Rebirth: I am in Jin-Cha-Ji

But Gao Gang was able to save the situation.

He chose to launch the "Three Antis" campaign. This was a way to break free from his passive position and gain points for himself. Listening to Gao Gang's deployment of the "anti-waste" and "anti-bureaucracy" campaigns, the Chairman nodded frequently.

"Ah."

The Chairman said, "Since our Party entered the city, various problems have arisen frequently. This is because many members believe that the revolution has now been victorious and have begun to relax their expectations of themselves. Our Party will still need a small rectification campaign every year and a major rectification campaign every three years."

When the Chairman raised this issue at the Politburo meeting, it was actually a disguised warning to Gao Gang.

The Chairman likes Gao Gang's abilities very much.

But Gao Gang's temper left the chairman frustrated. Had Gao Gang not been so aggressive at the financial meeting, the chairman wouldn't have needed to intervene personally. Gao Gang's overbearing attitude, his refusal to give others a break, was politically dangerous.

The Chairman loves talents.

Gao Gang has outstanding abilities in all aspects of the party, government and military.

That's why the Chairman gave Gao Gang a warning.

So that Gao Gang won’t go too far.

Wei Hongjun was listening to the Chairman and Gao Gang and said, "Chairman, I think the issue of party members and cadres' entertainment expenses should be clarified. Otherwise, it is just talking about 'anti-waste' and extravagance, but there is no clear standard.

This is a big problem for grassroots cadres. When the cadres above come to inspect, how should the cadres below receive them? If they serve good food, they will be accused of extravagance. If they serve nothing, some cadres will think they are being rude. This is a dilemma for the cadres below.

Grassroots cadres."

"So what does Comrade Red Army mean?"

The Chairman looked at Wei Hongjun.

Wei Hongjun said: "I think the central government should formulate clear standards for business trips. How much should be paid for receiving cadres, what level of food and accommodation should be provided, there should be a clear standard, how much is enough. As long as there is a clear standard, then the following

Cadres who are not qualified do not need to consider these things. There are standards, and exceeding them is a violation of Party discipline. There is also a basis for punishing these cadres.

In fact, both the local central bureau and the local regions have their own ideas about the reception standards for cadres.

It also has its own simple standards.

But this standard is confusing and vague.

Wei Hongjun hoped to establish clear standards from the outset. "What amount is what amount?" With clear standards, grassroots cadres wouldn't be at a loss. Similarly, clear standards would ensure consistency in unit accounting.

Travel expenses are paid to cadres based on the duration of the trip. Similarly, the unit can calculate reception expenses based on the reception standards.

“That’s a good idea.

The commander-in-chief was the first to support Wei Hongjun.

He said: "Clear standards are good for everyone, from top to bottom. We don't have to embarrass lower-level cadres, who have to rack their brains all day to figure out how to receive cadres from above. With standards in place, everything can be done according to them."

The commander-in-chief has always been in charge of the party’s disciplinary inspection work.

Since entering the era of peacebuilding, the issue of hospitality has really become a big problem.

If you treat them too well, people will accuse you of extravagance, or even say you've made a mistake. But if you don't treat them well, who knows if you might offend the officials who come to inspect them? This puts many lower-level officials in a difficult position.

The same situation occurred when the President and the Prime Minister stayed in Harbin.

The Chairman and the Prime Minister, one is the Chairman of the Party and the Chairman of the Central People's Government, and the other is the Premier of the State Council. What can the leaders of Harbin do? If there are standards, they will follow them and it will not make the Chairman furious. Although their

There are problems with the thinking, but ultimately it’s because there are no standards.

"The punishment should be based on facts."

Dong Biwu also supported it.

Although Wei Hongjun and Dong Biwu had differences on the separation of party and government, and even clashed in a meeting, Dong Biwu did not think that because of the differences and conflicts, they would target each other in work.

There are rules to follow on this topic.

As the commander-in-chief and Dong Biwu spoke, the others also supported Wei Hongjun.

The Chairman concluded by saying, "Comrades of the Red Army, this is precisely the task of your organizing committee. Your organizing committee should come up with a plan as quickly as possible and then submit it to the Central Committee."

"Yes."

Chapter 793 Setting Standards

The aftermath of the Third National Finance and Economics Conference is not small, and it should be said that the aftermath is very serious.

The first was the unification of national finances. Bo Shuchun, caught up in the controversy surrounding the meeting, lost his position as deputy director of the Finance and Economics Committee and the departments he oversaw, leaving him with only the position of Minister of Finance.

This was a huge blow to Bo Shuchun's political career. Since the Anti-Japanese War, Bo Shuchun's political career had been on an upward trajectory, and it had always been going smoothly.

Especially during the Seventh National Congress, many people believed that Bo Shuchun lacked the qualifications.

But Bo Shuchun was elected as a member of the Central Committee.

But this time Bo Shuchun suffered a heavy blow.

If Bo Shuchun was previously an administrative level 3 cadre, then after this punishment, he would no longer be able to maintain that level. Bo Shuchun's position as Minister of Finance, if it were graded, would probably be administrative level 4.

It's nothing that happened to Bo Shuchun, but now is a critical moment for the central government to unify its finances.

Bo Shuchun is the first-line person in charge of this matter.

But the situation is very bad now. How can Bo Shuchun and local officials be responsible for this matter? The Chairman asked Chen Yun to personally take charge of the Ministry of Finance in order to let Chen Yun come forward to complete the financial unification.

It can be said that if it were just a little bit off, the grand strategy of fiscal unification might fail.

Fortunately, the chairman stepped in and finally stabilized the situation. This not only saved Bo Shuchun’s position as the Minister of Finance, but also gave those local bosses a way out. If Bo Shuchun was really kicked out of the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Finance was reorganized, then the central and local governments would be in a dilemma.

The unified fiscal plan that was finally reached has to be postponed again.

However, although the situation has been stabilized, it is still not good.

This meeting once again gave the Central Committee a taste of the strength of the local Central Bureaus and regional governments. These local Central Bureau and regional government officials were accustomed to being the bosses and issuing orders in their local areas.

When I came to the central meeting, I also brought this working style with me.

Or perhaps these people have no fear or respect for the central government. Bo Shuchun is an important cadre of the State Council, deputy director of the Finance and Economics Committee and Minister of Finance, with absolute power. After Chen Yun took charge of the Planning Commission, his main focus was on

The focus began on formulating the 1949 industrial plan, primarily to connect with Soviet aid projects. Therefore, Bo Shuchun was primarily responsible for formulating the 1949 financial plan.

Moreover, before Bo Shuchun was transferred to the central government, he served as the acting secretary of the Central Army of Shanxi, Hebei, Shandong and Henan, and the second secretary of the North China Bureau. He was also a local official.

But even such a person as Bo Shuchun has limited deterrent effect on these local bosses.

If Gao Gang was a member of the Political Bureau, Vice Chairman of the Central People's Government, Secretary of the Northeast Bureau, Chairman of the Northeast People's Government, Commander and Political Commissar of the Northeast Military Region, he would not be afraid of Bo Shuchun at all. Even Comrade Xiu Yang, the Prime Minister, Chen Yun and others

Not afraid.

So what about everyone else?!

Just like Xiang Ming, he was only the first deputy secretary of the Shandong branch.

But he didn't care about Bo Shuchun's status at all.

To put it bluntly, the current outcome of the Third National Finance and Economics Conference was the result of the Premier, Chen Yun, and Bo Shuchun taking turns reviewing the issues, and the Chairman personally coming forward to persuade everyone. Otherwise, no one would have known where things would have gone.

The conflicts in the meeting were so intense that under pressure from local officials, Bo Shuchun had no choice but to leave the Ministry of Finance.

The Chairman even had to convene a Politburo meeting to bring the matter to a close. If the Politburo meeting did not reach a conclusion, the matter would be difficult to resolve.

The Chairman has already felt that various thoughts are flooding the party and the disputes within the party are becoming more and more intense. The current situation is similar to the early days of the Agrarian Revolution. Everyone has no experience in how to carry out armed struggle. So the Central Committee began to

The cadres and soldiers at the lower levels all had different ideas, which is why the early Agrarian Revolution was so difficult. The same is true now.

New China had just been established, and no one had any experience in how to build it. Moreover, everyone had their own views on how to build New China. Although the Second Session of the Seventh Central Committee formulated the general line for the new democratic revolution, everyone had different views on this.

There are various understandings of the general line.

Let’s not talk about anything else, let’s just talk about the issue of restricting the development of private capital.

The Second Session of the Seventh Central Committee clearly stated that restrictions should be imposed, but everyone had different understandings. Some people wanted to completely eliminate private capital, believing that this was what a Marxist party should do and that this was the only way to build socialism. But some people

Some people believe that private capital needs to be developed, which is in line with the realities of the New Democratic Revolution. Different understandings of the same policy lead to different approaches. This is why the turmoil at the National Finance and Economics Conference occurred.

It can be said that the different understandings of the general line were clearly reflected in the work. First, there were differences in work, and then the differences in work eventually evolved into disputes over mountaintops, lines, and personnel. Although the Chairman

Although the problem was solved, the chairman knew clearly that it would happen again next time.

This thing is almost unsolvable.

Different cadres have different backgrounds, different educations, and different environments in which they grew up. Even if they have the same background, their revolutionary experiences will lead to different working methods and work philosophies.

Cadres in white areas, military cadres, urban cadres, rural cadres, as well as intellectual cadres and cadres with low cultural levels all think differently and have different working styles.

Because everyone has different understandings, conflicts will definitely arise in work. Of course, if it is just a simple work conflict, the matter will not be so serious. The problem is that the CCP revolution has lasted for more than 20 years, so many CCP cadres have started their own

The big guys who set up bases all have their own mountains and their own base.

Therefore, the conflicts and contradictions that arise between them at work are no longer conflicts and contradictions between individuals.

Why are political struggles so intense in history?

It was because of differences in political ideologies and working methods among the various factions that eventually evolved into a political struggle. Once this struggle began, it was difficult to end unless one side admitted defeat.

And what can the chairman do?

Telling everyone to be united within the party and not to fight? If only it were that easy.

Because of this, after the Politburo meeting, the Chairman convened a meeting of the Secretariat. Chen Yun and Nie Shuai, two alternate secretaries of the Secretariat, also attended this meeting. It was not only the Chairman who felt the current problems in the party life.

The problem is that other people have felt it too.

-A national financial and economic conference actually caused such a big problem.

This is not a normal phenomenon.

Finally everyone reached a consensus.

That is, the central government must take back power and cannot leave the power of the local central bureaus and local regions unattended. The longer the local central bureaus and local regions leave it unattended, the greater their power will be, and the more serious the contradictions with the central government will be.

The existence of local regions and the clear distinctions between the various central bureaus and the regions. If this continues, the traces of factionalism among these cadres will become more and more serious.

The Central Committee supports the intra-party debate.

A healthy party cannot be stagnant; it must have debate. However, this debate should be limited to work-related matters and should not devolve into factional disputes or power struggles, ultimately devolving into power struggles.

The more obvious the traces of the mountain are, the more serious the dispute over the mountain will be.

Therefore, at the Secretariat meeting, everyone decided to adjust the personnel of the local central bureaus and local regions at the Third Plenary Session of the Seventh Central Committee to be held a few months later. This included adjusting the key leaders of some local central bureaus and local regions.

Again.

Many of the top leaders of local central bureaus and local regions are currently leaders of the party, government, and military. They have worked in local areas for a long time, and many of them are leaders of mountaintops. As they continue to stay in charge of local areas, their power in local areas will become increasingly greater. So this is the case.
