This is the first time for Yuan Zili to study at the Central Party School. Strictly speaking, Yuan Zili has very few opportunities to study. After every promotion, he cannot leave because of his critical position. This study is no exception.
But as mentioned above, Yuan Zili had a great reason to attend the study. There was no more eating and drinking, no more banquets between each other, everyone adhered to the schedule, and the professors who gave lectures had extraordinary theoretical qualities, which gave Yuan
The self-reliance left a deep impression.
Yuan Zili's main concern is academic reports. When he arrives at the Central Party School, they are all the elites of society. It can be said that many future leaders of the Republic are likely to study here. Everyone has a high theoretical level and comprehension ability.
Qiang, all the lecturers are professors, including professors from the Central Party School and professors from universities. Therefore, if you want to publish an academic report here, it has no weight, so don’t even think about it.
The first person to entertain Yuan Zili was Li Mingwei.
On this day, Yuan Zili was resting in the office. After Yun Haiyi and Bingqian returned to Xilin City, Yuan Zili usually stayed in the office. He didn't have to worry about eating and drinking. Why not be happy? Studying in the party school is better than studying in the party school.
Xilin City is still a lot easier. After all, he is not at work. Qian Changjiang calls every two days, mainly to talk about his work situation. By the way, Ge Zhisheng, Li Li, Huang Liying and Zhang Dongtao also call frequently.
, reporting on the work situation, Yuan Zili also gave himself a holiday and a good rest. If Qian Changjiang takes charge of the overall situation, there will be no problems. Qian Changjiang is famous for his stability. Yuan Zili also felt that if he leaves Xilin City and no longer serves as secretary,
It is very likely that Qian Changjiang took over as the municipal party committee secretary. It is estimated that Qian Changjiang also thought of this level, so when making decisions, he was very careful and studied repeatedly.
"Secretary Yuan, you are now a big leader, you have become very assertive, you have come to Beijing, and you want ordinary people like us to come and visit you."
Hearing the words, Yuan Zili stood up quickly. He was very familiar with Li Mingwei's voice.
"Li Mingwei, you are already quite old, but you still speak so powerfully and look aggressive. It seems that your true nature is hard to change."
The two started a debate before they even saw each other. Li Mingwei has matured a lot. He now works in the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and specializes in research work. Because he has been exposed to many actual national conditions, he is completely different from his previous radical attitude.
"Secretary Yuan, I am not a rich man. Please don't dislike it if I invite you to Quanjude for roast duck."
"Stop talking about this. You know the style of study at the Central Party School. No one cares about eating and drinking."
"Yes, the Central Party School has a rigorous style of study, but this is also what it should be. I have learned about grassroots Party schools. Due to various reasons, it is difficult to make progress. The teaching content has not been improved for a long time, and it is inevitable that students will be bored.
So I fell into the misunderstanding that learning is necessary, but people couldn’t listen and had to find other things to do. But the Central Party School is different. If there are no strict requirements for cultivating senior leaders, wouldn’t it be ridiculous?”
"Li Mingwei, do you know what I was thinking about, that debate between us in Huaiyang City?"
"Haha, what are you talking about? You were young at that time and didn't understand the reality. I took it for granted. How can I compare with you? You came up from the grassroots level. Now I can't even compare with you. You
His theoretical level and practical ability are extraordinary.”
"Okay, don't promote me. It's useless. I can't promote you to your official position."
I have eaten at Quanjude Yuan Zili many times. The price is not very expensive. Compared with Beijing hotels, it is very cheap.
"To be honest, I haven't systematically studied your research results over the years. Let me tell you about them."
"Come on, you won't listen to those big words. You have said more than me. Since you asked, I will tell you the truth and what is useful to you. In officialdom, there are only a few words, crawl, go
Climbing up, although it sounds unpleasant to say, is the actual situation. I held the position of county magistrate thinking of secretary, held the position of secretary thinking of mayor, then became the provincial leader, then went to Beijing, and finally in this process
It takes time. Of course, in this process, you must have enough ability to support it.”
"This doesn't sound right to me."
"Haha, not many people like to listen to the vernacular. They often have a halo around them. For example, when I say that soldiers who don't want to be generals are not good soldiers, everyone likes to hear it. But the actual situation is like this. The higher you get to the top,
The harder it is to hear the truth, climbing up is not a derogatory term. When we face steep mountains, not everyone can climb them. In real life and work, there are many such mountains.
, There are mountains in front of you, and if they are mountains, you have to climb them, and you have to overcome the mountains one after another. How to climb requires a lot of knowledge. You have already been very successful, so I won’t say more."
Yuan Zili suddenly thought of the principles of growing vegetables mentioned by Xu Yisong and the theory mentioned by Li Mingwei. They were both very common and essential philosophical principles.
"What you said makes sense, but you have overlooked one thing, which is the real purpose and motivation to climb up. Some people have beautiful ideals when they first start, but change their minds midway. Some people have ulterior motives in the first place, but
Such people are more likely to succeed because they know how to balance, how to seek advantages and avoid disasters, and how to find shortcuts."
"What you are talking about is the next level. Judging from the current actual situation, this is unavoidable. It cannot be avoided all over the world. It is just reflected in different degrees. This involves the issue of faith we are talking about. Old
The ideas of a generation of revolutionaries are basically nowhere to be found in today's society, because society has progressed and completely changed. If any leader's family is poorly clothed, living in poverty and poverty, not having enough food and clothing, everything is...
For the sake of others, such a person may be classified as an alien in today's society, or the leader has abandoned his family and found a new love."
"What you said is still a bit extreme."
"Haha, it's just an example. Don't take it seriously. Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. I finally relaxed and can eat in peace. I keep talking about these problems and I have lost my appetite."
Li Mingwei's drinking personality has not changed. He and Yuan Zili each have a bottle of wine. Lao Ma has to drive and cannot drink. Tian Lei doesn't drink well, so he simply doesn't drink. As he drinks glasses of white wine, he talks more and becomes bolder.
Now that we are older, as we talk, the topic shifts to romantic matters.
"Today's leaders, who have problems exposed, all have problems in their personal lives. Therefore, the current style problem is basically not a problem. As long as you don't use power for personal gain for your lover, as long as it doesn't cause major problems.
No one will investigate the impact of it. Besides, it’s nothing if it’s something you and I agree on.”
"Haha, Li Mingwei, it looks like you are more than one woman."
"I don't tell lies. Apart from my wife, I have had relationships with other women, but I tell the truth and dare to admit it. Of course, in front of you. If my family finds out, I will fight for you."
"I admire you, I admire you. It's amazing."
"Bullshit, Lao Yuan, if you say you only have one woman, I won't believe it even to death. However, you have a distinguished status and these things need to be kept secret. What a great thing, if you have it, you will have it. You know what women think about it now."
Well, houses, money, cars, it doesn’t matter the age gap, that’s how society is, what can we do?”
"Old Li, you are a bit extreme and tell the truth after drinking."
"I'm not being extreme, I'm seeking truth from facts. Don't think that I'm talking nonsense because I'm drunk. I've never been like this. Lao Yuan, I know many of your views. I carefully read the articles you published in newspapers.
I've seen it, I admire your vision. Compared with Huaiyang City, it's a world of difference. When we talk about the relationship between men and women, everyone avoids it. In fact, some people nowadays no longer avoid this issue, such as
When it comes to rich men, bosses, and the piles of women around them, who will talk about it? No one is interested in talking about it, because there are so many such things, and they are used to it, but officials are different and have different identities. With such things, it is
If someone attacks you, your official position will be insecure, and your own interests will be infringed, so you will do everything possible to keep it secret. This society is very strange. Some officials are much better than rich bosses. It is false to say that no woman likes them. Even some of them have no quality.
There are many women around the nouveau riche, not to mention our government officials."
Yuan Zili was speechless. Li Mingwei was telling the truth. The current social atmosphere can no longer be compared with the past. Everyone's ideas have long been liberalized, and officials have gradually removed the veil of mystery. There are many concerns about the older generation.
Books about leaders have been published, and everyone knows that leaders are human beings and need to live a normal life.
"Lao Yuan, I know you are studying in the party school, so I came to see you specially. Haha, there are some things that can only be said between us brothers."
At this time, Lao Ma and Tian Lei had already left the private room. When Li Mingwei mentioned the relationship between men and women, Lao Ma winked at Tian Lei, and the two of them left the private room and went outside to smoke.
"You came to study at the party school. You must have attracted the attention of the higher-ups, or there is something outstanding about your work. It is not easy to participate in the provincial and ministerial leadership training courses, so I want to congratulate you.
Maybe you will be promoted soon. There is no need to be secretive when talking to each other. In the current situation, the most deadly problem for senior leading cadres is corruption and bribery. Being contaminated by these things is tantamount to being sentenced to death. I
I believe you don't, so I won't talk about this aspect. In fact, my thoughts have not completely changed, but they have been tempered by reality and become much more tactful. I feel that the current situation is more dangerous than before, and the people's attitude toward
The trust in the government and officials is getting lower and lower, and it has reached a critical point. If this situation cannot be effectively improved, the regime may have problems in the future. This is not alarmist. There is a crisis of faith.
Any practical problem is terrible. You are now a provincial and ministerial leader and your influence is limited, but I believe that you will be able to reach the peak. At that time, your main task is not only to develop the economy, not only to make the people live a better life.
If you live a prosperous life, I am afraid that the contradictions and confusions of the system are the biggest problems you face. Now I understand that any system has its own flaws. Many people advocate Western democracy and freedom, but in fact they also have misunderstandings. Those who think that everything in the United States is
All is well, the dream of respecting human rights is nothing but a joke. Problems such as violent crime, racial discrimination and wealth disparity are also chronic diseases in the United States, and they have not been solved well. It is just that the United States relies on its status as a hegemon to constantly shift conflicts.
It's strange. Whenever problems arise in the United States, they can always find things to divert the conflict in time. But China cannot. Although it has been reforming and opening up for so many years, it is actually still relatively closed. Most of the people's attention is still
In the government. So, things in China are very difficult to deal with. The law is on the one hand, human relations are on the other hand, and the ideas passed down for thousands of years are on the other hand. When dealing with all kinds of things, we must consider them comprehensively."
"Old Li, these words can only be said between us. Some words are taboo, especially with your current status and specializing in research, so you'd better be careful."
"I know, thank you for reminding me. You think Beijing is so easy to stay in. This is the political center. Ordinary people are concerned about national affairs. They can hear discussions about leaders anytime and anywhere. Of course, people working in government departments should pay attention.
, I burned some of the conclusions of the research, and I couldn’t say them out because I didn’t have the opportunity. However, there was no scruples between us. After we walked out of this door, we didn’t know anything anymore.”
"Old Li, it's better not to talk about politics. Let's drink, drink."
"Haha, he is the leader after all, senior leaders are different."
Yuan Zili ignored Li Mingwei's sarcasm and filled the bottle with liquor. At this time, getting Li Mingwei drunk was the best way. Otherwise, Li Mingwei didn't know how many opinions he would say. Looking at Li Mingwei's appearance, Yuan Zili knew it was not the case.
It is very satisfactory, and also, studying political theory in China must be in line with the trend.
Li Mingwei couldn't win over Yuan Zili, and he gradually couldn't support him anymore. However, he still had to hold on to his face. Of course Yuan Zili was happy to do so, and his goal was to completely beat Li Mingwei down.
The old horse carried Li Mingwei on his back, and Tian Lei went to check out. Yuan Zili followed behind with shaky steps. The group attracted everyone's attention. Many people laughed and walked out of the restaurant. The cold wind outside made Yuan Zili wake up.
few.
"Forget it, Lao Li is like this. Don't go back. Go to the office to sleep. I called his home and told him to stay with me. He hadn't seen him for a long time and we wanted to have a good chat."
"Secretary Yuan, please watch your step."
Yuan Zili hesitated to speak, staggered and almost fell down. He knew that he was almost "glorious".
"Oh, I still drank too much."
After getting on the bus, Yuan Zili quickly began to doze off. When he returned to the office, Yuan Zili knew nothing. The next morning, Yuan Zili got up a little late and almost was late. (To be continued)
