Bob doesn't know which government department in Huaxia is responsible for this matter, but it doesn't matter, since Mr. Fernández said that Huaxia's hunger for foreign investment is like a traveler in the desert who longs for clear water, then no matter which government department he is looking for, Bob Todd is too lazy to find someone else, he directly found the secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Huaxia who has been with him for the past two days - as for whether this secretary Sun is a secretary or not, Or the secretary of which department, only the ghost knows.

"Sun," Bob Todd asked Secretary Sun, "Mr. Fernandez said that you have some preferential policies in terms of land and taxation when investing in you, is that true?"

Hearing Bob Todd's words, Secretary Sun was stunned: Mr. Bob Todd actually took the initiative to ask about Huaxia's investment promotion policy?!

He couldn't believe his ears!

For the Chinese government, of course, they want any foreign businessman to come to China...... It doesn't matter what they're here for...... Most people can invest and do business in China, but for Huaxia in 80 and 81, it is really too difficult to attract foreign businessmen to invest, why did the Ministry of Foreign Affairs arrange for Secretary Sun to accompany Bob Todd throughout the whole process? Isn't it just so that Bob Todd can invest in China.

But before this, no matter how Secretary Sun hinted and knocked on the side, Bob Todd could always push aside as if he didn't understand, but now, Bob Todd actually took the initiative to ask?

Even though Bob Todd had already said that the reason why he asked this was because of what Mr. Chen Geng helped to say, Secretary Sun still felt a little dizzy with happiness.

"Yes, yes," enduring this happy dizziness, Secretary Sun said tentatively and cautiously to Bob Todd: "Our country has a lot of preferential conditions in land, taxes, electricity and many other aspects...... Well, let me tell you more about it?"

"Hmmm......"

"In terms of taxation, we have implemented a policy of two exemptions and three halves......

Bob Todd was immediately stunned: "What do you mean by two free and three halved?"

"The so-called two exemptions and three halves are the preferential tax policies set up by our country for foreign investors, and in a nutshell, foreign-invested enterprises can enjoy the year from which they make a profit. The enterprise income tax will be exempted for two years, and the enterprise income tax will be reduced by half for the next three years, and after the expiration of the five-year tax reduction and exemption period, you can also apply for an extension of three years to reduce the income tax by half. ”

That is...... Eight years in total?" said Bob Todd stunned, he couldn't believe that there was such a good thing?

Secretary Sun thought that Bob Todd was not satisfied with this policy, and hurriedly explained: "Yes, in addition, if your company is an export-oriented enterprise, in addition to the preferential corporate income tax of two exemptions and six halves, as long as your company's annual export volume accounts for more than 70% of the total sales of the enterprise, you can enjoy the preferential treatment of corporate income tax halved again after the preferential period; ”

Based on the instinct of a successful businessman, Bob Todd immediately began to calculate instinctively: he is doing an electronic foundry business, and his customers are basically domestic companies in the United States, and almost 100% of his products are exported, so doesn't that mean that he can enjoy the preferential treatment of halving the corporate income tax almost permanently?

Seeing that Bob Todd was not bored, Secretary Sun continued: "As for land, we also have policies, and the specific policies are ......."

........................

"Mr. Fernández ......"

Bob Todd, who was standing in front of Chen Geng, had a slightly uneasy expression.

"Huh?" Chen Geng raised his eyebrows, signaling that Bob Todd had something to say.

"I've heard Secretary Sun introduce the policy to me. ”

"Hmmm......"

"The conditions given by the Huaxia government are too good. ”

"And then?"

"And then I was a little reassured," Bob Todd whispered, "they won't be...... It's ......"

"If you have anything to say, you don't have to hide it so much. ”

"OK, then I'll get straight to the point," Bob Todd gritted his teeth, "I think...... I'm not sure, but I think ...... The Huaxia government wouldn't have the idea of tricking me and confiscating my factory after it was completed, right?"

Chen Geng: "......"

He was very glad that he didn't shout any tea, drinks or anything like that in his mouth at this moment, otherwise Chen Geng dared to guarantee that he would definitely spray Bob Todd in the face: Good guy, Bob Todd is worried about this?

Bob Todd looked distressed, and said to himself: "I don't know if you have such worries, but the conditions they gave are so good, I always feel that they are lying to me." ”

Patting Bob Todd on the shoulder, Chen Geng's face was sympathetic: "Man, I understand your feelings, you just want to find a gold mine, but you find a gold mountain in front of you, you always have an unreal feeling, right?"

"Yes, that's right," Bob Todd nodded with a sad face, "It's so unreal, how can there be such generous conditions, they can't make much tax from us, I can't understand ......"

"You think too much, in addition to corporate income tax, an enterprise also has to pay value-added tax, business tax, consumption tax, stamp duty and many other taxes, and what you are exempted from is only corporate income tax, you don't have to worry about the government not collecting taxes on you," Chen Geng patted Bob Todd's shoulder again speechlessly: "In addition, you have paid wages to the workers, and the workers have to consume, right? Huaxia's goods are subject to in-price tax, which means that the workers pay taxes to the state when they consume;

Because of your procurement, your upstream industry has to pay taxes to the state;

Your canteen consumes a lot of water, electricity, food, and non-staple food every day, which are all money;

In addition to these, your company will also drive shops, hotels, restaurants, and barbershops in the surrounding area...... and other service industry development, these enterprises are also subject to tax.

The whole perimeter benefits from your company......"

Shrugging his shoulders and making a gesture of "you really think too much", Chen Geng said: "So, how much benefit is it to forcibly confiscate your business? I believe that any government can calculate this account, of course, if you insist on thinking so, I can also understand." ”

It's just that with this sentence "I can understand", there is also Chen Geng's caring eyes for the mentally retarded.

Bob Todd knew very well the meaning in Chen Geng's eyes: Do you think this kind of good thing happens every day?

Bob Todd gritted his teeth: "I ...... I'll think about it again......"

On the one hand, he felt that the conditions given by the Huaxia government were so good that he couldn't help but doubt his life, but on the other hand, he also felt that Chen Geng's analysis was very correct, and the Huaxia government should not be so stupid.

But this has nothing to do with Chen Geng, he still knows the truth of being too late.

........................

Chen Geng felt that this matter was over, and it had nothing to do with him how to develop next, he had done his part, which meant enough, right?

However, Chen Gengxiao took the importance that he attached to this matter, and on the evening of the same day, Vice Minister Li Ming of the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation quietly paid a visit.

Chen Geng was a little puzzled by Li Ming's visit at first, but when Li Ming first thanked Chen Geng for introducing Bob Todd to invest in China, Chen Geng understood his intention, and before Li Ming finished speaking, Chen Geng said: "Vice Minister Li, I understand what you mean, do you want me to continue to do Bob's work?"

"Yes," Li Ming was a little embarrassed: "Mr. Chen, I heard from the comrades that Mr. Todd was actually quite reluctant to invest in Huaxia at the beginning, and it was only under your persuasion that he changed his attitude, so he ......"

Chen Geng raised his hand to interrupt him: "Vice Minister Li, what I can do is relatively limited, what I can do is already done, and the problem now lies with you." ”

"We?" Li Ming was dumbfounded.

"Yes, Bob's biggest problem right now is that he thinks the terms you are giving are too good, and he is worried about whether you are trying to trick him into building the factory first and then confiscating his factory. ”

"How is this possible?" Li Ming didn't think that the problem was actually in this place, and for a while smoke came out of his head: "How can we do this?!" We offer such investment conditions to everyone, but also to attract everyone to invest ......

"I understand what you said," Chen Geng smiled and spread his hands: "But the problem now is that Bob thinks so in his heart, so it's useless for you to tell me this." ”

Vice Minister Li was silent, and after listening to Chen Geng's words, he also realized that the key to leaving Mr. Bob Todd's investment was how to let Bob Todd let go of his worries.

"Oh, by the way, let me remind you one more thing," Chen Geng thought about it, but still told him the news of Flex's imminent relocation: "Now Flex is looking to move out of the United States, and they are already preparing to relocate the factory to one of Singapore, Malaysia or Indonesia, so you better move quickly and targeted." ”

"What?!" Hearing Chen Geng's words, Vice Minister Li couldn't sit still for an instant, and he took a deep breath: "Mr. Chen, don't joke about this. ”

During this time, they also collected some information about Flex, such as the scale of Flex, turnover, the number of workers employed, etc., if it is true that Flex plans to move out of the United States, then it is not completely different from investing in a factory in Huaxia: Flex employs more than 2,000 workers in the factory in the United States, and if it can convince Mr. Bob Todd to relocate the factory to Huaxia, it means that it can provide at least more than 2,000 jobs!

Considering that Mr. Bob Todd came to China to pursue Chen Geng's order, it means that if Flex and Garrett 2000 reach a partnership, they will at least double the number of workers they employ, that is, a super-large factory with almost 5,000 workers, which is conservatively estimated to generate hundreds of millions of dollars in foreign exchange earnings for the country a year......

Thinking of this, Vice Minister Li could no longer be calm.

Hundreds of millions of dollars a year, even if it is only 200 million, is worth two months of China's foreign exchange earnings, this is no longer a question of trying to strive for it, this is a problem that must be fought for with all our might!

But to be on the safe side, he had to determine the truth of the matter first.

"Mr. Chen, you ...... Is this true?" Li Ming said in a trembling voice: "This is what Mr. Todd said to you personally?"

"Well," Chen Geng replied, nodding and said, "If there are no special accidents, Flextronics will definitely move out of the United States within half a year." ”

Looking at Chen Geng's affirmative expression, Li Ming didn't think that Chen Geng was fooling himself, but instinctively thought that this was the information that Bob Todd deliberately revealed to Chen Geng in order to get Chen Geng's order, and he didn't ask how to guarantee the problem of Garrett 2000 OEM if the factory moved away, there are too many ways to solve this problem: first put the Garrett 2000 order in the United States, and at the same time build a factory at the destination, and gradually distribute the orders to the new factory after the new factory is completed......

That's right! Bob Todd must have told Chen Geng.

With Chen Geng's affirmative answer, Li Ming breathed a sigh of relief, and now he had only one thought in his mind: This is a great opportunity, and we must seize it!

If kneeling down for Chen Geng can solve the problem, Vice Minister Li will definitely kneel down for Chen Geng without saying a word, but at this moment, he can only move Chen Geng with affection and reason, after all, the reason why Bob Todd is willing to consider Huaxia is that Chen Geng is contributing: "Mr. Chen, you are not an outsider, and you know the situation in our country, so I will not go around with you, I ask you to ...... on behalf of the country No, I beg you, please think of a way, be sure to let Mr. Todd move the factory to our Huaxia.

Well, if you have any problems, please feel free to say so, and I promise that the state will do its best to help you solve them. ”

The last sentence is undoubtedly hinting at Chen Geng: as long as you can find a way to keep Flextronics in Huaxia, you can mention whatever you want.

I knew it was so!

Vice Minister Li's reaction was not Chen Geng's expectation, he smiled and said sincerely: "Vice Minister Li, I don't think you should discuss this matter with me now, it is better to find a way to report this matter to the top as soon as possible, and everyone brainstorms." ”

That's right!

Because he was too excited, Li Ming was reminded by Chen Geng before he finally reacted that this matter was no longer something that he, a "small" vice minister of foreign trade and economic cooperation, could handle, and this was a major event that would certainly alarm the core leadership group, and he must report the matter as soon as possible -- it is estimated that many departments and leaders will not have to sleep tonight.
