Honghua Township in Anyang County's open selection of 31 grassroots technical cadres was a first. Following the Prefectural Party Committee's request, Anxiang County and Honghua Township jointly submitted a written report to the Prefectural Party Committee detailing the background, process, and precautions for the selection process. The Anyang County Party School and the Ganhe District Party School also jointly wrote an article and sent it to the Shandong Provincial Internal Reference Bureau.
The Shandong Provincial Internal Reference not only published these two articles, but also published an editorial note on the issue of open cadre selection, as well as a commentary article by a well-known professor at the Shandong Academy of Social Sciences who studies political reform.
For a time, the top leaders of Shandong Province were also very concerned about the issue of open selection of cadres. They specially sent a 10-member working group led by the Organization Department and including social sciences, personnel, party school, and universities to Anyang County and Honghua Township for special research. They conducted in-depth research on registration materials, written examination papers, and interview sites, and then formed a special report to the Provincial Party Committee.
Before New Year's Day, according to the pilot arrangements of the Provincial Party Committee:
Qingniao City publicly recruited 20 section-level cadres from across the country in its subordinate districts, attracting national attention.
This is a later story, so let’s not talk about it for now.
In accordance with the requirements of the county party committee, Honghua Township properly arranged 31 selected cadres. The originally quiet Honghua Township government compound became much more lively with the addition of 31 people.
Sun Zongyuan arranged the use of this group of cadres as follows:
First, they were assigned to various work areas and professional departments to conduct actual research on the basic situation of Honghua Township, and write an investigation report to point out existing problems and rectification suggestions.
If you always fail to see your own shortcomings, outsiders can easily find your problems.
According to the inspection report, Sun Zongyan increased the quantitative assessment of villages and stations from a macro perspective, changed the work style of the agency, and adjusted some unreasonable management measures of various enterprises from a micro perspective to make them more reasonable, scientific and effective.
The problem with the office has been solved, and the next thing that needs to be solved is the rectification of the village team.
In recent years, Honghua Township has developed rapidly in economic and social development, with gratifying results.
But precisely because of the achievements, some existing problems have been covered up by the achievements.
Through the investigation of newly selected cadres in the early stage and Sun Zongyuan's understanding of the actual situation, the village-level leadership team mainly has the following problems:
1. Political instability and mere lip service to opposition to bourgeois liberalization.
2. The trend of eating and drinking is getting worse and worse. As the collective economy of each village improves, village cadres have become hedonistic.
3. Party members are aging. Some teams have not recruited young party members for five or six years, and some of the recruits are children of village cadres. The combat effectiveness of the village team is not strong.
4. Some village cadres are unfair in their work, have a bad reputation, and are suspected of corruption.
…
After communicating with Secretary Zhao Yuncheng and Deputy Secretary Li Yushan, it was decided to launch a one-month campaign of "opposing bourgeois liberalization and carrying out large-scale education and rectification" throughout the township.
After the implementation plan for the activity was put forward, it was carefully studied by the Party Committee, which clearly put forward the requirements of "promoting a group, educating a group, saving a group and dealing with a group", and then submitted to the county party committee for review.
After reading it, Secretary Wang Peizhong asked Honghua Township to come to the county party committee to make a special report.
"Yuncheng, Zongyuan, you two are really capable of making a fuss. You just finished the open selection of cadres a few days ago, and now you are launching a major rectification campaign. What are you thinking?" Secretary Wang Peizhong said, looking at the two of them.
Zhao Yuncheng gave a brief report on the problems existing in the Honghua village-level team. Secretary Wang Peizhong and several deputy secretaries nodded after listening. In fact, they also knew the problems existing in the rural grassroots teams, but there were so many problems that it was difficult to solve them!
After Zhao Yuncheng finished speaking, Secretary Wang Peizhong asked Sun Zongyuan:
"Zongyuan, it was you who came up with this idea again, right? Do you have anything to add?"
Sun Zongyuan quickly stood up and indicated that he had nothing more to add.
A person in the system must always pay attention to his or her behavior and be proactive and not overstep his or her authority. Among county-level cadres, if a deputy secretary supplements the secretary, then it is clearly overstepping one's authority. Leaders who know the rules will think:
"This kid is ignorant and seems to be arrogant because of his talent!"
The deputy secretaries also put forward some very good suggestions for revision of this plan, and the ultimate goal is:
Strengthen the Party’s leadership, promote the economic and social development of Anyang County, and increase people’s income!
Finally, Secretary Wang Peizhong emphasized:
"The problems in Honghua Township are common in rural areas of our county. Our county must also launch a campaign like this to strengthen the Party's leadership in rural areas. In this way, Honghua Township can be used as a pilot as part of our county's campaign to provide experience for the next step of the county-wide campaign!"
In addition to the personnel on the family planning line, all the people in the township formed working groups to guide the "major rectification" work.
In Xianyuzi Village, where Sun Zongyuan Bao Honghua works, the staff include the new Youth League Committee Secretary Wang Hongxia, Organization Office Secretary Lu Yong, and Agricultural Economics Station temporary staff member Zhang Zishen.
Xianyuzi Village has 498 people, 142 households, and 21 party members. The branch secretary Guo Maohai is a 60-year-old revolutionary veteran who walks with a firm step and a loud voice.
When we entered the village, it was a relatively slack season for farming. The crops had already been planted, but the harvest was not yet mature and were in the growing period. According to the township's plan, collective party member study was organized every three days.
Of course, learning always starts at seven or eight o'clock in the evening. Most people are busy working in the fields during the day. After dinner in the evening, they go to the village in groups of three or four with their pipes.
During the day, Sun Zongyuan took them to the fields to chat and exchange ideas with the village party members one by one to understand the situation.
When there was no study session in the evening, Sun Zongyuan would chat and communicate with Guo Maohai.
Guo Maohai is a very upright person. He has a low level of education and only learned a few words in the army. When talking about the situation in the army, Guo Maohai can't stop talking and can talk about revolutionary battle stories for an entire night.
He held a high position in the village and held considerable prestige, but he also exhibited a warlord-like demeanor. He rarely attended meetings and habitually did whatever he was told to do in village affairs. He couldn't articulate why or how he did things, and he frequently cursed over the village loudspeaker, a fact that many people resented.
Another problem is that this village branch has not recruited any new party members in nearly ten years, except for two retired party members. Several activists have been trained for seven or eight years, but every time they are reported as probationary party members, they are not reported on the grounds that they are immature, which has caused dissatisfaction among the party members and the masses below.
There is no plan to replace the more than 400 acres of aging fruit trees in the village. There are more than 80 households raising pigs, but compared with the construction of pig farms in other villages, there is a lack of planning, and there are no larger farmers.
This village is built at the foot of a cliff. The mountain is well greened, but due to the terrain, residential construction is scattered, making life inconvenient for the people.
It is indeed not an easy task to revive this village, and Sun Zongyuan has a headache.
He came to the group company at noon that day, and after having lunch, he lay on the sofa in Xu Rui's office. Xu Rui saw that he was worried about something, so he came over to massage his shoulders and talked about the people and things in the company, which was also a kind of pillow talk.
