Chapter 253: Fart
Tang Miaomiao was naturally very happy when she saw Zhang Chen, but there were many people, and Su Zhuorui was eyeing the side, so the two of them naturally couldn't do anything.
After a while, Tang Miaomiao's father greeted her from a distance: "Miao Miao, come and see your Uncle Hou." ”
Tang Miaomiao was helpless, so she had to talk to Zhang Chen and Su Zhuorui, glanced at Zhang Chen reluctantly, and walked towards her father.
Su Zhuorui saw that Zhang Chen was still staring at Tang Miaomiao's back, and said angrily: "Don't look at it, be careful that you can't pull it out in your eyes." You two are so hot, do you really take everyone else for a fool?"
Zhang Chen didn't look at her: "Sister Su, have you been single for a long time, and everyone looks like an adulterer? Don't be psychologically unbalanced, look at that Ouyang Yu just now, I think he is very interesting to you, do you need me to create some opportunities for you?"
Su Zhuorui gritted her teeth and said, "No need, it's better to take care of yourself, don't touch the wrong door tonight." ”
was chatting, and Tang Miaomiao helplessly followed her father and walked towards the two, slapping the two of them at each other.
Su Zhuorui changed her face to a smile: "Hello Uncle Tang, I wanted to go over to say hello just now, but seeing that there were too many people around you, I didn't go over." ”
Tang Liansong smiled and said, "Xiao Su, don't be so polite, why are you here today?"
Su Zhuorui had already made a confession with Zhang Chen, and Tang Miaomiao had also told the two of them just now, so Su Zhuorui said without changing his face: "This is my cousin Zhang Chen, I came with him, and he is now the director of Salomon Brothers. ”
Tang Liansong was a little surprised, but after all, he was well-informed, and said with a smile: "Salomon Brothers, the investment bank on Wall Street, is now mainly engaged in bond business?"
Zhang Chen didn't expect that Tang Liansong also knew about Brother Solomon, and he admired it a little in his heart.
In the era when there was no Internet, domestic officials could know about the Solomon brothers, they must have seen it from various sources.
What's more, Tang Liansong also knows that Salomon Brothers is now mainly engaged in bond business, which proves that Tang Liansong is not the kind of administrative official with a fat brain, and he still has real materials.
Facing the future father-in-law, Zhang Chen didn't dare to hold it up, and greeted respectfully: "Hello Uncle Tang, I'm Zhang Chen, you are right, it is this Solomon brothers." ”
Tang Liansong smiled in surprise: "It's really not simple, Zhang Chen, you shouldn't be less than twenty, right?"
Zhang Chen hesitated for a moment and nodded.
Su Zhuorui glanced at Zhang Chen, and said in her heart, what's more, if you know that this kid has deceived your girl before he is eighteen, see if you can still laugh?
When they met for the first time, on this occasion, Tang Liansong didn't show too much curiosity, but just patted Zhang Chen on the shoulder: "It's not simple, it's really not simple." ”
Zhang Chen's smiling face was sour, and Tang Miaomiao couldn't help but laugh when he watched it beside him.
Zhang Chen took the initiative to say: "Uncle Tang came to the United States this time for the anti-dumping investigation of the Huaxia household appliance industry by the US Congress?"
Tang Liansong was a little surprised by Zhang Chen's question, but still nodded: "Yes, recently, Feinstein believes that our country's household appliances exported to the United States, especially color TVs, are suspected of dumping, so he submitted a proposal to the US Congress, asking Congress to impose high anti-dumping duties on our household appliances. I can ignore the companies in other places, but I can't ignore several home appliance companies in Guangdong, so I took a team to the United States to investigate and see if I can solve this problem. ”
Zhang Chen was curious: "Then Uncle Tang must have a complete plan?"
Tang Liansong laughed twice and didn't say anything more.
You little kid, can you really solve the problem? Tell you all this, it's just for the sake of Salomon Brothers' face.
It happened that someone was looking for Tang Liansong again, Tang Liansong smiled and turned to leave.
Su Zhuorui said to Tang Miaomiao with a face: "Your father is so handsome, every time I see your father, I want to be your stepmother." ”
Tang Miaomiao's expression was free, "My dad is old, you are too disadvantaged to marry, if you really want to be a child, you will be a dowry maid when I marry in the future." ”
Su Zhuorui snorted and glanced at Zhang Chen secretly.
When Zhang Chen heard this, his heart also jumped a few times.
Tang Miaomiao was just used to fighting with Su Zhuoyuan, so she didn't think about it so much at all.
The United States imposed anti-dumping duties on China's exports several times, and until 20 years later, there were still disputes between China and the United States over the dumping of China's products.
However, Zhang Chen still has an impression of the anti-dumping of color televisions, and many TV manufacturers do not know what the anti-dumping investigation and prosecution is all about, so they did not send anyone to the United States to respond to the lawsuit, and as a result, the companies that did not respond to the lawsuit were imposed punitive tariffs of more than 70%. The lowest tax rate is 3%, and the highest seems to have a tax rate of more than 20%.
The 70% punitive tariff, which means that companies receiving such penalties are completely closed from entering the U.S. market.
In Guangdong Province, it seems that many household appliance companies have been punished with 70% anti-dumping duties.
"Mr. Tang, how did your father talk with the American side this time?" Zhang Chen asked Tang Miaomiao.
Tang Miaomiao shook her head: "It doesn't seem to be good, in addition to going through the embassy, he also found Diana Feinstein through personal connections, but it seems that no one has seen him." ”
Zhang Chen nodded thoughtfully and pulled Tang Miaomiao, "Teacher Tang, you come with me." ”
Tang Miaomiao was puzzled, but saw Zhang Chen walking towards Tang Liansong.
Tang Miaomiao hurriedly grabbed Zhang Chen: "Why are you going?"
Zhang Chen said in a low voice: "I want to ask your father about anti-dumping and see if he can help." ”
Tang Miaomiao complained in a low voice: "Are you stupid? ”
Zhang Chen said with a smile: "I finally have the opportunity to brush my favorability in front of my father-in-law, of course I have to seize it." After that, he secretly took Tang Miaomiao's hand, "If I help your father in this matter, if it is exposed in the future, the resistance of the two of us can be smaller." ”
Tang Miaomiao's face was red, and a trace of sweetness swelled in her heart, and she said thinly: "Then how do you want to help?"
Zhang Chen smiled, "I have to talk to your father first and understand the situation clearly." ”
Tang Miaomiao had no choice but to follow Zhang Chen to her father.
Tang Liansong was frowning and chatting with a handsome young man who spoke Chinese, and Zhang Chen listened quietly to the side for a while.
"Uncle Tang, responding to a lawsuit in the United States, the lawyer's fees are very expensive, and there should not be many companies in Huaxia that can afford this money. Moreover, with all due respect, now that China is implementing the export tax rebate policy, these enterprises are taking financial subsidies from the Chinese government on the one hand, and exporting to the United States at low prices on the other hand, which is actually dumping with the support of the government, and the possibility of winning this lawsuit is very low. ”
"Uncle Tang, our two families are also world friends, and now Miao Miao is also in the United States, so I naturally won't ignore this matter. After all, our Hua family has a certain influence among the Chinese in San Francisco, and Diana Feinstein has been the mayor of San Francisco for more than ten years, and she is also old with her father, so we are still sure to persuade her to make certain concessions. Of course, the country must also be mentally prepared to a certain extent, even if it is a private settlement, the 20% punitive tariff will not be able to escape. But at least millions of dollars in attorney fees have been saved, you say?"
"Fart!" Zhang Chen said disdainfully on the side.
