天津市老同志方放堪称李瑞环同志的“终身秘书”。当年李瑞环同志任天津市委书记、市长时,方放是他的部下。后来李瑞环同志进京,任中共中央政治局常委、全国政协主席,方放经常应召去北京帮忙。如今李瑞环同志退出领导岗位,早已离休在家的方放,又给老市长当起了“业余秘书”。 Fang Fang, an old comrade in Tianjin, called the “secretary of life” comrade Li Ruihuan. When Comrade Li Ruihuan was secretary and mayor of Tianjin, Fang Fang was his subordinate. Later, Comrade Li Ruihuan went to Beijing and was appointed Politburo Standing Committee member and chairman of the CPPCC National Committee. Fang Fang was often called to help Beijing. Today, Comrade Li Ruihuan has withdrawn from leadership positions and Fang Fang Fang, who has already retired from home, has given the former mayor an “amateur secretary.”
