Chapter 267: Imbalance
There is no doubt that the comprehensive reform and the more radical policy opening up in 1984 enabled our country to achieve remarkable economic achievements.
This year, China's GDP was 100 million yuan, which was 4.3 billion yuan higher than the 1983 GDP of 100 million yuan, and a high-speed growth rate of more than 20 percent was achieved.
Moreover, the growth part is mainly completed by the secondary and tertiary industries.
This is not only a miracle report card, but also shows that China has begun to break through the economic ceiling of traditional agricultural countries and begin to transform and move closer to the economic structure of a modern country.
In fact, the specific effect can be felt most intuitively as long as it is from the supply of materials and the market supply in the capital.
For example, in eating.
This year, greenhouse vegetables have been promoted, and the yield has increased significantly.
A large number of out-of-season vegetables are supplied to the market, so that the residents of Beijing can also eat fresh cucumbers, tomatoes and legumes in winter.
For example, meat sausages, cooked foods, soy products and liquor, which have been in short supply in previous years, have also been partially unsalable this year due to abundant supply.
The relationship between supply and demand for tea has changed completely, from undersupply to oversupply in one fell swoop.
So this year, the year-end benefits of many units have added the item of tea distribution.
From then on, individuals drinking the public's "welfare tea" will gradually become a social phenomenon that everyone is not surprised and accustomed to.
In addition, I wear it, following the hot sale of a red skirt and a windbreaker last year.
The winter military coat and the local brand "Illylland" down jacket in Beijing have also triggered a phenomenal trend.
There are also new products on the market with very avant-garde design touring shoes and fashionable sportswear.
There is no doubt that these are all fashionable goods that teenagers find difficult to resist.
As for the use of industrial shopping vouchers, it has become the second shopping voucher to be stopped after the cloth ticket.
The traditional three-turn one-ring, almost all families in the capital, are basically popular.
What's new in the market is that there are more and more types of soaps, shampoos, shampoos, and skin rejuvenation creams.
The popular style of furniture has become a combination cabinet, no longer paying attention to how many legs, and has begun to climb towards the goal of "Jackie Chan matching". As a result, the blending lacquer became completely obsolete, and the carpenter began to pursue naturalness and highlight the style of the log.
At this time, the high-end and high-end goods in the department store are specially prepared for the Spring Festival, referring to the price of 34.60 a kilogram of mohair wool, 64 yuan a gram of gold jewelry, 118 yuan of small tape recorder, 491 yuan of four-horn dual-card tape recorder, 335 yuan of Bailan brand double-cylinder washing machine, Lisheng's single-door snowflake brand refrigerator, and 590 yuan of mountain bikes.
In short, in addition to housing and color TVs, which are still scarce resources that people are desperately fighting for.
In the field of general commodity circulation, the abundance and prosperity of material supplies has begun to appear.
As a result, no one mends socks anymore, and few people are happy to make their own clothes for their children anymore.
The trade of making pots and bowls has completely disappeared, and the trade in repairing pots, welding pots, and fountain pens has also become much bleaker......
That is to say, the way of life of the residents of Beijing is changing from subsistence to well-off, from self-sufficiency to commodity, from single to diverse, and from durable to renewed, as the state expects.
But no matter how good things are, new situations always bring new problems.
Marx once said that from a product economy to a market economy, this is not an ordinary leap, it is a thrilling jump, and if you don't get it right, you will fall into the abyss.
There is no doubt that while the economy is growing by leaps and bounds and the economic structure is changing, there will also be negative effects that some countries do not want to see and are difficult to avoid.
For example, the price elasticity of agricultural products itself is very low, and the further expansion of the "scissors gap" and the oversupply of grain production have directly led to a sharp drop in peasants' incomes.
In addition, the "five stations and one station" had to rely on the peasants for funding, and as a result, the peasants' days that had just been prosperous came to an abrupt end, and they inevitably became the most hurt group during this period.
Second, the key to reform lies in liberalizing the market and prices.
However, in the absence of a large number of commodities, once prices are liberalized, a relatively large amount of money will chase a small number of commodities, which will immediately cause inflation.
Although the state has conducted sufficient research, estimated the consequences, and adopted some measures to prevent and regulate.
But the inflation that has persisted in recent years has accumulated to the point where it should not be underestimated.
In fact, the purchasing power of the yuan currency is only equivalent to 59.8 yuan in 1952.
What's more, the demonstration effect of "getting rich first and a group of people" has triggered a "national business fever".
The "corporate fever" caused by the state allowing power to get involved in business last year.
In addition, the banking system has completed the restructuring of "appropriation and re-lending," so that many operators of state-owned enterprises have not been able to change their concepts and form a correct understanding for a while.
Even before enterprises around the country have become complete market players, they have no sense of responsibility, and there are orders that cannot be carried out, and there are prohibitions that do not stop......
These hidden dangers are far from being fully revealed.
As a result, 1985 is destined to be a year in which various interests collide with each other, the people's psychology is unbalanced, and values are full of confusion.
Of course, some of the first signs of things can still be reflected in specific life situations.
For example, the village closest to Longkou Village.
The village secretary called the almost simple and honest old peasants.
Sitting on the edge of the kang, he repeatedly told them about the policy.
tells about the various expenses they owe last year and should have been paid a long time ago.
It's a pity that poor is poor, these people smoke dry cigarettes and don't say a word, only helpless and even numb expressions.
The village party secretary waited for a long time and no one expressed his position, so after thinking about it, he simply gritted his teeth.
"I heard that 'Longkou Village' has set up a construction team in the city again. If you can't pay the money a year ago, I can only put my old face on my face and beg others. But no matter what, you'll have to make up the 'quasi-approval' for me. β
In front of the counter selling fresh meat in the "Chongwenmen Vegetable Market", the crowd was indignant.
The reason is that the counter has implemented an unprecedented price increase in the tip of the buttocks, and it is actually two cents higher than ordinary pork per catty.
Naturally, the customers didn't do it, so they all started arguing.
"Why are you raising prices indiscriminately, who gave you the power?"
"Sue the price bureau, you have to punish them. β
"You are too unethical, where have you thrown away the idea of serving the people, and you don't even talk about your conscience for the sake of bonuses......"
The salesman is the master of the Confucianism every day, how can he be afraid of such a formation?
"Don't make a noise! I said, don't button your hat. What kind of indiscriminate price increases? Pork is no longer a product that is purchased and sold in a unified manner, and the price has long been on the market. β
"Don't know what's wrong, you can just go around and see where else there are fresh buttocks besides us. To be honest with you, the price of other land is the same. But the real good meat either opens the back door or sells a large portion to various units. Where is your turn? That is, we deliberately left such a dozen catties. Isn't that called serving the people?"
"Now I don't like to wear white pork belly, everyone loves to eat thin. But to whom do these good meats sell, and not to whom? You can play with the front squeeze and plug indiscriminately. What about the uncles and aunts in the back? Let's get the one with the highest price. If you want to buy it, it doesn't matter if you don't, we can sell it anyway. β
Yes, this is also the truth of righteous words.
And as he was talking, someone behind him was already calling impatiently.
"If you don't buy it, you can open it, don't occupy the thatched house and don't. Time has been delayed for you, you think about others!"
"Hula", everyone's will began to disintegrate, and some people compromised and were willing to pay a high price for the tip of the buttocks......
"Beijing No. 15 Middle School", in the office of the junior high school teaching and research group.
As a class teacher, Chang Xianzhang worked hard to educate students like Hong Yanwu at the beginning.
"Li Xiaohong, do you know your results in this exam?"
"It's good. "This girl is pretending to be stupid.
"Didn't you think you could do better?"
Li Xiaohong put on an attitude of seeing through the red dust.
"How good can it be?"
"Why don't you take it seriously?" Chang Xianzhang shook his head regretfully.
"You were in the top 10 in the first few tests, why are you almost in 20 this time, why did your score drop?"
"Hey, what you learn is what you do. Time, luck, and life!"
"What?
Chang Xianzhang couldn't believe it.
Then he said in a heart-wrenching tone.
"If you want to say that you are smart, you are really smart, but you don't put your mind into studying, we are the focus of the city. How difficult is it for you to get in? You're going to take the high school entrance examination this year, and you don't want to be admitted to our high school? It looks like I'm going to have to talk to your parents about it......
didn't expect Li Xiaohong to be stunned at all.
"Teacher Chang, I advise you not to bother with that. As my mother said, it's useless to take the university entrance exam now, so it's better to graduate early and go to the hotel to work as a waiter. β
"My dad also said that intellectuals are not really interesting, and a university professor can't make a hundred dollars. β
"Teacher, how much can you earn? Do you think it's fun to be a teacher?"
Chang Xianzhang was completely shocked, his lips trembled, and he forced himself to calm down by gritting his teeth for a long time.
But at this time, he changed to a softer attitude.
"Xiaohong, don't be so cynical, what is said in society is actually often wrong. β
"You move a chair and sit down. For you not to regret it later. The teacher wants to talk to you about it, let's not talk about the big truth of 'the book has its own golden house' and 'respect for knowledge and talents' today, but talk about what kind of life can make you feel truly happy. β
"I remember you liked the French movie 'Les Miserables'? Then you must remember that there was a narration in it. Bishop Mirière loved flowers, and he used to say that 'beauty' is like something useful, and perhaps more useful......"
The office building of the "Polar Bear" plant.
Three cars, two white and one black, drove in line to the door of the building and stopped.
When the people who just came out of the building saw this scene, they were all suddenly stunned like a little demon who had been immobilized by Sun Wukong.
And all the way to see these cars, the workers who followed them were noisy as boiling pots on the road from the office building to the factory gate.
People were excited, shouting, and some waved their hands to beckon others to come and see the excitement.
There is no doubt that the luxury imported cars bought by these three service companies shook the whole factory.
When the workers gathered, no one touched the logo, taillights and doors of the car like a child.
Such envy will naturally lead to discussions.
"Look, the service company is really good, the 'crown' is opened, and the treatment of serious bureau-level cadres is ......"
"Pull it down, the minister just raised the red flag, it's still far from this thing......"
"I'll go, no. This is all super-ministerial, this ...... Does that sound like a word? Can the factory say yes?"
"Ouch, what does the money that people's 'First Service Company' earn by themselves, and how many cars they buy? Besides, you didn't see three......"
"Yes, I heard that it was Shui Qing and Sister Wei, and the remaining one was given to the factory. β
"Oh, needless to say, it must be Director Yang. Secretary Guo didn't ......"
The forgetfulness of this last sentence immediately triggered a laugh like a group of mockery.
But no one knew that there was a glass on the third floor, and Secretary Guo listened really well, and he had already broken a teacup!
Then, he immediately called angrily.
As soon as he got on the other side, he scolded angrily.
"His grandmother's, Dong Ganda, everyone else came to my window to show off their might. I ask you, in three months, you will earn me a crown, can you do it?"
The voice on the phone was genuinely terrified.
"Secretary Guo, this ...... Isn't that too much of a rush...... You don't know, there are a lot of vendors selling sugar gourds in your year, and we can only reduce the price ......"
"Fart! You have to be objective with me, you get out of here as soon as possible. β
The phone began to beg for mercy.
"Don't, Secretary Guo. I...... I didn't say no. But...... You'll have to help and give me some policies. β
"What policy, say!"
"It's the sugar and fruit in our factory or something, if there is a 'can't use' parity index, you see, can you give us a ......?"
