Apocalypse Girl Becomes a Tycoon in the 1970s

After surviving the apocalypse for five years, Lin Ximan is finally sacrificed as cannon fodder. But she wakes up one month before the apocalypse begins.

She sells her house and hoards suppli...

Chapter 80: Small talk

Lin Ximan went to school the next day. There was nothing she could do as she was still a student and had no freedom!

The Lin family father and son have never lived in this courtyard. Although Lin's father lived in China when he was young, he also lived in a foreign-style building in Haishi. Lin Jiadong was born and raised abroad, a typical ABC.

This courtyard house is a unique style in the north, so both father and son are very interested in it. Lin Ximan also decorated the house very beautifully.

After the two finished the tour, they didn't remember how they felt about the house, but they were very shocked by the home appliances.

The best department stores in China nowadays are the Overseas Chinese Stores in Kyoto and Haishi. They have been to both stores. The things inside are good things for people in China, but they are nothing to them.

But what did they see in this house? They saw home appliances that are not available abroad! Their family is also a wealthy family, but they have never seen these things. Do you think they are good things?

Lin Ximan was unaware of their shock, because the house was an old one and was renovated by an outsider, so they didn't dare to use anything too advanced.

When her own construction company matures, she wants to build an ultra-modern building that will definitely be a hundred years ahead of the current world! Just thinking about it makes me happy!

It's unknown what the father and son said to each other before they went out and made phone calls. Lin Ximan's home didn't have a telephone installed yet. There was nothing they could do about it. Times had changed and home telephones were still only available to high-ranking officials.

But fortunately, due to her relationship with Lin Shihao, he just responded to her request to install a telephone and will come to install it next month.

When Lin Ximan returned home, the father and son had already returned. After dinner, the three of them sat in the patio and chatted.

"Manman, how do you plan to arrange the land in Pengcheng? What kind of factory do you want to build? If you have any difficulties, please tell your uncle."

"Thank you, uncle. I plan to build a high-tech science and technology park on that piece of land. Now the precision equipment factory has been completed and put into use. In a few months, several other factories will be completed one after another. After the products are released, I will hold a new product launch conference in Gangcheng."

"A new product launch? And it's going to be held in Hong Kong?" Uncle Lin thought of the home appliances at home and couldn't help asking, "Are your products the home appliances at home?"

Hearing about home appliances, Lin Ximan was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "No, I don't have time to work on home appliances now. My products this time are all world firsts, and some of them can even be said to have opened up a new era."

When the father and son of the Lin family heard this, they looked at each other, their eyes revealing disbelief. Of course, Lin Ximan also saw it, and even if she didn't see it, she would have thought about it. How could the idea of opening up a new era convince others?

"In my science park, there are factories producing printers, fax machines, computers, mobile phones, and pagers. You know what a computer is, right? But the computers produced in our factory can be used in companies, homes, and other places. They can appear in various fields.

You don’t know what a mobile phone is. This is what I call it. You can think of it as a wireless phone. The current technology can only be used in the city, but I think it won’t be long before I can make it available throughout the country and even the world.”

Wireless phone? As the name implies, a phone without a wire can be carried around, which makes it so convenient to answer and make calls! How is this possible? They have never heard of this technology!

A world first? They had heard of computers, but they were too big to be used in companies or homes.

Pager? That's something for wireless enthusiasts, and its audience is too small!

Fax machines? Printers? These are available in the US, not uncommon, but I wonder how the machines produced by Manman compare to those in the US?

They knew about the technological blockade of China by developed countries, so they asked some technical questions. Uncle Lin was wondering if he could help her find a good technician in the United States.

Unexpectedly, his eldest niece said that her technology was the best in the world and it was she who blocked the technology of foreign factories.

"Uncle, Third Brother, when the product comes out, you are welcome to visit the Science Park. When you see the finished product, you will understand what I said. You will not believe me now even if I say so much."

The three of them talked for a while, and Uncle Lin finally directed Fang to the home appliance and asked her:

"Manman, the appliances in your house should be special, right? You didn't buy them outside, did you?"

Lin Ximan had heard them talking about home appliances during their previous chat, and she guessed at that time that they would ask about it. These home appliances were collected during the end of the world, so of course they were advanced.

"These home appliances are the products of my research institute, but my focus is now on the science and technology park, and the country has just entered the market economy, so there are only a few plots of land open to the public, so I want to wait a little longer."

"There are ways to resolve the restrictions you mentioned. I think you should have thought of that, right?" Uncle Lin asked. He couldn't believe that she didn't understand such a simple truth. How could someone who could build a science and technology park of this scale have no one around him who raised this issue?

“I know, it’s nothing more than those few things, either to cooperate with foreign companies, to build factories abroad, or to cooperate with the country, but I didn’t think of these things before.

My technologies are top-notch in the world, and I want to keep these technologies in China. Even though they cannot increase my country's international reputation much, they can add up to a lot.

As we have more high-end technologies, our country will be better. Building factories in China can also solve the domestic employment problem and increase the income of some citizens. Although the number of people is small, it is also a contribution to the country.

This is also the reason why I did not seek foreign investment or build factories abroad. As for not cooperating with the country, sometimes a good leader is not necessarily a good businessman. Different ideas will lead to disagreements, and they will happen frequently. It is better to have less trouble than more. Either I will hand over the technology directly to the country for free, or I will make the final decision myself. "

When the Lin family father and son heard Lin Ximan's words, they looked at each other, and Uncle Lin suddenly changed the topic.

"Manman, I haven't told you about our Lin family yet! Since your father disappeared, our whole family has been looking for him. Every time we tried to lock the wire, it would be cut off. We had many enemies at that time, and we didn't know who was involved. Now it seems that it was the Nakamura family.

In 1938, the domestic situation became increasingly chaotic, so your great-grandfather had no choice but to immigrate to the United States with his family. However, there have been people in China looking for your father until today, and we have never stopped looking for your father. "

An hour later, Uncle Lin finally explained the situation of his family, including the reason why Lin Jiadong appeared in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs last time.
