Beiyang reactionaries

Because today's China doesn't even have the most basic security such as the "eight-hour work system", how can it be possible to consider issues such as pensions.Unexpectedly, Duan Xun raised this question first, which surprised Su Zhaozheng.

Duan Xun sighed and said: "This problem is very serious. Let me talk about government retirees first. After those people retire, they will receive pensions. And this money must be taken from the finances. But in the future, there will be more and more retirees. Moreover, as people's life expectancy increases, the number of retirees will inevitably increase sharply, and the total amount of pensions will also increase. If these pensions are all handed over to the finance, the pressure on the government's finances will increase in the future. However After all, the government controls the national resources, and there will be no problems in a short period of time. But enterprises are different."

"The number of workers in our government enterprises is astonishing, and the number of workers in some large enterprises reaches several 10. In the future, the number of workers who will retire will increase day by day, and the factories will bear all their pensions. It is not obvious that the factories are big now, but In another 20 years, some large factories will have 10 retired workers or even more. The factory will pay for these workers’ pensions and medical expenses, which will drag these factories to death. And now With the support of the government, these factories can live well. However, once we open up some industries in the future, our companies will have to participate in domestic and international competition. Their opponents will be international companies and domestic companies. private enterprises. But these enterprises have to bear the pensions of so many retired workers and the medical problems of so many workers, how can they have the ability to compete with them. I was born in a war, and when I was charging, I knew better than anyone what it means to travel lightly "If we don't help solve these problems, these factories will not be able to adapt to competition in 20 years, and some enterprises will suffer serious losses and eventually lead to bankruptcy."

"Let's talk about so many of our workers without pensions. They earn youth money. When they get old, they have no security at all, and it will become a factor of social instability. This is a big problem, and we must solve it question."

Su Zhaozheng listened attentively to Duan Xun's words.

Su Zhaozheng really didn't expect Duan Xun to think so much.Of course, Duan Xun and Su Zhaozheng didn't think the same way, or they thought from different angles.Su Zhaozheng is the chairman of the Federation of Trade Unions, and he thinks more about the interests of the workers.Think about how to fight for the interests of workers.

But Duan Xun's perspective is completely different.

Duan Xun has to consider whether the future finances can withstand it, whether those government enterprises can withstand it in the future, and whether the society can be stable.There are many problems in the great reform of state-owned enterprises in history.But the problem in this area is also very serious.

Many state-owned enterprises have to bear a heavy burden.

When private enterprises are developing rapidly, they have little protection for workers' rights and interests.With so many migrant workers flooding into cities, wage arrears are common, not to mention other worker protections.It can be said that the blood and sweat of migrant workers contributed a lot to China's great development in the 90s.But at that time, many state-owned enterprises, because they were state-owned enterprises, had to bear a lot of things.Including the pensions of those retired workers, their medical expenses must be covered.As a result, the burden on many state-owned enterprises is getting heavier and heavier, and the pace is getting heavier and heavier.If you want to compete with other companies in the market, the cost is completely different, and you can't compete with those flexible private companies.

In the end, how did many reforms of state-owned enterprises be carried out.

Get rid of the baggage.

What kind of burden was thrown away, not to mention those retired workers, but also closed many factories, schools, factories, hospitals and other worker benefits.It cannot be said that this is wrong. After all, the company is a company and should not bear too many extra things.But this kind of reform is achieved by sacrificing the rights and interests of a generation of workers.

Now China is also the main force of the state-owned economy.

These problems will inevitably be encountered in the future.Many industries currently controlled by the government will gradually be liberalized in the future, allowing private enterprises, foreign-funded enterprises, and joint ventures to enter and compete.Duan Xun should consider for them in advance to reduce their burden.Let them travel light.

Of course this is an idea, Duan Xun has other purposes.

Fundraising.

"Chairman, then your plan is..."

"Set up a social security fund."

"Social Security Fund?"

"Yes. The social security fund, that is, the social security fund, will include many things. But the most urgent thing at this stage is the pension fund, mainly the issue of pensions after retirement. All staff, including government staff, are required to , Enterprise staff, pay a certain amount every month when they work, and pay pensions after they retire according to the amount paid. In this way, the pressure on government finances and factory finances can be reduced, and the coverage can be very wide Of course, these are just some of my preliminary ideas, and I need to plan carefully. The United States already has very rich experience in this regard. As early as more than 60 years ago, some companies in the United States began to explore pension funds, and now they have covered Tens of millions of workers. Our people can go and learn from these lessons."

money.

One of Duan Xun's goals is to reduce the financial pressure on the government's finances and state-owned factories, and the other is to raise a sum of money.China has a large population, so its economy is large.Once the endowment insurance starts to be promoted, the population of the whole of China who pays endowment insurance will be very large.Even if everyone only pays one or two yuan a month, the amount will reach nearly one billion in a year.

The money does not need to be invested, as long as it buys government bonds, it will be automatically converted into government investment.Now is the age of war, so salary control is relatively strict.But as long as the war is over, China's wages will have a relatively large increase.At present, the wages of ordinary workers in big cities are around 80 yuan, and when the war is over, the wages will soon exceed [-] yuan.At that time, it is inevitable for everyone to pay a few dollars a month. Once this happens, the size of the pension fund for a year will be billions.

If some adjustments are made in the middle, the payment ratio is increased, and the pension amount is slightly lowered, then a large amount of funds can flow into government investment every year.

Of course, Duan Xun would not tell Su Zhaozheng about this kind of thing.

"Chairman, what about the group of people who have retired?"

"Those people will maintain the status quo. This is a pension fund, and we will implement a medical insurance fund in the future. That is to let everyone pay a certain amount of money every month to participate in the medical insurance plan. In this way, when there is any serious illness in the future, the medical insurance fund can Reimbursement of most of them. This is to protect everyone's worries."

"Chairman, I need to go back and think about it carefully, and discuss it with other people."

"Well, it should. These are just some general thoughts of mine. This is a matter that affects the whole country. We must be cautious and plan well. You can ask students studying in the United States to investigate and calculate the social security situation in the United States , let us learn and learn."

At present, there are many types of points for publicly funded international students.

There are many students studying abroad directly, but there are also many international students sent by various departments.

"Yes."

"One more thing. I want you to step down as the chairman of the Federation of Trade Unions and take full responsibility for the Ministry of Labor, the Federation of Trade Unions, and the social security fund as a cabinet member. The Ministry of Labor chooses a new minister, and the Federation of Trade Unions also chooses a new chairman. The social security fund also needs a leader. The social security fund involves a lot of money, and I am going to recommend Xi Demao, the president of the Commercial Bank, to be in charge of this matter. As for the Minister of Labor and the chairman of the Federation of Trade Unions, you recommend two people."

This is a program.

Since Su Zhaozheng is the person in charge, it is a rule for Su Zhaozheng to recommend someone.But regarding the issue of the social security fund, Duan Xun chose Xi Demao, who is familiar with finance, to take charge.

Because after the social security fund expands in the future, he will make various security investments.

"Minister of the Ministry of Labor of our party, president of the 'Workers' Newspaper', president of Shanghai University Deng Kang (Deng Zhongxia). He graduated from Peking University and received a doctorate in law from the University of Berlin. He is the founder and president of Shanghai University. He has deep research on workers' issues. , The articles he published in the "Worker's Daily" all hit the point. Over the years, Shanghai University has trained many talents in this field. He is very suitable to be the Minister of Labor and promote the development of my country's labor law."

"The current vice chairman of the Federation of Trade Unions is Zhao Shiyan. He graduated from Beijing Normal University and studied at the University of Paris in France. After returning to China, he has been working in the Federation of Trade Unions with outstanding abilities. It's just that he is too young. He is only 40 years old this year and has just become the vice chairman of the Federation of Trade Unions. years. I suggest letting him serve as the interim chairman of the Federation of Trade Unions. Wait a few years before making him the official chairman of the Federation of Trade Unions."

"I see, I will discuss it with others."

"Director He, a representative who claims to be a descendant of the Anuin family contacted us just now. They hope to have an interview with Director He."

The Battle of Stalingrad was in full swing. The United States and Japan were engaged in a large-scale naval battle at Pearl Harbor. Duan Xun continued to promote the construction of domestic institutions in China, while other places had their own work.It can be said that in such a chaotic world, no place can be safe.

Vientiane City.

Since the signing of the "China-Thailand Friendship Agreement", the relationship between China and Thailand has advanced by leaps and bounds.China began to import their agricultural products from Thailand on a large scale, especially those backlogs of agricultural products flowed into China, which quickly solved Thailand's domestic economic problems.Moreover, a large number of low-cost products from China poured into the Thai market, which immediately stabilized too many price problems.

Because Thais couldn't sell anything, domestic prices soared and society was in turmoil.However, after cooperating with China, these contradictions were quickly resolved.Luang Phibun Somkham started to waver in position, and once again stabilized again.

After that, Thailand sent more than 300 military officers to Kunming, China for training.The former Yunnan Lecture Hall, now the Southwest Army Officer University, specially offers training courses for this group of army officers in Thailand.

And Thailand's loan from China.

A loan of 5 million yuan is not a small amount.In addition to purchasing a large amount of arms, the remaining funds were poured into domestic investment in Thailand.Money is a good thing that can solve many social problems.Even if Thailand's domestic powers swallowed a lot of this loan, the remaining money poured into Thailand, which has a very obvious role in promoting the Thai economy.For a small country like Thailand with a population of only 2000 million, the inflow of RMB [-] million into the investment market will bring great economic development.

And after all, it is the cooperation of two countries.

After the cooperation between the two parties, the development of the important city Vientiane City is really making rapid progress.Not to mention anything else, just the tens of thousands of Chinese troops stationed here, and the daily consumption has allowed the small place of Vientiane City to have a huge development.When building barracks and trade distribution markets before, they also hired a lot of local labor.The result is to rapidly promote the development of Vientiane City.

Not to mention that this is the trade center between China and Thailand.All materials from China and Thailand will be concentrated here for trade.Moreover, China built the MixC not only to cooperate with Thailand, but also to cooperate with all the countries and tribes around it.

There are many countries around.

Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia have a combined population of tens of millions.In addition, Japan is preparing for another Myitkyina battle, and many of the logistics materials needed are purchased from Vientiane City.

As a result, Vientiane City became the wealthiest and most prosperous place in this area within a few months.Hundreds of cargo ships dock in Vientiane City every day, some of them are transporting supplies to Vientiane City, and some are taking away supplies from Vientiane City, it is very busy.

Moreover, the prosperity of Vientiane City has rapidly increased the influence of RMB in this area.Vientiane City quickly became the RMB settlement center in this area.The number of renminbi in circulation here has reached hundreds of millions of renminbi.

It has been a while since He Fengshan came to Vientiane City.

Here, he started to connect with many of the tribes here, build relationships and learn about their situations.At present, except for Thailand, which is an independent country, the rest of the place is French Indochina.After Vichy France handed it over to Japan, it became an area jointly managed by Japan and France.

But the royal family still exists here.

Including the Vietnamese royal family and the Cambodian royal family, there are people.After He Fengshan came to Vientiane, he also had brief contact with representatives of the royal family here.However, these royal families do not dare to contact China blatantly at present.After all, they still have to look at the faces of Japan and France.
