Chapter 16 Chapter Two Turn on the Brightest Lamp in the World

What the government does - can you tell which light is the brightest in the world?Is it the torch that the Statue of Liberty in New York Bay holds up high in her right hand?Is it the lantern wrapped in red silk that hangs high above the Tiananmen Gate and shines at night?Or the luminous searchlight on the top of the Toronto TV Tower illuminating the whole city?Or the ever-burning light on a gigantic liner sailing across the Atlantic? No, neither.The brightest lamp in the world is in the ancient town of China. In the minds of those who make lamps to light the world... Everyone in Guzhen has the brightest lamp in his heart.This light illuminates their journey to show wisdom and gather wealth.

Turn the clock back to that fiery summer day in 1993.In the town government hall of the ancient town, an important meeting that affects the history of this southern town is being held: the election of a new mayor. It was originally a regular meeting for a new term, but this time the voters representing tens of thousands of people in the ancient town looked particularly solemn and excited.Because it appeared on the list of candidates for the new mayor, there was a name that made many representatives feel fresh and unusual: Wu Runfu. About Wu Runfu, most representatives of the ancient town are no strangers.The problem is that he is not a "government cadre"—although he had already been the general manager of a certain group in Guzhen Town before this, he was not a town government official in the true sense.A "boss" who has never been a deputy mayor wants to be the mayor of Guzhen Town. Isn't this new?Is it emancipation of the mind and advanced consciousness?Or do we have to add the word "blind" before the nonsense?

Wu Runfu, 36 years old at the time, a member of the Communist Party of China, with a high school education.He has been in charge of many township enterprises and is very familiar with economic work.In particular, this comrade is loyal to the cause of the party, considerate and caring for the masses, and especially has a strong ability to control the overall situation... The leader of the Organization Department of the Zhongshan Municipal Party Committee introduced it to the representatives word by word. "Wu Runfu", "Wu Runfu"...the election voting began.The delegates raised their solemn and excited arms one by one, chanting the name in their mouths and hearts.

Wu Runfu, young and vigorous, understands economics, and loves the common people... Choose him! Choose him! The history of the ancient town once again opened a new page: Wu Runfu, who had never been a town leader for a day, jumped from the "boss" to the mayor of the ancient town, and even skipped the step of deputy mayor.There is no precedent in the history of Guzhen Town.It is also "rare" in Zhongshan City. "Being the mayor of the town for half a year, I also served as the manager of the original group company. After I went there, I found that the mayor was actually very different from the boss of the group company." Wu Runfu, who is already the party secretary of the ancient town, recalled the beginning of more than 10 years ago. When I entered the official way, I laughed so much.

Wu Runfu took office as the mayor, unlike other officials, he worked with the eyes of the "boss" in charge of the enterprise, stripping away those ineffective and harmful things, and returning and reshaping those excellent units—— Run the business first. After running around, Wu Runfu found that the ancient town is not big, but there are not a few large shops and small factories left over from the planned economy period, and most of them survive in name only, and the collective losses and personal prosperity account for the majority. "My opinion is: the system must be transformed as soon as possible! It is best not to leave any of the collective..." Wu Runfu's first fire came with "super capitalism".Fortunately, this was after Deng Xiaoping’s speech on the Southern Tour, and the issue of “surname capital” and “surname society” is no longer in the sight of people’s debate, but the transformation of “not one” publicly owned enterprises—to put it bluntly It is a very sensitive and advanced move in the early 90s of last century.

"The town party committee, what does the government want to do?" The restructuring will inevitably affect the interests of some people, so some people question whether this kind of decision-making is for the interests of tens of thousands of people in the town. This question became the focus of the ancient town at that time. "The transformation was carried out under the strict supervision of the masses and relevant professional departments, and most of them were completed in the form of public auctions, so nothing shady happened, not to mention whether I and other officials of the town government had any benefits in it. Yes. My point of view is very clear: collective enterprises cannot be run well, and enterprises can only survive if they are run privately. This truth is actually simple. After the transformation of property rights and interests, the hearts of those who run enterprises are different. Enterprises under public ownership The loss belongs to the public, the loss belongs to the collective and the state, and the profit belongs to a few people. What is even more exasperating is that some enterprises have suffered huge losses, while a few people have money in their pockets. We are the grassroots at the township level. Except for the industries that the government needs to control, such as electricity and water, which are related to people's lives, no enterprise has been backed by the government. So I thought from the beginning: collective enterprises cannot be run well, and enterprises must be run by private individuals. Our ancient town has been established since 1995. We started to transform all the collective enterprises, and basically sold them all in two years. The government has been light from now on.”

"Then where are the actions of the government?" Facing the "sell" theory, the author asked. "There are so many things to do!" It seems that Secretary Wu Runfu was particularly refreshed about such a problem. "I propose that the government's responsibility should be to serve the society well, manage the society well, and develop the society well. How should it be done? It should be mainly reflected in guidance, Service and operation. Among the above three, operation is the most important.” "how to say?" "Because any government that doesn't pay attention to management is an ineffective government. No matter how good the guidance and service are, it is still a government that talks on paper and is passive. Only when the management is good can the guidance be more convincing and the service more in place." In this case, only people who are engaged in business work can have it. It seems that the recommendation of the organization and the election of Wu Runfu, who was born as a "boss", as the mayor of the ancient town are different.He brought a new awareness of the concept of government management.

Talking about "management", Wu Runfu's face is glowing. "No matter what you do, you must have a business philosophy. To operate, you must learn how to settle accounts. Don't underestimate a town with a population of tens of thousands and an area of ​​tens of square kilometers. If the management is good or bad, it will create a completely different society!" Wu Runfu waved his hands passionately, "Let me tell you about the management of the land in our ancient town. You may also know that over the years, some local governments have A large amount of land was sold under various names. As a result, the government may ease the financial situation for a while, but in the end, it is the people who are poor, and the government is the one who suffers. The reason is simple, your government has no resources to create happiness for the people. The common people don't buy your account and ask you to solve this and that every day. If your life is not miserable, will there be other situations? On the contrary, our ancient town has put forward the concept of "managing the town" from the very beginning. Especially to seize natural resources ——The management of the land. We control all the land in the hands of the government. No one has the right to sell the land casually. Only the government approves it. When the government manages the land, the first thing is planning. Our ancient town In the mid-1990s, the development of the lighting industry and the long-term construction of ancient towns and cities began to be considered simultaneously. Therefore, when the ancient town developed into today's "Lighting City", you did not see our urban and rural construction and the development of the "Lighting City" Contradictions arise, and generally speaking, they are coordinated. This is where the earlier planning played a role. Of course, the planning can be adjusted at any time, but the initial large-scale planning must be scientific, reasonable and forward-looking.”

Secretary Wu Runfu’s words caused our thoughts to wander temporarily... On that day, when we stepped on the steps of the majestic and majestic government building in the ancient town, we couldn’t help but look up at the towering sky-high “Hundred Years of Grace” building, and look back at it. From the ancient town to the new city—oh, it is really a thriving and vibrant scene: wide and neat streets, orderly buildings, square and grand regional structure, urban green spaces and factories surrounded by flowers and trees... all Everything is matched so harmoniously and naturally.When you are here, you can not only feel the prosperity and fashion of the metropolis, but also enjoy the pastoral life of pastoral farming.This is today's ancient town under the management of Wu Runfu and the others.

"When there was no plan, our land here was 60,000 yuan per mu, but now the most expensive one has exceeded 6 million yuan per mu. The same is true for industrial land. At first, it was only 10,000 yuan per mu, but now it has reached more than 600,000 yuan. Yes! The same piece of land has been injected with business philosophy and value expression, so it will be one land at a time. What is the government doing with more money, isn’t it benefiting the people? Now the farmers in our ancient town have a per capita income of more than 10,000 yuan. At the end of last year, the town’s bank The balance of deposits is nearly 7.2 billion yuan. What is this concept? That is to say, the people in our ancient town with a population of less than 70,000 have an average bank deposit of 80,000 yuan. From this figure, we can proudly say that in the ancient town, The common people are rich, and the business owners are rich. Although the cadres have less money than others, they are respected, because our government and cadres have truly adhered to the scientific concept of development and the concept of governing for the people. The economic and social development of a township area has been regarded as the top priority and fundamental direction, and it has been consistently achieved and done well. Let’s use the land as an example: the land resources of the ancient town are 58,000 mu in total. Now we The central area that can be seen has basically built a relatively modern "China Lighting Capital" and a world lighting industry base, but we still have 38,000 acres of land resources available. This is when I have been the mayor and party secretary of the town for more than 10 years The one thing I'm most proud of..."

Heh, anyone who knows a little bit about accounting can understand that Wu Runfu and his town leaders have used their business philosophy in the past ten years, and they have actually created huge real and future wealth for the people of the ancient town in terms of land resources alone. !Using the former site and newly developed 20,000 mu of land, a world-class "Dengdu" new city has been built, while 30,000 mu of land resources and living space with higher utilization value have been retained. The word "remarkable" cannot be used casually.But it is fully reflected in Guzhen and Wu Runfu and his group. What is scientific development?What is building a harmonious society?Guzhen's concept and practice of "managing a town" is the result! The "boss" was in power——During the interviews in the ancient town, a question that often flashed in our minds was always asking us: Why can a remote town in the south of the country without geographical advantages and resource advantages survive in an extremely short history? In an instant, how about building a famous and wealthy "Light Capital"?It turns out that Wu Runfu, who knows how to operate, and the government that insists on "benefits downward" are playing a fundamental and leading role. We went to the ancient town for interviews and stayed at the five-star "Guomao Hotel" representing the modern urban level of the ancient town. There are not many five-star hotels in the small town in China and even in the world.This hotel with an investment of nearly 400 million yuan is a building integrating accommodation, entertainment, shopping malls, and leisure. When the construction started, the investors were timid. They were worried about losing money, so they had doubts in the early stage of construction.The leaders of the town government immediately made a decision, and the government became a shareholder, which means that the government is willing to share the risk.The town government has added a promise to other investors: Once the hotel becomes profitable, the government will withdraw immediately. In the past 3 years, "Guomao Hotel" has developed rapidly with the rapid development of the ancient town "Dengdu".When the passenger flow was flocking and the financial resources were rolling in, the government made the decision to withdraw the shares without any conditions.This is a well-known story among investors in all ancient towns. The town party committee's "smart tricks" are not only in the management of land resources, but also bolder and more pioneering in the "management" of talent and cadre resources. The ancient town of "Dengdu" rose rapidly from the concept of "management talents".Therefore, it grows so healthy and strong, so full of vigor and vitality, even impeccable. We need to flash back to the mid-1990s. Almost at the same time as “selling” the collective enterprise, the town party committee found through investigations of each village committee: the town and village cadres were too old at that time!The average age is over 60 years old, and even a considerable number of village chiefs and party secretaries are in their 60s and 70s and are still in power. "In principle, everyone over the age of 55 should go down!" This is the decision of the town party committee. "Why?" Someone asked. "These old cadres who have worked in the revolution for decades, they have consciousness and thought, can build and develop new countryside, especially in modern economic construction, they have no physical strength, and lack the practical ability to engage in economics! Today we are doing Consciousness and thinking are not enough for economic construction, but physical strength is also necessary! Physical strength sometimes directly affects the results of consciousness and thinking. Therefore, the township party committee decided to remove all village-level cadres over the age of 55 from the entire town.” Wu Runfu spoke even more absolutely this time. Some people questioned the township party committee: so many people have to be replaced, but where can we find so many people to replace them? The town party committee believes that many people in the ancient town wash their feet from the ground and go to the city to do business in recent years. They are looking for those who have successfully established businesses and done business!The second is to find those who are capable of running their own businesses and doing business, and who have a mass base and are willing to serve the people themselves. Good guy, isn't it going to turn the world upside down to find those "bosses" to be village cadres? Someone was so nervous that he quickly closed the door of the town government's meeting room: Keep your voice down, or if it gets out that we haven't made a decision, people will come home and smash the doors of the party committee and the government! In order to unify opinions, the town party committee and government held a closed-door meeting.After fierce debate, it was finally approved to elect the business owner (economic capable person) as the village branch secretary and director of the village committee. The meeting was very lively.In the end, the proposal was "unanimously approved".Because there is no interference, the old cadres of the villages in the ancient town are still shouting at their peasant brothers at their posts.But a few days later, they began to curse—"What does the party committee want to do?" "Let's go down and replace those 'bosses' as village cadres. Doesn't this mean handing over the Communist Party's world to the capitalists?" "The ancient town is going to be over this time! It's really over..." Someone sighed, and someone stamped their feet. The words of "hat" added gas, and the party committee and the group were a little out of breath.However, the resolution of the party committee can no longer be changed, and the replacement plan will be implemented according to the established plan. A few days later, 47% of the village cadres in the town were dismissed, and a group of "bosses" recommended by the masses, organized and inspected, and willing to give up the "golden rice bowl" and return to the village to hold the "clay rice bowl" stepped up to the village head , The post of the village party secretary. "What happened later?" How can we not want to find out about this wonderful historical turning point? Wu Runfu, who now sits at the top of the leadership team of the ancient town of "Dengdu", told us with great pride: the 12 villages under the jurisdiction of the ancient town were all changed to people from the "boss" background as village heads and village leaders. secretary.Most of them were elected in 1994 and 1995, and one-third of them have worked for more than 10 years.Practice has proved that these "boss"-born cadres are smart, economical, and young.When the masses of the people gave him political status and power, they were able to strictly demand themselves.They have lofty beliefs and a spirit of dedication to the interests of the people. In addition, we often organize their study and education, especially to visit and study in advanced countries, and at the same time enhance their awareness of the legal system. We strictly stipulate three points: First, when The cadres of the Communist Party have to follow the rules of the Communist Party; second, you have to show your true skills to make the people rich; third, all financial and government affairs must be open.Therefore, over the past 10 years, except for one village cadre who was punished by the organization for violating the regulations and paying more bonuses, the others have become leaders in leading farmers to become well-off and build a new socialist countryside.From this perspective, our ancient town has been able to develop into what it is today in just over ten years, especially since we have become "National Civilized Town", "Top 100 Towns in National Investment Environment", "Top 100 Towns in National Afforestation and Greening" ", "Educational Powerful Town in Guangdong Province", "Agricultural Modernization Demonstration Zone in Guangdong Province" and other honorary titles are all due to the hard work of these grassroots village cadres.In 2005, the village-level collective income of our ancient town reached 257 million yuan, with an average of 24.41 million yuan per village.The per capita income of farmers reached 10050 yuan.Farmers in every village now have medical care, education, and retirement security. The pensions for better farmers can reach five or six hundred yuan a month. In addition, there is a year-end "dividend" income of several thousand yuan a year brought by the collective economy... This is the result of the "boss" being a village cadre!Wu Runfu made a pioneering work for the people of the ancient town, and also set an example for the whole of China to build a new socialist countryside with Chinese characteristics.A few years ago, the town party committee's practice of letting business owners become village cadres was affirmed by the Organization Department of the Central Committee. "You can go to the village to listen to the opinions of the farmers, and you can also see what our village cadres who are bosses do and think." Wu Runfu hopes that we can learn more about this. So we bid farewell to the noisy and lively "Light City" for a while, and went to the ancient town and countryside with fragrant flowers and trees and idyllic pastoral songs, which became another action we interviewed. The party members of Gu 1 and Gu 2 Villages——Gu Yi Village, the richest man in the "Light City", is the closest to the center of the ancient town, and they have the best geographical advantage in the "Light City".But if such an advantage is not placed in the hands of capable people, it may become the cause of complaints from the people.However, we did not see this kind of situation in Guyi Village. On the contrary, the first thing that jumped into our eyes was the "foreign house" villas with different styles... We only have such high-end villas in Huaxi, Jiangsu. village seen.Farmers in Guyi Village can also live in such a house, which shows their wealth. Several retired old farmers who were playing chess in the shade in front of the house heard that we were writers from Beijing who came to understand the changes in the village, and they couldn’t help introducing them with joy: the ancient town has become a “light capital”, and our farmers have sesame seeds blooming Good day.This is thanks to the government and Secretary Su Detian who led the people to become rich and well-off. "Secretary Su is sick because of our villagers! Comrade writers, you must write about such a good cadre. He is not a billionaire himself, but he has cultivated several billionaires for the village, and finally got seriously ill..." A senior old man said so with tears in his eyes. Secretary Su?seriously ill?We couldn't help but feel a little nervous after hearing this. "Yes, you really should interview Secretary Su." The town cadre Xiao Cui who accompanied us said to us. That morning, it rained suddenly, and we came to Secretary Su's house in Guyi Village.From this burly farmer, we can see his former style.Originally, he didn't want to bother him who was seriously ill, but when Old Su talked about the changes in the village, his emotions were very high.So we learned about him and Guyi Village over the past ten years from him. Lao Su was one of the first party members who proposed that the township party committee make the "boss" a village cadre. In 1994, he returned to the village from a private enterprise and served as the village party secretary. "At that time, I felt like I was dreaming, and I couldn't believe it." Lao Su recalled: He was a production captain in the 1970s, and he came out to do business after the reform and opening up. He sold fish and set up a plastic product processing factory, and the business was good. . "It would not be a problem to become a multi-millionaire. But after returning to the village as a cadre, my destiny has changed..." "Regret?" we asked. "No. I'm very happy with the path I chose..." Old Su shook his head firmly and said, "I'm a party member. To be honest, during those years of doing business, I was so absorbed in the business that I basically forgot that I was a party member. I am now a member of the Communist Party who serves others. I never imagined that the town party committee, the town government and the people in the village would give me another chance to serve the people wholeheartedly. When I joined the party, I swore to serve the people for life, but to be honest, I did After becoming an individual boss, you had to focus on your own affairs. After making some money, my heart was often empty, especially when I saw that most people in the village could not afford medical care or pay for their children to go to school. My heart was even more empty. Yes. At that time, all I could do was to give some money to the villagers, but it couldn’t solve the root cause... Returning to the village to be the secretary of the village party committee was something I never dreamed of. I think this is the trust of the organization, and it is the trust of the villagers. They trust me. I cherish it very much. So when I returned to the village, I took care of the affairs of the village as seriously as I used to run individual businesses. The ancient town has developed due to the development of the lamp industry in recent years. The central area of ​​the ancient town is the most recent. Whether you can seize the development opportunity depends on being able to settle accounts, invest, and manage. Over the years, together with other cadres in the village, I have devoted almost all my energy to how to provide for every inch of land and every village in the village. Investment opportunities produce the best and best benefits. We started from the industry, scientifically integrated various resources, and focused on property development. When making major decisions, we fully reflect the will of party members and the masses , Before making decisions on each project, we openly solicited opinions from villagers’ representatives and party members. When I took office in 1994, the village’s annual income was about 4 million yuan. Now the annual collective economic income of the whole village is stable at 50 to 60 million yuan Yuan, more than ten times more than in the past. After the villagers reach the retirement age, each person can receive a pension of 600 yuan per month, as well as a considerable dividend income as a "shareholder"... "But what makes me most gratified is: when I was the village party secretary, there were only 80 party members among the 5,000 villagers in the village. Now there are more than 130 party members, many of whom are young comrades. Most of them are private enterprises. God, loves the party, loves socialism, has love for the villagers, and has made great contributions to the country. In the past ten years or so, our village has produced several billionaires!" Heh, Old Secretary Su, a seriously ill Communist Party member, when he dripped sweat and told us about the changes in his village, a kind of lofty respect suddenly rose in our hearts.This is the spiritual realm of the "boss" village cadres selected by Guzhen!The true qualities of a group of true Communists! Lin Rongzhan, the old secretary of Gu Er Village, is a well-known Gu Town native.Because his "Huaxing" enterprise is also regarded as the "big boss" of plastic products in the local area, and its business reaches the world.Lin Rongzhan, who was born and bred, served as a soldier for four years, but failed to join the party because of "overseas relations" in the army.After being demobilized and returning to Guzhen, he was absorbed into a party member by the party branch of the brigade because of his active performance.It is rare for this farmer who has seen the world to have a heart determined to do a good job in the countryside. "I was born in the countryside, and I would like to make a name for myself in the countryside." We met Lin Rongzhan in a large-scale factory building in an industrial park in the "Dengdu".His opening remarks commanded our respect. "...After the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee, I started my own business. First I contracted a fleet of production teams. After earning a few thousand yuan, I contracted the commune's agricultural machinery factory. In 1983, I took tens of thousands more Qian went to a place other than Zhongshan to contract a brick factory and worked until 1985. I may belong to one of the earliest farmers in the ancient town who "get rich first." Lin Rongzhan, who still maintains a military style, said It’s straightforward, “Some people started to set up factories in Guzhen in the early 1980s, and I also set up a building materials machinery factory after I returned from contracting in other places. In 1993, the lighting industry market here began to heat up. I saw the opportunity and pulled Four relatives of the same family in this village jointly established the "Huaxing Plastic Products Co., Ltd.", and our business is very good. The five shareholders including me have already had an annual income of 1 million yuan in profit per capita by that time. It can be said that I was famous in Guer Village and even in Guzhen Town. At this time, the leader of the town party committee at that time came to me and asked me to be the village party secretary. I did not hesitate and immediately expressed my willingness to return to the village as a cadre. But because I I have 20% of the shares in "Huaxing", and I am the "top leader" of "Huaxing". If I go to the village as the branch secretary, I will no longer be able to participate in business management, and my role and shares will become a problem. Finally, in the town organization Under the coordination of the department, 'Hua Xing' accepted such a plan: my shares in 'Hua Xing' would not change, and all the income I got in the village - wages and bonuses would be handed over to 'Hua Xing', and then 'Hua Xing' would Give me salary and implement the original share distribution. Some people jokingly call me a 'transfer boss'. In fact, I know that the organization asked me to return to the village to lead the people out of poverty and to build a new socialist countryside. "Because our Guer Village is not as close to the town center as Guyi Village, the life of the village committee and the people is not easy. I drove my own car to the village committee the day before I took office. Some villagers were curious, Some people also said that the "entrepreneur" came back to be our home, so he managed it the same way he managed the business? I was very upset when I heard it, and secretly swore that I must use the way I manage the business to manage it well Our village must not let the homeland built by the fathers and folks of our Guer village change the color..." Lin Rongzhan is indeed a capable man in economics.Someone told us: If he hadn't returned to the village to be the village party secretary for 10 years, Lin Rongzhan would have earned tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions, in his own business.However, Lin Rongzhan said that he is a member of the Communist Party. When the organization and villagers need to work hard for his hometown, he is willing to give up his personal business. At that time, Guer Village left Lin Rongzhan with a weak foundation. The only small chemical factory in the village was a joint venture in name, but in fact it was a trick of foreign investors playing tricks on them. "Closed immediately!" Lin Rongzhan made a decisive decision after finding out the fundamentals of this small chemical plant. "Even if you lose some money now, it's better than falling into the big trap that others have dug in advance." He let the villagers understand this truth. The ability of a capable person is extraordinary.Lin Rongzhan, the former village party secretary, aimed at the opportunity for the great development of the lighting industry in Guzhen, and decided to take the lead in establishing the first large-scale industrial park in the "Lighting City" on the land of the village, covering a total area of ​​1,200 mu. "Our Guer Village is far away from the center of the town. If there are no businesses to invest in and set up factories, how will you, Lin Rongzhan, deal with the 1,200 mu of land?" Some villagers' worries are not unreasonable. Lin Rongzhan, who is not tall, waved his strong arms in the direction of the central area of ​​the ancient town, and said loudly: "Fix the road leading to the central area of ​​the ancient town, and you will see the result!" The wide avenue was repaired.The villagers stood at the head of the village looking forward to the "phoenix falling into the nest".Sure enough, within a few days, the first "phoenix" entered the village.With a smile, Lin Rongzhan leased it to the first "Phoenix" that settled in the Gu'er Village Industrial Zone at a low price of 80,000 yuan per mu. so cheap!What is Lin Rongzhan doing?Some villagers doubt Lin Rongzhan's ability. don't worry.Once the first golden phoenix enters the nest, the following phoenixes will be able to continuously lay golden eggs for our village.Listening to Lin Rongzhan's calm words, the villagers half-believed. as expected.In the second year of the industrial park, the rent per mu rose to 150,000 yuan, and the lease period was shortened by 20 years.Three years later, the land in Guer Village doubled the rent of 150,000 yuan per mu to 300,000 yuan, and the lease term was still 50 years. Hahaha... It's amazing, sitting on the ground and collecting money, the wealth is rolling in, and you can't push it away!The people of Gu Er Village were overwhelmed with joy. By 2002, the originally planned 1,200 mu industrial park land had been snatched away by lighting business owners.Lin Rongzhan made a decisive decision to expand the industrial park by adding another 300 mu, and once again introduced a group of enterprises to settle in Gu'er Village.At this point, the villagers were pleasantly surprised to find that our Gu'er Village is not only connected to the central area of ​​the ancient town, but also that the initially formed "Chinese Lamp Capital" has a rather large area on the site of Gu'er Village!Hahaha, the land in Guer Village is worth a lot of money, and our households can also rent out the extra houses to those who want to open shops, factories or migrant workers...money!money!money!The full bag of money has also entered our farmers! "Secretary Lin, where is Secretary Lin? We want to thank Secretary Lin for his wise decision! Where did he go?" The villagers found the office of the village committee, but the comrades in the village office were sullen and told them solemnly: The secretary went to Guangzhou Hospital for electrotherapy... what!Lin Shu remembered why he was sick? it's okay no problem.You see, I am not very good!A car quickly stopped in front of the village committee building. Lin Rongzhan struggled to get out of the car and said to the villagers with a forced smile. Secretary Lin... the villagers were moved. Lin Rongzhan waved to everyone, turned around and entered the conference room again. "Comrades, I'm looking for you today because I want to study an investment project with an investment of more than 50 million yuan, that is, the property management of the largest commercial city that our Guer village plans to buy in Guzhen..." In the conference room, Lin Rongzhan Not like a patient at all. "Those days are very memorable. We were negotiating with the town to sign two large investment projects, but I was found to be seriously ill by the hospital. The doctor asked me to go to Guangzhou for electrotherapy. At this critical moment of investment, I don't have the heart to be hospitalized. Well! Later, I had to think of a way: go to Guangzhou for half a day in the morning for electrotherapy, and rush back to work in the village at noon. 60 days of electrotherapy, every day. In order not to affect my work, I have to go to Guangzhou at 6:00 in the morning every day, and then come back before noon Presided over the work... From 1999 to 2002, it was the most intense and effective year for our Guer Village Industrial Zone to attract investment. I am the village party secretary, and many major decisions have to be made by me. If I don’t do it, who will do it?” Lin Rongzhan said Brushing my hair, I said, "Some people say that I look old because I was busy in those few years..." People in Gu'er Village told us that it was the painstaking efforts of this party secretary who was devoted to the interests of the villagers that Gu'er Village changed from a poor village to one of the wealthiest villages in Guzhen.There is an account that records Lin Rongzhan's achievements: when he first became the village party secretary, the assets of the whole village were less than 2 million yuan. When he left the post of village party secretary in 2002, the collective assets of Guer Village had reached 260 million yuan. "I heard that you took the initiative to give up Xian after you became rich in Gu Er Village?" Lin Rongzhan seemed to be prepared for our questions. "Yes. This question has been asked by many reporters. It is actually very simple: the town party committee and the government asked me to return to the village as a cadre in order to make Gu'er Village rich. Now that Gu'er Village is rich, the future development is also possible Therefore, at the end of 2002, I resigned from the post of village party secretary and gave it to a comrade younger than me.” Lin Rongzhan spoke very calmly, and he regarded the handover of the huge assets of more than 200 million yuan he earned through 10 years of hard work as a A daily handover in the workshop. "We are members of the Communist Party. No matter how great our contribution is, we are also fulfilling the tasks entrusted by the party and the people. There is no need to rest on the credit book and burden ourselves. You see, I am not very good now..." Lin Rongzhan told us, he returned After the company I founded back then, in order not to affect the interest relationship with the original shareholders, I proposed to start a new factory and start from scratch. "Look, this 'Huajin Plastic Factory' is my current enterprise. After three years, it is now the 'second' among the plastic products industry in the lighting accessories industry in Guzhen. The 'boss' was the The 'Huaxing' I founded..." Lin Rongzhan pointed to the rather magnificent factory area of ​​the famous enterprise "Huaxing" in an ancient town just across the road from "Huajin", and was quite proud. Lin Rongzhan gave up his big boss to be a village official, and 10 years later he will create hundreds of millions of wealth and take the initiative to let the virtuous deeds, which is a good story in the ancient town. Mao Zedong had a famous saying: After the political line is determined, cadres are the decisive factor.The town party committee and government's bold use of "bosses" as village chiefs and party secretaries has directly driven Guzhen's rapid and steady development from a backward agricultural town to a lighting industry kingdom with its own industrial characteristics in the past 10 years. forward. The ancient town model seems simple, but it is a brand-new governance measure and concept created by the first-level grassroots organization of the Communist Party of China in exploring the great practice of building a new socialist countryside in the new historical period. Its significance will undoubtedly be It is profound and extensive, but we may not fully know and understand it. Heh, walk out of Guyi Village, out of Guer Village... When we turned back to the "Light Capital" in the central area of ​​the ancient town, it was just at the sunset in the west, and suddenly at the intersection of night and day, the land of the ancient town was lit up with light... That light Reflected for a long time, the entire ancient town is brightly set off as a new round of sun that is radiant and rooted on the earth. It floods all the isolated spaces between towns and villages, and also floods the cycle of time and years.
