389 [New Concept Essay Contest]

After Xifeng's listing, Song Weiyang did not leave Hong Kong for the time being, because the equity exchange with Bank of China Investment was almost negotiated.

The faster than expected is mainly because Wall Street's valuation of Google has been rising, and if it continues to drag on, BOC Investment will have to pay a higher price.

Of the four companies that Song Weiyang wanted to participate in, two of the equity replacement plans were returned, and there was no other explanation, but the higher authorities did not agree. The final result is as follows: Song Weiyang obtained 180 million domestic shares of Huaneng Power held by Bank of China Investment at the cost of 5% equity of Golden Bull Capital, and obtained 10% of Phoenix Satellite TV held by Bank of China Investment.

In the short term, Song Weiyang did not suffer a loss, and even made a small profit. The reason why Bank of China Investment is so generous is that it has taken a fancy to Shenzhou Technology, which is making money every day, and Google, which is growing rapidly, and the two sides are willing to fight and suffer, and they look at each other correctly.

Song Weiyang intends to hold the shares of Huaneng Power for a long time, and there is a lot of room for appreciation, and he can make a wave of A-share listing in at least two years.

As for Phoenix Satellite TV, it will also be listed soon, and it can be sold off for cash at that time, which has little long-term investment value.

If someone questions whether BOC Investment holds shares in Phoenix TV, they can check the composition of Phoenix TV's shareholders.

Many years after Phoenix Satellite TV was listed, Huaying International, as one of the "founders", still holds 8.25% of the equity. Huaying International is a wholly-owned subsidiary of a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bank of China Investment, which is equivalent to the grandson of Bank of China Investment, and Phoenix Satellite TV is equal to the great-grandson of Bank of China Investment.

So far, the equity composition of Taurus Capital is: Song Weiyang (73.75%), Citigroup China (5.9%), Bank of China Investment (5%), and others (15.35%).

To be honest, although Song Weiyang has no original sin of capital, he was praised as "the richest man in China" all of a sudden, and he is still a little weak-hearted, for fear of being fattened and killing pigs.

Bank of China Investment is the son of Bank of China, and after this wave of equity replacement, Song Weiyang can be regarded as a relative of Bank of China, and it will be more secure to bring ICBC in the future.

……

In mid-January, Song Weiyang returned to Shenghai.

Obviously, the school has been on vacation, but Lin Zhuoyun is not there, so she went to a middle school to be an invigilator.

It wasn't until the evening that Lin Zhuoyun returned home and said to Song Weiyang with a smile: "I got a job!"

"Work?" Song Weiyang was a little puzzled.

"Of course I have to work," Lin Zhuoyun said with a smile, "I still owe you tens of thousands of dollars for the money to buy a house, and I usually have to pay for my living expenses, how can I not find a job?"

Song Weiyang asked, "What kind of work?"

Lin Zhuoyun said: "Sprout magazine wants to expand its scale and recruit several editors at a time, and I have successfully applied for the job. Today is the final of the first New Concept Essay Contest, and the examination room is borrowed from a middle school classroom, and I was temporarily arrested to an examination room to be invigilated. ”

"New Concept Essay Contest?" Song Weiyang almost squirted the tea in his mouth.

Lin Zhuoyun said: "Yes, you don't know yet, right? This essay contest is jointly organized by seven universities and "Sprout" magazine, and we also participate in Fudan. Students who won the first prize can be admitted to seven universities, Peking University, Fudan University, Nankai University, and Nanjing University...... These schools are willing to admit winners. ”

Song Weiyang asked, "What is the topic of the final?"

Lin Zhuoyun said: "A performance art. The content is not fixed and is decided by the invigilator. The invigilator in the next exam room took a bite of the apple and put it on the table. In our examination room, it was also discussed before the exam, and I wore my coat backwards and asked those contestants to write essays on this topic. ”

Song Weiyang said: "You won't still be in charge of grading, right?"

Lin Zhuoyun said: "I don't have that qualification yet, the teacher is either a well-known writer or a professor of the Chinese department of a famous university, and the standard of this competition is very high." ”

Lin Zhuoyun is very satisfied with her new job, and as an editor of a literary magazine, she reads a lot of young people's articles every day. Most of the manuscripts are terrible and unsightly, but there are a few that are eye-catching and more interesting to read than the works of well-known authors.

Two days later, Lin Zhuoyun rushed back and said: "There is a student who is so good, he didn't receive the notice of the rematch and missed the finals." Our editor-in-chief arranged a make-up exam for him, and he also personally supervised the exam, and the topic was 'a performance art'. The editor-in-chief took out a tissue and threw it in the cup where he was drinking. And guess what? That student actually wrote an article on human nature on the spot with the title of "A Peep at People in a Cup", and the editor-in-chief praised him when he returned to the magazine, thinking that he was a young literary genius!"

"Well, it's really rare for a high school student to write an article like that. Song Weiyang said.

Han Shao has already come out, will the fourth master who jumped Yao Ming's knee be far away?

It's a pity that one plagiarism was hammered, and the other was questioned as a ghostwriter many years later.

Song Weiyang also read "Triple Gate", he was already in his twenties at the time, and he was not interested in this kind of high school student, so he only turned a dozen pages casually and fell asleep. Clumsily imitating Qian Zhongshu's style, the words used in the writing are too deliberate, and he is worried about giving new words, which is completely in line with the characteristics of a talented second-year teenager, and it was definitely written by Han Shao himself.

Brother Elbow probably hasn't read it carefully, so he will insist that "Triple Gate" is ghostwritten by Han's father. If Daddy Han, who is dozens of years old, can write "Triple Gate", his mentality is really young, and he will always be eighteen years old.

Lin Zhuoyun hugged a large stack of "Sprout" magazine, and said with a sense of matter: "Do a line of love, since I am an editor, I want to read all of last year's "Sprouts"!"

Song Weiyang asked, "What level of editor are you?"

"Preliminary review editors," Lin Zhuoyun said, "I will be responsible for the newly received manuscripts, eliminate the ones that are too bad, and hand over those above the level to the senior editors." ”

Song Weiyang laughed: "Hard work!"

Lin Zhuoyun said: "Coolies are coolies, and when I first joined, I will become a senior editor in the future." ”

Song Weiyang said: "If you like this industry, I will set up a magazine for you." ”

"Don't, I'm going to work my own," Lin Zhuoyun pushed Song Weiyang away, opened a copy of "Sprout" and said, "Don't bother me these days, I'm going to read through last year's magazine." ”

"Then read slowly. "Song Weiyang asked Doudou to play "Warcraft" online.

I was just beaten by Doudou for a game, and suddenly my phone rang. Song Weiyang heard the fairy sound, coughed: "You play by yourself, uncle still has business." I made a mistake just now, and you won't be able to beat me next time. ”

"Cut!" Doudou gave a disdainful look.

"Xiao Song, it's me. Academician Ni's voice came from the phone.

Song Weiyang said: "Hello Academician Ni, I wish you a happy Spring Festival in advance." ”

"Then you have mentioned enough," Academician Ni said with a smile, "I have a proposal, and I hope you can sign it." ”

"What proposal?" asked Song Weiyang.

Academician Ni said: "I am not a member of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, and I have the responsibility and obligation to submit suggestions. After the 94 tax reform, our country will impose a 17% value-added tax on the high-tech industry, which is very unreasonable. Take Intel a few years ago, with a total annual turnover of $5.7 billion and a profit of about $1 billion, if the tax is 17%, Intel is basically no profit. This is still a large multinational company, and it is even more difficult for enterprises in our country, so the current tax ratio is unreasonable. ”

"So, you always propose that the government reduce taxes for high-tech industries?" Song Weiyang asked.

"It's been mentioning it for several years, and I'm not the only one who is mentioning it," Academician Ni said, "This year, the country is paying more and more attention to the development of high and new technology, and I think it's still very promising." Therefore, I invited a lot of people in the industry to sign jointly, Xiao Song, your Shenzhou technology is also a high-tech industry, it would be better if you could sign, everyone picked up firewood and the flame was high. ”

"No problem, I'll fly to the capital tomorrow to sign it. Song Weiyang said.

It was many people of insight, including Academician Ni, who appealed for many years that prompted the central government to issue the "No. 18 Document" in 2000. In the past, high-tech enterprises that were uniformly levied 17% value-added tax, software companies were reduced to 3%, and integrated circuit enterprises were reduced to 6%, which gave many related enterprises follow-up development momentum.

Song Weiyang returned to the study, opened a book casually and said, "I'm going to the capital tomorrow." ”

"When will you come back?" asked Lin Zhuoyun.

"It may be delayed for some time, but CCTV's program also invited me as a guest. Song Weiyang said.

Lin Zhuoyun said: "Then I'll wait for you to go back for the New Year." ”
