Chapter 549 National Strategic Reserve

The Spring Festival has become a symbol that integrates into the blood of every Chinese. No matter where, no matter what identity, as long as there is a Chinese, as soon as this time comes, Chinese will spontaneously celebrate the celebration. This emphasis on the Spring Festival is unimaginable to others. Yang Xing once again celebrated the Spring Festival in Beijing for the sake of "The Age of Girls". In addition to leading a large group of fiancées to visit relatives and friends everywhere, of course, he also secretly took them to wish him New Year's greetings to Cheng Canghai, the biggest backer in politics.

In the luxury house group now known as Xinghua Rose Garden, there is a villa community surrounded by mountains and water. Anyone who knows the goods knows that this is the hottest luxury house in Beijing in the past few years. It is said that each building is worth more than 10 million yuan. People living in it are either rich or noble. The largest ones were purchased as high-end clubs by famous forces in the capital. These clubs adopt a membership system and the membership fees are not expensive. Among them, the largest club called "Rose Villa" costs 20,000 US dollars, and the annual membership fee is tens of thousands of yuan. No one recommends you to open the door.

After 1997, because the former mayor, the young master, was scattered and built villas, and later made many mistakes. Xinghua Real Estate Company "picked up bargains" and bought at a low price in another major building in Beijing. For this reason, Beijing issued a ban, which did not allow the construction of luxury villas of certain specifications in the main urban area. Unexpectedly, it fulfilled the Rose Garden and World Park that started construction before the ban. As the only remaining newly built villa group in Beijing, housing prices naturally rose. Before the ban, the housing prices of rose garden villas reached US$2,000 square meters, and now it has risen to a point where ordinary people cannot get involved.

This also made the people in the capital talk about the miracle of resurrection in the Rose Garden. At that time, the project was desperate. The developer's Hong Kong boss was collected by many young men in Beijing and was almost hanging. As a result, he invited Yang Xing, a master, to give advice. When Yang Xing opened his golden finger at that time, he was not optimistic about Yang Xing, and the golden finger was revitalized by many people. The Hong Kong boss was convinced and convinced that Yang Xing became his subordinate.

This Hong Kong man named An Yili is now famous in the domestic real estate industry and is considered to be the "first person" in operating commercial real estate. The real estate promotion team he led not only helps his own developers to provide advice, but also takes on many other real estate market planning, and has achieved remarkable results. He also summarized a set of "urban center commercial transformation and reconstruction models", which are regarded as a criterion by industry insiders and believed to be sufficient as a textbook for domestic commercial real estate.

As an old man who Yang Xing regarded as both a teacher and a friend, Prime Minister Cheng Canghai secretly ran to the rose garden to drink a glass of engagement wine presented by Yang Xing and his fiancée, which gave Yang Xing a great face. After all, the Prime Minister of a country attended an engagement banquet for dozens of men and women. It must be a major scandal if it was rumored. It made Yang Xing grateful that Cheng Canghai was able to put down his airs and enjoy the glory in this way. It seems that this old man, who is famous for Fang Zheng, is not all upright in private, and still has a strong and tender heart.

The process of being too famous is too great. Except for Yang Xing, his fiancée and his parents who thought of meeting this iron-faced prime minister, Yang Xing considered that his villa was large but had many people and eyes, so he placed a seat in the "Rose Villa" club. On the surface, this club has little to do with him, but in fact it is a business of the He family. With strict access and confidentiality measures, the safety of their wine is safe.

Fortunately, Cheng Canghai is busy with work and he will talk about business every time he asks Yang Xing. This time it is already the first time to come to drink Yang Xing’s wedding wine. So after the meal is full, the two of them talk in detail separately. After Yang Xing reported on his cooperation with the military in aerospace satellites, the topic turned to the current economic form.

What Cheng Canghai is most upset about now is the transformation and loss turnover of state-owned enterprises. At that time, the goal of turning losses into profits in three years seems to be far away. The reform of many local state-owned enterprises has brought about a lot of unexpected social problems. The popularity of terms such as "laid off" and "reemployment" reflects the various obstacles encountered by reforms during this period. The reform of central state-owned enterprises faces the loss of competitiveness without reform, and once the reform is reformed, it has formed a dilemma of monopoly interest groups.

Some people also pin their hopes for reform on the stock market, but the stock market chaos has occurred frequently with no experience and management efforts, and they are ridiculed as the largest casino in China. The just-explosive "Zhongke Entrepreneurship" incident and famous economic experts' remarks that "China's stock market is a bubble" have caused the stock market to take a sharp turn, with vague signs of bear market signs. Recently, many state-owned enterprises have continued to make money in the name of reducing holdings of state-owned stocks, and learned the inside story of Cheng Canghai's expectations for the stock market to save state-owned enterprises have also faded a lot.

The deep impact of the Asian financial crisis that began in 1997 on my country has gradually emerged. In the past few years of Cheng Canghai's administration, domestic GDP growth has been unable to reproduce the double-digit momentum in the early 1990s. It has declined slightly in the past two years and has been hovering between 7-8. The central government knows that his difficulties have not been investigated in depth. The main reason is the tough problem of the state-owned enterprise reform.

Cheng Canghai did not regret this. He told Yang Xing that the 20th year of reform is now a hurdle, and the road to success is wider. Even if he is notorious for this and only serves as the prime minister for one term, he must pave the way for those who come later.

Yang Xing was speechless about this. He knew that after Cheng Canghai left in 2003, China's economy immediately entered the fast lane. The double-digit growth of many years has made foreign economists accustomed to it. Later, when we announced that the economy maintained 7-8 growth, we actually said that China's economy would land hard. We should really let them see China's current GDP growth rate. It's simply nonsense.

Cheng Canghai then turned to the strategic oil reserve plan proposed by Yang Xing. He finally felt frowning and became interested. "Your suggestions for preparing for the establishment of strategic oil reserves and the opinions on establishing my country's national strategic reserves in the Soviet Union's secret files. The central leaders found it inspiring after reading it. Recently, they are considering strengthening the protection and reserves of domestic rare mineral resources in addition to oil reserves. The State Council expert group also investigated the specific situation of strategic reserves in various countries around the world, and also believed that we should also start to establish our own strategic reserve system. You have made another contribution!"

Yang Xing thought that his efforts finally paid off. Last time, in order to build a strategic oil reserve for the port, Yang Xing did not want to show too utilitarianism. So based on his previous life experience and the information he had in hand, he put forward a complete set of ideas on establishing a national strategic reserve, which indeed touched the hearts of the central leaders.

Since mankind entered the mechanical era, the development of military technology in previous wars and the high demand for logistics support have made the ancient material reserve system such as food and clothing completely eliminated. A long list of raw materials such as oil, steel, and rubber were placed in front of every country that wanted to maintain its own safety. Therefore, hoarding strategic materials in peacetime and preparing for war has become a strategic event for all countries.

With the end of World War II, Germany, Japan and other defeated countries finally had powerful weapons, but due to lack of logistics material, they learned a heavy lesson from announcing surrender. The US-Soviet nuclear war was shrouded in the sky. Once the war started, there was no sufficient material reserves and the threat of the country's destruction and the seed was threatened. Major countries around the world began to vigorously build their own strategic reserves.

Russia learned from the Soviet Union. In order to survive and win the nuclear war, it adopted a department to be fully responsible for the national strategic reserves. The Russian Federal Reserve Agency was responsible for the strategic reserves of all Russia. Its status is comparable to that of the Ministry of Defense, the Federal Security Bureau and other departments, but its related activities are state secrets. Its warehouse collections are extremely wide and it is the most diverse strategic reserve in the world. The warehouse has reserved 13,000 products, food and raw materials, from seeds to iron blocks, from generators to rockets, which can be said to be all-inclusive and full of them.

Compared with the "nationalization" characteristics of Russia's strategic reserves, European and American countries have embarked on the road of strategic "privatization". Most European countries do not take charge of strategic reserves, but adopt the form of "stored and stored for the people". The strategic reserves of European countries mainly include three aspects: material reserves, financial reserves and energy reserves. Although the national reserve warehouses are not as good as Russia, they also have more than 10,000 "treasures" and are dazzling.

These reserves are roughly divided into three categories, including conventional ones such as petroleum, steel, grain, chemical raw materials, medical supplies, etc.; special ones such as nickel, lead, chromium and other precious and rare metals; modern ones such as biochemical vaccines, computer chips, and even computer viruses. As for storage locations, they are generally placed in military storage facilities, and their storage and operation are state secrets.

The most worry-free thing is the United States. According to US laws, the US strategic and emergency reserve list only has 93 kinds of materials, but the quantity is amazing. The United States is also a typical "stored to the people", and large enterprises such as the "military-industrial consortium" that are closely linked to the upper level of the United States have built their own strategic reserves to achieve their goal of "socialized" collection.

Although the United States has only one National Defense Materials Reserve Center, it can convert money into actual materials at any time with the status of the six major reserve funds under the Ministry of Defense and the world currency of the US dollar. For some rare mineral resources such as rare earths, the US military still chooses to establish its own storage storage.

In fact, the domestic market also attaches great importance to strategic reserves. During the Cold War, we were both anti-US and Soviet, so there was a scene where major cities dug air-raid shelters to store strategic materials. However, the slogan of "digging deep holes and accumulating grain" was still in my ears, and a major change in economic development at home and abroad was ushered in after the reform and opening up. The atmosphere of ready to fight at any time disappeared, and words such as air-raid shelters and strategic reserves were getting farther and farther away from us, and they became a little unfamiliar.
