When it comes to the Beijing office, many Beijingers often regard it as a place with rich food, strong nostalgia and dialects. Send some officials, businessmen and celebrities with status and high grades to Beijing to "stay"; Especially when it is difficult to buy train tickets for returning home near the Spring Festival, it will be satisfying to find friends in the Beijing office. In addition to these, there are some people who secretly show off their abilities that they dare not make public, including such comments as "eating in front of the leaders" and "getting along well in Beijing". However, in the past two years, the image of the Beijing office has become more and more bleak. From Li Zhen's case, Fuyou Wang, director of the Beijing office of the Hebei Provincial Government, was sentenced to life imprisonment, to Cheng Kejie's case, Li Yihong, deputy director of the Beijing office of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, was investigated for bribery; From the "Muma Case" in Shenyang, Cui Li (director level), director of Shenyang Beijing Office, was brought to justice, to Zhan Min, former deputy director of Guangzhou Municipal Government Beijing Office and deputy director of Beijing Guangzhou Building Preparation Office, who was investigated for accepting bribes of 2, yuan, and Wu Tingxiang, former director of Jiangsu Beijing Office, was sentenced to 19 years' imprisonment for accepting bribes, misappropriating public funds and neglecting his duties ... It can be found that in recent years, when investigating and handling major corruption cases that shocked the whole country, Ghosts can be found in the Beijing office, and the heads of many institutions in Beijing have been on the list for many times. The mysterious face of the Beijing office has been paid more and more attention, and the term "Beijing office" has appeared more and more in major media in China and even in the world. When New Weekly reported this phenomenon, it used the following sentence: (Beijing office) is easy to grow into a decadent flower lacking supervision; CCTV International directly attacked its disadvantages, saying that the Beijing office "has an activity energy beyond imagination and has become a public reception base camp". Many media even called the Beijing office "corruption office" and "erosion office" directly.

Recently, Bai Bing, the former director of the Beijing Office of Jiangxi Provincial Government, once again humiliated the term Beijing Office. On July 2, 25, at the age of 62, she stood on the trial bench of Beijing No.2 Intermediate People's Court for allegedly embezzling more than 7, yuan.

According to the news from Jiangxi, Bai Bing's case is closely related to Ding Xinfa, the chief procurator of Jiangxi Provincial Procuratorate. Before her arrest, Bai Bing was the legal representative of Beijing Yuzhang Economic and Technical Cooperation Company. She worked in the Policy Research Office of Jiangxi Provincial Government and served as the legal representative of Jiangxi Economic and Technical Cooperation Company in Beijing. According to the prosecution's accusation, in August, 1997, Bai Bing took advantage of his position as the legal representative of Jiangxi Economic and Technical Cooperation Company in Beijing, and used the means of instructing others to falsely issue invoices and materials requisition forms to take 72,48 yuan of public funds for himself. Bai Bing said that she should be responsible for the accusation that the procuratorate embezzled public funds. However, when talking about the specific circumstances, she didn't give a detailed confession on the grounds of "bad brain and unclear details", which added mystery to the case.

why has the Beijing office become a flower of erosion? What is the root cause of this evil result? Let's approach the Beijing office together.

a special landscape

through decades of development, the Beijing office has played an important role in promoting the economic development of the sending area and Beijing, especially for underdeveloped areas, which are closely linked with the whole country and even the whole world.

what kind of organization is the Beijing office? How does it exist in this society? There is a "Beijing Office Management Division" specially set up in the State Council Bureau of Organs Affairs, which is the only superior authority of local government offices in Beijing. However, from the management system, the "Beijing Office Management Division" is only a macro-guidance organization, and it has no right to interfere with the daily work of the Beijing office. People, money and materials are still managed by the sending government where the Beijing office is located. In the management sequence of the local government, the Beijing office enjoys a variety of "immunity" for its "unconventional" operation in its daily work.

If we study the origin of the Beijing office, we can start with the Guild Hall in China, which has a long history in China, from Luoyang, the ancient capital, to Chang 'an in Xijing, and then to Nanjing and Beijing. It can be said that the Guild Hall exists where the capital is established. Especially after Kublai Khan made Yanjing its capital in Qing Dynasty, the political and cultural center of China basically moved to Beijing. After hundreds of years of breeding, the guildhall in various places took root in Beijing, which affected the economic and cultural development of Beijing.

No one can tell how many foreign guilds there were in Beijing during the old China period. According to the information found by the reporter from the Beijing Archives, there were more than 37 guilds in Beijing at the beginning of 195 after the founding of New China. In the early days, the clubhouse in Beijing had the functions of connecting with hometown friendship, communicating information, helping each other, helping the poor and saving money, and also made great contributions to the employment, consumption and logistics of Beijing people.

In the old China, Beijing's guildhall was full of corruption and filth. The children of wealthy businessmen and big landlords from all over the country make connections and entrust their families through the guild hall in Kyoto, and thousands of taels of money from running officials can be put in to exchange for a platform and a mansion. "After three years' work, 1, pieces of snowflake silver are back." An official novel tells the true meaning, "This is one of the safest investments with the highest rate of return in the world."

during the Kuomintang administration, Nanjing government also had many offices in Beijing (South), among which there was an Eighth Route Army office in Beijing (South) at No.66, the northeast corner of Nanjing Drum Tower. Relevant historical data show that the main task of the Eighth Route Army Office in Beijing (South) is to publicize the Eighth Route Army's anti-Japanese and national salvation program and achievements; Develop and consolidate the anti-Japanese national United front; Rescue the "political prisoners" held by the Kuomintang, and receive and examine the released "political prisoners"; Receive party member who lost organizational relations and patriotic youth who asked to participate in the revolution; Restore and establish party organizations in the Yangtze River valley and all parts of South China; To receive salaries, ordnance, medical drugs and other military materials from the military organs of the National Government; Purchasing the materials lacking in the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region and the Eighth Route Army and transporting them to Shaanxi and Shanxi by railway; Collect War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression intelligence; Prepare to publish Xinhua Daily.

It can be said that the Eighth Route Army Office in Beijing (South) has made an indispensable contribution to the success of the China Revolution.

In 195, after the founding of New China, the property of many clubs in Beijing was confiscated or confiscated, and the only remaining clubs lost their functions and became a memorial or tourist attraction. Instead, the offices of provincial and municipal governments in Beijing and the liaison offices of prefectures, cities, counties, towns, townships and villages in Beijing. These institutions, commonly known as "Beijing offices", were only one person and one room in their infancy. At that time, these offices in Beijing, together with embassies in China, formed a colorful landscape in contemporary Beijing.

after years of development, the Beijing office has also become the leading force in Beijing's political and economic development. According to "authoritative" data, there are now more than 6 Beijing-based institutions approved by the people's governments of more than 3 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government, as well as Beijing-based offices set up by the people's governments of cities with separate plans and special economic zones, and Beijing-based offices of governments of various regions, prefecture-level cities and below, with nearly 1, permanent staff and fixed assets exceeding 1 billion yuan. According to media statistics, more than 3, offices and liaison offices have been set up in Beijing by unapproved enterprises, local governments and even a department of local governments.

Many foreign-funded enterprises have also set up offices in Beijing. A person in charge of Chaoyang District in Beijing once said when introducing the advantageous position of Chaoyang District: "... there are 68 representative offices of foreign banks, 88 investment companies and 4,189 foreign offices in Beijing, accounting for 74%, 66% and 49% of the city's total respectively." In this way, Beijing "foreign banks, investment companies and foreign businessmen" should have more than 1, offices in Beijing. Obviously, these Beijing offices with foreign investment background have brought great business opportunities to Chaoyang District, and they are also an important part of Chaoyang District's economic composition.

In addition, some world organizations, enterprises and universities in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan have also set up offices in Beijing, such as the Beijing offices of UNAIDS, WFP and Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, which have attracted much media attention. On August 27th, 25, under the operation of the Beijing office of Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Chen Xiuye, the first science candidate in Beijing, gave up Tsinghua University and chose Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, becoming a good part of the Beijing office.

When interviewing an official of the Beijing Office Management Department, the reporter couldn't come up with an accurate figure about the nature of the Beijing office and how many offices there are. "There are more than 3, provincial and municipal government offices, provincial and municipal governments' offices in Beijing, domestic enterprises' offices in Beijing, foreign governments' offices in Beijing and foreign-funded enterprises' offices in Beijing." The official said with emotion, "This is a huge number!"

In addition to the Beijing office established by enterprises in Beijing, the establishment of Beijing office by the government is a product of the planned economy era. From the official overseas institutions in the planned economy era to the official industrial institutions today, the Beijing office has been deeply branded as a political economy. When it comes to the role of the Beijing office, each local government has its own set of explanations, but it is always the same. In these explanations, there are two words that appear the most frequently, that is, attracting investment and receiving. Judging from the setting of the Beijing office, an economic information office (some are called the Economic Cooperation Office) and a reception office constitute the framework of the Beijing office, which also shows that attracting investment and reception are the main tasks of the Beijing office.

before the reform and opening up, "running (department), moving forward (money), striving for funding, striving for planned targets and striving for preferential policies" was recognized as an important function of the Beijing office. After the reform and opening up, China has entered a sound socialist market economy. However, the function of the Beijing office of "running ministries and pulling projects" has not been weakened. Turning on the computer, we can see such contents on the official websites of Beijing offices in many provinces and cities: "Responsible for economic cooperation, attracting investment, and providing matchmaking services for enterprises and products in the province; Liaison with the central government, ministries and commissions of state organs, foreign embassies in China, trading companies, people from all walks of life in Beijing who have worked in our province or have been to the countryside; Establish a multi-level information network to collect, sort out, transmit and submit all kinds of information to our province. " These are also the top priorities of every Beijing office.

"Jilin provincial government office in Beijing introduced 1.5 billion yuan" is an article of Jilin Daily on July 8, 25. In this report, the reporter wrote: "In order to develop the economy of Jilin province, this year, Jilin provincial government office in Beijing has developed' hometown complex' and organized Jilin fellow villagers in Beijing to carry out activities such as Jilin University Beijing Alumni Association and Jilin No.1 Middle School Beijing Alumni Association. Up to now, it has attracted 1.5 billion yuan for Jilin Province.

"According to the person in charge of the Beijing office, there are no fewer than 1, people in Jilin Province who have developed well in Beijing and have mastered a lot of information and technology. These fellow villagers have a strong hometown complex and are willing to contribute to the construction of their hometown. Not long ago, the Beijing office took advantage of the relationship between these hometown people to hold the "25 China? Jilin state-owned industrial enterprise property right transfer and project investment conference invited more than 7 investors. At the same time, Jilin fellow villagers held various meetings for the upcoming Northeast Asia Expo, and * * * issued more than 45 invitations and materials. "

today, many governments regard attracting investment as a top priority. What is the concept of introducing 1.5 billion yuan in the context of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council's efforts to revitalize the Northeast? For Jilin Province, the Beijing office has undoubtedly made great contributions.

Similar to this, the Beijing office of Guizhou Province also takes revitalizing the local economy as an unshirkable responsibility. The Beijing office of Guizhou Province is located in Guizhou Building, Sakura West Street, North Third Ring Road, Beijing. Different from the Beijing office of Jilin Province, the Beijing office of Jilin Province introduced capital, while the Beijing office of Guizhou Province introduced advanced scientific knowledge and excellent talent concept to Guizhou. On May 21st, 25, this Beijing office brought together more than 17 Guizhou doctors in Beijing, and established the contact point of Guizhou doctors in Beijing.

when talking about the establishment of the contact point for doctors in Beijing in Guizhou provincial office, the reporter of jinqian online wrote passionately: "according to incomplete statistics, there are more than 5 doctors in Beijing in our province, who work or study in dozens of state organs, scientific research and education institutions and enterprises in the capital. They are either academic officials, academic leaders or industry elites. How to unite Guizhou doctors in Beijing, make suggestions for Guizhou and contribute to the leap-forward development of Guizhou? After more than half a year's brewing, the Organization Department of Guizhou Provincial Party Committee, the office of the provincial government in Beijing and the magazine Contemporary Guizhou of the provincial party Committee finally established the Contact Point of Guizhou Doctors in Beijing. "

When a Beijing reporter wrote about the Liaison Office of Zhanjiang Municipal Government in Guangdong Province, he said that it had extraordinary courage: "When Zhanjiang Port celebrated its 4th anniversary, the Liaison Office actually chartered a Boeing 737 to deliver a' Central High-level Delegation' consisting of 136 relevant leaders, economic, cultural and press celebrities, famous experts and scholars to the celebration site, setting a precedent for foreign exchange and foreign affairs activities in Zhanjiang's history; The liaison office won the state to settle a 5,-ton pulp project with an investment of nearly 1 billion yuan in Zhanjiang; The director of the liaison office completed the first 26,-word academic monograph "Introduction to the Work of Local Offices Abroad" in China. " From this reporter's flattering language, we can see the omnipotent power of the Beijing office.

In addition to building relationships, running projects and providing services, the Beijing office also shoulders the functions of the government in a special period. When it comes to things that damage the image of the sending government, no matter what the project is or who it is to receive, it must make way for maintaining the image of the government. Therefore, the Beijing office puts the maintenance of the stability of the capital and the image of the sending government in the first place. For example, handling the issue of sending petitioners to Beijing to petition is one of the main government affairs of the Beijing office. It seems that this government affairs is not a matter of responsibility, but once it is true, it is the most urgent and urgent. When the author interviewed the Beijing office of a province in northwest China, he just heard a phone call from a national department to the director of the Beijing office, asking them to "lead the petitioners in the past". The hospitable director hastily interrupted the reporter's interview and organized personnel from various departments to handle the reception of petitioners in Beijing.

After a busy time, the director of the Beijing office said apologetically that he had treated the reporter badly and asked him to forgive him, which made the reporter admire him for his calm and polite manner. According to the reporter's request, he introduced to the reporter the process of handling the petitioners sent by the Beijing office: generally, the national petition department or the dispatched office of the Beijing Public Security Bureau informed the Beijing office, and then the Beijing office sent a special person to take the petitioners back to the Beijing office, and then the Beijing office informed the governments at the prefecture, county and township levels where the petitioners were located, and these government departments sent people to Beijing to pick them up.
