Chapter 144: Go into politics?
As Zhan Xinyue was talking, Mr. Wen was taking notes and asking questions from time to time. Sheng Tunan also got involved and went into detail about the loan matters.
"That's good, that's good." After taking note, Mr. Wen said with a smile, "We old guys often discuss how to increase the enthusiasm of the masses to do business. Apart from mobilization and task allocation, no one has proposed a bank loan."
Zhan Xinyue could understand that the whole country was poor in the 70s, and banks certainly didn’t dare to touch their money. But it would be different if there was a guarantee or mortgage.
"This can solve the funding problem for some people who are brave enough to take risks, but most people are too timid."
After all, when liberation had just begun, the property of most of the rich, wealthy peasants, and capitalists was confiscated. People were worried that if they became rich in the future, their money would be confiscated, and all their work would be in vain.
And most people have no business sense at all.
"Then we should attract investment and invite the entrepreneurs and overseas Chinese who have fled abroad before to come back and set up factories. Let these honest and hardworking people go to work and get paid." Zhan Xinyue said.
"That's right." Sheng Tunan saw that Mr. Wen was hesitant, so he helped his daughter-in-law and said, "All Chinese people want to return to their roots. Most people left home in the past because they had no choice. Now if the country opens up its policies and supports entrepreneurs who return home, and offers preferential policies, I think some businessmen and entrepreneurs will come back."
Maybe at the beginning, they will be worried and afraid and only invest in a factory or a small shopping mall, but as long as they feel safe, they will definitely invest more.
After all, their roots are here.
Old Wen nodded, wrote this down in the notebook, and discussed some ways to attract investment with Zhan Xinyue and Sheng Tunan.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in." Old Man Wen put away the notebook and said.
A middle-aged man wearing glasses came in and said, "Mr. Wen, it's already twelve o'clock in the afternoon. It's time for lunch."
Zhan Xinyue had said before that if you want to live long, you have to eat three meals a day on time. Old Wen wanted to live until Wen Mingxuan got married and had children, so he told his secretary to remind him to eat on time.
"Okay." Elder Wen smiled and said, "I was so engrossed in the conversation today that I forgot the time. Xinyue, Tunan, come with me to the cafeteria to have a working lunch, and then we'll continue our conversation."
"Okay, Grandpa."
The working meal was not luxurious, but it contained meat, eggs, vegetables, and health-preserving soup, which was very nutritious. After the meal, several people took a walk in the yard to get through the most sleepy time at noon. At two o'clock in the afternoon, the three of them went to the third floor together to continue discussing reform and opening up.
"Grandpa, on Huanyu Island where Tunan and I were, there were already some wives of soldiers and the general public trying to set up stalls. I was also planning to open a clinic at the time, so I thought a lot about it. I just fantasized that it would be great if the country could give those of us who wanted to start a business some initial start-up capital. When I was taking a walk, I saw some people going to the sea, working hard to catch fish and shrimp to sell, and I also thought that it would be great if I could give these people a stable job so that their income could be guaranteed."
Returning to the third floor, Zhan Xinyue first explained why she thought of bank loans and investment attraction. "These are just my wild thoughts, grandpa, please don't laugh at me."
"Hahaha," Mr. Wen laughed heartily, "Your wild ideas can give me a sudden enlightenment. Wild ideas are good. If our country wants to reform and open up, we need some seemingly wild ideas."
After the old man finished speaking, he turned to Sheng Tunan and said, "Tunan, I think Xinyue is very suitable for politics. She is clear-headed and open-minded, able to stay at the forefront of the times, and has the drive and courage to take risks. Our country needs such cadres if it wants to reform and open up."
Sheng Tunan nodded proudly: "Xinyue has always been excellent."
"Xinyue, are you willing to follow Grandpa's path?"
