Meidong went to China on this trip, considering that the most important task was to buy rare earths, so of course he invited Uncle Longteng and his wife to accompany him, and brought a large number of scientists affiliated to the consortium to form a foreign trade team of a total of 30 people. As for the whole process of this trip, the government personnel will receive the reception, and then contact the relevant departments, chatting and exploring various possibilities for doing business, tourism and work, which is quite a typical model.

Because it is clear that rare earths are valuable, but the purchase restrictions are also based on countries, and individual needs are still scarce after all. In terms of nuclear reactor construction, Meidong's demand is really only a few tens of kilograms per year, and if you talk about this work alone, you don't need to set up such a huge team.

The plane landed at the airport, the maglev train led to the city, and the government dispatched vehicles arrived at the hotel. This land, which she has not set foot on for 20 years, attracts her attention with its rapid changes, and as the economic and financial center of an entire country, every street in Shanghai is brand new as if it came from a science fiction world.

At the same time, considering that his niece has rarely been to China, Uncle Long Teng took the initiative to propose that the host party extend the time of the visit. It's good that Midong is just able to travel around the city in the name of the official, and since she is very familiar with the city after all, it is very time-saving to visit.

Of course, while visiting, Meidong really focused on observing the degree of development, such as the high-speed rail problem that he most directly experienced.

It is no longer news that China's high-speed rail has completely exploded the Shinkansen, although over the years, Japan has also had a chance to overtake, but China can always overtake again in the shortest possible time. Today's high-speed rail can reach 400 kilometers at a maximum speed, and the stability of the finger is an old news even earlier, no matter which technology, it needs to be studied by Japanese companies.

Of course, Meidong also went to visit Shanghai's foreign trade port, and dragged her uncle and aunt as a matter of course. More than a dozen kilometers of coastline, the grand scene of countless tower cranes and cranes, and the scene of countless containers lined up have naturally exploded the port of Shimizu countless times and squeezed Tokyo's position in the world.

Then, Uncle Longteng naturally contacted the personnel of the state-owned enterprises in Shanghai Port. Although the strength of the god-level gantry crane of Benzhou Heavy Industry is extremely strong, after all, it is already a product of China Zhenhua Heavy Industry 20 years ago. Even if market demand is an interesting study, since their own products are only old goods from the other party 20 years ago, who should not concentrate on the other party's latest products?

These things keep the uncle busy, and Meidong is more concerned about the proportion of new energy vehicles on the streets of Shanghai. Although the term has been used for 20 years, considering that it will be three years before the gas-fired cars are discontinued, they do still have such a name.

One-quarter of gas-fired cars, two-quarters of hybrids and one-quarter pure electric vehicles, this is the current traffic situation in Shanghai.

In this regard, the ratio may be the smallest difference between China and Japan. More than 70% of the cars on the streets of Japan are small-displacement, and because of the special convenience brought by the high degree of urbanization, there is a naturally huge market for electric vehicles. Therefore, while the Chinese side is still slowly passing through the batch of hybrid vehicles, the Japanese side has already occupied a large part of the country, and is waiting to completely kill the pure oil-burning side.

If there is a reason why Midon pays special attention to this technology, it is naturally because the Miyamoto Foundation is also stepping into the field of electric vehicles. Although there are only a handful of Japanese car brands that have entered the international market, such as Toyota, Honda, and Nissan, even the domestic market still contains a large number of domestic brands, and the Miyamoto family has not ignored it.

Therefore, the so-called drunkard does not mean wine, and the purchase of rare earths is only secondary.

Guesthouse at night.

It's still early, and no one plans to sleep at this time, especially in the living room of this suite, where Midong and Uncle Longteng have been talking for a long time.

"Our GDP has risen to 7 trillion yuan, an unprecedented achievement, if we don't start the infrastructure industry, why wait until when."

Meidong's sentence is full of emotions: "I understand the conservative development of the homeland, no one has forced the people to change houses, and it is a good thing to have a sense of history." But we can't confuse a broken house with an old house, don't we have to replace it like the United States, where roads are full of potholes and Manhattan signs are rusty? If it is an industrial product in the first place, then it is not strange to replace it with a newer industrial creation, right? ”

"So in the end, we still have to start from our own national conditions, and Japan and China are very different."

Uncle Long Teng waved his hand and said, "The land area is the most direct obstacle. To put it mildly, in a place where the farts are bigger, everyone looks down every day and doesn't see the social environment that they see, if the builder builds facilities on a large scale in three days and two ends, and it doesn't take long for a while, everything you are familiar with will be completely smoothed, then Mozi, you say, is this hometown still a hometown? ”

"So, I didn't say that I was going to do this level of transformation."

Midong waved his hand and chuckled: "It is precisely because of the nature of Japan that there are many people in Japan, so any of our achievements will definitely have a huge impact. Japan is also a highly urbanized country, and the appearance of Japan was fixed in the late 80s, but there must be something we can do here, such as slowly buying real estate and becoming the largest landlord in Japan. ”

"The largest landlord in all of Japan?"

This sentence sounds like he is full of sincerity, and as a post-90s generation of the last century, Miyamoto Longteng laughed heartily. But at this time, he and his niece sat in front of the hotel balcony in the center of Shanghai, looking out at the entire bustling city outside.

"It's true that the value of Japanese real estate is appreciating again, but people have never lost their minds by referring to the painful lessons of the past. If you buy a large amount of real estate, you don't change hands, just sit back and wait for the slow appreciation and rent profits to pile up, which is indeed a way to make money, but in terms of efficiency, it is inevitable that it will be slower. ”

"So only large consortia are capable of doing it, aren't they?"

Mei Dong's words can really be said to be sentence after sentence: "Business naturally needs to expand, but influence, a more important thing, is what we should really manage with our hearts now, right?" ”

That's true, but what about the cost?
