Chapter 233: Lan Bin's Bet
The investigation of southern Hunan gradually came to an end, and Liang Sanping reluctantly found that the development of the betel nut industry in southern Hunan at this time seemed to be still in its infancy. Although it has entered the period of reform and opening up, most of the betel nut chewers are bastards except for some old people.
And the betel nut here is now sold in one bite and one bite, and a mouthful of betel nut is only a penny. It can be regarded as the initial stage, and the market still needs in-depth development. And Liang Sanping is also considering whether to transport some raw betel nuts to sell.
After discussing the project of rice and fish farming with Song Zhixing, Liang Sanping left Xiangnan. At present, there is no complete dried betel nut technology in Xiangnan, so Liang Sanping feels that he can do this technology first.
As for the formula...... Liang Sanping believes that the experts in Qiongdao must know better than he knows what recipe will be better. At this time, what Liang Sanping had to do was to go to Jiangkou.
Not only because of Mu Shan's invitation, but also because Jiang Li has arranged a packaging printing and design team for himself in Jiangkou. Liang Sanping needed to go there in person to confirm the design of the packaging and formulate the first batch of printing.
Fortunately, southern Hunan and northern Guangdong are not far apart, and once again complained about the traffic of this era. After shaking for a few days, Liang Sanping arrived in Yangcheng with a heavy head. I bought a ticket with a letter of introduction and arrived at the mouth of the river by car.
At this time, the mouth of the river had been separated from the inside and outside of the temple by barbed wire, and it was necessary to pass through a special port to enter the special zone. But there is no problem with this, Liang Sanping has already completed the border defense certificate.
At this time, it is not easy for Eguchi to enter. You'll need to get to the border and then go through the border crossing to get into the city. The places that were isolated outside the city were gradually collectively referred to as "Kanwai".
The development outside the customs and the development inside the customs are completely the development of two worlds. At present, there are many factories in the Kannai, and in later generations, there are many office buildings. At this time, some people have already begun to put forward the concept of building a Jiangkou CBD.
The first area to be considered a CBD was later known as Tomita Ward. Of course. Eventually, it also became the CBD area of Eguchi. It includes administration, radio and television, culture, convention and exhibition, commerce and ...... and so on.
Today, Tomita Ward is just an area of the city with many factories. Even the famous Huaqiangbei is now just a large factory building. There is no trace of the shadow of the Asian electronic trading center later.
"Hahaha...... Sanping! Rushed over from Shonan, tired, right?! When he walked out of the port, he saw Lan Bin greet him with a smile. Mushan's position is stable, and progress has been made, and naturally Lan Bin's position has also been consolidated.
"Hey! Our traffic environment should really be changed. Otherwise, the transportation will be a problem. What kind of development can you talk about......" Liang Sanping complained to Lan Bin with a wry smile: "The road is not passable, how can you get through the money?!" How are people prosperous?! β
Lan Bin heard Liang Sanping's complaints, grabbed his arm with a smile and said, "It's been like this for a while, and the above has already promised our IPO project." Soon the highway between us and Yangcheng will be repaired, and the situation will naturally be better by then......"
Liang Sanping nodded, it was true. Now the veteran comrades of the Southern Tour have inspected and affirmed Jiangkou. A lot has been explained, even if some people are no longer willing, they can only pinch their noses and admit it. Mushan's constraints will be much less for the time being.
And as Mushan's achievements become bigger and bigger, there will naturally be fewer and fewer elbows. But Lan Bin also knew that Mu Shan would probably have to retire soon after completing the project. After all, Mu Shan's age is also old. It won't last many years.
Lan Bin hugged Liang Sanping into a Santana with a smile, and looked at this Santana Liang Sanping couldn't help laughing: "Yo~!" Lao Lan, you are a shotgun for a gun! This Poussin is all on! β
"Hey! This is a public car, where can I afford it! If I didn't come to pick you up today, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to drive this car! But seeing Lan Bin said with a smile: "Uncle is usually reluctant to drive this car, unless an important guest comes." β
Liang Sanping nodded, he knew that the reason why Mu Shan wanted to buy this car must also be to support the faΓ§ade of the Jiangkou Municipal Government. And Mu Shan's own personality doesn't like extravagance and publicity.
Come to think of it. Liang Sanping couldn't help but sigh. Mu Shan really values himself enough, and he is reluctant to drive more cars on weekdays. but asked Lan Bin to pick him up. This shows the weight of Liang Sanping in his heart.
Santana entered the Chinese market as early as 1983 and was successfully assembled in the magic capital. But for now, at least, this Santana is a rarity. Until 1986, there were only 10,000 Pusanga in the country.
But then, Santana's market share gradually increased. By 1995, Poussin's production had soared to 500,000 units. directly made many people stunned through their glasses.
"Alas...... This German car is really good! It's much more comfortable to drive than our old jeep......" While driving the car, Lan Bin chatted with Liang Sanping: "Don't you know, the old jeep has a hard time gearing......"
"How many years have we been separated from them on this side?! Moreover, their technology is constantly evolving. So we're not up to them. This is normal. But give us some more time to develop, and it will definitely catch up. β
Liang Sanping's words, Lan Bin smiled and did not respond. To be honest, his confidence is not as strong as Liang Sanping's. In Jiangkou, a city of foreign contact, he saw a lot of foreign situations.
It's Xiangjiang, and he's been there many times. But every time he went, he felt that he had learned a lot. Every time he goes, he can deeply feel the huge gap between Xiangjiang and the mainland.
This is just Xiangjiang, what if it is replaced by the United States and the United Kingdom?! So how big will the gap be?! Lan Bin didn't even dare to think about it, he felt that he might despair if he thought about it.
"Lao Lan, don't be too pessimistic. It is true that there is still a big gap between us and them, but as long as we work hard, the gap will gradually narrow. Liang Sanping seemed to see Lan Bin's thoughts and said with a smile.
"I've never thought miracles can't be created, and I've never thought there's nothing that can't be surpassed. Once upon a time, the Americans blocked our rubber. Self-reliance, we still planted rubber in Yunnan Province and Qiongdao! We breed our own and develop our own planting schemes, and now even Americans have to admit our know-how. β
"In the past, neither the Americans nor the Soviets believed that we could build an atomic bomb on our own. But we detonated the atomic bomb ourselves. They thought we couldn't build satellites, but we did! β
Liang Sanping straightened his waist and looked at Lan Bin and said word by word: "In the past, no one thought that vegetables and fruits could make Japanese money, but I still did it." So, I don't think there's anything that can't be done. You can't do it because you haven't put in enough effort and thought. What you need is to work harder and think harder. β
Lan Bin held the steering wheel in his hand and said with a wry smile: "How easy is it...... Sanping, the gap between us and them is too big. It's not a little bit worse, it's a gap of more than a decade or even decades......"
"If we don't chase, we don't have a chance. Desperately trying to chase it, we still have a chance to catch up. Liang Sanping smiled slightly and said, "For example, now, our technology in Qiongdao is stronger than Japan's in some aspects!" β
"That's what I'm trying to catch up with." After a pause, Liang Sanping said: "If we don't catch up, then this gap will only get bigger and bigger." In some ways, we don't have a choice. The energy is to chase it to the death! β
When Lan Bin heard this, he couldn't help but be silent. He held the steering wheel without saying a word, as if thinking about something. And Liang Sanping didn't speak again. Quietly looking at the estuary outside the window, watching the estuary change little by little.
"Sanping, let's make a bet......" After a long time, Lan Bin said softly: "If within a year, you can sell your products to the United States." Then I'm going to help you even if I resign from public office......"
"I'd love to see our country catch up with the developed countries, but if I stay here. I'm afraid I'm going to lose more and more confidence, so I'd better go to you. And you step by step out of the ......"
Liang Sanping smiled. He knew very well in his heart that in fact the horn was just to find an excuse for himself, an excuse to leave. In Jiangkou, Lan Bin was very tired. The pressure of daily work, as well as the invisible political pressure.
These burdens were almost all on him. But these are not the most important problems, the most important problem is that under these pressures, there is still a lot of elbowing and discussion. It annoys him.
When Mushan was the most difficult, Lan Bin naturally couldn't leave Mushan. But now that the situation has gradually become clearer, Lan Bin is a little impatient. As a young man, he prefers to be free.
Instead of being bound by various rules in the estuary, a bunch of people come up and point fingers at the slightest trivial. He's had enough of days like this. So he thought about going to Liang Sanping and returning to Qiongdao.
At least, he was able to play more of his strengths in Joan. The boredom in Jiangkou reminded him of the days when he helped Liang Sanping in Qiongdao. What a good day it was, and I was full of energy every day.
You can see your own efforts to make your dreams come true little by little, and those impossible things are gradually becoming possible. Lan Bin felt that that was the life he wanted to live. And not as it is now.
"Is Uncle Mushan willing to let him go?!" Liang Sanping smiled slightly and said, "Now Lao Lan, you are Uncle Mushan's chief general, is he willing to let you go so lightly?!" I don't think you can go! β
Lan Bin smiled bitterly, it seems that this is really the case now...... (To be continued......)
