The Big Picture in Small Changes: The "Glitter" and "Star River" in the Performance of Six National People's Congress Delegates' Duties

2026-03-10   

On the beams of the houses in Wuke Village, Daliangshan, the weight of the cured meat is getting fatter and fatter, which is a small change in rural life that Geng Fu can represent; The conference tablet is specially equipped with a simplified voice package, which eliminates the need for blind representatives to have someone read on their behalf. This is a small change for Wang Yongcheng to perform his duties without barriers; In the corridors of old residential areas, foldable convenience stools quietly "go on duty". This is a small change made by Yang Miaomiao to solve the problem of elderly people's travel with care... These subtle changes are hidden in daily life's clothing, food, housing, and transportation, integrated into the busy fields and reflected in the smiles of neighbors and the roar of potential workshops and factories. They may seem small, but they are the most genuine "little joys" of the masses, writing the most vivid footnotes for the great era and a better life. With the expectations of the masses, representatives come from the grassroots and go towards the hearts of the people: paving the way for rural revitalization to become prosperous, inheriting the cultural heritage with every stitch and thread, promoting the transformation and upgrading of the manufacturing industry with technological innovation, and deeply cultivating the front line of education to safeguard the growth of young people... "Micro lights" converge and eventually become a "star river". Rural Revitalization and Industrial Wealth Transformation - "The fat of the cured meat in the villagers' homes has become fat" Geng Funeng, representative: "Promoting rural revitalization through the integration of characteristic industries" Before coming to Beijing, the villagers warmly invited me to his house to see his dried cured meat. ”Geng Funeng, a National People's Congress representative and chairman of the Good Doctor Group, noticed that the fat in the cured meat of his fellow villagers had significantly increased. Getting fat indicates that the pigs are well raised and that everyone has enough food and clothing to feed the wild boars. ”In Geng Funeng's opinion, whether life is good or not depends on whether the cured meat at home is fat or not. At an altitude of 3050 meters in Wuke Village, Butuo County, Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province, the bacon that used to hang sparsely on the beams of houses is now thick and shiny. This visible and tangible change is a vivid manifestation of the revitalization of rural areas in Daliangshan. In the past, high-altitude villages such as Wuke Village could only grow potatoes, oats, and buckwheat, with low yields and little income. The villagers used to worry about food and clothing for years. Geng Funeng deeply understands that only by strengthening characteristic industries can the villagers steadily increase their income. Many villages in Liangshan Prefecture have high altitudes and pollution-free soil, making them very suitable for growing traditional Chinese medicinal herbs. ”Since the establishment of Good Doctor Group in 1996, Geng Funeng has led his team to root in Liangshan Prefecture, building a mechanism of "company+party branch+cooperative+base+farmers". Not only does he provide free high-quality Chinese medicinal materials and systematic training for villagers, but he also organizes technical personnel to go deep into the fields and teach scientific planting techniques hand in hand, helping villagers gradually break away from the traditional mode of "relying on the weather for food" and steadily embark on a new path of industrial development of "relying on technology to increase income and relying on production to get rich". By 2025, Geng Funeng and his team will rely on the innovative model of "grain medicine intercropping" to orderly layout the understory traditional Chinese medicine industry in 23 villages in 10 counties of Liangshan Prefecture, planting a total of 34300 acres of traditional Chinese medicine such as Aconitum, Magnolia, and Lonicera japonica, which will radiate and drive stable income growth for more than 149000 farmers. In Huili City, Liangshan Prefecture, Geng Funeng carries out pomegranate and mulberry procurement work year-round through order based acquisition and guaranteed price mechanism. By 2025, the factory will acquire over 30000 tons of pomegranate raw fruits, helping local fruit farmers to continue to 'enrich their pockets'. On April 21, 2025, Yuntian Village in Yundian Town held a mulberry purchase ceremony. The earliest farmers in the village who planted mulberries all sighed in the beauty: "The purchasing point is right in front of our doorstep, just a six or seven minute walk away. We pick at least 200 kilograms a day, with stable prices and settlement on the same day. We feel particularly at ease." The stable industrial income has given every household a "reassurance pill", and the cured meat on the beams is hanging more and more, and the fat is getting thicker and thicker. "Comparing fat" has become a happy new scenery in the rural areas of Liangshan. Geng Funeng believes that rural revitalization cannot rely solely on a single industry, but must take the path of integrated development. Nowadays, many areas in Liangshan have access to highways, and the road network is becoming increasingly perfect. Villagers also have new expectations: to enjoy a "tourist meal". For example, Wuke Village has a 10000 acre Soma flower sightseeing base and a 10000 acre natural grassland, but these beautiful scenery are still 'unknown to the naked eye'. He hopes that in the future, the 'last mile' of the scenic area can be connected, rural landscape design can be optimized, and the integration of 'traditional Chinese medicine planting+rural tourism+folk experience' agriculture, culture and tourism can be promoted, so that the fragrance of medicinal herbs accompanies the fragrance of flowers, and the industrial road can be connected to the tourism road. Liangshan is a magical land, where people are grateful and willing to strive. ”Geng Fu believes that the future of Liangshan will bloom with captivating colors like the Soma flower. The Change in Livelihood Welfare and Barrier free Construction - "Conference Tablet Installed Simplified Voice Package" Representative Wang Yongcheng: The employment channels for disabled people have become wider, and the communication bridge has become smoother. "In the past, the livelihood of the blind group was relatively difficult; Nowadays, with the advancement of technology and the development of the times, our employment channels are becoming wider and wider, including massage, music education, piano tuning... "When it comes to the changes in the lives of people with disabilities, Wang Yongcheng, a National People's Congress representative and Vice Chairman of the China Disabled Persons' Federation, speaks with genuine warmth. Wang Yongcheng is the only blind representative among the 14th National People's Congress. He became blind at the age of 18 due to an accident. He, who never bowed to fate, overcame numerous difficulties and gradually became the chief physician of blind medical massage. As a staunch promoter of the disability cause, Wang Yongcheng has witnessed firsthand the lives of the blind community, becoming increasingly vivid in each change. The 'road' to go out is no longer difficult to walk on - wheelchair transportation, with boarding and alighting boards; Carrying a guide dog makes it more convenient to enter the station and take the bus; In the highway service area, barrier free platforms and toilets have been added... "Disabled friends have clearly felt that it has become more convenient and safe to go out for business and travel in recent years," said Wang Yongcheng. The path to employment is becoming increasingly broad - nowadays, people with disabilities have skill counselors such as massage trainers, music teachers, and computer trainers, and traditional employment restrictions are constantly being broken. In Fujian, there are blind people who have become masters of tea cultivation through touch and smell. By touching tea leaves with their fingertips, they can distinguish between good and bad quality, "said Wang Yongcheng. Such stories are no longer just isolated cases. The "bridge" of communication has become increasingly smooth - in recent years, over 3000 websites and mobile apps closely related to the lives of people with disabilities have been renovated, and accessible functions have been launched to cover high-frequency scenarios such as news and shopping, helping people with disabilities overcome the "digital divide". By installing a software on his phone, he can hear all the content on the screen and write articles with voice input, "Wang Yongcheng said to the reporter with a smile." Look, isn't it fast for me to reply to your WeChat? "On the road to advocating for the disabled community, Wang Yongcheng is both a promoter and a beneficiary. In 2023, he received a response to the representative's suggestion for the Braille version; In 2024, the Braille version of the government work report will be presented at the Two Sessions; In 2025, the draft amendment to the Representative Law specifically stipulates that when representatives with physical disabilities or other mobility impairments perform their duties, relevant departments should provide necessary assistance and care as needed... "There is unexpected warmth every year, and this year is no exception. ”Wang Yongcheng said that the conference management team has specially installed a simplified voice package for his tablet computer. The conference agenda and materials no longer need to be read by someone else, and can be listened to with simple voice control. Earth shattering, this is my biggest feeling about the changes in the lives of people with disabilities. ”Wang Yongcheng stated that every subtle change is a result of the country's deep concern for people with disabilities, and it is the intention of policies from "implementation" to "detailed implementation". He will also continue to move forward with this warmth, go deep into the grassroots to listen to the voices of the disabled community, and let the sunshine of accessibility shine into more corners. Grassroots governance and the transformation of convenient services - "Folding convenient stools have been added to the corridors" Representative Yang Miaomiao: Grassroots governance needs to do small things and practical things well. In recent months, several old residential areas in the old urban area of Bengbu City, Anhui Province have added small folding convenient stools to the corridors. In the past, elderly people had to support the railing step by step when going downstairs; Now, when I'm tired from walking, I pull open the folding stool and take a rest, making the way downstairs much easier. These inconspicuous folding stools not only solve the problem of elderly people having difficulty going downstairs, but also serve as a warm microcosm in grassroots governance. The implementation of this measure cannot be separated from the observation and promotion of Yang Miaomiao, a National People's Congress representative and driver of Route 107 of Bengbu Bus Group. Yang Miaomiao is a bus driver with 30 years of driving experience, and the bus compartment is her window to understand people's livelihoods. She shuttles through the streets and alleys of the city every day, always able to capture people's demands from their casual conversations. After being elected as a representative of the National People's Congress in 2023, she paid more attention to the urgent difficulties and worries in the lives of the masses. She used her rest time to chat with the elderly and collected public opinions through casual conversations, allowing the tentacles of grassroots governance to penetrate into the lives of the masses. Now, the elderly can go downstairs. ”Yang Miaomiao introduced that, for example, the Youth Street Tongleyuan Community's large platform community is a bit special - residents need to climb two flights of stairs first to reach an open large platform, and above the platform is the residential building. This means that even elderly people living on the first floor have to climb stairs to get home. Therefore, elderly people with limited mobility are often "trapped" at home. It would be great if there was an elevator, "Yang Miaomiao and community workers took active action after learning about the urgent wishes of the elderly. Faced with disagreements among residents and difficulties in raising funds, they went door-to-door to solicit opinions and repeatedly negotiated and communicated. Yang Miaomiao also took advantage of daily interactions with the elderly to repeatedly explain the details and benefits of installing elevators. In the end, all residents of the building reached a consensus and jointly invested. In June 2024, the elevator was successfully completed and put into use. Many elderly people who moved to their children's homes due to the inconvenience of going downstairs have returned to familiar old residential areas. The smiles of the elderly have noticeably increased. What impressed Yang Miaomiao the most was an elderly person who used to sit in a wheelchair all year round and had an introverted personality. Now, he often goes to the community garden for activities and sometimes sings along with everyone. For residents of buildings who are unable to install elevators due to their close proximity and limited layout, Yang Miaomiao and community workers have always been concerned. During a volunteer service, she discovered that an elderly person had placed a broken chair discarded by residents during their move around the corner of the hallway. When they got tired from going up and down the stairs, they sat down to rest. This scene inspired her. In order not to affect residents' access, Yang Miaomiao proposed installing foldable stools in the hallway, nailed to the wall, which can be pulled open when in use and retracted when not in use, without occupying public space. This idea was unanimously approved as soon as it was proposed at the community council meeting. Every time Yang Miaomiao sees elderly people using folding stools, she is touched - from the renovation of old residential areas, to door-to-door companionship and warm greetings, to the small repairs that can be done without spending too much money. Grassroots governance is composed of countless small things that are close to life. Yang Miaomiao believes that refinement and precision are the key to grassroots governance. Doing small things and doing practical things well is the most weighty answer to governance. Cultural Inheritance and Renewal of Cultural Context - "Young People Take the Initiative to Learn" Representative Li Li: Continuously Increasing the Inheritance and Dissemination of National Culture "The changes in recent years have been really significant, and the most intuitive feeling is that in the past, we were asking others to learn, but now young people are taking the initiative to learn. ”Li Li, a National People's Congress representative and inheritor of Buyi ethnic costumes intangible cultural heritage, sighed. In Buyi Village, Qinglong, Guizhou, old embroidery pieces that were once considered as antiques have become popular cultural treasures. Young people who have gone out to work are returning home to learn embroidery, and ethnic costumes are sold all over the country through live streaming rooms... Such a scene, in the past, Li Li couldn't even imagine. Li Li has been studying with his mother since childhood
