Chapter 450: Serving in the Propaganda Department

Large and small stones crashed into the house from the back wall of the house, half of the room was buried in stones, and a young woman was pressed to the ground by a wooden plank, and the wooden planks were covered with stones, and the woman did not speak, and the tears on her face were sticking to the dust, and there was a look of despair in her eyes. If you look closely, there is a white head under her, judging from the long hair, it should be an old woman.

Wuyang didn't say a word, and rushed up to move stones. He Maoyou and Cui Deping also joined in, the two of them were lifted when they met a big one, and Wuyang had been moving by himself.

There are a lot of stones, move the lower ones, and the upper ones continue to roll down, and after moving for half an hour, Cui Deping is already tired. "Mayor, this is not the way to go, we have to contact the rescuers." I took out my mobile phone and dialed it, but there was no signal.

Wuyang said: "Deping, you go and ask the little girl the name of the place here, and then drive to move the rescuers, Maoyou and I will continue to move here." Sister-in-law, you must hold on, it will be fine soon. ”

After Cui Deping left, Wuyang and He Maoyou continued to move stones. After all, the stones are limited, and when the rescuers came, the sister-in-law and the aunt were rescued. The eldest mother was basically not injured because of the protection of her daughter-in-law, and the daughter-in-law was probably crushed and couldn't move after she came out.

The medical staff was treating the sister-in-law, and Wuyang asked, "Auntie, is there anyone inside?" ”

"No, the old man and his son went out in the morning. My daughter-in-law was pressed to save me, so you must save her. ”

"Auntie, we will definitely do our best."

After examining my sister-in-law, the medical staff said, "There may be internal injuries and must be sent to the hospital for examination." Your hands are bleeding and must be bandaged. ”

Only then did Wu Yang notice his hand. A lot of skin was rubbed off by stones. Blood grooves. Pieces of red meat, again covered with dust. Think about it, I haven't practiced stone locks and barbells in the past few years, and my hands are a lot more delicate.

After the medical staff debrided, they were wrapped in gauze, and Wuyang's thumb was still outside. He Maoyou's even his thumb is wrapped in it.

Gathering with Commander Li and Liu Canhui, Commander Li said, "Mayor, tonight the troops are ready to continue to search and rescue the affected people, what other instructions do you have?" ”

"Good. Commander Li, Mayor Liu, you take a break tonight, I will be in charge of command at night, and you will organize the distribution of disaster relief materials tomorrow. Mayor Liu, is the disaster big this time? ”

"The collapsed houses and the dead livestock have not yet been counted, and more than 140 people died. More than 2,200 people were injured, and some of the wounded did not know if they could survive. Whether some remote places have fallen down and buried people, we have to continue to search. Mayor, the leaders of the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee have arrived in Chuncheng, and they couldn't get through just now, and they didn't find you, so Shi Xiangming called me. ”

"Do you know what?"

"It's about appointing you to a new position."

Wuyang said: "Now that the province has received our report, I will be fine if I go a few days later." ”

Liu Canhui said: "It's not an important position, deputy director of the Propaganda Department, it doesn't necessarily mean that the TV station won't broadcast the program in a few days, and you can't do without it here." ”

"Okay, I'll settle all the affected people here and then go over, the Propaganda Department is a good place to study, I have to travel lightly, if I don't do a good job here, I can't study with peace of mind, right?"

Commander Li said: "Mayor, propaganda work has always been an important task of the party, and it has always been highly valued, so we should not take it lightly. ”

"I won't take it lightly, my attitude towards work, the commander should still understand. When I talk about learning, I mainly don't have to touch on it at all, and I have to study. ”

In fact, when Wuyang went to the capital last time, he knew that there would be such a result now, and he did not arrange to go to the party school to study specially, which was already good, and propaganda work was an important mouthpiece of the party after all. The intention of the superiors may be to strengthen their own learning and make themselves more comprehensive, not to punish themselves.

Commander Li said: "Mayor, you and your driver have injured their hands, I will send a driver from the army to drive for you." Come a few more, and it's easy to deal with if something happens. ”

"Okay, thank you. Well, it looks like we're going to have to nibble on fast food noodles, so let's go back to the county seat and eat it. ”

Commander Li said: "Let's nibble on fast food noodles together and go, I just arranged for the soldiers to meet in person." ”

A few people took the mineral water and nibbled on the fast food noodles, or Cui Deping gritted his teeth and helped Wuyang and He Maoyou unscrew the cap of the mineral water bottle. His hand was also injured, but only slightly.

The comrades of the army brought some food from the rice bowl and asked them to eat it, and Commander Li said, "You can keep it for supper." Tonight, you will obey Mayor Li's command, and the most important thing is to ensure your safety, and you must not go wrong. ”

The non-commissioned officer who led the team immediately replied: "Yes." ”

Taking advantage of the fact that the sky was not dark, the non-commissioned officer spread out a military map of 1/2500, and there were dozens of maps in the entire earthquake area. After the vehicle was refueled, it set off.

After receiving a call from Secretary Teng, it was 10 o'clock in the evening, and Secretary Teng asked him to rush to the county seat at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning.

One night passed in the middle of the stop-and-go, and when I got in the car and walked, the afternoon sun used the true qi to heal the wounds, and when I stopped, I inspected the disaster situation, comforted the victims, and did not see the situation of being buried and not being rescued. In the second half of the night, I saw that many people had built simple sheds with thatch, and used clothes as quilts, thinking that the rainy season was coming, and the production and life of the masses was a big problem.

When I arrived at the county seat, a few people had breakfast in the roadside shop, Wuyang took advantage of everyone's inattention, ripped off the gauze on the hands, the old leather and the new leather on the hands were staggered, fortunately, it was the hand board and fingers, if it was the back of the hand, it was ugly, and it was inevitable to wear gloves for a while.

When they met Secretary Teng, a large group of them had breakfast at the guest house of the county party committee, and the deputy minister who came to the Central Organization Department introduced the acquaintance of the entourage, and took out the post order to read. The appointments this time are: Deputy Minister of the Propaganda Department, member of the Party Leadership Group of the Propaganda Department, and Director of the Organization Department. The first deputy minister is the deputy secretary of the party group. Wuyang should be equivalent to the second vice minister.

Secretary Teng said: "Xiao Li." Now your position in the Southwestern Company has been relieved. The mayor has also been relieved of his position, but the task of presiding over the work of the municipal party committee cannot be exempted, and I will send you eight words: Concentrate on disaster relief, and the sky will fall. ”

"Secretary, when will I report to the Propaganda Department?"

"You have now reported, this is Luo Youcun, director of the Radio and Television Bureau of the Propaganda Department, and the president of the provincial newspaper, from today. They will be under your command, and you must do a good job in news reporting, and in particular, you must widely publicize the deep affection and kindness of the central authorities and the people of the whole country for the people in the disaster-stricken areas. Your own job is to be the front-line commander of the provincial party committee's earthquake relief, directing and coordinating the earthquake relief work. ”

"Good. Resolutely complete the task. ”

"Your actions against the earthquake were swift and effective. The results are very good, and the provincial party committee is satisfied with your fruitful work. In the afternoon, the leaders will come to visit the people affected by the disaster on behalf of the Central Committee, and it will be enough for me and the minister to accompany them to receive them, and you and Comrade Canhui will continue to do your work. Comrade Canhui said that you didn't rest last night, and your hand was injured, so you should pay attention to your body and don't get tired. ”

"Thank you for your concern, I'll take care of it."

Liu Canhui said: "Minister, secretary, the city's disaster relief materials and personnel have arrived, and Comrade Wuyang and I have to go." ”

Secretary Teng said: "You guys are busy, if you have any difficulties, tell me, I will be in the disaster area during this time." ”

After leaving Secretary Teng and them, Wuyang and Liu Canhui convened a group of people from the municipal party committee to discuss, in order to save time, while distributing disaster relief materials, it is necessary to count the disaster situation and the number of houses that need to be built, so as not to toss back and forth, delay time, and waste manpower and material resources.

Wuyang said: "When counting the people affected by the disaster, don't stick the scale so deadly. The people in the disaster area are living in poverty, and we can take this opportunity to improve for everyone, which is also our best. In addition, it is necessary to make good arrangements for the work of self-help through production in the disaster-stricken areas; after the masses have received materials and relief funds, they must concentrate their efforts on production and building houses, and we will send professional teams to carry out the work in a unified manner. ”

Liu Canhui said: "Mayor, we don't have much money right now, and we may not be able to afford to build houses for the victims. ”

Wuyang said: "I don't think about building a house, don't use government funds, otherwise other government work will have to stop." We will discuss a building area today, and then send people back to the city, mobilize several companies that participated in the urban renovation last time, and bring their own funds to build first, and when the disaster relief funds come, we will definitely not have a penny from them. ”

Liu Canhui said: "Just ask Mayor Tengyan to go back, we will ask the villagers for their opinions, and then call you to tell you." Before the drawings come out, steel and cement can be delivered to the disaster area. Now the disaster relief funds are not in place, and they are all on credit first. Mayor Li has already spoken, and there will be no penny less, so let them rest assured. ”

Since that day, the relief work has been carried out intensively. The magnitude of the earthquake here is low, the disaster is not large, and the attention is not high, but the disaster relief funds allocated by the relevant ministries and commissions, donations from people and enterprises across the country, and charitable foundations are enough for the victims to build new homes.

In the use of disaster relief funds, a lot should be spent, and what can be saved should be saved. For example, when building a house, the use of steel, cement, bricks, river sand and pebbles and other building materials and labor wages were carefully verified, and the profit of the builder was pressed to less than 5%, which is basically about 3%. Don't look at this 1% is not much, a villager's two-story building of 200 square meters is only about 120,000, but the number of houses built is a large amount, and the money saved can be built a lot of houses.

Another major expense, that is, subsidies for the city's earthquake relief personnel, is not included in the disaster relief funds, not to mention food and entertainment expenses. The remaining funds are to buy furniture, farm tools and clothing for the victims, and the other is to help the villagers whose houses have not collapsed but are relatively dilapidated to build new houses, so that they will not suffer again in case of an earthquake, especially an earthquake with a high magnitude.

In early July, the villagers all moved into new houses, leaving only some personnel and machinery to build roads, build bridges, build fences, and remove garbage for the villagers.

After a few months of busyness, Wuyang has lost more than 30 pounds, and his face is almost the same as Aizhong and Aihua at home, and he has become wheat-colored. For several years, his weight has been maintained at about 160 pounds, and he has always thought that it was because of martial arts. The body is full of tendon meat. Won't be skinny. I didn't expect to lose weight like this. The main thing is that there is nothing delicious, in addition to rice, every meal is some special dishes, not that there is no money, nor that you can't buy it, you don't have time to get it, and it's not good for one person, or a few people to eat and drink. This is still a frequent home tooth sacrifice. In the later stage, there are not so many things, so I often sneak back and stay for two nights, and my uncle and aunt can work hard to make good food, otherwise they may be thinner.

When I arrived at the Propaganda Department, I first went to report to the minister, whose surname was Ye, called Ye Peng, and he was in his 50s. A little blessed, white and quiet. Wears a pair of half-rimmed glasses and speaks in a sven manner. Chatting, the two turned out to be alumni of the university and the Central Party School, but Minister Ye graduated earlier than Wuyang.

"Comrade Wuyang, the office has been prepared for you, but there is no way to solve the problem of where you live. The Propaganda Department does not have such a thing as housing allocation, nor can it be the same as in the county or city, where you can live in guest houses for a long time, so you have to figure out how to do it yourself. ”

"Okay, minister, when will the work be arranged?"

"There is nothing to arrange, there are not many departments in our ministry, but there are more ministers, and now with you, you are already a principal and five deputies, plus an assistant minister, and you will be in charge of the work of the theoretical department, the ideological department, and the party committee of the organ. It's hard to gather all the people now, so if you have a ministerial meeting on Monday and all the ministers and heads of departments will attend, you can arrange your accommodation and come back to work. ”

"Minister, how did this secretary and the driver arrange?"

Minister Ye smiled, "Minister Li, the ministry does not arrange a full-time secretary for the deputy minister, you need documents and materials, you can find which place in any aspect, if you want to use articles, you usually write them yourself." After writing, you can send it to the printing room to print or record the electronic document. However, there are very few articles to write such as speeches, and if you have any experience and discussion in theoretical study and research, you have to write it yourself and then contact the journal for publication. ”

Wuyang smiled, "I still have to strengthen my studies." ”

Minister Ye said: "We must all step up our study and constantly improve our theoretical level. Comrade Wuyang, there are vehicles in the ministry, but they must be arranged by the office, and they must be applied for when they need to use the car, and they must apply in advance to participate in important activities, so as not to make a mistake if they don't have a car. ”

"I see. Minister, did my task of presiding over the work of the municipal party committee in Lanjiang City end on its own? ”

"I can't be the master of this, your decision to preside over the work of the Lanjiang Municipal Party Committee is decided by the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, at least with the approval of Secretary Teng. I'll make a phone call now and report to Secretary Teng. ”

Ye Peng got up to call, said a few words, and hung up. "Comrade Wuyang, let's go to Secretary Teng's office, he is waiting for us."

entered Secretary Teng's office, and Minister Zhang of the Organization Department was also present. "Come on, come on, Lao Ye, Xiao Li, please take a seat. Xiao Li, why are you so thin? ”

Wuyang smiled, "I'll lose weight in the summer." ”

"I remember that you used to be very white, why are you so dark?"

"I've been living in the highlands for a long time."

Secretary Teng smiled: "Good answer." I have a copy of the material here, and I won't read it if it was written by anyone. Comrade Li Wuyang, from March 10th to July 8th, worked for 112 days for 117 days, worked overtime for 28 days (including 5?1 holidays), received 3,260 yuan in overtime pay and 1,400 yuan in food subsidies, all of which were given to primary schools in the disaster area. During the Spring Festival, more than 180,000 yuan of red envelopes were collected, all of which were handed over to the Children's Welfare Institute (with receipts as evidence). Xiao Li, are these true or fake? ”

"Secretary, can you let me explain?"

"Yes."

"There is no way to work overtime, the food subsidy is completely unnecessary, every day is to eat a big canteen or fast food noodles, there is no money, overtime pay, the children in the disaster area need it more." As for the red envelopes received during the Spring Festival, they were all uncollectible, although the red envelopes were handed over, but I still received some wine and local products. ”

Minister Zhang asked: "Comrade Wuyang also likes things in the cup?" ”

Wuyang smiled, "I still like it a little." ”

Minister Ye said: "Now it is popular to say: leaders don't drink, and there are no basic masses at all; Discipline inspection cadres do not drink alcohol, and there is no corruption information at all; Middle-level cadres don't drink alcohol, and there is no chance of promotion at all; Grassroots cadres don't drink alcohol, and the leaders don't have any impression at all. It can be seen that this drinking is still very important. ”

Secretary Teng said with a smile: "Xiao Li, have you heard it, this is the theoretical level of the comrades in the propaganda mouth, you have something to learn." ”

"Yes. Ladies and gentlemen, I still have a few bottles of wine in the car, would you like to invite a few to drink? ”

Minister Ye said: "Comrade Wuyang, are you really going to seize the opportunity, even the secretary dares to ask for it?" ”

Secretary Teng said: "No wonder he hasn't drunk for several months, and today he is finally free." Not at noon, at night. Don't go back to Lanjiang tonight, I'll send you back tomorrow with Minister Zhang. ”

"Secretary, I've left quietly, don't go back, I won't be able to drink for a few more days."

"Lao Zhang, please let him take a look at Wen Jiàn."

Wuyang took a look, and it was his appointment as a member, standing committee member, and secretary of the Lanjiang Municipal Party Committee, and a member of the first political committee of the military sub-district; The Municipal People's Congress was added as the chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress.

Wuyang said: "Secretary, do I continue to retain my position in the Propaganda Department?" ”

Secretary Teng said: "I didn't announce that I was dismissed, of course I continued to keep it." ”

Minister Ye said with a smile: "I finally looked forward to a little fresh blood, and soon the bamboo basket was empty." ”

Secretary Teng said: "It's not a void, Comrade Wuyang is still a member of the Propaganda Department, and his post in Lanjiang is just to give you a test field in terms of integrating theory with practice." ”

Minister Ye said: "Comrade Wuyang, I must adjust the scope of your responsibility, and I will adjust the party committee of the organ to other deputy ministers, and in the future, the two departments you are in charge of, if there is anything to do, I will go to Lanjiang to ask you for instructions and report, and you will come to the ministry every month to attend the ministry meeting and familiarize yourself with the work of the department." ”

"Okay. I thought that the provincial party committee would report more often, and I happened to ask the minister for instructions. ”

Secretary Teng said: "Comrade Wuyang, when you go back to Lanjiang this time, the burden on your shoulders is heavier. Although considerable progress has been made in economic work, there is still a big gap between it and the economically developed areas, and in particular, the people's living standards need to be improved urgently. The problems exposed by this earthquake are quite serious, your development has focused on education, focusing on infrastructure, but people's living standards are very different. In developed places, the per capita net income exceeds 1,000 US dollars, but in some places in Lanjiang, it is definitely less than 300 US dollars, which can be seen from the construction of houses. ”

Wuyang said: "Yes, when the peasants have money, they must build houses first. ”

"In the places where there are more collapsed houses this time, that is, poor places, there are few cash crops planted in the fields and mountains, which reflects the lack of hard work of grassroots cadres and the lack of solid work of cadres in your city. This time, it is necessary to take advantage of the opportunity of readjusting the contingent of cadres to promote a group of cadres who are good-looking, and it is necessary to appoint people on the basis of merit and ability, and not to engage in cronyism. ”

Minister Zhang said: "This time, the province will not send any of the five deputy department-level cadres in the city to the indicators of the five deputy department-level cadres, and they will all be given to you." ”

Wu Yang smiled: "Minister, how can it be 5 deputy department levels?" (To be continued......)
