I Am the President of the University

Latest website: "Principal Chen?"

Feeling the two eyes on him, Chen Hao came back to his senses instantly and said with a smile: "Sorry, I was distracted for a while."

Secretary Xu Yonglin waved his hand, hesitated, and asked: "It's okay, but now I have to go look for him with Principal Mosh. Principal Chen, do you want to come with us?"

In fact, he wanted Chen Hao to join in. After all, more people have more power, but the other party's identity is too valuable. Director Yang gave many instructions before leaving, and he must entertain Principal Chen well. Safety issues are even more important. The most important thing.

"Okay." Chen Hao nodded and agreed.

Mo Shiyehei seemed a little surprised, but he didn't say much. He just secretly looked at Chen Hao with his peripheral vision.

Chen Hao went out with Xu Yonglin and Mo Shiyehei, and Xu Guangtai appeared out of nowhere and joined the team.

"Two Tigers!"

"Erhu!"

Erhu is Azi Rijie’s nickname.

The four of them were shouting while looking for Azi Rijie everywhere in the village. They also asked many elders in the village at the homes of friends with whom he was close, or in places where he often hung out, but they still couldn't find him.

The bright moon hangs high in the sky, and the moonlight shines on the earth like silver. I can't hear the chirping of insects in my ears.

Chen Hao glanced at his watch and saw that it was almost 9 p.m. \b

Secretary Xu Yonglin also had a trace of sadness on his brows. He stopped and said, "It's getting late. Let's go to Erhu's house again. Maybe we'll come back."

"Then what if you don't come back?" Chen Hao did not say these words, but just sighed and continued walking to the southeast of the village with Secretary Xu Yonglin.

This task was only given 48 hours. I thought it would be fine at first, but it turned out to be fine now. It has been two or three hours, and not even a trace of anyone has been seen.

It’s so difficult!

Daluo Village is at a higher altitude, so residential houses are scattered everywhere, and some even have to climb over a mountain to reach it.

Azi Rijie's home is still quite far from the village committee, about twenty minutes' walk.

But when he arrived at his destination, Chen Hao was stunned when he looked at the strange structure of a half-earth house and half-brick house in front of him.

Chen Hao’s reaction did not surprise Secretary Xu Yonglin. He told with a sense of helplessness: “In recent years, in order to help Daluo Village get rid of poverty and become rich, the state has allocated a lot of money, and the collective industry of the village has also improved. Basically, bricks have been built. House, except Erhu’s house..."

"Why...why?" Chen Hao looked confused.

"Alas," Xu Yonglin said with hatred, "The main problem is Erhu's father."

"Erhu's father works in Chengdu, but he is addicted to gambling. Not only did he never send the money back, he even defrauded the old man of his coffin."

“One of the two old men passed away a few years ago, and the villagers collected money to buy the coffin. Now only one grandma is left.

Cremation was practiced in the history of the Yi people. Until the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the Yi people in Yunnan, Guizhou and Guangxi basically changed to burial in coffins.

In addition, the Yi people also have tree burials, pottery burials, rock burials, water burials, sky burials, etc. (It is recorded in "Guizhou General Chronicles" and "Xichang County Chronicles·Yi Nationality Chronicles")

Chen Hao was silent.

Pornographic gambling, if you get involved in one of them, it will be almost impossible for your family to be happy.

Not to mention those who are addicted to gambling.

"Dong dong."

After a few knocks, the historic broken wooden door slowly opened.

An old woman with dark skin and wrinkles on her face appeared in front of everyone.

When the old lady saw that the person who came was Secretary Xu Yonglin, her folds trembled and her eyes narrowed so much that she could hardly see.

He said enthusiastically: "Secretary Xu, come in and have a drink of water."

"Grandma, I won't go in," Secretary Xu Yonglin poked his head into the door and asked, "Has Erhu come back? We've been looking for him all night."

"He hasn't come back yet. If he comes back, I will ask him to find you then."

"Okay, it's getting late. Grandma, please go to bed early. Let's go."

The entire conversation was in Yi, which Chen Hao couldn't understand anyway. Until Xu Yonglin turned around, he probably knew it was a failure.

Where did that person go?

Chen Hao didn't know.

Xu Yonglin didn't know either.

The group can only end their search tonight and continue after the sun rises tomorrow.

Early the next morning.

Chen Hao first went to Daluo Primary School. Standing outside the classroom, he saw that the teaching support team members on the stage were performing well. Although nervousness was inevitable, the overall performance was up to standard.

Then they met with Xu Yonglin, and the three of them continued to search for Azi Rijie.

Why three people? Because the summer camp has begun, and as the principal, Mosh naturally has to stay at the school day and night.

I searched many places and asked everyone I met on the road, but still had no clues.

Finally, Xu Yonglin found several friends of Azi Rijie and asked them again.

"Shitou, do you know which of the two tigers are good at playing?"

The child whose nickname was Shitou sucked his nose and read out a few names, but he had found most of them, except for one named "Jike Quyi".

"Principal Chen, the place where Jike Qu lives may be a bit far away..." Xu Yonglin reminded him specifically.

Chen Hao shook his head and said: "It's okay. Find the person first. How can he drop out of school in the second grade of junior high school?"

"Okay, let's set off. If we're lucky, we can come back in time for lunch." After saying that, Xu Yonglin strode towards the outside of the village.

Jike Quyi's home is not in the center of the village, but on the edge, and the distance is still quite large.

Along the way, it was completely over mountains and ridges.

Even though Chen Hao's physical strength was not low, he was still shocked.

"Secretary Xu, some of them live in remote areas. Doesn't the child have to walk for an hour to go to school?"

"One hour?"

Xu Yonglin sighed: "This is a small amount. The one farthest away from Daluo Primary School has to leave two hours in advance in order to catch the first class..."

"Two hours in advance?" Chen Hao opened his mouth wide, unable to imagine this scene at all.

Xu Yonglin looked into the distance, one mountain peak connected to another, with no end in sight.

"After climbing this slope, it's another slope; after walking this mountain, it's another mountain."

"Ten years ago in Daluo Village, there was not even a kindergarten in the whole village. The children in the village were completely left alone. They had no books to read, their clothes were dirty, and their faces were covered with mud. They gathered around the bonfire to keep warm in the winter."

"The children want to work and study abroad. They go out in the morning and come back in the afternoon. Do you know why?" Xu Yonglin said.

"Why?" Chen Hao asked.

"Because they don't know how to buy tickets, and they even forgot how to write their names." Xu Yonglin smiled, but the smile looked so sad.

"This is Daliang Mountain, the Daliang Mountain that you can't escape from." At the end of the sentence, Xu Yonglin's eyes softened.

"Fortunately, with the presence of Secretary Meng Bin, Daluo Village has been transformed and children have books to read. Only reading can change their destiny and let them get out of the mountains."

Secretary Meng Bin?

Is this the first time he has heard this name in Dalo Village?

Chen Hao asked curiously: "Who is this Secretary Meng Bin? Where is he now?"

Xu Yonglin suddenly stopped walking, took a deep breath, pointed to the side to the highest mountain peak, and said in a low voice: "Secretary Meng Bin is over there."

"there?"

Chen Hao followed the reassurance of Xu Yonglin's fingers and looked at it. He was confused at first, but gradually realized it and was shocked.

"Secretary Meng Bin is the first first secretary of Daluo Village. That's where Secretary Meng Bin is. Let me tell you a story."

The protagonist of the story is Meng Bin, a deputy director of a Tianfu provincial government unit. When the country vigorously selected cadres to go to the countryside to carry out poverty alleviation work, Meng Bin took the initiative to apply to the unit to become an honorable first secretary.

"At that time, Daluo Village was full of ruins, and villagers had lived in primitive and simple mud houses for generations. The village was divided into east and west sides. The east side received power in the morning, and the west side received power in the afternoon. The whole village had a power outage after 7 p.m."

"During the day, the children ran all over the hillside herding sheep with snotty noses; when it was time to eat, their mother brought either boiled potatoes or boiled wild vegetables; at night, the smelly cattle and sheep slept in the same house as people."

"It's not that no one sends their children to school. It's just that the Yi children in Daluo Village can't speak Mandarin. When they go to primary schools in the town, the teachers teach in Mandarin, but they don't understand. If they don't understand, they won't learn, and they won't be able to go to school for a few days. I’m making noises about dropping out of school.”

"Secretary Meng Bin wanted to change all this. He came to tell the adults: "If you don't study, you are 'deaf' and 'blind.' "

"But these villagers don't take it seriously. In their view, their ancestors have been the same for generations. Children just herd sheep and cattle, and then they grow up and stay like this all their lives."

"In order to gain the trust of the villagers, Secretary Meng Bin got up early every day to work for the gangster villagers. Over the past few months, the old people regarded him as their son, and the left-behind children regarded him as their father."

"only……"

Xu Yonglin couldn't speak anymore, his eyes were very red, and there were tears in his eyes.

"It's just that Secretary Meng Bin's mother is sick and has Alzheimer's disease. Every villager and child in Daluo Village knows Secretary Meng Bin, but when he came to his mother's bedside, her mother didn't recognize him..."

"Secretary Meng Bin felt sad, but he still did not leave Daluo Village because he said that when he first set foot on the land of Daluo Village, he saw the simplicity and simplicity in the children's eyes, which was the desire for knowledge. , curiosity about the world.”

“Every child deserves fair and quality education, and he wants to light a lamp to illuminate the path for these children to pursue education.”

"With the unremitting efforts of Secretary Meng Bin, Daluo Village Kindergarten and Primary School were established one after another. Just when everything was moving in a good direction..."

"Secretary Meng Bin was unfortunately killed in a landslide on his way back to Daluo Village from Xichang, and his car... was filled with students' teaching materials and stationery..."

Secretary Xu Yonglin couldn't speak anymore and wiped his tears with his sleeves.

Chen Hao was also very moved when he heard this.

Poverty alleviation is a major national plan and the mission of the Communist Party of China.

The first secretary is at the forefront of the fight against poverty.

In the early morning of June 17, 2019, Huang Wenxiu, the first secretary of Guihai Province, was killed in the line of duty when he encountered a flash flood on his way back to Leye from Baise. He was only 30 years old;

At about 6 pm on July 22, 2019, Wen Weihong, the first secretary of Daping Village in Zhongzhai Town, Guizhou Province, was accidentally electrocuted when he went to the Daping Villagers Group to inspect the flue-cured tobacco industry. He died on the front line of poverty alleviation at the age of 45. age;

On October 16, 2019, Ran Jingqing, the first secretary of Dahekou Village in Cangling Town, Shancheng, suddenly fell ill at work. Rescue efforts failed and he died in the fight against poverty. He was only 41 years old;

November 2019…

Some people leave the mountains and never come back.

Some people come back from the city but never leave.

At this important moment marking the centenary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, our country has achieved an all-round victory in the fight against poverty.

All 98.99 million rural poor people have been lifted out of poverty, all 832 impoverished counties have been lifted out of poverty, and all 128,000 impoverished villages have been listed.

Regional overall poverty has been solved, the arduous task of eliminating absolute poverty has been completed, and one miracle after another has been created that will shine in the annals of history!

Behind this, there are more than 1,800 first secretaries and grassroots cadres who have fixed their lives on the journey of poverty alleviation.

If miracles had a color, it would be Chinese Red!

Chen Hao had a question, "Secretary Xu, how do you know so clearly?"

"Because I am a colleague of Secretary Meng Bin's former unit."

Secretary Xu Yonglin touched the party emblem on his left chest, which shone brightly in the sun.

"The mission that Secretary Meng Bin failed to complete will be completed by me."

In this chapter, I watched a lot of documentaries and realized how great the First Secretary was.

Pay tribute to the 1,800 comrades who sacrificed their lives in the fight against poverty!

People's heroes, immortal! !
