Chapter 1779 (2/2)
As soon as this question comes out, many people are slightly pondering, but Andy naturally won't let people get up to answer this question, but he said to himself with a smile: ”some people will say that it's a country with a long history... China is very poor, but it seems to be developing very fast recently. Some people may say that Chinese food is unique. Others will say that China is a rising power. ”
As he said, Andy pushed the remote control in his hand, and several charts appeared on the big screen behind him. Andy reached out to the big screen and indicated, ”if you look at the above chart carefully, you will find that in 2025, these Goldman Sachs forecast reports will catch up with the U.S. economy tomorrow. If you look at the following chart in 2050, it predicts the sky North Korea's economy will be twice that of the United States, while India's economy will keep pace with that of the United States.
At this point, we should be clear that these charts were drawn before the financial crisis, but in the research report sent to me by my think tank, when can China become a larger economy than the United States? Goldman Sachs gave 2027, but the report of the think tank showed that the time is... 2020! ”
as he said, Andy reached out to the 2020 number on the big screen. At this time, the conference hall had become silent. Everyone looked at Andy on the stage with burning eyes and listened to his every words carefully. Those Chinese and foreign politicians were even more solemn.”In 2020, there are only 11 years to go. China will change the world in two ways.
On the one hand, China is a vast developing country with a population of 1.3 billion. It has been growing at a rate of about 10% every year for three decades and will become the largest economy in 11 years. This has never happened in modern times that developing countries have a larger economic scale than developing countries.
On the other hand, in modern times, the dominant country in the world, in my opinion, will be China, will not be a certain western country... ”
Speaking of this, there was a slight commotion at the scene. Andy opened his arms and motioned slightly. He continued: ”I know that there is a general view in the West that countries are constantly modernizing and Westernizing, but it is not the case.
There is a view that modernization is the general product of market, competition and technology. However, it is not only that, but also shaped by history and culture.
Unlike western countries, China will not develop like western countries. It will maintain differences in the most basic aspects. Obviously, the key issue now is how to understand the essence of China if we understand China. Generally speaking, the western countries are still understanding China in the traditional way, using our western thinking and Western concepts It doesn't work to look at China. It's different! ”
”Buzzing -”
there was a low buzzing in the conference hall, and people began to talk to each other. The audience was no doubt not the elites from all walks of life. No matter the dignified faces of the Chinese people or the serious faces of foreign countries, Andy's series of words made it hard for the town to calm down, while the reporters on the scene were all red and crazy to take photos, Record this speech that will set off a storm all over the world.
“。。。 People who have a little knowledge of the dynasty know that it has a long history. From 221 B.C., the end of the Warring States period to the unification of the six kingdoms in the Qin Dynasty, it has always been a country with uninterrupted civilization. Maybe it is the decline of the dynasty in the past hundred years that makes Westerners deliberately ignore the glory of the history of the dynasty. This is a kind of wrong thinking. It's impossible to understand China with this kind of thinking
Then in the silent and attentive listening, Andy calmly began to analyze and explain from all aspects, and carried out the popularization of Chinese history and civilization in the most common language of Westerners.
“。。。 In general, the western world can insist on its own view that only by applying the experience of the western world and using the western view, the western thinking can understand China. If you want to know, why our view on China is so wrong and why we mispredict the future of China, the above is the answer! ”
Wow -
there was a sudden uproar in the whole conference hall. The big guys in the front row looked at Andy Smith, who was talking. Their eyes became very bright, and their faces were as heavy as water, so that people could not see their mood at this moment.
”Unfortunately, I have to say that there is a little western ideology in the view of China, that is, some arrogant and conceited people think that we are the best, so they think that western ideological policies are universal in the world?
Secondly, ignorance. We don't want to face the problem of difference...... “
