"May the Year of the Tiger be auspicious and live a tiger!" "I wish the tiger and the tiger a mighty life!" ...... During the Spring Festival of the Year of the Tiger, a sentence of blessings related to the tiger was passed between Chinese, expressing people's good wishes.
In traditional Chinese culture, the tiger is the king of a hundred beasts, a symbol of strength, bravery and fearlessness. The ancient Chinese people admired the tiger very much, especially in the military, because the image of the tiger is majestic, often used to praise the brave and good soldiers in the army, and the voucher used in ancient times to dispatch troops is made in the shape of a tiger, called the tiger symbol. In the folk, the image of the tiger is also omnipresent. As early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the tiles in the building have begun to use tiger stripes as "divine tiger town houses"; many people wear tiger hats and tiger head shoes for children to scare off demons and protect peace. The image of the tiger is reflected in the fields of folk culture, daily necessities, artworks, place names and other fields, forming a very distinctive Chinese tiger culture.

However, people do not love the fierceness, cruelty and greed of tigers, and many county records on the mainland have recorded the phenomenon of "tigers eating people", and some county records even compare tiger plagues to natural disasters. The situation of being bitten by a tiger haunts people's hearts like a nightmare, and idioms such as "like a wolf like a tiger", "talking about the discoloration of the tiger", "playing for the tiger", "raising a tiger to nibble" and so on reflect this fear and hatred of the "evil tiger". People also compare other things that bring disasters and calamities to "tigers", such as "the country of tigers and wolves", "harsh government is fiercer than tigers", and so on, and hate them incomparably. Among them, there is a category of "tigers", which are even more hated by people. They hold the power entrusted by the people, but they violate the law and discipline, abuse power for personal gain, and become corrupt and degenerate. The masses of the people will not worship such "tigers," let alone as a symbol of warding off evil spirits and ensuring peace, but will hate and not be able to get rid of them quickly.

Tigers who do evil will be beaten. There is a record of "Li Guang shooting the tiger" in the "History of Zhang Yilie", and there are more deeds about heroes fighting tigers in the "Sui and Tang Dynasties", such as the majestic sea power to catch the double tiger in the "Sui and Tang Dynasties", the fierce general Dianwei who chased the tiger across the stream in the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and the "tiger fighting hero" Wu Song in Jingyanggang in the "Water Margin". Our party unswervingly investigates and deals with the "tigers" of corruption, and it has won the heartfelt applause of the masses.

Whether it is a good wish for the tiger or support for fighting the "tiger", it reflects people's yearning for punishing evil and promoting good and achieving a better life. The masses of the people appreciate and expect the strength, bravery, and fearlessness of the tiger, and hope to carry forward the mighty style of the tiger and the tiger, the vigor of the living tiger, and the spirit of swallowing the tiger like a tiger, but at the same time they do not want all kinds of "tigers" to endanger the human world, and hope to drive away the tiger plague and realize the peace of the four sides and the clearness of the sea and the river.
Discipline inspection and supervision work is to punish evil and promote good, in order to realize the people's yearning for a better life. Since the Eighteenth National Congress of the Communist Party of China, under the strong leadership of the Party Central Committee, discipline inspection and supervision organs at all levels have cracked down on "tigers" and "flies" with a zero-tolerance attitude, promoted as a whole that they dare not be corrupt, cannot be corrupt, do not want to be corrupt, and promoted the continuous improvement of the political ecology. On the new journey, we must maintain the presence of a powerful force to oppose and punish corruption, unswervingly push the anti-corruption struggle in depth, and constantly increase the "tiger blessing" and eliminate the "tiger plague" for the masses of the people.
