In the face of the global financial crisis, the officers and men of a
vehicle spare parts warehouse under the Beijing Military Area Command held a
heated discussion recently on China's investment of four trillion yuan in
various projects to boost economy and domestic demands over the next two years.
Soldier Liu Yang said, "It is just what common people hoped for!" His
father runs a factory, but the sale of products falls sharply due to the impact
of the global financial crisis. Hearing the news that the Central Government
will adopt measures to further boost domestic demands, his father immediately
told him that his factory could be bailed out now.
Zhu Xuecai, a veteran soldier, originally planed to seek a job in the
cities after he completes his service in the army this year. He has now changed
his mind. He decides to return to his hometown to start a business on his own.
He said: "Considerable amount of four trillion yuan investment of the Central
Government will be devoted to the construction of rural infrastructure and
improvement of the living standards of peasants over the next two years. This
gives me more confidence to start my own business in my hometown."
Finally, Wen Qin, head of the warehouse, summed up the discussion by
saying: "Although the global financial crisis is bearing down on us menacingly,
we believe that under the leadership of the Party, our country will surely be
able to turn crisis into opportunities and make new achievements. Since we are
all soldiers, we must do our own job well at this critical moment to create a
safe and stable environment for the national economic construction of our
country."
