Rebirth of India: Superior

Fu Sha asked with some confusion: "Mr. Pandit, why do you have such worries? I feel that your two branches are running very well."

Shakru sighed, and then explained: "It looks good now, but now China's labor costs are getting higher and higher, and it is foreseeable that they will rise in the next few years, but my products cannot rise with it. prices, which leads to lower and lower profits, coupled with the lack of foresight. I am worried that the patent protection period of my Weldon will be up in a few years. At that time, the only trump card I can use to compete with other similar products is the reputation of being the first to move forward and cost reduction, and the Chinese labor market is currently And the future situation is destined to give up these two branches sooner or later. "

Although as a Chinese, Fu Sha did not want Shaklu to withdraw from the Chinese market, but as a businessman, he knew that Shaklu's logic was correct, so he suggested: "Then you can withdraw the production base In India, I feel that labor costs here are much lower than those here.”

Shakru said with a wry smile: "Indian labor is cheap, but the quality is too poor, otherwise why would I go all the way to China to open a factory."

Fu Sha nodded and said: "Well, this is because the quality of Chinese workers is really not comparable to many places in the world. Hey, I heard that the quality of workers in North Korea is good and the wages are very low. Otherwise You go and see.”

Hearing this, Shakru couldn't help but look up at Pan Lei, who was sitting aside in embarrassment. Pan Lei frankly told the story about how he had misled Shakru last time and almost deceived him. Sha was also a little embarrassed: "Oh, I really didn't know there was such a thing here. Lao Pan, don't misunderstand me. You also know that I don't talk clearly."

Since Pan Lei could tell the story, he naturally wouldn't care about Fu Sha, so the two had a glass of wine and the matter was over. After a while, Fu Sha suddenly suggested: "Mr. Pandit, actually There is another place in Asia that is very suitable for big entrepreneurs like you to invest and build factories.”

"Oh, where do you want to suggest?" Shakru asked curiously.

“The Davao City of the Philippines!”

When he heard about the Philippines, Shakru couldn't help but frown: "The Philippines, is it suitable for investment? In my impression, it seems to be a mess."

Shakru is not talking nonsense. The Philippines is indeed a peaceful place. Abu Sayyaf, armed forces, pirates, and fugitives from all over the world (due to its geographical location, Malacca can easily be smuggled into and smuggled to other countries, so There are many fugitives here)

Some people even say that the Philippines is a place where you can die for no apparent reason. The Philippines seems to have never been able to protect the personal safety of its citizens. Rich and powerful people can form their own underworld and have their own private armed forces. Anyone you dislike can be kidnapped in broad daylight. The Philippines has always been known as the "kidnapping capital of the world". There is always more chaos. Gonzales, the national security adviser to former Philippine President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo, said kidnapping has become a "cottage industry" in the southern Philippines. Hundreds of kidnappings occur every year.

Especially in Shakru's memory, in 2010, a tourist bus carrying 25 people (including 22 Hong Kong passengers) was hijacked by a former Philippine police officer near the Quirino Grandstand in downtown Manila, Philippines. Although he was rescued in the end, However, eight tourists died and six were injured. What is even more unbelievable is that the Philippines not only refused to apologize, but the Philippine consul in Hong Kong accused Hong Kong people of being inconsiderate.

How dare he, Shakru, invest in such a place? Perhaps seeing Shakru's doubts, Fu Sha quickly explained: "It is true that there is chaos in the Philippines, but this Davao City is completely different from other cities in the Philippines. It is known as the safest and safest city in the Philippines. Stable city.

In the past, Davao City, like other Philippine cities, was plagued by gangs and extremely chaotic law and order. However, since Mayor Duterte came to power, he has taken a series of powerful measures. After more than ten years of governance, Davao City is now It has become the safest city in the entire Philippines, and no vicious group dares to go to Davao.

Under this situation, many foreign capitals have invested in and built factories in Davao. The plywood factory there is quite famous, and the high-tech development is also good, and it is known as the Silicon Bay. "

Since Shakru came here relatively early, he did not catch up with Duterte's election as president, massacre of drug dealers, and a series of wonderful stories in the international community, so he didn't know anything about this iron-fisted president, so he asked curiously. He said: "There is such a mayor, very interesting, very interesting. I must go and have a look when I have time."

But at this time, Pan Lei, who was sitting aside, snorted and said: "Of course Rodrigo can manage Davao City well, because he plans to treat Davao as Duterte's family territory. Since 1986 Year starts to now 2 For more than 20 years, the mayor of Davao City has not changed. Ah, no, it has been changed before. His daughter became the mayor, and then he became the deputy mayor. But is there any difference? This is him? His family belongs to the world, so of course he wants to develop this place well.

As for why other gangs dare not cause trouble in Davao City, it is because Rodrigo himself is the largest gang leader in Davao City, so of course he does not allow others to come and seize the territory! "

Fu Sha retorted: "Yes, you are right. Duterte regards Davao City as his own kingdom. He is indeed the biggest gangster in Davao, but what does this have to do with us businessmen who invest? As long as the local area is stable, prosperous, and we can make money, why do you care how he got this situation?

And the citizens of Davao City are very satisfied with the current situation. After all, life here is stable, there is no need to worry about bad things happening at any time, and there are many job opportunities. Therefore, not only are the original Davao citizens unwilling to leave, but there are also many outsiders scrambling to live and settle in Davao. Are the choices of these Filipinos wrong?"

"But you can't ignore the process because the result is good. Duterte governs Davao very well, but do you know how much he made in it..."

"What does how much he made have to do with ordinary citizens? I always think that capable corrupt officials are better than incompetent honest officials. It is better to let the citizens below be well fed when you make a lot of money than to let the citizens below go hungry when you are honest as water!"
