Chapter 302
In the measure of "improving the convenience of people from friendly countries in Asia to travel to Lanzhou" mentioned by Gu Kun just now, increasing flight coverage is only secondary, and it is still "simplifying visas".
If the question just now was asked by Mr. Yang of CNOOC and a friend who replaced China Travel, then Gu Kun could not mention increasing the density of flights at all.
Even if there were old friends such as Mr. Ye or He Lan from COSCO who were present, it would be counterproductive to be in such a hurry to increase the density of flights - you pay so much attention to air travel, where is the vigorous development of the cruise tour project?
Although increasing the density of flights, it is good for other suppliers in China, such as the three major airlines. However, the interests of the airlines are related to COSCO's, the interests of the small group are always the first, Gu Kun was the thigh of COSCO at the beginning of his career, so he can't forget his roots in front of the brothers, and some things to do must be done secretly, just do not say.
The strength of seeing people and talking about people, and talking nonsense when they see ghosts, Gu Kun has already been trained over the years.
The words just now were all for me to talk about, and then I watched the dishes and eat.
Mr. Yamazaki was really interested in increasing the density of flights, so he asked a lot about this detail first.
"You really have too few flights, so far only Tokyo has five flights a week, and Osaka only has two flights a week, so Kyushu and Western tourists are very resistant, I think you should at least open another route in Fukuoka or Hiroshima, Kansai people go to Osaka to fly who can stand it. ”
Yamazaki seems to have a grudge against this issue for a long time, and as soon as he complains, he will not finish.
"We will deal with it as soon as possible, isn't it now that the first runway of Lanfang International Airport is almost full, and the second runway will be put into commercial use in 03 years sooner. Gu Kun coped with two sentences.
"Then let's talk about the simplified preferential treatment for visas, I'm quite looking forward to this-Gu Sang, you were too inauthentic before, we said that we came in person, but we didn't give visa-free, or even visa-on-arrival, are we afraid that we will say that I don't have money to spend?
I dare to say that if you are willing to go abroad, there will be no place where you can't be chic when you get that money to the price zone of Southeast Asia! Your tourist visa actually has to check whether our guests have official jobs and income certificates. Freelancers also need to make deposits or proof of assets, which is too much. ”
Gu Kun argued: "Aren't we improving, and before, we were absolutely equal, you said that this is for our Lan Fang people, don't you also need proof of assets to sign smoothly."
Moreover, our country is too small, and it will take time to build infrastructure and increase tourism capacity. A small country with a population of 70,000 nationalities now has a permanent labor force of nearly 300,000 and millions of foreign tourists every year. If the full landing visa is released, we will not be able to receive the number of people pouring in at all, and there must always be a priority that comes first and last.
If this matter is not fair, you should not feel unjust, I think it is this Mr. Yang and his friends who should be unfair. ”
As soon as Gu Kun changed his words, he led the topic to President Yang of CNOOC, as well as several executives of China Travel Service who accompanied him.
Gu Kun also told the truth, not looking for a shield.
He explained very seriously: "Huaxia treats us Lan Fang preferential enough, right? Actually, they treat you well enough, so far, Huaxia has only granted visa-free treatment to foreigners from three countries, the first is your Yueben, followed by Li Jiapo, the third is Brunei, and the fourth is our Lan Fang, and there is no fifth."
But our country is small, and we can't afford to carry it without setting a threshold, so we don't dare to give Huaxia visa-free reciprocity. ”
(Note: The visa-free version was cancelled in later generations, but it was still visa-free to Japan until the 90s and the beginning of the 21st century.)
Gu Kun's words are very tenable in principle, and Yamazaki is not easy to say.
So Gu Kun took advantage of the opportunity to squeeze the other party with his words, and took advantage of the victory to pursue: "However, since we have mentioned this matter this time, we must have more flexible discounts." Previously, we reviewed the financial conditions of the Chinese guests, and even for your guests, and they were 'have a legitimate job, or have a fixed property right', and an additional '50,000 yuan frozen deposit' or '1 million yen frozen deposit'.
Now, on this basis, we are willing to relax the deposit requirements for the latter half. As long as there is a legitimate job or fixed asset that is unlikely to be abandoned, the money can be replaced with other flexible conditions. ”
The conditions mentioned by Gu Kun may be strange to many post-90s or post-00s officials, but if it is a post-80s generation, or those friends who have gone abroad relatively early and gone to play in their teens, they should be no strangers.
Because I said that my visa financial review of China is also becoming more and more relaxed as China becomes stronger year by year (the purpose is, of course, to attract tourists to spend money, relax the threshold, and boost the economy, which may not be a good intention, and the motive is not to be considered)
After 2010, the Chinese basically had a serious job and a house under their name, and they went to the financial review of the book directly, also because the house in Huaxia was worth a lot in later generations. I don't think it's possible for someone to abandon Huaxia's house in exchange for an opportunity to sneak away to Yueben to work as a black worker.
Before 2010, even if you had a house in Huaxia at that time, you still had to see if you had any savings, and generally asked you to freeze a deposit of at least 50,000 yuan, with a deposit period of more than half a year, and the date of unfreezing was after entering the country. The purpose of this clause is obviously to ensure that the visitor has a shopping budget of 50,000 yuan to spend on the bank.
In other words, in fact, in the early years, he didn't welcome the Chinese to go, they only welcomed the small number of people who "could spend 50,000 yuan on the territory", and let you go in order to earn your 50,000 yuan.
So far, Lan Fang people also need to use a money card threshold, of course, Gu Kun is still different from himself, he is very friendly to the Chinese, he is also Chinese, but Lan Fang is too small, and the carrying capacity is indeed limited. If he didn't set a threshold, Lan Fang's broken place would soon be flattened by the influx of people.
When the time comes, the experience of tourists is not good, right?
And today, Gu Kun has taken an important step to change that.
......
After grasping the rhythm of the conversation, Gu Kun quickly glanced around, looked around at the onlookers, and found that many foreign tourism tycoons had already gathered around to pay attention to the conversation between him and Yamazaki.
Gu Kun also threw out the final detailed measures: "Starting this year, we will add a juxtaposition of two choices to the item of 'frozen fixed deposits of more than 50,000 yuan' in the entry property review of people from any Asian friendly countries, so that any one of them can be approved."
This alternative condition is to be a real-name authenticated user of a new e-commerce payment tool 'Alipay'. Anyone who has money saved in this payment tool and provides e-commerce and online shopping payment support for other civilians can be equivalent to having real estate and a fixed frozen deposit of more than 50,000 yuan, and can sign without additional financial review.
In addition, by extension, any person in charge of any financial institution and its branches in Asian countries, whether it is a branch president, branch manager, deputy or key business manager of any bank. Or any executive of an insurance company, the head of a credit card commercial credit institution, we can omit the additional property examination, as long as other parties comply with the requirements, we can allow fast entry, or on-the-ground processing.
Of course, for the discount of 'Alipay' users, we are currently only tentatively only two years, after all, this is a new business, and traditional financial institutions are mature products that have existed for many years.
For new things, we have confidence in the vision of its early users, and feel that these people will become people in the future, so we are willing to give them convenience, if the real-name authentication users who come back after 2003 may be tightened in the future, such as not only users, but also have to save money in it, or have a credit score or something. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.
Gu Kun's words were very skillful, he didn't directly praise the Alipay that Xiao Xiao pushed half a year ago, when Boss Bao of Zhonglian Games and Ma Feng of Ahri had a secret conversation with him, because then it would be too obvious to support a new payment tool.
However, while Gu Kun gave Alipay's early users distinguished privileges, he also gave discounts to all financial institution executives, including insurance and commercial credit, and some specific VIPs, which was not so conspicuous.
In other words, those who have an Amex Centurion Black Gold Credit Card, in fact, it is not equivalent to a global visa-free, you want to go to any country, the people of the Amex Credit Card Company will help you get it.
Gu Kun's exemption for early Alipay users is equivalent to treating you as having an Amex card - not a black gold card, it may just be an Amex card with a relatively low VIP level.
There's nothing wrong with that.
As for Gu Kun's saying that he wants to set a timeline limit, that's no problem.
It's like going to open a Taobao store in 03 years in history, and it has been persevering, which one in the future is not worth at least hundreds of millions?
Users who used QQ before 01 years, then there was a six-digit number, and those who came after N years, non-early users, why should they enjoy the same noble treatment as the users who had the same good vision as the "venture capitalists"?
Even reading a book on the Internet, it's much easier to get a high-V account in 04, and the treatment is good, which is the same everywhere you go.
It is only natural that early users of any Internet product should enjoy more privilege than those who are fattened and wait-and-see. Even an online reader named "Malaysia's Scumbag" can reward a helmsman for the early works of a certain street writer named XX Pifu at the earliest, so when a certain puffer writes a book with a Nanyang theme, even if it is an empty country, he must give preferential treatment to the Malays.
After people become popular, even if it is a silver alliance, although it is more valuable, it is also very moving, but this is different from the nature of early venture capital, of course, the writer will also add more than 30 more than he says, this is unambiguous, and the respect of the first silver alliance will definitely be more noble than the silver alliance that will appear after the future is more popular.
Just as the $500,000 that Peter Thiel gave to Zuckerberg can turn into billions of dollars, later investors who spend 50 million may not be able to exchange more shares than Peter Beal's 500,000 for shares. But it's certainly more dignified than the small bulk stock dogs that followed the IPO.
Zigong asked the government. Zi said: "Enough food, foot soldiers, and the trust of the people." Zigong said: "I have to go, which of the three is first?" said: "Go to the army." Zigong said: "I must go as a last resort." Which of the two comes first?" he said, "Go eat." Since ancient times, there have been deaths, and the people have no faith and cannot stand. ”
If he comes early, Gu Kun will be rewarded, even if the other party is just the owner of a small Internet café and has never seen much of the world, but as long as he opens Alipay before the end of 2002, opens the service of pre-remittance and deposit money in the account, and provides services to help others buy game point cards, Gu Kun will allow him to travel to Lanzhou without a visa, and regard him as a noble existence as a user of an Amex credit card.
Giving dividends and dignity to early users and early investors is an important part of the modern credit system.
Mr. Yamazaki still looked confused: "I'm sorry, I didn't understand, mainly because I haven't heard of the Alipay you just mentioned, what is that?"
Gu Kun: "It is an e-commerce prepayment tool led by our Lanfang Bank, funded by Lanfang Bank, and set up branches and subsidiaries in various countries. A new thing that has just been born this summer.
Of course, at present, there are only down-line partners in China and Huaxia, but in the future, we will develop to other countries, any country can join, if they want to build their own network electronic credit payment system, we will also recognize and give preferential treatment. ”
Gu Kun's words were not leaky, and he couldn't see even the slightest bias and preferential treatment.
