    Wang Yongjiang and Zhang Tinglan talked about the two most important issues. At present, except for the plateau areas, everything in the country has basically calmed down, and the economies of all regions are continuing to develop. The bandit armed forces have basically been cleaned up, and social order has been stabilized.  The original functions and powers of officials at all levels and the division of administrative regions must be implemented and the responsibilities and powers must be clarified before the next step can be taken.  Wang Yongjiang has already had a clue about this: "In my opinion, administrative regions can be divided into provinces, cities, counties, townships, and villages, a total of five levels. Each province is under the direct jurisdiction of the central government, such as patrol envoy, commander-in-chief, chairman, and director.  All positions in the same category should be abolished to strengthen the central government's control. " Zhang Tinglan nodded: "This is right, but if we want to sort out the administrative agencies at all levels, we will have to recruit a large number of officials, otherwise there will be insufficient manpower. "  Wang Yongjiang said with a smile: "China has never been short of officials. What's more, in the past five years, the national literacy rate has exceeded 40%. Illiteracy has been greatly reduced. With more people reading, officials have only a limited choice.  Big. However, someone suggested to me that direct elections should be held across the country. Even if the president and provincial governors cannot be directly elected, officials at the county and city levels should be elected. If the electoral system is implemented, some officials will not need to be directly appointed.  " Before Wang Yongjiang finished speaking, Zhang Tinglan waved his hand decisively: "Mr. Minyuan, I don't want to consider the issue of elections at the city and county level for some time in the future. It may seem inconspicuous, but it is nothing.  Lihou involves the well-being of hundreds of thousands or millions of people, so we can't be hasty." Wang Yongjiang also said with a wry smile: "I understand, but there are electoral voices from all over the country, advocating learning from the West.  There are also many calls within the New Democratic Party to gradually expand the scope of elections. " "Mr. Minyuan, Confucius said that if there is a way in the world, the conquest of ritual and music comes from the emperor; if there is no way in the world, the conquest of ritual and music comes from the princes.  For big things like appointing and dismissing officials, relying on elections means that rituals and music are conquered from the bottom up, which will lead to chaos in the country! This is something our ancestors understood more than two thousand years ago. " "This seems to be the case.  Somehow, even if the Yuan Dynasty is elected, Western countries will not necessarily be in chaos. " "Mr. Minyuan, there are two prerequisites for the West to be able to play elections. The first is that they have a developed economy. The second is that they have a developed economy.  It is because they have a relatively independent and stable social structure. With money, everyone can live a similar life no matter who they choose, so there is no need to worry about it even if the government has less power.  The society can function normally, and it can also prevent the infiltration of foreign forces. However, even if we have these two points, Westerners would not dare to engage in universal suffrage. If we have a small fortune, it is simply not enough to engage in internal friction.  I have thought about what you said, so I am opposed to the direct election of heads of state, even at the provincial level, but at the county and city level, it seems that I can give it some thought. " Zhang Tinglan waved her hand decisively: "  Mr. Minyuan, I think that to clarify the issue of elections, we should start with the selection of officials. "In fact, sitting in Zhang Tinglan's current position, Zhang Tinglan has been thinking about whether elections should be held. After repeated observations and  Thinking, Zhang Tinglan felt.  Conducting elections hastily will only harm the country and harm the people.  Everyone knows that if a person is sick, he must go to a doctor.  Instead of asking hundreds of people to come and vote and see what to do.  The same goes for governing a country. You must find professional talents. China is a large and complex country. If you can be qualified to be the governor of a province, you can basically become a head of state abroad. If you can be qualified to be the chief of a city or county, you can also be the prime minister of a small country.  .  Because of this complexity, Chinese officials, especially the leaders of one party, must undergo systematic training. First of all, they must be from science and engineering, or major in law. These people have careful thinking and can look at this from a systematic perspective.  Society, find the root of the problem.  This alone keeps most people out, and with elections, the people elected may have a good image, may be good at talking, and may be very approachable, but the most terrible thing is that these people generally have poor working abilities.  question.  Officials are to be used, not admired as youth idols. Selecting a bunch of performance artists will only do bad things.  "Mr. Minyuan, when it comes to national construction, it is best not to respect public opinion too much. I can guarantee that if the people are asked to vote in a referendum, they will definitely choose to reduce taxes and increase welfare at the same time." When Wang Yongjiang heard this, he was also stunned.  Yes, public opinion is often so contradictory.  For ordinary people, they will definitely look forward to shorter working hours, higher wages, and being paid without having to work.  "Speaking of which, ordinary people are indeed short-sighted. It is human nature to be indolent and indolent."The vase used, this is just a small problem, there are bigger troubles behind.  "Zhang Tinglan couldn't help but said. "Is there any trouble left?  "    "National unity.  Zhang Tinglan uttered four words softly: "Election means that the chief executives at all levels must be responsible to the local people instead of their superiors."  In order to cater to voters, they will ask more from their superiors and take less from outside.  However, China is a country with very large geographical differences and must provide support to some backward areas.  Once leaders are elected, the rich areas complain that the central government takes too much, and the poor areas also complain that the central government gives less. For some wealthy areas, they directly go independent, which may have higher economic benefits.  If this continues, won't the country be torn apart and there won't be many conflicts between localities?  " After hearing Zhang Tinglan's analysis, Wang Yongjiang was completely impressed. He couldn't help but stand up and saluted Zhang Tinglan. He said with a wry smile: "I'm sorry, I was confused for a moment. I didn't understand the problem behind this and almost ruined the country.  ah.  " "Mr. Minyuan, there is a huge difference between China and the West. That is, in Western society, there are aristocrats, the concept of hierarchy is deeply rooted, and the social structure has not changed for hundreds of years, so they have a stable upper class.  Society can control the country.  But China is different. We have been reincarnated for three hundred years, and we also have an imperial examination system. In the morning, you will be a farmer, and in the evening, you will ascend to the emperor's hall.  Chinese society is fluid, so there must be a strong government as the link between society, otherwise the country will fall apart.  ¡± ¡°My humble words are wise and wise.  Taught me another lesson!  In fact, those who advocate elections may not see it so clearly. They just want to seize power from the government under this banner.  " "Mr. Minyuan, democracy is a good thing and can solve many problems, such as corruption.  Such as social welfare, such as environmental protection.  But there are some more important things that cannot be solved, such as national independence, industrialization, and the fight for world resources.  Such as controlling vested interest groups.  These matters related to the life and death of the country are often contrary to public opinion. However, China needs to swim against the current and sprint forward. It really cannot waste its energy on internal fighting.  After all, politicians should lead public opinion rather than be led by public opinion.  ¡± ¡°I¡¯m sorry, that¡¯s the case.  Let¡¯s put this election proposal on hold completely.  " "No need to.  "Zhang Tinglan said: "I am opposed to the direct election of main officials at all levels, but parliaments at all levels still need to be elected, but the power of these members must be adjusted. Their main task is to supervise and prevent corruption of officials at all levels, and to deal with illegal and disorderly affairs.  Officials of the Discipline Inspection Commission decisively found out.  For tasks implemented by superiors.  Lower-level parliaments are not allowed to interfere. Peer-level parliaments only have the power to review some government policies. If there are obvious flaws, they can reject them.  " "This is a major surgery.  "Wang Yongjiang couldn't help but said: "The restriction of parliamentary power lies within the New Democratic Party.  There will be a lot of objections, but I think it¡¯s not advisable to act too hastily.  " Zhang Tinglan frowned slightly: "Mr. Minyuan, it's not you who suggested that I deal with the problems of the administrative system. Why are you objecting to it now?  " "Who knew you could move so big!  "Wang Yongjiang said with a smile: "I'm sorry.  To be honest, I heard that Li Yuanhong has fainted several times recently and is in very bad health. He probably won't last long.  Sorry, you have been the vice president for five years. I think it¡¯s time to take a step forward. Everything has fallen into place.  " "Mr. Minyuan, to be honest, I want to be the vice president for one more term, and then the president for two more terms. Then I will step down and achieve a smooth transition of power.  " "I'll leave you with two words: naive!  Wang Yongjiang said with a smile: "My humble opinion, in the past, you were also the founding monarch. Which founding monarch have you seen who could hand over power early?"  " "It's not about handing over power. In fact, whether it is an honorary president or a general marshal, the rules must be set. The head of state must have a term of office.  ¡± ¡°I¡¯m sorry, I think you should stop procrastinating. After all the calculations, there is no one suitable to be president. The one who can do it should work harder.¡±  " Having said this, Zhang Tinglan also nodded: "Give me some time to weigh it. Anyway, let's take a look at Li Yuanhong's situation.  " Zhang Tinglan and Wang Yongjiang finalized the issue of administrative system adjustment. After the choice was eliminated, they determined a plan to expand the recruitment of civil servants, focusing on recruiting a group of highly educated young people who are willing to work. " I would like to say that throughout the First Five-Year Plan period, each  The construction is relatively good, but there is only one problem that is not satisfactory.  "Wang Yongjiang frowned and said: "When we invest in economic construction, most of it comes from the government, and social investment is not active.  " "Don't you have any money?  "    "No.  "Wang Yongjiang shook his head: "Although China is poor, in such a big country, rich people stillYes, it's just that these people have invested their capital in the financial market, especially in Shanghai and other places, where speculation is rife.  " "Seeking death!  "Zhang Tinglan said unceremoniously: "This group of people simply don't care about life and death. Can't they see clearly that everything is too much and the danger is right in front of them.  " "Oh, how do you say this?  " "In my opinion, the problem also occurs internationally. Europe, the United States and other countries have brought about a period of prosperity due to war consumption. It has been ten years. The so-called water in life overflows, and the moon prospers and loses.  The prosperity of the West cannot last much longer. When the bubble bursts and global financial turmoil occurs, the stock market will inevitably plummet. I am afraid it will be even more terrifying than the rubber stock market crash of that year, and I don¡¯t know how many people jumped into the Huangpu River.  " "Is it that serious?  "Wang Yongjiang asked with a slight hesitation. "It's even more serious than this. I just got news from Fred. He said with certainty that financial capital has begun to operate behind the scenes, and an unprecedented crisis is coming.  .  "Wang Yongjiang immediately cheered up: "I am sorry, this is not a trivial matter. If there is such a risk in the West, we must prepare in advance.  China does not have much capital. If turmoil occurs again, it will be in trouble.  " Zhang Tinglan nodded: "There are bubbles all over the world. What we have to do is to burst them early to prevent injuries.  And we must seize this opportunity to gain some benefits on a global scale and accelerate national construction.  ¡± In fact, there is only more than a year left before the economic crisis in 2029, and it is time to start planning. Therefore, after Zhang Tinglan and Wang Yongjiang talked, they decided to go south immediately. Speaking of Shanghai, I am afraid that everyone knows that Shili  The prosperity of foreign markets, the arrogance of gangsters, the stories of talented people and famous ladies, and the ups and downs of political figures are all gathered in this dream-like city. Like the devil, it has incomparable splendor and ugly sins. But the East is the most beautiful.  The most charming place is that Zhang Tinglan has inspected many places since he became the vice president, but he has never been to Shanghai. Moreover, there is a large-scale industrial construction in the country, and there is not much movement in Shanghai. Only a large number of goods are transported to the country through the port.  , made people realize that this country is indeed changing rapidly. ¡°Vice President, this is the list of people you want to meet. Please read it and see if there are any omissions.  "The newly appointed secretary Lu Yingluo sent a list to Zhang Tinglan. This newly appointed presidential secretary has just graduated and was chosen to be by Zhang Tinglan's side. Naturally, he is top-notch in all aspects. A pretty and dignified beauty, dressed in black  The work clothes are tight and straight, full of temptation. But what makes Lu Yingluo depressed is that the powerful vice president doesn't seem to pay much attention to her. He just frowns at the list in front of him. "The vice president.  , doesn¡¯t it suit you?  " "No, sometimes the eyes can be deceiving, and the ears can also be deceiving. I want to walk around Shanghai first to see what the greatness of Shili Foreign Market is.  " Lu Yingluo's heart suddenly couldn't help but beat a little. Listening to the vice president's wishes, she was afraid that Shanghai would be bloody this time, but these were beyond the control of her secretary. After the special train arrived in Shanghai, Zhang Tinglan said that her health  Unfortunately, he refused all meetings and secretly became an ordinary businessman. Surrounded by bodyguards and secretaries, he went straight to Gongguan Road. The so-called Gongguan Road was one of the main roads in the French Concession.  There are opium dens everywhere on both sides, and there is a smoky atmosphere. There are many girls in fancy clothes standing outside the alley. Zhang Tinglan took a look and nodded. If there is a casino, this place will be paradise!
