Chapter 1518 Poor countries have no right to complain (third update, please subscribe)
“We need your help!”
Almost every day, people from all over the world come to When they arrived in Chang'an, although they came from different countries, their goal was the same - to seek the "panacea" for the country's prosperity.
“They used their own miracles to prove to the world a possibility!”
For countries around the world, nothing is more shocking than the “Equatorial Miracle”. After all, in In history, no place has ever achieved breakthroughs in various fields such as economy and science in such a short period of time.
From Asia to Europe, from Europe to South America, from South America to Africa... almost all developing countries hope to get some inspiration and help from Chang'an.
Among these countries, the most focused and serious one must be South Korea. Unlike other countries, South Korea did not choose any "national prosperity plan", but chose to follow behind. study.
The most fundamental reason why South Korea did not choose the "National Wealth and Power Plan" is - no money!
Because the national prosperity plan requires the purchase of a large amount of industrial equipment. For the impoverished South Korea, they probably don’t even have the money to buy industrial machinery.
For this reason, as the Prime Minister, Ding Yiquan is extremely eager for the "National Wealth and Strength Plan". After all, both Iraq and Iran have achieved industrial progress in the entire country through the National Wealth and Strength Plan. .
Faced with the Prime Minister’s envy, Kim Yong-taek said bluntly:
“There has never been any national prosperity and strength program in the world. The national prosperity and strength program provided to Iran, Iraq and other countries is actually about industrial equipment. Output only.
Just because it is miniaturized. , so the cost is lower, the speed is faster, and the effect is more obvious.
But for the country, what we need now is not such industrialization. What we need is to develop our economy step by step. "
Kim Yongzhe said to the Prime Minister beside him in a sympathetic tone.
"South Korea is different from those countries. Whether it is Iran or Iraq, they can earn a lot of foreign exchange by exporting oil. But what about South Korea?
We have nothing! Neither resources nor funds . From this point of view, we are very similar to sea. We don’t have enough local resources, but we have a relatively abundant labor force, so we should be like them. Develop foreign trade and build a country based on trade.
Through the processing of supplied materials, as the OEM of Sea Enterprises, we will develop the foreign trade economy. After the factory develops and grows, we can create our own products. My own factory.
The last step is like them..."
Pointing to the city outside the car window, Jin Yongzhe said:
"Achieve national prosperity through industrial upgrading. Just like them, everyone can have enough to eat, and everyone can live a good life."
Just like them!
When he said these words, Jin Yongzhe's tone was full of a certain desire, which had been created since he first came here many years ago.
He hopes that one day Koreans can live a good life like the people here and have full stomachs like them instead of going hungry every day.
“A nation that is hungry has no right to pursue anything else.”
Looking at the director of the National Reconstruction Administration appointed by the president next to him, Ding Yiquan thought of the words he said at the meeting for the first time.
"Yongzhe, do you think we can do it?"
Ding Yiquan did not call him his position, but asked him in a more intimate tone.
“We are doing it bit by bit, maybe our speed is much slower, but I believe that one day we will definitely be able to do it.”
“Yes, we will definitely be able to do it. to.”
Ding Yiquan nodded vigorously, and then said:
"Yongze, you know the president and I, we are both soldiers, our goal is very simple - to get South Korea out of poverty, just to Let Koreans live a good life
That’s why we launched this reform. As soldiers, we implement the plan like soldiers. Since we have made a plan, then Then we must go all out to implement it
And you, Yongzhe, are our staff to help the president help us achieve this goal..."
While saying this. At that time, Ding Yiquan's tone was full of recognition of Kim Yong-cheol. In fact, there are many economic experts like Kim Yong-cheol in South Korea, including those who studied abroad like him, and some who returned from studying in the United States.
They are now surrounding the Restoration Government, where they are working hard to change the future of Korea little by little.
In the next few days, Jung Il-kwon, as the Prime Minister of South Korea, visited many companies in the industrial zone near Chang'an. Although he visited many large companies, more often than not, he did what Kim Yongzhe asked - to visit small companies.
“For those small businesses, they are more concerned about labor costs, and labor costs are South Korea’s biggest advantage.”
On the way to a shoe factory, Kim Yongzhe said to the man next to him the Prime Minister said.
“So after entering the factory, Prime Minister, you must emphasize this point to Manager Liu of the factory, and that all our workers have attended elementary school.”
Listening to his reminder, Ding Yiquan nodded repeatedly and said:
"I know, and I have to tell them all the advantages the country has."
All shoe factories are the same. The factory workshop was filled with a pungent smell of rubber and glue.
Because of this, the shoe and hat manufacturing industry is gradually relocating from the sea to other countries. Such industrial transfer takes time. After all, not every company is willing to move overseas.
Liu Nengxian is such a person. When receiving these guests from South Korea, he said straightforwardly.
"Oh, to be honest with you, I know that moving the factory overseas will bring huge profits, but..."
Pointing to the workshop, Liu Nengxian said.
“I have been running this factory for more than ten years. Back then, I opened a shoe factory when I was in mainland China. I came here with my bare hands and started this factory. This year, I started it from scratch. This factory has not been as profitable as it used to be in recent years. < br>
However, if you move out, you will have to start from scratch. ”
In fact, it is not that Liu Nengxian has not considered setting up factories overseas. After all, the profits of setting up factories overseas are much higher than those at home. The shoe factory is not a high-tech industry. "This is not about starting over, but about changing a place for better development."
Ding Yiquan explained:
“Korean workers only need a salary of less than 10 US dollars per month, but does it still include the salary for a few more hours of overtime at night?
< br>Director Liu, please don’t get me wrong. There is no overtime pay in Korea.
This is overtime beyond eight hours. There is no such concept in Korea.
Koreans are hard-working people. As long as they can get a salary of ten dollars a month, they will feel very happy even if they work fifteen or six hours a day. ”
Ding Yiquan is not standing there talking without back pain, nor is he not treating Koreans as human beings.
But because he knows very well. Compared with exhaustion and hunger, it is more unbearable. .
A country that is hungry has no right to pursue other things. This does not just mean that this country has no right to sacrifice everything to pursue military strength.
It also means that, A hungry country has no right to pursue so-called labor rights.
For people who are hungry, they never care about working overtime, nor about living like cattle and horses. At least the cattle and horses can always have enough to eat.
That’s why Ding Yiquan specifically emphasized this point.

“I understand.”
Liu Nengxian nodded first and said.
"To tell you the truth, my father took me to escape from famine in the past. When I arrived in Shanghai, I suffered from hunger when I was a child. I know what it feels like to be hungry.
What is happiness? Happiness is having enough food. You can only pay attention to other things when you are full."
"Oh, Mr. Liu, you are absolutely right."
Ding Yiquan nodded in agreement. .
"That's why I came here. I hope Mr. Liu can consider investing in us and moving your factory to South Korea..."
I'm afraid that as the prime minister of a country, Ding Yiquan's profile is very low in this factory with only a few hundred people.
He said in a sincere tone:
"Please give the Koreans a chance to have a full meal."
After saying this, Ding Yiquan again Bow to the factory director in front of me once.
Such a humble attitude is simply beyond people’s imagination. Faced with such a request, Liu Nengxian quickly said:
"Oh, Mr. Prime Minister, I am just a small factory, how can I deserve this from you?"
"Director Liu, for South Korea, any investment from overseas is extremely precious, regardless of scale. Big or small, please believe that we will take it seriously and will never cause you any trouble."
I have to say that although Ding Yiquan, the Prime Minister, is a soldier, he is very good at dealing with businessmen. of.
He knows what businessmen want. What they want is not just product profits and the like, but also some kind of guarantee, a safety guarantee.
"Director Liu, if you go to South Korea, you will be the friend I invited. You believe that I will not let my friends down."
All right!
Who can refuse such an invitation from the Prime Minister of a country?
Not many people could refuse. Soon, Liu Nengxian reached a preliminary investment intention with the South Korean Prime Minister in front of him.
Although he only reached an investment intention with the other party, when leaving the factory, Ding Yiquan still said with some excitement:
“Oh, it’s a great harvest. But a large factory that can employ more than 1,000 people, well, when they arrive in South Korea, at least more than 1,000 Koreans can get jobs..."
Speaking of excitement, Ding Yiquan even hit the palm of his left hand with his right hand, and then said:
"You know, this is more than 1,000 jobs. When I think of so many Koreans, I have a job and can generate so much foreign exchange every year. Oh, I am very excited.”
When he was excited, Ding Yiquan looked out the car window and looked at the factory. Industrial Zone said in an envious tone.
"Yongzhe, do you think our Incheon will be like here one day... filled with factories?"
When asking this question, There was only longing in Ding Yiquan's tone, but Jin Yongzhe didn't answer his question, he just looked out the car window silently, and then said:
"In the future, I think our future will definitely get better, but it requires more efforts from us."
"Oh, this guy! He doesn't know how to survive in officialdom at all. "
Ding Yiquan laughed and said:
"This You should tell me at this time that our future will definitely be the same here. After all, we are learning behind them step by step.
In the future, we will definitely be as prosperous and powerful as them, just look. Well, I believe that is our destiny.”
