Chapter 77: Wedding banquet (2)
However, the purchase of gold by Zhao Guodong exceeded his authority. Although Lei Xiangdong also agreed with Zhao Guodong's view that as the depreciation of the US dollar continues to accelerate, the country's huge foreign exchange reserves have actually evolved from a strong backing to pressure. The huge foreign exchange reserves can certainly play a mainstay role in storms like the Asian financial crisis, but they will also bring many negative problems, especially the preservation of this asset has made countless people sleepless at night.
Zhao Guodong's proposal to buy gold is not within his scope of rights and responsibilities. That is a problem of the central bank, and it can even be said to be a national decision-making issue. However, Lei Xiangdong agreed with Zhao Guodong's view that as the US financial market and European sovereign debt situation further deteriorates, it is estimated that risk aversion will show a growth trend for a considerable period of time, which will inevitably push up the gold price. The rapid depreciation of the US dollar is a foregone conclusion, and the risks of US debt will gradually become prominent, and gold will undoubtedly become the most stable risk aversion tool.
The instability of European and American financial markets, especially the US financial markets, has become a concern for Chinese people. As high-end politicians, it is naturally more relevant. Whether it is Zhao Guodong, Lei Xiangdong, Fu Quan, Dong Mingtang and Zhang Hongwei, they all have their own opinions on this issue, but some views are roughly the same, that is, China needs to consider adjustments in industrial and monetary policies to cope with changes in the international situation, how to ensure the start of domestic demand and maintain growth but suppress inflation. This is also a double-edged sword, and it is difficult to achieve a perfect balance.
During the meal, everyone was discussing this issue, which continued until Ouyang Jinhua's wedding banquet ended. Everyone still had a little unsatisfactory taste. I deeply felt that such a communication was very meaningful.
Dong Mingtang is now the Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Energy, in charge of the development strategies of energy central enterprises.
Dong Mingtang has a lot of experience working in energy central enterprises and growing from grassroots leaders to become one of the core decision makers who master national energy policies.
He also saw that Zhao Guodong grew from a trivial county cadre to a prince step by step, and his attitude was even more prosperous.
Everyone's success has its own necessity. Dong Mingtang has always firmly believed in this principle. Zhao Guodong's success comes from his efforts, outstanding political sense and analytical judgment. Almost every analysis and judgment, he can grasp the joints just right, then make the correct decisions, and finally succeed. This made him able to serve as a ministerial-level cadre at the age of 37. In the eyes of many people, this is a miracle.
During the conversation between the meal, Dong Mingtang once again felt Zhao Guodong's sensitive sense of smell and strong judgment ability. Although these analytical and judgments are all personal opinions, Dong Mingtang felt that this was still of great benefit to the work he was in charge. Of course, he would not agree with someone's views without choice, but at least in terms of direction can be used as a focus of research and analysis. The development strategies of so many large enterprises under his command also require a clear direction to avoid mistakes.
He wanted to find an opportunity to communicate with Zhao Guodong, but looking at Liu Ruotong with a big belly beside Zhao Guodong, he had to make another appointment with Zhao Guodong. Fortunately, Zhao Guodong would stay in Beijing for two days during the May Day holiday, and he was afraid that he would not have a chance.
Lei Xiangdong and Zhao Guodong were the two people who came to pick them up.
There are two cars, one with a full house, or a very low-key Audi A8. In these aspects, both the houses and Zhao Changchuan are very careful and never stand out from here. Either the Audi A8 or the Mercedes-Benz S600, they never get more and more concise. In their opinion, as long as safety is guaranteed, there is no need to show off anything else.
Unlike Zhao Deshan, from yachts to cars, from luxury houses to parties, it seems that he is leading fashion trends. Although he does not recognize Zhao Deshan's "view of life" from Zhao Guodong to houses, they also admit that everyone has their own freedom in lifestyle, and you cannot ask others to be the same as you.
A very refreshing and leisurely resort courtyard, weeping willows, small bridges, and flowing water, showing low-key luxury from the details. Even the knowledgeable Zhao Guodong and Lei Xiangdong were also shocked by this elegant scenic spot in the suburbs of Beijing, which is not far from the Wenyu River.
"The gap between the rich and the poor has become larger, which is a clear proof." A faint worry hung on Lei Xiangdong's mouth. "This courtyard alone covers such a large area and is probably suitable for at least 10,000 people in poor mountainous areas to live in a year, right? Let's take a look at how many luxury courtyards are like this around, everywhere. I feel my butt is hot even when I sit here."
Zhao Guodong also had a complicated expression. He looked around and thought about what he saw along the way. He sighed softly, "The continuous rise of Gini coefficient has become an unforgettable hidden worry in today's Chinese society. How to solve the problem of widening gap between the rich and the poor and establish the realization of fairness and justice is a very challenging problem for which level of party committee and government. The saying that makes some people rich first is no longer suitable for the current development situation. The government should act as the leader of the balanced redistribution mechanism to achieve reasonable distribution of redistribution. Otherwise, social contradictions will become increasingly prominent, and we will pay an unimaginable price for this."
Lei Xiangdong nodded silently, and after a while, he said: "Guodong, although some of the propositions and policies you have put forward in Anyuan are controversial, I think it is in line with the trend in the general direction. The Communists do not oppose and do not hostile to those who get rich first. As long as they are reasonable and legal, or are unreasonable but legally obtained, as the ruling party, you cannot just be afraid that your eyes will be on that part of the people. After all, they are a minority, and getting rich first means that they have gained advantages in various social resources and strengths. What the ruling party needs to consider is to make more people and larger groups richer, and do not expect to achieve a significant leap. However, there must be a path to make the lives of most groups better and have a system to ensure the realization. This is the responsibility of the government, and we have not done enough on this point."
Zhao Guodong felt a little moved. He knew that some of his policies had offended certain interest groups, such as spending a lot of effort to implement affordable housing construction, which undoubtedly poured cold water on the heating up real estate market. This not only aroused strong hostility from real estate developers, but also caused a lot of disgust and dissatisfaction in various cities and counties. Land finance has become an indispensable part of many cities and cities. This extrabudgetary income is not only the money bag of the first-level government, but also closely related to the political achievements of the main leaders of the first-level party committee and government.
Zhao Guodong strongly implemented the policy of implementing affordable housing proposed by the central government, but in fact no one cares about this policy in various provinces, and even the provincial party committee and government did not really take this matter seriously. As for the level of the city and county, it is no different from waste paper. The implementation is purely based on the mood of the main leaders in various places. If you are interested in playing gimmicks, you can do two or three hundred shows casually, treating it as a highlight to attract the public's attention. More people choose to completely ignore it, completely forgetting that this should be the first-level party committee and government fulfilling their obligations and responsibilities to serve the people.
It is precisely because Zhao Guodong has a tough attitude to promote affordable housing construction, and has ordered local governments to come up with clear plans and sign a responsibility letter with the provincial government, clearly stateing that if the planning and construction are not completed, the government's administrative head must be held accountable. According to the situation, the tough policy aroused the dissatisfaction of many cities and cities, and many of them directly responded to Ling Zhengyue. Ling Zhengyue has never expressed his opinion on this issue. On the contrary, Bai Yiming said on this issue that governments at all levels should live within their means based on the actual local finance situation and should not be a one-size-fits-all approach. The government should focus more on how to do a good job in attracting investment and developing the economy. This is undoubtedly a disguised opposition to Zhao Guodong's view.
On this issue, an exquisite and complex situation has also formed in Anyuan Province. Zhao Guodong and Bai Yiming’s views on this issue are inconsistent, and Ling Zhengyue’s ambiguous attitude has caused the provincial government to rebound greatly in promoting the construction of affordable housing. Many cities and cities have demanded appropriate adjustments in the construction of affordable housing on the grounds of financial difficulties and slowing economic growth, and put some tasks into the second year to promote.
This opinion has been echoed by many prefecture-level cities. Within the provincial party committee and government, Bai Yiming, Long Yinghua, Yuan Zhijian, Cao Ning, Tian Xiong and others all hold this view, believing that Anyuan should not be unique. It is too advanced to take the lead when other provinces and cities have not included affordable housing construction in the hard indicator range, and it will greatly suppress the healthy development of Anyuan's real estate market and drag down the development of the real estate industry and its affiliated industries.
