On the road of serving the people. Li Dong's life was one of diligence, generosity and magnanimity. He used practical actions to interpret the responsibilities and responsibilities of young cadres in the new era, and wrote a heroic hymn with his life.
At the critical moment of life and death, sacrificing oneself to save others shows party spirit
In late June 2024, heavy rains continued in Yueyang County, and the flood control situation was extremely severe. On July 1, there were heavy rains. The rainfall in Maotian Town increased sharply. Rockfalls, landslides and other dangers occurred on many roads. Party members and cadres heard about the "flood" and took action to fight on the front line of flood prevention and disaster relief.
At 18:00 on the same day, Li Dong and the town sent Mengcheng Village Party Branch Secretary Xu Shuowen and town transportation specialist Hou Yunfan to the village group to inspect the Shantang Dam and the transfer of people in accordance with the flood prevention arrangements. At 21:06, when they were traveling about 150 meters from the Yangjiapian Hengwu Group to the Zhangshu Group, a flash flood occurred, the stream quickly overflowed the road, and the vehicle was instantly rushed into the river port downstream of the Tiaodong Reservoir.
At the moment of life and death, Li Dong showed the firmness and calmness of a Communist Party member. He quickly observed the situation inside the car and found that the on-board display screen was still bright, so he shouted loudly: "Don't panic, the vehicle is not powered off yet, lower the window and climb out!" Xu Shuowen immediately unfastened his seat belt and tried to get out of the car. He tried to escape through the left window, but due to the narrow window, several attempts failed. At this time, Li Dong did not choose to escape first, but pushed Xu Shuowen hard to help him climb out of the car window and grab the thatch on the shore and successfully landed.
However, the crisis has not been resolved. Li Dong, who had just climbed out of the window, suddenly discovered that Hou Yunfan was still in the car. It turned out that the rear window could not be opened, and the water in the car had reached Hou Yunfan's chest. Li Dong shouted again: "Come to the front row and climb out of the window!" When Hou Yunfan climbed to the front row, Li Dong quickly pulled him out of the car window, pushed him onto the roof of the car, and encouraged him to jump to the shore. . In the end, Hou Yunfan, encouraged by Li Dong, mustered up the courage to jump to the shore and was successfully rescued.
However, when Xu Shuowen and Hou Yunfan looked back, they saw Li Dong and the vehicle being swept away by the torrent. They immediately called town and village cadres to organize search and rescue personnel. But unfortunately, at 15:45 on July 3, when Li Dong's body was salvaged ashore, he had lost his vital signs.
"Don't panic, the vehicle is not powered off yet. Lower the window and climb out!" "Come to the front row and climb out of the window!" These two shouts became the last words of Li Dong, who was also a Communist Party member. A true portrayal of putting others before yourself and sacrificing yourself for others. He used practical actions to fulfill his oath of joining the party to "be ready to sacrifice everything for the party and the people at any time."
Diligent work and professional skills win praise
Li Dong was admitted as a township civil servant in Yueyang County in November 2020 and was assigned to work in the Maotian Town Government. In four years of work, he has experienced four positions: party building officer, organization officer, labor station director, and emergency office director. Every time he takes a new position, he can quickly adapt to the environment, study the business seriously, and become the backbone of the business.
When he was the webmaster of the town labor station, Li Dong was meticulous in his work and treated the masses warmly and thoughtfully. Once, an elderly man with limited mobility came to the town convenience center to handle business. However, due to the cumbersome procedures, he had to go to a Postal Bank outlet to take photos for review. The old man's children have already rushed to the city and cannot accompany him.Seeing that the old man was helpless, Li Dong carried the old man on his back and rushed to the Postal Bank without saying a word. After taking photos and reviewing, he carried the old man back to the convenience center. This kind of thing does not happen once or twice for Li Dong. In order to facilitate the masses, he often borrowed his colleagues' cars to pick up the elderly in the village to handle business, and then sent them home after finishing the work.
In the position of director of the emergency office, Li Dong has demonstrated excellent emergency response capabilities and organizational coordination capabilities. He led the team to conduct in-depth investigation of safety hazards, actively organized emergency drills, and improved the emergency management level of Maotian Town. In the work of flood prevention and disaster relief, he has always been at the forefront, leading the cadres and the masses to fight against disasters and rescue operations, and protected the safety of people's lives and property.
Due to his outstanding work performance, Li Dong was rated as an outstanding member of the annual assessment for three consecutive years and recorded third-class merit once. The County Human Resources and Social Security Bureau, the County Emergency Bureau and other departments have also extended an olive branch to him one after another. When his service period expires, he can enter the bureau through selection channels. However, this young cadre chose to stick to the front line at the grassroots level and use practical actions to fulfill his purpose of serving the people.
He is generous to others, optimistic and heartwarming.
In the eyes of colleagues and friends, Li Dong is an optimistic, cheerful, motivated, generous and enthusiastic big boy. He always had a smile on his face and treated everyone with enthusiasm. His dormitory is everyone's lounge and tea room, and he often invites colleagues to chat and drink tea. No matter how late or busy he is, he will answer the phone and reply to messages instantly, making his colleagues feel very warm.
However, few people know that behind Li Dongguang's back, he has experienced the blow of family changes. His father was involved in a car accident many years ago, resulting in partial paralysis, hearing loss, incontinence of urine and feces, and a lifelong disability. In order to take care of her husband and provide for him to study, the mother could only make a living by doing housework and doing odd jobs. Over the years, she suffered from heart disease, high blood pressure, and other diseases due to overwork. Despite the pressure in life, Li Dong never disclosed his family difficulties to his colleagues. He always talks about "don't be in a hurry", "relax your mind" and "look at it", and infects the people around him with his optimistic and confident mantra.
In his spare time, Li Dong is also keen on public welfare undertakings. After successfully passing the National Legal Practitioner Qualification Examination, he often provided free legal advice and assistance to the people. He also actively participates in volunteer service activities to help people in need solve practical problems. His kind deeds and love won praise and respect from the masses.
Li Dong always puts the safety of the masses at heart and puts the interests of the masses first. He goes deep into the grassroots to understand the needs of the people and actively solves their problems. His office is filled with documents such as statistics on the distribution of disaster relief materials and accounts of households damaged by disasters. He always pays attention to the disaster situation and the living conditions of the people, and sends warmth and care to the people.
A week before he died at work, Li Dong revealed to his best colleagues that he wanted to buy a car. A colleague suggested buying a car, but he said he must buy an SUV because of its high chassis and large space. It is suitable for ordinary people who carry things on their shoulders when visiting villages, and it can also accommodate his father's wheelchair after returning home.
It’s just that he can no longer fulfill this simple wish.
