Chapter 163: A Different Way of Safety
From politics to shopping malls, detouring around corners is a must-have skill for everyone, and many people will feel like they are in a fog, but some people can accurately grasp the true meaning of it.
Zhou Ming is like this, just like Cao Jianning said, Zhou Ming has indeed heard some flavors a long time ago, the previous compliments and greetings are not counted, when Cao Jianning suddenly asked about the contradiction between himself and Hua Shao, Zhou Ming had already paid attention, and then went to the misunderstanding with Brother Tan in the back, and talked about the origin of this Dongmen Hotel, and finally the influence of their Cao family on the entire Lingnan.
These sound like ordinary small talk, if it is a few ordinary people, then this is indeed bragging to each other, but this time it was Cao Jianning, the youngest son of Marshal Cao, who took the initiative to invite himself to dinner, which may not be.
Cao Jianning said this in front of Zhou Ming, in fact, it was a psychological means, first talking about the contradictions between Zhou Ming, Brother Tan and Hua Shao, and then talking about the influence of his family in Lingnan, which was to imply that Zhou Ming could easily help Zhou Ming solve the problem, at this time, as long as Zhou Ming really proposed to ask Cao Jianning for help, then the initiative would be handed over to him.
This is a very roundabout strategy, a subtle way to influence people, if ordinary people don't pay attention, they will be taken away by him, but Zhou Ming noticed the problem at the first time.
But when he realized it, Zhou Ming didn't expect that Cao Jianning would invite him to dinner today for this purpose.
Cao Jianning said that the CSRC should be placed in Lingnan Province for self-examination and self-correction, which means that Lingnan Province should control the securities market itself, and in short, the Cao family wants to turn this securities market into their own private property.
The idea of turning the entire securities market into something controlled by a family sounds incredible, but it is actually feasible, after all, the Cao family has incomparable influence in Lingnan, and the securities market is developed in Lingnan, which gives the Cao family a chance to get close to the water. Through Guò's observation of the securities market during this time, the Cao family also realized the huge potential of the securities market, and they wanted to use their brains.
Last but not least, the reform and opening up at this time was actually a history of the struggle for power between the central and local governments.
It sounds unbelievable, but it's just the way it is.
In Zhou Ming's memory, the Nanjiang securities market in the previous life was really a product of Lingnan Province at first, whether it was from the policy operation or supervision, it was all arranged by Lingnan Province itself, until later because of the stock madness, a large number of angry shareholders hit the Nanjiang government organs, the central government took advantage of the situation, established the Securities Regulatory Commission, and brought the Nanjiang securities market under the supervision of the State Council.
Zhou Ming has no way of knowing whether the Nanjiang securities market in his previous life was also operated by the Cao family, but the struggle for power between the central and local governments does exist, especially the Cao family is still a red family with such great authority and influence from the central to the local, and it is even more difficult for the central government to deal with it.
Unexpectedly, in this life, because of himself, the securities market in Nanjiang was formed four years in advance, although there is no real stock exchange, but the functions of this securities company in all aspects are almost the same. Therefore, the Cao family found themselves and let themselves, the people who know securities best, fall to their side, and they have the largest capital to compete with the central government.
Thinking of this, Zhou Ming didn't feel a little helpless, he hid around and hid, he just wanted to make money quietly and be a capitalist in a low-key manner, but he didn't expect this kind of political struggle for power and profit to come to the door, but he was not fat, why couldn't he hide it?
Cao Jianning looked at Zhou Ming, took a sip of tea unhurriedly, and then said: "Consultant Zhou, I think you should understand a truth, a small boat is easy to capsize on the sea, but if this ship docks on another giant ship, then the situation is different, the small boat can follow the giant ship effortlessly, and there is no need to worry about any wind and waves at sea, what do you say?"
"Actually, I think it's safest to stay on the shore and avoid all the wind and waves. Zhou Ming said.
Zhou Ming understood Cao Jianning's analogy, and he wanted to tell Zhou Ming As long as Zhou Ming nodded today, he could be a member of the Cao family in the future, and no matter what he did, the Cao family would never sit idly by.
Cao Jianning looked up at Zhou Ming and asked, "Listening to Consultant Zhou's statement, it seems that Consultant Zhou has rejected my proposal?"
Zhou Ming shook his head and said, "I'm not refusing, it's just that I have my own ideas." ”
If you can get the protection of the Cao family, Zhou Ming can consider it, after all, the protection of a red family is very beneficial in many ways, which is very well reflected after he met Du Peng. But the key is this matter of fighting for power with the central government, Zhou Ming really didn't dare to mix casually, because Zhou Ming knew in his heart that this was a point of no return.
Politics is a kind of mutual compromise, and the local government, with the support of the big family, does have the opportunity to compete with the central government for power, but under the centralized system, unless there is a rebellion, there is no good result.
In fact, Zhou Ming remembered that in the first ten years, the central government was reducing local power little by little, and the ultimatum of the reform of the tax sharing system completely broke the backbone of the local government financially, and since then, no matter how powerful the local officials and families are, they no longer have the ability to compete with the central government.
At that time, an iron-fisted prime minister of later generations stood up and led the team to run across the country, and finally unified his thinking and smoothly implemented the tax reform.
This is a statement on the surface, but it is not difficult for Zhou Ming to imagine how many knives the central government has put in it, how many families have collapsed, and even many of them are on par with the Cao family.
It is precisely because of these lessons from the past that Zhou Ming will stay away from Cao Jianning's invitation.
However, Cao Jianning was obviously not satisfied with Zhou Ming's answer, he said: "Consultant Zhou has any ideas to say. ”
Zhou Ming thought for a while and said: "Since Mr. Cao said so, then I won't go around the bend with Mr. Cao, I have one question, Mr. Cao, do you really think you can grab power in the hands of the central government?"
Cao Jianning was stunned for a moment, although he said that Zhou Ming had something to say, but he didn't expect Zhou Ming to really say this, after all, there are many things you can do directly, but it's best not to say it, Cao Jianning asked with a calm face: "Consultant Zhou, what do you mean by this?"
"Let's just tell the truth. Zhou Ming said, "Mr. Cao, you understand or not, I only want to say one thing, I believe Mr. Cao should have heard about the stock market crash yesterday, as long as one is not handled well, it will cause a big thing, then if the stock market is all in charge of Lingnan Province or the Cao family, if this kind of thing happens again in the future, I think Mr. Cao should be able to think of the consequences." ”
Cao Jianning's face became grim, of course he could imagine the consequences of what Zhou Ming said, it was nothing more than that the central government took advantage of the matter to seize power, and by the way, suppressed the local family, and even had to use some knives. The central authorities already have absolute authority, and this kind of thing is easy to do.
"That's why Advisor Zhou, you're important!" Cao Jianning said.
Zhou Ming shook his head and said: "Mr. Cao, some things are economic laws, it is inevitable, you see that Western countries have been here for more than 100 years, it stands to reason that their securities markets are already very mature, right? But the economic crisis is still one after another, just a few months ago in the global stock market crash, I don't know how many billions of funds have been steamed, how can I change this law?"
"Then it seems that Consultant Zhou still rejected my kindness?" Cao Jianning asked.
I didn't expect to say this for a long time, and in the end he still said the same thing.
Zhou Ming muttered in his heart, and then replied: "Mr. Cao, I don't refuse, but there are some things to do, and some things need to be done in a different way." ”
Cao Jianning's eyes lit up: "In another way, what does Consultant Zhou mean?"
"It's very simple, Mr. Cao, you think stocks are very profitable, right? Then why don't you set up a company by yourself, and also come to the securities company to list and trade, and support the construction of the securities market together? Or you can also set up a company specializing in securities trading that specializes in helping ordinary people speculate in stocks and open accounts? I believe this should be completely different for the Cao family. ”
Zhou Ming continued: "And most importantly, these are just pure business activities, and no one will interfere with them, which is very safe." ”
Zhou Ming's words made Cao Jianning feel empowered, and he said to Zhou Ming: "No wonder even Elder Yang and Chairman Dong attach so much importance to Advisor Zhou, and even Chairman Dong took the initiative to invite Advisor Zhou to work in the State Council.
"Mr. Cao has won the award, I just said it casually. Zhou Ming said.
In the face of Cao Jianning's praise, Zhou Ming was really a little embarrassed, because what he said was actually the memory of his previous life, in the previous life, when something happened to Nanjiang and the central government established the Securities Regulatory Commission to take back power, the Cao family's coping strategy was to set up a joint-stock company and do it himself.
But Cao Jianning didn't think so, in his opinion, Zhou Ming was very remarkable, because the method he said was exactly the same as the strategy set by the old man.
So Cao Jianning gave Zhou Ming a thumbs up and said, "No, Consultant Zhou, don't be arrogant, you are really amazing, if you really say it casually, you will be even more amazing!"
At this time, they all forgot that there was a Luo Han next to him, and Luo Han was already stunned at this time and couldn't speak at all, he couldn't imagine what kind of monsters Zhou Ming and Cao Jianning were, he couldn't hear the meaning of the words just now, and he didn't react suddenly until Zhou Ming began to beat around the bush, but they always said so.
It is understandable to say that Cao Jianning is so powerful because of his family, but what is the situation of Zhou Ming? He is only in his twenties, how can he understand such a twist and turn? This is too freak, right?
Luo Han felt that he was compared to Zhou Ming, and he couldn't even compare to one ten-thousandth of him!
