Professor Peking University and famous economist Xiao Zhuoji called Dong Fureng the "number one seed player" in economics.
Economist Zou Hengfu: Mr. Dong Fureng has made a pioneering contribution to the market economy reform and economic development in China in theory and practice.
The representative of China's economic growth theory.
As early as 1950s and 1960s, Dong Fureng put forward a numerical model about the quantitative relationship of reproduction, which was regarded as "the representative of China's economic growth theory". In the early days of reform and opening up, he bravely put forward the policy suggestion that the direction of enterprise reform should be "separation of government and enterprise" and "separation of government and society"
"A Generation of Economics Masters"
He first proposed and always insisted that ownership reform became the key to China's economic reform. His research and theoretical courage in this field made him famous at home and abroad. 1984 He won the first Sun Yefang Economics Prize. These remarkable achievements earned him the reputation of "master of economics".
One of the few scholars who can influence the major decisions of the China government.
Someone commented on his life like this: "In the scarce time and life, economists tried to maximize social welfare and made due contributions."
As a member of the 7th the National People's Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC) and vice chairman of the Finance and Economic Committee, the 8th the National People's Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC) and vice chairman of the Finance and Economic Committee, and the 9th Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and vice chairman of the Economic Committee, Dong Fan is considered to be one of the few scholars who can influence the major decisions of the China government.
Pioneer of ownership reform
In the early 1980s, he was keenly aware that the reason for the failure of reform in the socialist countries in Eastern Europe was that only the economic operation mechanism was reformed, but not the ownership system. He boldly pointed out that only by reforming ownership can socialist countries achieve the success of economic system reform. At that time, some people criticized him for putting forward this theory prematurely, but the practice of China's reform proved his profound and unique insight.
Private economy escort
He devoted himself to China's industrialization and urbanization, new industrialization road, SME financing, the establishment of GEM and the development of securities and futures markets. He is called "the escort of private economy". His eyes have never left Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the most active fertile soil of China's economy. He not only theoretically analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of "Wenzhou model" and "Sunan model", but also encouraged the development of private enterprises many times.
Pioneers and active practitioners of theory.
He has always analyzed the development of the capital market with a calm and rational eye, emphasizing the concern for the vulnerable groups. He believes that China's capital market is actually a new market that has not yet been transformed. During this period, there are still many major historical problems that have not been solved, such as the problem of non-tradable shares and the problem that shares cannot be fully circulated. Therefore, we must respect the national conditions and give priority to protecting the interests of shareholders.
Dong Fureng is not only a pioneer of theory, but also an active practitioner. As economist Lang Xianping said: "It is no exaggeration to say that without their efforts, our life might not be like this today." He is one of the few economists who have been paying attention to the development of China futures market. As a deputy to the National People's Congress, he submits his proposal on the development of the futures market at the "two sessions" almost every year.
Two months before his death, he dragged his sick body from the United States to the board of directors of Dalian Commodity Futures Exchange to perform his duties and obligations as a director. He paid close attention to the latest development of new futures varieties in big exchanges, encouraged them to continue their efforts, and expressed "shame" at their inability to do anything.
