Recently, Yuan Yanwen, former director of the Hunan Provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, was sentenced to 13 years in prison and fined 1.7 million yuan for accepting bribes and embezzlement.
In March 2023, a few days before he was suddenly dismissed, he was even investigating spring plowing and production work in a certain county, and his demeanor was relaxed, and he was completely unaware of the upcoming investigation.
Agriculture and rural areas are a very important department, which has a bearing on the livelihood of tens of thousands of peasants in the province and the agricultural production and construction in the vast rural areas, and can be said to be the core of the government's work.
The dismissal of the director of the Provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs in office naturally caused quite a stir, especially in the agricultural system in the province, and everyone was curious to ask in their hearts-
“”
After a year, from being investigated to being double-opened, then arrested and prosecuted, and finally sentenced, each process has attracted the attention of the outside world, during which Yuan Yanwen also "honored" appeared in the anti-corruption feature film, becoming a negative model.
A lot has happened in the past year, and his famous saying that "the worries of the enterprise first, the joy of the boss later" are now widely known, and the colleagues who have fought with him on the agricultural front have finally known that something happened to him.
Yuan Yanwen, a mysterious director, his story is so intriguing.
As early as before he was investigated in 2023, Yuan Yanwen had actually been punished.
In September 2018, according to relevant media reports on the illegal dwarf enclosure of Xiasai Lake in Dongting Lake District, the Hunan Provincial Party Committee held 25 units accountable, and many people were dismissed", the case involved a wide range of people, and Yuan Yanwen, director of the Provincial Agricultural Commission (then director of the Provincial Animal Husbandry and Fisheries Bureau), was given a serious warning from the party.
Half a year ago, in February 2018, he had just been promoted from the post of deputy director of the Provincial Agricultural Committee to director.
According to the relevant regulations, within one and a half years of receiving a serious warning, Party members must not be promoted within the Party or recommended to non-Party organizations for positions outside the Party that are higher than their original positions.
However, just a month later, the notice of Yuan Yanwen's appointment as the head of the provincial agriculture and rural department was issued.
Some people may say that the serious warning punishment within the party affects the position within the party, and the director of the department does not belong to the position within the party, so the director of the provincial agricultural committee was promoted and reused as the director of the provincial agriculture and rural department, which is not considered a violation of the regulations.
The reason is of course, but the intuitive visual effect is that Yuan Yanwen was punished a month ago, but now he has been promoted again, yes, it is "promoted with illness".
This is obviously a play on words, and it is indeed justified, but it also fully shows that this punishment has no effect on him at all.
So, can this play on words, and the punishment that is carried out at the same time as the promotion, can it still be called a punishment? Is there still a deterrent?
Through the information released by the first-instance verdict, it was found that Director Yuan began to degenerate at a very early age, starting in 1992, when he was only 27 years old, and his position was the secretary of the Hengshan County Youth League and County Party Committee.
What is shocking is not only the young age at which he first embezzled and accepted bribes, but also the fact that his position as secretary of the Communist Youth League and county party committee is also very suspicious; although this is a formal position, the actual administrative power is very small, the staff of this organization is very small, and the appointment and dismissal of the deputy secretary of the Communist Youth League and county party committee is not something that Yuan Yanwen can decide.
This can't help but make people wonder, 27-year-old Yuan Yanwen, secretary of the Youth League and County Party Committee, how did he become corrupt?
To put it bluntly, at that time, he had neither experience nor space, and he didn't even have the conditions to breed corruption, but Yuan Yanwen created the conditions by force, and he can be regarded as a talent.
It should be noted that Yuan Yanwen was admitted to Hunan Agricultural College at the age of 16 and became a rare undergraduate student in that era, which not only shows that he has the potential of a prodigy, but also shows that he is more mature than his peers.
At the age of 27, he has actually been working for 7 years, and he has been a township chief before.
In addition, Yuan Yanwen officially served as the secretary of the Youth League and County Party Committee in April 1991.1 He groped for about a year in this position, and only began to stretch out his hand after confirming his safety.
This is very much in line with his character, and he has shown his cautious style in later feature films.
It is worth mentioning that Yuan Yanwen's first position of corruption and bribery was the secretary of the Hengshan County Youth League and County Party Committee, and the second position was the county magistrate of Hengdong County.
During this period, he also served as the secretary of the Hengyang Youth League Municipal Committee, and when he was in the Youth League and County Committee, he was degenerate, how did he become more powerful and higher-level after the Youth League and Municipal Committee, but he behaved properly?
Perhaps he also had a brief conscience discovery.
Director of the hall, relatives, when it comes to these two keywords, I think many people will have in their minds Director Qi who let "wild dogs be police dogs", and Director Yuan is undoubtedly art into reality.
How much does he really "care" about his relatives?
Yuan Yanwen, who had just become the director of the Provincial Animal Husbandry and Fisheries Bureau in 2012, couldn't wait to make profits for his relatives with the power in his hands, and he asked his younger brother to defraud his younger brother of 500,000 yuan in agriculture-related subsidies under the guise of raising fish in cages in his hometown in Huarong County, Yueyang City, Hunan Province.
When his brother was interviewed, he confessed, ""
As a result, the agriculture-related subsidy of 500,000 yuan was sent to his younger brother like a red envelope.
Unscrupulous businessman Liu recalled in the feature film, ""
After becoming the head of the hall, Yuan Yanwen became more skilled, and the unscrupulous businessman didn't do anything, and the 10 million was received.
However, Yuan Yanwen's "concern" for businessmen and relatives was different, and the latter was more vigorous.
In the interaction with businessman Liu, out of mutual appreciation, Yuan and Liu actually formed a family of children and daughters, and after becoming in-laws, Liu was finally able to enjoy Director Yuan's meticulous "care".
Yuan Yanwen said in the feature film about this matter, ""
Director Qi is just a fictional character in the TV series, and Director Yuan is a real case of good relatives and friends in reality.
In his double-open circular, it was clearly written that the family style was not right, "family-style" corruption was engaged, and relatives and friends were favored.
Even the distribution of disaster relief funds in his hometown must give priority to the relatives of his old Yuan family, and it is conceivable that Director Yuan is not much worse than "wild dogs as police dogs".
Looking at Yuan Yanwen's resume, he was able to become the leader of the provincial department from a small clerk in the township, relying on his work ability, but it is impossible to rely only on ability, without the appreciation of the leaders, they cannot have later achievements.
So, who is that leader who appreciates him? When did it appear? And how did it help him?
As mentioned above, after Yuan Yanwen was corrupted for the first time at the age of 27, he spent nearly ten years in peace, and during this time he was transferred from Hengshan County to Hengyang City.
first worked in the office of the Municipal and Rural Enterprise Committee, and half a year later was transferred to the Hengyang Municipal Party Committee Office as a department-level secretary.
Whose secretary is it?
The one who can be equipped with a department-level secretary is naturally the secretary of the municipal party committee, and Yan Yongsheng, the secretary of the municipal party committee at the time, is Yuan Yanwen's nobleman.
Yan Yongsheng served as secretary of the Hengyang Municipal Party Committee in 1993 and left in March 1999, and Yuan Yanwen served for him for more than two years until November 1996, when he was directly promoted to secretary of the Youth League Municipal Committee.
In other words, it took only two years and nine months for Yuan Yanwen to enter the Municipal Party Committee Office at the department level to be promoted to the department level and leave the Municipal Party Committee Office.
Secretary Yan obviously treated him well, and he didn't take up much of his time at all, almost in the end, what the secretary of the Youth League Municipal Committee means, everyone must know it, that is a good future visible to the naked eye.
It is worth mentioning that it is Yuan Yanwen's luck to meet Yan Yongsheng, Secretary Yan attaches great importance to the cultivation of talents, especially young cadres, he is quite open-minded, and has published relevant articles in many journals to discuss the experience of cultivating talents.
Yuan Yanwen's rapid growth is inseparable from Yan Yongsheng's cultivation, before he was promoted to the much-anticipated secretary of the Communist Youth League Municipal Committee, he was only a deputy division-level supervisor of the Municipal Party Committee Office, of course, he was actually engaged in the secretary's work of the leader.
In 1998, Yan Yongsheng no longer served as the secretary of the Hengyang Municipal Party Committee, and went to Changsha to serve as the deputy director of the Provincial People's Congress for nearly ten years.
Yuan Yanwen also lived up to the high expectations of the old leaders, became the county magistrate at the age of 36, and later served as the secretary of the Hengdong County Party Committee, a member of the Standing Committee of the Hengyang Municipal Party Committee, and the secretary of the Leiyang Municipal Party Committee.
It is worth noting that Yuan Yanwen, who has been restrained for many years, has not completely reformed his evil ways, and after becoming the county magistrate, his corrupt nature has been exposed again.
Of course, a person who has ascended to heaven is a chicken dog, and he has good relatives and friends in his bones, and he has not forgotten his relatives in his hometown after he has developed, and they have all been stained with the light of the county magistrate Yuan, and their living conditions have gradually improved.
Some people will be curious, why is Yuan Yanwen, who has a poor character and "drags his family", to be appreciated by the secretary of the municipal party committee and vigorously cultivated?
On the one hand, Yuan Yanwen was one of the few college students in that era, and he studied agriculture, so Secretary Yan, who focused on the countryside and had a pragmatic style, naturally admired him very much.
On the other hand, it is also inseparable from his brilliant acting skills.
In the eyes of the leaders, he has always been a smart, flexible, hard-working Comrade Yuan, how can he not trust him?
There are two details to consider.
After Yuan Yanwen entered the Municipal Party Committee Office, he completed his work conscientiously and cautiously with high standards, and he did not dare to relax in the slightest after becoming the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee.
During Yan Yongsheng's tenure in Hengyang, Comrade Xiao Yuan under his nose never did anything out of the ordinary, nor did he make any untimely demands to him or various departments, although he was the secretary of the municipal party committee, and he could handle many things with just a hello.
In order to gain the trust of the leadership, Comrade Xiao Yuan temporarily gave up the fetters of family affection and "forbeared" for nearly ten years.
After he became the director of the Provincial Animal Husbandry and Fisheries Bureau, he excitedly informed his younger brother to raise fish in cages in his hometown, and personally took 500,000 yuan of funds to send to his younger brother, why was he so excited?
In addition to the joy of promotion, the release of true emotions that have been suppressed for many years is the key, the old leader has long since retired, and Comrade Xiao Yuan finally shouted "".
In April 2013, with the spread of the avian flu epidemic, in order to eliminate many people's fear of chicken, restore consumer confidence, and save the poultry industry, Yuan Yanwen, then director of the Hunan Provincial Animal Husbandry and Fisheries Bureau, arranged for 30 chickens to be made in the canteen.
The reporter who was hired in advance took a vivid picture of him eating chicken, and Yuan Yanwen also said in an interview, ""
The director took the lead in eating chicken, which attracted the attention of many netizens, and also attracted countless criticisms, netizens questioned, could it be that the director ate a meal, and the impact of avian flu would be gone?
Although Yuan Yanwen is taking the lead in eating, this kind of taking the lead is more like eating, drinking and having fun, rather than actually going to the aftermath of the farmers and reducing the losses of the farmers.
Yuan Yanwen's high-profile lead in eating chicken also has little effect on boosting the market, because the people know very well that the director eats assured chicken, which is not the same as what they eat, and it looks more like a joke.
But I have to admit that Yuan Yanwen's performance methods are very clever, at least the leaders saw him, a good comrade who worked hard during the bird flu period.
After the "enigmatic" Director Yuan fell from power, he repented and said, ""
The classic sentences come at your fingertips, and you don't learn from them, and you use them just right, which is also a true portrayal of him as an official, I have seen too much, and I always think that it is not my turn.
thought that his means were clever, this was the consensus of the officials after they were dismissed, and they were surprisingly unanimous, and Director Yuan was not exempt from vulgarity.
Finish.
