672. If finance could solve everything, then all the people rescued on the Titanic would be the rich.
Debate competition scene.
He Fang was caught off guard by Martin's sudden question.
Indeed, the other party's question went straight to the pain point, and it was indeed a bit unkind to use real estate to answer him.
But He Fang had no choice. She could only bite the bullet and answer: "Yes, but it is composed of multiple elements, and there are savings in it."
"Savings are finance." Seeing that He Fang fell into his trap, Martin pursued the victory and said, "And you must have had a loan on your house."
"But...but, in order to continue to grow my wealth, I long for the comprehensive revitalization of the real economy more than anyone else." He Fang began to feel a little unconfident when she spoke, so much so that she didn't even know what she was saying.
But before He Fang could finish her words, Huang Zhifeng sneered and interrupted He Fang's words:
"No, what you said is not accurate. Even if you, He Fang, appear 10,000 times, if you take out a loan to buy a house and sleep at home, the value of the property will increase quickly. Is that good news for China?"
He Fang was speechless for a moment and had no idea how to respond.
But thinking that Wang Lun had mentioned the relevant discussion when practicing with his partner that day, He Fang directly refuted it: "The other debater, maybe you don't know, because this year's real estate industry is undergoing structural adjustment.
China has already taken a back seat.”
"Our Chinese economy is returning to the real economy in an all-round way. Please pay attention to the debaters on the other side..."
"Who told you? Let me ask you who told you?" Seeing that He Fang's momentum had not returned yet, Huang Zhifeng yelled back:
"Classmate He Fang, who told you this? Let me tell you, which industry in China has been suppressed for several years before falling by 1.6%? Is there one? That is real estate."
"Ha ha ha ha."
The audience burst into laughter, and everyone was talking quietly.
Indeed, Gu Chen also noticed Huang Zhifeng's various rhetoric. It can be said that Huang Zhifeng was not less prepared for this debate.
Regarding these economic data, Huang Zhifeng has no intention of talking nonsense.
Real estate has been suppressed for several years before falling by 1.6%, which is indeed rare in the structural industry.
"Please note, please don't make any noise."
Seeing that the atmosphere at the scene was a bit bad, Professor Anderson quickly came over to maintain order and said: "Okay, sorry, it's time for the negative side to ask questions."
Glancing at Gu Chen, who was quiet in the affirmative debate table, Professor Anderson suddenly said: "Next, I would like to invite the second debater from the affirmative side to ask questions to the negative side."
As soon as the words fell, the bustling noise just now suddenly stopped.
Everyone consciously quieted down and all looked at Gu Chen.
At this moment, all Chinese student groups could not help but clenched their fists.
The cooperation between Huang Zhifeng and Martin, who was on the opposing side just now, was so smooth that it made He Fang, the first debater on the affirmative side, unable to resist.
At that time, Gu Chen was as quiet as ever, and seemed to be brewing something.
If Gu Chen was a bit of a blockbuster before, perhaps it was due to the guidance of He Fang, a debater.
But now entering the defense phase, the smell of gunpowder is obviously stronger than before.
At this time, it is time to seize the opponent's weakness, or weakness, and attack.
Whoever is reasonable, or suppresses the other party's debate with a less unreasonable momentum, has a greater chance of winning.
If you can impress the entire audience and judges with a wonderful argument, that would be the best.
In everyone's opinion, the opposition debaters Huang Zhifeng and Martin had a tacit cooperation, and they used extremely suppressive methods to destroy the self-confidence of the affirmative debaters.
As a petite girl, He Fang is obviously not as powerful as others.
In addition, his old partner Wang Lun has entered the hospital, and Gu Chen, who came over temporarily to make up for the situation, still doesn't know how to cooperate.
Therefore, He Fang is now fighting on his own. He has absolutely no control over how Gu Chen should attack and defend, and can only leave it to fate.
At this time, Gu Chen, in the back-and-forth debate between the two parties, quickly used his expert memory to recall all the economic and trade content he had read in the library.
But in the blink of an eye, Gu Chen had absorbed most of the content and could fight at any time.
"Gu...Gu Chen." He saw that he mentioned Gu Chen, but Gu Chen was sitting there blankly, as if he was a little distracted.
Professor Anderson was a little embarrassed, but reminded him again: "Gu Chen, now it's up to you to ask questions and defend the opponent."
"Okay." After Gu Chen came to his senses, he stood up and looked at Huang Zhifeng and Martin in front of him with an indifferent expression.
Other spectators were whispering, as if they were worried about Gu Chen who had deserted just now.
Yuan Shasha said a little uneasily: "What's wrong with Senior Brother Gu? He deserted at this time?"
It feels like the current Gu Chen looks like he deserted in class and was caught by the teacher.
This is a bit embarrassing...
Lu Weiwei frowned slightly and said: "Don't panic, be safe, Junior Brother Gu can do it."
Officer Wang glanced at Lu Weiwei.
He didn't say anything. It was useless. He might as well just be a quiet member of the public.
Officer Wang knows that what is supposed to come will always come. When there is an avalanche, every snowflake is bravely heading to the end of the world.
Gu Chen has been brewing for so long. According to Officer Wang's understanding of Gu Chen, there should be nothing going on without Huang Zhifeng and Martin.
"Well, I just saw the opponent's debater giving an example, and he was talking about the former Soviet Union." Gu Chen raised his head and looked forward and said, "But what I want to give an example more is Germany."
Huang Zhifeng and Martin looked at each other, as if they felt that Gu Chen was a little interesting.
When Professor Anderson saw this, he was worried that Gu Chen would not be suitable for the defense session, so he couldn't help but remind him: "Gu Chen, you can express your thoughts."
"Okay." Gu Chen nodded silently, turned his eyes back to Huang Zhifeng and Martin, and said, "You want to know why Deutschland was able to maintain its own immunity during the entire financial crisis?"
The scene suddenly became quiet...
Everyone looked at each other and seemed to be thinking.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Gu Chen stretched out his right index finger and directly gave the answer: "The most important point is to create a country."
"That's good." Just when Gu Chen finished speaking, Lu Weiwei couldn't help but said loudly.
Gu Chen's discussion was brief and precise, directly explaining everything with one fact.
Soon, voices supporting Gu Chen began to pour in from the audience.
Many professors from the School of Economics also nodded to each other to express their approval of Gu Chen.
Gu Chen looked at Huang Zhifeng and Martin on the other side and said: "So, in a more general sense, what do your fellow debaters think of the establishment of a manufacturing country for the development of the German economy?"
"this……"
They had never thought that Gu Chen would say such a thing before. Huang Zhifeng and Martin, who were a little careless, suddenly fell into a brief pause in their thinking.
The two briefly gathered together, and Huang Zhifeng stood up first and said: "I think there are two factors. First, Germany's economic size is incomparable to China's."
"Today we are discussing what it means to build a country. For example, in China, in the process of moving from a planned economy to a market economy, what is our foundation?"
"In this process, it is not about producing a specific manufacturing product, but that we can grasp the essence of the market economy."
"Well, Germany, its economic size is incomparable to China. I think this is the first point."
"What about the second point?" Seeing that his question elicited so much discussion from Huang Zhifeng, Gu Chen was not impatient and asked again.
"This...this second point." Huang Zhifeng was speechless for a moment, as if the explanation just now caused him to fall into a temporary mental disorder.
He quickly glanced at Martin next to him...
Martin stood up and said directly and seamlessly: "Don't think that Germany's finance is underdeveloped. You think that Germany's manufacturing industry is developed, but that does not prove that Germany's financial industry is underdeveloped."
"In fact, in Germany today, even if all its manufacturing industries disappear overnight, it has a strong financial industry to support it."
"In fact, it is easy for it to recover. This is the second point."
Martin is indeed a top student in the School of Economics, and has indeed made great achievements in mastering information about European countries.
Therefore, Gu Chen's problems could not trouble him.
Gu Chen saw that Martin's answer was quite satisfactory, so he added: "We have been talking about the manufacturing and financial industries before, but have you considered other special factors?"
"Gu Chen, what do you mean?" Professor Anderson asked curiously.
"International public health emergency, infectious disease." Gu Chen said.
As soon as he finished speaking, the scene suddenly started to boil.
Everyone looked at each other in confusion, and seemed to feel that Gu Chen's argument was a bit eccentric.
Aren’t we talking about manufacturing and finance? How come it’s related to a public health incident? What does this have to do with infectious diseases?
At the judges' table, many professors and experts from the School of Economics also spread their hands to each other, expressing that they did not understand the significance of Gu Chen's argument.
Huang Zhifeng sneered and reminded: "I need to remind the other debater that we are discussing manufacturing and finance today. Does your mention of public health incidents have anything to do with this?"
"That's why I say you are still too young." Gu Chen said one sentence, and instantly knocked Huang Zhifeng back.
Huang Zhifeng looked around, looking a little embarrassed. He reached out to Gu Chen and asked, "Then let the opponent's debater talk about it."
Gu Chen crossed his arms and stared at Huang Zhifeng with the eyes of an interrogator. Huang Zhifeng was a little surprised and did not even dare to look directly into Gu Chen's eyes.
"No matter how well you praise the financial foundation of the country, it only happened when the economy is improving."
"But have you ever thought about how you would respond when the world begins to face an international public health emergency?"
"In other words, you can settle everything with money? If so, what exactly will you do?"
"This..." Huang Zhifeng was dumbfounded when he was asked on the spot.
For himself, he had not prepared any explanatory materials in this area, so Gu Chenjian took a wrong approach, which obviously caught the opponent off guard.
Huang Zhifeng looked at Martin next to him, and Martin stammered: "This...this problem, I think, can be settled quickly if the country has enough financial advantages."
"For example, as you mentioned about infectious diseases just now, you can use your finances to purchase protective equipment, such as masks, face shields, protective clothing, and some testing reagents. If you have money, these are not a problem."
"My fellow debater, are you kidding me?" Seeing Martin's nonsense, Gu Chen retorted mercilessly: "It was you who said before that in countries like the United States, the manufacturing industry has been declining in the past 30 years."
"The United States doesn't even have a TV production line. Soon even the car production line will be finished. There won't even be a camera manufacturer."
"But you are right to emphasize the dominance of the US dollar. It is still very powerful and can still use US dollar finance to control the world's factory."
"You can even get the maximum profits from production factories and companies around the world and become the major shareholders of these factories."
"On the surface, this seems to be correct, but have you ever thought about when an international public health emergency breaks out and a large amount of protective equipment is needed."
"But there is no one, or only a few, companies in the country that produce protective equipment. What should you do?"
"Or, if you call your foreign factory and tell it, hey, you are no longer allowed to sell protective materials to others, you can only give them to me. Do you think they will agree?"
"this……"
Seeing that Gu Chen was working steadily, he pressed forward step by step with this topic.
Huang Zhifeng and Martin, who had not considered this factor at all before, suddenly felt overwhelmed.
Professor Anderson also nodded silently after hearing what Gu Chen said. He strongly agreed with Gu Chen's statement.
It can be said that Gu Chen cleverly avoided the economic knowledge that students in the School of Economics know, and instead introduced the topic to public health issues that are relatively unfamiliar to everyone.
As a result, Huang Zhifeng and Martin, who had previously prepared a large amount of economic data, suddenly felt like their fists were hitting cotton with no use.
Moreover, Gu Chen’s counterattack was also very precise, directly setting an objective international public health emergency as the background.
In this way, the discussion on whether to build a country based on manufacturing or finance is obviously biased towards the positive side.
It can be said that Gu Chen opened up a new battlefield, jumping directly out of the economic field that Huang Zhifeng and Martin were good at, and letting the other party fall into the "trap" he had set.
He Fang on the side was also very happy, thinking to herself, so you are like this Gu Chen?
I knew that I had an absolute disadvantage in economics, but now I extended my argument to public health, which turned out to be my advantage.
Seeing that Huang Zhifeng and Martin were still unable to answer, He Fang also beat the loser and asked directly: "Friends on the other side of the debate, you just said a lot, and it all happened when everything was peaceful and the economy was improving.
"
"But if there is a disaster, do you think finance can solve everything? If so, then the people rescued on the Titanic should all be rich people, but in fact this is not the case."
"We all know that those who are truly rescued are often those with life-saving equipment, and money is not so important in the face of disaster, right?"
"Uh... this." Huang Zhifeng was also panicking at this moment.
This question is too difficult...
The questions raised by Gu Chen and He Fang were very tricky and mean.
It can be said that Gu Chen brought everyone's thinking into an environment that was very beneficial to Zhengfang.
The positive side now has an absolute advantage.
The scene also became a little noisy because the opposing side was unable to refute. Many people were whispering and seemed to be discussing among themselves.
"That's right. If an international public health emergency breaks out, wouldn't it be a big disaster if there are no companies in your country that can produce protective equipment?"
"Yeah, who would talk to you about finance at that time? The stock market probably collapsed, and circuit breaker became the norm."
"If there were manufacturing industries at that time, including those that produced ventilators, masks, protective clothing, face shields, and forehead thermometers, then it would have been possible to get through the difficulties. If not, it would have been dangerous.
Already."
"It's terrible. The argument made by this Chinese police officer is really cruel."
"Isn't this argument too bullying? If such a disaster really happens and a country cannot produce even the most basic protective masks, wouldn't it be doomed?"
"That's right, do you expect to spend tons of cash and go to the airport to grab masks at several times the price? Even if you get it, it will be a drop in the bucket."
…
Seeing that everyone at the scene was talking a lot, and even many experts and professors began to discuss and explore, Gu Chen said directly and calmly:
"Yes, when this kind of disaster occurs, it is the time that best tests the way to build a country."
"When you need masks, ventilators, and protective clothing, your country can deliver these required protective materials to the front line in the shortest time and with the highest efficiency, and when the materials are needed to fully protect frontline personnel, it can be said that your
The foundation is solid.”
"On the contrary, when this kind of disaster suddenly strikes, and you are still concerned about your stock market and you don't have surgical masks yet, do you think finance can still dominate everything? Do you think you can still work around if you have money at that time?"
"I'm telling you, it can't be done, and there's nothing we can do about it."
"Because you have to know that when a disaster strikes, all countries will take the lead in ensuring their own supply, and this will be reflected in the creation of a nation."
"Even if you talk about financial advantages, fine, this time you spent three times the price to grab masks from other countries' airports."
"Next time you spend ten times the price to grab a ventilator from an airport in another country."
"What about next time? When global supplies are in short supply, how much can you expect to grab?"
"If not, when you choose the patient to die, do you have to remove the ventilator of the older patient in exchange for the recovery of the younger person? Wouldn't this be too cruel?"
The scene suddenly fell silent.
The audience who had just cheered for the opposing side were now in a pessimistic mood by Gu Chen.
Everyone was silent, everyone was reflecting, and wondering why?
"That's right." Seeing that the opposing debaters Huang Zhifeng and Martin were still unable to answer, Gu Chen said directly: "When manufacturing companies for these materials bloom all over the country, and when all industrial projects are fully equipped."
"You can produce as much as you want. If you want a large hospital with negative pressure wards, fine, I'll mobilize all the manufacturing companies and deliver it to you in ten days."
"You are afraid that there are not enough protective clothing. Well, then wear a few more sets. If two sets are not enough, we will use three sets. If you are afraid that a medical N95 mask is not safe, don't be afraid. Then wear another surgical mask."
"If one pair of sterile gloves is not enough, just two pairs. If there are not enough ventilators, I will give you as many as you need."
"In short, as long as the people need something, local enterprises will produce it for you, no matter how much you want."
"Under such circumstances, is it a bit hypocritical for you to talk about building a country through finance? Can the stock market build a country?"
