Red Net Moment News reporter Guo Weican, photographer Xu Shijie, intern Li Qiumei, Yiyang report
was going to Beijing to participate in the National People's Congress and the National People's Congress, but Gao Ya was not idle for a moment.
Looking at the growth of the rape in the field, she frowned and muttered, "These snows have frozen them all." "So much so that people come up to them and don't notice it.
After greeting him, a fair and delicate face came into view, with long black hair casually behind his ears, and he smiled sweetly.
She is the secretary of the general party branch of Chitang Village? The villagers on the side saw the reporter's doubts and joked happily: "Don't you dare to think about it? Secretary Gao's small body can have a lot of energy, and it is amazing! ”
The villagers said that Gao Ya has led everyone to achieve a breakthrough in the village collective economy from 0 yuan to 2 million yuan through the development of rice oil, camellia planting, edible oil processing and other industries in recent years, and led the villagers to walk out of a road of industrial revitalization of the countryside according to local conditions.
Now, as a deputy to the National People's Congress, she has walked from the village ridge to the Great Hall of the People, bringing the "public opinion on the ridge" to Beijing. Gao Ya said: "The sense of achievement of the representative = the sense of achievement + happiness of the villagers." She is using her own personal experience to depict the road to democracy with Chinese characteristics.
Gao Ya led young people to sell products through e-commerce, live broadcast and other means, and explored more channels for the development of the industry.
The married daughter-in-law became the village party secretary
Chitang Village is located at the north gate of Taojiang County, Yiyang City, close to Changde Hanshou.
Gao Ya, who was originally married to the daughter-in-law of Chitang Village, ran a wholesale department on the street, and lived a good life.
Unexpectedly, in 2020, during the change of the two committees of the village branch, the old team decided to boldly use young people to screen from the villagers who have scientific and technological cultural knowledge and know how to operate and manage. Gao Ya, a "post-90s" girl who graduated from the business major, was "pushed" to the position of secretary of the general branch of the village party, and together with five other young people, she formed a new village committee team.
At that time, Gao Ya became 'high-pressure', because he carried the trust of more than 3,000 people in the village on his shoulders! Talking about this, Gao Ya said with a smile. But at that time, she had a tenacity, and she was secretly determined to do a good job in the village. So, she left her family's career and threw herself into the village.
After the new team took office, they visited the villagers and sorted out the development history, and found that Chitang Village was once an oil collection base. There are more than 3,000 acres of cultivated land in the village, all of which are good fields with long sunshine hours and fertile soil. Now in more than 5,000 acres of bamboo forest, there are still more than 1,400 acres of old tea trees, after expert testing, the fruit and oil yield are very high.
After grasping the family background, Gao Ya humbly asked the old village cadres for advice, but learned that the village had also considered developing the industry through land transfer and reclamation of camellia forests many times, but due to the serious aging of the villagers, too many interests of the masses were involved, and the implementation was delayed. Gao Ya did not lose heart, she and the two committees of the village branch carefully organized and planned party member activity days, major holiday meetings and other activities, patiently listened to the suggestions and opinions of old party members, and won the support of 96 party members in the village. "The symposium gradually brought the villagers together. Gao Ya said.
In July 2021, the land circulation work was launched, and the old party members went into battle to do the ideological work of the villagers, and 1,200 acres of land were successfully transferred in less than two months. Chitang Village set up a cooperative while the iron was hot, and quickly carried out the rotation planting of "rape + rice" and "green manure + high-quality rice", and the income from the land reached 160,000 yuan that year.
In 2022, taking into account factors such as manpower, Gao Ya boldly decided to contract part of the land to the villagers, and Liu Chenxi, who had rented a field for a lifetime, and other 3 villagers became the first batch of large grain growers to sign a contract with the village collective. "I have contracted 300 acres of land to grow high-quality rice, and the yield is good. Liu Chenxi said that thanks to the full support of village cadres and the advantages of contiguous land, the cost of labor and machinery has been reduced, and the input per mu has been reduced by more than 200 yuan.
The new farming model has aroused the enthusiasm of the villagers, and many villagers can't wait to revitalize the camellia forests on the mountain. Gao Ya used his professional knowledge to carefully analyze the market, and suggested that an edible oil processing plant should be established in the form of "cooperatives + farmers", and the "Huangli Mountain" brand should be established after the most typical mountain peaks in the village.
The old branch secretary has oil extraction technology, and young people have broad thinking, and they sell products through e-commerce, live broadcast and other methods, and explore more channels for the development of the industry. Gao Ya said that now the village has gradually established a "one-stop" industrial chain of planting, purchasing, processing and sales of tea seed oil and rapeseed oil. In 2023, the village's collective operating income will reach 2 million yuan, and Chitang Village will also become a municipal-level collective economic advanced village from the original provincial-level poor village.
The villagers gave a thumbs up to the young female secretary who was running around in the fields: "She has done a good job in the village." ”
After the harvest, the villagers smiled happily.
She is our representative
In 2023, Gao Ya was elected as a deputy to the National People's Congress. When she first started as a representative, she was always a little worried, for fear that she would not do well and disappoint the villagers, but she said, "I am much more mature now." ”
She said that she likes the feeling of doing things for everyone, especially when some suggestions are replied to and adopted, and she feels a sense of accomplishment.
The annual precipitation in Chitang Village is scarce, the water source is scarce, and the forest fields rely on the sky to drink water. Although there is a reservoir in the village, the ownership is not in Chitang Village, it is shared by multiple villages, which is a typical "three monks have no water to drink", and the reservoir has been abandoned for more than 60 years. In order to make full use of the reservoir to provide water sources for irrigation of tens of thousands of people and nurture forest land, Gao Ya reported the situation to the top, connected with several neighboring villages, promoted cooperation and exchanges between villages, raised funds, and quickly started the maintenance work of the reservoir.
Since the peasants elected me as a deputy, then I must be a peasant as a deputy. ”
The enterprise is on fire, the villagers are rich, the economy is alive, and the infrastructure construction of Chitang Village is also improving step by step. In the past two years, Murakami has promoted infrastructure construction through the development of the collective economy, and has invested more than 700 yuan in the construction of people's livelihood projects, which has been used to strengthen and widen highways, green main roads, strengthen and expand mountain ponds, build irrigation channels, install street lights, and carry out human settlements environment management.
Taojiang County has 1.15 million acres of bamboo forests, the planting area ranks first in Hunan and third in the country, and more than 300,000 farmers in the county are engaged in the bamboo industry. Bamboo is the business card of Taojiang County, Hunan Province, and Chitang Village also has more than 2,600 acres of bamboo forest, which has become a new "key" to the development of the village in Gao Ya's eyes.
In 2022, the output value of the county's bamboo industry will reach 1472.8 billion yuan, farmers' per capita bamboo income of 4,000 yuan, but in order to achieve rural revitalization, villagers increase income and get rich, it is also necessary to solve many problems such as low effective utilization of bamboo resources, imperfect bamboo industry scientific research system, and lack of leading demonstration and guidance. Last year, Gao Ya brought suggestions on the innovative development of the bamboo industry and the construction of forest roads in mountainous areas to Beijing, and suggested that Taojiang County, Hunan Province should be used as a pilot county to build a demonstration base for the integrated development of primary, secondary and tertiary industries featuring bamboo.
In the past year, Gao Ya has also followed the blueprint drawn in his heart to promote the development of Chitang Village to a new level step by step.
She imagined that the camellia industry and the forest road industry in the village were parallel to each other, making blood for the collective economy of the village. As long as the economic blood circulates, the road to prosperity for the villagers will be opened.
Speaking of Gao Ya's election as a representative of the National People's Congress, villager Liu Wanggao expressed everyone's heart: "She has done so much for the whole village, of course she is our representative!" ”
When he was free, Gao Ya took the time to chat with the villagers and collect their suggestions and ideas.
Go to Beijing with the public opinion on the ridge
The itinerary before going to Beijing is always very full. On February 27, Gao Ya participated in two discussions in the county. On February 28, she returned to the village for a meeting and research. On March 1, she left for Changsha, where she joined the delegation and headed for Beijing.
Her bag was filled with delicate bamboo handicrafts and a few heavy suggestions. From accelerating the high-quality development of the trillion-dollar bamboo industry to increasing the support for entrepreneurship of agricultural and rural talents, all of them are closely related to the hometown fathers and elders.
When it comes to participating in the National People's Congress and the National People's Congress for the first time last year, Gao Ya still remembers it vividly. Because he wanted to speak, Gao Ya was worried that his Mandarin would not be good for him, so he practiced his speech for half a month before the meeting.
This year, Gao Ya is more calm, and she is more thinking about how to better convey the voice of farmers. For this reason, whenever she has time, she will take a small notebook to chat with the villagers and collect suggestions and ideas from the villagers.
Lao Liu, are you at home? ”
On February 29, close to 12 noon, Gao Ya finished his morning's work and came to the house of Liu Feng, a rice-oil mixed farmer in the village.
Liu Feng heard the sound, opened the curtain to welcome out, and after seeing Gao Ya, he said with a smile: "Secretary Xiao Gao is here." ”
Lao Liu, I will go to Beijing for two sessions in a few days, you say, if our village wants to develop, is there any problem that needs to be solved? ”
After the two sat down, they pondered for a while and said: "Secretary Xiaogao, you see, I have planted 10 acres of ecological rice since the beginning of the previous year using the rice-oil rotation model, and the net income per mu is nearly 1,000 yuan, and there is 10,000 yuan in 10 mu, which has doubled my income!" So I wondered if we could expand the scale and add some new varieties. ”
Lao Liu, let's go together, don't worry, I will definitely perform my duties as a representative, understand everyone's demands, and build our village better. In the future, it will also drive the villagers of our village to obtain greater benefits. ”
Liu Feng was happy, "That's good, our village is developing better and better, that's my suggestion!" ”
There is still a long way to go to lead everyone to get rich and become well-off. Today, the envoy of Chitang Village is still on the road.
At noon on the 3rd of the month, the sun was shining in Beijing, and Gao Ya's plane slowly landed at the Capital International Airport. She said that she was ready, and two days later, she walked into the Great Hall of the People with the instructions of her fathers and fellow villagers.
She also said that by the time she returned from Beijing, the rape flowers in the village should have bloomed!
