Chapter 1563 Ways to Cure Corruption ([-])

Seeing that Liu Juan and Geng Xiaoli were dizzy, Zhao Jianhui smiled and continued: "Fortunately, with the expansion of social wealth, the political and social civilization of the United States is also advancing, and the anti-corruption process is slow and progressive. Effective. Executive anti-corruption has been at the forefront of this process, and it has something to do with an unfortunate American president, Republican Garfield."

"Garfield was determined to abolish the party spoils system before he was elected president, but on July 1881, 7, less than four months into the White House, he was assassinated by an unsuccessful seeker. The murderer believed that Garfield He deserved to be elected president. Garfield passed away a little over two months later."

"Garfield's death sparked national outrage in the United States. 'Every class and class speaks of this event every day with anxiety, humiliation, and loathing,'" historian Paul amp;amp; #8226; The reformists took the opportunity to strengthen the guidance of public opinion. The American "National Weekly" published an editorial saying, "There is no newspaper that we have seen that does not think that this crime is a product of the spoils system to some extent."

"Soon, the climax of a reform movement came. In January 1883, the U.S. Congress passed the "Pendleton Federal Civil Service Act", that is, "A Act to Manage and Improve the Civil Service System in the United States", which was the first in the history of the United States. For the first time, ability and merit were established as the basis for hiring officials, and civil servants could not be dismissed for political reasons such as political party affiliation. Since then, the United States has passed a series of anti-corruption laws, such as the "Tillman Act" in 1, which for the first time prohibited companies and national banks from Provide donations to candidates for public office; pass the "Federal Anti-Corruption Act" in 1907, which opened the beginning of the US official property declaration system."

"In addition, the news media has also contributed a lot to the anti-corruption in the United States. From 1870 to 1920, the proportion of independent urban newspapers in the United States increased from 11% to 62%. Corruption is a hot topic in the news, attracting the attention of journalists. general attention."

"The famous journalist Lincoln • Stephens once set out from Missouri City to investigate the political situation in 6 cities including Minneapolis along the way, and published the reality of political and business collusion in "McClure" which he was the editor-in-chief In 1904, it was compiled into a book "The Shame of the City", which was sold well in the United States. Stephens and other shady whistleblowers made the whole society aware of the seriousness and harm of corruption through their own investigations and articles."

"Multiple efforts have resulted in positive results in anti-corruption in the United States. The 'corruption index' curve of the United States from 1815 to 1975 that I mentioned earlier shows that the United States once had the lowest level of 1914 around 0.16, although in the 20s there was another It increased to 20, but then, until the mid-0.274s, roughly at the 20 level, the United States stopped corruption.”

Sighing, Zhao Jianhui said quietly: "In the capitalist country of America, there are actually many things worth learning. However, we have been shouting for many years, and officials have been clamoring for property announcements, but they still haven't been introduced. This can't be done." Not to mention that we are subject to too many constraints and have too many concerns... Even in Hong Kong, the ICAC's supervision function is theoretically no better than that of our Discipline Inspection Commission to supervise these departments, but they can do it Very good, this must make us think carefully..."

Just as she was talking, Geng Xiaoli's cell phone rang, and after answering the call, she couldn't help but burst into a wry smile.Zhao Jianhui smiled and shook his head: "Why, you haven't arranged for her yet?" Geng Xiaomin urged his sister to arrange work for him on the phone just now, but Zhao Jianhui's ears are good, but he has already heard it.

Geng Xiaoli smiled and replied: "Knowing that you agree to arrange a job for her in Nanyue, it's as if you have received an imperial edict. You use your words to suppress me all day long, saying that if you are not satisfied with the arrangement, you will sue me."

Zhao Jianhui laughed loudly and got up: "Let's go, let's eat first. In my opinion, then arrange her to the traffic police team to grind her temper."

After the three of them finished their meal, Zhao Jianhui squinted in the office lounge for a while, and Li Jiajia was the first to walk into the office after work in the afternoon.Zhao Jianhui naturally knew that Li Jiajia might come back to visit him, but he didn't expect that she would come in the afternoon after the standing committee meeting was finished this morning.

No matter what she came here to do, but, could it be that she didn't estimate Ma Yulin's feelings?It takes courage to dare to walk into your own office at this time.

"Minister Li is here, please sit down. Liu Ming pours water..." Looking at Li Jiajia, who is still in her fifties, Zhao Jianhui greeted with a smile.

"Thank you, Secretary Zhao. Don't bother Secretary Liu. I'm not thirsty..." Li Jiajia sat down on the sofa while talking, and waited for Liu Ming to pour the water and said thank you, and then waited for Liu Ming to go out , then smiled and said: "Secretary Zhao, I want to report to you about the Spring Festival Gala..."

From Li Jiajia's voice, Zhao Jianhui could tell that Li Jiajia had put a lot of effort into this year's welcome party, and even now, she has no intention of giving up.After all, this is something she has been busy with for more than half a year. She has invested a lot of energy and spent a lot of money. Public opinion in the whole province has already been created. If the party is not held, it will be a heavy blow to her prestige. hit.

For officials her age, no one wants to see that kind of result.I remember when I met Secretary Zhao at the Nanhai Hotel, he said that he could help me if needed.

In addition, Zhao Jianhui obviously took the initiative to let her go at the Standing Committee today, and Li Jiajia naturally knew it well.But because of Ma Yulin's relationship, it is obviously unrealistic to say that Li Jiajia immediately turned to Zhao Jianhui because of this incident, but on the premise of not affecting the relationship with Ma Yulin, he and Zhao Jianhui got a little closer , it's not absolutely impossible.

Therefore, today Li Jiajia took the initiative to find her and reported her views on the welcome party, expressing very euphemistically that she wanted Zhao Jianhui to help.

Zhao Jianhui listened with a smile all the time, and after Li Jiajia finished speaking, he said: "Holding such a party is very good for promoting and displaying Nanyue. In the current situation, it seems that it is not easy to successfully hold a high-quality party. However, it depends on human effort. I can help you contact a few people in the entertainment industry, but I don’t know if I can help you. Hehe, if Lin Xuanling attends our Nanyue party, there should be no problem, right?"

"Secretary Zhao, you are talking about Lin Xuanling, a famous model in Taiwan?" Li Jiajia was overjoyed to hear that Zhao Jianhui had no intention of making things difficult for her, and agreed to help immediately.However, when he said Lin Xuanling's name, Li Jiajia was shocked.

Although Lin Xuanling is from Formosa, she is an international supermodel. I originally planned to invite her, but I heard that Lin Xuanling's reply is that he is now planning to launch the entertainment industry and will no longer accept any form of performance or film appointment.Can Secretary Zhao invite her over?

Before she could express the shock in her heart, Zhao Jianhui went on to say: "But if she is alone, she really can't support a party. Otherwise, let's invite a few more people, including Qin Yu and Yang Tingting. How about inviting people over?"

What else is there?It would be great if Qin Yu could really be invited here.Now Qin Yu can be regarded as the most famous actor among the younger generation in China, and his name is almost named after Lin Xuanling.Yang Tingting is said to be a sweet girl in China today, and her status in the music world is as close as that of the big sister in the music world, Ah Ying.If she, Qin Yu, and Lin Xuanling could really be invited, this gala would not be inferior to the Spring Festival Gala at all.

"Secretary Zhao, can you really invite them?" Li Jiajia couldn't believe it. She said that Director Sun of the TV station had already sent invitations, but they were all rejected by these people. Zhao Jianhui could come with a word. ?This is a bit too unrealistic, right?

Zhao Jianhui smiled and said, "I'll give it a try. I'll give you an answer as soon as possible if I can come or not."

"Then...then I really thank Secretary Zhao very much." Li Jiajia said this sincerely.She could also see that Zhao Jianhui's current expression really wanted to help her.Although I don't know why Zhao Jianhui did this, Li Jiajia couldn't help being grateful for Zhao Jianhui's attitude.

Perhaps, Secretary Zhao was really focused on his work. Standing at his height, he did not divide the Standing Committee of the Nanyue Provincial Committee into factions to prevent and suppress them.

After sending Li Jiajia away, Zhao Jianhui picked up the phone and called Yuan Yiyi directly: "Nanyue is going to hold a party here, let the actors and singers under your banner come to join in the show, especially the couple of Qin Yu and Yang Tingting. Personally... will there be no problem?"

Yuan Yiyi giggled over there: "Since our elders have issued an imperial edict, they have to go even if they don't have time now, who made you the father of my child." The two said a few more words Zhao Jianhui asked about Yuan Ye's physical condition, then hung up Yuan Yiyi's phone, and then called Lin Xuanling.

During this period of time, Lin Xuanling has stopped accepting any film appointments and commercials, and even rarely attends events held in the entertainment industry. She waits at home with peace of mind and is learning to be a housewife.

However, after hearing Zhao Jianhui's call, she happily agreed and said that she would leave immediately and reach Nanyue before dinner today.

Zhao Jianhui couldn't help laughing, thinking that this is a bit too impatient, right?However, knowing that Lin Xuanling was just using this reason to rush to her side as soon as possible, I was also a little touched in my heart! !

ps: I’m finally going home from my itinerary today. I’m very happy. I got up at four o’clock in the morning to finish coding this chapter. There’s still a small event in the morning. I’ll pack up and go to the airport in the afternoon. It’s estimated that the update will resume tomorrow. Welcome everyone Come back, You Long, hehe...it's the end of the month, drop a few more flowers here, or I'll be overtaken by others.
