In fact, no one naturally likes to tighten their belts and live a life. In fact, in the past hundred years, I have been afraid of being hungry and poor.
To this day, I still can't bear to part with anything, for fear that I will suddenly have a hard life again.
But the situation has long been different. Du Fei really can't imagine that today he has big mushrooms, Dongfeng-5, H-8 bombers, and mushroom submarines... Why can't he live with these big killers in his hands?
A good life? Why are those bullshit invaders and colonists so fat that they can only eat one and throw away two, but we ordinary people have to suffer and starve?
Originally, I had enough to protect myself, but I had no ability to fight out. I had no ability to fight out.
The situation is different now. After taking over Nanyang, the food problem has been completely solved. Huaguo has become qualified to live a life without having to tighten his belt as before.
It’s time for our people to experience the happiness brought by “surplus” and “waste”.
After listening to Du Fei's fallacy, Dad Zhu thought quickly and pondered the profound meaning.
Obviously Du Fei did not really advocate waste. Dad Zhu grasped the key points and said in a deep voice: "You want to... liberalize the supply of social consumer goods?"
Although the economy has improved in recent years, the supply of social consumer goods is still under control. In addition to food and clothing, many other things still need to be purchased with tickets.
Du Fei nodded and said: "Dad, you just said that we found that economic growth is slowing down. In my opinion, if we want to maintain high growth, it is time to let go of consumption. Our consumption level is too low. Logically speaking, we should
With the level of wages and benefits, there is no need to save money at all, and you can even consume in advance through loans..."
At present, workers are the owners of the factory. Once they become a worker, as long as they do not break the law, they have lifelong tenure and there is no unemployment problem at all.
Du Fei continued: "However, the actual situation is that our consumption has always been maintained at a very low level. The three carriages of economic growth are investment, exports, and consumption. In recent years, we have relied on investment to drive exports, and exports have been driven by external factors.
Although environmental restrictions have opened up gaps in Nanyang, they are far from being a support and all that is left is consumption."
Dad Zhu frowned and smoked. Regarding the troika Du Fei mentioned, there were not many new ideas.
At previous economic work conferences, someone also made a similar statement.
It's just that under the current circumstances, liberalizing consumption is not a trivial matter and will bring many unpredictable impacts.
But if we do not let go and continue to maintain the status quo, we must tolerate a slowdown in economic growth.
What is even more worrying is that once the investment drive becomes unsustainable, the Balbo War ends, the arms trade stops, oil profits will also be significantly reduced, and economic development is likely to stagnate or even reverse.
How to choose?
This is no longer something Du Fei can decide, not even Zhu's father can decide.
Regarding this issue, we must discuss it collectively and finally come up with a more prudent plan.
It was enough for Du Fei to just express his thoughts.
However, in Du Fei's view, the subsequent liberalization of consumption is the general trend. After all, a large number of factories have been invested and built in recent years, and the production capacity of various industries will soon reach a higher level.
When foreign trade exports are restricted, if consumption is not relaxed, products will inevitably be unsalable, and no one can bear the consequences.
Following this question, Du Fei raised another issue, which was to raise wages.
"Dad, if you want to stimulate consumption, inflation and wage increases must be considered in advance."
Dad Zhu's expression became more serious.
In the eyes of this generation, inflation is not a good thing, and it is even easy to think of Principal Chang’s legal currency.
But from a dialectical perspective, nothing is absolutely good or absolutely bad.
In order to stimulate consumption right now, inflation is a necessary tool.
The current bank interest rate is not as high as it was in the world before Dufy's time in the same era.
In the world before Dufy's time travel, due to the lack of construction funds, interest rates were very high in order to raise more deposits.
Even now, bank time deposit interest rates are above 5%. Without inflation, people will just deposit their money in banks and wait to earn interest.
Once inflation starts, it will definitely cause a negative impression. After all, the money in everyone's hands is worthless, and no one will be happy if it is left alone.
Therefore, there must be a hedging method, which is to increase wages.
Inflation reduces past wealth, while wage increases increase expectations for the future.
Existing wealth is shrinking, but future income can be expected, and consumption will naturally be boosted.
…
After coming out of Dad Zhu's side, Du Fei couldn't help but take a deep breath.
In November, the cold air is inhaled along the nose and into the lungs, making the whole person feel energetic instantly.
It will be 1980 in one month!
The 1980s was a time of special significance in Du Fei's memory.
But in this world, the 1980s must be completely different from the 1980s in his memory.
This time, we can face capital with more dignity.
Ride back to the fire equipment company.
The road was being widened nearby, and Du Fei got off the car when there was still some distance to go and walked back to his unit.
I have become accustomed to taking cars in the past few years, and it has been a long time since I walked down the street in front of the fire equipment company, so it feels a bit strange.
I don’t know when the entire street was rebuilt, from the original dilapidated cement road to a black asphalt road.
In order to widen the road, the street trees have been removed.
Looking further along the street, there is a half-built construction site, which is the family building of some unit...
Du Fei withdrew his gaze and stepped up the steps.
The door has been renovated and painted with bright red cinnabar paint. The door originally opened by the fire equipment company on the side has been sealed.
Du Fei walked into the main door, but there was no one inside.
The scientific researchers who were originally at the Zhonglu Institute have long since moved to the new building of the Fire Protection University.
Currently, only the company's administrative department remains here.
Du Fei walked inside, planning to follow the Moon Gate back to the office.
A figure came out from inside and said "Yeah" when he saw Du Fei: "Manager!"
"Xiaobai~" Du Fei responded with a smile. The person opposite was wearing a sky blue woolen coat and holding a document bag. It was Zhou Xiaobai.
Zhou Xiaobai, who was born in 1951, is no longer the little girl she was back then. She has long lost her childishness at the age of 27 or 28. She married Zhang Haiyang without any trouble three years ago and gave birth to a fat boy the following year.
Du Fei was not in the capital at that time, and Zhu Ting attended the wedding on his behalf.
On the other hand, Zhong Yuemin also got married early in Danbei and married the daughter of Li Yuanchao's third uncle.
All bonds end before they begin. They each have their own lives.
After saying hello, Du Fei walked inside and entered along the original front yard without meeting anyone else.
Until he came to the inner courtyard, he saw Shen Jianing about to go out, when he saw Du Fei paused and said, "I'm just looking for you."
Du Fei laughed and called "Sister" and went to the office with Shen Jianing.
Secretary Zhang who was guarding here heard the movement and immediately came out to greet him.
Shen Jianing sat down, not waiting for Secretary Zhang to serve tea, and said angrily: "You are responsible for killing and not burying!"
Du Fei smiled and said: "Sister, who made you angry?"
Shen Jianing rolled his eyes: "Who can make me angry, but you! That tractor and tricycle plan, you just mentioned it and treated it like a hands-off shopkeeper, and you just wanted to use me as a coolie~"
Du Fei was stunned for a moment before he realized what he was doing and said with a smile: "Hey, what do I mean?"
Shen Jianing said: "I am the one who made the fuss~"
At this time, Secretary Zhang brought the tea. Du Fei stood up, took it and put it in front of Shen Jianing: "Sister, look at you, why are you so anxious?"
Shen Jianing rolled his eyes again, took out a piece of information from his bag, threw it to Du Fei and said, "Let's take a look and see if it works."
Du Fei didn't care about the other party's attitude, so he took it and looked at it carefully.
No wonder Shen Jianing was angry, Du Fei was really busy in the past month or so and couldn't see anyone.
Prior to this, he had just discussed with Shen Jianing that he planned to separate an agricultural machinery factory from the tractor factory to specialize in small agricultural machinery needed in rural areas, walking tractors, diesel tricycles, and mini cars similar to Wuling.
Du Fei previously talked about the issue of popularizing cars in cities and believed that the time was not yet mature.
But correspondingly, he believes that bringing agricultural machinery to the countryside can be implemented immediately.
Although farmers today have no money and cannot afford various agricultural machinery, they have no problem buying agricultural machinery on a village basis.
However, the current situation may undergo new changes. Once the consumption pattern is to be started, it must not only be in cities, but also in rural areas.
According to the current situation, entering the consumption mode will inevitably lead to inflation.
There are almost no savings in rural areas, and inflation will have little impact on this aspect, but the subsequent pressure on life will inevitably increase.
In this regard, the government must provide subsidies, on the one hand in terms of food prices, and on the other hand, in-kind subsidies.
Provide physical support through financial support, or loans, and the most important way is to implement this kind of small agricultural machinery into villages.
There are nearly five million natural villages in the whole country. Each village has one tractor, which equals five million units, plus tricycles and other agricultural machinery.
Without anything else, this alone will be able to boost economic growth by at least one percentage point every year in the next three to five years.
When Du Fei finished explaining the new situation, Shen Jianing couldn't help but be surprised.
"Five million tractors!" Shen Jianing gulped. The size of the tractor factory of the fire equipment company, even if all other projects were stopped and all efforts were made to produce small tractors, it would only be able to produce 100,000 units a year at most.
It’s not certain whether a factory can produce one million units.
After hearing about this situation, Shen Jianing's mood turned from gloomy to sunny.
…
At the same time, far away in America, at a vacation home in Florida.
Nico and Commander Ford were lying on the lounge chairs under the awning. The sun, the beach, and the sea breeze were blowing in their faces, making them extremely comfortable.
But at this time, the two of them were not in such a relaxed mood.
This 30th anniversary review ceremony brought a huge impact to the whole world, including America.
Ford took a sip of the juice with ice and said solemnly: "Recently, some people are exaggerating the threat of flowers and fruits..."
Nico snorted, of course he knew, and even knew who was behind that person.
After he stepped down, Rockefeller tolerated it for a while and finally started to take action.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Ford next to him.
This successor he carefully selected was not as obedient as before after two years as commander-in-chief.
This was all within his expectation. Power has always been a wonderful thing, and equally wonderful is time. They can change many things. Now the two are combined...
Nico knew that there were some things where one could not rely on character and more powerful measures had to be taken.
Just like this time, if Ford is willing to help, it will not let this situation ferment.
Exaggerating the threat of flowers and fruits now is tantamount to fundamentally denying Nico's strategy and his greatest political legacy.
Needless to say, those Rockefellers knew how to deal with justice very well, and they were attacking Nico's vitals.
Faced with this attack, Nico could not retreat and had no room for concession.
Once you retreat, there is an abyss behind you.
Nico moved his body and looked at the half-white chest hair swaying in the wind. He suddenly said: "What do you think about inviting them to join NATO?"
Ford was stunned, and for a moment he thought he had heard wrong.
It wasn't long before he realized that Nico was not joking. He couldn't help but push himself up and sit upright and look over: "Richard, are you kidding~"
Nico glanced at him, shrugged and said, "Are you kidding? No, I think this is good. In President Roosevelt's plan, we and Huaguo were allies, but now there is just a slight change."
Ford looked helpless, thinking, is this a little change?
Roosevelt faced Principal Chang at the beginning, who are they facing now?
It's not the same thing at all.
But that's not important. What's important is that Nico said this, and he wasn't joking.
Obviously he has made up his mind to defend the political structure he established... no matter the cost!
Ford couldn't help but take a deep breath. Nico's determination and toughness made him feel troubled.
Nico's words were obviously not impromptu, but after careful consideration, he continued: "Jara, this is good for us all, especially you! If you get this done, you will become a great figure who has left an important mark in history.
Commander."
Ford pursed his lips, this sentence touched him a little.
He is an ambitious man. From the Revolutionary War to the present, America has produced dozens of great commanders, but only a few of them can be truly remembered.
When he achieves this position, of course he is not willing to become anonymous.
So when Nico said this, his heart froze and his brain thought quickly.
I quickly came to the conclusion that Nico was right!
If he wants to leave a mark in history, he does not need to do anything outstanding, but he must live in a turbulent era and accomplish something of iconic significance.
For example, Nico ended the Vietnam War strongly and seized the opportunity at a critical moment to visit Hua. In a sense, he changed the overall situation.
So, if during his term, Nico’s proposal just now is implemented, what will be the result?
Thinking of this, Ford couldn't help but his heart beat faster.
