"Regarding the price or inflation rate, if the price rises too fast and puts pressure on most people's lives, it will of course affect the happiness index. If the inflation rate is too high, it is equivalent to currency depreciation, which is equivalent to plundering personal wealth, and of course, it will also affect the happiness index. ”

Chen Yibo said: "This is also true, the income is the highest, if prices soar, there will be no happiness at all." ”

Professor Xu said: "Social equality is openness, fairness and justice, which are the three elements to measure social equality. The integrity of the government is self-evident. The degree of welfare security is, first of all, a low-level welfare guarantee, which should cover everyone in the whole society, and then gradually develop from a low level to a high level. ”

Chen Yibo asked: "Professor Xu, if you calculate it personally, how big do you think the gap between the happiness index of Binzhou City and Yunling City is?" ”

Professor Xu said: "According to my calculations, the happiness index is composed of fifteen factors, and the standard value of each factor is one. The income, Yunling City, last year's income of more than one million, is 65,000 per capita per year, and Binzhou City is 52,000 per capita per year, if the happiness index of Yunling City is one, then Binzhou City is just 0.8. ”

Chen Yibo asked Professor Xu to wait, asked Xu Haodong to bring a pen and paper, and wrote down Professor Xu's discussion on the income gap between the two cities, "Professor Xu, please continue." ”

"Employment, employment opportunities, Yunling is better than Binzhou; The minimum wage is guaranteed, Yunling is higher than Binzhou; The registered unemployment rate is lower than that of Binzhou; The absorption capacity of foreign labor, Yunling is also higher than Binzhou, if Yunling is one, then Binzhou is at most 0.9. Housing and housing prices are only 55 percent of those in Binzhou; For self-owned housing, Yunling is 76 percent, and Binzhou is only 62 percent; Low-rent housing, Yunling reached 6 square meters per capita, and Binzhou City only had 1 square meter per capita; The rent in Yunling City is only half of that of Binzhou City; The per capita mortgage in Yunling City is only 27 percent of that of Binzhou City, and if Yunling City is one, then Binzhou City is only 0.6 percent at most. Education, of course, is that Binzhou is better than Yunling, if Binzhou is one, then Yunling is only 0.7. environment, the two sides are generally tied. Health, Binzhou is better than Yunling, one to 0.9. Health, Yunling is better than Binzhou, one to 0.9...... To sum up, the happiness index of Yunling City is 13.9, and the happiness index of Binzhou City is 10.2. ”

Chen Yibo asked, "Professor Xu, what do these 13.9 and 10.2 mean?" ”

Professor Xu said: "First, the comparison between the two cities is 13.9 and 10.2, not the happiness index in the general sense, but the gap between the two cities. Second, this is also the specific comparison method of happiness index that I advocate, which is to use a certain city as a reference and compare it with other cities, which I think is more practical. Three, the difference between 13.9 and 10.2 is 3.7, and the average difference is about 0.25 per item, which is quite a big difference. Fourth, Binzhou and Yunling have four draws and three wins, the reason why there are draws and wins is entirely because Binzhou is the provincial capital city and is a policy factor, if not, the gap between Binzhou and Yunling will be greater. ”

Chen Yibo asked again: "So, can Binzhou catch up with Yunling?" ”

"Of course you can, but it's hard. Marx said that the economic base determines the superstructure. Yunling City is all centered on economic development, belongs to the stuffy wealth, if Binzhou City can also do it, it will definitely be able to catch up. But the provincial capital city is the provincial capital city, and it needs to undertake more other tasks and functions, so in terms of economic quality and quality of life, it is difficult for Binzhou to catch up with Yunling, unless Yunling City has its own problems. ”

Chen Yibo sighed again, "...... Study, investigation, fortunately we are here to learn this time, if you are condescending and self-righteous, my face will be disgraced. ”

Professor Xu said: "Secretary Chen, let me give you three more examples to illustrate the quality of life in Yunling City. One is the quality of the citizens, this is my personal experience, this year's Spring Festival, I took two little guys out to play, and found that at every intersection, it is a car to make people, regardless of whether there is a traffic light. At that time, my granddaughter and I spent a day looking at more than 110 intersections and making records of them one by one, and there were no exceptions. ”

"The second is the quality of the citizens, I have seen two data. Citizens donate blood, the number of people who donate blood every year is as high as more than 500,000, which is equivalent to every five permanent residents, one person is obligated to donate blood once a year, per capita each time 300 CC, the permanent population of Yunling City accounts for only one-twentieth of the province, but the amount of unpaid blood donation accounts for one-fifth of the province. Accidental rescue, in the past ten years, Yunling City has fallen into the water to save people 17 times, traffic accidents to save people 29 times, road accidents to save people 22 times, there has never been a dispute such as slander, I have seen a lot of videos, a person fainted on the road, there will be countless people without hesitation to participate in the rescue, which is rarely seen in other places. ”

"The third is the basic economy that Professor Yun just said, I call the basic economy the cell economy, I teach macroeconomics, and I used to look down on the microeconomy, but now it is not. Professor Yun is right when he says that the basic economy represents the vitality of the economy, and to invigorate the economy, we must first invigorate the basic economy. Just like people, people are made up of countless cells, and only living cells can live, especially the economy. Comparing Binzhou City with Yunling City, Binzhou City's GDP is four times that of Yunling City, and the per capita GDP of the two cities is about the same, but the actual situation is not. Yunling City's GDP does not include the basic economy, and even more than half of the industrial and commercial self-employed are not included in the statistics, if this piece is included, Yunling City's per capita GDP will definitely exceed Binzhou City. Therefore, I can say unceremoniously that although Binzhou City is the provincial capital, it is lagging behind Yunling City in an all-round way, and Binzhou City has a long way to go. ”

Chen Yibo was convinced, "Professor Xu, Professor Yun, listening to the words of the two of you, it is better to study for ten years, I did not come in vain this trip, on behalf of myself and the Binzhou Municipal Party Committee, I solemnly thank the two professors." ”

Professor Xu and Professor Yun hurriedly said a few words of modesty.

Chen Yibo looked at Xu Haodong at this time, "Haodong, don't you want to add?" ”

Xu Haodong said: "If you don't add it, I'm afraid that if I add it, it will seriously hit your enthusiasm." ”

Chen Yibo smiled, "Count you ruthless." But you have to tell me, I personally want to stay in your Yunling for three days, what do you think I should investigate tomorrow? ”

After thinking about it, Xu Haodong said: "Tomorrow, I will send a staff member to accompany you to show you the way, I suggest that you inspect the old town of our Nancheng street, which is the street I have seen tonight, and see the big from the small." The day after tomorrow, I will accompany you to the Municipal Economic Development Forum to meet those private entrepreneurs in Yunling. The day after tomorrow, it's up to you to arrange it, and I'll be on call. ”

Chen Yibo nodded and got up to say goodbye.

Xu Haodong called a taxi to escort Chen Yibo to the Bayi Hotel, and when he returned home, he found that his father-in-law and mother-in-law had not rested.

"Dad, Mom, you are talking tonight, I am also deeply educated, what, do you still want to continue to educate me?"
