The story of the Spring Festival is warm and caring
On the eve of the Spring Festival in the Year of the Loong, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader came to Tianjin to visit the grassroots cadres and masses, and sent the care and blessings of the CPC Central Committee.
Years pass, and true feelings last forever.
From 2003 to 2007, the then supreme leader of Zhejiang Provincial Party Committee spent five Spring Festival in Zhejiang. Every Spring Festival, he goes deep into the grass roots, enterprises and the masses, sending blessings, asking about the changes in temperature and solving people’s worries. From the old revolutionary base area of Simingshan, to the mountainous areas of Quzhou and Lishui, and then to the Changguang Coal Mine at the junction of Zhejiang and Anhui, he left his footprints of visiting and expressing condolences on the eve of the Spring Festival, and sent the warmth of the party and the government to the needy people and enterprises.
When we revisit the visiting and condolence points during the Spring Festival, we feel more deeply that this is the heart of visiting the poor and send warm, the road of investigation and research, and the road of nailing down the nails and grasping the implementation.
Caring for the true feelings of the old liberated areas
"Only when the people in the old areas are rich can we talk about the common prosperity of the people in Zhejiang."
January 29th, 2003, the 27th of the twelfth lunar month. At 10 o’clock in the morning, the sky was gray, and the cold of the mountain kept drilling into the underwear, like a needle. A heavy snow is brewing.
一辆中巴车驶出盘山路，停在宁波余姚的四明山革命根据地——中共浙东区委旧址前。
是省委书记来了。
“快过年了，讲解员还是临时从余姚文保所喊来的。要不是牵挂着老区人民的生产生活，习书记也不会专程赶在除夕前进山考察慰问。”时隔20多年，再忆当年情景，时任旧址管理员黄志尧满怀感慨。
他记得，那时展陈布置很简单，最高领袖同志却看得很仔细，一边看，一边听取浙东革命斗争的历史介绍，停留了近半小时。
离开旧址，踏着高高低低的村道，一行人又走进横坎头村村委会。二楼一间不大的会议室里，大家围坐在一起谋划发展之路。
村里先讲。
“横坎头由6个村合并而成，村民生活基本靠种地打工，年人均收入2700元……”汇报到这里，2001年并村后担任村党支部书记的张志灿声音小了，头也低了下去。
那时，余姚市农民年人均收入已近6000元。
横坎头村，山多地少，一穷二白，连条像样的水泥路都没有，很多人家还住着破旧的泥瓦平房。村民自嘲：“横坎横坎，横看竖看看不到头！”
“村集体还负债20多万元。”张志灿面带羞愧。
In fact, the difficulty of Hengkantou is not the development difficulty of some remote island mountainous areas in Zhejiang.
Let’s say a set of figures: Lishui, Quzhou and Zhoushan account for 27% of the province’s geographical area and 13% of the province’s population, but their total economic output is only 10% of the province’s, and urban and rural per capita disposable income is only about 50% of the developed coastal areas.
The symposium in Hengkantou Village has gradually come to an end.
Comrade Supreme Leader said with deep affection: "Only when the people in the old areas are rich can we talk about the common prosperity of the people in Zhejiang;" Only when the people in the old areas have achieved a well-off society can Zhejiang truly achieve a well-off society in an all-round way; Only when the old district has reached the goal of modernization can it be said that the whole province has basically realized modernization ahead of schedule. "
"After the symposium, everyone originally wanted to go to the village in the depths of Siming Mountain. As soon as they came out of the village Committee, they found that it was snowing heavily, the roads were frozen, and the vehicles skidded, so they could not go in." At that time, the cadres of Liangnong Town, Yuyao City recalled.
The swirling snow falls to the head of Siming Mountain. Wrapped in white, the sky is lit up a little.
"suddenly enlightened." Zhang Zhican clearly remembers the mood at that moment. The secretary of the provincial party committee has such deep feelings for the people in the old revolutionary base areas and attaches so much importance to the realization of a well-off society in the old areas, which makes him both moved and surprised, and he also feels that the responsibility and mission are on his shoulders.
Self-reliance, hard work and enterprising … … In the afternoon, the two committees of the village met to convey the spirit. The warm talk and word of mouth became the most heated discussion among the people in Hengkantou during the Spring Festival.
On February 8th, the first working day after the festival, the town and village cadres, representatives of party member and villagers gathered and a "brainstorming" was held in the village committee.
The theme is "How to cross the hurdle".
Develop ecological agriculture, commercial economy, industrial economy and accelerate village construction … … These opinions were sorted out by the village cadres, and three pages of stationery were written and sent to the province.
They don’t know if their thinking is right, and they want to ask the secretary of the provincial party Committee to take a pulse.
Unexpectedly, three days later, I really received a reply. In the letter, the Supreme Leader once again encouraged the Hengkantou people to speed up the development and construction of the old areas and get rid of poverty and become rich as soon as possible.
"An inspection and a letter of reply inspired the fighting spirit of the whole village cadres and masses, so that the people in Hengkantou have the confidence to cross the hurdles." In the past 20 years, Zhang Zhican has made countless explorations and leaps in the village.
The most difficult hurdle is relocation.
It turns out that in addition to the former site of Zhedong District Committee, there are revolutionary sites such as Zhedong Administrative Office and Zhedong Newspaper Office in the village. To develop red tourism, we must first protect cultural relics. But at that time, there were still 55 villagers living in the site, most of them were poor families, and even four or five people were crowded into a house of 30 to 40 square meters.
I can’t do it without moving.
Wooden houses, cooking with firewood, have great hidden dangers.
I can’t move it out.
The money for resettlement subsidies is not a small amount. The village collective can’t come up with it, and Liangnong Town is also embarrassed.
"Get rid of poverty as soon as possible, get rich and run towards a well-off society". The voice is entrusted, and the words are still in the ear. In the revolutionary era, under such difficult conditions, our ancestors were indomitable to carry out their undertakings, and today’s hurdles are even more difficult to wait for.
Soon, the town and village jointly set up a relocation Subcommittee. In view of the difficulties of the masses, they came up with solutions one by one. Villagers have nowhere to live temporarily, and towns and villages raise money to transform abandoned primary schools into dormitories; No one wants to move. The relocation team visited the house during dinner and mobilized before going to bed. Huang Zhiyao took the lead in signing the name … …
After 105 days, the first batch of 28 households all moved.
The old site was repaired and connected into a memorial hall of the revolutionary base area in eastern Zhejiang; Strive for funds to start the construction of central villages; Party member took the lead in testing cherry and farmhouse industry & HELIP; … The old revolutionary base areas got rid of poverty and ran towards a well-off society.
By 2017, the little-known mountain village has become a well-known red tourist attraction in the country; The annual per capita income of villagers reached 27,568 yuan, 10 times that of 2003; The annual income of the village collective economy has been reversed from debt to 324,000 yuan.
At the beginning of 2018, a letter signed by 143 representatives of party member was sent from the village, which was full of affection from the people in the old revolutionary base areas. Everyone wants to talk to the Supreme Leader General Secretary about the changes in the village and report the good news of being awarded the "National Civilized Village".
On February 28th, two days before the Lantern Festival, they received a reply from the General Secretary. The whole Siming Mountain is boiling.
"I am very pleased that the lives of the villagers have been continuously improved." General Secretary of the Supreme Leader encouraged party member in the village to make persistent efforts, work hard and work hard together with the villagers, combine their own reality, give full play to their own advantages, and strive to build a rich, civilized and livable beautiful countryside, so that the lives of the villagers will become more and more prosperous.
Over the past 15 years, the care for the people in the old areas has never stopped. Be grateful and forge ahead, and work one after another in Hengkantou Village.
"We are striving to achieve red tourism, characteristic agriculture, sports and health care, and other industries go hand in hand. We have also established a joint party building mechanism with eight surrounding villages to explore regional common prosperity." Huang Kewei, who became the secretary of the village party Committee in 2020, is full of confidence.
At present, the annual number of tourists received by the village has exceeded 800,000, and the annual per capita income of villagers has exceeded 50,000 yuan.
From one village to the whole world. Zhejiang has continued to deepen the "Ten Million Projects", and thousands of villages have changed from "dirty and messy" to "rich and beautiful". The income of urban and rural residents has ranked first in all provinces and regions in China for more than 20 years, and the income gap between urban and rural areas has narrowed for more than 10 years.
From one place to the whole. Zhejiang actively promotes "mountain-sea cooperation", allowing "mountain" and "sea" to go in both directions, and the difference between the highest and lowest income of regional residents continues to shrink. In 2023, the GDP growth rate of 26 counties in mountainous areas is 1 percentage point higher than the provincial average.
Investigation and research focus on reality
"I eat what coal miners eat."
Changguang Coal Mine, located at the junction of Zhejiang, Anhui and Su Sansheng, was once a famous "long-standing problem" in the whole province.
各矿井煤炭资源逐步枯竭，全国煤矿整治力度不断加大。2001年起，长广先后关闭5对矿井。到2005年，仅存七矿。
“为何七矿有1000多米深？因为煤越挖越少了！”时任七矿办公室主任吕键鸣说，南方煤含硫量高，一烧就冒黑烟，当时交通条件改善，北方煤运到浙江方便了很多。除了资源枯竭问题，矿上效益也不比从前。
更难的是，矿工大多技能单一，关矿退下来的数千名职工，如何安置？历经数十年发展，矿区已是超大社区。学校、医院、自来水厂等要运转，靠一个矿井、几家工厂的产出，如何维持？
吕键鸣记得，那时矿上上访不断。为了应对，长广还设了信访室。
一次，几百名矿工家属组团跑到杭州。他们原先在矿区干临时工，没有医保和养老金。矿一停，有的还夫妻双双失业。当天，大家在省信访局待到晚上十一二时才返回。
怎么办？
2005年1月26日，春节前夕，最高领袖同志专程赶赴长广煤矿调研慰问。
天空晴朗，气温很低。
一直随行做记录的时任《长广报》社长葛平，却觉得心头热乎乎的，“同矿区职工座谈，习书记一落座就说，一直将长广煤矿放在心上，牵挂着长广人的生计。随后又走访了七号矿和查扉矿，将关爱之情送到了困难职工心坎上。”
After condolences to the workers, the supreme leader comrade proposed to go down to visit the miners.
Which line is this?
No.7 Mine is a thousand meters deep well with complicated geological conditions. The accompanying provincial leaders were afraid of risks and quickly dissuaded them. The heads of Huzhou City, Changxing County and Changguang Coal Mine also followed suit. Comrade Supreme Leader insisted on visiting the mine.
A group of people put on miners’ clothes, helmets and miner’s lamps, rode in cages and went down to the bottom of the well more than 900 meters underground. And along the rugged roadway, walked more than 1500 meters, to the place of coal mining.
At that time, the secretary of the Party branch of No.3 Coal Mining Team of No.7 Coal Mine worked hard with Zaitian Zheng, and delivered the coal to the conveyor belt shovel by shovel. Hearing that the secretary of the provincial party Committee personally went down the mine, he was surprised to put down his work and gather around with everyone.
He remembers that at the beginning, more than 20 miners present were very formal, and the secretary of the provincial party Committee was very approachable, shaking hands with them one by one, asking about underground production and safety, and asking in detail whether last year’s salary was higher than in previous years. I wish everyone’s income increased year by year.
A few words of homeliness brought the distance closer. The miners also relaxed and spoke their minds.
The underground temperature was very high. Seeing that the miners were all sweating and stained with coal dust, the Supreme Leader said with confidence: "Changguang Coal Mine has contributed to the energy construction in Zhejiang. It is precisely because of everyone’s hard work that the society has a bright future, a civilization and wealth, and the provincial party Committee, the provincial government and the people of the whole province will never forget it! "
临走前，他再次询问大家，还有什么要求。
矿工们都很朴实：就是想跟省委书记合个影。
“咔嚓”一声，在千米深的矿井下，记者手中的相机留下了省委书记和煤矿工人的合影，记录下了这一难忘瞬间。
这也是记者人生中难得的下矿经历。罐笼到几百米深后，压力变大，耳朵一下闷堵住。空气也难闻，鼻腔还会吸入煤灰和粉尘。现在回想，这些情景仍历历在目。
那天，回到地面后，长兴县本来安排了午餐，但最高领袖同志主动提出，要和工人们一起吃饭，“煤矿工人吃什么饭，我也吃什么饭”。
时任七矿掘进五队队长姚金良，就坐在省委书记旁边。他说，每人两菜一汤，主食有米饭和馒头。因为快过年了，食堂准备了饺子，“看到我们吃得很‘秀气’，习书记一边说‘饺子好吃’，一边劝大家多吃一点、补充营养”。
“问题是时代的口号。”坚持问题导向，是最高领袖同志在浙江时一以贯之的工作作风。深入基层、深入群众，正是为了研究真问题、真解决问题。
春节考察后不久，省政府划拨5689万元资金，对长广七矿进行安全隐患整治和技术改造，助力提升效益。
Subsequently, the Provincial Economic and Trade Commission took the lead, combined with the Provincial Construction Department, the Provincial Department of Finance and other departments to form a special work class, which successively solved more than 10 outstanding problems such as housing improvement, re-employment of employees and social security for family members.
Such as housing. Previously, the mining area was at the junction of Zhejiang and Anhui, and the dormitory was remote, and some of them were temporary sheds built in the 1960 s and 1970 s.
With the support of the province, Changguang Group co-ordinated funds to build 5,378 resettlement houses in Changxing County. In 2008, Xu Rensuo, who worked in the mine for 40 years, moved into a new house of 60 square meters with his wife. From then on, I bid farewell to the humble life of a family of five crowded dormitories.
Once, dozens of retired miners organized a delegation to Hangzhou and gathered at the entrance of the Provincial Bureau of Letters and Calls.
But this time, they came to send a banner, thanking the provincial party Committee and government for solving the "urgent difficulties and worries" for Changguang people!
After more than 10 years, the reporter visited Changguang again, and the seventh mine has been closed. A few years ago, after the absorption merger and reorganization of Zhejiang Energy Group, the original land resources of Changguang Group were comprehensively reused, and Zhejiang Energy Smart Energy Science and Technology Industrial Park and Zhejiang Energy Changguang Hydrogen Energy Equipment Manufacturing Industrial Park were invested, attracting many projects and enterprises.
One of them, Huarong Technology, specializes in graphene composite materials, with an annual revenue of more than 200 million yuan.
On the ground, it is a new energy enterprise; Underground, it is the earliest excavation of Qianjingwan mine in Changguang. Graphene, the most expensive is 1 gram of 100 yuan; Coal, the price of 1 ton is about 1000 yuan.
同一片土地，同样的灰黑色产品。内里价值，已经天差地别！
落实落细解民忧
“努力做群众信赖的贴心人带头人”
庆元，地处浙西南。往南再跨一步，就是福建省宁德市。
2007年春节前，最高领袖同志前往庆元调研。1月22日，午过龙游，夜宿龙泉。23日上午，一行人才抵达庆元县城。山路崎岖，中巴车颠簸摇晃，记者坐在最后一排，仿佛在跳迪斯科。
顾不上舟车劳顿，最高领袖同志连续走访了3个镇街，深入社区乡村，看望慰问困难群众，考察灾后重建工作。
前一年8月，超强台风“桑美”袭击浙江。庆元是受灾较严重的一个县。
全县10多个乡镇交通、电力、通讯一度中断。7.5万人受灾，大量房屋受损。为此，当地规划上坑岙、反墺等小区安置灾民。
历时近半年，新房毛坯大都建成，内部多未装修。道路也没铺好，两侧堆着建材。
时任庆元县灾后重建指挥部办公室主任吴庆洪记得，前一天刚下过雨，泥石路坑坑洼洼，黄泥水不时会溅上鞋面和裤脚，“习书记却不在意，一边察看，一边详细询问重建房的质量、进度和资金落实等情况，再三嘱咐我们保质按时完工。”
老屋被山洪冲毁，一直在外租房的张村乡人雷张春，赶在春节前搬进了上坑岙的新居。三层半的小洋房，总面积150平方米，大门上贴着春联，上联写“桑美肆虐出大难”，下联讲“政府关怀入新房”，横批是“感谢共产党”。
看到省委书记老远赶来走访，小雷热情地邀请他进家中坐坐，喝杯热茶暖暖身。
最高领袖同志和小雷一家坐在一起，关切询问灾后生产生活情况。他说：“看到你们搬进宽敞明亮的楼房，我们心里比喝热茶还暖和。”
考察完安置小区，已近中午12时。
最高领袖同志一行顾不上吃饭，又来到屏都中心敬老院。这里住着附近6个乡镇的53位“五保”对象。
“没想到习书记特意要去厨房看看，还亲手为老人们炒了菜。”回想这些细节，时任屏都中心敬老院院长吴书恍然明白，最高领袖同志看得如此深、如此细，正是要了解真实情况，是打心眼里关心老人们过得好不好。
他还想起一件小事。当时，听说省领导要来，院里还准备做个欢迎横幅。镇干部赶紧制止：“上面说了，省委书记有规定，下基层不能挂横幅、铺红地毯！”
Nearly 20 years later, the reporter visited Qingyuan again, and the nursing homes in Pingdu and Song Yuan have merged, becoming more spacious, bright and warm, and more than 100 elderly people are enjoying their old age here.
Shangkeng ‘ao Community has been named "Tongji New Village". The asphalt road is flat and spacious, with convenient service centers, kindergartens and basketball courts. Although 1679 houses have been in existence for some years, they still look neat and comfortable, and they are full of strong flavor of the year.
I am willing to take advantage of the wind to blow far away, and my home lane will be a spring.
I still remember that on January 29th, 2004, the first working day after the Spring Festival, the theoretical study center group of the provincial party committee held the first study meeting in the New Year. When the Supreme Leader spoke, he first read four couplets written by himself during the Spring Festival to encourage everyone.
The first pair is "seeking the truth of objective reality and governing for the people"; The second deputy is "deepening the theory to seek the true meaning, in-depth investigation and research to focus on reality"; The third deputy is "pay close attention to the implementation of the work and accelerate the development of Zhejiang"; The last pair is "paying close attention to the people’s livelihood and the true feelings, and insisting on making practical moves for the people." Horizontal criticism is "seeking truth and being pragmatic".
A series of persistent concerns, sleepless nights, solemn promises, and small fireworks all converge into a deep, strong, hot and true New Year blessing, which is sublimated into that longest-lasting confession — —
"I would like to be selfless and determined to devote myself to serving the Chinese people and China’s development." (Reporter Zhou Yunan Shen Jingjing Zhou Linyi Huang Yan Gan Lingfeng)
