When will I have a long tassel?

Seeing that Wang Bingsen was rendered speechless by Tang Zifeng, Hu Qiu consciously came to the rescue. He asked Tang Zifeng: "Mr. Tang, what you said, yes, it must be right. But in this case, won't we Chinese become the ones who are taken advantage of? We are also developing countries, why do we do this? What global governance matters require our money and efforts?"

Tang Zifeng did not answer Hu Qiu's question directly, but turned to Wang Bingsen and asked, "Mayor Wang, do you also have this idea?"

"This..." Wang Bingsen was speechless again. He did have this idea, but he couldn't say it out loud. Hu Qiu actually said it for him. However, on the other hand, Tang Zifeng's words just now touched him a lot. He felt that there might be something wrong with his previous thoughts, but he couldn't figure out where he was wrong for the moment.

Tang Zifeng said: "This is why the leaders sent Professor Wang to lead a team to Fengpu Town. If our grassroots cadres cannot understand the national policy, things like Fengpu Town will continue to happen in the future.

"Global governance pursues win-win results, rather than making China suffer. You only see China investing money and efforts in the construction of the Belt and Road Initiative, but you fail to see that China is also a beneficiary of the Belt and Road Initiative. This is your limitation. sex."

"Mr. Tang, we have to ask you to clarify this for us," Wang Bingsen said.

"Let me give you an example." Tang Zifeng said, "Baonan is a world-famous small household appliance production base. The output of some of our small household appliances has reached more than 90% of the global output. You all know this, right? "

"I know, I know!" All the town officials nodded.

"However, in recent years, Baonan's production of small household appliances has stagnated, and its development speed is far slower than in previous years. Do you know this, right?"

"This... is mainly because the market is saturated. It has little to do with whether our Baonan companies are working hard or not." Deputy Mayor Li Shiwei argued.

In the past, economists also came to Baonan to criticize, saying that Baonan's slow economic development in recent years was due to conceptual issues. Baonan locals were very dissatisfied with this.

In the past, Baonan's rapid development was because Baonan's companies were grabbing the market share of foreign companies, and every little bit they grabbed meant a little profit. At present, the small household appliances produced by Baonan have occupied 90% of the global market, and some of the remaining 10% are occupied by companies from other provinces and cities in China. No matter how hard Baonan's companies try to grab this 10%, their growth potential will only be a little bit.

The market is so big, can you blame us?

What Li Shiwei just said was to refute the accusations of those economists. In his opinion, Tang Zifeng must also be saying this cliché.

Who would have thought that this was not what Tang Zifeng was talking about. He gave Li Shiwei a thumbs up and said, "Mayor Li said it very well. The market is saturated. No matter how hard a company works, it is impossible to make a bigger one." performance. However, if we can expand the market from a market of 2 billion people to 4 billion or 6 billion, will our company have greater profit margins?"

"Expand the market? How to expand?" Li Shiwei was a little confused.

Wang Bingsen reacted immediately and said: "Mr. Tang means that we help the development of the Belt and Road countries so that the people there can also have spending power, so that they can also afford our Baonan products." For small household appliances, the market has expanded?”

"That's right." Tang Zifeng said, "Think about it, Baonan's small home appliances are traditionally exported to Europe and the United States. Europe plus the United States, plus Japan, Canada, and Australia at most, the total is 10 Hundreds of millions of people, right? How many small appliances can they consume in a year?

"And if we can develop Southeast Asia, South Asia, Central Asia, West Asia, and Africa, this will be a market of 3 billion people. Even if only 1/3 of the population can afford to consume our products, it will be quite large. Yu has developed a new European and American market, isn’t this market enough for us to do?”

"But if these places develop, they will also manufacture small household appliances. Wouldn't they in turn steal our market?" Li Shiwei choked.

"This is a very good question." Tang Zifeng praised Li Shiwei again, "Yes, places like Southeast Asia, South Asia, and Africa are all areas with rich labor resources. Once they develop, they will definitely steal our labor-intensive products. on the market.

"But do we in China always have to make labor-intensive products? Shouldn't our workers do jobs with higher technical content? Shouldn't we rely on high technology to make money like Western countries do?"

"I'm afraid this will be difficult." Hu Qiu said, "Westerners have the technology and have already occupied those profitable products. How can they be willing to let them go?"

"This is what we have to do." Tang Zifeng said, "We cannot stay at the bottom of the industrial chain forever. We must gradually transfer those hard, polluting, and unskilled jobs to less developed countries. The country will go. And we ourselves will become equipment manufacturers, high-end material suppliers, brand owners, and technical standard setters.

"How Westerners made money from us in the past, we will also make money from other countries in the future. First, we can build factories in developing countries and put the small home appliances we originally produced in those countries to make them, so that local workers can Wages are earned and we earn profits.

"Secondly, the core components of small household appliances are still made in China, and these core components are the most profitable. It is equivalent to us eating meat and others drinking soup. This is the meaning of win-win.

"Further up, we provide the equipment used to produce small household appliances, such as various machine tools. The technical content of machine tools is much higher than that of small household appliances, and the profits are higher. We make money from this high technology. "

"What about the Japanese and Germans? Won't they buy their machine tools?" Li Shiwei blurted out.

Tang Zifeng said: "So far, the Japanese and Germans still have the largest share in the machine tool market, but our goal is to squeeze out their market share. In fact, we have done a good job in Lusanya , the reputation of Changying Machine Tools has surpassed those well-known brands in Japan and Germany. In time, it is not impossible for us to completely squeeze out Japanese and German machine tools from Lusanya."

"That's so beautiful!" Hu Qiu exclaimed, "I've seen articles posted by others in the past, saying that companies in our country are working hard to make socks and gloves, but they can't make as much money selling a container of goods as they do with a machine tool. . Now our machine tools are sold abroad, and we can make much more money than before."

"I'm afraid this will take some time, right?" Wang Bingsen said hesitantly.

"It's actually very fast." Tang Zifeng said, "Mayor Wang, think about it, how long has it been since the founding of the People's Republic of China? When the People's Republic of China was founded, we had almost no ability to make machine tools, and we even had to import nails. Now we It has been able to compete with machine tool powers in the international market.

"Ten years, or twenty years, may be a long time for a person, but for a country, it is just a short moment. As long as we follow the right path and do not slack off, we will be technologically advanced What’s so difficult about defeating the European and American powers?”

"I understand." Wang Bingsen nodded and said, "We are too narrow-minded. We only see the ravine of Fengpu and cannot think of the overall situation of the country. After listening to the teachings of Professor Wang and Mr. Tang, we can be considered enlightened. The horizon is widened.”

"Opening your horizons is not enough." Wang Zijie spoke, "Xiao Wang, tell me now, do you know what mistakes you made?"

“We produce low-quality machine tools and counterfeit the Changying brand, which harms African users. In doing so, we not only undermine the country’s One Belt, One Road strategy, but also tarnish the country’s reputation and affect Mr. Tang’s competition with Western countries. .Our behavior is really..., uh..."

Wang Bingsen couldn't speak any more. Following his words, he had to say that he was worse than a pig or a dog, or that he was guilty or something. But then I thought about it, and I couldn't put such a big label on myself. If these fools across from me used his words to talk about things, wouldn't he be in a cocoon?

"Forget it, don't hold on to the big hat. Mayor Wang, now you understand the reason, and you also understand our purpose. Let's talk about it, how is Fengpu Town going to handle this matter?" Tang Zifeng said.

"We immediately shut down all the companies involved and shut them down!" Li Shiwei responded.

"There will be fines, heavy fines! At least one family will be fined... 100,000 yuan!" Hu Qiu also followed suit, but when he mentioned the amount of the fine, he would inevitably be rude. Folks from the countryside, don't be too harsh.

"This actually has no effect." Wang Bingsen said with a frown.

"What do you mean?" Li Shiwei and Hu Qiu were both stunned.

Wang Bingsen said: "Lao Li, Lao Hu, you are all old people in Fengpu Town. Do you think that just banning these enterprises and adding a fine of 100,000 yuan can deter these people?"

"This..." Both of them showed embarrassed expressions.

My family knows their own affairs. Fengpu Town started its business by counterfeiting. It has received various inspections and punishments over the years. It is common for businesses to be shut down. But every time the limelight passes, these unscrupulous and profiteers will come back again. The previous punishments are just drizzle for them and cannot hurt their skin.

As soon as Wang Zijie arrived, he slapped a label on Wang Bingsen and others, saying that he had poor political awareness. This shows that this matter is no longer a simple issue of illegal business, but an issue that affects the overall political situation of the country. In the face of such a problem, can we just use some symbolic punishment measures to get through?

Don't forget, accompanying Wang Zijie and Tang Zifeng was Director Zhang Yu of the mysterious department. If Fengpu Town cannot come up with a solution that satisfies the country, the country will take action on its own. By then, can the small town of Fengpu withstand the wrath of thunder?
