Qi Tianxiang's opening remarks were frank and sincere, especially his calm demeanor, polite appearance, and humble words, showing the demeanor of scholars and literati, and immediately won the warm applause response from the audience, the applause conveyed the feelings of everyone, and the expectation of the content of Qi Tianxiang's keynote speech.

Qi Tianxiang looked at the different expressions of everyone in the audience, and slowly started his speech: "Market and mayor are a pair of unrelated terms, and when put together, we want to find out the relationship between the two. In a general sense, it is believed that the market economy is the economy of the legal system, which is a community composed of enterprises and consumers, forming a relatively stable supply and demand relationship, accompanied by each other, co-dependent, and coordinated development. The mayor is the maker and maintainer of the market rules, and once the rules are formulated, the mayor retreats to the role of service, allowing the market to play freely without interference. Many foreign economics books have specifically discussed this topic, I will not repeat it, you can refer to "Market Theory", "Contract Theory", "Variation and Influence of Market Entities" and other monographs. ”

"These monographs were born early and late, including London in the early stage of capitalist society, the United States in the middle and late periods, and the era of great changes in the period of science and technology and information revolution. Qi Tianxiang said slowly and clearly: "I have seen very few expositions under the conditions of the socialist market economy, and even if there are, there are mostly articles and very few monographs, which also shows that under certain conditions, our market economy practice has gone too far, and the theoretical expositions are far from keeping up, resulting in a formal disconnection. This is just like the growth of a child, the development of the body and the formation of behaviors determined by thinking, which require not only external things such as clothing, food, housing and transportation, but also the constraints of education and rules, and we are missing in this regard. ”

Qi Tianxiang's expression became solemn, and his tone began to be a little worried, "The marketization of foreign countries under the leadership of the spirit of contract has both rules and punishments, and is based on a system of self-discipline and other laws, and there are strict rules for market entry and exit, but these are a new topic and new challenges in our country. It is not only the moral bottom line that is challenged, but also the bottom line of the law, and I don't need to give too many examples to illustrate this. The milk powder incidents, food safety incidents, and incidents that seriously damage the interests of consumers around us are all torturing our legal system, as well as our moral and cultural system, so what's wrong? And what to do? ”

"It is obviously unrealistic to wait for the legal and moral system to be perfected before implementing marketization. It is obviously impossible to negate marketization and return to the era of planned economy. Waiting is not the way out, and it is even more undesirable to completely deny and resurge, and this practice of pouring dirty water and throwing it away with the child is even more undesirable. So what to do? This is the theme I want to discuss, the mayor and the market play a role together, and work together to protect the escort, which is a useful attempt and exploration. ”

Qi Tianxiang didn't wait for any reaction from everyone, and continued: "In our country's management system, the mayor is appointed by the people's congress through the election of the people's congress deputies, and is the head of government who represents the people of the city and exercises the functions of urban management. Whether it is a government official or an entrepreneur, it can be clearly realized that our legal system is not unsound, and the laws and regulations for the construction of the market system can also be said to be applicable. Is there still a lack of observance of laws, lax enforcement of the law, and arbitrary distortion of laws? Can these be changed by the market and by the enterprise? These must be solved by the mayor who is responsible for government management functions, and the mayor must have the courage to regulate, supervise and regulate, and only after establishing a good and orderly market-oriented environment, the mayor can withdraw from the market, otherwise it is a dereliction of duty, that is, irresponsible, and not a competent good mayor. ”

When Qi Tianxiang's speech finally stopped, the audience immediately erupted in thunderous applause, Qi Tianxiang looked at the audience kindly, slowed down and said: "Sitting in the audience is the mayor of various prefecture-level cities in Hehai Province, you also have such feelings, you can ask yourself, as the mayor, how are we doing in establishing a good market environment?" Under the rhetoric of looking for the market, not looking for the mayor, what has our mayor done for the enterprise? ”

"Please forgive the host, I'm a little off topic, I'm sorry." Qi Tianxiang retracted his gaze from the audience, looked at the host and said apologetically, and then continued the topic just now: "The self-discipline consciousness of enterprises, the rigidity of the law, and the binding order of the market are not mature now, and it can also be said that our marketization is imperfect, and many primitive problems have not been solved." From political indoctrination and spiritual inspiration, as well as moral restraint, to the legalization of marketization and economic order, it will take several decades to accomplish such changes and changes, and unexpected changes require the construction of a perfect legal system, as well as the need for honest and efficient law enforcement personnel and law enforcement systems, all of which must be completed or established in a short period of time, and it is simply impossible. This is because it is even more impossible to fundamentally change the thinking system of the official standard and change the traditional cultural relics. ”

Qi Tianxiang's thinking is clear, the language is also very fluent, continued: "The market needs to be perfected, the mayor needs to do his duty, so that the seemingly contradictory problem is solved, at this stage, in addition to increasing the sense of self-discipline of enterprises, to establish and maintain market order with integrity and morality, the mayor should strengthen the construction of institutions, standardize and restrain internal management due diligence, to create a clean and efficient, legal and fair government system, and strive to do their own work." In addition, as the mayor of vested interests, it is necessary to do a good job in market development for the development and prosperity of the enterprise for the market-oriented construction, to change the service concept, to find the market for the enterprise, to provide better services for the progress of the enterprise and products, and to use the nanny's heart to do the waiter's work, only in this way can we stabilize the enthusiasm of enterprise production at this stage, stabilize market confidence, and achieve the effect of a virtuous circle. ”

"Moderator, dear government and entrepreneurs, marketization is not an overnight thing, and we need all of us to brainstorm and work together in order to usher in a bright future of socialist marketization with unique characteristics with sweat and hardship." Qi Tianxiang raised his voice and said to the audience with a smile: "This is the end of my speech, thank you." ”

Qi Tianxiang's wonderful speech sparked a resonance with the audience, and the applause lasted for a long time.
