There is indeed no very close relationship between the Asian carp and the Boeing plane, and Li Wenxiu's analogy is actually a bit far-fetched, after all, economics, as a world science, contains too many things, far from being able to be summarized by a simple product metaphor.

But what is understandable is that as a topic-breaking word played on the spot, Li Wenxiu's metaphor is really appropriate.

At least from the applause at the scene, you can hear that this metaphor is very exciting, like a flying fairy outside the sky, the finishing touch.

The thunderous applause rang out for a while, and even the host forgot to call the audience to quiet down.

As a matter of fact.

The host of today's academic lecture is none other than Zhou Zilin, a young professor at the School of Economics and Management of Capital University who has returned from studying in the United States.

Although the American Smith also disagreed with the speech of the presenter, rather than the experts and scholars who participated in the lecture, he was not able to speak as a rebuttal at this time.

Li Wenxiu's astonishing words, in addition to making the scene suddenly commotion, Zhou Zilin, as the host, also felt that he was as happy as pouring a bottle of cold snow beer on a hot day in August.

Sure enough.

Happiness never comes too late.

It's really painful.

But the next question is troublesome.

Even as an outsider, Zhou Zilin can't help but pinch a cold sweat for the student who spoke boldly, the students on the scene may not know Smith's personality, but he has studied in the United States and happened to have more than one contact with Smith, Zhou Zilin is still very familiar with this world-renowned Western-style economist.

If you want to make Smith unable to get off the stage with such a simple metaphor, things are not that simple.

There was no shortage of brave people on the scene, at least even if the doctoral student Enker, who spoke earlier, was more daring, but unfortunately, Enker did not have the powerful words to refute Smith's view.

Zhou Zilin was also a little apprehensive at this moment, and his eyes quickly looked at the audience below, trying to find the student who had just spoken from the crowd of black presses.

But Li Wenxiu hadn't stood up at this time, so Zhou Zilin didn't find anyone for a while.

Meanwhile.

Hearing Li Wenxiu's voice, An Ke'er, who had just spoken but returned in frustration, suddenly showed a surprised expression on her face.

Obviously.

She heard that the voice seemed familiar, was it Li Wenxiu?

It is unlikely that Li Wenxiu made an appointment to meet her an hour later, and how could he come to the lecture hall.

As a matter of fact.

Except for An Ke'er, the person who really heard what was said was Li Wenxiu, and Lao An was the only one.

Almost as soon as Li Wenxiu's voice fell, he immediately guessed that it was Li Wenxiu's kid.

This guy actually came here in a bunch, Lao An was still a little surprised, but when he recalled the analogy that Li Wenxiu made just now, he wanted to laugh a little in his heart.

Really.

The only way to be a rival to an academic hooligan like Smith is to intensify the academic hooliganism.

The situation of Li Wenxiu making a bet with him resurfaced in his mind, and An Daniu couldn't help laughing for a while.

"How's it going, Lao An, you're also amused by this student's point of view?"

"No, it seems that we still have talents at Capital University, not to mention anything else, just this metaphor, I think he can be exempted from a course in economics. ”

Lao An smiled, but there was no result, he was vaguely looking forward to how Li Wenxiu's guy would argue with Smith next.

Li Wenxiu's personality is still clear to him, this little guy never says something that he is not sure of.

Now that he's stepped up, Smith really can't take full control of the situation today.

On Li Wenxiu's side.

Originally, the female student who brought Li Wenxiu into the arena was a little shocked no matter how she looked at it.

In fact.

Students who can be admitted to Capital University will definitely not have a low level of English, at least there is no problem in understanding basic communication language.

Li Wenxiu's words just now did not have very professional economic terms, they used ordinary English words, and Li Wenxiu deliberately slowed down the speed of his speech, and did not rush out, so the students and teachers on the scene basically understood what he meant.

At least one must have heard it clearly.

Dumbfounded.

When Li Wenxiu finished speaking, and the audience burst into applause, she stared at Li Wenxiu in amazement and blinked.

I'm dripping mom!

How could he have such courage, but what he said was really happy, really happy.

"Well done!"

"Awesome, it's amazing, Boeing planes are not as good as carp!"

As the main leader in charge of daily teaching work at the School of Economics and Management of Capital University, Kang Mingsheng also frowned, but he couldn't see what his attitude was.

But undoubtedly.

Li Wenxiu's remarks just now still had a great impact on this professor, who is committed to studying world economics and Chinese economics.

As industry insiders, China's economics is still relatively late to have a complete theoretical system and a modern disciplinary framework.

After all, it is the developed countries of the West that dominate the world market, and how can a country that cannot even develop its economy give birth to world-class masters of economics, which is the most obvious reason.

Officially because of this reason, domestic scholars have always been relatively weak in this regard, which is not only reflected in academic debates, but even the selection of the Nobel Prize is also very related.

Li Wenxiu had read a report on this kind in his previous life, and the speaker was also a very well-known economist in China.

According to the other side's point of view, the selection rules of the Nobel Prize are actually unfavorable to domestic scholars, especially the nomination system.

If an economist wants to win the Nobel Prize, he must at least obtain a certain nomination and pass it, and those who are qualified for nomination and selection are also experts in the industry.

This means that if domestic scholars want to win the Nobel Prize, they must ensure that there must be a certain number of world-class economists in the same industry.

This is undoubtedly the most fatal for the domestic academic circle, where economics is still underdeveloped.

However, Li Wenxiu is naturally not thinking about this problem at this time, the Nobel Prize is too far away for him.

What he wants to think about is how to refute Smith's point of view and put forward his own opinion, which is the key to controlling the direction of this academic conference.

Straighten out your thoughts.

Li Wenxiu waited for the audience to gradually calm down, then slowly stood up, and immediately the attention of the audience was immediately attracted to this side.

Seeing that it was indeed a young student who spoke, many people immediately pinched a cold sweat again, for fear that Li Wenxiu would have the same problem as the female student who spoke just now.

However, what they didn't expect was that even if Li Wenxiu was weaker in theory, he would definitely surpass Smith in terms of vision.

So when Li Wenxiu began to speak slowly and methodically, everyone in the audience held their breath again.

Fluent English came out of his mouth, but Li Wenxiu was relatively calm, without any expression of stage fright.

In fact.

At this time, Li Wenxiu was already very well prepared, after all, it was not too difficult for him, with the experience of his previous life, it was nothing more than an impromptu answer to an ordinary question and answer question during the exam.

In another 10 to 15 years, I am afraid that any graduate student of the Department of Economics who has studied this question a little will be able to answer it very easily.

What Li Wenxiu is doing now is only to advance the time for answering this question by more than ten years, so for him, the most difficult thing is not to debate from what angle, but to play on the spot.

"I personally disagree with Mr. Smith's view, specifically in several aspects. The first aspect, Mr. Smith's ...... on the world"

From the perspective of the development of the world economy, Li Wenxiu quickly used relatively complete language to demonstrate that in a complete world market, every country is also an independent individual as a participant in the market economy.

Similarly, as a member of the World Trade Organization, China has played the role of consumer and producer, as well as a developer and producer, while participating in the world market.

Then, using the popular economic viewpoint in the West, Smith's viewpoint was once again explained by the historical outlook on development and the philosophical outlook on development, so much so that at the end of the day, Li Wenxiu even asked such a sentence.

If Mr. Smith still thinks that this is a question of distinction between East and West, then Mr. Smith should first understand that all who come are guests, if the difference between East and West is what Mr. Smith said.

Then I think I can get out of here now, for the simple reason that you're a Westerner, and the fact that Westerners come to study the problems of Easterners is a very big joke in itself.

After all, you don't know how Asian carp should be made to be delicious, and in our country, a grandmother who lives in the most remote mountain village and can't even speak the English letter ABC makes braised carp that is better than yours.

In that case, why should I listen to you instead of asking an old grandmother who knows how to cook?"

There was a bang.

Just after Li Wenxiu finished a paragraph of nearly hundreds of words in one breath, almost everyone in the audience clapped their palms desperately.

The thunderous applause seemed to overturn the entire venue.

At this time, in fact, the most relaxed people were not the students of Capital University sitting next to Li Wenxiu, but Kang Mingsheng sitting under the stage.

As the leader of the School of Economics and Management of Capital University, Kang Mingsheng is really relieved at this moment.

It is true that Capital University is open and free, and it has always regarded tolerance and academic freedom as a distinctive feature of its education, but when it comes to this kind of Sino-foreign debate, what he fears most is that the students who speak will elaborate on the issue from the perspective of a political science issue, rather than as a purely economic issue.

It wasn't until Li Wenxiu finished his words in one breath that Kang Mingsheng was convinced that Li Wenxiu did not explain his views purely from the perspective of economics, but from the perspective of history, sociology, and even philosophy.

It is surprising that the student seems to have turned the question to the carp and Boeing analogy again.

Although in his opinion, this metaphor is still a bit far-fetched, even forceful, but at this juncture, since Smith can not distinguish between black and white, and confuse simple economic problems with the so-called gap between East and West, it seems not surprising that Li Wenxiu visualizes economic problems as an ordinary social problem.

happened to respond to Lao An's words.

The only way to deal with scoundrels and scoundrels is to be more scoundrels and rascals than him.

Wonderful!

It's really exciting.

At this time.

Sitting on the stage, Smith also seemed to have some non-composure.

The Chinese student's speech just now did give him the feeling of looking at a beautiful woman through the clouds, and Li Wenxiu was very witty and did not avoid the question, but he did not bumper into it.

After all, if we talk about data and reality, it is indeed difficult to refute Smith's view, after all, it is only 2002, and it is still more than a decade before China becomes the world's second largest economy.

At this time, no one can predict this outcome in advance.

Of course.

As a killer feature, Li Wenxiu actually dug a hole for Smith.

So after saying it in one breath, Li Wenxiu quickly handed over the time to the other party to speak, and when Smith threw out the so-called comparative analysis of economics again, as expected, Li Wenxiu quickly threw out the bet with Lao An again.

"So, Mr. Smith, as an academic question, do you believe that in ten years' time, China's economy will surpass Germany and Japan to become the second largest economy after the United States?"

Boom.

The audience immediately burst into an exclamation.

It wasn't that he was booing Li Wenxiu, but he was taken aback by the words in Li Wenxiu's mouth.

Ten years more than any other economy outside the United States, oh my God! Is this possible?

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that if you compare last year's economic data, China is still a long way from this goal.

To achieve this goal, it means that China's economy as a whole must grow at least fourfold over the next decade, not counting other economies ahead of China, especially Japan, which has a certain rate of development.

If this growth is taken into account, then China's total economic output must grow fivefold at present to meet the target that Li Wenxiu said.

You must know that in 2001, China, which ranked sixth in the world, had an economic output of just over $1.1 trillion, while Japan, which ranked second, had an economic output of more than $4.2 trillion.

frowned.

Sitting not far from the stage, Lao An once again fell into deep thought.

In fact, this is not the first time An Daniu has heard such remarks from Li Wenxiu's mouth, but even so, he is still a little incredulous, and even doubts Li Wenxiu's judgment.

At this time, in fact, there was no point in arguing any further, so it was very decisive, seeing that the two sides had turned the issue of the debate to almost a hooligan-style gamble, on the stage, the host Zhou Zilin stood up very decisively to stop the next agenda.

Naturally.

At this time, the lecture could not be continued, so I had to announce a temporary break.
