About Planned Economy
Chapter 390:About Planned Economy
"You say that the conditions for our country to engage in a planned economy are not mature, what is the reason?"
Shen Rongjun asked very seriously.For this recommended by Zhang to his own closed-door disciples, his interest is growing.The debate over the planned economy and the commodity economy is fashionable, and it is not surprising that Feng Xiaochen can say a few words.But Feng Zhichen's mouth believes that the conditions of the planned economy are immature, which can be regarded as a new point of view, so that Shen Rongru feels that they need to listen to it well.
On this issue, Feng Xiaochen was discussed with some scholars in the previous life, so he was not nervous at this time, and said calmly:
The idea of a planned economy originated with Marx.The purpose of his idea is to avoid the incongruity of the two major categories of development in the capitalist economy, and thus to completely eliminate the successive economic crises.This idea, through Lenin's practice, became a real national economic management system and was applied in the Soviet Union and our country and other socialist countries.
However, whether it is Marx's idea or Lenin's, the planned economy must be based on pure public ownership, because only in this way can the various economic agents be fully subordinated to the dispatch of the planning authorities, and not interfere with the execution of the plan because of the pursuit of self-interest.In this sense, public ownership, and pure, public ownership, is the basis of the planned economic system.”
“You mean that we now allow multiple forms of economy to co-exist and undermine that foundation?”Shen Rongru asked.
Feng Xiaochen shook his head: “I don’t mean that.I don’t think there was a purely public ownership, even before the reform and opening up.Our entire national economy is divided into different levels, occupied by tens of thousands of localities and enterprises.”
Shen Rong Confused and smiled, “This reference has a meaning, do you think that only by allowing the state to receive all its powers from the central government can it be regarded as pure public ownership?”
“Indeed it is.”Feng Xiaochen said, “Teacher Shen, I will give you an example.This time last year, I went to the province of Mingzhou to deal with a case.This case is very simple, that is, the Lecheng government secretly indulged, and even caused local farmers to obstruct the construction of the large ethylene project, in order to hold the state commission to approve them to launch a TV factory.
According to the assumption of the public ownership economy, this kind of thing should not happen at all, because Lecheng Ethylene is a national project, and the Lecheng government is a state-level government, which has the reason to dismantle its own platform?But such a thing happened, and similar things are not new in all regions and industries.
We always say that the means of production are owned by the whole people, but in fact they are not.Lecheng Ethylene is the National Economic Commission, Lecheng TV Factory is Lecheng government, which is a completely different two stakeholders, it is impossible to achieve the same interests, but can only take the exchange of interests to achieve cooperation.
In the end, the State Economic Commission had to approve the construction of the Lecheng TV factory, which is not a management model of the planned economy, but a typical market economy model, because the two sides exchange benefits to achieve transactions.”
Shen Rongru combed the situation of Feng Xiaochen in his heart and concluded: "You mean that it is not possible to say that the planned economy requires that the various economic entities are consistent in their interests, and there is no bargaining process."And our country, of course, is the same with other socialist countries, where the various places or enterprises have their own interests, and they bargain with the state in the execution of their national plans.In this way, this economic model cannot be regarded as a planned economy, but has the characteristics of a market economy.”
"That's what I mean."Feng Xiaochen said, "The market economy is the general equivalent of money as the general equivalent of transactions, and the bargaining in our system is based on investment, raw material supply, leadership positions, employee production enthusiasm, etc. as general equivalents."If you promise me, I will work hard to make your plan come true.If you do not agree with my terms, I will grind the foreign workers in various ways, so that your plan can not be completed.
With money as a general equivalent, the value is clear, and everything can be clearly marked.With jobs, production enthusiasm and other things as general equivalents, the value is vague.You have granted my terms, and I can continue to grind the foreign workers in order to put forward more conditions.In this way, the planned economy is no longer talk about, and the advantages of the market economy cannot be realized, which is the worst model.”
“That’s good!”Shen Rong Confucian has a good face.These views, Feng Zhichen, actually thought about Shen Rongru.Perhaps because of the limitations of old thinking, or because he subconsciously felt that the planned economy is an impossible option, he did not think so thoroughly about this problem.Feng Xiaochen from the beginning, determined that the planned economy was unsustainable, so the idea was more open and bold, but Shen Rongru was deeply inspired.
"Since a region is a subject of interests and an enterprise is also a subject of interests, then the responsibilities, powers and interests of each subject should be clarified, and if you want to obtain benefits, you must bear obligations."All transactions are measured in currency, in your words, called clear price.This idea is really new.”Shen Rong Confucian.
Feng Xiaochen said: "The advantage of the clear price is that a project can be bid by different subjects, who has the lowest price and the best quality, who will give it to whom to do it."Whether it is state-owned enterprises, township enterprises, or even private enterprises, it is possible to undertake national projects.In this way, the bureaucracy of state-owned enterprises must also be changed, otherwise it will lag behind township enterprises and private enterprises in the competition.For those who do not want to enterprising, in the competition failed in the competition, even state-owned enterprises, but also to allow them to go bankrupt, bankruptcy, exit the market...”
“Shut up, hold on!”Shen Rongru had to stop Feng Xiaochen, he shook his head and said with a little helplessness: "Little Feng, your mind is indeed active enough."However, the pace should be slowed down a bit, not too impatient.The question of whether state-owned enterprises can go bankrupt is more sensitive.It is not appropriate for you, as a graduate student, to get involved in this sensitive theoretical issue now.”
“Eh...” Feng Xiaochen was speechless.If it had not been for Shen Rong's Confucianism, he would have almost wanted to say that state-owned enterprises could not only be bankrupt, but also be annexed by other economic forms, which could be even a big disverse view in this era.Shen Rongru stopped him in time, not because he was afraid that the conversation between them would leak out, but reminded him not to say so on other occasions, and not to take such ideas as the direction of research.
It is not so easy to get society to accept a new idea.After all, China has been engaged in a planned economy for more than 30 years, and it is inevitable that many people will not understand it if it is completely rejected and turned to the market economy at once, and in this process of transition, it also involves a series of changes such as ownership and management rights, which cannot be completed overnight.At present, it is impossible to put forward the theory of "planned commodity economy" such as "planned commodity economy", and it is impossible to imagine how many obstacles need to be overcome in the introduction of such a theory.
"Xiaofeng, it seems that you are indeed a young man who is active in thought and has the courage to think, and Director Zhang has not mistaken you."Issues such as the goals, methods and steps of China's economic reform are worth exploring, and you still have time to study these issues in the next three years.However, there are some questions that are still in the theoretical exclusion zone, and it is OK to think for yourself, but don't speak lightly, do you understand?"And he said, thumping.
Feng Xiaochen nodded and said, "I understand, Mr. Shen, rest assured, I will pay attention."
For Shen Rongru's theoretical forbidden area, Feng Xiaochen is actually not convinced.He knows that these forbidden areas are only temporary, and with the gradual deepening of the reform, today's restricted areas may become tomorrow's road.These things, he is not inconvenient to say directly to Shen Rongju, so he agreed to say it first.
Shen Rongru did not know what Feng Xiaochen thought, and saw that he promised to be so cheerful, not as paranoid as some young people, and his heart was quite satisfied.He said: "Little Feng is good, no wonder you Zhang director has to ask me to take you."You know, you've seen more than I've done on many issues, and my teacher is more than enough."
Feng Xiaochen Khan once, quickly said: "Mrs. Shen too exalted me, I am just a junior high school graduate."
Shen Rongru just said, of course, with a few pompous elements, the purpose is only to inspire Feng Xiaochen's self-confidence, perhaps to show his humility.In the words of Feng Xiaochen, he said:
“Indeed, your education is a hard injury.You lack systematic training in economics, and some theoretical concepts are still vague, which is your flaw.After the beginning of the school, you must seriously fill the course of economics, I will make some lists for you, you can also take time to listen to the economics, philosophy, to strengthen their theoretical literacy.When the time is right, I will take you to some meetings and do research below so that theory and practice can be combined.”
"Thank you for the cultivation teacher."Feng Xiaochen.
Shen Rongru said, “I am your teacher, and these things should be done.”Yes, Xiao Feng, if you have any difficulties in life, you can also bring it to me, and I will try to help you solve it.In the next three years, we will be on the same team, and I hope we have a good time working together."
Feng Xiaochen said, “Thank you Mr. Shen, I will not live up to Mr. Shen’s high hopes.”
