Chapter 1153 The overall situation is the most important
Fan Wubing had long expected that Fan Heng could not be the kind of petty person. This time he made his own voice, which was to express the majesty of the Standing Committee. I could do things, but I couldn't treat me like a monkey. This entirely depends on how Fan is in my mood, not to succumb to the yin power of some people.
"Since things need to be done, you still have to continue to be the Standing Committee member, then you always need to do this by yourself, and you don't need to leave everyone awkward--" Fan Wubing told his father Fan Heng.
Fan Heng nodded and said, "I mean that, I just want to express my opinions appropriately. It is really not good to continue the stalemate, and the overall situation is the most important thing."
Fan Wubing smiled slightly. Although the word "the overall situation is important" sounds a bit funny, it is undeniable that in many cases, these four words are indeed heavier and force many people to make concessions. Although the original intention of this concession is not necessarily for the so-called overall situation.
"Interests determine everything, so this time the institutional reform must always be effective." Fan Wubing suggested to his father Fan Heng, "I also have a proposal for reference only."
As he said that, Fan Wubing handed Fan Heng a piece of materials that had been prepared long ago and asked him to read them carefully.
After reading for a while, Fan Heng asked in surprise, "Ministry of Construction, Ministry of Energy and Ministry of Land and Resources? Implement the majority system?"
Fan Wubing nodded, indicating that this is exactly the case.
In fact, a while ago, experts from the Center for Modernization Research of the Chinese Academy of Sciences proposed the idea of establishing the Ministry of Energy and reported it to the relevant departments in the form of an internal report, but no one agreed at that time.
Under the circumstances at that time, these researchers did not consider so much, and did not consider how scientific the function was. It was just from the perspective of scientific workers, establishing the Ministry of Energy was conducive to the implementation of the national energy strategy and the unified management of energy work. And one thing is very important, foreign countries basically have similar institutions.
Although this suggestion did not attract the attention of senior management, Fan Wubing noticed it, and he took this matter seriously.
Without any doubt, China will continue to be at the forefront of global economic growth. However, internal and external contradictions in China's economic and social development are becoming increasingly prominent.
Externally, international energy giants have repeatedly raised various price threats to China, asking for prices everywhere, and the environmental accusations have also been intensified, and China's national development strategy is facing severe challenges. Internal, the coexistence of high administrative costs and low administrative efficiency has made the existing government organization system one of the key issues criticized by all sectors of society, and has created an internal impulse to reform.
A word. It’s not OK to change it.
In the proposal given by Fan Wubing to Fan Heng, it was suggested that he should focus on the energy sector in this round of institutional reform. Under his conceived structure, the upcoming Ministry of Energy will integrate the functions of energy in the National Development and Reform Commission, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, the Ministry of Land and Resources, the Ministry of Water Resources, and the Supervisory Commission on Energy, as well as leading state-owned energy giants such as CNPC, Sinopec, CNOOC, and State Grid.
After reading Fan Wubing's plan, Fan Heng was also shocked. He thought that his son could do it. He attacked so many ministries and commissions all at once, and they were all relatively important ministries and commissions. If this knife was cut, it would indeed have miraculous results. At least many problems that have not been solved for a long time will disappear.
But there are also many troubles, because this job alone is enough to cause headaches.
In fact, in the era of planned economy, China also established the Ministry of Energy, but as its functions were gradually decentralized to state-owned enterprises, the former Ministry of Energy was disbanded in 1993.
However, for China, the world's second largest energy consumer, the importance of energy is self-evident.
The energy management system involves important areas such as oil, coal, electricity, and nuclear energy. The current management system is an Energy Bureau with only more than 30 people established in the National Development and Reform Commission. It is just a department-level unit. While large energy enterprises such as CNPC, Sinopec, CNOOC, and State Grid Corporation are all ministerial or vice-ministerial-level institutions, lacking an institution that can coordinate energy systematically in administrative systems and management authority.
As the saying goes, a big guest bullies the master. You are a small director who doesn’t even have the qualifications to talk to others. What do you still hope to do? In the domestic officialdom, it is a place where seniority is emphasized. If you mess up the rules, you will definitely be besieged by everyone.
It is obviously unrealistic to do things that offend people for the sake of public affairs.
At the same time, energy management is a long-term and is in a state of multi-level supervision by the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Commerce, and the China Electricity Commission. Taking power management as an example, there are three major departments in charge of the State Power Supervision Commission, the National Development and Reform Commission, and the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission. On it, there is also the coordination of the State Power System Reform Leading Group, and the management of oil and coal is more scattered.
When talking about the establishment of the national energy department, Fan Wubing's idea was not that simple, nor did he say that simply building the Ministry of Energy would solve the problem, but he would set up the Energy Commission and the Ministry of Energy at the same time.
"I have also made in-depth analysis and calculations about this point, and it is not casually raised." When Fan Wubing talked about these things, even when discussing them with his father, he was very serious. "Due to the scientificity, complexity and importance of energy issues, it is necessary to establish the National Energy Commission, which is the consulting and quasi-decision-making body of the State Council; and the Ministry of Energy is the executive body, accepting guidance and supervision of the Energy Commission. If this problem is not solved, the work in this area will still not be done. If the energy strategy problem is not solved in time, within a few years, you will taste the bitter fruit of not paying enough attention to this issue. I said this, but there are many judgments in it."
Fan Heng scratched his head after hearing this. The advice his son gave him was really shocking. The problem of strengthening the national energy strategy is becoming increasingly prominent. It is also necessary to establish a unified energy authority. In fact, there are also small-scale discussions within the senior management, but the agenda is not mentioned.
The most important controversy is mainly focused on the scope of the functions of the Ministry of Energy. After all, such a big move is not a trivial matter. But it should be certain that, in any case, the new Ministry of Energy will not return to the original mechanism structure, but will focus on improving the decision-making level in the energy field. Otherwise, it will not be able to play a practical role, but will only have an optional bureaucracy.
"This plan is still very valuable for reference-" Fan Hengsizhi repeated, thinking that his son's suggestion was actually very valuable. If the energy problem is solved all at once, then according to this idea. The establishment of systems such as large transportation, large land construction, large agriculture, large culture, and large finance will be natural, and there will be a model for reference.
The most important thing in formulating a large-scale system reform plan is to consider the actual needs of market economy development and social development. If the conditions are relatively mature, it can be included in the reform agenda. Fan Wubing has always attached great importance to the energy industry, especially with a large amount of energy and mineral resource reserves overseas. His view on this issue is of great significance. Even if senior management sees this plan, they must not be treated with caution.
Another point is that although Fan Heng used a move to advance and retreat, which made everyone unable to get out of Taiwan, Fan Heng himself knew very well that if there was no institutional reform, the financial burden of the central government would be heavier.
Regarding this issue, although in terms of the proportion of financial support personnel to the population, there are not many domestic government departments and administrative institutions, and they are even far lower than those in some other countries.
However, the most important problem is that this low proportion of people consumes huge administrative costs, which can be said to be outrageous when comparing with countries around the world.
Since you are a public servant, you should not live as well as the people. However, the current situation is just the opposite, which is very problematic. This situation should not occur in a developing country.
By combining and streamlining institutions, departments with overlapping functions can be omitted, and administrative expenses can be saved by reducing the scale of institutions. Streamlined personnel can also be streamlined, which can improve government administrative efficiency and reduce the situation where functions of various departments cross and shirking responsibility.
Therefore, after Fan Heng made himself proud, he still had to solve this problem. Since no one was willing to take on this burden and no one could take on it, he had no choice but to take on it. This was also his original intention along the way.
In a word, the overall situation is the most important thing!
This overall situation is not the overall situation of a few people, but the decision made by Fan Heng and Fan Wubing, father and son, who stood on the standpoint of national interests and had a long-term vision.
It can be imagined that with the rapid development of the country, the demand for energy resources will also snowball as the domestic construction speed increases and the rapid development of social economy. If there is no department that can coordinate and take overall charge of the overall situation to organize this matter, organically combine energy demand and energy strategy, there will eventually be a big mess.
After careful consideration and revision, Fan Heng threw out a new draft of institutional reform and handed it over to everyone at the Standing Committee for circulating.
"Uh--" This time everyone's expressions became even more strange. No one expected that after Fan Heng took the advance as a retreat, he unexpectedly made a gorgeous turn and returned to this topic.
