Chapter 314: It's a Matter of Course

readx; Tian Wenjian left, and was taken away by the provincial party committee's investigation team. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Before leaving, he did an intriguing thing, not to say goodbye to the Standing Committee of the Linshui Municipal Party Committee, but to walk alone to the room where the old cadres were under house arrest, bowed deeply, and said, "I'm sorry to have affected everyone."

Why say you're sorry? Sorry what? No one can tell. But a person who set an example everywhere and was extremely honest as an official was taken away like this, and even some people who didn't agree with him so much before were embarrassed.

After the investigation was over, he couldn't say anything to the old cadres, so Mayor Gu Jingbin, who was temporarily left in Linshui, simply asked the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee to send the old men and old ladies back. It's just that his attitude toward the "precious wealth of the party and the people" is far less "caring" than that of Secretary Tian Da. After a morning of interrogation, people were panicked, and after lunchtime, they didn't even care about a meal.

The comprehensive audit work is still continuing, but Secretary Tian Da's future is uncertain.

In fact, it is not as serious as they imagined, Tian Wenjian was neither "shuanggui" nor removed from his post for investigation, but at the request of Secretary Wang of the Provincial Party Committee, he went to the Provincial Party Committee to conduct a feasible surname demonstration for the pilot project of social security integration for civil servants.

After all, for the current provincial party committee and provincial political axe, eliminating the adverse impact is the first priority. As for whether to deal with it or not, and how to deal with it, that is a matter for later.

There was nothing to say all the way, and it was already six o'clock in the evening when I arrived in the provincial capital. Accompanied by the personnel of the Provincial Party Committee's Supervision Office, Tian Wenjian had a simple dinner in the Provincial Party Committee's canteen, and then was taken by Deputy Secretary General Han of the Provincial Party Committee to the conference room on the third floor of the Provincial Party Committee's compound, where he promoted his long-planned reform plan to the nine members of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee at home, as well as the experts from the Provincial Party Committee's Research Office and the Provincial Academy of Social Sciences, who attended the meeting as observers.

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ The veteran cadres bureau and the work of veteran cadres are themselves the products of reform and opening up. There was no such institution in the first 20 years of the reform, and there was no country in the world except for China now. You should know better than me why this institution was established, and it can be said that it was a stopgap measure at that time. ā€

After ten years of catastrophe, the cadres in power were the first to bear the brunt of the impact, and after the end of the Cultural Revolution, they were "liberated" without dying, but they were already old. At the beginning of the reform, [***] proposed that the cadres should be younger, and veteran comrades such as Deng Xping and Chen Y took the lead in retreating to the second line and set up an advisory committee to resettle the retired veteran cadres.

Local political axe party committees at all levels also followed up, and a considerable number of founding fathers and veteran local cadres at all levels have been retired. They retired and gave up power, but their treatment remained unchanged, and some of them were even promoted, their salaries were raised, they were prepared for luxurious honors, they were less in charge, and sometimes they were only advisers and advisers, and they lived out their old age in peace.

I have to admit that the young man in front of him, who has a mixed reputation, is not without purpose. Because they want to implement the pilot project of social security integration, the thousands of veteran cadres in the water are undoubtedly the most difficult hurdle to overcome.

Secretary Wang and Governor Chen glanced at each other, then turned around, and Okita Wenjian nodded slightly, signaling him not to have any worries, just say anything.

Tian Wenjian, who was fighting against the odds, had any concerns, nodded heavily, and continued to talk eloquently: "After a few years, the retired leaders can't even do the consultants, so the advisory committee was abolished and the veteran cadres bureau was established to serve the retired elderly.

In the heart, it is understandable that special care was given to the founding fathers. After all, there are not many people, and the common people can afford it. In addition, the veteran cadres bureau itself is a temporary institution, and when the retired senior citizens retire in peace, they will be abolished like an advisory committee.

However, in fact, after 20 years, the veteran cadre bureaus have not only not been abolished, but have gradually taken shape from the central to the local level, formed a system from top to bottom, and strengthened their functions. At the beginning, the service objects of the veteran cadres bureau were retired cadres at and above the county and department level, and with the passage of time, there were not many people left, so they were expanded to retired cadres at the deputy department level, and there were not many cadres at the deputy department level in the county and district political axes, so the retired cadres at and above the deputy section level were all included in its service scope.

Let's take a look at the specific responsibilities of the veteran cadres bureau, what kind of services do they do? As far as we are a small county-level city, we must organize physical examinations, visit and inspect, enjoy public transportation, secure funds, and arrange future affairs...... It can be said that it is meticulous. Serving the old cadres can set up a bureau, so should the old professors and teachers also set up a special bureau? And the average old worker, why is no one care? Isn't that an obvious privilege. ā€

Speaking of this, Tian Wenjian bent down, took out a stack of data that had been prepared long ago from his briefcase, and continued to say while distributing it to everyone: "Since ancient times, Chinese people have always suffered from injustice instead of poverty, and the sense of equality has been deeply rooted in the bone marrow. This can be seen from the poems such as 'Princes and generals, rather have a kind of', 'Chao is Tian Shelang, and Twilight is in the Tianzi Hall'.

The reason why I say these digressions is to let leaders and academic friends have an intuitive understanding of this data. The elderly over 60 years old in Linshui City now account for 18.79% of the total population, and only 2.35% of the elderly pension and medical problems have been solved............ Through family planning, we have succeeded in controlling population growth. However, the consequence is that this huge distortion will lead to various social problems, the population will age sharply, and the demographic dividend on which the rapid economic growth in the past depended will gradually disappear, which is a reality that we cannot avoid and cannot avoid.

Correspondingly, there is a huge gap in the social security account. The lack of welfare in education and medical care, as well as the high housing prices, are eroding people's coffin money little by little...... If we are indifferent and take effective measures at the right time, we will be artificially creating polarization and promoting social injustice in disguise! ā€

The data materials provided by Tian Wenjian, like his speech style, are easy to understand and clear at a glance. According to the current age structure, in another ten years, the elderly over 60 years old in Linshui City will reach 34.91% of the total population, while only 4.15% will enjoy publicly-funded medical care.

At the same time, 8.34% of the elderly who have been included in the social pension system cannot be guaranteed by the social security fund for their pension and medical care. Even if there is no inflation in ten years, the standard of pension payment and medical reimbursement will not meet expectations, and the gap with the public-funded pension and public-funded medical care will further widen with the increase in the elderly population.

Secretary Wang pondered for a moment, put down the data materials in his hand, and said solemnly while looking around at everyone: "Comrades, Secretary Xiao Tian is not alarmist, I read a report of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences the day before yesterday, which said that when developed countries enter the aging population, the per capita GDP has reached more than 10,000 US dollars, and according to the current development trend, China is likely to enter the aging society in advance when the per capita GDP is less than 1,000 US dollars."

The aging population structure and the lagging social security system have become a major hidden danger in the future development, in China, which is not yet economically and socially developed, who will feed so many elderly people? This means that we will face a situation where we will grow old before we get rich! It can be seen that the problem of pension is a strategic problem that needs to be solved urgently.

I would like to add that in fact, in less than ten years, some elderly people in rural areas are already facing the dilemma of having nothing to support them. The evening scene is bleak, I am afraid that the greatest sorrow in life is nothing more than this! ā€

Governor Chen nodded heavily, motioned for Tian Wenjian to sit down, and said thoughtfully: "Yes, people used to say that raising children to prevent old age, so the original pension method in my country has always been based on family pension. However, the '421' family structure created by the one-child policy is destined to be unsustainable.

After the post-80s generation gets married, they are faced with two people having to support four elderly people, or even more, and the pressure is self-evident, and the difficulty of providing for the elderly can also be seen. It can be expected that it is no longer realistic to rely on children to provide for the elderly in the future, even if the children want to fulfill their filial piety, they are powerless. ā€

Just talking about not practicing fake tricks, knowing that there are huge hidden dangers, and knowing that unfair social security will cause social contradictions, but turning a deaf ear to all this.

Secretary Tian Da didn't think that the two party and government leaders expressed this attitude, which meant that they had given themselves a pass, so he couldn't help but stand up, and then said: "Leaders, friends from the academic circles, we talk every day about what great banner we hold high and what we deepen what reforms. But in fact, the banner is being held high, but the reform is stagnant.

As long as we save a little, it is entirely possible to establish a relatively perfect social old-age security system, and strive to enable the common people to have something to teach, earn from their labor, receive medical treatment when they are sick, provide for the elderly, and live in a house.

At the same time, it can also show that the fruits of reform are shared by the whole people, so why not? If we really believe in the purpose of serving the people, then we should strive to shoulder our responsibilities and obligations! ā€

Secretary Tianda's thinking, Deputy Secretary Yang reported to the provincial party committee during the investigation in Linshui. In fact, the vast majority of provincial party leaders, including Secretary Wang, also believe that this is the only way to eliminate the negative influence now.

However, Tian Wenjian's approach is very problematic, and it can even be said that he is coercing the provincial party committee and provincial government. Thinking of this, Secretary Wang was angry, couldn't help glaring at him, and said in a fierce voice: "In order to achieve the goal, unscrupulous means, is it also the responsibility and obligation of a [***] member?" ā€

There are many things that can only be understood, not spoken. Qiao Wei's reassuring pill made Secretary Tian Da fearless. After all, for him now, the central government's failure to express his stance is to express his attitude, and not supporting it is equivalent to supporting, even if the provincial party committee and provincial government axe look at him a hundred times unpleasantly, he can only raise it high and put it down gently.

What's more, everything is still speculation, and there is no real evidence, what else can you really do to me?

If you want to add to the crime, there is no excuse, that is to deal with people who have no right to speak and no background. Secretary Tian Da is not what it used to be, he has both the backstage and the right to speak, so there is really nothing to be afraid of.

Looking at his pretended dazed look, Governor Chen's intestines were about to be broken, and he couldn't help but say: "Comrade Tian Wenjian, agreeing that you are in Linshui to carry out a pilot project of social security merger, which is equivalent to writing you an indefinite, unlimited blank check, do you think we are really that stupid?" ā€

What is ironic is that Secretary Tian actually said with a sneer: "Governor Chen, your analogy is not appropriate, it should be a pass that can visit all the attractions, rather than an indefinite, unlimited blank check." ā€

Allowing him to carry out the pilot reform of social security and integration is equivalent to giving the green light to bus reform, education reform, medical reform, and even civil servant salary reform at the same time. Once his wish is fulfilled, it will lead to the fact that the civil servants in Linshui and the civil servants of other counties and districts will not be able to carry out normal transfers and exchanges as they are now due to salary and treatment reasons.

This means that Tian Wenjian will be allowed to once again carry out the county political reform that failed in Xichuan Province four years ago, including Yu Jrong, professor at the Institute of Rural Development of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences and director of the Center for Social Problems, Wang Zyang, director of the Political Science Teaching and Research Department of the Central Institute of Socialism and special researcher of the China Society for Economic Reform, and Professor Xu Yitong, director of the scientific research department of the National Academy of Administration.

At the very least, the county-level party and government chiefs have achieved the goal of 'changing their streams and returning to their localities' and not being promoted or transferred during their term of office, so as to give play to the leading role of local elites in local politics.

Those present are not the leaders of the provincial party committee and the provincial political axe, or the experts and scholars of the Provincial Party Committee's Political Research Office and the Provincial Academy of Social Sciences. After all, the pilot project left a deep impression on the people, and after only two months of operation, it was urgently stopped by the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress.

In fact, the three professors in the system who failed in the pilot were members of the think tank of Secretary Tian Da, a small county official. It is precisely because of their lessons learned that Tian Wenjian will not mention the sensitive word "election", but chooses the relatively less sensitive and urgent problem of social security injustice as the entry point of "county government reform".

The Hong Kong media, which do not listen to the greetings, are still making endless "in-depth" reports. There is no clear understanding of the reason, and there is no clear understanding of the matter, and the central government has to express its position, and there is even a danger of spreading to other fields.

It can be seen from this that the Linhai Provincial Party Committee, which has been forced into a corner, has no way to retreat. However, such an unclear release will affect the prestige of the provincial party committee and the provincial political axe, so this so-called "seminar" was held.

As Tian Wenjian expected, the reform environment he "painstakingly managed" could not be the reason for the provincial party committee and the provincial government to allow him to carry out the pilot reform of social security integration. However, the problem of having no support for the elderly brought about by the aging of the population should arouse the great attention of the provincial party committee and the provincial government.

As for whether to try it or not, how to try it? It also needs to be decided by the Party Central Committee and the State Council. To put it bluntly, the contradiction is handed in, and the person was sent by you, so the risk brought by the pilot should be borne by you. Including a series of adverse effects caused by the veteran cadres of Linshui City this time, they have nothing to do with the Linhai Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Political Axe.

The meeting lasted until 11 p.m. and did not conclude until a preliminary draft was formed and submitted to the State Council. It took time to reply, and Secretary Wang, who was so anxious, didn't go back to rest immediately, but called Secretary Tian to his office, reversed his cold attitude before, and asked with a smile: "Professor Tian, what story are you going to tell me today?" ā€

Tian Wenjian was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, it turned out that the 'story of the toilet' when they met for the first time left a deep impression on him, and he hurriedly laughed and said: "The story of spring." ā€

Secretary Wang was happy, and while motioning for him to sit down, he shook his head and scolded with a smile: "I thought that you kid was only unscrupulous, but I didn't expect to be so shameless." ā€

"It is said that the official is the best actor, if you want face, then this official can't be nagging."

"A dog can't spit ivory out of his mouth, but then again, it's not easy to tell the truth."

Secretary Wang sighed lightly, then his face turned straight, and he said very seriously: "But you have indeed gone too far in this matter, if it weren't for the fact that you don't have any selfish thoughts, even if you refute Qiao Wei and Anping's face because of this, I have to let your kid walk around without eating." ā€

Secretary Tian, who thought he was very thick-skinned, was so angry by Secretary Wang's words that his cheeks were hot, and he was embarrassed to the extreme, with an extremely embarrassed expression.

Just when Tian Wenjian was speechless, Secretary Wang, who turned his face faster than turning a book, actually patted the armrest of the sofa and continued: "But this can't be completely blamed on you, in fact, even if you greet us in advance, given that the resistance is too great, the risk is too high, and it may even trigger a chain reaction, the provincial party committee and the provincial political axe will not allow you to carry out social security integration pilot in Linshui." ā€

This is the crux of the problem, Tian Wenjian nodded slightly, and said helplessly: "Secretary Wang, I think if Deputy Secretary Qiao sits in your position, he will not allow me to do this pilot." ā€

The ass decides the head, Qiao Wei supports it now because he is not in his position and does not seek his own politics, once he becomes a feudal official, then he has to worry about the impact of all aspects. After all, as the secretary of the provincial party committee in charge, stability under his rule is the first priority.

"It's rare that you kid can still say a fair word."

Secretary Wang nodded with satisfaction, took off his glasses, pinched the bridge of his sore nose, and continued in a serious tone: "If nothing else, the State Council will reply tomorrow morning." It may be a victory for you, but it seems to me to be just the beginning. How difficult this road is, I hope you can be mentally prepared. ā€

Yu J Rong, Xu Ytong, and Wang Zyang The lessons of the three old-timers were there, how could Tian Wenjian not understand this truth, he nodded his head heavily, and said very seriously: "Please Secretary Wang, I have made all the preparations." ā€

"I thought you would say that no matter whether there is a minefield or an abyss in front of you, you will move forward, without hesitation, do your best, and die for yourself."

I didn't expect Secretary Wang to be so humorous, Tian Wenjian smiled and said embarrassedly: "I really learned this sentence, but it was six years ago, when I was a big soldier, I told Deputy Political Commissar Wang of the Air Force, who was the political commissar of the Air Force D Division at the time. ā€

Secretary Wang pondered for a moment, then suddenly raised his head, stared at his eyes, and asked with a smile: "Then have you seen him?" ā€

Tian Wenjian realized that this "he" was not the other "him", and immediately showed an expression of great reverence, and said sincerely: "I met at the welcome ceremony at Dulles International Airport when I was studying abroad, but I never had the honor to talk to his old man. ā€

Secretary Wang nodded slightly, and said meaningfully: "You are also born at the wrong time, but there is nothing to regret, when I have time, I will take you to meet him." ā€
