A middle-aged man stood up, first introduced himself as a representative of a Fortune 500 company, and then asked: "Secretary Xu, hello, you said that each city has its own characteristics, so can you introduce the characteristics of Yunling City in terms of economy?" ”

Xu Haodong said: "Regarding the economic characteristics of Yunling City, it can be summarized in a few sentences. First, the real economy is the mainstay, accounting for more than 40 percent of the city's total output value. Second, the export economy is dominant, and the export value accounts for more than 65 percent of the real economy. Third, the private economy is the mainstay, accounting for more than 85 percent of the total output value. Fourth, the three industries are being developed at the same time, of which the agricultural output value accounts for more than 15 percent of the total output value, and this proportion is unique among the relatively developed cities. ”

The middle-aged man continued to ask: "Secretary Xu, I also studied economics, including this time, I have come to Yunling City three times to investigate. I found that compared with other cities, the government of Yunling seems to be more strict in controlling the market, or in other words, it seems that the government interferes more in the market. I would like to ask you to explain, do you agree with this statement of mine? If so, then why are you doing it? ”

Xu Haodong smiled, "Thank you, thank you for your two 'seems', because you said it so politely." Yes, compared with other cities, our Yunling Municipal Government seems to have stricter control over the market, and I must admit this account. ”

Everyone laughed.

"But, but. We do this because of an objective truth, an objective truth that all true economists in the world recognize, is that the market is not omnipotent, and the market cannot solve all problems. Here, I will give only three examples: first, the market cannot solve the problem of social equity; Second, the market cannot solve the problem of stable and excessive risk; Third, the market will not solve the problems of the low-income class. ”

"From my personal point of view, our decades of reform and opening up have established a socialist market economic system, and some aspects need to be reflected, or at least adjusted. For example, the real estate industry, which affects 70 industries and has built so many houses, but there are still many people who cannot afford to buy houses, which is the consequence of excessive marketization. For example, I personally resolutely oppose the industrialization of education. There is also the pharmaceutical industry, I think this industry must have a public welfare nature, since it has a public welfare nature, it cannot be 100% marketized. ”

The hall burst into applause.

A corporate CEO stood up, "Secretary Xu, other cities have a series of preferential policies for enterprises, projects and professional talents, but you have almost none in Yunling City, why is this?" ”

Xu Haodong said: "Thank you, this question is a good question, even if you don't ask, I will take the initiative to explain it to you." The reason is nothing else, it's just for the sake of fairness. Yunling people have such a trait, that is, they pay special attention to fairness, and the reason why we do this is precisely for fairness. Just imagine, we offer you today, so what about the day before yesterday? What about a year ago, a few years ago? Is it fair to them? Wait until one day the preferential policy is canceled, so what will happen to the latecomers? Is it fair to them? ”

"Here, I would like to give two examples. The first example, the compensation policy for demolition and relocation, since 2003, Yunling City has fully implemented marketization, compensation for land expropriation, and individuals with the right to use it receive 15 percent of the actual price of land, which has changed with the change of land price, and this 15 percent has been adhered to until now. For example, if the price of one mu of land used to be 100,000 yuan, then the individual who has the right to use it will receive 15,000 yuan in compensation, but now if the price of one mu of land is 5 million yuan, then the individual who has the right to use will receive 750,000 yuan in compensation. Moreover, regardless of any form of expropriation, the compensation standards for public welfare land, industrial land and commercial land are on par with that of commercial housing land. ”

"The second example is the story of poverty alleviation, ten years ago, we had some poor people in Yunling City, and I was also the director of the Municipal Poverty Alleviation Office. At that time, the poverty alleviation work was simple and straightforward, and the main thing was to send money and goods. However, the common people do not buy it, thinking that it is unfair to others to collect money and goods, except for a very small number of people, the majority of the poor people refuse to accept money and goods. Only poverty alleviation projects and poverty alleviation projects are accepted by them. ”

Xu Haodong looked at the CEO and said, "Two examples, the internal problem is the spirit of fairness, I hope you can understand and be satisfied." ”

The CEO thanked him and sat down.

Another middle-aged man stood up, after he introduced himself, his name is Li Shuangcheng, he is a Chinese from overseas, his father is the chairman of a Fortune 500 company, this time on behalf of his father, "Secretary Xu, hello, I have read your masterpiece and admire your attainments in economics." Can I be your friend? For those of us who are interested in investing, can you give us some specific advice? ”

Xu Haodong nodded, smiled and said, "First of all, I want to clarify two points. First, the so-called masterpiece is actually just a family's words, you can appreciate it, but it should be questioned, at most it can only be used as a reference. Economics is the most unreliable science in the world, and there are so many economists in the world, but in fact, more than 90 percent are unreliable, and the remaining 10 percent may be reliable today, but they will become unreliable tomorrow. ”

There was a burst of laughter in the hall.

"Second, this is the conference hall of the Municipal Chamber of Commerce, and it also has another name, Yunling Economic Development Forum. I proposed the establishment of this forum eight years ago, and the main purpose is to provide suggestions for the economic development of Yunling City, and I have given many speeches here. In a speech in the second half of the year before last, I said that Yunling has sufficient capital and has become a city with net capital export. Now it seems that I am short-sighted, and I did not foresee the big scene of the present and the big picture of the future. So I would like to solemnly declare that I retract that point of view because it is outdated. ”

The hall burst into applause.

"I am deeply honored and grateful that this compatriot said that he wanted to be friends with me. However, there are dozens of explanations for the concept of a friend, and I think it's important to figure out what kind of friend you want to be before you become a friend. In a sense, you've come from far and wide, and it's the Chinese New Year, and we're already friends. ”

"However, I have a strange theory, because because of my identity and my work, I regard entrepreneurs and capitalists as friends, but I also have a certain degree of hostility towards entrepreneurs and capitalists. In other words, I am willing to establish my relationship with entrepreneurs and capitalists as one of friend and foe. This compatriot, I hope I didn't scare you. ”

In the laughter, Li Shuangcheng said: "Secretary Xu, you didn't scare me, on the contrary, I agree with your theory of being both friend and foe." ”

Xu Haodong smiled: "Thank you, Mr. Li, if you want to know more about my friend and foe, I can introduce a person to meet you, his name is Lin Chufeng, the boss of Dongjiang Hongxing Electronics Company, an interesting and lovely guy." He's a good guy and a good collaborator, but he's just been cleaned up by the law lately, so I don't know if he's here today. ”

The hall burst into laughter.
