The Next Thirty Years
Buffett said that getting rich also requires betting on the national fortune. The so-called national fortune is not only the overall trend of the country, but also the trend of the country’s constituent units. From individuals to enterprises, the fate of all units is closely related to the national fortune. About 5 years ago, when public intellectuals were still active on Weibo, Chinese people felt that China was not good enough, and they always praised the United States. In 2020, the global outbreak of the new crown epidemic occurred. After questioning the government’s ineffective fight against the epidemic to being surprised by the great defeat of the West in fighting the epidemic, Chinese people suddenly discovered that we have surpassed the old Western empires in many aspects. This year, in the process of dealing with the world’s number one country, the United States, in the Anchorage talks in March, fighting away from home, we clearly stated: You (the United States) are not qualified to stand in front of China and say that you speak to China from a position of strength. In the Tianjin talks in July, fighting at home, we directly threw two lists, three bottom lines and four stops to the United States. After seeing clearly whether the other party is a paper tiger or a real tiger, we are too lazy to even engage in tentative butt touching, and directly prepare to burn the other party with a fire. This fire is no longer increasing the export of cheap industrial products and consumer goods as requested by the US to suppress the inflation caused by Biden’s currency issuance.
Standing in 2021, looking back at the great rejuvenation proposed by the high-level in 2016, the new era proposed in 2017, and the great changes unseen in a century proposed in 2018, I have to admire the pattern and bearing of the contemporary leadership. In order to comply with the two overall situations, the new development concept of “innovation, coordination, green, open, and sharing” was proposed to guide social and economic development, and a new development pattern with the domestic cycle as the main body and the domestic and international dual cycles promoting each other was created, and the second centenary goal was realized in two steps.
In the next 30 years, the biggest investment opportunities lie in the second centenary goal. And where exactly to settle, we have to find the answer from the document.
Regarding the second centenary goal, the 15th National Congress in 1997 stated that by the middle of the century when the country is 100 years old, modernization will be basically realized and a prosperous, democratic, and civilized socialist country will be built. The 19th National Congress in 2017 stated: Build China into a prosperous, democratic, civilized, harmonious, and beautiful modern socialist country. The latest expression adds harmony and beauty compared to the initial expression.
If you raise them with the Tao, the people will be harmonious. If you raise them with virtue, the people will be united. Harmony leads to harmony, and harmony leads to peace. Peace leads to completeness, and nothing can hurt it. The addition of the word harmony reflects one of the most important considerations of the second centenary goal, “common prosperity”. The addition of beauty is the development guide for the future low-carbon economy. Prosperity and strength require the blessing of technology. And the foundation of everything requires a large number of qualified human resources as a foundation. Therefore, the theme words for future social development are: free fertility, technology dual carbon, high-quality development, common prosperity, and the Belt and Road Initiative.
