Many cases of profiteering by taking advantage of power are thought-provoking. Only when you are in awe can you keep power "After having power, I thought I had got rid of the constraints of discipline and law. My whole person was blown up like a balloon and began to float into the air. I broke away from the constraints of the red line of discipline and law and floated higher and higher until I watched myself destroy and disappear in the air." This is the confession of Zhang Biao, former deputy secretary of the Party committee and former executive deputy director of the Management Committee of Delingha Industrial Park, Qaidam circular economy Experimental Zone, Qinghai Province. During his tenure in Delingha, Zhang Biao did not hide his desire for money, indulged himself and amassed more than 40 million yuan in four and a half years. "Once the power is in hand, make the order and earn the money" is Zhang Biao's goal in life. He put the power in his hand "clearly priced", and every time he provided help to private business owners, he would immediately call for the benefit fee, without concealment or scruples. After being examined and investigated, he once described himself as: "my three outlooks are distorted. I have always talked about 'not seeking eternity, but only having once' and 'having power, you have to have money'. The Communists have no faith, fail to live up to the cultivation of the organization, and finally go to the road of self destruction. It's hateful and sad!" If there is a deviation in the concept of power, it will not stand the test of power, resulting in abuse of power for personal gain, corruption and perversion of the law. It can be seen from the disciplinary and illegal cases investigated and dealt with that Zhang Biao was far more than one person who failed in the face of interests and temptations, destroyed his career and family and was in prison because he could not keep his power. Some believe in everything, look to money, expand their selfish desires, and borrow power to make money. Li Shengfa, former member of the Party group and deputy director of Gansu Provincial Department of industry and information technology, was greedy and obsessed with money. He regarded "being an official and making a fortune" as his pursuit of life. In the face of "hunting", he failed to resist the temptation, gradually transformed into a slave of money and a prisoner of desire, and accepted bribes of more than 22 million yuan. In his youth, Li Wei, former member of the Party group and vice mayor of Urumqi municipal government of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, established the wrong outlook on life and values of "money is everything and relationship is supreme", and took the pursuit of maximizing economic interests as his goal. Some regard the public power given by the party and the people as personal tools, turn their work units into personal plots, and act willfully. Liu Jixiong, former party secretary and chairman of Hunan Changsha pilot Investment Holding Group Co., Ltd., in order to control the project bidding right of the group and its subsidiaries, without collective research, successively arranged 19 relatives and friends to enter the group and its subsidiaries to hold important positions, turning the state-owned enterprise into a "family private enterprise". Some rely on their own resources and eat whatever they rely on. He Xingxiang, former member of the Party committee and vice president of China Development Bank, made loans to management and service objects to obtain large returns, and made use of his position to make profits for others in loan financing, enterprise operation, entry and employment, etc. Zhou zhenxue, former deputy secretary of the Party committee and director of the State-owned Forest Administration Bureau in the east of Tianshan, Xinjiang, relied on forests to eat forests. He used his power that should have been used to protect and manage forests to grab benefits, help others contract management and protection center construction projects, and grant Tourism development projects to others... Even major projects related to forest safety, such as forest fire prevention monitoring and comprehensive management of key forest fire risks, have become tools for him to realize his power. Some are arbitrary and arrogant, and the "top leader" has become a "bully". Qin yabing, former Secretary of the Party group and former director of the Council of supply and marketing cooperatives of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, has worked in the supply and marketing cooperatives for more than ten years. He is headstrong and domineering. He has not held meetings to collectively study major issues for four consecutive years. Deng Jipeng, former deputy secretary of the Party Working Committee and former director of the Management Committee of Yichun economic and Technological Development Zone, Jiangxi Province, became more and more angry with his promotion, and his subordinates dared not speak loudly when they saw him; Unless he is happy and reports to his office for no more than 5 minutes, he will be "ignorant and scolded". The cover of the front car is a lesson for the rear. These "living teaching materials" warn us that as Party members and cadres, we should always maintain the awe of power and recognize that the essence of power is responsibility and the nature of power is for the people. The power given by the party and the people can only be used to share the worries of the party, work for the country and seek profits for the people. To guard the power level, Party members and leading cadres should constantly strengthen the exercise of party spirit, improve the cultivation of party spirit, solve the problem of who uses power and seeks profits for whom ideologically, and establish a correct concept of power. Recently, the Zhengzhou municipal Party committee of Henan Province held a meeting to convey and study a typical case notification from the provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and supervision. "Party members and leading cadres must never have their own idea of 'being superior to others'. They should take their posts as a platform, recognize that their duties are their duties, consciously be' servants of the people ', have more awe of their power, and must not abuse their power and abuse their power for personal gain." Lu Yun, member of the Standing Committee of Zhengzhou municipal Party committee, Secretary of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection and acting director of the Supervision Commission, said in his discussion speech. Keeping power is inseparable from strong supervision, especially taking the "key minority" as the key object of supervision. In order to effectively strengthen the supervision of the "top leaders", the supervision commission of Hunan Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection issued the "ten must be strict" for the discipline inspection and supervision organs of the whole province to strengthen the supervision of the "top leaders". "Power operation" is one of the "ten must be strict". Discipline inspection and supervision organs are required to listen to the reflection of the same team members and management service objects on the exercise of power by the "top leaders", check the implementation of democratic centralism, "three important and one big" collective decision-making, "the last position of the" top leaders "and other systems, and record the relevant information in the clean government archives in time; The Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission and the head of the discipline inspection and supervision team stationed in the region (unit) shall make a special report to the superior (dispatched) discipline inspection and supervision organ every year on the exercise of power by the "top leaders" of the region (unit). Strictly educate, manage and supervise young cadres to improve their immunity against corruption and degeneration. In view of the characteristics of highly educated, young and active cadres in recent years, the supervision committee of Chengdu Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection of Sichuan Province recently held a special symposium for young cadres, requiring young comrades to be aware of fear, cultivate themselves diligently and always maintain their integrity.
