Chapter 68 Iron heart "governing mediocrity"

There is such a story: Zhao Wen from the Zhao family in a certain county in Hebei passed the exam, and Yan Bi from another Yan family was so keen that he wanted his son, the third, to take the exam, but the third was not interested. He asked the teacher Wang Ren: "What is the benefit of winning the Juren?" Wang Ren replied: "(If you) won the exam, you will be an official. If you become an official, you can make money. You can also beat people in court. When you go out, someone will open the gong and shout." To be an official is to collect money for oneself, so as to make a fortune; secondly, you can shake the prestige of the official and bully the people.

Today, with the change of social times and the evolution of life values, these parents who "won the Juren" have become "people's servants" who "serve the people".And the phrase "serve the people wholeheartedly" is the appeal of the times of the broad masses of the people, and it is their "solemn promise" to the masses of the people.However, what is chilling is that this heavy commitment is as light as a feather in the hearts of some local cadres. But a piece of black coal can become the "achievements" of these local cadres to show off to the world, and it can also become the "grave" of their careers.

In this regard, someone drew a very vivid analogy: it is like a bottomless black hole, swallowing many local coal officials and becoming the "Bermuda" of Shanxi officialdom. 2007 is a year of extraordinary significance for Linfen. This year, the "Bermuda" effect of Shanxi officialdom was "perfectly interpreted" here, and Linfen successively became the "Waterloo" where a group of officials "fallen". In this massive "accountability rush", officials in this city have experienced a "heart-wrenching torment" of "life and death".

Among them, some grassroots cadres took advantage of their positions to seek huge personal benefits for themselves through means such as examination and approval reductions and delays in the payment of coal resource prices. These "parent officials" who use their own interests to generously benefit the country are even more anxious at this moment. For a time, the rain was about to come, and the wind was rumbling.More importantly, the credibility and governance ability of the local people's government among the broad masses of the people is undergoing an unprecedented severe "test"!

Now, facing the people of Linfen is a series of "problems": corruption, economy, people's livelihood and development. The voice of "asking" is urgent, and the difficulty of "questioning" is urgent. The first thing is to clean up the "mediocrity" in the officialdom, that is, to make some "Mr. Dongguo" who can only "make up for it" but not really do it hard to stay, and make some "one asks that it can be done, and the other asks that it can't be done. The mediocre officials who ask three questions and don't speak" disappeared.

"It's really not easy to be an official in Linfen now. Integrity is the foundation, and the work style must be strong." An official in Linfen said. From another perspective, the rulers have carried out this "campaign" with a clear-cut banner. This is not only the protection of the achievements we have made in the past 30 years of reform and opening up, but also the greatest protection for other promising officials. In the eyes of many people, the "movement" advocated by the government to "deeply carry out the anti-corruption struggle in the coal coke field and create a good atmosphere of cleanliness and integrity" is becoming an important task for Linfen City at present and for a long time to come. And building a clean, efficient, and pragmatic cadre team is the fundamental strategy for Linfen to "break through".
