Technological Supremacy Chapter 452: Wei Gudao.Chinese.Moving the capital
In the waters of eastern Indonesia, Weigu Island.
Sun, surf, and sand.
Listening to the chirping of seagulls above his head and smelling the salty smell of the sea in his nostrils, Luo Jia relaxed his whole body, his pores stretched comfortably, enjoying a moment of leisure and tranquility.
Whether he went to Korea before or accompanied his parents to Malaysia for the Spring Festival, Luo Jia always came and went in a hurry, dragging a 20-inch aluminum alloy suitcase, so busy that he had no time to enjoy the scenery outside the window.
As a believer in the theory of cost, Luo Jia feels that this is probably the price that needs to be paid in order to achieve the goal.
It's like you want to lose weight, but after you carefully read the composition and description of all the foods, you will sadly find that any food that can make you healthier is all **** unpalatable.
Health comes at a price, no one can eat cream cakes and sing songs and be healthy and slim at the same time, no one.
Luo Jia turned over on the bench by the beach, let herself lie on her side, then picked up the mango juice on the table, and took a few sips lazily.
In the distance, there is a group of girls who are vacationing here, with long blond and chestnut hair, slender legs, sky-defying chest, thin waist, and unhealthy white skin.
They should be of Slavic descent. They have dealt with the Wen family brothers a lot. Now Luo Jia is used to observing strangers from an anthropological perspective. Although they are suspected of racial discrimination, there is indeed a huge gap between different races. difference.
For example, the entire African continent did not invent any kind of writing for a long time before the arrival of the colonists.
This is a unique phenomenon among all races on the earth. The short blacks in the South Asian subcontinent and the American Indians are all bullied miserably. However, even so, the Indians invented pictographs and languages, and even more Not to mention the mysterious Inca and Aztec civilizations.
Anyway, you live in this complicated world, and you don’t need to say some things, but you must understand in your heart which are facts and which are so-called "facts" modified by political correctness.
Luo Jia withdrew his gaze. He was used to living alone. Having a girlfriend meant spending time. Luo Jia had already tried it. Six hours of companionship costs at eleven o'clock on Monday.
Accompaniment cost is a vocabulary invented by Luo Jia himself, which means how much time a man has to spend on his girlfriend, so that his girlfriend can feel that he has not been left out, and thus will not produce the spiritual power called resentment.
Luo Jia even designed a mathematical model for this purpose. By incorporating data such as his girlfriend's personality traits, education level, and independence tendency into the model, he can calculate the time, energy, and money he needs to spend on his girlfriend every week. etc.
The result is obvious. Hiraba Sakura is already known to Luo Jia, the most obedient and easy-to-satisfy girl. She still needs to spare 11.6 hours a week to be by her side, take her to eat, watch movies, etc. wait.
Assuming that Ye Wuchen is replaced with a more personality, the cost of companionship will not be less than seventeen hours a week, so in the end, Luo Jia concluded that long live single.
At this time, Xu Chunbiao came to Luo Jia and whispered to him: "The special envoy of the President of Indonesia has arrived."
Luo Jia nodded, stood up from the beach chair, and walked towards the hotel behind him.
…
Luo Jia changed into formal clothes and came to the banquet hall. It happened that the special envoy of the president had already put down his luggage and was chatting with Lu Junlin.
The name of the special envoy is Zhou Rui. He is about 30 years old. He is an Indonesian Chinese. His family runs mines and shipping. He is quite famous in the local area. He lives in Bandung, a famous Chinese-inhabited city in central Java.
"President Jibutuo wants me to take him to say hello to you." Zhou Rui greeted Luo Jia with a smile, and said in very proficient Chinese: "Mr. President has something important to do and can't come in person. He We deeply regret this."
It was just polite words, Luo Jia smiled and greeted, the three sat down at a round table, and then ordered the waiter to serve.
They eat Western food today, the menu has already been drawn up by the executive chef. There are five courses in total including appetizers and desserts. Because the main course is lobster, Luo Jia ordered a bottle of white wine, Margaux Blanche produced in 2002 , looks like more than two thousand dollars.
"I don't know what it's like to live overseas as a Chinese. Is it going well with the locals?" Luo Jia asked curiously. He didn't get straight to the point of business, but chatted with Zhou Rui first. God.
Zhou Rui smiled, "To be honest, we rarely get along with the locals. We live in a completely different world. As for the Chinese, it also depends on the blood. Long, traditional Chinese communities like Surabaya will not take them in. The only choice for mixed-race Chinese is to go to Jakarta. The capital area is not as clear-cut as traditional Chinese cities, so it is more tolerant.”
Nani?
Isn't this the legendary apartheid?
Luo Jia touched his chin with his hand, and asked more curiously: "What kind of existence is the Chinese community, a small world isolated from the locals?"
"Basically it is." Zhou Rui nodded and said: "Take the Chinese community in Bandung where I live as an example. Generally, there will be at least two servants in a family, and these two servants are usually husband and wife. Responsible for the garden, water and electricity, and the maid is responsible for cleaning and cooking.”
"Among the Chinese who have poorer economic conditions, although they will also hire servants, these servants are usually part-time and serve several families at the same time."
"The cost of hiring a servant is not high. The salary of 2,000 yuan per month is enough for two aboriginal couples. In addition, there are a small number of bankrupt or poor Chinese who will work as servants, but the cost is expensive. Hiring a servant Chinese maids need to pay 6,000 yuan per month, and very few rich families in the community can afford Chinese maids.”
Lu Junlin frowned slightly and said: "According to what you said, the local Chinese in Indonesia are quite rich. After all, the worst thing is to be a maid, and you can earn 6,000 yuan a month."
Zhou Rui said with a smile: "Basically, it is, but both of you must understand that my father is seventy-three years old this year, and he still works ten hours a day, four days a month, and he will live in the In a mining area with extremely poor conditions, if the local aborigines are willing to endure hardships like the Chinese, I believe they will not be so poor. However, this prerequisite does not exist. As long as the locals have today's dinner, they will not be poor I will consider the issue of being hungry tomorrow morning.”
"It's really difficult to integrate different races and cultures." Luo Jia shrugged his shoulders, "In the past, I only heard that in the African region, the Chinese were so disgusted with the local black uncles that they hated iron and steel, and didn't bother to talk to them. After all the good men went to Africa, they all became nationalists when they came back, and I didn’t expect the same situation in Indonesia.”
Zhou Ruidao: "I have never been to Africa, but in Bandung, the Chinese community has its own clothing store and imports clothes from Guangzhou. Chinese with a little status generally don't wear locally made clothes."
"Almost every Chinese family has a car, and they don't know how to take the local bus system. I remember that when I was in junior high school, I went to the suburbs and couldn't get a taxi, so I wanted to take the bus, but it happened to be done by the community. I met my uncle in the grain and oil business, and he asked the driver to take me home, and he firmly refused to allow me to take the bus.”
"You may not believe it. In Bandung, our own supermarkets and stores, locals are not allowed to enter. Unless they are maids from Chinese families, the security guards at the gate will let them in."
I'm going!
Is there such an operation?
A sense of sight that local people and dogs are not allowed to enter arises spontaneously. Luo Jia and Lu Junlin are so dumbfounded that they are speechless.
Seeing Luo Jia and Lu Junlin's surprised look, Zhou Rui took a sip of mineral water and said in a rational voice: "This is probably the so-called clash of civilizations. Looking at the world is by no means an exception. A white North American would not Those who live in black neighborhoods, and vice versa.”
That's true...
Luo Jia nodded slightly. North America is a pure immigrant country, known as the beacon of freedom and civilization. If even they can't achieve racial integration, how can they blame the Indonesian Chinese.
The painful experience that happened in South Africa told us the fact that different is different, and the circle is different, so don't force yourself.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Luo Jia and the President's special envoy Zhou Rui chatted very happily.
The group behind the current president is the Chinese community. Zhou Rui is the representative of the Chinese community. After the dessert was removed, he said: "Mr. Luo, Mr. Lu, you should know that Indonesia has decided to move its capital."
Luo Jia smiled slightly and nodded lightly, indicating that he knew about it.
Greater Jakarta, composed of Jakarta and surrounding cities, has a permanent population of more than 30 million and is the second largest urban agglomeration in the world, second only to Tokyo.
The population density of Jakarta has reached an astonishing 15,000 people per square kilometer. What is this concept?
Huaxia’s capital is seriously congested and polluted, which has been criticized for a long time. However, the population density of the capital is only 1,300 people per square kilometer, which is less than one-tenth of Jakarta. It can be seen from this that the capital of Indonesia is renamed The first block is almost the same.
What's worse is that Jakarta is close to the sea. It used to be a big swamp, and the land keeps subsiding every year. If we don't hurry up to find a solution and let it continue to develop, half of the city will sink into the sea in the future.
"I don't believe that a professional politician will be single-minded, only for the welfare of the people." After thinking for a while, Luo Jia said lightly: "The move of the capital has been called for almost 30 years, and several presidents have not been able to do it. Cheng~IndoMTL.com~ If this matter can be completed within the term of President Jibutuo, his name will definitely go down in history. In addition to the benefits brought by such a big project as moving the capital, President Jibutuo will definitely gain both fame and fortune. "
"Secondly, the opposition has been having a lot of trouble recently. The president can use the name of moving the capital to adjust the organization to keep those who disobey him in Jakarta, leaving them far away from the center of power, slowly rotting, and eventually being forgotten by the world. The new big city established on Kalimantan Island will become the stage for Jibutuo and his allies to perform."
"It's not so much about moving the capital as it is about the struggle and change of power. I don't know if I'm right, Mr. Zhou Rui?"
Luo Jia smiled and looked at Zhou Rui.
Zhou Rui was silent at first, then nodded slightly, acknowledging Luo Jia's judgment.
Luo Jia let out a long breath, his eyes suddenly became sharp and he said: "Understood, Xingchen Technology will do its best to help President Jibutuo complete the plan to move the capital, and the Chinese community you represent is the president's behind-the-scenes funder. I believe you will also take action?"
Zhou Rui clenched his fists slowly, and said word by word: "Yes, this time, our Chinese community will stand at the center of power at all costs to ensure that the tragedy will not happen again."
