Chapter 373: Strong reconciliation can help people see the essence
Chapter 373: Strong reconciliation can help people see the essence
Yes, they just blocked off their loneliness.
Because they need Julong's high-end chips and they need Julong's advanced electronic products.
They explicitly prohibit it.
However, their powerful and elites are taking advantage of the opportunity to make money.
There are quite a few shell bag trading companies doing this.
They purchased related products from the dragon, and after some processing, they changed the information about the place of origin, and then imported them from Hong Kong Island to various countries in the Lizard Kingdom.
"Many of their big companies and chaebols operate in this way."
"If they don't do this, then they will face a life-and-death test."
Thompson asked, "But why, when I was at Giant Eagle, they said that because of the blockade, the parts for the Giant Dragon couldn't be imported, so the corresponding products were rising in price rapidly?"
The other party smiled and said, "Friend, don't you think about it, if they don't say that, can they make more money?"
"They are just taking advantage of the situation, and they hope to use this to make higher profits."
"I also heard that some companies in the Lizard Kingdom used chips that had their origins changed to pretend they were their own research and development results, and they were asking for huge subsidies from the relevant countries."
“It’s all business!”
Thompson understood: after all this time, their so-called blockade was only intended to make more profits for their company!
Isn’t this too abominable?
Thompson also posted all of this on his Weibo.
Thompson's blog posts caused an uproar.
Especially in Giant Eagle, there was a lot of angry cursing.
Thompson himself stayed in Hong Kong Island for more than a month.
In the process, he published a series of popular blog posts.
His fans are increasing rapidly.
His income is also considerable.
When the Weibo system sensed that he was in Hong Kong Island, it directly sent him Hong Kong dollars.
In just one month, he earned more than 300,000 Hong Kong dollars.
This is definitely a high income.
His Weibo followers have also increased to more than 100 million.
Many netizens from Xifang follow him in the hope of learning more of the truth.
What Thompson didn't expect was that someone from Pangu Technology came to his door.
They told him that his Weibo posts were very good and would help the people of Lizardland to understand the truth.
Therefore, in order to recognize his efforts in this regard, they will give him a basic salary of 2 Hong Kong dollars per month.
When they learned that Thompson did not have a passport and came here illegally, the other party helped Thompson obtain a household registration in Hong Kong Island.
In this way, Thompson now has a legal identity.
Now he can go through the formalities and enter the dragon.
Thompson also said that he studied software engineering and he hoped to get the opportunity to work at Pangu Technology.
The other party said that this was no problem.
However, you still have to take a test.
As long as the test passes, he will get what he wants.
This made Thompson a little teary-eyed.
This is really not easy!
At that time, dozens of friends flew to Hong Kong Island together.
Nowadays, things are very unlucky for everyone else. Most of them cannot find opportunities and have to return empty-handed.
Only he, who became a big V through the Weibo platform, got this opportunity.
Thompson successfully passed the visa and finally entered the Dragon from Hong Kong Island.
He got the opportunity to visit the huge factory and advanced assembly lines here.
He saw that the assembly line here was still busy.
The workers on each assembly line are very motivated and have confident smiles on their faces.
After interviews, he found out that the workers on the assembly lines in these factories all had a very high level of education!
Their academic qualifications are actually all undergraduate electronics majors.
Moreover, their income is quite high. Each person's basic income is nearly 20,000 yuan, and they also receive many benefits and generous year-end bonuses.
Thompson was shocked.
He never expected that the workers on the factory assembly line all had bachelor's degrees and were all engineers.
He didn't even expect that the other party's income was so high?
This salary level is not available at Giant Eagle.
No wonder so many white people want to come here to work.
The income here is high and the prices are quite reasonable, even much lower than in most countries on the Lizard Side.
There is also very complete infrastructure here, and every corner of the city can be easily reached by bus.
In fact, these contents already existed on Weibo.
However, Thompson didn't quite believe it before.
At that time, he still firmly believed in his mind that the giant eagle was the most powerful in the world.
Thompson decided to take the train to the capital.
He hopes to examine the dragon more closely.
He found that the interior of the train he was riding was very luxurious and the train was traveling very fast.
Since it was an inspection, he stayed in several unknown places for a few days along the way.
Thompson found that even these unknown places have developed quite well.
Small buildings have been built in almost all rural areas, and the houses here are all made of reinforced concrete and earth.
This shocked Thompson.
Because all the houses in Giant Eagle are made of wood.
Wooden houses have many disadvantages: they are not strong enough, have poor sound insulation, are easily damaged by termites, have poor wind resistance, and are not able to withstand heavy rain or fire.
However, it has one advantage: fast construction and low cost.
It is precisely because of this advantage that this type of house is spread all over Giant Eagle.
Even most of the rich people live in this kind of houses.
Not to mention the wooden houses, the key point is that this kind of house is very expensive.
The construction cost of the Dragon's rural house is even much lower than that of the Giant Eagle's wooden house.
This is absolutely bizarre.
Thompson also compared the houses in the two countries.
He sighed and said: The Giant Eagle is known as the strongest in the world, but its middle class is not even as good as many of the Dragon's peasants. Why is this?
In this way, Thompson walked and stopped along the way. He shot a lot of videos and did a lot of reflection.
In fact, it is just comparison and reconciliation.
Many people in the English circle of Weibo have done this kind of thing before.
However, it was not done so meticulously.
Most bloggers share pictures of the scenery, connections, infrastructure, etc. on the Julong side.
Even these pictures can cause the Lizard People to exclaim and feel jealous.
Because infrastructure is the face of a country.
Infrastructure is the conscience of a country.
Many countries cannot afford infrastructure construction because it is too expensive.
Building so many roads, constructing so many bridges, and building so many reservoirs requires a huge amount of human and material resources.
Even in Lizard Country, they don't have that much money to invest in infrastructure.
After all, it is a capital-driven country, and even a lot of its infrastructure is dominated by capital.
It is impossible to invest capital in infrastructure that does not make money.
This is also the main reason why the giant eagles quickly degenerated after they quickly compromised with capital and liberalized financial neoliberalism after entering the 80s.
As long as capital is dominant, everything will be oriented towards making maximum profits.
Capital will never rebuild railways that can continue to be used as is.
This could explain the main reason why many railways in Giant Eagle have crooked tracks but are still in use!
Because the total investment in reconstruction is too huge. Capital follows the principle that as long as the cost is not increased, the profit will be increased, so of course it will continue to drag it down.
The same is true for the fact that Giant Eagle’s bridges are in disrepair and its roads are full of potholes but not maintained.
Many of Giant Eagle’s infrastructure projects were actually built during the Great Depression in the 30s when King Luo Ying was in power and launching his New Deal.
Why have there always been periodic capital crises in the past?
Isn't it because the capitalists exploited too much, taking away the money that should belong to the workers, so that the workers had no money to spend. The output of the capitalists' factories and farms could not be sold, so they had to lay off workers. Layoffs made the output even less likely to be purchased, creating a vicious cycle and finally a major crisis?
Therefore, we must never allow greedy big capital to take the lead. As long as capital takes the lead, there will definitely be regular crises!
The way the Lizard powers resolve crises is often to launch wars, causing human tragedies.
As long as you think about this clearly, you can understand why dragons are superior.
Thompson was baptized again along the way.
The comparative Weibo posts he posted also caused a great response.
This caused the people of Giant Eagle to reflect once again.
It can also be said that the people of Giant Eagle have finally realized one thing: it turns out that Giant Eagle has really fallen behind.
However, in just a dozen years, the dragon they looked down upon has become a behemoth.
Thompson's Weibo account is also gaining followers rapidly, and the speed of increase is extremely fast.
By the time he arrived in Beijing, he already had more than 400 million followers on Weibo.
After Thompson arrived in Beijing, what he didn't expect was that someone came to pick him up.
The person who came to pick him up was a staff member of Pangu Technology.
The man smiled and told Thompson that Pangu Technology admired his spirit of reflection, and found that he had previously submitted his resume to Pangu Technology.
Therefore, Pangu Technology is willing to give Thompson a job opportunity.
Thompson was pleasantly surprised.
He didn't expect that he would get a job opportunity offered by Pangu Technology.
This means that he was accepted by the dragon.
This is a great opportunity for many white-skinned Giant Eagles.
In the past few years, it was relatively easy for white elite talents to come to the Dragon.
Nowadays, the dragons have become very picky, and only the top talents who have passed the assessment can be appointed.
Thompson was filled with emotion when he recalled his previous experiences at Giant Eagle.
He thought to himself, I finally got up again with the help of the dragon!
Thompson is not a naive person. He knows that Weibo actually belongs to the giant dragon Pangu Technology Company.
If it weren't for the traffic fee support provided by Weibo, he would not have been able to make a comeback.
When he was in Giant Eagle, he spent a huge amount of money on college and he was burdened with heavy student loans. The student loans with an interest rate of up to 17% were enough to make him completely bankrupt!
Moreover, this huge student loan will tighten around his neck like a snake until he can't breathe.
No country in the world has a student loan as harsh as Giant Eagle! The student loan is actually a loan shark! The interest rate is not only more than 10%, but also compound interest.
It is no wonder that the Giant Eagle was able to save tens of trillions of student loans in its previous life, which is the main reason why many elderly people in their seventies and eighties are still paying off their student loans.
Thompson followed the person who picked him up at the station to Pangu Technology.
The car he was riding in was Julong's own brand, a Hongqi sedan.
He found that the car was really beautiful, the interior was nice, and the handling was first-class.
Thompson sighed: Giant Eagle is the first country to develop the automobile industry!
Why can’t the Giant Eagle’s car catch up with the Giant Dragon’s?
If Giant Eagle completely opens up the automobile market, will Giant Dragon's cars completely crush the world?
They say that the world's best foot basin cars, but look at the various luxurious features on the Julong family's cars! How can foot basin cars compare?
After Thompson asked, he was even more surprised.
Because the other party told him that although this car is considered high-end in Julong, the price is still very affordable, only about 20 RMB.
The most expensive one before was more than 30 RMB.
But the RMB has appreciated to a considerable extent, so the price of cars has actually dropped.
Thompson thought this was very good material for comparison.
When he arrived, he made sure to find a place with internet access and write a Weibo post on his notebook.
The car soon arrived at Pangu Science and Technology Industrial Park.
Today, Pangu Technology has occupied nearly 200 square kilometers.
This is equivalent to the size of a medium-sized city.
The Pangu Science and Technology Industrial Park is indeed planned like a city.
There are commercial areas, residential areas, and various factories.
All in all, the planning is very reasonable.
Thompson marveled.
He had actually seen Pangu Technology’s super factory on Weibo before.
However, watching videos or pictures is completely different from visiting in person!
This feeling is really too shocking.
After arriving at Pangu Technology, another unexpected thing happened to Thompson: he was actually taken directly to Wang Haoran's office.
He actually met Wang Haoran? !
Wang Haoran is a legend all over the world.
His deeds are praised everywhere.
This is a strange man who claims to be able to lift a giant dragon into flight with his own strength.
Thompson was thrilled.
When he saw Wang Haoran, he was shaking a little.
This is mainly because of the unexpected surprises.
"Mr. Wang, I'm honored to meet you!" Thompson tried his best to greet Wang Haoran in the strange Chinese accent he had just learned.
Wang Haoran looked at Thompson and said with a smile, "Mr. Thompson, I often read your Weibo. Your writing is very good. You can always use concise words to make complicated things simple and interesting."
“It’s a remarkable achievement.”
Thompson said gratefully: "Without your microblogging platform, I probably wouldn't be able to survive at all."
"I am very happy that I can write about my achievements on Weibo."
"I am very eager to get down to work as soon as possible. However, my professional ability may have some problems..."
Thompson was very unconfident.
After all, he couldn't even graduate from college.
Wang Haoran waved his hand and said, "You are very smart. Even if your professional ability is slightly lacking due to the problems of your domestic training, it's okay."
"We just need to give you some simple training, and you will be able to pass..."
