renovation, but also to consult how to join it. For all the people who came, Master Huang and others warmly received and answered questions, and made a lot of leaflets and explanatory texts to introduce the intention of helping each other and the service projects, which were well promoted to publicity. In just a few dozen days, there are more than 100 people who ask to join and seek cooperation, and there are people from all walks of life, various skills and types of work, and many people simply participate directly and do their work.
In the face of more and more people who consult, as well as those who need help with various problems, despite the assistance of reporters and people from all walks of life, they still feel a little powerless, and it is really difficult to deal with it, and their work and life have been greatly affected. After all, as a cooperative form of mutual aid organization, it relies on the simplicity and simplicity of interpersonal relationships, and does not involve a lot of economic interests.
Nowadays, the sudden appearance of people from all walks of life and different regions asking for help or asking to join has indeed complicated and confusing simple things, how to coordinate, how to distribute work, how to calculate remuneration, so that several initiators who were originally workers feel a headache, and they have never been able to figure it out.
The matter was reflected to Qi Tianxiang, and in the face of the anxious eyes of Master Huang and Sister Qin, Qi Tianxiang also felt that things had exceeded expectations, and it was indeed a mixed blessing. After the incident was publicized and reported, the social repercussions were huge, and it also triggered the thinking of many enterprises, which played a good role in guiding and demonstrating the traditional virtues of mutual help in the society. But what cannot be ignored is that such things have also triggered social demand, produced an onlooker effect, followed the trend and took the opportunity to make money from time to time, and even caused social doubts, and there are ill-intentioned businessmen who take the opportunity to speculate, pointing out that the matter is a political plot to purify the urban environment and drive out migrant workers in the city.
This aroused Qi Tianxiang's vigilance, and he was able to rise to a political perspective to look at workers' self-help, and to be able to attack with the goal of driving out migrant workers, naturally it would not be the actions of a very small number of ordinary people, and the purpose of the rumors was to Qi Tianxiang and the improvement of people's livelihood that he advocated, which caused Qi Tianxiang's vigilance to be certain, and also made Qi Tianxiang pay more attention to the guidance of the direction and the formulation of rules. These seemingly unimportant things now seem to be necessary.
Qi Tianxiang did not give Master Huang and Sister Qin a satisfactory answer, but asked them to open their minds, contact and convene more laid-off unemployed workers, combine them by interest or region, set up an organization similar to the enterprise trade union, and formulate a convention or operating code as soon as possible, and there will be people to guide and assist when necessary.
At the same time, under the pseudonym of the theoretical edition of the city newspaper, Liang Bingyu successively published three theoretical articles, "Unity is Strength", "Hand in Hand Warmth", and "Everyone's Great Love", which theoretically expounded on the issues of workers' mutual assistance and self-help, people's livelihood care and purification of the social environment, focusing on solving practical difficulties, improving living conditions, and liberating productive forces. It is not only theoretical, but also highly pertinent.
At the same time, the Municipal Federation of Trade Unions and social security institutions were urged to intervene as soon as possible, formulate relevant supervision and support methods, and do good things well and practically, and held a coordination meeting of the two departments respectively, and handed over the responsibility for the implementation to Ma Quanming and Zhu Lin, limiting the time and method, as well as specific regulatory requirements.
Due to the timely response, especially the adjustment of the idea of mutual aid, Master Huang quickly reported back the news, and the trade unions in various urban areas and large enterprises have appointed personnel to make intentional contact with the laid-off unemployed people in their jurisdictions, and the personnel who are willing to participate in mutual aid organizations are classified according to age, gender and skills, and encourage the establishment of mutual aid cooperatives. The social security institutions have introduced relief and subsidy policies, and in addition to the corresponding subsidies according to the labor income, the social security institutions have also appropriately reduced or exempted the payment of pensions for those who participate in mutual aid organizations.
The introduction of these measures has greatly promoted the upsurge in the establishment and formation of mutual aid organizations, and in a short period of 10 days, more than 470 mutual aid organizations have been registered in various urban areas, not including mutual aid organizations mainly set up by large enterprises. According to the statistics of the Municipal Federation of Trade Unions and the Labor and Social Security Bureau, as well as Master Huang and Sister Qin, the total number has reached more than 600, involving nearly 20,000 laid-off and unemployed workers, and preparations are being made to hold the inaugural meeting of the city's mutual aid organizations in the near future.
When Master Huang told Qi Tianxiang the news, he couldn't hide the excitement in his heart, and he could hear his excitement on the phone, but he still didn't forget the invitation, and sincerely hoped that Qi Tianxiang would be able to attend the event when he arrived.
Qi Tianxiang agreed to Master Huang's invitation, and suggested that the inaugural meeting should be held in the brilliant square of Hezhou Heavy Machinery Group, and the momentum could be bigger, and then reporters from TV stations and newspapers could be invited to carry out propaganda reports. Regarding Master Huang's doubts and worries, Qi Tianxiang smiled and told him that he only needed to notify the staff to arrive at the meeting, and he would arrange other things.
This is also the meeting plan that Qi Tianxiang has thought of a long time ago, but he didn't tell Master Huang in advance, and before that, he had already handed over the matter to Wang Shi'an and Wang Baokun to handle it, even so, he still convened the Federation of Trade Unions, the Labor and Social Security Bureau, Hezhou Heavy Machinery Group and Master Huang to sit together, discussed several times in detail, and negotiated several times on the date of the inaugural meeting, the agenda, especially the management and supervision of the cooperative organization, until everything was safe, Qi Tianxiang was a little relieved.
However, people are not as good as heaven, and at the end of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee a few days ago, the arranged plan was forced to be adjusted.
At the end of the meeting, Lin Dongsheng motioned to Qi Tianxiang to stay with his eyes, and after everyone left Lin Dongsheng's office, Lin Dongsheng did not have any politeness, and said straight to the point: "Recently, your Comrade Tianxiang has been very active!" Out of the limelight, I've heard that there will be a big event in a few days, so you're not going to give my old guy a chance to show his face? â
"I was about to report this to you, but I didn't dare to alarm you because I was afraid that you would be busy." Qi Tianxiang quickly understood the meaning of Lin Dongsheng's question, so he responded with a smart smile.
"If you are shocked or not, you can only know if you move, only if you move, can you know whether I am surprised, or surprised, or surprised, you have to give me some chance to adapt!" Lin Dongsheng smiled gently and motioned for Qi Tianxiang to sit down, and said in a deep voice, "It's only been more than two months!" Your comrade Tianxiang started with the people's livelihood, grasped the bull's nose of the cow in Hezhou City, and carefully deployed and implemented it carefully, the effect is very good, and it is also very effective, not simple! â
"It's worth your praise Secretary Lin, this is also forced to be helpless, there are now nearly 500,000 laid-off unemployed people in the city, and they are all old workers with skills and no skills, or no technology and no skills, and there is no way to find employment. Men as security guards, women as cleaners, is the best employment choice, but there are elderly people to support, children to care, their own bodies and are on the verge of unsustainable, some have dragged the sick body to work two jobs, or even three jobs, can not retire, and bear a pension and medical insurance of several hundred yuan a month, living conditions, living conditions are very unsatisfactory, but in this state, but in this state, but do not wait, do not fight, silently bear the pressure of society and life. Such a simple people's heart, such a kind people, if I don't do something for them with all my strength, my heart hurts like being pricked. Qi Tianxiang said emotionally, something bright was flashing in the corner of his eyes, and his words became heavy: "In the past, I really didn't know the living conditions of low-income groups in the city, although I could imagine it, but after seeing it, I found that the difficulties and hardships I could think of were so one-sided and unreal." â
"It's rare! What a rarity! All along, I have been deeply impressed by the integrity and kindness of your comrade Tianxiang, but I didn't expect your heart to hurt so easily, which is exactly the quality that our party cadres must have, but unfortunately many of our people have become numb and have become hard-hearted, and their hearts will no longer hurt, let alone be moved. Lin Dongsheng was moved by Qi Tianxiang's words, and said slowly: "We owe a lot of debts over the years, just now you talked about part of it, and also talked about the substance, as far as what you are doing now, it is to make up for the debts owed by your predecessor, or your predecessor's predecessor, but you have not complained, nor have you shirked, but to do it as your own business, this kind of courage to take responsibility is rare and valuable, and it is more spiritual." â
As Lin Dongsheng spoke, he waved his hand to stop Qi Tianxiang, and continued with a serious expression: "You don't have to say anything, let alone explain, I can only better show my attitude by shouting and cheering for you." I'm going to take part in your events, I'm going to speak and, if possible, I'm going to give flags to workers' mutual aid organizations. That's my attitude, you go back and prepare! â
After getting Lin Dongsheng's clear instructions, Qi Tianxiang did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly adjusted the plan and program when he came back, not only greatly increased the specifications of the event, but also changed the organizer of the event from the Federation of Trade Unions and the Labor and Social Security Bureau to the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government Organization, and all the members of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee at home participated, and added a flag-awarding link, after everything was ready, the report was formally formed and reported to the General Office of the Provincial Party Committee, and the leaders of the Provincial Party Committee were invited to attend the inaugural meeting.
Now this is Qi Tianxiang's most nervous moment, although he knows that all the steps are being carried out in an orderly manner, he still rushed to the venue in advance, hoping to implement the agenda again.
Accompanied by Wang Shi'an, he turned around and looked at the preparations of the various teams in the square, listened to Master Huang's detailed explanation, especially saw Wang Baokun's sweaty expression and sworn assurance, and was convinced that the entire inaugural meeting was ready, and there was really nothing for him to worry about, so he walked to the office building and walked into the conference room with satisfaction.
The preparatory meeting is only symbolic, in fact, it is only a place where the Standing Committee members and the deputy mayors of the municipal government who arrived in advance are waiting together, that is, where everyone can meet and talk about their specific feelings.
This is the most complete meeting of the Standing Committee and the leaders of the municipal government since Qi Tianxiang took office as secretary of the municipal party committee, in addition to the city's cadre conference, and it is also the highest standard of activities organized by the city recently. Therefore, Qi Tianxiang's speech not only touched on this event, but also emphasized the improvement of people's livelihood and the work of rebuilding social customs.
After Qi Tianxiang finished speaking, the housing construction also lost no time in talking, the focus is also on paying attention to the people's livelihood, paying attention to the survival and life of vulnerable groups, and requiring all units and departments to come up with practical measures to make real contributions to the improvement of the social atmosphere. If Qi Tianxiang's general talk is a requirement and a hope, Fang Jianjian's speech seems empty, and it seems that he is only speaking for the sake of speaking, and has no clear purpose.
It wasn't until ten o'clock that Qi Tianxiang and the others slowly walked out of the office building and patiently waited for the arrival of Lin Dongsheng and Guo Nengliang on the side of the rostrum of Brilliant Plaza
