Chapter 083, Eat and Dress Warmly
() After Secretary Yu learned that Canglong came back, she hurriedly came to Canglong's residence from the municipal party committee office, of course, she didn't come to talk to Canglong about her daughter, but the cooperation project that the two discussed at the airport when Canglong left last time, which is also the best opportunity for Secretary Yu to turn over
The provincial people's congress session will be held soon, and there will be drastic changes in the political arena of the entire Jiangnan Province at that time; the general secretaries of the municipal party committees will concurrently hold important positions in the provincial party committees, and some even concurrently serve as vice governors, for example, the secretaries of the municipal party committees of special economic zones like Shenzhen are no worse than a provincial governor
Secretary Yu was also a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, and if there were no such things, it is estimated that she might be promoted to vice governor at this meeting of the Provincial People's Congress, after all, Dongning City can be regarded as a special economic zone in Jiangnan Province, but the occurrence of that bunch of things almost pulled Secretary Yu down
So if she didn't act, then she might be appointed to an idle position after this provincial people's congress, and then work until she retires, and there is no chance to turn over
But as soon as she entered the door, she saw Mariam, an Arab woman who was not inferior to her daughter at all in appearance, if it was Secretary Yu before, she would definitely think that Mariam had some origins, but now she completely dispelled this idea, if Canglong is a little white face, then she, the secretary of the municipal party committee, was almost pulled off by a little white face
Secretary Yu, who was not surprised, felt a little uncomfortable in his heart at this time, as if he wanted to say that my daughter was still lying on the hospital bed, and you actually brought a woman back
It's just that Secretary Yu won't say this sentence, but rots in his heart, and just asks: "You are almost a week later than you booked"
"The plan can't keep up with the change," Canglong didn't want to explain anything
Seeing that Canglong was not good, Secretary Yu didn't dwell on this topic, but said: "The Provincial People's Congress is about to open, are you ready, whether to invest in it or not, didn't you say that you went abroad to find a helper, where is your helper, don't tell me it's her?"
"It's her," Canglong looked at Mariam and nodded, "But it's just that it has something to do with her, don't you talk about me, have you borrowed your power?"
"As long as your funds are in place, I will naturally do it, not to mention one Mayor Yang, it is ten, what can Mayor Yang do with me," Secretary Yu's tone was amazing, "He recently submitted a plan for the economic reform of Dongning City, in addition to the original several major groups, it is said that a number of foreign capital has also been introduced, and now the province has been submitted to the Reform Office of the State Council, it is said that before the Provincial People's Congress session begins, it will come down to inform Mayor Yang, and even opened up some běi jīng branches, and they owe Dongfeng"
Looking at Secretary Yu's expression, Canglong knew that she was indeed in a hurry, and it must be burning her eyebrows to make someone like her anxious, Canglong was silent for a while, and then said: "Do you know what foreign capital is?"
"They didn't mention this, the plan was submitted secretly, if it weren't for Lao Wen getting the news, maybe I would still be in the dark now," Secretary Yu shook his head and said, "But one thing is almost clear: in Longyang County, an industrial park will be built, and those foreign capital will be stationed there, and with the economic zone of Dongning City, a complete system will be formed, which is the plan we submitted in the past."
"Longyang County" Canglong wondered: "You said that the cultivated land you bought was not used to build houses, but to build industrial parks"
"Yes," Secretary Yu nodded, "Most of the part is used to build an industrial park, and the rest of the small part will be used to build housing to attract floating population, this is the previous reform plan, Mayor Yang can hardly get out of this situation, but I didn't expect him to be able to attract foreign capital so quickly."
"Do you think it's a good thing to occupy cultivated land to develop industry?" Canglong suddenly asked
"How is it not a good thing, if I were like this, I would do the same, the plan you discussed with me, if it weren't for your money, almost no one would take a look, in our eyes, it is too naïve," Secretary Yu said unceremoniously
"It seems that you officials have gone to Europe and the United States for inspection, and you have eaten and drunk for nothing," Canglong shook his head. Since China's reform and opening up, if it is not for the fact that there is such a large population, cheap labor, and the economy can grow so fast, if the reform you are talking about is only to make your GDP double, regardless of people's life and death, then what is the use of reform, the most important thing is that foreign-funded enterprises firmly control their own technology, let you Chinese work for them, etc., as soon as the price of Chinese labor rises, they have moved to countries with cheaper labor, and finally China has nothing but a lot of GDP data, you think that the dollar is so easy to earn"
This time it was Secretary Yu's turn to be dumbfounded, it seemed that it was not Canglong who had always been naïve, but herself
"If China's enterprises have their own technology and can reach the world's leading level, then the occupation of cultivated land to develop industry is bound to be much stronger than my plan, but if the occupation of cultivated land is just for foreign capital to suck China's blood here, and in the end in exchange for a lot of green dollar bills, prices are inflated to the point that people can hardly bear it, and in the end it is just a bubble economy," Canglong paused before saying. European and American countries have technology, so they can export technology, they can use cheap labor in any country to earn dozens of times more money than yours, and they can use this money to pay benefits to people in their own countries, but can we?"
Hearing this, Secretary Yu shook his head, obviously not
"Can the Chinese clap their chests and shout what we have in the world," Canglong asked rhetorically
Secretary Yu was silent again, asking himself: After so many years of reform and opening up, China does not seem to have established any ringing bells, and the brand has always been built behind closed doors, and there are too few things that have really developed abroad, and the Chinese use physical strength to create cheap goods and dump them abroad because China has never mastered the core technology
Most of the products dumped by foreigners in China are high-tech and innovative products, such as the mobile phone industry, and even South Koreans can pat their chests and say that their country has a world-selling Samsung Electronics, and I have Sony, Americans have Apple, and Europeans have Nokia, but can China say that it has countless copycat machines and counterfeit machines
No matter what industry it is, as long as it marks the products made in China, the core technology of manufacturing products is actually not owned by Chinese, and what is made in China is just a shell
"A few decades ago, the country's leaders said that reform and opening up was because China was indeed poor, but now China's economy has begun to take shape, and even ranks first in the world in terms of total exports, but why don't we develop our own technology, but want to attract what bullshit, foreign capital and what bullshit," Canglong said coldly. Finally, if hundreds of millions of people leave their hometowns to work in other places to make money, if every province and city in China can create opportunities for their own farmers, is it necessary for them to leave their hometowns like this, they can stay in their hometowns and develop their hometowns better, without having to suffer from cold eyes outside?"
After being silent for a long time, Secretary Yu felt ridiculous: "You are just an idea, rambling, naïve and funny"
"It's naïve and funny, so your reform is just an excuse to fool people, there is no sincerity at all, I don't want to earn that green dollar bill, why invest money here," Canglong said coldly
"Could it be that the technology you are talking about is to develop agriculture, and the Chinese have worked hard for thousands of years and still have to use blood and sweat to earn money on this land?" Secretary Yu couldn't help but be a little annoyed: "If agriculture can catch up with science and technology, then why develop industry, it is better for all ancestors to go to farming and become farmers?"
"Industry is just an add-on that makes people's lives better and more comfortable, there is an old saying in China called "the people take food as the sky", if all the land is expropriated to engage in industry, in the end, no one farms the land, all go to produce, those add-ons are starved to death, and in the end, it is the common people who starve to death, and according to a historical law, whoever makes the people have no food to eat, who will have to collapse, any regime in history is like this, what the people want is to live without hunger, live simple, and real," Canglong said
"Why are you so stingy, can't you see the future, the future may not even be living here, we have a lot of space, and it is not limited to the present," Secretary Yu said, "and industry can take us to the future, agriculture can only be limited to the present"
"You can be stingy with me, because I am an ordinary person, what I want is to be fed and clothed, if you in power can't give me these, I will rebel," Canglong said amazingly, and even Secretary Yu was startled
"You can't be reasoned," Secretary Yu froze
"Yes, I can't be reasonable, so you officials will never be able to understand the consciousness of the people who are well fed and clothed, because you always expect everyone to see far away like you, but the facts always prove that most people can't see very far, what they see is only the present, and often those who see far away will eventually be overthrown by people who see very closely, and the dynasties of history are mostly like this," a smile appeared at the corner of Canglong's mouth
Secretary Yu suddenly had nothing to say, if Canglong's words had been criticized and fought to death decades ago, and now they are just a few sentences of prison, but these sentences of prison sāo have said a thought that has remained unchanged for thousands of years of Chinese people, that is, "eat enough and dress warmly"
In ancient times, all the emperors who were called Ming Jun basically kept the people fed and clothed, so they were called Ming Jun, and most of the dynasties governed by those who were called Ming Jun were strong but unwilling to expand their territory in war
Ming Jun often has an understanding: when the common people in their country are in deficit because of the war, they are not well fed and clothed, then the peasants of this country will revolt, which has nothing to do with whether they love the country or not
