Chapter 242 I love you, the motherland(1/2)
Li Huishan thought that Lu Yiming would not choose her to ask questions, but now it was obvious that the development of the matter was beyond her expectation, as if she did not know why she raised her hand.
It's probably because the atmosphere has already been set up here.
Li Huishan stood up, thought for a moment, then took the microphone handed to her and said to Lu Yiming very seriously: "Have you, an outstanding business genius like you, ever considered immigrating to Europe and the United States?"
In Li Huishan's heart, her biggest wish is to immigrate. She feels that everything abroad is very good. They are strict enough to be fired if they don't wash the dishes seven times. There are clean toilets and clean and hygienic water to drink. German.
There are oil-paper bags for storing spare parts in the sewers. It doesn’t get waterlogged when it rains in New York. You can even read a book or newspaper on the subway...
But she has no money, but she needs a lot of money to go abroad.
She feels that those with money will definitely choose to immigrate. After all, everyone has the right to pursue a better life.
Rich people naturally have more rights.
Therefore, Lu Yiming will definitely choose to immigrate.
If possible, she would also like Lu Yiming to take her with him.
The reason why Lu Yiming ordered Li Huishan was actually because he was curious about what kind of refreshing and weird questions someone like Li Huishan, who has a higher eye than her head, would ask.
The result is both unexpected and reasonable.
This question is neither strange nor strange. It is even the common voice and emotion of most people in this era. Many people work diligently every day just to save money for immigration. This is especially true for young people who have received Western education.
The land where he was born and raised is a garbage dump, and their lifelong belief is to leave the quagmire at their feet and rush to the paradise of the West.
There, even if you are sleeping on the streets as a dog, you can still live with more dignity and freedom than in the motherland.
Not to mention the distance, even at the scene, many young people involuntarily straightened their spines, opened their notebooks, took out their pens, and planned to write down "Lu Yiming's twenty suggestions for young people to go abroad."
Lu Yiming glanced at Li Huishan with a half-smile, then shook his head decisively: "I am deeply proud to be a Xia national, so I will never consider immigrating in this life."
This answer is not only difficult for Li Huishan to accept, but also makes other people feel incomprehensible.
You are so rich but you don’t immigrate?
Is your brain not normal?
Li Huishan immediately asked in confusion: "Why don't you consider immigrating? With your extraordinary talent in business, can you get better development by going to a developed country? I heard that the mainland is poor and backward, while Europe and the United States are prosperous, powerful, and rich.
There are obviously more opportunities.”
Not only Li Huishan thought this way, but everyone present also thought so.
Even Zhu Hanwen, the head teacher who came to Xiangjiang from the mainland, felt that Li Huishan's words were unpleasant and made him feel very uncomfortable, but he could not refute them.
The Xia State in 1998 was really synonymous with poverty and backwardness.
Although the domestic GDP ranks seventh in the world, on a per capita basis, it ranks directly outside the 100th place, ranking 120th, lower than Equatorial New Guinea, which still has active cannibals.
Such objective economic conditions make it impossible to refute the disdain and discrimination from powerful countries.
Therefore, in this era, it is also the most enthusiastic time to go abroad. Many people in China dream of going abroad to get a green card. In their view, even if they go abroad to wash dishes or work in a restaurant, it is better than staying at home.
Lu Yiming held the microphone, and his speechless silence was just like his complicated and indescribable mood at the moment.
After a long time, he stretched his eyebrows and said in a serious tone: "I admit that what classmate Li Huishan said is very reasonable. At this time, Xia State is still poor and backward. This is an irrefutable objective fact, and there is nothing hard to admit.
Yes. But as the old saying goes, a son does not think his mother is ugly, and a person's origin and bloodline cannot be chosen."
Li Huishan was very proud when she heard this. She felt that she had shaken Lu Yiming's belief, so she immediately hit the rails while the iron was hot: "So, do you think I am right? Then have you changed your mind? I think people like you
Geniuses really shouldn't stay in the mainland, where there is no soil for commercial development, and there is no free air, which will only bury your talents."
However, Lu Yiming said more firmly: "No, I said before, I will not leave my motherland. I love this land deeply."
Hearing Lu Yiming's answer, Li Huishan was angry and anxious: "How come your vision and knowledge are so narrow? You know, business has no borders. You know that there are more opportunities in developed countries in Europe and the United States, but you choose to stay in the mainland.
You just said that choice is more important than hard work, is this how you choose?"
In Li Huishan's view, the choice made by Lu Yiming was really unwise.
And Lu Yiming's answer happened to be just like what Li Huishan said, it was a slap in the face. Just after he said that choice is more important than ability, in the blink of an eye he became inseparable again.
There was a lot of discussion in the audience.
"That's wrong. Didn't you just say that choice is more important? Now you can choose to go abroad for development, but you still say that you stay at home?"
"Isn't this guy trying to gain fame and play the patriotic card? Maybe he has already secretly obtained a foreign passport."
"It's a shame that I still regard what he just said as a golden rule. It's boring. Let's just let it go."
"I just saw a sentence a few days ago, anti-Americanism is work, and going to the United States is life. It seems..."
As he was talking, some people started to get up and leave the table.
However, in the face of everyone's doubts, Lu Yiming proudly puffed up his chest and his tone became passionate: "Business has no national boundaries, but businessmen have nationalities. And I am very happy that I am a descendant of the Yan and Huang Dynasties, because the Xia Kingdom is
It is a great country, and the Han people are even more of a great nation. Our motherland is on the road to rejuvenation. In my opinion, immigrating at this time is really stupid. Staying in the country will be the best choice for our generation.
The best choice for people.”
Li Huishan was very upset after hearing this, because she had always dreamed of going abroad, but Lu Yiming said that immigrants are fools. Isn't this a slap in her face?
Coupled with the fact that her ideal of "preparing to go abroad with Lu Yiming" was shattered, Li Huishan couldn't help but assert: "I don't know where you got the confidence. Xia State wants to rise? Who believes this? On the contrary, it is
With your talents and abilities, you will definitely regret staying in Xia Kingdom."
From an overlooking perspective, Lu Yiming looked at Li Huishan coldly in the audience: "American stock god Warren Buffett once said that you should never short your own country. He is very lucky because he happened to live during a period when America's national power was rising, and he had
It happened that he chose to bet on his own country, so he took the
The rocket of wealth has become a stock god, and I have made astonishing wealth from the stock market. I also assert that my motherland, just like the United States back then, is also taking advantage of the trend and spreading its wings. Even if I am just a businessman
Identity, there are enough reasons to bet on your own motherland!"
The name of the stock god Buffett is well-known even in Hong Kong, and he is as famous as the richest man Bill Gates.
Therefore, the example given by Lu Yiming is very convincing to everyone.
This is also true. Everyone listened with rapt attention. After all, the man standing on the podium at this time made his own fortune and became a billionaire at the age of only seventeen.
For everyone present, it may be the only time in their lives that they can listen to Lu Yiming talk about his story of getting rich at such a close distance.
Lu Yiming held the microphone tightly, and his ups and downs tone was clearly transmitted to everyone's ears.
"Today's Xia Kingdom, like the United States after World War II, has a rapid economic development and is in a period of rising national power. All poverty and backwardness are only temporary. And because there is a lot of waste to be developed, there are more opportunities. If
If you want to work peacefully, then go abroad, the wages there are indeed higher than in the mainland..."
"But if you want to start a business and become a billionaire, then listen carefully to me. The scenery here in Xia Country is unique! Only when you return to your motherland, in this land where classes have not yet been solidified, can you have
It is possible to achieve a class jump and embrace an infinitely bright future!"
"Furthermore, the motherland has endured a hundred years of suffering and is now in dire straits. It may not be glamorous enough, and its skills may not be as good as others, but isn't this the reason why we, the Chinese people, should build it up? If a person does not have himself,
motherland, no
Loving one's own motherland is like a tree without roots and a bird without a nest. It is doomed to wander, doomed to be weak, and doomed to not be able to withstand the storm! We, the hundreds of millions of compatriots, should work together and fight bravely to build a prosperous, strong and harmonious country.
The Xia Kingdom!"
"Five thousand years ago, we faced floods like the Egyptians. Four thousand years ago, we played with bronzes like the ancient Babylonians. Three thousand years ago, we thought about philosophy like the Greeks. Two thousand years ago, we went to war like the Romans.
Thousands of years ago, we were as rich as the Arabs, but now we are competing with the Americans. For five thousand years, we have been on the world's poker table, but our opponents have changed several rounds."
"We have experienced countless hardships, but we have always stood firm. How could such a nation and such a culture be knocked down by a mere hundred years of backwardness? Your vision is too narrow! Your knowledge is too superficial! You only see what is in front of you.
But I am looking at the future!"
"My future is to breathe the same breath and share the same destiny with my nation and my country; my future is to make progress together with the country and become prosperous; my future is to accompany my motherland, catch up with the Premier League and the United States, and let all nations
Come to the DPRK to make their citizens envy our country, just like you envy them now!"
Lu Yiming almost shouted the last sentence.
His face turned slightly red and tears filled his eyes.
He has bright eyes and a firm mind.
Under the stage, there was thunderous applause and constant screaming.
Zhu Hanwen's blood boiled when he heard this.
Several old people who had feelings for their family and country even wiped away tears secretly, their white temples swaying in the wind.
Lu Jiajia looked at Lu Yiming with bright eyes, making no secret of her appreciation for Lu Yiming.
"It turns out that our young people in Xia Country can be so confident and flamboyant."
Lin Yuzhen also had stars in her eyes, and her palms turned red: "This annoying guy, it's rare for him to be heard even once he speaks."
People were cheering. After all, we are all descendants of Yan and Huang. As Lu Yiming said, you have no choice about your origin and bloodline, but your future is bright, suffering is only temporary, and we all have a bright future.
In this world, sweet words can only deceive for a while, only the truth and truth can touch people's hearts.
However, there are still many people who have been influenced by foreign ideas for a long time and remain unmoved.
Looking at Lu Yiming, who was shining brightly on the podium and attracting much attention, Li Huishan was very unconvinced. No matter how impassioned Lu Yiming's words were, she always believed that Xia Guo was inferior to others and that the mainland was not good enough. Only by going abroad and immigrating could one be as outstanding as herself.
The only way out for talents.
She didn't know whether her motherland would develop in the future, but the current prosperity in Europe and the United States was real.
