Chapter 457 The problem that can't be avoided!

"Then why do the British agree to the local autonomy of Kuching?"

"That's because we cheated!"

Chen Jiaju said lightly, "Everything in Borneo is under the jurisdiction of the British Northern Borneo Company. Jason, the general manager of the company in charge of Kuching, is Angel's brother-in-law!"

Kong Zhengyi suddenly realized that all the legendary things were true!

"Jason has just come to Kuching a few years ago and has two hearts for the North Borneo Company. What's more, in the past few years, he has had in-depth economic interests with our Chen Group. It can be said that Jason has become one of us!" Chen Jiaju said with a faint smile.

Kong Zhengyi originally wanted to make fun of him, but when he thought that he was discussing a serious topic, he resisted and didn't say anything.

"So although we seem to have taken a great step on this issue, the hidden dangers behind this are also obvious!" Chen Jiaju extinguished the cigarette butt in the ashtray and said sharply, "Jason can naturally cover these problems for us in a short period of time, but once the news leaks, or Jason is transferred, the subsequent derivative problems are really hard to say!"

"Now our strength is far from being compared with these powerful veteran colonists! Therefore, I think it's better for us to keep a low profile now!"

"So that's it!" Kong Zhengyi muttered, "Then my ideas seem a little out of place. Director, why don't you give me back my manuscripts?"

Chen Jiaju shook his head gently and said, "What I just said is just a kind of worry, but our organizational work can't stand still. Well, these things are also your painstaking efforts. Let me study them and talk about it later. Maybe I can really find the problems in my current work!"

Kong Zhengyi thought for a moment and nodded, "Well, it's right to prepare for relevant things early, that's it."

"Lao Kong, the matter of Zhongyitang can be slowed down for the time being, but the work burden of Kuching City Hall is not light. I'm afraid you will be busy for a while." Chen Jiaju got up and brewed a cup of fragrant tea for Kong Zhengyi.

Kong Zhengyi's expression was much more solemn, and he nodded and sighed: "Yes, although the small city of Kujin is not very large now, a series of administrative frameworks related to this are indispensable. And it is precisely because everything starts from scratch that we should focus more on the future and lay a good foundation for a larger central city in the future.

"Not bad! Lao Kong, what you are talking about is exactly what I'm thinking about these days!" Chen Jiaju shouted well.

Chen Jiaju stood at the window, looked at the green mountains and white clouds in the distance, and said obsessedly, "Through long-term education, at least there should be a consensus at the senior level of Zhongyitang, that is, if we Chinese want to gain a foothold in this era, we must vigorously develop the economy. One of the most important and indispensable ways to vigorously develop the economy is to vigorously carry out industrialization!"

"The top priority of this industrialization is the development of heavy industry. Otherwise, it is just a light industry that develops some simple technologies. At most, it can only be regarded as a good-looking sales data for a while. Without the basic production raw materials provided by heavy industry, once there is a wind in the outside world, your light industry will be greatly affected and will not be able to develop.

"But the development of this heavy industry has another dead knot that can't be avoided! Lao Kong, do you know what it is?" Chen Jiaju looked back at Kong Zhengyi, who bowed his head and meditated, and asked.

Kong Zhengyi was in the process of thinking. He really didn't think about this problem carefully. Of course, this was also related to his previous career.

Kong Zhengyi thought for a long time and shook his head. This is indeed a little embarrassing for a person who has never been engaged in economics to release his opinions in this regard.

"That is, in order to develop heavy industry, the destructive plundering of resources, especially the large amount of pollution caused in the production process, is a very headache and criticized sequelae!" Chen Jiaju sighed with ups and downs.

Is it to develop first and then govern, or to develop and govern at the same time? Behind such a seemingly simple proposition, it actually hides the significant influence of human beings on the earth's environment on which they live for their own development.

Chen Jiaju actually has an answer in his heart for a long time, because from the information he knows, almost no country or nation spends great efforts to control pollution when there is an urgent need to develop its own economic strength. This seems to have become an unspoken rule tacit by human beings, because the financial and material resources required to control the huge pollution caused by the development of heavy industry are quite amazing!

Kong Zhengyi frowned and said, "Isn't this problem a little early to think... In fact, I think this problem is also easy to solve. At worst, when these heavy industry factories are built, they will be specially gathered together and try to stay away from the living area, isn't that right?"

"This is a good idea, but it involves another crucial issue!" Chen Jiaju picked up the teacup, sipped it, and said quietly, "That's if the war comes, how can we ensure the safety of these centrally built factories?"

Kong Zhengyi, who was slightly closing his eyes and tasting tea, was choked by Chen Jiaju's careless sentence, and the ground was splashed by his tea.

War? Kong Zhengyi groaned in his heart. How did this young leader say something surprised? You should know that the end of the European war has only a few years, and all countries in the world are basically in a moment of recuperation, especially in the remote areas far away from the center of the world. Isn't the word war a little too far away?

Well, even if we Chinese become strong and want to drive those colonialists out of the national liberation struggle, it will take at least decades to achieve it! War? Is it really not far from us?

"As I just said, everything we have now is laying the foundation. Since we are laying the foundation, we must take into account everything that may happen and encounter in the future. This environmental pollution is on the one hand, and the same is true of the danger, including war. In fact, there is also a place that we may not know much about!" Chen Jiaju said solemnly.

"That's the geographical structure of Borneo and the whole South Ocean where we are located. Is the current location an earthquake multiple belt? If so, what should we do? If not, what should we do?"
