"Do you think you are the masses?" He said.
I said: "in front of the masses, I am a small cadre, but in front of secretary Qiao, I will always be the masses."
Qiao Shida looked at me, pondered for a while, and said: "since you are studying in the middle-aged and young class, I will test you. What is the mass line of the party?"
Without hesitation, I replied: "the party's mass line is all for the masses, all relying on the masses, coming from the masses and going to the masses. Its theoretical basis is the principle of repeated circulation and infinite development of practice, cognition, re practice and re cognition in Marxist epistemology and the principle of historical materialism that the people are the creators of history. "
"What do you think is the essence of the mass line?" Josta asked me again.
"Basically, there are two problems: how to serve the mass line." I went on to answer.
"Are these all the things you learned in your textbooks?" Joshua frowned slightly.
I nodded, "yes."
"Learning theory should be combined with practice, and the things in theory should be applied to practice. Only in this way can we really learn something." He said.
"Well Joe is right I nodded.
"I appreciate your speech at the founding commendation conference that day, which is divorced from the empty preaching and practice! It's a real experience from practice. " He said.
"Ha ha..." I gave a modest smile. In fact, it's all thanks to Qiutong.
"In combination with your usual study and your usual time, how can we follow the mass line in the new era?" He said.
Obviously, he wanted to test me and observe me.
I thought about it and said, "big trees are rooted in fertile soil, and tall buildings are based on footstones. The people are our most powerful backing. It is the foundation for our party to remain invincible forever to come from, take root in and serve the people. General Secretary Hu once pointed out: only when we put the masses in mind, the masses will put us in mind; only when we treat the masses as relatives, the masses will treat us as relatives. Therefore, it is the people's livelihood and the people's expectation to take the initiative to go deep into the masses and get along with them. "
"Well..." Joshua nodded.
I continued: "the new era also puts forward higher requirements for our work and requires us to do more. The mass line in the new era is not simply to go to the countryside, but to make friends with the people sincerely. We should take the initiative to go deep into the masses, be close friends of the masses, treat the masses as our relatives, and take the common people's firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea as the top priority of our work.
"The mass line in the new era is not simply to send warmth, but to ask leaders at all levels to pay attention to the people's livelihood at all times. Think about what the masses think, worry about what the masses worry about, and solve the difficulties of the masses, so as to really do practical things for the people and really solve their problems.
"The mass line in the new era is not a simple propaganda policy, but a way for leaders at all levels to actively mobilize the enthusiasm of the masses into production and life. Actively mobilize the enthusiasm of the masses, absorb the wisdom of the masses into the policy design, so that the top-level and middle-level design of reform can be relatively more scientific and complete, and give full play to the enthusiasm of the masses.
"The mass line in the new period is not a simple material support, but a combination of material and spiritual cultural construction. In the new era, the grass-roots cultural needs are no longer simply watching and listening to plays. With the progress of the times, the grass-roots cultural needs are constantly improving. While strengthening the construction of hardware at the grass-roots level, we also need to drive the construction of spiritual civilization at the grass-roots level and develop the cultural life at the grass-roots level. "
I focused on talking and used several parallelism.
"Well..." There was a satisfied expression on his face and he nodded.
"In the new era, new requirements, the times have put forward higher requirements for us to follow the mass line from a more scientific perspective. Everything for the masses, everything depends on the masses, from the masses, to the masses. At any time, the masses are our most powerful backing, which is also the source of strength for our party to maintain its vitality.
"In the new era and new tasks, the party has put forward higher requirements for us to work for the masses from a more reasonable angle, rely on the masses and serve the masses. The masses are our most solid support in any era, and this is also the inexhaustible driving force for our party to remain invincible forever. In a word, the reputation of the people is not as good as the gold cup and silver cup. Only when the people are satisfied, our work will get the best test. "
There was a smile on Joshua's face and he said, "well, that's a good answer."
I was relieved and said, "thank you for your praise What I have done is not enough. I need to constantly strengthen my theoretical study and make better use of the theoretical knowledge I have learned in practice. "
"Xiaoyi, do you think we should follow the mass line in the selection and appointment of cadres?" Joshua asked me another question. He's still testing me.
Qiao Shida's question is right in my heart. I'm here for the purpose of cadre selection. He's finally getting closer to my topic.I said, "yes! In selecting cadres, we must follow the mass line. In selecting cadres, we must believe in the vision of the masses, rely on their ability, and embody their will. "
Qiao Shida smiles: "how to choose cadres to follow the mass line?"
I know it's very important to pass Qiao Shida's question tonight. It's very important for me and Qiu Tong.
Qiao Shida is not a cadre with a bag of wine and rice. He has goods in his stomach. I must take his questions seriously and answer them carefully. His questions to me are more important than the investigation of the organization department. If the answer is not good, my efforts tonight will fall short, and even the good impression I left him will be wiped out.
Since I'm here tonight, I'll give up.
I thought about it and said, "since all power belongs to the people, and since social masters have the right to choose social public servants, then the masses should enjoy four rights around the selection and use of cadres."
"What four rights?" Asked Joshua with great interest.
I said, "the right to know, the right to participate, the right to choose, the right to supervise."
"What is the right to know?" He said.
I said: "that is to make it open to the masses and enhance transparency. People's affairs are natural, and the selection of cadres is aboveboard. There is no need to hide them and make them mysterious. As far as a unit is concerned, we should let the masses have a clear idea of what level of cadres are lacking, how many places are available, what are the conditions, when to select and so on. Only through open selection and competition can the work of cadres be vigorous. The situation in which a small number of people operate and the broad masses do not know about it cannot happen. "
"Ha ha, what is the right to participate?" He said.
I said: "that is to let the masses get involved and reflect the status of masters. In a socialist country, where is the people's ownership of the country? It is reflected in participating in the management of state affairs according to law. Participating in the selection and appointment of cadres is not only an important political right, but also a concentrated embodiment of the master's status.
"On the one hand, it is strange to admit that the masses are the masters of society and the cadres are the public servants. On the other hand, when selecting the public servants, it turns the masters out of the door and turns them into spectators! Only by letting the masses participate in the management of major affairs can we fully mobilize the enthusiasm of the masses and give full play to their creativity. "
"Well..." Qiao Shida nodded: "option, what do you think?"
I said: "that is to ask the masses to express their position and reflect public opinion. Knowing and participating are not results, but premises, not ends, but means. The final result and goal is to select cadres who are qualified, have both political integrity and ability, and are welcomed and supported by the masses. To this end, we should give the masses the right to choose. We should not only let the masses speak, but also keep their word. Naturally, the appointment of our cadres is under the unified leadership of the Party committee.
"It is not only a practical problem, but also a difficult problem to deal with the relationship between the opinions of the leaders and the masses, the decision-making power of the Party committee and the choice power of the masses. We should pursue the harmony between the opinions of the leaders and the masses. Of course, differences of opinion are inevitable, but if the leaders and the masses always disagree, it is worth studying; if the opinions of the leaders and the masses are diametrically opposed, it is even more worth considering. "
Qiao Shida pondered for a while and said, "supervision right, what do you think?"
I said, "let the masses be the Commission for Discipline Inspection and always effectively supervise the cadres. Cadre selection is a systematic project. We should not attach importance to the use and neglect the training, let alone the appointment without supervision. Giving up supervision over cadres will only harm them. Of course, it is necessary to supervise the leadership and the relevant departments. However, the most direct, extensive and powerful supervision comes from the masses.
"As long as the masses have the right to score cadres, to decide their advance and retreat, to reward and punish them according to their usual performance, to lift them up and to pull them down, cadres will certainly be much more cautious. Why don't some cadres pay attention to the masses? Why are you only responsible for the top, not the bottom? It's because the masses can't decide his fate, and they don't matter to him. "
"Well, well said!" Qiao Shida laughed: "Xiaoyi, recently our city is selecting and adjusting county-level Deputy county-level cadres, do you know?"
I nodded: "yes, our group also has investigation objects. The investigation group of the Organization Department has been there twice and talked to us alone."
"Well It seems that there is a quota in Qiutong group. Do you have an investigation list? "
I nodded: "yes!"
"What do you think of Comrade Qiu Tong?" He said.
I said: "Qiutong, I say she is good or bad in front of you. In fact, it doesn't matter. The key is the result of the investigation team of the Organization Department, which is the reaction of the real intention of the masses and the real public opinion."
"Let's not talk about the results of the investigation team of the organization department for the time being. I just want to ask you, do you think Comrade Qiu Tong is good or bad?" Joshua looked at me.
