24 The Helpless Experience (4)
In the official document handed over by the National Security Agency, the whole story of the incident is very clear. The classmate of the wife of the vice mayor in charge of agriculture in Xinyang City is an agricultural technology company that conducts research on rice seeds and has developed a new type of late rice seed. Then through the relationship, the new rice seed was recommended to the deputy mayor of Xinyang City. After the deputy mayor arranged a small-scale trial planting, the effect was very good, so he did not listen to the opposition of the director of the agricultural bureau and suggested that this rice seed be promoted in two sets of teams in Xinyang City.
There must be controversy, the small-scale trial planting effect is good, and finally under the idea of presenting gifts to the national conditions, the two sets of teams reached an agreement to comprehensively promote this late rice in Xinyang. In September, the rice grows, but it does not set ears, resulting in the failure of the second crop of late rice grains.
The people live on food! Since the beginning of the Fengtai County Revolution, this has been the foundation of the People's Party's political power. Not having enough to eat is a total negation of a regime's ability to govern. The People's Party grasped the main contradiction brought about by China's huge population at the end of the Qing Dynasty, and the old system of private land ownership was destroyed through the agrarian revolution, and then came to prominence in the late Qing Dynasty.
Water conservancy facilities, pesticides, chemical fertilizers, improved seeds, soil improvement, Chen Ke pointed out that the agricultural revolutionary line has been supported by the whole party and even the people of the whole country, and the heavy chemical industry chain created by synthetic ammonia has earned a huge amount of money for China. The breakthrough in the technology of large-scale synthetic ammonia production line has allowed chemical fertilizers to begin to enter rural areas on a large scale.
Having fertilizer means that the land is fertile, and if you have fertility, you can grow two crops. Planting two crops means that agricultural output can almost double, and the output of agricultural products has increased rapidly in the past two years. As long as you work, you can eat enough and even save some money, and the status quo of New China has become the unbreakable support of the people's party.
As one of the veteran members of the People's Party and one of the founders of the revolutionary base area in Fengtai County, he is far more aware than anyone else of the harm caused to the people by the failure of the harvest and the serious impact on the political power. If it had been before, several sets of teams in this area would have been removed from their posts and investigated, and it would not be uncommon for people to be shot.
However, in 1923, it was far from immediately thunderous, and even could handle the matter with a fairly calm attitude. Shang Yuan did not directly order people to go to the two sets of teams in the Xinyang area, but invited the person in charge of the National Security Bureau to his office.
The People's Commissariat of Internal Affairs is an extremely powerful structure for dealing with contradictions between the enemy and ourselves. As the system has improved over the years, the definition of national security has also changed, and it is not just invasions, espionage, and even sabotage caused by enemies that cause security problems. The definition of national security is also very different. For example, when there is not enough food to eat, the food problem is only how to produce more food. Now that the people can eat enough, food security has become how to stabilize food prices and how to stabilize social sentiment. The same is true for other industries, so the People's Commissariat of Internal Affairs should form the State Security Agency.
"Director Dai, what's going on with this investigation?" Shang Yuan asked.
The current director Dai Qingshan is a veteran political worker, and his brows furrowed slightly when he heard Shang Yuan's question, and the National Security Bureau is now directly under the Military Commission. However, there has been a discussion about the positioning of the State Security Bureau, and it is said that the latest National Security Bureau will be directly under the leadership of the Politburo, so Dai Qingshan did not directly answer the question of Politburo Standing Committee member Shang Yuan, but asked rhetorically: "Premier Shang, do you think our investigation has exceeded the rules?" ”
Shang Yuan really felt that this investigation was out of order, this kind of thing should have been the responsibility of the two sets of teams in Xinyang, even if there was a problem with the two sets of teams, it would be the turn of the National People's Congress to speak. The three sets of teams were silent, which indeed shows that there is a big problem in Xinyang. However, this does not mean that the NSA can intervene in this matter as a secret police.
The Republic has developed well in recent years, and one of the positive effects of its great business is that it has been able to cope with these "small-scale" harvests. From this point of view, it is far from thinking that it is necessary to burn the fire and act immediately.
Shang Yuan is more concerned about Chen Ke's prediction of all kinds of unhealthy tendencies in the party. Naturally, it is impossible for everyone in the People's Party to be a saint, and if we judge from the perspective of seeking truth from facts, we can easily get such a result. What Shang Yuan cares about is how Chen Ke learned about these situations.
Even comrades at the level of Politburo Standing Committee, Politburo members, and Central Committee members have a consensus that no one can use the means of personnel struggle to undermine organizational discipline. This is still what Chen Ke told everyone.
The Xianxiangrui incident has already made Shang Yuan a little suspicious, and this time the National Security Bureau's intervention in the Xinyang Harvest Incident made Shang Yuan feel even more uneasy. The decision of the organization to use the secret police is still an organizational act. If the secret police were to be used by individuals, the problem would be serious, even worse than the loss of harvest in Xinyang.
"Our Security Bureau is responsible for the problem of rumors, and when the feudal guilds are cracking down, in the mountainous areas, especially in the tea-producing mountainous areas of Xinyang, you also know that there are a lot of feudal superstitious activities. What kind of meridian tea, get some little girls to pick tea in the middle of the night, ghostly. There are other gimmicks that we have not ignored in the Xinyang area. This matter is not new to now, there were signs more than a month ago. The comrades below have long reported that there is such an incident, and the masses are very afraid. Dai Qingshan dared to send an official document to Shang Yuan, and he was not unprepared. Shang Yuan asked, and Dai Qingshan replied very calmly.
The use of chemical fertilizers has greatly promoted agricultural production, and even if the agricultural knowledge popularization team works hard, the people still have a very instinctive reaction to such a miraculous thing, that is, to give these things to habitual mythology. Reiki, magic medicine, this tradition is not something that can be solved in a day or two. The old base areas of the People's Party are quite good because of the level of popularization of science and technology. In other areas, there have been cases where people think that chemical fertilizers can cure diseases, and as a result, eating chemical fertilizers can kill people. There have also been cases of large-scale poisoning with pesticides. Although the National Security Agency cannot go out in person, it has never relaxed its intelligence checks.
After the news of "offending the gods so that the rice does not bear ears" appeared in Xinyang, the National Security Bureau intervened in the investigation. As a result, it was found that there was a matter of not bearing ears, but the left and right did not wait for the agricultural department and the party and government groups to come out and explain to the masses.
There are many ways to engage in intelligence work, and this time they did not use any means at all, but they just casually inquired with the cadres and the masses and found out a lot of information. As soon as the information was sorted out, in addition to the specific scientific principle that rice does not bear ears, the truth of the entire social operation was immediately revealed.
Dai Qingshan waited for another half a month, and the rumors in Xinyang became more and more serious, and several sets of local teams simply held their back, and the State Security Bureau couldn't wait. It is only a matter of time before this incident breaks out, there is no impermeable wall in the world, and when it comes to breaking out, it is impossible for the NSA investigation to hide. So he simply handed over the report to Shang Yuan.
Shang Yuan was originally quite wary of the actions of the National Security Bureau, and after listening to Dai Qingshan's statement, Shang Yuan didn't know what to say. This matter really has nothing to do with the National Security Agency, but the degree of bastardization of several sets of local teams is a bit out of the sky. Shang Yuan's anger shifted from the National Security Bureau to the Xinyang area.
"Director Dai, who else knows about this now." Shang Yuan asked.
"Are you asking the masses or the cadres?" Dai Qingshan asked rhetorically.
Shang Yuan is almost 50 years old this year, and when he heard Dai Qingshan, who was less than forty years old, ask this, he couldn't help but blush. The masses in Xinyang should not know the specific situation, but how can the masses not know about the late rice harvest in the field? The cadres in Xinyang must know better. However, few people in the central government of Zhengzhou knew about it, at least Shang Yuan, as the prime minister, didn't know about it. I don't know why, Shang Yuan's mind at this time thought that it was not the Xinyang area, but Chen Ke's indescribable smile. It seems to be a joke, but how do we want to have a deep meaning.
"I'm asking the wrong question, as far as you can gather, how many such incidents are there nationwide?" Shang Yuan, who originally thought that the National Security Bureau was doing wrong, now had to rely on the intelligence gathered by Dai Qingshan.
"In recent years, there have been many accidents with seeds, fertilizers, and pesticides across the country. The scale is not too big, and this is the first time in Xinyang. Dai Qingshan replied.
"Then did Chairman Chen entrust you to investigate this kind of thing?" Shang Yuan asked.
Dai Qingshan frowned, he didn't answer this question directly, but stared at Shang Yuan. The sharp gaze made Shang Yuan feel very uncomfortable. However, Dai Qingshan didn't look away at all, and his sharp gaze seemed to be inserted directly into Shang Yuan's mind to read Shang Yuan's true thoughts. However, this gaze did not last long, and Dai Qingshan also felt that he had lost his temper, he turned his head and said: "Premier Shang, you should know that our National Security Bureau strictly prohibits the use of words against comrades, right?" ”
Shang Yuan's heart was shocked, the People's Internal Affairs Committee has long undertaken the subject of human behavior research, and discourse is a psychological suggestion and guidance technique based on human psychology that has been extended from behavior. The People's Commissariat of Internal Affairs and later the National Security Service have been purged five times. In the two recent cases, many of the comrades who were purged did not commit any organizational mistakes or personal malicious mistakes, but were purged because they used words against their comrades.
Dai Qingshan turned his head and said, "Premier Shang, when it comes to party spirit, we all have to learn from Chairman Chen." Compared with the party spirit, we should not compare with him, we can't compare. ”
Shang Yuan suddenly had an illusion, he wondered if he was guided by Dai Qingshan's words, but Shang Yuan actually understood very well that the reason why he had this illusion was because Chen Ke's internal prophecy was the same as the previous prophecy of the struggle against the enemy, and it was accurately fulfilled again. In the struggle against the enemy, no matter how miraculous Chen Ke's prophecy is, once it is fulfilled, the People's Party will have a great harvest. Now Shang Yuan suddenly felt that he could understand the enemy's mentality, and in the face of a Chen Ke who could see through himself, how confused those enemies who could understand this were. That's really dying and I don't know how.
Dai Qingshan looked at Shang Yuan's face with a painful expression, and after a moment's consideration, he said, "Premier Shang, our National Security Bureau is only responsible for security work. If you ask me what's going on, I'll be honest with you about what we've investigated. If you ask why this is happening, I suggest you ask Chairman Chen and the comrades who have done those things. ”
After Dai Qingshan left, Shang Yuan was silent in the office for a while, and finally got up to find Chen Ke. After reporting the problem to Chen Ke, Shang Yuan handed the report to Chen Ke. Unlike Shang Yuan's thoughts, Chen Ke's expression relaxed after reading the report. Chen Ke didn't speak, just waited quietly for Shang Yuan to speak.
"I originally thought that such a big thing would happen to the officials of our People's Party." Shang Yuan said.
"It's not a big deal." Chen Ke said with a smile. Compared with the matter of producing more than 100,000 catties per mu, comparing it with the fact that important national cadres stand on the so-called wheat with a yield of more than 100,000 catties per mu, and comparing it with the fact that this kind of photo appeared in the People's Daily, the cadres of Xinyang are still good cadres.
Chen Ke looked at Shang Yuan's almost distorted muscles, he put away his smile and said: "This time, the cadres in Xinyang did not do it scientifically, and they arbitrarily started the promotion work through administrative means without following the agricultural procedures. If there is a mistake, it is actually such a mistake. The laws of science are not observed. ”
Shang Yuan listened to Chen Ke's explanation, and if he imagined it carefully, it was the same thing, and his heart was relaxed.
However, Chen Ke's expression became very cold, "Comrade Shang Yuan, do you know what a careerist is? ”
Shang Yuan thought for a moment and said in amazement: "Could it be that someone wants to take advantage of this incident?" ”
"Hehe," Chen Ke sneered, "we have to admit the facts. For comrades who want to become officials, and for comrades who do not have revolutionary consciousness, they are concerned about whether their official functions cannot be maintained. Keeping their official positions is at the heart of everything they do. Personally, I guess that even when they do self-criticism, it's just one sentence, how can I believe XXX?! ”
At the meeting of the two sets of teams in Xinyang City, the mayor said with regret: "Why did I believe in XXX?!" ”
These words really speak everyone's heart, and what was supposed to be a good gift for the national situation has now become a sword on everyone's heads. The state is now grasping both grain and steel, and with grain and steel, the people can live and work in peace and contentment, and with iron and steel, they can develop industry, build railways, open mines, and build water conservancy. If you don't believe that the rice varieties that grew and harvested quite well during the small-scale trial planting, if you use the most conservative methods and use the most ordinary seeds, the two harvests are enough to greatly improve the lives of the people in Xinyang. This achievement is enough to bring the work evaluation of the district to a fairly good level.
Now everything has come to naught, and all the cadres here know what a terrible punishment they will face if they get such a result. In the years of the revolutionary war, this was to lose the head! Not to mention that if the harvest is out in one area, the cadres will steal 100 catties of grain and try it. The bloody lesson is not one or two. The timid comrade was already trembling with fright. Now that the central government is directly under Henan, the local cadres in Henan once had great excitement, "We are all Beijing officials!" "It's not like no one has ever said it. Now they finally understand that Jingguan is not easy to do! Anything that happens in Henan will go directly to the center.
"Do you want to report this?" The director of agriculture said tremblingly. As the head of the agriculture department, the director of the agricultural bureau has no possibility of passing the buck at all. Of course, no one responded to this, only the sound of the recorder brushing the record echoed in the conference room.
"Don't remember! Okay no! The director of the agriculture bureau wanted to use a stern voice, but when he came out, it turned into an almost pleading tone.
These words reminded many people, and their eyes fell on the party secretary. The party secretary couldn't help but shudder. Meetings must be recorded, which is a requirement of organizational discipline. If the ad hoc meeting is not recorded in time, it will have to be made up afterwards. The records of the municipal party committee must have recorded their deliberations on the presentation of gifts to the national conditions, and the comrades were full of enthusiasm when they said this. However, after all, everyone has received so much training and education, and they actually know that this kind of speech is extremely detrimental to everyone.
