Chapter 052: Match-fixing
Chapter 052 Fake Ball Wind BÅ
The door of the governor's reception room was closed, and Chen Dang held a low-key but high-end enough mobile phone, and whispered: "I'm not sure when the meeting will be over, well, okay, I'll help you contact you then." He hung up.
The phone is not his, but Governor Xiao. Governor Xiao was meeting with Wang Wenyuan, secretary of the Pengcheng Municipal Party Committee, and Mayor Lin Sen in the reception room, and it had been more than an hour, and there was no sign of the end, while Chen Dang had already stopped nine phone calls for Governor Xiao outside.
Since Governor Xiao personally ordered the cutting of a project in Wucheng and squeezed out money to leisurely meet the difficulties of the Pengcheng mining area, Wang Wenyuan and Lin Sen made a two-stop phone call for three days to report, and now it is said that the situation of the South No. 2 Mine has been basically resolved, so Secretary Wang and Mayor Lin personally rushed to the provincial capital to report in person.
"The newly promulgated Bankruptcy Law still has some breakthrough things compared with the old law, such as the introduction of enterprise reorganization procedures, the increase in the protection of the legitimate rights and interests of employees of bankrupt enterprises, the expansion of the scope of application of bankruptcy procedures, and the change of bankruptcy conditions to 'assets are insufficient to pay off all debts'...... These things, as a local leader who faces the enterprise directly in the front-line position, you must understand it thoroughly. Xiao Chen said, took a puff of cigarette, and the Blue King in his hand only had a cigarette butt, which he gently pressed into the ashtray and extinguished.
After a full 12-year legislative journey, the Bankruptcy Law was finally promulgated. Prior to this, Huaxia was still in the initial stage of market economy; Since then, it can be said that China's market economy has entered an intermediate stage.
The 23rd meeting in August passed the Enterprise Bankruptcy Law of the People's Republic of China (hereinafter referred to as the "Bankruptcy Law") by a high vote of 157 votes in favor, 2 against and 2 abstentions. The new law came into force on June 1, 2007.
"The deliberation and adoption of the new "Bankruptcy Law" is a sign that China's market economy has entered a new stage." Xiao Chen said softly: "Before this, Huaxia was still in the initial stage of market economy; Since then, it can be said that China's market economy has entered an intermediate stage. The process of drafting laws is also the process of the development and growth of China's market economy. The focus of controversy in the drafting process is also the difficulty encountered in the process of the growth of China's market economy. â
Wang Wenyuan nodded and said: "The new "Bankruptcy Law" has made great progress compared with the old law 20 years ago. In my opinion, the expansion of the scope of application of the law, the bankruptcy of state-owned enterprises, and the bankruptcy of financial institutions have attracted the most attention, and have become the essence of this law."
Xiao Chen nodded slightly: "The most intuitive progress is the scope of application of the law. The new Bankruptcy Law applies to all legal entities, including state-owned enterprises and corporate enterprises, foreign-funded enterprises, listed and unlisted companies, limited companies and joint-stock companies, and even financial institutions. This means that bankruptcy is no longer the 'patent' of state-owned enterprises, and all enterprises will be equally bound by the same 'fittest' law.
At the same time, the government has basically withdrawn from bankruptcy affairs and turned to the market to settle them, which means that the bankruptcy of state-owned enterprises will move from 'policy bankruptcy' to market-oriented bankruptcy, and the special status of state-owned enterprises will no longer exist. The law of competition of survival of the fittest will work effectively. The pattern of interests and expectations in the market will also change significantly. â
The resettlement of employees of bankrupt state-owned enterprises is a special problem faced by China during the transition period, and it is also the biggest disagreement in the bankruptcy law. The new Bankruptcy Law has solved this problem by adopting the institutional arrangement of 'separating the old from the new'.
The so-called "separation between the old and the new" refers to bankruptcy cases before the promulgation of the new Bankruptcy Law, where the arrears of employees' wages, medical and pension insurance and other welfare expenses need to be given priority for repayment; After the new law is officially announced, all bankrupt enterprises will be required to make secured claims a priority part of repayment.
While ensuring the rights and interests of employees, it also takes into account the stability of the guarantee system and maintains the security of transactions. This order of repayment is more in line with China's national conditions.
In addition, the new "Bankruptcy Law" also proposes for the bankruptcy of financial institutions for the first time, which means that banks, securities firms and other institutions are no longer independent kingdoms in the economy, and are also included in the track of bankruptcy according to law. In the process of China's economic development, there have actually been many examples of bankruptcy of non-bank financial institutions, such as Dapeng Securities, Delong, etc. If there is no relevant legal basis to provide a basis, it is easy to have problems in the process.
In Xiao Chen's view, the new "Bankruptcy Law" will have a huge impact on the construction of China's market economy. These effects are mainly manifested in three aspects.
First of all, the "Bankruptcy Law" has perfected China's laws on market withdrawal and provided a very good legal guarantee for the market economy. Failure to have a proper "narrative" for exiting the market can lead to false funding to enter the market and fraudulent trading practices.
Second, the Bankruptcy Law can exert the effect of expelling "bad money" and help improve social credit.
Third, a "Bankruptcy Law" that is in line with the international community can greatly improve China's international image in the TO, establish a creditable, efficient, guaranteed and expected legal mechanism and market environment, and dispel the concerns of foreign capital entering China.
Xiao Chen suddenly turned his head and asked Lin Sen: "Comrade Lin Sen, what do you think about the impact of the new "Bankruptcy Law" on the restructuring of your state-owned enterprises in Pengcheng?" â
Lin Sen had expected that Xiao Chen might ask about this, and he had already made a draft about it, so he hurriedly replied: "For a long time, the state-owned enterprises in our city have mainly achieved withdrawal through the implementation of policy bankruptcy and bankruptcy according to law, compared with policy bankruptcy, with the "Enterprise Bankruptcy Law of the People's Republic of China" promulgated in 1986 and implemented in 1988 as the legal basis for bankruptcy according to law, its bankruptcy property will first be used to repay the debts guaranteed by mortgage to banks and other financial sectors, which makes the economic compensation of the employees of bankrupt enterprises not effectively guaranteed. Out of consideration for social stability, in the past, the local government tried to solve the problem of employee resettlement through other means for enterprises that went bankrupt according to law, which added a great burden to local finances and also hindered some disadvantaged and difficult enterprises that were unable to solve the problem of employee resettlement from withdrawing through bankruptcy according to law, and the promulgation and implementation of the new bankruptcy law will solve this difficult problem.
The "Enterprise Bankruptcy Law" passed this year clearly stipulates that the wages and medical treatment, disability allowances, and bereavement expenses of the employees of bankrupt enterprises will be listed as the first order of repayment.
Article 113 of the Enterprise Bankruptcy Law stipulates that the bankruptcy estate shall be repaid in the following order after giving priority to the repayment of bankruptcy expenses and common debts:
First, the wages and medical treatment, disability allowance and bereavement expenses owed by the bankrupt person to the employees, the basic endowment insurance and basic medical insurance expenses that should be transferred to the personal accounts of the employees, and the compensation that should be paid to the employees according to laws and administrative regulations; (2) the social insurance premiums owed by the bankrupt person other than those provided for in the preceding paragraph and the taxes owed by the bankrupt person; The third is ordinary bankruptcy creditor's rights.
At the same time, in order to protect the rights and interests of the employees of bankrupt enterprises to the greatest extent, Article 132 of the Enterprise Bankruptcy Law also stipulates: 'The wages, medical treatment, disability allowance and bereavement expenses owed by the bankrupt person to the employees before the date of promulgation of this Law, the basic endowment insurance and basic medical insurance expenses that should be transferred to the personal accounts of the employees, and the compensation that shall be paid to the employees according to the laws and administrative regulations, shall be insufficient to be repaid after being repaid in accordance with the provisions of Article 113 of this Law. The specific property provided for in article 109 of this Law shall be compensated in priority over the holder with a security right in the specific property'.
The part that is insufficient to be repaid belongs to the debt owed before the promulgation of the bankruptcy law, and is repaid in priority over the secured property of the bankrupt person, which is a major breakthrough in the new bankruptcy law. Comrade Jiang Qinggui, vice chairman of the National People's Law Committee, explained in his report on the results of the deliberation of the draft law that the main consideration in proposing this plan is that it is necessary to take some special measures to resolve the arrears of workers' wages and other expenses of enterprises before the promulgation of the bankruptcy law as a problem left over from history. Since this part of the historical arrears is already quantitative, the risks that may be brought about by the repayment of its priority over the secured claims are basically predictable and controllable. With regard to the problem of new arrears formed after the promulgation of the bankruptcy law, it is necessary to actively study the root cause of the problem, and solve it by further improving the construction of the relevant labor and social security systems and increasing the intensity of law enforcement.
The new bankruptcy law will come into force on June 1, 2007, and the above breakthrough will make the law-bankrupt enterprises basically consistent with the policy-based bankruptcy in terms of protecting the interests of employees, which will be a better choice for some difficult enterprises that are trying to achieve exit through policy-based bankruptcy but cannot get the approval of the state. The policy bankruptcy will also withdraw from the historical stage after 2008, and the city can consider using the new bankruptcy law to withdraw from some difficult enterprises through bankruptcy in accordance with the law. â
Xiao Chen listened to him and nodded slightly. In fact, he has an opinion about Lin Sen. Lin Sen is a relatively unprincipled person, and he is typical of everything. However, judging from the recent situation, he still has the ability to work, and in fact, there are no serious problems with his economy and life style, Xiao Chen had the idea of transferring Lin Sen away and using Chen De as the mayor, but now it seems that it is not very necessary for Lin Sen, the mayor, to move him. Since he is a special person who listens to greetings, it is great that he can let Chen dare to greet him in any situation.
The door of the reception room finally opened, Wang Wenyuan and Lin Sen walked half a step behind Governor Xiao, Wang Wenyuan was still smiling and said, "Old leader, will you give us more funds for Pengcheng next year?" There is also the plan of southern Jiangsu to support northern Jiangsu, let's Pengcheng ......"
"The question of funds, there is a unified plan, I will give you more Pengcheng, who will give less? As for the project of southern Jiangsu to support northern Jiangsu, you can go to Comrade Wei BÅ and Comrade Jiemin yourself, and the provincial party committee and provincial government are only playing a matchmaking role in this matter, and they will not directly give any administrative instructions, and it is useless for you to find me. Xiao Chen waved his hand, with a relaxed smile on his face: "Comrade Jiemin is your old leader, Comrade Wei BÅ is your old partner, you go to them, if you can't get money, then your face is a big shame......"
Wang Wenyuan laughed and said a little proudly: "Governor, I'll just tell you this, the two cities of Wucheng and Liangxi, I don't want to go to 1 billion, seven or eight billion will never run." â
Xiao Chen interrupted helplessly: "I know that you can, when the time comes, you take the money, if you can't get a little effect, you see how I deal with you!" â
Xiao Chen saw Chen Dang coming over with the phone and asked, "What's the matter, is there anything urgent for me to deal with immediately?" â
"Nothing else is busy, there is one here, it was transferred by Governor Wang, and asked Wucheng Jiangnan Club why it said that it would not participate in the Chinese Super League this year." Chen Dare said, handing over his mobile phone.
Xiao Chen was slightly stunned, not participating in the Chinese Super League? Su Ning hadn't told him about this situation.
Xiao Chen nodded: "I know, I will ask Wucheng and the investor." â
After personally sending Wang Wenyuan and Lin Sen to the staircase, Xiao Chen returned to the inner room of the office, and after Chen Dare put the documents he wanted to approve and put them in place and then withdrew, Xiao Chen dialed Su Ning's phone.
"Finally calling?" As soon as Su Ning answered the phone, Xiao Chen's tone was a little helpless.
Xiao Chen had no choice but to scratch his head: "Has it been a long time?" I remember calling the other day. â
"A few days ago? That was thirteen days ago, Governor. Su Ning snorted.
"Okay, okay, the recent party congress or something, I'm busy and confused, I'm guilty." Xiao Chen smiled and apologized.
"Don't, it's too late for the governor to worry about the country and the people, and he forgot to call me, how dare I blame you...... Tell me, did you question me about the team? â
"How do you say it?" Xiao Chen said helplessly: "I just understand, haven't you been playing in the Chinese Super League for a few years, why don't you suddenly stop?" â
Su Ning said helplessly: "Who reported this to you, why didn't you tell you about the cause and effect?" The matter of the Chinese Super League was caused by the match-fixing style last time, and the two teams played a draw in order to 'win-win', so that Wucheng Jiangnan fought with others in the other group, and then ...... Anyway, it makes our old gentleman angry, and thinks that our domestic football environment is too poor, and he wants to retire and return to Europe. I had to go to keep people in person, and asked what conditions could be discussed, but the old gentleman didn't want to raise salaries or bonuses or anything, but let us stop playing in the Super League this year, according to him, let Barcelona play in the Super League for one year, and then play with Real Madrid in the second year, and definitely lose so much that you can't find the north. In his opinion, in terms of the current environment, it is better not to play in the Chinese Super League. â
Xiao Chen frowned and thought for a while: "Is this the overall environment like this?" â
"Isn't it? Do you think match-fixing, black whistles or something, are isolated phenomena? Do you think there are fewer people who want us to cooperate with others in Wucheng Jiangnan to play match-fixing? Do you think there are no people from the General Administration of Sports and the Football Association? Save it. â
Xiao Chen sighed: "Then this matter, even if it is irreparable?" â
Su Ning was silent for a moment, and suddenly smiled: "If you can convince Mr. Cruyff, I don't care, anyway, I basically don't have time to watch all the games, and I basically go to Wucheng every once in a while to listen to the report and watch the wonderful editing." Anyway, this team is for you, and you don't have time to watch it yourself, how can I have such a big football addiction? â
Xiao Chen pondered for a moment and said with a smile: "Otherwise, Mr. Cruyff's side, I'll communicate with him and try to convince him that at least I can make those people dare not ask us Wucheng Jiangnan to cooperate with them to play match-fixing, and then, this year's Chinese Super League will still be played, okay?" â
"It's all said I'm casual." When Su Ning said this, she suddenly laughed: "By the way, this year's World Cup, do you want to go to Germany to watch the scene?" My aunt said that day that the problem of tickets is easy to solve, basically what stands do you want. â
Xiao Chen smiled: "I believe this." However, I'm afraid I'm running out of skills, so why don't you go by yourself? â
Su Ning sighed: "Do you think I'm a hardcore ball?" â
"Forget it, when you come to Wucheng, let's see if we can watch live TV together." Xiao Chen said.
"Okay...... Oh yes, there's something I need to ask you. Su Ning suddenly became serious.
"What's the matter?"
"Taihu Tesco, is it secretly supported by you?"
Xiao Chen's heart moved: "What's the matter?" â
"No, it's just a little bit of competition with us, you know, our Tianxin's pharmaceutical retail outlets have been rolled out very much, and now they are beginning to involve some stores such as health fruits, which has a certain intersection with Taihu Tesco, and has also formed a certain degree of low-intensity competition. My analysts have analysed it...... Well, anyway, in the end, I feel that there seems to be your shadow behind Taihu Tesco, so I asked, so as not to kill each other when the time comes. â
Xiao Chen smiled slightly: "Competition is a good thing, there is no development without competition." Taihu Tesco is indeed a company that I support, but I basically only support mentally, capital operation and operation, and I don't care. â
"You don't care about the competition between the two of us?" Su Ning asked, seemingly unconvinced.
"Yes, I don't care about this, because in my opinion, your competition intensity will not be too high, let alone fatal, a little bit of low-intensity competition, for maintaining the vitality of the enterprise, I have always thought it is very important."
"Okay, let's not talk about it, let's talk about Tianchen Auto." Su Ning said: "Mr. Zhao brought out a design team, well, I mean, basically the shelf of this team is set up, as for the core technology, including engine, gearbox, chassis and other issues, it is still being improved and improved, but in the early stage, we mainly rely on cooperation with Chrysler to obtain relevant technology, and there is no big problem at present." There is just one point, Chrysler, an American car company, the economy of its engine is not high enough, which is very fatal in China's low-end car market, and a solution must be found. â
Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows: "I can't help you with this matter, you still find your aunt and let her go to fight the idea of a dozen Mercedes-Benz 'blue effects', by the way...... Let's see if Mercedes-Benz's vaunted gearbox can be introduced, even if the 7AT Mercedes-Benz doesn't do it, the 6AT shouldn't be a big problem, right? Mercedes gearbox, this is a good gimmick. â
