As the meeting continued, Lu Ming looked around at everyone and said calmly: "After careful consideration, I have decided to completely withdraw from the Science and People's Livelihood Foundation and package it as a whole and hand it over to the state."
When Lou Yiyun and others heard his decision, their expressions were dull and stunned.
It was so sudden. Everyone present was completely unprepared for this and were simply at a loss.
After Lou Yiyun came to his senses, he said with an abrupt look on his face: "Send it... to the country? Chairman, this, this... this is too sudden, we are not mentally prepared."
Lu Ming said calmly: "Let's hold this meeting today so that everyone can be prepared. Don't be abrupt when the time comes to go through the process."
The foundation was founded by Lu Ming. He had to make this decision, and no one could actually object to it.
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
At this time, one of the directors present at the meeting couldn't help but said: "Chairman, I really don't understand your decision."
Everyone looked at Lu Ming again. This was what everyone wanted to ask. Since the establishment of the foundation, all the work has been done very well and progress is in full swing.
Lu Ming looked around the crowd and said: "Because the foundation is too large, it has actually taken away an extremely important power from the country, so it must be returned to the country."
Everyone looked puzzled.
Lu Ming said methodically: "Although the Science and People's Livelihood Fund is a public welfare institution, it is actually allocated three times. It is huge and has a wide impact. The larger the scale and the wider the influence, the greater the power. This year our budget
It is more than 200 billion, and the foundation has the right to allocate this huge budget, and the right to allocate is a very important national right."
"The council can decide where this huge amount of money should be allocated. This is not a simple economic issue, nor a simple public welfare issue. It is an issue of political rights. Only political rights can decide which group of people to distribute to. So in fact this is
What is it? Behind the three allocations is Z rule."
At this point, Lu Ming looked at this kind of person and suddenly asked: "Do you know why Tiansheng Capital never provides donations to the foundation in the name of the company? Do you know why the foundation does not accept donations from other companies? Except Anshi Group
Except for the special reason for Lao Qiao's, I have never received any more money. Why?"
No one said a word.
Lu Ming also elaborated in an orderly manner: "The basic definition of distribution is that the primary distribution is your labor income and the income from various factors; the secondary distribution is tax adjustment, and the state achieves secondary distribution adjustment through various taxes; as for the third distribution
According to the West, it is a donation. Your legal and voluntary donation is used for redistribution. Companies will bring tax deductions and exemptions through charitable donations, right?"
"Why doesn't Tiansheng Capital do this? Maybe many colleagues in the foundation don't understand, so I'll make it clear today. Just because companies can get tax deductions and exemptions for making charitable donations, it is equivalent to the secondary distribution that you should give to the country.
If the money is no longer given, but instead goes to so-called charitable institutions, it is actually equivalent to private individuals making three distributions, which is equivalent to taking the country's distribution rights into private hands."
"What is this called? This is called the loss of state rights. Where does it go? Charitable public welfare institutions and other institutions. If you privately control the institution, of course your rights will flow into your private hands. The Science and People's Livelihood Fund has such a large annual budget.
, what a power this is, do you feel it’s hot to touch? Hmm?”
Lu Ming turned to look at Lou Yiyun and said: "Old Lou, if you go to the local area for investigation, the county leaders and even the leaders of prefecture-level cities in some underdeveloped areas will have to receive you well. Why? Isn't it because you have tens of thousands of dollars in your hand?
If you are dissatisfied with the power to allocate hundreds of millions of funds, the county and city may lose hundreds of millions of inflow funding. This is power. Then 200 billion, or even 500 billion or more, this
How much power does it have? Have you ever thought about this issue?"
Everyone looked at each other, but didn't say a word, they were all thinking about it. If you think about it carefully, it's really hot.
Lu Ming continued: "So it's not enough to talk about distribution without talking about distribution rights. The three distribution rights hidden behind it are the real essence of the problem. If you understand this thing, many things will naturally become clear. We have to figure it out
The three distributions are definitely not the ones in the Western world, so the distribution rights must be led by the state. This power belongs to the state. Even if you get it unintentionally, you have to return it in full. It is not what you should have.
If you don't return it, something will happen."
All the participants present were still silent. To put it bluntly, they did not want the foundation to be handed over to the state, because the remuneration was generous and very decent, especially the latter, which was unavailable in many places. Just imagine.
When I went to inspect a place, the local top leaders accompanied me all the way. The feeling and respectability were wonderful.
Being able to receive such treatment is not all because of holding hundreds of billions of wealth distribution rights in your hands...
Once it is handed over to the state, it means that the distribution rights are returned to the state, and a large number of public servants will inevitably be parachuted in to take over the foundation. This means large-scale personnel changes, because none of the people present are public officials, so they are naturally unwilling.
But the problem is that there is no way to stop Lu Ming's decision, and what he said is very reasonable and necessary. What should we do? What else can we do except silence?
Obviously, Lu Ming also knew what everyone was thinking, and smiled and said: "As I said before, this decision is to be packaged and handed over to the country as a whole. You should also take it in. I will talk to the relevant leaders, otherwise
The follow-up work cannot be carried out smoothly, but your current positions will more or less have to be moved a little."
At this moment, a member of the board of directors who attended the meeting finally spoke up. He asked: "Chairman, I have no objection to handing over the foundation to the state, but what if the established development policy is significantly adjusted or even completely reversed?"
?Should the results of the foundation’s development be protected?”
When Lu Ming heard this, he immediately laughed and said: "Look, you are still insisting on the three-time distribution rights. Do you want to keep it? Can you keep it? Will it be overturned? You shouldn't ask me these questions. They are what you have to consider in the future.
It is also a real test of your wisdom and ability."
Everyone remained taciturn, and Lu Ming continued with a smile: "After the foundation is nationalized, you will be eating from the public. I will not pay you wages. I will also step down as chairman, and I will not
If you hold any position in the foundation, you will not hold it even if you are not holding the position."
The matter was settled like this. Lu Ming was not here to discuss with everyone in this meeting. He was just giving them a notice so that they could digest it in advance and be mentally prepared so that they could better carry out the follow-up work.
When Lu Ming made this decision, no one present expressed any clear objection because they knew that it would be useless to object.
Finally, Lu Ming, who was sitting in the chief position, said again: "There is another thing. Tiansheng Capital will pay dividends at the end of the year. This will add another sum of money to my pocket. I plan to use 85% of this dividend fund, which is 1,400.
Donate 100 million to the foundation, Lao Lou, please do the accounting work."
Lou Yiyun nodded quickly and said with a smile: "Okay, Chairman."
Lu Ming looked around at everyone: "That's it, the meeting is over."
After saying that, he stood up and left the conference room first.
