Chapter 480: The Red Gate Banquet
Lin Qiangsheng once again stayed at the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse, this time about the nuclear power project, and the higher-ups wanted to hear his opinion.
Since he got on the big petrochemical project, he has spent most of his time running back and forth between several sites and the capital, and he also takes planes, and flying around is always in the sky, which also makes Lin Qiangsheng used to it a lot.
Fortunately, he was lucky not to encounter any air crashes to make himself hiccup, the first two years in China's aviation industry there were several crashes, 82 years there were two 83 years, each flight accident will cause a huge disaster to China's aviation industry and passengers and relatives.
Planes carrying dozens to hundreds of people are like canned meat, and your safety in the sky does not belong to you, you can only pray that there will be no accidents on the plane, and the pilots and ground commanders are skilled and united!
The main purpose of his visit to Beijing this time was to discuss with the central leaders the investment plan for the nuclear power plant, and to explain Lin Qiangsheng's idea of investing in the nuclear power plant and the purpose he wanted to achieve.
To put it bluntly, the superiors still don't believe much in this young man, he is different from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan rich like Li Ka-shing, they have a clear history of development and struggle, this is not to say that they have not used any means, but the country is clear about them. Moreover, the two sides still have a long-term tacit cooperation, even if these people do nothing but silently develop at a critical moment to stand up for New China and say a word or stand together, then the country is also happy.
Lin Qiangsheng doesn't have these, he doesn't have the same local influence as Li Ka-shing and other wealthy businessmen in Hong Kong and Macao, his foundation is in China and the United States and the development time is very short, this thin background is very different from Li Ka-shing and others!
Maybe the foreign monks are really good at chanting, and the native turtles in their country are just sent away and flickered past.
And some people have also turned over his past bad records, Lin Qiangsheng once engaged in speculation and resold cloth on a large scale, making millions of dollars before the state cracked down and exchanged foreign exchange privately. and inexplicably mixed up a Hong Kong nationality and became a Hong Kong businessman.
Although these things are not on the table, it has long been wrong, but it does not mean that some people do not start from these small things to analyze him as a person, and the conclusion of their analysis is that Lin Qiangsheng, a young man, is good at drilling camps and likes to take advantage of the trend. He is a contradictory individual, although he grew up under the red flag, he has a capitalist mentality, and he quickly adapts to the Western economic system in capitalist society!
This is also something that some people do not understand. Why would a young Chinese who was born and raised under the red flag and has never been in contact with Western society adapt to the foreign environment so quickly?
You must know that many of our capable and specialized public students are not suitable for all kinds of foreign countries, but this university dropout is like a fish in the Western environment and knows how to use various resources, while our international students or visiting groups do not even dare to talk to others when they go abroad!
Although the reform and opening up are now all visitors, and China also vigorously welcomes investors, people like Lin Qiangsheng are regarded in China as speculative capitalists who have been brainwashed by Western capitalism, and want to invest not only in big petrochemicals but also in domestic nuclear power plants, which makes some people mutter. Is this young man reliable?
Lin Qiangsheng did not like to socialize, but at noon on the second day of his arrival in Beijing, several leaders of the State Council, including Hu Yaobang and Zhao Ziyang, met with Lin Qiangsheng in the name of a banquet. It is especially rare that the supreme leader Hui and Li Chen also arrived at the venue, both of whom are also China's second-generation leaders, with high status and power, and even attended the banquet.
While the lavish tables are filled with delicacies such as abalone, bird's nest and steamed bear's paws, it is more appropriate to have an important meeting than a sumptuous feast.
The leaders affirmed and praised Lin Qiangsheng's active investment in the country, especially Li Chen, the two founding fathers of the Republic, who were the executors and leaders of reform and opening up. Lin Qiangsheng's efforts to vigorously support the domestic automobile industry, electronics industry, and petrochemical industry were highly recognized!
Some people must have suppressed the doubts in their hearts when they heard that several elders were so supportive of Lin Qiangsheng, and the leaders all agreed. If you still hold on to Lin Qiangsheng's disgraceful things, it seems that your position is wrong.
Lin Qiangsheng also happily toasted a few glasses of wine to the leaders, today is a rare opportunity to meet with these people, although he is very satisfied with the affirmation of the leaders and agrees, but in fact, Lin Qiangsheng really doesn't care about this, the main thing is that he is happy to see a few people today, maybe there will be no chance to meet these early Chinese leaders in this life. It's really one less time to see each other.
Lin Qiangsheng is in the spirit of admiring the giant pandas, facing these leaders, if his mind is discovered, several leaders must not let him get out of the way!
Zhao Ziyang, who is in charge of the country's economic work and is also the main formulator of major policies, may be the lowest age and position in the audience, he asked Lin Qiangsheng directly: "Xiaolin." We know you were still a hairy boy in '79, why did you think about starting a cloth business in the first place? This is what taught you, but it violates the rules of the state! ”
Lin Qiangsheng looked at Zhao Ziyang, who was wearing glasses and facing Sven, with a smile, and paused for a while before saying with a smile: "The leaders all know that our people's lives are too hard, and they are too tight on themselves!" I have also experienced that an employee of a state-owned enterprise does not have an eight-foot cloth ticket all year round, and if a young man marries a daughter-in-law or a girl wants to marry, the whole family has to go to relatives, friends, and neighbors to borrow cloth tickets on credit to make a new set of clothes! Therefore, the Chinese people have developed a unique habit, that is, to save a few cloth tickets and other people to borrow, so that it is not difficult to borrow tickets from others when their own family is in trouble! This has a special phenomenon, in Chinese society is even better than the renminbi! ”
Most of the leaders were smiling and groaning, and a few of them quietly changed their faces and were not so calm.
Lin Qiangsheng continued: "I also noticed that there is actually no shortage of money in the hands of people in the city! The vast number of rural and urban and rural residents actually have money! But they all have a problem, they can't spend the money in their hands! ”
"Oh, how so?" Zhao Ziyang lowered his glasses and asked.
Lin Qiangsheng took a bite of food and drank a sip of wine, and then wiped a handful of heroic napkins on his mouth casually and said arbitrarily: "It's very simple, we lack the market, in the words of the government, there is a shortage of materials and a shortage of goods!" But then Lin Qiangsheng shook his finger and said: "But I want to say that China is not only short of materials but also the market is seriously congested, even if the people have money in their hands, they may not be able to buy goods, if you want to buy a TV in China, you have to have a TV ticket, if you want to buy a watch, you have to have a watch ticket, if you want to buy a bicycle, you have to ask for a ticket, and if you want to buy anything, you have to ask for a ticket!" If you go far away, you have to ask for a letter of introduction, and if you don't have a letter of introduction, it's called blind. Flow! ”
"The Chinese are too bitter, lack of food and clothing! There are brothers and sisters in the family, the eldest wears the parents, and the younger ones pick up the rest of the brothers and sisters, which is a very normal and common thing, hard and simple! But why is this happening? Is it because we are not productive enough? No, I remember that a few years ago, it was said that the domestic cloth production of hundreds of millions of tons was enough for the people of the whole country to make a few sets of clothes, where did all these things go! Why are our people all bitter, and compared with foreign people, our people's faces are bitter and unhappy! ”
The leaders at the scene all had embarrassed looks on their faces, and some of them gradually became angry.
Zhao Ziyang patted the table lightly and said to Lin Qiangsheng: "Tell the point!" You said that the common people have money in their hands, how did you think of making money! ”
Lin Qiangsheng patted his forehead and said: "Yes, I found that the people have money in their hands, and the bundles that buy TVs will buy them if they take the money to the counter and buy it!" The price of a television set is five or six hundred, and the cheapest one is more than three hundred, if a worker can earn a salary of 30 yuan a month, he can only buy a television without eating or drinking for two or three years! But even this can't stop people from wanting to watch TV! The same bicycle watch, buy the same on the second and third kinds, and there is still a popular marriage in the society What three major pieces of marriage what newlyweds must-haves, although many marriage families are difficult, but in the end they are almost together, the purchasing power of our Chinese people is actually quite large! ”
"The Chinese people are actually rich, a few years ago, the black-and-white TVs that were emptied every day in department stores are proof, and now the color TVs are emptied every day, and they are sold out in a morning on the counter, and the people in front of the counter are full every day, and the black-and-white TVs are not in vogue in the society, and now they are all big color TVs, the bigger the better!"
The leaders regained their mood and listened to Lin Qiangsheng's words with relish, which was also new to them, because no one had ever been able to truly present the lives of the people at the bottom in front of them, and it could not be said that there was no but it was extremely rare, so they were very interested in hearing Lin Qiangsheng's simple language, and they did not interrupt Lin Qiangsheng.
