Struggle for the Cause of Poverty Alleviation to the Last Moment —— In Memory of Huang Xing, Deputy Director of Shiyan Poverty Alleviation Office, Hubei Province

Knowing the news of Huang Xing’s death, Yang Chengrong, a poor household who was nearly 80 years old, burst into tears: "He is a relative of our poor household!"
Huang Xing, deputy director of Shiyan Poverty Alleviation Office, Hubei Province. On February 28th this year, 46-year-old Huang Xing suffered a sudden myocardial infarction after working for several days in a row. He died in the line of duty and fell on the road to poverty alleviation. Recently, the Hubei Provincial Federation of Trade Unions posthumously awarded Huang Xing the Hubei May 1 Labor Medal and called on the majority of trade union cadres to learn from it.
I broke down from overwork and had a heart attack. I went to the hospital with a poverty alleviation manual.
Shiyan Poverty Alleviation Office, Office 4128. The large-scale schematic diagram of the Ten Commandments’ accurate poverty alleviation is still hung in a prominent position on the wall, but it can’t wait to draw its owner.
"He misses the poverty alleviation work every day and always refuses to let himself take a short rest. This time he can finally rest." Xu Hongbo, the chief of general department in the same office as Huang Xing, wiped away tears and said.
In the last 59 days of his life, except for the four-day holiday of the Spring Festival, Huang Xing has been running in the front line of poverty alleviation, including 23 days in northern Shaanxi to participate in the inter-provincial cross-examination of national poverty alleviation and development.
"In northern Shaanxi, there is ice and snow everywhere, and it is about MINUS 20 degrees Celsius outside. Huang Xing enters the village during the day, and he has to work overtime after the group meeting at night, often after 2 am." Zhang Guangming, deputy director of the Poverty Alleviation Office in Maojian District, Shiyan City, Hubei Province, who participated in the assessment with Huang Xing, said that as the deputy head of the assessment team, Huang Xing was not only responsible for routine work, but also responsible for overall planning and summary, which was more arduous than the work of the team members.
Returning to Shiyan from Shaanxi, Huang Xing neglected to rest and continued to work overtime.
"On February 26, two days before his illness, he was still supervising the poverty alleviation assessment in danjiangkou city." Xu Hongbo recalled that on February 27th, Huang Xing came to the office early and worked overtime until about 11 o’clock that evening. Suddenly, he said that his heart was uncomfortable, and Xu Hongbo and his colleagues rushed him to the hospital.
When he went to the hospital, he still had a poverty alleviation manual in his pocket. Xu Hongbo said that in the last few hours of his life, Huang Xing was still asking the doctor: "Can you give me some medicine? I want to go back to work early."
Due to his serious illness, Huang Xing was still unable to recover his vital signs after being rescued in the intensive care unit for more than 10 hours. He died at noon on February 28th at the age of 46. His family left only his 80-year-old frail mother and his daughter who was in the first year of high school.
Take things in the village as your own business.
Daping Village, Maota Township, Maojian District, Shiyan City is the designated contact village of Shiyan Poverty Alleviation Office. As the backbone of the Poverty Alleviation Office, Huang Xing is a frequent visitor in the village.
In the diary, Huang Xing once wrote: "Always remember that I am a party member who serves the people and treats the poor people with sincerity. No matter how busy you are, you can’t forget the poor households! "
But after all, he didn’t wait until Daping Village got rid of poverty.
As one of the 456 poverty-stricken villages in Shiyan City, after three years of poverty alleviation, only 54 households in Daping Village are still out of poverty. According to the plan, the whole village will be listed at the end of this year.
"Without Director Huang, how can we get rid of poverty in our village so smoothly? Our whole village remembers his kindness. " Liu Qinglong, secretary of the Party branch of Daping Village, said that Huang Xing took things in the village as his own business. In late January this year, heavy snow fell in Shiyan, and the greenhouse vegetables in the village were seriously affected. On the day he returned from a business trip in Shaanxi, Huang Xing rushed to the village to discuss disaster relief measures.
"I heard that Director Huang died, and I didn’t sleep a wink all night. Such a good person, how can God let him go! " Standing in front of his new house, Liu Tiane, a poor household, was tearful.
In 2015, Liu Tianqi’s husband died of illness. She had to raise children and pay her husband more than 100,000 yuan in medical debts, which made the originally poor family worse. Huang Xing took the initiative to find the door and formed a helping pair with her to help her find the right thing to do and improve her housing conditions according to relevant policies.
"Making friends with poor families, helping poor households and uprooting poor roots" is an important measure for Shiyan City to promote precision poverty alleviation and precision poverty alleviation. Yang Chengrong, Yu Shiyou, Wang Demei, etc. are all poor households that Huang Xing "married" in the village. Hearing the bad news, they all said it was hard to accept.
There are more "relatives" in poor households, and Huang Xing has less time to spend with his family and children, but his family understands this very well.
After his death, his 15-year-old daughter wrote: "Dad is a conscientious and meticulous person who treats his work and treats his colleagues kindly. Meticulous to me and grandma. He is my hero … …” His old mother is a retired teacher. When talking about her son, the old man said with tears: "He gave his life to the party and the people. He is glorious!"
He is not only working hard, but also an expert in theory.
According to Peng Wenjun, director of Shiyan Poverty Alleviation Office, Huang Xing is an "old ox" on the road to poverty alleviation.
"He has to deal with daily affairs during the day, and he has to stay up late to write various documents when he goes home at night. There is always endless work." Peng Wenjun said.
"He had the opportunity to transfer to other positions in the province or the city, but he declined them one by one. He said that it is a critical moment to get rid of poverty and he must not be a deserter!" Peng Wenjun said.
What makes colleagues admire even more is that Huang Xing is not only working hard, but also an expert in theory.
Having worked for 25 years, Huang Xing has been in the poverty relief office for 22 years, and has been rated as an excellent civil servant for three consecutive years, and has been transferred to the national and provincial poverty relief offices for special work many times. He wrote or participated in the drafting of the Plan for Regional Development and Poverty Alleviation in Qinba Mountain Area (2011— In 2020), the Implementation Plan for Regional Development and Poverty Alleviation in Qinba Mountain Area of Hubei Province and the Decision of Hubei Province on Further Strengthening Poverty Alleviation and Development are also well-known in the poverty alleviation system.
Peng Wenjun introduced that Huang Xing has been responsible for the assessment of precision poverty alleviation for a long time. Since 2014, Shiyan has been rated as excellent for four consecutive years in the assessment of the responsibility system for poverty alleviation work of local party and government in Hubei Province.
"How to fight the tough battle against poverty in the city, how to supervise the implementation of policies, how to consolidate and improve the effect of poverty alleviation, etc., we often discuss and plan together." Peng Wenjun said that in the poverty alleviation office, Huang Xing is his "right hand man" and an example in the eyes of his colleagues.
After Huang Xing’s death, Shiyan Municipal Committee posthumously awarded him the title of "Excellent Communist party member of the whole city" and called on party member cadres in the whole city to learn from Huang Xing.
Zhang Meirong, a colleague of Huang Xing’s before his death, expressed everyone’s voice: "Our generation should carry on the legacy and swear to eradicate poverty!"
