Rebirth of the Republic of China: The Story of the Chaebol

Since he turned fifty, Sun Tong has always felt that time passes extremely quickly.

He still remembers the scenes when his family lived in Shanghai, but in the blink of an eye, the Sun family now has seven or eight grandchildren.

But Sun Tong always felt that his mentality was still around 30 years old.

"Hubby, is there anything worth your attention in Hong Kong? I don't think there is anything good about that place."

As times change, the three daughters-in-law in Sun Tong's family have also changed the way they address Sun Tongcheng.

As for why Yin Xinyue mentioned Gangcheng, it was naturally because Sun Tong had just taken his group of old brothers to Gangcheng not long ago.

The Hong Kong City of this era is very different from the later generations. Although the economy of Hong Kong City has developed well in recent years, even so, Hong Kong City is said to be slightly inferior to the eight first-tier cities in South China and even dozens of second-tier cities in the country. Therefore, the three daughters in the family were naturally puzzled about Sun Tong's sudden trip to Hong Kong City.

"I just want to go out and take a look."

Of course Sun Tong would not tell the three girls that the reason he wanted to go to Hong Kong was because he had watched too many Hong Kong movies in later generations, but Hong Kong Island was still relatively backward in the 60s.

Speaking of cities, we have to mention the latest global city rankings released by the South China Times.

This ranking is the sixth professional list published by Empire Times in recent years, following the 'Global University Rankings', 'Global Rich List', 'Global Brand Rankings', 'Global Print Media Rankings' and 'Global Economic Rankings'.

This list will list a total of 100 cities around the world. In this list, Nanhua ranks first with 16 cities on the list.

Apart from South China, no other country in the world has more than double-digit cities on the list. Among them, the second most populous country, China, has only nine cities on the list.

Russia, ranked third, and Britain, ranked fourth, have five and four cities on the list respectively. Then there are Hans and Gaul, tied for fifth, both of which have three cities on the list.

What is more surprising is that there are actually two cities in Longguo on the list, and these two cities are naturally Longguo’s Yanjing and Modu.

Although Dragon Country is much more open in this life, people still have a mysterious impression of it. This time, Yanjing and Modu were able to make it onto the list, and the magazine also gave a detailed introduction to these two cities, which made Dragon Country famous internationally.

In addition to the Dragon Kingdom, there are actually quite a few countries that have two cities on the list, such as Foot Basin, whose economy has slowly begun to recover, the Bullfighting Kingdom, the Noodle Kingdom, the Maple Leaf Kingdom, and the Great Bang Kingdom, which has become the Dragon Kingdom's younger brother in this life.

With the post-war economic recovery, these countries have developed well after the war. Needless to say, the Bullfighting Country and the Noodle Country are old powers with a solid foundation. In addition, with Hans standing behind them, the two countries naturally will not have a bad time.

The Korean country has not been divided in this life, and with the big brother Longguo above it, its development in recent years will naturally not be too bad. You know, although Longguo looks poor now, it is because its population is too large. In fact, Longguo is now the fifth largest economy in the world.

Given the size of Dragon Country, if we give a little bit of our wealth to South Korea, South Korea will be well-fed by our motherland.

Compared with the first three countries, the situation in the foot basin is much more complicated.

Since the war, Jiaoben has been under the high-pressure control of Nanhua and Chouguo, and life has been extremely difficult.

But even so, the economy of Foot Basin has slowly developed over the years. After all, times are different now, and Nanhua can't do some things too excessively now.

More importantly, although the Japanese also launched a war in this life, the damage they caused to Long Country could not be compared with that in the previous life. In addition, the Chinese people had avenged their enemies, and the Japanese had never stopped paying compensation to Long Country over the years. Therefore, the hatred of the Japanese towards Long Country in this world was not as strong as in the previous life.

What can you let Sun Tong do in this situation?

Since it is no longer possible to suppress the Japanese economy, Nanhua can only change its strategy from the previous high-pressure strategy to the current economic control strategy.

In fact, the Japanese in this world are much more miserable than in the previous life. Not to mention that they were dropped so many old nuclear bombs by Nanhua during the war. The key point is that in the years after the war, Nanhua has never stopped plundering the Japanese economically.

Let’s put it this way, before 65, Nanhua earned at least billion South Korean yuan in profits from the Japanese devils, and that was at the government level. As for how much money private businessmen made from the Japanese devils, it is definitely an astronomical figure that no one can calculate.
