Chapter 170: The Problem of Cutting the Cake
Due to the rapid development of the domestic economy, the wealthy class has gradually begun to form.
In the north and south of the river, many businessmen with assets of more than 100 million yuan have begun to appear, and a rising class of civilians with Zhejiang and Guangdong businessmen as the leaders has been formed.
In this case, the attitude of the top management is also changing, for now, it is nothing more than three opinions, a positive opinion, that is, to promote the process, and to participate in it, to divide this tempting big cake, a moderate opinion, that is, to wait and see the change, neither for nor against, and a radical opinion, is to suppress these people, back to the era of suppressing the rich and helping the poor.
After several years of ideological struggle, a consensus has gradually reached among the top leaders that they should participate in the process and use the power of the stratum to obtain the greatest benefits and ensure that the foundation of the ruling party will not be shaken.
What is the basis of governance? Naturally, it is the economic power and the armed forces, or, the power of the people.
But for the time being, it is clear that the first two forces have a great advantage.
Therefore, before next year's party congress and before the change in the high-level structure, some economic structural adjustments are imperative.
"The so-called cutting of the cake is nothing more than to ensure a fair attitude, and everyone must be satisfied, otherwise the cake will not be cut." Ye Kai thought of this question, and couldn't help but ask the second old man a few more words, "What is the current tendency?" What can our old Ye family get in this division of interests? ”
The division of interests is a very big proposition, which may be implemented in the party's programmatic documents, and there are only a few sentences, and no one can see any tricks, but behind these few sentences, it is very likely that there is the rise of certain forces, the precipitation of certain forces, and the success or failure of certain big political and powerful families.
"The main thing is the interests of the reform of state-owned enterprises, which involves a wide range of issues, and now the dispute is very serious, but the Central Standing Committee members have not yet made a clear statement, and they always have to wait and see for a while to see the limelight before they can speak." The second old man replied.
"What are our Ye family's plans?" Ye Kai asked.
"Our opinions are not yet unified." The second old man said frankly, "You must know that although our Lao Ye family is a family with one surname, it is a large group that is attached to us and has common interests, and it is not easy to unify opinions." ”
"That's just as well." Ye Kai nodded, even with his current situation, he is not in contact with the side forces of the Ye family, the situation in the family must be relatively simple, but there are several members of the Central Political Bureau and dozens of members of the Central Committee, which is a great force.
Although Old Man Ye and Second Old Man both think that Ye Kai's performance is good, they are still very cautious in this kind of big thing, after all, outsiders don't know much about Ye Kai's ability, and it is estimated that it is easier for these members of the Political Bureau and the Central Committee to recognize Ye Ziping's ability, but if they want to recognize Ye Kai now, it is estimated that it is enough, after all, many of the things that Ye Kai planned are not visible.
The wealthy families in China, in Ye Kai's impression, later became famous, mainly from three sources, one of which is the rise of the grassroots, the most typical of which are Zhejiang merchants and Guangdong businessmen.
They are characterized by self-made businesses, with almost no background, growing step by step in fierce competition, and finally after ten years or even decades of struggle, they have created a wealthy family. Most of these businessmen are concentrated in competitive industries, and most of the industries they are engaged in are the most thoroughly marketized industries in China, with fierce competition and survival of the fittest.
The second is to start within the system and end with businessmen, or they are also officials and businessmen. The most typical is the merchants of southern Jiangsu. Their characteristic is that the founders first sought the opportunity to take charge of an enterprise within the system, and later became the actual controller of the joint-stock enterprise through restructuring.
The most typical is TCL's Li Dongsheng. Li Dongsheng was originally a manager appointed by the Huizhou municipal government to the enterprise, but through incremental reforms, he finally gained control of the enterprise, and the Li family gradually appeared among the wealthy in Chinese mainland. In Qingdao, Wang Hai, the president of Shuangxing, finally changed from an operator in the system to an independent businessman through restructuring.
The third is the red family, that is, a family similar to the Lao Ye family, or their collateral and branch families, this type of merchant family has deep political capital, a high starting point, a fast start, rapid development, and easy access to social resources.
Most of these red business families are engaged in trade, basic industries, energy and other industries that require approval. Industries such as the real estate industry, which require a large number of approval procedures and a large number of bank loans, are also the favorite areas of the red family, because the entry threshold is relatively high, and it is easy to keep competitors out.
In fact, in more developed commercial countries, it is very rare for a merchant family to continue to prosper for three generations, because they believe in a relatively complete market economy, and often face fierce competition, and it is very difficult to maintain prosperity for several generations. Although there are some old enterprises, they often maintain an unchanged trademark, and the real owner has already changed several times.
On the contrary, in East Asian countries such as Japan and South Korea, due to the widespread association of businessmen and politicians, the inheritance of merchant families is longer, for example, South Korea's Samsung Group has developed to the third generation, and Japan's Mitsubishi and Sumitomo have been inherited for several generations.
However, the business giants of Japan and South Korea are not without hidden worries, such as the rise of Hyundai Group, which is inseparable from the support of political forces, but due to the deep involvement in politics, the sequelae are also more obvious.
Congenital differences in origin will inevitably lead to differences in life achievements, and from a wealthy family, at the starting point of life, you will win the first step.
Especially in some special industries that need large funds and policy support, big families with political backgrounds have an innate advantage, in fact, seriously speaking, this is also an unfairness. The presence or absence of political affiliation, rather than the presence or absence of business skills, has become a measure of entry into certain fields, which objectively blocks the opportunity for the public to create wealth.
Nowadays, the division of interests planned by the top management is actually to use political advantages to intervene in some high-threshold industries, and finally control the right to speak in the entire industry.
For example, the energy industry, the banking industry, the insurance industry, the water conservancy and electric power, the communications industry, etc., all belong to this type of competition that is more sought-after in the competition of big political giants.
Like Ye Kai, who is willing to devote himself to the development of basic physical industries, it is really very rare in the system, and it is even more rare to see someone like him who can make crazy money from the pockets of foreigners.
"However, since it is a benefit sent to the door, it cannot be turned away." Ye Kai pondered for a while, and then said to the second old man, "Oil, electricity, banking, energy industry, although these are easy to make money, but they will also attract criticism in the future, our family has a way, if not, just bypass it, you can choose some emerging industries to develop, and when they find that there is a lot of money to be made, we have formed an industry access threshold, and such a threshold is formed through the survival of the fittest in the market, and there is also a certain technological monopoly, and it will be much more secure at that time." ”
"The idea is good, but just the emerging industry, I'm afraid it will suffer a big loss, and the traditional industry, we also share a part of it, even if it is transferred through other ways later." Although the second old man admired Ye Kai's ambition, he couldn't help but remind him.
After all, there are still many collateral and branch people under the Lao Ye family, and if these people see that the Lao Ye family does not get their due part in the distribution of benefits, it is estimated that their hearts will not be very stable.
If you can't get the benefits you deserve, it means that your position in the top is not stable, and it doesn't work to speak, what do you let the people below think? This is actually a very real problem.
Even if it is to calm people's hearts, it is impossible for the old Ye family not to go all out in the competition.
"Well, I see. There must be face, and there must be inside, and this matter really needs to be thought through. Ye Kai immediately understood what the second old man meant.
The two discussed together for a while, and basically set the tone.
Regardless of other industries, the energy industry won CNOOC, and then Ye Kai repeatedly emphasized that he must win the dominance of the mobile communications industry.
"Mobile communications, there are not a few users in total, and the profit is not as good as the investment." The second old man was a little unimpressed.
A big brother costs tens of thousands of yuan, plus the cost of seventy-seven eighty-eight, the monthly cost, not that the huge rich can't afford it at all, how much development prospects can such a high-end industry have?
"This understanding is wrong...... Ye Kai immediately said, "When the metal aluminum was refined, the price was compared to gold, and Napoleon used an aluminum basin, which felt quite face-saving, and you look at it now, what kind of situation is it?" ”
"It's come and go, but more than a hundred years have passed." The second old man also reminded.
Do we have to be the predecessors of "the predecessors planted trees, and the descendants enjoyed the shade"?
"Second grandfather, don't worry, it won't take a hundred years, you will definitely be able to see the days when users skyrocket, but you can't count the money." Ye Kai assured the second old man.
"Okay, anyway, we are fighting for this thing, it is just for you descendants, and you are the ones who listen to you." The second old man laughed, "It's just that when the time comes, you make a wrong decision and you have no money to spend, don't blame me." ”
"You can rest assured." Ye Xingxing thought, is there any other industry that can absorb gold faster than the mobile communication industry?
It is estimated that even if they sell white powder and arms, they will not be as fast and easy as they can make money!
