　　Zhongxin. com, Sichuan News, January 24th (Reporter He Yuqing) The reporter learned from the Sichuan Historical Society’s Sichuan Oral History Committee on the 24th that Dong Jidu, a master chef of China, former head chef of Jingchengyuan Restaurant of Chengdu Catering Company and co-chairman of the Association’s professional committee, died in Chengdu at 18: 00 on January 23rd, 2023, at the age of 79.

　　This culinary master who wrote in the Annals of Sichuan Cuisine is not only proficient in Sichuan cuisine, but also bypasses western food and western pastry technology. His representative dishes include poached squid, dried fish wings, preserved chrysanthemum abalone, dried deer tendon, pigeon eggs with hoof swallows, and young chicken tofu pudding.

　　Dong Jidu went to Chengdu Yaohua Western Food Department as an apprentice in 1961, and studied in Yulong Restaurant Chef Training Class in 1964, under the guidance of famous chef Xie Shaoyun. Later, I worked as a chef in Rong Paradise and Yaohua Restaurant. In 1979, he was admitted to Chengdu Senior Chef Training Course. After graduation in 1981, he was assigned to work in Jingchengyuan as a chef, and studied under the famous teacher Liu Duyun. During this period, he went to Jingchengyuan Restaurant in New Jersey, USA as a chef for two years in 1983. After returning to China, he also served as a professional teacher of Sichuan cuisine training class of the city catering company, and participated in the compilation of several Sichuan cuisine cooking textbooks. He has participated in the evaluation of Chengdu chefs’ titles for many times and was awarded the title of Chinese Senior Cooker Appraiser.

　　In recent years, many Sichuan cuisine masters who witnessed the development history of Sichuan cuisine have passed away one after another. In order to carry out the rescue excavation of Sichuan cuisine culture and promote Sichuan cuisine to the world better, the Sichuan Historical Society’s Sichuan Oral History Committee was established in November 2022. Dong Jidu is also one of the co-chairs of the Sichuan Historical Society’s Sichuan Oral History Committee.

　　In an interview with Dong Jidu recorded by the Special Committee on Oral History of Sichuan Cuisine of Sichuan Historical Society, this Sichuan cuisine master once revealed "the secret of learning to cook Sichuan cuisine"-"If you want to learn technology, go to the place where the old masters drink morning tea".

　　Dong Jidu recalled that there was a Caotangzi tea shop in Dajin Street, Chengdu, where masters such as Liu Duyun, Zhang Songyun, Ceng Guohua and Mao Qicheng loved to drink tea. He used to go to the tea shop with Wang Kaifa and Li Defu in the morning to have tea with the grandfathers, and listen to their dragon gate array of Sichuan cuisine. At that time, Zhang Songyun had a sentence that impressed Dong Jidu-"In any case, we should make the best use of our raw materials and not waste them".

　　In 1983, 39-year-old Dong Jidu was sent to Jingchengyuan, New Jersey, USA as a chef. At that time, Wang Development was also working as a chef in the American Paradise. On vacation, Dong Jidu hitchhiked to Rongyuan to discuss cooking with Wang Kaifa, and they often discussed it late into the night.

　　"The departure of Master Dong Jidu makes us feel that the oral history of Sichuan cuisine is imminent, and it is necessary to race against time to record and preserve the cooking essence of more Sichuan cuisine masters in time." Li Zuomin, Secretary-General of the Special Committee on Oral History of Sichuan Cuisine, said that Dong Jidu was very supportive of oral history before his death, and donated the Sichuan Cuisine books and used Sichuan Cuisine utensils he participated in, leaving his mark on the development history of Sichuan Cuisine.

　　　　　　 CCTV News:The fall of corrupt officials makes people happy, but some people are not happy — — That is the relatives of individual stubborn corrupt officials. These people don’t miss any opportunity, as long as they can escape legal sanctions and fish people out, they will do anything desperate. However, the mirage will eventually dissipate, leaving only the cold reality.

　　　　　　 Yan Yongxi, the former deputy head of Mentougou District, Beijing, who was rated as "the most greedy in Beijing" by the media, was double-checked by CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection on August 4, 2009 for alleged corruption. Yan Yongxi’s son was introduced and found his classmate’s father, Yin, to help "fish people" and promised to provide Yin with the cost of dredging the relationship. Yin also vowed that he knew people in CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection who could get Yan Yongxi out, and promised not to be sentenced. Subsequently, Yan Yongxi’s son provided him with more than 3.28 million yuan from August 2009 to April 2010.

　　　　　　 On January 12, 2011, Yan Yongxi was tried in Beijing No.1 Intermediate People’s Court. On September 16, 2011, Yan Yongxi’s case was pronounced in the first instance and Yan Yongxi was sentenced to life imprisonment. After Yan Yongxi appealed, the Beijing High Court upheld the original judgment.

　　　　　　 Everything is settled, and there is no possibility of change. Where is Yin, who once claimed to be exempted from criminal punishment?

　　　　　　 It turned out that as early as mid-April 2010, after Yin got 3.28 million yuan, Yan Yongxi’s son could no longer contact him. At this point, the fact that Yan Yongxi’s son was defrauded for "fishing" his father finally surfaced.

　　　　　　 After investigation, it was found that Yin was detained for contract fraud in July 2010 and sentenced to five years in December 2011.

　　　　　　 After the "fishing people" scam was exposed, Yin was escorted back to Beijing for trial. Yin, 63, argued that he agreed to "fish for people" because he had a friend who was the director of CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection. However, the investigators found that according to the information of this friend provided by Yin, there was no such person in Beijing.

　　　　　　 Compared with the lady below, Yan Yongxi’s son is just "dwarfed". After hearing the verdict of her husband’s case, the wife suddenly realized that she had been cheated, which really made people laugh and cry.

　　　　　　 Li Dingrong took bribes of more than 3 million, and his wife spent 7.5 million "fishing for her husband".

　　　　　　 In 2012, Li Dingrong, the former deputy director of Shajing Sub-district Office in Bao ‘an District, Shenzhen, was arrested for accepting bribes. His wife spent 7.5 million yuan to entrust her husband, but Li Dingrong was still sentenced to 13 years in prison.

　　　　　　 After receiving the verdict, his wife felt cheated and called the police, and Wang Mosheng, whom she entrusted, was arrested. Subsequently, Wang Mosheng was tried for alleged fraud, but he did not plead guilty during the trial, saying that most of the money was transferred to another person who claimed to have the ability to do this.

　　　　　　 After arriving at the case, Li confessed that the middleman tried to hook up with Zhu Mingguo, then secretary of the Political and Legal Committee of Guangdong Provincial Committee. However, Li Dingrong’s case is more complicated. He and Zhu Mingguo are just old colleagues many years ago, and they dare not find Zhu Mingguo on this matter.

　　　　　　 It is reported that Li Dingrong was found to have accepted bribes of 3.738 million yuan.

　　　　　　 Compared with Li Dingrong’s wife who was defrauded of 7.5 million for "fishing for people", another person was cheated for "fishing for people", and the amount of fraud was staggering.

　　　　　　 The son of "2 billion village officials" in Shenzhen was cheated of 27 million yuan for spending money to get his father.

　　　　　　 On November 25, 2012, netizens posted that Zhou Weisi, a village cadre of Shenzhen Nanlian Community, was sitting on huge assets, claiming that he owned more than 80 private houses, villas, factories and buildings, and more than 20 luxury cars, with estimated assets exceeding 2 billion yuan.

　　　　　　 Since then, the survey shows that there are as many as 76 houses declared by Zhou Weisi’s family, which is not much different from the net posts.

　　　　　　 On February 26, 2014, Zhou Weisi was charged with three counts of suspected bribery, non-state staff bribery and unit bribery, involving a total amount of over 50 million yuan.

Zhou Weisi was tried (middle)

　　　　　　 According to informed sources, after Zhou Weisi was controlled, a relative found Zhou Weisi’s son and said that he knew Luo, who worked in a "secret department", and could release Zhou Weisi on bail pending trial. In January 2013, this relative arranged for Zhou Weisi’s son to meet with Luo. Because the time between Zhou Weisi’s being reported by netizens and being controlled is very short, the incident happened suddenly, and his family members were very flustered, and they didn’t know what to do. In addition, the introducer is a relative, so Zhou Weisi’s son did not doubt Luo’s identity. At the same time, Luo boasted about Haikou, claiming that he had excellent relations with senior officials and would certainly get things done. Subsequently, the two sides hit it off, and Zhou Weisi’s son invested 30 million yuan, paying 20 million yuan first to help Luo "fish people".

　　　　　　 However, the huge efforts have not been rewarded. Zhou Weisi’s bail pending trial was delayed, while Luo Mou frequently shirked and lied that he was still mediating. In April 2013, Luo claimed to have found a "confidential department VIP" Xu, who could complete the task of "fishing for people". The son of Zhou Weisi, who was in an urgent mood, did not think deeply at all, and then handed over 7 million yuan to Luo.

　　　　　　 In February 2013, Zhou Weisi was arrested on suspicion of accepting bribes and bribery. The case lasted until September 2013, and comprehensive information showed that Zhou Weisi was not released on bail pending trial. In the same month, Zhou Weisi’s son, who was aware of being cheated, reported the case to the police. According to the police involved in the investigation, Luo and Xu were suspected of fictional identity fraud.

Zhou Weisi’s son was cheated.

　　　　　　 Through the above three cases, we will find that the liar’s technique is not clever, but it is precisely by grasping the victim’s psychology that the liar is unscrupulous and commits fraud. In addition, the victims only wake up after things have not been done and find themselves cheated.

　　　　　　 The hidden rules of "fishing for people" in officialdom, courts and public security bureaus have been severely attacked.

　　　　　　 Why are some relatives convinced that they can successfully "fish for people" by finding relationships and asking for help after corrupt officials fall? That’s because there are such people who have no king’s law and take money to "fish for people" without authorization.

　　　　　　 For example, Cao Jianliao, the former deputy mayor of Guangzhou, abused his power to collect money crazily during his tenure in Tianhe, Haizhu and Zengcheng districts of Guangzhou, and was suspected of taking bribes of nearly 80 million yuan. In the case of Cao Jianliao, Wu Bingqian, a businessman, was investigated by relevant departments in Haizhu District of Guangzhou for bribing others. With the help of Cao Jianliao, then secretary of Haizhu District Party Committee, Wu Bingqian was not only exonerated from criminal responsibility, but also became a representative of Guangzhou Municipal People’s Congress and got the land he wanted.

In 2016, Cao Jianliao, former vice mayor of Guangzhou, was tried in the criminal trial area of Shenzhen Intermediate People’s Court.

　　　　　　 Huang Changrong, Deputy Secretary and Vice President of the former Party Group of Shenzhen Longgang District People’s Court. When investigated in 2014, investigators found that Huang Changrong directly instructed the judge to sentence a person involved in the case to probation after receiving the money from the person in charge of the law firm.

　　　　　　 Wu Zhengyang, former member of the Standing Committee of the County Committee of Jiujiang, Jiangxi Province, secretary of the Political and Legal Committee and director of the public security bureau, once served as member of the Standing Committee of Lushan District Committee of Jiujiang City and director of the district public security bureau. In March 2013, Jiujiang Intermediate People’s Court made a judgment, and the defendant Wu Zhengyang ignored the national laws and relevant regulations, and committed crimes such as corruption, bribery and bending the law. He was sentenced to 13 years in prison for several crimes. During the investigation, the investigators found that during his tenure as the director of Lushan District Public Security Bureau and Jiujiang County Public Security Bureau, Wu Zhengyang accepted bribes and "fished for people" in 22 cases, involving 28 people. Yan, who has a good personal relationship with Wu Zhengyang, asked Wu Zhengyang for help for 23 times in several years in order to reduce the punishment imposed on himself and his friends by relevant law enforcement agencies and departments, and gave Wu Zhengyang a total of more than 1 million yuan.

　　　　　　 According to the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the people hate corruption most, and corruption is the biggest threat to the Communist Party of China (CPC). Only with the tenacity and persistence of anti-corruption on the road forever, deepening the treatment of both the symptoms and the root causes, ensuring the integrity of cadres, the clean government and the clear politics, can we jump out of the historical cycle rate and ensure the long-term stability of the party and the country. At present, the situation of the anti-corruption struggle is still severe and complicated, and the determination to consolidate the overwhelming situation and win the overwhelming victory must be rock-solid.We must adhere to no-forbidden zone, full coverage and zero tolerance, insist on heavy containment, strong pressure and long-term shock, insist on bribery and bribery together, and resolutely prevent the formation of interest groups within the party.Establish an inspection system in city and county party committees and intensify efforts to rectify corruption around the masses. No matter where the corrupt elements flee, they must be arrested and brought to justice. Promote anti-corruption national legislation and build a reporting platform covering the discipline inspection and supervision system. Strengthen the shock of not daring to rot, fasten the cage that can’t rot, enhance the consciousness of not wanting to rot, and exchange Haiyan Heqing and Langlang Gankun through unremitting efforts.

　　On August 9, 2008, the conflict in Georgia escalated. This TV photo taken on August 8 shows that Russian troops are heading for Tskhinvali, the capital of South Ossetia, Georgia. From the evening of the 7th to the morning of the 8th, there was another armed conflict between Georgian army and armed personnel of South Ossetia Autonomous Prefecture near Tskhinvali. Russian TV reported earlier on the 8th that Russian troops and tanks entered South Ossetia on the same day. On the evening of the 8th, Georgian President Saakashvili delivered a televised speech to the people, saying that Georgian troops had completely controlled Tskhinvali, the capital of South Ossetia.

　　For more than a decade, the tense crisis between the two countries has occurred from time to time. However, every time I saw "dark clouds gathering", "rain" did not come down.

　　Since the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the contradictions, conflicts and confrontations between Russia and Georgia, two newly born countries, have almost never stopped, and there is an increasingly tense trend. From April to May, 2008, because the Georgian unmanned reconnaissance plane was shot down by the Abkhaz military in China, the government became furious and began to station a large number of troops in areas adjacent to Abkhazia, while Russia increased its peacekeeping forces to Abkhazia, claiming to severely respond to the possible aggression by Georgia. The two sides are so tense that some people describe the crisis situation of Russia-Georgia relations as "near the state of war" For more than a decade, similar situations have often occurred between the two countries. However, every time I saw "dark clouds gathering", "rain" did not come down.

　　The basic background of the relationship between the two countries

　　The Caucasus Mountains straddle the Black Sea and Caspian Sea from northwest to southeast, forming a part of the dividing line between Europe and Asia. The relationship between nations and countries on the north and south sides of the mountain range is complex and special. The northern part of the Caucasus Mountains is called the Inner Caucasus or the North Caucasus, and now it belongs to the southern region of Russia. There are North Ossetia-Alain Autonomous Republic and Ingushetia Republic, which have good relations with the Russian central government, Chechen Republic, which once had bad relations with the Russian central government, and Caraccia I-Celka Republic, Kabardino-Balkar Republic and Dagestan Republic. The south of the Caucasus is called Transcaucasia, also called South Caucasus, and there are three countries-Georgia with Orthodox Christianity as the main belief, Armenia with traditional Christianity as the main belief, and Azerbaijan with Islam and close ties with Iran. The Caucasus Mountains divide Eurasia into two parts, and it is also divided into two parts by different nationalities and countries, torn by different civilizations, different nationalities and different powers.

　　One is Abkhazia, which has close ties with Russia.

　　Among the three countries in Transcaucasia, Georgia has the most tense relationship with Russia. Georgia is a small country, with a land area of 0.41% of that of Russia. At the beginning of 2006, the total population was 3.1% of that of Russia. Why is the relationship between two countries with such a huge difference in size tense? There are undoubtedly many reasons, among which the most direct one is that Abkhazia and South Ossetia in Georgia are too close to Russia.

　　Abkhazia is an autonomous Republic of Georgia, located on the Black Sea in northwest Georgia. Its capital is the coastal city of Sukhumi, which is very close to Sochi, a health resort in southern Russia. During the Soviet period, Stalin and other leaders built villas in Sochi. Economically, Sukhumi was the main producing area of tea and citrus in czarist Russia and Soviet Union. Abkhazia and the Black Sea coastal areas in southwestern Russia belong to a regional economic circle. In addition, Abkhazians converted to Christianity as early as the 6th century A.D., and were influenced by Islam after the rise of the Ottoman Empire in the 11th century, which made them closer to the North Caucasians in history, language and culture. Abkhazia’s economic and cultural exchanges with Russia are far closer than those with Tbilisi, the center of Georgia in the mountains. Because Abkhazians have a long-term pro-Russian tendency, Georgia often adopts repressive policies against them in language, culture and ethnic policies. Shortly after the disintegration of the Soviet Union and the independence of Georgia, Abkhazia also declared its independence in July 1992, and the Georgian central authorities sent troops to station, which triggered an armed conflict that lasted for more than a year, causing tens of thousands of casualties and half of the residents fleeing their hometowns. Under the mediation of Russia and the international community, the two parties to the conflict signed a ceasefire agreement in Moscow in May 1994. According to this agreement, Russian troops entered Abkhazia in the name of the CIS peacekeeping force. Since then, Russia has strengthened its ties with Abkhazia in various ways, such as simplifying the procedures for Abkhazians to join Russian nationality and reopening the railway to Sukhumi.Georgia imposed an economic blockade and embargo on Abkhazia. To this day, it is still the arena between Russia and Georgia.

　　One is South Ossetia, which has a love affair with Russia.

　　The close relationship between Ossetia and Russia is different from that in Abkhazia. Ossetia is divided into north and south. During the Soviet period, North Ossetia was originally only a district belonging to the Gore Autonomous Republic, but its status continued to improve, and it was upgraded to an autonomous prefecture and an autonomous Republic in 1924 and 1936. After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, North Ossetia was upgraded to a republic of the Russian Federation.

　　South Ossetia is far behind its northern brothers in status. During the Soviet Union, although South Ossetia had autonomous status, it was only an autonomous prefecture of Georgia in administrative division. After Georgia’s independence, it is still an autonomous prefecture. Therefore, South Ossetia has always sought an independent status on an equal footing with Georgia and is not subject to the jurisdiction of the Georgian central government. As early as 1989, South Ossetia had an open conflict with the Georgian government, which lasted until the summer of 1992, causing a large number of casualties. In the meantime, South Ossetia not only declared its independence by referendum in January 1990, but also proposed to merge with the Russian Republic of North Ossetia. In June 1992, Russia, Georgia, South Ossetia and North Ossetia held talks on the peaceful settlement of armed conflicts and reached an agreement on a ceasefire, the establishment of a peacekeeping force and a supervisory committee. In July, a 1,500-member peacekeeping force composed of Russia, Georgia and South Ossetia established a security corridor on the border between South Ossetia and Georgia, which actually separated South Ossetia from Georgia. Considering the complicated international relations, Russia has neither recognized the independence of South Ossetia nor supported its merger with North Ossetia, but it has maintained close ties with it in secret. For example, most South Ossetians hold Russian passports, and rubles are widely circulated in the local area. In recent ten years, due to South Ossetia’s secret love for Russia, Russia and Georgia have not only quarreled, but sometimes even threatened each other with force.

　　There are also historical grievances.

　　In addition to the conflict of interests between Abkhazia and South Ossetia, there are historical reasons why the relationship between Russia and Georgia is difficult to straighten out. The relationship between them is extraordinary, and some scholars use the term "once brothers" and today’s "enemies" to describe them. Georgians established their own country earlier than Russia. However, in the first half of the 19th century, the Georgian country was annexed by Tsarist Russia. After the October Revolution, Georgia once declared its independence, but it was soon occupied by the Soviet Red Army. In February 1921, Georgia established the Soviet Socialist Republic, joined the Transcaucasian Soviet Socialist Federal Republic in March 1922, and joined the Soviet Union as a federal member at the end of the same year. In December 1936, Georgia was upgraded to a republic directly under the Soviet Union. Many important Soviet leaders, including Stalin, came from Georgia. Georgia was conquered in czarist Russia and subordinate in Soviet Union, but Georgians always have a lingering feeling of independence. Therefore, before the disintegration of the Soviet Union, Georgia issued a declaration of independence on November 4, 1990 and changed its name to "Republic of Georgia", and officially declared its independence on April 9, 1991. In order to erase the shadow of the past, the new constitution adopted by Georgia in August 1995 named the country "Georgia". After independence, Georgia actively approached the west.

　　Another big country’s gambling table.

　　There are also broader national factors that affect Russia-Georgia relations, that is, Georgia is actually a "gambling disk" for the game between western powers and Russia. Georgia is a small country, but geopolitics is very important. Western countries regard it as a base to squeeze and contain Russia’s strategic space from the south, while Russia, which has lost its traditional spheres of influence such as Central and Eastern Europe, the Balkans and the Baltic Sea, will certainly not easily let the wishful thinking of the West succeed. The great power struggle is reflected in Georgia, that is, the endless political struggle between pro-Russian and pro-Western factions. Behind the so-called "color revolution" in 2003 and the large-scale anti-government demonstrations in 2007, we can see the shadow of western countries and Russia. In order to squeeze out Russia, after two rounds of eastward expansion in 1997 and 2002, NATO began to brew a third round of eastward expansion this year. One of its main targets is Georgia, and nearly 73% of the people in Georgia want to join NATO. If Georgia and Ukraine join in again, NATO will push its forward position to the southwest and south of Russia, and form an encirclement trend in the southwest. Russia is deeply affected by the crisis, and its reaction is relatively strong, and it is considered as a "dangerous signal". Therefore, it not only shows its strength by resuming the routine combat duty flights of long-range strategic bombers over the Atlantic Ocean, the Arctic Ocean, the Pacific Ocean, the Black Sea and the Arctic region, but also threatens NATO and Georgia by increasing peacekeeping troops to Abkhazia and supporting the independence of South Ossetia. Now it seems that,Neither NATO nor Russia will give in, the game will continue, and Georgia’s relations with Russia will be even more difficult to get along with in the situation of internal and external troubles.

　　At present, it seems that it is difficult for Russia-Georgia relations to be fundamentally improved for a while, but it is unlikely that they will completely break down and all-out war will break out. Georgia has close economic ties with Russia, especially in the supply of basic energy such as electricity, oil and natural gas. Russia is now seeking to join the WTO, and Georgia is already a member of the organization. Russia can’t help but care. The situation in Transcaucasia is more complicated, and the relationship between major powers reflected here is also very complicated. For their own security and interests, Russia, western powers and Georgia will not act simply, and the disharmony between Russia and Georgia will continue.
