The conversation between the two men lasted for quite a long time, and although there was a lot of content, one of the centers was around how to develop Beihu and how to increase the income of the general public in the process of development.

Yang Yongqing could profoundly feel Lu Zhengdong's way of thinking: The purpose of development is to increase the income of the broad masses, increase investment in social security and medical security, including in rural areas, and solve the worries of the majority of the people.

From an economic point of view, raising incomes and solving worries is an effective means to stimulate domestic demand, but he can feel that the goal that Lu Zhengdong wants to pursue is not so simple.

In the face of the current reality of Beihu, development is the first priority, which is not only in Beihu, but also in the whole country, after all, there is no certain financial resources as support, no matter how good the idea is the moon in the water, this is also the whole country is looking for development at a time, party committees and governments at all levels are digging out their minds and even saying that they are fully committed to attracting investment and making the local economy bigger and stronger.

Some people say that in fact, these two goals are the same, and it is just a question of which comes first, but in fact this is not the same thing, and in doing so, there will often be a kind of one-sided pursuit, that is, excessive pursuit of economic development and fiscal revenue, but ignoring the ultimate goal to be achieved.

This point is determined by the current assessment mechanism, if you want to seek a further step in your career, you have to make a big fuss about development, and the goals pursued by the local party committee and government and the goals hoped by ordinary people are different, and even when they are in opposite directions, the incumbent often only considers the former. The latter will not be taken into account. Even at the expense of the interests of many ordinary people to achieve their own goals.

And often the cadres will complain about how much effort has been expended on this. How much effort has been put in, but it is not understood by the common people.

is just like what Lu Zhengdong said: Who are the relevant personnel of the party committee and government working hard for and who are busy?

Development is very important, this is the foundation, but the benefit of the people is the fundamental goal, and we cannot ignore the responsibilities and obligations of the government under the pretext that we still need development.

And the more economically underdeveloped a place is, the easier it is to ignore this fundamental purpose and expend too much energy on economic functions. The involvement is too deep and the management is too wide, turning what should have been the function of guidance and guidance into a leading function, and they even want to go into battle shirtless to fight in person, but these people actually have a half-understanding of the microeconomic operation, and the government is too broad and too detailed in its management of microeconomic activities, and it is too tired to say anything, and in the end it can only be counterproductive.

What is the management function of government?

It's macro.

What the government really needs to do is to serve and establish a system, laws and regulations, and supervision system that can compete fairly, that is, a big society, a small government.

In layman's terms. That is, the functions of the government are weakened in social activities, and the government has transitioned from "wide" to "narrow" in management. Give full play to the self-regulation ability of the market and social organizations, and when the government's power is small, the power of the society will be greater, and the government's non-interference will be solved by the "big society", and the self-management of enterprises, citizens, and social organizations will be brought into play.

This is the first time Yang Yongqing has heard Lu Zhengdong talk about this issue, and he has never touched on it before, whether in public or private.

Yang Yongqing also knows why Lu Zhengdong is like this,

"Big government, small society", whether power is the highest standard for resource distribution or money is the highest standard for distribution, the result is polarization and the concentration of resources in a few.

As the bottom voice of the pyramid can not have an impact, the result is that the interests of these people are difficult to be guaranteed, small government, big society, this is a transcendence of the duality between the government and the people, its essence is the rule of the people, and the sovereignty is returned to the society.

In fact, an omnipotent government is inefficient, wasteful, and socially oppressive. In the planned economy in the past, people's birth, old age, sickness and death were all allocated by the state, but the failure of the planned economy as a mode of resource allocation was inevitably the inability to process huge amounts of information.

The market is changeable, demand is fickle, to be keenly aware of the changes in the market and react, only one head is not enough. Only by returning the market to the market and returning the head to the main body of the market can the market operate normally.

The next thing we need is to return the society to the society, especially a lot of service work can be handed over to the society, and return the market to the people who work hard in the market, and these talents may mature in the market and become competitive people with market awareness.

However, the resistance to the implementation of a large society and a small government is also obvious, and many things are deep-rooted; for government departments that were born out of the planned economy, whether they are cadres or ordinary civil servants, they are accustomed to management from above, and they are asked to turn to service.

Moreover, the government streamlines administration and delegates power, which is often delegated to relevant industry associations and other social organizations, and such organizations are often called "two government * government", the reason why this is so is because they are inextricably linked with the administrative authorities.

To borrow a sentence to sum it up, it is "to wear the hat of the market, take the whip of the government, sit in the sedan chair of the industry, collect the tickets of enterprises, and provide part-time positions for officials".

In this way, power is only transferred between the government and quasi-government organizations, and there is no fundamental change in the administrative and monopoly attributes of power.

It is precisely because of this that Lu Zhengdong will be the first to rectify and rectify the indiscriminate collection of fees and clean up the units and departments that collect fees, and these so-called industry associations that previously had the right to collect fees have almost all been cut down.

From these, it can be seen that it is a strategy of taking small steps and running fast, clearing the periphery, so as to move towards the core step by step.

And the reason why Lu Zhengdong told him these things was because he was worried that he was in a hurry to produce results, and he was too aggressive......

Lu Zhengdong was very satisfied with Yang Yongqing's ability to deeply understand his intentions, and he hoped that Yang Yongqing would be able to come as soon as he was summoned and be able to fight. In this way, Zhou Ruoshan assists in economic aspects. In the rural area, Yang Yongqing shared the burden. He will be able to free up time and energy to think about and start the work of the province as a whole......

——————————————

Yang Yongqing's arrival was just a small stone thrown into the pool of water in Beihu Lake, which caused a little ripple slightly, and soon returned to calm, compared with the status of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, Yang Yongqing's importance is obviously much lower.

Although the main task of the plenary session is to deliberate on the work of the provincial party committee over the past year and the opinions on implementing the important line, principles, and policies of the central government, and to put forward the work objectives for the coming year.

But in fact, more people are focusing on one thing that is not mentioned in the news reports – a by-election for the National Committee.

On the side of the Bay Lake Provincial Government. If Lu Zhengdong officially takes office as governor, the executive vice governor and the newly proposed vice governor of the Standing Committee will also be in place at the same time, and these two positions are basically taken over by Zhang Xinwen and Zhou Ruoshan as rumored in the market, or will they be arranged separately by the Central Committee.

Of course, the real core is already completely clear about this, especially Zhou Shuming and Lu Zhengdong, who have understood the attitude of the Central Committee.

In this regard, Zhou Shuming breathed a sigh of relief. If the central government makes another arrangement on this issue, it will be self-evident what it means to him.

And because of that. He was very concerned about this personnel adjustment, but since the high-level had a clear attitude, and such an arrangement would also be supported by Lu Zhengdong, there would be no suspense in the plenary committee, but even so, he still greeted the members of the provincial party committee who attended the meeting in different ways.

Of course, the National Committee also has a very important matter, that is, the work report on summing up and looking forward, which is not only a summary of the work of the previous stage, but also a guideline for the work of the whole province in the coming year.

After some thought, Zhou Shuming also felt that some of the formulations might be better expressed in a different way, and he had always done such things himself, rather than the "big strokes" of labor, the Policy Research Office and the Secretariat.

Zhou Shuming was groaning, and Wang Yifeng, secretary general of the provincial party committee, knocked on the door and came in.

"There's something I have to report to the secretary."

Wang Yifeng paused:

"There are some problems with this article......"

The article talks about a lot of things in Beihu, to the effect that the province has changed so many leaders before and after, but it didn't work out, but although the focus of the whole article is not named, as long as it is the cadres of Beihu, they should be able to see it, pointing to Lu Zhengdong, a central meaning of the article is that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, Lu Zhengdong is also a small fight, young but like a woman with small feet, This alone will not change the situation of Bay Lake.

Zhou Shuming looked at it, the article is a very influential media in the country outside the province, such an article will not be published in the province, but outside the province, many times there are not so many taboos, Zhou Shuming has heard a lot and seen a lot, and it is not strange, but Wang Yifeng will not disturb him at this time for some trivial things, so he raised his head a little puzzled.

"The author of this article, Ma Yinghua, is a cadre in our province, who was previously a teacher at a university outside the province, and later transferred back to the province, and worked as a mayor in the following prefectures and cities for a period of time, and is now an inspector of the Provincial Department of Higher Education......"

Wang Yifeng told Zhou Shuming about Ma Yinghua's situation.

There are too many department-level cadres in the province, even if they are department-level cadres who are actually on duty, Zhou Shuming may not be able to have an impression of all of them, let alone an inspector who is not a real inspector.

But it's one thing to have an impression or not, it is always discordant for a cadre of this level to make such a voice at this time when the provincial plenum is about to begin, and it will make people have some unnecessary associations.

Zhou Shuming nodded slightly, he was still very satisfied with Wang Yifeng's political sensitivity, and said in a deep voice:

"Is Comrade Zhengdong clear about this matter?"

Wang Yifeng shook his head:

"I came directly when I got the news, but this publication has a large circulation in our province, and the governor of Zhengdong should also know about it, right?"

Zhou Shuming groaned for a moment and picked up the phone...... (To be continued......)
