The Rise of Manjianghong

Chapter 9 Fear

"In China, things have developed to such a point: one institution leads the economic life of 660 million people, and one institution organizes the national economy of 660 million people... In order to concentrate the power of the country, a central organ has to regulate the entire economic life of 660 million people... ...”

"Planned industrial production!"

In the class of Chengjun University, Cao Shijing, standing in front of the podium, spit out a sentence with a very calm kiss. Then he looked at the students in front of him and continued to say.

"Since the founding of the empire, in the eyes of economists in Europe and the United States, the economic and social development of the Chinese empire has undoubtedly embarked on a completely different development path from that of other countries in the world. Some economists even believe that the "planned industrial production" implemented by China is "planned social production". Of course, this is a socialist speech!"

Cao Shijing's words were exchanged for a burst of laughter from the students off the stage. When they heard those four words, they felt more that it was a joke.

In China, anyone can understand that for China, although the Constitution has been established for nearly five years and the term of office of the First Parliament is about to expire, neither the Constitution nor the House of Commons can change the fact that the Chinese Empire is still a traditional Eastern Empire, where His Majesty still enjoys supreme imperial power. .

And Cao Shijing also had a smile on his face. He, who once participated in the "Going on a hunger strike to protect the constitution", knew better than anyone else. After the "Go on hunger strike to protect the constitution", the imperial power was not weakened, but further strengthened. Your Majesty has the right to appoint and remove officials at all levels across the country, and does not need to be submitted to the Houses at all levels for deliberation. In the eyes of Cao Shijing and many people, this is a step backwardness, not progress. Before the "sever to protect the constitution", Your Majesty still has the right to appoint and remove officials, but the House has the right to intercept the Chinese holy metaphor.

Before that, your majesty's appointment and removal of officials were up to the provincial level, but now it is up to the county government. In China, where the imperial power is further strengthened, socialism has been implemented, which is simply the biggest joke.

"In the first year of the empire, according to the will of His Majesty the emperor, in order to accelerate the development of China's industrial industry, especially the development of heavy industry, to realize the transformation from an agricultural country to an industrial country, in order to change the situation that China lags far behind the Western powers, China began to move towards a priority development of heavy industry under the leadership of the state, with high capital. This is a special industrialization road characterized by monopoly and the high degree of political intervention in social and economic development.

As a professor of economics at Sungkyunkwan University, whenever he mentions "planned industrial production", Cao Shijing will have admiration for His Majesty in his heart. Even as a firm republican, it does not prevent him from admiration for His Majesty in some convenience.

In fact, this is exactly the contradiction in the hearts of the Chinese Republicans and a few constitutionalists. On the one hand, they resist or resent the imperialized China, and on the other hand, in the past nine years, China's drastic changes in industry, economy, science and technology, and education have been seen and experienced with their own eyes. They are clear Chu knew that it was the "lone husband" in their eyes who promoted and created all this.

Just like the "special period industrial economic model" of "planned industrial production" that has been controversial for several years, although economic experts and scholars from various countries have dispute this, it cannot be denied that China's upheaval is largely dependent on this "special industrial economic model in the special period".

"It is well known that "planned industrial production" is classified as a "special industrial economic model in a special period" in China, and its origin is traced from the "wartime industrial committee" established during the ruling period and the subsequent "wartime raw material management office", the former Responsible for the distribution of government axe orders and the management of military production. The latter has 59 military companies, specializing in the collection and distribution of various industrial raw materials, giving priority to important raw materials and goods to large military enterprises..."

Cao Shijing, who stood on the podium, explained the origin of the "special economic model in a special period" to the students in a relatively plain tone. It originated from war, but ultimately benefited the whole country.

"Later, with the intensification of external worries, in the distribution of scarce raw materials, it is necessary to study a set of systematic priority criteria for surnames, so as to force people to think to a certain extent first, that is, to make some planning and surname arrangements for the future consumption structure, which is the special economic model of China's special period. The prototype of the style!"

The students under the podium used pens to make records in their notebooks. These students in school uniforms looked extremely serious. The reason why they were so serious was that to some extent, they were also affected by the "special economic model in the special period". Two years later, they graduated. , they will enter each enterprise according to their needs. According to the proportion of 40% of the country and 60% of the society, the school professor committee will allocate their where they are going. It is also determined to divide the "system priority" based on personal achievements and expertise according to the "system surname priority standard".

"In the second year of the Republic, with China's comprehensive economic cooperation from Germany, a large number of German economists and sociologists came to China. Their professional knowledge and the unique scientific surnames and rigorous surnames of the German nation have further improved the special economic model of China in the special period. It is also from this time that China established The systematic special economic planning agency fully included the industrial economy into the plan. In December of the Republic, with the establishment of the Imperial Industrial Council, this marked that China had built a complete planned economic system that Britain, France, the United States and other countries could not compare with it at all.

With a slight tone, Cao Shijing continued to speak.

"Perhaps, some European and American economists believe that China's economic system is an economic planning system that is still insufficient, but what they can't deny is..."

The professor's emphasis made the students quickly pick up the pen to record Cao Shijing's words.

"China is indisputably the most accurate, precise and most strictly regulated model country for industrial development and consumption!"

When spitting out this assertion, Cao Shijing's face was full of compladent. He even deliberately looked at several students and Japanese students in the North Korean governorate in the classroom. Compared with China, the two countries were more radical. The North Korean governorate relied on Yuan Shikai's order to calm the instability and establish There is a complete planning system that can integrate basic production and social consumption into the plan management, and after witnessing China's economic achievements, it fully draws on North Korea's economy and implements a more detailed "special economic model".

A model country that is the most accurate, precise and strictly regulates industrial development and consumption! Maybe it's more appropriate to use it in Japan, but North Korea, um, is the imperial governorate.

However, because of the need for public security, North Korea also implements strict consumption management. Compared with the industrial development of Japan, North Korea prefers consumption calculation and planning, and the latter is basically a management need, not a development need. That is the legacy created by Yuan Shikai when he was the governor of North Korea, but their economy The control is one-sided and rigid.

"... All industrial production must first obey the needs of national industrial development and provide the necessary prerequisites for the operation of the national unified planning institutions... To some extent, economic development is separated from the guidance of market profits and production in accordance with the requirements of the political axe. The core of this model lies in the construction. The dominant role of the political axe on the economy has been set up to make the economy subordinate to the specific political will of the country. Therefore, China's economy has ended the development characteristics of the political and economic separation of Europe and the United States, thus building an industrial economic development model under national control..."

Finally, when the bell rang in the classroom, Cao Shijing closed the textbook in his hand, and then looked at the students under the stage and said.

"Although the special economic model has achieved unprecedented success, one thing we can ignore is that if the political axe manages all enterprises, its power will inevitably exceed the power of the people and the power of the people's representative institutions. The growth of the power of the political axe is unprecedented for the Ming cooking system. There are dangers, so we must be vigilant and constantly study China's special-oriented economy, so as to stop it before its harm arises..."

Stop it?

What can I do to stop it?

Cao Shijing, who walked on the university campus with a teaching plan, looked at the students and thought in his mind that every time he mentioned the Chinese economy, he always emphasized that sentence, which was easy to say, but very difficult to do. He clearly knew that now the Congress has little influence on the political axe. Members of Congress occasionally criticize the political axe and accuse several officials that His Majesty may sell the Congress for a face and remove it, or in some things, such as Yuan Shikai's reign and the Ministry of Internal Affairs's legacy case, which have caused controversy in China. The former, His Majesty's support for Yuan Shikai is amazing, not only that he did not withdraw it. Later, he was transferred back to China and appointed as the Prime Minister, and the latter, His Majesty gave the Diet a little face, and the Minister of the Interior resigned to end the matter.

"Whether it is the political axe or the Congress, for Your Majesty, it is nothing more than two balls in his hand. Your Majesty's governance is very simple. Use the Congress to supervise the political axe and balance the Congress with the political axe, which is not fundamental. For Your Majesty, the real foundation is in the army!"

Thinking of his helpless words when he saw Hu Shi off yesterday, Cao Shijing couldn't help but be silent. Yes, your majesty's real root lies in the army. As for the political axe and the parliament, they are just their tools.

"The royalization of the army..."

He shook his head and sighed. Cao Shijing walked towards the professor's building. On the way, he occasionally looked at the students and looked at the faces full of youthful vitality. His Majesty's feelings became complicated again. Like every university in China, in the public university of Chengjun University, its atmosphere is also full of freedom. Even he, a famous "non-Chinese" in the Imperial Bureau of Investigation, also has the right to govern the school because of the principle of teaching the school. On the other hand, the Imperial Bureau of Investigation needs to stop outside the university. It can be said that the university is a refuge for many people, and even the university is excluded from it. In addition to the "system priority separation", university professors have the right to retain teaching assistants.

Because of this, a strange circle has been formed in China. Most of the most active republicanists and Mingzhuists are university professors, while the most firm royalists are college students, but this does not prevent both sides from respecting each other.

Just as he was about to enter the professor's building, Cao Shijing saw a familiar figure as Hu Shi.

"Oh, why didn't you leave?"

Did you see the wrong person? Isn't he going to study in Germany?

Entering the professor's building, he deliberately walked into Hu Shi's office to confirm. Sure enough, it was him!

"Sit's right, why didn't you go?"

Looking at Hu Shi, who was packing up the books on his desk in surprise, Cao Shijing asked in a low voice.

"Is it..."

The sudden change, in Cao Shijing's view, may mean a conspiracy. Could it be the Bureau of Investigation? Although the protection of the university is the emperor's life, on the other hand, the Bureau of Investigation has always wanted to infiltrate the school.

Raising his head, Hu Shi's face was full of smiles.

"I'm reasing another country!"

There was no unhappiness in Hu Shi's words, but he was a little happy. After the approval of the application, he knew that he would go to Germany helplessly.

"Reased to another country?"

With his eyes slightly open, Cao Shijing's face was full of disbelief. Many professors from various universities have experienced studying abroad. For example, Hu Shizhi has studied in the United States. However, according to domestic requirements, they often return to China to serve for a year after graduation before continuing their studies. It is said that this is for Mi Make up for the shortcomings in China, and let them confirm that they should choose the goal of studying.

However, for many students studying in the United States, it is often a little unsatisfactory. They are often selected from Germany or the United Kingdom, rather than the United States they are familiar with. Hu Shi in front of him has also had such confusion. He hopes to enter the Graduate School of Columbia University, and he also received an invitation letter, but he was "adjusted" Become a German.

In fact, Cao Shijing understands that this may be the means of the Bureau of Investigation. They may not be able to interfere in universities, but they can interfere in the assignment of international students. There are many authorities that need the help of the Bureau of Investigation, and in return, they will also give some help to the Bureau of Investigation, although the re-study is claimed to be "the country of study abroad is voluntary according to me. "Choise", but it is always difficult for individuals to compete with the political axe.

"Which country is it?"

"Columbia University in the United States!"

"Why?"

In the face of Cao Jing's surprise, Hu Shi just shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly.

"This morning, the Study Abroad Committee sent someone to collect my ticket and then gave me another ticket. The ship left in half a month. I also want to know what's going on."

"What's going on?"

Sitting behind the table, Chen Moran spit out such a sentence directly without raising his head.

"Ah..."

Zha Zhiqing was stunned. After receiving a call from the Study Abroad Committee, he knew that His Majesty called the Committee directly and told them to reasson Hu Shi to the United States. For example, when His Majesty, who was based on the principle of "catching the big and letting go of the small", was concerned about the assignment of an international student.

"Is it your suggestion from the Bureau of Investigation?"

Chen Moran's words are still with some coldness, and to be precise, there is no emotion to speak of.

"Your Majesty, minister..."

After taking a deep breath and calming down quickly, Zha Zhiqing explained.

"I intervened in this matter for the long-term rule of the empire!"

Long-term rule!

With a hum, Chen Moran still didn't look up. If he hadn't read the list of study abroad in the newspaper, I'm afraid he really didn't know that Hu Shi was going to Germany. He might not know about other people, but how could Hu He take the initiative to go to Germany? He should go to the United States, which must be tricky.

"Your Majesty, two years ago, after Hu Shi returned to China, he entered Chengjun University to teach. During this period, he suggested to the university professor committee to remove your majesty's statue!"

Zha Zhiqing mentioned the "old things" that brought Hu Shi into the sight of the Bureau of Investigation.

"Do I know that Chengjun University doesn't still have my portrait now?"

Looking up at the man standing in front of him, Chen Moran nodded.

"The academics of freedom, to ensure that scholars do not be punished by academic activities, the thought of freedom, the academics of reading, or even the two, what kind of university to talk about? Tell me, why do you want him to go to Germany? Do you know that the country is the first to legislate to guarantee academic freedom? It's Germany!"

Put down the pen in his hand, and Chen Moran's words are always somewhat helpless. These people always imagine many people as enemies. Don't they know that even if there are friends among the enemies, the flatterers will definitely not be friends!

"As the saying goes, the advice is unspeakable. If it's because of these few words, I will do everything I can to give people small shoes. Is this what the country wants to do to individuals?"

At this time, Chen Moran's voice became colder and colder. He founded the Investigation Bureau himself, but not to crack down on those scholars in China.

"I have never asked what to do with the Bureau of Investigation before, but this time, the Bureau of Investigation's hand is too long. I don't care what scholars and professors you set up classified files, because that's your responsibility, but your hands are too long to directly intervene in education like this. "!"

His eyes were restrained, staring at those who were already a little restless.

"Tell me if you're going to put your hand into the palace next time!"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

Cold sweat instantly flowed down from Cha Zhiqing's forehead. The investigation bureau has a very large amount of power in China. Perhaps it is the expansion of power that makes Cha Zhiqing subconsciously think about how many potential enemies and dissent there are every time he sees the university, but the emperor has something to say, no With the signature of the Minister of Justice, the Bureau of Investigation can't even take a professor away from college students.

In desperation, he chose to use other ways to shake hands in the university. The management of international students is one of the links, but he never thought that Your Majesty would notice such a "little thing!", and... "Well, don't stammer. I, the emperor, have no right to kill you. What to do in the future, think about it first and go down!"

After Zha Zhiqing left the office, Chen Moran only frowned. Now his choice is right, or... Deep in his heart, even Chen Moran himself has no answer, just like the road he has taken now. Although history has proved that all these roads are wrong, he still depends on However, I chose to take such a path.

The imperial power reading talent and planned economy are all that history has proved to fail, but all of this is like Pandora's magic box, which makes people unable to refuse their ** at all. The imperial power reading brings their own exclusive power. In front of "I am the country", You can do whatever you want to promote the development and change of this country according to your own will.

The implementation of the planned economy enables it to concentrate the country's wealth to complete large-scale industrial projects, thus making the country rapidly industrialized, like the Liaoning Iron and Steel Enterprise Association, which has invested hundreds of millions of yuan. If there is no full promotion of the state and no concentration of national wealth to build a large-scale project, it will be built in such a world. The first consortium of 10 million tons of steel enterprises in the world will take at least more than ten years or more, but in the national plan, it only took five years. Without the will of the state, is it possible for China to build 3,000 kilometers of railways every year and 30,000 kilometers of railways in nine years?

And everything China has achieved in the past nine years is based on two premises, one is the will of the country based on its own will, and the other is a planned economy that can concentrate the wealth and power of the country, but... all this has been proved wrong by history, and may even pay a price!

With a long sigh, Chen Moran leaning on the back of the chair looked extremely tired, and it was too tired to explore the country.

"At least, I also left a slit for this country!"

And the university with reading ability and freedom is the seam left by itself. Maybe some people are still in prison, but some seedlings have been planted, and one day these seedlings will grow up.

Moreover, in the next few years, the Congress and the Congress will become more and more mature. When everything is about to show its willingness to become a constitutional monarch, and the House of Lords shows a tendency to become a party, the House of Representatives will naturally become the stage for party politics. When it comes to the election, the police will be willing to take over. Driven by political parties, an absolutist state can be transformed into a constitutional state, because the rule of political parties is nearing completion.

Maybe on that day in the future, I will be more relaxed. I don't need to be like now. I may be a good country, but I work too hard. I just need to... "take the helm!"

Thinking of the relaxation of that day, a smile appeared on Chen Moran's face. At that time, he only needed to keep the general direction and not go astray. Wouldn't it be much easier... Thinking about that day, another fear came to mind for no reason, "Readers should never retire, because...", remember After Pinochet's lesson in later generations, Chen Mo then recited it for no reason. No, they would never, because it was me, I created the country, it was me... But even if he said so, the cold sweat on his back still couldn't help gushing out.
