Chapter 531 Reform and Opening Up
Wang Zhao was a little girl who loved beauty. The clothes her aunt brought back were so beautiful that she liked them very much. She couldn't bear to listen to anything her own mother said.
The little brat retorted.
"Mom, I don't grow fast. Besides, I can still wear skirts and sweaters even if I grow taller. If the pants are too short, I can just lower the hem a little bit so that I can wear them for another year."
"You're the only one who would say that!" Xia Qingqing tapped her head.
Now that the clothes have been brought back, can Xia Qingqing return them? She just thinks that the child has too many clothes and it is a bit unnecessary.
Every time Xia Zhizhi brought back a big bag, Xia Qingqing would give her money, but she would not take it. She just felt sorry for her sister because of the money.
Xia Zhizhi's elder brother has been married to his elder sister-in-law for several years. They have been living in Hainan for the past few years. His elder sister-in-law's family has the twin gene, and they gave birth to a pair of twin sons.
My third brother and his wife gave birth to a girl. They had originally planned to have a second child, but his wife got into college, so the plan would have to be postponed.
Since they are all children of her siblings, Xia Zhizhi treats them equally and will definitely buy clothes for all of them.
If someone is here, let them take it back on the way. If someone is not here, ask Pan Wenjun to send it over when the time comes.
After the Chinese New Year this year, Xia Zhizhi did not act like she did in previous years. As soon as the first month of the year was over, she would rush out in a hurry.
Ah Ju, however, went out early, just like in previous years.
Xia Zhizhi stayed behind, running out every day, and no one knew what she was busy with.
Just when the elders of the Xia family thought that she had turned over a new leaf and would not disappear like she did in previous years, she ran away again.
But this year was much better than previous years, because she came back twice in the middle of the year, and she and Aju took Zeng Zelan and Xia Bangguo out for some fun.
The old men and women are all retired, so it’s nice to go out and travel while they can still walk.
Anyway, Aju arranged all the itinerary, so she thought it was fine as long as Xia Zhizhi provided some personal support.
There was a reason why Xia Zhizhi went back home. In a year or two, the authorities would allow private enterprises to open factories.
She planned the trip in advance, which saved her a lot of time.
In addition, Zeng Zelan and Xia Bangguo were both old, and more than half of their batch of old revolutionaries had left, with only a few left.
Birth, aging, sickness and death are the laws of nature. Xia Zhizhi has no intention of changing anything and can accept this calmly.
Not only could she accept the death of her loved ones, she could even accept that one day she would die too.
Of course, even though she accepted it, she still had some feelings for her grandparents, and naturally thought that she should spend more time with them while they were still alive.
In the 1980s, the country began to allow private enterprises to open factories and set up businesses. During this period, many foreign-funded enterprises also began to enter the domestic market.
Xia Group entered the market as a foreign-funded enterprise.
Of course, the majority of the company is still Hongxia Electronics.
Xia Zhizhi had money in her hands, so she didn't have to worry about sales or production technology. In addition, the policy towards foreign-funded enterprises was relaxed at the time, so she opened large factories in several regions in one go.
She made money by opening a factory, and she continued to invest the money in opening another factory.
If a company is too big, it is not a good thing for any country, so Xia Zhizhi asked Ah Ju to change several skins and register many companies.
She is involved in electronics, high-tech, daily chemicals, textiles, and medical devices.
Rather than saying that she is an entrepreneur who runs a factory, it would be more accurate to say that she is an entrepreneur who runs an industrial park.
After all, she only had to open her mouth and express her ideas, and Ah Ju would naturally take care of the subsequent trivial matters.
It's really easy to get things done if you have money.
The amount of taxes she paid was sufficient to solve a large number of local employment problems. A large enterprise can really revitalize a city.
She doesn't even need to rely on the power of the Xia family. Relying solely on the influence of her company, she can communicate with the local government on the direction of the city's construction.
This may sound impressive, but it is actually very simple.
When a company goes to a certain place to invest and build a factory, it can negotiate with the government to allow only a certain type of factory to exist.
Among her demands was to refuse to allow factories and enterprises with particularly severe pollution to be established in the area.
As long as she invests enough money, she can even propose to prohibit the mining of local resources.
This saves us from opening these small factories now and making a little money, and then having to spend several times more money to control pollution in the future.
The Xia family knew about it when Xia Zhizhi first opened the factory.
Of course, they only knew what Xia Zhizhi wanted them to know. After all, she was already in her 30s, and she had to let her family know that she was doing something serious.
Of course, they definitely didn't know that Ah Ju was investing in a company under the guise of a foreigner.
As for the factory, Xia Zhizhi only needed to give a general idea and Ah Ju would take over the rest.
Xia Zhizhi mainly focuses on the research institute.
She hired a lot of people with high salaries and provided sufficient research materials and funds. I will sow the seeds and reap the fruits when the time is right.
When Xia Zhizhi first returned to China to set up the factory, she was very busy. She was really busy. Even if the Xia family wanted to find her, they could hardly see her once.
Xia Zhizhi also comforted them: "It's like this in the early stages. Once the business is on the right track, it won't be so busy anymore."
Once we were on the right track, we were so busy that we had no time to rest.
Because they not only have factories in China, but also businesses everywhere overseas.
The factories opened by Xia Zhizhi in China are all low-pollution and environmentally friendly.
However, both in production and in life, we need to use some products that will cause serious pollution during production.
To give the simplest example, a paper mill consumes a large amount of logs during production, and the amount of wastewater discharged is also quite large.
You can't just stop using it because of this, right?
What should I do then?
Xia Zhizhi is a bit unethical. She opened these factories in small countries nearby. As long as you invest a little money to set up a factory, you only need to spend some insignificant raw material procurement costs and labor costs.
Then you can use their workers and their raw materials to produce, and then throw the garbage there.
Produce good finished products and just pay a little more for the transportation costs.
For some relatively backward countries, they are willing to pay the cost of environmental pollution in exchange for immediate benefits.
In fact, China has been doing this for a long time, but it was also forced to do so in order to develop the economy.
No one is a fool. Given a choice, who would want to eat rotten rice?
Xia Zhizhi provided better options to the domestic government, and they naturally knew which one was more suitable.
Some companies opened in foreign countries all hired management personnel, but it was impossible for Xia Zhizhi to completely leave them alone, and Xia Zhizhi also developed new projects from time to time.
That evil cult has existed for so many years and has not been disbanded. It is still operating in an orderly manner.
These were all produced without any investment, so Xia Zhizhi naturally couldn't bear to give them up.
With so many things to do at the same time, it's natural to be very busy.
