"… Decades of history have proved that the best way to solve rural problems and the gap between urban and rural areas is not to invest huge resources in rural areas, but to reduce the rural population as much as possible and turn farmers from a way of life into industrial workers. In the Ninth Five-Year Plan, we should strengthen areas that are not suitable for agriculture, and try our best to complete it in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Guangdong and other areas … "
"… Banks should provide more services to the people and stimulate the flow of money …"
…
Qi Rui listened to these serious but inexplicable contents and felt a little uneasy. Ten or even twenty years ago, he could still understand the content when he heard about the direction of the country's development. Twenty years later, Qi Rui felt that his understanding of society had improved a lot, and the direction of the country's development had become a problem for him.
It was better to finish this boring meeting quickly and go back to North America to start the construction of the armored forces. Qi Rui had this thought in his mind. When it was time to vote, Qi Rui found that there were many people with this attitude. In the face of complex reasons for policy-making, people could understand part of it, but not all of it. It was too difficult to forcibly understand the basis of making these policies, and it was easier to give up thinking.
Of course, the deputies could do this, because the operational part of their work was to supervise the implementation, and the implementation goals were written in black and white. As a member of the Central Committee, Qi Rui couldn't completely go with the flow. The reasons for policy-making would never be passed here.
In the face of strong pressure, Ziyang didn't flinch at all. He said bluntly, "Many comrades don't understand the capitalization of business operations, and I will give a special explanation here. First of all, our finance has been in an unhealthy situation for years. I think I have explained before that the central and local finance have huge tax problems. The local governments have arbitrarily collected taxes and fees, and almost all the people are angry. I don't think the comrades don't know. In addition to these, a large number of fake and inferior products have appeared. Some time ago, we tried to have the leaders go to shopping places that people often go to. I think the comrades should be very satisfied, right? "
At the mention of the shopping, there was a burst of laughter in the originally nervous meeting room. His Majesty Vézé said that no investigation, no right to speak. This was usually used as a slogan because it was King Vézé who was in charge of the investigation at that time. Over the years, His Majesty Vézé had gradually retired from his leadership position, and the burden had fallen on his comrades. Thus, His Majesty's words had finally been put to use.
There was a lot of opposition in society to the problem of counterfeit and shoddy products, but the high and mighty comrades in the Central Committee did not feel it at all. When they personally went to buy things from the stalls, many people suddenly realized how rampant shoddy products were. Those things that were so cheap that people couldn't help but pay for them had a terrible price-performance ratio.
A committee member bought a pair of shoes and wore them to complete the task assigned by the organization. It wasn't a big deal at first, but when he started walking around the office building, he forgot about it. He bought it in the morning market, and the sole of the shoe fell off when he was eating at the cafeteria. It wasn't the heel, but the sole of the shoe that fell off. His helpless posture of sitting barefooted on the chair and waiting for his secretary to take out his old shoes had once become the target of ridicule.
After doing this kind of practical work for a while, the members of the Central Committee became much more grounded. Now that Ziyang continued to raise the practical problem, the scene was immediately calmed down. The comrades in charge of the various ministries and commissions in charge of the central enterprises kept their mouths shut, and the committee members in charge of the provinces all revealed unhappy expressions.
Ziyang said loudly, "Times have changed. After the iron and blood policy ended, there was a need to introduce an elimination mechanism. An industry can stand for eternity, but it can't remain the same for eternity. In fact, has every industry been the same for decades? We all know very well that the industry is also constantly changing. "
It was unknown whether these words moved others, but at least they moved Qi Rui. The history of the Liberation Army was a history of drastic changes. In just over 50 years, the Liberation Army had experienced at least three great changes, and new changes were in the process of being born. Qi Rui, who had been fully involved in the establishment of the motorized infantry, knew very well what the great changes in the near future meant.
A voice full of mockery came from the audience. "Even if we want to change, we can't take the capitalist road."
Buzz! There was a sudden uproar in the venue. The one who spoke was Shen Xin. Shen Xin's words did indeed represent the thoughts of many comrades. Many people felt angry at the thought that private capital might be on an equal footing with state-owned capital in state-owned enterprises.
Perhaps he had long been accustomed to Shen Xin's attacks, Ziyang responded loudly, "Comrades, I think everyone is very clear that we now need to establish a more efficient system. The previous command-style governance has indeed played a great role, and it will continue to play a role in many places in the future. But overall, this kind of command is no longer appropriate. How much responsibility are the comrades who gave the command willing to bear? If they don't bear that much responsibility, there will be problems with the command-style governance itself. "
Hey! Hey! Do you need to be so straightforward? As a soldier, Qi Rui couldn't help but mutter in his heart. Whether power and responsibility were balanced was a frequently discussed issue in the past few years. Everyone wanted unlimited power, and no one wanted to bear any responsibility. Therefore, Qi Rui seemed to remember that this discussion was carried out by his father, Vézé, on "Vézé's Weekend Talk." With "Vézé's Weekend Talk" off the air, this discussion became a very sensitive issue. Because when many officials heard this, they would have an extreme reaction of "Who are you talking about?"
"If you can't accomplish it, you'll be beheaded. If you mess it up, you'll be killed. It's okay to say this when you're angry, but we all know that it's not feasible at all. Isn't the foundation of scientific socialism science? Isn't it materialism? Isn't it the truth? Isn't it democracy? If our political philosophy is based on materialism, science, and democracy, then it should be changed … "Ziyang completely ignored the strong emotions of many comrades below and spoke with confidence.
Ever since Qi Rui became a soldier, he had been far away from the center of power, so this kind of extremely high-class speech had a strong impact on him. Although his father, Vézé, often talked about things that Qi Rui couldn't even refute, as a father, what Vézé said lacked appeal. Qi Rui knew that his father, Vézé, was a man of great executive ability. He could bear the responsibility that others didn't dare to bear. Just like the design of the motorized infantry and armored forces, as long as Vézé was involved, Qi Rui didn't have to worry about the direction going wrong, and he didn't have to worry about the matter ultimately screwing up. Qi Rui believed that as long as he followed his father, Vézé, everyone except the enemy would have a good ending.
His father, Vézé, was great. He even surpassed the great and entered the realm of divinity. But this kind of person gave others the feeling of great pressure, right? Qi Rui felt that facing his father was very stressful, and Qi Rui found that the people around him felt the same. When his father stepped down from the core of politics, Qi Rui felt that everyone seemed to be happier. Even in this seemingly tense situation, Qi Rui actually felt quite happy. If it was his father, Vézé, who presided over the meeting, there would probably be only orders and obedience left in the meeting room.
After a round of theoretical arguments, the Central Committee finally had to face reality. First was the tax issue. How should the central and local governments divide the tax, and how to complete it. This practical problem became an important topic of discussion in 1910.
When the matter was finally discussed to the end of the meeting, Qi Rui also felt a kind of joy of liberation. He immediately took valuable information and booked a plane from Beijing to Hakodate. The aviation industry was gradually rising, and some people dared to take the plane across the ocean. But generally speaking, people still hoped to be able to take the transportation that they thought was reliable. Qi Rui was not too radical.
A week later, Qi Rui appeared in his living room. Ten years ago, this trip would have taken at least three weeks. Qi Rui's wife, Bu Ran, was very happy to tell Qi Rui that he could come back so soon, and then Bu Ran was not very happy to see Qi Rui plunge into work.
As a member of the Military Commission, Qi Rui had to lead the work of the North American theater of operations. As a representative of the People's Congress, Qi Rui also had to be responsible for promoting government policies. For example, the original Min dynasty had one day off every five days. Six days a week. In the Nine Five Plan, the Min dynasty would implement two days off every five days, and a week would become seven days. Then this week would coincide with a week. As a representative of the People's Congress, Qi Rui also had to be responsible for explaining the difference between the two.
This news was quite surprising to the comrades in North America. After the implementation of the eight-hour working day, the forty-hour working week was widely known, but why did it have two days off every five days was beyond everyone's imagination. Just as Qi Rui explained to his comrades according to the book, Qi Rui's father, Vézé, said to the heads of the three TV production companies in Nanjing, Wuhan, and Shanghai, "Increasing the rest time is helpful to social stability and improving the quality of life of everyone."
After Vézé finished, the heads of the three companies stared at the great emperor Vézé in confusion. "When it's a day off every five days, you're probably in a hurry to deal with the things that have accumulated for five days. If it's a day off every five days, I think you'll probably have at least half a day to yourself. "Vézé continued to explain.
Without investigation, they had no right to speak. Those who had not experienced the experience of one day off every five days were still speechless. So Vézé continued, "Two days off every five days can make the sales of TV soar, I can guarantee you this."
