Chapter 425 Lawn Talk
,
Fang Sheng and Bai Ling were both shocked.
Since Bai Ling met Fang Sheng, Xiaobao has been in school, and Mr. Bai has never seen Fang Sheng. Even when Fang Sheng built Jiangbei New City in Jiangye and attracted attention from all parties, Mr. Bai refused to give in.
Why did you go to the sanatorium to meet in person this time?
"Where is it?" Bai Ling asked.
The nurse pointed casually and saw that on the lawn behind the inpatient building, Mr. Bai was standing leisurely under the tree and chatting with the guards. The sun was very bright outside, and the old man was in a good mood. He stretched his arms from time to time and laughed heartily.
"I'll go with you." Bai Ling was worried that Fang Sheng would be scolded, so she put on her clothes and got out of bed.
The nurse stopped him and said, "The old leader said that Secretary Fang would go alone."
Fang Sheng patted her and smiled and said, "Don't worry, this is not the first time I have met an older generation of proletarian revolutionaries. Even if I get scolded for a few words, it's nothing."
Bai Ling bulged her cheeks and said, "I was staring at the window. I was scolded and called a signal. I'll go down to disrupt the situation!"
“Not that serious.”
Having said that, when Fang Sheng stood on the battlefield of the past, the old soldier who charged in the battle still felt an invisible sense of oppression.
"Grandpa, I am Xiao Fang..."
Old Master Bai turned to his side and glanced at him. He felt his eyes penetrated into his internal organs, and a cold air spread from point to face. Fang Sheng resisted the discomfort and kept calm looking at the other person.
"This is your first time coming to visit after Xiao Ling was hospitalized?" asked Mr. Bai.
Fang Sheng said respectfully: "Report to grandpa that the situation in Shunba was very tense some time ago, and a large number of affairs were urgently waiting to be handled. Later, the provincial military region helped, coupled with internal factors, and finally came to an end this month..."
"I heard that with your efforts, the evil forces in Shunba have been basically eliminated, and the internal reference has been sent to the Kyoto Standing Committee members. You have made great efforts on this issue!"
Fang Sheng was very shocked.
"Grandpa, I never thought that the issue of the evil forces in Shunba would alarm the central government. I have always treated it as my own job. I always felt that if I couldn't take over that group of people, it would be my own failure in the future, and I would also be sorry for the cadres and masses who still have conscience in Shunba..."
"This attitude is very good. If you always think about official positions and always gain political benefits, I won't see you today!" Mr. Bai said majesticly.
"I'm sorry to Xiaoling. I have made many mistakes. I will make up for my own shortcomings in the future and move forward steadily." Fang Sheng reviewed.
Mr. Bai glared at him fiercely: "You know your appearance and take the initiative to admit your mistakes! Xiaoling is my favorite granddaughter. Who dares to be detrimental to her? I will sacrifice my life to let him go to hell!"
"Communist members are all atheists and do not believe in hell." Fang Sheng said quickly.
Mr. Bai was stunned, and his tense face smiled: "Hey, you are very interesting. You often joke with your subordinates?"
"When I was a college student village official in Fangtang Village, Santan Town, I mastered a rule. If I can't speak official language with the grassroots people, I must get along with them, pull weeds in the fields, harvest crops, and bury wheat fields together. This way, I can just shout if I have something to do. It's much better than just sternly speaking." Fang Sheng knew that these old leaders who lived in Kyoto Courtyard were interested in the grassroots things. Last time, the old man discussed a lot about Fangtang Village.
Sure enough, Mr. Bai's face became more and more relaxed, and he said, "I heard that Fangtang Village was your first stop before taking off, and college student village officials are also your advantage that is different from other officials. I want to know if it is a must for grassroots officials to go deep into rural villages and groups?"
"It can only be said that it is sufficient but unnecessary. Many cadres who have no rural experience have equally excellent work. However, leaders who involve the word "agricultural" should be practiced personally. After all, the situation in rural areas and cities is very different. China is a country dominated by agriculture, so many things cannot avoid the word "agricultural".
"Yes, the word "agricultural" cannot be avoided. There is a trend of thought that always mentions urbanization. It seems that the bigger and more prosperous the city, the countryside can be ignored! But I forgot that most of China's vast territory is rural, and cities are based on rural areas! It makes sense for Chairman Mao to propose that the countryside surround the city!"
Mr. Bai became more and more excited as he spoke, and waved his hands and said loudly.
Fang Sheng smiled and said, "So the advantage of college student village officials is to be down-to-earth and truly understand the farmers' ideas. In the future, no matter which level of cadre they are, at least in rural and agricultural issues, they will not make low-level mistakes, and make things that look like donkeys, not horses, and are not like four things."
"It makes sense..." Mr. Bai said, "I went to a province a few days ago and the county leaders invited me to attend a live meeting of the agricultural economic organization. I went to see that they were all suits and ties, greasy noodles, and they didn't look like farmers? It was obvious that a bunch of fooling brokers! I was most disgusted with the flowery airs. I only sat for five minutes and left, hum!"
"Organizations such as agricultural economics, agricultural cooperatives, and agricultural associations have a good starting point. Let professionals do professional things, be responsible for management, marketing, and market expansion, and liberate farmers from specializing in farming. Unfortunately, they changed their flavor later. These organizations became profit-making institutions with official backgrounds, exploiting farmers in disguise and reselling, which completely violated their original intentions," said Fang Sheng. "In Shunba, I first took the acquisition station that monopolized the purchase of agricultural and sideline products, and introduced foreign buyers to gradually transition to marketization, with the fundamental purpose of allowing farmers to benefit."
"Well, not bad," Mr. Bai nodded frequently, "The intermediary agency has become a monopoly agency, and this trend is undesirable..."
The two of them scattered on the lawn for a while, and Mr. Bai asked about Shunba's official adjustments, economic development direction, etc. Fang Sheng explained the recent work and the medium-term plan, and emphasized that the construction of the three highways was put first, and it would rather affect the economic growth rate in the short term than lay the foundation for Shunba's rapid development in the next five and ten years.
"As an official, the idea of seeking success and profit is the most unsatisfactory, but the current promotion and appointment system depends on political achievements. This is also a real contradiction." Mr. Bai sighed.
Fang Sheng didn't want to criticize the current problems in front of Mr. Bai, so he kept silent tactfully. He turned his head to look at the ward quietly. He saw Bai Ling lying focused on the window. He hid his hand behind him and made an OK gesture.
After walking silently for a while, Mr. Bai asked, "What are the plans next?"
It seems that everyone is concerned about this issue, from Ainya to Yu Daoming, Su Zhaorong, etc., because compared with Huang Hai and Jiang Ye, Fang Sheng's success in Shunba is more dazzling, and his success is unexpected.
"First of all, laying a solid foundation for economic construction. It has always been easy to destroy and difficult to build. After destroying evil forces, the people must truly experience the real benefits, otherwise someone will say strange things. Secondly, cultivate and appoint a group of cadres who can do things and want to do things, push them to leadership positions, and complete Shunba's metabolism; and... "
