Chapter 777 The Leek Field in Nanyang (Third update, please subscribe)
There is a secret recipe to poverty!
There is no secret recipe for getting rich, but there is definitely a secret recipe for staying poor forever.
But what’s the secret to Mexico’s consistent poverty?
When the idea came to his mind and he wanted to study in depth, Li Yian's eyes fell on the garden of the official residence. The official residence was formerly the Commissioner's Park. The garden followed the style of all English gardens - a large lawn. Like a green carpet. Although lawns grow very quickly in tropical areas, the gardeners of official residences always keep the lawns clean.
In the distance, a lawnmower moved slowly on the lawn. Under the sharp blade of the lawnmower, the lawn was carefully trimmed and neatly trimmed.
Looking at the lawn that has become the same length and tall under the careful care of the lawn mower, what is Li Yian thinking at this time?
Of course it’s leeks!
“Chives...”
Looking from the window, the lawn looks like a field of chives, with deep and full green. The sun is shining, and every grass tip is shining with crystal luster, as attractive as emerald.
Suddenly, Li Yian said excitedly as if he had figured something out.
"I understand, so it's like this..."
Li Yian took a puff of his cigar with some excitement.
“Why hasn’t Mexico developed? It’s not just its own shortcomings, but also leeks. For the United States, Mexico is a big leek field. The United States just needs to keep harvesting. ”
What are Americans harvesting in Mexico?
It’s not just about cheap labor. Relying on the North American Free Trade Agreement, American companies invest in research in Mexico and take advantage of its cheap labor.
The core point is that the United States has never stopped harvesting Mexico. For Mexicans, what is their biggest dream?
Just go to the United States.
Whether it is an ordinary person or a highly educated person.
The large number of legal workers and illegal immigrants in the former have brought cheap labor to the United States. The most painful and tiring work on farms and ranches in places such as California and Texas is done by Mexicans.
As for the latter?
Every year, tens of thousands of highly educated Mexicans enter the United States on work visas and eventually settle in the United States.
For Mexicans, where is paradise?
Of course it is the United States. Going to the United States is a reflection of one's ability.
The result is a phenomenon: the smartest Mexicans are in the United States, and the most hard-working Mexicans are also in the United States.
If Mexico were asked to write an article "I Have a Dream", then their dream would definitely be to enter the United States and become an American! In fact, whether now or in the next seventy years or so, becoming an American and going to the United States has always been the biggest dream of Mexicans. Even the drug lords in Juarez also have a dream of going to the United States. , not only sell goods to the United States, they also want to live in the United States. Of course, some people actually get what they want - go to prison in the United States. However, the families and lovers of drug lords often choose to live in the United States.
“So, the best Mexicans are all in the United States, and the smartest and most hard-working Mexicans have gone to contribute to the construction of the United States. Who will develop Mexico?”
Who was the last person left in Mexico?
It won’t be the best anyway.
While talking to himself, Li Yian closed his eyes and thought.
Now the smartest Japanese are in Nanyang. In the past six years, in order to solve the shortage of engineering and technical personnel, Nanyang has recruited a large number of scientists, engineers, doctors and technicians from Japan through work visas and other methods. There are skilled workers.
A considerable number of them have become Nanyang people through naturalization, including Hideki Yukawa, who won the Nobel Prize in 1949. He was the first Nobel Prize winner in Nanyang. , even though he is of Japanese descent. But he is indeed from Nanyang.
Just half a month ago, the real inventor of streptomycin, Albert Schatz, who was also from Nanyang, won the Nobel Prize.
Although Nanyang was only founded six years ago, it has two Nobel Prizes. Although they are all foreign immigrants, what does that mean?
These talents introduced from overseas will indeed be of great help to the technological and economic development of Nanyang.
"Being able to harvest talents around the world is the most important thing!"
Based on the reality of Nanyang, Li Yian said softly.
“What if we turn Japan into the leek field of Nanyang?” Taking a puff of his cigar, Li Yian smiled towards the north with gentle eyes, and the cracked arc at the corner of his mouth was an unconscious hook. When it came to the sneer when facing the enemy, he said:
"In order to give Japan a bright future, Nanyang must increase the introduction of Japanese talents in the future!"
How to increase the intensity of introduction?
Just hold a job fair during their college graduation season. Through recruitment, we can continuously harvest talents from Japan in all aspects. This outflow of intellectual resources will lead to the Japanese technology industry. Talents in other fields are scarce, and the lack of talents will naturally limit Japan's industrial upgrading.
Just like Mexico, no matter how hard the Mexicans work, as long as their intellectual resources are continuously harvested like a leek field, they will always be filled with cheap American labor without any industrial upgrading. possible.
Of course, in another world, the University of Tokyo was also harvested a lot by the United States, but it couldn't stand the large population of the University of Tokyo. Even when the college entrance examination was just resumed, the number of admissions was 200 It exceeded tens of thousands, and later it exceeded tens of millions. In this case, even if tens of thousands were harvested, it would not have any impact.
But for a country with a population of only tens of millions, if 10,000 to 20,000 intellectual talents are harvested every year, the result will be a disaster. At least for that country, it will mean that top talents are swept away. null.
There is no talent or insufficient talent.
What do you rely on to develop?
Rely on those foundries invested by foreign capital?
"...So, the key is to give the Japanese a hope - a hope of coming to heaven!"
At this time, the smile on Li Yian's face became brighter and brighter. Where is heaven?
Of course it’s Nanyang.
"Do you mean to let everyone in Japan dream of going to Nanyang?"
Yu Xiangdong said.
"Yes, it's not just a dream, we also want the Japanese to have a feeling - the moon in Nanyang is rounder than Japan, no..."
Li Yian thought for a while and said.
"It should be said that it allowed them to form the idea that the moon in Nanyang is round, and even have the idea that "the air in Nanyang is sweet", so that all Japanese people, from the novel, have a view that going to Nanyang is to get ahead. Let Japanese men be proud to work in Nanyang, and let their women be proud to marry in Nanyang."
"Your Excellency, that's almost it now,"
Yu Xiangdong said:< br>
“Nowadays, many Japanese are proud to work in Nanyang. After all, the income in Japan is very low, and it is difficult to find a good job.”
“No, Not yet,”
Li Yian said somewhat dogmatically.
“Today’s Japanese people are forced to come to Nanyang because of their livelihood. They go to Nanyang to work in order to live. In the future, we will let their views turn into their ideals in life. Their ideals in life are Coming to Nanyang, only in this way can we continuously harvest talents from Japan, and this..."
A proud smile appeared on Li Yian's face.
“And this is the most important step to prevent Japan’s rise. Through long-term harvesting of talents, it will not have the intellectual resources to carry out industrial upgrading and scientific research. Through harvesting of labor, Japan’s industries will be able to serve Nanyang. In this way, Japan will end up being nothing more than a large foundry.”
Just like Mexico in the other world, it seemed to be developing rapidly in the 1960s and was still developing in the 1980s. It is developing rapidly. In the 21st century, it is still developing rapidly, but... it seems that it will always be on the road of development, but it will never become a developed country.
No matter how the times change, the role played by Mexico is just a provider of cheap labor, and it is nothing more than an American leek garden.
Looking back, Li Yian looked at Yu Xiangdong again, the corners of his mouth cracked, and said with a smile:
"Taking advantage of this opportunity, all we need is to turn Japan into our leek field."
Then, Li Yian added:
"The leek field, yes, we harvest intelligence, labor force, and even fertility and the leek field... In a word, crucify Japan, completely The possibility of interrupting his rise!”
