When the old man heard his granddaughter say this, he smiled and said, "Okay, then let's go in and have a look." ”

So saying, the old man walked up the steps with the help of the little girl.

At this time, Liu Qingyu heard someone stepping on the steps, immediately terminated the conversation with Qin Ruijie, walked out, and saw an old man and a little girl going up the steps, Liu Qingyu walked down quickly without hesitation, stretched out his hand to support the old man's other arm, and said with great concern: "Old man, why don't I carry you up on my back?" Although this step has been reinforced, it is still not stable enough. ”

The old man shook his head with a smile and said, "It's okay, it's okay, although I have old arms and legs, my body is okay." ”

Then, the old man walked into their exhibition area with the support of Liu Qingyu.

Seeing that some guests entered the exhibition area, Qin Ruijie and several other people stopped chatting one after another, and looked at the old man and the little girl in a very friendly manner.

Liu Qingyu looked at the old man with a smile and said: "Old man, do you see if you can take a look by yourself, or do you need us to help you interpret the relevant information of our Xinhua District of Cangshan City, if you have any needs, you can mention it to us, and we will respect your decision." ”

This is the attitude of Xinhua District towards every customer who comes to participate in the exhibition. They will not be overly enthusiastic, and will explain the various advantages and benefits of Xinhua District to customers, so as not to be offensive, and will not be too alienated, so that customers do not feel the importance of Xinhua District to them.

After the old man heard Liu Qingyu's words, his eyelids raised and glanced at Liu Qingyu, and said with a smile: "Young man, what's your name?"

"Old man, my name is Liu Qingyu. Liu Qingyu replied directly. Although he was a little puzzled by the old man's very boring question, Liu Qingyu still did not show disgust and answered very seriously.

"Oh, it's Liu Qingyu, how old are you this year, do you have a girlfriend?" the old man continued.

At this moment, Qin Ruijie, Li Xiaoxia and the others next to him all showed a smile on their faces, and the questions asked by the old man seemed to be trying to introduce Liu Qingyu to the object.

Liu Qingyu still replied very seriously: "Old man, I am 23 years old this year and I don't have a girlfriend for the time being. ”

Subsequently, the old man asked Liu Qingyu a few very ordinary questions, and Liu Qingyu still answered very seriously. After asking 8 questions in a row, the old man stopped his questioning, and then said with a smile: "Xiaoliu, I also came to take a look after reading the advertisement published in your Xinhua District of Cangshan City in the newspaper this morning, your advertisement is very creative, I don't know which of you came up with it?"

Liu Qingyu said with a smile: "It is the result of all of us brainstorming together. ”

The old man smiled again, and then said: "Xiaoliu, in recent years, there have been very fierce discussions about the slowdown of our economy in China and abroad.

As soon as the old man's question was raised, everyone at the scene was stunned, including Qin Ruijie.

No one thought that this old man who asked a series of common questions, as if he was the old man next door, suddenly asked a very profound question in the economic field, and the question raised by the old man was also very sharp, ordinary people really couldn't answer it, even Qin Ruijie couldn't answer it.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Liu Qingyu. Because when encountering difficulties, the first thing that comes to everyone's mind is Liu Qingyu.

After hearing the old man's question, although Liu Qingyu felt a little surprised, his gaze at the old man was still the same as before, and he looked very flat, and he said with a smile: " One of them is that Morgan Stanley researchers have proposed that when per capita GDP reaches $7,000, high-growth economies usually begin to slow down, and the other is a paper by the US Bureau of National Economic Research that when per capita GDP reaches $17,000 in purchasing power parity terms, high-growth economies begin to slow down。 ”

Hearing that Liu Qingyu did not hesitate or refer to it, and directly answered his own question, the old man looked at Liu Qingyu with a little more warmth and appreciation, and then asked a very professional question again: "Xiaoliu, what do you think about the demographic dividend issue now? How do you think we in China should deal with the current complex and severe economic image?"

Liu Qingyu smiled faintly and said: "Old man, I think that for us in Huaxia, the demographic dividend is declining rapidly, and it is close to disappearing. Under such circumstances, the sustainability of economic development cannot depend on the low cost of land, resources, capital, and labor. It is necessary to rely on the improvement of total factor labor productivity. Including the regional transfer of industries, labor-intensive industries should speed up the transfer to the central and western regions. This includes improving the efficiency of technology, including the government's need to eliminate some backward production capacity and inefficient enterprises, improve the overall quality and industrial skills of human resources, and provide a good macroeconomic environment for the survival of the fittest. At present, our country is vigorously rectifying and reforming these areas, and I am confident that we will succeed. ”

After listening to Liu Qingyu's answer, the old man's face, which had been very calm, finally showed a little shock, but the old man's face quickly returned to normal, and he said with a smile: "Xiaoliu, do you think your Xinhua District of Cangshan City has any advantages when undertaking some labor-intensive high-tech industries? What is your Xinhua District's attitude towards the pollution problem when attracting investment?"

At this moment, although Liu Qingyu's face still does not change, his heart has been fluctuating, because Liu Qingyu can already feel it from the old man's questions and eyes, the old man seems to be very calm in the areas he is asking, even in the face of his own answers, the old man is also looking at himself with a kind of scrutiny, judgment, Liu Qingyu knows very well that the reason why he can answer this old man's question is because of the good treatment he has received since he was a child. Elite education, including the fact that he has been mixed with uncles such as Zhuge Feng, Dudu and Sun Guangyao since he was a child, and often read some domestic and foreign works in the fields of politics, economics, and the international situation under their guidance, which made his knowledge quite broad, plus his hunger for study during college.

Normally, Liu Qingyu is very aware of the shock that his knowledge and depth can bring to ordinary people, and Liu Qingyu even unceremoniously thinks that he is better than some so-called economic experts. However, in front of the old man, Liu Qingyu saw a trace of indifference, although the old man was surprised that he could answer these questions, but he was not shocked. This fully shows that the old man is actually not very satisfied with the answer he answered. This is what shocked Liu Qingyu the most.

Therefore, when the old man asked the last two questions, Liu Qingyu answered more cautiously, and he said in a deep voice: "Old man, I don't think that our Xinhua District of Cangshan City has no advantages compared with other regions, especially compared with the central and western regions, when undertaking labor-intensive industries. As for the process of attracting foreign investment, in the treatment of pollution, our Xinhua District's attitude is that we would rather not introduce projects, and we must not let the land of our Xinhua District be polluted, the introduction of projects and funds are optional, but once the land is polluted, it is more difficult to govern, so we are ready to introduce some relatively small pollution and equipped with a good sewage treatment system in this inter-provincial exchange meeting. Even enterprises and projects that are not polluting, we do not blindly introduce funds and projects, we do not introduce funds and projects for the sake of introducing funds and projects. ”

After Liu Qingyu finished speaking, the old man's face soothed a little again, and the eyes that looked at Liu Qingyu had already brought a smile, he nodded slightly and said, "Well, yes, it seems that you have worked hard over the years." No wonder your teacher Xu Zifeng admires you so much, you are indeed a manufacturable material. ”

Hearing the old man mention his university economics tutor Xu Zifeng, Liu Qingyu was stunned.

Liu Qingyu, a teacher of Xu Zifeng, is very clear, Mr. Xu is definitely a leading figure in the domestic economics field, and he has learned a lot from Mr. Xu during his college years, and Mr. Xu really appreciates him very much. And this old man actually knows Mr. Xu, which shows that this old man is not simple.

Therefore, at this moment, Liu Qingyu treated the old man with more respect, and he hurriedly said, "Old man, do you know my Teacher Xu?"

The old man smiled and said: "I know, how can I not know you! Back then, we were all college classmates! This time, he heard that you were going to come to our Nanping City to participate in this inter-provincial exchange meeting, so he recommended you to me, saying that he wanted you to study with me. But I didn't say yes, I told him that I had to come over first to see if you were qualified to be my student. ”

After hearing the old man's words, Liu Qingyu's eyes suddenly widened. He never thought that there would be such a thing. You know, he only talked to the teacher on the phone a few days ago and asked the teacher some questions, but Mr. Xu did not disclose this aspect at that time.

At this time, the old man smiled and said, "Don't be surprised, I estimate that your teacher will call you in a while, and when the time comes, you tell him that I will accept you as a student." ”

At this time, the little girl took out a note from her pocket that had already been written and handed it to Liu Qingyu and said, "Brother Liu, this is the address and phone number of our house, you can come over when you have time." ”

When Liu Qingyu took the note, he still felt a little incredible.

At this moment, the old man took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Liu Qingyu with a smile and said: "Since I, who is a teacher, have accepted you as an apprentice, I have to give some meeting gifts, otherwise Xu Zifeng, that old guy, should say that I am stingy, you put away this business card, and when you have time, call the person on the business card, and it depends on you whether you can get the benefits." ”

After saying that, the old man turned around and left with the little girl.
