Chapter 1371

Yang Xiaotian didn't know Julian Leiden before.

When Yang Xiaotian stood up for Wang Qinian and did not hesitate to fight against the whole MIT and JPMorgan Chase behind MIT, Yang Xiaotian wanted to use every card he could use.

In Yang Xiaotian's view, the United States is not monolithic. As long as it is divided and drawn up, the risk of this matter will be minimized.

It's clear that Julian Leiden is an attractive person. He is in a high position of power, but he is incompatible with the mainstream interest groups in the United States, and he is eager for political achievements and achievements. But because he was out of place with the mainstream interest groups, the mainstream interest groups would not cooperate with Julian Leiden at all. Julian Leiden has no power, but lacks strength, so it is difficult to make a difference in his term of office.

The United States is a country where capital is king. Without the cooperation of capital groups, no one can move a step. It's the same with Julian Leiden. All the major groups in the state have adopted the principle of Non Violence and non cooperation, ignoring Julian Leiden. So far, none of the promises of Julian Leiden's campaign has been fulfilled.

Voters don't care how hard Julian Leiden is. In the eyes of voters, Julian Leiden just said a lot of nonsense to cheat his vote, but after he came to power, he did nothing. This is ridiculous!

They think that Julian Leiden is a big liar!

As a result, Julian Leiden's approval rating plummeted. Now there are still three years to go before Julian Leiden's term of office. It is generally believed that in three years' time, Julian Leiden will not win the governor's election, and will definitely go away from the position of governor.

Therefore, interest groups pay less attention to Julian Leiden and are even less willing to cooperate with Julian Leiden. Julian Leiden was in a very bad situation in this kind of internal and external troubles.

But this is exactly what Yang Xiaotian needs.

If Julian Leiden is in a good situation, I'm afraid he won't cooperate with Yang Xiaotian. After all, Yang Xiaotian is a Chinese and sensitive. It is difficult for Julian Leiden to cooperate with Yang Xiaotian to deal with some forces in his own country unless he has to.

It's a pity that Julian Leiden is almost hopeless.

Yang Xiaotian finds Julian Leiden and makes a deal with him.

"I'm going to make a big move at MIT to overthrow a reactionary academic authority, which may shock North America. I want you to help me, at least to keep the Massachusetts government neutral. " Yang Xiaotian said.

"Why should I help you?" Asked Julian Leiden.

"Because I can help you, too." Yang Xiaotian said.

"How can you help me?" Asked Julian Leiden.

"You need achievements, and I can give them to you." Yang Xiaotian said, "don't you have many plans to attract investment? Now the unemployment rate in Massachusetts is very high. I can solve the employment problem of at least 50000 people in Massachusetts. "

Employment of 50000 people?

Julian Leiden was surprised.

It is well known that the labor force in North America is very high.

There are both advantages and disadvantages to the high labor cost. The advantage is that even if they are engaged in manual labor, they also have a good income, and the dollar is relatively strong, so that the ordinary wage earners can enter the level of "middle class". Live in a big house, drive a car, go camping on a Harley motorcycle, and have three small barbecues a day. The quality of life is also in the forefront of the world, second only to some small countries in Europe, such as Switzerland, Sweden, Luxembourg and so on.

But the disadvantage is that the labor force is too good. If the capitalists can not employ labor, they will not employ labor. All those labor-intensive industries will be transferred to places with low labor force, such as China, Southeast Asia and India. Therefore, the unemployment rate in North America has been high, and employment is a big problem.

And Massachusetts is the legendary "rust belt.".

What does "rust belt" mean?

In the past, there were many factories, but they all shut down, and the core assets of the factory moved away, leaving an empty shell. Over time, these factories have become rusty and overgrown.

The economy around the factory, which originally relied on the factory to revitalize itself, was also in a state of collapse. A large number of people around the factory fled. Most of those who stayed in the local area were unemployed, so they received some relief money to survive. The original middle class went bankrupt and fell into abject poverty.

As a result, the whole region has no vitality, public security has deteriorated, the economy is in a downturn, and the budget is in deficit. There was only a gloomy prospect, an atmosphere of despair.

So "rust belt" is also called "ring rust belt".

One of the most typical cities is Detroit. Anyone with a little historical knowledge knows that Detroit was once the most famous automobile manufacturing center in North America and even in the world, known as the automobile city. Once very prosperous, it represented a golden age for America.

However, Detroit was later impacted by the automobile manufacturing industry in Germany, Japan, South Korea and other countries, and the labor cost remained high. Many automobile manufacturers went bankrupt, and the living automobile manufacturers also moved abroad. Before long, Detroit became one of the cities with the highest crime and poverty rates in North America.

Now many houses in Detroit sell for only one dollar, but they can't sell. Because around the house, there are only rusty factories, and there are no employment opportunities. For the purchase of living materials, they have to drive to the city center, and there are many black people around, so the public security is very poor. And if you buy this house, you have to pay taxes. Most people with brains will not take advantage of it.

This is the status quo of "rust belt".

Massachusetts is also one of the rust belt, a large number of cities are unable to make ends meet, and there are many unemployed people. Julian Leiden was elected governor because he was supported by these poor people. The poor people supported him because he promised to solve the employment problem and increase welfare.

But it's hard to make a meal without rice! Even though Julian Leiden is well-educated, talented and capable, he can't beat a hero for a cent. He can't bring in investment, he has no money in finance, he has a passion in his spare time, and he can't do anything practical.

If Yang Xiaotian could provide 50000 jobs, it would be a great deal. Fifty thousand jobs can bring about the employment of millions of people! After all, 50000 workers need to be provided with food, clothing, housing and transportation. For example, in the city of "San Francisco", the discovery of gold only attracted tens of thousands of gold miners, but the industry generated by these gold miners formed a city.

And businesses pay taxes, rich state finances. And any modern enterprise does not exist alone, it needs supporting manufacturers. If the supporting manufacturers enter, it will form an economic belt, such as silicon valley.

In this way, the economy will be revitalized!
