Chapter 1992 The Country Does Not Do Foundries
This time, Obanniu negotiated a lot of conditions with Huaxia. For example, Huaxia agreed to buy US treasury bonds worth 50 billion U.S. dollars, but there was an additional clause, that is, after the maturity, the calculation should be based on the higher exchange rate of the US dollar or RMB. If the U.S. dollar depreciates, Huaxia can ask for the calculation to be in RMB, and if the U.S. dollar appreciates, it can be calculated in U.S. dollars.
This condition is relatively harsh, but Obama still agreed, because no country is willing to buy so many US national debt at this time.
Of course, the United States has also contributed some technology to lift some of the blockade against China. Speaking of this, I can see the shameless face of the United States.
These technologies are all from the United States to countries in Europe and Asia that have the technology and say that we will block China's technology together, and no one should open it up, lest China develop too fast and pose a threat to us.
And when the United States discovered that these technologies could not stop Huaxia for a few years, they immediately took them out and traded with Huaxia privately in exchange for some benefits.
I am afraid that other countries that have also imposed a technological blockade on China do not know yet. When Huaxia suddenly announced that it had mastered this technology one day, those countries were all stunned.
Of course, the United States did not provide many technologies proposed by China, because those who are ahead of China by more than three or five years are more valuable.
They have already paid some price and cannot pay too much.
In fact, many countries are now cooperating with Huaxia, and they all find that Huaxia is not as easy to fool as before, and now it is even smarter than them.
In the past, as long as some technologies were better than Huaxia, Huaxia would want to get them regardless of the cost, but they didn't know that they had already researched a better alternative technology. In other words, this technology was an obsolete product.
The obsolete technology can be exchanged for so many benefits, only because Huaxia did not understand enough information, and it was also related to Huaxia's poor technology at that time and its eagerness to develop.
But now Huaxia pays special attention to information collection, and then has a huge team to analyze, from any angle, analyze the negotiation problems that may be encountered, and then find a balance point.
Another thing is that China doesn't need much technology now, and most of them are high-tech technologies, and they haven't researched alternative technologies so quickly.
What's more, after cheating once or twice, there is no need to continue to cooperate in the future. Losing such a partner as Huaxia is very serious for many countries.
China also requires the United States to open some markets and reduce taxes in some industries to ensure that China's products can be competitive. Of course, China will also import some American products to promote bilateral trade.
For example, China wants to import machinery, food, automobiles, electronics, and chemical products from the United States, while the United States wants to import automobiles, textiles, food, electronics, chemicals, and steel from China.
Although the United States is powerful in technology, it is also a big exporter of agricultural products. In particular, they are good at growing genetically modified food crops, and then their own people don't eat them and sell them to foreign countries.
This time, Huaxia made it very clear that we will no longer import genetically modified crops, and related seeds, etc., will no longer be imported. Non-GMO production is low, we Huaxia don't care now, unless you promise to recycle our GMO food.
How can the United States do it? We have always imported low-value-added products and then exported high-value-added products. This time, you Huaxia wants to reverse the situation. We export food crops, and you process them into food and sell them back to our United States. This is absolutely not possible. .
Huaxia's idea is to use genetically modified corn to produce ethanol gasoline, and then the remaining dregs can be processed into feed and sold to the United States. This is definitely not for people to eat, but pigs fed with genetically modified corn dregs should be served on the table, right?
Anyway, Huaxia doesn't want any danger. As for genetically modified soybeans, genetically modified wheat, etc., don't even think about selling them to Huaxia.
Originally, the United States wanted to import raw materials, such as iron ore, and they made steel themselves. But China is no longer selling them.
We produce it ourselves, and selling steel is obviously more profitable than selling ore directly, not to mention that we also need to import a lot of ore.
The Polar Bear Mining Group is not a state-owned enterprise, and we have no right to decide.
You said those rare element minerals? Sorry, now we are not short of money, so we no longer sell this kind of minerals. What kind of special steel do you need, you can buy it from Huaxia, and the price can be discounted if you buy more.
Textiles, this is a very large gap in the United States. They hope to import some raw materials, and then they process them into finished products, and then earn high profits with brand advantages.
Huaxia said that we don't need to import textiles, and we have to export what our country produces. The export of raw materials is also very small now, because our finished products are not enough to sell.
In fact, if it wasn't for the EU's anti-monopoly investigation that affected the sales of Huaxia Textiles in Europe, then there is no need to discuss this with the United States, and the European market is enough to sell.
The current anti-monopoly does not mean that you cannot dump at a price lower than the cost, but that you cannot sell at a price lower than our country's cost, so as to prevent you from squeezing our market with low labor costs.
The United States also wants to turn Huaxia into an OEM factory as before, and use China's relatively low labor costs to let China OEM. The larger the quantity, the more they will earn, and they can even sell directly in China.
But this time Zhang Ruiqiang directly refused, and now Huaxia's companies are going to India and Brazil to build factories, because the labor costs there are lower, and Huaxia's labor costs have risen.
Huaxia does not intend to take the path of an international processing factory, but to be a design developer, not just a producer.
In fact, China's labor costs have not risen so fast. Internationally, especially compared to Europe and the United States, it still has a great advantage. But Brazil and India are cheaper. Why let the locals go on this difficult road? Woolen cloth?
This was what Feng Yu told Zhang Ruiqiang. He took his own company as an example and analyzed the disadvantage of taking labor cost as a competitive advantage. Once it becomes an international foundry, how does the technology progress? Think about Thailand back then. Once labor costs skyrocketed, the economy collapsed.
If you can't do business with low added value, then don't do it. At the same time, we must also see clearly that the United States needs money, and Obama just came to power, and he also needs political performance to ensure his approval rate, so some conditions can be stricter at this time.
You know, if our trade with the United States is interrupted now, we may lose a lot to each other, but we can bear it. The economic growth rate will be slower, but the economy of the United States will definitely go backwards and hurt each other. They can't afford it.
Finally, Zhang Ruiqiang mentioned an important issue in the trade between the two sides, that is, the United States does not have a large port and cannot stop large cargo ships, which seriously affects the efficiency and cost of bilateral trade. What does this mean is self-evident.
