China''s historic shift- from a nation emerging from the
shadows of decades of diplomatic and economic isolation to a major
player in the world arena - was by no means certain when Zhu Rongji
took the helm as Premier in 1998. Deng Xiaoping''s reform policies，
begun in 1978， had set the nation on the path toward rapid
development and modernization， and opened the
door to international investment and trade. By the late 1990s，
however， this direction was challenged by a host of troubles： an
overheated economy threatening inflation， redundant state-owned
enterprises， creeping corruption， and a gaping disparity between
coastal and inland economies. The harder， more fundamental reforms
needed to solve these problems， were yet to be tackled. It would
take a very committed and strong-minded reformer to bring about
these often politically difficult changes. To usher China into a
new age of international responsibility， it would take a leader who
could communicate especially adroitly and comfortably around the
world.
These traits - and Zhu''s critical role in moving China forward -
are amply evident in this collection of the Premier''s talks and
interviews with foreign journalists.
Originally published in Chinese in 2009， it was the first book to
give such a wide-ranging， front-row view of Zhu at work in
conducting and explaining China''s foreign and economic policies
during his time as Vice Premier of China （1991 to 1998） and then
Premier （1998 to 2003）， It also offers readers a glimpse of Zhu''s
forthright character， his feistiness and sense
of humor.

內容試閱：
Our principal policies and measures have consisted of the
following: First， we strengthened the agricultural sector. The high
industrial growth rates of 1992 and 1993 came at the expense of the
agricultural sector and the interests of the farmers， and the
result was skyrocketing prices for edible grains. During the
three-year period between 1994 and 1996， we twice raised the
government purchase prices for grains and cotton. We also adopted a
series of measures to stabilize produc-tion relationships in
villages， ensure the supply of agricultural inputs such as chemical
fertilizers， and reduce the tax burden of farmers.
These measures had the effect of motivating farmers to produce.
In each of the past two years， edible grain production increased by
more than 20 million tons. This summer we had another bumper grain
crop，so although the autumn harvest may decline due to weather
conditions，grain production for the entire year won''t be much less
than that oflast year， which was an exceptionally good year. The
abundant grain supply has stabilized the price of food， which
accounts for a large share of
household consumption budgets. This was an important reason for
the rapid decline in the rate of price increases.
Second， beginning in the second half of 1993， we restored order
to the financial sector and implemented appropriately tight fiscal
and monetary policies. We were able to restrain excessive increases
in the money supply and the over-expansion of fixed investment.
Compared to 1993， the rate of growth of aggregate fixed investment
in 1996 dropped from 61.8 percent to 18.2 percent and the rate of
growth of the broad money supply （M2） dropped from 37.3 percent to
25.3 percent， thus ensuring the basic equilibrium of the
macroeconomy.
