Chapter 919 The Issue of Discourse Power "Seeking Monthly Votes"
Fan Heng gave his son Fan Dan a shot and called him to see how the operations of several key engineering projects were going.
"I'm not very clear about this matter. You still have to ask the specific person in charge for specific matters." Fan Wubing was very relaxed, and he was like a big shopkeeper who was throwing his hands away.
The bigger the project, the more resources and energy it will take up. Fan Wubing thought to himself that if he was willing to sit down and take care of any big project properly. It is estimated that he will spend his whole life in it. As the person who controls the overall situation, what he has to do is actually similar to that of the top leader. You just need to see the general trend of the world clearly and make the right decisions, but there is no need to do everything personally.
Of course, in terms of freedom, he is more leisurely. After all, he can manage most of his time by himself.
"You have a lot of leisure time, but you have to pay close attention to things and keep an eye on everything." Fan Heng didn't have anything to say highly about his son's behavior as the boss, he just emphasized to him.
In fact, Fan Heng's biggest concern has always been the large aircraft project, because the impact of this project is too great, and it is also related to the national economy and people's livelihood, and even the overall improvement of military strength, so he has to pay more attention to it.
Fan Heng has quite a few big things on his hands right now. One is the restructuring of state-owned enterprises, which is finally starting to take shape. It is estimated that he will be able to come up with a better answer next year, and the other is the problem of the two major oil companies. Today, the Standing Committee has reached a preliminary agreement, which is to stop the vicious market competition between the two major oil companies, improve technological content and international competitiveness, and re-engage scientific research forces. The other thing is naturally large aircraft. Project, this project is related to the layout of the entire aviation system in the next few decades and should not be underestimated.
Fortunately, this matter was initiated by his son Fan Wubing. Although Fan Heng felt a little uneasy, he thought that Fan Wubing had always tried his best, so there shouldn't be any arsenic leaks this time, right?
Fan Wu was sick enough to chat with his father Fan Heng for a while, and learned the general content of his speech at the Standing Committee today, and thought it would be beneficial.
"Now that all businesses are developing steadily, it's time to increase your voice." Fan Wubing said to his father Fan Heng. "We must seize the opportunity and do our part. Development at the top is different from that at the grassroots level. If you fall behind one step, you will never get ahead. Although we are not greedy to be the chicken leader now, we can't fall too far behind. At least the current position is What can we rely on to keep it? It’s just political achievements!”
"You say it lightly, but in fact these things are quite difficult to handle. The issue of the right to speak cannot be mastered and used well overnight." Fan Heng felt something in his heart and said to his son.
The so-called right to speak, in short. It’s the right to speak. That is, the power to control public opinion.
Whoever holds the right to speak determines the direction of public opinion.
Not to mention "how to talk", just "what to talk about" is already determined by the right to speak. Once you decide what to talk about, many issues cannot be discussed, let alone how to talk about it?
In contemporary social thought, the right to speak refers to the ability to influence the direction of social development. This is also in the hands of those who control the media, in the hands of those with financial power. They are generally well-educated and control the media and other economic entities. And what they want to say must be related to themselves.
As a tool of social ideology, the right to speak refers to the potential real influence of an information dissemination subject. In ancient China, there was a promise of a thousand pieces of gold, a promise of gold, a promise of gold, and no joke.
.
The leadership role of social groups manifests itself in two forms,
One is in the form of domination and the other is in the form of spiritual and moral leadership. The former form is represented by the state apparatus of the superstructure, while the latter form is represented by cultural leadership or discourse power.
All human knowledge is obtained through discourse. Nothing exists apart from discourse. The relationship between people and the world is a discourse relationship. Discourse means that a social group spreads its meaning into society according to certain conventions. . The process of establishing its social status and being recognized by other groups.
An ideology is a set of interconnected assumptions and expectations supported by a person, a group or a culture, a set of ideas about how the world works, a value system. It is different from a certain philosophical thought. An ideology naturally becomes a program of action.
The right of discourse of the media refers to the potential real influence of the media in producing communication effects on the audience. For example, during the Cold War, the East and the West also used radio waves to spread their own ideologies to compete with each other. Due to the development of satellite technology, Western ideology has been strengthened in the third world, resulting in the loss of local culture. However, television media in developed countries caters to the requirements of the middle class in consumerist metropolitan areas. The taste and taste advocated by the media Hobbies, fashions, and lifestyles are all Westernized.
The external information transmitted by the media is controlled by certain people or groups, and some personal subjective tendencies inevitably seep into the information. UNESCO pointed out in its report "Many Voices, One World" that 90,000 words are sent from New York to Asia every day through the World Communication Service, while Asia only sends 20,000 words to the world every day. This principle is similar to export trade. Since the other party occupies an overwhelming majority, what is being dumped in your market is the other party's views and values. And when this kind of tendentious values is spread to the audience, it plays a practical role in the right to speak.
"Although it is said that the economic foundation determines the superstructure, most of the time it fails." Fan Wubing said to Fan Heng, "If you look at all the important economic events since the founding of the People's Republic of China, they basically all have political discourse. Power is in control, so if you don’t have a certain say, you won’t be able to run the economy smoothly according to your own ideas. Strictly speaking, this is not a struggle for power, but a matter of benefiting the country and the people. Let the correct voice dominate. leadership!"
What Fan Wubing said is not unreasonable. Fan Heng has experienced many more incidents than Fan Wubing, so he naturally understands the logic behind this.
Take macro-control as an example. In fact, it means that the leadership with the right to speak is interfering in the economy. The worst one in history was the Great Leap Forward. The economy grew by more than 15% in the first two years, but fell by 2% in the next three years. fifteen. It fluctuated by about 40% within five years. But the Great Leap Forward was the result of the destruction of the planned economy, not the result of the planned economy.
By the late period of the Cultural Revolution, the economy was not on the verge of collapse. The economy was stagnant, and bonuses were not allowed to be paid or the flow of talents was not allowed. Relying on the Great Criticism of Class Struggle, relying on ideological and political work, and having cadres work with the workers, this set of things has come to an end, and there is no more new motivation. The autonomy of business leaders is very low and there is no motivation for technological updates. After the primitive accumulation of industrialization is completed, China will move towards a market economy. The Gang of Four stopped him and refused to let him go, which was indeed a mistake.
Later the Gang of Four was defeated. Stop the class struggle, end the Cultural Revolution, and shift the focus of work to the economy. Mr. Hua has made great contributions to this matter, but he is an honest man with left-wing ideas. He has no land allocation, dares not engage in domestic affairs, and does not want to introduce foreign investment. , wanted to use foreign exchange to buy modernization, and wanted to rely on the introduction of foreign equipment, thinking that this was not opening up to the outside world. At that time, China had billions of dollars in foreign exchange. As a result, the economy overheated and all the foreign exchange was spent in one year.
Later Mr. Chen said. If it doesn't work, come down and Comrade Xiaoping will do it.
Mr. Chen came out to make adjustments for three years, and Mr. Deng advanced reforms and divided the land. The days were immediately different.
As a result, everyone got a little richer and had a more impetuous mentality. They also said that Mr. Chen was an old man and engaged in the birdcage economy. Instead of negative balance, we need to achieve positive balance. As a result, the economy cannot be brought under control and continues to overheat. The industry has grown by 15% every year. The first consumption climax was the conversion of the military to civilians, and the second consumption climax was the purchase of production lines from foreign countries. For ten consecutive years, China's economy has been on the rise. But prices were not brought under control. In 1988, there was panic buying. As a result, anti-corruption was launched in a hurry. After the economic setback, it turned to politics. A major incident occurred the following year, which shocked everyone.
Then we relied on political power to wipe out the inflated bubble of total demand for ten years at once. Although this time was better than the Great Leap Forward, it was still unable to get rid of political factors and was considered a hard landing.
After Deng Gong's southern tour in 1992, the economic growth rate was 13% for two consecutive years, and prices only rose by 20% in 1994. The foreign exchange reserves at that time were 20 billion US dollars. Boss Zhu tidied up earlier and began to rectify, crack down on the Beihai real estate bubble, and significantly depreciate the RMB. In the next five years, exports suddenly increased, foreign capital came, and as a result, the foreign exchange reserves reached 170 billion U.S. dollars. .
At this time, the financial crisis in Asia and Zhejiang suddenly broke out, and the economies of the four Asian tigers, Japan, and Virginia were experiencing economic expansion. China’s domestic demand cannot rise. The economy is average, but exports have increased and there is a surplus. At this time, China's economy is soft landing, falling by one percentage point a year. At this time, Boss Zhu immediately issued 600 billion in national debt to be used specifically to build highways. It was the right time. Tears Book Bar (Zui Ao) has less factories, more salary, and more novels
"It is very important to take the initiative to adjust. Although there was fierce opposition during the adjustment, when the Asian financial crisis came, everyone stopped talking. Governing a country is actually the same as running a business. You have to adjust in advance. It will be too late when everyone has adjusted. It happened that China adjusted first and there was no bubble. As soon as they tightened, we expanded. When they went down, we went up. In fact, this is not bad," Fan Wubing said to Fan Heng, "But there are so many. Macroeconomic controls all have one thing in common, that is, if you want to have the ability to regulate the economy, you must have enough say. If no one is willing to listen to you, why bother? It’s best to take care of this, focus on the big ones, let go of the small ones, and spend more time thinking about building your own power, which will also benefit the country and the people.”
Fan Heng said with a smile. "In order to gain the right to speak in a co-authorship, do I have to form a clique?"
"Qie Yi," Fan Wubing curled his lips and said, "There has been a hilltop for so many years. Isn't this the first time I heard about it?"
