Chapter 3333

"Mr. Lin, what can you do? If so, our government will fully cooperate! " President Mbeki looked at Lin Feng and expected to say.

Mandela is also full of expectation and tension. Although South Africa's economy is booming, it also has the most common and biggest shortcoming of developing countries - the huge gap between the rich and the poor.

In western developed countries, the normal social system should be like a football. Small on both sides, big in the middle. That is to say, there is a huge middle class that supports the whole country. This can put the whole country in a very healthy and upward position.

However, in South Africa, in most developing countries, there is an hourglass social state. Big on both sides, small in the middle. The middle class supporting the whole country is extremely rare, while the number of poor people is huge, and the number of high-income rich people is also huge, which leads to the extremely unfair society. It also leads to the society that the poorer the poor, the richer the rich. The society has gone to deformity.

Lin Feng pondered for a long time.

"I think the only way to change this situation is to increase the income of South Africans and give more South Africans a share of their income." Lin Feng said.

MBE nodded. However, at present, South Africa's unemployment rate is extremely high, which is the highest in the world. The unemployment rate is as high as 24.7%, which is still the government statistics. In fact, the number of social unemployment will only be higher. In particular, South Africa's census system is not as accurate as China and western developed countries. Its 48 million population statistics is a relatively conservative figure. The real number, it's going to be more than that.

With such a high unemployment rate, Mbeki thought of many ways, but did not know how to improve the employment rate of South Africans. After all, the whole economy of South Africa is just like this. The economy is weak and there is a lack of industry. It is not easy for such a country to increase the employment rate.

"I have a way. Now Libya is building a lot of infrastructure. In the last three to five years, Libya will invest in many projects. I think I can help build a bridge, contact with President Gaddafi, let South Africa export labor, so that Libya can get a lot of labor, and South Africa can solve the employment problem of some people. " Lin Feng suggested.

Get a job in Libya! Mbeki frowned. He has mixed feelings about Libya. On the one hand, although the gross national product of Libya is not as good as that of South Africa, its per capita income is far higher than that of South Africa, which is the highest in Africa. Of course, this is mainly because of Libya's oil and gas exports. In this respect, South Africa lacks a lot. Going to work in Libya can indeed provide some South Africans with a job that can satisfy the South African people.

But Mbeki is worried about Libya's security. This country has just been lifted, but its relationship with the United States has always been a thorn in the heart of African countries. I don't know when this country will become the next Iraq. Mbeki worried that the South Africans had passed. What if three or five years later, the United States announced a crackdown on Libya, what would South Africans working in Libya do? South Africa doesn't have the money to get off the plane and send these South Africans home.

At that time, when our compatriots may be in danger of war, we and others will be helpless. What should we do? As the president of a country, there are many things to consider.

"Mr. Lin, we have heard about the massive construction of infrastructure projects in Libya, and it is said that they are all construction companies from China. If our citizens can go to Libya to work, I think it is an opportunity to change their own destiny. But I'm worried about the safety of these people in the event of unrest in Libya. " Mbeki worried.

"Well, President Mbeki, it's really important that you think about this. It's safe to go home. Otherwise, people will be in heaven and money will be in the bank. However, instead of facing the present precarious predicament and the hopelessness of the future, I think it's better to let go. With all due respect, the security problem in South Africa is also extremely worrying, and South Africa is a country that allows guns. You may not be safe at home. " Lin Feng said frankly.

Both Mbeki and Mandela turned black. Although South Africa's economy is booming, ranking first in Africa and known as the fifth BRICs country, South Africa's unemployment rate and public security are extremely embarrassing weaknesses.

"Of course, I can guarantee one thing, that is, if there is a real war in Libya, I will try my best to help those South African citizens who work in South Africa return home and avoid the danger of war. Of course, if I can, I also hope that war will not happen as far as possible. " Lin Feng said.

No war! Mbeki and Mandela look at each other. They have been in politics for so long. They are so smart that they can't hear the potential meaning of Lin Feng's words. This means that if the United States really wants to fight Libya, it is hoped that South Africa can mediate in the middle. However, they can not prevent the United States from attacking any country.

"Mr. Lin, South Africa is just a small African country. Even a developed country like the United Kingdom may not be able to stop the decision of the United States." Mbeki said in a deep voice.

"Ha ha, just try your best. After all, Libya is rich in oil and natural gas resources. If they carry out large-scale infrastructure construction, they will provide a lot of employment opportunities. President Mbeki, I believe the stability of Libya is good for Africa. " Lin Feng said in a long voice.

Mbeki and Mandela nodded. If they were only allowed to say something for Libya, they would be willing to make such a deal. After all, compared with the future of the South African people, it is not so difficult for them to make such remarks to touch the mold of the United States.

"Since we have reached a consensus on this point, I will tell president Gaddafi to come and have a detailed talk with you. In addition to the export of labor services, South Africa itself is also a big country in resources and one of the five major mining countries. " Lin Feng said with a smile.

South Africa has a large number of mineral resources, among which the reserves of gold, platinum group metals, manganese, vanadium, chromium and aluminosilicate rank the first in the world, among which the gold reserves account for 60% of the world, vermiculite, zirconium, titanium and fluorite rank the second, phosphate and antimony rank the fourth, uranium and lead rank the fifth, coal and zinc rank the eighth, iron ore rank the ninth and copper rank the fourteenth. If all this is mined out, it will be enough to make South Africa one of the developed countries.

Of course, it also involves a mining problem and a technical problem. At present, there is a trade theory called "scissors gap" in the world.

The term "scissors gap" originally originated from Soviet Russia in the 1920s. This word first appeared in Trotsky's speech at the 8th National Congress of the Russian Communist Party (1919). Then Lenin mentioned this issue in the debate about trade union and Trotsky mentioned it in his new direction. During 1927-1929, Stalin made many theoretical discussions on the situation at that time. However, Stalin came to the conclusion that "agricultural collectivization is necessary". From the perspective of historical development, it is the product of capitalist system. When the industrial capitalists with advanced production technology exchange industrial and agricultural products with the farmers with backward production technology, they raise the price of industrial products, lower the price of agricultural products and exploit the farmers by using the scissors difference. In colonial and semi colonial countries, the scissors gap also reflects the economic plunder of imperialism.

At the same time, the scissors gap is also one of the important means of exchange for developed countries in international trade. It means that developed countries use monopoly to control the foreign trade of developing countries. On the one hand, it depresses the world market price of primary products produced by developing countries; on the other hand, it increases the world market price of industrial products produced by developed countries. If this phenomenon is illustrated, it is like an open pair of scissors. Developed countries can earn high profits through this means of exchange.

So why do western countries have to push for family economic integration? That's why. Because through global economic integration, they can control these non developed countries. Keep their economy in their hands.

"I will try my best to provide some technologies to reduce the trade deficit caused by the" scissors gap ". At the same time, I will invest in the construction of some high-tech labor-intensive enterprises in South Africa to help South Africa solve the problem of population employment as much as possible." Lin Feng said with a smile.

Mbeki and Mandela have bright eyes. If Lin Feng is willing to provide advanced technology and build high-tech labor-intensive enterprises in South Africa, this is the real good move. It seems that Lin Feng really wants to help Gaddafi in Africa. In this way, after that, there will be some changes in the attitude towards Libya.

"Thank you, Mr. Lin, for all you have done for the people of South Africa. Thank you Mbeki got up and said passionately.

"Ha ha, I'm sincere. I still say that there is no unexplained love or hatred in this world. Therefore, I do it for the sake of profit. However, I'm not greedy. I'm not greedy like those western jackals. What I pursue is mutual benefit. " Lin fengxiao said.

"Ha ha, what a mutual benefit! good point! This is far more than what Westerners say on the surface, for the sake of the African people and our future. Ha ha, what those guys say is just to enslave us. Mr. Lin, you are a real person and will always be our friend! " Mbeki held Lin Feng's hand tightly.

The next day, Gaddafi flew from Libya to South Africa for a meeting with President Mbeki. The two sides have reached an agreement on the export of 100000 South African labor services, and will formally establish diplomatic relations and become trading partners. And the witness of all this is naturally Lin Feng.

Lin Feng! Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice frowned.
