I still remember a saying that goes like this: Too abnormal is a monster. [`Novel`] Judging from today's situation, the situation of this meeting is too abnormal. You know, this is a government executive meeting
, in addition to the members of our team, the meeting also included the secretaries-general of the municipal government office, and in addition the departments involved in the report. As a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, Jiang Shanan has been in officialdom for a long time and should understand the rules of officialdom.
According to the rules, he challenged me here in front of everyone and embarrassed me. Is this normal?
And I had noticed earlier that his words seemed to be directed at Secretary Chen. Although Mayor Wen criticized him at that time, his tone was very gentle, and I felt that the kind of criticism he had made towards Jiang Shanan was actually
It's more like an encouragement.
In view of the close relationship between the two of them, I have to suspect that Jiang Shanan's targeting of me today was the result of discussion between the two of them.
Therefore, I feel that it is meaningless to reason with him, and I don’t bother to tangle with people like Jiang Shanan. Although I don’t know Jiang Shanan very well, I have heard some things about him since I got here.
rumors.
This man was the director of the Municipal Water Conservancy Bureau before he became the deputy mayor, and he is very powerful in the local area. It is said that he has shares in several nightclubs in the city. In addition, his father is also the boss of a construction company.
.[
In addition, I also heard something about him: when he was the director of the Water Conservancy Bureau, he had an affair with the daughter-in-law of a deputy director of the Municipal People's Congress, which resulted in the breakdown of the family. However, he later broke up the family.
That woman abandoned him. It is said that before he was elected as deputy mayor to the National People's Congress, the deputy director made it known that such a person would never be allowed to be elected as deputy mayor. But later Jiang Shanan still weakly
He was elected with more than half of the votes cast. The reason was that someone gave each deputy to the National People's Congress a suit worth thousands of yuan.
I don't doubt this
The authenticity of the rumors, but I think this is not the most critical factor. The most critical factor is the organizational intention - why did the organization let this person participate in the election as the deputy mayor candidate? Obviously, Jiang Shanan's background is Wenshi City
Mayor Wen's background was that of the provincial governor at that time. Perhaps it was because of this that Jiang Shan'an hesitated to stand on the same front as Mayor Wen.
Others say that Jiang Shanan has a characteristic, that is, he is generous and loyal. This is also the main factor that allows him to have a certain influence in the local area and prosper in his career. Perhaps it is this reason that makes Wenshi
The elder has great trust in him.
But I think there is still a problem here: Just imagine, how many people today are so generous that they don’t care about their own future? Doesn’t Jiang Shanan realize what the consequences of following someone Wen to fight Secretary Chen will be? No,
He is not a fool, he should know how risky it is. You know, the secretary of any place has absolute power.
Unless there is one situation - Mayor Wen has caught Jiang Shanan's fatal handle, so he has to submit obediently. In other words, he can only tie himself to Mayor Wen's car and can only fight with him.
He advances and retreats together, prospering and losing together.
At this moment, when I heard Jiang Shanan say that, I immediately laughed, and then went to Mayor Wen and said: "Mayor Wen, don't you think Mayor Jiang's words are ridiculous? The municipal government held an executive meeting.
What is the purpose of this meeting? Isn’t it just to let everyone study the problem together? My understanding is that at such a meeting, each of us should study every problem from the overall perspective of the city and put forward our truest opinions.
, the purpose is to make scientific decisions so that everything the government does can satisfy the people and is conducive to promoting the city's economic development. Of course, there is a trade-off issue in some things, such as whether our decisions are for the present or for the future
In the future, no matter what, we must think about issues from the perspective of the city's political and economic development. Maybe my level is limited and I cannot see the far-reaching significance of some issues, but I can guarantee one thing, that is, every word of mine
They are all said after careful consideration, and they are also private. For example, on the first topic we studied today, didn’t I also put forward different opinions? In the end, didn’t Mayor Wen also affirm my opinions?
No? I think it’s normal for a meeting like this to have different voices. If everyone says hello, I’m good, everyone, and they’re unwilling to speak out what’s really in their hearts, then is it still necessary to hold such a meeting?
Instead of doing this, it would be better to ask Mayor Wen to sign directly and make a final decision. But in this way, those of us who are deputies will feel more relaxed, and we don’t have to take any responsibility for some major things. Mayor Wen, if
If you also think that I shouldn’t raise objections to some questions, then that’s fine. Starting from the next government executive meeting, I won’t speak.”
Mayor Wen immediately said to me very seriously: "Mayor Feng, what are you talking about?! Huh?! You are the executive deputy mayor. Can you say such irresponsible words casually? Who can say no?
I asked you to speak? I would like to ask you, how long have you been in our Shangjiang City? Do you fully understand the situation here? Not to mention other things, it is the project of the Municipal Government Conference Center. At that time, the Municipal Party Committee, the Municipal Government
Do you know the government's decision-making process on this matter? Since you don't know, can you guarantee that your opinion is correct? There are many difficulties in local work, and we use a flexible way to deal with them. This is also
It's a necessity. This is not the first time we have borrowed the wages of the city's employees. We must believe that our employees are still very aware and understand the difficulties of our city government. Mayor Yin, I am also here
I would like to remind you to pay attention in the future. You are the deputy mayor in charge of culture and health. You should not just look at problems from the perspective of the area you are in charge of, but think from the overall perspective. What will others do after your speeches today are spread?
Do you think? You are the only one in our city government who cares about the grassroots employees, while our other deputy mayors are all hard-hearted and weak-minded officials who don’t care about the lives of the people below? This is unreasonable! I am the top leader of the city government and after fully listening to everyone
It is my right to make a decision on each issue after the deputy mayor’s opinions. At the same time, I am also willing to take responsibility for my decision. I have already made a decision, what other opinions do you have? If everyone is like this
, If we are dissatisfied with each of our issues because it harms the interests of the area we are in charge of, how can we make decisions? Don't always think that your own ideas are correct, and other people's ideas are wrong, Mr. Mao
I also said something: The truth is often in the hands of a few people. In ancient times, those so-called critics often threatened the emperor with death. As a result, they themselves ended up with a good reputation as an upright official and an upright minister, but in the end, they ruined the emperor's reputation.
His reputation has been ruined, and he is considered a coward by future generations. Of course, I am not using the emperor to describe myself, but the principle is the same. Mayor Yin, Mayor Feng, and everyone here, why can't you
Think about it for a moment? We are members of the same team, so our goals should be the same, right? We are all for the economic development of Shangjiang City, and we are all for the people of Shangjiang City. I have been in Shangjiang City for so many years
Okay, please tell me, what is one thing about which someone in my article is considering his own selfish interests? What did you say, Mayor Feng? Every word of yours is made after careful consideration.
It was said without any selfish motives. Do the rest of us just say it casually? The rest of us have selfish motives? Mayor Feng, the fact that you said such a thing shows that you did not think carefully about what you said.
, which is an irresponsible statement. Mayor Feng, what do you think?"
Although I clearly knew that his words had secretly changed my concept and completely disrupted my logical relationship, I found that I couldn't defend myself at all, and at this moment I discovered that I was still speaking during the speech.
I was so impulsive that he grabbed my braid so that I could not defend myself.
Therefore, no matter how angry I was, there was nothing I could do about it. I said: "Mayor Wen, I don't mean that. But I still stick to my opinion. First, I did not say that the conference center project is not good.
If the construction should continue. Secondly, I still think that there may be other better ways to solve the construction funding problem of this project, but this will take time. Of course, since Mayor Wen has made a decision on this matter, I
Execution is. Fourth, regarding the Shangjiang Winery, I have specifically gone to this company to conduct research. I still think this matter needs to be cautious. However, I will not refuse to implement it because of my different personal opinions.
Mayor Wen’s final decision.”
Mayor Wen nodded and said, "Okay then. Let's move on to the next topic."
At this time, Jiang Shanan suddenly said: "Mayor Feng, I would like to remind you, don't think that you have a background, rely on your youth and think that you have a bright future and go against the mayor. This is not good for you.
Mayor Feng, I don’t mean any harm. To be honest, I was similar to you when I was young. I never considered the consequences of doing things or the feelings of others. Mayor Feng, please don’t treat me like this.
Do you mistake your good intentions for a donkey’s liver and lungs?”
Originally, after Mayor Wen made certain concessions, I didn't want to continue to worry about the previous matters, but I didn't expect that Jiang Shanan would suddenly say such a sentence, and my heart suddenly started to get angry, "
Mayor Jiang, please tell me on which matter did I go against Mayor Wen? Isn’t the attitude I expressed just now the proper attitude for a deputy mayor like me? I have said it more than once, although I
There are different opinions, but I will still obey Mayor Wen’s final decision. So Mayor Jiang, please tell me, what should I say so that you will think that I am not going against Mayor Wen? Also, what do you mean?
I am a person with a background, so please tell me, don’t you have any background? How about this, Mayor Jiang, let’s report to the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee and request to resign? I would like to take a look,
Is it you who can’t let it go or I who can’t let it go?!”
He was silent for a moment.
Mayor Wen suddenly became furious, "What happened to you two today? Are you still talking like a deputy mayor of the Communist Party? You are not principled at all! This is unreasonable! Today's meeting will not be held.
!The meeting is dismissed!”
Immediately, he packed up his things and left the conference room with a livid face. Everyone in the conference room looked at each other.
Jiang Shanan went out next. He sneered a few times when he went out.
The deputy mayor next to me sighed and said to me: "Mayor Feng, why are you doing this?"
I said angrily: "Am I wrong?" [
He came and patted me on the shoulder, "Brother, are things in this officialdom as simple as right and wrong?"
I smiled bitterly and said, "I know it's not that simple, but I also know one thing, that is, I never take the initiative to attack others, but that doesn't mean I'm such an easy person to bully. Don't you think so, Mayor Yuan?"
"
He is the deputy mayor in charge of agriculture and a good man. He also sighed and said: "Yes, you are right. I was wrong."
Everyone who had not left laughed.
I immediately stood up and left. I didn't want some people to spread rumors that I continued today's meeting after the mayor left.
When I went out, I saw Mayor Yin smiling bitterly at me and shaking his head. I pretended not to see it.
After returning to the office, I sat alone for a few minutes. I felt very depressed. At the same time, I also felt that I was still a bit talkative in the meeting today. Only then did I remember that I seemed to be the most talkative person in today's meeting.
, and as Jiang Shanan said, it seems that I am really putting forward different opinions on every issue today. So at this moment, I have to think about a question: Do I value myself too much?
This is the first government executive meeting Jiang City has attended? So much so that I have an excessive desire to express myself?
I feel that I do have a great desire for expression. In fact, my desire for expression is also a sign of low self-esteem. I am indeed not familiar with local affairs, but I don't want to be looked down upon.
From this, I can analyze that there is probably another reason why Jiang Shanan targeted me like that today: he can't stand my self-righteousness.
This seems to include Mayor Yuan. His sentence, Mayor Feng, why are you doing this? Doesn’t his sentence also contain a well-intentioned criticism of me?
Thinking of this, I suddenly felt uneasy in my heart. Then I walked out of the office door and walked directly to Mayor Wen's office. After knocking on the door, he said "come in". When I entered, I found that Jiang Shanan was also there.
in.
Jiang Shanan ignored me and looked ugly. Mayor Wen asked me calmly: "Mayor Feng, are you okay?"
At this moment, I suddenly had the urge to withdraw, especially when I saw Jiang Shanan's ugly face. But I restrained my urge and entered his office.
, and then walked up to the two of them, "Mayor Wen, maybe I said something too rashly at the meeting today, and my attitude towards Mayor Jiang was not very good. So, I apologize to both of you here.
.In addition, I also want to say something to you two: I, Feng Xiao, am only talking about things from a work perspective. I really have no other ideas, and I have no intention of quarreling with Mayor Jiang. Mayor Wen, Mayor Jiang
Sir, no matter what you think in your heart, these are entirely my inner words. If I did anything wrong or said something wrong, I ask you both to forgive me."
Jiang Shanan still didn't speak, but I noticed that the muscles on his face twitched a few times. However, a faint smile appeared on Mayor Wen's face, "Mayor Feng, everyone is not particularly calm today. Maybe it's just recently.
There are too many things that are not going well. I am the mayor, so I shouldn’t get too excited. Forget it, everyone should pay attention in the future. It’s okay. You can go and do your work. Mayor Jiang and I will discuss something."
I immediately turned around and left, and suddenly found Secretary-General Lu standing at the door of the office at some point. He smiled at me and nodded. I gave him a wry smile and left.
When I was outside the office, I heard the phone ringing inside, and I hurried in to answer it. The call was from Mayor Yin, "Mayor Feng, I thought you were not in the office."
I am still a little annoyed because I feel that I have been too influenced by her today. Although I actually think that she did nothing wrong and her integrity was also shown in today's meeting, I still feel that I was in the meeting at that time.
I regretted not being calm enough at the meeting. I was happy to vent my lack of calmness during the meeting, but it was not good for such things to be spread, and it also seriously affected the relationship between myself and the team members.
As a person in the officialdom, there should be no causal relationship between youth and vigour. I was thinking: Maybe I haven't fully adapted since I changed from the top position to the deputy position now.
But Mayor Yin is the Communist Party secretary after all, and she is a very good person, so I still said to her very politely: "I just went to Mayor Wen's place. I was not calm enough about what happened today. Now my
I feel very ashamed inside.”
She said: "What are you ashamed of? Some people are like that. They think they are snobbish in Shangjiang City, so they don't take others seriously. I am also a local. Don't I know what kind of person Jiang is?
?Using employees’ wages to pay for his father’s project, only he can do such a thing! I really don’t understand why these people are so bold.”
I was very surprised: Could it be that the project was done by Mayor Jiang’s father? No way? No matter how stupid he is, he wouldn’t dare to do that? I hurriedly said: “Mayor Yin, let’s not talk about this on the phone.
Are things okay?"
She immediately smiled and said: "Mayor Feng, I have a hot temper. Don't be surprised. I will come to your office right away."[
I don’t think this is good. After all, today’s meeting has just ended. If the two of us are together, others will think that we are engaging in a clique. I said: “Mayor Yin, if you don’t have anything else that is particularly urgent, we will wait for another day.
Let’s talk about this matter again. Some things have passed and I don’t want to talk about them behind my back anymore.”
She asked me: "Do you really want to allocate the wages of all employees in the city this month to that project?"
I smiled bitterly and said, "Mayor Wen made the decision, and I can only execute it. I made it very clear at the meeting today."
She hurriedly said: "But, how can I face those grassroots workers? I used to say that I would temporarily lend everyone a month's salary, but later it turned into a donation. In the past, it was for building roads and bridges. The workers felt that
It’s understandable, but this time the situation is different? It’s about repairing the conference center! I’m very worried that this matter will cause everyone’s dissatisfaction.”
I was very surprised, "Didn't I say it was a loan? How could it be turned into a donation?"
She said: "The executive meeting of the government talks about borrowing, but the heads of the units below talk to employees about donations. Which department head dares to tell his employees that it is borrowing? Then he will pay it back by himself.
?”
I immediately understood: This is simply deception. Although the result of the study by the government executive meeting is that it is a loan, everyone knows in their hearts that the money will not be repaid, but the responsibility is borne by the heads of the various departments below.
That's all. No wonder Mayor Yin is so angry.
I couldn't understand why some people were so courageous, let alone why Mayor Wen would agree to do that. I sighed and said, "Mayor Yin, you and I are both deputy officers, and there are some things that we can't do anything about.
"
She said: "You are a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Committee. Isn't there a Municipal Committee above the municipal government? You have to raise this matter at the Standing Committee."
I smiled bitterly and said: "Today's meeting has been like this. I don't want others to think that I am deliberately trying to make trouble with someone. Didn't Mayor Yuan already remind me? Why bother? Yes, why should I?
?”
She immediately said: "No, I have to talk to you about this matter face to face. Mayor Feng, I was very happy when I heard the news that you were coming to us as the executive deputy mayor, because I know you
situation, I hope you can change something, but why are you so timid and fearful?"
I smiled bitterly and hung up the phone, which was considered a kind of agreement on my part. But now I also wanted to talk to her, because I found that I really didn't know much about the situation here.
She came quickly, and as soon as she came in, she said to me: "Mayor Feng, no, you should talk about this matter at the Standing Committee, and I don't believe you have the heart to set aside employees' wages like that.
, you will also go to the countryside from now on, let me see how you face those people below."
I didn’t want to talk about this matter directly with her, because it was really a headache. I asked: “Is that project really done by Mayor Jiang’s father?”
She nodded, "Although it was apparently the project won by another company, everyone knows that it was the company his father was affiliated with."
I shook my head and said, "Where's the evidence? You can't talk about such things casually."
She said: "The project managers are all from his father's company. Do I need to say more?"
Although I think what she said is probably true, I still shake my head, "Maybe that company hired these people to help manage it. These are two issues. Mayor Yin, this cannot be done without definite evidence.
Just say it casually. And I don’t believe that Mayor Jiang is so courageous, and Mayor Wen will not condone such a thing. Also, since Mayor Jiang dared to propose a month’s salary loan to employees at the meeting,
, I don’t think he would have that much courage no matter what. Besides, if the people below really get into trouble, wouldn’t he be in danger? I don’t think he would take such a risk.
risk."
She smiled faintly and said: "From ancient times to the present, how many officials are really afraid of the common people? What's the point of deducting one month's salary from employees? Didn't the yamen in ancient times add tax items at will? They all know something about it.
, if the common people were not desperate, they would never rise up in rebellion. What's more, many of our employees rely on this job to support their families, and they are not willing to lose their jobs for this one month's salary.
"
Her words immediately reminded me of the story I had heard told to me by someone I didn’t know. I didn’t know whether it was Lin Yi or Lin Yu, or maybe someone else.
In the late Qing Dynasty, after dismissing Yuan Shikai from his post, Zaifeng personally acted as the generalissimo to command the imperial guards and took control of military and political power. Later, Zaifeng appointed several of his younger brothers as ministers of navy, army and military consultation. After taking
After taking the above major military and political measures, Zaifeng thought that the situation was under control, so he dismissed Li Shunde, director of the Jinpu Railway General Office, and other Han officials from their posts, and once again tried to replace them with Manchus. Zaifeng sought Zhang Zhidong's opinion on this
At that time, Zhang said: "No, the public opinion does not belong." Zaifeng insisted, and Zhang added: "The public opinion does not belong, and it will change drastically." Zaifeng said disapprovingly: "There are soldiers." Zhang Zhidong's words can be said, in
After Zaifeng left, he sighed: "I didn't want to hear the news of the country's subjugation." Zhang Zhidong's prediction was correct. Zaifeng, who refused political reform and insisted on suppressing Han officials, and the regime he represented, have been under attack since Yuan Shikai was deposed.
The complete abandonment of Han officials. This incident can illustrate a problem: the most important thing for a successful politician is to understand the balance of political forces in his era, as well as the political aspirations of the vast majority of people in that era. Anyone who despises public opinion or tries to rely on
Any attempt to use personal political power to change the social and political power structure is doomed to fail.
You know, soldiers are actually the sons of the common people.
It is a pity that the rulers of the past dynasties believed too much in the power in their hands. Isn't every major social change and dynasty change in history the result of bureaucrats ignoring the political demands of the majority of people and despising public opinion?
It is a pity that history will always repeat itself. No, to be precise, history will not repeat itself, but it should be: history is always surprisingly similar.
This is a vicious circle that cannot be escaped for thousands of years. What is causing this? And if we study history seriously, we will find that many things in history are repeated and reincarnated day after day, year after year.
With.
The emperors faced the entire empire and had to maintain the operation of the entire state machine. Of course, they could not do without the bureaucrats at all levels. The bureaucrats had to help the emperor herd sheep and cattle, so bureaucrats were also called "herders" in a certain period.
For example, Xuzhou animal husbandry, Yizhou animal husbandry...
These "shepherds", large and small, may not all have the same thoughts as the emperor. They may be violating the emperor's imperial edict of "carrying destiny to heaven", or they may form different factions in the court, forming so-called "party struggles", such as during wars.
The War Faction, the Peace Faction, the Eunuch Party and the Donglin Party of the Ming Dynasty, etc. Generally speaking, a smart emperor will not let one faction become powerful alone, but will keep the strength of the two factions balanced. If it is broken
With this kind of balance, if one faction becomes powerful and has real power, the emperor will become a puppet. If the two factions maintain a balance, then the emperor's status and power will be consolidated to the greatest extent. Once one party wants to fight for imperial power, the emperor will use the other party to fight for imperial power.
One faction comes to contain the power of this faction, thereby maintaining its absolute authority and rule. Isn't this the case in today's society?
In "Water Margin", after Song Jiang went to Liangshan, he gradually took away the power of King Chao Tian and finally replaced him. This was actually the result of the imbalance between the old and new forces in Liangshan. Not every emperor could completely control the situation, and there would always be a few who appeared from time to time.
The powerful minister came out. The powerful minister Cao Cao appeared, so he took the emperor to order the princes, and then Cao Pi usurped the Han Dynasty. Later, the Sima family became prosperous, so they followed the same example, and the Jin Dynasty succeeded the Wei Dynasty. What a similar history! There were also emperors who took over the powerful ministers.
Those who were governed were Yu Wenyong of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, who had Yu Wenhu in charge, and then he took charge of it himself. Kangxi had Ao Bai put in charge, and then he took charge of it himself.
History is always strange, and what has happened will always happen again. For example, Comrade Yang Jian, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, robbed the country from the orphans and widows of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and Zhao Kuangyin, Taizu of the Song Dynasty, robbed the country from the orphans and widows of the Later Zhou Dynasty.
The strange thing is that the two dynasties that were robbed of their kingdoms had the title of "Zhou". Before they were replaced, they were poor orphans and widowed mothers. Generally speaking, the emperors of a dynasty can be divided into three categories: Entrepreneurship
Emperors, Shoucheng emperors and subjugated emperors. When a dynasty was just established, the entrepreneurial emperors generally worked hard, recuperated, and worked hard to govern. After the dynasty was stabilized and consolidated, the Shoucheng emperors began to sleep on the prosperous foundation created by the late emperor, and were proud and complacent.
, and finally the subjugated emperor appeared, lived in debauchery, implemented tyranny, and ruined the great country.
After the Qin and Han Dynasties, the lifespan of a relatively long dynasty is generally two hundred to three hundred years. The Western Han and Eastern Han Dynasties each existed for about two hundred years; the Tang Dynasty lasted for about three hundred years; the Ming Dynasty lasted for 276 years; and the Qing Dynasty lasted for 200 years.
Sixty-seven years, why are the lifespans of dynasties so similar? Why did the founding emperor confer the title of king on his descendants, so why were there repeated vassal cuts and rebellions? The Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms of the Western Han Dynasty, the Rebellion of the Eight Kings of the Western Jin Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty's Jingnan
Servant, isn't it the same play?
Not to mention the big recurring events of changing dynasties, there are some same phenomena in different dynasties. For example, in each dynasty and each generation, the emperors lived deep in the palace, and they were often surrounded by beauties from the harem,
Either they were eunuchs, so the political forces represented by relatives and eunuchs derived from these two things emerged. Because the ministers were too far away from the emperor, the emperor had to rely on the people around him. If he did not rely on relatives, he would have to rely on eunuchs. The demise of the Western Han Dynasty
Mainly due to the dictatorship of his relatives and the usurpation of the Han Dynasty by Wang Mang. In fact, Wang Mang was a man of good personal quality and cultivation. His goal was to realize the ideal communism described in ancient books. As a result, the reform failed and the war failed, and he became a person remembered by history.
The scolded thief. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, the dictatorships of foreign relatives and eunuchs appeared one after another. The power of the two declined and the cycle of reincarnation began again and again. Later, "ten permanent servants disrupted the government" appeared. Then in order to kill the eunuchs, Dong Zhuo went to Beijing, and the world was in chaos.
.It can be found that the Eastern Han Dynasty died directly at the hands of eunuchs, but eunuchs still appeared in later generations to disrupt the government. Even the illustrious emperors of the Tang Dynasty were poisoned to death by eunuchs. In the Ming Dynasty, there was a great eunuch who established the emperor Liu Jin at the age of 9,000, and later appeared
Wei Zhongxian, these guys are all messing around in the court. Why did the scourge of eunuchs appear repeatedly in history? There is also the dictatorship of Empress Lu, Wu Zetian proclaimed emperor, and Empress Dowager Cixi listened behind the curtain. How similar are these? Why is history repeating itself like this?
?
"The cunning rabbit dies, the lackeys are cooked, the birds are gone, the good bow is hidden, the enemy country is destroyed, and the counselor is dead." Why do the events of massacre of heroes repeat themselves repeatedly in history? The most powerful massacres of heroes are probably Liu Bang and Zhu Yuanzhang. Why
It happened that these two emperors both fought hard to become emperors from commoners? Why were the emperors who were not from commoners not as good at killing heroes as Liu and Zhu who were from commoners? Why is history repeating itself?
History will not repeat itself, but it will always be surprisingly similar. This is what Mark Twain said. And even today, this sentence is still applicable.
Recall that more than a hundred years ago, Emperor Guangxu launched the Reform Movement of 1898, which was ended by the Empress Dowager Cixi. Some people always accuse Cixi of being reactionary, but if you calm down and think about it, Guangxu and others frequently dismissed officials and carried out radical reforms. In fact, it was
Very isolated.
They lacked a certain amount of mobilization and strong support from the bureaucracy. And their reforms relied on a few figures with reform ideas, so there was no consensus within the group, let alone the support of the masses.
Politicians with ideals, even if the ideals they pursue are really lofty, still need secular support, because reforms touch the actual interests of others, and these people may not necessarily have the same ideas as you.
When it comes to concrete interests, they will temporarily abandon their ideas and pursue interests.
We see that when reform fails, people always lose their jobs. When reform succeeds, those who reap the fruits are not necessarily those who adhere to their ideals. Those powerful people who follow the general trend of reform, seek benefits, and attack others are the ultimate beneficiaries.
This is the cruelty of history.
Similarly, after Cixi's death, the young emperor Puyi ascended the throne. Puyi's father Zaifeng became the regent to supervise the country and continued to implement the New Deal. He forced Yuan Shikai to retire. Because after Cixi's death, Zaifeng could not control this powerful figure.
Strengthening centralization of power is correct, but removing some powerful political figures and using mediocre royals to govern the country will make it difficult to implement the New Deal.
Authority is very important. But the real thing behind authority is actually political strength. Zaifeng did not possess either of these. Therefore, although the Qing Dynasty carried out New Deal reforms, it was eventually overthrown. This is the weird thing about history.
Not to mention looking at such problems from a national level, why is our small Shangjiang City not like this? Judging from the current performance of Mayor Wen and Jiang Shanan, is it not a desperate act for them to do this? I
I thought: Maybe they have been kidnapped by some kind of interest, otherwise they would not do such a thing.
I said: "The municipal party committee should know about this matter soon, and I also believe that Mayor Wen will report the matter. As I said, I am only his deputy, so I can only carry out the executive meeting of the government.
The final decision. Mayor Yin, I’m sorry, please understand me.”
She sighed and said: "You mean, as long as it is Mayor Wen's decision, you will implement it conditionally?"
I nodded, "Execution is one thing, but I will still reserve my own opinions. Mayor Yin, isn't that the same for you?"
She shook her head and said, "What I mean is, I'm from the Democratic Party anyway. I don't have as many restrictions as you."
At this time, the phone on my desk rang. It was Mayor Wen calling, "Mayor Feng, please come over here."
I agreed repeatedly, and then said to Mayor Yin: "I'm sorry, Mayor Wen asked me to come over."
She shook her head and said: "Hey! It's difficult for you too. I won't say more. By the way, I also want to talk to Mayor Wen about something. Let's go together."
After entering Mayor Wen's office, I found that Jiang Shanan was no longer there, but Secretary-General Lu was still inside.
Mayor Wen asked me and Mayor Yin to sit down and then said: "Mayor Feng, I just thought about it and it is really not appropriate to use employee wages. I have to thank you and Mayor Yin for reminding me about this matter. At present, we
Shangjiang City is in troubled times, and we really shouldn’t intensify social conflicts. So I want to discuss with you and see if we can use the funds for bridge construction first?”
I was suddenly in a dilemma: Under such circumstances, should I still disagree with him?
After thinking about it, I said: "But the problem is that the bridge construction company has also been urging us for payment recently. This time we have to allocate tens of millions immediately. The next allocation will be half a year later, and then this money can be replenished."
Do you want to go on? This is a special fund for key projects in the province... Of course, if you decide, I have no objection. As long as you sign, I will immediately ask the financial department to transfer the money to the conference center project."
His face immediately turned ugly, "You are the executive deputy mayor, and you are in charge of such matters. Why do you still need my signature? Am I the kind of person who refuses to acknowledge what I have said? Now Mayor Yin and Secretary Lu
The president is here, and the two of them can testify to what I say. Don’t you even have the most basic trust in me?"
I was even more embarrassed, "Well, Mayor Wen, if the municipal government office writes the decision you just made into the meeting minutes, I will implement it immediately. Mayor Wen, please understand me, this matter is really too serious."
It’s too big, I can’t afford it if something happens.”
Mayor Wen's face was frighteningly ugly. He snorted coldly and said, "In the final analysis, you still don't trust me. Forget it, Secretary-General Lu, just do what Mayor Feng said."
I smiled bitterly and said, "I'm sorry, Mayor Wen, please understand. I'm a timid person, so I'm sorry."
Mayor Wen ignored me and immediately asked Mayor Yin, "What's the matter with you?"
I shook my head and immediately left his office.
When I returned to my office, I found Secretary-General Lu coming in. I felt very unhappy and asked, "Secretary Lu, is there something wrong?"
He said: "Mayor Feng, I will sort out today's meeting minutes and show them to you. Okay?"
I nodded, "Mayor Wen please take a look first."
He said: "Okay." Then he whispered to me: "Mayor Yin's father's 70th birthday is this weekend. Are you free to attend? Mayor Wen will definitely go, because Mayor Yin's mother
She is Mayor Wen’s aunt.”
I looked at him... At this moment, no one can know how much shock I felt in my heart!
Secretary-General Lu then said: "Mayor Feng, I'm going to prepare the meeting minutes right away."
I nodded towards him and whispered: "Thank you, Secretary Lu."
He smiled at me and left. I suddenly felt like I was in a dream, because I really couldn't believe that the outcome of the matter was like this, and if it hadn't been for the reminder he just made, I would definitely have fallen into the trap set by these people.
in the trap.
