Chapter 229 How to Build a Modern Society

After the celebration of the 30th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the public began to appear less in the public eye.

Basically, the cross-border crowd who only met with relatives, friends and private occasions with some people who had to meet and wanted to meet also began to stay at home, in addition to leading scientific research teams to conduct experiments, organizing activities such as traveling with subordinates, students and old fellows who have worked together for decades.

It doesn't take much effort to control the running of this vast empire behind the scenes, except for reviewing the big projects of the five-year plan and revising the basic legal framework.

The apprentices and grandchildren who are specialized in their respective businesses can handle everything, especially the veto power in the hands of the people (the highest organ of power is the Standing Committee with legislative power, but the team of the Standing Committee after crossing the public is a puppet and a mouthpiece, which is basically a miscellaneous, and important decisions still depend on the resolution of the executive board of directors of the board of directors of the Chenji Group, the largest economic organization in the country that determines the lives of many senators at the economic level) has always been in the hands of the people. Anything that displeased Lee Ki and others would be satisfactory in the quickest possible time, and at least 90 of the Senate meetings to amend laws and systems were convened through the proposals of the people.

Li Ji came to work hard in this time and space, starting with his own success, it can be said that he was in the realm of heroes, and in the middle was to change the fate of the nation and becoming a colony, which is the realm of domineering kings, that is, the realm of kings, and when he led the empire to this day, he became a saint realm that promotes the progress and prosperity of the world.

Traversal, who have always put the world and the overall situation in the first place, have realized the dream of making a fortune, team building, making meritorious contributions, founding a country, spreading the power of heaven and spreading the nation, and national rejuvenation in accordance with the plan of making things easy first and then making them difficult. But now it has also encountered difficulties. Whether to seek to build a multicultural world with Han culture as the main body, or to unify the world and go straight to the space age.

The extreme unevenness of development was evident in the heart of the empire. The remote suburbs of southwestern cities are still in the settled farming life that has just entered the use of soil composting, and has not been separated from slash-and-burn farming for a few years; The rich newly industrialized towns of the Central Plains have entered the process of de-industrialization and reverse urbanization, and the textile factories and machinery factories that were set up more than a decade ago have all been relocated to satellite cities with lower land prices or even distant third-tier cities in other provinces.

Residents in several major cities already have access to drinking tap water and gas cookers, while lesser-known second-tier cities do not have access to running water and buses. Most of the inaccessible places do not even have gravel roads for horse-drawn carts and ox-carts, and the poor areas are still the villagers who sell and receive the mountain goods. Many regions have only recently learned that the empire's territory has expanded to Chizhou, and the empire has stipulated the abolition of poll tax and labor, the reduction of agricultural tax to the level of 2 yuan per mu, and the threshold of various individual taxes has been raised to 12,000 yuan per year. It is not that they are greedy, but that the money is spent on the villagers' medical care, housing and education, and there is basically no excess to refund, so the higher-level finance department has to transfer and pay special funds for tax refunds according to the tax bill.

In terms of system, although the empire has been very close to the strongman political system of modern Western countries during the period of founding the old and the new, it is far from reaching the level of modern democratic politics and multi-party politics, for the simple reason that the economic level is not yet allowed.

Political parties representing the interests of all strata have emerged, but they have not yet been well organized and internally established, and they are almost always difficult to get into the government and the Senate. The members of the Senate who have crossed the control of the masses are the new aristocrats and big capitalists whose interests are bundled, and they have the enormous prestige and appeal to concentrate vote resources, and only they have the financial and material resources to speak everywhere and solicit votes. Just like the English Tudor Dynasty (Note 1), these 30 years were the transition period from the feudal ** government of the Song Dynasty to the modern constitutional monarchy, multi-party cabinet democracy. The collective leadership of the masses is a typical representative of strongman politics and the background of the needs of industrialization.

Trying to let go of the right will lead to inefficient infighting and division, and the concentration of power will lead to the growth of the world, so the crossing of the public will inevitably fall into a cycle of letting go and pulling, and let go of it for a few years when you are tired, and concentrate on firepower for a few years when you are idle, so in different times when crossing the government, its preferred industries and fields can always get more resources and policy inclination. The country's development is also advancing in rounds of industry competitions.

Technology is no longer the main factor restricting development, and the most cutting-edge fields within the public have advanced to the level of VLSI and human genome decipherment, and the constraints on the economy are still due to the expansion of population and economies of scale being constrained by insufficient talent reserves and too low a starting point. No matter how much China has a population of 800 million or 900 million before the reform, it is only a matter of technology and construction speed to become the world's factory, and it is embarrassing for the Great Song Dynasty, which did not have the 12345 and other previous five-year plans to pave the way and prosper in the late 20th century, if the world's external market of more than one billion European and American developed countries wants to grow rapidly. Without the high-quality labor force cultivated by mathematics and the modern compulsory education system and general knowledge education environment, the factories of various basic industries have to spend a lot of energy to train the migrant workers who enter the factories to become skilled workers, and it is legally permissible to sign an employment contract like a deed of sale, but the treatment is much better than that of the long-term workers in the Song Dynasty, at least the salary is not a big problem to support a family of 4 or 5. Some families with many children receive maternity subsidies and bonuses that are sufficient to maintain a nutritious level of food and clothing.

But in less than two generations, it is still too impatient to build a modern industrialized society. Therefore, through the crowd to open the plug-in, frantically through the film, drama, newspaper, radio and other media and entertainment modes to spread all kinds of knowledge and common sense needed for industrialization. In order to popularize the knowledge of hygiene and production safety, Gao Jing has filmed more than 700 propaganda films and implanted films, which are mixed with a lot of "public goods" content popularized by laws and systems, and implanted seeds and subconscious in the hearts of the masses. Spend money to hire a large number of unemployed vagrants to serve as civilized passages in various rural and remote areas, that is, film projectionists, postmen, supply and marketing cooperatives freight forwarders, barefoot doctors, and law popularization and literacy teachers.

The open source of talents is not an overnight effort, but throttling is a work every moment.

In the areas where mineral mining and smelting are concentrated, labor insurance supplies are supplied cheaply or even at a loss, and a strict punishment system is formulated to protect precious human lives as the core of political achievements. Officials and directors of state-owned enterprises who have died or gone missing more than 10 people in mining areas will be directly dismissed, and the bosses of private enterprises will be miserable with fines and compensation, and if they die, they will have to stop production for three months, and according to the fine of 10,000 yuan per person and at least 5,000 yuan in compensation, a medium-sized coal mine with an output of 10,000 tons a year, if one person dies, he will lose half a year's profits, and more than 10 people will be killed or injured, and the mine owner will have to bear criminal responsibility and squat in prison after going bankrupt.

Driven by the concept of people-oriented governance, the crossers define modernization as the number and quality of software indicators that are completely different from the pure hardware flow of high-rise buildings.

It is important to know that it is impossible to establish socialism in a country full of illiterates, and the illiterate people who cross the definition of the public are not illiterate, but they do not understand the civilized order and the rules of the game in modern society. Literacy is only a watershed in the measure of learning ability, and has little to do with the quality of people, those who do everything they can to steal men and prostitutes, and do not abide by the rules of basic morality and law should be kicked out of society or imprisoned, and this kind of person in modern society is a stumbling block to slow down the speed of social development. This kind of person is also the most hated existence in the construction process, and not taking human life seriously is a crime that violates the bottom line, and it should be the object of killing chickens and monkeys.

From violating traffic rules and not taking your own lives seriously or other people's lives, to selling toxic milk powder and food to poison millions of children

and consumers, although they don't seem to be too cruel and reactionary, but chronic poisoning and Nazi Holocaust-style crimes against civilization and humanity are of the same nature, these are crimes against civilization and against humanity, but it is difficult for ordinary people to figure it out.

What kind of drunk driving or ** armed civil war is the same does not take human life seriously, but people's attitude or government rulers are accustomed to the thinking of the old-style feudal society, human life is not valuable, it is not about oneself, and only when a certain phenomenon becomes able to threaten one's life or rule will it strike hard, and the cost is already extremely high. It's like knowing that a cancer cell is not killed in time, and waiting until it becomes life-threatening to go for surgery, even if it is successful, it will be very badly damaged, but it is stupid to have to do this.

Will drunk driving destroy a family, but not a country? Isn't the country made up of families? Every family is like a cell, and the biggest difference between modern society and ancient society is not the difference in productivity, but the attitude towards human life. From primitive society to the Renaissance, it can be regarded as the ancient of the West, because the theocratic kingship is greater than human rights, and human life is a worthless bargaining chip and a sacrifice to the gods; After the Renaissance and before the First World War, it was the modern era, because the human rights were gradually strengthened, and there was no improvement in the past few thousand years, and the humanist shaking of theocracy was the initial stage of humanism, and the establishment of a republic against royal power started by the Enlightenment was the intermediate stage of humanism. It was not until the end of the Cold War that the world basically entered the modern society, and only then did it have an advanced stage of people-oriented people-oriented such as humanitarian social needs and universal prices.

In recent decades, human civilization has transformed into a civilized society in the true sense of the word, slowly diluting the law of the jungle towards fairness and order, and towards a world of great harmony. It is indeed ambitious to promote the Chinese civilization to complete the road that has not been completed by dozens of generations of people in the West who have not crossed the world led by the people in just a few generations, and this kind of plug-in is not generally difficult to open.
