Starting from2008, China had suffered a series of natural disasters and thereconstruction has become the main work of the country in the past few years. Financialfund was the subject of all the money used in post-disaster reconstruction. Both inSichuan and Gansu, in process of the reconstruction, all of the use of fiscal funds inprocurement projects has been included into the scope of government procurement,which put the behavior of various departments purchasing by their own selves to theend. But facing such a huge amount of money, and frequent purchases, bring thepressure and demands to the government. At the same time, higher procurement bringsmore rent-seeking chances to the government officer and various suppliers. The subjectcomes in this special environment, what the reconstruction work related to hundreds ofmillions of people’s lives. Just as the audit report of reconstruction procurement fromthe government in recent years, a variety of corruption emerged a lot. These people tookthe law and regulations as nothing, which gives reasons to strengthen the supervisionand inspection of reconstruction. Only taking these steps could give powerful guaranteein smooth implementation. Facing many natural disasters, it is necessary to ensure thatthe various type of funds would be allocated to the disaster area, and there is more needto strengthen supervision and inspection, otherwise the corruption would emerged again,which affected the party’s image and the work of post-disaster reconstruction. Onlystrengthen the supervision and inspection, which could not be an empty promise. Theleaderships of the party committees and governments repeatedly referred to the need tostrengthen the oversight of disaster recovery and reconstruction efforts afterinvestigating the earthquake recovery and re-building work in Wenchuan, the progressof restoration and reconstruction could be guaranteed in a smooth way. The purpose ofthis research is finding ways to eliminate or prevent rent-seeking behavior effectively,which guarantee an efficient and healthy implementation of reconstructions, and makethe financial funds operated effectively.The literature reviewing method, modeling method, comparative analysis andother research methods have been used in this paper. Firstly, this paper gave describes and analyzes in the process of rent-seeking behavior, which in the normal way of thegovernment procurement. Secondly, this paper gave both objective and subjectiveanalysis for finding the reasons of rent-seeking under the big background ofpost-disaster reconstructions. At the same time, took the idea of game theory and built amodel of game theory, and gave reasoning to obtain elements of the probability ofrent-seeking. Also, against these factors, considering both objective and subjectivereasons is necessary. Ultimately, the operating method and operating principles ofgovernment procurement, how to manage the behavior of government procurement, andthe recommendations and opinions for effective reconstruction of livelihood projects,resuming production and reviving the economy have been concluded after such a bigcatastrophe in this paperThe innovation of this paper is to build a clear, intuitive, rational probabilityamong the government, procurement staff and suppliers by using the model of gametheory, and gave a clear understanding of the factors`effect in this model. What gavedistinct directions and basis points to the back proposals.
