Discharged but not faded - Precision poverty alleviation shows its true colors - Remembering Zhang Zugu, the company's poverty alleviation team member in the village

Personal Profile: Zhang Zuguang, Male, 1984 Year 2 Month of birth, Han nationality, Communist Party member, from Luoping, Yunnan, 2002 Year 12 Month to 2015 Year 7 Month served in the military, 2015 Year 11 Month transferred to the company's eighth engineering project department. Now in Xuanwei City Delu Township, Delu Village Village poverty alleviation, serving as a member of the poverty alleviation team.

2018 Year 3 In the month of, Zhang Zuguang, with the responsibility and courage of a Communist Party member and a veteran, volunteered to join the group's village poverty alleviation team and embarked on the road to poverty alleviation. Facing the important task of poverty alleviation entrusted by the organization, knowing the great responsibility, he, with the determination and enthusiasm of "never returning until Loulan is broken," wholeheartedly devoted himself to the front line of precise poverty alleviation and poverty eradication.

Stay and immerse oneself

Upon arriving in Delu Village, Delu Township, Xuanwei City, the first problem in the work quickly emerged: many files and forms in poverty alleviation work needed to be uploaded in electronic form to the township poverty alleviation office work group. However, the village committee staff had not received computer training, and filling out forms on the computer became a headache for them. Zhang Zuguang, with his proficient computer skills, took the initiative to undertake all kinds of business in the village, while also not neglecting the impoverished households he was responsible for. The types of village business are diverse, and sometimes the workload is large, but he never complained, cooperating with the deputy director to do the village's work well. He often told the villagers, "I'm new here, and I'm not familiar with many things in the village. Doing business can help me quickly understand and familiarize myself with the village situation." , I'm young now, so I can do more work, which is also a kind of exercise and improvement for myself. , This little hardship and tiredness is nothing."

In the initial stages of the village residency, the understanding of the village by the village team members was limited to introductions from others and reading materials, which greatly hindered the progress of the work. Zhang Zuguang knew that being familiar with policies was paramount in poverty alleviation work. He used poverty alleviation work meetings and the two books, "Should Know and Should Be Able to Do Handbook" and "Poverty Alleviation Team," issued by the township, and whenever he had time, he studied the policies. Once he was familiar with the policies, the work quickly opened up. Whenever the village cadres and village group cadres encountered policies they didn't understand, they would ask him. They felt that this young man was down-to-earth, capable, and studious. Whenever the village needed help with business, he would help complete it immediately, and almost never made mistakes. During the "State Grid" opening, he not only carefully entered the information of the impoverished households he was responsible for, but also helped the village and group cadres with the entry. The amount of entry was very large, and in order to reduce errors, he would check three or four times each time, and he would open the information of each household to check with the responsible cadres, and only after confirming that there were no errors would he submit it. There are many similar things, and he did them all seriously without complaint. In the interview, we also noticed that Zhang Zuguang's residence has many professional books. He told us: After the poverty alleviation task is completed, I will have to return to my own work post. Now I use my spare time at night to study my profession and accumulate knowledge for my future return to work. 。

Visiting households is a daily part of Zhang Zuguang's work. Through extensive visits and in-depth investigations, he has ascertained the family population, basic crop planting situation, and main causes of poverty of all impoverished households in the village. Whenever he mentions Delu Village, Zhang Zuguang can talk endlessly, recounting the big and small things in the village like an expert. We were curious why he knew so much, so we wanted to see what was in his daily-carried "Village Work Diary." Opening his "Village Work Diary," it was filled with dense notes: whose child went to which school, whether tuition fees were reduced, whether the scholarship had arrived; whose elderly person was sick, what medicine they were taking, how much was reimbursed; Li Dad's family was impoverished due to illness; Pu Auntie's house had a leaky roof that needed repair. These records of "small things" filled us with sincere admiration. It records not only the thoughts, needs, hopes, and worries of the impoverished masses, but also Zhang Zuguang's every bit of poverty alleviation work, his diligence and dedication, and his sense of responsibility and commitment are self-evident.

Zhang Zuguang said: Every time I go to the village and visit households, I will take notes carefully to record the current situation and difficulties encountered by the impoverished households. Sometimes I will also meet some people who come to report difficulties, and they are more willing to come to the village work team to talk about it. After returning to the village, I summarize the problems they have reported and submit them to the village work team leader for discussion at the village committee meeting. After the discussion proposes a solution, it is promptly informed to the villagers, and the villagers also feel this affection. Whenever the village work team passes by the villagers' homes, they invite us in to sit.

When asked about his feelings about village poverty alleviation, he said: Looking back on the more than two years of village residency, my feeling is that the responsibility is even greater. I grew up in the countryside, and now I'm back in the countryside working on the front line of poverty alleviation. I've made up my mind to do this work well and fully utilize the good work style I learned in the army in poverty alleviation work. Moreover, as a Party member, I must play the exemplary role of a Party member.

Finding a way out, promoting development

Previously, transportation was very inconvenient between Delu Village and other natural villages, and the roads were mostly pitted and dilapidated dirt roads. "To get rich, first build roads" has become an important slogan for transportation poverty alleviation. In order to make up for the shortcomings in transportation and meet the needs of the masses' travel, Zhang Zuguang and other poverty alleviation team members took road construction as the top priority of village assistance. After several discussions with the village committee, with the support of the group and the local government, currently, the roads from Delu Village Committee to 9 natural villages have all been paved , now it has become a convenient road for people's travel and increased income, a road that embodies the hope and confidence of Delu Village in achieving poverty alleviation.

With the road problem solved, how to help villagers achieve stable income increase is the most difficult problem for Zhang Zuguang and his team members. After careful consideration, they believe that employment poverty alleviation is the most direct and effective way to win the battle against poverty. They immediately started working, closely tracking the situation of those who have gone out to work, actively collecting recruitment information from employment enterprises, and encouraging impoverished people with the conditions to go out to work. At the same time, they established cooperatives 1 to form a "Party branch + cooperative + farmers + The company uses a variety of models, including order agriculture, shareholding cooperation, and land transfer. While the idea is good, many farmers are resistant, believing that transferring land will leave them with no land to cultivate, making it difficult to start work. After understanding the concerns of the villagers, Zhang Zugu and his colleagues immediately took action, visiting households. When encountering difficult villagers, Zhang Zugu and his colleagues would patiently explain the policies, advantages, and development prospects, hoping to change the villagers' minds and achieve common prosperity. After several weeks of persistent efforts, they finally dispelled the farmers' concerns about having no land to cultivate after the land transfer. Finally, they built a 500 multi-mu soft-seed pomegranate planting base '400' multi-mu chili planting base , The results of poverty alleviation are significant.

Improving the living environment is also a key aspect of poverty alleviation. During the demolition and renovation of rural dilapidated houses, some farmers did not fully understand the policies. They believed that the land would also be reclaimed after the demolition of old houses, so they remained unmoved during the demolition. Some farmers went to the village to seek clarification. Zhang Zugu and other poverty alleviation team members warmly received the farmers, inquired about the specific situation, and patiently explained the policies and answered their questions. Zhang Zugu said: "Seeing the farmers leave happily and satisfied, I also feel happy."

Sacrifice personal interests for the mission

"The more soil you touch with your feet, the more genuine feelings you will have in your heart." To do a good job in poverty alleviation, Zhang Zugu is always available, regardless of personal difficulties. From his wife's pregnancy to the birth of his child, he strictly abided by the "eight prohibitions and eight musts" of the village work team, rarely taking leave. Zhang Zugu said: "All the family matters can only be handled by my wife. In the past two years, I have spent less time with her, and I feel quite guilty towards her. However, in the days of working side-by-side with the masses to overcome poverty, I have witnessed the transformation of this village. Using my hands to help them get rid of poverty and embark on the road to a well-off life is a very meaningful thing."

Increasing the income of the masses is no small matter; every detail matters. Over the past two years, numerous beneficial projects reflect Zhang Zugu's persistent pursuit and dedication to poverty alleviation work . Today, the early poverty alleviation projects are bearing fruit. Delu Township has entered the crucial final stage of poverty alleviation this year, and Zhang Zugu will continue to work hard in the final days of the battle against poverty, guarding the front line and continuing to work wholeheartedly on the work of poverty alleviation, ensuring that all people can achieve poverty alleviation and become wealthy as scheduled.
