Countercurrent 1982

Since 1978, the large-scale contract work in rural areas with the characteristics of private industry has opened the curtain of China's reform.

"Give up to the country and keep enough to the collective, and the rest is your own." This sentence has been widely circulated, igniting the long-suppressed enthusiasm for wealth creation in people's hearts.

So that in the following ten years, Chinese private entrepreneurs began to spring up like mushrooms, and Duan Yun himself became an idol and legend of this era.But in fact, until the 90s, the policy was still uncertain, but it is undeniable that by the end of the 20s, after 90 years of reform and opening up, all social classes in China have rapidly accumulated resources to match their own social resources.

Private property and the protection of private property are essentially not just a matter for the rich, but are closely related to every citizen.

After years of development, China's private business owners have also formed their own class, which scholars named as the new rich class.

At present, the members of the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce basically belong to this "new rich class", and their protection of their own property is much more urgent than people from other classes.For these newly rich people, some memories are hard to erase. The Wenzhou Eight Kings incident in the 80s left many Wenzhou local bosses with lingering fears, so that some private bosses who got rich first
They began to try their best to transfer their property abroad.During this trip to BJ, Duan Yun once heard from a private enterprise owner who is engaged in the optical industry that his family has been transferring property for the past 10 years, and most of the property transfers are in the name of investment or for their children to study abroad.
The reason for buying real estate overseas or direct savings and consumption is nothing more than one point, that is, the lack of security of one's own property.

In fact, this phenomenon does not only occur in Wenzhou, but also in almost all places with developed private economy across the country, many private entrepreneurs have already made preparations for asset transfer.

In the pockets of these private entrepreneurs, one or more passports are always prepared, "If the policy changes in the morning, I will leave in the afternoon."

This phenomenon is called "opening the skylight" among the people.According to statistics, at that time, China’s flight capital reached tens of billions of yuan every year, and most of them came from private business owners.
Go, the cost of loss is incalculable.

In addition to the transfer of capital, private entrepreneurs, lacking confidence in the policy, are at ease with a small fortune, lack enthusiasm for investment in expanding reproduction, and are keen on buying houses and cars to increase consumption.For a long time, China's private entrepreneurs lived in a kind of pain and absurdity, spent their days and nights, and tried their best to waste their money. At that time, "mistresses" also began to appear, including many private enterprises that Duan Yun knew.
Businessmen, they all have this kind of situation more or less. When the nature is hard to suppress the desire, this kind of moral corruption will appear.At the same time, domestic entrepreneurs are generally unwilling to disclose their property, fearing that the tree will attract attention, and some private enterprises, in order to get "equal pay for equal work" from state-owned enterprises, scramble to put on "red hats" and affiliate with state-owned enterprises...

Or collective enterprises, a large number of "fake state-run" and "fake collectives" have emerged.Some other enterprises, in order to pursue political progress, took the initiative to move closer to the organization. A typical example was in 1989. At that time, there was a document stipulating that private business owners could not join the Communist Party of China, and a private business owner in Shandong
Hearing the news, he donated his 600 million yuan asset ceramic factory to the collective, and was approved to join the party.In 1991, Brother Liu Yonghao established the Hope Group. At that time, there were a lot of discussions about private enterprises in the society. Brother Liu Yonghao felt that the ideological pressure was huge, so he proposed to the county party committee leader that he wanted to "send his company to

Fortunately, the county leaders at that time did not agree, but it can also be seen how much pressure private entrepreneurs faced at that time. In fact, as far as Duan Yun himself is concerned, if he did not have the foresight of his previous life, he might not be able to He has been high-profile for so many years. In his early years, he also wore a "red hat", and in line with the principle that eggs should not be put in one basket.
Reasonably, he set up branches overseas and placed most of the foreign exchange of the group company in banks in Hong Kong. In fact, this itself was also a kind of "defense" of the policy at that time.

And as more and more newly rich people join the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce, the protection of the property of private entrepreneurs has become one of the things they are most interested in.As early as many years ago, with the liberalization of the state's policy on private enterprises, some members of the Federation of Industry and Commerce had already put forward a plan to their superiors. This matter is also highly valued, because they themselves have been in business for generations and have experienced special times, so they can fully understand the importance that current private entrepreneurs attach to this matter, so they decided to do business this year.

In the form of group proposals above the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, proposals for amending the Constitution to protect private property are put forward.

And as soon as this proposal was put forward, the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce was pushed to the forefront of public opinion. All major domestic media had a strong interest in this proposal and launched heated discussions.On the one hand, private entrepreneurs expressed their support, and some celebrities in the economic and legal circles, and even political circles also agreed with this, thinking that in order to develop a market economy, the private economy must be developed, and the private economy must be fully developed.
To protect the economy, it is necessary to protect private property, so protecting private property is not only to protect the property of the rich, but also to protect the property of the common people.On the other hand, some scholars strongly oppose it, arguing that "protecting private property is protecting women's property". For public ownership and non-public ownership, economic equal protection is not in line with the law. Some scholars pointed out in the article

Blame the Federation of Industry and Commerce for being "representative of the economic, political interests and ideology of various retaliatory groups," and some individuals even label the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce as the "General Representative of the Bourgeoisie."At that time, the main leaders of the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce were mentally prepared for the debate caused by this proposal, because such a profound change in the country from the elimination of private ownership to the protection of private property will inevitably lead to ideological and theoretical changes.
on the style.

The key to this matter is to see how the top leaders of the country express their views.

But Duan Yun, as an important member who is about to join the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce, must also help the Federation of Industry and Commerce to advance this proposal smoothly, and this question is also of great significance to him.Considering that Duan Yun and Tianyin Group have a very strong right to speak on many domestic public opinion platforms, Jing Shuping found Duan Yun again before this Federation of Industry and Commerce meeting to discuss countermeasures together.
