Chapter 63: Undercurrents 2
"Hey, it's early enough, and it doesn't matter if I'm free here." Lin Dongsheng's warm eyes glanced at Qi Tianxiang, slowly stood up from behind the desk, stretched out his hand to signal Qi Tianxiang to sit on the sofa in the reception area, and then walked out with difficulty, walked slowly and said, "I really envy you for walking freely!" ”
"Didn't you do it well last time? What's wrong with that? Qi Tianxiang looked at Lin Dongsheng with concern, and wanted to reach out to help him, but Lin Dongsheng waved his hand and refused, so he could only watch him sit down slowly, and then sit down, and said uneasily: "No, I'll come another day." ”
"Forget it, ** is sick, just endure it, the lumbar vertebrae are compressed together, what is the use of traction, unless you lie in bed and don't move." Lin Dongsheng waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "It's not easy for your Comrade Tianxiang to come once, and you came so early, why are you embarrassed to call your return ticket?" ”
Seeing that Lin Dongsheng was in a good mood, Qi Tianxiang was not in a hurry to say something, and instead said to himself: "Of course it must be earlier, otherwise you won't invite me to dinner after the discussion, and I won't dare to invite you, I haven't eaten when I go back late, why am I bothering?" ”
"Are you sorry to say this? I invite you to eat, do you eat? What kind of nutritious porridge is not nutritious, steamed buns and small pickles are not nutritious, and said that my wife's cooking is not delicious, have you eaten it and said that it is not delicious? It's not delicious, can I eat it for decades? Besides, have you invited me to dinner over the years? How do you know please don't move me? Lin Dongsheng stared at Qi Tianxiang and questioned Qi Tianxiang repeatedly, then shook his head and asked suspiciously: "I have no food to eat when I go back, according to my understanding of Xiao Yan, this is definitely not enough, where is the old governor, the old lady baby is also waiting for you, will you eat otherwise?" Honestly, is it the home you went back to? ”
Looking at Qi Tianxiang's astringent expression, Lin Dongsheng laughed, picked up the cigarette on the coffee table and asked, "Smoke yours, or smoke mine?" As soon as the smoking ban was issued, I smoked like this, as if I had made a mistake. ”
"Of course it's pumping you, who still smokes it!" Qi Tianxiang took the cigarette handed by Lin Dongsheng, got up and lit a fire for Lin Dongsheng, and said with a hippie smile: "We are the city's regulations, not against you, and I declare that this is not my regulation, but a measure of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection to rectify their work style and strengthen discipline." ”
"You know how comfortable it is to smoke a good cigarette? As you would say. Lin Dongsheng glared at Qi Tianxiang with a smile, and said seriously: "There is nothing wrong with such a move, at least let some cadres understand that it is not okay to eat more and occupy more." Now there is a perception that if you are not greedy, you are a good cadre, but you do not understand that corruption is actually more terrible than greed. Greed is to quietly put the benefits that should not be taken into his pocket, and he has the characteristics of being sneaky and not seeing people. Corruption is to make things that should not be done publicly, such as eating and drinking, such as spending public funds, such as private use of public cars, these seemingly ordinary things can be seen everywhere, and they have become a symbol of power and capital to show off. As a result, more people will learn and emulate, and over time it will become a natural and normal thing, and it will become a habit. Therefore, corruption can be one thing, or it can be two separate phenomena, and while punishing corruption, corruption must be cured. Punishment of corruption can be dealt with with heavy blows, thunder, and even strong men break their wrists, scrape bones to cure poison, but if it is caused by the way officials live and work, unrestrained rights and privileges are rampant, corrupt and degenerate, or more seriously, rotten, erosive lifestyles show a trend of decay or decadence, and spread in society on a large scale like a plague, then how can our party maintain its advanced nature, how can it have pure quality and morality to inspire the people, and what other ways can it save itself? ”
"That's what I understand, just not as deep as you." Qi Tianxiang looked at Lin Dongsheng with a serious expression, and said modestly: "This is also the reason why I asked Zhang Jianguo of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection to focus on rectification, eating and drinking are no trivial matter, as a leading cadre, you should understand these problems, know what you can do, and know what you can't do, and you should tighten a vigilant string in your heart." Before our party entered the city, the leaders of the older generation soberly warned the whole party to maintain a modest and prudent, arduous and simple style, guard against arrogance and rashness, guard against the corrosive and invasive of the bourgeoisie's sugar-coated shells, and set an example by themselves. Sooner or later, the people will be ashamed, and they will be abandoned. ”
"That's what the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection did, slippery." Lin Dongsheng glared at Qi Tianxiang with a smile and said solemnly: "It is necessary to let some of our cadres draw the bottom line of discipline, and let them sit on pins and needles every day, walk on thin ice, be frightened, and carry out their work carefully, so that our officialdom environment and social atmosphere will be better, and the masses of the people will be basically satisfied." ”
"What you remind is that sometimes** looks powerful, in fact, if you think about it seriously, it's like this cigarette in your hand, you know that good cigarettes are easy to smoke, but if you indulge this feeling, **will become excessive, there will be more good cigarettes, or better cigarettes, and**endless, the pursuit of enjoyment will be endless, and there will be merchants and people with ulterior motives to cater to or satisfy this **. Over time, an insignificant cigarette will be more harmful than drugs, so as you said, set a bottom line and control the ** within the boundaries of discipline, good is good, but it can't be easily obtained, after hard work or perseverance, the good will be more cherished, and it will be more happy! Qi Tianxiang seemed to be a little excited, and couldn't help but fall into thought, "Just like when I was young, there were many children in the family, and there was not enough food to eat, especially fine grains, almost every day I ate two mixed steamed buns with yellow noodles and white noodles, and only during the New Year and the New Year can I eat pure white flour steamed buns, the happiness and joy at that moment are indescribable, and the happiness is actually so simple." ”
"It's rare for you to have such an understanding, it's rare for you to have such a mentality, in today's criticism and denial of the past, you can have such a clear understanding, it's really not simple." Lin Dongsheng's eyes lit up, looked at Qi Tianxiang with appreciation, and then said: "Now there seems to be such an understanding, as if only by proving the mistakes of the past, can we confirm the right now, this kind of thinking has risen to the political level, and it has become the dominant ideology, and there are a large number of literati who follow the trend, and even the ultra-left trend of thought has begun to be very loud, and the saying of taking turns to sit in the village is becoming more and more active in various negations and distortions. Western politicians are anxiously looking forward to the color revolution in our big eastern country, and they do not hesitate to use all kinds of means in terms of ideological guidance, financial support, and even organizational leadership, and there are also a large number of so-called prescient people in the country echoing each other, but these grim situations have been ignored by many of our party members and cadres, and even senior leading cadres, as if this is the inevitability of a market economy society, and is the necessity of the initial stage of socialism that has opened the door to the country. It will come at a heavy cost. Fortunately, at present, our central leadership collective has been highly aware of the danger of relaxing its absolute leadership position in the ideological field, and of the danger that the disorder of social order and disorderly moral character of the whole people has brought to social development, but it is easy to correct deviations, and it can be resolved with a single document or resolution, and thorough changes and corrections cannot be accomplished in a few years or decades, and we will continue to bear the price that we must pay for this kind of relaxation of education and indulgence in thinking. ”
"You're thinking too deeply, and you're looking far ahead. Far from it, just compare me with my precious son. The education we received as children was patriotism, love for the party, love for socialism, the spirit of collectivism, unity, sacrifice and dedication, while what my son received was competition, transcendence and getting ahead, and the struggle of individuality and self-interest, as if this is the meaning of life, and having wealth and status is the best embodiment of personal value. Qi Tianxiang looked at the expression on Lin Dongsheng's face seriously, saw his demeanor of patient listening, and knew that he was not impatient, so he continued: "Not long ago, I saw a TV series, which said that an excellent agent of our party who was lurking inside the enemy learned that his comrade's daughter was in prison when he completed the mission and evacuated, and in order to rescue the child, he did not hesitate to re-enter the tiger's den alone, and finally sacrificed his life. I don't know the tense twists and turns of the plot, or there is no good game to kill time, our family Liangliang actually patiently accompanied his mother to watch this series, when I saw the plot of the *** member who was not afraid of death generously, I couldn't help but sigh at the end of the regret. What stayed in Qingshan without fear of no firewood, what right to life is above all else, and sent a sigh, when I asked him why the *** member went back, why those martyrs would calmly face death, he couldn't come up, this is not his knowledge limitations, nor his quality understanding, but no one told them what the past was? What were the people of the past like? ”
Qi Tianxiang looked at Lin Dongsheng and said worriedly: "Someone has to tell them this, they have experienced a peaceful environment for too long, and they have become numb to the worries and crises, it seems that these are what they deserve, and they should enjoy them completely, but they haven't thought about what they need to be grateful for and what they should leave for later." As for the establishment of this motherland, they can deny the significance of the struggle between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, as if the current handshake and peace prove the boredom of the struggle in the past, and even ridicule Dong Cunrui's heroism and Liu Hulan's righteousness. For the builders of this country, while enjoying the rich foundation built by the older generation with sweat and hard work, they laughed at the spiritual qualities of Wang Jinxi and Chen Yonggui. Once these essential things are completely denied, especially after a long period of time, what will our party and our country still rely on to unite the people's hearts and strength, and without the inheritance and continuation of traditional civilization and the inspiration of spirit and faith, what will our nation rely on to survive and develop? ”
"Your vision and thoughts are much deeper than those of an old man like me, and what is even more gratifying is that you not only think, but also act." Lin Dongsheng looked at Qi Tianxiang with approval on his face, and said with satisfaction: "During this period, the discussion on social customs, the improvement of people's livelihood, and the rectification of the work style of organs have been very effective, and the results are constantly emerging, and you will definitely receive satisfactory results in time." ”
"Thank you Secretary Lin for your encouragement, all the efforts for so long are hoping to have some effect, but I am also worried that it will be difficult to return!" Qi Tianxiang let out a long sigh and said worriedly: "Sometimes I am full of confidence, and sometimes I feel that I am a bit like a father who praises day by day, Jingwei who reclaims the sea, and even a fool who digs mountains. ”
"When you think about this, do you think about the children who are still struggling? Have you consulted the laid-off unemployed who are still waiting for change? Have you thought about the colleagues who are still working with you? Lin Dongsheng's face was gloomy, and he said sternly: "You can be miserable or tired, but you can't relax, let alone give up, and you won't even be allowed to stop, because you are a member of the Communist Party of China, a party member and leading cadre, and the party and the organization have handed over a city with a population of seven million to you to manage, and you have the responsibility to take responsibility for the beauty of the city, even if you sacrifice your own interests and even your life for it." ”
"I'm just saying, you are my squad leader and big brother, and it is my right to report to you on the dynamics of your thoughts." Qi Tianxiang met Lin Dongsheng's stern gaze, and pretended to be aggrieved and said: "There is pressure in my heart, and I have pimples in my thoughts, and I can only complain to you, who else can I tell you?" ”
Qi Tianxiang's grievances caused Lin Dongsheng to smile happily, and then he changed his tone, solemnly pointed to Qi Tianxiang's document bag, and said unquestionably: "This delayed me all afternoon, just to report on the ideological dynamics?" Do you have a thought report in that bag, take it out and let me see. ”
Qi Tianxiang looked at Lin Dongsheng and smiled, opened the document bag, took out the envelope, and handed it to Lin Dongsheng respectfully with both hands.
"Hey, it's so formal, it seems to have a lot of weight." Lin Dongsheng looked at Qi Tianxiang playfully, took the envelope, took out the materials and read them carefully, put down the materials after only reading a few pages, and asked sternly: "What do you mean?" ”
"This is the material that Minister Liu Zhengguo handed over to me yesterday, saying that he just received a report letter, let me take a look, I am not sure, so I bring it over and ask you to take a look." Qi Tianxiang honestly met Lin Dongsheng's questioning gaze, and said seriously: "This happened a few years ago, and it was reported directly to the provincial party committee and provincial government. ”
"That's your attitude?" Lin Dongsheng looked at Qi Tianxiang directly, then looked down at the date of payment behind the material, thought for a while and said: "I have an impression of this material, I saw it a few years ago, the content is basically the same, and now it seems that there is still some intention to take it out again." ”
"My attitude is very clear, Fang Jianshe is my partner, Fan Tao is also my colleague, I can't stay out of the matter, let alone stand on the dry shore to watch jokes, this is not what my municipal party secretary should do, nor is it my character." Qi Tianxiang looked at Lin Dongsheng seriously, and said bluntly: "Frankly speaking, I am very disgusted by such a small action behind the scenes, and don't use my heart, as a leader of a superior department, every word and deed will have a great impact on the following, so I still think clearly and then do a good job." ”
"This is the strange appearance now, and it is also chaos, so it is not strange to see it. I just hope that you will be able to do your own thing seriously without distraction. Lin Dongsheng glanced at Qi Tianxiang deeply, and said gently: "As a squad leader, your attitude is very important, and being able to stand up for your colleagues and partners shows that you are selfless and frank in your heart, and it also shows your sense of responsibility." It's really incredible, you have just passed a short time, and the team situation has been handled so well, not only Lao Xu, Quanshui, these old comrades, but also Lao Fan, **, these high-powered and powerful factions, and Liang Bingyu was even more by your command of the regiment, the house construction I was most worried about at the beginning, but also actively cooperated with your rhythm, for you a young, inexperienced, and shallow foundation of the squad leader, how did you do it? It's kind of incredible. ”
"Sincerely." Qi Tianxiang looked directly at Lin Dongsheng and said solemnly: "As you said, I am young, I have no grassroots work experience, my qualifications and prestige are insufficient, and I am not a local cadre, what I can do is to treat my colleagues and partners sincerely." Think about it seriously, sometimes working together between colleagues is like living a life, as long as you treat each other sincerely, as long as the general direction is to live a good life, the rest is the details, who is high and who is low, what does it matter, and the contradictions within the family are not these things such as firewood, rice, oil and salt? What's the point of competing for a short time? ”
"The mountain is high and speechless, because it is indisputable, so it is indisputable. The sea is inclusive, because it does not give up, so there is no tolerance. Be an enemy of others, be an enemy of the world, be kind to others, and be kind to all of the world. This realm is not something that can be summarized simply in one sentence, nor is it innate, but the organic integration of knowledge and talent, and it is not easy to achieve. Lin Dongsheng looked at Qi Tianxiang with a slight smile and appreciation, and said in a different tone: "I know Fang Jianjian, there are many small problems, but there are no major problems, and he is bold and courageous, and he is very thoughtful in his work, especially with the strength of a desperate Sanlang, which is really good." ”
"Since I know it's good, I appreciate his hard work, but I don't give him a chance or a stage." Qi Tianxiang sighed and said: "For nearly ten years, in the position of mayor, no matter how strong the edges and corners have been smoothed. ”
"Do you see it that way? Is the mayor's platform bad? Can't you make the most of his ingenuity? Have you wronged him? Lin Dongsheng looked at Qi Tianxiang with a grim expression, as if he wanted to find the answer in Qi Tianxiang's eyes, paused for a moment, and then said slowly: "Now it seems that only the continuous rise of the position is the best praise for ability and contribution, and only the continuous adjustment is in line with common sense. It's not for the position under the ass, and it's not for some of your own selfishness? Didn't you really think about what your abilities are suitable for? Not to mention where the end is, such a view of political performance and vulgar concepts have created how many undeserved tragedies, and how many distorted values are there behind the overwhelming performance projects? Those who are suitable for selling tickets have to compete to drive, and those who drive have to direct traffic, it seems that how big the heart is, how big the stage is, this concept kills people! ”
"It's like building a house in the countryside, a pile of wood, what is suitable for making columns, what can be used as beams, not according to how much wood you prepare, but according to the material itself, pine can be used as a column, fir can be used as a girder, paulownia can only be used as a door panel, and poplar can only be used as a purlin. The right materials are used in the right place, and the house can be lived in for a long time although it is simple, otherwise there is a danger under the gorgeous appearance, and the house will collapse sooner or later, and the loss of property will be the worst, and the worst will be life-threatening. Lin Dongsheng stared at Qi Tianxiang, his eyes were full of severity and love, and then said: "Maxima often exists, but Bole does not often exist, it seems to be a kind of cause and effect inevitability, as if with Bole, all horses have the opportunity to become Maxima, this paradox has become a pretext for many talented people, and it has also become a commentary on the warmth and coldness of the world, which has harmed many people." In fact, Bole's actions are horses, is to judge the advantages and disadvantages of horses, not professional title evaluation, let alone horse trainers, Bole just tells people what is a thousand miles of horses, and the role is to put the right horse in a more suitable place. This point of Tian Ji horse racing is more revealing, Sun Bin just re-matched the horse, and won the victory, this is the best embodiment of resourcefulness, but also the best embodiment of vision and management talent. ”
"As soon as you say this, I understand that where to put it is not a matter of opportunity, but a reflection of ability." Qi Tianxiang smiled slowly and said: "What is needed is a correct understanding, and more patience and perseverance. ”
"Slippery, do you need me to talk about this? Don't you know better than I do? Lin Dongsheng glared at Qi Tianxiang with a tiger face, and then said slowly with a smile: "He has done a good job for so many years, he should know this, not moving his position is the best trust, looking at the problem from another angle, he will be relieved a lot." ”
As he spoke, Lin Dongsheng picked up the materials on the coffee table, weighed them and said slowly: "Don't take these things to heart, let alone care too much, just do your own work, don't consider other praises." ”
Qi Tianxiang looked at Lin Dongsheng's actions and words, and had the intention of ending the conversation, and after thinking for a while, he boldly said: "I don't dare to interfere with the decision-making of the provincial party committee, and I have no right to intervene, but I dare to say that I oppose the rumors that Wang Tao is going to take over the post of mayor, and this abnormal organizational appointment and removal procedure is not reasonable." A leader of a functional department with no experience at the grassroots level is against the norm to become a deputy mayor, and now he wants to become the mayor of a sub-provincial capital city, this phenomenon is too abnormal! ”
"What's normal? What makes sense? Is there a standard procedure and answer? Lin Dongsheng suddenly raised his voice, glared at Qi Tianxiang and said sharply, "Is your Qi Tianxiang's position normal?" Is the procedure reasonable? Do you have any grassroots work experience? In that city did you work as a party and government chief? Is it in line with the norm that the secretary of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection directly becomes a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee? Is it reasonable for a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee to directly serve as the secretary of the municipal party committee of the provincial capital? What's more, you also have a former provincial elder father-in-law, is all this so normal? ”
"If you punch and kick, and show your eighteen martial arts to the fullest, won't you be promoted by others? If you punch someone, you won't allow them to kick you back? How can there be such a truth in the world? Lin Dongsheng seemed to be angry and said: "You may be surprised, surprised, and unacceptable when these words come out of my mouth, but if these words come out of someone else's mouth, and they are not said to you, how do you feel?" ”
As he spoke, Lin Dongsheng picked up the cigarette case on the coffee table, took out a cigarette and threw it to Qi Tianxiang, softened his tone, and said slowly: "Many things need to be balanced, and the overall work is even more so. It's like negotiating, where concessions and compromises are skills and necessity. At the beginning, you have to show your hole cards, and the conditions are still very harsh, but as long as you are ready to talk and get some kind of result, you need to constantly make concessions and concessions, and if you meet some of the opponent's requirements and conditions, you can get the benefits you want. Sometimes it's economic interests, sometimes it's political demands, and that's true between countries, isn't it true between groups? What's all the fuss, you will not allow others to recover some lost territory if you attack the city with a flying spear? ”
"It's just that under this arrangement, there will be a lot of unpredictable problems, and many clues point to our deputy mayor, where there is a group of moths in the urban construction system under his management, and there is a promotion with illness, which will bring a lot of passivity in the future." Qi Tianxiang thought about it and said slowly: "These abnormalities are spreading, and the negative effects should not be underestimated!" ”
"You can't live if you do your own evil, that's an old saying, but many people have forgotten it." Lin Dongsheng smiled meaningfully, and said slowly: "This is like playing chess, masters play against each other, each has its own layout, only by playing your own chess well, can you restrain the opponent, otherwise you will always follow the changes of others' steps, and it will always be stinky chess." ”
Lin Dongsheng said slowly, looking at Qi Tianxiang's eyes full of concern, and said gently: "Take your own steps, lay out your own situation, and don't think about anything." In addition, I had a phone call with the old leader a few days ago, and he mentioned your anxiety and was very worried. In my opinion, it is better for you to go to the party school for a few days to study, meditate, read, and recuperate. ”
"Forget it! How can I have time! Qi Tianxiang stood up, picked up the document bag beside him, thought for a while, took out his own cigarette in the bag and gently put it on the coffee table, picked up a pack of unopened cigarettes, put it in the bag, and turned around to leave.
Lin Dongsheng, who had been silently looking at Qi Tianxiang, smiled in surprise and said, "Can I understand it like this, do you want me to taste your cigarettes, and then cooperate with your purge action?" ”
"You are an experienced politician, with a high degree of political consciousness, and political wisdom that is beyond my reach, so it is difficult for me to speculate on how to understand it." Qi Tianxiang glanced at Lin Dongsheng, pretended to sigh seriously, and said slowly: "Listening to you say so many profound instructions, I have to calm down and digest it well." ”
As he spoke, in Lin Dongsheng's comfortable laughter, he waved his hand and turned away, but his heart was happy and fulfilling.
