Chapter 1110 Commodity Economy
In the conference hall of the Ministry of Electronics Industry, more than 240 key enterprises of the Ministry of Electronics Industry, including Ma Fuyuan, gathered together to participate in the national leading cadres meeting presided over by Zhang Ting, Minister of Electronics Industry.
"Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, China's electronics industry has grown from scratch, from small to large, and gradually developed and expanded, especially from the "65" period, the electronics industry has developed more rapidly, breaking through the original closed development model, and embarking on a new road of openness...... "At this time, Zhang Ting, the minister on the stage, first made an opening remarks at the meeting, only to listen to him continue: " Now we have been able to rely mainly on our own strength to produce original components, the production of radar, communications, navigation, television, radio and other more than 20 categories of more than 2,000 varieties, thousands of models of electronic products, the introduction of a number of advanced production technology and production equipment, to promote scientific research and development and technological transformation of enterprises and institutions, to accelerate the development of electronic science and technology......"
Zhang Ting's speech at the meeting was impassioned, and his tone was also a little proud.
Nowadays, the domestic electronics industry is indeed developing very fast, in 1985 compared with 1980, the total output value of the national electronics industry increased by nearly 1.8 times, profits and taxes increased by 1.9 times, the labor productivity of all employees increased by more than doubled, and the simultaneous growth of production and efficiency was realized, and a new situation of sustained and stable development appeared.
Hearing Zhang Ting's preface, warm applause rang out from time to time in the venue, and Ma Fuyuan, who was sitting in the front row, and other leaders of the Ministry of Electronics Industry and other departments and bureaus were also serious at this time, holding a book and a pen to record the speeches of the leaders on the stage.
As early as 1983, Ma Fuyuan, as a member of the party group of the Ministry of Electronics Industry, came to Shenzhen to investigate and study the development of the electronics industry, until July 1985, the establishment of Shenzhen Electronics Group, which has become a flagship enterprise for the development of the domestic electronics industry.
So when Ma Fuyuan came to Beijing, he also received the attention of leaders from all sides, especially some of his colleagues when he used to work in Beijing, and they also visited the party privately, for Ma Fuyuan, the Ministry of Electronics Industry is like his home.
After the morning meeting, leading cadres of the Ministry of Electronics Industry from all over the country had dinner in the canteen, and leaders of some other provinces took the initiative to sit at a table with Ma Fuyuan.
"Director Ma, Chunmei Electronics Factory is a subsidiary of your Shenzhen Electronics Group, right?"
At the dinner table, an old man sitting across from Ma Fuyuan asked him.
This old man is the director of the Shanghai office of the Ministry of Electronics Industry, and his name is Jia Gui, who has also worked with Ma Fuyuan in Beijing before.
Chunmei Electronics Factory is a subsidiary of our group. Ma Fuyuan nodded and said.
"Director Ma, our relationship has always been good before, but there are some things I must say this time. Jia Gui's face sank, and then he said: "The behavior of the Chunmei Electronics Factory is too bad? The Chunmei brand tape recorders produced by their factories are fighting a price war throughout the country? Dumping products at low prices and using all means has caused great damage to our domestic tape recorder industry, resulting in the serious unsalable products of several tape recorder manufacturers in Shanghai, including Shanghai Electronics Factory No. 1 and Electronics Factory No. 2?" It has caused some enterprises to have operational difficulties, so I would like to ask, can you restrain your subordinate enterprises and tell them to stop this behavior that seriously damages the market environment immediately!"
"Director Jia is right, our tape recorder factory enterprises here in Jiangsu have also been seriously affected, mainly because your Chunmei Electronics Factory of Shenzhen Electronics Group is fighting a price war?
Obviously, the current tape recorder price war has affected many local enterprises, not only in Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, but also in some other second- and third-tier cities, and the leaders of these local authorities cannot turn a blind eye to this? Therefore, taking the opportunity of this meeting in Beijing, they also want to find Ma Fuyuan to let his subordinate Chunmei Electronics Factory die down.
"Lao Jia, the commodity economy has its regularity, competition between enterprises has always existed, and the country is now also advocating the development of the commodity economy, allowing free commercial competition between enterprises, if this practice of Chunmei Electronics Factory is not legal, it has long been stopped by the state, so since he is legal, then we leaders should not interfere with some legitimate operations of enterprises...... Ma Fuyuan said calmly.
Ma Fuyuan is a very cautious person, he will carefully consider everything he says and does, and he will be reasonable, and he will not easily leave a handle on the other party.
Before the 80s, there was no concept of market economy, this concept was not put forward until the 90s, the so-called market economy is a socialized commodity economy, is the economy in which the market plays a fundamental role in the allocation of resources, as for the commodity economy, because he will not be affected by the circulation of key strategic materials and commodities in the country, so after the reform and opening up, the state has been fiercely debated on this.
If it was placed a few years ago, it was absolutely illegal for Chunmei Electronics Factory to fight a price war as a state-owned enterprise, because the production and flow of goods of state-owned enterprises were uniformly allocated by the state, and the enterprises themselves did not have the right to set prices independently, let alone fight a price war.
With the implementation of the dual-track domestic price system, especially after Shenzhen enterprises fully enjoy this preferential policy, some enterprises have the ability to fight price wars, and it is not illegal.
On October 20, 1984, the Third Plenary Session of the 12th Central Committee of the People's Republic of China was held in Beijing. The meeting unanimously adopted the "Decision of the Central Committee on the Reform of the Economic System", which clearly pointed out: It is an urgent need for the development of the current situation in China to further implement the policy of invigorating the economy at home and opening up to the outside world, and to accelerate the pace of reform of the entire economic system with a focus on cities.
The basic task of reform is to establish a socialist economic system with Chinese characteristics that is full of vigor and vitality and to promote the development of social productive forces.
The "Decision" holds that in reforming the planned system, it is first necessary to break through the traditional concept of antagonizing the planned economy with the commodity economy, and clearly understand that the socialist planned economy must consciously base itself on and apply the law of value, and that it is a planned commodity economy on the basis of public ownership. The full development of the commodity economy is an insurmountable stage of social and economic development and a necessary condition for realizing China's economic modernization.
It is precisely because of the introduction of this policy that Ma Fuyuan dared to concentrate the resources and strength of Shenzhen Electronics Group and let go of the national tape recorder price war, in fact, this itself also requires great courage.
