来自哈萨克斯坦的主持人伊万在中国学习工作14年，经常听到“商量”这个词，并且发现这个词与中国的民主政治息息相关。什么是“中国式民主”？普通的企业、广大老百姓怎样参与“全过程人民民主”，如何从中找到“获得感”？带着这些问题，伊万专访全国政协委员李明华、全国政协参政议政专家库特聘专家卞晋平，实地探访中国电信集团，并倾听全球化智库高级研究员哈维·佐丁的见解。伊万一路刨根问底，对比分析，最终发现，中国人赞赏的民主是：既有遇事多商量，也有投票做表决，一系列的制度保障了中国人去找到全社会意愿和要求的最大公约数，这才是人民民主的真谛。

Understand China"s Democracy Through a Proposal for Invoice Reform

As a host coming from Kazakhstan who has lived and studied in China for 14 years, Ivan has heard the word "consultation" a lot, and found this word frequently used in the conversations about democracy and the broader politics. What is exactly the "democracy in China"? How are the businesses and the people involved in the "whole process democracy"? Do they find themselves relevant and engaged? With these questions in mind, our host Ivan has an interview with Li Minghua, member of the CPPCC, and Bian Jinping, expert from the CPPCC Expert Pool for the Deliberation and Administration of State Affairs. Ivan makes a field visit to China Telecom, a leading telecommunications company in the country, and exchanges insights with Harvey Dzodin, senior fellow from the Center for China & Globalization. Taking a deep dive into the conversations, Ivan finds that Chinese people are happy with the democracy in the country, because they not only engage in the extensive consultations on state affairs, but also exercise the right to vote in decision making. The sound institutional framework guarantees that the policymaking is in line with the will of society and for the good of people"s well-being. That"s how democracy works here in China.
