Liang Jiangtao's purpose was not to scold or educate Zhou Yikun, but to help him rein in the situation and not arouse his rebellious psychology.
Zhou Yikun looked at Liang Jiatao's sincere look, and his face softened a little. He also felt that he might be too sensitive, and sighed: "I am still incompetent. The Ministry of Railways is not monolithic. Some veteran cadres are still very capable. , So many leading cadres have left the Ministry of Railways in recent years, they have a line between heaven and earth!"
"Go to the boss to report the black case against me and get rid of the dirty materials against me. It's impossible to guard against it!"
"I'm obviously retired, but I'm still gesticulating and interfering with the work of the current leader! I'm working hard day and night at the front, while they are shooting cold shots and stabbing knives in the back! Team Leader Liang, do you think there is such a thing? Is that so? Those people just don’t want to see me achieve anything. They care about personal gains and losses, regardless of the interests of the country and organizational rules! They even claim to be old party members and old revolutionaries. I’m ashamed of them. Panic!" Zhou Yikun complained wantonly, obviously full of anger and resentment.
"This matter is easy to say. In the final analysis, we are fighting for ideas. Before me, the railway system has been influenced by the idea of 'poor transition'. The railway construction concept and design concept have always been to save where possible and to be prudent. No The solution is that for a big country like ours with a vast territory and dense population, the demand for total railway mileage is huge. Railway construction can easily become a matter of "spreading sesame salt". But the country is also poor, so "spreading sesame salt" has to be like embroidery. There’s no way, we can’t complete the basic construction plan if we don’t do this.”
"However, the situation has changed now. In the 21st century, we have joined the World Trade Organization, and the economy is about to take off! We may even achieve the leapfrog development of the Four Asian Tigers in the 1980s! The kind of development that happened in the past The guiding ideology is out of date. If we don't change it in time and continue to use it, we will definitely be stuck in our ways and end up wasting a great opportunity!" Zhou Yikun said loudly, looking filled with indignation.
Liang Jiangtao nodded slowly, Zhou Yikun was telling the truth.
The situation is different, and adjustments must be made.
Objectively speaking, Zhou Yikun's changes are courageous and timely. They are of epoch-making significance in the history of China's railway development and have made an indelible contribution to the rapid development of the overall economy.
"So, as soon as I took office as minister, I proposed the overall idea of leapfrog development, requiring the total mileage of railways to be increased by 10,000 kilometers during my term, and electrification to be accelerated. I also made great adjustments to the technical route, starting from the road of independence. To the road of 'introduction and then localization'. Now that the Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railway has been approved, our railway will soon form a complete industrial chain, and even go global! It is obvious how much economic momentum and political impact this can generate! But those people turned a blind eye, saying that it was so wasteful and too radical. They also attacked me personally! Am I the radical, or are they too outdated?! The times are developing, and ideas must keep up! How can we do otherwise?" Zhou Yikun was angry? say.
"There are ideological disputes, and we are destined to be unable to unite as one. China is such a society, where people are connected, you have me, and I have you, we can't get rid of it! In the end, at a critical time, something broke out This kind of thing makes you laugh. My face is burning! I, Zhou Yikun, am not incapable, and I have never been afraid of any difficulties, but I really have nothing to do with them. You said that they only care about small groups and do not care about In the overall situation, it’s obviously not the case, it’s just a backward ideological concept, which is really harmful!”
Zhou Yikun suppressed his anger and even felt a lot of grievances. In his eyes, he was shot in the back this time.
Fortunately, those people did not have no bottom line. After holding him hostage, they did not continue to stab him, otherwise this matter would not have ended so easily.
Therefore, even though Zhou Yikun was extremely angry now, he could only suppress it in his heart and did not dare to take any action.
In a short period of time, he was completely captured.
A generation of strong men can only admit defeat.
If it weren't for Liang Jiangtao this time, I'm afraid the high-speed rail matter would have to be shelved, and his long-cherished wish would have to wait for a few more years.
I really can’t wait any longer!
"Minister Zhou, are the things reported true or false?" Liang Jiangtao continued to ask unceremoniously.
Zhou Yikun glanced at Liang Jiangtao and said: "Really or not, we are working hard for our careers and our country, how can we care about these details? Isn't it just eating and drinking? What's the big deal? Brother Liang, I just told you, Now it’s like this from top to bottom. As the head of a department, what does it matter if I have something to eat or drink?”
"How much has the railway contributed to economic growth over the years? How much is the pull effect? As the biggest contributor, how much contribution have I made? During the Western Industrial Revolution, how much reward did those railway tycoons, who are my current role, receive? That is How much money will my children and grandchildren spend in their lifetimes? How much do I get? I am a great minister, and my monthly salary is only 3,000 yuan. I have a 300-square-meter house for me to live in, and a car for me to ride in, but This all belongs to the country, and I will hand it back after I die! Not to mention, even if it is given to me, how much money will it have? Compared with my contribution, it is just a drop in the ocean, a drop in the ocean!"
Zhou Yikun seemed indifferent and felt very unbalanced.
He has already read the reporting materials. They are nothing more than some issues related to life style and extravagance and waste. Although economic issues are also mentioned, they are not fatal. As for those things about the Film and Television Center, those people have no idea at all, so He has confidence in his heart.
He asked himself about his financial problems in a very concealed manner, and there was someone behind him to help him with the overall operation, which was almost seamless.
Even if a special task force is sent to investigate him, nothing will be found, so there is no need to worry at all.
Liang Jiangtao was speechless.
Zhou Yikun actually compared himself to a railroad tycoon during the Western Industrial Revolution.
I feel that I have suffered a loss and the rewards I receive will never be as good as my contribution!
That’s why I feel so at ease when I become corrupted.
It’s just that he forgot that he was a member of the Communist Party and took an oath when he joined the party!
The highest goal he strives for throughout his life is not to obtain wealth that his descendants will not be able to spend in several lifetimes, but to eliminate exploitation and oppression and realize the unity of all mankind!
Now it seems that ideals and beliefs have long been abandoned to the Java Kingdom!
Liang Jiangtao's expression gradually turned grim and he said, "I'm afraid it's not that simple, right?"
"Brother Liang, what do you mean by that?" Zhou Yikun frowned.
Even though Liang Jiangtao is Mr. Liang's grandson, he is still the head of a department. Isn't it a bit confusing to talk to him like this?
