At present, the entry and exit of foreign exchange in China are subject to strict review and regulations.All foreign exchange investment needs to be converted into Chinese legal currency before entering China, and then invested in legal currency.

Once more foreign investment can be attracted, it will be able to make up for China's current serious shortage of foreign exchange.It can be described as a good thing that kills two birds with one stone.

"This is one aspect. Another aspect is that our businessmen can directly participate in foreign financing, and can directly contact foreign financial institutions. The current banks in our country have limited support for private businessmen, and their financing channels are also limited. If They can directly obtain loans from European and American banks, which can solve their lack of funds.”

"kindness."

Duan Xun nodded slightly.

Facing the Great Depression in Europe and America, both China and the Soviet Union knew that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.But to be honest, both countries lack sufficient funds.

Currently importing European and American machinery and equipment, both countries are in tight hands.

The start of China's second five-year plan requires too much money.Therefore, almost all foreign exchange is used to purchase machinery and equipment, all of which are planned by the government.As for those private businessmen, the government doesn't care, and it is impossible to dispatch foreign exchange to them.Therefore, if Chinese private businessmen want to buy machinery and equipment from abroad, they can't spend much foreign exchange at all.

However, the government has also considered this point, so it has given them enough freedom.Originally, the exchange of gold was controlled by the government, and private exchanges were not allowed.

But this time the government gave these businessmen a chance.Let them also participate in the exchange of gold, and then use the gold to scan goods in Europe and the United States.As long as they have the ability to exchange enough gold from the country, as long as they report to the government agency, the government allows them to use the exchanged gold.

In this regard, private businessmen are far better than the government.

Since the promulgation of the more stringent "gold law", China has once again exchanged more than 240 million tons of gold from the private sector.However, the gold exchanged by the government was only about 70 tons, and the rest were exchanged by private merchants.What do those people exchange so much gold for? It is to go to Europe and the United States to buy more machinery and equipment and develop their strength.

Duan Xun admired those businessmen in China.

Because they are better than monkeys, and each of them is very capable.Therefore, except for national key projects, the government will not interfere with how Chinese private businessmen take advantage of the Great Depression this time.If they have the ability to take advantage of this opportunity to improve their technical strength and increase their production, that is their business.

Judging from the current situation, private businessmen are very active and performing very well.There is a better way than the government to search for private gold.If you create opportunities for them, contact European and American financial institutions.They will also have a way to get loans from them.

"Then what does the Economic and Development Committee mean?"

"Prime Minister, after discussion, the Economic and Development Commission believes that the proposal from the Ministry of Commerce is very suitable. Our country is still in the stage of accumulating wealth, so we need more funds. If we can attract more foreign capital to flow into our country, the advantages will outweigh the disadvantages."

False prosperity, stimulated prosperity.

The final result of the influx of funds is the emergence of bubbles.The government has released a lot of water, which is not enough to use the gold reserves, and it also needs to borrow a lot from European and American countries.If more foreign investment is allowed to flow in, China will bring a great construction climax and a huge "prosperity" in a short period of time.

Such capital investment will double China's industrial output several times in a short period of time.Even in some aspects, the output will be increased by ten times or dozens of times.

But there will be many side effects.

Especially after the completion of the second five-year plan, all aspects of China's industrial data will explode.When the time comes to make those industrial output public, it will shock the world.Duan Xun is very sure of this.

Just like in history, after the first five-year plan of the Soviet Union, European and American countries did not believe some data released by the Soviet Union.Many European and American newspapers even think that the Soviet Union is bragging.Because such data is simply beyond people's imagination.

So will China.

Once China completes the second five-year plan, the data will far exceed the historical data of the Soviet Union.But how does China digest such a large industrial output.

Although Duan Xun thought about taking advantage of the Great Depression, he didn't expect to get to where he is now.Step by step, the second five-year plan is also revised and revised.The number of key projects originally planned has also been increasing, which is nearly three times the number of key projects to be completed.

Therefore, Duan Xun has already begun to think about how to digest the output after a few years.Especially at the end of the Second Five-Year Plan, it is the time when the factories under construction now start to release their output.

There will be an astonishing development in industrial output.

At this time, Duan Xun somewhat understood the choice of Germany and Japan.In order to save the economy, in order to save the industry, they also moved towards stimulating the industry.

It's just that their population is much smaller than China's, and their domestic market is smaller than China's.In order to digest the stimulated industrial output, they went to militarism.Use the model of arms expansion and war preparation to digest those industrial outputs.If they don't take this path, they will immediately fall into the Great Depression mode in the United States.

Duan Xun smiled bitterly in his heart.

It seems that when the second five-year plan is completed and the excess industrial output cannot be digested, China may also follow this path.Use the model of military expansion and war preparation to digest those excess production.

Anyway, the end of the Second Five-Year Plan was in 1934, not many years before World War II.In a few years, the army will expand to 400 million, with thousands of aircraft, even tens of thousands of aircraft, plus tens of thousands of tanks, and then develop warships to face World War II.There should be no problem digesting those industrial output in this way.

It seemed that World War II was really inevitable.

Regardless of whether it is China, the Soviet Union, Germany, or Japan, there are not enough colonies to digest their own production.Then the best way is to fight.

Thinking of this, Duan Xun nodded and said, "After the age of great voyages, global relations are getting closer and closer. Any country isolated from the world will be abandoned by the world. We should boldly embrace the world and open up More cities should be. The Economic and Development Commission will make a plan to see which cities will be added as trading cities. And since it is going to be liberalized, then boldly increase the list of trading cities. And don’t focus on some big cities. If some provinces can be directly defined as commercial provinces. At that time, as long as they are defined as commercial cities or commercial provinces, foreign direct investment can be directly liberalized. As long as they are not industries restricted by the government, they can invest in other industries construction."

Since we want to open up, we can take a bigger step forward.

At present, China still has many restrictions on foreign investment, and foreign investment is not allowed in many fields.But it is also bold in many areas.

Just like the U.S. Steel Company directly established a steel plant in China, Standard Oil of New Jersey established a company in Sichuan, and currently exploits natural gas.In the meeting just now, it was even agreed that foreign companies would set up aircraft manufacturing plants in China.

There is no need to twist and pinch.

As long as it is not a sensitive field, it is a good thing for foreign businessmen to invest boldly and compete with domestic businessmen or even government-controlled enterprises.The government can own the foreign exchange they bring in and can collect taxes from their factories.As long as those factories are in China, they are Chinese factories.

"Yes."

Liang Huankui nodded.

"For the introduction of foreign capital, there is no need to bow down to them, nor to reject them. It is the same as our own enterprises, and we treat them normally."

wide open.

After the economic crisis, countries have actually strengthened trade protection.The tariffs of various countries are not low. After the economic crisis, several countries have adopted the practice of raising tariffs to resist foreign goods.

And began to withdraw funds.

The United States withdraws a large amount of funds in Europe to the country, and the same is true of world hegemony countries such as the United Kingdom, and a large amount of funds in the colonies are withdrawn to the country.They originally hoped to activate domestic investment after returning the funds.However, after these funds were returned to the country, they were tightly held by financial institutions, which did not improve domestic investment at all.As a result, the current international trade has been greatly impacted.

Everyone chooses to close the door.

Of course, after the Age of Discovery, the relationship between countries in the world has become closer and closer.It is no longer the door you want to close, and it is impossible to close the door completely.But this time the economic crisis has caused countries to close half of their windows, and the volume of international trade has plummeted.

At this time, China is doing the opposite.

On July 1930, 7, the Chinese Premier's office meeting decided to increase the degree of openness.Not only the major cities along the eastern coast, but also the newly developed cities in the Yangtze River area, as well as some key regional cities, and many border cities have entered the list of this opening.

On August 1930, 8, the Ministry of Commerce announced the list of new trading cities.This time it was really a big opening, and 13 new cities were added at once. So far, the list of commercial cities in China has increased to 31.

Contains almost all large and medium-sized cities.

In other words, China has opened up those cities generously.

After that, the Ministry of Commerce announced the list of trading provinces again.The four provinces of Guangdong, Fujian, Yunnan and Fengtian became the first batch of trading provinces.The policies of these trade provinces are basically the same as those of trade cities.The policies of the entire province allow foreign businessmen to directly invest and build factories in these provinces.

Attract funds.

Among the financial capitalists in European and American countries, many top-notch ones hold large sums of money.But apart from them, there are also some merchants who have money in their hands.

Like the United States, many millionaires have become beggars. Apart from the bankruptcy of their own companies, most of them are due to the collapse of the US stock market.The asset allocation of many people in the United States is stocks, and most of their funds are in the stock market.As a result, many people's funds collapsed in the stock market, and the stocks in their hands became waste paper.
