These Japanese were obviously "frogs at the bottom of a well". They had obviously been to Hua Xia once in the 1980s, and this was their second time here. They had not had the time to experience the changes in Hua Xia.
After getting off the plane, they sat in the business reception car with the privacy curtains drawn and sent them to the hotel entrance. They did not even look out of the window on the way because they felt that Hua Xia was nothing to see!
This hotel could only be considered as above average in the local area, but it was boasted by the lobby manager as the most awesome hotel in the "country"!
That was why they looked down on Hua Xia and felt that the most awesome hotel in the country was only so-so.
In fact, the reason why these Japanese were so arrogant was because of the private car driver who received them to the hotel, the hotel lobby manager who received them, and all the Hua Xia people who received them.
And these people were all born in the 1980s. There was no intention of slandering the people born in the 1980s, because people born in the 1980s were the most affected. Children born two thousand years later would never think that Hua Xia was weaker than foreign countries, because Hua Xia had begun to become prosperous at that time. People began to live in buildings, and people began to be able to afford cars.
But all of this was different in the past. Those stubborn people who believed that "the moon in foreign countries is rounder" would influence many young people in China through their books, movies, blogs, and Weibo. This kind of subtle influence caused many young people living in today's powerful China to have a perception of China and foreign countries that remained in the 1980s.
Of course, a large part of the contribution of Hua Xia's prosperity was the contribution of the people born in the 1980s. Because they had been stimulated, they were more eager to change the gap between Hua Xia and foreign countries.
More than half of the people on the Wealth Langya List were born in the 1980s, which also meant that the changes in Hua Xia were inextricably linked to them.
How weak was Hua Xia in the 1980s? At that time, not only were there powerful developed countries like England, France, Germany, Japan, and the United States above Hua Xia, there were also the Four Little Dragons of Asia, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, and South Korea. There was also the so-called Four Tigers of Asia. Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, and Philippines, they all dared to strut around Hua Xia!
It was as if any country or region was stronger than Hua Xia!
Those who had experienced it in that era would definitely know this feeling very well!
It was because of this influence that the Hua Xia people still felt that they were not as superior as the foreigners. That was why the lobby manager was so humble in front of the Japanese!
There were a lot of people who thought that they were inferior to others.
Xia Qiuyu really couldn't stand it. She had interacted with many people like this when she was abroad. Of course, the people she had interacted with were far better than this lobby manager.
The people Xia Qiuyu had interacted with were the best in Hua Xia's scientific research and the most outstanding group of people. They all chose to leave Hua Xia in that era because they felt that there was no hope for their motherland.
This was especially true for those high-tech talents who studied aerospace, aircraft manufacturing, modern ships, engines, and other subjects! Many outstanding talents chose to leave their motherland Hua Xia.
Although most of them could only work part-time in small companies for the rest of their lives, they still left Hua Xia without hesitation.
Because Hua Xia didn't have any platform for them to display their technical talents, and they could earn a salary of thousands or even tens of thousands a month abroad. This was almost equivalent to a lifetime salary in a domestic research institute.
In that era, it was amazing to be able to earn a salary of 100 yuan. Everyone who had experienced that era knew that.
In 1980, the average person only had a monthly wage of 20 to 30 yuan! This was only for people who had a salary. Many Hua Xia people didn't have a salary at all!
To eat steamed buns, they had to exchange wheat for them. This situation existed even in the 1990s.
Of course, there were also some scientists who chose to stay. They were people who grew up with Hua Xia. In fact, some of them didn't do it out of patriotism, but because they weren't the best group of people and didn't meet the standards for western countries to take them in. Therefore, they had to choose to stay and stand with their country.
But now? Now it was proven that these people who stayed had achieved great things!
As for the group of people who chose to leave, they wasted their lives and talents in silence.
That's right! On September 15, 2016, at 22: 04, the first real space laboratory, Tiangong-2, was lifted into space by the Long March-2 FT2 carrier rocket.
"Tiangong-2" was successfully launched!
Over the years, Hua Xia aircraft carrier, Tiangong-2 space laboratory series, Shenzhou spacecraft, stealth fighters, nuclear fusion, Type 096 nuclear submarine, Type 056 destroyer, 99-A tank, multi-core mobile phone chips, IT hardware, CNC equipment, precision processing, Beidou satellite navigation system, and other national treasures were continuously developed!
The people who created them were destined to leave their names in history!
Hua Xia people kept writing their stories because the process of catching up was difficult, the struggle, and the huge sacrifices were rarely seen in the world!
When they were born in the 1980s, not to mention the English Premier League and the United States, even Singapore was an insurmountable mountain.
But now? Hua Xia's GDP was already at the top of the world!
"You Hua Xia people are nothing! Do you know how rich we Japanese are? " The Japanese woman glared and said, "You dare to challenge us in front of us? Do you believe that we Japanese will smash you to death with money!"
"Looks like you really think you Japanese are very powerful. I'm sorry, but let me tell you, our Hua Xia's GDP is more than twice that of your Japanese!" Xia Qiuyu glared and said, "It's not certain who will smash who with money!"
The Japanese woman had already started to make a scene. "You're just a Hua Xia person who has never left the country! You don't know how advanced other countries are! Even a small island like Taiwan is more developed than you! "
"I've never left the country?" Xia Qiuyu sneered. "Today, I'll tell you who's the one who hasn't left the country! You Four Little Dragons and Four Little Tigers who used to flaunt your prowess have long been crushed by the financial crisis! After Taiwan's so-called democracy, all its economic lifelines were handed over to the United States. As a result, the development of this economically developed region that used to be far ahead of the mainland has completely stagnated, right? "
The Japanese woman was stunned. She had been to Taiwan before, so she knew that there was no development there after the 1990s.
"The various modern buildings that made countless Hua Xia people envious in those years look so ordinary now. Let me tell you, the shopping malls and business districts in any second-tier city in Hua Xia are more modern and fashionable than the most prosperous core area in Taipei!" Xia Qiuyu said.
The Japanese woman was speechless.
"Singapore used to be a garden country. Nothing has changed in the past 30 years. The salary of this generation is still the same as the salary of the previous generation!" Xia Qiuyu said, "Do you know Hua Xia? 30 years ago, the monthly salary of an ordinary person was only a few dozen RMB! Now, the monthly salary of an ordinary person is thousands to tens of thousands of RMB! "
Back then, Singapore had only planted a few coconut trees in the city center and installed automatic sprinklers. That was why the group of people who went abroad in the 1980s called it a garden country. They had been bragging about it ever since.
Now, it seemed that the exclamations of envy back then were so laughable.
"Then, look at Korea! Their average income is much higher than yours! "The Japanese woman was still clamoring.
"Don't think that Japan and Korea are rich. Why don't you take a look at your quality of life?" Xia Qiuyu continued, "After the financial crisis, a large number of entrepreneurs ran away without paying their salaries. Today, even eating pork ribs is a luxury in Korea. Moreover, they often ask for help from Hua Xia because of the shortage of cabbage! Our Hua Xia exports cabbage at a price of a few RMB per cabbage out of humanitarianism. Over there, the price soars to more than 100 RMB per cabbage because of the scarcity! With such prices, what's there to be proud of with their income? "
Without waiting for the Japanese woman to speak, Xia Qiuyu continued, "You Japanese are rich? Hmph … Do you think you Japanese are living well? How many married wives have to film those action romance movies to support their families? How many girls have to go to the streets to have sex with uncles because their families can't afford them? Don't you Japanese know that? "
Hearing Xia Qiuyu say that, Yang Ya also gained some confidence, "You're slapping your face, right? Our GDP has already surpassed yours! Shut up! "
