As soon as he took office, Ding Xiaobing quickly overcame his physical and work discomforts and led the company's officers and soldiers to achieve outstanding results with the "team" of the company's party branch. The company was rated as an advanced collective and received awards for meritorious service every year, becoming a "leader" in the Nanjing Military Region. A pacesetter company with the same reputation as the "Sixth Company of Strong Bones". At this time, Ding Xiaobing has been an instructor for four years and is expected to be promoted exceptionally by the end of the year. Just as the military region and army group were preparing to organize their strength to summarize and promote him, a new soldier in the company committed suicide due to mental depression. Ding Xiaobing took full responsibility magnanimously. All of a sudden, various accusations made him unable to hold his head up, and he was transferred to the League Political Department as a propaganda officer. This blow was no less than a blow to Ding Xiaobing. Should he lie down and shrink, or should he stand upright and rise up? The bosses of several companies in Wuxi thought that an opportunity had come, and came to ask him to join, and advised him not to miss the opportunity again. At this time, news also came from my hometown: Go home and you can "reinstate" your original position. Just when everyone felt sorry for him and worried that he would not be able to hold on, Ding Xiaobing still expressed to the party committee as firmly as he did on the battlefield: "It is the party that has given me the support and strength in life, and it is the military uniform that has given me the courage and strength to devote myself to the army." Determination remains unchanged!" Without sighs or tears, he has never done any news reporting. He worked hard to practice his writing skills and conducted in-depth interviews. Within one year, he published more than 100 reports in central and military region-level newspapers and became the "news work" of the military region. Advanced individual”. In 2001, Ding Xiaobing’s regiment went to Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and other places to assist customs supervision tasks. The anti-corruption and anti-change situation in Zhejiang is serious, and front-line leadership needs to be strengthened. Ding Xiaobing, who was the political director at the time, took the initiative to apply to the Youth League Party Committee. Someone advised him that the place is difficult and risky. You have been the director for more than four years. At a critical moment, if you make a mistake, it will affect your promotion. Don't forget the lessons learned from the past. In fact, Ding Xiaobing had no need to take this risk. Firstly, he was not the regimental commander, and secondly, he had been hospitalized in Shanghai for treatment of hydropleural effusion for only a few days. Ding Xiaobing believes that party members and cadres should not think about their own safety first, but should move forward to ensure the party's cause. Therefore, he insisted on guarding the country's gates at the forefront of the fight against smuggling. Ding Xiaobing lost a lot through these choices at this critical moment in his life, but he never changed his mind and had no regrets. On the National Day of October 1, 2004, as a member of the People's Armed Police Force's advanced deeds report group on studying and implementing the important thought of "Three Represents", Ding Xiaobing came to Tiananmen Square early in the morning, where he dreamed of, and solemnly raised his left hand to ** * saluted the national flag with a military salute to express his loyalty to the party. With his incomplete body, he made contributions to the party

2. He always regards doing the party’s cause well as the sacred duty of the Communists. 288 medals and certificates bear witness to his incomplete body. Anyone who has had contact with Ding Xiaobing can feel the spirit and strength of his body that is unwilling to accept mediocrity and never admit defeat. From being an instructor to being a political commissar of the regiment, Ding Xiaobing and the units he led have won a total of 288 medals, certificates and trophies. These truly record Ding Xiaobing's continuous pursuit of self-improvement and pursuit of the cause of the party. Ding Xiaobing has always treasured a bloody bandage. This bandage is a record of his shame. He keeps it to spur and motivate himself. The day after Ding Xiaobing came to the company to take up the position of instructor, the company organized an emergency gathering training. The entire company was gathered, but his backpack had not been packed yet. When he came out last and stood in front of the entire company, he was faced with looks of pity and suspicion. Ding Xiaobing, who had always been strong-willed, had a burning face. Behind his back, the title of "top leader" was quietly circulated, and superior leaders were worried that he would not be able to be the "top leader" of the company. He secretly made up his mind: I will create first-class performance with one hand! In order to practice his work skills well, he started practicing life skills such as holding chopsticks with his left hand, tying his belt, and practicing writing. In order to practice backpacking, he hid in a room alone and used his feet, mouth and left hand at the same time. His fingers were scratched and blood flowed from the corners of his mouth until he was able to punch the backpack at a speed that no one in the company could catch up with him. It didn't take long for Ding Xiaobing to become "good" in all aspects. He was excellent in seven of the eight military subjects and good in one.

During the second exercise on the horizontal bar, he curled up with one hand; when it came to wrist wrestling, no one in the company could break his hand; even when driving a motorcycle, he had "one hand", and no one knows how he controls the right handle throttle. of. When guests come to his home, he prefers to "show off his skills" by slicing and shredding with precise knife skills. It is precisely with his dedication to the party's cause that Ding Xiaobing carries the red flag wherever he goes. He has been an instructor for 4 years, and his company has won first-class collective merit once, second-class collective merit once, and third-class collective merit twice. He was named a "Model Company for Grassroots Construction" and "Model Company for Grassroots Construction" by the group army, and was awarded by Nanjing The military region was rated as "Advanced Unit for Grassroots Construction", the party branch was rated as "Advanced Grassroots Party Organization" by the military region, and individuals were awarded third-class merit once. The People's Liberation Army Daily introduced their experience in front-page headlines under the title "A Good Company Adhering to Comprehensive Construction" and distributed a commentator's article titled "A Flag for Grassroots Construction." The "People's Frontline" newspaper introduced Ding Xiaobing's personal deeds under the title "A Successful Start". Ding Xiaobing

When Ding Xiaobing was a director of the Political Department, he practiced news writing assiduously. When he submitted an article for the first time and received no news, he would write again and submit again, never giving up. Although his first adopted manuscript was revised from more than 1,000 words to only 61 words, he still kept writing. In more than a year, more than 100 of his reports were published by military and civilian newspapers such as "Liberation Army Daily" and "People's Frontline", playing an active role in boosting morale in the guidance work. Two of the reports he wrote won the first prize in the essay competition, and he was named "Advanced Individual in Journalism" by the military region and group army. In December 1993, when he took office as the instructor of the Second Battalion, the battalion had not been able to advance for many years. He started by beating the fighting spirit of the troops and determined to change the backwardness. When the troops went to Danyang Lake Farm for water conservancy construction in Anhui Province, he gathered all the party members in the battalion to form a party member commando team. He served as the commando leader, specializing in picking hard bones to gnaw on, and the construction progress was significantly accelerated. This year, the battalion he led was rated as the "Advanced Construction Battalion" by the division. Since then, it has been rated as "Advanced Camp for Grassroots Construction" by the division for consecutive years and received collective awards from the division. Ding Xiaobing has been the director of the regiment's political department for five years. The political department has been rated as the "Advanced Political Department" by the division every year. In 2001, he was responsible for the customs supervision work at the most risky stations such as Hangzhou, Zhoushan, Taizhou, and Wenzhou. Whether it was hot summer or cold winter, he insisted on inspecting and guiding each station every month, and communicated with cadres Have a heart-to-heart talk, give the superiors guidance and guidance, and visit the relevant customs. Due to long-term stress and fatigue, he fell ill several times while on duty. At the end of the year, one of the two companies he was responsible for was rated as "Advanced Group for Assisting Customs in Implementing Supervision Tasks" by the General Administration of Customs and the Armed Police Headquarters, and the other was recorded as a third-class collective meritorious service. He himself was also rated as "Excellent ***" by the Armed Police Headquarters. "Communist Party Member", the regiment was also rated as "Grassroots Construction Model Corps" by the headquarters for its outstanding performance in customs duty, and was awarded the second-class collective merit. In May 2002, the Political Division received the task of demonstrating the "eight meetings" at the grassroots level to the entire division. At that time, he had pleurisy induced by overexertion, and the doctor insisted that he be hospitalized. In order to facilitate his work, he was in the regimental health team nearby while giving infusions and guiding the team to rehearse. Under his influence, key cadres actively prepared and the demonstration was a complete success. After that, he took his comrades from the agency to study and make the flow chart of the "Eight Meetings" and compiled it into a book, which became a model for the whole division. Ding Xiaobing

In July 2003, a catastrophic flood occurred in the Huaihe River Basin that had not been seen in a century. The 542nd Regiment was ordered to perform flood fighting and rescue tasks. As the political commissar of the regiment, Ding Xiaobing rushes to wherever the flood peak is; he fights wherever the danger is most. On July 17, a huge piping surge suddenly occurred in Wabu Dam in Shouxian County, Anhui Province. Ding Xiaobing was the first to jump into the strong torrent and drove piles with the party members' commando team, leading the county party committee leaders to join the battle. After that, he carried earth and bags with everyone else. While others carried two shovels of earth, he carried four shovels of earth, which lasted four hours. After more than five hours of hard work, the pipe surge was finally blocked and the county was saved. After the fierce battle, Ding Xiaobing's broken arm was in unbearable pain. It turned out that it had been soaked in sewage for a long time, and the sutures of the wound were severely ulcerated, and a small piece of black shrapnel was exposed.

Ding Xiaobing

After becoming the political commissar of the regiment, Ding Xiaobing had greater power, greater responsibilities, and faced more tests. However, he always regarded governing for the people and setting up a monument for the party as the basis for his use of power to perform his duties. guidelines. Ding Xiaobing's father has long since retired from Anhui Hefei Iron and Steel Company, and his mother's employer has long since closed down. She has no income and insurance, and they are both old and sick. Ordinarily, Ding Xiaobing is the leader of the regiment, and his lover Tao Wanzhu is the pharmacist at the division hospital, so he is fully qualified to get some free medicine, but his parents pay for their own medicine. Ding Xiaobing's younger brother and sister-in-law were both laid off due to the company's downturn, and they made a living by selling vegetables in their hometown. Last year, his brother and sister-in-law came all the way to the army to join Ding Xiaobing, saying: "It's hard to do business in my hometown now. Children have to go to school and the elderly need money for medical treatment. You are now the political commissar of the regiment. Your life service center has to buy vegetables anyway." and non-staple food, let me do this business, I guarantee it will be cheaper than others." Facing his younger brother's begging look, Ding Xiaobing patiently explained: "I know the difficulties at home, but the army's surname is Party and not Ding, so I can't use it. The power given by the party is for my own personal gain. I can’t lose my personality even if I am missing an arm! I will use my salary to help my family. You should go back.” The younger brother had no choice but to return to his hometown in tears. Ding Xiaobing's wife, Tao Wanzhu, was a member of the "March 8th Women's Air Ambulance Team" back then. She was older than Ding Xiaobing. Now she is also a cadre of the regiment. Normally, she can send a car to provide protection when she goes out to do business, but she has never used Ding Xiaobing's car to pick her up once. Ding Xiaobing's car has only traveled more than 30,000 kilometers in the three years since it was distributed. She understands her husband and firmly supports him. On sensitive issues at the grassroots level such as soldiers joining the party, taking exams, and promotions, Ding Xiaobing adheres to principles and lets officers and soldiers see the power of the party. In 2004, superiors recommended a quota for one soldier in the 542nd Regiment. After hearing the news, some people asked for favors and found connections. Ding Xiaobing’s speech at the Youth League Party Committee was resounding: Whether the election of cadres Miao Zi is fair or not is not only related to the image of the party, but also to the long-term development of the army. We must select the best. Therefore, the regiment party moved the party committee that studied the performance of soldiers to the training ground, let all officers and soldiers of the regiment supervise, score on the spot, and announce the assessment results on the spot. The four backbone squad leaders recommended by the entire regiment were evaluated on military theory, cultural knowledge, military skills, and on-site defenses. The regiment party committee made a decision on the spot to directly recommend the squad leader with the best overall quality and potential for development. Dry. All the officers and soldiers of the regiment applauded this move. Ding Xiaobing always has deep affection and deep love for the people. No matter where he goes, he always wants to establish the image of the people's army. In July of the year before last, when the troops were fighting floods in Shouxian County, Anhui Province, Ding Xiaobing was on his way back to the station for dinner after inspecting the dangerous situation. He suddenly found some people watching an old lady lying on the roadside. He quickly ordered the driver to reverse the car and quickly put the car back. Lao Zainiang carried her into the car and sent her to the hospital for emergency treatment. From this, Ding Xiaobing also wondered how the people affected by the disaster were living and whether medical care could keep up. Under his organization, the regiment delivered food and mineral water to the tents, and the medical team drove up the embankment to inspect the victims. The people in the disaster area felt the tradition of the people's army from Ding Xiaobing and saw the image of the party from the troops. Ding Xiaobing

Ding Xiaobing often said: As a party member and cadre, you must not only be a good practitioner of the party's ideals and beliefs, but also a good disseminator of the party's advanced ideas and innovative theories. In the past 20 years, Ding Xiaobing has given more than 500 lectures to people inside and outside the military and all walks of life, with a direct audience of nearly 400,000 people. Influenced by his deeds, at most there were more than 20 Young Pioneers schools named after him across the country, and there are still 4 left. The southern one is Guilin Zhonghua Road Primary School, and the northernmost one is Beijing Hujialou Middle School. In early December 2004, a scholar who had just returned from studying in the United States said that the reason why I gave up the superior conditions abroad and came back to serve the motherland was the "Fire of Faith" report given to us by Ding Xiaobing in high school, which ignited the fire of faith. The fire kept burning in my chest.

What Ding Xiaobing thinks is that Ma Chao's family is relatively poor in rural Henan, and the female nurse's family is rich. Her hometown of Changzhou is economically developed and provides good care. If Ma Chao settles in Changzhou, he will be guaranteed medical treatment. In November last year, before Ma Chao was discharged from the army, Ding Xiaobing actively contacted the superior health department to classify him as disabled, and specially sent cadres to Ma Chao's hometown and Changzhou City to help Ma Chao go through the household registration file transfer procedures. On the day Ma Chao left the team, Ding Xiaobing asked someone to give 300 yuan to Ma Chao in the name of the organization. Ma Chao left the army happily. In 2000, Ding Xiaobing was stationed in the Eighth Company to guide the discharge work, and learned that Li Zuoan, a soldier in the company who was about to retire, was an orphan. Without saying a word, he took out all the 410 yuan he had and gave it to Xiao Li. The soldier was so moved that he burst into tears. After 2001, the wife of Lou Wei, the commander of the third company, died of leukemia. Ding Xiaobing took the lead in donating more than 2,000 yuan to him. Under his influence, the entire regiment's officers and soldiers spontaneously donated 18,000 yuan to him. Since becoming an instructor, Ding Xiaobing has verified that he has donated 50,000 yuan to 67 cadres and soldiers, and most of the donations were for relief in the name of the organization. Ding Xiaobing always pretends to be officers and soldiers in his heart, and the first thing he thinks of when something happens is officers and soldiers. In July last year, after Ding Xiaobing gave a report to the Jiangsu Electric Power Sanatorium near the army, the director asked Ding Xiaobing to have a comprehensive physical examination. Ding Xiaobing readily agreed, but not for himself, but for the soldiers. He thought that there were 7 soldiers with intractable diseases living in the division hospital, but they could not be diagnosed because there was no good equipment for examination. When these seven soldiers enjoyed first-class equipment and first-class expert inspection, they never imagined that this opportunity was given to them by Political Commissar Ding. In November of the previous year, a head of the headquarters came to the regiment to inspect the work and approved the allocation of special funds for Ding Xiaobing to install smart prostheses. Ding Xiaobing felt that it was too much money and was uneasy, so he never implemented this "instruction." In October last year, another head of the headquarters came to the group to guide the work and explicitly approved the allocation of 200,000 yuan for him to install smart prostheses. As soon as the leader left, Ding Xiaobing discussed with the regiment leader Chen Xichun whether the regiment family factory system reform, 18 family members bought out the seniority and still had a shortfall of 200,000 yuan, and whether they could use this money to solve the matter. Ding Xiaobing said sincerely: "This 200,000 yuan can provide employment for 18 family members, and 18 cadres will be less distracted. This is worth it than if I spent it alone!" Captain Chen choked with emotion and said: "How can that be done? "Ding Xiaobing believes that to lead troops for the party, one must lead them so that the party can feel at ease. Therefore, in addition to doing a good job in ideological work and political education, he also always helped the officers and soldiers in critical situations and guided them to take a good path in life. Wang Lishi, the instructor of the fifth company, joined the army with the dream of applying for the military academy. However, failing to pass the exam for two consecutive years completely shattered his dream, and his mood suddenly fell into a low point, and he was depressed all day long. Ding Xiaobing, who was the battalion instructor at the time, would sit with Wang Li and talk about life and ideals whenever he had free time. He inspired him that setbacks are stepping stones in life and there is more than one path to success, which finally made Wang Li cheer up again. Later, because Wang Li was the most outstanding in the whole regiment in work training, he was promoted to a special position and sent to the military academy. During Ding Xiaobing's tenure as an instructor and instructor, with his education and help, 28 soldiers with bad habits were transformed, more than 30 soldiers were admitted to the military academy, and 17 soldiers were directly promoted.
