Liu Weihong smiled slightly, there was a hint of meaning in his smile, and even a trace of bitterness and helplessness.

A few months ago, Deng Zhonghe said this, which was a typical insincerity. Not long after Liu Weihong arrived in Linqing County, he saw the county's three-year economic development plan made by Deng Zhonghe. Deng Zhonghe set the main force of development on "private funds" and proposed to increase the intensity of attracting investment. After three months, Deng Zhonghe "appreciated" his insistence on taking the road of nationalization.

But now Liu Weihong has no doubts about Deng Zhonghe's words.

It is estimated that Deng Zhonghe's plan was also conceived in the second half of last year or even the first half of the year, when the general political situation in China had not yet undergone drastic changes. Deng Zhonghe talked a lot about "attracting investment" and encouraging private funds to enter the mineral field, which is not considered a "violation", which is very consistent with his young and pioneering image. However, the sudden change in the wind and clouds, the huge [***], not only affected the domestic trend, but also affected the international trend.

At present, the world's major developed countries, instigated by the United States, are joining hands to exclude China. Diplomatically isolating us, imposing economic sanctions on us, the economic situation immediately became extremely serious.

At the same time, a new wave of conservatism has also been set off in China, which has raised various questions about the major policy of reform and opening up. Later, the controversy of "surname society or surname capital", which set off a huge storm, has opened the curtain for the two. In many places, some radical reformist officials are facing great difficulties, and some officials have even been replaced.

As far as Liu Weihong knows, many radical officials who insisted on making great strides in this great controversy paid a heavy price. Although this controversy was gradually shelved after the supreme chief's southern tour, and the country also determined to unswervingly follow the path of reform and opening up, that was two years later. A considerable number of the officials who have fallen have no chance of making a comeback.

The benefits have been redistributed, and no one will give up their place to the pioneers who have been "sacrificed". Although it turns out that they were right in their insistence!

The political game is so realistic and cruel.

Deng Zhonghe's level is lower, and his political sense is naturally not so sharp. But by now, he naturally knows the trend above, and it is inevitable to change his words.

is a county magistrate, but he doesn't have the capital to work against the general trend.

And Liu Weihong's helplessness and bitterness also lie in this. He doesn't have the capital to go against the general trend. In the face of the turbulent historical trend, even if he is a reborn, even if he is the grandson of the old Liu family, he can only follow the trend and make the right choice. It is unimaginable to want to change the whole trend. Therefore, in his planning plan, there is a general outline that adheres to the principle of nationalization and takes the political axe as the main body of development.

It's very difficult to do that.

It is less difficult to attract investment and attract foreign investment.

During this time, Liu Weihong has always kept in touch with ** Shang. As the time of ** Shang staying in Jiangkou is getting longer and longer, and Yun Hanmin has regained his foothold, the old Yun family has stabilized, and the business of "Hongyu Company" is becoming more and more prosperous.

Liu Weihong is now in charge of a place, and he can use this network.

However, it is necessary to adhere to the road of nationalization and insist on taking the development of political axes as the main body, and the foundation of Jiashan District is really too poor, it is simply no foundation, and every year it will fall into deficit and suffer financial subsidies. Under such conditions, it is difficult to insist on taking the development of political axes as the main body.

But you have to write like this, and you have to say that.

Liu Weihong knows very well that no matter what kind of construction it is, in China, you must not forget the premise of "political leadership". If you make a mistake on the route, it will be useless for you to make great achievements in economic construction, and at most it will be just a relatively good gun. And Liu Weihong's goal is by no means to become a "gun", but to become the hand that holds the gun!

Of course, when the general outline is established, there is still room for negotiation on how to do it.

"County Magistrate Deng, the reason why such a general outline was set in this way is also after repeated consideration and discussion. The foundation of Jiashan District is too poor, and there is no accumulation at all. If we follow the path of development with private funds and foreign capital, although the results will be quicker, there will also be great drawbacks. ”

Liu Weihong said with a deep groan.

Deng Zhonghe's expression froze and said, "Oh, I want to hear about it." ”

He really didn't expect Liu Weihong to say such a paragraph, it sounded like he was completely refuting the plan he had made before. But Deng Zhonghe was able to be a county magistrate in his thirties, so naturally he was not so superficial. It is expected that Liu Weihong is not specifically targeting him. I would like to hear what are the major drawbacks of relying on private forces to develop the economy.

"First of all, what is the biggest advantage of our Linqing County? It is coal resources and other mineral resources. Mineral resources are non-renewable. If we just sell resources, we can achieve quick results in the short term, but in the long run, the disadvantages are obvious. The political axe handed over the right to exploit mineral resources to merchants, and we received only a small part of the taxes. And the value of the resource itself is completely lost to the hands of the merchants, and the political axe cannot gain anything from it. Of course, when these resources are developed, they will feed some people, such as miners, transport fleets and other service industries, which is a benefit. When people have living money in their hands, the local economy can accelerate its development. But these benefits, I don't think are enough. Moreover, this model is likely to lead to collusion between officials and businessmen, corruption and bribery, etc. With the covert help of officials, it is not difficult to evade taxes. In the final analysis, the large-scale introduction of private funds to develop mineral resources can only enrich the private sector and lose the public. To be more specific, it is to fatten those rich and powerful individuals, the rich become richer, and the poor remain poor. The gap between the rich and the poor has further widened, and hidden social dangers have deepened. That's the first point. ”

Liu Weihong said slowly, his face solemn.

Deng Zhonghe's face also became more and more serious, and there was a look of shock in his eyes.

It's not that Liu Weihong's truth is profound, but his age, people can't imagine that he will see so thoroughly and so far-reaching.

"The second point is that the government does not get much revenue from it. It is certainly not appropriate to be financially rich, but only to enrich private individuals. Folk wealth and political axe wealth are two completely different concepts. We can't control private funds, at most we can only guide. Political axe finance is what we can control. County Magistrate Deng, in order for the local economy to develop, the political axe must lead several major projects as the basic pillars. In addition to taxes, we must also have other sources of revenue. Otherwise, just more and more staff members will collapse the finances, let alone concentrate capital investment. ”

Deng Zhonghe bowed his head slightly, and pondered: "Well, it makes sense...... Secretary Liu, please continue! ”

Liu Weihong smiled indifferently and said: "The third point is how long the current financial system can be maintained. ”

Deng Zhonghe was taken aback, and said suspiciously: "Secretary Liu, what do you mean by this?" ”

If the two points that Liu Weihong talked about earlier were just pure economic construction strategies, the latter sentence surprised Deng Zhonghe. Liu Weihong, he even doubted that the system would change in the future.

"The financial system we are implementing now is that the local government is large and the central government is small. After the local government collects taxes, it will be transferred to the central government according to a certain percentage. The localities have money to use and are relatively wealthy, but the central government is short on hand, and it must rely on such means as issuing treasury bills and increasing the proportion of local government to solve the central government's fiscal deficit. I don't think this system will last long. If the central government wants to change the face of the whole country, it must focus on investment, that is, it must have money in hand. I estimate that perhaps in a few years, the central government will have to change the fiscal and taxation system...... Well, it's almost a given! ”

Liu Weihong said with certainty.

In fact, according to Lau's memory, the tax-sharing system will indeed be implemented in a few years. Next year, Mingzhu's powerful figure will soon enter the State Council, and the tax sharing system is imperative.

As soon as the equal-share tax system is established, all good tax sources and taxes will be collected by the central government, and the provinces and regions will also control the good tax sources and taxes in their own hands, and at the county level, there will basically be very little left. As for the townships and towns, if there is no support from enough township enterprises, they can only fight the peasants' ideas, and it is not enough, they can only borrow money to settle their lives.

In later generations, it was extremely common for the vast majority of townships and towns in the country to collapse financially and accumulate high debts.

The tax-sharing system unravels one dead knot, but leaves another dead knot.

"Reform of the fiscal and taxation system? How to change? ”

Deng Zhonghe asked in shock.

Liu Weihong said: "I don't know how to change it. However, the central and provincial governments will certainly not tolerate the current situation and will collect good tax sources. No matter who is in power, they must first consider the finance at their own level. At that time, it is estimated that a considerable part of the tax on mineral resources will be collected from the top, and very few will fall to the county and township level. So, it's time to plan ahead. We don't just collect taxes, we have to operate. Mineral resources are our biggest pillar and we have to find a way to do that. The political axe has become the main body of development, and we will also account for the majority of the profits generated in the future. It's a long-term solution. With a steady stream of fiscal revenues, the government can speed up the pace of infrastructure construction, concentrate on investing in large projects, and continue to build more financial pillars, so that the local economy can truly develop. ”

"Hoo ......"

Deng Zhonghe breathed a long sigh of relief, looked at Liu Weihong's eyes, and changed again. Although Deng Zhonghe hid it well, Liu Weihong read shock, even admiration, in his eyes.
