Chapter 244: The Post-Industrial Era

As an undergraduate student who just graduated from college this year, Gao Zhongxuan now feels confused.

Can you not be confused?

Overnight, his brain was loaded into a library, and he became a little superman with invincible poison and super quality, and he felt that more than ten years of learning were in vain, and he was wasting his life.

Looking at the industrial robots and service robots that are being advertised on TV, they have begun to spread to various fields in China.

For example, the current sanitation work is supplemented by manual labor, and sanitation robots are the mainstay.

Many industrial product assembly lines, the degree of automation is rapidly improving, some factories with a high degree of automation, has achieved about 95% of automated production.

So isn't the scale of citizens' jobs being reduced in disguise, and this situation is really happening, and it is the progress of the whole society.

However, the actual unemployment rate in China is not too high, and it remains at about 6%Note: The official data is between 4.5~4.7% all year round, but the actual rate should be 1~2% higher.

Why this is happening

In fact, this is an important manifestation of the post-industrial era, where human beings are not engaged in mechanical labor, but in services, commerce, agriculture and creative industries.

If you look at the per capita disposable income of the people, the overall growth rate in the past two years is only about 2.6%, but the value of the Chinese dollar has increased by 267~284%.

It means that 100 yuan in 2013 can buy 30 kilograms of flour; And in 2016, 100 yuan could make 90 kilograms of flour.

This year, the exchange rate of the Chinese dollar and the US knife once reached the level of 2.6:1.

The crazy appreciation of Huayuan seems to be unfavorable to exports, but things are not so simple, because the internal factor of Huayuan's appreciation is based on the explosion of productive forces based on controlled nuclear fusion.

This is a spontaneous appreciation, which is intended to match productivity and the value of money, rather than an empty coercive appreciation.

Moreover, export products have not been affected, because the explosion of productivity brought by the nuclear fusion reactor has effectively reduced production costs.

It's just that foreign countries don't eat the dividends of technological upgrading, because the explosion in the value of the Chinese dollar means that the cost of buying foreign things has fallen, and domestic export products are offset by price reductions.

To achieve this currency appreciation model, the premise is that productivity really rises, otherwise the consequence is that, like Dongying, its own industry will decline in competitiveness due to currency appreciation, resulting in a long-term economic downturn.

This year, China's GDP is expected to exceed 180 trillion Chinese dollars, which is equivalent to 65 trillion US dollars according to the current Chinese dollar value, which is slightly more than three times the GDP of the United States.

Some people may think that this currency value is quite exaggerated, but if you take into account the population of both sides, China's per capita GDP is still slightly lower than that of the United States.

But China has the domestic foundation to support such a huge economy.

At present, the pillar industries in China are: virtual networks, 6G communications, computer software, high-energy batteries, electric vehicles, semiconductors and electronic equipment, precision instruments, greenhouse three-dimensional agriculture, automated robots, household appliances, seawater desalination, coal chemical industry, biomedicine, and the whole system of light and heavy industry.

There are also new infrastructure plans, large aerospace plans, and large recycling plans that are being promoted in the near futureNote: The large recycling plan is the recycling of refined garbage and waste, waste, waste water, and waste gas, so as to achieve a waste-free society.

These products are collateral for the value of the Chinese dollar.

Among them, coal-to-oil and coal-to-gas are energy, anyway, 80% of the crude oil and gas supplied by South Korea and Dongying are supplied by China.

In agriculture, in the first three quarters of this year, China's total grain output reached an astonishing 570 million tons, and oil crops, animal oils, vegetables and fruits, poultry, livestock, eggs, milk, fish, and meat were basically self-sufficient, and there was even a large export surplus.

This is the comprehensive improvement of society brought about by new technologies such as controlled nuclear fusion, seawater desalination, and new material technology.

……

Gao Zhongxuan's hometown is in the Great Wall-style beach area in northern Qin Province, and he had already planned to work in Lingnan to make money, and then bring his parents and family to live in the coastal area.

Now he hesitates, because with the arrival of water pipelines to the northern part of the Loess Plateau, coupled with rural cooperatives and low-cost electricity.

The farmland and pastures of Fengsha are developing very fast, and after seeing the pictures and videos of his hometown sent by his sister, Gao Zhongxuan doesn't think there is anything good about being in a big city.

The emergence of virtual networks has further broken the spatial and geographical limitations. Cheap energy for controlled nuclear fusion further balances the regional development gap; Biocomputers have struck at the imbalance in knowledge and education.

When the rural areas of the northwest can have the environment of the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River, and when the work and education can be done while sitting at home, the advantages of the big city are gone.

The reverse urbanization of the post-industrial era has been overwhelmingly overwhelmed.

He quickly packed his luggage and prepared to go back to his hometown.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw that the landlord was in the hallway not far away, discussing something with two tenants.

He listened for a few minutes, and it turned out that the landlord was about to sell the house, but the two tenants had no intention of taking over.

"I'm out of the transfer fee for 30,000 square meters."

"Lao Zhang, we've been dealing with each other for two or three years, and you should still think it's 8002 if you are 30,000 flats."

"Haha......"

"But ......"

Gao Zhongxuan also shook his head with a wry smile, in the four years of Yangcheng University, he can be regarded as witnessing history.

Since the beginning of 14 years, housing prices in the Pearl River Delta have begun to grow slightly negatively, and no one wants to buy a house near the university town this year.

First, it was affected by the impact of rural cooperatives and Huanong Group's staff housing; Second, the western and backward regions are catching up; Third, the biological computer directly killed the school district room.

Now who is willing to buy a house in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen at a high price

There has even been a wave of mortgage cuts, and even banks and real estate companies have been forced to breathless, so they can only keep lowering the repayment amount according to the house price.

Therefore, there are many apartment owners who have a large number of houses in their hands, and they have to ask someone to take over the house, but there are very few who are willing to take over.

Gao Zhongxuan quickly agreed with the landlord about checking out tomorrow, then settled the deposit and returned to the rental house.

After graduating from university this year, he joined a product design company, and Gao Zhongxuan himself is a registered intermediate programmer.

Talking to the company's supervisor about going back to his hometown, the company did not stop it, only by completing the task on time and with quality, the company is too lazy to care if you live in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, or the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

This is a characteristic of the virtual network era, maybe a company does not even have an office location in reality, there is a virtual office building in Nanke Mengjie, and the employees are also in the north and south.

The deeper the integration with the virtual world, the higher the degree of virtual office.

The next day, Gao Zhongxuan went to the high-speed rail station and prepared to take the high-speed rail back to Qin Province.

The half-human-tall barrel-shaped cleaning robot accurately avoids the flow of people and sweeps away the dust and garbage in the high-speed rail station.

Gao Zhongxuan's biggest feeling is that with the improvement of the quality of passengers, many people consciously queue up, do not spit, and throw garbage cigarette butts, which is related to the increase in the number of new humans.

The other is the application of new technologies, such as exoskeletons for security personnel, advanced and harmless neutrino atom imaging scanners, genetic identification technology, and so on.

If you live abroad for a long time, as soon as you enter the country, that kind of science fiction style will come to you, as if a low-level civilization has entered a high-level civilization.
