Chapter 607: Institutional Issues

Mu's mother and Zhang Letong came to the hospital, found Mu Tianyu's ward, and saw Secretary Zhang of the central government's working group for the supervision of major fire accidents in Jiangcheng, talking to Mu Tianyu.

The two sat down in lounge chairs at the door, waiting for them to finish.

"Now that the fire protection renovation project of Hanzhong Street has been fully launched, do you, as the proposer of the plan, think that by the next Spring Festival, can you really avoid major fires?"

Mu Tianyu looked at Secretary Zhang and replied quickly and firmly: "Yes." ”

"Why are you so sure?"

"For major fire accidents, one is that the economic loss reaches more than 50 million yuan and less than 100 million yuan; The second is to cause the death of more than 10 people and less than 30 people, or the serious injury of more than 50 people and less than 100 people. ”

Mu Tianyu looked at Secretary Zhang, and continued: "The fire protection transformation has eliminated the 'three-in-one place', and the goods storage has a special fire alarm and sprinkler system, which will not cause a large area of burning goods." There will be no serious economic losses. ”

"Is it really that simple?"

"Yes." Mu Tianyu replied in the affirmative, and he continued: "Also due to the elimination of the 'three-in-one place', the separation of living places, business places, and storage places, each place has a professional fire alarm system and automatic sprinkler system, plus the dredging of fire passages, it is difficult to have a large-scale fire." Even if there is a small fire, it is easy to extinguish. ”

Secretary Zhang listened to Mu Tianyu's affirmative answer, and he was quite happy in his heart. He can finally leave Jiangcheng with peace of mind, he has been in Jiangcheng for a long time. He did not solve some superficial problems, as he did in previous generations, and did not solve deep-seated fundamental problems. He was now sure that he had solved some deep-seated fundamental problems, so he could feel more at ease.

"Tianyu, this time I came to Jiangcheng, your old principal, General Yang, but I strongly recommend you to me."

"I may have failed General Yang's high hopes, and I ask Secretary Zhang to criticize more."

"No, you're doing a good job." Secretary Zhang immediately affirmed, and suddenly extended a big new question, he asked Mu Tianyu: "Recently, the issue of 'professionalization' of fire protection has been discussed from the central to the local, and I want to hear your thoughts." ”

When Mu Tianyu heard this question, he really felt a little emotional. I think that at the beginning, he gave up going to Tsinghua University or Peking University and applied for the China Armed Police University, and he was worried about this problem. Later, your father said: "No matter how much the army is reformed, it will not transfer the fire brigade to the local government." ”

This made Mu Tianyu unwavering, and really applied for the Chinese Armed Police University.

Later, as his position and rank rose to the top, he wanted to lead troops, he wanted to fight, and he had to think carefully about this issue.

Those who advocate the "professionalization" of firefighting, when talking about the outstanding problems in the military service system of firefighting, they mainly boil down to the following:

(1) The professional quality of firefighters is not high, which affects the combat effectiveness of the troops;

(2) Facing a second employment, causing unease to the troops;

(3) The multiplicity of the management system has affected the all-round development of the fire brigade;

(4) Inadequate treatment has affected the stability of the troops.

They believe that the professionalization of the fire brigade is an effective means to solve the above problems.

Mu Tianyu thought for a while and said to Secretary Zhang: "Actually, this is a false proposition, professionalism and military service are not contradictory. ”

Secretary Zhang felt very fresh and asked: "This is the one that is discussed the most now, how can it not be contradictory?" ”

"Let's put it this way, just take myself," Mu Tianyu sat on the bed in a hospital gown, pointed to himself and said, "Am I not a professional firefighter?" The fire brigade is composed of all commanders and fighters, just like other arms of the troops, when foreign enemies invade us, the PLA soldiers are also facing the problem of secondary employment, and they all have the problem of not very high salary, so they will not fight? ”

"You mean that both civil service and military service can be professional. Therefore, the issue discussed is not in essence a question of professionalism, but a question of system. ”

"Yes, according to a U.S. statistic, firefighters in their 30s have the lowest mortality rate in firefighting, followed by those in their 20s, and firefighters in their 40s and above have a higher mortality rate. In China's fire brigade, it is impossible to have firefighters in their 40s, and the military service system can also classify firefighters as technical arms, increase the number of non-commissioned officers, and increase the proportion of firefighters in their 30s. In this sense, military service is more advantageous than civil service. However, it is difficult for civil service firefighters to retire in their 30s, and in the future, there will be more and more people over 30 years old, or even 40 years old or 50 years old. What else is there to talk about combat effectiveness? ”

"Yes, that's a problem." Secretary Zhang listened and echoed: "This problem is also a cost issue. In addition, I would like to ask, can the firefighter civil service system reduce the frequency of fires? ”

"Obviously not, this problem has been proven in both the United States and Japan." "And the cost is very high, taking Jiangcheng City as an example, according to the data that every 10,000 people need to be equipped with more than 10 firefighters, we want to attract 13,000 firefighters with high salaries, and the government needs to spend nearly 5 billion yuan a year." ”

"Is it possible for developed countries like the United States and Japan to implement the civil service system of the fire brigade?"

"Not at all," Mu Tianyu categorically denied: "The fire brigades of various countries in the world almost all implement military-style military management, but the funding channels for supporting the fire brigade are different. ”

"Well, it's understandable," Secretary Zhang said, "that the fire brigade can't implement an eight-hour work week like a real civil servant, and it can't have weekends." ”

Firefighters in the United States, who are only in relatively large cities, are a bit like civil servants, with almost the same retirement benefits. But you have to do 25 years of firefighting.

Mu Tianyu knew that Secretary Zhang had come to Jiangcheng to deal with the problem on behalf of the central government.

What he says may be brought back to the central government and influence high-level decision-making. Therefore, Mu Tianyu did not open his mouth and say something irresponsible.

Either he doesn't express an opinion, or he has to be accurate and well-founded.

Although he cherishes words like gold, he still forms an attitude in Secretary Zhang's heart. That was the attitude of the Chinese firefighters. The new generation of fire officers represented by Mu Tianyu has become a beautiful landscape to ensure the smooth development of Jiangcheng.

Secretary Zhang stood up at this time and said that he was leaving. Mu Tianyu wanted to get out of bed to see him off: "Thank you so much Secretary Zhang, and you made a special trip to see me." ”

"This is what I should." Secretary Zhang agreed, and pressed Mu Tianyu to prevent him from getting out of bed.

"I was supposed to come to see you, delaying your sleep."

"It's okay, you can sleep again at night."
