Reborn since 1993

Chapter 697 A single move affects the whole body
Wu Yaoguo and Liang Bohua were also lost in thought at this moment. They were not afraid of a thousand things, but of one thing. What if Paul Krugman's bad prediction really came true? How would they respond?
You know, one move can affect the whole body. Wu Yaoguo and the other person are each in charge of a large number of affairs, even if they are not the company that directly exports products to Southeast Asia.

But can we say that the companies within their jurisdiction or invested in have no connection or business dealings with those export companies? By then, there is a risk that these will become bad debts!
Gu Xiguang was silent for a moment and then said, "There are candidates for consultants, but to be honest, it's not easy to hire trade scholars with an international perspective."

No matter what era, when it comes to academic matters, as long as you delve into a subject and study it thoroughly, and become an expert in that field, you will basically be a guest of honor, a role that everyone will compete for.

"There is a professor at the University of Finance and Economics in Yenching who holds similar views to Paul Krugman. He is one of the famous "economic pessimists"!"

Gu Xiguang said, to put it bluntly, this scholar is worried about various things every day, crying wolf every day, saying there are risks here and problems there. Who would like to be intimidated every day? Naturally, he is not welcome in the Economic and Trade Commission and other departments.

Looking at Li Dongling, Gu Xiguang said, "If necessary, the Economic and Trade Commission can recommend Mo Gaoliang and several other international economic and trade scholars to Dongling Hi-Tech!"

The relationship between Dongling Hi-Tech and the Economic and Trade Commission is well known to everyone. Several major projects of Dongling Hi-Tech are key projects of the Economic and Trade Commission. Gu Xiguang really does not want Paul Krugman's bad words to come true.

If there really were problems with Dongling Hi-Tech's foreign trade orders, Yanjing's Economic and Trade Commission, Foreign Exchange Department, Development and Reform Commission, Industry and Commerce Department and other departments would probably be more anxious than Dongling Hi-Tech.

The entire Dongling Hi-Tech now has less than 80 employees, mainly in the three major production bases of Pingyang, Yangcheng and Shanghai, which account for more than % of the employees.

But these are not counted as the employees of Dongling Hi-Tech, the employees of the industrial chain companies that provide parts to Dongling Hi-Tech, the employees of the dealer companies that sell Dongling Hi-Tech products, the warehousing and logistics personnel, supporting facilities companies, third-party maintenance, after-sales and other personnel.

If we include those companies that copied Dongling Hi-Tech, the number would be even greater. The number of jobs created by Dongling Hi-Tech in China could easily be 20 to 30 times the number of people employed by Dongling Hi-Tech.

Just like Apple in its previous life, it seems that the headquarters has only more than 16 employees, but in China alone, it has directly or indirectly created more than five million jobs.

Dongling Hi-Tech's current influence is not as great as Apple's in its previous life, but there is still a large group of people who rely on Dongling Hi-Tech for their livelihood. In other words, perhaps millions of families rely on Dongling Hi-Tech for their livelihood. How can Gu Xiguang not be worried?

“As long as Professor Mo Gaoliang and others are willing to come to Dongling Hi-Tech as consultants, we will offer them a salary that is enough to satisfy them!

Dongling Hi-Tech is just being prepared this time. After all, Dongling Hi-Tech has many big projects this year, and no one wants any accidents to happen!"

Li Dongling said this with a hint of meaning. Gu Xiguang, Wu Yaoguo and others thought that Li Dongling was referring to Gangcheng Telecom. After all, it had been rumored for a long time that Li Dongling was going to acquire Gangcheng Telecom.

However, after this incident, Gu Xiguang was a little anxious to go back and find the professional experts from the Economic and Trade Commission to do some research on Southeast Asia's economy, trade and foreign exchange, so that the Economic and Trade Commission could make preparations in advance to avoid being affected!

After drinking a cup of tea, Gu Xiguang could no longer sit still, so he left directly, preparing to go to the provincial capital of Hanxi and fly back to Yanjing.

Wu Yaoguo also found an excuse to leave. He planned to sort out the accounts of Hanxi Guotou and recover part of the money invested.

Regardless of whether there will be accidents or not, Wu Yaoguo knows that only by having money in hand can he avoid accidents and live longer!

After Gu Xiguang and Wu Yaoguo left, only Li Dongling and Liang Bohua were left. At this time, Liang Bohua naturally had no worries.

"Mr. Li, to be honest, I have been wondering over the years, if Dongling Hi-Tech was in Shangzhong, what would Shangzhong be like today?!"

Liang Bohua made no secret of his envy for Pingyang. He was so jealous that his eyes were red with envy. What else could he hide?

Last year, Pingyang entered the top 48 economic cities in China and finally ranked th in the country. This is because Dongling Hi-Tech’s revenue was not all counted in Pingyang.

If all of Dongling Hi-Tech's revenue was included in Pingyang's GDP, Pingyang's domestic ranking last year would have placed it directly among the top 30 of the top 100 cities in China.

As for Shangzhong, it is not on the ranking list at all. How could Liang Bohua not be envious?

"Liang Shiyan is too serious!"

Li Dongling looked at Liang Bohua, "Dongling Hi-Tech has always been cooperating with Shangzhong!"

Liang Bohua shook his head. "Boss Li, you know what I want is not the kind of cooperation that would have a few more Dongling Hi-Tech agents in Shangzhong, but the kind of cooperation that would have been had between the Oriental Times Mall and Shangci Company!"

Looking at Liang Bohua with a burning gaze, Li Dongling tapped the table lightly with his fingers. To be honest, Shangzhong's geographical location and resources are a bit weaker than Pingyang.

The entire Shangzhong City is really surrounded by mountains and crisscrossed by five major rivers. There is actually not much land available for development. As a result, Shangzhong’s industrial heritage has not been very rich over the years. “Dongling Hi-Tech will support a number of companies in Shangzhong and incorporate them into Dongling Hi-Tech’s parts industry chain.”

Looking at Liang Bohua, Li Dongling gave him a shot of prevention in advance, "But Liang Shi, you also know the foundation of Shangzhong. Even with the support of Dongling Hi-Tech, it is probably difficult to have component suppliers of the level of Dongxin Semiconductor, BYD, Hanxi New Materials, and New Oriental!"

These companies are representative companies among Dongling Hi-Tech's parts suppliers. They are now in full swing and can even be said to be the leaders in their respective industries.

Liang Bohua was silent for a while. He knew that what Li Dongling said was the truth. With the business background, even with the full support of Dongling Hi-Tech, it was impossible to create a giant technology company out of nothing.

Looking at Liang Bohua with a gloomy face, Li Dongling said, "I think the cooperation model between Shangci and Oriental Times Shopping Mall can be replicated!"

"What does Mr. Li mean?"

Liang Bohua, who originally felt that this trip was a failure, suddenly brightened up his eyes.

"Shangzhong's climate, environment, agriculture and traditional Chinese medicine are all very unique, and it is also known as the hometown of walnuts. Oriental Times Shopping Mall can cooperate with Shangzhong to promote healthy green food, snacks, and traditional Chinese medicine and other industries.

In the future, these products may be exported overseas. Now they are very popular in America, old Europe, and Japan!"

Oriental Times Shopping Mall also needs to cultivate and support some allies to help it fight against rivals such as Walmart.

Shangci is a company that, if it can develop a snack shop model in the future, such as brands like Busy Snacks, Laiyifen, Qia Qia Food, and Zhao Yiming Snacks, it will also be a great help to Dongling Hi-Tech.

When these cases occur, naturally a large number of companies will join the Oriental Times Shopping Mall camp and want to get the support of the Oriental Times Shopping Mall.

Of course, for Shangzhong City Government, if a snack giant of the same level as Snacks is Very Busy could emerge, the agricultural products grown in the city government would have no worries about selling.

It is even possible that a snack giant company with annual revenue of tens of billions will emerge, with a large number of chain stores in the country, which can bring huge revenue and jobs to the business.

If we start building momentum in advance, we may be able to export it overseas, just like in the live streaming era of the past, when domestic anchors exported goods overseas, providing new employment opportunities for students majoring in English and other foreign languages.

Under the title of domestic high-end products, hazelnut snacks claiming to be natural, sugar-free, and flavor-free are sold overseas for US$29.9 for four bags, while domestically they are sold for RMB 9.9 per bag...

Listening to Li Dongling's words, Liang Bohua was somewhat tempted. It was hard to say whether it would succeed or not, but for him, introducing Dongling Hi-Tech and Oriental Times Shopping Mall to Shangzhong was already the best effort he could make now.

To be honest, Dongling Hi-Tech is a company in Hanxi Province. If it were a company from outside the province, it would probably not even consider Shangzhong, let alone give it a helping hand.

"On behalf of the Shangzhong Municipal Government, I would like to thank Dongling Hi-Tech and Oriental Times Shopping Mall for their support!" Liang Bohua stood up, stretched out his hand to Li Dongling and said.

"Mr. Liang is too polite!"

Watching Liang Bohua leaving, Li Dongling rushed towards the fishing grounds of Yuhe Leisure Resort.

The cooperation with Shangzhong is just the beginning. In the future, after Dongxin Company starts operating, it will settle more projects born from "I Love Invention" in different regions, making these places gradually become the basic base of Dongling Hi-Tech.

……

There are only a few days left in the Spring Festival holiday, and Li Dongling has had a rare chance to relax during these days. Li Dongling, Yao Luoying, Li Dongyue, Li Dongshan and his wife, and a group of people rushed to Pingyang Animal Park.

Last year, Li Dongling and his colleagues, together with Dongling Hi-Tech, adopted a panda named Dongxing.

This year, the first phase of Pingyang Zoo has been completed, and parts of the zoo and park areas have been opened to the public. Although it will take another one or two years to complete the entire project, the zoo is now open to the public.

When Li Dongling and his friends drove over, their first feeling was... there were a lot of people!
To be honest, the location of the animal park, in the suburbs of Pingyang, is a bit remote, but along the way, there are almost endless buses, motorcycles, bicycles, and all kinds of pedestrians on the road.
