Yu Zuomin, this name used to be thunderous in Daegu Village. From an ordinary party branch secretary to the later "soil emperor", his story has almost become a legend. In 1974, the young and promising Yu Zuomin was elected as the secretary of the village party branch, and with extraordinary courage and courage, it took only a few years to make the economic development of Daegu Village grow by leaps and bounds. With the growth of power and the rise of status, Yu Zuomin's personal life and style have also undergone tremendous changes.
Back in 1974, when Woo Chok-min took charge of Daegu Village, he showed extraordinary leadership and forward-looking vision. In just a few years, he led the villagers to build hundreds of courtyards and thousands of red brick houses, and the village took on a new look. The villagers are also full of praise for him, and they feel that Yu Zuomin is a great benefactor in the village and a leader who leads everyone to get rich.
Things don't always go smoothly. With the improvement of his status, Yu Zuomin's lifestyle and way of handling affairs also began to change. He used to live in an ordinary adobe house, but after 1984, he moved into a luxury villa with an area of 780 square meters. Not only is this villa luxuriously furnished, but it is also surrounded by tall walls, guarded by fierce wolfdogs and full-time security guards, and the security measures are comparable to those of a fortress.
Not only that, Yu Zuomin's taste of life has also undergone earth-shaking changes. He changed from the original dry tobacco pouch to high-end Chinese tobacco, and the table was no longer ordinary rice noodles, but precious ingredients such as river crabs and bird's nest. His clothes have changed from ordinary peasant clothes to high-end suits, and the unit price of his belt is as high as more than 10,000 yuan, which is a complete rich image.
Yu Zuomin's changes don't stop there, and his display of power is becoming more and more obvious. He set up a private security team known as the "108 Generals", and whenever he went out, four Mercedes-Benz cars followed closely, full of posture. He also installed a closed-circuit television system to monitor the entire village, giving orders through radio at all times, and exercising his power with little check.
However, Yu Zuomin's behavior and changes have attracted the attention and discussion of many people. His life and style gradually distanced himself from ordinary villagers. The former benefactor and leader is now more like an arbitrary "soil emperor". His external image is also gradually changing, and he has begun to appear frequently, and various reports and rumors have followed.
Behind this change, we can't help but ask, is this change a personal metamorphosis or a corrosive power? Yu Zuomin's story seems to confirm the old saying once again: "With great power comes great responsibility." In the face of power, responsibility seems to be forgotten by some. Yu Zuomin's example also shows us that when a person has too much power and lacks sufficient supervision and constraints, he or she can gradually lose himself.
Yu Zuomin's luxurious life and display of power are not only a change in personal taste, but also a symbol of power. He has demonstrated his power and status in a variety of ways, whether it is a luxurious lifestyle or strong security measures, all of which show the amount of power he has. This display of power not only externally, but also deeply affected his relationship with the villagers. Once a secretary close to the people, now he has become a leader from above.
Yu's story also reflects a more general societal problem: how power is used and monitored. In many cases, power can easily go to extremes if it is not properly checked and monitored. People often change gradually after gaining power, from the initial service to the people to the later self-aggrandizement, Yu Zuomin's examples are not lacking in the world.
The social repercussions and evaluation of Yu Zuomin have also changed over time. From initial praise and gratitude, to later criticism and questioning, all these changes are closely related to his use of power and personal behavior. The public's perception of him gradually changed from a leader who could lead the villagers to prosperity, to an authoritarian and detached "soil emperor" from the masses.
Through the story of Yu Zuomin, we can deeply understand that power must be accompanied by responsibility, and it requires appropriate restraint and supervision. A person's change may be just an individual case, but the social phenomena and problems reflected behind it are worthy of deep consideration by all of us.
