"Okay, now everyone knows you! Let's start today's meeting. Today our Secretariat invited a special guest, Comrade Selyosha, the secretary of the Moscow Youth League Committee! Maybe some of the notices here are very familiar with Selyosha, and some comrades are not that familiar with Selyosha. Then I will briefly introduce this comrade to you. To be honest, the first time I heard about Selyosha was from our old secretary Comrade Andropov. It was probably a few years ago that a serious food safety problem broke out at Gorky University. The old secretary was very angry and went to Gorky personally.

Ki, when he came back, he was very happy and said that he saw a young cadre with great ideas in Gorky, who made Gorky's spare time, not only the introduction object, but also the difficulties in life. Whoever is about to get sick, the Youth League Committee can pay to help everyone overcome difficulties, and even purchased a lot of daily necessities from abroad to help everyone improve their quality of life. The old secretary praised this young cadre! He was soon transferred to Moscow to serve as the deputy secretary of the Youth League Committee!" Gorbachev said this, picked up a water cup and drank a sip of water, and then continued.

"Our cadre was not idle when he came to Moscow. He had just been in office for a few months and reported to his superiors! Guess what, he actually wanted to build a house for the vast number of workers and solve the housing difficulties of ordinary families in Moscow! To be honest, I didn't believe that a cadre of the Youth League Committee could do such a big thing, but Secretary Andropov finally opposed the public and supported him. In the end, everyone saw that the beautiful new workers' city in the southern part of Moscow was this comrade.

It was built by hand. When the first phase of the project was completed, the old secretary and I visited there! Secretary Andropov once told me that every time I was upset when working in the office, as long as I walked to the window and looked at the building complex in the south, I felt that I had finally done some good things for the people!" When Gorbachev said this, the secretary present sighed. General Secretary Andropov had just passed away and had a high prestige. Everyone still missed this old secretary very much.

"If a cadre like Selyosha is evaluated using our cadre appointment evaluation mechanism, it is likely to be an evaluation that is not doing the right job! But such a cadre did something that our Moscow municipal government cannot do! General Secretary Chernenko always teaches our economic cadres to have greater autonomy and dare to explore boldly. Our country is currently in a new stage of socialism - the beginning of improving a developed socialist society. This is a long-term stage, and it may take several generations of our people to work together to complete the historical mission entrusted to this stage! Under this background, the more cadres like Selyosha are not doing the right job, the better, and the more capable ones should work! Comrade Selyosha used a series of methods we have never tried to solve practical problems in his work. I can tell you that the new city of Moscow did not spend a penny on the government, and the construction funds were raised from the whole society. This is the ability..."

Gorbachev talked freely for half an hour, and Selyosha felt a little embarrassed when he was praised. He forced himself to look ahead and must calm down. He now understood what Secretary Gorbachev meant. Today, he gave him a chance to speak at the regular meeting of the Secretariat, which was to build momentum for him. After all, the cadres who taught the secretaries of the Secretariat can be said to be recognized experts in the party in some ways. Gorbachev changed his tone and ended his speech. He first asked Selyosha to talk about a series of new methods and measures he had taken to build a new city in Moscow, how to build such a large and high-quality housing project without using the state’s penny.

Selyosha adjusted the microphone in front of him, and he sat at the last seat of the conference table. All the secretaries of the Secretariat were looking at him at this moment, waiting for his speech. Selyosha gritted his teeth and said, "Dear leaders, I am really flattered to be able to attend the Secretariat meeting today. In fact, the success of the Workers' New Town project is not my own credit, but the result of our Moscow Youth League Committee, Moscow Trade Union, and other brother units involved in this work working together under the care of the leaders. When I first came to Moscow to work, I didn't know what to do at the beginning. Unlike Gorky, Moscow is not only the capital of our great motherland, but also

It is a place that the aspiring young people in the country yearn for. When I first came to the Youth League Committee, I went to the front line to have a discussion with my friends and asked them what they had dreams. Many comrades from the League members told me that their biggest dream is to have a house where a family can live together in Moscow City, without having to live in a tube building in the unit, waiting for the country to live in the working age before they can allocate houses. I thought at that time that our Youth League Committee is the home of the majority of young friends, and their difficulties are our difficulties. Whether our service is good depends on whether we can solve the difficulties encountered by the members in their lives and work! So I decided to make the solution to the housing problem the focus of our work.”

"Secretary Gorbachev told us that you didn't ask for a penny of the country at that time. How did your funding problem be solved?" a secretary asked curiously.

"Funds are indeed a big problem. The funds in our Youth League Committee want to promote such a large project are really a bit whimsical. After all, our income is only the group fees paid by the members and the funds allocated by our superiors. This money is a drop in the bucket for the first phase of the Workers' New Town! For this reason, we thought of raising funds from the public. When I worked in Gorky, I finally had some mass base. I issued some bonds through the Mutual Aid Association and raised some deposits for renting houses among young workers who were interested in the Workers' New Town. In order to save money and time, we did not start from scratch, but instead settled eight unfinished buildings in the south of the city, which solved the problem of funds!" Xie Liaosha roughly recalled some work matters in the early stage of the Workers' New Town project. Several secretaries kept asking various questions to carefully inquire about the specific implementation of the Workers' New Village project...

On the next day, the front pages of the four major official newspapers "Issue", "Prince Truth", "Labor", and "Prince Truth of the Communist Youth League" also published the report made by Selyosha at the regular meeting of the Secretariat...
