Start from 1980

Chapter 725
"What are we going to do?" Su Chen shook his head, "I only have research on Western economies, and I dare not speak nonsense about our country."

"My father and I are chatting casually." Uncle Cao glanced at him, "I don't think you haven't studied our country's economy."

"Okay, then let's chat with each other."

Su Chen took a sip of tea, and then said, "In 84, we proposed that the reform of the price system was the key to the success of the reform of the entire economic system. After that, the state gradually delegated the power of price management, and products with more varieties and quantities were brought into the market. regulation, the dual-track system of prices has become a common social phenomenon.”

"But this year, according to my visits across the country, I found that the gap between the planned price and the market price is too large, which has had very serious consequences. The inflation rate in our country has risen sharply. From last year to this year, it took only one year. At least 7% has gone up."

"So serious?" Uncle Cao frowned, "What if the dual-track system is abolished?"

"The consequences are more serious."

"why?"

"If inflation remains high, corporate restructuring has not yielded results, and the relationship between supply and demand has not been straightened out, if the dual-track price system is abolished, planned prices and market prices are forcibly merged, and price controls are completely released for all products, it will be a disaster. disaster."

Su Chen tried his best to make his words straightforward and easy to understand.

Uncle Cao frowned deeply: "Then what should we do?"

"Uncle Cao, I only have one sentence."

Su Chen said, "In a big country with a population of one billion, any radical reform is a dangerous attempt. It is better to expect long-term pain than short-term pain to solve complex social and economic problems, and in the end it will only bring about greater harm. disaster."

"This is a long-term goal that will take five years or more to reach."

Uncle Cao didn't speak any more.

After drinking tea, Su Chen said: "Uncle Cao, I'll go back to my room to write my book first. The United States has been asking me to write a manuscript. If there is anything else, you can come to me."

"Okay, you go to work first."

……

During this time, Su Chen was either watching the scenery on the deck, or hiding in the room to write a book, and chatting with Uncle Cao occasionally.

He found that this guy always likes to ask some questions around the corner.

Like what 'will there really be a catastrophe? ''Is there anything you can do about it? ''What do you think should be done? ''Is your prediction accurate? '

In the end, Su Chen didn't even want to chat with this guy.

And Uncle Cao looked for him very frequently.

It made his life at sea very difficult, and he passed a long period of time.

The ship finally docked at Dammam Port.

After disembarking, I saw that Bandar had been greeted at the pier.

In addition, some media were also present. At first glance, all of them were dressed in robes, scarves, and a black headband on top.

Although these people were glamorous, they were wearing a pair of unfashionable slippers.

This is not disrespect, but mainly because there are no matching shoes in white robes, so even in winter, although they will wear a cape on top of the white robes, they still wear slippers.

It is said that when Mr. Ma visited Dubai, when the sheikh and crown prince of Dubai received him in person, they did not dress formally enough, saying that people did not respect Mr. Ma.

In fact, it's not that they neglect Teacher Ma, but that it has become a habit since ancient times. Not to mention meeting Teacher Ma, even the Heavenly King Laozi is still a pair of slippers.

"Dear Su, my old friend, welcome to Daman with your colleagues." Bandar hugged Su Chen enthusiastically, and then looked confused, "Please introduce your colleagues."

"Dude, it would be disrespectful to them if you ask me to help introduce them, so I have to let them introduce themselves." Su Chen said with a smile, "Let's start with the one next to me."

Because he doesn't know the names of these people.

The leader of Uncle Cao introduced himself briefly, which was considered as the completion of greetings.

When the media came up, there was a snap of taking pictures, and the flash machine was so bright that Teacher Su couldn't help but close his eyes.

After the photo was taken, Bandar gave a speech on the spot.

"I met this young Chinese in the United States. He is a very good Chinese guy and is known as the youngest economist. The two books he published are regarded as teaching materials in the United States."

Bandar said, "He once invited me to visit their country as a guest, but because of my personal work, I didn't go. This time I specially invited him to visit our country personally and conduct economic discussions."

He waved to Su Chen: "Come on buddy, you have to say something."

Su Chen stood in front of the microphone and glanced at the people in the audience.

"I was invited to visit this time because I really want to experience this happy desert. At the same time, I would like to thank my old friend Mr. Bandar for inviting me. It just happened to give me a chance to go abroad. I believe it will be a pleasant trip abroad." journey of."

The reporter clicked and took pictures.

After delivering his speech, Bandar began to arrange the itinerary.

Originally, Su Chen thought he would go to Jeddah, because this is their second largest city, largest port, important financial center, and also the capital of diplomacy, but he did not expect to go to Riyadh.

Anyway, don't expect to be full of blonde girls like in the United States.

Here, women are rarely seen on the street, and even if they are seen, they are all covered with black veils, as if they are shameful.

And women can't work yet, extremely conservative.

Various reasons.

After finally arriving in Riyadh, Su Chen was too tired to move.

But living in the hotel of the big dog, the feeling is really different.

When Su Chen was thinking about how to arrange the itinerary, Uncle Cao came to him first.

When he saw this, his head hurt.

"Su Chen, I heard that they are going to arrange for you to go to King's University for an exchange. The bumps along the way were very uncomfortable, and I was still a little unaccustomed, so I won't go with you."

"Uncle Cao, you should pay more attention to your body." Su Chen looked concerned, "Seek medical treatment in time. By the way, I don't feel relieved to leave you here alone. It's better to leave a few more colleagues to take care of you."

"I think so too. After all, I don't understand English or their words, so it's better to leave someone to take care of them." Uncle Cao said, "For communication, you should run around more."

……

While eating, Bandar found that Uncle Cao and the others hadn't come, and when he learned that several people were not acclimatized, he immediately arranged for them to go to the hospital.

And after careful consideration, it is recommended that the Chinese side arrange someone to accompany them, and it is best to provide some Chinese food so that they can adapt in the shortest time.

Su Chen naturally has no opinion on this suggestion.

I would like to express my gratitude to Bandar, and at the same time hope that these colleagues can recover soon, Barabara.

After arranging these things, start eating.

"Man..." Bandar said, "In order to welcome you, and I hope you can feel the enthusiasm of our country, how about visiting here for half a month?"

"Of course there is no problem. I yearn for your country very much." Su Chen said with a smile, "I have already made a detailed plan. I wonder if you have time to accompany me?"

Bandar sighed, "Su, I have to tell you a sad news..."
