Zhou Enlai's honesty and self-discipline
The stars are moving and time is flying. Dear Comrade Zhou Enlai has been away from us for 20 years. Twenty years ago, millions of people in the capital stood in Shili Long Street, braving the snowstorm and crying to see Zhou Enlai's hearse off, which is still vivid. With the passage of time, people's nostalgia and admiration for Zhou Enlai did not fade, but increased day by day.
So, why does Zhou Enlai have such great charm to win the people's love? This is because, on the one hand, he has made indelible contributions to the Party and the people in the great historical process of creating and building a new China; On the other hand, he was strict with himself all his life, honest and honest, and only sought dedication. He dedicated everything to the party and the people, and even scattered his ashes on the land of China, completely and thoroughly realizing his great ambition of "serving the people before death". It is the organic combination of these two aspects that constitutes Zhou Enlai's unique pure personality charm, thus winning the heartfelt love and admiration of the people, and even some of his political opponents at home and abroad have to be impressed.
Zhou Enlai's honesty and self-discipline are diverse and consistent. Here are only some aspects related to the current requirements of honesty and self-discipline of leading cadres. In this way, it is inevitable to miss, but we can see the spirit from the nuances.
(A) Treat personal life
Dress-In people's impression, Zhou Enlai is always well-dressed and personable. As everyone knows, most of his clothes made of materials have been worn for decades, and some of them are still damaged. After careful darning, they continued to wear them. On one occasion, he received foreign guests in darned clothes, and the staff around him said that this "dress" should have been changed long ago. He smiled and said, "You can still receive foreign guests in patched clothes." "It doesn't matter if the darning piece has a little trace, it doesn't matter if others see it. It's ugly to lose the tradition of hard struggle! " His shirt is worn out, so he still wears a new neckline and cuffs. 1963, he visited four countries in Asia, Africa and Europe 14. When he arrived in Cairo, he changed into a shirt that had been mended many times. The entourage couldn't take it to a foreign hotel for washing, so they had to ask my comrade in the Egyptian embassy for help and tell him not to use force when washing, so as not to rub it. The ambassador's wife was moved to tears when she saw it. As for his shabby pajamas, leather sandals and the first generation of Shanghai brand domestic watches, they have been kept as precious cultural relics in the Chinese History Museum.
Diet-Zhou Enlai's home cooking is very simple. The staple food is often coarse grains, and the non-staple food is generally one meat, one vegetable and one soup. His working meal standard is home-cooked meal, four dishes and one soup. He said: "Four dishes and one soup are both economical and affordable." He inspects or presides over meetings in other places, eats the same meal as everyone else, does nothing special, and must pay off the money and food stamps when he leaves. Not only did he do it himself, but he also asked other leading cadres to do the same. Once, when he was on a business trip in Shanghai, he heard that some leading comrades took their wives and children to places, and all the accommodation and food expenses were paid by the places. He was very angry. After returning to Beijing, he proposed to the representatives of various provinces and cities at the third national reception work conference: "In the future, no matter which leader goes to the province, all expenses such as food, accommodation and transportation will not be borne by the local area, and the guests will pay for themselves. This should form a system. " The memory of a special plane captain vividly reflects his self-discipline requirements in diet. Once, the captain watched him eat and dropped a grain of rice on the table. He held it twice, then put it in his mouth and ate it with a smile. Seeing this scene, the captain later said with emotion: "I can't help but have mixed feelings in my heart. What is honesty? Just look at the Prime Minister. "
Housing-In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, Zhou Enlai moved into the West Flower Hall in Zhongnanhai, where he lived for 26 years until his death. Xihuating is an old-fashioned bungalow built in Qianlong period of Qing Dynasty, which is damp and cold. The staff around him were not at ease and repeatedly proposed maintenance, but he resolutely disagreed. 1at the end of 959, he and Deng went on a long-term business trip to carry out protective maintenance on the West Flower Hall. As soon as he entered Beijing, he was surprised and asked, "What's the matter? Who told you to fix it? ! "He also said:" As the Prime Minister, I made a good start and had a great influence; It has damaged the head and affected a large area. Therefore, I must be strict with myself. " According to his request, the newly added carpets, sofas, curtains, chandeliers and other furnishings have been removed. Afterwards, he took the initiative to review this "transformation storm" three times at the the State Council meeting and said to the deputy prime ministers and ministers present: "You must not repeat my mistakes."
Cars-Zhou Enlai doesn't have any special requirements for the cars he drives. Later, the special car he often took was the red flag car. He said: "I like domestic cars if others don't sit with me." After the country imported a batch of advanced Mercedes-Benz cars, the relevant departments wanted to change them for him. He disagreed and said seriously, "whoever likes to take that Mercedes-Benz, I don't like it. I will take the red flag." On the issue of car use, he is clear about public and private, and he is unambiguous. He went to get a haircut, go to the hospital, visit relatives and friends, go to the theater and so on. , are private cars. He always tells the staff around him to pay according to the regulations and deduct it from his salary.
Zhou Enlai's basic elements of life and frugal style of basic necessities of life have been praised by people who have worked with him for a long time. A secretary said: "The Prime Minister wants nothing but work in his life. In particular, the simplicity of life is well known. " It's hard to imagine to what extent without seeing it with your own eyes.
Some celebrities who have more contact with Zhou Enlai also praised his honest and thrifty lifestyle. Soong Ching Ling said: "Premier Zhou is a real capitalist in his personal life and style, just like he is in politics."
A gentleman loves money, takes it wisely and uses it properly.
