Chapter 81: The Southern Tour
After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the voices of denying reform and opening up in China mainly came from the people, mainly because new problems and new contradictions appeared in the reform, and more problems related to the people's livelihood and the adjustment of the pattern of interests. Housing reform, medical reform, education reform, coupled with the reform of state-owned enterprises, have caused a large number of laid-off workers, who are currently living in difficulty, and these problems converge together.
Leng Yunhong, who was still studying at the Party School of the Provincial Party Committee, faced with the new social contradictions and problems that arose at that time, and under the cold "instigation," he wrote four articles in a row to vigorously promote reform. The opening chapter is "To be the "leader" of reform and opening up", and the year is proposed to be the year of reform". The second article, "Reform and Opening Up Must Have New Ideas," pointed out that the new idea of reform in the 90s was to develop a market economy. The third article, "Stronger Awareness of Expanding Opening Up," pointed out that in reform and opening up, we must dare to do things that no one had done before. The fourth article, "Reform and Opening Up Needs a Large Number of Cadres with Both Ability and Political Integrity," stresses that reform and opening up need a large number of brave generals who have the courage to think, explore, and innovate.
Leng Yunfei took advantage of his previous fame, and as soon as these four articles were listed in the "Sichuan Daily", they immediately attracted everyone's attention, and quickly aroused strong repercussions inside and outside the party, at home and abroad. Even the staff of the offices of many provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions in Chengdu across the country have received phone calls from local leaders, asking them to collect "all the articles" so that they can study and refer to them. Some also sent special personnel to Chengdu to find out, investigate the "surface background", and hoped to communicate with Leng Yunping.
Of course, some people, and even many mainstream newspapers, have begun to openly criticize Leng Yunyi, believing that he is sensationalizing and spreading reactionary remarks at this time of change. Even Wang Peiyuan and Song Zuyun were a little puzzled, didn't Leng Yunfei oppose it at the beginning, why did he strongly agree with it now? Why can't he just take it when he sees it?
The fierce confrontation of ideological streams within the Party has aroused great anxiety among the broad masses of the people: Is it time to return to the years of class struggle? And the province's arrangement for Leng Yunhong is even more uncertain, I don't know which way of thinking the central government will eventually prevail, I am afraid that the wind direction will be wrong, and I can only put him in the party school for the time being. As a result, other people's party school study is only three months at most, and this period of party school study class took more than half a year.
Although it is far away from Xichang, it is close to the cold cold. Most of the rest time came to Wang Peiyuan's house and spent it with them, either discussing practical and political matters with Wang Peiyuan, or taking him around with Leng Binghan, or taking him around with Leng Binghan, which can be regarded as making up for his father's family affection and responsibility.
May 17th. The Chinese lunar calendar is the thirteenth day of the lunar month of the Year of the Goat.
Beijing, from the not too spacious alley of Jingshan back street, a convoy of police cars galloped out, passed **, galloped past the Beijing Hotel, galloped through Wangfujing, and in the attention of the police, the green light all the way into Beijing Station.
Beijing Railway Station. The first stop in China. It is an important hub connecting China's provincial capitals. It is also the busiest railway station in Layue. On the platform on the east side, it was a little deserted, a green car had stopped on the track, the police car opened the road, and two minibuses and several small cars slowly approached and stopped in turn.
The head of the Central Committee, together with his wife, children and daughters-in-law, grandsons, granddaughters, and more than 10 accompanying staff, stepped into the special train.
The ninety-year-old Chang, wearing a thick coat and a gray scarf, held hands with the people who saw him off, and stepped into the special train with the support of his children. The train slid silently off the platform. This is a special train with no scheduled trains, and no one knows where it is going except for the Central Office and the Minister of Railways.
The train is actually a mobile presidential suite. Bedrooms, toilets, reception rooms, conference rooms, activity rooms, restaurant guard rooms, entourage rooms, luggage compartments are all available, and the Ministry of Railways is collectively referred to as the green car. The appearance of this special train is the same as that of ordinary passenger trains, except that there is no factory license plate and factory date on the green car, and there is no stop plate for the start and end stations. At that time, it was below 120 kilometers, and the fuel was minus 30 diesel, which is generally used by Air Force fighters, and the advantage was minus 30 netbsp; This is the Changnan Tour of great significance in Chinese history, which ended the turbulent and fierce collision within the party and opened a new chapter in reform and opening up. However, unlike the southern tour routes of Wuhan, Shenzhen, Zhuhai, the Pearl River Delta, Guangzhou, and Shanghai in history, due to the appearance of cold and cold, there has been a little change, and the core location of the ideological confrontation has become Chengdu, so D Gong put the station of the southern tour in Chengdu, Sichuan. History has been deflected, and its arrival is like a butterfly effect, changing the course of the exhibition in China and even the world.
Chang was originally from Sichuan, and it was understandable that he returned to Sichuan first on this southern tour. However, after the news was transmitted back to Chengdu, it still caused a fierce shock, and everyone was happy that Changneng came to Chengdu to inspect, which showed that Chengdu had attracted the attention of the central government. At the same time, I was a little scared, not knowing what this meant, whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.
However, in any case, several sets of provincial and municipal team members began to make final preparations, and all sides took active action, and there were obviously many armed police soldiers standing guard on the streets, and a tense and excited atmosphere enveloped the entire Chengdu city.
On the 19th of the month, this day will forever be written into the history of Chengdu.
The long special train arrived in Chengdu at 10:20 a.m. on the same day, and is expected to stay in Chengdu for two days to inspect the economic construction of Chengdu on the spot, and then go back to Guang'an's hometown to see, and then go to Chongqing for inspection, and then go down the river to Wuhan, returning to the original trajectory of history.
After the arrival of the special train, all members of the leading groups of the Sichuan Provincial Party Committee and the Chengdu Municipal Party Committee went to the platform to greet the great leader. Then, accompanied by them and their entourage at all levels of the central government, the chief took a bulletproof car and carefully visited the various landscapes of Chengdu and its construction. He also visited Feiyuan International Building and Chengdu Feiyuan International Hotel, the most conspicuous landmark buildings in Chengdu.
In the luxurious conference room on the top floor of Feiyuan International Hotel, the chief will listen to the report of the provincial and municipal team members here, and change the habit of staying in Jinjiang Hotel in Chengdu and stay in Chengdu Feiyuan International Hotel. Of course, strict preparations and abstinence work have been carried out here to ensure the safety and comfort of a long stay.
Standing on the top of the 40-storey building overlooking the landscape of the whole city through the blue glass window, he said with great interest: "Chengdu is well built here, such buildings and luxury hotels are rare even in Dacheng." ”
"Yes, it seems that Feiyuan Company is very optimistic about the exhibition of Chengdu." The secretary replied, "But I heard that the Feiyuan Building and the International Hotel in Beijing, Shanghai and other places are also under construction. ”
"Well, being able to introduce an internationally renowned large company like Feiyuan to invest and promote the city exhibition is also an idea of our reform and opening up exhibition! I think Chengdu is doing a good job here! "The long seems to be very satisfied.
At the meeting, the chief listened to the work reports and ideas of Zhou Hao, secretary of the provincial party committee, and Wang Peiyuan, secretary of the municipal party committee, on the work in the province and the city, and highly praised the achievements of the provincial and municipal cadres in their local work.
Then, the chief suddenly asked, "These days, I often hear a name in my ears, and it can be said that my ears are going to sound calloused." This person is our Sichuan fellow Leng Yunping. This comrade is not simple, under the background of the time, it takes a lot of courage and courage to write such an article, is he here today? ”
The members of the teams at the provincial and municipal levels all glanced at each other, and no one thought that when the chief first came to Chengdu, he would meet Leng Yunyi, which really surprised and surprised them. However, seeing this scene, the chief seemed to appreciate him, so Zhou Hao, secretary of the provincial party committee, said: "Long, this Leng Yunfei is a rare good cadre in our province, I heard that Feiyuan Company was also introduced by Secretary Wang Peiyuan, who was the mayor of Xichang City at the time, and he could." The province attaches great importance to him, and now he is studying in the party school of the provincial party committee, if the chief wants to meet him, I will arrange for him to come over immediately. ”
Anyone can carry a sedan chair, although Wang Peiyuan disdains Zhou Hao's remarks, it is impossible for him to jump out and sing the opposite tone at this time, especially when it comes to Leng Yunhong's future.
The chief seemed to be very interested in Leng Yunping, and said to Zhou Hao: "Then invite him to visit, I'm very interested in him!" ”
In fact, before coming to Chengdu, the mayor has carefully studied this local mayor who has the courage to write articles that do not conform to the mainstream ideology, Xichang's work has been carried out vividly, all large-scale projects and economic construction have his shadow, not only the long-term vision of urban economic construction, but also the rural economic reform has also done quite well, the mind is flexible, the work is organized, the ideas are bold and novel, the spirit of seeking truth from facts, the economic construction is eclectic, and the danger is prepared, but also understand the truth that the crisis is the opportunity in the crisis, The most important thing is to be able to put the idea into practice and achieve great success, which is the most appreciated thing about Leng Yunping.
Isn't the work in the new era necessary for people who have both ideas, momentum, and hard work? Therefore, the name Leng Yunyu left a deep impression in Chang's mind.
Of course, Zhou Hao immediately went to arrange it, and he couldn't help but be complacent about letting Leng Yunhong go to the party school to learn this method of attacking, retreating, and defending.
In less than thirty minutes, Leng Yunfei was secretly sent to Feiyuan International Hotel by the relevant personnel in the province, and he was confused all the way, until he saw Chang, who he had only seen on TV, and his heart was a little clear, but he was suddenly shocked by that huge excitement in his heart. I stammered a little when I spoke, and my hands and feet trembled slightly.
"Ah, you are Comrade Leng Yunping," the chief saw Leng Yunfei and said with a smile: "Don't be nervous, my old man is not a lion or tiger, let alone a reactionary, hehe." ”
"Chief, I'm so glad to meet you. It's hard to believe! Seeing Chang's kind expression, Leng Yunfei's uneasy mood calmed down a little.
"Tell me, how did you come up with the idea to write that manuscript? I'm really curious!
Leng Yunpin didn't know how many times he had answered this question these days, Leng Yunphong took a deep breath, adjusted his mood, and said: "Speaking of theoretical knowledge, it is far-sighted, far from what we can compare. ”
"Hehe, your comrade is still modest, it's okay, what do you think of and say anything, today it's just a discussion, don't be afraid that you will say it wrong, the truth is the more you argue, the clearer it is, we GCD have always been truth-seeking." The long and kind expression made Leng Yunhong even more relieved of some of his concerns.
Leng Yunhong then reported the various ideas and ideas that he and Leng Binghan discussed to the leaders present one by one.
Looking at the capable Leng Yunpan, listening to his clear and brief report, I really had a good impression of him in my heart, made an exception and interrupted his report twice in the middle of the way, had some exchanges with him, and carefully inquired about some specific construction situations and ideas in Xichang City.
Although Leng Yunqing studied in the Party School of the Provincial Party Committee, he was very clear and understanding of the situation in Xichang City, and his answers to the chief's questions were concise and reasonable, and all kinds of data were also at his fingertips, which made the chief quite satisfied.
Finally, the chief asked: "You are a cadre from the basics, you should know the voices and ideas of the masses best, and at the same time, you have also expressed your own remarks in the newspapers, so you should have a lot of right to speak, then let me ask you, how do you view the current reform and opening up, and how can we avoid repeating the mistakes of Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union?" ”
This is a big question, involving all aspects of issues and interests, and it is very difficult to answer. Moreover, such a national policy should not be arbitrarily commented on by a small department-level cadre like Leng Yunhong.
Therefore, everyone in the conference room looked straight at Leng Yunping, wanting to see what kind of answer he would answer. Wang Peiyuan's heart also beat fast.
Leng Yunping, who had been mentally prepared for a long time, was very calm about this, smiled and said: "Actually, I have already mentioned in the article that reform and opening up must be carried out, and we must slow down, vigorously carry it out, and unswervingly carry it out." Planning and the market are both economic means, not the essential difference between socialism and capitalism. The essence of socialism is to emancipate the productive forces, develop the productive forces, eliminate exploitation, eliminate polarization, and ultimately achieve common prosperity. In doing so, of course, we must be wary of bourgeois liberalization and peaceful evolution......"
Chang listened and nodded repeatedly, some of the theoretical views originally came from Chang's own ideas, so in his mind, it naturally coincided.
Listening to Leng Yunfei's point of view, he said with a slight bow: "I didn't expect Comrade Leng Yunfei's views to be so profound, and I still didn't believe it when I read the article, but now I see it, it is indeed insightful, the thinking is clear, the idea is bold and grounded, not only from the height of a country to analyze, and even the foreign exhibition situation has made a profound analysis, summing up the key point that our country must take its own unique exhibition path, which is very good." It is precisely the conscientious, diligent and conscientious comrades at the grassroots level who pay attention to summing up lessons and lessons while crossing the river by feeling the stones, that is where the hope of our party lies! ”
Leng Yunfei listened to the long compliment, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed in his heart. Most of these ideas come from Leng Binghan, and they are all obtained and summarized from him in the communication with him. Without his mention, I would not have such a deep understanding and understanding of many things. It is really embarrassing for a 50-year-old cadre at the department level who has been in the party for more than 30 years to steal these things from his son.
However, he didn't know that Leng Binghan was a real master of plagiarism, otherwise even if he lived for a few more lifetimes, he would not be able to have such a deep understanding and understanding as he looked.
In line with Leng Yunhong's line of thought and viewpoint, he analyzed the international and domestic situation, summed up the party's basic practice and basic experience since the Third Plenary Session of the 11 th CPC Central Committee, reiterated the necessity and importance of deepening reform and expanding the work in view of the doubts that are prevalent in people's minds at present, and proceeded from China's reality and stood at the height of the times to profoundly sum up the lessons and lessons of reform and opening up for more than 10 years, and clearly answered many major cognitive questions that often plague and shackle people's minds on a series of major theoretical and practical issues. He pointed out that the criterion for judging right and wrong should be mainly judged by whether it is conducive to the development of the productive forces of socialist society, whether it is conducive to enhancing the comprehensive national strength of socialist countries, and whether it is conducive to improving the people's living standards. He stressed the need to seize the opportunity, carry out bold reforms, speed up development, and unswervingly adhere to the party's basic line for 100 years. We must unswervingly implement the party's basic line of "one central task and two basic points," persistently follow the road of socialism with Chinese characteristics, seize the current favorable opportunity, quicken the pace of reform and opening up, and concentrate efforts on economic construction. New ideas have been put forward and new breakthroughs have been made, and the theory of building socialism with Chinese characteristics has been greatly advanced.
This is precisely the content of the famous speech of Chang Nan Tour in history, which has pointed out the principles and policies of our party and our country in recent decades, unified their thinking, and enabled the broad masses of cadres and masses to lay down their burdens and devote themselves wholeheartedly to the rolling torrent of reform and opening up. However, compared with history, the time of this speech was advanced by more than 10 days, and the venue was also changed from Shanghai and Guangzhou to Chengdu, so that Chengdu, a famous city through the ages, shined brightly in the southern tour with far-reaching historical significance.
After finishing speaking, the conference room resounded with warm applause, and the provincial and municipal leaders were also like lights on the road ahead.
Before the meeting was about to end, the chief said to Leng Yunping: "You go back and prepare, and when I come back from Guang'an, you will go with me to Chongqing, Wuhan, Shenzhen and other places to take a look at the actual exhibition situation there." Practice is the only criterion for testing the truth, you go and look at it, and then compare it with your own theoretical ideas to see if they are correct. ”
When Leng Yunfei heard this, he trembled suddenly, and he couldn't believe his ears, while the other officials and cadres in the conference room all looked at him with extreme envy and jealousy, and sighed that he was really good, just with a few articles, not only did he get into the eyes of the long, but now he was ordered by the elder to go on a southern tour with his own elder, so is it worth it? If you can follow the long side, then you are definitely likely to get the favor of the long in this process, and then you can really go straight to the clouds, and the future is promising.
Seeing that Leng Yunphong had not answered, the chief was also stunned for a moment, and asked, "What, Comrade Leng Yunpong, are there any difficulties?" ”
Wang Peiyuan's heart tightened when he saw this scene, and he couldn't wait to immediately accept it for Leng Yunyi, so he quickly coughed twice, wanting to remind him in this not very inappropriate way.
Leng Yunhong also woke up from the excitement, and hurriedly nodded while saying to the chief: "Thank you for the trust, I will definitely study and study the construction spirit and exhibition ideas of coastal cities, and constantly improve and improve my ideological consciousness and awareness." ”
"Comrade Yun Peng, congratulations. You will be fortunate enough to go to the east and south with Chang this time, but you must take advantage of the advanced experience of Chang and those brother cities, and then come back to bear a heavier burden! I knew that Comrade Yun Fei was a good comrade, so I tried my best to defy public opinion and let you come to the party school to study and improve. You go back in the next two days to prepare well, you don't have to go to the party school first, in a word, at least we will study in the party school for a year! If you have any difficulties, just tell me directly, and I will definitely try my best to help you solve them. After coming down, the secretary of the provincial party committee came over first and said cordially to Leng Yunfei, while still showing off his favors.
Fortunately, I didn't do anything for my own selfish desires at that time, otherwise, it would have ended badly. This Leng Yunphong can let the chief take him to the southern tour today, what will happen tomorrow, no one dares to pack tickets, who can tell how his future exhibitions will be? Such a person must not be an enemy.
The secretary of the provincial party committee has put down his body, and the others are naturally not to be missed, even Zhao Dazhong and Wang Wen, who wanted to put him to death at that time, were as if nothing had happened, and they came up and took Leng Yunfei's hand and didn't let go, so enthusiastically that even Leng Yunfei couldn't stand it anymore, and he had to invite him to dinner, but Leng Yunfei repeatedly refused before giving up, seeing that those who were not qualified to enter the conference room, some department-level and even some deputy ministerial-level cadres who were close to the chief were very puzzled, Today, why has this cold cloud become the head of the hot nest, and everyone is scrambling to be courteous.
When he went back, Leng Binghan was also shocked, although everything was planned by him in secret, but he never thought that the chief would summon Leng Yunfei and let him participate in the southern tour with him, which was really a big surprise. Happy that he was holding his father and was bouncing for a while.
Wang Peiyuan was even more happy that Leng Yunhong had such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. That night, both of them were very drunk to celebrate.
Two days later, in the envious eyes of all the officials, Leng Yunfei followed the chief to the special train of the southern tour, and his vision slowly looked at the whole country and the world with the long line of thought. Since then, it has been like a wild horse on the loose, galloping quickly on the road ahead.
