I'm reborn and I'm an international student again?

The Wan District was officially opened to tourism as early as 08, when it was first implemented in several provinces and cities, and was not fully opened until 11.

It is now the beginning of 10, and there are still many restrictions. For someone with Chen Xi's background, it took him some thought to get a pass in just two weeks. After all, the review is still quite strict.

At present, there are not many people from mainland China coming here, and many tourists are from Hong Kong and Sakura Country.

But we are all Asian, and some people may not be able to tell you apart unless you ask specifically.

"What are you going to do? Are you going to visit him directly?" Zhao Lingshan looked at him while dragging her luggage.

"I contacted the boss before coming here."

"Does he know that you are the son of a rival?"

"Of course I don't know. I said I was his client." Chen Xi shrugged.

"Haha, you're so funny." Zhao Lingshan covered her mouth and laughed.

"Let's get something to eat first. The food on the plane won't fill our stomachs." Chen Xi called out, and Zhao Lingshan trotted after him.

"From the mainland?" The driver was a middle-aged man. He looked at the two people in the back seat and asked.

"Why do you ask? We haven't spoken a word since we got in the car." Zhao Lingshan asked curiously.

"I can tell from the way you're dressed. It's so hot here, yet you're wearing so many clothes." The uncle answered proudly, as if he were Sherlock Holmes.

"Wow, uncle, you are so awesome. Guess where we are going next?" Zhao Lingshan looked at the other party with a wicked smile.

"Well...of course, we're going to the food court."

"That's so accurate, uncle. Where can I find the delicious food?" Zhao Lingshan asked in a coquettish voice, imitating a crooked accent.

"You've asked the right person. I'm known as the driving god of Monga. I know every street here. I'll take you to some delicious places."

"Uncle, you won't rip us off, will you? I heard that some drivers will take customers to familiar stores and then take kickbacks."

"Why do you say that, little girl? Am I that kind of person? The place I take you to is extremely economical and affordable. If you don't like the food, come to me. Those people you mentioned are all bad drivers with ideological problems..." The driver patted his chest, acting as if he was a good person. Obviously, he had successfully fallen into Zhao Lingshan's provocation.

"Uncle, is Zhongshan North Road far from here?" Chen Xi smiled and gave the address of Mr. Wang's company.

"It's not far. Our place is so small. If you want to find a private car, you can call me." The driver said while driving.

During this period, Monga City was relatively developed. Its buildings and facilities were better than those of many cities on the mainland. Its style was somewhat similar to that of the Cherry Blossom Country. The streets were filled with small motorcycles, similar to the way of travel in some Southeast Asian countries.

Yongkang Street is a famous food street with a long history in Mengjia. Its rich and diverse food and unique cultural atmosphere have attracted countless diners.

Large intestine wrapped in small intestine is a representative snack in Monga. It is made by wrapping a larger glutinous rice intestine with a small pork intestine and served with various sauces and side dishes.

"Oh my god, what is this? It looks like a hot dog." Zhao Lingshan stared at the food in front of the stall.

"One hundred cents, thank you." The boss was a cute girl who spoke in a sweet voice.

Two servings of large and small sausages cost a total of 20 yuan in Chinese currency, which is considered to be good value for money.

The most important thing is to use real materials, so there is no need to worry about any high technology or hard work.

"The food here is so cheap, it's almost like they're free." Zhao Lingshan happily took the food.

"Are you comparing the prices here with those in Australia?" Chen Xi smiled and shook his head.

"Are people in mainland China so rich now? I saw on TV that they can't even afford instant noodles. One hundred Taiwanese coins is considered cheap?" The girl muttered to herself as she watched the two people leaving.

"Dayin Restaurant... The name of this restaurant is quite interesting. Hidden in the city?" Chen Xi said, looking at the sign of a restaurant that looked quite old.

"These bosses like to pretend to be cultured people. It would be better for them to be like my house, named so-and-so Building, so-and-so Jiangnan..." Zhao Lingshan curled her lips with some disdain.

Chen Xi ate a piece of large intestine wrapped in small intestine. What can he say?

It feels like just two sausages put together, with some random ingredients, but it's essentially still a hot dog.

"Don't look at this place with prejudice. Wan District has preserved many distinctive Chinese cultures. Here you can see things that only appear in TV dramas." Chen Xi took Zhao Lingshan's hand and walked inside.

"What would you like to eat? The menu is here." The waitress saw the couple and pointed to the small wooden sign hanging on the wall.

Wanwan beef noodles, oyster omelette, braised pork rice, chicken steak...

This seems to be similar to the snack stalls that appeared in every city in the previous life.

There is also a Wanwan Restaurant in Mo Village, and the food is similar.

"Ha, this shop is doing really good business. I don't think I've seen a single fast food chain restaurant along the way." Zhao Lingshan looked around and said at the bustling restaurant.

"The pace of life here is slow, and it's not suitable for opening a fast food chain restaurant. People in the Wan District value enjoying life. You see, there are many people from Hong Kong here. They just like this sense of tranquility. The fast-paced life for too long will make people upset." Chen Xi pointed to a few Cantonese-speaking tourists nearby.

After ordering a few special snacks, the two sat down and started chatting.

"I have never understood how such a small island can have so many high-tech companies whose products cannot even be produced on the mainland." Zhao Lingshan sighed, holding her chin.

She was referring to some famous products in the market, such as Acer, ASUS, HTC, ZyXEL, etc.

"You see, Korea is not that big, but it still has companies like LG and Samsung. Let me tell you about them." Chen Xi took the time to explain before the food was served.

"Kimchi Country and Taiwan, these two regions are different. Taiwan has been promoting an export-oriented industrialization strategy since the 60s. Through government support and policy guidance, it has promoted the development of high-tech industries such as electronics and semiconductors. Then it established a number of science and industrial parks, such as the Hsinchu Science and Industrial Park, which attracted high-tech companies to settle in through preferential policies and good infrastructure, forming an industrial agglomeration effect. The government has also increased its investment in scientific research and education, enhanced local innovation capabilities, and provided a steady stream of talent support for high-tech companies. Taiwan has an important position in the semiconductor industry. TSMC is one of the world's largest wafer foundries, and its technical strength and market share are both in a leading position. Because the place is small and the market is limited, most companies here are actively implementing a globalization strategy, and are constantly improving their international competitiveness by establishing R&D centers, production bases and sales networks around the world." Zhao Lingshan handed him a bottle of drink and motioned for him to continue. She liked listening to Chen Xi talk about various things since she was a child.

"The Korean economy is government-led. By formulating and implementing a series of support policies, it has promoted the rapid development of high-tech industries such as semiconductors, electronics, and communications. The government supports large chaebols such as Samsung and Hyundai, providing them with huge support in terms of capital, technology, and markets, helping them grow into world-leading high-tech companies..."

"Young man, I didn't expect that you, a mainlander, know so much about Taiwan." A middle-aged man next to him suddenly interrupted after Chen Xi finished speaking.

"It's okay, it's okay." Chen Xi smiled at the other party modestly.

This is a middle-aged man wearing a black suit, with a slicked-back hair, and looking somewhat heroic.

"Are you here for tourism?" the man asked.

"Yes." Chen Xi nodded.

"Well, now that the Taiwan region is open to tourism from the mainland, how do you think the Taiwan region should develop economically? After all, the resources here are limited." The man suddenly raised a question.

"Of course we should implement a mutually beneficial and win-win strategy with the mainland, strengthen exchanges and cooperation, and develop together. We should strengthen trade exchanges, promote investment cooperation, and promote industrial docking, etc."

"We have a lot of advanced technology industries in our Wan District. What do you think about us building factories directly in the mainland?"

"absolutely okay."

"Then where do you think we should choose to build a factory? The coastal areas are already full of factories. If we choose an inland city, logistics will not be very convenient..." The middle-aged man picked up the cup and clinked it with Chen Xi.

Neither of them drank alcohol. Chen Xi drank a beverage, while the middle-aged man drank oolong tea.

"Nowadays, there are many places that are willing to offer very good conditions to attract foreign companies. You can talk to a few more places and go to the one that offers the best conditions. As for logistics... domestic logistics is still very developed, and technology is constantly improving. It is estimated that high-tech management will be adopted in the future. There is no need to worry at all. Don't think that transportation is so underdeveloped. You can also use water transportation in Jiangyu..." Chen Xi felt that this uncle was a businessman. He asked so many questions because he wanted to invest and build a factory in the mainland, so he made some small suggestions.

"I took a look at the current wages of the workers there, and it seems that the closer you are to the inland, the lower the wages. Your idea is good... but will there be other problems after I build the factory? The risk seems a bit high." The middle-aged man nodded first, then looked worried.

Chen Xi naturally understood what the problem he was talking about was.

"No, the more special the period, the more attention we will pay to this kind of thing. Not only will there be no problem, but we will offer better conditions... When doing business, we can't just consider one aspect."

"That makes sense. I didn't expect you to understand these things at such a young age." The middle-aged man looked at the young man in front of him with interest.

"Then let me ask you another question. How do you think our high-tech industries can enter the mainland market? Currently, only some electronic products are sold in large quantities in the mainland, but cutting-edge technologies can only be cooperated with Europe and the United States." The middle-aged man pushed a snack in front of Chen Xi, motioning for everyone to share it together.

Chen Xi didn't hesitate to give Zhao Lingshan a few pieces and started eating himself.

"Some domestic products now rely on imports for parts. The mainland is now proposing policies that benefit Taiwanese companies. Taiwanese companies can find some companies to act as intermediaries and establish cooperation with Chinese companies. This can not only ensure their own development, but also avoid being suppressed by peers due to competition. There is a saying that it is good to take shelter under a big tree, and this makes sense..."

"Oh? Give me some examples of companies." The uncle became interested and waved to the waiter, and ordered a few more bottles of beer.

"For example, Xinde Company in the mainland is a professional machine tool manufacturer that also produces a variety of advertising machine products such as 3D printers and inkjet printers..."

"Cough, cough."

"This girl must have eaten too hastily. Let's drink some beer to calm down."

The uncle opened a bottle of beer and handed it to Zhao Lingshan who was covering her mouth.

"Thank you." Zhao Lingshan thanked him and rolled her eyes at Chen Xi.

I thought to myself, how shameless of me to openly introduce my company here.

"The company you are talking about, could it be your family's?" The uncle was also a smart man and he reacted after listening for a while.

"Haha, that's right. This time I came to Wan District to seek cooperation. I saw that you seemed to run a factory, so I said a few more words." Chen Xi took a sip of beer and laughed heartily.

"Yes, I own a factory. This is my business card." The middle-aged man took out a small white card from his suit pocket.

"Chairman of Youda Electronics - Peng Lang..." Chen Xi looked at the business card and searched the memory in his mind.

"We are engaged in optoelectronic information, mainly covering TFT-LCD design, manufacturing and R&D. Optoelectronics, display integration and solar energy..." Peng Lang looked at Chen Xi's expression and realized that the other party had never heard of his company, so he took the initiative to introduce it.

However, Chen Xi was not unfamiliar with the story, but was rather shocked. He did not expect that this big boss would actually drink beer with him in this small restaurant.

U-DA Optoelectronics was formerly known as A-Ce Technology and was founded in 96. In 01, it merged with Lianyou Optoelectronics and changed its name to U-DA Optoelectronics.

In 02, U-DA Optoelectronics was listed on the New York Stock Exchange, becoming the world's first TFT-LCD design, manufacturing and R&D company listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

In 06, it acquired Guanghui Electronics again, becoming one of the top three thin-film transistor liquid crystal display design, R&D and manufacturing companies in the world and the largest in the Bend region.

Many people may not have heard of this company, but many things people use in their daily lives are related to this company.

To be precise, this is a company similar to Huajing Electronics.

"Uncle, come and build a factory in Xinlu. We are trying to build it into the second science and technology capital of the country." After taking a few sips of wine, Zhao Lingshan was able to speak freely and made a suggestion to Peng Lang.

"Oh? Xinlu? I heard that Huajing Electronics has built a factory in your place. Then I won't get any benefit if I go there. As the saying goes, there can't be two tigers in one mountain." Peng Lang smiled, implying a refusal.

"Well, it is indeed difficult to build a factory in Xinlu. Now the leaders of Xinlu strongly support Huajing Electronics and give them all the resources. If you want to build a factory, you can only go somewhere else. We also have cooperation with Huajing Electronics..."

"Oh? Then where should we go? Give me some advice."

"Qinhuai is actually not bad, but it's too close to Xinlu. Your two companies are too close, and the competitive pressure will be great. It will also lead to changes in the development strategies of the two cities... I think the development of Su Province is very balanced, so it doesn't matter where you build a factory. For example, Gusu City, which is relatively close to the Magic City, is an ideal location..." Chen Xi touched his chin and helped Peng Lang analyze the approximate location of the settlement.
