Chapter 953 [Lu Quan’s return and revival]

At the symposium, the media reporters here all hoped that Fang Hong could continue to increase his firepower output, so that tomorrow's headlines would be interesting and interesting.

However, Fang Hong could bear it and did not continue to increase his firepower. After all, this was an annual meeting of a high-end forum, not a place for swearing.

What he said was so powerful that it was inappropriate for the officials to say it. However, Fang Hong was not a member of the system, so what he said represented the position of the people. When the time comes for pressure from Europe and the United States, the officials would have room to mediate.

Well, this is a private position, and Fang Hong’s remarks do not represent the official position.

Officials actually hope that someone will come forward and say this, but few other entrepreneurs, especially the bosses of multinational companies, dare to do this because they are afraid of offending Europe and the United States.

But Fang Hong and Qunxing Capital are obviously exceptions. They are not afraid at all. Everyone knows that he is such a fierce man. After all, everyone now knows that he is a man who does not give any face to Wall Street. Wall Street capital comes to his place. They are all still open and boring.

There are many smart people in the audience, and some can understand. They once again deeply realize that no one in the mainland can defeat Fang Hong, and with this awareness and awareness, it is unlikely that he will be able to defeat Fang Hong in Zhengzhi. Make mistakes on the level.

At the same time, Fang Hong on the stage said: "According to our internal data model analysis and estimation, the 'One Road, One Belt' initiative is expected to create nearly 500,000 jobs in third world countries by the tenth anniversary. This will lift 8 million people out of extreme poverty and 35 million people out of moderate poverty."

This statement surprised everyone in the audience, and they didn't know whether Fang Hong was trying to use satellites to spread the pie, or whether he could really achieve what he said.

Fang Hong didn't know what everyone was thinking, but he said calmly and confidently: "In a narrow sense, the 'One Road, One Belt' initiative has developed a huge market for our country. If we want to break the industrial blockade in Europe and the United States, we must develop new ones." Market, third world countries are a good choice for us, and for developing countries along the 'One Road, One Belt' initiative, the cheap goods and industrial systems in the Greater China market can help them achieve industrialization faster."

“In a broad sense, the ‘One Road, One Belt’ initiative is a brand-new world economic and trade system in the future era of globalization that truly achieves multilateral mutual benefit and win-win results, and truly enables all mankind to realize a community with a shared future.”

At the end, the people in the audience applauded again.

In fact, there are still some things that Fang Hong did not say. For example, we cannot grow cotton for Western countries forever. We also need to be high-end industries, and this is the return of "land power" for more than 300 years.

The key to the rise of sea power that began more than 300 years ago is that the cost of maritime transportation is much lower than that of land transportation.

But the times are developing, science and technology are also advancing, and new technologies have brought variables and ushered in changes. The development of ultra-high voltage transmission technology, high-speed rail technology, and new energy technology will significantly reduce the cost of land transportation.

Driven by new technologies, Lu Quan has the possibility of revival and return.

Another key point is that Europe and East Asia already have dense railway networks, and only a few high-speed rail arteries are needed to connect the two places.

Although sea transportation will still have an advantage, as long as the high-speed rail connecting the Eurasian continent appears, it will also have an advantage that sea transportation can never match - efficiency.

No matter how fast sea transportation takes dozens of days, but with high-speed rail transportation, it only takes two days to travel directly from East Asia to Western Europe.

Fruits such as bananas produced in Southeast Asia take dozens of days to reach Europe by sea. They have long since rotted, or require higher costs to preserve. It is not cost-effective in any case. However, it can be shipped to Europe in two days via high-speed rail. Europe, and there is no need to spend a lot of money to preserve goods.

For products with a short shelf life that need to be delivered to the consumer market within a short period of time, the advantages of land high-speed rail transportation can be reflected, while sea transportation cannot do this.

These are all achievable in the foreseeable future, and looking at the longer term, if the "greenhouse superconducting" technology is breakthrough and commercialized one day in the future, the cost of land transportation will once again skyrocket. With the sudden drop, the cost advantage of sea and land transportation has disappeared.

By then, the "World Island" of the Eurasian continent will take shape, and several high-speed rail lines across the Eurasian continent will become the economic artery of the "World Island", while America will become an isolated island overseas.

Land power will definitely return and flourish again, and sea power will no longer dominate the world in the near future.

The "Earth Online" under the new version is definitely an epic "weakening" for America. You, America, control the choke points of the world's seas. If I don't let you pass, it means that you control it. Feeling lonely.

Of course, the big eastern countries will not make a choice, but want them all.

Land power must be revitalized, and sea power must also develop its own strength. The "One Road, One Belt" initiative is not limited to land, but also has maritime ideas. It focuses on comprehensive development and is not partial to science.

As the symposium ended, Fang Hong left and did not go back to the hotel. Instead, he went directly to the airport to catch his special plane and fly back to the new city.

The annual meeting of this forum will be held for two more days. Fang Hong will not participate in the following activities, but the stars are still there. Xu Jingren and Qin Feng will also be invited to participate in some sub-forum activities in the next two days. Leave it to the younger brothers to show off.

One of the highlights of the Boao Forum for Asia Annual Conference is undoubtedly the activities and sub-forums that Galaxy participated in, especially Fang Hong’s speech and symposium, which were widely reported by the media after the conclusion.

What he said at the symposium, "The light of the Western lighthouse is doomed to eclipse in the face of the Eastern sun" was regarded as a golden saying by the majority of netizens. The title of the media report quoted this sentence, and the self-media also quoted it. Netizens are also retweeting it in various ways.

The word "Eastern Sun" has another special meaning in the land of China. It has another kind of emotion for the people living on this land, which makes people unconsciously think of the great teacher.

You must know that the arrogant America was once teased by his old man at that time, and she once considered withdrawing from the United Nations because she was really beaten to the point of losing her temper.

When Ami intervened in the Vietnam War in the early 1970s, he drew a red line for Ami: Do not cross the 17th parallel.

As soon as this warning came out, Ami, in order not to leave any excuse for the Eastern powers to intervene, immediately ordered the troops on the front line to inform them that they were absolutely not allowed to cross the 17th parallel. From the beginning to the end, they did not dare to cross the Lei Chi. Not a single Ami soldier crossed it. The boundary of the land north of this red line.

And at the "turn of the century" that broke the ice, when America's top leader came to visit, the photo of him bowing his head and groveling in front of the elderly is the best historical portrayal.

Apart from his old man, there is no other existence on the surface of Blue Star that can make the arrogant Ami assume such a low profile.

From this point of view, the light of the western lighthouse is indeed eclipsed by the eastern sun.
