At three o'clock in the afternoon, the Provincial Department of Education Party Group Work Conference was held in a large conference room on the ninth floor, attended by members of the Party Group of the Provincial Department of Education, inspectors, deputy inspectors, and discipline inspection cadres of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection in the Provincial Department of Education, the meeting was presided over by Zhu Zhenghe, director of the Provincial Department of Education, and the director of the Office of the Provincial Department of Education served as the minutes of the meeting "Comrades, good afternoon. The meeting mainly discussed the issue of provincial education reform and did not discuss other issues. It has been several years since the national education reform was proposed at the end of the 90s of the last century, and Hunan Province has taken the initiative to become a pilot project for the national education reform. Hunan Province has made a lot of achievements in educational reform, which is obvious to all, but the shortcomings are also shocking. At today's work conference, we will not talk about achievements, but only about the various problems that exist, and we will concentrate on discussing how to solve these problems, so that the educational reform work in Hunan Province will be better and better, and only then will the education of Hunan Province be at the forefront of the whole country. As soon as the meeting began, Zhu Zhenghe's eyes swept over everyone and said slowly.

His tone is very elegant, which is no different from his usual style before, Zhu Zhenghe is like a good man in the Provincial Department of Education, he usually speaks without a trace of anger, and has no value at all. However, the content of this speech is obviously very different from the content of previous occasions. The question he said was very sharp, and this party group meeting only talked about problems and not achievements! He had never said such a thing before. Zhu Zhenghe took a short break, took a sip of tea, and continued: "Comrades, next year is a crucial year for the education reform of Hunan Province, because our education reform in Hunan Province is already at a fork in the road, and how to choose is related to the success or failure of the education reform of the entire Hunan Province, and will also affect the final trend of the national education reform. After all, Hunan Province is one of the three pilots, and it is the most representative of the three pilots. Well, having said so much, I have been emphasizing the importance of education reform, in fact, these are all clichés, and everyone is estimated to hear the cocoon in their ears if they talk too much. I would like to start here, and I would like to invite you to express your views and talk more about the problems that exist in this educational reform. ”

After speaking, he took the teacup, took a sip of tea slowly, and looked at everyone. The conference room fell silent for a moment, and the sound of cigarette lighters and tea drinking came and went, like a concerto. At this time, most people's eyes were aimed at Xue Wenqiu, deputy secretary of the party group and deputy director of the Provincial Department of Education, Xue Wenqiu is usually an activist, once Zhu Zhenghe finished speaking, Xue Wenqiu would take over the conversation, and even sometimes preempted Zhu Zhenghe's words, and everyone also knew that Xue Wenqiu would take over the position of director of the Provincial Department of Education in the next few years, and Zhu Zhenghe seemed to acquiesce in this fact. They felt strange that how could Xue Wenqiu be so abnormal today, a long time had passed since Zhu Zhenghe finished speaking, and Xue Wenqiu had not moved.

In fact, everyone didn't know that Xue Wenqiu was also waiting for Lin Jinhong to speak first, and he wanted to suppress Lin Jinhong at the party group meeting to give him a dismissal. Xue Wenqiu felt that Zhu Zhenghe had changed a lot in the past two days, and he vaguely felt that such a change should be because of Lin Jinhong's arrival, and he felt that if there was anyone else in the Provincial Department of Education who could influence him to take over the position of director of the Provincial Department of Education, then this person must be Lin Jinhong, not anyone else.

Xue Wenqiu's idea is very good, but unfortunately, he waited for a long time, Lin Jinhong always lowered his head and did not speak, Xue Wenqiu felt that his patience was slowly disappearing, if the meeting was cold, where would his face go. He couldn't bear it anymore, and finally coughed, cleared his throat, attracted everyone's attention, and said slowly: "Comrades, Director Zhu just said that this meeting only reports worries and not good news. In the current society, which meeting will report good news but not good news, even before, most of our meetings are good news but not bad news. Since there is this formulation, then I will follow the requirements of the leadership to solve the problems that exist in the provincial education reform. ”

"Reform is to get rid of the old and irrational parts and make them more rational and perfect. Taken literally, this reform will deprive some people of their vested interests, and at the same time will cause those who did not have rights to regain some of their rights. It can be seen from this that reform is not an easy thing to do, and it will offend some people, and in order not to lose the power in their hands in vain, this part of the people must do everything possible to prevent the reform and lead the reform astray, so the reform has problems. ”

Speaking of this, Xue Wenqiu took a sip of tea, "If we want to solve the problem, then we have to dig the root cause of the problem, what is the root cause." It is the people who will lose their power as a result of our educational reform, and as long as we supervise these people, we will find the root cause. The next problems are much easier to handle, and this is the general idea of reform to solve problems. With such a general line of thought guiding us to carry out reforms, we will be able to avoid taking some crooked paths and enable reform to proceed smoothly. Let me now analyze who will lose their vested interests as a result of the reform. Education reform includes all aspects, but there are three points that must be pursued: one is to achieve a higher level of universal education, basic universal preschool education; consolidating and raising the level of nine-year compulsory education; Universal access to upper secondary education and increased enrolment in tertiary education. From this point of view, we can now see that if we want to popularize education, it is inevitable to increase investment in education, and increasing investment in education will make the local government financial expenditure increase significantly, and government leaders will think that increasing investment in education will delay the ......development of the local economy."

As soon as Lin Jinhong, who was sitting in the back, heard Xue Wenqiu say this, he knew that he was coming at him, Lin Jinhong looked up, and sure enough, he saw Xue Wenqiu's eyes looking this way. The eyes of the two collided in the air in an instant, sparks. Xue Wenqiu didn't expect Lin Jinhong to just respond to the battle at this time, and he felt a little surprised, but a sneer quickly appeared on his lips, and he saw Xue Wenqiu suddenly stop and said leisurely: "For this problem, I think Director Lin Jinhong of the Reform Office should have more power, he has also been at the grassroots level before, and he is the number one." Comrade Lin Jinhong, tell me about this issue, okay? After speaking, he held the teacup and looked at Lin Jinhong leisurely.

Everyone was taken aback, and they all followed Xue Wenqiu's eyes to Lin Jinhong. Lin Jinhong has only been here for a day, and there are not many people who know him, so it can be said that there are less than four or five people in the entire conference room. At the same time, everyone is a little familiar with the name Lin Jinhong, after all, Zhu Zhenghe has mentioned Lin Jinhong's name more than once. Following Xue Wenqiu's line of sight, everyone saw that Lin Jinhong was so young, but he was the director of the Reform Office, a division-level leader, and his division-level was much more powerful than some other deputy department-level inspectors in the Education Department. It can be said that he is one of the top division-level leaders of the Provincial Department of Education.

Lin Jinhong smiled slowly and said, "I think I should let Deputy Director Xue finish the three main points first, and it's not too late for me to say more." Deputy Director Xue's theoretical views are very novel, and everyone can't wait to continue listening. If I speak at this time, I am afraid that it will arouse the public indignation of the leaders. ”

Xue Wenqiu was stunned, he didn't expect Lin Jinhong to kick the ball back to himself so lightly, and it was very different if he had stayed at the grassroots level. Xue Wenqiu wanted to say something, but suddenly heard Zhu Zhenghe say: "Comrade Jinhong is right, Comrade Wenqiu should not be humble, let's continue to finish the three main points first, okay!" ”

Since Zhu Zhenghe had spoken, Xue Wenqiu didn't dare to go too far, so he had to continue, "The current leaders of party and government departments at all levels have a consensus, that is, everything is centered on economic development, since increasing investment in education will delay the local economic development, let alone this assumption is correct, they are naturally unwilling to do so." It can be said that they believe that this damages their vested interests, and they will do everything possible to prevent education reform. This is the most serious and prominent problem that has been implemented so far in education, and the reform requires money, and if there is no money to invest, then how can the reform be carried out. Nowadays, investment in education is generally low across the country, and this problem seriously restricts education reform. ”

Lin Jinhong originally had a certain expectation of Xue Wenqiu's views, but as soon as he heard this, he understood that Xue Wenqiu was still playing the same old tune, everything was about money, as if education reform was constantly throwing money into it, and if there was too much money, the reform would be successful. Lin Jinhong, who lost interest, paid attention to the expressions of the people beside him, some nodded, some quietly shook their heads, some pretended to be enlightened, shook their heads, and some simply squinted and pretended to sleep. All kinds of expressions were included in Lin Jinhong's eyes.

Zhu Zhenghe was also shaking his head slightly, Lin Jinhong was stunned, it seems that this Xue Wenqiu is not a perfect successor in Zhu Zhenghe's eyes, of course, whether Xue Wenqiu can become Zhu Zhenghe's successor, he Zhu Zhenghe is powerless to stop it, and he Zhu Zhenghe is powerless to control the personnel problems at the top of the Hunan Provincial Department of Education.

At this time, a burst of warm applause rang out, interrupting Lin Jinhong's thoughts. Xue Wenqiu finally finished speaking, holding the teacup and looking at himself. Lin Jinhong knew that Xue Wenqiu would not let go of the opportunity to suppress himself this time, he couldn't avoid it even if he wanted to, not to mention that he didn't plan to avoid it at all. People are pressing step by step, and wishful thinking is never a solution.

"Next, I will click on the general, everyone welcomes the speech of Comrade Lin Jinhong, director of the Reform Office." Xue Wenqiu took it upon himself to put the right to speak into the hands of Lin Jinhong.

"Deputy Director Xue's speech just now is very wonderful, and the three main points are still of important guiding significance for future reform work. Since Deputy Director Xue repeatedly wants me to make a fool of myself, then I will give it back. As soon as he finished speaking, everyone burst into laughter, most people didn't hear Lin Jinhong's words "Deputy Director Xue repeatedly wants me to make a fool of me" was the truth, they thought it was Lin Jinhong's humble words, and only Zhu Zhenghe and Xue Wenqiu could hear the real meaning of these words.
