Volume 7 Still Waters and Deep Currents Chapter 3 A New Way Out
The others had left, and only one middle-aged man remained.
"Prime Minister, we have already had a general framework for the work responsibilities and goals of the Working Committee of the Large Enterprises, but we still feel that it is not perfect enough, and always feels that it is too broad or general, and it is a form of form, and some of it cannot grasp the key points."
Middle-aged people think carefully about their words.
Only when the preparation team temporarily puts himself in charge, he feels tremendous pressure.
I used to think it was a temporary institution, and it would even be a short-term transition, but after taking over, I felt the huge expectations from the central government.
What will the future development of so many large enterprises depend on?
Rely on the team, talents, forward-looking ideas and foresight.
The first thing the working committee of large enterprises is to focus on is people. It is necessary to select good people and use good people so that these companies that are carrying the burden can compete with foreign companies and avoid losing.
Various enterprise reforms from the 1980s to the 1990s have made great progress and rich experience. However, overall, with foreign companies, especially large multinational giants, from the perspective of modern enterprise management experience and development speed, domestic companies are still lagging behind, and the distance is still widening.
The trend of globalization is becoming clearer and clearer. If you don’t catch up, this distance will gradually evolve into a comprehensive or even a strategic gap.
"But we did not have much experience or feelings about this work before, especially in the future, the country will join WTO. Our state-owned enterprises, especially these large state-owned enterprises, need to compete with foreign multinational giants. How can we be invincible in the competition? We don't have much confidence, are very anxious, but feel a little confused."
"Oh?" The old man leaned back slightly, his eyes were bright and sharp, and he fell on the other person, "Suki, is the pressure so great?"
"Prime Minister, what I'm telling the truth is that all of us are anxious and feel that the burden is heavy on our shoulders. The negotiations between the country and Europe and the United States are accelerating. Everyone knows that China's accession to the World Trade Organization is a general trend. Once we join, our country must fulfill its original promises in many aspects. Our enterprises, especially our state-owned enterprises, have not been fully prepared in this regard. Therefore, the country will promote the reform of state-owned enterprises to cope with future changes and ensure that our state-owned enterprises do not fail in future competition."
Wei Shouxhi revealed some anxiety in her sincere tone, "The reform of state-owned enterprises is a tough battle, but the purpose of the reform is to establish a modern enterprise management system and create a group of competitive modern state-owned enterprises, so that these large state-owned enterprises can become the backbone of our socialist Chinese economic system, and allow more people to enjoy the huge dividends brought by reform. However, the top priority before us is to maintain our own vitality and combat effectiveness in the same stage as foreign giants who have flocked to the WTO once they join the WTO, and be able to withstand their challenges and close combat."
"Well, this is our purpose. The significance of promoting the reform of state-owned enterprises is. Why, I have no idea?" The old man asked with a smile. He felt the anxiety in the other party and cheered him up: "Soldiers come to block, water comes to cover the soil, and we Communists have traveled through all kinds of difficulties. Do you don't have this courage and confidence?"
"The Prime Minister is not that he has no confidence and courage, but that we are worried that the overall strategy will be affected by our own shortcomings in our work."
After all, I still lack confidence, but this is precisely a manifestation of responsibility.
Wei Shouxi is not the kind of person who takes credit for credit and blames. He hopes that every job he undertakes will be truly beneficial to the country and the organization. Such a major burden will be handed over to himself. Although he is just the deputy director of the office of a temporary preparatory group, he knows that the responsibility is heavy and strives to do his best.
The old man nodded slightly, and he could feel the pressure from the other party.
Wei Shouxi is also a carefully selected outstanding cadre. She has worked in the Ministry of Finance and the State Planning Commission for many years, and was later transferred to the Organization Department of the Central Committee. She can be said to have rich work experience and strong sense of responsibility. Because of this, the other party feels more and more how important the responsibility is on his shoulders.
This time, the Central Committee established a large enterprise working committee to serve as a solid backing for promoting the reform of large state-owned enterprises, and to strengthen the Party’s guidance and guidance on state-owned enterprise reform from the perspective of organizational and personnel, and macro-strategic decision-making.
It can be said that the central government has high hopes for the Working Committee of Large Enterprises, which is not as simple as a temporary upload and distribution organization.
Some of the central government's strategic decisions, some organizational concepts on establishing a modern enterprise system for large state-owned enterprises, and some macro plans related to the national economy and people's livelihood industries must be implemented through the large enterprise working committee.
"Suki, you must have confidence. Although our state-owned enterprises have various shortcomings, we still have some time to buffer. Secondly, we have a good location and foreign multinational giants come in and they will have a soil and water adaptation period. The current responsibility of our large enterprise working committee is to help our large state-owned enterprises adapt to the new situation as soon as possible, change their own mechanisms as soon as possible, and form combat effectiveness and competitiveness as soon as possible. The responsibilities and purposes you mentioned are to revolve around these points."
The old man's words made Wei Shousi relax a little. He continued: "Prime Minister, we have basically determined two major points now, which are also the target and responsibilities proposed by the central government. The first is to strengthen the organization and leadership of large state-owned enterprises, especially the team members, to ensure that the spirit of the central government's policies can be implemented in large state-owned enterprises from the perspective of establishing a modern enterprise system. The second is to strengthen the construction of large state-owned enterprises from the perspective of establishing a modern enterprise system, so that the large enterprise team must become a team with modern enterprise management capabilities and experience, and constantly explore new paths and new management models for the development of socialist state-owned enterprises in the new era."
"Well, this target responsibility is well determined. The first and second points complement each other. We must not only ensure the leading and guiding role of the Party, but also actively promote the team building under the modern enterprise management system. These two are not contradictory, but also form a one plus one greater than two effect." The old man nodded and smiled, believing that some of the preliminary work of the preparatory team was still effective. Although the preparation time was still short, it was able to quickly clarify the direction from the theory, which was a great progress.
"Prime Minister, we think that although these two points have been determined by the big framework, we still feel that they are not enough. They lack some plump flesh and blood, or are too blurred. We hope to find something with clear directions, and well, so that the company can also have a more specific idea."
Wei Shouxi tried hard to express what she wanted, but she always felt that some words were not fulfilling.
"Well, I understand what Suki you mean." The old man nodded, "The first two represent the central government's opinions on the work committee of large enterprises. Then the work committee of large enterprises must strictly follow the intentions of the central government to implement it. On this basis, our work committee of large enterprises must also have some of the things of the work committee of large enterprises themselves, which are relatively detailed and specific. For example, under the implementation of the leadership of the Party, what methods and measures should we take? For example, if we establish a modern enterprise system, do we just copy the Western stuff? Is it necessary to combine the characteristics of our socialist state-owned enterprises?..."
"..., for example, if these are too general and abstract, should our large enterprise working committee make a difference in more specific aspects, and come up with something from the perspective of national economic macro-strategy and industrial planning?..."
Wei Shousi heard it very seriously, and recorded the pen in his hand quickly, especially when he heard the leader mentioning what was later. Combined with the perspective of macro-strategy and industrial planning in the country's economic development, he also had a thought. The large-scale enterprise working committee must have its own things and should refine some specific things more under the central government's major policies. Of course, it does not refer to refine them to specific cases, but plans from the industrial planning in the country's economic development. This should be added.
"Chief, I think the macro strategy and industrial planning you mentioned are very good, but this may require coordination with the National Development and Planning Commission, Economic and Trade Commission, and the Ministry of Information and Industry, etc...." Wei Shouxi hesitated for a moment. This step was a bit big, but it was more proactive. Of course he was happy to see it, but this needed to be coordinated at a higher level.
"This is nothing, it's all for work. The purpose of the Central Committee to establish a large enterprise working committee is also clear, and it is taking the path of market economy. But as part of the market economy, how can the state-owned economy develop and grow? This path is worth exploring and exploring. The large enterprise working committee is to take the lead and be an explorer and leader."
The old man's attitude was very firm, which also reassuring Wei Shouxi.
"In this work, I mentioned that we cannot stick to the old rules and follow the steps, nor can we imitate them by mistake. Instead, we must take the path of absorbing advanced foreign experience and combining the characteristics of our state-owned enterprises and innovating. We must explore a path suitable for the development of our socialist state-owned enterprises, and at the same time we must take the initiative to find new directions and new ways for the positioning and development of our state-owned economy in the future overall economic pattern."
Wei Shoushi nodded silently.
"So in the preparations for the work of the large enterprise working committee, we must find and explore outstanding talents from multiple angles and levels, especially some cadres who have both work experience in government departments and outstanding achievements in enterprises, especially those who have new ideas and new ideas in enterprise reform,..."
Wei Shoushi realized that the Prime Minister was not very satisfied with the work of the preparatory group of the existing large-scale enterprise working committee, at least there was a gap in expectations. In particular, he proposed that he should have new ideas and new ideas and breakthrough thinking, which obviously had not met his requirements. He also believed that this had something to do with the personnel structure of the preparatory group. Most of them came from ministries and commissions, and they lacked some practical experience.
