Chapter 449 [Commodity hegemony comparable to dollar hegemony]
An Qilong nodded slightly without saying a word. Ningzhou City, where he is located, is the most typical example. Except for the new financial center in Ningzhou, which is on par with Shanghai and Shenzhen, the property prices in other places in the city have not risen much at all, and even have not increased at all.
It failed to beat inflation.
Therefore, the happiness index of young people in Ningzhou City is far higher than that in other cities. Some young people in Ningzhou were interviewed on the street about their views on housing prices. Basically, they had no complaints, and they were quite relaxed when talking about houses. The common answers were:
Although housing prices are not low, you can still afford them with hard work. Compared with other first- and second-tier cities in Ningzhou, housing prices are not rising, so be content.
It is a fact recognized by the whole society that Ningzhou City can maintain the current rapid economic development and public budget expenditures to ensure the follow-up upgrade of infrastructure without increasing housing prices, relying on the tax revenue of Tiansheng Capital.
As soon as Tiansheng Capital's interim results came out, Ningzhou Municipal Government was also very excited. This means that the municipal finance will receive more than 100 billion from Tiansheng Capital alone in the first half of the year. Tiansheng Capital is not a high-tech company.
The company is a non-bank financial group company, so there are no tax exemptions and exemptions. Lu Ming does not ask for tax exemptions, and he has taken the initiative to bear the city's fiscal expenditures.
It is no exaggeration to say that what Ningzhou City is worried about right now is that it has so much money that it doesn’t know how to spend it. In the first half of the year, the tax revenue contributed by one Tiansheng Capital company was twice that of all other companies in the city. This was even before Anshi Group was also cited.
When included, it can be said to be quite an exaggeration, and it is a completely enviable rhythm for first-tier cities.
Mr. An took a sip of tea, then lowered his head and thought for a while, then looked at Lu Ming and said, "I still agree with you on the real estate aspect, but why should we get rid of the cultural tourism aspect?"
Mr. An really doesn't understand this.
Lu Mingyan replied concisely and concisely: "My reason is that global climate abnormalities are intensifying."
An's father and his son thought that Lu Ming would have a high opinion, but when they heard such an answer, they were dumbfounded. They were extremely confused on the spot. What kind of reason could this be...
In fact, Lu Ming also wanted to tell them the real reason. The flash crash of the cultural tourism industry was the super black swan of 2020, and a bat brought down the whole world.
But Lu Ming can never explain the real logic of taking action in the cultural tourism industry. Regarding this black swan, Lu Ming can't even intervene. It's not because he doesn't want to but because he can't, because once the intervention comes, the West will insist that it was done by you.
But it's all over. Not only will it bring huge trouble to itself, but it will also bring an unpredictable international crisis to the country.
According to ancient sayings, this is called leaking the secrets of heaven. Heaven's secrets cannot be leaked, otherwise you will be punished by God.
What has happened will happen again.
History will repeat itself in cycles, but it will not simply repeat itself.
However, Lu Ming's suggestion was still very important to An and his son. Even if they couldn't figure it out for a while, it didn't stop them from taking Lu Ming's suggestion seriously.
At the end, An Jinhong looked at Lu Ming doubtfully and said: "If I sell these two, it will free up more than 100 billion in funds. What industry should I get into? I won't leave it to my brother to trade in stocks, right?
.”
Not to mention, if there is really no place to go, it would be a good idea to just leave it to Lu Ming to trade stocks.
Lu Ming couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "I can accept other people's money, but I won't accept any of your money."
An's father and son couldn't help laughing, and his brother-in-law immediately pretended to be dissatisfied and said: "Brother, I have to criticize you for not taking care of your own people."
It’s all a joke. An’s Group will definitely not do this. Mr. An is not such a uneducated person. An’s Group is an entity and it is the duty to do a good job in industry. Even Tiansheng Capital does the same and does a good job in finance.
When investing, don’t get involved in entities. Only in this way can you make it bigger and be allowed to make it bigger.
Although Lu Ming has invested in a large number of companies, more than 90% of them are financial strategic investments and he does not seek control of the companies. This is very critical.
After the episode, Lu Ming analyzed: "In the future, the domestic economic driver will not rely on the property market, but the 6% growth must be maintained. This faces a huge problem, which industries should be used to drive economic development? I mean high-tech, only high-tech.
High-tech industries have high added value, and only high-tech industries can capture the growth data of the real estate market. Specifically, I suggest that you go into the three major industries of semiconductors, new energy, and photovoltaics for in-depth layout."
Upon hearing this, Mr. An said with a wry smile: "Xiao Ming, this old guy like me really doesn't understand technology, especially chips, and I can't do it."
Lu Ming smiled and said: "You have to read it even if you don't understand it. This is the law. Only by respecting the law can we survive for a long time."
An Qilong also smiled and said: "But with you here, I feel more confident."
Lu Ming said: "Old man, I remember that there is an Australian lithium mine under the name of Anshi Group. This is a good thing. You may have to keep it and don't sell it. If you want to sell it, sell it to me and I will pay you a premium.
"
An Jinhong, who was standing next to him, suddenly laughed and said: "You have said so. It's a beautiful idea. I will definitely not sell you out, haha."
This is equivalent to Mingpai being very optimistic about the new energy industry. Although the market is ridiculing that new energy is in deep water, there was boss Jia in the past, and now the first brother has been buried, but An and his son found that he was not worried at all.
Lu Ming said in a deep voice: "The focus is still on the semiconductor chip. It is best to lay out the third generation semiconductor. Compared with the first generation silicon-based semiconductor, the third generation silicon carbide has a large bandgap and high thermal conductivity. Silicon
Genes are widely used in various fields of semiconductors because of their simple structure, large reserves in nature, and relatively easy preparation. Among them, integrated circuits that process information are the main ones, but in the future, third-generation semiconductors will definitely have more potential."
Although Mr. An didn't understand, he couldn't help but nodded. With Lu Ming as his adviser, the old man was really tempted to get involved in high technology. He also knew that it would be difficult to remain conservative for a long time.
On the importance of having a strong foreign aid.
At this time, Lu Ming suddenly looked at the father and son and said: "I don't know if you two have paid attention to the global market structure. Currently, petrodollars have actually shown signs of being linked to domestic commodities, but it is very secretive. It is almost impossible not to delve into it in depth.
Discover this detail.”
The two of them felt strange and confused when they heard this.
Anshi Group does not have global business, so it does not pay much attention to the international situation. It pays more attention to domestic policies, because this is the key to affecting Anshi Group.
Lu Ming continued: "What does it mean that domestic commodities have become anchors and endorsements of the U.S. dollar? That means that in the future, only if our country recognizes the U.S. dollar, can countries around the world use U.S. dollars to buy our goods. If we don't recognize it, a large number of
Dollars can’t buy enough things in the world.”
An Jinhong said in astonishment: "Brother, what you said is so shocking that it will never stop. It is simply unbelievable and unheard of."
Lu Ming, who had the foresight, knew very well that the black swan broke out in 2020, which directly led to the shutdown of global industry, and life-saving commodities and materials could not be produced. Only domestic products in the world could be produced, and what is even more crazy was that they could provide products for the world.
Supply is an absolute seller's market.
Even without the influence of the black swan, it is still a trend, but the black swan flaps its wings and accelerates the process. Because the domestic industrial system can produce cheap, high-quality and environmentally friendly products, to put it bluntly, it is excellent.
The competitiveness is there.
Lu Ming looked at An Jinhong and said: "Do you two know what this means? It means that if we say that US dollars cannot buy domestic goods, for example, we specify that only euros can be used to buy our goods, the status of the euro will be straightened.
Soaring, if we say we don’t accept dollars and euros, then Europe and the United States will be finished soon, and they will soon have commodity shortages and hyperinflation, which will severely impact their economies.”
The United States can print money like crazy, and their people can still afford cheap goods. Wear a shirt once and then throw it away. This is not the operation of the rich, but the daily life of ordinary people in the United States. It relies on Greater China for its
Provide high-quality and low-cost products.
In fact, the words "good quality and low price" itself are against the rules. Good quality must be expensive. The reason why it is cheap is that domestic enterprises give away profits at the expense, and furthermore, workers give away profits, so wages hardly increase, not even a penny.
There is no such thing as high-quality and cheap, but someone is paying the price.
Lu Ming said methodically: "In this trade war, why is it that our negotiations are obviously getting tougher than before? It will only get tougher in the future! What do you rely on? It's not real estate or currency, these are useless.
, relying on the country's manufacturing capabilities and a strong industrial system. The industrial system is the way to win. The industrial system of the entire industry chain is a strategic killer weapon that can allow us to have a currency hegemony that is no less than the U.S. dollar.
commodity hegemony."
"This kind of commodity hegemony will definitely be reflected in the future. So by that time, we will have the final say on what currency we accept, not foreigners, because only I can provide the goods you need, and I am the only seller in the world.
, of course I have the final say, we are not Iraq, I said, can the United States dare to take action without using US dollars? So under such a big framework, what should be done, I think you don’t need me to say anything more."
