What the people are thinking and looking forward to, the procuratorate should do what they should do. In Zhanjiang City, Guangdong Province, the procuratorate actively practices the value pursuit of people first, takes party building as the guide, and helps to drive the poor villages to transform into demonstration villages -
Western Guangdong Poverty Alleviation:
A procuratorate's deep cultivation and meticulous work
In the morning, birds were singing everywhere, and the old man Yang Xiufen went to the fields to work as usual. Her family had three acres of land. "Life has gotten better, I'm used to it!" The 86-year-old woman is in a tough state and still maintains this way of life.

html In Pingshangang Village in May, the sun is scorching like fire, and fruits and vegetables such as lychees, pineapples, winter melons, beans are full. "You try it first, and the taste will be sweeter in a few days." The villager's team leader Chen Zhaoda happily picked a few lychees from the branches and handed them to the reporter. "In one month, the yellow skin will mature. We mobilize villagers to vigorously develop the breeding industry, which is our poverty alleviation result." Zhang Helin, Secretary of the Party Leadership Group and Procurator General of Zhanjiang City Procuratorate of Guangdong Province, said, with a proud look on his face. On the stone standing next to it, the big red words "Zhanjiang Branch of the Industrial and Commercial Bank of Zhanjiang Branch of Zhanjiang People's Procuratorate" are particularly eye-catching under the blue sky.
Nostalgia
Great changes in mountain villages in poor villages
Stepping into Pingshangang Village, three or four-story buildings come into view from time to time. The only traces of the old village are two loess houses, but they have been built into "Nostalgia Memorial Hall", which contains old objects such as straw raincoats and rice buckets. "The houses and farm tools are collected from the villagers. We want to use another way to leave some memories for people." Yi Huafu, deputy procurator of the court, introduced.
"Since the revitalization of the countryside, our village has undergone great changes. All dilapidated houses have been demolished and all roads have been rebuilt. The appearance and style of the village brought about have been earth-shaking changes." Villager Chen Huasheng said in front of the camera.
Old man Yang Xiufen, who has been a party member for 53 years, "I married into the village at the age of 18. Life was sad at that time, and I could only eat sweet potatoes when I gave birth to a child." Relying on Yi Huafu's "translation", the reporter understood the grandma's local dialect. When she learned that we were going to listen to the stories of villagers getting rich, she happily gestured while saying, "There are so many fish and meat now, which can be eaten every day. In the past, the village was very dirty and messy, and it became neat and shiny in the past three or two years."
seemed to hope that the reporter could understand it, and the grandma raised her tone, "The people from the procuratorate are good, and they often come to help us. At first, it was a movement, but when they saw that the actual problems were solved, the villagers felt very happy. They all said that the party's policies were good." The village cadres next to them also helped "translate" one by one.
"When the three cleansings and three demolitions were made, some villagers disagreed and demolished the pig houses and cows, saying that they had been demolished. Where should the pigs and cows be put? The grandma herself did her husband's ideological work first and first demolished the pig houses at home. She led the villagers in this way, and then the work would be easier to carry out later." Yi Huafu added.
Pingshangang Village is located in Gaoqiao Town, Lianjiang City. It is a red old district at the junction of Guangdong and Guangxi provinces and regions. Its jurisdiction area is about 9.5 square kilometers and has 5 natural villages under its jurisdiction. Since May 2016, the Zhanjiang Municipal Procuratorate and the Zhanjiang Branch of the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China have begun to provide counterpart assistance to Pingshangang Village in poverty alleviation.
At that time, there was only one dirt road in the village. It was covered with wind, dust and mud, and vehicles could not drive in many places. "The house was dilapidated, and garbage was piled up everywhere, and the environment was very dirty." Zhang Helin told his initial impression of Pingshangang Village.
Without a path, there is no development. Low-key and pragmatic, and brave to explore, Zhang Helin led the entire court to realize the value pursuit of "what the people think and hope for, the procuratorate should do whatever they want." The reporter first met him because of a judicial aid case in 2017. Zhang Helin, who was the director of the Criminal Appeals Department of the Guangdong Provincial Procuratorate at the time, led the team to extend their tentacles to achieve diversified assistance and helped a single-lost couple rekindle hope for life.That year, the provincial procuratorates handled 467 judicial assistance cases, 757 people, and the amount of relief funds was first in the country. "Life must continue" is what he often says to his victims. In Zhanjiang, he went to Pingshangang Village for the first time to conduct research. "We must let the villagers live a good life," he told himself.

After that, the prosecutor of Zhanjiang Municipal Court became a "frequently visited" in this mountain village, investigating, visiting, implementing, looking for funds, planting, and building roads. "At first, I thought it was just a while, and they would go back in a few days." Many villagers talked behind the scenes. However, in the fields, sunrise and sunset, they did not go back and became part of the villagers. Gradually, more and more villagers joined the village construction. Driven by Grandma Yang and other 7 party members, 70 volunteers formed a service team and formed a long-term cleaning mechanism in the village.
Sincerity touches the villagers and others. Chen Zhaorong, who graduated from Peking University, has his own company in Shenzhen. He resolutely returned to his hometown to become the "chief planner", and included every grass, tree, room and tile in the first and second phases of "Pingshangang Beautiful New Rural Construction Plan" of more than 560 pages, and advanced funds to build it himself; later, the local geniuses Chen Dechun, Liao Deming, and Chen Zhaoda also returned to join the team... Life changed little by little, which was real. "The village has become beautiful and life has become better," the villagers' doubts have been dispelled. "I am moved by his efforts, and he is moved by my persistence." Zhang Helin, Chen Zhaorong and others recognized each other, so they made the story that followed.
Since the start of targeted poverty alleviation work in the new era in 2016, with the joint assistance of Zhanjiang City Procuratorate, Industrial and Commercial Bank of China Zhanjiang Branch and other departments, Pingshangang Village has gradually developed from a provincially designated poverty-stricken village to a demonstration village for party building in Lianjiang City, a demonstration village for living environment improvement in Zhanjiang City, a demonstration village for credit rating of poor households, an advanced civilized village in Zhanjiang City in 2019, and a demonstration village for new rural construction... In December 2020, the village was rated as a "famous village for poverty-stricken village creation in Guangdong". On December 20, Luo Juan, deputy director of the Standing Committee of the Guangdong Provincial People's Congress, came to investigate, "Your full commitment to poverty alleviation work deeply touched me," Luo Juan exclaimed to Zhang and Lin.

Beautiful mountains and rivers, and the fragrance of fruits and vegetables, here has become the "most beautiful appearance" in the eyes of villagers. So, tourists came, field collectors came, and NPC deputies came. The landscape stone presented by Zhou Xiaoping, a representative of the Guangdong Provincial People's Congress and chairman and general manager of Guangdong Tongde Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., is in the village. The four big words "Safe and Peace of the People" express the deepest blessings and yearning.
Leading
The "procuratorial blue" in our village
In January 2019, Zhang Helin was transferred to Zhanjiang City Procuratorate as the procurator general. At that time, he set two goals for himself: First, procuratorial work entered the first echelon of the province; Second, he blazed a new path for Zhanjiang to win the battle against poverty and rural revitalization.
In his goal blueprint, party building must be the first step. With this step and the mission of serving the people, we can have high fighting spirit and lead the team without fear of wind and rain. Therefore, in the two battlefields of procuratorial business and poverty alleviation, he became the leader, leading the battle with party building and leading the collective maturity and growth. The procuratorial business of the court is moving towards the first echelon of the province, and public interest litigation, minor prosecution, crackdown on gangsters and evil, accusation and appeal prosecution and other works have stood firm at the forefront of the province. The precise assistance cause of Pingshangang Village has also gone from the beginning that the villagers do not understand and support it to more and more people actively participating...
initial stage of work, with many obstacles. The backward ideas and single economic structure of villagers have become the biggest barriers to the development of Pingshangang. But in Zhang Helin's view, "in order to create wonderful music, discord is necessary."After receiving this answer, he led the team members to do three things: First, the leader takes the lead and goes deep into the countryside to provide precise guidance; Second, with the help of the "external brain", experts are invited to take the pulse and provide advice for Pingshangang; Third, the backbone implements the implementation and sends two cadres to station for a long time.
At that time, except for going out for meetings, Zhang Helin was either in the courtyard or in Pingshangang Village. "Last year, Prosecutor Zhang came more than 50 times." Zhang Yuan, deputy director of the hospital's office, told reporters, "It's almost once or twice a week. Sometimes, in order to do ideological work for villagers, he will live."
to help poverty alleviation, and to help others. The village appearance must be well built, and the grassroots village party organizations must be even better. In order to give poverty alleviation a more hardcore confidence, Zhanjiang Municipal Court proposed the concept of "Party Building Poverty Alleviation". By strengthening the construction of village party building positions, carrying out poverty alleviation work with party building, comprehensively consolidating the work foundation of grassroots party organizations, effectively promoting the standardization and institutionalization of village "two committees" work, improving the ability of village teams and party members and the masses to get rid of poverty and become rich, realizing the grid management and service of party members, and greatly enhancing the combat effectiveness of natural village branches.
Zhang Helin measured every inch of land here with his steps, and the prosecutor of Zhanjiang City Procuratorate also became a special "relative and friend" of Pingshangang villagers. The court helped the village establish a "1+1" job recognition service mechanism for the party and the masses, that is, one party member paired up with one villager group or villager's council member to encourage the masses to participate in the improvement of the living environment; the party members of the court spontaneously donated to plant "pioneer forests" and did a good job in agricultural technology, e-commerce economy, care for the five elders, and civil dispute mediation... Every weekend, Pingshangang Village welcomed the police officers of the Zhanjiang Municipal Procuratorate who carried out the theme party day activities of "Gathering procuratorial forces and helping poverty alleviation" to "get together" with them in different ways such as assisting planting and promoting legal education.

"Students, if your good friend is bullied and he asks you to help fight and retaliate against the other party, then do you want to go?" "We can't go! Because fighting is wrong..." On this day, the party members of the Party Branch of the Sixth and Seventh Procuratorial Departments of the Court were providing legal education to the children of the village primary school. The young lady from "Blue Bauhinia Studio" teaches self-protection knowledge, and the children answered positively during the interactive session. Every weekend or special time node, one of the 15 branches of the hospital will come to the village based on the characteristics of the job and the actual situation of the village...
Cao Jukui, deputy director of the political department of the hospital and third-level researcher, has almost never left Pingshangang Village since he became the first secretary in the village. "Please be careful, after all, you are a decades old, don't follow us to the ground." The villagers advised him, "I was a soldier and I'm in good health." Old Cao always smiled honestly, "This is like the village where I lived when I was a child."
reporters found that many villagers had Zhang Helin's WeChat ID in their mobile phones, and they would call the prosecutor directly when they encountered difficulties. In the WeChat group of "Pingshangang New Rural Construction", all the villagers are there. "In the past, when the village was built, most villagers stood by and watched, but now they were rich and worked hard. When there was an event, just say it in the group." Xie Qirang, chairman of the Gaoqiao Town People's Congress, sighed, "At that time, someone blocked the road construction and was very excited. Xiao Shuzhen, an activist of the party, went to persuade him, and he was bitten. In 2019, 15 rural youths here applied for joining the party, and she finally got what she wanted."
"The villagers didn't understand at that time, so I went to persuade him and got bitten three bites, and one of them was bitten and bleeding." Speaking of this, Xiao Shuzhen looked at her arm and felt a little embarrassed. "Now everyone knows that the procuratorate is doing things for us and they are very active in cooperation." "She is the wife of Chen Zhaoda, the leader of the villager," Xie Qirang smiled.
changes, and it happens little by little here.
Sow
Beautiful scroll continues to unfold
"Poverty lifting is the prerequisite, revitalization is development." Zhang Helin's clear thinking.He raised 6 million yuan from multiple sources to carry out a series of assistance work, led the new leadership team, and thoroughly implemented targeted poverty alleviation -
Helped 22 poor households with working capacity to go out to work; helped disabled poor households develop e-commerce; completed educational poverty alleviation and renovation of dilapidated houses for poor households; purchased pension insurance and medical insurance for all poor households; completed photovoltaic power generation construction projects; successfully built more than 300 acres of high-standard planting bases and 66 acres of Datang Reservoir breeding bases; developed characteristic tourism around Taohuaxi, Gaoqiao River, and Datang Reservoirs; established a democratic and legal education base... In China's poverty alleviation map, Pingshangang Village finally made a lot of money.
"The Party Central Committee decided that after the poverty alleviation goals and tasks are completed, a five-year transition period will be established for counties that have been lifted out of poverty from the date of poverty alleviation. During the transition period, the main assistance policies must be maintained overall stability." Zhang Helin said that the construction of beautiful villages in Pingshangang Village is all based on its natural and cultural conditions. Based on the unique resource endowment of the village, maintain the green waters and green mountains here, deepen the construction of beautiful villages, actively introduce advanced concepts and high-quality industries, vigorously develop rural tourism, and attract visitors from all directions, is an important principle for the village to implement the rural revitalization strategy.
industry is the greatest support for the construction of beautiful villages. In order to effectively increase villagers' income, the courtyard guides villagers to establish Pingshangang Pingjian Breeding and Breeding Cooperative Hepingle Breeding Professional Cooperative in accordance with the form of "base + farmer", mobilize villagers to raise local chickens and pond fish, revitalize more than 300 acres of collective land to grow local specialty vegetables, and develop 66 acres of Datang Reservoir to invest in fish fry for breeding. When the reporter arrived, the green winter melon, the lovely mulberries, and the newly sprouted dragon fruit were already hanging on the branches.
is planted in time and grows at full time. "Prosecutor's Blue" not only sows the seeds of getting rich, but also sows hope. "Pingshangang not only has beautiful villages, but also the sweetest and best Hongjiang Orange. We are building a red revolutionary education base. In the future, this place will be developed into a red orange town with the theme of red base and Hongjiang Orange, and realize rural revitalization in all aspects." When talking about the future development and planning of Pingshangang Village, Zhang Helin is familiar with the path.
At the former site of the Sandi Temple guerrilla base of the municipal cultural relics protection unit Rongmupu Sandi Temple, Liao Deming is leading the construction with his workers to clean up the surrounding environment and pave the roads. This was once the Jinhuaying Transportation Station Office of the Qingping District Team of the Guangdong-Guangxi Border Region Column. It has rich historical content resources to show. After 13 years of municipal cultural relics being listed, it finally became a red revolutionary education base. "In the past, it was a bit wasteful. Last year, we coordinated the Agricultural Reclamation Bureau and other units to make this place a red base. Combined with the opportunity of celebrating the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Party and carrying out party history education this year, municipal units can come here to carry out party building activities!" Zhang Helin happily pointed to the lake in front of him, and several egrets were flying. "Citizens can also relax and fish here. There are 1,000 acres of red river orange forest next to it. The fruits can still be picked when they are ripe in autumn. We previously invited experts from the Academy of Social Sciences to combine the terrain here. The landform resources have determined the development ideas for developing rural leisure and characteristic tourism around the 'one stream, one river and one lake'. Now, we are working hard to build an integrated tourism pattern of tourism, shopping, entertainment, picking, eating, accommodation and transportation. "
html Since March, Pingshangang Village has become a tourist route for Zhanjiang China Travel. Buses are constantly sending tourists to visit every week. Villagers take out local specialty agricultural products such as chicken, sweet potatoes, and eggs in advance to sell. Many people leave phone calls to request reservations after purchasing. Every time this comes, the village is extremely lively.
Development blueprint is becoming a beautiful reality step by step, and this is their glory. Walking in the village, a series of special attractions such as the Homesickness Museum, the lotus pond, the moonlight in the water, the source of water, the Taohua Creek, Qinglong Lake, the ancient woods, and the ancient artillery towers make people gradually remove the heat. "The sound of good birds sings in the clouds, and the cool breeze is swaying and listening to the sound of waves. New knowledge drinks a pot of wine, and the old rain is poured carefully." Yi Huafu recited while walking.
"The environment is beautiful, you still have to keep it!" Every day, Yang Xiufen, Xiao Shuzhen and other party members still lead the volunteers of the "Women's Service Team" to patrol the village to ensure the clean environment.
There are several brothers living in this family. Who is working outside the family? Zhang Helin introduced to the reporter one by one. He knew the reasons for poverty and living needs of each household, and was like introducing his own neighbors. When the villagers saw him, they greeted him enthusiastically, and some even ran home with eggs and fruits, "Take it back quickly, or give you money." Watching them turn around, he smiled and said, "The villagers are all simple."
"The village is very beautiful now. I hope I can live longer, live longer, and be shiny." In the sunset, the old man Yang Xiufen lit a hookah. It was the tobacco leaves she planted herself. "Do you have any wishes in the future?" asked the reporter. She shook her hand, "I am very content now, and I feel embarrassed to help the procuratorate. The whole village is thinking that I must rely on myself in the future!" She looked at the cute little grandson in the arms of her son next to her, and laughed loudly.
At this moment, the smoke of cooking is gradually rising, and everything is lush.
