That night, Yao Yuan rushed back to Nangang overnight.
The Boeing 747 was unable to take off and land at Southport, so he had to drive back.
Except for Lin Wei, Lin Xiaohu and Jiang Yong, Yao Yuan only brought Lin Shuting with him. The five of them drove two cars back to Nangang. This trip home was for personal matters.
Dad called and said that the house in his hometown was built and he wanted to go back and have a look. The most important thing is that in a few days it will be his parents' birthday, and Yao Yuan can't miss it no matter what.
After the company was integrated, Yao Yuan no longer had to keep an eye on everything. Even Lin Wei had a lot of free time and wanted to go home and have a look, so he followed.
There is no expressway from the provincial capital to Nangang. In fact, the first expressway in Guangdong Province was only opened to traffic two years ago and is only 15 kilometers long. The longer Guangzhou-Shenzhen Expressway is still under construction.
Yao Yuan gently tapped the steering wheel and said, "If you want to get rich, build roads first. Without transportation construction, economic development will not happen. Fei Wei, do you think we should spend money to build a highway from the provincial capital to Nangang?"
?”
Lin Wei was bleary-eyed in the back seat, and Lin Shuting was sitting in the co-pilot.
Lin Xiaohu and Jiang Yong drove a Pajero and followed behind.
Hearing what Yao Yuan said, Lin Wei rubbed his eyes and said, "Building roads is a matter of the government. You can't repair them even if you want to."
The last thing to worry about now is the financial problem. After going through so many things, Lin Wei is no longer as stingy as before, otherwise the first thing he said would definitely be "How to get the money back?".
Lin Shuting rarely interrupted and said, "The Guangzhou-Shenzhen Expressway is a Sino-foreign joint venture. Enterprises invest in road construction and recover costs and profits through tolls. There should be no problem for enterprises to participate in road construction."
"Loans are used to build roads, and repayment is charged. The province proposed this idea a few years ago, and now it has become a reality. There is no threshold for companies to participate in road construction. However, within 20 to 30 years, money will be collected.
I won’t come back.” Yao Yuan smiled.
Lin Wei said, "Building roads is a good thing and benefits the country and the people. I have no objection."
Yao Yuan looked back in surprise, "When did you become so generous? I used to talk nonsense when I asked you to invest tens of millions."
"This is road construction, which benefits the country and the people, and is of great significance. Don't you often say that entrepreneurs should have the responsibilities of entrepreneurs? Didn't you say that when wealth reaches a certain level, it is not your own money, but your own money?"
The whole society will temporarily hold this money and use it where it can make the most difference." Lin Wei said suddenly.
Yao Yuan was so angry, "Hey, if I say one thing and you answer ten, are you still angry when you get up? How about I let you wake up?"
"No, these words were originally said by you, and I think they are right." Lin Wei said hurriedly.
Lin Shuting couldn't help laughing. Listening to the two brothers bickering, she felt that the man she loved was a real person, not a wealthy and powerful boss.
After all, the net profit of hundreds of millions of dollars is really difficult for people to understand with normal thinking and logic, and this is only part of it.
Yao Yuan said in an exaggerated tone, "Fei Wei, you have now learned to consider issues from the perspective of the situation. It is very good, very good. After more than a year of doing business, you have finally made some progress."
"What do you mean? I am also a college student after all, a talented student at Nangang School of Finance and Accounting. Do you think I am still a junior high school student? If you don't believe me, ask Teacher Lin. I am among the top three in the class in the exam." Lin Wei said unconvinced.
Lin Shuting nodded and said, "Yes, Awei's final exam score was second in the class, and the first place was an economist from the Finance Bureau."
"Real or false." Yao Yuan glanced at Lin Wei suspiciously.
Lin Shuting smiled and said, "It's true, our school helped correct the papers. I saw it with my own eyes."
The class offered by Nangang School of Accounting is not something that ordinary people can attend. Yao Yuan had also learned before that if it weren’t for the help of Yao Yuan’s tutor, Professor Mo, Lin Wei might not have been able to get in, even if he spent money. All the classmates in the class were from junior college.
Only Lin Wei is a junior high school student.
Junior college students in the early 1990s were much more popular and valuable than undergraduates. Some five-year junior colleges were even more difficult to pass than undergraduates from prestigious universities.
Yao Yuan said with a smile, "Then you keep working hard, try to go to graduate school after your undergraduate degree, learn more while you are young, study international law, and delve into the legal field for a while. In the future, we will face more and more intellectual property issues.
disputes, which is why I promoted the Intellectual Property Department to be directly under the headquarters group."
"When it comes to sales revenue of hundreds of billions of dollars, how can you compete with the Americans if you don't put in the hard work and study for ten years or so?"
Lin Wei curled his lips and said, "You're bragging again... It's possible to have tens of billions of Chinese coins, U.S. dollars, how much is that? Trillions of Chinese coins, Ayuan, you really know how to brag."
"Do you know what our province's GDP was last year?"
He gestured exaggeratedly and said, "190 billion Chinese dollars! If you tell Vice Governor Zhang that Zhujiang New City can achieve a GDP of the order of 300 billion Chinese dollars after it is completed, you will be surprised if he is not crazy."
Yao Yuan was stunned, smacked his lips carefully, and had to forcefully bring his conceptual standards back to reality from 20 years later. He nodded slightly and said, "Indeed, the province's GDP last year was only 190 billion, and the increase was very small.
, But this is also the last time, Fei Wei, if I said that our province’s GDP this year will skyrocket by 50 to 60 billion to about 250 billion, would you believe it?"
"Believe it or not, the investment we have made alone can at least stimulate the growth of tens of billions of GDP." Lin Wei looked unsurprised.
Yao Yuan was stunned again, and suddenly shook his head with a wry smile, and said with emotion, "Yes, I consider myself an outsider again. It turns out that we are also the main force supporting GDP growth."
Lin Shuting never expresses her opinion on Yao Yuan's business, but this talented woman has her own unique perspective on the national economy.
She said, "The gross national product is indeed an important index for judging a region's economy. Nowadays, many places only see GDP, which is not objective. The average income of residents, the level of residents' savings, the range of price increases and decreases, the value of consumer products, the government
Investment in infrastructure, the ratio of annual industrial investment to output, etc., etc., these factors should all be used as measurement indexes. Evaluating a regional economy is actually a very complex statistics."
Yao Yuan was dumbfounded, and Lin Wei was even dumbfounded.
Just after passing the bumpy road, Yao Yuan slowed down and said in surprise, "Honey, aren't you an English teacher? What you said is better than a Ph.D. supervisor in economics."
"Stop talking nonsense, who is your wife?" Lin Shuting glared shyly.
Lin Wei looked at his nose and heart and pretended he didn't hear it.
Yao Yuan hurriedly said, "Okay, okay, Teacher Lin."
Lin Shuting calmed down and said, "I am an undergraduate, not a junior college student. English is my strong point, but it does not mean that I am weak in other subjects. Economic theory is the main course and a large course, and it accounts for a high proportion of points."
The various indices she mentioned were not fully taken seriously until 20 years later. From now until the 2008 economic crisis, GDP-only theory will still prevail. Even until 2022, countries and local governments will still
Treat gdp as the most important data reflecting the level of economic development.
"It is true that gdp cannot completely and objectively reflect the economic development level of a region. However, gdp is the only data that can intuitively reflect the level of economic development. It is just that some places have experienced some extreme behaviors in the pursuit of gdp growth, such as
If you sacrifice the environment as the price, you will have to swallow the bitter fruits you have sown in the future." Yao Yuan said solemnly.
Lin Wei was not very impressed by Yao Yuan's words, but Lin Shuting knew very well that Yao Yuan was not an alarmist. Although Lin Wei had traveled to many countries, much more than Lin Shuting had been to, his horizons were far less than what he had been to in one day.
Lin Shuting spent a quarter of the time in the library.
As the old saying goes, travel thousands of miles and read thousands of books. If you don’t have the conditions to travel thousands of miles, read thousands of books. Reading is the most cost-effective way to broaden your horizons.
