When he officially reported to Zhu Youdong on such a grand topic as "how to help all the people of Lan Fangguo successfully survive this financial crisis", Gu Kun needed to do his homework very carefully, and it was not something that could be dealt with by sitting and talking about it in a few words.

Thankfully, he did do a good job of preparation, as well as detailed data reports and assessments.

Gu Kun sat down and drank a cup of tea, and carefully analyzed it to Zhu Youdong:

"First of all, let me explain the issue of the adequacy of funds this time, I think that 500 million US dollars is enough to hedge the losses of the whole country in this financial crisis, and it will not exceed too much, and it will not give international speculators a mouthful.

You should know that last year, our per capita monthly income was RM580, and in the first 11 months of this year, according to the statistics that have been calculated, it must have exceeded RM600, and it should be around RM630, with an annual income growth rate of 9%......"

When Gu Kun reported these figures, Zhu Youdong basically nodded slightly after listening to a few, which shows that Gu Kun's data are all correct, and he, as a monarch, is also more concerned about state affairs, so he usually knows it.

In addition, I have to say that the statistics mentioned above by Gu Kun are all based on "the per capita value of the rest of the country except Gu Kun", whether it is per capita income or per capita GDP, which is also the new statistical caliber officially adopted by the Lanfang Islands since 1996.

Because this country is too small, if Gu Kun, a giant kun, is thrown into a small pool, and the per capita of the whole country will at least increase several times, it will be meaningless.

If Gu Kun is not included, a country's per capita GDP will be about two-thirds higher than its per capita income, and the proportion will be even higher in countries with high fiscal revenue/tax burden.

The per capita GDP was RM1,020 per month last year, RM1,150 in the first 11 months of this year, and RM13,08 a year, equivalent to US$3,700 before the depreciation.

This per capita value is slightly higher than the per capita value of Huaxia in 2009, but lower than that of Huaxia in 2010, so it is equivalent to the per capita economic index of Lanfang today, which is 12 years faster than Huaxia. This was at the upper middle level in Southeast Asia before the crisis.

Multiplied by Lanfang's population of 90,000, the country's total GDP after excluding Gu Kun and others is about 350 million US dollars.

However, the losses caused by the financial crisis are not as simple as a year's GDP, but also take into account the total capital assets of a country, including investments other than real estate, as well as deposits/securities.

The specific amount of this "total national asset wealth" cannot be counted by the Lan side at present, but according to international practice, it is generally believed that it is about five or six times the GDP. (That is, it is equivalent to the sum of the various savings of a household by default, which is equal to five or six times the annual income.) You can calculate whether the balance of your family's deposits, stocks, business, and net assets add up to almost six times your annual salary, if you have it, it is healthy, and the house does not count)

According to this calculation, the capital wealth of the whole society accumulated by the Lanfang country is about 2 billion US dollars. Now that the ringgit has depreciated by 25%, this part of the asset will evaporate at most US$500 million if it is not hedging, which is just offset with Gu Kun's income.

Zhu Youdong listened carefully to this account, and had a clearer understanding of Gu Kun's risk control.

Now comes the question of how the money is spent.

Gu Kun sincerely analyzed: "Actually, you also know that it is actually impossible for us to lose so much this time, because there are many people who have listened to my advice and converted the ringgit into RMB in advance, and the RMB has not depreciated, so they will not lose." Let's keep this share of the population for the future and use it later.

At present, what needs to be high-profile is mainly to those illiterate and stupid people who are die-hard, do not listen to my advice, and do not trust the renminbi. Since these people don't want to trust you, Your Highness, and don't want to trust me, I think it's better to solve their life difficulties and sweep them out completely. ”

Zhu Youdong didn't keep up with Gu Kun's brain at all: "Sweep it out? You mean rush to a foreign country? Are you whimsical." Not to mention that population is the source of taxation, and even if you want to send these people away, no foreign country will accept immigrants, so what good is it for you to do so? Just to unify the thinking of the country?"

Gu Kun motioned to the Grand Duke to be calm: "Don't worry, Your Highness, you have two questions, including why and how to sweep, I will answer you separately."

The first is why sweep. You should know that I have had an idea in the past two years, which is to build our Lanfang into a country with a very strong cultural tourism and international image. There is one card that is very important, and that is the concept of the world's number one tyrant country.

You should have read the material I gave you, and you know that in Dubai in the Middle East, there are also some members of the royal family who are working on this idea, but they just don't know how to do it yet, and they don't know how to burn the little money they have. The world's No. 1 tyrant country, there is only one place, and the second place is meaningless and will not be remembered by the whole world.

Our Lanfang foundation is too poor, to fight the total amount of wealth, not anyone's opponent, our only win is to fight per capita, at this time, those indicators that pull down the data, we have to find a way to optimize from the book statistics.

Moreover, we have a great advantage in doing so, that is, we cannot expect our own population to meet the labor needs of future national construction, so it is better to rely on foreign workers completely, and save the problem of calculating the national employment rate.

Like Xiangjiang and Lijiapo, why can't they be crazy and strict with their labor requirements? It is because they have to balance foreign and local laborers. Li Jiapo has 5 million people, 4 million domestic citizens, and more than 1 million foreign workers, which is already a very high proportion, but it is impossible for Li Jiapo to raise his own people like uncles, and then adopt a unified high standard and strict labor policy. ”

According to the experience of previous lives, after the discovery of the Lanfang oil field in the future, coupled with the slight rise of tourism, the country needs a population of about 300,000 to digest all this. The tens of thousands of people in our country are not enough in the first place, and in the future they are destined to have foreign workers as the main body of the country's economic activities, so it is better to completely abandon the growth of the population of our own nationality and pull up the per capita target and pretend to be forced.

The value created by the work of these tens of thousands of people is not as valuable as competing for the signboard of "the world's first per capita tyrant country" and winning the attention of people around the world in the Internet era. (Li Jiapo can't do this because the output of the hard work of 4 million elite people can exceed the value of the attention of people all over the world to the perception of "the world's first per capita tyrant country".

Why can't Brunei, which is next door, be known as a tyrant country and beat Dubai in seconds? Isn't it because the upper echelons of Brunei have no ambitions and dare not devote themselves to it?

Coupled with the heavy body of people dragging a population of 5 or 600,000 people, they are half-hung in any indicators, relying on the accumulation of 5 billion barrels of oil alone, and finally only brushing the embarrassing data of "annual per capita GDP of 30,000 to 40,000 US dollars".

In Asia, it is slightly lower than the 40,000 yuan in the capital, and even lower than the city in Xiangjiang and Huaxiaao counties (more than 70,000 US dollars), as well as a few rich countries in the Middle East (70,000 yuan per capita in Qatar).

Not to mention that Luxembourg in Europe is the size of Lanfang, with a population of 600,000 and a per capita population of $100,000. Monaco, with a population of only 40,000, is $280,000 per capita. (The Vatican can't be counted, because donations from believers around the world are not strictly accounted for in GDP.) If you count, the Vatican has only 1,000 people, and the average person should be in the millions of dollars. ）

In the Internet era, the winner kills all, and it makes no sense if you can't be the first in a certain field. Brunei's card was also broken, and only a few high-end and knowledgeable netizens in China in later generations knew that "the king of Brunei personally has 1,200 luxury cars" in the pretending to talk, but he would not think that Brunei is a tyrant country.

Gu Kun must not let Lan Fang repeat the mistakes of future Brunei.

How can he let Lan's per capita GDP explode Monaco in order to win the international positioning of Monaco as a rich country.

It's not the first time that Gu Kun has suddenly mentioned these insights to Zhu Youdong, and he has paved the way a few times in the past year, so Zhu Youdong is not too surprised.

After thinking about it again and again, Zhu Youdong hesitated and asked: "However, just relying on us to engage in finance, distribute welfare, and reduce the population, that will not allow us to go from $4,000 per capita to more than 100,000 per capita Monaco! It is impossible for the blue side to become the world's largest per capita GDP country!"

"Trust me, I'll help you get there, but that's a long story. Of course, Gu Kun is counting on the oil fields discovered under the Lanfang in the future.

However, he is ready to hold back the truth for at least a few more months before telling Zhu Youdong.

He has to wait for his daughter Zhu Youran to be 16 years old and the relationship between the two parties is further clarified.

Although, Zhu Youdong is destined to have no children and grandchildren in this life, it seems that Gu Kun is the best candidate for a son-in-law. But once faced with tens of billions of dollars in oil wealth, Gu Kun can't guarantee that Zhu Youdong will not have the evil idea of letting his daughter climb another high branch.

It's better not to test human nature.

Just taking advantage of this time and the country's difficulties, Gu Kun decided to secretly buy the land of the string of outlying islands on the eastern border of Lanfang, as well as the rights and interests of the attached offshore exclusive economic zone, in the name of helping the country tide over the difficulties.

By the way, I will officially promote the relationship with Zhu Youran.

When the time comes, I will tell Zhu Youdong again, "I recently talked with the XXX of Huaxia Offshore Oil, how it may have potential", and by the way, I will tie it to Huaxia's chariot, and I will not be afraid that Zhu Youdong will be tested.

Zhu Youdong didn't know what to do, so he could only ask for other doubts according to his priorities: "Then you say, if I agree to liberalize foreign immigration, how will you technically operate?"

Gu Kun: "Today, Malaya is also at a difficult juncture of a more critical and shrinking economy, and they very much need to boost domestic demand and consumption.

Moreover, Malaya's social security system is relatively diversified, not only the state-run pension system, but also many large and reputable commercial insurance, and some of them can even cover Lijiapo and Indonesia. These insurance companies will even allow people to start paying pension premiums a few years before they are close to retirement, but the premiums will be very high.

I plan to use the US$500 million to set up a national security fund, taking advantage of the current downturn in Malaysia, in the name of charity, to humanely insure those hard-nosed citizens who have not listened to my advice before, a Malay commercial pension, even if the premium subsidy per person is US$10,000 or 20,000, we also admit it.

In order to encourage the prosperity of the real estate market in Kuching, Sarawak has always allowed Lanarians to apply for naturalization if they buy a commercial house of more than 40 square meters in Kuching. These are all available.

I can provide a modest subsidy for the purchase of a house at a cost-effective cost. They were even given two years of unemployment insurance assistance to fend for themselves when they arrived in Malaysia, so that they could gain a foothold in Borneo. ”

Of course, it is not so simple to immigrate to Malaysia under normal circumstances, but the Malays' preferential treatment to the Lan side is more than that of other countries, because the Lan Fang is too small, and the population of the country is less than one-tenth of Kuching City.

This is the advantage of a small country, no matter where you go, foreigners are not afraid of flooding after liberalization.

Zhu Youdong groaned, and always felt that it was still a bit of a loss.

Gu Kun struck while the iron was hot and continued to state the benefits: "Your Highness, I did this not just to reduce the size of the population and increase the per capita index. You want to think about this question like this:

In the past, we have repeatedly persuaded the people to abandon the ringgit and switch to the renminbi. But there are still so many people who don't listen to persuasion, and you should be able to imagine what the main situation of these people who don't listen to persuasion, such as the old stubborn, the older generation can't make sense no matter how they reason. Lan Fang wants to transform, and these people are the biggest resistance and drag.

When we implement it, we can actually concretize some levers. For example, screening by illiteracy rate, age, and health status is not really just screening for 'not changing ringgit to yuan', it is just a cover for external propaganda.

The history of myself and the Germans has proved how important a factor is in order for a country to take off quickly, and the average quality of the population is a factor. Perhaps because there is still one illiterate person in a country, we have to prepare an extra set of illustrations for our street signs, and we cannot use all the words, which is a huge social cost.

We are not trying to eradicate illiteracy, but we are just trying to persuade them to emigrate to neighboring countries, and if you find it a bit unbearable to let a good neighbor like Malaya accept the burden, then I have a backup plan to get the most illiterate people to Indonesia, so that there is no psychological burden - the primary school completion rate in the Indonesian labor market is only 30%, and they don't care how many illiterate people there are. ”

Huaxia officials may think that this situation is difficult to imagine, isn't it just to eradicate illiteracy? Is it so difficult?

That's because China's compulsory education work is really good, and in a country with the same per capita GDP, China's public education efficiency is world-remarkable, so the Chinese people are used to it in Fuzhong and don't think so.

In fact, even in 2019, Indonesia's primary school graduation rate was only 40% of the working-age workforce.

Among the non-Chinese ethnic groups in Southeast Asian countries, the illiteracy rate has always been a difficult social problem to solve. The situation of the Lan side is better than that of Malay and much better than that of Indonesia, but it is only because the ethnic composition of the Lan side is advantageous, and the Han people have loved to read since ancient times.

However, in 1997, illiteracy caused by historical arrears has always been a big problem.

Moreover, anyone who has done literacy work knows that even if you invest again, you will not be able to raise it after 90%, because you can only solve the problem of not producing new illiteracy among young people, and the elderly and those who have lost the ability to learn can only wait for the other party to die of old age. This is not a question of whether Zhu Youdong has worked hard or not over the years.

Gu Kun can now take the opportunity to solve this ultimate incurable disease: give a little subsidy to the pure illiterate and let them become Indonesians.

Of course, he is still very benevolent and methodical, and never applies to administrative one-size-fits-all, at best it is regulated by economic means.

If he really has the iron heart to follow him, and after this test of temptation, then whether he is illiterate or sick, he will let the other party live as a citizen of Lanfang, which is called Brother Xin Kun to become rich and noble. And if Sanguan is like Zhu Jingye, even if he goes to college, as long as he can't withstand the temptation of subsidies, Gu Kun has a way to let them go.

After this subsidy, what he needed was a Lan Fang who had absolute trust in him and swore allegiance to Gu Kun.
