Chapter 1150 Little Fox 1
Fan Wubing just said that he was not familiar with the two top political leaders! back. Pao Jiuxian invited him to attend the New Year's party in 2003.
Of course, this is not without reason, because on December 30, the Shenzhou-4 spacecraft was successfully launched. This is something worthy of celebration. On this grounds, and with the arrival of the New Year, the government will hold a Hold a relatively large-scale cocktail party to entertain friends from all walks of life.
The Shenzhou-4 spacecraft was further improved and developed on the basis of previous successful flight tests. Its configuration, functions and technical status are basically the same as those of the manned spacecraft. This is also the fourth unmanned spacecraft. It consists of a propulsion module and a return capsule. , orbital module and additional segments.
The total length of the spacecraft and the maximum diameter are reported in meters. Total mass in kilograms. A solar cell wing is installed in each of the four and four quadrants of the propulsion module and the orbital module. The total area of the two solar cell wings of the propulsion module is more than 100 square meters, and the unfolded wingspan is about 100 meters. The total area of the two solar cell wings of the orbital module is 10,000 square meters, and the unfolded wingspan is approximately 1,000 square meters. The Shenzhou-4 spacecraft is equipped with subsystems, power supply, distribution and cable networks. The structure and mechanism subsystem ensures the configuration of the spacecraft and provides a living structural space for the crew.
The Shenzhou-4 spacecraft will circle the earth according to the planned plan, perform hundreds of actions in space, such as unfolding solar panels, loosening the orbit, determining the attitude, etc., implement orbit changes, and perform two orbit maintenance operations. Except that it is not manned, the technical status of the Shenzhou-4 spacecraft is exactly the same as that of the manned spacecraft.
In this flight, the manned space application system, astronaut system, spacecraft environment control and life support subsystem fully participated in the test. Earth observation, materials science, life science experiments, space astronomy and space environment will be carried out in space. Exploration and other research projects; reserve astronauts also entered the spacecraft for practical experience before launch.
During the current flight of the spacecraft in orbit, the performance of various instruments and equipment on the ship is stable and working normally, and a large amount of valuable flight test data and scientific information have been obtained.
This was the last unmanned flight. The next launch will be the first manned flight of the Shenzhou series spacecraft.
This launch mission was also completed at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center, so some staff from Jiuquan also came to attend the reception. In addition, some of Fan Wubing's processing companies undertook part of the parts business in this spacecraft development, and carried some seeds from the northeastern crop base into space for cultivation. Therefore, after the government invited Fan Wubing, He readily agreed.
Fan Wubing met many old friends at the reception and was in a better mood. The No. 1 leader specifically called him to come over and sit down and chat together. When he got to the end of the field, he saw that it was just a small-scale gathering, with about thirty or forty people in total.
When Shenzhou 4 was mentioned, everyone looked excited. In fact, the development of space technology will be very useful in improving the overall national strength in the future.
The satellite killer currently under intense development is likely to play a key role in future military conflicts.
However, when I think of the space shuttle technology of the Americans, I feel that the gap is still a bit too big. Needless to say, the United States, Russia’s space technology is actually very powerful, but the Russians are not as wealthy as the Americans. , just can’t afford it.
But no one can deny that Russia's manufacturing industry is still very strong. An improved version of the aircraft can carry the American space shuttle into the sky. Although the country is also developing large-scale aircraft projects, it has to reach this level. Obviously there is still a long way to go.
Even so, Fan Wubing is quite satisfied with his large aircraft project.
Damn it, someone has brought up the reform of major ministries.
Fan Wubing inadvertently looked at the leaders who were doing it. The expressions on their faces were all the same, and there was no tendency at all. He couldn't help but feel a little emotional in his heart.
In foreign political systems, the most taboo thing is for someone to be ambiguous. Basically, a political leader who is on the stage has his own firm interest stance and wants to speak for the class he represents at any time. Therefore, their expressions Basically, they are very clear-cut and very stereotyped.
But when we go to China, the most taboo thing is lack of stability. What is leadership?
A leader is one who can sit there steadily even if his butt is on fire without changing his face even if the mountain collapses. This is called a leader.
Therefore, it is really difficult to find out anything from their expressions.
Academic circles have been discussing the reform of the ministerial system for some time, but the reform of the ministerial system did not start today. The most important call now is, to put it bluntly, that the State Council launches a new round of institutional reform.
Statistics show that over the past 20 years of reform and opening up, major institutions have been streamlined at least four times, and mergers of ministries and commissions have also been common. This time, the central leadership decided to take action on government agencies again because the problems of overlapping functions and bloated agencies of government departments have not yet been resolved. It is hard to recover from the accumulated problems. If similar departments are not merged and salaries are drained from the bottom, it will not only be difficult for the government to lose weight, but also because there are many political branches that are mutually exclusive.
Elbow, there is no way to improve the unfriendliness rate. Look at it from this aspect. It is necessary to implement the system of large ministries and commissions. Bread, this
Lift.
Looking at the world, due to different national conditions, although there is no unified model for the establishment of government agencies in various countries, one thing is certain: market economy countries all implement "small government, big society"
The United States currently has only 15 ministerial agencies. The United Kingdom has 18, Canada has 19, Australia has 16, France has 18, Germany has 14, Spain has 15, Japan has 12, South Korea has 18, and Singapore has 15. At present, there are 28 ministries and commissions under our State Council, and the special agencies, directly affiliated agencies, and service agencies add up to nearly 100. If such a structure is not bloated, then there is no more bloated structure.
When everyone talked about this, they all firmly believed that reform was imperative.
But when it came to how to change, they were divided and each had their own insistence.
"This matter should also be asked to friends outside the system. Mr. Fan, let's have a few words?" asked the No. 1 leader.
At this time, the new leader who had been elected as the general secretary also said that he must let Fan Wubing say something, otherwise it was a rare opportunity to catch him and he couldn't waste this opportunity.
Fan Wubing was in a dilemma. It was not good to say it or not. After all, he knew very well that the biggest difficulty in promoting the large ministry system was probably the diversion of officials. It is said that just to establish a large Ministry of Transportation, ten vice-ministerial positions must be eliminated. Then what about the positions of officials below the bureau and department level that need to be eliminated? I am afraid there are thousands of them.
Let alone asking these people to resign and go home, even if they are demoted, they may not be happy. Isn't it? At the beginning, the State Sports Commission was changed to the Sports Bureau. It was downgraded to the vice-ministerial level, but soon it was changed to the General Administration of Sports and restored to the ministerial level. What was this for? Although the specific background is not very clear, put yourself in their shoes, who would want to be a smaller official?
If Fan Heng was asked to stop being the executive vice premier and become a state councilor, I believe Fan Wubing himself would jump out to oppose it and put it into action. This is related to personal interests.
Another difficulty in promoting the large ministry system is functional integration.
Taking the large Ministry of Transportation as an example, it is said that the idea is to merge the Civil Aviation Administration, the Ministry of Transportation, and the Ministry of Railways. Of course, merging institutions is not difficult. As long as the State Council nods, the operation is easy. But you have to know. Institutional merger is one thing; functional integration is another.
In recent years, there has been a wave of mergers of domestic universities. What is the result? It is said that some universities now have as many as 20 presidents and vice presidents, and there are too many people and too many opinions. It is difficult to decide major issues.
If universities are like this, what about officials in ministries and commissions with positions and powers?
To take a step back, even if government officials are upright and can put the overall situation first, it is not easy to integrate functions. The difficulties that can be imagined are first in the system. The enterprises of the Civil Aviation Administration of China and the Ministry of Transport are now under the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, while the Ministry of Railways is both a government agency and has hundreds of billions of assets. How can they be simply assembled with different systems?
From a management perspective, the Ministry of Railways, the Ministry of Transport and the Civil Aviation Administration of China all have their own dispatching centers. Due to technical limitations, these three centers cannot be merged in the near future. If the water, air and transportation are fighting on their own and cannot coordinate dispatching, integrating functions is just empty talk.
This is the case with the Ministry of Transport, and the establishment of large energy, large agriculture, and large culture ministries will be similar. So this brings up a question. How big should a large ministry be? Is the bigger the better?
"When economics talks about moderate scale, it must be viewed from the perspective of transaction costs, and the scale of an enterprise is determined by transaction costs. This is true for enterprises and the government. There is no doubt that the State Council's promotion of the large ministry system was originally intended to improve administrative efficiency and save coordination costs. If the scale is too large, resulting in higher coordination costs, then such reforms will not be worth the cost." Fan Wubing carefully expressed his views, "Institutional reform is of course imperative, but the question is, how should the order of reform be arranged? Should the loose structure be changed first or administrative approval be changed first? In my opinion, administrative approval should be changed first. If the approval system is not broken, institutional reform will be ineffective. There are precedents. Didn't previous institutional reforms expand every time they were changed? This is the reason. Everyone says that it is the official-centered system that is at work, and behind the official-centered system is actually the administrative approval power. Imagine if the government did not have the approval power, then why would people try every means to get into government agencies? "
Fan Wubing's words were refreshing. In fact, this is a fact that many people did not dare to bring up. After all, no one dared to bring up the idea of directly attacking power.
But for Fan Wubing, bringing up this has no negative impact on him. After all, he is not targeting anyone. If he expresses support or opposition to institutional reform, it will make many people feel unhappy. After all, he is now a more influential adult.
After listening to Fan Wubing's words, several elders showed a thoughtful expression, or some surprise. They did not expect Fan Wubing to be so righteous and stern, and did not express his attitude.
Who said that the little fox is not a fox?
