Chapter 303: Pushing the Boat with the Current
readx; Dong Liyun is Chinese New Year's Eve seven years old today, and it is a good time to do his career, but it is a pity that when he served as the deputy secretary general of Huazhou Municipal Axe, he inadvertently offended Chen Changrong, the current secretary of the municipal party committee who was the mayor at the time. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info plus he is not good at drilling, so he was assigned to Linshui in such a daze, and became the youngest deputy director of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress.
For marginalized deputy department-level cadres like him, whoever will be the secretary of the municipal party committee is the same. After all, Huazhou is still Chen Changrong's world, as long as Chen Changrong is still the secretary of the municipal party committee in Huazhou for a day, then he, a person with a criminal record, will not want to turn over. It is precisely because of this that Tian Wenjian has not been on the side of the municipal party committee since he took office, and he did not even attend the city's rural work conference yesterday morning.
Just because you don't look for others doesn't mean that others don't look for you.
As soon as he got to work early this morning, Qi Aiguo, chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress, asked him to come to the municipal party committee and accompany Secretary Tian to the veteran cadres bureau for investigation and investigation together with the leaders of other units in charge of the work of veteran cadres.
Doctor of Philosophy from Harvard University, Changjiang Scholar of the Ministry of Education, Professor of the Party School of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, Anti-corruption Expert, Senior Researcher of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences...... A scholar-type official who makes people think about it, he doesn't do so many things that should be done, and he actually cares about the work of old cadres! is neither a New Year's nor a festival, the first stop of Secretary Tianda's investigation surprised everyone, including Dong Liyun.
Two Coasters were parked in front of the foyer of the Municipal Party Committee Office Building, and the staff of the Municipal Party Committee Office were hurriedly moving condolences to the car. Wang Zhihao, director of the Municipal Party Committee Office, and Fu Wenyi, deputy director of the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee, who is in charge of the Bureau of Veteran Cadres, are grasping the list to check the number of condolences items.
There is no need to work so hard to buy people's hearts, and besides, the old cadres in Linshui don't seem to have done anything good except for making trouble. After retiring, they still miss power, pointing fingers all day long, saying that this is not good, saying that it is not, and even petitioning because of the treatment issue.
People's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants, and it is too difficult to satisfy them. Dong Liyun shook his head with a wry smile, secretly thinking that the newcomer Secretary Tian Da was still too young, as Mayor Zhou said, he had no local work experience, and he made a stinky move as soon as he came.
"Director Dong, you're here, I thought you would go directly to the Old Cadres Bureau." Fu Wenyi was elated, as if he was ten years younger.
If you think about it, it is no wonder that as deputy director of the Organization Department and director of the Bureau of Veteran Cadres, his power is not as great as that of the Cadre Section, and he does not have the slightest say in the inspection, appointment, dismissal, deployment, and exchange of cadres. And the newly appointed secretary of the municipal party committee put the first stop of the investigation in the veteran cadres bureau, which is really an opportunity for him to show his face.
Dong Liyun smiled, and while looking at the mountains of condolences piled up on the ground, she said with a smile: "Minister Fu, it seems that Secretary Tian attaches great importance to the work of veteran cadres." When it's time to fly, don't forget my brother. ”
Fu Wenyi glanced at the secretary's office upstairs, then leaned into his ear and said helplessly: "What Feihuang Tengda?" To put it bluntly, the leader opens his mouth and breaks his leg below. Brother Dong, don't scorn me. ”
"Come on, duplicity with me."
While speaking, Tian Wenjian walked out accompanied by Dong Bingliang. Wang Zhihao hurriedly walked up, ready to introduce him to Dong Liyun, who had just arrived, but Tian Wenjian shook his head, pointed to the time on his watch, and said expressionlessly: "It's not early, let's go, don't let the old comrades wait for a long time." ”
"Okay, let's go."
Wang Zhihao nodded, then turned around and asked with a smile: "Director Dong, are you going to go over with us or by your own car?" ”
The deputy director of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress is not qualified to have a special car, Dong Liyun glanced back at the Santana assigned to him by the office, shook his head and smiled: "The unit car is tight, I'll take your free ride." Anyway, the veteran cadres bureau is not far from my home, and I can go home for dinner directly after the meeting. ”
They spoke Linshui dialect, and Tian Wenjian didn't understand a word. For him now, language has become the biggest problem. Because the Linshui dialect is so difficult to learn, even more difficult than English and French. Not only does it retain the medieval voiced initials, but also the initials are composed of three parts: clean aspiration, non-aspiration and voiced sound, which retains the rhyme.
In addition, the vocabulary of the Linshui dialect is still very ancient, and the grammar is also very different from that of Mandarin and other Chinese dialects, as can be seen from the pronoun "you" pronounced in classical Chinese.
Seeing Tian Wenjian frowning, the secretary Xiao Dong hurriedly leaned into his ear, translated in a low voice, and introduced Dong Liyun, who was a family five hundred years ago.
Tian Wenjian reacted at this time, immediately stretched out his right hand, and said with an apologetic smile: "Director Dong, I'm slacking, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry." ”
Secretary Tian laughed, if you want to say sorry, then we are embarrassed. After all, the Linshui dialect is too difficult to understand, and we must learn and speak Mandarin well in the future, especially in front of you. ”
To Dong Liyun's surprise, Tian Wenjian actually waved his hand, motioned for him to sit beside him, and said unusually seriously: "Dialect is a kind of culture and a tradition, although it is influenced by the Jianzhou language of northern Wu language, southern Anhui Hui language, Jiangxi Gan language, and northern Fujian dialect, it has formed today's complex and diverse, but it retains a lot of ancient words, which can be called a living fossil of Chinese." It has a high research value, not only should not be self-indulgent, but should also be carried forward. ”
In the end, they are scholar-type officials, and their views on some issues are different. Dong Liyun secretly praised it, and then laughed and said: "I didn't expect Secretary Tian to study our Linshui dialect so much, so that those of us who know it but don't know why it is ashamed." ”
Wang Zhihao nodded, and lost no time in complimenting: "Yes, Secretary Tian doesn't say it, we really don't know that there are so many words on our lips all day long." ”
"You guys, can you tell me the truth?"
Tian Wenjian scolded with a smile, then his face turned straight, and he said very seriously: "It is important to promote Mandarin, but we must not overdo it and abandon the tradition that has been maintained for thousands of years. A good tradition can influence the values of several generations or even dozens of generations. Especially today, when morality is lacking and the building of spiritual civilization has entered a dead end, we must all the more get rid of the dross, excavate and carry forward the essence of it, and build a new social moral system in accordance with local conditions. ”
Although these words sounded a bit like singing a high note, they made Dong Liyun feel very touched. You must know that Linshui has a long history, there are ancient Xu Dan in the early Zhou Dynasty, the Spring and Autumn Period, the Han Dynasty Gaotu Longqiu Chang, Xu Ling, the Three Kingdoms Xu Ping, the Jin Dynasty Chen Hong, the Southern Dynasty Xu Bozhen...... In modern times, there are Yu Shao Song, Hua Gang, Xu Yixin of the Republic of China, and they are known as the "Holy Land of Southern Confucius".
According to historical records, among all the Jinshi in the Song Dynasty, Linshui accounted for more than 250, ranking second among all states in the country. From Xu Fanzhi and Yan Yanzhi's establishment of Mengshan Jingshe to Zhu Xi's lectures here, there have been famous Kezhai Lecture Houses, Qingxian Academy, Luming Academy, Jinglian Academy, Zhengyi Academy, Keshan Academy and Baoshan Academy.
But thousands of years have passed, who can still remember that it has become a county-level city? It is not that the previous political axes have not excavated these, but they have a strong utilitarian color, not to enhance popularity, or to develop tourism resources, and it seems to have nothing to do with the people.
Thinking of Linshui, who has cultivated countless talents, but now education is far behind, Dong Liyun couldn't help but sigh: "If we don't do education again, then we are really ashamed of our ancestors and ancestors." ”
Linhai is a large economic province and a large industrial province, and compared with several other provinces, it is definitely not a large education province.
Perhaps the business atmosphere is too strong, or the employment situation is too grim, many young people do not even go to middle school, and after graduating from primary school, they go out to work or do business, which has indeed created a group of people who got rich first, and a large number of small and medium-sized enterprises have also appeared. However, they are all labor-intensive enterprises with low technical content, and even family workshops, and their stamina is obviously insufficient.
Vision determines height, and height determines the direction of development. Before Tian Wenjian took office, his group of like-minded friends pointed out the huge risks involved. But the meal has to be eaten bite by bite, and it takes a long time to guide you to solve this problem fundamentally.
Dong Liyun's words surprised Tian Wenjian, because in Linshui, where the business atmosphere is very strong and even many cadres are involved in business, there are too few cadres who can attach so much importance to education. What's more, the fact that such a young cadre is vice chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress is a strange thing in itself.
At this time, Fu Wenyi, deputy director of the Organization Department, came over with a smile on his face, and said cautiously in a mouthful of Linshui Mandarin: "Secretary Tian, why don't I report to you about today's agenda first." ”
Tian Wenjian came to his senses, and while motioning for him to sit in the front row, he smiled and said, "Say it." ”
"Based on your instructions, I have cancelled the scheduled welcome ceremony. The symposium officially began at half past eight o'clock, and was reported by Deputy Director Chen of the Veteran Cadres Bureau, Deputy Director Wang of the Personnel Bureau, Deputy Director Han of the Labor Bureau, and representatives of veteran cadres. At 10:20 a.m., I would like to invite you to make an important speech. Then, on behalf of the Municipal Party Committee, he distributed condolences to the representatives of the veteran cadres and had lunch with the representatives of the veteran cadres......"
The arrangement was very thoughtful, and the only thing that made Tian Wenjian dissatisfied was that he actually recruited a reporter from the county TV station.
Low-key, low-key, what Tian Wenjian needs now is to be low-key, he doesn't want to cause any more controversy, and he doesn't want the people to think that people are superficial, so he blurted out without thinking about it: "Let the people from the TV station go back, and I will reiterate that without my permission, no more propaganda about me shall be carried out." ”
"Secretary Tian, this ...... This...... This, that's not quite right, right? ”
Fu Wenyi was anxious, and said with a wry smile: "You are the secretary of the municipal party committee, if you don't publicize it, the 460,000 people in Linshui don't even know what you look like." Besides, if you don't accept interviews, then other city leaders will ......"
"Do county TV stations have high ratings?"
Without waiting for him to finish, Tian Wenjian pulled down his face and said coldly: "In addition to advertisements are advertisements, even I can't stand it, can ordinary people watch it?" Director Wang, go back to Vice Minister Wang of the Propaganda Department and ask him to take a good look at those advertisements in the radio and television system, and don't get into the eyes of money with all his minds, and even know that he has broken the law. ”
Either selling medicine or treating infertility, or some expert lecture, Wang Zhihao reacted, quickly took out his notebook, and nodded while writing it down quickly: "Yes, Secretary Tian, I will call Vice Minister Wang." ”
The waterfront urban area is not big, and I arrived at the old cadre bureau at the end of Zhongshan Road while speaking. Several cadres had been waiting at the door for a long time, and there was a big red slogan hanging above their heads: "Warmly welcome the leaders of the municipal party committee to come to our bureau to inspect the work."
Seeing a male reporter carrying a camera, a tall and beautiful female reporter holding a microphone, Tian Wenjian sat still, and waited for Secretary Dong to get out of the car and let them go back, only then accompanied by Wang Zhihao, director of the Municipal Party Committee Office, and Fu Wenyi, deputy director of the Organization Department, got out of the Toyota bus and shook hands with the comrades of the Cadre Bureau.
The forum was arranged at the veteran cadres activity center, and the responsible persons of various units in charge of the work of veteran cadres and more than a dozen representatives of veteran cadres with high political consciousness immediately gave warm applause when they saw Tian Wenjian walking in under the support of the crowd.
Respecting the old and loving the young is a fine tradition of the Chinese nation, and Tian Wenjian did not make any enthusiastic speeches, nor did he sit down directly, but walked among the representatives of the veteran cadres and shook hands and greeted them one by one.
“…… Under the direct leadership of the bureau's party group and in accordance with the spirit of the relevant documents of the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee, the veteran cadres of the Education Bureau have carried out a variety of activities to create a harmonious and civilized collective, centering on the school and proceeding from the reality of retired teachers and staff. The following will report to Secretary Tian on the work of the past year:
The first is to establish a scientific outlook on development and strengthen leadership. The work of veteran cadres is a work with a strong policy surname, and it is not only related to social stability, but also a major issue that has a direct bearing on the image of our party and on the cohesion of our party......
After the deputy director of the veteran cadres bureau finished speaking, the deputy director of the labor bureau finished speaking the speech of the deputy director of the education bureau, and it was still the same thing, which is nothing more than how important the work of veteran cadres is and how they attach importance to it.
Seeing that the two respected veteran cadres were snoring, Tian Wenjian coughed dryly, and while looking around at everyone, he talked eloquently: "Comrades, veteran cadres are an important political force to support the construction and development of Linshui, an important group to promote the harmonious development of Linshui, and an important resource for educating young people and cultivating the next generation.
Looking back on the development process of Linshui, all of them are permeated with the hard work and sweat of the majority of retired cadres, without their bloody struggle and hard work, there would be no good situation in Linshui today.
Veteran cadres are highly respected, have rich work experience, have a deep mass foundation, and have a wide social influence. They have gone through the wind, frost, rain and snow, tasted the ups and downs, felt the joys and sorrows, and witnessed the vicissitudes of life. This kind of experience is not only an ideological rationality, but also a kind of political maturity......"
Secretary Tian Da was full of anger and spoke with emotion, and even the old men who were dozing off opened their eyes and reluctantly gave them sparse applause. Dong Bingliang, who had been holding back for most of the day, almost laughed out loud, secretly thinking that they had been waiting for Secretary Tian to speak for a long time, right? Only when Secretary Tian finishes speaking, can he have condolences and lunch.
At this moment, there was a commotion outside the activity center. Fu Wenyi's face suddenly fell, glared at Deputy Director Chen of the Veteran Cadres Bureau, and asked through gritted teeth, "What's the matter?" Don't go out and check it out yet! ”
Deputy Director Chen's head was big, he glanced at Tian Wenjian, who was expressionless, and was about to get up and go out, when more than a dozen old men and old ladies rushed in, pointing at Deputy Director Chen, Deputy Director Wang of the Personnel Bureau, and Deputy Director Han of the Education Bureau, just scolding angrily.
The sudden change made Tian Wenjian cry and laugh, and secretly thought that it was better to drive the TV reporter away, otherwise this joke would really be a big one. Just when he was thinking about how to end the game, after scolding the bureau chiefs, the old men and old ladies came around, scrambling to react to the situation, speaking loudly and foaming, but unfortunately Secretary Tianda's Linshui language had just begun to learn, and their reaction was that they didn't understand a word.
Secretary Dong hurriedly squeezed in and whispered in his ear: "The tall man is the old county magistrate, he said that the Organization Department and the Veteran Cadres Bureau did not notify him of such an important meeting. The chubby one is the old director of the Education Bureau, and he is very dissatisfied with the work of the old cadres in the bureau, and he does not visit during the New Year's holidays, and the policy subsidies are not in place.
Several other veteran comrades, namely the No. 1 Municipal Middle School, the Personnel Bureau, the Labor Bureau, and the Agricultural Bureau, were dissatisfied with the current leading body of the bureau and the leading body of the school, saying that they did not attach importance to the work of the veteran cadres, did not listen to the opinions of the veteran comrades, and even embezzled [***]. The most important thing is that the treatment of veteran cadres in various units cannot be equal, and favoring one over the other depends entirely on relationships. ”
Secretary Tian Da just said that old cadres are the precious wealth of the party and the people, and in the face of this group of old guys who are fierce and determined to stir up the situation, Fu Wenyi is so angry that he gritted his teeth, and he really didn't know what to say.
I can't touch it, I can't scold it, and even Wang Zhihao, the master of the mud, was completely dumbfounded, standing there dumbfounded, speechless for a long time.
"Secretary Tian, you are a leading cadre from the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, you have to call the shots for us!"
"Yes, I've only been retired for three years, and a good labor bureau has been made into a miasma by these rabbit cubs, and the seven aunts and eight aunts are all nepotism, you must check it carefully."
……… The veteran cadres are full of excitement and have a great tendency to pull down the current leadership group and then go up and continue to do it. talking faintly on stage, wanting to stay on stage for a long time; Retire to tell the truth, and the picture will be praised forever among all living beings! This is a major feature of Chinese officialdom.
Tian Wenjian pondered for a moment, and while smiling and beckoning these uninvited guests to take a seat, he said with a smile: "Everyone, please be quiet, since it is a symposium, then let's sit down and have a good talk." ”
Looking at the elated appearance of the old man and the old lady, Wang Zhihao's lungs were about to be blown up, and he couldn't help but lean into his ear and whispered: "Secretary Tian, they will mess around, what is there to talk about with them?" ”
Without waiting for Tian Wenjian to speak, an old cadre immediately stood up, pointed at his nose and scolded angrily: "Wang Zhihao, you ungrateful thing, if I hadn't pulled you back then, your kid would still be farming in the village!" ”
"Don't think we don't know about all the you did, and kicked your nose in the face."
Seeing that the old men were angry again, Tian Wenjian hurriedly stood up, and while motioning for Wang Zhihao and the others to go out, he said solemnly: "Seniors, first of all, I would like to say a humble word to everyone on behalf of the municipal party committee. Because of today's forum, the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee and the Bureau of Veteran Cadres did not make proper arrangements, and they did not notify everyone to participate.
At the same time, please speak Mandarin as much as possible, otherwise we will not be able to communicate. I would like to ask for your understanding of this and hope that you will be my teachers so that I can master the local dialect with a long history and strong local characteristics as soon as possible. ”
Tian Wenjian said very sincerely, and the old men stopped. In fact, for them, they just want to take this opportunity to seek justice, not that they really want to get along with Tian Wenjian.
Due to their special status, they can "speak freely" regardless of whether the leaders are not there or not. In the next hour or so, more than 100 questions, large and small, were reflected, but they were all trivial things, as well as some groundless and unfounded rumors.
For others, this is a troublesome matter, but for the ambitious Tian Wenjian, it is a good opportunity to open up the situation. Just when the old men said that they were tired of drinking water, Tian Wenjian stood up and said with a smile on his face: "Seniors, the problems you reacted to can be summarized as follows: first, the treatment is not the same, and you can't achieve a bowl of water; Second, the current leadership does not attach importance to and does not adopt the opinions of the veteran comrades; Third, the current leadership team does not attach importance to the work of veteran cadres; ”
Seeing that the old men had no different opinions, Tian Wenjian changed his words and continued: "It can be seen that there are still problems in the work of the old cadres of the municipal party committee and municipal axe, and the problems are very big. If there is a problem, I am not afraid, but I am afraid not to solve the problem. Although I will not be able to come up with a foolproof plan for a while, I can make a few comments.
In light of the current reality, I believe that the original thinking on the work of veteran cadres is too outdated, and even lags behind. Therefore, I decided to strengthen the leadership of the Bureau of Veteran Cadres, enrich the strength of the Bureau of Veteran Cadres, and separate the work of veteran cadres from the bureaus and committees, and put the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee and the Bureau of Veteran Cadres under the unified responsibility.
In this way, it not only solves the problem of unfair welfare treatment, but also provides better services. At the same time, it can also connect with the Municipal Party Committee, the Municipal Axe and the Municipal People's Congress, fully listen to the opinions of the old-timers, and let us take some detours in our future work. ”
There are good and bad units, and the benefits after retirement are also different. As a result, the veteran cadres in the education system have been wiped out, but the welfare benefits of veteran cadres in units such as the Personnel Bureau and the Labor Bureau may not be as good as before.
But the matter was made by himself, and Tian Wenjian made such a minority obey the majority, and no one could say anything. Just when everyone regretted it, Tian Wenjian continued: "In fact, I am also very dissatisfied with the work of the Organization Department and the Veteran Cadres Bureau.
In the future, it is necessary to strengthen the self-building of the departments working with veteran cadres and realize the humanism, refinement, and scientificization of the work of veteran cadres. The specific ideas still need to be brainstormed, but before that, I decided to organize a tour for all my seniors to go to Hong Kong to take a walk and have a look, so as to fulfill the long-cherished wish that Comrade Xiaoping has not been able to fulfill. ”
Traveling to Hong Kong is a good thing! What's more, as soon as people open their mouths, they are going to travel to Hong Kong, so how bad can the welfare of the veteran cadres bureau be?
As Tian Wenjian expected, the old cadres were extremely satisfied, and they did not hesitate to praise them, claiming that Secretary Tian was approachable, had no shelves, and cared very much about the old cadres, unlike those white-eyed wolves who looked down on people and did not take them as old-timers in their eyes.
After such a toss, lunch was naturally unbearable, and after hurriedly distributing the condolences, Tian Wenjian shook hands with the old men and old ladies to say goodbye, and went to the next stop of the investigation - the Municipal Bureau of Justice.
"Secretary Tian, did you really organize them to travel to Hong Kong?" As soon as he got into the bus, Fu Wenyi, deputy director of the Organization Department, couldn't help but ask.
Looking at his puzzled look, Tian Wenjian smiled and said casually: "Yes, you are personally responsible for this matter." I'll arrange for you to do a good job of organizing the tour and be responsible for their safety along the way. ”
Dong Bingliang didn't want his boss to be in trouble on this issue, so he hurriedly reminded: "Secretary Tian, there are so many old cadres, how to arrange who goes and who doesn't?" Besides, this cost must be indispensable, if it is used by others to make a fuss, then you will be passive. ”
The establishment of the veteran cadres bureau itself is the biggest injustice, they are also retirees, why do workers have no treatment, but old cadres can enjoy all kinds of preferential treatment? If you don't put these people on the table, don't think about completing the planned pension merger, in fact, this is also the reason why Tian Wenjian put the first stop of his research in the Veteran Cadres Bureau.
Reform has to pay a little price, spend a million now, you can save 100 million in the future, Tian Wenjian will not miss this opportunity, after thinking about it, Feng Yunyun said lightly: "The composition of the tour group must be a bowl of water, and it is best to let them be boiled in the system." The number of people is tentatively set at 100 people, and they cannot bring their families and children, and the cost is from the publicity funds, so you can spend as much as you want, and don't have any worries. ”
"What about stripping and resuming?" Wang Zhihao pondered for a moment and couldn't help asking.
"If you don't strip it, isn't this money spent in vain?"
Tian Wenjian turned around and said with a smile: "Say hello to Mayor Zhou, ask him to take the lead, and let the Personnel Bureau, the Labor Bureau and the Finance Bureau work together with the Veteran Cadres Bureau to come up with a plan to solve this problem once and for all." ”
Such an inconspicuous matter involves sensitive political system reform. If all the veteran cadres are brought under the control of the veteran cadres bureau, it means that all units will no longer have to serve these retired old guys as before.
However, there is less trouble and the burden is thrown off, and the bureaus and commissions naturally can't ask for it. There are more people in charge, and the funds will rise, and Fu Wenyi, deputy director of the Organization Department and director of the Bureau of Veteran Cadres, will also have no opinions, and it can be said that everyone is happy.
Dong Liyun, who has been silent, doesn't think it's that simple. Because as a result, the deputy posts in charge of the work of veteran cadres in many units will have nothing to do. Looking at Tian Wenjian's smiling appearance, he suddenly realized that Secretary Tian Da was a drunkard and did not mean to drink, and he would definitely make a lot of articles around the issue of old cadres.
Just as he expected, Tian Wenjian thought far ahead and asked the veteran cadres to go to Hong Kong instead of other places, just to take this opportunity to make use of the veteran cadres and become an important force in promoting the reform of the political system.
(To be continued)
