Rebirth of the Industrial Tycoon

Chinese Pinyin was researched and formulated between 1955 and 1957, and it was officially used in 1958. Before that, European and American countries used Webster's Pinyin for the phonetic rules of Chinese.

Webster's Pinyin was invented by the British Witoma Holly, who came to China during the first Opium War and served as a diplomat in China for 43 years. arts.

Before 1958, Wechsler Pinyin was widely used for phonetic transcription of names and place names. It was not until the promotion of Chinese Pinyin in China that Wechsler Pinyin began to be abolished.

For example, Qian Xuesen, a famous scientist, when he was abroad, his English name was Hsue-shen Tsien, and he used Wechsler Pinyin. After the country began to implement Hanyu Pinyin, he changed to Qian Xue-sen as the English translation of his name.

In addition to the mainland area, other areas that use Chinese, or the Chinese population with Chinese surnames, also use Wechsler Pinyin as the phonetic pronunciation of their names.

This can be seen in sports competitions. The English names of the athletes will be marked in the Olympic Games. They are all Chinese faces, and they are all Chinese names. It can be distinguished by the English names marked on them, whether the athletes are from the mainland. .

Foreign Chinese use Wechsler Pinyin as a surname marking, professional translators should pay attention.

However, the first impression of the surname "Chang" in the past is "Chang" in Chinese Pinyin. Although the surname "Chang" is very rare, it is not a rare surname, so the translation is so called.

And the mixed-race lawyer didn't correct it himself. Maybe his own Chinese pronunciation was not very standard. He couldn't tell the difference between "Chang" and "Zhang".

Li Weidong also did not expect that the name Gordon Chang uses Wechsler Pinyin. According to the normal English translation, it is no problem to say that it is Gordon-Chang.

Fortunately, Chen Yonghua was right next to him, otherwise, Li Weidong would never know for the rest of his life who the half-blood Chinese Gordon-Chang was!

Chen Yonghua is a Ph.D. from Hong Kong Island Polytechnic University. He received British-style English education. There is no shortage of British professors in Hong Kong Island Polytechnic University. They usually communicate in English. He does not know Chinese pinyin. His pinyin is very proficient.

So when Chen Yonghua saw the name "Gordon Chang", what appeared in his mind was not "Chang" in Hanyu Pinyin, but "Zhang" or "Zhang" in Webster's Pinyin.

Similarly, the name Gordon is often called Gordon according to the transliteration of the Chinese name, and in the transliteration of Wechsler Pinyin, it can be translated as "Jia Dun".

Coupled with the previous surname, Li Weidong instantly remembered who this Gordon Chang was!

"How did you provoke the people from the Strategic Flickering Bureau! And he is the seat of the North American Division, so he really provokes a big guy!"

Thinking of this, Li Weidong couldn't help but laugh.

Knowing that the author of the article is Zhang Juzuo, Li Weidong also understands why there are such articles that smear China's economic development. It is not surprising that he wrote this kind of article. For the chapter bureau,

Articles of this level are simply paediatric.

This Zhang Juzhu is famous not only in the West, but also in China.

In 2001, Zhang Juzuo wrote a book "China Is About to Collapse", which was on the list of best-sellers in the United States at once. Zhang Juzuo also transformed himself into a Chinese expert in North America, and even the US Congress invited him to participate in the hearing. meeting.

"China Collapse Theory" obviously caters to the tastes of European and American countries, so the book has been translated into Japanese, French, German and other languages ​​and distributed in various countries around the world.

Overnight, Zhang Juzuo became famous, and many Western media and universities invited Zhang Juzuo to give interviews and lectures. The chapter bureau also made a lot of money because of this.

He also thought that he made money by selling the "China Collapse Theory", and Zhang Juzuo has since embarked on this road of no return. Every year, predicting that China is about to collapse has become Zhang Juzuo's daily work.

From the very beginning, it was said that China would collapse after joining the WTO, and then the forecast was postponed to 2005, then to 2008, and after 2010, the annual forecast was automatically postponed for one year.

A few years ago, Zhang Juzuo also looked for some different reasons, analyzed some data, and listed some cases to prove his inferences, but later, he didn't bother to change the data and cases, and he still used the previous year's data. Article, and then change the time, and publish it to earn manuscript fees.

However, China has never collapsed as Zhang Juzuo predicted. Instead, it has developed better and better, and is thriving in all aspects.

In addition, there is a joke about the "Strategic Fudge Bureau" on the Chinese Internet, so Zhang Juzuo was nicknamed the Bureau Block of the North American Division of the Strategic Fudge Bureau, saying that he has been professionally flicking the United States for 20 years, for China's "strategic flickering". "The work has made an outstanding contribution.

To this day, Zhang Juzuo's repeated failures in prediction have become the laughing stock of many people. Even in European and American countries, there are many people who understand that Zhang Juzuo is just doing the whole thing in order to sell books.

However, in the Western world, there are still many people who agree with Zhang Juzuo's statement. Mainly because the "China Collapse Theory" is what they want to hear, so it doesn't matter if it is true or not, as long as you say what I want to hear, then I will believe you!

Of course, there are also people who are really stupid and still foolishly believe that China will collapse.

...

For a small place like Qinghe City, there are not many opportunities to appear in the domestic media, and it is even more important to appear in the foreign media.

But unfortunately, this time it appeared in foreign media, but it was not a positive image.

The wholesale mall is said to be a face project, and it has become a case of economic data fraud, and the so-called "ghost castle" is even more eye-catching.

Because of the name of this "ghost castle", the superiors have begun to ask about this matter, and Qinghe City has also regarded this matter as a serious public relations incident.

In the conference room, everyone bowed their heads, but Li Weidong looked indifferent.

"Chairman Li, why aren't you in a hurry!" Minister Zhao said from the side.

"Worry? Why worry?" Li Weidong asked with a smile.

"Your wholesale mall is said to be a ghost castle!" Minister Zhao hummed.

"Then what should I do? Find a Taoist priest to set up an altar to exorcise ghosts? Or invite a few monks to do a water and land conference to pass the time? How about inviting a statue of Zhong Kui over? Otherwise, ask a priest to carry a cross and shout a few words. Hallelujah? But this is China's territory, and there are ghosts in China. It's probably useless to ask the priest to call Hallelujah! It's better to read Dawei Tianlong." Li Weidong said with a smile.

At this moment, a voice sounded from outside the door: "I still know how to joke, it seems that Chairman Li has already found a solution!"

Everyone looked towards the door and saw Zhang Jiagang striding in.

"Secretary Zhang is here." Everyone stood up one after another.

"Everyone, sit down!" Zhang Jiagang walked to the middle seat and sat down, and said, "Everyone knows the specific situation of the matter, so I won't repeat it for me. Let me tell you the instructions from the superior.

The name 'Ghost Castle' doesn't sound so pleasant. It is also because of this name that the superior leaders pay attention to our wholesale mall. Therefore, yesterday afternoon, the leader personally called to inquire about the project of the textile wholesale mall.

Fortunately, our project, from project initiation, to land acquisition, to planning and construction, and the final project acceptance, were all carried out in strict accordance with the operating specifications. No matter who checked it, no problem could be found.

However, it is also a fact that no merchants have settled in the wholesale mall project at present. Therefore, the superior leaders also have doubts whether this project is a face project. If it is a face project, it must be demolished! "

Zhang Jiagang said, looking at Li Weidong with a serious look.

Li Weidong said: "Secretary Zhang, this project is not funded by the government, but by me. There is also a special company for the operation of the project. The entire project from construction to operation is completely commercial, and I am responsible for the profits and losses. Have you ever seen that face project where businessmen are responsible for their own profits and losses?"

"That's what I explained to the leader." Zhang Jiagang coughed dryly, and then continued: "But as a commercial project, if it's just sitting there empty all day and being called a ghost castle, it's not good, right? Chairman Li, when I came in, I heard you talking and laughing, you must have a plan?"

Li Weidong nodded: "Secretary Zhang, I do have a solution. But before that, I want to ask the leaders, why do you think there are no traders in the textile wholesale mall?"

"It should be too far from the city, there is a lack of people, and if there are no customers, the vendors will naturally be reluctant to go." Someone said.

"As far as I know, the wholesale mall that Yiwu originally built was far from the city center. It was also built on a barren countryside, but why can people build a wholesale market?" Li Weidong immediately asked back.

"Well..." The man shook his head dazedly.

Li Weidong went on to say: "So, it's not because it's built far from the city or in a remote location. The real reason is traffic!"

"Chairman Li, do you mean that the traffic is inconvenient? The city has already begun to solve this problem. The bus route to the wholesale mall has been planned. It is expected to be completed within half a month, and it will take a month. It will open." Zhang Jiagang replied.

Li Weidong shook his head: "I'm not only talking about the public transportation in the city, but also the transportation connecting outside the city. Leaders, the positioning of our market is wholesale, and it is also aimed at small traders who do textile business.

For example, people who set up street stalls or open small clothing stores are the only people who go to wholesale clothes. Ordinary people buy clothes piece by piece, and it is impossible for anyone to wholesale hundreds of pieces at one time!

Relying on a bus line connecting the urban area can not solve the fundamental problem. Those who set up stalls and shops to sell clothes in our city, when purchasing goods are not in large or small bags, it is enough to buy an agricultural tricycle. It is convenient to do the bus.

The traffic problem I am talking about is the connection between other counties and cities, so that the wholesalers of clothing in other counties and cities can more easily reach the wholesale mall, so that the whole wholesale mall can be easily revitalized.

Isn't Yiwu's Small Commodity Wholesale City the same? Some of the people who go there to buy goods are Yiwu locals, and they are not all out-of-town traders, who support the entire Yiwu Small Commodity City?

Therefore, our textile wholesale market should also follow the route of Yiwu Small Commodity City, attracting merchants from all over the country, rather than being limited to the combination of wholesale malls and urban areas of Qinghe.

I have a suggestion here. I hope that the city can fight for it with the country. After the Beijing-Shanghai Expressway is completed, a highway entrance and exit will be set up at the location of Shilibao, so that it can be convenient for foreign merchants to go to the wholesale mall to purchase. "

Zhang Jiagang coughed dryly: "Chairman Li, the Qinghe section of the Beijing-Shanghai Expressway has not yet started construction. There is no decision on how to plan the route and where to set up the entrances and exits. Maybe the expressway will be far away from Shilibao, and there is no way at all. Set up highway entrances and exits.”

Of course Zhang Jiagang knew about the planning of the expressway, but it only involved land acquisition, and the specifics were kept secret, so he could only pretend to be confused.

Li Weidong laughed: "Secretary Zhang, don't forget, I am also the chairman of Fukang Engineering Company! How many highway construction companies in the province use our company's equipment."

Li Weidong means that this kind of news can't be hidden from me.

Zhang Jiagang had to smile awkwardly and said, "Chairman Li really is well-informed!"

Li Weidong continued: "Secretary Zhang, in addition to setting up an entrance and exit for the expressway at Shisilibao, I also propose to add a passenger car transfer station in Shisilibao, which can be built directly next to the wholesale mall.

At that time, merchants who travel from south to north will get off the expressway, get off at the transfer station, and go straight to the textile wholesale market to discuss business.

The surrounding counties and cities can walk back and forth in a day, without delaying going home to finish dinner. Coupled with the warehousing and logistics park I am building, I can deliver the goods on the same day, and buyers can receive the goods the next day. With this level of convenience, are you afraid that there will be no business? "

"Passenger Transfer Center?" Zhang Jiagang felt that the name sounded familiar.

He thought about it carefully. When the US economic and trade delegation went to the restaurant that day, Li Weidong mentioned the matter of this passenger transfer center. At that time, he was still wondering when a passenger transfer center appeared in Qinghe, and why was no one following him? He reports. Later, because I was too busy, I forgot about it.

Now Zhang Jiagang finally understands that Li Weidong had a plan!

Thinking of this, Zhang Jiagang said slightly ironically: "Chairman Li's plan is very thorough, and it really is foresight!"

"I just came up with an idea. If it is really implemented, it mainly depends on the wise leaders of the city." Li Weidong quickly gave Zhang Jiagang a high hat.

Then Li Weidong continued: "With the length of the Beijing-Shanghai Expressway in the Qinghe section, why do we have to set up five or six entrances and exits in Qinghe City? There must be one close to the urban area by then.

Anyway, the entrance and exit of this expressway must be set up. It is better to set it up in Shilibao. It can build a wholesale mall, and it can also stimulate the economic and trade development of the city and increase tax revenue for the city.

At that time, the wholesale mall is booming, we can not only give an explanation to the superiors, but also give a slap in the face to those foreigners who smear our country's economic development! It is also a fight for face for the country. "

Zhang Jiagang nodded slightly, fighting for face for the country, which really spoke to Zhang Jiagang's heart.

I thought that I had kindly brought the economic and trade delegation to visit the wholesale mall, I wanted to show off the economic development of Qinghe City, but it was called a "ghost castle", and I had to fight without steaming buns!

What's more, the wholesale mall project was first proposed by Zhang Jiagang after he went to Yiwu for inspection. If this project fails, it will definitely be a stain on his political performance.

Thinking of this, Zhang Jiagang said: "Chairman Li's suggestion is very good. We will seriously discuss it. If it is really feasible, the city will work hard to set up the entrance and exit of the expressway at Twenty Mile Fort."

Hearing this, Li Weidong breathed a sigh of relief.

"I was still thinking about how to fight for the entrance and exit of the expressway. I didn't expect Zhang Juzuo to write such a 'ghost castle' article, but it helped me! Zhang Juzuo is really a good person, for me The wholesale market is doing his best, and I have to find an opportunity to slap him in the face when I look back, and thank him well."
