"Zhengyang, because Secretary He is the top leader, he may consider it more thoroughly." Guo Yeshan shook his head. He also saw He Zhongye's performance today. "You just said that this is because of the political climate and political atmosphere, and the briefings from senior management will become clearer and clearer. Secretary He should have enough sensitivity on this."

Sha Zhengyang was a little surprised and looked at Guo Yeshan: "Minister Guo, you must have your reasons for saying this. If that is the case, it would be best. The shouts of 'breaking the three irons' are getting louder, which means that the reform of state-owned enterprises will become increasingly stronger. In our province last year, there were also some attempts to merge enterprises. In Shenzhen, Guangdong, it is not uncommon for poorly managed state-owned enterprises to be sold to foreign investors."

"Breaking the Three Irons" is indeed a very popular term this year, especially in the past two months, the Economic Daily is making a big report on Xuzhou's "Breaking the Three Irons" pilot program, which has made it even more exciting.

"And if you have news channels, you should know that a Hong Kong-funded enterprise, Zhongce Company, has successively acquired many large state-owned enterprises, such as Taiyuan Rubber Factory, Hangzhou Rubber Factory, and West Lake Brewery. These enterprises are all state-owned enterprises, and the scale is much larger than county wineries. The reason why the governments in these local areas agreed to Zhongce Company's acquisition is that they believe that the acquisition and conversion mechanism of Hong Kong-funded enterprises can bring vitality to these enterprises."

Guo Yeshan stroked his jaw and didn't say anything for a moment.

"Foreign capitalists can acquire state-owned enterprises, why can't our collective enterprises, which are born and raised, acquire state-owned enterprises? This is not reasonable from any perspective." Sha Zhengyang further said: "The key lies in whether our county leaders can break the shackles in this idea and truly lead development with the thinking of reform and opening up."

Guo Yeshan fell into deep thought.

He is the Minister of Propaganda and is not in charge of economic work. However, as a new role who has just been promoted to a deputy department-level cadre, Guo Yeshan is obviously unwilling to just live in the role of Minister of Propaganda. So it is important to find a way to achieve some achievements as soon as possible in his field.

These views put forward by Sha Zhengyang are very innovative, especially the fact that foreign capitalists can acquire state-owned enterprises as just a measure of reform and opening up. So is township enterprises acquiring state-owned enterprises in trouble a measure of reform and opening up a market economy-oriented approach?

He thinks yes, and on this issue, he can even explain it carefully.

"Zhengyang, do you think I can explain and exert it in the theories you just mentioned?" Guo Yeshan asked tentatively.

"Of course, if you can add the dilemma that our county faces, it is a discussion of combining theory with practice, and I think the effect will be better." Sha Zhengyang also raised his eyebrows and said happily: "But Minister Guo, Secretary He..."

Guo Yeshan smiled slightly, "Zhengyang, don't underestimate Secretary He's political wisdom. I believe that if we analyze the solutions to the dilemma of state-owned enterprises in our county from the perspective of discussion, he should agree."

If the Minister of Propaganda wants to write an article in person, he must obey the overall situation, and this overall situation is to gain the recognition of the main leaders.

******************

"Guo Yeshan's approach is a safe move." Cao Qingtai nodded leaning against the sofa.

Sha Zhengyang said while making tea for himself: "Do you also think Secretary He will approve it?"

"Although He Zhongye is too conservative in some aspects, don't underestimate the political acumen of a top leader. The high-level leaders are becoming clearer. Secretary Huang's attitude at the city-wide economic work conference is also very clear. Any measures that are conducive to promoting economic development should be boldly tried. Moreover, township enterprises are also collective enterprises, and are also part of the public economy. What's wrong with mergers of state-owned enterprises?"

Cao Qingtai was leisurely in his mood, "As you said, Zhongce Company acquired Taiyuan Rubber Factory and Hangzhou Rubber Factory. Both companies are key enterprises in the national rubber industry. The West Lake Brewery is not small in scale. Moreover, Zhongce Company's acquisition is still in progress, and the scale is getting bigger and bigger. Foreign-funded bosses can acquire it. Why do we have to set limits on our own companies? This is not another mentality of "rather than foreign thieves to family slaves"?"

"There is a lot of international capital support behind Zhongce Company, including Hong Kong, American and Japanese capital. This is probably a gesture of the country's senior management. If you buy horse bones with a fortune, you think that these foreign capitals may not only bring capital, but also management technology, and will bring a dose of panacea to our increasingly difficult state-owned enterprises." Sha Zhengyang chuckled slightly, "It's a pity that capital is profit-seeking, and capitalists are not philanthropists..."

"How do you know this?" Cao Qingtai couldn't help but frown. Cao Qingtai was heard of the large-scale acquisition of Zhongce Company led by the Huang family in Indonesia. After all, it involves multiple provinces and cities, and spends hundreds of millions of dollars, which is equivalent to introducing investments of billions of yuan, which has also attracted a lot of attention. "Are you optimistic about these foreign acquisitions?"

"Director Cao, didn't I have a college classmate who went to Hong Kong to join his relatives? His relative is also a capitalist, and he has some understanding of this." Sha Zhengyang's face was complicated, "Foreign capital is an inevitable trend. The country should have a more specific and standardized policy to supervise this, and we must consider it carefully and long-term."

The attitude towards foreign investment has also caused great controversy at home, but after the southern tour, this wind direction will turn to the benefit of the side.

However, the large-scale entry of foreign capital can certainly bring capital and management to the domestic economy and inject vitality, but it will inevitably bring impact on national industries and may even pose a threat to some key strategic industries. How to comprehensively balance the pros and cons is also a test question that governments at all levels need to face and face in front of them.

But at this point, most people in China have not realized it yet. They only see the benefits of foreign capital coming in, and ignore the disadvantages it brings, and even regard the concerns as opposing reform and opening up. This overcorrect mentality is not light.

As a reborn person and an official who has worked at a considerable level, Sha Zhengyang naturally knows the pros and cons of the large-scale entry of foreign capital.

In his opinion, encouragement and restrictions should be carried out at the same time. The government should provide a scope of guidance for industries that support foreign investment, and at the same time propose restrictions and prohibitions. Even if it is considered that it will join the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade in the future, some things cannot be reflected in paper terms, but at least as a leader in this field, you must have a clear idea in your mind.

The country lacks experience in this area and suffers a lot of losses. Sha Zhengyang doesn’t know if he can make a difference in this life to make up for the loopholes in this area.

But his current level is too low. No matter how he jumps around, it will not affect the general trend. However, he also hopes to use other methods to exert his current meager power.

"But if these policies are introduced now, it may be a blow to the enthusiasm of foreign capital to enter. In the current climate, the negative impact may be..." Cao Qingtai tsk and shook his head.

Now, unswervingly support reform and opening up is politically correct. If anyone questions about foreign capital entry, it is nothing if it is some opinions from the theoretical community. It is a discussion anyway, but if it is a question within the system, it may cause unnecessary trouble.

"Director Cao, there is actually no need to think so complicated. It is not a bad thing to raise some political and theoretical topics, and it is not clear whether the reason is unclear." Sha Zhengyang disagreed: "We must firmly maintain a high degree of consistency with the central government in terms of attitude, but we should consider more thoroughly in specific work. I believe that the above is willing to see some targeted opinions. Whether it can be accepted will be studied and considered by the above."

"Well, Zhengyang, you think very well. This view has also been mentioned to Guo Yeshan?" Cao Qingtai asked casually.

"I didn't mention it so deeply. I just said that foreign capital can acquire state-owned enterprises. Why can't collective enterprises acquire state-owned enterprises?" Sha Zhengyang understood Cao Qingtai's meaning and shook his head and said, "I guess Minister Guo will have some ideas. He is the Minister of Propaganda. It is also appropriate to put forward some exploratory views."

Cao Qingtai smiled at the corner of his mouth. Sha Zhengyang is particularly worthy of appreciation. Every time these things can be taken out for everyone to share, so that everyone can benefit from them.

Just like Guo Yeshan, a newly promoted propaganda minister, if he can come up with some innovative views when the wind of reform and opening up is blowing, it will definitely attract the attention of the above, which is very important for the growth of a cadre.

Thinking of this, Cao Qingtai became more and more unbearable to Sha Zhengyang staying in Nandu Town.

If such talents can be transferred to the Municipal Party Committee Office and can come up with some insights, they will grow very quickly. At the grassroots level, this kind of start will be much lower and progress will be much slower.

Although he is now the general manager of the Oriental Red Wine Industry, which seems to be in good development momentum, he is a township enterprise after all. In Cao Qingtai's view, no matter how strong he grows, it is not the right way for a young cadre like Sha Zhengyang who is destined to make a difference in his career.

"Zhengyang, if you have the opportunity to go to the Municipal Party Committee Office or the Development Zone, what choice would you choose?" Cao Qingtai asked suddenly.

"Ah?" Sha Zhengyang was shocked and looked at Cao Qingtai, "Director Cao, do you want to go down? Go to the Economic and Technological Development Zone or the High-tech Zone?"

With the strong wind of the southern tour, some unknown development zones and high-tech zones began to enter people's eyes.

For example, the high-tech zone and economic development zone in Handu were both established in 1990, but there have not been many actions in the past two years of establishment, and it seems to be step by step. Moreover, the industrial aggregation and development are not good. The situation in the economic development zone is slightly better, but the high-tech zone is simply a flick.
