Rebirth of the Industrial Tycoon

Li Weidong was leaning against the pool of the hot spring, with a wooden tray next to him, which contained a stream of sake.

"Drinking a small wine and soaking in the hot spring, it's comfortable!" Li Weidong looked like he was enjoying.

At this moment, the sound of footsteps came from not far away, and the wooden floor of the guessing thumped.

"An An is here!" Li Weidong looked in the direction of the voice expectantly.

Then, at the corner of the corridor, a head stuck out, it was He An'an.

"Turn your body around and don't peek!" He Anan said.

Li Weidong immediately turned around and turned his back to He Anan.

There was a sound of footsteps, followed by the sound of launching water.

"Can you turn your head around?" Li Weidong asked.

"Turn around!" He An'an's voice sounded.

Li Weidong couldn't wait to turn around, only to see He Anan's entire body buried in the water, only his head exposed.

The hot spring water is not light, but a little whitish. It is probably filled with various minerals, so He Anan buried his body in the hot spring, and he really couldn't see anything from the outside.

"How is it, this hot spring is not bad!" Li Weidong asked.

"Alright!" He Anan replied.

"Fortunately, it's not a weekend, it's just the two of us here. If there are too many people, you can't let everyone else turn their backs!" Li Weidong said with a smile.

"It's up to you!" He An'an snorted coldly: "If there are too many people, I won't take it!"

The two chatted for a while, and Li Weidong pointed to the wine glass in the tray and asked, "Are you drinking?"

"Drink!" He Anan was not polite, swam over, and reached for the wine glass.

With this action, He Anan couldn't help but stand up a little bit, but the upper body wrapped in the towel left the water and showed it in front of Li Weidong.

The towel soaked up the water and pressed it tightly to Li Weidong's eyes.

After He Anan took the wine glass, he retracted most of his body back into the water.

"This silly girl is really stealing the bell!" Li Weidong sighed softly, recalling the graceful figure he saw just now, he couldn't help but sighed and muttered to himself in a low voice, "It's growing so well."

"What are you muttering about?" He Anan asked.

"It's nothing, I just thought of an idiom when I saw this hot spring." Li Weidong said.

"What idiom?" He Anan asked.

Li Weidong gave a bad smile: "The sea is open to all rivers!"

"A small hot spring,

What does it have to do with the sea! "He Anan asked inexplicably.

"I don't care about this sentence, the key is the next sentence!" Li Weidong secretly said in his heart, but he didn't say it. He was worried that He Anan would see through his subtext.

Li Weidong, who was a little guilty, decided to change the subject. He said, "An An, are you graduating in June this year? What do you plan to do after graduation?"

"I originally planned to study in Japan." He Anan paused, then said, "But now I don't want to!"

"Why? Isn't it good to study abroad?" Li Weidong asked.

"I haven't been to Japan before, and I think Japan must be very good, but after visiting you a few times, I'm not so curious anymore, I think Japan is just like that!" He Anan replied.

"Then do you plan to continue your studies, or work in China?" Li Weidong asked again.

"It should be directly involved in work!" He Anan replied.

"Is it still in the foreign trade department?" Li Weidong asked again.

He Anan shook his head: "It may be the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, or the Liaison Department of the State Council! I am studying Japanese after all, so it would be a waste to go elsewhere!"

"It's all ministries!" Li Weidong was shocked, and then said; "If I want to find you in the future, I have to go to the capital!"

He Anan hesitated for a moment, and then said, "My father's job has been transferred and he was transferred to the capital, so I had to move back to the capital."

Li Weidong nodded. He had already noticed that He Anan used the word "move back" instead of "move out".

"This girl, I don't know if I can climb high, it seems that I have to work harder!" Li Weidong secretly said in his heart.

...

In the capital, in a quiet courtyard, an old man was sitting in his office, reading a document in his hand.

This document is a report on Japan's economic development.

After World War II, in just a few decades, Japan has developed into the world's second largest economy, so Japan's economy has also become the focus of research by economists from all over the world.

Since the signing of the "Plaza Accord", Japan has begun to buy things all over the world, giving people the illusion that Japan's economic rise is flying.

However, the rise of one person has burst Japan's bubble economy, that is, the newly appointed Governor of the Bank of Japan, Yasushi Mie, in May 1989.

In just over a year, the Bank of Japan raised interest rates five times in a row, the last time being in August 1990.

Five interest rate hikes finally burst the Japanese real estate bubble. After 1991, Japan's housing prices began to fall rapidly, and in the next year, the Japanese stock market will also evaporate 50% of its market value.

Japan was the second largest economy in the world at that time. What happened in Japan would naturally attract the attention of politicians and economists from various countries, all kinds of aftermath analysis, and all kinds of unreliable predictions. There are also endless.

Now, in the hands of the old man, he is holding an analysis report of Japan's economy after the fact.

"This report feels very familiar, I seem to have seen it somewhere!" The old man's memory is still very good.

The old man frowned and thought about it, maybe it was too long ago, and he couldn't remember it for a while.

So he continued to look down, and some of the above discussions gradually aroused his memory.

"I really have an impression of the content here, it seems to be a report I read a few years ago!" The old man frowned and recalled it carefully, making sure that he remembered correctly.

"No, that report was from a few years ago, right? But this report in my hand is about Japan's economic situation in the last year! How could this appear in a report from a few years ago!"

The old man thought of this and called the secretary.

"Leader, what are your orders?" the secretary asked.

"I'm looking for a report from a few years ago. I can't remember the specific years, but it must not have been read in the last year or two. I only remember that the content is about Japan's economic prospects." The old man said. said.

"Okay, I'll check right away!" The secretary nodded and walked out of the office.

All the documents that the old man has read have related records, but the old man sees a lot of documents every day, and it is very troublesome to query.

Fortunately, there is a special secretariat that does this. A few hours later, the secretary walked in with a thick stack of documents.

"Leader, this is from 1986 to 1989, all the internal reference reports on Japan's economic prospects, please take a look."

"Look for it, the content is similar to this report." The old man handed the fresh aftermath report to the secretary.

This is again a time-consuming project.

After a long time, the secretary came to report.

"Leader, I found it, similar to that report, there are three points in total, one is from 1987, and the other two are from 1989. All three reports say that the Bank of Japan will raise interest rates, and two of them are from 1989. He mentioned the trend of the Japanese real estate industry." The secretary said.

"Bring them all!" The old man took the three-point document, and the first thing he looked at was the one from 1987.

"This is what I'm looking for!" The old man let out a sigh of relief, then quickly flipped through the document.

Looking at it, the old man's expression gradually became solemn.

"Is this really written in 1987?" the old man asked.

The secretary nodded: "It's from 1987, with the date and number on it."

"It's amazing! What I wrote four years ago has actually come true. It's not bad at all!" The old man sighed softly. This is much better than the aftermath analysis he's seen.

"The prediction is so accurate, which economist wrote this!" The old man said, looking at the signature.

"Xiao Yuanzheng? It sounds familiar!" The old man frowned and thought.

"Leader, have you forgotten, it's Elder Xiao's son!" the secretary reminded.

"It turned out to be him!" The old man nodded: "I remember that this kid on the expedition was quite naughty when he was a child. I didn't expect to have such an opinion about the economy! Old Xiao's education is good! I have to talk to Lao Xiao. chat."

I saw the old man pick up the phone and dial a number: "Hey, Lao Xiao, it's me..."

...

Xiao Yuanzheng was called back to the capital in a hurry, and went straight to the office of the old man of the Xiao family.

The old man of the Xiao family directly handed the internal reference document from four years ago to Xiao Yuanzheng.

"Is this what you wrote?" The old man of the Xiao family asked.

Xiao Yuanzheng took the document and recalled it carefully before saying, "I wrote it. If you don't show me this, I'll forget it myself!"

"It's well written. The above predictions about the Japanese economy have all come true!" The old man of the Xiao family said.

Xiao Yuanzheng knew that his old man would not easily praise others. Now that he is praised by his old man, Xiao Yuanzheng is also very happy.

The old man of the Xiao family continued: "When you go back, write another copy. You don't need to write too much, but you need to be more detailed. Just like this, write a forecast for the Japanese economy in the next four years."

"What? Still writing?" Xiao Yuanzheng suddenly looked bitter: "Dad, how do I understand the Japanese economy!"

"I don't understand? Didn't you write this report four years ago?" The old man of the Xiao family asked.

Xiao Yuanzheng quickly explained: "Dad, have you forgotten? I went home for the New Year and talked about the trade deficit at the dinner table. I said that I have a friend who has unique insights into Japan's economic prospects. And let me write it down, that's what it is now!"

"I remembered, there is such a thing!" The old man of the Xiao family nodded: "I said you, kid, don't have the ability to write this thing."

"Hey, Dad, since I don't have the ability, don't let me write this new report!" Xiao Yuanzheng said with a smile.

The old man of the Xiao family shook his head: "The report still needs to be written. If you can't write it, it doesn't matter, go to your friend who understands the Japanese economy and let him write it!"
