Chapter 369 Who is Professor Li Weidong?

Most of the workers sent by the Poverty Alleviation Office this time came from extremely poor mountainous areas. They had never been to the city, had never seen buildings or roads, had never ridden in cars or trains, and even thought that electric lights were rare.

.

On the first day these workers arrived, they almost broke the light switches in the dormitory and the faucets in the bathroom!

Malnutrition is common among young people who come out of such impoverished mountainous areas. Fortunately, they can slowly make up for it by eating enough and drinking enough. Having enough fat and protein in each meal can always solve the problem of malnutrition.

At most, Li Weidong could afford to spend a little more money on eating and drinking. If he could get a strong worker for the extra ten yuan in food expenses, it would be worth it.

What Li Weidong is more worried about is that the educational level of new workers is not up to standard.

Not to mention the lack of educational resources in poor areas, poor families cannot afford to send their children to school. Therefore, few of this group of workers can finish primary school, and many drop out of school after reaching the second or third grade.

This suddenly lowered the average educational level of workers in electrical appliance factories. In the past, the average educational level of workers was at least a primary school graduate, but now it has become a dropout of primary school education.

Factories need not only cheap labor, but also skilled cheap labor. The insufficient education level of workers will obviously affect their ability to learn production technology. If illiterate people could be easily trained to become skilled workers, India would have long become the "world's

Factory”!

Li Weidong estimated that during the training process, the elimination rate of this group of workers may exceed 50%.

According to the regulations of the electrical appliance factory, four skill assessments will be conducted during the training period. If you fail twice in a row, you will be eliminated, and if you fail the fourth time, you will be eliminated directly.

However, Li Weidong soon discovered that his estimate was not correct. After the first two weeks of training, the factory conducted two assessments, and the number of failures in both assessments was much less than Li Weidong imagined.

Obviously, education does not mean low IQ. Most people just do not have the opportunity to receive education, and they are not stupid. As for the work in the electrical appliance factory, as long as you are willing to study hard, you can still master the production technology.

Moreover, Li Weidong also discovered that it was easier to manage these migrant workers from poor areas.

Young people who come from impoverished mountainous areas have never seen much of the world. When they suddenly come to a strange environment like a city, they are definitely at a loss.

In this case, they basically do whatever they are asked to do, and absolutely no one will question the leader's order. To put it bluntly, they are willing to obey!

It is precisely for this reason that the military-style management rules and regulations of the electrical appliance factory were smoothly implemented among the new workers.

For these young rural people who came to work in the city for the first time, the first thing they came into contact with was this kind of militarized management. They subconsciously thought that this is what it was like to be a worker in a factory. No one would question this strict set of rules.

Whether the rules and regulations are reasonable or not, in short, just follow them.

If it were workers who have seen the world and are familiar with the urban environment. They know how other factories operate and what it is like to be a worker, they will definitely not be so easy to accept the militarized management system.

In addition, these migrant workers from impoverished mountainous areas have not enjoyed very good material conditions. Their material requirements are very low and can be easily met.

Eating white flour steamed buns for every meal is already a satisfying life. The dishes that come and go in the cafeteria are delicacies that they will never get tired of. As for handing out clothes and daily necessities, they can even think of it as a gift.

Celebrate the new year.

This kind of worker who is obedient and obedient to management and has low requirements for daily life is like an angel to the factory!

There is no doubt that this kind of worker is very much in line with the appetite of capitalists.

…

In a spacious office in Beijing, an old man in his sixties was reading a document in his hand.

If you are someone who often watches the news, you will definitely recognize it. This old man appeared fifteen minutes before the news.

At this time, the old man looked at the document in his hand, confusion flashed in his eyes.

The document contains an introduction to Japan's economic policies in the recent period and Japan's economic trends.

However, the old man felt that the content of this article seemed familiar to him, as if he had seen it somewhere.

"Did you bring over the previous documents?" The old man shook his head immediately. He knew that the secretary's office would definitely not make such a mistake. The documents given to him must have been checked at all levels, and there would be absolutely no duplicate documents.

.

However, the old man was certain that he had indeed seen the contents of this document.

The old man had a very good memory. He thought carefully for a long time and finally remembered that he had read an article about Japan's economic forecast, which was very similar to what was written above. However, the old man could not remember which economist the article came from.

Home hands.

The old man still remembered that the prediction was completely different from the predictions of other economists in the country. When he saw the prediction at the time, he even thought it was sensational.

However, now he discovered that the contents of that prediction were coming true one after another.

As soon as the old man called, the secretary's office got busy immediately. After spending a lot of effort, he finally found the old prediction article for the old man, and then the old man immediately compared it.

"In order to cope with the possible economic recession, the Japanese government will carry out currency reforms. Who would have thought that Japan might have an economic recession at that time? But now it seems that Japan's economic recession is not impossible.

Adjustment of interest rates is expected to begin in the second half of 1991, and the interest rates will be reduced 10 to 12 times in a row. If I remember correctly, Japan's interest rates should have been reduced seven or eight times from 1991 to now!

Starting in 1992, the Bank of Japan will issue additional bonds, and he was right. His prediction was to issue 45 trillion yen in bonds within three years. In less than a year, the Bank of Japan has issued 10 trillion yen in bonds.

It is not impossible to issue 45 trillion bonds in three years!

The tax reform increased land value tax. Japan's land value tax was also implemented in 1991. Who would have thought that when housing prices continued to fall, the Japanese government would actually levy a land value tax!

Increase financial investment in the fields of communications and science and technology; impose import restrictions on lending, reduce foreign trade excesses, and expand the scope of application of import taxes; adjust commodity prices and reduce charging standards for energy and other public utilities...

He actually got everything right! This prediction is so amazing! Japan’s economic policies in the past two years have been exactly as written above! The person who wrote this prediction must be the Prime Minister of Japan!

"

The old man quickly looked at the signature of the article. Fortunately, it didn't mention Miyazawa Kiichi.

"Li Weidong? This name is a bit strange. Which university are you a professor at?"

The old man read Li Weidong's Japanese economic forecast again, and his brows gradually wrinkled.

"According to his prediction, Japan's economy will enter a flow trap. Even now, it seems unlikely and impossible.

After all, Japan is the second largest economy in the world. Although their stock market and real estate market have collapsed in the past two years, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. If Japan's economy occasionally stagnates, I will believe that it can be a liquidity trap.

I will never believe it.

But some of his previous predictions were outrageous, and all of them were correct. Will Japan really fall into a flow trap? If that is the case, then the matter will be serious!"

Then, the old man saw a more serious prediction at the end of the article.

"There will be a political party rotation in Japan for the first time. I absolutely don't believe this! In Japan's political arena, the Liberal Democratic Party has no opponent at all and it is absolutely impossible to lose!"

However, the old man suddenly thought that Li Weidong had been predicting everything before. If this prediction was correct, it would really be a big change!

If the Prime Minister changes, Japan's policies in all aspects may change, and then it will no longer be an economic issue!

"Japan's Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly election seems to be this month!"

The old man looked at the signature again, and he suddenly felt that he should find an opportunity to meet the "Professor Li Weidong" predicted by the gods in person.

…

The phone on Xiao Yuanzheng's desk suddenly rang.

Xiao Yuanzheng answered the phone, and a strange voice sounded: "Is it Director Xiao Yuanzheng?"

"Yes, I am Xiao Yuanzheng, who are you?" Xiao Yuanzheng asked.

"I'm the little king from X office!" the other party replied.

"It turns out to be Secretary Wang!" Xiao Yuanzheng did not dare to neglect. He knew that Office X was dedicated to serving leaders.

Therefore, if the secretary of Office

And if it was for personal matters, Xiao Yuanzheng did not dare to neglect, and he would help if he could. After all, he was the person around the leader, and he should not offend if he could form a good relationship.

So Xiao Yuanzheng asked: "Does the leader have any instructions?"

"Director Xiao, it's like this. You submitted a report before, which was about Japan's economic forecast. The leader feels that the content of this report has some merits."

Secretary Wang continued: "There happens to be a symposium of economists this month, and the leader would like to invite the author of this report, Professor Li Weidong, to attend the symposium.

But we don’t know the contact information of Professor Li Weidong, so we have to ask Director Xiao to help us contact Professor Li Weidong!”

Xiao Yuanzheng knew that the so-called economists' symposium was actually a gathering of economic think tanks to report their research results to the leaders.

If leaders have questions, these scholars and professors will answer them and make suggestions.

This is a very high-level meeting. If you can attend this meeting, it means that your suggestions may become the direction of the country's future development! This is definitely a dream for students.

But what the hell is this "Professor Li Weidong"?
