Volume 20 Looking at the World with Cold Eyes, Chapter 59, Catfish?
Although Lu Weimin's tone just now spoke in front of the General Secretary was tactful and implicit, the meaning it revealed was clear. His words directly point to some of the current employment mechanisms of the diplomatic department. He believes that the diplomatic department is too narrow in selecting people from the diplomatic department, and it is a bit inbreeding. There is a lack of communication with external parties. The major impact of the lack of external exchanges is that these people do not understand China's internal interests and do not know the current development process of China. In external exchanges, it is impossible to clarify the fundamentals of China's current national interests, nor do they actively attack and fight for their own national interests for China, but passively discuss the matter. On the international stage, China's style as the world's second largest economic power and a permanent member of the Security Council cannot be reflected.
This statement was shocking to the General Secretary. In fact, some opinions and opinions are also clear that the General Secretary is not ignorant, but this involves adjustments to the employment direction. From the perspective of the General Secretary, we must consider the overall stability, so we need to consider more thoroughly. Lu Weimin made such a shot at this time, and in front of several leaders, including the State Councilor and the Director of the Central Political Research Office, this undoubtedly makes clear something. The General Secretary cannot be indifferent to this anymore, and no one can explain what changes this will bring.
However, there is one thing that Zhao Jiahuai can be sure of. Lu Weimin's impression in the minds of the General Secretary and the State Councilor suddenly became clear. A cadre who dared to take risks and act, dared to break through the stereotype, and played his strengths in a vague way on the front of foreign exchanges. Not to mention the other things, just the breakthrough of establishing a military base in Djibouti is enough to explain everything. This does not mention some of the ideological breakthroughs and innovations proposed by Lu Weimin. Zhao Jiahuai probably is the latter that the General Secretary is most interested in.
"For the people, after you go back, you may have to seize the time to rewrite the things you have after, especially some ideas and opinions on the development relationships between diplomatic employment/national civil society groups/local news media people/industrial organizations, etc. in foreign exchanges. As for the economic and trade sector, I think there are people who are more professional than us to worry about, and what I just said is what we need to pay attention to most now, and it is also the most urgent issue that the central leaders think is."
Zhao Jiahuai has a good grasp of the situation. He is afraid that Lu Weimin did not understand the priorities of the tasks assigned by the General Secretary after this conversation. Whether it is the breakthroughs made by the delegation in military exchanges, or how many major orders and investments signed in economic and trade exchanges, these are not the most important. Next time, the military and relevant leaders of the State Council will listen to relevant reports on many specific areas. The General Secretary is concerned about the dark flaws and shortcomings in our foreign exchanges and the impact on our diplomacy. At the same time, the cannon that Lu Weimin fired is even more deadly. Zhao Jiahuai estimated that General Secretary may still be recalling Lu Weimin's words at this moment.
"I understand. After I finish writing, I will ask you to check it out." Lu Weimin nodded.
Zhao Jiahuai could only nod, and he also understood that he was now tied to Lu Weimin. Many of Lu Weimin's views were obviously not related to the Central Political Research Office. It was mainly based on the perspective of the General Office of the Central Committee. As the Minister, it was impossible for him to know nothing about Lu Weimin's views and opinions. Maybe some people would think that Lu Weimin would make this voice with his support. Of course, it would not make much sense to say that these things are already there. Since we have already heard the heavens, we should just explain the problem thoroughly. Zhao Jiahuai is not a person who is not without care.
*************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
The report of Lu Weimin was circulated in a large range, and it was obtained by both the party, the military, or relevant leaders of the State Council. Although this report was only a report that Lu Weimin had reserved, it still caused a great shock wave.
Many of the views and opinions put forward in the report are not available in previous similar reports, especially the proposal that each front should take the initiative to attack. Based on international interests, we carry out work pioneering and creatively, actively seek various opportunities and opportunities, and put forward our own opinions on some issues. If the relatively reserved report is intuitively felt, it is still very impactful, especially the mentality of some people who are content with the status quo and follow the steps.
Lu Weimin seemed to have not felt the influence of these factors and was still moving forward according to his own path, but the Spring Festival was about to be right, and what he had to do was not accomplished in one or two days. After submitting his follow-up report to the central government, the Spring Festival in 2010 was already here.
Lu Weimin could imagine that his follow-up report might have caused a greater shock wave, but it doesn't matter. The first report and his generous speech to the General Secretary have made him a "public enemy" of many people in the domestic and foreign affairs departments. He believed that he was sensationalizing and selling loyalty, especially when he mentioned that cadres in the diplomatic department should absorb cadres from local and other central departments into the community. He believed that cadres in the diplomatic field were self-admiring and working behind closed doors, had unclear understanding of China's national strategic interests and lacked clear means. This was simply ridiculous and an insult to cadres in the diplomatic field.
Later, the leaders of the military and the State Council also listened to Lu Weimin's report. Of course, their respective emphasis was different. The military had military ideas and intentions, while the State Council focused more on economic and trade exchanges and its impact on the national economy. Lu Weimin also talked about many of his views in different categories. He gained great support from the military, but it was quite complicated on the State Council. After all, he was a little overused. Although some views were recognized by relevant ministries and commissions of the State Council, it still made them feel a little uncomfortable when they came out of the mouth of a deputy director of the Central Political Research Office and deputy minister of the General Office of the CPC Central Committee. This should have been their own business.
Of course, Lu Weimin would not estimate himself too much. To be honest, the opinions he put forward were more referenced to some things in his past life's memories. In addition, he came from the local level and could be considered an outsider. He could look at the problem from a clear perspective of bystanders, so many problems could be seen more clearly.
This year's Spring Festival is the first time that Lu Weimin has gotten rid of local work and affairs and can spend the first Spring Festival with peace of mind. Unlike in the past, even if he is not on duty, as the main leader of the local area, you are concerned about small matters. But if something really happens, no matter whether you are the mayor or secretary, county magistrate or county party secretary, you have to rush back as soon as possible. It can be said that you really take that position and there is no time to really relax completely.
But the situation is different now. Whether it is the Central Political Research Office or the Universal Department of the CPC Central Committee, there is no particularly important thing during the Spring Festival that will make him, the deputy, have to come forward, which also means that he can rest assured and spend the whole year peacefully.
It is of course a good thing to be able to celebrate the Chinese New Year safely, but the work in hand cannot be delayed at all. Lu Weimin also knew that since he had already pierced the sky, all kinds of bustling things would come after the year. He was not afraid of it. The soldiers came to block the generals and the water came to cover the soil. Since it was pierced, it would be better to smash some bottles and jars and create a new pattern.
"You are so light, you've said it lightly. After piercing the sky and leaving a mess, you haven't thought about how to make Lao Zhao be a human being?" Xia Lixing picked up a chopstick dish and chewed slowly. "There were division of labor and cooperation between the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. It's reasonable to have some uncoordinated ideas. You can bite your tongue. But you're so pretty. You have to do something. You can understand it. You can do things. People know that you don't have to do it. You have to lift up the scars behind others, right? Besides, your opinions and opinions are not completely flawless. Many diplomatic matters cannot be seen for a while. Maybe it will take months or even years to come to a conclusion. You may not be suitable for taking your style of doing things in the local area to the ministries and commissions."
"Secretary Xia, I know that my style may not be suitable for the Central Political Research Office and the Central Committee, but why does the Central Committee place me in this position? Is it unlikely that the Central Committee will lie dormant in this winter without knowing my style?" Lu Weimin said with a smile: "My understanding, the Central Committee knows that I like to make trouble and find trouble and do things, and knowing that my virtue still puts me here, it means that the leader is also intentional, and I can't make the sky. Just like what you said, breaking through the sky and leaking some fresh air, maybe it's like a catfish, which changes the dull atmosphere?"
Catfish? Catfish effect? Xia Lixing was slightly stunned, and the chopsticks in his hand stopped, lowered his head, and began to think silently.
