Chapter 510 State Affairs

Ciel is very interested in everything about Dongguo. He is envious and curious. There is a lot of information about Dongguo in the briefings he reads every day.

I remember that in Fiso Port, Ke Mengchao took Charles with him and taught him a lesson for several months, mainly to let him develop certain habits, which must be developed, so it was both teaching and training.

After Charles became the president of the Kingdom of Kilili, he spent very little time meeting Ke Mengchao. But every time the old man showed up, Charles was very nervous and repeatedly wondered whether he had made any mistakes recently. This was also the psychological shadow that Ke Fuzi trained.

There was once an advisory meeting, and Ke Mengchao rarely attended. Charles was busy with work and was rushing to read today's briefing before the meeting. Suddenly he heard someone ask: "What are you looking at?"

Hearing this voice, Charles reflexively jumped up from his chair and stood up straight, and replied eloquently: "The daily briefing provided by the Secretariat... Mr. Ke, would you like to review it?"

Ke Mengchao smiled and took the folder over, but did not open it and asked casually: "Why do you have to read this every day?"

Charles: "What important events are happening internationally and domestically? I must understand the situation."

Ke Mengchao: "When things are said to be big, where does the bigness lie? In the public, in the reason, or in the measure?"

Charles: "The outline is always great, and the greatness lies in Mingde. This is what you always taught me.

All organized norms of human behavior, including personal and social behavior, are ‘big’. To see its greatness is to grasp its essence. "

Ke Mengchao: "What about what others taught you?"

Charles: "Human, earth, heaven, and Tao are the four major elements in the domain. The most important thing is to see the subtle and the basic. This is what Mr. Yang taught... Behind countless complex phenomena, there are simple and simple laws."

Ke Mengchao nodded slightly: "I didn't ask you to memorize the quotation. Let's talk about it in detail."

Charles: "If you don't say that the principles of ancient times are constant, let's say that the principles of today are constant..."

Ke Mengchao interrupted him and said: "There are both ancient and modern principles, and there are no ancient and modern principles. The so-called principles are great, regardless of ancient or modern times."

Charles was stunned for a moment, then carefully organized his words and said: "If we talk about it from this level, the so-called outline is the latitude and longitude of everything, which is what Mr. Yang calls Skynet."

Master Ke interrupted him again: "Let's not talk about the net of law and heaven, just talk about his human nature."

Charles: "The outline is the purpose of order. On what principles are the legal system, administrative system, and production relations determined, and with what goals are they implemented and operated? Don't look at their propaganda, but understand their essence.

Changing is the need that is indispensable every day in reality, what people need to identify with, believe in, maintain, and experience every day. The system is always born, and the system is always controlled... Oh, I just realized that this is a bit like the economic base and superstructure. "

Ke Mengchao smiled: "It's a bit similar, but it's not exactly the same thing. The so-called Gangchang is both the foundation and the pillar. When we say that Gangchang is big, how big is it?"

If someone else had spoken like this, Charles might have been impatient, but he didn't dare and wouldn't do it in front of Master Ke. He thought for a while and said, "For example, how much does firewood cost per pound and where can I buy it? This is Chang. Because everyone has to cook every day.

Therefore, how many people are there in each city, how much usage is required every day, how many outlets are needed, and how to mobilize transportation are also common. The current price of firewood and whether it is affordable compared with the family income is still normal.

Then organize the production of firewood and ensure the demand for consumption. This is the outline. Based on the current income level, it is also the outline to decide how to price and subsidize firewood to ensure that every family can afford it...

If there is an order that you are not allowed to use firewood for cooking, or that you must use firewood for cooking, this is still the rule. "

Mr. Ke: "Today's meeting is about fuel for residents' lives, so you used it as an example. Your answer is somewhat correct, but not quite. Let's talk about it."

Charles continued honestly: "Is organizing the production, transportation, and distribution of firewood to develop the firewood industry, or to solve the fuel problem of residents' lives? Both seem to be solutions. They seem to be the same thing, but they are not the same. Something happened.

The purpose of the former is to benefit from firewood, which is the outline. It also needs to expand production scale, improve production technology, reduce production costs, and then occupy market share, form a joint monopoly, and obtain pricing power.

The greater the market demand and the higher the price, the more advantageous it is. If it has gained momentum, it will inevitably suppress competitors and restrict competitive industries through various methods, such as hindering the promotion of briquettes and liquefied gas.

It is also common to replace firewood with briquettes and liquefied gas. It is "normal" to advocate "lending without hesitation".

The pipeline liquefied gas and natural gas I saw in Dongguo are clean and convenient. They are dimensionality reduction measures in the industrial era. If production develops to a certain level, firewood and briquettes will inevitably be unable to compete.

When it becomes unprofitable, the use of firewood and grass is abandoned and replaced by piped gas for profit, and the cycle repeats.

The purpose of the latter is to solve the fuel problem of residents, this is the outline. Based on this, firewood is the most realistic choice at present, and there may be better choices in the future.

It is "always" to advocate "respect, cherish and use frugally", whether it is firewood or other living fuels.

It also needs to expand production scale, improve production technology, and reduce production costs. If there is a better choice in the future, then choose better living fuel.

But no matter how abundant the supply of firewood is and how reasonable the pricing is, there are still extremely poor families who cannot afford it. This is no longer a question of firewood production. It depends on whether it is their own problem or a problem of social distribution. They must be given opportunities that they can afford.

All in all, Chang is the way of producing and using firewood, and the key is the essential purpose of this way. "

After finishing speaking, Ciel took a breath secretly. Ke Mengchao frowned slightly: "Uncle Qin Mo taught you some words, right?"

Charles: "I used to go to the grocery store to find Xiaohua, and I often saw how Mr. Yang and Mr. Mo taught, uh, educated Xiaohua."

Ke Mengchao: "Then let me give you another example. It is written in many books. It is a set of theories.

If the supply of firewood is insufficient, prices will naturally rise. As the price rises, the profits from producing it will naturally increase, and then more people will produce firewood. As supply increases, prices will fall again, eventually reaching equilibrium.

The 'normal' it advocates is non-interference, non-interference, and trying not to care about them. So what is the 'outline' it represents? "

Charles: "Aren't you always talking about the country of Jili? For many years, no one has intervened in the firewood market, but no firewood industry has been developed at all, and the people have always been short of living fuel.

I had a banana farm back then, so I didn’t need to buy firewood. In fact, few people in our neighborhood spend money to buy firewood. They either go to the suburbs to cut it themselves, or steal some and collect various things that can be burned, such as garbage.

There are often many people from several families gathered around an earthen stove, burning all kinds of garbage for cooking.

According to Mr. Yang, this theory does not conform to the principle of entropy increase at all. I also asked specifically what the principle of entropy increase is. The example you always give, if it does work in a certain situation, there must be something else at play.

Doing nothing is not a state of inaction... Sorry, I mentioned Mr. Yang's words again. "

Ke Mengchao: "It doesn't matter whether you mention Lao Yang or not. I just want to ask about his outline."

Charles: "The losses are just enough to give more than enough. The essential purpose is winner-take-all and resource annexation.

It is said that it does not comply with the principle of entropy increase because this model itself is unstable. In theory, it is also the least efficient way of organizing production and cannot automatically return to the equilibrium state it describes.

There is no industry that can be entered freely without cost or barriers. If the farms and plantations that produce firewood are in the hands of others, how can you enter this market?

If there is only one company left, is there any argument for non-interference? Wouldn't it interfere with its own internal production behavior? The Dongguo political textbook that Xiaohua showed me already contained analytical theories, which every Dongguo middle school student has learned. "

Mr. Ke laughed again: "The examples I gave and the analysis you mentioned are all theories written in textbooks. The key is, what kind of principles are these theories advocating for? We must be clear .

There are many things that so many smart people in the world have not thought of, but what they think and what you think are not the same thing. "

Charles: "Today's advisory meeting is to study and discuss these issues. According to our assessment, firewood can basically meet the current demand. In the next step, briquettes can be appropriately promoted according to conditions."

Master Ke: "Let's not talk about briquettes for now, let's talk about what Lao Yang taught you, such as the Law of Heaven's Net and the Big in the Small."

Charles: "The net of law and heaven is the law of nature. No one can mess around with the actual conditions. The big things are small, and big things don't need to be earth-shattering. Sometimes it only happens to one person, and you have to think about whether it is possible. Happens to everyone.”

Ke Fuzi shook his head slightly: "I understand it well, but it's just not enough..."

The old man wanted to test a few more words, but someone had already come over to remind him that the meeting was about to start, so the chat ended here. Today, Charles told the story again based on his memories, and tried his best to imitate the expression and tone of Mr. Ke.

Everyone was silent for a moment, not understanding what he wanted to say. In the end, You Fang smiled and said: "President Xia, you can already write a paper on this topic. No wonder Xiaohua wants you to study for a Ph.D."

Hua Zhenxing asked: "You have preached so many truths and even brought out the Master, so what do you want to say?"

Charles picked up the cup and said a little enigmatically: "Do you know? He Guang knows a friend from Dongguo who runs an online store. Her online store has been operating for ten years, but it was blocked by the platform last month. The complaint It’s not solved yet!”

Wang Fengshou: "You're thinking too fast, aren't you saying there are major domestic affairs to discuss?"

Charles: "The outline is always great, and the greatness lies in the clear virtue; the greatness of the net of law and heaven lies in the small. As the leader of a country, I ask you, who has the right to seize or close a store?"

There are many departments such as industry and commerce, taxation, public security, quality inspection, health, and fire protection, involving different management authorities. If the store violates relevant laws and the evidence is conclusive, it can be shut down according to law.

But let me ask you again, does one store have the right to seal another store? Does one company have the right to seize another company? They certainly do not have this right, nor should they have it, but in fact they have it, and they even exercise it every day, and no one cares about it.

This is a big deal, a big deal for the gang. If there is constant chaos, the gang will collapse! "

Wang Fengshou coughed twice: "This kind of thing may be complicated. It's hard for us to make a conclusion as there is a situation in the East Kingdom."

Charles: "I didn't tell the leaders of Dongguo, I told you. What I care about is not the present of Dongguo, but the future of Jili Kingdom. Will Jili Kingdom be like this in the future? Is this also the case?

Yesterday at lunch, I asked He Guang to invite the shop owner over. We had a working meal together and chatted with her for a few words. You were all busy at the time, so you probably didn’t pay attention. "

Wang Fengshou quickly explained: "I know about this. You asked He Guang to invite some familiar Dongguo citizens to have lunch together to understand the people's sentiments in Dongguo. The list passed my hands, but I didn't expect..."

Charles: "There are too many things going on these days. I didn't want to say anything now, but after hearing Zhang Buying's experience just now, I think it is necessary to discuss it. The boss is also named Zhang Ying, and Zhang Buying is the same as Zhang Buying. The only difference between Ying and Ying is that she is a woman and she is very beautiful."

Wang Fengshou: "I know, she is thirty-five years old, eleven years older than you. Her husband died of illness three years ago and she has a daughter. You and she are not suitable, no matter what, don't mess with her." Come!"

Wang Fengshou was indeed very competent. Charles invited several Dongguo citizens to the work dinner yesterday. He had read the list and remembered them all. He had to ensure that there would be no problems with these people, but unexpectedly it seemed like something was wrong with Ciel.

Charles: "I'm not interested in her person, I'm interested in her things. A widow with a minor child, similar to my aunt back then... Let's not talk about these, let's talk about the online store.

She opened an online store and made a living because it was cheap and convenient to open an online store. Later she gradually started doing it, and it has been ten years since last month.

Although it is an online virtual store, it still needs to be run, and even more efforts are put into it, such as improving ratings, stabilizing the customer base, and participating in promotional activities... According to her, the cost of acquiring customers has become higher and higher in recent years, and promotion expenses have increased. The more expensive it is, the more traffic you get without spending money.

The reason why she can still do it is because of the accumulation in previous years, including old customers and some personal relationships. For example, Lu Guang's cousin is her elementary school classmate.

Now there is a question, she asked me at the dinner table, does such a store have property rights? If so, what does the property right include and who owns it? Although it is just an online virtual store, it also contains years of labor investment and has store value.

If she did nothing illegal or violated any regulations, who has the power to seal it?

Not to mention who will bear the loss, big platform legal firms have plenty of ways to deal with her, Lawyer Dong said. Lawyer Dong was there yesterday and told her that the only way to avoid losses was to not let this happen.

But is this what she wants to happen? She suspected that a competitor made a malicious complaint, and He Guang even found out who did it. The platform only reported that someone had complained and it was being processed, but there was no result at all, and no one came to her to verify the evidence. "

Wang Fengshou: "Well, it depends on the agreement she signed with the platform. Didn't Lawyer Dong tell you? Usually in this case, the platform has the right to interpret the rules."

Charles: "Lawyer Dong said it! But the power of the platform actually includes national administrative power and also involves citizens' rights.

Civil rights are first of all economic rights and labor rights. Personal property also includes virtual property and intangible property, especially digital property, which are the fruits of personal labor. Under what circumstances, who has the right, and in what manner, to deprive and dispose of it?

Have you discovered that the platform agreement you mentioned has actually replaced national legislation? If the situation remains unchanged, what happened to Zhang Ying may happen to everyone. "

You Fang slowly interjected: "I finally understand what Mr. Xia wants to say, please help explain a few words.

The reason for this is that the functions of many large network platforms have actually included part of the state's administrative functions and have become the latest way to realize traditional civil rights.

Because times have changed, the way people exercise their various rights has also changed.

For example, the right of speech, including the right of expression and publication, is now almost impossible to achieve without using online platforms, which has become extremely simple compared to traditional methods. But any convenience comes at a price, and it’s difficult to regulate using traditional methods.

Looking at it from another perspective, the platform has powers that it shouldn’t have, but in fact it also assumes corresponding responsibilities.

Take the case of the pretty widow Zhang Ying, for example. If there were any problems with her store, it might be troublesome for law enforcement agencies to punish her, and they often won't get anything. However, you can go to the punishment platform, and maybe you can get a large fine.

In this case, the law enforcement agency may not recognize the disclaimer clause signed by the platform and her. If something happens to her, the platform may suffer along with it, so in many cases, whether she has a problem or not, the platform will just deal with it. "

Charles: "I know Yuzhen said that this is the reality, but that doesn't mean anything. Let me ask you, are you willing to be treated like this? If we talk about reality, the country of Jili three or five years ago was still full of gangs!

According to me, this kind of power and responsibility should not exist unless there is another more reasonable way of management authorization.

Okay, let’s put this aside for now and let’s talk about another thing. I got a report last year. It was a hot search on Xiaohua, the largest self-media platform in Dongguo, and it seemed to have led to a scolding war, and many accounts were blocked.

There are many nonsense accounts that should be banned, but the more critical question is, by whom, in what way, and on what basis?

Commercial platforms are private and content-limited, and they can set their own rules. For example, on a car forum, administrators can delete posts advertising alcohol sales, which is no problem.

However, some large-scale open self-media platforms actually have the function for citizens to exercise their rights of speech. How should this situation be handled or managed?

In an era like this, if your voice cannot be heard, you are deprived of your right to speak. The right to speech is also a kind of civil political right, and deprivation of political rights is a kind of punishment. Who has the power to judge and execute it?

Let’s also assume a situation where someone has been operating an account for ten years, published a lot of original content, and has huge traffic value. Yes, it is called traffic value, which also involves economic rights.

Yesterday at noon, I asked a question. Social accounts have been disabled. For example, the Weixin account has been blocked. What does it mean?

They all told me that it means that they are completely unable to live a normal life. This is not just about contacting relatives and friends. Daily study and work must rely on social accounts, such as various groups.

So who owns the social account? It has become a must for the normal exercise of civil rights! Who can directly deprive another person of his de facto civil rights without going through legal procedures?

Let me talk about one more thing, such as Zhang Buying, who everyone just mentioned. Where did he go every day and what did he buy? If this information was mastered and used by someone with ulterior motives, it would be scary to think about it!

I just learned an idiom yesterday, which is called "Think carefully and you will be afraid."

Someone knows what brand of underwear you wear, what size condom you use, what cup size you wear, whether your breasts are real or fake... plus some simple algorithm processing, just like Zhang Buying, they also know who you are with. Dating, where to date.

This is data in the information age. Who owns this data and how it is used? Doesn’t the future of the country need to be considered? Unless we don't enter this era, we need to solve this problem from now on.

The existing legal systems and administrative management systems in various countries around the world were established before this era, and they did not anticipate today's situation when they were established.

Chang has changed, where is the outline? The so-called outline is not the system itself, but the purpose of the system. "

After Charles finished his long speech, the hot dishes on the table were all cold, and everyone's eyes became serious. There are indeed issues in this area in the Kingdom of Kilili, but it is not the current key plan. Ciel may have been a little stimulated in the past two days, so the topic is ahead of schedule.

Hua Zhenxing looked at Charles seriously: "So, what's the plan you came up with?"

Charles didn't answer the question, looked at the tall rice wine glass on the table and said: "According to your wishes, I will bring Luo Feiyu to all the foreign affairs activities these days.

Let her stand in as conspicuous a position as possible, accept various interviews, leave video records on various occasions, and she was also featured on the Dongguo News Broadcast.

The purpose of this is to leave traces of her existence. Even thirty or sixty years later, people can still easily find images and photos of her in various periods, with conclusive time records.

Dr. Luo and the Forgan Foundation also selected a group of such people. We initially had ten, and then another group was added, bringing the total to a hundred people, but that's just over a hundred people... "

Li Jingzhi asked in confusion: "What exactly do you want to say?"

You Fang interjected: "He wants to say that since the Internet can preserve traces of a person's existence, it can also erase traces of a person's existence."

As expected of a young wanderer, his brain was half a beat faster than Hua Zhenxing's. He didn't react until he finished saying Hua Zhenxing, and then Wang Fengshou showed a look of surprise.

Ciel nodded and said: "Yes, after I came to the East Kingdom, I felt that this place and the Kingdom of Kilili were two worlds and two eras. In fact, when I was in the Kingdom of Gil, I felt the same way when I thought back to three or five years ago. .

In this era, too many things rely on the Internet, so it can really erase the traces of a person's existence. In theory, it can make you speechless, unable to go out, unable to go on the street, and so that no one can see you. information from the past.

Let’s just talk about the records of more than a hundred people. All their information in the world can be made disappear, and even if there is still, it can be made invisible to people. You tell people it's true, and there are people who can make people believe it's a lie. "

Wang Fengshou: "Mr. President, let's talk about the key points."

Charles: "The point is that we need to clarify the concept of national digital sovereignty and thereby clarify online citizenship."

I have an immature idea. The country of Kilili has done a very good job in registering residents. On this basis, giving everyone a digital identity will be tied to the existing identity registration system.

This is the only digital identity that corresponds to each person and represents the implementation subject of online citizenship. You can call it a meta-account. Citizen yuan account is a common account for all network application platforms.

All network application platforms must be developed on this basis. In theory, all citizens are its users and can become its users, but the ownership of the account belongs to the citizen himself.

The so-called user account within the network application platform is just a secondary account of the Yuan account, which is automatically generated by the Yuan account. There is no need to register separately, but various user nicknames can be used.

Users can also sign certain special user agreements with the platform, such as premium membership agreements, which is essentially a transaction to purchase value-added services.

It's like when we go to a store to buy something, the identity of the customer has nothing to do with the store. It does not involve legal control of ordinary goods and services, and stores cannot require customers to submit other information materials. They just switch to the Internet, and transaction records can be automatically generated and retained.

I consulted a technical consultant and even called Dakezi specifically to find out that it is technically possible. "

Li Jingzhi: "Let me interrupt, you seem to be using the real-name system on the Internet."

Hua Zhenxing knocked on the table and said: "It's different. It's not just a matter of the real-name system on the Internet, nor a difference in technical means, but a difference in legal subjects... Mr. Xia, go on, think about it, whatever you think. How to say."

Charles: "Achieving it requires a material foundation, which is the yuan account network platform established by the country. Dongguo's big factory platform can have billions of accounts. I also heard that some dramas have hundreds of billions of views, so technically There is no problem. There are only more than 10 million people in Kilili country.

This meta-account platform itself has a self-media function, which is equivalent to a personal online space and can publish various personal information, including text, images, audio and video and other personal creations.

Citizens own the ownership of this account and also bear the legal responsibility of this account.

In addition to self-media functions, it also has social software functions and can develop social application interfaces for use in any occasion of study and work. It also needs to integrate online shopping, online payment and other functions, because these all represent certain civil rights. "

Wang Fengshou: "Is this all what Da Kezi said?"

Charles: "It was his introduction on the phone, but it also matched my ideas."

You Fang: "Are you taking the existing network application platforms, mainly those that residents must use, and turning them into government-run ones?"

Charles shook his head and said: "I'm not going to nationalize all those Internet platform companies. In fact, there is nothing in Jili Country now. What I mean is that the Yuan Account Platform is the embodiment and guarantee of Internet citizenship, and the country must provide it. Provided from the start.

Anyone can use the existing network application platforms, but they all need to be developed on this basis. For example, whoever wants to open an online mall is welcome, but the user account is not his, but belongs to the user himself, including digital rights. "

You Fang smiled: "It's very innovative. It even solves the problems of taxation and data hierarchical management. I've read about it in science fiction novels."

Wang Fengshou: "Wait a minute, I think you are talking about the concept of the metaverse, the metaverse at the national level?"

Li Jingzhi: "I thought the Metaverse was about creating a realistic digital world. Wearing VR glasses, you can go around."

Hua Zhenxing: "This is not a contradiction. It is the metaverse that uses the real country as the data model and can be technically expanded."

You Fang tapped the table with his finger again and said: "I have another question. What you just mentioned are individual users, but what about merchants? For example, there is a Ms. Zhang Ying in Jili Country. She wants to open a store. In your case What would happen in your imagination?”

Charles: "This is not complicated, just a digital legal person account. When the industrial and commercial system registers as a legal person, a digital legal person account is generated at the same time. She can open a store on the Yuan account platform, and the platform itself has display, transaction, and payment functions.

In the future, all legal persons in Jiliguo will also be digital legal persons. They will have the functions and permissions of online stores. It is their own choice whether to develop on the Guoyuan account platform. They can also only do online or offline business for the time being. Down.

Zhang Ying, Zhang Ying from the Kingdom of Li, can also join some online shopping mall platforms to promote promotion and diversion. The secondary application platform can cooperate with her or not, but it cannot block her digital legal person account or close her meta-platform store.

The development of various commercial application platforms requires the use of the data interface of the Yuan Account Platform, which requires payment.

Therefore, in the long run, although the country requires investment to establish a yuan account platform, it also generates income. We are not for profit, and the revenue is also included in the national finance and used for public expenditures, including welfare expenditures.

I have another idea. I heard that the Dongguo Internet is equivalent to a Dongguo LAN. Many domestic users cannot get out, but overseas users can enter..."

You Fang: "Yes, this is a question. If such a national metaverse is established, how will it be connected to the world Internet?"

Charles: "Isn't that what I'm thinking about! Since there is such technology, like coated glass that can be shielded in one direction, can it be reversed in China? Users within the country can go out, but users outside the country can enter. Not coming."

You Fang: "Any technology has limitations. You can't completely block overseas users. They can still come in through various agents. But even if they come in, they don't have the digital citizenship of several countries. How do you plan to solve it?" "

Charles: "That's right, that's what I want to achieve! Non-Chinese citizens don't have meta-accounts. Even if they can register accounts on various secondary application platforms, there are significant differences that can be seen at a glance.

It is impossible to completely distinguish. For example, they can steal the identity of a citizen of Kilian Kingdom, or a citizen of Kilian Kingdom lends their account to them, but if something goes wrong, it is easy to find out who it is. "

Hua Zhenxing finally said: "Then what you were worried about just now is more likely to happen in such a metaverse. If a person's metaaccount data is deleted, it is equivalent to social death. This is a double-edged sword!"

Charles: “So there must be legislative protection, and only under this circumstance can online citizenship rights be truly protected.

The legal root data of the meta account cannot be deleted, and other derived data at all levels cannot be deleted within the specified period of time. If you are subject to relevant legal penalties, certain functions of the meta account can be disabled within the specified period.

The reasons for punishment, the methods of punishment, and the objects of punishment are all directly marked and publicized on the corresponding location.

In fact, last year, through Lang Xiaomin, you suggested to the Dongguo self-media platform that they could not handle problematic accounts, but we will strive to do so in the future. "
