The effect of many words in this world often depends on the person who speaks.
The big shots just say "just sit down and come when you have time", and the place is often magnificent, filled with guests and laughter;
When a small person earnestly invites others to do him the honor, what he may get in return is sitting alone at an empty table, staring at the table full of food and wine in a desolate daze.
Just like at this moment, Huo Qianli just called on the comrades who happened to be in the courtyard to hold a small meeting, and everyone happened to be in the courtyard and appeared neatly around the conference table.
Huo Qianli didn't say much, and said directly: "I would like to ask you a question, what is the most important thing for us to do a good job at the grassroots level?"
After spending a long time together, everyone gradually got used to Huo Qianli's simple and straightforward style, and they all started answering after a moment's thought.
"I think to change people, we must first change their minds. Once everyone's minds are unified, everything will be easy to talk about."
"I think cultural guidance is the most important. As long as new ideas and new culture are passed on to the grassroots and customs are changed, they will naturally be able to burst out with new vitality like urban residents."
"I think what the two comrades just said are all natural things after the development of economic life. In the process of development, scientific management is more important. Only by using scientific and reasonable management methods to effectively manage the grassroots people can we effectively bring them together and open up a new development situation."
"From this perspective, I think policies that fit the actual situation are more important, just like what Secretary Huo did in Hushan Village before. Only by adapting our policies to local conditions and objective reality can we achieve the desired results. Otherwise, no one can go far if they walk in shoes that don't fit."
Everyone spoke one sentence at a time, and then the discussion gradually died down, and everyone looked at Huo Qianli who remained silent.
Huo Qianli listened to everyone's words quietly, and then said, "Everyone's speeches were very good and inspiring. I will also share my thoughts."
He looked around and said, "When it comes to grassroots work, what everyone said just now is correct, but it is not in-depth enough. I think the most critical point is to be practical, to understand the situation thoroughly, and to do the work in a practical way. The battlefield for village cadres is the growth of the fields, the smoke from the kitchen stoves, the improvement of living conditions, and the prosperity of cultural life. These are the places that can effectively improve the happiness of the people. The forms filled out by sitting in the office will not fill out a bright future."
He picked up a form from the pile in front of him and said, "Everyone can take a look. This is the tax registration form that the tax office requires each village to fill out."
Then he handed it to the town mayor Cao Qingfeng who was standing beside him, and picked up another one, "This is the crime registration form required by the police station."
"This is the registration form for all village party members required by the Party Building Office."
"This is a statistical form of violations of women's rights that the Women's Federation requires us to fill out. What's the point of asking people to submit this form themselves?"
Huo Qianli couldn't help but curse, then handed the forms over for everyone to circulate.
After hearing this and simply flipping through the tables, everyone immediately understood the root of the matter and also figured out Huo Qianli's attitude.
Cao Qingfeng hesitated for a moment, then said carefully, "Secretary Huo, these matters are mainly due to the fact that our town government has not done a good job. The reason for this situation is mainly due to two considerations. The first is the need for traceable management. In the past, the work of village-level organizations was in the dark, so each department made some weekly reports for this purpose, in order to do a good job of this process management and facilitate future review."
"In addition." Cao Qingfeng paused, "Secretary Huo, you are a member of the county party committee. You should also know that after Secretary Guo took office, the county has also been rectifying its work style and vigorously promoting reforms. However, the higher-level agencies will not do things on their own. The pressure is transmitted layer by layer, and it all falls on the heads of us at the grassroots level."
Xiao Yao also spoke up: "Secretary Huo, it is indeed as Mayor Qingfeng said. Not only that, in the past half month, we have welcomed seven inspections from various city and county departments. The levels and specifications are different, but they all require us to review various materials. This has also invisibly increased the burden on the grassroots."
Xiao Yao's stepping forward eased the direct conflict between Huo Qianli and Cao Qingfeng, turning the issue into a discussion among the entire team.
Huo Qianli said calmly: "There are definitely reasons. Everyone here is definitely not the kind of person who oppresses the people. I absolutely believe this. But the question is, should we allow such a situation?"
He looked around and said, "The superiors have pressure, and it is transmitted to us, so we pass it on to Murakami. In order to live a good life and for that hope, Murakami gritted his teeth and endured it. Let's not talk about whether they can bear it or whether they will complain. Their energy is limited, and their ability is limited!"
Huo Qianli knocked on the table. "If they spend all their energy on these forms, how much time will they have left to care about whether the crops in the village are growing well, how the villagers are eating, how the people in the village are getting along harmoniously, and how our policies are being implemented?"
"Comrades, these are the things that our village cadres should do!"
There was silence at the conference table. Many people couldn't help but pick up their cigarettes and smoked them silently.
The beating Mars is the most active presence around the conference table.
It was the mayor Cao Qingfeng who finally broke the silence. He said with a somewhat unpleasant expression: "Secretary Huo, I didn't do my job well. I apologize to you on behalf of the town government."
