Although it is said that Fan Wuxian arranged an undercover agent. went to the other party's company to collect evidence, but he also felt that it was not a good thing to wait like this, so he still ran to his father and chatted casually about government procurement.
"Centralized procurement is a good thing, all units were procured at will before, the problem is more serious, and now the government procurement approval and supervision system is adopted, and large amounts of procurement must be open to bidding, and the problem is solved at once." Fan Heng said.
Fan Wuxi immediately looked at his father Fan Heng with that kind of eyes as if he had seen an alien, and then said a little teasingly, "Dad, haven't you worked in the State Department for a few years, and your brain is a little rigid, right?" β
"What's wrong?" Fan Heng asked inexplicably.
"It's not right, it's just a big mistake!" Fan replied unceremoniously.
"Oh?" Fan Heng was stunned for a moment.
"What you're doing is actually making the scattered office procurement** more centralized." Fan Wuxian hit the nail on the head and pointed out the major loopholes in this.
This major loophole is actually caused by the imperfection of the system, and the government centralized procurement, which seems to be extremely fair, just and open, is generally the most likely to breed ** special zone, and through black-box operations, some seemingly impossible things will become extremely easy.
On the surface, black-box operations may seem like a departure from the formal system and procedures, but in reality. The widespread existence of this phenomenon has its deep institutional foundation. This institutional basis is precisely the formal system and formal procedures from which it intends to deviate. In other words, it is precisely the formal system itself that becomes the premise and condition for black-box operations.
"We people in business often use such a term - operation. The real essence of the so-called operation is to enable the things that cannot be done, or that may or may not be done, can be done in the end. Fan Wuxian said to Fan Heng, "Of course, the process of operation requires costs, but as long as the operation can be successful, the operator will obtain benefits greater than the operating cost, and the cost of operation will be used as the benefit of the power holder of the object of operation." All kinds of ** phenomena are ever-changing, but their basic laws and logic are generally like this. β
"You mean that today's centralized government procurement is actually a platform for breeding **?" Fan Heng asked rhetorically.
Fan Wuxian nodded and replied, "Obviously, this is the case, in real life, the phenomenon of black-box operations and the people who carry out black-box operations often become the direct targets of accusation, but in fact, the space for black-box operations is reserved in advance by the formal system." Because there is no space reserved in this way, there is no room for black-box operations. β
For example, the operation mentioned above, in the process of its implementation, it is not that it will not encounter procedures and rules, and if it does not encounter these procedures and rules, there is no need to operate.
"Exactly. The procedures or rules encountered in the operation are either too large or extremely flexible. Therefore, successful operation means navigating through the cracks and twisting the rules. The essence of the question, however, is, why can these procedures or rules be crossed and distorted? Fan Wuxian said to Fan Heng, "In most of the policies and regulations that currently exist in China, it only puts forward general and vague goals, and only puts forward quite principled requirements for the means to achieve such goals, such as how to do it in principle, to consider the actual situation, and to adapt measures to local conditions, which are typical characteristics of the operation of the coarse system." At the level of implementation, the degree of proceduralization and regularization is very low, and the executor has a large random disposal space, which is the basis of operation and the basic element of the formation. β
After Fan Heng heard this, he took a notebook and wrote it down, and then said to Fan Wuxi, "Your statement is relatively new and sharp, I should write it down, and then write it in the monograph, as a direct point of view to talk about anti-**." β
But that's not all. More importantly, driven by interests, protecting and even expanding the gray institutional space of black-box operations has become a conscious and conscious action to a certain extent.
In the relevant research, some people have found such a new trend, from interest rent-seeking to intentional rent-setting.
The so-called rent-setting is to use the power in hand to set up barriers and obstacles for the service objects of power, and directly collect or indirectly force relevant personnel and institutions to pay tolls that lead to legitimate rights and interests.
And many of this process of renting is achieved by expanding the gray space of the system.
On the contrary, some measures that can fundamentally narrow the gray space of the system and put an end to black-box operations, such as the proceduralization and openness of the exercise of power, have been hesitant in the reform. There is even the possibility that special interest groups will resist similar reforms by sensitizing the above-mentioned possible reform measures in order to protect or even expand the grey space of the system and the institutional conditions required for its dark box operation.
For example, in the reform of state-owned enterprises, they want to promote the sale of state-owned assets, but they are not interested in standardizing the procedures for selling state-owned assets, and even hint at the impossibility of standardization, and even make the process of selling state-owned assets mysterious and secretive.
"In fact, fundamentally speaking, the basis for the existence of black-box operations is the mystified power model. In our real life, ordinary official affairs and general economic and social life data often become secrets that ordinary people do not hear, and party and government organs are not places where people can enter and exit freely, but have become heavily guarded military centers, which is almost a normal phenomenon. During the Cultural Revolution, the mystification of power reached its zenith. At that time, social life was run by dozens or hundreds of central documents per year. And almost all of these documents are classified that are only allowed to be communicated to a certain level. Fan Wuxian simply opened his mouth and spit out, "In the process of more than 20 years of reform, the degree of mystification of power has changed, but the basic power model has not undergone fundamental changes. Under such a model of power, the black-box operation of power is almost inevitable. Although there are various internal rules and procedures for the operation of power, the high degree of mystification of government activities will inevitably cause the factors that restrain the operation of power in the dark box to lose sufficient power. β
Fan Wuxi and Fan Heng were in the room to discuss the root cause of ** and the dark box operation, Song Qing came in, sat for a while, listened to the father and son talk very devotedly, poured them a cup of tea, and then sat next to them and continued to listen.
"Then what do you think should be done to solve the problem of black-box operation of power and eliminate the root cause?" Fan Heng has memorized a lot of things in the notebook, in fact, his typing speed is also so-so, but as one of the leaders at the top, it is just a tradition to memorize things in a small notebook, and it seems that if he does not do so, he will not be able to reflect his own difference.
For example, when the Standing Committee members are in a meeting, they will definitely not bring a laptop to the meeting, and while listening to the speeches of the Standing Committee, they will use the laptop to record what they are interested in. Although there are also stenographers who take notes, no matter what, everyone always has to put two strokes on their little notebook.
"It's very simple, it's to promote the openness of government affairsβ" Fan replied, "In fact, this is very common in developed countries, as long as you ask what you want to do, you will immediately see all the processes, at a glance." β
Fan Heng nodded, in fact, the top level is also considering the issue of anti-corruption in the system, but he has not yet made up his mind for a while.
It is conceivable that the disclosure of government affairs information. It will fundamentally reduce the institutional space for black-box operations.
"In fact, we can use several local governments as pilots to vigorously promote the reform of the open and transparent operation of administrative power, clean up administrative power projects in accordance with the law, and disclose the operation process of government affairs." Fan Wuxian reminded, "By cleaning up power, and even publishing the list of mayor's powers, and making public the operation of government affairs, it will greatly reduce the breeding ground of **." You must know that sunlight is the natural enemy of **, and openness is the nemesis of **. Whether it is from the perspective of prevention and control from the source, or from the perspective of improving the ability to govern, we should explore the open and transparent operation mechanism of power, and further increase the intensity of power disclosure, otherwise, after ten years, power will become out of control, even if it can be cleaned up, it will take a lot of effort and pay a lot of price. β
Glancing at Fan Heng, who was taking notes in a small notebook, Fan Wuxian suddenly thought, "Well, if you want to make some changes, you might as well start by taking meeting minutes, and the next time the Standing Committee is held, bring your laptop directly." β
"Huh?" Fan Heng was stunned for a moment, then pinched his chin and thought for a while before saying, "Sounds good." β
In fact, the unchanged lifeless Standing Committee has long made Fan Heng feel a little tired, and Fan Wuxi's opinion is very much in line with his mind.
The afternoon meeting of the Standing Committee happened to be to discuss the follow-up handling of the plane collision incident.
After the 24 crew members of the US EP-3 reconnaissance plane left Hainan on 12 April and returned to the United States, what urgently needed to be dealt with was the remaining damaged reconnaissance plane.
Since the plane collision incident on 1 April, the US EP-3 reconnaissance plane has been parked at an airfield on China's Hainan Island. The plane that caused the accident is the most advanced electronic reconnaissance plane in the world today, and the United States currently has only 10 of them, which are deployed in Spain, Guam, and Florida on the US mainland.
Equipped with cutting-edge electronic reconnaissance equipment, it is the only land-based signals intelligence reconnaissance aircraft in the US Navy and is worth more than $80 million. Because the plane was expensive and it may contain important military intelligence, the crew of the US EP-3 reconnaissance plane returned home safely on 12 April. The United States is desperate to get this spy plane back.
"Come as you want, go as you want, where is it so easy, what kind of place do you think of China?" One of the Standing Committee members snorted unceremoniously and expressed his opinion.
In fact, when has China ever been afraid of the United States? Not to mention anything like the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea or to Resist US Aggression and Aid Vietnam, that is, when the Americans used the U2 high-altitude reconnaissance plane to help Taiwan invade the mainland's airspace to obtain intelligence information, we still used land-based missiles to shoot it down, and there were more than one of them.
Now I don't want to make a big move, but it's because everyone's main tone is to develop the economy, and with money and food, we can cope with everything when the time comes, but we don't have to worry about not having the strength to confront the Americans.
However, it is obviously not advisable to be bullied by others, and on the issue of dealing with the US EP-3 reconnaissance plane, everyone still has to come up with a more feasible plan that can disgust the Americans, forcing them to accept the conditions and go back to the United States in disgrace.
However, when dealing with the issue of US military aircraft, the US delegation was mainly led by the US side, and its members were mainly composed of officers from the Pentagon of the US Department of Defense and the US Pacific Headquarters, and only two officials from the US State Department participated.
These people had never dealt with the Chinese before, and as soon as they came over, they put on a commanding posture, which is also their usual attitude when dealing with other countries, and there were also people in the delegation who said that in the past, US planes had also made forced landings in other countries, and other countries had returned their planes to the United States very smoothly, and not only that, they had to fill up US planes.
"Do the fucking Spring and Autumn Dream-" Boss Zhu suddenly said angrily, "They still think this is the last year of the Manchu Qing Dynasty?!" β
"What is Comrade Fan Heng's opinion?" Chief One asked.
Fan Heng nodded, then flipped through it casually, took out a laptop from his briefcase, opened it skillfully, and put it on the table, and then called up some of the materials that Fan Wuxi had helped him sort out, and then coughed and said to the Standing Committee, "It's a bit immature for everyone's reference." β
Then he noticed that everyone had become silent, and he asked strangely, "Is there anything wrong?" β
"You've brought a laptopβ" A member of the Standing Committee said, pointing to Fan Heng's laptop.
"Yes, today's materials are all in it, and the time is in a hurry, so I brought it directly." Fan Heng replied calmly.
After the No. 1 chief saw it, he said with a little interest, "Use computers to work, this is good, Comrade Fan Heng, this year, do you want Xiao Fan to sponsor a batch of office computers for us, I guess there is no problem, right?" β
Fan Heng smiled, thinking that this could be regarded as agreeing to use a personal computer on the Standing Committee, so he replied, "No problem, but I think he will feel distressed, this guy is a little money fan." β
There are no pop-ups
