Chapter 361: Director Yang took the initiative to reach out for power for the first time!
The rapid development of the economy will inevitably bring about changes in people's consumption concepts.
As a concept of consumption in the process of social transformation, it has a duality.
On the one hand, it has a high tendency to consume, and on the other hand, it retains some traditional consumption consciousness. The two will inevitably collide violently.
However, in the previous life of China, the traditional consciousness was always being overcome!
The concept of frugality and thrift has basically ceased to exist. Especially among the younger generation, the old concept of "three years of the new, three years of the old, and another three years of mending" has basically disappeared completely.
Of course, Yang Weiping will not forget the various deformed consumption phenomena that appeared in the high consumption frenzy in China in the previous life.
Blind spending. Some people do not have high consumption conditions, but in order to catch up with the trend and satisfy their material desires, they also squeeze into the so-called "famous brand aristocracy" group.
Jobbery. The purchase of high-end products can be reimbursed with public funds!
Dirty spending. Spending money on embezzled public funds or illegally raising funds to buy buildings and luxury cars.
Eat and drink at public expense. This kind of eating and drinking expenses are either included in the cost, or from the administrative project expenditure, the country eats at least 100 billion a year!
The gap between the rich and the poor is huge. A so-called "star" figure can spend five figures on a single costume, and four figures are enough for a scientific researcher to earn half a year. Those who engage in missiles are not as good as those who sell tea eggs!
What makes Yang Weiping feel the most painful thing is that the 80 million industrial workers who have been trained by tightening their belts in the 30 years since the founding of the People's Republic of China have become a disadvantaged group living at the lowest level of society in the 21 st century.
Now, can he use his efforts to change these stubborn diseases that have bred in history?
It is absolutely not feasible to develop industry without studying the current state of the economy and society.
The collapse of the Soviet Union is the clearest example of this.
With a mind full of "incurable diseases", Yang Weiping is not in the mood to fall in love with Qiu Fang anymore.
In addition, Qiu Fang herself also has a bunch of things to deal with and solve in the rock security company. The two agreed on a time period for regular phone calls, and they didn't even have the warmth at the end of the day, so they went their separate ways again. Live far apart from each other.
After returning to Beijing by helicopter, Yang Weiping took advantage of his spare time to write a report entitled "On the Minefields That Must Be Guarded Against in the Process of China's Economic Development" to Chief No. 1.
The article focuses on the many shortcomings that may occur in the reform of the economic system, and lists the ten major mistakes summarized by later economists. The rhetoric is vehemently pointed out that absolute power inevitably leads to absolute corruption.
In this report, Yang Weiping proposed a new pattern of "small government, big society".
He made it clear. With China's reform and opening up and the implementation of the market economic system, it is inevitable to break the social structure that has remained unchanged for many years based on the planned economy, and this will lead to major changes.
And one of the trends of this change is the pattern of "small government, big society" that is taking shape.
The government is a part of society, but the government is relatively independent. Playing a leading and leading role in society. Therefore, the relationship between the government and society can be regarded as a very important pivot in the social structure.
Under the economic system of planning and planning, the government is in charge of everything, power is centralized, and the institutions are huge and bloated. Corresponding to this is the lack of social functioning. The effect is weakened, forming a top-heavy situation.
The government restricts society, and also makes its own functions rigid, ineffective, and burdened.
The implementation of reform and opening up has changed from a planned economy to a market economy, and at the same time, the role of the government is also changing. The government is both the leader and the object of reform. The key to establishing a socialist market economy lies in the fact that the political reserve first consciously completes self-revolution.
At present, the government itself is gradually changing. Government agencies should be abolished if they should be abolished, and those that should be streamlined should be reduced. It is possible to transfer a large number of downsized government workers to the grassroots level.
At the same time, efforts should be made to reduce the fiscal deficit, control government expenditures, relax restrictions, change the system of state-owned enterprises, and implement the separation of duties between government and enterprises. Some of the functions that had been performed by the Council were transferred to market functions.
The functions that the government needs to perform should be to formulate rules, do a good job in planning, coordinate and supervise, and provide services.
The government is not only the superstructure of society, but also a kind of production relation, which is determined by the economic foundation and the level of development of the productive forces, and undertakes the heavy task of opening up a road for the development of the productive forces. In the fierce market competition mechanism, the structure of the big government will inevitably find it difficult to meet the needs of the new situation in the new period, which is not conducive to economic development, and reform will become an inevitable trend.
On the contrary, the social structure of a small government and a large society can improve the work efficiency of the government, strengthen the proper functions of the government, facilitate the stimulation and release of the inherent potential of society, and better promote the development of productive forces.
To sum up, the administrative power of the government must be effectively supervised by the society!
Attached to the most embarrassing part of this report is the first time that Yang Weiping reached out to ask for the power of the No. 1 chief!
He demanded that he concurrently serve as chairman of the State Planning Commission, and at the same time further increase the original planning functions of the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense.
The old men such as the No. 1 and No. 2 leaders are worried about how to put more burden on Director Xiao Yang again.
It is important to know that since Yang Weiping became the director of the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense, he has made too many contributions to the country. Now he is in the ranks of ministerial-level substantive officials, and if he rises further, he can only be at the vice-national level.
If this really promotes him to the vice-national level, I am afraid that he will have to attract the criticism of many old comrades.
Now, since Director Xiao Yang has taken the initiative to ask for the post of chairman of the State Planning Commission, it is better to simply push the boat down the river and hand over all the work of the Planning Commission to him.
In any case, Vice Premier Yu Qiuli is currently serving as vice premier of the State Planning Commission, and it is just the right time to lighten the burden on Vice Premier Yu by handing over the chairman of the Planning Commission to Yang Weiping, who will continue to serve as secretary of the party group of the Planning Commission.
Vice Premier Yu, who was born in the military, has always seen and remembered Director Xiao Yang's outstanding contributions to the Chinese People's Liberation Army in the Annan War. Mian Ming also praised Director Xiao Yang's report on "Recognizing the Strategic Guidelines for the Great Development of the Southwest" submitted to the State Council. He can finally rest assured that such a young and energetic young and energetic man who understands both industry and economics and scientific research and military affairs will take over the work of the State Development Planning Commission.
On September 9, 1979, Yang Weiping was formally appointed by the State Council as the director of the State Planning and Economic Commission. He is also the deputy secretary of the party group.
The first thing Director Yang did when he took office as chairman of the State Development Planning Commission was to comprehensively implement the information society project.
The information society is a technological economic and social form after the industrial society. It is also known as the "post-industrial society".
An industrially underdeveloped country can directly develop information technology and make a leap transition to an information society. In this way, we can make use of the information of scientific and technological achievements in the world and avoid detours.
United States. It was in 1956 that it entered the information society.
Japan entered the information society in 1966.
When the developed countries of the West entered the information society, the Chinese people did not know what the information society was.
Information awareness. It directly reflects the level of modernization of people's social consciousness. It also reflects an open and enterprising spirit and a sense of pursuing scientific decision-making. It is based on the value of knowledge and oriented towards obtaining benefits.
To this end, Yang Weiping has set up an information development management office in the State Development Planning Commission. It has also promulgated the corresponding and targeted "Information Industry Protection Law and Implementation Rules".
Since the mass production of 16M memory and 3.2G hard disk in Huaxia, the small personal computer using the Loongson 286 microprocessor developed by the National Computer Research Center has been rapidly promoted in mainland China.
Huaxia Lenovo Computer Group Co., Ltd., which was established by the integration of Beijing Radio No. 9 Factory and Huhai Radio No. 13 Factory, launched Lenovo 286 personal computer. Under the regulation and control of the national planning, it has taken the lead in popularizing the two major systems of banking and postal services, and the provincial and municipal government organs will soon be the second batch of popularization units.
At the same time as the establishment of Lenovo Computer Group, Yang Weiping secretly instructed Jenny in Hong Kong to immediately establish MITS (Huhai) Computer Company in Shanghai.
MITS, Inc. It was the world's first personal computer company that Jenny bought from American Ed Roberts for $8 million in mid-October 1977.
At that time, Roberts, the owner of MITS, lost a lawsuit with Bill Gates over BASIC software. Just when Roberts's heart was cold, Jenny, who happened to be back to her home in Georgia's Asian countryside for a vacation, told her about what happened to her neighbor.
Jenny called Yang Da's boss who was in Kenya at the time, Yang Weiping heard that MITS was the world's first professional personal computer company, and the company's owner Ed Roberts had just finished a lawsuit with Bill Gates, so he said without hesitation that eight million dollars was worth even if he bought MITS shell company, not to mention that there was also an Ed Roberts who developed BASIC software with Bill Gates.
Knowing that the acquirer was Dr. John Young, the father of the global nano era, Roberts, who had already died of personal computer development, suddenly became ambitious.
Roberts pressed for a stake in the rejuvenated MITS, and in the end, he paid $3 million in cash for only 10 percent of the company's shares, plus the position of the company's CEO.
Now, Roberts, who has received $30 million from the company, is working with Dr. Wu Gou, a computer research maniac, in Huaxia to study the Windows system plan of Linux with GB1978 Chinese code.
Yang Weiping didn't understand software programming, but he knew what the Linux and Windows operating systems were. He knows that the future development of personal computer operating systems must be that these two systems cannot be wrong. Regardless of whether Wu Hook and Roberts can develop it, they just handed over a research material of the nature of a thesis to these two and left it alone.
MITS Computer Co., Ltd. has set up branches in the United States, Hong Kong and Europe, and its business model is in accordance with the direct sales model provided by Yang Weiping, and its performance has been quite popular.
The 16M memory and 3.2G hard disk technology launched by the Swiss Tiangong Laboratory has undoubtedly given a shot in the arm for the development of the global personal computer industry.
China's personal computer industry has undoubtedly joined the first echelon.
With the development of personal computer technology, the information society in China was informed in a timely manner, which was the first step for Yang Weiping to use the state's planning function to start and implement China's tertiary industry.
At present, as educated youths from all parts of the country return to the cities, it has already begun to have an impact on the in-service workers of state-owned enterprises and township and town collective enterprises throughout the country.
The issue of how to arrange the work and study of educated youths who have returned to the city has become a major social issue that must be resolved in China at present.
Colleges and universities and vocational and technical schools can absorb some educated youths to return to school. The part of the people who can't afford to pass the exam can only be slowly digested through the promotion of the tertiary industry.
Ensuring the steady growth and continuous growth of the contingent of industrial workers in Huaxia is a hard task assigned by Yang Weiping for himself.
In Yang Weiping's plan, colleges and universities will not only not expand their enrollment, but will also continue to raise the threshold year by year. The expansion and expansion of intermediate and senior vocational and technical schools in various provinces and cities across the country has been included in the ranks of important projects in the Seventh Five-Year Plan.
Industry and agriculture are the two major components of the social economy.
China was founded on agriculture, and its industry was relatively backward. The changes that are taking place are reversing this pattern and forming a new trend in the industrial structure.
National industrialization is the inevitable way to become a strong country, but while developing industry, we must not ignore or even despise the development of agriculture.
The idea of heavy industry over peasants must be curbed from now on!
Industry and agriculture are supposed to be mutually reinforcing and complementary. If only agriculture feeds the industry, but there is no feedback and support from the industry, the development of agriculture lags behind seriously, and this kind of skewed industrial structure will inevitably affect the development of the entire national economy.
In a society with great industrial development, the shrinkage of the scale of agriculture is inevitable, but the coordinated development of the economy can be achieved through the high efficiency of agriculture.
Under the circumstance that China's agriculture is still relatively backward, it is undoubtedly a road that can be tried by establishing a number of middle and senior vocational and technical schools related to agricultural science and technology in various provinces and cities across the country, and using the scientific concept of development to promote the development of agricultural mechanization and intensification in China.
Rational planning of the mutual promotion and development of industry and agriculture can give correct guidance to the urbanization strategy to a certain extent, so as to avoid the emergence of unchecked and blind urbanization of rural areas. It can be clearly established that the path of urbanization must be a planned, relatively balanced and differentiated development strategy. To achieve a reasonable layout of small and medium-sized cities in the country, moderate scale, complete infrastructure, beautiful environment, reduce industrial pollution.
One of the most important functions of the State Development Planning Commission is to formulate correct strategic development plans and guidelines for the state.
And this aspect is undoubtedly Yang Weiping's strongest point. He does not need to be an economic expert, he only needs to tell the various functional departments of the State Development Planning Commission what is the correct direction, which can help them avoid detours and make fewer mistakes when formulating various policies.
