"It's no honor to gain an official, no shame to lose an official. Don't say that an official is useless. The place depends on an official. Eat the food of the people and wear the clothes of the people. Don't deceive the people. You are also the people." This is the couplet of loving the people written by Gao Yiyong, a county magistrate who worked in Neixiang County of Henan Province for nine years during the reign of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, warning officials to look down on honor and disgrace, benefit one party, take the people as the heaven and love the people as the body. Ironically, such a couplet advising officials to be indifferent to fame and wealth and care about the people is hung in the luxury villa where Wang Fuyu, a greedy "big tiger", received bribes. On one wall, in addition to this couplet, another couplet given to Wang Fuyu by a boss: "being kind, clean as jade, and rich as an immortal for the people." Among them, he took great pains to hide the word "Fuyu" in the couplet and did his best to flatter and boast it. The words advertised on the wall are in great contrast to the luxury villa obtained from corruption Screenshot of feature film "zero tolerance": the above picture shows the real estate involved by Wang Fuyu, and the following picture shows his words proclaiming his integrity. Recently, the TV feature film "zero tolerance" with anti-corruption theme has been popular. From the "option corruption" of Wang Fuyu, former party secretary and chairman of the CPPCC Guizhou Provincial Committee, to Zhao Yonglian, director of the minimum living security office of the County Civil Affairs Bureau, reaping benefits from poor groups, and then to the "giant rats" who embezzle grain funds and entrap farmers. The feature film truly shows a thought-provoking case of corruption, It is called the annual "anti-corruption blockbuster" and "Confessions of the fallen tiger" by netizens. Corruption has been a social cancer since ancient times. The specific reasons for the demise of each dynasty in Chinese history are very complex, but the root causes are inextricably linked with corruption. From the establishment of political power to the demise of serious corruption, it has become a historical cycle rate that the ruling class of all dynasties can not jump out. The reason is that whether the ancient feudal emperors or the "four families" in modern times, the wealth of the whole country is often appropriated by one family name or several families. In the final analysis, they represent only the interests of a very few people. Even if some of these ruling classes recognize the serious harm of corruption and offer heavy handed anti-corruption such as "peeling last grass", they can not change the fact that the class they represent is the largest corrupt group. Therefore, the rulers of ancient and modern times, anti-corruption is either a temporary cure rather than a permanent cure. After the means of thunder, corruption "spring breeze blows again", or they can't stand the pain of "breaking their wrists" and "skin-deep pain", stop the process of anti-corruption, and all kinds of severe laws have become paper articles. "Only when we have the courage to make our own revolution can we win the initiative of history." Since the 18th CPC National Congress, the CPC Central Committee has promoted the construction of Party style and clean government and the fight against corruption with unprecedented courage and determination, and explored a successful path to jump out of the historical cycle rate by relying on the party's self revolution. Looking around the world, there are few political parties and regimes like the Communist Party of China that dare to cut inward and gouge out rotten flesh. The reason is that the Communist Party of China has never represented the interests of any interest group, any power group or any privileged class, and has always represented the fundamental interests of the overwhelming majority of the people without any special interests of its own. It has always adhered to the foundation and winning way of "the river and the mountain are the people, the people are the river and the mountain, fighting and guarding the river and the mountain, and guarding the heart of the people". Circular on resolutely cleaning corrupt elements (partial). Data map As early as August 1926, the enlarged meeting of the CPC Central Committee specially issued the notice on resolutely cleaning corrupt elements. At that time, it was in the period of the first Kuomintang communist cooperation, and the party's development momentum was good. The total number of Party members was less than 1000 in January 1925 and increased to more than 10000 in April 1926. As pointed out in the document, "in the past year, our party has made rapid development by riding on the climax of the revolution". However, with the growth of strength, there is also a crisis of impure team. Our party is keenly aware that with the expansion of the number of Party members, "speculative corrupt elements" took the opportunity to mix into the revolutionary team, and there were acts of embezzlement of public property, embezzlement of public funds, corruption and degeneration. The document said: "if a revolutionary party includes these elements, it will certainly corrupt its party, not only can it not carry out revolutionary work, but will be hated by the masses." For these Corruptors and speculators, it is necessary to "wash out the party without mercy, and do not leave the party, corrupt the party and undermine the party's prestige among the masses". Soon after this document was issued, it effectively curbed the emerging signs of corruption. The nature and purpose of our party determine that the party is incompatible with corruption. From Wang Fuyuan, the "first person" expelled from the party due to corruption, to Ruijin, who investigated and punished Xie Busheng during the Soviet Area, to the "first shot" to punish corruption, from the "first anti-corruption case of the Republic" in which Liu Qingshan and Zhang Zishan were executed after the founding of new China, to the unprecedented efforts to "fight tigers", "shoot flies" and "hunt foxes" in the new era, so as to promote the comprehensive and strict governance of the party, Zhengfeng anti-corruption is a difficult and protracted war. It can be said that from the beginning of its establishment, there were only more than 50 party members, to today, the world's largest political party with more than 95 million Party members and long-term governance in a large country with a population of more than 1.4 billion, the Communist Party of China has maintained a valuable soberness in the face of corruption. This soberness not only requires our party to constantly eliminate all viruses that erode the party's healthy body with various systems, but also requires every Party member to always remember the original mission and ensure their own purity. *** Shen Jizhong *** "Everything in the world is accomplished in fear and lost in ignorance." As a communist, we should fear Party discipline, national law and, ultimately, the people. Our party uses thunderbolt means to control the "stock" of corruption and eradicate the "increment" of corruption. Basically, every Party member should bear in mind his original intention and mission. In contrast, the confession of corrupt officials in the feature film: "I don't know what to do with money. I don't worry about food and drink. What do you want money for, bury you!" "The original mission is gone, and even the sense of awe is gone later." "unexpectedly, they have become a destroyer of the construction of the rule of law or fairness and justice"... The fortress is most easily broken from the inside. When they embark on the road of politics, they may be able to forge ahead and be honest, but with the promotion of their posts, they can not resist the erosion of bad atmosphere, so they slowly abandon their original intention He gave up his adherence to Party discipline and state law and finally stood on the opposite side of the party and the people. The painful lesson warns every Party member, especially leading cadres, that only when they are afraid can they stop. A hundred years' journey, the waves wash away the sand. Whether a political party is great or not depends not on whether it makes mistakes or not, but on whether it dares to face up to its mistakes, stand upright and correct its mistakes, and create a new situation. The Communist Party of China has proved with a hundred years of practical experience that corruption is not an incurable "political cancer". As long as we fight corruption with an iron hand, we can deeply strengthen the hearts and minds of the party and the people, because if we do not offend hundreds of corrupt elements, we will offend 1.4 billion people. This is an understandable political account and popular account. (written by Zhao Lei, Li Jiaqi) (outlook new era)
