Chapter 26 Chapter Twenty Six

Ma Yang, who had already reported to Dashanzi, took time out of his busy schedule today to "meet" this old friend.As for Dashanzi, he can say that he fully estimated the difficult situation of "a lot of waste is waiting to be done". He thought that after he left, he would be surrounded by crowds of petitioners all day long and be complained by all kinds of people. Surrounded by grassroots cadres, there will be countless bills flying towards him like a snowflake... But he never expected that the actual situation is a hundred times "worse" than he could have imagined.That day, Minister Lu of the Organization Department went to announce his appointment in person.Halfway through the meeting, there was a sudden power outage.Upon further questioning, the head office had owed electricity bills for more than half a year, and the power company "couldn't bear it any longer". They felt that they had to put some pressure on the new general manager anyway, so they decided to stage a demonstration on his first day in office.Minister Lu personally called the boss of the power company and asked them to keep the electricity until the minute the meeting was over.But the answer over there is that the boss is on a business trip.Can't find it.Put on the wax and stick to the meeting.Send off Minister Lu and go back to his general manager's office.As soon as he opened the door, waiting for him in the office were several comrades from the Provincial Intermediate People's Court, as well as comrades from two courts in other provinces and cities.They all came to send "subpoenas" to the new general manager.Summon the new general manager to appear in court and accept the "trial".And these are just a few economic lawsuits that are already going to court. It is said that there are more than ten economic lawsuits waiting to be heard... The corridor is completely dark, and there is a smell of urine from the public toilets.The old leatherette floors were cracked, chipped, and glued.The wallpaper was peeling.There are patches of mud everywhere, and they are so sticky and wet that people get tired... What surprised Ma Yang and gave him a headache the most was the "laziness" and "slackness" of the cadres at the headquarters.That day, he decided to convene another meeting of all cadres of the headquarters. This was the fourth meeting of all cadres of the headquarters after he reported to Dashanzi.At eight fifty he gave the order to ring the bell.At fifty-five minutes, all the members of the leadership team of the head office headed by him were seated on the rostrum.There are still five minutes to leave the meeting, but at this time there are not many people sitting in the meeting place.Many are still going about their private affairs in their respective offices.Playing chess, playing cards, making phone calls to inquire about stock market prices, exchanging experience in decorating private houses, helping a friend's child transfer schools, copying secret recipes of Chinese medicine, teaching Qigong experience... At this time, a skinny old cadre held a thermos cup in one hand , carrying a homemade cotton pad in one hand, and a notepad under his armpit, walked into this office, knocked on the door, and shouted to them: "Hey, brothers and sisters, let's go, the new leader I invite you." "What are you talking about, you are already in your fifties, and you are still pointing at what officials and ranks the new leader will give you? Give up, what about you?" None of the chess players raised their heads, just pointing at He waved.At this time, the ringing stopped suddenly.Everyone present was startled.When the veteran cadre who was honored as the "Yanzhi" and a large group of people walked into the venue in a hurry or in a hurry, the layout of the venue had already changed.All those who walked into the venue before the bell rang were invited to the left side of the venue.Of course they are entitled to sit.In addition, all the chairs on the right were removed.Therefore, those who entered the venue after the bell rang could only stand on the large gray concrete floor that had been vacated.The "Yanzhi" probably thought that he was a department-level cadre and was always qualified to occupy a seat in the left seat. He was about to go to the left, but was stopped by two "pickets" who had been arranged in advance, asking him to "you're welcome." , and also stood on the cold concrete floor on the right.At this time, people kept coming, either in a hurry or not in a hurry, and they were all invited to the right.So there was a burst of laughter in the venue.There are the voices of the comrades on the left mocking themselves, and the voices of the comrades on the right laughing at themselves, and even more the voices of the two sides booing and mocking each other.After a while, there are more and more people on the right.The laughter in the venue became louder and louder.Someone took the opportunity to sneak away——I won’t play with you anymore, it’s okay, but six or seven "pickets" were posted at the entrance of the venue early in the morning.These people were invited back one by one.Some of them were embarrassed, while others pretended nothing had happened, and laughed with those sitting there.But suddenly the laughter gradually faded away.Some people gradually turned their attention to the rostrum.The leaders on the rostrum all had serious faces.Ma Yang, who was sitting in the middle of them, had already stood up and walked down the stage.He walked up to the "speaking place". "Director Yan, it's hard work. Go and sit on the stage." The director of Yan blushed, "Don't, don't..." Ma Yang turned to the group of latecomers who didn't have a seat: "Excuse me, there are still people here." There are no cadres above the level”

The crowd was silent. "No more. Are there any cadres above the department?" Ma Yang continued to ask. The crowd still gave him a silence. "Why do you still need to ask the head of the Organization Department to call the roll?" Ma Yang threw his "killer card".Those who are cadres are afraid of the head of the organization and the secretary of the discipline inspection committee.So, after a while, three or four people in the group raised their hands one after another. "Thank you, please put it down. Now I ask those who are party members to raise their hands." After a moment of hesitation, almost half of the people raised their hands.As for the headquarters, Party members always make up the majority. "Thank you. Thank you." With that said, Ma Yang turned and walked to the stage.The director of speech thought it was all right, so he also turned around and walked into the crowd.Ma Yang immediately stopped him: "Please stop. Director Yan, I will work hard for you for a while." Director Yan had to stop.Ma Yang returned to the rostrum and stood in front of the microphone: "All members of the party committee, please come to the backstage. Have a small meeting right away." At this time, someone stood up immediately and shouted: "You officials have a small meeting." Yes, what are we doing?" Someone laughed.Ma Yang said neither in a hurry nor in annoyance: "Then please wait patiently for us for a while."

"Party committee members, please." Ma Yang gestured, and the party committee members started to get up and walk to the stage.There was a suffocating silence in the venue.Suddenly, someone stood up with a smile on his face and made a joke, and there was a bit of commotion in the venue again.Ma Yang slapped the table hard.The smiling man hurriedly shrank back into the crowd.The venue gradually became quiet again. Ma Yang invited the party committee members to the dressing room backstage.Ma Yang said to the members of the party committee: "...This is the fourth meeting of all cadres of the organization after I took office. At the first meeting, I announced several work disciplines of the organization. As I said, for Those who do not regard discipline as discipline can tolerate it once, twice, but never three times. Dashanzi, a big ship carrying more than 300,000 crew members and passengers, is about to sink. We are not acting in the American blockbuster " Titanic". The sinking and sinking of the Titanic is nothing more than paving the way for the love story of two young people. But if our big ship really sinks, it will really involve 300,000 people The mission entrusted to us by history is to ensure that this big ship does not sink, not only prevents it from sinking, but also allows it to sail far away. What depends on the central government's principles and policies, and the hard work of our cadres at all levels Work hard. The cadres of the government are the eyes and ears of the leaders, and they are also the right arm. If we can't even hold a decent meeting of the cadres of the government, how can we talk about turning the tide and saving the people from the fire? All kinds of hardships and hardships that may occur in the countless days and nights in the future. Is it like a command organization on the eve of the Great War? The work style of the organization has not improved significantly so far, and the primary responsibility lies with me. I invite all members to come and make these two decisions. Since Comrade Ma Yang took office, he has been ineffective in his work, and he has been marked once; second, Comrade Yan Keyan was immediately removed from the position of director of the financial department. The work of the financial department is temporarily presided over by Comrade Fang Qing, the deputy director. Please express your opinion." There was silence. .Ma Yang repeated: "I am mainly responsible for today's situation. Please punish me first. Do you have any opinions?" Still silent.Ma Yang patiently explained: "If you have different opinions, you can talk about it. Comrades are waiting for our decision at the venue." There was still silence. "If you don't make a statement, can it be considered as acquiescence to my two proposals" is still silent.Ma Yang was helpless, so he had to propose: "That's good. Secretary Ding, please record it. All the members of the party committee acquiesced to my two proposals just now... the meeting will be adjourned."

At this time, a committee member stood up: "Wait a minute...don't acquiesce...Last week, the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department announced that our party committee team is only a temporary work team. I would like to ask Comrade Ma Yang, a Can the temporary work team make such a decision to punish cadres above the division?" Ma Yang said: "When the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee announced this decision, it emphasized that the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee decided that the current team in Dashanzi is temporary. Exercising normal work power. Do you still have any objections to this decision of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee?" Another member hesitated and said, "Do you think it is appropriate to punish an old comrade who has worked in the post for decades for such a trivial matter?" Ma Yang replied immediately: "I will not repeat the reason for the punishment. Please express your opinion."

Still silent. Ma Yang became a little anxious: "Comrades, everyone is waiting at the venue. You can object to my proposal. But you must express your opinion." Still silent.Ma Yang can only be tough: "That's good. Let's express our position one by one. Turn around and ask a committee member next to you what's your opinion." The committee member hesitated for a long time, and his face flushed: "You are the leader, you can figure it out Let’s do it.” Ma Yang turned to the next one: “What about you?” The committee member smiled helplessly: “You can figure it out.” Ma Yang said to the third committee member: “It’s up to you.” “It’s up to you...” Ma Yang Yang refused to let go: "Please make it clear, who can figure it out?" "You. You are the leader..." Everyone will have the same attitude in the future: "You are the leader, you can figure it out." So, Ma Yang In less than a week after taking office, he replaced the most important director of the finance department, and at the same time made a note of himself... Afterwards, several department-level cadres were replaced in succession, and the work style of the organization improved a little... …
