On the eve of the Spring Festival, I was lucky enough to go into Sichuan for the second time and visit the recovery and reconstruction of the earthquake-stricken areas in Sichuan again. The speed of reconstruction, the beauty of home reconstruction and the great confidence of cadres and the masses in future development are all shocking. Every day, we are surrounded by high enthusiasm and fiery pride, and excited by the longing for a better tomorrow in the reconstruction area.
In interviews, we often hear such a sentence from the cadres and masses in the reconstruction areas: "Thanks to the * * * production party, thanks to the socialist system, and thanks to the aid builders for bringing us the best quality materials, the most detailed planning and the most advanced ideas." What we heard from the cadres and workers who aided the construction of provinces and cities was this sentence: "The schools, hospitals, farmhouses, villages and towns, and industrial parks we aided are more advanced and perfect than ours."
What kind of selflessness is this? "No matter how the international financial crisis strikes, our goal of aid construction remains unchanged, our confidence remains unchanged, and our strength remains undiminished!" 18 provinces and cities speak in unison; What kind of feeling is this? "We have children there, and so will children in the disaster area." 18 provinces and cities speak in unison; What kind of boundless love is this? "We will build what the disaster area needs!" 18 provinces and cities speak in unison.
A philosopher said that every historical disaster is compensated by historical progress. At this moment, we can't help thinking about such a question: Where does this power to promote historical progress come from?
This is an institutional force. It is often said that laws determine the operation of things and systems determine social development. To judge the merits of a system, of course, we must first measure it from whether it can effectively promote social development and progress. More than 30 years of reform and opening up have proved the great role of the socialist system in China's prosperity, civilization and progress; Disaster tests such as the Wenchuan earthquake have once again witnessed the organizational mobilization ability and efficient repair mechanism of the socialist system.
This is the power of core values. "You Sichuanese always say gratitude to us. Today I want to thank Sichuanese!" In Shifang, Tian Kunsheng, deputy commander of Beijing aid construction headquarters, told reporters, "In the 1960s and 1970s, the national economic situation was not good. Sichuanese can be said to tighten their belts and supply pork, grain and oil to Beijing every year. We will never forget this kindness. Now that Sichuan has been affected, it is also a gratitude for us to build aid! " "We also come to repay the kindness!" Liu Hongbao, head of the working group of Foshan, Guangdong Province's aid to Shuimo Town, Wenchuan County, said: "It is relying on the strength of all parts of the country to support Guangdong in establishing the Shenzhen Special Zone that Guangdong has today. We are here to build aid, and we are grateful! " The aid builders in Tangshan, Hebei Province, Nanba Town, Pingwu County, and the aid builders who experienced 1998 floods in Hubei and Hunan in those years ... all at the same time. Be friends in and out, watch and help each other, and repay each other with a drop of water. This is the eternal essence of the Chinese nation's 5,000-year civilization and the core value force condensed under the socialist system.
Always grateful, always thinking about rising. In the face of a newly renovated home, reborn relatives and a better tomorrow, there is always a feeling of gratitude in my chest, as if it were my mother's hand in the wind and rain, my body in the rain, and my hunchback when I was young; In the face of the rising sun every day, the ever-flowing crowds in the streets, and the city still shining at night, there is always a rising will in our hearts, which seems to be our mother's hand behind us as an adult.
Always grateful, always thinking about rising. This is the source of strength that pushes us forward.
The shortage of labor shows that cheap labor is unsustainable.
Guangzhou Daily: Labor shortage shows that cheap labor is unsustainable.
Dayang.com-Guangzhou Daily
2010 February 22, 04:07 Due to the rapid economic recovery, there has been a serious job shortage in both coastal areas and inland areas this year. Among them, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Dongguan and other Pearl River Delta cities have more than 2 million workers, and some production lines are in a state of suspension. Enterprises have raised wages, lowered academic qualifications and age restrictions, and alleviated the labor shortage (Wuhan Evening News February 2 1).
Why do migrant workers suddenly become a "special group" with the freedom to choose employment?
In fact, the "labor shortage" is only an era annotation that the traditional employment mode of enterprises, especially the three-to-one-supplement enterprises, has been gradually eliminated. The profits of enterprises that rely on primary processing and low technology content are the "surplus" of workers' wages, and give full play to the advantages of "cheap labor", thus deriving the scale effect of low-priced products in international competition, and becoming an important supporting force for "Made in China" to rank among the top in the world. However, the disadvantages brought by "cheap labor", such as the minimization of workers' welfare income, the hollowing out of social security, and the low level of labor skills, are unbearable for migrant workers with growing awareness of rights, and can't keep up with the social trajectory of China's economy upgrading from a single foreign trade-oriented to a domestic demand-oriented development, and from the first rich group to a universal inclusive one.
Although migrant workers have a new labor contract law in black and white, the social security payment, including pension and medical care, is not satisfactory, children's education and schooling cannot be effectively guaranteed, and various "occupational diseases" that ignore the health and life safety of migrant workers emerge one after another. The huge gap caused by dual household registration is not only reflected in economic treatment, but also in the lack of rights such as voting rights, being elected, trade union rights, which makes the lack of rights behind the "shortage of migrant workers" continue to exist.
The "shortage of migrant workers" is facing the multiple debts of the "cheap labor era"-whether it is visible salary, social security benefits or invisible right to rest and talk, it all constitutes the negative effect that the "cheap labor era" seems to be drifting away. Therefore, the "shortage of migrant workers" is by no means an increase in the rights of migrant workers, nor is it a vote with their feet in the pure market sense. It more reflects the "sub-optimal choice" of migrant workers who are forced to be helpless and their rights and interests are stagnant, which requires public decision makers to prescribe the right medicine with greater determination and courage.
The trial of Wen Qiang case exposed the hidden rules of the blending of power and property of Chongqing police during the period of 13.
2010 February 10 04:07 Dayang. com-Guangzhou Daily
As the "first umbrella" in the series of cases of "cracking down on gangsters" in Chongqing, Wen Qiang is the earliest "big brother" among the "gangsters" in Chongqing's political and legal circles and the most striking "godfather" in the underground rivers and lakes. According to the prosecution's allegations, Wen Qiang's bribery basically occurred during the 13 years when he was in charge of Chongqing's political and legal circles.
"The Wen Qiang case is a typical manifestation of the aging of the public security system in China. This system will be reformed after liberation. " Wang Zhexiang, a retired professor from Southwest University of Political Science and Law, said.
From the public's point of view, the five-day trial of Wen Qiang's case is actually a process of solving puzzles-are all the conjectures about Chongqing's "underground rivers and lakes" true? How does Chongqing police officialdom fight against the black-and-white group? What happened in Infernal Affairs? Will Chongqing's next "crackdown on evil" trigger a large-scale bureaucracy as expected?
Inside and outside the trial, everything finally surfaced, but more suspense was buried. Our reporter, who attended the trial all the time, recorded all the little-known details here and extracted more truth about Wen Qiang.
Special correspondent Qiu Ruixian and Du Zhou of this newspaper
Official secrets
Wen Qiang has never left the public eye since he was suddenly "double-regulated" in August last year. The media is keen to spread his appalling misdeeds-from hiding huge sums of money in fish ponds to playing with female stars to raping middle school students ... "Brother Wen" finally appeared. Curious onlookers finally found that the secrets revealed in the trial may be more valuable than all the gossip.
"Gray income"
Keep an official for a thousand days, and use it for a while.
Perhaps because the words "birthday" and "New Year money" were not clear enough, Wen Qiang finally used the term "gray income" with much higher recognition in the final debate stage of the trial.
Immediately, "gray income" became a hot word in online search. Few corrupt officials are exposed to the public by the media like Wen Qiang at the trial site. For the first time, the public clearly found that the original "gray income" in officialdom has been a defense that can be used as a weapon against the law. "Accepting' gray income' can only be regarded as a violation of discipline. It is also an investigation by the Commission for Discipline Inspection. If there is no entrustment, it should not be considered as a crime of accepting bribes. " Wen Qiang's defender Yang Kuangsheng said.
What kind of Qian Wenqiang will be considered as "gray income"?
Around 2000, real estate businessmen came to Chongqing to do a project. He met Wen Qiang through the then director of the Sichuan Provincial Public Security Department. After getting acquainted, he began to receive phone calls from Wen Qiang intentionally or unintentionally.
In 200 1 year, Wen Qiang repeatedly "unintentionally" mentioned that his son Wen Jiahao was going to study in Canada in 200 1 year. I got the message. He invited Wen Qiang to his property, California Paradise in Yubei District, for dinner. After dinner, he stuffed 30 thousand yuan into Wen Qiang's trouser pocket and said with a smile, "Take it to pay your son's tuition." Wen Qiang reacted naturally, smiled and said "thank you" and got on the bus and left. Six months later, Wen Qiang "unintentionally" told Zeng that he wanted to see his son studying in Canada. Experienced once stuffed $20,000 into his trouser pocket.
In fact, Wen Jiahao is more like traveling to Canada than studying abroad-he returned to Chongqing after half a year, and his father no longer needs him. From 2003 to 2005, Wen Qiang found the reason for chatting every year, that is, he went to Australia, Singapore, Thailand and other places on business, and gave him $70,000 and $6,543,800+for this.
"Zeng Caiwei is my friend. He gave me money because friends care about each other." Wen Qiang's reason is that before 2005, he was not asked for help, but he was still willing to send money. "It is necessary to make friends with Wen Qiang. I can ask him for help if there is anything. " Once said.
Around Wen Qiang, there are countless similar "friends" who regard him as a magnet and "stick" him from the horizontal direction. Chen Wanqing, a businessman who keeps the media in the dark, is another typical example. He gave Wen Qiang money for five years without asking for anything in return. In the sixth year, he asked Wen Qiang to help him with his work-transferring jobs and promoting the three people he had placed in the Public Security Bureau.
"buy an official"
Send money to protect officials
"I don't want to be promoted when I send money every year!" On the first day of the trial, Wen Qiang's wife Zhou Xiaoya revealed his long-standing "secret" in one sentence. In the officialdom of Chongqing police, Wen Qiang stood at the top and formed a "black pyramid" with his first three men who were tried in the same court. And these "King Kong" with infinite scenery in the eyes of outsiders actually need to pay a great price to stand on this floor.
"Although we are brothers in private, I know that Wen Qiang is a man who works with money," Chen Tao once said in his confession.
200 1 After waiting for nine years, Wen Qiang finally got an opportunity to sit on the position of executive deputy director of Chongqing Public Security Bureau. Because he actually acted as a director, he realized that he was in power. Starting from this year, the Spring Festival is the biggest day for writers every year. Because the Spring Festival is approaching, Wen Qiang's birthday has become the best "tribute" opportunity for his subordinates. No matter Huang Daiqiang or from this year until Wen Qiang was "double-regulated", no one dared not attend the birthday party notified by Wen Qiang's wife every year, and no one dared not wrap the envelope of 6,543,800 yuan.
During the trial, more hilarious secrets of "buying officials" were exposed, highlighting Wen Qiang's shrewdness and sophistication in the black gold network of officialdom.
Of all the subordinates who sent money to Wen Qiang, Ran Congjian was the most unlucky one. Around the Spring Festival in 2009, Ran Congjian, deputy director of Chongqing Reeducation through Labor Bureau, heard that the then political commissar of Chongqing Reeducation through Labor Bureau was about to take office. He wanted to solve the problem of "deputy hall" level, and found Chen Wanqing who was familiar with Wen Qiang, hoping to be promoted to the political commissar of Chongqing Reeducation through Labor Bureau with the help of Wen Qiang's authority in the near future.
Chen Wanqing confessed that Wen Qiang told him that at that time, several deputy directors of the reeducation-through-labor bureau were not junior, and Ran Congjian ranked last in the unit democratic evaluation. Not only was it difficult to promote, but the bureau also planned to let Ran Congjian work in the grass-roots reeducation-through-labor camp.
Later, Chen Wanqing invited Ran Congjian and Wen Qiang to dinner, but Wen Qiang took the opportunity to leave soon. Anxious Ran brought the 400,000 yuan he raised from thrift, plus the 65,438+10,000 yuan he lent him, so he had to give it to Wen Qiang. After Wen Qiang took the money home, he said to his wife, "There was a man in the reeducation-through-labor bureau who was supposed to be fired."
Ran Congjian, who thought he had saved his position with money, saw the assessment results of municipal cadres by a municipal department in Chongqing in July 2009 in the newspaper. As the only "outstanding leading cadre of municipal departments in 2008" in reeducation-through-labor bureau, he is on the list. Now detained for accepting bribes, he has repeatedly told the case handlers that Wen Qiang is "not authentic".
On June 25th, 2008, Chongqing Public Security Bureau held a meeting of cadres, announcing that Wen Qiang would no longer serve as deputy director, and Wang Lijun would take over. On July 25, 2008, the fifth meeting of the Standing Committee of the Third Chongqing Municipal People's Congress appointed Wen Qiang as the director of the Chongqing Municipal Bureau of Justice. This is a promotion that Wen Qiang was waiting for on 16. At the same time, it also shows that he needs to change his contacts in officialdom, which is keenly felt by the police "second floor". During the trial, the prosecutor interrogated Huang Daiqiang. From 2004 to 2008, he gave Wen a red envelope every Spring Festival, but after Wen Qiang was transferred to the Justice Bureau in 2008, he stopped giving it.
"Did Huang Daiqiang's respect for Wen Qiang suddenly disappear in 2009?" As soon as the prosecutor's voice fell, there was a snicker in the gallery.
"dopted mother"
A vassal of officialdom who secretly took refuge.
In addition to criss-crossing roots, there are many parasites in the form of epiphytes. Wen Qiang's wife was accused of taking bribes. In her final defense, she had this defense: "As a non-state employee, the defendant Zhou Xiaoya committed the crime of accepting bribes because her husband Wen Qiang is a state employee and a' special relationship person' as stipulated by law. In other words, the defendant Zhou Xiaoya, as a kind of' non-identity crime', cannot independently constitute the crime of accepting bribes, and can only be attached to Wen Qiang's status as a national staff member to constitute the crime of accepting bribes. "
On the way to all Wen Qiang's money, Zhou Hongmei of unknown origin is quite unique. She turned her attention to Wen Qiang's close friend Zhou Xiaoya, whose children are in the same class as Zhou Xiaoya's son.
Zhou Hongmei opened a little-known decoration engineering company to do small business. Before 1996, this company couldn't get any projects, but after meeting Wen Jia, her opportunity came.
"Hong-mei zhou said everywhere that she is my son's godmother. She often asks Wen Qiang for help in doing business. " Zhou Hongmei knows that "I can't bear children, but I can't keep wolves". Therefore, in addition to constantly sending money to Wengu, she later gave Wengu 35% of the decoration company shares as performance shares. Since then, in the name of dividends, * * * has given Wengu a "tribute" of 6.5438+0.625 million yuan.
Wen Qiang and Zhou Xiaoya don't contribute money or participate in management, but a bunch of "bonuses" fall from the sky every year. During the trial, there was a heated debate about whether accepting benefits in the form of dividends from performance shares constituted the crime of accepting bribes.
Black and white entanglement
Another opportunity given by history to Wen Qiang is that when he painstakingly managed his interest network in Chongqing officialdom, the underworld organization in Chongqing itself happened to be in a period of continuous growth and rapid development. In the early 1980 s, the "Paoge" of the new era had been bred and sprouted in Chongqing; In the early 1990s, organized gangs with underworld nature gradually formed.
Under the same personality and cultural background, Wen Qiang, who often has to deal with these "Paoge" in the new era, not only lost his balance, but finally got entangled in the walk of black and white.
Director or "godfather"?
In the exhibition of anti-gang achievements displayed by Chongqing Public Security Bureau, there is an organizational chart of Zhang Wenqiang and the underworld gangs he protected.
In this picture, Wen Qiang is the top of the pyramid, and here are Wen Qiang's "four black generals"-Huang Daiqiang, former deputy head of the Interpol Corps of Chongqing Public Security Bureau, Chen Tao, former head of the Public Security Corps, Zhao Liming, former deputy director of the bus branch, and Xu Qiang, former deputy head of Dianjiang County and public security director. Wen Qiang provided "protective umbrellas" for the "six gangs" through the "Four Blacks": Chen Mingliang gang, Gong Gangmo gang, Yue Ning gang, Wang Xiaojun gang, Wang Tianlun gang and Xie Caiping gang.
When Wang Xiaojun, the "black boss", first met Wen Qiang, he knew why he was called the "godfather" in Jianghu. During the trial, he confessed that in order to do business well, people like Wen Qiang must be known to do better than their peers. Wen Qiang often comes to my nightclub to drink and sing with Chen Tao and Huang Daiqiang. Once, Chen Tao ordered a bunch of flowers for a girl. I later learned that he was going to give them to Wen Qiang. Wen Qiang was singing at that time. As soon as he entered the door, he got down on one knee. I'm thinking that people like Chen Tao have to curry favor with Wen Qiang, so this gang is not simple.
In Wang Xiaojun's eyes, "everyone in the society is called Godfather Wen Qiang. They like to form gangs, and everyone controls one side. At that time, they had a bad impression of public security. They always feel that something is wrong and they can settle it with some money. "
The relationship between Wen Qiang and his men is also full of this "godfather" meaning. Zhao Liming confessed that once he went to drink, Wen Qiang deliberately left him and Huang Daiqiang and asked Zhao Liming fiercely: "Do you think it is standing or kneeling!" Zhao Liming was half kneeling at once, and Wen Qiang began to scold him for being arrogant and betrayed him. "I know in my heart that he blames me for not giving him a gift during that time. He told me to play and didn't go out. "
Assign a case to the "fisherman"
In Chen Tao's confession, Huang Daiqiang called him and said, "The boss is looking for you." As the police chief, Wen Qiang's subordinates call him "the boss". In the underground rivers and lakes inside the police, Wen Qiang's identity is indeed a bit like the boss. He is at the top of the pyramid in the main hall class, and there are several major departments in charge of crime, public transportation and public security below. These departments go everywhere to pull projects. He is responsible for coordinating and profiting from it.
From the trial, it can be found that before Wen Qiang became the director of the Judicial Bureau, the relationship between Huang Daiqiang, Zhao Liming and Chen Tao was the most "iron". As a front-desk figure on the second floor of the pyramid, he can even act as a bridge between Wen Qiang and black organizations.
The case of Wang Tianlun, the "black boss", clearly shows this process. This is a project that Huang Daiqiang came back by himself. Wang Tianlun provoked a murder case at that time, and his gang-related organization was already under investigation. At that time, Huang Daiqiang was the captain of the third team, but this case belongs to the first team. "This case can only be solved by Wen Qiang." Entrusted by the middleman Li Jinsong, Huang Daiqiang immediately found Wen Qiang.
The headstrong Wen Qiang immediately found Wang Zhiyong, the captain of the Interpol Corps at that time. According to Li Jinsong's confession, Wen Qiang insulted Wang Zhiyong on the spot and greeted "Huang Daiqiang in this case". As a result, the case was transferred from the first team to the third team, and finally from the third team to the grassroots. In the words of the public prosecutor, under this tangled operation of black and white, "Wang Tianlun's case could not be successfully investigated after the instructions of two public security bureau chiefs."
Wen Qiang himself confessed that he intervened in Wang Tianlun's case at that time because his subordinate Huang Daiqiang asked him to "want to go to this case", so he coordinated from it. His explanation is that Huang Daiqiang wants to handle this case because he thinks it is easy to make contributions. He just can't explain it. For this reason, he accepted 200,000 yuan from Wang Tianlun.
A frequent visitor to nightclubs.
Due to the long-term lack of supervision mechanism, Wen Qiang and others are even unscrupulous in this black-and-white walk. "There are widespread illegal and criminal activities such as prostitution in nightclubs and other entertainment places in Chongqing." In the trial, this sentence was often used by Huang Daiqiang, Zhao Liming, Chen Tao and even Wen Qiang himself. But then the excuses were: "there are exceptions", or "the nightclub is not under the control of the public security bureau chief, and the captain of the corps can't manage it. This is the responsibility of the grassroots police station. "
In fact, they are "regular customers" themselves. Many grassroots policemen said frankly: "We all know that Yue Ning, Madang and Wenqiang are very familiar. Wen Qiang often goes to their nightclubs to play. How dare we check? "
In the final court debate, Zhao Liming's defense lawyer said: "Objectively speaking, Zhao Liming was rated as an excellent civil servant 17 times,1/kloc-0 times, and more than 20 classic cases were recorded in the textbook. Even this police mode has to be involved in this mixed water. The unscientific and undemocratic selection mechanism within the Chongqing police has created his tragedy. "
Wen Qiang's route of collecting money:
