There are many ways for officials to do this. This leader was the only person Wang Xiaolie had ever seen who was praised by everyone for being an official. At a young age, he has become a deputy municipal leader and has a bright future. Being praised and praised by his subordinates and appreciated by his superiors, he also thinks highly of himself.
Of all the people, only Wang Xiaolie did not approve of this leader. During that meeting, it was obvious that he was completely unfamiliar with the job. It is relying on one's own personal ability to create an illusion. This illusion can deter most people, but it cannot fool Wang Xiaolie.
If an official wants to do well, there are various ways. Some people rely on ability, some rely on relationships, some rely on contacts, some rely on secretaries, and some rely on ability. There is no doubt about the leadership ability. Everyone except Wang Xiaolie praises him for his outstanding ability.
However, Wang Xiaolie didn't like this kind of ability. Wang Xiaolie didn't want to understand why everyone praised it. In your own world, it shouldn't be like this. What Wang Xiaolie needs are different officials.
Wang Xiaolie has never felt that everyone in the world is drunk and I am alone, but has always firmly believed that there is nothing special about people in the world. I remember that when he was taking the postgraduate entrance examination in his previous life, Wang Xiaolie did not review politics. I just bought a copy of "Reference News" every day, and then read the news online in my spare time. In the end, I got a score of a little over 80 in the exam.
Politics is not particularly complicated. As long as you understand the logic, everything can be sorted out. That's what leadership is like. For him, no matter what kind of work, he can quickly sort out the clues and organize it in an orderly manner. Isn't this ability? This is of course an ability, and it is an ability that is beyond the reach of many people.
It's just that in Wang Xiaolie's politics, this ability is not needed. Maybe people are just so weird, they think the things I can do are nothing special. Especially for yourself, if you can do it easily without any effort, that's even worse.
After clearing his thoughts, Wang Xiaolie said: "Many officials are dissatisfied with this boat gambling case. Some people are afraid that one day they will be treated like this in the future. Some people are kind-hearted and think they think more than me. Zhou Quan, you will suffer in the future if you do this. Most people don’t think so much, they just feel that this is not a common practice in official circles, and they think that I will not be an official."
Having said this, Wang Xiaolie smiled. He said: "What they think is their business. But one thing is certain, as long as I am still in charge of all this, the officialdom will be very different from before. Those who can adapt, let us go together. Those who cannot adapt, let us separate as soon as possible. People who become officials in the future should take the initiative to think clearly whether they can adapt to this kind of officialdom. If they can't adapt, resign as soon as possible and don't end up making things look bad to everyone."
"I tell you all this to let you understand that the future Yamen will be different from the past. In other words, we are doing a great and great thing that has never been done before. Many previous concepts need to be changed. Where can we change them? , of course we must first change our thinking.”
"Many people think that there is nothing to talk about about ideological issues. Who among the officials doesn't understand? Some people even hate it, thinking that the people who talk about it are looking down on themselves. But in fact, the most common problem is in thinking. "
"Sima Jun once said something when he was a saint. The prime minister uses Dao to assist the people, and how to use it? If you don't use the example, you will be a subordinate official! Is this sentence correct? It is correct. Don't say he is a prime minister. For We generally do not require officials to use examples. If they use examples, it is the job of the officials. Decades have passed, and when Sima Guang was prime minister, did he realize that the country was rich and the people were strong? The country was peaceful and the people were safe? Were the foreigners submissive? No. So the question Where is the problem? I think the biggest question is, does Sima Guang understand the Tao?"
After saying this, the people below were startled and couldn't help but talk about it.
Zhao Gou came to power and believed that the chaos caused by the new party's reforms was a major reason why the Song Dynasty was defeated by the Jin army. He respected Yuanyou Party members, used Yuanyou's methods in managing politics, and also favored those from Yuanyou's old party when promoting talents. Although Wang Xiaolie did not directly support the New Party, he looked down on the Yuanyou Party members. In particular, Sima Guang, the spiritual leader of the Yuanyou Party, has been regarded as a negative example many times.
Zhao Gou's bad impression of Wang Xiaolie started with their different attitudes towards the new party and the old party.
Wang Xiaolie said: "What is Tao? Many people think they understand it, and they talk about it endlessly and have a lot of theories. But how to use Tao to guide our actual work, few people can explain clearly. Frankly speaking, it has always been Until now, I have never seen such a person. So when I talk about being an official, I always start with Tao."
"What is Tao? Laozi said that Tao can be Tao, but it is not Tao; it can be named, but it is not named. Nameless is the beginning of all things; named is the mother of all things. Therefore, there is always no desire to observe its wonders. There is always desire to observe its wonders. "Xiao, these two have the same origin but different names, and they are both called xuan. Mystery is mysterious, and it is the door to all mysteries."
"We are officials, and our understanding of Tao is of course different from that of Lao Tzu. But in principle, there shouldn't be much difference. Tao can be Tao, but it is not Tao; names can be named, but they are not names. These two sentences must be particularly important. Pay attention. People who preached the Tao Te Ching in later generations often wanted to talk about what the Tao Te Ching is, covering everything from the black and yellow colors of heaven and earth to the various forms of the world. It seems that if I can’t explain it clearly, he can explain it clearly. How is this possible? People are here In this world, if you want to learn knowledge, you must first start by saying I don’t know.”
"I remember the first time I entered school. I studied with Mr. Mengxue for a day and learned three words: one, two, three. After school, I came to my father very happy and said that I had learned one, two, and three. My father asked me to write to He looked at it. I drew a few lines on the ground and said these were the characters one, two and three. My father smiled and said, how to write four? I thought about it, then I drew four lines on the ground and said 4. Father smiled, nodded, and said nothing."
"Later I learned that four is not written that way. Of course, now I know that four can also be written that way, but it is not commonly used. We learn a lot of knowledge, and it is like this. After learning one, two, and three, I feel that I can also write four. , I even think I can write five, six, seven, eight, nine. Children are inevitably like this. After learning a little knowledge, they feel like they know everything. After primary school, when you become an adult, you can't be like this."
A lot of knowledge is often like this. When I first started studying, I felt that I had learned a lot and understood everything about this subject. When I have learned deeply, I feel that this knowledge is very difficult and I can't learn it no matter what.
There is a Western fable that is often quoted. It is said that a great scholar drew a circle. When I first started learning, I only knew one point and felt I understood everything. When you learn more, you become a circle and you come into contact with more unknowns.
This story was remembered by Wang Xiaolie not because of how profound the truth was, but because many people were wrong about it. When many people talk about it, they will say that when they first learn, they have little knowledge, but they also have little unknowns. When you learn more knowledge, you will also know more things you don’t know. how can that be possible? With more knowledge learned, of course there will be less unknowns, and will there be more? Obviously when I first started learning, although there were many unknowns, I had little exposure. There are fewer unknowns behind, but there are more contacts. After learning, there will be more unknowns, so what are you learning?
For such a simple story, Wang Xiaolie had no idea how many people told it incorrectly. When speaking, the speaker was very proud and felt that he was well-informed. If someone among the listeners also knew this story, the two of them would smile knowingly.
Laugh at your head. The truth of this story is extremely simple. It can only be told to children. It is normal for adults to be annoyed. However, Wang Xiaolie's understanding of the world is very different. Not only do adults say it, but many people say it wrong.
Sometimes, Wang Xiaolie would suspect that he was abnormal. Why do people talk about things that I think are extremely simple, and why do people who listen to them feel so excited? Later, I finally realized that most people have never thought carefully about what they say. And the people listening don't care about right or wrong, they just listen.
