Section 3: The New and the Old (5)
Since history has not changed, some memories of past lives are still useful, and even if history is changed, nothing seems to have happened. The Second Great Wall War of Resistance did not cause such a big wave in Chongqing, mainly due to the control of public opinion and the effectiveness of the Three Youth League and the grassroots party organizations.
However, this calm made Zhuang Jihua feel a little dissatisfied, and he published an article in the "Yuzhou Evening News" entitled "What Should We Do Now", in which Zhuang Jihua analyzed in detail the gap between China's current national conditions and China's language.
“…… To sum up, on the surface, the gap between China and China is the gap in the strength of the armed forces and the gap in equipment, but in fact the gap in industrial capacity, the gap in mass organizations, and the gap in economic strength.
First of all, we have vigorously developed industry, and heavy industry, especially the iron and steel industry, has been vigorously developed, and with steel, we will be able to produce machine guns and cannons, and we will be able to produce bullets, and we will be able to better equip the troops.
Secondly, we should reform society and strengthen the people's organizations, and we have recently taken some measures, which have caused a lot of discussion, but this is the best and fastest way to organize the people, and some people shout all day long, but the reform measures slightly damage their rights, and they immediately shout that they are not free, but they don't want to think about whether China, which is scattered and scattered, can defeat the powerful aggressor?
In the early stages of social reform, it is inevitable that people's rights and interests will be harmed, such as the identity card system, and also the reserve service. According to the reserve system, all school-age young people have to be soldiers, which has a forced surname, which makes some people very unhappy, because the resistance they preach is to let others go to the battlefield, and they will not go, so they began to attack this system as cruel and inhumane, but they did not think about it, without a strong reserve, where would the replenishment of the army come from? War is attrition, it is to kill people, and an important reason why the Great Wall War of Resistance failed so quickly is that the troops are not satisfied.
Most of China's military is a recruitment system, which is often referred to as tree flag recruitment, although this method is 'humane', but the time is slow, so it cannot quickly make up for the loss of large-scale wars, so we must establish a reserve, and the establishment of a reserve requires a lot of auxiliary policies, such as ID cards, such as hukou, such as the street grassroots social management units.
Compatriots, what the Second Great Wall War of Resistance tells us, in my opinion, I am telling us that a large-scale full-scale invasion of China is about to begin, and we have no time to argue, stop it, hurry up and do it!
If you want to win tomorrow, you can only work hard today. ”
The hukou and ID card system implemented some time ago has caused a lot of discussion and opposition in society, so Zhuang Jihua spent a lot of space explaining why these measures were implemented. "Yuzhou Evening News" made a big splash in the last news war, and then snatched readers, with the financial support of Zhuang Jihua, Mei Youlan won a big victory again, and "Yuzhou Evening News" became one of the three largest newspapers in Chongqing, and the other two were also under Zhuang Jihua's control.
Zhuang Jihua's article caused a big discussion in Yucheng, and Teng Jie and Zhuang Jihua's cooperation became better and better, and he organized members of the Three Youth League to write letters to readers to the newspaper to participate in this discussion. "As long as you can defeat Yue himself", "The price of social reform", "Why Chinese do not want to be soldiers". In Chongqing, there was a strong call for social change, and those who opposed it were labeled capitulationists, and celebrities began to praise the various laws promulgated by the municipal axe, and the voices criticizing these institutions were swept away.
But Zhuang Jihua still felt that it was not enough, and he ordered the trade union, the Three Youth League, and the Kuomintang Party Department to organize grassroots party members and members to study and discuss this article.
"It is necessary to make every party member and league member aware of the danger of the situation, and discuss how to seize the time and how to speed up the situation in connection with their own work." Zhuang Jihua said to Teng Jie and Feng Wei.
After Feng Yi arrived in Yucheng, he obviously felt that Zhuang Jihua in Yucheng was very different from Zhuang Jihua in Guangzhou. It doesn't even matter if he is promoted or not, the most typical example is Chiang Kai-shek's snub of him after the reorganization of the Sichuan army, and even he was worried about Zhuang Jihua's counterattack, he knew that if Zhuang Jihua wanted to resign in anger, Chiang Kai-shek would definitely use concessions to appease him. But in the end, Zhuang Jihua didn't do anything, as if nothing had happened.
But Zhuang Jihua in Yucheng is different, in some places he is very tough, and he is determined to carry out his own ideas, and any persuasion is useless, but in the end he found that the implementation of his ideas is indeed effective, let's just say that this ID card has a great effect on restricting the activities of the Communist Party.
This time Zhuang Jihua asked them to organize a discussion, Teng Jie was still a little hesitant, but Feng Yi immediately agreed, he wanted to try it first and see what could happen.
What happened next made Feng Wei surprised, the trade union of a factory proposed to carry out an activity of "improving technology and paying close attention to quality" in the discussion, and the report was handed in, Zhuang Jihua praised it, thinking that this action expanded the work ideas of the trade union, so that the first factory immediately implemented.
In order to do a good job in this activity, Zhuang Jihua personally went to the first factory to squat, he told the trade union leader Xiao Sanmu, the role of the trade union is to care about the workers and safeguard the interests of the workers, but you can't just stay on this, you should also pay attention to the situation of the factory, and solve some problems, such as the current defective rate is so high, why is this? It is clear that the workers are not skilled enough, so should the unions help the workers improve their skills? Of course it should, if a worker produces a hundred products, and thirty of them are scrap, how much is the waste of material worth for these thirty scraps, and if this is your factory, would you still hire such workers? Therefore, helping workers improve their technology is to help them hold their jobs, and if the technology is in your hands, no one can take it away, and you will be equivalent to holding a golden job.
The workers present were convinced, and then Zhuang Jihua continued: "Resistance requires a lot of weapons and equipment, the current output is simply enough, we will soon expand production, but the number of workers is a big problem, you now know, some work is not just by strength, you have to become a technical expert as soon as possible, and then take apprentices, I tell you, we are about to formulate a policy, with apprentices is rich, each apprentice is more than two oceans per month, Each apprentice will be rewarded with 20 oceans for his surname. ”
"Vice Mayor Zhuang, we don't want money, we promise to bring the apprentices well." A young man said.
"That's not good, the positive surname needs to be protected, but the hard work is spent, and it should still be paid," Zhuang Jihua said and looked at him, and asked suspiciously: "You can take an apprentice at such a young age?" ”
The people around laughed, and the young man was a little anxious: "Why can't I, I have brought one." ”
"He can bring, and his technology can be ranked in the top ten in our factory." Xiao Sanmu explained with a smile.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm blind." Zhuang Jihua also smiled, but the young people were a little at a loss.
The whole activity lasted for a month, first the individual competition and then the team competition, but Zhuang Jihua did not use the method of monetary rewards this time, but the use of spiritual rewards, the first place hung on the big red flower and rode on the horse by him to lead the horse in the factory for a circle, the second place was the factory director to lead the horse, the third place was Xiao Sanmu to lead the horse, and the advanced team was a big pennant hung in the team lounge.
The right to report on this event was obtained by Mei Youlan again, and after the photo of Zhuang Jihua leading the horse was published in the "Yuzhou Evening News", it immediately caused a sensation. The citizens were very affectionate to the young deputy mayor.
However, celebrities began to accuse Zhuang Jihua of grandstanding and being so humble to the workers that undermined the majesty of the political officials. Mei Youlan once again held a pen and fought a pen battle with the National People's Congress.
But in any case, the technological progress deliberately promoted by Zhuang Jihua began, and the workers of the 23456 factory, the cement factory, and the pharmaceutical factory took action, and quickly formed an upsurge of vigorously grasping technology and improving quality.
Feng Yi was still a little puzzled, could it be that Zhuang Jihua's purpose was to improve his skills? He felt that Zhuang Jihua still had means behind him.
Sure enough, soon Zhuang Jihua asked Xiao Sanmu, who initiated the initiative, to be promoted to the district party committee to be in charge of trade union work, and it was only then that Zhuang Jihua fully explained his purpose.
"I have not been in charge of party affairs since entering Sichuan, I was worried that Lifu would have an opinion on this, but now it is not good, the party affairs work has begun to show signs of dragging the development of the southwest, and social reform must have an organization and leadership to get twice the result with half the effort, but now the situation of our party, I think you can also see it."
Feng Yi did not speak for Zhuang Jihua's euphemistic criticism, and there were no other three things in the Kuomintang's housing work, propaganda, development of new party members, and spy work.
"Now some party members do party affairs as officials, and they are full of bureaucratic habits, and they do not have the qualities that a party member should have, and I think the reason is that the development of party members is too casual, some people just join the party from a temporary surname, some are persuaded to join the party, and some join the party just to become officials, this situation cannot continue, our party must improve its combat effectiveness, strengthen the building of the grassroots level, and promote new party cadres from the grassroots level." Zhuang Jihua said.
"Your purpose is to discover capable grassroots cadres through these methods?" Feng Wei asked.
Zhuang Jihua nodded, and Feng Wei smiled bitterly: "You still haven't forgotten your strategy back then." But during the Cultural Revolution, I would like to advise you that our party's tradition is to recruit party members among intellectuals and the military. ”
What Feng Wei said was the truth, although the way the Kuomintang recruited party members was very casual, but he had very high cultural requirements for its members, and the core class was all highly educated elites. As for Wang Jingwei, Hu Hanmin, Sun Ke, Wu Zhihui, and Dai Jitao, these people are all well-educated people. If you want to recruit workers into the party, others will ask him if he knows what sangming boils righteousness is? I'm afraid you won't have anything to say.
