Fight the battle of talent and take the initiative —— Representatives and members of the military spoke freely about the in-depth implementation of the strategy of strengthening the military with talents in the new era ■ PLA Daily reporter Liu Jianwei, Zhu Boyan The people's army marched forward, and the horn of strengthening the army with talents urged the expedition. "Talent is the key factor to promote the high-quality development of our army, win military competition and take the initiative in future wars. It is of great practical and far-reaching historical significance to realize the party's goal of building a strong army in the new era and build our army into a world-class army in an all-round way." *** *** The orientation of talent training is more distinct "Due to the outstanding training results of myself and my company, I was exceptionally promoted to battalion commander." Referring to the new atmosphere of talent training in the army in recent years, representative Yin Dong from a base of the rocket army often cited his own personal experience as an example. As the upsurge of military training and war preparation continues to heat up, the war atmosphere of the whole army is becoming stronger and stronger, and more and more grass-roots commanders who have outstanding performance in military training and war preparation stand out. From the regulations on the selection and assessment of cadres introduced in recent years shown by representative Yin Dong to reporters, it can be seen that "grass-roots experience", "military assessment results" and "performance of major tasks" have become high-frequency words for selection and employment in the new era. "The evaluation and use of cadres must be based on actual achievements, and use those talents who want to fight, plan to fight and can fight, so as to effectively stimulate the enthusiasm of officers and soldiers to participate in military training and preparation for war." Deputy Yin Dong was deeply touched by this. In recent years, the missile launching battalion of his unit has broken the practice of using officers as the commander of missile launchers, and selected non commissioned officers with professional skills and strong command ability. All of them have achieved good results in major training activities. Looking at the whole army, it has become a consensus to select people according to the war. During the two sessions, representatives and members of the armed forces exchanged views on the new atmosphere of each other's forces: in a support team in the Western Theater, a group of young staff officers who had just obtained the "duty qualification certificate" for joint Posts took up positions; In a communications brigade of the air force in the eastern theater, a group of sergeants with excellent professional quality entered the "technical expert group" for the first time; In a long-range rocket battalion, the gunner of Electrical Engineer type and the gunner of information Engineer type have extraordinary skills. "The focus of training is on fighting, the focus of construction is on being good at fighting, and the selection criteria highlight winning the war." Deputy Jiang Guoping said with deep feeling that at present, the whole army has taken rigid measures to promote the combat effectiveness standard, and made the selection of talents hard and practical. The war standard has been refined to every evaluation element, so that the cadres tempered by major war training tasks can be selected first, and a clear orientation of "those who can fight stay, those who are good at fighting and those who win the war" has been established. Military personnel training has a strong flavor of war, and the guidance of military academies in studying and teaching war is also very clear. A military representative from the University of national defense science and technology told reporters that the teaching and scientific research concept of being close to the army and actual combat is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The classroom topics focus on the front line of military training and preparation, and the topic selection of papers meets the needs of combat has become a style of study. Deepen reform and continuously optimize the policy and institutional system "We should promote the optimization of military human resources policy and system and strengthen the construction of supporting policies and systems." *** In recent years, the reform of military human resources policies and systems has been steadily promoted, and a number of policies and regulations have been issued one after another. The talent work of our army has shown a new atmosphere and opened up a new situation. "My comrades in arms and I are the direct beneficiaries of these new policies and systems." Looking back on the achievements made in the reform of military human resources policies and systems in recent years, the deepest feeling of representative Jiang Buzhu from grass-roots units is "fast"—— In November 2018, four days after the Central Military Commission's work conference on policy and system reform was held, the list of policies and systems issued immediately before was released, and the list of nearly 30 policies and systems was on credit; 20 days later, the first six policies and systems were officially introduced; Another month later, the second batch of seven policies and systems were issued *** The army immediately put forward measures for implementation: ensure that scientific and technological personnel directly engage in scientific and technological work for an average of no less than 4.5 working days per week; Ensure that the grade allowance and performance allowance of scientific and technological personnel are paid in full and in time in accordance with the regulations, and the standard shall not be reduced at will, or even cancelled or retained; Ensure that scientific and technological personnel devote their main energy to scientific and technological innovation and R & D activities Building a first-class talent team calls for first-class systems and mechanisms. With the introduction of a large number of policies and systems, the military human resources policy and system system has been continuously optimized—— In December 2020, the Central Military Commission issued the Interim Regulations on the administration of officers in active service and 11 supporting policies and systems, marking a major breakthrough in the reform of the military officer system and substantive progress in the establishment of a professional officer system with Chinese characteristics. On August 1, 2021, the law of the people's Republic of China on the protection of the status and rights and interests of military personnel came into force, which provides a legal guarantee for enhancing the attractiveness, cohesion and combat effectiveness of the people's army from the national legal level. Policies on visiting, consolation and relief work, military convalescence, preferential treatment for military children's education, support subsidies for military parents, honorary payments for spouses, medical treatment guarantee for military personnel and military related personnel have been issued. "These policies and systems are both exhilarating and warm-hearted, so that soldiers have status and enjoy tangible benefits." Said the representative of slender Zhi. The new era calls for new ideas and new measures give birth to a new atmosphere. With the deepening of the reform of military human resources policies and systems, the reorganization and optimization of the talent structure of the people's army, the talent system has taken on a new look, the power of the talent team has doubled, and a new picture of talent work is slowly unfolding. Broaden our thinking and make the layout of military talents more scientific "Compared with military academy education and military training practice, military vocational education can realize the benign interaction between military and civilian personnel training in a larger space, at a higher level and in a wider field." Xie Zhengyi, a representative from a brigade of the army, said that the science of his brigade uses the military comprehensive network service platform of military vocational education, so that officers and soldiers can learn courses they are interested in anytime and anywhere after training. Since the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the new military talent training system integrating military academy education, military training practice and military vocational education has been improved, which has effectively assisted the large-scale training of talents and promoted the formation of a good situation supporting officers and soldiers' on-the-job learning and lifelong learning. While taking the road of cultivating talents independently, the channels for introducing talents into the people's army are becoming wider and wider. Deputy Wang Huishan told reporters that the educational background of his comrades in arms is becoming richer and richer, and "gathering talents from all over the world for use" is gradually becoming a reality in the vast military camp. Today, the military's high-level scientific and technological innovation talent project continues to advance, a number of high-level scientific and technological innovation teams have been formed, and a echelon of leading scientific and technological talents, top-notch disciplinary talents and young scientific and technological talents has been formed. Zang Jihui, a member from the front line of scientific research, felt the same way: in the front line of major national and military scientific research projects, our military's scientific and technological talents are active in overcoming difficulties; In key fields such as military theory, weapons and equipment and information technology, a large number of scientific research achievements have become new growth points of combat effectiveness. The organic integration of high-end talents and innovative projects has injected inexhaustible power into strengthening the army through science and technology. "We should make good use of talents in all aspects, adhere to the principle of taking use as the basis, allocate military human resources accurately and efficiently, and ensure the best allocation of talents and give full play to their maximum efficiency." *** Last year, his unit took an active part in exploring effective methods for accurate and scientific selection of leading groups, highlighting combat forces and new combat forces, adhering to strict standards, promoting exchanges, selecting the best among the best, and making the layout of talents more scientific. The reporter learned from the exchange with the representative members of the military: at a joint training base of the Navy, a large number of professional group training talents are coming to the fore by strengthening exchanges and cooperation with various services and arms and training according to the mode of "going out to learn and inviting in to teach"; A department of the strategic support force has signed joint talent training agreements with a number of colleges and universities to lay a solid foundation for making good use of talents; An aviation repair factory of the air force has established a talent studio led by skill experts to forge a high-quality practical support talent team *** (PLA Daily, Beijing, March 8) Outlook New Era
