Chapter 385: East Adaptation 4
Life in the Baath system is not very easy. The vast majority of the party members, cadres and workers of the Baath Party have the most direct experience of this feeling.
It is true that the Baath Party provides everyone with food that is open to eat and can eat freely, it is not false that the Baath Party provides everyone with clothes, shoes and socks for the four seasons, and it is not false that the Baath Party provides everyone with modern housing with a per capita living area of 15 square meters.
No one, whether it is an ordinary soldier in the Baath Army, an ordinary worker on a farm, or a front-line worker in a factory, will say that the Baath Party treats them badly and that the Baath Party does not care about them.
But then again, the Ba'ath Party gives everyone the right to participate in politics, and the Ba'ath Party even forces everyone to participate in policy formulation and various decisions. However, life under the rule of the Ba'ath Party is not just a matter of making efforts, working honestly and being done.
The food, materials, housing, and so on provided by the Baath Party are all directly related to the assessment of cultural knowledge, ideological and political knowledge, and professional skills.
Within the Ba'ath system, the level of the title is directly linked to the level of salary. Workers must pass the professional title examination, cadres must pass the professional title examination, and soldiers must pass the professional title examination. Only after passing the professional title examination and assessing the corresponding level, will you enjoy the salary and treatment at all levels according to the level.
After all, human beings are social animals, and in the highly organized life of industrial society, human social attributes will be particularly highlighted. You are a first-class worker, although there is no substantial gap in political and social status, but you feel weak and short of breath in front of the second-level worker. You are a private, and although you have the same voting rights as everyone else under the democratic system of the army, you must salute when you see a private.
Where there is comparison, there is competition, and where there is competition, there is motivation. Under the rule of the Ba'ath Party, there are people who are ready to work hard and work hard all their lives as junior workers, but this kind of people who do not want to make progress, are unwilling to work hard to learn cultural knowledge, and are unwilling to evaluate their titles and ranks, not only will everyone despise you and ridicule you, but they will also be ignored in the process of resource distribution.
To take the simplest example, those female farm workers, army soldiers, and factory workers under the same Ba'ath Party rule, in the process of choosing a mate, they will definitely not choose those who are unwilling to make progress and are willing to receive the least basic salary and enjoy the worst treatment.
The Dongjiang Renaissance Army, which was reorganized by the soldiers and civilians of Dongjiang Town, may be very incomprehensible and reluctant to participate in the democratic system of the Renaissance Army, but they are very comfortable with this kind of evaluation system of professional titles and grades within the Renaissance Army.
If you are an individual, you will pursue a better life and a higher social status, which is something engraved in human genes.
The feudal system, especially China's unique power feudal system, did not fail to provide a channel for ordinary people to advance their social status. The feudal imperial examination system is the most advanced official selection system in the world, which has been ahead for thousands of years. The system itself is indeed of a certain advanced nature.
But having said that, even if we don't talk about the problem of class solidification at the end of the feudal dynasty, even in the early stage of the feudal dynasty where social class mobility was relatively active, it was not really possible to achieve the ideal situation of "the dynasty is the son of heaven at the end of the day". The backward level of productive forces determines that ordinary laborers, as the majority of society, are incapable of changing their social status by means of reading and conducting scientific examinations.
Let's take the simplest example, under the condition that the level of development of the productive forces of modern society is so high, aren't some children in remote areas also unable to receive education because of the lack of local educational resources? This situation is even more common in a feudal agrarian society where the productive forces are backward and the relations of production are backward.
Not to mention that tenant farming and other working families are unable to support scholars, even those homesteaders do not have the ability to do so. There is no small landlord with dozens of acres of land in the family, and it is rare to see what the books look like.
The Ba'ath Party, an industrial organization backed by a gatekeeper like Wang Shuhui, is capable of providing educational resources to everyone under the Ba'ath Party. In fact, the Baath Party has specially formulated systems and laws stipulating that education is not only the right of the people, but also the duty of the people.
In this case, all the organizations and institutions of the Ba'ath Party have provided a fair path for all people to ascend. A large number of educated people were quickly discovered, reused, and promoted within the Baath Party's fair, fair and open promotion system.
Zhao's eldest son is such a very obvious example. He did really well in his class. In the first three assessments of ideological, political, and cultural knowledge and military skills, he stood out and was soon noticed by the cadres of his battalion. At the same time, he has become a key target of the Baath Party.
Within the Baath Party system, and especially within the Ba'ath Army, the pressure on cadres is numerous times greater than that of ordinary soldiers.
Wang Shuhui's view on the cadres of the army is that the ability of the commander must be stronger than that of ordinary soldiers, and the level of the commander must be higher than that of ordinary soldiers.
Under such a requirement, both professional and political cadres, because of the selection system, their own three qualities, political and cultural skills, are higher than those of ordinary soldiers. However, in order to ensure that their ability and level are always maintained at a high level, they have to study and train their own while conducting management education and training for fighters.
If you don't advance, you will retreat. This sentence is really vividly embodied in the revival army. Such a system has indeed led to a large number of talented people in the revival army.
The appearance of Zhao's eldest son, for his class, was on the one hand an encouragement to ordinary soldiers, and it was also a spur to the squad leader and instructor of his class.
It is obvious that after Zhao Changzi successfully passed the assessment and received the attention of his superiors, whether it was the ordinary soldiers in the squad or the squad leaders and instructors in the class, they all began to seize all their free time to study and train hard.
In fact, what they don't know is that the fundamental reason why Zhao Changzi works so hard, works so hard, and wants to achieve good results at all costs is not out of consideration such as the rise of status and the improvement of treatment.
The fundamental reason for his desperate efforts is that he heard by chance that the Revival Army was about to launch a military attack on the Later Jin Jurchen. Zhao Changzi desperately wanted to get such an opportunity to participate in military operations.
For Zhao's eldest son, whose entire family died under the massacre of the Houjin Nuzhen, revenge, more than all good food and drink, and social status, have a greater attraction to him.
Being able to get the opportunity to kill the Tartars, being able to kill the Tartars, this is enough for Zhao's eldest son
