Chapter 116: The Misunderstanding of the Chinese People

Unlike the Chinese, in the eyes of foreigners, if they put forward a feasible proposal, they should have some benefits, especially now, when Fang Mingyuan is not a shareholder of Nokia Group, this point must not be ignored.

Some people may say: "Fang Mingyuan just put forward a simple proposal to change the shell, is there still a need to discuss how to reward him in such a formal way?"

It's like the story that has been going on for a long time, where an engineer draws a line on a machine that isn't working, then takes it apart, removes the two coils, and the machine is back to normal. The engineer asked for a reward of 1,000 dollars, but some people were of course not convinced, thinking that it was possible to charge such a high fee just by marking the line. And how did the engineer answer?

"It's not even worth a dollar to draw a line, but if you know where to draw this condition, it's worth nine hundred and ninety-nine dollars!" Although it is easy to change the shell, if no one comes to pierce this layer of paper, the Nokia Group does not know how long it will take to think of it. Therefore, the directors of Nokia's board of directors did not raise any objections to Aurella's proposal.

In the end, Nokia Group agreed that if the shell replacement has achieved a better response in the markets of Shijie countries, Nokia Group's new mobile phone case business will be handed over to Fang Mingyuan for procurement. In addition, Carrefour Group will give certain additional discounts when purchasing mobile phones!

Fang Mingyuan was overjoyed in his heart, this transaction did not seem to be high, but Fang Mingyuan knew that in the future, the mobile phone case market would also be extremely hot, and until ten years later, the mobile phone case market would still be able to make a stable profit. Although this amount of money is nothing for his net worth, it can bring a lot of employment opportunities to the country.

One of the topics in Zuihou is whether Nokia and Fangjia should cooperate to build factories in Huaxia.

Regarding this point, in fact, as early as half a year before Fang Mingyuan came to Finland, the Fang family had officially proposed it to the Nokia Group. However, Nokia's board of directors was very cautious about this issue, and until Fang Mingyuan arrived in Finland, no formal result was discussed.

Oscar also discussed this issue with Fang Mingyuan in the morning, and to Fang Mingyuan's surprise, the reason why Nokia Group was so difficult to make a decision was that Nokia Group had doubts about the seriousness and stability of China's tax policy.

As a well-known mobile phone manufacturer, Nokia Group is also quite popular in China, and many local governments have extended olive branches to Nokia Group, hoping that Nokia Group can set up factories to produce mobile phones locally. And the conditions for opening up are naturally extremely rich. Not only has it given the green light all the way to land approval, but it has also continued to reduce or exempt taxes and fees on the basis of a large number of national regulations. This made members of the Nokia Group's board of directors somewhat uneasy.

After all, for enterprises, they prefer to face a stable tax environment under the rule of law, rather than a tax environment that can be distorted at will. Because today the government of this country can give foreign companies low tax treatment, then tomorrow, it will also be able to charge you high taxes! Rather than this, it is better to have countries with stable taxes that can quantify future returns.

"Fang, the government of your country obviously does not realize that your country's huge market and a large number of cheap labor are the most concerned by the enterprises of various countries! As long as the benefits are enough, even if you collect more taxes, they will flock to you. And if you don't have enough safe income for the benefit of your country, your country is tax-free, and I'm afraid no one wants to go there!" Aurela also gave some examples to prove his point.

Fang Mingyuan deeply agrees with Aurela's conclusion. In his previous life, he had heard similar remarks. Some foreign economists have talked about such a phenomenon, according to their large number of statistics, in China, when the enterprise is in the preferential tax period, the tax burden is very low, but when the preferential period is over, the enterprise has to bear a lower tax burden. The reason for this is that these enterprises can transfer their income between high and low taxes through unreasonable pricing between affiliated enterprises. This just shows that the preferential tax policies of one time and one place are not the most important things for these foreign companies. Belonging to the best of nature, there is no and will not hinder their choice.

Huaxia's tax department, instead of working tax incentives, should invest more energy in improving its own work efficiency, reducing all kinds of unreasonable charges, and providing enterprises with more perfect and high-speed services. Local governments at all levels do not want to think about using tax treatment as a bargaining chip, but should formulate a correct investment promotion strategy and study the investment psychology of foreign enterprises, so as to attract investment more effectively. In addition, it is necessary to eliminate improper profit transfer between affiliated enterprises as much as possible. Otherwise, it will only make the appetite of these foreign companies more greedy.

In the end, the local government did not achieve much significant increase in tax revenue, except for solving the problem of employment for some people. On the contrary, it may be due to environmental pollution and other problems, resulting in more than worth the loss.

At the meeting, Fang Mingyuan emphatically expounded the investment promotion policy of Qinxi Province, the main of which is Fengyuan City.

He listed several advantages of investing in Qinxi Province.

First, Fengyuan City, Qinxi Province, as a transportation hub in the central and western regions of China, is very convenient for roads, aviation, and railways, and there is the existence of the Eurasian Railway, whether it is to the east to the sea, or to the west through Central Asia into Europe, or to Qinxi Province as the center, radiating the whole country of China is more convenient.

Second, in recent years, a large number of Hong Kong enterprises have settled in Qinxi Province, indicating that the local government's investment attraction work is still relatively in place.

Third, the southeast coastal area of China is where foreign enterprises gather, and the price of labor has been greatly improved compared with the beginning, and with the economic development of this area, the price of labor, as well as the various costs of enterprise operation, will definitely rise, and it may not take many years, many enterprises will face the problem of moving westward.

Fourth, Fengyuan City, Qinxi Province, is a city with concentrated university resources in China, and the number of colleges and universities is second only to Beijing and Shanghai, which can ensure that enterprises can recruit enough high-quality talents locally. And the same level of talents, in the southeast coastal areas, their salaries are fifty percent higher than that of Qinxi Province, or even more!

Fifth, in Qinxi Province, there are many factories in the electronics industry, with a large number of skilled workers, these people only need simple training, can fully meet the requirements of Nokia's production line, this alone, can save a lot of new worker training costs for enterprises. And there is no need to worry about not being able to recruit enough workers in a short period of time once the production capacity is expanded.

Sixth, Qinxi Province is the base camp of the Fang family's rise in China, and the Fang family still has a large number of industries in Qinxi Province. With the local government, the Fang family has an extremely good cooperative relationship and reputation. If the joint venture company between Nokia Group and Fangjia settled in Qinxi Province, then the care received in all aspects is also incomparable to other provinces.

The six suggestions put forward by Fang Mingyuan immediately aroused the interest of many directors in the board of directors of Nokia.

"Fellow directors, the advantages listed by Fang are real. And as far as I know, Fang hasn't said it all. Aurela smiled, "Now under Fang's name, there is also a railway line piloted by the Ministry of Huaxia Railway, which runs directly from his hometown to Fengyuan and connects to the Eurasian Land Bridge." And I also know that Fang has a very close personal friendship with Mr. Su Huandong, Minister of the Chinese Ministry of Railways, so I think that in this part of railway transportation, we will take advantage of a lot of advantages. Moreover, Fengyuan City, Qinxi Province, is now building a highway to the southeast coastal area, in which Fang also has a stake, and I think that by then, we will also have an advantage over other enterprises in the use of highway transportation! God, Fang, the industry under your name is too complicated, right?"

"Yoma, I think you have to say a little less, I also have a cooperative relationship with Japan's Sega Co., Ltd., which is one of the three major game console manufacturers in Japan, and their branch in Huaxia is located in Fengyuan City, and now hundreds of thousands of game console products are exported abroad every year! I think, from a certain point of view, this can also prove the investment environment of Fengyuan City, Qinxi Province!" Fang Mingyuan's data is of course slightly exaggerated. However, after the completion of the third phase of the expansion project of Deguang Electronics Factory at the end of the year, there is indeed no problem with this output.

The directors of the Nokia Group couldn't help but be even more excited. Compared to the Hong Kong companies that Fang Mingyuan just mentioned, Sega is more familiar to these directors. And Sega Co., Ltd., although it is not an industry with Nokia Group, but it belongs to the electronics industry, Sega Co., Ltd. can be landed in Fengyuan City, Qinxi Province, and successfully put into production, the production capacity is still so considerable, which also shows that the investment environment in Fengyuan City, Qinxi Province must be good, otherwise, with the Japanese for the cost of the matter, they will never be able to set up a branch in Fengyuan.

This undoubtedly added a heavy weight to Fang Mingyuan's invitation.

Orila looked at Fang Mingyuan, who was talking eloquently under the many questions of the directors, and she was also quite emotional. As for whether Fang Mingyuan can convince these directors, Aurela has not been worried from the beginning, after all, as early as a few years ago, Fang Mingyuan, who was still a high school student at the time, had already convinced himself who had always been considered by many directors on the board of directors to be stubborn!

Orila believes that the cooperation between Fangjia and Nokia Group will inevitably make Nokia Group reap rich fruits in the future!RO!~!
