Socialism, understood theoretically, is a sociological idea that advocates that the whole society should be taken as a whole, with the society owning and controlling products, capital, land, assets, etc., and its management and distribution based on the public interest.

Capitalism is based on private ownership, and whoever has more capital controls more distribution power.

Borneo has the basis of private ownership, because it is the property structure of merchant families, and only private ownership can effectively promote the development enthusiasm of all people.

In reality, however, these two social systems are now distinct, but in later generations, they have changed into hybridism. That is, an economy that combines a free market, state intervention, and a somewhat planned economy.

Capitalism also needs the government to formulate a series of economic frameworks to intervene and restrain the overall economy, and socialism also needs to develop the private economy in order to actively promote the development of society.

There is a very important definition here, that is, the role of the government and the role of the parties.

Society is a very nihilistic word, with no fixed direction. In the end, the right to distribute social resources is still distributed by the government, by political parties, and by people. So whose hands is the power, that's what matters.

This is also the root cause of the contradiction between Cai Lao and Huang Wenxin, and the root cause of the confrontation between Chen Zhongqing and his father.

Zhou Nan proposed state socialism or state capitalism, which in the simplest way of understanding it means that the government holds the power of distribution, ignores the ideological struggle, and focuses on economic development.

So around this topic, there were heated debates and disputes between the two sides.

After several hours of debate, it was not until dinner was about to be eaten that both sides were surprised to find that they had said that they had not convinced anyone, but they both unconsciously accepted Zhou Nan's plan.

That's where the real frightens are......

They looked at Zhou Nan, who was sitting at one end of the long table, with a light breeze, and only then did they really realize that although this young man was young, his level of understanding and construction of the whole society was much higher than them.

Cai Lao was in charge of organizing the welcome dinner, and said at this time: "No matter how big the differences are, we need to negotiate slowly and seek common ground while reserving differences. Anan is coming to Pontianak today, a grand dinner is indispensable, everyone has a short rest, and in an hour, we will meet in the banquet hall of the barracks. ”

At this time, everyone came over to greet Zhou Nan one by one and shook hands with each other. When Zhou Nan first came in, they were still a little suspicious of Zhou Nan's age, but at this time, no one questioned Zhou Nan's ability anymore.

Zhou Nan was the guest of honor, and he shook hands with these dozens of people one by one and chatted a few words each, which delayed a lot of time. He was about to go back and change his clothes, but was stopped by Planning. "Mr. Zhou, can I delay you for a while?"

Zhou Nan stopped and walked towards the Dutchman who had been staying in the corner of the room. "Of course, it's my pleasure."

Planning said directly: "Mr. Zhou, you are worthy of our Dutch meaning, according to our verbal agreement on your Jonas farm, all your guiding theories in the East Indies cannot exceed our bottom line. ”

"Of course I do. The right to diplomacy, the right to garrison troops, the preferential terms for Dutch companies and banks to invest, I kept this in mind. The state capitalism I am proposing now does not go beyond this bottom line. ”

"But you shouldn't use the term National Socialism......"

Zhou Nan shook his head and said, "In terms of internal affairs, hasn't the Netherlands decided not to interfere?" And, I use the word National Socialism, you should know what the purpose is. In a parliamentary state, you don't have to worry about a centralized organization. ”

Planning smiled slightly, and said, "I want to remind you of this, and I hope that you will be able to convince the idealists who are stiff-minded. ”

Zhou Nan returned to the courtyard, only to see that the large hall on the south side of the courtyard was brightly lit, and many people were going in and out there, arranging the venue for the evening.

Most of those people were women, and they were supposed to be the families of wealthy merchants.

Stolco said in a low voice: "The Chinese people still attach more importance to you, and they will definitely pay attention to your opinions." ”

There was not a single person in the courtyard who was in a meeting, and Zhou Nan thought to himself, at this time, I am afraid that they are all actively discussing in a certain room!

He threw out the concept of state capitalism today, neither catering to conservatives like Cai Lao and others, nor radicals like Huang Wenxin, and now both sides should be studying the feasibility of this policy.

In fact, as Zhou Nan guessed, in two different houses not far from the headquarters, all the people who appeared during the meeting gathered together to discuss. Not only did the number of people not less, but there were also some more.

Among the Chinese businessmen, it was originally Chen Lao's highest prestige. However, because of Chen Zhongqing's influence, the Dutch did not trust him as the speaker, and chose the more moderate Cai Lao as the speaker.

However, Cai Lao has a gentle personality and a more indifferent personality. In addition to speaking on behalf of the Chinese in front of the Dutch, at other times, it is still the more active Chen Lao to contact the Chinese from all walks of life.

In this house, after everyone sat down, because they were about to go to the banquet, Chen Lao asked directly: "What do you think of the state capitalism proposed by Anan today?" ”

Lin Wenlong, who is originally from Chaoshan, was supportive, he nodded and said: "I personally agree with this economic system, we used to be a family system, and we were always harvested as wool stubble, but now we can have our own country, and we should give the country more power." Only when the country is strong can the family be safe. ”

Xie Qianshan said with some concerns: "Why do we want to put a shackle on ourselves? Having escaped the control of the Dutch, do you now let yourself be in control? ”

The crowd was talking about it, and although there were many people who supported it, there were also many people who opposed it.

Cai Lao opened his mouth at this time and said: "We must first figure out a question, that is, is Anan's ability worthy of trust? Does he have a personal interest in this matter? I think it should be clear to everyone that he didn't! In order to support us, he also personally donated a million dollars, such a person, he put forward the proposal, why don't we seriously consider it? ”

"Lao Xie, I know that your export trade has done everything in Southeast Asia, and you are most afraid that after the establishment of a country, it will have a great impact on your business. But have you ever considered that without a strong country, who will help you get ahead in the future? The government is not necessarily a shackle on our heads, it is more likely to be our backer! ”

Chen Lao also nodded and said: "I don't need to repeat the history of blood and tears of the Chinese, we must have a strong government to integrate all forces." But we need to have enough influence in this government. There is no need to worry about the government's restraint now, because under the Dutch parliamentary system of government, we can control the government and enact policies that are more favorable to us. Don't forget, the Dutch are now supporting us, not the bunnies! ”

Several people who were more familiar with him couldn't help laughing, his son was working against him, and it had become a knot in his heart. It's just that Chen Zhongqing did a pretty good job, and the limelight even surpassed his father.

Cai Lao continued: "Only such a system can make those young people compromise with us, and the complete business system, although the Dutch are happy, does not conform to reality." Our South China country now has nothing, without our dedication, it is impossible to quickly build strength, for the sake of long-term solutions, I think with those young people, can compromise. ”

Xie Qianshan said with some resentment: "I have invested all my money in the rubber plantation in Malaysia now, but I don't have much money to donate." ”

The upright and irritable Huang Jiaqiang said sharply: "Who knew that the first batch of people to come to Pontianak would be founded?" You don't want to contribute anything to this country, why should this country protect you! If you don't move to Malaysia, you can make your own decisions there! ”

Xie Qianshan smiled a little wryly: "I didn't say I wouldn't donate, what are you doing in a hurry?" ”

Chen Lao Jiewei said: "Then let's have a small-scale vote now, and unify our thoughts first, so that we can have a good talk with those rabbit cubs." If you agree with Anan's opinion, please raise your hand ......"

In another courtyard, not far from the house, the argument was much more intense. Idealists have a distinctive characteristic, that is, they are easy to get into the wrong place of thinking, and it is much more difficult to get out of it.

Most people actually know that Zhou Nan's suggestion is reasonable and realistic, but they are just unwilling to accept this kind of compromise. Therefore, people like them will always be driven by the impetus of the revolution, but they will not consider the reality of the revolution.

If you don't hit Nanshan, you won't die, you won't shed tears when you don't see the coffin, that's what you're talking about. Lack of macro vision often ends up pushing oneself into a corner.

The short time before the meal, of course, was not enough for these people to discuss what the result was, and even a few people who agreed with Zhou Nan's views were said to be unconvinced of the revolutionary heart.

But if they were to come up with a plan that the Dutch could accept, they would not be able to come up with. They all knew that the Soviet system would not necessarily work in Borneo, because there were not many peasants at all, there were not many workers, except for merchants, who were still merchants.

With the Soviet one, business is not done, what do you eat and drink?

But compromise is a blasphemy against the revolution!

Walking out of the door of the room, Chen Zhongqing couldn't help but let out a long sigh. It's just revolution for the sake of revolution, that's wrong!

In the room, Huang Wenxin was still shouting: Except for communism, all political systems are backward. We should overthrow the Dutch and take matters into our own hands......

Chen Zhongqing couldn't help but smile bitterly, he was so stupid before, if it weren't for the long talk with Zhou Nan on the return trip, he wouldn't be able to see how difficult the reality was.

(Brothers, don't send a book review for harmony, okay?) It wouldn't have been, but it was also noticed by what you said. I've always tried to avoid writing about the country, to avoid criticizing a certain system, and now I'm only writing about some superficial views on some forms of government, which shouldn't be a big problem. Now that the situation has been clearly introduced, I will avoid writing about it in depth later. ）
