"According to the information we know, Gao Lei was sent by a foundation in the United States to return to China to carry out activities. In the past month, he has given 15 lectures in China, 10 of which are in universities and the other 5 are invited by some institutions to be held at academic conferences. In addition, a public relations company is helping him contact a television station to set up a column on the television station to comment on China's economic issues. The name of this column has been decided, guess what's the name?"

In the small conference room of the equipment company, Zhang Heping, an official from the security department, briefed the participants on the situation investigated by their system.

"How can we guess this?" said Wang Gengen, vice president of the equipment company, "We can't understand the things that the media are engaged in, so you can just say it." ”

Zhang Heping said with a smile: "The name of the column is called 'Gao Jian', which is a pun, which can be interpreted as Gao Lei's opinion, and can also be interpreted as Gao Lei's opinion. ”

"Gao Jian?" Feng Xiaochen sneered, "He really dares to put gold on his face, this set of things he said is purely to fool the ignorant." ”

"Lao Zhang, is there a problem with the public relations company you mentioned?" asked Wang Genji.

Zhang Heping said: "It can't be said that there is any big problem, anyway, I usually take over the business of overseas companies, and this time I was so enthusiastic to help Gao Lei contact the TV station, I should have taken money from abroad." ”

"What does Zhang Ju mean is that Gao Lei and this public relations company are all employed by foreign foundations?" Leng Feiyun asked.

Zhang Heping said: "Basically. We have grasped the situation of more than 30 overseas foundations, and they are under various banners, but their real purpose is to carry out a propaganda war against us, confuse our thinking, and shake our determination. ”

"In other words, it's not just a foundation that is doing this to China?" Wang asked.

Zhang Heping shook his head and said, "Of course it's more than that." There are hundreds of people like Gao Lei who were sent by them to influence public opinion. In the name of subsidizing domestic teachers, journalists, and cadres of domestic institutions, some foundations have infiltrated the minds of these trainees and made them become the spokespersons of the foundation. Didn't Mr. Feng say that his daughter's teacher also held the same view as Gao Lei, which shows that the ideological penetration abroad has been very deep. ”

Leng Feiyun said: "Fortunately, this kind of infiltration has no effect on us. As far as most of the business leaders we have contacted are concerned, everyone's thinking is relatively consistent, and they all believe that we must firmly take the road of industrialization. Our superiors are also very supportive of our work, and this is not something that a few foundations can change. ”

Zhang Heping smiled faintly and said, "Minister Leng is too optimistic. It is true that our current leading cadres still attach more importance to taking the road of industrialization, because most of the cadres are from our generation, or slightly younger, but they have also experienced some training. However, when our generation leaves their posts and retires, and our next generation takes over, what will their thinking be?"

"That's exactly what I'm worried about. Feng Xiaochen said with a gloomy face.

After listening to Feng Shan talk about Gao Lei's lecture at Renmin University, Feng Xiaochen specially submitted a report to the relevant departments at the higher level, reminding the higher authorities to pay attention to the issue of public opinion and propaganda in this regard. The higher-level departments had actually noticed this trend of thought for a long time, and what they had learned was far more serious than what Feng Xiaochen had heard.

In the past few years, dozens of "financial experts" or "independent scholars" with overseas backgrounds have appeared in the domestic public opinion arena, who have very prominent academic qualifications and titles, are very eloquent, and have great fame among the people. A common characteristic of these experts is that they comprehensively deny China's construction achievements and then China's social system.

In terms of industrialization, these experts unanimously believe that China's path of industrial development is wrong, and they claim that the United States and Europe have stopped engaging in industry, while the welfare of these countries is very good.

In fact, such a view simply cannot stand up to scrutiny. The prosperity of Western countries comes precisely from the accumulation of industrialization in the past, Britain, Germany, and the United States were once the "world's factories", and cities such as Detroit and Birmingham were also once full of chimneys and fog. These countries have accumulated wealth through 200 years of industrial development, which has led to today's high welfare. In recent years, it has been because these countries have neglected industrial production and their economies have been excessively detached from real to virtual, which has led to a serious economic crisis.

The experts' point of view is actually to point to a rich man who drives a yacht on the sea and says to the poor: You see, if you want to be rich, you must drive a yacht every day, not go to work, and the reason why you are poor is because you go to work every day.

Such absurd logic, but it can prevail, in the final analysis, this is the power of the media. The media has praised these experts and blocked all questioning remarks, creating such a public opinion environment. In fact, most people are lazy to think, and they accept whatever opinions the media conveys to them.

So, the question arises, why would the media overwhelmingly only support such absurd remarks and block out the truth? The information that Zhang Heping brought to everyone is the answer to the mystery, and those overseas foundations are the driving forces behind the media.

"China's economic development has threatened the interests of the established Western countries. They can't compete with us in the market, so they plan to corrupt us ideologically. If we accept the idea of de-industrialization, our younger generation will be disgusted with the real economy and obsessed with the virtual economy. In this way, our development will be weak, and we will eventually fail. Feng Xiaochen said.

Zhang Heping said: "In fact, the situation of the younger generation averse to the real economy has already appeared in the United States, Europe and Japan. Young people in Europe do not want to study engineering in college, but prefer to study art, finance, media, etc., and there is a fault line in their engineering community. The same is true in the United States, where the hallmark of young people's success is the ability to work on Wall Street, where tech stars are no longer in demand. ”

"This is also one of the reasons why the competitiveness of Western countries in manufacturing has declined in recent years. The average age of the engineers in our company is about 20 years younger than in Western countries. Feng Xiaochen added.

Wang Genji said: "The foreign devils themselves have taken the wrong road, so they want to trick us into taking this road." Gao Lei is the person they sent to show us the way, right?"

Leng Feiyun frowned and said, "Zhang Ju, people like Gao Lei are obviously here to cause sabotage, can't you take some measures against them?"

Zhang Heping smiled bitterly and said: "How can we take measures? They just gave a lecture to promote their own academic views, and there were no obvious remarks that endangered national security, so we can't interfere with academic freedom, right?"

"What kind of academic freedom is this, according to me, since you have the relevant information, you can arrest people directly. A person like Gao Lei is definitely not wronged if he is arrested and sentenced to a few years. Wang Genji said hatefully.

"It's unrealistic. Feng Xiaochen was still relatively calm, he knew that Wang Genji's idea only sounded enjoyable, but in fact it couldn't be done. Zhang Heping is right, the banner of Gao Lei and others is academic discussion, and academics cannot set up forbidden areas, otherwise it will be difficult to innovate. If Gao Lei's views are extreme, the law is used to punish them, which will inevitably lead to ideological imprisonment in the end, which is a thing that outweighs the loss.

"There is an old Chinese saying that evil does not prevail over good. There is also a saying that facts speak louder than words. Gao Lei's point of view is just a kind of sophistry. China's achievements in economic construction are irrefutable, so why should we be afraid of them slandering?" Feng Xiaochen said, "The current chaos in the field of public opinion mainly lies in the lack of positive voices. Gao Lei and these people are making a lot of nonsense, but we have no one to debate with them and expose their lies.

Let me give you an example: After listening to Gao Lei's lecture, my Xiaoshan was very convinced of his views. Later, when I told her about the development of equipment, she understood that Gao Lei's point of view was untenable, and she even relayed what I told her friends to help her friends get to know each other correctly.

This incident has given me a revelation that we should tell more stories to young people and do more education on national conditions. We don't need to be as clever as Gao Lei and them, we just need to tell them the real situation. I believe that our next generation has the ability to discern, and in the face of the truth, lies will be self-defeating. ”

"Mr. Feng is right. Zhang Heping said, "Our department has also studied this issue, and the final point of view always coincides with Feng's." The best way to eliminate the negative impact of Gao Lei's people is for us to take the initiative and refute their views with positive views. ”

"This is very easy!" Wang Genji came to his senses, and he said to Feng Xiaochen: "Xiaochen, if you want to talk about eloquence, Gao Lei is really not your opponent, or you can also go to the TV station to open a column and tell young people about equipment manufacturing." ”

Feng Xiaochen waved his hand and said, "It's free to start a column on the TV station, I'm really not used to being on TV." However, I think it is feasible to carry out industrialization propaganda. The responsibility of our equipment industry company is to promote the research and development of China's major technology and equipment, and public opinion propaganda is also part of our work. Didn't Gao Lei say that China only makes shirts and socks, we have to expose his lies and let everyone know that China is an industrial power with a full set of equipment manufacturing strength. ”
