"After I gained power, I thought I was freed from the constraints of discipline and law. My whole body was blown up like a balloon and began to float into the air, breaking free from the constraints of discipline and law's red line, and I floated higher and higher until I looked at myself. Destroyed and disappeared in the air." This is the confession of Zhang Biao, former deputy secretary of the Party Committee and former executive deputy director of the management committee of Delingha Industrial Park, Qaidam Circular Economy Pilot Zone in Qinghai Province.
During his tenure in Delingha, Zhang Biao did not hide his thirst for money, let himself go, and accumulated more than 40 million yuan in four and a half years.
"Once the power is in hand, make the order and make money" is Zhang Biao's life goal.
He "marked a clear price" on the power in his hands. After every time he provided help to a private business owner, he would immediately call to ask for a benefit, without concealment or scruples.
After being censored and investigated, he once described himself as follows: "My three views are distorted, and I keep saying 'don't ask for eternity, but only if you have power' and 'be rich', and the Communists have no faith at all. Live up to the training of the organization, and eventually lead to self-destruction, corruption and no return, abominable and pathetic!"
If the concept of power is deviated, it will not be able to withstand the test of power, so that it will be used for personal gain and corruption.
It can be seen from the cases of violation of discipline and law that were investigated and dealt with, Zhang Biao was far more than one person who was defeated in the face of interests and temptations because he could not keep his power, destroyed his career and family, and was imprisoned.
Some believe in looking at everything for money, inflating selfish desires, and borrowing power to make money.
Li Shengfa, former member of the party group and deputy director of the Gansu Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology, is greedy and obsessed with money. He regards "being an official and making a fortune" as his life pursuit. Faced with "hunting", he failed to resist the temptation and gradually turned into money. slaves, prisoners of desire, accepting more than 22 million yuan in bribes.
Li Wei, a former member of the party group and deputy mayor of the Urumqi Municipal Government of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, established the wrong outlook on life and values that "money is omnipotent and relationships are the first" in his youth, and took the pursuit of maximizing economic benefits as his goal of struggle.
Some regard the public power conferred by the party and the people as personal weapons, and turn the work unit into a private land for individuals, and act arbitrarily.
In order to control the project bidding rights of the group and its subsidiaries, Liu Jixiong, the former secretary of the party committee and chairman of Changsha Pilot Investment Holding Group Co., Ltd. in Hunan Province, arranged 19 relatives and friends to enter the group and its subsidiaries to hold important positions without collective research. State-owned enterprises became “family private companies”.
Some rely on the resources they are in charge of, and eat what they depend on.
He Xingxiang, the former member of the Party Committee and Vice President of China Development Bank, relied on loans to obtain large returns by lending to management and service objects, and used the convenience of his position to make profits for others in terms of loan financing, business operations, and employment.
Zhou Zhenxue, the former deputy secretary and director of the State-owned Forestry Administration of the Eastern Tianshan Mountains of Xinjiang, relied on forests to eat forests, which should have been used to protect and manage forests. Granting development projects to others... Even major projects related to forest safety, such as forest fire prevention monitoring and comprehensive management of key forest fire risks, have become tools for him to realize his power.
Some arbitrarily arrogant and arrogant, and the "top leader" has become a "top leader".
Qin Yabing, former secretary of the party group and former director of the board of directors of the Supply and Marketing Cooperative Association of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, has worked in the supply and marketing cooperative for more than ten years.
Deng Jipeng, former deputy secretary of the Party Working Committee and former director of the Management Committee of Yichun Economic and Technological Development Zone in Jiangxi Province, became more temperamental as his position was promoted, and his subordinates did not dare to speak aloud when they saw him; unless he was happy and reported to his office Work should not exceed 5 minutes, otherwise it will be "ignorant, looking for and scolding".
Overlap from the previous car, learn from the future car.

To keep the power barrier, party members and leading cadres must continuously strengthen the training of party spirit, improve party spirit cultivation, and ideologically solve the problem of who uses power and for whom profit, and establishes a correct view of power.
Recently, the Zhengzhou Municipal Committee of Henan Province held a meeting to convey a report on a typical case from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision.
"Party members and leading cadres must not have their own 'superior' thinking, they should use their positions as platforms, recognize that positions are duties, and consciously be 'people's attendants', and have more awe of the power in their opponents, and must not abuse power and use power for personal gain. ” said Lu Yun, member of the Standing Committee of the Zhengzhou Municipal Party Committee, Secretary of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection and acting director of the Supervisory Commission, in his discussion speech.
Keeping the power barrier is inseparable from strong supervision, especially the "key minority" as the key supervision object.
In order to effectively strengthen the supervision of the "top leader", the Hunan Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision issued the "Ten Must Be Strict" for Strengthening the Supervision of the "Top Leader" by the Disciplinary Inspection and Supervision Organs of the Province.
"The operation of power 'marking must be strict'" is one of the "ten must be strict", requiring discipline inspection and supervision organs to listen to the same team members and management service objects on the exercise of power by the "top leader", check democratic centralism, "three important and one big" The implementation of the system such as collective decision-making and the last position of the "top leader" shall be recorded in the clean government archives in a timely manner; the secretary of the Disciplinary Committee and the head of the discipline inspection and supervision team assigned to the region (unit) shall report to the superior (dispatched) every year on the exercise of power by the "top leader" in the region (unit). ) Disciplinary inspection and supervision organs make a special report.
Strictly educate, manage and supervise young cadres to improve their immunity against corruption and change.
In view of the characteristics of the cadre team in recent years, such as highly educated, younger, and active thinking, recently, the Chengdu Discipline Inspection Commission and Supervision Committee of Sichuan Province held a symposium for young cadres, requiring young comrades to be aware of fear, diligently cultivate themselves, and always maintain their integrity.
