Vol 6 Chapter 52: An Zhi Ruo Su (2)

Only Wang Ai knows whether    can become the guiding ideology. Although Wang Bin has been in contact with many high-level executives and often comes into contact with the intellectual community on a daily basis, but the intellectual community himself has been stunned, so he can only respond with caution.
  "What about outdated production capacity? Elimination is a central decision, but you say it can’t be transferred all the way?"
"Upgrade on the spot." Wang Ai relieved: "The so-called backward production capacity is actually divided into three types. The first one is highly polluting. The common people complain that the environment is harmful, and the investment in this treatment can be large. Those who are affected Sooner or later, pollution has to be dealt with, just like the smog in Beijing. This cost was originally borne by the society and the country, but in the future the company will have to bear it. However, globalization is different in local policies, so we must upgrade or go. Large-scale, there is no other way but to upgrade."
  Wang Bin nodded:
61.4% of the paper machines at home have zero drainage, and 100% can be achieved in about three years. As long as we no longer discharge sewage, no one will say that we are a polluting company.

  "The second type is energy-intensive. This, the European group of people sings high-profile and keeps exerting pressure on us. We can't ignore it. We have to do something, but we can't be fooled."
  "Is environmental tax?"
  "Couldn't they? They completed the industrialization by themselves, and then set a high threshold to prevent others from entering. You can come in, you have to pay him a rent."
   "High energy consumption means more coal burning, which is linked to pollution. I heard that the photovoltaic industry in the south is developing rapidly. Can this replace coal burning in the future? Or natural gas?"

It’s hard to say, but it’s not estimated right now. Some technologies in the photovoltaic industry have just broken through, and the cost is too high to be affordable. Although natural gas is not highly polluting, our local production capacity is not enough. This again involves a high level of elimination. The underlying reason for the energy-consuming industry is that our crude oil is too controlled by others. Whether it is the Middle East or Russia, it is always unreliable." Wang Ai looked at his father: "You said that our new China has great development potential, so many times. Under the blockade, I said earlier that our party suffered from blockade when it was in northern Shaanxi? So, for sure, the string has always been tense."
Wang Bin sighed after thinking about it for a long time this time: "The environment in our northeast is too bad. Heilongjiang has abundant water resources, but it freezes in winter and the hydropower station is staring. The photovoltaics look good, but we always snow in winter. If we really want to provide us with a production base, we have to arrange for someone to clean snow, and the thing must have a lifespan under our severe temperature difference. This cost has risen again. There is also transportation, and the northeast of the Heilongjiang estuary is the one. The large inland is far inferior to Sichuan. No wonder they all go to the south. The conditions for industrial development are really good."
  Wang Aixin nodded sadly: "Lao Maozi is always guarding us, and Vladivostok won't let it be used happily. By the way, Hunchun is okay, right?"
"Well, we are big buyers from Russia, and demand from Korea and Japan is also strong, so we work together on the three sides, and we allow our fleet to drive directly to the Tumen River estuary to board the ship, but we are an exception. I don’t know when the national level will be resolved.
Wang Bin said emotionally:
In fact, Lao Maozi doesn’t need to guard us. We are all running to the south. Who is going to Siberia? Lao Maozi is so skinny that he has to. Stay on the shelf. Back then, it was for the purpose of annexing the Northeast that the two outlets to the Northeast were forcibly sealed. Now this strategic plan will never exist, so why bother."
"I’m proud of myself, I’m not accepting defeat." Wang Ai laughed: "The taillights of the car that the big brother was dumped by the little brother were invisible. I was afraid of being looked down upon, so I held on. But it’s been a very long time in China. It requires friendly relations between the two countries, and there is no way to mention this."
  Wang Bin squinted his eyes and said, "America is really going to change?"
  Wang Ai shrugged: "Now it has changed. The American academic community has sounded the alarm. Sooner or later, it will become action, and it will not exceed ten years."
   "So, buying the Tumen River land from Lao Maozi is impossible for a while." Wang Bin sighed.
  Wang Ai looked at his father in surprise: "Father, are you thinking about this?"
"Isn't someone else's land allowed to pay rent?" Wang Bin said disapprovingly: "How good we want to be, how we want to use it. That land is connected to North Korea, but Russia is too busy to take care of it now. How can we manage North Korea? Keeping this piece of land is not useful. Besides, Lao Maozi is not unsold land. Isn’t it sold as big as Alaska? The Tumen River land is only a few hundred square kilometers, no matter how expensive it is, you can afford it. That is not the fact that the four northern islands are related to Russia’s strategic security and a large exclusive economic zone. That piece of land has nothing to do with Russia’s security. It is purely an international strategic consideration, just for the Yellow Russia plan, which is useless now. The piece of land south of the Tumen River is also OK, it belongs to North Korea..."
  Wang Ai shook his head:
Let’s talk about our own business. This kind of change in the international pattern is usually measured in centuries.

Wang Bin sighed deeply: "We are not just taking care of ourselves. It is purely for development needs. We don't or don't want to threaten Russia. It's all nuclear powers who threaten whom. Oh, it's hard, I don't know when. Okay. , You said the third point. What are you talking about, high manpower consumption, this is a very fresh statement, does it mean those who are manpower-intensive?"
"Yeah." Wang Ai nodded: "The central government hasn't said clearly, but in fact those are also outdated in production capacity, and they run very fast. For example, shoemakers went to Africa, textiles went to Bangladesh. We China is getting old. The demographic dividend is not much anymore. And the industry is constantly upgrading, automation is getting higher and higher, and the use of people is gradually transitioning to the tertiary industry. There is indeed a strong need, which requires continuous control of the labor force. The release from those places is like liberating the surplus rural labor force in the past. For example, online shopping is so prosperous, and it will be more prosperous in the future. Doesn't this need a large number of couriers?"
"To put it this way, our family's morals have become crooked. Over the years, automation has become higher and higher." Wang Bin touched his chin: "Now less than 40% of the front-line workers, and the rest are considered to be in the service industry. Press You say that, high pollution, high energy consumption, and high manpower are the three high representatives of backward production capacity. We have solved two, and only this high energy consumption. In other words, we still have a solid foundation to meet the development of the country. Yes, the policy will definitely support it."
   "Of course, one hundred years of the primary stage of socialism." Wang Ai smiled.
   "Maybe the source is still unresolved." Wang Bin muttered thoughtfully, "Or, apply for a nuclear power plant?"
