His hands were flying, his face was smiling, but his eyes were blank. This is a fictitious showmanship. ”
Recently, after Ji Yunhao, deputy secretary of the Party Committee of Jianhua Town, Kailu County, Inner Mongolia, caused controversy over forcing farmers to pay fees, an old photo of him "working hard" sparked heated discussions among netizens. In the photo, he is typing on a black-screen monitor, in stark contrast to his real working condition and pretending. This has once again sparked reflection on the showmanship of grassroots officials.
Black screen
The incident dates back to earlier this month. When farmers in Shuangsheng Village, Jianhua Town, Kailu County, were working in the fields, they were besieged by a group of village cadres led by Ji Yunhao, who forced them to pay various fees, with an arrogant attitude, which led to conflicts. After the video was exposed, public opinion was in an uproar.
However, in the midst of online justice condemnation, a report portrayed the grassroots official as a reborn struggler. From dropping out of high school to join the army, to rising step by step after leaving the army, from the police to the deputy mayor, and then to the current deputy secretary of the party committee, on the surface, it seems that he is a late bloomer, but in fact he is getting ahead.
This is in stark contrast to his arrogant and domineering style in the video. It turns out that the real him only exists off-camera. For the sake of political achievements, Ji Yunhao chose to treat farmers as a thorn in his side. It can be seen that climbing the officialdom is not the same as serving the people.
At the same time, there is also a work photo suspected of being taken for a show that is circulating on the Internet. In the photo, he is moving his hands quickly on the keyboard, smiling, and working very deeply. But the monitor on the right is clearly turned off, and this scene can't help but make people laugh dumbly.
The universality of the existence of formalism is also evident from this case. Compared with the real achievements, taking pictures for a show can win the appreciation of leaders; Compared with being pragmatic and honest, socializing is more conducive to job promotion. In the face of these invisible rules, it is difficult for newcomers to officialdom to gain a foothold if they do not surrender.
We can't help but ask: Is this just an isolated case, or is it a reflection of a structural problem? More essentially, what distorts the rules of officialdom and the value orientation of selecting and appointing people? Behind the steady progress, how many scars are hidden that violate the original intention?
At present, the anti-corruption efforts are unprecedented, and the new era also proposes "four forms" of prevention and control. However, the stubborn disease of formalism is still difficult to eradicate. It has been integrated into the blood and bones and has become a law of survival. If we fail to solve the bias of selecting and employing people at the source, rely solely on treating the symptoms rather than the root causes, and use both incentives and punishments, I am afraid it will be difficult to get rid of the malpractice of bureaucracy.
What we need is to return to fairness and fairness, and re-examine the process of selecting and employing people. Only by allowing officials who truly serve the people to stand out can the masses of the people have a stronger sense of gain. If we can persistently adhere to the right path and let the moral bottom line become the benchmark for selecting and appointing people, we may still have time to reverse the trend and rebuild the credibility of the government.
Ji Yunhao is just a grassroots official, but he has become a microcosm of our examination of the stubborn diseases of the system. To rectify formalism, it is necessary to vigorously promote it from top to bottom, to exercise self-discipline in government action, and to actively supervise the broad masses of the people. Only when we work together to uphold integrity and innovation, and eliminate evil winds, will this land become a clean and upright place.
