Recently, the old cadre party branch of the Rong Media Center of Linshu County was praised by the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee in the construction of the party organization of retired cadres in the "True Color Homeland", and among the 13 commended units in Linyi City, the party branch became the only party organization in the county to receive this honor. At the same time, it was rated as a municipal "five-star" retired cadre party organization. Behind these eye-catching achievements, there is the hard work of Wang Xiaogen, secretary of the party branch.
Retirement does not fade, and leave the party. The 76-year-old Wang Xiaogen has always adhered to the work belief of "one pen, one piece of love, pro-party and love for the party and propaganda party", and since 2018, he has led the members of the lao cadre party branch to take the lead in launching the "Poetry and Painting Homeland" characteristic party building work method that integrates "poetry, song, painting and literature" in the city.
"This work method can be summarized as 'a poem, a painting, a song, a long scroll of praise for great men.'" Wang Xiaogen explained that the original intention of formulating this method was to give full play to his own strengths, by writing the party years into "poetry" and depicting the footprints of great people into "pictures", using poetry to warm people's hearts and inspire future generations.
Over the years, Wang Xiaogen has led the veteran party members to unremittingly create works, and has now published works such as "Dongfang Hong", "Ode to the Red Flag", and "Comic Book Collection", including lyrics, poems, cartoons and other different art forms, a total of 600 praises to the party, 300 paintings of praise for the country, depicting the brilliant picture of the history of the party in the past century, and expressing the sincere feelings of the old party members who love the motherland, praise the Communist Party, and praise the new era.
Because of his poems and paintings, Wang Xiaogen is affectionately known as the "Old Branch Book of Poetry and Painting". "Retired, so old, leading these people, creating these works, it really has nothing to say, this is the standard Communist Party member." Speaking of Wang Xiaogen's pioneering deeds, Zhong Jingcui, a party member of the Laogan Party Branch, couldn't help but give a thumbs up.
"Twist a thousand whiskers in one word, forget to eat and deliberate." In order to complete these works, Wang Xiaogen spent a lot of time and effort. He set off from Zaozhuang and retook the Road of the Red Army's Long March, he went into bookstores, history museums, searched for materials, read party history, explored the national conditions, and enlightened his mind... The hardships of creation need not be repeated, but Xiao Wanggen never tires of this, he said, he is the love of the party and the country to support himself to do this.
And this feeling of loving the party and the country is the family style passed down from wang xiaogen's family. Three generations of the Wang family's grandchildren are all party members. Wang Xiaogen joined the Communist Party of China under the influence of his father, a party member, and was rated as an outstanding communist party member at the municipal level. His wife is the recipient of the medal "Fifty Years of Glory in the Party", his daughter-in-law is a provincial model worker and an outstanding Communist Party member, and his son is a procurator and model Communist Party member who has received special training at the provincial level.
"Pro-party love for the party is not temporary, but a lifetime. Pro-party and loving party are not from one generation, but from generation to generation. In the interview, Wang Xiaogen said emotionally that he would continue to pass on his loyalty and love for the party and pass on the red gene from generation to generation. (Wang Fang)
