Chapter 587
500,000 trainees!
Everyone knows what Nanyang’s so-called “skill trainees” are.
That’s cheap labor!
When the basic salary of workers in Nanyang is generally more than 20 yuan, and the bonus level income is as high as more than 32 yuan. The salary of "skilled trainees" is only about 5 yuan. Even including piece wages and bonuses, it is only 8 to 10 yuan. Not only that, they don’t have pension insurance or medical insurance.
However, in South Korea, even a graduate of Seoul University only earns 50 or 60 won a month. The official nominal exchange rate is almost 4 won, but in fact the market exchange rate is only worth 3 US dollars at most.
Even so, it may not be possible to exchange it. After all, South Korea's foreign exchange is very limited.
So, for the vast majority of Koreans, being able to work in Nanyang is definitely a very glorious job!
The same is true for Korea, and the same is true for Japan. The reason why they rushed to Nanyang to be graduate students was because they could earn more money here. This is also the reason why they married locals one after another after coming here.
It’s all because of income!
"Your Excellency, do you think they will change the law?"
Faced with Yu Xiangdong's question, Li Yian shook his head and said.
“It doesn’t matter whether the law is revised or not.”
Li Yian, who was flipping through the report, said while reading the report,
“The important thing is that often in In South Korea, learning Chinese and Chinese characters will become fashionable. Now it is women who study. In a few years, the gender ratio will be more balanced. Farms can also recruit male workers, that is, "skilled trainees." It is cheap labor, the more the better. But the prerequisite for coming to Nanyang to be a "trainee" is that you must be able to speak Chinese, be able to have simple conversations, and be able to write Chinese characters. ”
The "skills trainee" system is something Li Yi'an learned from the experience of Little Japan in another era. It is said that it is to export production skills and management skills to backward countries, but in fact, it is a way to solve the problem of population aging and labor shortage. Workarounds. It's about cheap labor.
Unlike the United States, which introduced Mexican labor and resulted in the introduction of tens of millions of illegal immigrants, Japan's "skilled trainees" not only allowed them to obtain cheap labor, but also ensured that the country would not be occupied by illegal immigrants. Of course, this It is also directly related to the fact that Japan is not a country of nationality.
Good experience should be learned. At this point, Li Yi'an's mind can definitely be said to be open to all rivers.
“Now Nanyang is recruiting “skilled trainees” in Japan, South Korea and Vietnam, not just for cheap labor, the core issue is to solve the gender balance.”
mentioned “Gender "Compared", Li Yi'an said proudly.
"In the most understandable terms, it is to solve the bachelor problem in Nanyang. In the past four years, Nanyang has introduced 2.56 million trainees from Japan, of which more than 2.2 million have married Nanyang people and stayed in Nanyang. As for those who are not married, almost all of them are on the road to getting married, and only less than 2% return to the country. Of course, the cost is not without it, which is the remittances sent out every year. Although this leads to a large amount of foreign exchange outflow, it solves the problem of gender in Nanyang. Comparing with the population problem, in general, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.”
What does it mean for Japan that nearly three million Japanese women have married in Nanyang?
It means a reduction of 10 million people!
What about Nanyang? This is equivalent to an increase of 15 million people. After all, it is different from Japan, which implements family planning. Nanyang's idea is to have more children, and a family should have at least five children.
“As for overseas remittances, only by remitting money will more Japanese and Koreans be eager to come to Nanyang to make money and be willing to stay here. This...can be considered a price! Of course, It is precisely because of this that they are willing to take the initiative to learn Chinese and write Chinese characters. ”
Just like in another world, in the 1980s and 1990s, there were Japanese language training classes everywhere in Shanghai and other places. At that time, people were willing to pay training fees several times higher than a month's salary to learn Japanese.
Why?
Isn’t it just to go to Japan to make money? High investment means high returns.
The principle is the same. As long as they can earn money by coming to Nanyang, they will definitely take the initiative to learn Chinese and learn to write Chinese characters.
“Sir, this is human nature!”
In response to Yu Xiangdong's emotion, Li Yian nodded without comment, and then continued to lean in front of the case. Now, the bait has been thrown to the Koreans. It doesn't matter whether they take it or not, the important thing is - South Korea Ordinary people cannot resist this temptation.
Compared with Tangshan people learning Japanese in 1890 and later learning Korean, it is still very easy for Japan and South Korea to learn Chinese characters, especially in South Korea, where many people can read and write even in the countryside. There are old scholars who can write Chinese characters, and there are even old candidates who have participated in the imperial examination.
The wave of migrant workers coming to Nanyang will definitely help improve their status and allow them to profit from it. Gradually, after Chinese teaching formed a huge interest group, and there was a broad consensus among the people, even if someone wanted to overthrow it, the overall situation would be difficult to change!
Smida, the great nation of the universe... Smida who speaks and writes Chinese characters?
Thinking of this, Li Yian couldn't help but laugh. Will they then say that Chinese characters are their invention? For a moment, Li Yian's mood was a little... complicated!
This kind of thing is not impossible.
But those sticks shouldn’t be so shameless.
……
USD 200 million in remittances!
It seemed like a light number, but it turned Yin Tongshan and others upside down and kept them awake all night.
After returning to the hotel from the official residence, the group of them sat in the living room of the suite, either pacing back and forth, or sitting and drinking tea absentmindedly.
Even Nanyang Fanta, which is about the same size as American Coca-Cola, is not as sweet as usual when they drink it.
These US$200 million are remittances received by Japan!
“$200 million!”
Once again, when Yin Tongshan said this number, his eyes were shining.
“This is 200 million U.S. dollars!”
When mentioning this number, Park Zhengzhi couldn’t help but rub his hands. Even Kim Jongduk’s eyes were shining and he couldn’t help himself. .
For a poor and impoverished country, what does the remittance of US$200 million mean?
Means that the government can obtain large amounts of foreign exchange through!
"Oh, we must open an official bank as soon as possible and open a branch here!"
"Yes, 500,000 trainees can remit at least 40 million U.S. dollars in remittances a year! That's 40 million Dollars!”
Looking at Park Zhengzhi’s excited look, Kim Jongde was equally excited, but still said with concern.
“Although overseas remittances are very good, after the 500,000 trainees come to Nanyang, how many of them will return to South Korea?”
Kim Jongde’s tone was slightly worried,< br>
"Less than 2% of the more than 2 million trainees in Japan have gone back. The rest have stayed in Nanyang and become the wives of Nanyang people and have children for them. Many Japanese workers can't find wives at all. , This will definitely affect the Japanese population over time."
As soon as Kim Jong-deok finished speaking, Park Jung-chi said next to him.
“Oh, Mr. Jin, you are worrying too much. For Japan and South Korea, the biggest problem is too much population. Like Japan, we only have enough rice to eat. With such a population, If we can export part of the population, it will also reduce our pressure!”
Whether it is Japan or South Korea in this era, they very clearly believe that excessive population is their burden. It is even the root cause of poverty.
Well...it will be too late to regret it in the future. Then he said again.
"Besides, the fact that poor people cannot afford to get married only means that they don't work hard enough! Just work harder, fight for more money, and pay more gifts. Now, for South Korea, the most important thing is remittances!"
For these superior people, they don’t care at all whether the poor can get a wife. In their view, the poor, even if they die naturally, are in line with the rules of "social operation".
Yin Chushan, the Minister of Commerce and Industry, ignored them and just kept mumbling a number.
“Twenty million US dollars in remittances!”
This figure does not contain any water. In fact, it is even more. After all, Japan also announces these to the outside world. Figures - Overseas remittance income far exceeds its foreign trade income.
But in any case, Yin Tongshan could not have imagined that a considerable part of these remittances did not come from female workers. After all, after getting married, they could only provide some help to their Japanese parents and families who already had families. .
