Chapter 187: Polar Bear's Big Move, China's Opportunity Has Come

In the capital's winter, the sky is full of smog.

Many people feel that if they go back to the 1970s and 1980s, they can see blue sky and white clouds.

This is obviously wishful thinking.

Since most people rely on burning coal for heating, and they use honeycomb coal stoves at home, smog is inevitable.

Coupled with some sand layers around, the winter weather in the capital at that time was really no better than in later generations.

Jiang Hui wrapped himself in a military coat and headed towards the Capital Manufacturing Plant in the cold wind.

When I arrived at the factory, I parked my bike as usual, had a hot breakfast in the cafeteria, and returned to the office.

"Master, did you see the news today? Polar bears have invaded A country."

As soon as he saw Jiang Hui, Chen Chenxing came over immediately.

He knew that Jiang Hui was very interested in various international events, so he also developed the habit of reading the newspaper early in the morning every day.

In order to report various news to Jiang Hui in a timely manner, Chen Chenxing often arrives at the office half an hour earlier than Jiang Hui.

Don’t underestimate this half hour. It doesn’t matter in the summer. It’s better to leave early to cool down.

In winter, that means Chen Chenxing would ride his bicycle out from home before dawn.

“Polar bears invaded A country?”

Jiang Hui became excited immediately after hearing this.

Others may not know how big the impact of this incident is, but how could Jiang Hui not know?
A country is known as the graveyard of empires.

The polar bear thought that the matter would be over within a month. In fact, they had basically completed the occupation of Afghanistan within the first half of the month.

But, things have just begun!

This war, which has lasted for ten years, will bring tremendous changes to the entire world.

The polar bears in the 1970s were at their strongest.

Especially in recent years, globally, polar bears have been on the offensive, while America has been on the defensive.

One of the main reasons why America was able to restore relations with China some time ago was that China’s relationship with the polar bear was very bad.

Based on the principle that the enemy of my enemy is my friend, the relationship between the two sides improved rapidly.

The next ten years will be a honeymoon period for both sides.

This information flashed through my mind quickly, and there were so many opportunities contained in it.

This is a great opportunity both for Jiang Hui personally and for China as a whole.

Now polar bears are invading Afghanistan, and soon the Iran-Iraq War will begin.

The production capacity that is about to be eliminated by military factories will soon have the opportunity to generate foreign exchange.

However, historically China has not had much experience in this area and has missed many opportunities.

Some manufacturers are eager for quick success and instant benefits, which has also damaged their reputation.

If we can fully utilize these opportunities, it will be possible to upgrade China's military industry.

"Master, the polar bears are now at their strongest. I feel that the country will be completely defeated in less than a month."

Seeing that Jiang Hui seemed to be lost in thought, Chen Chenxing interrupted.

Just look at the map and you can get a sense of how powerful polar bears were during this period.

Even America has to retreat.

"On the front battlefield, we could not hold out for less than a month, or even half a month. The main battle was over in a week."

"I guess America was still gathering its allies to discuss countermeasures at that time."

"The polar bear must have thought the same thing. He caught everyone off guard and settled the matter before anyone could react, creating a fait accompli, and then slowly started to argue."

"However, anything can happen during the process of wrangling."

"There are mountains everywhere in the country. Even if the polar bears quickly occupied the main cities, it is impossible for them to completely control the mountainous areas. There must be many resistance forces here."

"Even if they don't exist now, Americans will make them appear and make them exist."

Jiang Hui felt that he could reveal some vague information to Chen Chenxing so that what he did in the future would not seem too strange or abrupt.

This war is destined to last for a long time. Even if what we can do in the short term is limited, there will still be a lot of room for maneuver later.

This is something that many people in China have not thought of, nor dared to think of.

Or even if you think of it, you don't dare to do it.

After all, the situation in the early 1980s was completely different from that in the 1990s.

When the polar bear collapsed, many traders made a fortune from it.

However, when polar bears invaded Afghanistan in the 1980s, few ordinary Chinese people made a lot of money from it.

Or rather, there is none at all.

At least not in the early days.

"Master, it seems that what you said is right. The conflict between Americans and polar bears has been going on for a long time."

"Now that the polar bear has brazenly launched a war, it is impossible for Americans to remain silent. Otherwise, people all over the world will be watching it, which will definitely have a huge impact on America's prestige."

"But it is unlikely that Americans will officially fight polar bears. That would be too horrific, and it is a situation that no one wants to see."

"I just don't know what the United States will do."

Chen Chenxing said curiously.

"Annan was very close to the polar bear before. He was considered a close friend of the polar bear."

"With the support of the polar bear, Annan launched wars in the surrounding areas."

"This is certainly something that Americans cannot accept, and it is certainly something we cannot accept."

"So our relationship with the United States improved rapidly. The chief designer even visited the United States and then taught Annan a lesson."

"I think the polar bear's behavior in Argentina this time is likely to be similar."

When Jiang Hui said this, Chen Chenxing's eyes widened and he said, "Are we going to fight the polar bear in A country? No... it's unlikely, right?"

The Chinese people are very clear about the strength of polar bears.

Even if one is very confident in his or her own country, few people dare to say that they can defeat a polar bear.

That's why Chen Chenxing felt so surprised.

"What are you thinking? We certainly can't confront the polar bear head-on. After all, it's something that even Americans don't dare to do. If we rush forward, won't we be laughed at by the whole world? We are not that stupid."

"However, it is entirely possible to sell some things to Afghanistan in the future, or even provide them with some training or something."

"In the beginning, it might be difficult to sell some sensitive items, but for some civilian products, I think there might be no problem."

After Jiang Hui's explanation, Chen Chenxing understood.

If it were just like this, it would seem normal.

Otherwise it would be really horrible.

"In the past, we sold things to other countries, and a lot of them were aid, especially things related to the military industry." "Our relationship with Afghanistan has never been good, so it's impossible for us to provide them with aid, right?"

Chen Chenxing asked another question.

However, Jiang Hui did not say much about this matter, only saying "someone will pay for it."

A few days before New Year's Day, it can be said that many military and industrial units were paying close attention to the situation in Afghanistan.

On the one hand, everyone was impressed that the polar bears occupied the main cities of Afghanistan so quickly, and their strength was indeed as strong as everyone imagined.

On the other hand, various military factories are also observing whether to continue to expand their production capacity in the next step to prepare for possible changes.

After all, in the past one or two years, the situation in many military factories has begun to change.

In order to adapt to economic development, some military factories have even begun to consider military-to-civilian conversion.

Many military factories would definitely not be willing to accept this situation.

But the arms are no match for the thighs, so I have to do it even if I don’t want to.

In fact, there are only a few that are really good.

For example, Jialing motorcycle is one of the best among them.

During this year's National Day, the motorcycles they produced were unveiled in the capital as a National Day gift, causing a huge sensation.

Jiang Hui felt that he could actually do a good job writing articles on this subject.

"Zheng Factory, I think our new BJ212 has a good opportunity to export and earn foreign exchange."

Seeing that the polar bear has almost taken control of Argentina, various international actions have increased.

Jiang Hui also began to prepare to do some preliminary exploratory work.

As an employee of the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant, it is obviously most appropriate and normal to use their own products as a pathfinder.

It doesn’t matter even if the new BJ212 is not the most suitable product, as long as it can be exported and earn foreign exchange.

"What export opportunities? I haven't heard of any country contacting us."

Zheng Haiming looked at Jiang Hui in surprise, wondering if he had received any other message.

After all, Jiang Hui was well-informed and he knew it.

"Although no country has contacted us, and even our products are in short supply in the domestic market, we can actively find opportunities to export and earn foreign exchange. If a car can be sold for tens of thousands of dollars, it is definitely a worthwhile business, right?"

The current selling price of BJ212 is 3.1 yuan for the cheapest one, and this is the price of the bare car.

Calculated at the official exchange rate, that would be more than $10,000 per car.

And this is only the price for domestic planned sales. The price outside the plan will be at least 10,000 yuan more expensive, or even 20,000 or 30,000 yuan.

As a result, the unplanned price reached 20,000 to 30,000 US dollars per vehicle.

By then, it would be reasonable for the Capital Manufacturing Plant to sell the vehicles at a price of US$3 per vehicle, or even higher, right?

However, Zheng Haiming certainly couldn't react to Jiang Hui's idea for a while.

"If we can really sell a car for tens of thousands of dollars, there will be no problem even if we export all the new BJ212s we produce."

"And we can also arrange workers to produce day and night to contribute to the creation of foreign exchange."

“But who should we sell it to?”

China is now in great shortage of foreign exchange.

Especially after the economic reform, the various equipment that needed to be imported were innumerable and simply could not be purchased.

That little bit of foreign exchange is simply not enough.

If a unit like the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant, which has never been able to earn foreign exchange in the past, could become a major foreign exchange earner, that would be a huge achievement.

The entire Ministry of First Machine Industry was a major consumer of foreign exchange, and there were only a few manufacturers that could create foreign exchange.

It would be normal to cause a sensation in the Ministry of Machine Building and the entire Chinese industrial sector at that time.

"Zheng Factory, sell it to Aguo."

After Jiang Hui said this, Zheng Haiming became even more confused.

Sell ​​the new BJ212 to Aguo?

What is this operation?
The country is almost non-existent, why are you still selling cars to them?
"Even if we want to sell it, we can't."

"Even if Aguo wants to buy a car, he will definitely buy Polar Bear's. He won't buy ours, right?"

Zheng Haiming has been watching the news every day these days and knows that the polar bear has now taken control of Aguo.

Under such circumstances, he felt it was impossible to sell BJ212 to Afghanistan.

"Official procurement will definitely not buy our products, but there will definitely be various resistance forces in Afghanistan, and these people will also need weapons and transportation."

"Our BJ212 is an off-road vehicle and is very suitable for driving on complex road conditions."

"It can definitely meet some of their needs. At least at the beginning, they will think this car is a good thing."

In fact, Jiang Hui knew very well that motorcycles were more suitable for the situation in Afghanistan, but who made the Capital Automobile Factory not produce motorcycles?
Besides, although motorcycles are more suitable, other people don’t know it yet and still look down on motorcycles.

The foreign exchange earning capacity of motorcycles is also not as good as that of cars.

So the car must be sold first.

As for the question of whether it is suitable or not, Jiang Hui doesn't care about it.

Anyway, such a big battlefield would not need a few cars.

"What you said is an idea."

Zheng Hai knew that Jiang Hui had a very flexible way of thinking, and what he said was definitely not something he had thought about casually.

But it seems that it is not so easy to achieve the goal of this matter.

"But Aguo surely doesn't have the money to buy our car, right?"

“We can’t help them for free, even if they are going to hunt polar bears.”

Zheng Haiming is very clear about the current situation in China.

We will not easily provide free aid again.

Especially now that the theme of focusing on economic development has been established, the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant itself cannot accept giving cars to Afghanistan for free.

They would rather choose to sell domestically at unplanned prices.

"That's right, Aguo really doesn't have the money to buy our car."

“But America does!”

After Jiang Hui said this, Zheng Haiming was even more confused.

Capital Automobile Manufacturing sells the new BJ212 to Afghanistan. Can this matter be related to America?
Still want America to pay for Afghanistan?

It seems that no matter how I think about it, it’s not that reliable!

As if sensing the doubts in Zheng Haiming's heart, Jiang Hui prepared to explain it to him in detail.

Otherwise, without Zheng Haiming's full support, there would definitely be many obstacles in advancing this matter, which is something Jiang Hui does not want to see.
