Chapter 38: The Spirit of Spring
Feng Jianxiong's policy is really not easy for a layman to understand if he lacks a little tax and legal knowledge.
To explain it in human terms, it looks something like this:
Chinese people have always felt that "it is only 70 years to buy a house in China, and it is a freehold property abroad, so it is very cool abroad".
But in fact, the reason why domestic houses have the early definition of "70-year property rights for residential buildings and 40-year property rights for commercial real estate" is entirely because houses in countries such as Mi and Fuso are also subject to taxes.
The average home receives 1.5% of its current valuation for a year, and a shop receives 3% for a year – so 1.5% multiplied by 70 years is 105%, and 3% multiplied by 40 is 120% – almost the equivalent of buying again.
The first 70 and 40 years in China were determined on the basis of the legal basis of this international practice.
In a word, in countries with "freehold property rights", (including China's Xiangjiang area), holding your own house still has to pay money every year, which is not as good as some mentally handicapped readers say.
Moreover, the amount of money paid each year is not what the transaction price was when you bought the house, and you will always pay tax at 1.5% of the transaction price in the future.
Instead, it is necessary to re-evaluate the floating valuation according to the area according to the average transaction price of the surrounding properties of similar locations, similar structures and similar types in the current year, and pay tax at 1.5% of this floating valuation.
This leads to a problem: if a poor person in a city buys an old house in his early years, and when he buys it cheaply, he can hold it for a small amount of property tax every year. But if a large group of speculators came to him later, he would have sold his neighbor's house very high.
Then, the poor man who bought a house cheaply in the first place will also be affected, and maybe the annual property tax will skyrocket many times. If he can't pay the tax, he will be forced to sell the house in the block and buy or rent one again in a cheaper place.
In fact, in developed countries, this trick is a good way to drive away nail households - so don't say "the wind can get in, the rain can get in, the king's army can't go" or "how good a foreign country is, there are no forced demolitions".
Foreign countries do not need to be demolished, because the property tax on holding houses skyrockets every year, which is enough to use economic means to drive away the poor people with broken cash flow.
Every time a year is nailed, it is possible to pay a large ongoing cash cost.
The example of the city of Vancouver cited by Feng Jianxiong in his defense is a very ingenious case of driving people out.
As we all know, since the Iron Lady fell in the capital in 84, a large number of wealthy people in Xiangjiang were afraid of being liquidated in the future and fled to Vancouver, so Vancouver is the country with the best atmosphere for Chinese immigrants in Canada (there are hundreds of thousands of rich people in Xiangjiang as the base).
In recent years, Vancouver has taken advantage of this to further attract more Chinese immigrants to solve the city's urban problems.
Here's how it works:
Houses in downtown Vancouver were originally very cheap, so there were many white poor nail households who built their own squandering bungalows in their early years. It is not easy for the government to build elevated highways, and it is not easy for developers to requisition land if they want to push bungalows to build high-rise buildings.
Because of the three views of the rich white as mentioned earlier: because of the problem of public security and the proliferation of blacks in North America, white people feel that the more convenient the transportation, the lower the price of the house. The more inaccessible and inconvenient the poor are by public transport, the more expensive the housing is.
In the same way, whites also feel that high-rise buildings are not valuable, and small western-style buildings are more valuable.
As a result, in a white-only society, the taller the houses in the city center, the cheaper the prices. The lower the cost of the poor nail households to continue to take root, and the more they cannot drive away.
The more easily elevated highways, subways, and other public transportation are built, the more housing prices in this area will fall, and the cost of owning a house for the poor will further fall...... In the end, the vicious circle is that the poor gather more and more, unable to drive out, lack of planning for houses, and traffic congestion......
But the Chinese are coming, and they are simply the saviors of Vancouver.
Because the values of the Chinese in judging the quality of the house are just the opposite of the white people.
The Chinese feel that the more convenient the transportation and the more downtown the house, the more expensive it should be sold.
Moreover, the Chinese actually think that skyscrapers with glass curtain walls should be more expensive per unit area.
As soon as there are many Chinese immigrants with this kind of value, housing prices in downtown Vancouver have exploded year after year, multiplying.
The white poor who have been treating the city center as a slum for decades have finally discovered that they can't afford to live in the city center because the Chinese are here.
The tide of white backward productivity workers was evicted from their low houses in the city center, and their ancestral homes were sold and moved to plots of land that the Chinese found worthless. Then the Chinese developers shoveled these bungalows, built high-rise buildings, built elevated buildings, and the housing prices rose again, and then forced out the poor bungalows in the surrounding blocks with heavy taxes......
Vancouver's urban flattening and congestion have been governed under the guidance of this road.
This is a city in Los Angeles that is a target city for industrial relocation. The structure of the problem is very similar to that of Los Angeles.
Mayor Luo's strategies can actually be used as a reference by Schwarzenegger.
In fact, the Los Angeles government has begun to discuss the implementation plan of this land enclosure cycle with Chinese developers over the years, but Los Angeles is too large and has too many people, and the problem is complicated, so the implementation is so delayed.
Before Feng Jianxiong's sudden death in 2020, this routine had actually been incorporated into the process of being adopted by the Los Angeles City Government.
……
Feng Jianxiong's words in the debate competition cannot, of course, be so "human-speaking".
His wording was much more professional, and it was only aimed at the judges, who were high-level intellectuals.
I believe that the original text is still spoken, and the officials will not be able to understand it quickly.
However, the political and economic logic behind this is exactly the same.
After saying this, finally even the questioner Chen Wenqian herself was stupid.
What kind of strength is this? How can the governor of the United States and the government think tank solve the problem that the actual public relations of the country has not been able to solve for so many years, and it sounds like it can be solved by a university student casually pointing out the country?
Although he knew that Feng Jianxiong was ruling the country with a cannon of mouth, he could say it in such detail, with such strict analogies, side references, and quotations......
On the left, the experience of NRW governance, on the right, the secretary of the mayor of Vancouver Rowe, and at every turn say how Governor Arnaud has been, but you don't know......
It looks like a lot of power.
It seems that Governor Arnold and Mayor Luo are both old friends and acquaintances of Feng Jianxiong, and they often "talk and laugh with Confucianism, and there is no vain correspondence".
Chen Wenqian's ability to accumulate so many problems today is due to the experience she has accumulated from many years in politics and as a parliamentary troll.
However, he was compared to a college student who had no hair on his mouth and had never worked seriously for a day!
The other four judges, who have never been in politics, are even more shocked.
"Genius!
"Even if I know that he made up what he said, even if his words do not guide the specific administration. But I think Governor Schwarzenegger should ask him to be a government spokesperson. Even if it is used to refute in the face of questions from the media from all walks of life and political opponents, it is definitely worth the money!"
"This kind of person should go to the middle of the Xuan department! this mouth...... Talent!"
"I should go directly to be the spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs!"
"It is indeed qualified to be able to win the propaganda minister of Wanwan Green Shadow in specific policy discussions, and go to the Central X Department or the Outer J Department!"
Feng Jianxiong's teenage teammates were even more shocked, even more shocked than the judges.
Because the judges will still feel that "the other party may be too prepared before the game, and they will make up for it".
But Yu Meiqin Tian Haimo knew exactly what Feng Jianxiong had said in the past few days before the game, eating and living with them every day, and learning eloquence.
It can be said that before Yang Weiwei came up with the final killer weapon, the problems that the two sides might encounter and the prepared defense were still within the scope of the preview of the four members of the Jinling Division Brigade.
However, Yang Weiwei's last question is already out of line. This can also be seen from the inadequacy of Tian Haimo and Yu Meiqin's strength at the beginning.
As for Chen Wenqian's two questions, Tian Haimo and Yu Meiqin were already listening to the book that day, and they knew that they were unprepared and would definitely not be able to answer.
And Feng Jianxiong replied, then there is only one possibility.
He didn't need to prepare at all, he relied on his terrifying political opinions and social experience, and easily thought of how to solve this problem.
It's scary.
The former is equivalent to three years of hard study, and the college entrance examination is the first in the school.
And Feng Jianxiong is like this, which is equivalent to playing games for three years, and his classmates have never seen him study, but he still takes the first place in the school in the naked exam.
The only calm person in the audience may be the host Sa Beining.
can still know what he should do in such a dramatic scene, which shows that this guy's host professionalism can also be dropped. (Please pronounce this sentence in the tone of "Peking University can also drop".) )
"Now, I would like to ask the jury to leave the discussion for the time being. Let's take a break and wait for the verdict!"
With Sa Beining's words, everyone was finally pulled back.
The judges left the table to discuss, but the applause in the audience did not decrease slightly.
Five minutes later, Professor Zhang of Peking University, as a representative, took the results of the jury's discussion, folded a piece of paper, and handed it to Sa Beining.
Sa Beining solemnly unfolded it and read out: "Now I announce that the best debater in this field is: the second debate of the positive side, Feng Jianxiong!"
Undoubtedly, this reading was immediately interrupted because of applause.
Sa Beining could only silently count the seconds in his heart, and waited for 10 seconds before continuing: "The result of the jury discussion in this game is: 4 to 1, the Zhengfang Jinling Normal University team won! Let's congratulate them on entering the finals!"
From Tian Haimo to Yu Meiqin, the moment they heard this result, they all felt trembling.
It seems that after eating the food in "The Spirit of Spring", it is almost a small universe surging out of clothes.
