At present, the new system has just been established. The nine-member team has a lot to do, and Su Yonglin also has a lot to do.
For example, the determination of candidates for the Central Committee meeting, according to the final decision of the temporary nine-member group, will mainly be based on two aspects: political performance and military merit, that is, those who have shown outstanding talents and made visible government and military contributions.
A famous general with great military achievements.
Catch the selfless "Bao Gong" who has many corrupt officials.
Local officials who work hard and work hard to lead the people to build their homes.
A cadre of the Renaissance Association who has achieved outstanding results in mass work.
These outstanding talents with certain years of experience in politics and the military, who are at a certain level or above, possess certain qualities, are capable in all aspects, and are generally recognized, will be selected to join the Central Committee to participate in the discussion and final decision-making of national affairs.
The judgment of public representatives is even more complicated and requires more work.
The qualification requirements for candidates to be elected to the Central Committee are very high, and they are mainly concentrated among officials and cadres. There will not be many successful candidates, and the number is easy to control.
But the scope of popular representation is too broad.
The scope of farmers, industrial workers, grassroots soldiers, etc. across the country is very wide, and it is also very difficult to select representatives, which requires a long time of preparation and execution.
Don’t think about elections for the time being. Conducting large-scale elections requires a lot of time and energy, as well as extensive publicity and training. This can be steadily promoted in the future. The current actions aimed at establishing the system still focus on efficiency.
The current era can be regarded as a pre-democratic era, referred to as the "era of political discipline".
Therefore, Su Yonglin led a nine-member decision-making team to conduct in-depth and detailed research on this issue, and conducted in-depth discussions on a series of detailed issues.
For some issues that cannot be decided or are highly controversial, professional seminars from various departments must be held.
For example, in terms of how to select representatives of industrial workers, Su Yonglin found the person in charge of each factory, as well as Xiao Cui, who was a factory worker, and consulted them on the spot about the situation inside the factory to understand the actual situation of the workers.
The decision-making group then decided to determine whether a person is qualified to become a worker representative based on the number of honors a worker has received from the public in the factory and the number of awards received from the factory.
These are hard conditions and must be met without compromise.
In addition to these hard conditions, there are also soft conditions, such as sending people to conduct overt and covert interviews with people around the candidates to judge the candidates' personal moral character. If the candidate has poor moral character, he or she cannot become a worker representative.
Only those who pass the three aspects of industrial skills, work enthusiasm and personal morality can be selected as representatives of industrial workers.
After confirming that they have become representatives of industrial workers, they will be issued a voucher, and when the representative meeting is held, the local government will make unified arrangements to take a bus and take the official road or waterway to Zhongdu to attend the meeting.
The expenses shall be borne by the imperial finance.
It is relatively simple for industrial workers, including military soldiers, because the number of people is limited and the work location is fixed, so it is easy to select outstanding representatives to speak for the group.
Peasants are the foundation of the entire Ming Dynasty. The number of employees exceeds 90% of the entire Ming Dynasty population. They are the most prosperous profession in the world from ancient times to the present. No other profession can compete with this profession in terms of the number of employees.
Moreover, there are really too many farmers, so it is very difficult to select them, and the number must be guaranteed, otherwise there will be no representation.
The only thing worth comforting is that in this era when collective farms are being vigorously promoted across the country, the degree of collectivization of farmers has been greatly improved, and they are no longer the state of the bulk small farmer economy more than ten years ago.
Therefore, it is not too difficult to select suitable farmer representatives based on collective farms, and to select hard-working and outstanding farmer representatives from collective farms one by one.
Like factories and the military, collective farms led by the grassroots organizations of the Renaissance are equivalent to farmers' organizations. There are also a series of production competitions within the organization, such as "rice transplanting expert", "farming champion", "grain growing king" and other honors. The title is quite interesting.
To some extent, this also greatly reduces the difficulty of selecting farmer representatives.
So Su Yonglin is really grateful for his decisiveness. If the small-scale peasant economy continues to be allowed to continue, under this decentralized production state, who knows how long it will take to find enough farmer representatives.
But when collective farms were widely used in North and South China and began to be implemented steadily, it was not that difficult to select and arrange peasant representatives.
At least it is targeted, instead of running around all over the map, and the amount of time, energy and money required is also greatly reduced.
The nine-person decision-making group took out many of the plans that were initially discussed and assigned them to specific service departments. They met separately with the service departments to host various meetings and discuss various possibilities.
They will gradually improve the preliminary draft during this process.
Su Yonglin also strictly adhered to his political commitment. In the process of decision-making on specific affairs, he only focused on the military and the work of the Ministry of Industry.
When it comes to the selection of deputies to the Central Committee and people's meetings, they are only responsible for the parts they are responsible for and do not interfere with the normal selection of other aspects.
Only when the nine-member decision-making group needs to come up with a formally promulgated and implemented decree for final review, will Su Yonglin exercise his veto power.
He will take time to review many laws that are about to be promulgated and implemented, check the last hurdle, veto some laws with obvious problems, and require reconsideration and decision-making.
As for how to improve it again, that's not something Su Yonglin needs to worry about.
The four important political reform tasks included hundreds of laws and regulations that needed to be implemented. If it were originally placed, Su Yonglin would hold the meeting until it collapsed.
In this decision-making process, Su Yonglin only needed to participate in the decision-making of the military and the Ministry of Industry. He did not participate in other decision-making processes and left it to the remaining eight people in charge of the reform work of various departments.
Su Yonglin used his supreme prestige to dominate the army selection process, which was most likely to cause trouble.
With Su Yonglin in charge, the military generals with great military achievements would not dare to cause trouble even if they felt they had been wronged.
Especially the Five Tiger Generals of the Ming Dynasty, with their great military achievements and majesty, others would not dare to compete with them.
Even if Su Yonglin is willing to hand over this power, the prestige of Xin Qiji, the second-largest military figure in the Ming Dynasty, is not enough to suppress them for the time being.
Therefore, it is actually beneficial for Su Yonglin to retain absolute power in the military. The arrogant and powerful generals will not dare to cause trouble, and the reforms involving the military will be carried out naturally without hindrance.
