Chapter 620: Drawing fire under the cauldron (second update, please subscribe)

Who doesn’t like bargains?

After Japan’s one-dollar shirts appeared in the U.S. market, Americans did not buy them in pieces, but in dozens.

Some people who travel frequently even buy a dozen shirts, change one shirt a day, throw them away after wearing them, and don't even need to wash them. Why so much waste?

It’s just because it’s cheap—one day’s salary is enough to buy a dozen shirts. Who feels bad.

In the face of shirts priced at one dollar a piece, the textile industry of the United States started a trade war and tried to protect its own interests by relying on trade protection. But in the end, I could only kneel down.

In another time and space, Japan's cheap goods only had an impact on the American textile industry. But now textile products are also Nanyang's flagship products. If Japanese bargains come, they will also have an impact on Nanyang's textile industry!

“Little Japan...it’s really not easy to worry about!”

When thinking about the possible impact of Little Japan’s “cheap shock wave”, Li Yian had a headache, because the impact It’s not just the textile industry, it will also have an impact on “trainees” in Nanyang.

Nowadays, the textile industry is the industry that attracts the largest number of "trainees". "trainees" are not only cheap labor for Nanyang, but also the fertility of Nanyang!

The rise of manufacturing in Japan means that many Japanese women can find jobs in Japan. Will they still come to Nanyang all the way?

This is the unknown.

And can Nanyang withstand the shock wave of cheap Japanese products?

The answer is no.

After all, the American textile industry kneels to Japan and places its trust in Tangshan. It was from Japan's cheap textile products that the American industry began its industrial transfer. Then there is the long road to deindustrialization - the textile industry in the 1950s, the steel industry in the 1960s, the home appliance industry in the 1970s, and microelectronics in the 1980s...

Looking at the deindustrialization path of the American industry, it is actually an industrial transformation path from low-end to high-end.

“Industry transfer!”

Suddenly, Li Yian’s eyes lit up and he said to himself.

“Industrial transfer, Nanyang can also implement industrial transfer!”

Thinking of this, Li Yian picked up a cigar, nodded, took a sip, and then paced back and forth, familiar with Everyone knows that this is his most accustomed action when thinking about problems.

The key factor in Japan's rise is trade!

Therefore, as long as the door to foreign trade restrictions is not completely opened, the Japanese economy will have no way out, and it will be impossible to talk about real stability, revival, independence and development.

There are two ways to prevent Japan from opening up its foreign trade restrictions. The first way is to prevent Japan from joining the "General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade" - under the control of the United States, through the "San Francisco Peace Treaty" with Japan After concluding a separate peace, Japan went all out to join the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, thereby opening the door to foreign trade.

“So, the first step is to block the door for them to join the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade.”

Joining the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade is a step forward for Japan. The most critical step on the road to an export-oriented economy, therefore, we must find ways to prevent Japan from joining it, or at least delay Japan's joining.

A day's delay is a day, a ten-year delay is a ten-year delay. All in all, the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade is too important. As long as Japan does not join, it will be impossible for them to truly open up the world market.

"First think of a way to close the door, and then think of a way to draw out the firepower."

Nodding slightly, Li Yian took another puff of cigarette and continued to think.

"Well, the second step is to transfer the industry. If someone is destined to eat the "cheap goods", then instead of letting the Japanese eat it, it is better to let Nanyang eat it. Although "cheap goods" "It goes against Nanyang's basic trade strategy, but... we can use cheap labor from other countries!"

For example, at this stage, Nanyang's low-end textile industry can be transferred out, such as Malaya. A very good area for industrial relocation. Although the population of Malaya is far less than that of Japan, and there is still nearly half of the Peace Sect population, there are more overseas Chinese in the area, and the transfer of industries to the local area will help enhance the influence of overseas Chinese. And because of its population size, even if it dumps goods at full power against the United States, the impact on the United States, including the high-end textile industry in Nanyang, will be within control.

Malaya's population and population quality are not as good as Japan's, but the advantage is that Malaya is a British colony. At this stage, the imperial preferential system can also be used to help Malaya develop. On the other hand, although the power of Malaya's cheap shock wave is not as powerful as Japan's, it can bring a "bargain" shock to the United States, thereby ensuring that when Japan attempts to join the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, it will pull American textiles. The industry worked together to prevent Japan from joining. In fact, the reason why Japan is able to undertake a large number of industrial transfers from the United States is because they have the technical foundation for industrialization, especially in terms of talent. Although he took away Japan's industrial facilities, the talents he had cultivated were not completely lost, and these talents were the basis for Japan's reconstruction after the war.

The special economic needs of the Peninsula War also accelerated Japan's post-war economic recovery, but the key core is still "foreign trade". As long as this door is closed, or as long as it is dragged on In ten or twenty years, the accumulation of talents and technology that Japan cultivated before the war will be completely lost in the process. Even if they rejoin the "General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade" by then, it will be difficult to return.

After all, decades of economic recession will make the knowledge of technical talents fall far behind the times, and long-term unemployment will also make their professional abilities disappear. In the end, the best among them will Great talents can be attracted to Nanyang, and ordinary talents will slowly become mediocre.

In the end, the capital of Japan's rise will be completely exhausted - talent.

By then, even if the United States is willing to support it, it will take time, and it is even possible to start over. At most, it will be similar to Nanban, which did not start to rise until the 1980s and 1990s.

"Industrial transfer is the first step!"

Walking to the desk and looking at the report on the table, the corners of Li Yian's mouth curled up unconsciously.

In fact, Nanyang also needs industrial relocation. After all, many machinery and equipment in Nanyang's textile industry were demolished from Japan. Those mechanical equipment were at the technical level of the 1930s and were technically behind the times.

They will definitely be eliminated in the future. Instead of waiting for elimination in the future, it is better to eliminate the backward production capacity to Malaya and other places while they are not completely behind. On the one hand, ensure the profits of cheap goods Rotten in his own pot. On the other hand, it can also achieve technological upgrading of Nanyang's textile industry, thereby ensuring corporate profits.

"Now, before the Yankees support Japan, let the American textile industry feel the shock of what a "cheap product" is!"

Only by letting the Yankees feel the "cheap shock wave" first, Only then is it possible for them to stand on their side and jointly prevent Japan from opening restrictions on foreign trade. As long as Japan does not join the "General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade", Japan's so-called post-war economic revival will not become a reality, or even anything. Things like stability are empty talk.

Just at this moment, along with a burst of fragrance, Anna came over.

"Dear, are you still busy? I prepared some fruit. You seem a little tired. Do you want to take a rest?"

Holding the cut fruit plate, Anna Come out of the kitchen.

I have to say that a woman looks particularly beautiful after being fully moisturized. This woman recovers very quickly!

While feeling emotional, Li Yian closed the document quietly and said.

"Don't tell me, I'm really tired. There are so many things to deal with. I originally thought that if I came out, I wouldn't have to work so hard, but things still got here. It's rare to have half a day free!"

“You can take more rest!”

Anna smiled lightly. Since she changed from a girl to a woman, her changes are visible to the naked eye. Not only does her whole face look radiant, but her face is also The figure is also plumper.

"It's not impossible!"

Li Yian said,

"But there are some things that I still can't let go of, but still, now that the problem has been solved, I can relax a little bit, but..."

Looking at the pouring rain outside the window, Li Yian said uncertainly,

"Who knows what will happen tomorrow? I hope there will be good weather tomorrow. By then, we can continue. Let’s go to one stop.”
