Nine o’clock.
Langyu County.
Airport.
Xie Wei dragged his suitcase off the airplane, the third phase of the training was practical experience, requiring them to sit in on consultations personally. There weren’t enough positions for them in Xin’an City, so they were dispatched to hospitals in surrounding towns.
In the end.
He drew the lot that brought him here.
He was probably the one who traveled the farthest among the students.
Despite the distance.
He was quite happy about it, considering it was a free trip, with a plane for the return journey. He looked around; the airport in this county town was empty, with only the plane he had arrived on parked there.
It seems.
It was about to carry the next batch of passengers back.
Though the airport was small.
The facilities were brand new.
In terms of scale, it was on par with a fourth-tier domestic city airport. Being located on the outskirts of the county, there were only a few surrounding mountains to be seen. To get to the county town, one would have to navigate several mountains, according to the map.
Without staying long.
Xie Wei quickly left the airport.
At a glance.
He saw the person sent to pick him up.
It was a young man.
Who was holding a sign with his name on it.
Very young, in his twenties. Since they had spoken on the phone before, Xie Wei knew that the man was also a Chinese national from Myanmar, so he approached him politely: "Hello, I am Xie Wei, you must be He Jun, brother."
He Jun immediately nodded and said with a smile: "Dr. Xie, welcome! Follow me."
That’s right.
Xie Wei was a doctorate holder.
In this group of students.
The vast majority had doctoral degrees.
"Thank you for the trouble."
"You’re welcome."
Xie Wei followed He Jun to the parking lot and saw that He Jun had approached a white passenger car. Xie Wei recognized it; it was the ’Xinyue,’ which had just been launched in the domestic market last month but could be seen everywhere here.
"It’s really nice." Xie Wei praised inwardly.
The white version.
I don’t think it’s available domestically.
He Jun opened the door.
Noticing Xie Wei’s curiosity.
"The white version only went on sale five days ago. I bought it during the presale, and they shipped it to me right on the launch day. I guess you will have to wait until after the New Year to see it in Huaxia," He Jun explained.
"I also want to buy one, just worried about the charging, there are too few charging stations," Xie Wei said.
Electric cars.
The biggest fear is being stranded on the road.
With gasoline cars it’s still okay, you can flag down a car on the road, perhaps even buy some fuel, at worst at a high price, but with electric cars stranded on the road, you can’t borrow electricity, unless there’s a mobile charging vehicle.
But.
That image.
It’s too beautiful.
"There will be, eventually." He Jun smiled.
Then.
The car hit the road.
Vroom!
Hmm?
Xie Wei was taken aback.
Aren’t electric vehicles supposed to be silent? Why was there noise, and as the speed increased, the noise grew louder, lacking the vibrations of a gasoline car, but with a clear acceleration sound.
"Is this car... broken?" After a minute, Xie Wei couldn’t help but ask.
He Jun was taken aback.
My car, broken?
"Where?" He Jun asked anxiously.
Xie Wei said, "Why is there such a loud noise inside the car?"
Upon hearing that.
He Jun laughed.
That was the issue.
"It’s not broken, this is a sound compensation system that can simulate various car noises, providing the driver with a better driving experience, because not all people like it quiet inside the car."
"I got used to the feeling of stepping on the gas pedal, so I adjusted the car a bit. It can simulate the sound both internally and externally. This alerts pedestrians that a car is coming."
"Especially in crowded places, this functionality is quite nice. I guess you’ve never ridden an electric car from our place because here the law mandates that transportation vehicles must have a ’sound-emitting’ mode."
He Jun explained slowly.
Such a regulation.
Unique in the world.
There’s nothing like it elsewhere.
Although it’s a bit odd, it’s indeed necessary. Compared to pedestrians, vehicles have a ’dominant’ status. On the road, the dominant party needs to alert the ’subordinate’ that it’s coming."
"I see." Xie Wei suddenly understood.
Truly eccentric.
Car manufacturers are always pursuing lower noise levels.
Yet here, silent driving is not allowed.
It seems to make sense, though.
"How much does this car cost here?" Xie Wei asked again.
"This is a high-end model, 170,000 Asia Dollars." He Jun said.
"It would cost more than 200,000 on our side." Xie Wei suddenly felt it was a bad deal to buy this car, paying an extra 70,000 to 80,000. But then he thought, aren’t all imported cars expensive? They generally cost about half as much abroad as they do domestically.
Upon hearing this, He Jun smiled and said, "That’s for sure, imported cars have tariffs. I heard that the gasoline version will be available soon. I’m planning to buy a black one then."
Xie Wei: "..."
Have I run into a local tyrant?
"May I ask if it was your wages that paid for it?" Xie Wei was really curious.
"No."
He Jun shook his head.
Just when Xie Wei thought He Jun would mention his family giving him the money.
"I made it from stocks." He Jun said.
"Stocks?" Xie Wei was surprised.
He hadn’t expected this. He didn’t even know there was a stock market here that one could profit from. Before, he was so busy at the hospital, and since coming here, he had been tirelessly studying without concern for such matters.
"Yes, in mid-October, the Myanmar Stock market opened. I happened to have some savings then. I borrowed some from my family, put together 250,000 and went in. Eventually, I turned a small fortune into a motorcycle, earning over a million."
He Jun spoke nonchalantly.
It wasn’t about showing off.
In the Myanmar Stock market, there are really too many people who have made money. He didn’t think it was anything special. Earning a million or more was just average. Many who believed in Ling and in the future of Myanmar have made money.
At that time.
As far as he knew.
Many big bosses and employees from the Myanmar series, whether from enterprises, institutional units, government employees, and even military soldiers, all bought a lot of stocks for themselves or had their families buy them.
All of a sudden.
Those who followed Ling.
Most of them reached prosperity and even wealth.
And in that moment.
The cohesion among the people of the Myanmar series strengthened, and their resolve to follow Ling’s steps became even more firm because Ling could bring benefits to everyone. Following Ling meant having meat to eat; even those who didn’t believe had soup to drink.
Xie Wei: "..."
So he really did run into a local tyrant.
More than a million Asia Dollars.
That’s more than a million RMB. If you want to buy a car, just sell some stocks – truly casual.
"Impressive."
"No, I’m not impressive. I just caught a free ride on the big trend. In these two months, at least hundreds of thousands of people have made more than a million on the Myanmar Stock market."
"I’m just a small fish," He Jun said modestly.
"..." 𝓷ℴ𝓿𝓹𝓾𝒷.𝓬𝓸𝓂
Xie Wei was flabbergasted once again.
Making money seemed too easy.
He’s even considering buying stocks now.
Seeing the look on Xie Wei’s face, He Jun chuckled, "If you’re interested, you might also be able to buy Myanmar stocks next year. I heard that Huaxia and our side are discussing opening up the securities transaction channels between the two countries."
"This news has been out for over a month. The specifics aren’t clear yet, but there’s definitely a possibility. In March, that what’s-its-name company in your country... right, Qingyuan Technology, is going public on our market."
"What?" Xie Wei cried out in surprise.
Qingyuan Technology.
Even if he wasn’t following the news, he couldn’t possibly not know this company.
A representative of Huaxia’s innovation.
The creator of ’Epoch.’
And they’re going public in Myanmar?
"Looks like you’ve been truly busy. That’s right, it’s Qingyuan Technology owned by Tang Qing, Huaxia’s richest man. Starting from February, he has three companies going public in Hong Kong, New York, and the Myanmar Stock market."
"It’s a shame I can only buy Myanmar stocks," He Jun said, disappointed.
