Without the intervention of the two old gangsters Misu, the 200 X-ray machines piled up in Tanggu Port were successfully taken away by various countries in exchange for a total of 10 million US dollars in cash or food.
What is even more dramatic is that the lawless Lin Sanqi, together with the two courageous leaders Jing Qisheng and Cheng Suian, dared to set a trap for the tiger and extorted nearly 10 million US dollars from the two gangsters.
The key point is that this "extortion" has not caused any protests. Both countries acted as if nothing had happened and successfully handed the cash to China.
The $20 million in revenue, plus the diamonds donated by Lin Sanqi, helped to alleviate the domestic food supply problem.
After a lot of hard work, Lin finally started to make his contribution to the country as a time traveler. His thoughts were sublimated and he felt like something was about to sprout...
Lin Sanqi was immediately secretly taken to a place and given a calligraphy work.
It has the words "Serve the Country with a Loyal Heart" written on it, and a row of small words on the edge: "Presented to Comrade Lin Sanqi", but there is no signature.
It’s a pity that we couldn’t take a photo together, otherwise Lin Sanqi could have taken the photo back to the ancestral hall and let Grandpa open a page in the family tree alone.
When Lin Sanqi returned to the Chinese Medicine Hospital with the calligraphy, Dean Shen was already waiting for him.
Lin Sanqi spread out his calligraphy on the table. Dean Shen's eyes lit up and he kept praising it:
"The writing is vigorous and straight, the brushstrokes are unrestrained and free-flowing, and the brushstrokes are elegant. What beautiful calligraphy! What beautiful calligraphy! Xiaoqi, you have received this masterpiece. This is the leader's love for you. For a smuggler like you, it's like a golden ticket to immunity from death."
Lin Sanqi waved his hands repeatedly after hearing this:
"Uncle Shen, don't scare me. Historically, the Golden Medal of Immunity from Death didn't really save you from death; it was actually a death warrant. Not to mention recent examples, even during the Ming Dynasty, many founding heroes who had the Golden Medal of Immunity from Death were killed in the end. This thing is too hot to handle."
Dean Shen had originally looked happy, but after hearing this, his face quickly turned dark, and he slapped Lin Sanqi on the back of the head:
"What nonsense are you talking about, you bastard? How can the feudal dynasty be compared to the present? If someone with ulterior motives hears what you say, do you know how much trouble you will cause?"
Lin Sanqi quickly begged for mercy:
"I know, I know. I'm with you now. I won't say it anymore."
In fact, Lin Sanqi sighed in his heart. A smuggler like himself, who drove a car with his girlfriend to eat out all over the country and went to Hong Kong from time to time to have fun, would he really have a good ending in a few years?
So what if there is calligraphy?
Lin Sanqi wasn't the only one with calligraphy, and finally...
At this time, a staff member from the hospital office knocked on the door outside:
"Dean Shen, Leader Jing just called and asked Comrade Lin Sanqi to go to his place."
"knew!"
Dean Shen looked at Lin Sanqi fiercely:
"When you're at a higher level, keep your mouth shut. Know what you should and shouldn't say. Even if you don't like it, you have to keep it to yourself. Do you understand?"
Lin Sanqi nodded quickly and said, "I understand. I'll be leaving now."
Dean Shen thought for a moment, picked up his coat and stood up:
"Forget it, Leader Jing is my old leader. I'll go with you. I'm really scared of you. You're good in everything except your big mouth."
…
…
This was also Lin Sanqi's first time in the office of a senior leader.
It was different from what he had imagined a senior leader's office would look like.
Leader Jing's office is located in a large courtyard. Apart from a huge map that attracts attention, everything else in the office is very simple. There is a cloth sofa that looks like it has been used for many years, and the armrests are almost patinaed.
The secretary made some tea and then left. Leader Jing looked at Lin Sanqi with a smile and said,
"Comrade Sanqi, I called you here this time to formally express my gratitude to you on behalf of the organization. However, for some reasons, we cannot hold a commendation meeting for you. I hope you can forgive me."
Lin Sanqi quickly said modestly:
"It's not necessary for the commendation ceremony, but I suggest that the country should continue to collect precious medicinal herbs from all over the country, not just ginseng and musk, but other precious medicinal herbs are also acceptable, in case of future needs."
He said this out of selfish motives, which was to use the power of the state to plunder Chinese medicinal materials across the country, and eventually all of them would go into his pocket.
Leader Jing nodded:
"We have already discussed this in a meeting. We have also provided provinces and cities with a preferential policy whereby they can use the best precious medicinal materials and jade to offset their grain tax. Local officials are very happy and have expressed their willingness to cooperate. This has played a very important role in alleviating local food shortages."
The local government is of course happy about paying less grain tax, but we don’t know how many animals and plants will suffer.
Just as Lin Sanqi was daydreaming, Leader Jing said happily:
"Comrade Sanqi, because of you, the country has formulated a new national policy. We will vigorously develop high-tech industries in the future. We have even listed high-tech industries as the most important industry, ahead of industry."
"ah?"
Lin Sanqi was a little confused. What was national policy or not?
Leader Jing laughed:
"You young people don't understand, do you? The higher-ups are getting a taste of the sweetness. A small X-ray machine can actually be sold for $50,000. Do you know how much it cost us to export $50,000 worth of minerals or $50,000 worth of cloth in the past? How many lives were lost?
Thanks to you, we not only acquired the world's most advanced X-ray machine production line, but also gained global recognition. Countries around the world placed orders for an additional 300 units, in addition to the original 200.
This is just the beginning. Even the United States and the Soviet Union are now asking us to buy the 1250 mAh X-ray machine, and they want it very urgently.
If Western countries were to buy from us, the orders would likely be for thousands or tens of thousands of units. We could earn so much foreign exchange back then. We couldn't even imagine that before."
Lin Sanqi thought, in a few decades, the world's manufacturing factory will have been heard of. At that time, our country will be really awesome.
But he was afraid that his leader would get excited and give the machine or technology to his friend for free, so he reminded him:
"Leader, I suggest that you only export 750 mAh X-ray machines for now, and then hurry up to apply for a patent for the 1250 mAh X-ray machine. As I said last time, register a shell company abroad or in Hong Kong so that you can earn patent fees in the future.
If the domestic economy is really tight and foreign exchange is in short supply, and you have to sell 1250 mAh X-ray machines, my suggestion is to take advantage of your monopoly position and charge them $500,000 for each machine, with a minimum order of 200 units.
X-ray machine technology, when you look at it, is just that simple. With the technological prowess of developed countries, it's easy to crack and copy it. If you absolutely must keep it secret, then make it a one-time deal and make as much money as you can.
Of course, we are not afraid if foreign countries can produce it in the future. Our raw material costs and labor costs are lower, and our prices will be cheaper than theirs. We should be able to win back some orders in the future.
If our prices are half of theirs, if we dump them at low prices, or even sell them at cost price to secure foreign exchange, then developed countries won't want to produce their own products. They are all private enterprises and won't do anything that doesn't make money. They would rather come to China to purchase.
Leader Jing listened and took notes on paper from time to time, then said in surprise:
"My goodness, Comrade Sanqi, you're not only a medical talent, but surprisingly, you're also knowledgeable in economics. These strategies of yours are truly brilliant. Using low prices to dump products and impact the international medical market is a great idea."
Lin Sanqi thought, this is not my original idea at all, this is the usual trick used by those damn developed countries in Europe and America against our country.
When we are unable to produce, they use their monopoly to sell it to us at exorbitant prices.
When we were preparing to carry out independent research and development and finally achieved results, and were about to put the products on the market, European and American countries started dumping them at low prices, forcing domestic products to have no chance of survival.
After domestic products were forced to death, only Europe and the United States were left dominating the market, and they started raising prices again.
This trick is very despicable, but it has to be said that it is very effective. Many of our national industries have been destroyed in their hands, such as the chip industry.
"Okay, Comrade Sanqi, I will truthfully report your suggestions to the leaders. I believe they will carefully study your low-price dumping theory, haha. I've called you here this time to give you an extra reward."
Dean Shen was excited when he heard this. If it was just an ordinary commendation, at most the Health Bureau or the hospital would give it a commendation and that would be it. But if it could be commended by Leader Jing himself, it must be a big prize. (End of this chapter)
