When I am reborn, I just want to be a top student

"Can't you understand?"

In the office, Wang Donglai looked at Chen Lingyue's hesitation and asked.

Chen Lingyue thought about it and nodded.

"I really don't understand. Are we just giving up on the overseas market?"

Chen Lingyue really couldn't understand this.

From Wang Donglai's attitude, he could see that he didn't attach any importance to developing overseas markets.

If the company simply refuses to allow overseas investment institutions to invest, it can be explained as being afraid of losing control of the company.

Then it would be a bit nonsensical to give up entering overseas markets.

Don't try to earn the money that is readily available.

Given the excellence of Galaxy Technology's products, as long as it enters overseas markets, it will inevitably earn huge, even excess profits.

This is recognized by everyone.

From Evergreen Liquid to contact lenses, Wang Donglai has refused many times.

At this moment, Chen Lingyue couldn't suppress his curiosity and doubts, so he asked.

However, Wang Donglai did not directly answer Chen Lingyue's question, but asked another question.

"Before I answer your question, let me ask you a question first. What do you think is the most correct thing we have done in the past forty years?"

Wang Donglai asked this question very calmly.

Chen Lingyue fell into deep thought and began to ponder.

Although this question was a bit abrupt, Chen Lingyue didn't think that Wang Donglai would ask an irrelevant question.

"Change it?"

Chen Lingyue asked tentatively.

Wang Donglai shook his head.

“Private property rights?”

Wang Donglai still shook his head.

Chen Lingyue also frowned, thought about it again, and said aloud: "If it's not reform and opening up, or private property rights, then I really can't think of what it is!"

Wang Donglai looked calm and spoke his answer softly.

"Actually, the two things you said can be considered neither wrong nor right, but I just don't think so."

"In my opinion, joining the WTO is the most correct thing we have done, bar none."

When Chen Lingyue heard Wang Donglai give this answer, he quickly recalled relevant information about the WTO.

After all, he is a talent who can become a senior executive of Juhua and is valued by Wang Donglai.

Chen Lingyue quickly recalled the relevant matters regarding joining the WTO.

Our country only joined the WTO in 2001, but before that, we had gone through countless negotiations.

It took 15 years in total, which is quite a long time.

But judging from the achievements after joining the WTO, this effort is completely worth it.

The encyclopedia says this about the significance of our joining the WTO.

This event marked a new stage in China's economic development. Joining the WTO provided China with a larger market, enabling Chinese products to be sold to more countries, thus promoting economic growth.

These two seemingly simple sentences highly condense China's development achievements.

Just when Chen Lingyue was still seriously thinking about the true significance of joining the WTO.

Wang Donglai spoke up: "According to data from the United Nations Industrial Development Organization, as of now, our country produces nearly one-third of the world's manufactured goods, which is more than the Bald Eagle Federation, Cherry Blossom Country, Germany, Kimchi, and the British Sun combined."

"What does it mean that one-third of the finished products are sold?"

"In the entire human society, if you randomly throw out three things, one of them is produced by us."

"If it's just like this, I can't consider it the most important."

"The real great thing is that after joining the WTO, we have liberated a large number of redundant rural populations, instead of trapping them in the countryside and locking them to the land."

"The value created by industrial society is undoubtedly greater than that of agricultural society."

"In the agricultural society, the strength of young and strong laborers can only be put on the land. One strong laborer or ten strong laborers cannot increase the output value of the land tenfold."

"It can be said that the efficiency of small-scale peasant economy, which has not formed a certain scale of agricultural operations, is extremely low, and the output return rate is even more frighteningly low."

"A large tractor can plow an acre of land in just over ten minutes, and can easily plow hundreds of acres a day. This is equivalent to many manual labors."

"After we joined the WTO, a large number of cross-border trade orders poured in, which greatly promoted our economic development."

"Although not everyone can be a boss, the income from being a worker is far greater than that of a farmer."

"If workers weren't making more money than farmers, there wouldn't be so many migrant workers."

"Land can only keep people from starving and support a simple life."

"If we really want to live a good life, we must develop industry and absorb more jobs."

"One of the greatest significances of joining the WTO is that it has enabled hundreds of millions of our farmers to transform themselves into workers, using the profits from industrialization to feed their families and live a better life than before."

"I was born in the 1990s, and I vaguely remember things from my childhood."

"The clothes I wear are old ones that have been worn by others, and I can only eat white rice and meat once every ten days or half a month."

“What I fear most is asking for money, because I know there is no money at home.”

"The sensitivity and inferiority caused by economic hardship will slowly become embedded in our bones as time goes by."

"In just a dozen or twenty years, our country has changed a lot and developed at an astonishing speed."

"There is no doubt that this is a great miracle in the history of human development."

"but!"

Chen Lingyue listened very carefully and kept thinking in his mind.

When I heard this, I knew that Wang Donglai was going to tell me some important information.

"Everything will turn to its opposite extreme, and prosperity will eventually decline. This is the law of nature!"

"Our previous high-speed development was just an abnormal performance in a special period of a certain stage."

“This pace cannot be sustained forever.”

"For other countries to develop to this level, it took decades or even hundreds of years of accumulation."

"And we did it in a fraction of their time."

"Such a speed will also bring a problem."

"The Bald Eagle Federation did not let us join the WTO out of kindness, but because they wanted us to come in as a supplier of materials for their high-welfare, developed country."

"As we develop, we have attracted the attention of Western developed countries, led by the Bald Eagle Federation."

“They won’t let us get to the top and continue to develop in peace.”

"According to my inference, our international situation will usher in a great change."

"That is, the external environment will become harsh."

"For example, the Bald Eagle Federation will initiate economic sanctions against us!"

"Please note that this sanction will be comprehensive and systematic."

When Wang Donglai was reborn, the economic and trade conflict between the two sides had not yet stopped.

Without a system, Wang Donglai would not be able to predict what the subsequent development would be. However, after Wang Donglai raised the two subjects of [Politics] and [Economics] to a certain level, he had a very clear understanding.

This economic and trade competition is inevitable no matter from which perspective.

Not only that.

This confrontation will continue, and both sides will continue to escalate the situation until one side is completely defeated.

Of course, it won’t be like the Cold War back then.

After all, the international situation was not like that at that time.

The Bald Eagle Federation will shrink its strength and firmly control its inherent territories, and its comprehensive strength will still be the second in the world.

And China will become the world's number one, replacing the Bald Eagle Federation.

Originally, this time would be in a later period of time.

But this world does not develop according to the inherent plan.

China is intent on developing quietly and accumulating strength. The Bald Eagle Federation is no fool and can naturally see this. It will never give this opportunity.

It is said that men's happiness is simple.

sex!
Violence!

Key politics!

Religion and anti-religion!

As for trimming donkey's hooves and washing blankets, they are just substitutes for the above pleasures after they have been castrated.

Chen Lingyue is also a man and has this gene in his bones.

However, because of his identity, many things cannot be expressed freely.

But there was no such problem in front of Wang Donglai.

So, after thinking for a while, Chen Lingyue said: "According to what is said on the Internet, the Bald Eagle Federation is a company disguised as a successful country."

"If there is a trade dispute with us, given our capabilities and the supply of products to the Bald Eagle Federation, it will inevitably cause opposition from some of their own forces."

"For example, Apple, a company that is a member of the Bald Eagle Federation, has a considerable portion of its production lines and production capacity provided by us."

"Many of our companies have investment shares in the Bald Eagle Federal Consortium. If the trade war really gets intense, don't they worry about losses to their domestic interests?"

Wang Donglai nodded, feeling quite satisfied that Chen Lingyue could ask such a question.

"You asked a good question. We provide nearly one-third of the world's manufactured goods, and the European and American markets are the best consumer markets in the world with high profits."

"For example, in the case of shoes, last year's data showed that each person in the Bald Eagle Federation consumed about eight pairs of shoes per year, while we consumed 2.5 pairs."

"If we lose the European and American markets, with our production capacity, no one will be able to consume our huge production capacity."

"We have never really advocated consumption."

“Frugality, this is what we have been promoting.”

"This cannot be said to be a mistake, it is just a choice made based on different positioning."

"We don't need to deliberately promote consumption. We can earn a lot of profits through exports to improve the domestic economic level and people's living standards."

"This route was not wrong before."

"But as the intensity of the trade war intensifies, the situation is different."

"We have always been the largest trading partner of the Bald Eagle Federation, which means that the Bald Eagle Federation has always been our largest customer."

"Whether customers are more important or suppliers are more important is a matter of opinion."

"We have at least a million people working in export trade, and more broadly speaking, tens of millions."

"Behind these practitioners are millions and tens of millions of families."

"They all rely on the export trade to support their families."

"In this way, neither side has the option to give up."

"One is hegemonic status, and the other is people's livelihood."

"In my opinion, in the early stages, many people may have harbored illusions that this matter could be resolved through negotiation."

“But in reality, this doesn’t work at all!”

"At this point in time, the market is no longer very important, and economic contradictions have reached a serious level."

"Therefore, in the next two years, expanding overseas markets will be a laborious and laborious task that may not bring much benefit."

"Instead of doing that, I might as well simplify it!"

“We don’t set up factories overseas, and we don’t sell directly overseas.”

"Just export the products directly and make all the profits at the time of export."

"As for overseas dealers, how much money they can make depends on their methods."

"We don't care!"

"Our core is still to develop technology and be based on technology."

After listening to Wang Donglai's long speech.

A thoughtful look appeared on Chen Lingyue's face.

After a while, Chen Lingyue asked, "What if I guess wrong?"

"If this situation does not occur in the next few years, then we will miss out on overseas markets in vain."

"Although we are confident in our product technology, it would be a pity to give up like this."

"Most importantly, this will almost cut off our chances of being listed on the Bald Eagle Federation."

"Moreover, if we do this, we will also offend those Bald Eagle Federation capital giants, and they may resort to some means against us."

A trace of worry, hesitation and other emotions appeared on Chen Lingyue's face, which mixed together and seemed even more complicated.

Hearing Chen Lingyue say this, a smile appeared on Wang Donglai's face.

"What you said makes sense!"

"But I am absolutely sure about this matter!"

"This is not emotional nonsense, but a scientific prediction based on reality!"

"If you feel that what I said is not convincing enough, I can make a mathematical model and use data to show you how high this possibility is."

“By the end of the year, or next year, it will all kick off.”

"As for the threats you mentioned, I don't care."

"If what I'm saying happens, everything will change and their threats will become a joke."

"As for going to the Bald Eagle Federation for listing, that's even more impossible."

"If this time comes, I'm afraid that those companies that were originally listed in the Bald Eagle Federation will choose to delist and return to Hong Kong to re-list."

"This is no longer a business behavior, but a statement."

“Times have come to this point, and there’s not much we can do.”

Wang Donglai's tone became somewhat lonely when he spoke to the end.

He wanted to do a lot, but over the past few years, not much had changed.

Chen Lingyue also suddenly realized something and finally understood some of Wang Donglai's previous behavior. (End of this chapter)
