[272] Three-level circulation and capital accumulation

After more than two hours of flight, the No. 301 Li-2 passenger plane was firmly at Shenyang Airport, and the prime minister took Xiaoqiang to transfer to a car here and go to Anshan, more than 90 kilometers away.

After listening to Xiaoqiang's nonsense about the diamond exchange on the plane, the prime minister began to feel quite happy, but after getting into the two Buick classic cars of the Shenyang Municipal Party Committee, his old man's brows furrowed again.

The prime minister leaned on the back of the white cloth cover of the car seat and said: "Xiaoqiang, the Beijing 212 jeep production line you purchased last time, according to estimates, will be at least half a year away from production, and when the production capacity grows to meet the needs of the whole country, it will take at least three years. Originally, the central government planned to import 500 cars from the Soviet Union and Poland, but now we have put this jihua on hold. ”

After speaking, the prime minister looked sideways at Xiaoqiang.

Xiaoqiang sat next to the prime minister and hurriedly nodded sideways and said:

"Prime Minister, this is my job not done well, next time I will definitely buy a batch of cars. The reason why I didn't buy a car before was because I was a little unsure of what brand to buy. You know, the cars of later generations are all EFI engines, and this thing is only afraid that it will be difficult to repair when you buy it, and it is easy to leak secrets. In case a foreign friend sees it and wants to buy two to go back, should we give it or not? However, as the saying goes, the reform that is forced by the problem is the reform that is really needed. When I go back this time, I will definitely solve the car problem. ”

The Prime Minister nodded in satisfaction and joked, "Every time I talk to you, I learn something new." The reform forced by the problem is the reform that is really needed, hehe, it's a bit interesting. Xiaoqiang, the prime minister is becoming more and more inseparable from you now. ”

Xiaoqiang smirked: "Prime Minister, if you have a job, even if you tell me to do it, I am willing." ”

The prime minister smiled: "Well, you just don't want to do it." Do you know, for you to marry a daughter-in-law, I went to Mr. Wu Yifang with a shy face, Mr. Wu personally went out, and finally won a big girl like a flower for you, you said, should you work harder? ”

Xiaoqiang hasn't seen Meng Sisi recently, and he has been thinking about this in his heart, so he was overjoyed when he heard it, and said with concern: "Prime Minister, Sisi's problem has been solved?" ”

The prime minister smiled: "Look at your urgency, it's been solved." She's just a child who doesn't know anything about the world, and if she explains the problem clearly, it's over, and you two will live well in the future, don't let me worry about it. ”

As he spoke, the prime minister lovingly pressed his hand on Xiaoqiang's hand.

"Well, Prime Minister, don't worry, hehe, hehe." Xiao Qiangle smirked.

Seeing that there was still more than two hours to go, the prime minister began to chat.

"Xiaoqiang, what do you think about future economic development."

Xiaoqiang said: "Prime Minister, your topic is too big, I can only talk nonsense, if you don't pay attention, don't blame me." ”

The prime minister smiled and said, "I'm going to listen to your nonsense, just say it." ”

So Xiaoqiang said happily: "We now belong to the transition period from an agricultural society to an industrial society, and economic development is basically in the first-level reproduction cycle with food, clothing and general daily necessities as the main consumption objects, to put it bluntly, it is to meet the three basic needs of clothing, food and use."

After the peasants paid the public grain, they sold the surplus grain to get income in exchange for industrial products; Factories produce and sell industrial goods, and pay taxes; Shops selling industrial goods are again taxed. Grain and tax revenues support all the operations of our country.

However, at present, because our industrial production capacity is almost zero, and the only ones we have are extremely inefficient, the purchasing power of our peasants and workers is very low in real wages, and the monthly wages can only meet some daily necessities.

Once we have completed our initial industrialization and entered the industrial society, the prices of industrial products will drop greatly, the people's incomes will increase, and everyone's wages will be able to buy sufficient clothing, food, and use.

At this time, Western countries entered the second-level reproduction cycle with housing and automobiles, and used bulk industrial products such as housing and automobiles to release the surplus purchasing power of the people in order to stimulate continued economic development.

As for housing, Prime Minister, let's not follow the Soviet Union's policy of free housing, which would have no other benefit than dragging ourselves down. We can't afford to provide such a commodity as housing for free, and a rich communist society is not something that can be built immediately in a few decades or even a hundred years, but an accumulation of hundreds of years.

If we insist on filling the head, zuihou can only cause unfair egalitarianism, scientists and ordinary salesmen live in the same 10 square meters per capita house, which seems fair, but in fact it is very unfair.

Therefore, our government should gradually abolish the welfare housing after the establishment of sufficient construction companies, and we should build a large number of low-rent houses, so that low-income groups have extremely cheap houses to live in, and at the same time, we should also build a large number of commercial houses, and put houses on the market as a commodity in exchange for funds. In this way, people of all income levels can get housing that they are satisfied with. We should also encourage the consumption of motorcycles and even automobiles, so as to stimulate the development of related industries and the country to get more tax revenue.

The advantage of the second cycle is that housing and automobiles such as housing and transportation consumption, can greatly drive the development of steel, precision machinery, large-scale engineering equipment industry, the stronger the consumption capacity, the larger the industrial scale, the higher the production efficiency, the lower the cost, this is a virtuous circle.

Once we have high efficiency and low cost, then we can have export competitiveness, so we can promote the development of shipbuilding, transportation and other industries. It's another virtuous circle.

Western countries take advantage of jishu advantages, production efficiency advantages, and cost advantages to regard steel, construction, and automobiles as the three pillar industries, and obtain funds from the whole shijie, so as to achieve rapid development.

Moving on to the third level of the cycle. After the 70s, with the gradual maturity and industrial application of a large number of new jishu such as electronic technology, new materials, and CNC machining, and the abundant capital accumulation brought by the three pillar industries of large-scale industrialization, the western developed countries began to upgrade from industrialization to information-based industry, and transformed from a developed industrialized society to an information-based society.

This is a new Jishu revolution that is no less than the industrial revolution caused by the birth of the steam engine, and its characteristic is that it attaches great importance to related high-tech research to serve the development of information Jishu and related industries. A variety of new products and services are emerging one after another. The continuous rapid improvement of jishu has led to the improvement and renovation of product performance and service range almost every year, thereby stimulating consumption and attracting people's surplus income for consumption.

As a result, the economy is once again developing at a high speed in the tertiary cycle, and the country's development seems to be endless.

However, in the final analysis, all this is the development of science and technology and the reserve of talents.

Prime Minister, I think that if China wants to start from a poor and white agrarian society and catch up with the developed countries, the only way to complete industrialization is to complete industrialization at the highest speed. This means that the nearly 300 years of industrialization in the West will take us 30 years or even less to complete. In this way, when the West begins to try to enter the third level of the cycle, we can be on the same starting line as them. ”

The prime minister's resolute face became serious, and he said decisively: "Xiaoqiang, we Chinese supply and production party members have the confidence to complete the 300-year industrialization road of the West in 30 years!" But in addition to the huge effort, it also requires a clever and well-designed development route, do you have any suggestions in this regard? ”

Xiaoqiang said: "I want to think about it, after peeling off the cocoon, I feel that the development of science and technology and talent reserves, in the final analysis, is a problem, capital accumulation."

The training of college students costs money, and the research and production of scientific research projects also cost money, and we only had 117,000 college students in 1949, and we have to expand our enrollment year by year to 21.44 million students in 2011, a two-hundred-fold expansion! How much does the state have to invest? It's astronomical!

As for all kinds of investment in new equipment and infrastructure, no amount of money is enough!

The capital accumulation of the Western powers relied on hundreds of years of continuous plundering and exploitation from the colonies, and the history of Western industrial development is the whole history of the fortune of a bandit, and of course we will not learn from imperialism.

In this way, there are only two roads left for our capital accumulation, one is to carry out the industrial and agricultural scissors gap internally, and use agriculture to subsidize industrial development. The other way is to export industrial products abroad and use foreign trade to accumulate capital.

The first path is more difficult, and it is impossible to do without a closed, self-protective market.

The second path sounds good, but it's hard to achieve. Let's use the export of agricultural products to accumulate capital, how much is that thing worth? Export it with industrial products, we either can't make it, or we can't make it well, and it's hard to make a qualified one, but the cost is higher than the other party, and Zuihou still has to subsidize the industry with poor agricultural scissors and bring down the export price of industrial products. ”

Xiaoqiang swallowed his saliva and continued to talk eloquently: "There is also an advantage to export-oriented capital accumulation, while earning other people's money, it can also suppress other people's industrial development. However, of course, other countries cannot accept such a one-sided trade surplus, so we also need to import, so that the import value and the export value are roughly equal, so that it is relatively fair.

However, we import agricultural products, and the profit rate of exported industrial products is much higher than that of imported agricultural products, and the higher the technological content, the higher the profit, so of course, we earn more money than the other party. Of course, there is a prerequisite for this, and that is that everyone should open up the market to each other. And this puts forward a requirement for us, that is, the industrial products we sell in China are cheaper than those of importers, and they are of good quality, have many varieties, and have high technological content. ”
