Chapter 009 China and Japan

Two days later, on the evening of January 3, Lin Yaren and Yamada Taku also slept in the same bedroom. Starting tomorrow and ending the holiday, everything returned to normal working and studying.

Takuya Yamada will also return to Yokohama City University to attend classes early tomorrow morning, and of course, Lin Yaren will open an account at a securities firm and then buy all Nintendo stocks.

Lin Yaren was relaxed at all when others completely relaxed during the holidays. He used this period of time to think about a lot of things.

I didn't think that if his soul suddenly returned to RB Yokohama in 1983, a butterfly effect would have occurred, causing a series of changes?

What if Nintendo's stock does not soar 40 times in three months, what should I do? In addition, is it that is the only one who comes from the soul, or is there someone he doesn't know who comes from the soul?

Even if Lin Yaren closed her eyes, she could not fall asleep so early. Before she had no soul to pass through here, she would not go to bed until one or two o'clock in the morning.

Now it is nine or ten o'clock in the evening, which is exactly when nightlife just started. Even the RB in 1983 is still rich and colorful nightlife.

Even if Yokohama's nightlife is not as good as Tokyo's nightlife, it should be all there, and there will be no less. The prosperity and excitement of the streets at night is not in the Aoba District where Lin Yaren is currently in, but in the Naka and West District closer to the seaside.

RB people can spend one-third, or even half of their monthly income on nightlife. It is not as monotonous as the nightlife in mainland China in 1983, and it is almost none.

No matter how different the times are, there is one thing in common, that is, if you don’t have money in your pocket, don’t think about nightlife, or lie down and sleep early, and get up the next day tomorrow to work well.

At this time, RB people were much happier than mainland Chinese people, after all, the economy took off earlier. What's more, the RB economy has entered its heyday now.

The self-confidence of the RB citizens was not only completely restored from the defeat of World War II, but also the public opinion of "RB first" and "dominating the world" had already appeared in RB's society.

After all, Lin Yaren majored in economics and minored in finance in his previous life, and thus obtained a double degree and a professional man.

He naturally knew very well that during this period, RB once won the "triple crown" within a year.

That is, it evaluates a country's comprehensive strength foreign exchange reserves, the world's largest overseas investment quota, and the world's first GDP.

In contrast, it would be a great thing for ordinary Chinese families in 1983 to have a black and white TV.

At night, even if there is only CCTV One, the program playback time is usually up to 9 pm, and black and white TVs will be placed in the yard outside the house.

By then, many neighbors will gather around to see it. This is a nightlife that is common in ordinary people in mainland Chinese cities.

Otherwise, those who have finished middle or night shifts will eat a bowl of noodles, a bowl of hand-copying at street stalls, etc.

The Yamada family is considered a poor family in RB, and they have already used color TVs. The "three magical tools" in the late 1950s, which is equivalent to the "three major items" in mainland China, meant the same thing, but the things were different.

Their "three artifacts" include black and white TVs, washing machines, and refrigerators. When RB entered the mid-1960s, the "new three artifacts" came into being, and they became color TVs, cars, and air conditioners.

RB's urban citizen class at that time had such value orientations and values. Even if it could not be fully achieved for a while, it still yearned for this.

I don’t know, but I only know how backward the mainland was at that time. Only those Chinese who were able to go abroad to RB knew this kind of backwardness were the most clear.

Among ordinary people in China, they become rich first or have a cadre family, and they already have a special liking for RB products, so there is no saying that they boycott Japanese goods at all.

Even though mainland China entered the entire 1990s, color TVs, washing machines, and refrigerators were not fully popular in the city.

In some local cities, they still serve as the "three new items" of newly married couples or things that the woman requires the man to prepare.

As for cars and air conditioners, the popularity of cities in mainland China is already at the time when Lin Yaren travels here around 2021.

Just in mid-May 2020, when 600 million Chinese people had a monthly income of only 1,000 yuan, it caused a sensation of public opinion.

What he quoted was the conclusion report that the Beijing Normal University income survey team selected more than 70,000 samples in 2019. The full text was even more shocking.

According to the calculation of nearly 1.4 billion people nationwide, there are 963.93 million people with monthly income of less than 2,000 yuan, accounting for 68.85% of the national population.

The number of people with a monthly income of more than 5,000 yuan is considered a high-income group, with only 71.82 million people, accounting for 5.13% of the national population.

People who can earn 5,000 yuan this month are mainly concentrated in first- and second-tier cities. They are completely different from college students' fantasies about finding a job worth 5,000 yuan a month after graduation.

It’s not like the “gods” who earn 300,000 yuan a month and have no sense of accomplishment, who live in the same world.

"Are you asleep?" Takuya Yamada opened his eyes and looked at the many places in his bedroom that were not only black and yellow, but also some mottled painted ceilings.

"I'm asleep." Lin Yaren was interrupted by the other party's question, and just smiled.

"I want to tell you something. This is the first time I told you, and it is also the first time I told you that I don't even know my own sister Yamada's future." Takuya Yamada said seriously.

Lin Yaren suddenly opened her eyes and moved her body toward him, interested: "Can you have a girlfriend?"

"No." Takuya Yamada also turned his body to face him, and replied firmly.

"It's boring. Look at your mysterious appearance, I thought you had a girlfriend." Lin Yaren's interest disappeared all of a sudden.

"I'll tell you, don't laugh." Takuya Yamada also became more and more serious.
