Maybe she noticed something was wrong with my expression, so she immediately came to look at me, "Feng Xiao, do you think I have changed a lot? Do you think I shouldn't defend such corruption?"
I couldn't help but nod, "Sister, you are the Organization Minister of the Provincial Party Committee. Although I, Feng Xiao, have many shortcomings, I am not willing to see this country completely rotten like this. I prefer to believe in the organization.
The attitude towards corruption is clear.”
She immediately laughed, "Think about it, do you really have no problems? If Yang Shuguang's incident involves some of your problems, do you still think that is the right thing to do? Feng Xiao, you
It is indeed relatively clean economically, but what about other problems? So think about it, if people like you and me have problems, wouldn't our country be even more hopeless? The most critical problem in our country is
The shortcomings of the system, in the current system, it is difficult for officials, no matter how aware they are, to be independent. You and I have done a good enough job, and there are many other officials who should be like you and me, so we
We should learn to protect ourselves more. Feng Xiao, do you think this is true?"
I nodded. Yes, what she said does make sense.
She then sighed and said: "Feng Xiao, do you know what I'm most worried about? What I'm most worried about is that you also gained benefits from the transaction between Yang Shuguang and Ning Xiangru. Because I really can't guarantee that Ning Xiangru
Can pass this interrogation. You should know that at present no one knows to what extent the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection will control this case. For me, I just know that they will control part of this case, not
Let it expand too much. The extent of this control is in the hands of Secretary Fang of the Provincial Party Committee. Feng Xiao, it’s not that I don’t believe you, but there are too many temptations in today’s society, especially money.
It is difficult for ordinary people to resist the temptation of God."
I said: "Sister, I have always taken money very lightly, not to mention that I can make money through other ways."
She nodded, "I know. But I still feel a little uneasy. By the way, I heard that you have moved?"
I nodded and said, "Yes. This was my mother's idea. She felt very uneasy living here. One was because of what happened to her child last time, and the other was that she felt that people with my status should not live in such a place.
"
She sighed: "Your mother's concern is right. In fact, I shouldn't live in such a place. But if I don't live here, where will I live? I am a single woman, and I couldn't live in a provincial leader's villa before.
District level. Anyway, the source organization of my villa can be found out clearly. Feng Xiao, actually you may not know that the property rights of my villa actually belong to Hong Ya."
I was not surprised by this, because for a smart woman like Lin Yu, she should have been prepared for things like this. I smiled and said: "Sister, although I have never asked you about this, but
I can imagine that it should be like this.”
She then stretched and said, "Okay. I'm not worried now. Feng Xiao, I'm so tired. Let's go and rest."
To be honest, I really don’t have much passion for Lin Yu now. I feel that the relationship between us is like a couple who have been together for many years. There is less passion, but more family affection.
With her, some things getting done become a responsibility because she needs them.
After she was done, she went to take a shower, then lay next to me, resting her head in my arm, and asked me softly: "Feng Xiao, are you still used to your current job?"
I nodded, "Yeah. I'm just too busy. I do the work of several people by myself, and I have very little time to rest every day. I can't help it."
She said: "Your Secretary Chen thinks very highly of you. He came to me to report on his work recently. Although he didn't say it explicitly, I felt that he was not very satisfied with the work of Mayor Liu."
I said, "Actually, Mayor Liu can't be entirely blamed for some things. I think it's mainly because Mayor Liu can't let go, so he can't go to work boldly."
She asked me: "What does this mean?"
I said: "Maybe Mayor Liu thinks that the municipal party committee interferes too much in the government's work. I think so."
She immediately sat up and then looked at me, "Oh? Tell me what happened?"
I said: "Mayor Liu has always been engaged in party affairs before. It is a fact that he lacks experience in government work. However, he has to ask Secretary Chen for instructions on everything, and he does not make a decision on many things. This makes me a deputy.
It’s also difficult to handle. There are some things you said I should ask Secretary Chen for instructions. I’m worried that Mayor Liu will be unhappy, so I won’t ask for instructions. He won’t make a decision. I don’t want to be held responsible after doing something.”
She said: "You, Mayor Liu, were the candidates that Secretary Chen strongly recommended to us for inspection. Now Secretary Chen is dissatisfied with him. What is going on?"
So I told her about Mayor Liu's brother-in-law. In front of Lin Yu, there were some things I didn't need to hide from her.
After hearing this, she nodded and said: "That's right. Secretary Chen, your secretary, originally wanted to find someone who could be controlled as the mayor, but in the end, it affected his work. This shows that nothing in this world is perfect. This incident
Governor Wang also said hello at the time. In fact, we also felt that Mayor Liu was not suitable. Alas! There is no way, our country always follows the leadership’s will in employing people. Sometimes I think about it and it’s really sad. Feng Xiao,
Maybe you can't understand the frustration I feel in my heart now. I am the Organization Minister of the Provincial Party Committee, but I have seen all kinds of shortcomings in the appointment of cadres and been unable to make any changes. Now I realize that I was still too ideal before.
I always felt that I could change a lot after becoming the Organization Director. But when I actually sat in that position, I realized that I couldn’t change anything at all! Every time there is a vacancy for a deputy department level or above
As soon as the seats came out, leaders came to say hello, and we couldn't make the final decision on the selection of leading cadres for particularly important departments. As the organization director, I was a tool to arrange cadres for various relationships. Alas...
"
What she said should be true. In fact, the same is true for the organization department at the municipal level. The secretary of the municipal party committee is the person who can fully control the fate of cadres. In the final analysis, the organization department of the municipal party committee is a department that embodies the leadership's will to employ people.
I smiled and said, "Sister, I don't know how many people want to have a position like yours. As the head of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, you still have a lot of power."
She immediately laughed, "That's right. At least it's okay for me to arrange a few of my own people. It doesn't matter, everyone is doing it anyway, why don't I arrange for my own people? For example, you. Besides, you are very capable.
.Feng Xiao, do you know? What I am most satisfied with you is that you work very hard and diligently, and you are good at using your brain to think about problems. Your work achievements are there, and others can't gossip.
Yes. Alas! If I had known you, Mayor Liu... Forget it, let’s not talk about it, it’s impossible, and you won’t be able to directly ascend to the position of mayor at that time. Let’s talk about it later.”
I hurriedly said: "Sister, I think I can do more things now. On the one hand, I can learn more things and become more familiar with some local things. On the other hand, I think it is good as it is now. The top leader is not that good."
That’s right. I’m very satisfied.”
She smiled and shook her head: "Don't be satisfied. You said that men, as men, should be more ambitious. A person's position is not only a reflection of personal value, but also allows you to change the face of a place according to your own ideas.
.If power is used well, it will be a blessing for a place. To be honest, it is actually difficult to find a few good officials now.
Your Secretary Chen is quite good. At least he has courage and is willing to do things for the people.
But he is too strong, and this kind of personality is both good and bad. The good thing is that there will be less noise at work, so that you can achieve greater success in Shangjiang City's reform faster. The bad thing is that this can also easily cause
The expansion of his power will cause huge losses once a major decision-making mistake is made.
In fact, this is also a common problem among local officials in our country, and it is also the most common problem that many places in our country currently face when they pursue economic development one-sidedly.
Sometimes I think that the current one-sided pursuit of economic development has resulted in extreme deterioration of the environment and a huge waste of resources. The sequelae caused by these problems are likely to become more and more prominent in the next few years.
The consequences are quite dire.
It can even be said that the current environmental pollution and resource waste we have caused for these economic benefits may cost ten or even dozens of times to compensate for it in the future. I don’t understand why our country’s leaders just look at
What about less than these?”
I was silent for a moment.
Lin Yu's concerns are indeed justified. In fact, I am also very puzzled by our country's current practice of simply using economic development as the evaluation criterion for leading cadres. However, some of our leaders have caused huge pollution to the environment in the region.
Turning a blind eye to the huge waste of resources makes people feel even more incredible.
Even Zhong Nanshan said: If corresponding solutions are not taken, many people will not be able to have children in fifty years.

At present, the incidence rates of intestinal cancer, women's cervical cancer, and ovarian cancer are showing a rapid growth trend in some areas of our country, and these are closely related to the excessive use of pesticides, additives, preservatives, and growth promoters.
In addition, as food problems have become more and more prominent in recent years, men’s sperm concentration has also changed greatly. In the past, men’s sperm concentration was considered normal at 100 million to 50 million, but now 30 million is considered normal. Now men
Sperm concentration has dropped by nearly half compared to forty years ago.
Data show that the current food pollution phenomenon in our country has become very serious. Food pollution mainly comes from two aspects: First, during the growth process of animals and plants used as food, environmental pollutants enter the human body due to breathing or ingestion or drinking water and
Accumulated; second, food is contaminated by pollutants or other harmful substances (pathogens, food additives) during processing, packaging, storage, transportation, sales and cooking.
At the same time, food is contaminated by bacteria, molds and the toxins they produce, as well as parasite eggs, which can cause people to suffer from food poisoning, infectious diseases and parasitic diseases. "Biological pollution" such as food spoilage, food contains toxins
"Chemical pollution" of chemical substances and "radioactive pollution" in which man-made radionuclides adsorbed by food are higher than the natural radioactive background have also quietly invaded our daily lives and can be seen everywhere around us.
Urban air is seriously polluted. At present, China's urban air pollution includes smoke, acid rain, photochemical smog, inhalable particulate matter, etc., which form complex pollution through physical, chemical, biological and other actions and reactions, resulting in low air visibility and enhanced atmospheric oxidation.
.Regional characteristics are formed with cities as the center, especially in the Greater Beijing area, the Yangtze River Delta, and the Pearl River Delta. This not only affects visibility, but more importantly, seriously affects human health.
Air pollution in cities mainly comes from industrial smoke exhaust and pollution caused by traffic exhaust. Some steel mills, power plants, and coal kilns emit billowing thick smoke into the sky, and dust particles and harmful substances float into the air.
Everywhere, it enters everyone's lungs.
"If my country's air quality can meet the national second-level standards, 180,000 deaths can be avoided every year." At the "International Symposium on Regional Air Quality Management" held in October 2005, Deputy Director of the State Environmental Protection Administration Director Zhang Lijun said this.
Let’s look at water pollution. The main pollutants in ground water are ammonia nitrogen, petroleum, permanganate index, biochemical oxygen demand, volatile phenols, mercury and cyanide. Water bodies are polluted by nitrogen, phosphorus and other substances, causing algae and other aquatic organisms.
Eutrophication caused by mass reproduction is also a phenomenon of biological pollution of water bodies.
Furthermore, because the speed of treatment cannot keep up with the speed of pollution, the degree of water pollution in the Yangtze River is still deepening, and the water quality in some sections of the river has deteriorated, which has affected the drinking water safety of cities along the river. Relevant experts call: If the pollution of the Yangtze River cannot be fundamentally curbed as soon as possible, it will
Ten years from now, the Yangtze River is likely to go the way of the Yellow and Huaihe Rivers.
At present, the problem of ecological damage in our country is extremely prominent. The predatory exploitation of resources and unreasonable use result in waste of resources, thus destroying the environment and causing serious environmental pollution.
I believe that the most fundamental cause of these phenomena is institutional issues. Officials one-sidedly pursue the short-term economic interests of a region, only consider personal promotion, have an indifferent concept of environmental protection, etc. In the final analysis, this is the result of the rule of man.
We will pay a high price for today's one-sided pursuit of economic development. This is an indisputable fact. (To be continued)
