Today, Finance Minister Liu Zhongli stressed in an interview with this reporter that the tax reform will not increase the burden on enterprises and the masses. He said that after the announcement of several new tax systems to be implemented next year, there are some rumors in society that the tax reform will increase the tax burden on enterprises and may cause prices to rise, and that there is a situation in some places where high-end consumer goods are selling well......

The news broadcast of '93, as it sounded a little amiable in Sioux City. Of course, it is not as kind as the news of the 80s and 70s, but the taste of high is indeed very light, and the use of language is also very plain, and the oral language is not in the minority.

This probably varies depending on the audience. Su Cheng held a teacup in his hand, thinking casually.

According to the model of news broadcasting, the end of domestic news is the time for foreign news.

Sioux City doesn't care about what's on TV for a while, but the others think it's a good opportunity.

He Haitao took advantage of a gap and interjected with a smile: "The tax reform reflects the superiority of socialism. Japan has been discussing consumption tax for several years, but it has not been done so far. We have taken the lead in completing the consumption tax reform, which can serve as a good example for Asian countries. ”

Zhou Lao is on the side, and He Haitao talks about problems, so he naturally has to build from a high position.

Tax reform is the highlight of this year's reform of the State Council. The taxes such as value-added tax, consumption tax, business tax, enterprise income tax and land value-added tax, which are familiar to future generations, have all become regular and regular taxes since this year.

At the same time, the product tax, salt tax, special consumption tax, state-owned enterprise income tax, state-owned enterprise adjustment tax, collective enterprise income tax, and private enterprise income tax are about to be swept into the old paper pile of history. In particular, the "salt tax" was born soaked with snow-white salt grains. Absorbs bright red blood and grows. Its quiet departure is enough to write a few reverial words to remember.

Most of the leaders here are leaders of state-owned enterprises, and the profit tax of state-owned enterprises has also been quickly brought out.

Zhou Lao nodded with a smile as usual, and did not express his opinion. Even so, it was very exciting.

A news broadcast is almost turning into a sports meeting, and everyone can't wait to say a few words. No matter how calm the leader is, sitting at the same table with Zhou Lao at this time, he will inevitably have some ideas - if he can say a word. It would be nice for people to remember their words.

There was only Sioux City, half waiting for the news, half too lazy to scramble.

From the perspective of several people, it can be described as sitting.

Zhang Changting even had a malicious thought: What are you being reserved about at this time. I don't know how to seize the opportunity......

His rank and relationship circle, but he didn't know that Su Cheng had been an "expert on international issues" for Zhou Lao for a long time.

A group of people scrambled to take over the chat, and it was not until the end of the domestic news line that they stopped.

In everyone's opinion, the next international news is to the extent that the TV can be turned off. Many people are at home, and they only look at the domestic part, and there are a few people sitting at the table. Naturally, he turned around and looked like he was concentrating on drinking tea and listening to the teachings. Although Zhou Lao didn't say a word.

At this time, Su Cheng fiddled with the teacup with his hand. Facing Zhang Changting, he said: "Mr. Zhang, has Daqing Oilfield evaluated the Russian government's oil policy? ”

Evaluate the word in China in the 90s. It is still a relatively "foreign" word, and the Daqing Oilfield has obviously not been imported yet, and Zhang Changting's face was crooked. "I have been in Russia for more than a month, and I dare not say that I am very familiar with the situation in Russia, but I still have a certain understanding, and we will definitely find a way to sign the agreement," he said. ”

"Yukos is also a cunning wolf, and as far as Dahua understands it, the Russian government's oil policy is unlikely to allow foreign companies to have too high a percentage of shares and management rights. When Mr. Zhang signed the agreement, don't exceed the bottom line he set. "Sioux City has dug a little deeper into the trap that has been made. Now that Zhou Lao is on the side, it's not good to dig a pit, I'm sorry for this beautiful trap.

Zhang Changting did not forget the closed doors he got in Moscow, but he felt that he had already found some ways, so he said very much, saying: "Things are man-made, what Dahua can't do, not necessarily others can't do." ”

"That's for the best. Sioux turned slightly, facing the TV.

Zhang Changting thought he had refuted him, and smiled secretly: What a young man. In the future, it's not like you can say whatever you want.

Glancing at Sioux City, he picked up his teacup. In the conversation just now, he had the upper hand and consciously showed a small face.

However, the small face he revealed, which only lasted for two seconds of normal expression, was replaced by a look of surprise.

Because in the 25-inch big TV, a few big words are being broadcast: Russia's new energy policy.

The headline of the news is in dark blue round font, and it looks friendly.

The solemn news anchor said in a straight voice: "Earlier today, Russian parliamentarians proposed a new energy bill, which attracted the attention of the world

It demanded that a minimum price be set for oil, and that any Russian oil company should only sell a maximum of 50% of its shares to foreign companies, and that Russia must have more than 51% of the shares and management rights of Russian oil pipelines, and that foreign companies are not allowed to hold more than 49% of the shares through indirect shareholding...... It is reported that more than half of the Russian parliamentarians have publicly expressed their support for the bill, and the following is a detailed report from our station......

In an instant, the corners of Zhang Changting's mouth were deflated, and his momentum disappeared in an instant.

The detailed report that followed inevitably mentioned the opinion of Yukos and many more Russian parliamentarians. It can be seen that most Russians are very excited. Limit the expansion of foreign oil companies, protect Russia's own resources, and raise the price of oil...... Pick any reason, it's enough for these parliamentarians to write a lot.

In the news, the names of the Anda Line and Daqing Petroleum were omitted. Nevertheless, who in this room does not know that Yukos is the Russian investor of the Ontario line?

Even if there are one or two who have an unclear memory, they should be reminded by Su Cheng's words just now.

Zhang Changting's words were especially in his ears, and Russia's policy gave him a hard slap. Anyone who knows the state of the two countries. It's like watching a drama.

It's like a designed routine. Let Zhang Changting say a big word, and then cut it down with a knife, cutting off all the untrue parts.

Zhang Changting's face turned red, as if he had been skinned.

In front of Zhou Lao, Su Cheng didn't have the idea of chasing after him, but chased after him fiercely: "Mr. Zhang, the bottom line you set in the afternoon will not be less than 50% of the equity and management rights of the oil pipeline, right?"

"You already knew?" Zhang Changting's eyes were bloodshot. But he didn't expect that the whole thing was promoted by Sioux City.

"What does it matter if I know it? The bottom line is yours. Russia's policy is set by the Russians. ”

Zhang Changting swallowed a mouthful of saliva and forced himself to say: "It's man-made...... There are policies above, and there are countermeasures below......"

Judging from this sentence, he was also about to be confused. If you say this in front of Old Zhou, what is the good impression. It's going to be all gone.

Sioux City turned to the general manager of the oil company and asked, "You have also seen the note." Excuse me, is it time to make the current situation public? ”

If the bottom line written by Zhang Changting is higher than the requirements of Russian policy, it means that there is no negotiation value, not only can it be made public, but it can also be announced that the Ontario line is out.

And so it goes. Zhang Changting has no room for mediation. He ignored Zhou Lao and hurriedly said: "The bottom line is the top secret of our negotiations, and we can't make it public just because the Russians say it." ”

It's normal to listen to this statement independently. If you associate it before and after, there is a problem.

The general manager pretended to be confused, and did not say anything.

Lin Yonggui secretly laughed twice, and said with a serious appearance: "Russian legislation prohibits other countries from owning more than 49% of the shares and rights of oil pipelines. To be honest, Mr. Zhang's bottom line is lower than this. There's nothing to compare with. Now, the Russians have closed the door to negotiations, not to mention whether Yukos has the strength to challenge the Russian government, and even if it did, they would not do it. ”

According to the practice of Western countries, the laws passed by the current parliament have the strongest legal effect, and not only the national judiciary will pay attention to it, but also the parliamentarians will pay careful attention to the bills they vote for. Therefore, even if Yukos wants to do something illegal, it will wait for the dissolution of this parliament before it does it. The Russian Federation has been established for a very short time, but it has learned from the West, and even if the government's control changes, it will become stronger and stronger.

Zhang Changting is not a person who can speak well, and he is so emotional that he can't speak.

After waiting for half a minute, Su Cheng coughed, stood up, and said: "Everyone, the current situation, everyone has also seen that the Ontario line obviously lacks the possibility of implementation, it is impossible for Chinese enterprises to obtain more than 50% of the equity, and the conditions of the Ontario line are obviously lagging behind the China-Kazakhstan line...... I ask for priority approval and construction of the China-Kazakhstan line. ”

Zhang Changting was in a hurry, and took the case, saying: "The Russian parliament has not approved this bill, so it is not a law, and there is something to be done." ”

"You mean that if the Russian government approves this bill, it will agree to give priority to the approval and construction of the China-Kazakhstan line?" Su Cheng looked at Zhang Changting with a smile.

If you fall into a trap once, you can't just climb out and jump in again. Zhang Changting's lips trembled, and he said, "I don't have the right to agree or disagree." It was also said in the news that the bill had not yet passed. ”

"I think so. Zhou Lao spoke in a slow tone.

Zhang Changting was stunned for a moment, his face turned from red to blue, and he said impatiently: "What...... How can it be?"

"If the Russian side has no intention, can the Ontario line be completed?" Zhou Lao asked rhetorically.

Zhang Changting was very reluctant, but said obediently: "No." ”

"Then let's see if the Russian bill passes. Zhou Lao wiped his mouth with a handkerchief and left his seat.

A group of people all stood up and put on a farewell posture.
