Cen Ruohan was anxious, and when he saw that Chen Mingyuan had rejected a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, he wanted to persuade him, but when he saw the old man's face like a black cloud pressing down on the city, he could only endure it temporarily.

The old man was really angry, today, he saw that his grandson had changed his normality, not only was he obedient and polite, but also came to visit him sickly, thanking his grandson for his filial piety and the remembrance of his deceased son, he would ruthlessly snub Chen Xiaomei's family, and entrusted this important task to Yang Xiuning's mother and son, hoping that Chen Mingyuan could take this opportunity to get exercise and gradually take over the family industry, but he didn't expect that this unworthy descendant would live up to his hard work after all!

Seeing that the old man's face was full of anger and disappointment, Chen Mingyuan hurriedly explained: "Grandpa, it's not that I refuse to accept this responsibility, but judging from the current situation, I personally think that our family should not rashly intervene in such a huge state-owned enterprise restructuring plan." ”

"Mingyuan, what are you talking nonsense, why don't you hurry up and apologize to your grandfather and admit your mistake?" Chen Guoliang said in a deep voice, "If you don't want to do it, just say it, there's no need to make up excuses!" ”

Chen Mingyuan said without changing his face: "Third uncle, I understand that your consideration is to take this opportunity to respond to the country's call for economic reform and play an exemplary role, but the original intention is good, it does not mean that the result will be good, there are always positive and negative sides to things, especially if we want to do great things, we can't just see the good side, you say this is the truth, right?" ”

Chen Guoliang was speechless for a while.

"What do you mean, tell me."

The old man suppressed the unhappiness in his heart, and temporarily put back the hand holding the booklet, if the answer he got was not satisfactory to him, he was almost going to give up this grandson, at most he would raise one more descendant in the family, as for the important task of inheriting the development of the family, he still had to set up another candidate!

It's a matter of success or failure!

Chen Mingyuan quickly sorted out his thoughts and said without hurrying: "Grandpa, I have absolutely no intention of disobeying you and the third uncle, but through a few years of study in the university, combined with the current situation of our country, I think that although such a large-scale reform of state-owned enterprises can optimize the economic structure, it has also brought many drawbacks that cannot be ignored, and must be carefully considered." ”

The old man laughed silently: "Drawbacks...... Are you referring to the massive wave of layoffs? ”

Chen Mingyuan nodded and said: "That's right, this is also the most obvious drawback in the short term, if the livelihood of these laid-off workers is not properly handled, it is easy to cause social contradictions in stages." ”

"At this point, the central government has already made perfect arrangements, and you are not yet to the point of worrying about the country and the people." Chen Guoliang laughed angrily, a yellow-haired boy, but after reading books for a few years, he actually boasted in front of the officials of the national ministries and commissions and the elders of the republic, "Also, you just talk about it at home, don't talk casually outside, the policy of the central government, you can't question and oppose it at will, ordinary people can express their opinions and opinions, but you can't!" ”

Now that no one can stop the general trend of reform, if the Chen family wants to rise up, they must follow the general trend, whether it is action or thought, they cannot go against the grain, if Chen Mingyuan's words are spread, if they really want to go online, the whole family will become the target of the public!

When he said this, Chen Guoliang's face was cold for a while, and even with a warning tone, which silenced many people present, although the old man is the nominal head of the family, but after all, he has retreated behind the scenes, and in terms of power in front of the curtain, no one in the Chen family can compare with Chen Guoliang, in front of the whole clan, so scolding his nephew, it is conceivable that he is really angry.

Seeing Chen Guoliang glaring at a pair of angry eyes, Chen Mingyuan confirmed his guess, it seems that the third uncle is indeed very supportive of Zhou Qifeng's resolution, and at the same time wants the family to take the opportunity to swallow the assets of Yuanda Heavy Industries, so as to fully participate in the tide of state-owned enterprise reform.

Presumably, soon after, the decision-making report he submitted to the Central Research Group was bound to put these ideas into practice, but unfortunately it backfired, and the report finally made Chen Guoliang go through major ups and downs, from a promising faction to no one cared about, and even the family was also greatly damaged.

Stabilizing his mind, Chen Mingyuan said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "I believe that the central leadership will not sit idly by and ignore this matter, third uncle, and I also understand that although this will bring short-term analgesia, it will be very beneficial to the long-term development of the country's economy." ”

Seeing that he was calm, the old man was inexplicably a little whimsical, and waved his hand and said: "Just talk about it as a common saying, Mingyuan is still less and nothing more, you and Xiuning will have time to teach more." ”

After a pause, he asked, "Mingyuan, you said that this is a short-term drawback, is there a long-term drawback?" ”

Chen Mingyuan nodded, and in the eyes of everyone, he said with a straight expression: "That's right, now it seems that if state-owned assets continue to be merged on a large scale, the most likely long-term drawback is that a group of Chinese oligarchs will be born in the future!" ”

"Oligarchs?!"

The old man was shocked, and unexpectedly remembered the power of several oligarchs in the northern neighboring countries!

You must know that the big oligarchs in the northern neighboring countries are the big capitalists who got rich overnight by embezzling state assets in the process of state privatization!

Seeing that the old man gradually thought of it with himself, Chen Mingyuan patiently explained: "Grandpa, you are clear, after the great changes in the north, they began to move towards the road of comprehensive privatization, but gave birth to a powerful oligarch, not only control the country's economy and energy lifeline, but also control the country's political situation, at the most serious time, they can even remove the prime minister at will, and the power is so monstrous that it overrides the state power!" ”

"Of course, I am not saying that our country will repeat the mistakes of the past, but we have to guard against it, once the oligarchic phenomenon occurs in the process of economic system reform in the country, the most obvious problem is that the gap between the rich and the poor is rapidly widened, and resources and wealth are concentrated in the hands of a small number of people, resulting in constant social contradictions, which is not only not conducive to the long-term peace and stability of the country, but also runs counter to the original intention of reform!"

The old man's expression was cloudy, and he raised his finger and motioned for him to continue.

Chen Mingyuan said eloquently: "As we all know, those oligarchs in the north have one thing in common, they all rely on the encroachment of state-owned assets to make a rapid fortune, and the northern authorities obviously realize that if this continues, the country will sooner or later fall into chaos, and has started a series of actions to crack down on the oligarchs, as evidenced by the recent escapes." ”

"Our country's reform and opening up has been for many years, due to the proper policy and regulation, the main industry and energy lifeline is still in the hands of the state, but similar situations will not occur, but due to the different local conditions, there are many problems, many local governments in order to get rid of some poor efficiency of state-owned enterprises, most of them take the means of contracting and leasing, some simply like Yuanda Heavy Industry, directly used' Although the one-size-fits-all approach can raise the local economic level in the short term, it will inevitably attract the covetousness of some speculators, which will not only hurt the feelings of many employees of state-owned enterprises and the people, but also easily cause the loss of state-owned assets invisibly......"

Chen Mingyuan has a deep understanding of this, since the state established economic development as the primary goal, many local leaders in order to quickly accumulate the achievements of promotion, the phenomenon of selling state-owned enterprises at a low price has gradually become popular, so as to quickly raise the local economic index, but there is a good saying, there is management, there is power, there is power, there is easy to breed corruption, in this way, it has also made a number of years later, the power and money transactions have become more and more intense, almost to the point of accumulation!

"Mingyuan, what nonsense are you talking about!"

Zhang Zili finally couldn't hold it anymore and retorted: "According to what you mean, is it possible that our family is abusing power for personal gain and wants to take the opportunity to embezzle state-owned assets?" Dig into the corners of socialism?! ”

"You took it out of context, cousin."

Chen Mingyuan chuckled: "But you also got to the point, our family is rich and powerful, but after all, it is not a good church, even if you want to save those state-owned enterprises that are on the verge of bankruptcy, you have to do what you can, otherwise, not only will you drag the family into the quagmire, maybe, but you also have to give people a handle, haven't you heard a saying?" Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind, if you are the leader of the central government, how would you feel when you see our family swallowing up so many state-owned industries in one go? Do you think our family wants to save the country and the people or take the opportunity to make a fortune? ”

"Don't tell me how selfless and great our family's purpose is, even if I believe you believe in the family, it is another matter for outsiders to believe it or not, unless you can make a military order in advance, and put Yuanda Heavy Industry on the right track without reducing a single employee, and then return it to the country with both hands after the most reluctance, and at the same time not let our family have a little loss!"

In just a few words, Zhang Zili's mouth was blocked, and his face turned red, as if his mouth was stuffed with pickles!

When did this kid become so eloquent?

Chen Mingyuan turned his head and looked earnest: "Grandpa, I know that you are concerned about the survival of state-owned enterprises such as Yuanda Heavy Industry, and there are tens of thousands of employees, but there are still big loopholes in this model of merging state-owned enterprises. ”

The old man looked at the grandson steadily, as if he wanted to see him thoroughly, and after half a sound, he said in a low voice: "According to your meaning, our family should stay out of this matter?" ”

Chen Mingyuan said slowly: "At least at this stage, it is not the time to come out stronger, now the northern neighbor is hitting the oligarchs with a heavy fist, it is difficult to guarantee that our country will not be affected by it, after all, all this has been learned ten years ago!" ”

A word to wake up the dreamer!

His tone was flat and steady, but it was like a steel needle straight into the hearts of Chen Guoliang, Yang Xiuning and others, and he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat when he thought of the terrifying consequences that might arise!

The political storm ten years ago is still fresh in everyone's memory!

The old man leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes and said nothing, a few fingers slowly tapping on the armrest, and no one dared to interfere.

When faced with a big and difficult problem, the old man has always been like this.

Chen Mingyuan's palms were already sweating, and he almost forgot that he was seriously ill.

After about a cup of tea, when the old man opened his eyes again, a wisp of sharp light flew by, re-examined his grandson, and laughed silently: "You kid, you have been studying outside for a few years, and the ink has risen a lot, and you and your mother and uncle have pointed out the country in front of me, your mother, and uncle." ”

Chen Mingyuan was overjoyed, although the old man seemed to be joking, but it was obvious that he recognized his idea!

"But it's a good thing that I've made some progress, and I have to keep it up." The old man praised two sentences for the first time, and his thin cheeks were filled with a smile of satisfaction.

The Chen family has a child who has just grown up!

Chen Mingyuan said a few words modestly, then turned around and walked back to his position, and accidentally caught a glimpse of the smile on his mother's face, and couldn't help but be stunned.

It seems that it has been a long time since I have seen my mother smile at me......

However, it does feel good!
