Chapter 736: Dialectics
"It's not impossible to import, and I don't oppose the introduction of technology from abroad, and many of the technologies of Xinke are also imported from abroad. But—"
Although Hu Wenhai is unofficial and unemployed, with his current status, experience, and influence, there is no problem as a think tank for high-level decision-making. No, as soon as the news came from the United States in the middle of the night, Secretary Qing's phone called Hu Wenhai's bedroom.
After listening to Secretary Qing's introduction with the earpiece in his hand, Hu Wenhai sat up from the bed violently.
The information from all directions was centralized to the center, and then it was sorted out and streamlined by the "One Office" managed by Secretary Qing, and finally the whole situation was compressed into a 300-word briefing. The information content in this can be said to be really a thousand words.
The drowsiness disappeared, and Hu Wenhai's head began to run as fast as it could. To be honest, the plan put forward by the Americans did not exceed the predictions and judgments made by him and the top level of the country. However, when the situation does occur, the parties to the incident still feel a little on thin ice.
Hu Wenhai is a reborn who knows the direction of future history, but it is precisely because of this that he is more aware that at such a critical moment, any decision made may have a huge and unknowable impact on the future. One thought of heaven and one thought of hell, he has already learned the ability of this little girl to change her face in history.
"Whether the financial sector is open or not, I think you have a misunderstanding now. It's not a black and white choice, and I think we should be more flexible in our policies. Give me some time, I need to think about it. ”
Secretary Qing on the other end of the phone groaned a little, and asked tentatively: "Some leaders feel that it is not impossible to open up finance, although the financial field is dangerous, but there is President Hu in China, you may not be ......."
"Financial openness is not just about securities speculation, it includes many important areas such as banking, securities and insurance. Hu Wenhai's tone was quite resolute: "Loosening the control of the financial industry means that our foreign exchange system will be full of holes, does Secretary Qing think that my reputation can be compared to trillions of dollars of international hot money?"
"I understand what Mr. Hu meant. Secretary Qing simply cut off the conversation and stopped.
"The leader is still waiting, so please come up with a plan as soon as possible. ”
......
Hu Wenhai hung up the phone and sat on the bed for a long time. There were all kinds of thoughts in his mind, and a feeling of trepidation surrounded him.
"It's just an idea for the people above, and it's not just what I say......"
Hu Wenhai smiled bitterly and slowly put on his pajamas. The mouth is talking to himself to excuse himself, but his hands are involuntarily shaking one by one.
Nervous.
"Pour a pot of tea and add some ice. Hu Wenhai picked up the phone and instructed the secretary on the night shift. After a while, a pot of green tea with ice was served.
Hu Wenhai knows that with his influence today, some words are absolutely responsible. It is not responsible for one's own future, but for the country and millions of ordinary people.
It's just one thing, just giving advice as a think tank, just a hidden responsibility. Even if he makes decisions that lead to a bad future, he knows he won't be blamed. Whatever the result, someone else will end up taking the blame.
But even so, he couldn't help but keep clenching his fists.
Those who can face such pressure every day and every moment, and still be able to "do a little bit of work" and "be ashamed" under such pressure, are really amazing.
Hu Wenhai held a pen in his hand and wrote and drew on paper. All kinds of thoughts came to my mind, but I couldn't make up my mind.
The time lasted from midnight to dawn, and every stroke that Hu Wenhai put on the paper was as heavy as a thousand pounds. He had only slept for two or three hours all night, and his spirit at this time was strangely tired and nervous. From time to time, there was a burst of neuralgia in his head, but there was no trace of sleepiness.
He realized he needed some ...... Guidance, history has undoubtedly changed seriously because of his arrival, but the future is not absolutely chaotic, and the future that he has experienced still has a certain guiding role.
How to see a path in this chaos is not reliable based on past experience alone. But the information in his hands at this time, the reasoning and deduction of history are also beyond the scope of human ability. Where can I get help? Hu Wenhai's eyes swept around the room, and suddenly, he saw a book on the shelves full of books.
The paper of this book, which can be found everywhere in the country, is very new, and it is clear that few people will look at it. In fact, Hu Wenhai didn't read it in its entirety once, but he just glanced at it a few times on a whim during this time.
However, at this time, a sentence that he accidentally wrote down in this book suddenly appeared in his mind.
"Dialectics is the understanding of the affirmation of existing things and at the same time the understanding of the negation of existing things, that is, the understanding of the inevitable demise of existing things; dialectics understands every established form in terms of constant movement and therefore of its temporality; dialectics does not worship anything, it is, by its very nature, critical and revolutionary. ”
Capital, vol. 1, 2nd ed.
Ma Dan, I didn't expect that philosophy would really be useful.
Hu Wenhai reminisced about the collapsing academic language, which he didn't understand much at first—philosophical vernacular is more difficult to understand than diplomatic vernacular, and philosophers, unlike programmers, always prefer to define common variables on their own, and nouns are often understood completely differently from everyday meanings.
For example, the saying "existence is reasonable" that everyone knows.
On the surface, in the popular language, it means that since things exist, they must have their reasonable side.
In reality, however, Hegel's coffin board has long since become unpressable. For this rationality defined by Hegel is not "reasonable" at all, but roughly, probably, and perhaps should be understood as "reason". That is to say, "everything that is realistic is in accordance with reason" and "everything that exists must perish".
Existence and perdition are a pair of contradictions, but the only certainty of existence is perdition. Dialectics is not a sophistry without right or wrong, a golden mean, and a self-consolation of "taking advantage of a loss", but a method of understanding problems at a higher level.
Those who only remember that "existence is reasonable" are reckless if they learn without thinking, and do not use methodology to think about the world view, and the so-called three views are actually not fundamentally different from feudal superstition.
In the sense that the above passage in Capital can be understood by ordinary people, dialectics looks at problems in constant motion, and it believes that the understanding of any problem is temporary and one-sided. Only by taking into account the problem from birth to demise can we jump out of this problem in this unity of opposites and sublimate it to a new height.
A person is born with no certainty, but the only thing that is certain is that he will die one day. Life is temporary and one-sided, and only by combining death and birth can this process be sublimated into the life of an adult. Only when this person thinks about anything from the perspective of life can it be meaningful and feel the pulse of the truth.
For many ordinary people, this is nothing more than an academic theory. But for Hu Wenhai, it is a key. This key opens this door, and it is a rugged mountain path. I don't know if it will lead to a tangible future, but at least it's much better than being completely lost in the forest of history.
When it comes to the current Sino-US negotiations, simply considering whether a certain technology will suffer a loss or take advantage of it is one-sided and temporary, and this is also the fundamental reason why Hu Wenhai has been unable to figure out how it will develop in the future. Unless there is a "superstring computer" that can simulate the entire universe, it will not be possible to discover the essence through phenomena and predict how changes will occur in the future.
At this time, Hu Wenhai's mind was clear, he got up from his seat excitedly, and couldn't help but keep walking around the office. For ordinary people, how to use dialectics to discover extinction from existence is the most difficult step. Without the great wisdom of the chairman, it is impossible to see the subtleties, and it is even more difficult to sublimate the problem after the topic is combined.
However, for Hu Wenhai, who has a future to refer to, the most difficult step has already given him the answer.
People and land, people and land, people and land, people and land, people and land.
In 1946, China and the United States signed the Sino-US Treaty of Amity, Commerce and Navigation, which at that time was an out-and-out traitorous treaty, comparable to 21 articles. However, you see that if such a treaty is signed again in the 21st century, whoever can sign it will be China's great hero!
Opening up finance now is, of course, the worst option and the most irresponsible behavior for China's development. But that's where we come back to the wise adage – things are changing!
Financial openness can certainly be opened, but certainly not immediately. In particular, there is still a lot to be done here, and it is the worst and stupidest way to engage in trade protection and go to power shirtless and keep people out. What impressed Hu Wenhai the most was the means that China will play in the rare earth resource market in the future.
Of course, we are a market economy, of course we abide by the rules of international trade, and of course we will not oppose the export of rare earth resources. But after all, rare earth resources are still on our own land, and we are playing you to death at home, is there still less means?
In the final analysis, the most urgent task in China at present is to emancipate the mind! The reason why we are so worried about some things is actually that we are too "honest."
Today's big stride back is for tomorrow's big stride. Moreover, the retreat of the regular army does not mean that the guerrillas have also retreated.
Hu Wenhai sat back in his chair and picked up his pen.
