Why do young cadres need to think clearly from the beginning
Recently, the family traditions of Gan Zuchang and Gong Quanzhen have sparked heated discussions among people. The precious wealth left by Gan Zuchang and Gong Quanzhen to future generations is to remember their party membership and serve the people wholeheartedly every day.
In the eyes of others, the identity of "founding major general, old Red Army" is so special! But Gan Zuchang doesn't think so. He sees himself as an ordinary party member and a servant of the people. He often said that we should bear the burden of the old Red Army and not put on the airs of the old Red Army. His daughter Gan Gongrong understood this, "Our identity is not special, but our responsibilities are special.".
Indeed, any Communist Party member is a servant of the people and serves the people. Party members and cadres, regardless of their job or official status, have no special identity as Communist Party members. The reason why Gan Zuchang was able to turn a general into a farmer is not about role transformation, but about the unchanged identity, unwavering nature, and unchanged original intention of a Communist Party member. Gan Zuchang tells us through his simple yet magnificent life that Communist Party members pursue special responsibilities rather than special identities to achieve their careers and create value.
Comrade Mao Zedong once said, "All our working cadres, regardless of their position, are the servants of the people, and everything we do is to serve the people." For party members and cadres, there are differences in official positions and treatment, but there is no difference in their identity as party members. Only by keeping in mind our primary identity, sharing the worries of the Party, dedicating ourselves to the Party, and serving the people, can we create first-class performance and win the first-class evaluation of the masses. If one forgets their first identity, frequently displays official positions such as "director" and "director", pursues "superiority" everywhere, and demands "big green lights" in everything, it is a betrayal of their original intention and a desecration of their party membership identity, and will eventually come to the opposite of the party and the people.
During the early days of the Red Army, a young soldier who had just joined the army once asked Hu Yaobang, "What are the benefits of joining the Communist Party?" After thinking for a moment, Hu Yaobang solemnly replied, "Let me see, there are ninety-nine disadvantages to joining the Communist Party. You have to endure hardship first and enjoy it later; you have to charge first and retreat later; you may be beheaded and even go to jail; dangerous work needs to be rushed to do; if there is not enough military uniform, you need to let others wear it; if there is less food and more people, you need to let the masses eat first, and you need to starve yourself... When it comes to benefits, I think there is only one. Serve the people wholeheartedly, and the people will support you. This paragraph well reflects the special requirements of our party for party members. Today, the public service advertisement video of Who Am I said well: "I am the latest one to leave, the first one to start work, the one who thinks of me least, the one who sticks to the last, the one who acts fastest, and the one who cares most about everyone... I am the CPC, always with you." This video profoundly illustrates the special responsibility of party members, that is, to shoulder heavy burdens, to charge ahead, to take on dedication, and to sacrifice oneself.
"Communist Party cadres should persist in being 'officials of the common people', treating themselves as ordinary people, and not being officials or masters. In this regard, young cadres should think clearly from the beginning and remember it for life. In fact, true Communist Party members have always emphasized responsibility and dedication without regard for personal status.". Gan Zuchang and Gong Quanzhen did the same, as did Jiao Yulu, Kong Fansen, Gu Wenchang, Yang Shanzhou, Liao Junbo, and others. However, in real life, there are still a few party members and cadres who forget their responsibilities as party members, talk about their official status, do not pursue "superiority", but pursue "superiority", full of official pride, and arbitrary use of power; Some have also lost their special responsibilities, talked about special treatment, enjoyed high standards, acted in violation of rules, acted lawlessly, and did as they pleased. This special cognition and behavior not only affect one's own image, bury a bright future, but also undermine fairness and justice, and harm the interests of the masses.
We often say, "Communist Party members are made of special materials.". This uniqueness is not due to special identity or treatment, but rather to special responsibilities, missions, responsibilities, and contributions... In short, Communist Party members must truly lead the way and work hard, always becoming servants of the people, pioneers of the times, and backbone of the nation. At present, the second batch of theme education has been fully launched. Party members and cadres should combine theme education, continuously calibrate their ideological standards, adjust their behavior, and tighten the strings of their work styles. They should always take the hearts of the people as their hearts and "sit on the side of the people with their buttocks up".
