While waiting for Ai Xiaoqing to arrive, Wang Ai and Director Jin continued their research.
"Director Jin, can't we ask for help from our superiors? The state has taken the lead in providing nine-year compulsory education. We can't just say that after spending nine years, we finally raised a top student who can go to college, and then just let it go.
Bar."
"I can't say for sure about other places, but our Liaoyang Education Bureau definitely has no money. You see, in the past two or three years, large state-owned enterprises with thousands of people in Liaoyang have collapsed one after another, from Liaoning Ma to Liao Ban,
Pharmaceutical machines, paper machines, radios, Liao Textile, ferroalloys, chemical factories, titanium dioxide factories, that's all I can count, and there are others I don't understand. The Education Bureau's funds are allocated by the Finance Bureau, and the Finance Bureau's money
It comes from tax collection. So many companies have collapsed. Where can we collect taxes? Don’t think that you have received a scholarship of 200,000 yuan to make it look like the Education Bureau still has spare capacity. In fact, you don’t know that your money is from the Ministry of Education.
Wearing a hat. If you don't have this hat, regardless of whether you are the number one scholar in the country or the unprecedented number one scholar in liberal arts who beat science, the Department of Education and the Education Bureau will definitely pick up half of you, and you will be able to get it by then.
Even if 50,000 yuan is a lot, we have to say that we didn’t even reach out in high school.”
Wang Ai opened his mouth and uh-huh, but he didn't expect that he was getting money from the Ministry of Education.
"What about the government? You can always squeeze something out, right? You can't just watch it. They usually attach great importance to education." Wang Ai didn't give up.
"Oh, Wang Ai, why haven't you figured it out?" Director Jin shook his head and said, "I just said that so many state-owned enterprises have closed down, and you haven't figured it out yet. I'm telling you, don't tell others.
, I met my classmate from the municipal government office two days ago, and he told me, do you know what the unemployment rate is in Liaoyang now? Counting unemployed youth, the unemployment rate is 40%! Our urban population only has a total of 500,000 working-age people.
The population is 200,000 without jobs. How can the city government have money to pay for school fees? Workers like Liaoma have been surrounding the city government for half a year. If they had money, the secretary and mayor would rather have this big scar on their face.
Ah? The simplest way is to support someone like You Hong to go to college with a minimum of 40,000 yuan, but this money can evacuate at least 20 laid-off workers. Now when there is a fire everywhere, the municipal party committee and the government can only care about their heads.
, but now you can’t even take care of your head, how do you still expect them to take care of you?”
Wang Ai didn't remember anything else. The data called "40% unemployment rate" was shocking! Later generations set off a wave of revolution in the Arab world and overthrew the governments of more than a dozen countries. Tunisia, the source of the "Arab Spring", had an unemployment rate of only
It’s 35%! What’s more, their unemployment rate is increasing slowly, not suddenly and explosively like Liaoyang. In developed countries in Europe and the United States, it is generally believed that the highest unemployment rate that society can bear is 10%!
"The Chinese people are so great, and the Northeastern people are so honest!" Wang Ai sighed inexplicably.
"What's so great?" Ai Xiaoqing got out of the car and asked while greeting Director Jin with a smile.
"Nothing." Wang Ai waved his hand: "Mom, something happened today. My scholarship of 200,000 yuan was originally intended to help pay for the tuition of a few classmates above the key points in the first high school, but today I came to Lin Jiao's house for the second time.
She told me to see if I could help another classmate who was in junior college."
Ai Xiaoqing nodded: "It's not easy to go to college. It took three years of hard work because I couldn't afford it. It's really a pity. But can you take care of so much with the two hundred thousand?"
Wang Ai smiled bitterly: "So I'm asking you, mom, to help me out. What do you think we should do?"
Ai Xiaoqing frowned and thought: "Our family and Director Jin are not outsiders, so I have nothing to say. Now at home, let's count the stalls I am in charge of. As for the flowers, you know that we just made arrangements with the village this year We signed an agreement and bought the 400 acres of floodplain land along the river in the village. We spent two million this time, and that’s not all. Next, we will put them all into greenhouses. You said we would build the largest one in northern China. The commercial flower planting base needs to invest at least 4 million. The flower area is very tight, and we have already considered whether to get a loan. As for the Internet cafe, we have just entered the five cities of Shenyang, Anshan, Yingkou, Benxi, and Dandong. It is a big city, with one head office and four flagship stores. The scale is much larger than that of Liaoyang. The houses have been bought and the computers have been ordered. The cash flow in this area is also relatively dangerous. Every day, these ten stores in Liaoyang The sales of several stores are barely balanced. Now I am not worried about food, and I still have some spare money. Unfortunately, the total is not large, only about 200,000 yuan a year. I don't know much about the paper factory. You should be able to pull it out, right?"
Director Jin, who was listening in the audience, was fiddling with his glasses. Is this true? Is it true? He turned around and looked at Wang Ai up and down. He didn't look like he was dressed in this outfit. Although he had a car at home and the school knew that Wang Ai had a bodyguard school. I know that, but he doesn't look like a multimillionaire's child. He wears school uniforms, eats in the cafeteria, and has nothing to show for himself except academic performance and football.
Wang Ai didn't notice Director Jin and thought: "The paper mill was originally quite wealthy. Considering that the various systems were developing well, we didn't leave much money. This year we invested 5 million to build it ourselves. A research institute is a critical time for additional investment and has not yet reached the stage of producing results. At the same time, our products have been blocked by the Shandong and Hebei paper bases in Beijing and Tianjin. Although they are small companies, we are just We are one family, but they are very united. I heard that at the beginning of this year, two large paper-making groups were formed, and they are fighting a price war with us in the Beijing-Tianjin market. In northern Hebei, central Inner Mongolia, Beijing, Tianjin, and Tangshan, On the Zhangjiakou line, we have the cost advantage and product quality advantage of large-scale industrial production and excellent worker quality. The two major papermaking groups in Hebei and Shandong have the cost advantage of convenient transportation, so now the two sides are at war. Two days ago I Looking at the report, in order to maintain the price war, the factory has allocated 5 million in funds as reserves, and another 5 million will be prepared to invest at any time."
Ai Xiaoqing doesn't care about factory operations, so he was surprised to hear that his family was at war with small business groups in Shandong and Hebei. "Why do we have to fight them? Won't both sides suffer?"
Wang Ai smiled and said: "That's the doorstep of my home. Baoding, Hebei, Weifang, Shandong, are very close to Beijing and Tianjin. They are reluctant to let go."
"Then can we take a step forward?"
Wang Ai shook his head: "It's not that we haven't tried to sign a peace agreement, but they won't do it. We only have one factory, and they have at least twenty or thirty. We go to their doorstep to sign the peace agreement. To them, it is an alliance under the city.
We have to fight a lose-lose battle and thoroughly compare the strengths of both parties before we can sign an agreement. Otherwise, how can the terms of the agreement be determined? It still has to be based on strength. Besides, if we really want to leave the Beijing-Tianjin market, other people's products will follow Shanhaiguan.
We have touched the three northeastern provinces, and the most important thing is that their product flow must go to Liaoning first. At that time, we will start a price war at home. The Liaoning market is our basic market. Even if foreign investment comes, we cannot let it go, and we have to fight.
Until death."
"If we fight like this, can we beat them?" Ai Xiaoqing was worried.
