Tang Bao was about to go out and leave the space to Chen Yongguang, but suddenly heard a voice from the door of the office, he subconsciously looked back, but it was empty, there was no figure, and he was wondering in his heart...... Chen Yongguang had already left him and ran towards the door alone.

"Chief!"

Chen Yongguang walked out briskly and respectfully saluted.

Peng.

Hearing Chen Yongguang shout the chief, Tang Bao's heart couldn't help but beat faster, Chen Yongguang is an army general, and there are only a few people who can make him call the chief. Carefully recalling the accent of the person just now, Tang Bao already had a basic idea in his heart.

Call.

Thinking that he would be able to meet that legendary awesome character soon, Tang Bao's mood was extremely excited.

……

After a while-

I saw an old man in a gray tunic, accompanied by Chen Yongguang, into the office. And Tang Bao's grandfather also followed.

"Hello Chief!"

As the old man approached, Tang Bao also hurriedly greeted him.

"Well, Comrade Xiao Tang, how are you." The old man smiled and nodded to Tang Bao, then turned his gaze to Old Man Tang and said with a smile: "Old comrade-in-arms, you have got a precious grandson." I think Don Jr. is a talented person who can do great things......"

"Haha."

Hearing the old man praise Tang Bao, the old man couldn't help laughing, looking very happy. If an ordinary person said this, he would naturally not care. But the person who said this is the old chief who led the country back on the right track, and that's another matter.

He also felt that he had lost his eyes before......

The old man was accompanied by Chen Yongguang and the old man. They sat down one after another.

"Xiao Tang, you can sit too. Just treat me like an ordinary old man, don't be inhibited. Seeing that Tang Bao was still standing, the old man said kindly.

The old man also smiled and nodded.

Tang Bao sat down again with peace of mind, in his previous life, he had seen a lot of big people, but he didn't have the opportunity to meet the old man.

"Don Jr. The method you just proposed to repay the loan with rare earth resources, I think it is feasible! The old man once again expressed his opinion.

"Hmm."

Tang Bao hummed softly. To be honest, he talked to Chen Yongguang very well, and he didn't have any scruples, that was because Chen Yongguang was an old acquaintance. He knows what kind of character Chen Yongguang is, so he can easily grasp things and know what to say and what not to say.

But.

The old man in front of him seems to be very peaceful, but will he only be a simple old man who can rise and fall and stand tall?

He didn't dare to be casual......

At this time.

Chen Yongguang said: "Chief, this little guy's request is not simple, the precondition for his loan is to grant him the exclusive right to export rare earths. This is an economic matter. I can't interfere either, you ......? ”

"Oh? Rare earth export trade franchise! ”

The old man's eyes couldn't help but show a hint of surprise, but his face was still calm and gentle.

"Yes."

Chen Yongguang nodded in agreement.

"Rare Earth Export Trade Franchise...... I remember the first two years in order to encourage foreign exchange earnings through exports. The state has issued a policy on rare earth export tax rebates. Xiao Tang, you see this point before you want to export the trade franchise? The old man pondered for a moment and asked Tang Bao with a smile.

"Export tax rebates?"

Tang Bao felt a little surprised, he really hadn't noticed this. "Uh...... Chief, I really don't know if the country has introduced a rare earth tax rebate policy. I want a rare earth export franchise. It is optimistic about the potential value of rare earth resources, and is unwilling to see domestic precious rare earth resources. Cheap sales abroad. ”

"There is oil in the Middle East, and we in China have rare earths. It is a pity that China has abundant rare earth resources, but it has not achieved matching influence. In my opinion, rare earths are a more precious resource than oil...... It should be taken seriously. After Tang Bao finished speaking, he secretly thought, I'm sorry, I took out your old famous quote and used it in advance.

The old man clapped his hands and said, "There is oil in the Middle East, and there are rare earths in China!" Well, that's a good point! ”

The Middle East has made use of its abundant oil resources and is thriving internationally. However, he is not sure whether rare earth resources can bring the same influence as oil resources.

"Keep talking." The old man gestured, seemingly interested in Tang Bao's idea of rare earths.

Call.

Get encouragement from the elderly.

Tang Bao's courage gradually increased, and he said loudly: "As far as I know, the current international rare earth export countries are the United States and the Soviet Union, accounting for the vast majority of the market share, but their mining costs are far higher than China's, with China's encouragement of the export of rare earths to earn foreign exchange, it is foreseeable that in the near future, the United States and the Soviet Union rare earth enterprises will be squeezed out by ultra-low prices of Chinese rare earths, either shut down or have to go out of business." And that will also be the moment to show the potential influence of China's rare earth resources...... Monopoly in any industry will bring amazing benefits. Rare earth resources are a strategic resource, which has an irreplaceable position in the military, metallurgical industry, etc., and its monopoly potential income is not only a visible dollar foreign exchange. ”

Hear the words.

The old man couldn't help but recall the terrifying influence of the two oil embargoes imposed on European and American countries in the Middle East...... He couldn't help but imagine in his heart that China would control the international rare earth export trade market, and he couldn't help but look forward to it a little more, maybe rare earth resources will really add a big trump card to the country!

"Xiao Tang, as you said, monopolizing the world's rare earth export trade market, its potential benefits are unimaginable. Wouldn't it be more appropriate to have a direct state franchise? ”

Forehead.

Listening to the old man's question, Tang Bao was a little dumbfounded, thinking that you wouldn't play with me, I finally seized this opportunity.

Meantime.

Tang Bao's head was also constantly thinking about how to deal with this situation, at this time, the country was really going to start a franchise, and he would completely lose the opportunity.

"Whew. Chief, I think that rare earth products are not suitable for the direct monopoly of the state! After thinking for a moment, Tang Bao replied unhurriedly.

"Oh?"

"First, countries are reapplying to join the GATT (the predecessor of the World Trade Organization), and the government's monopoly on rare earth products may create a bigger obstacle to negotiations. Taking a step back, other countries will not sit idly by and watch government-controlled companies monopolize the rare earth export market. Tang Bao suddenly remembered that the country was struggling to see the customs entry negotiations, so he put it forward, and he believed that the country would not add new obstacles to the customs entry negotiations.

Secretly glanced at the old man, and saw that he still didn't have any special reaction.

Tang Bao continued: "Second, it is a difficult and long process to control the world's rare earth export trade market, and there are two strong opponents, the United States and the Soviet Union. Only by defeating them will we have a chance. The government grants a monopoly to state-owned enterprises, and I am afraid it is difficult to adapt to this kind of high-intensity market competition, especially this kind of competition in which you want to dominate the market, and the identity of state-owned enterprises is even more inappropriate. ”

"Third, if you want to reach your goals, you have to have adequate funding. Because it is necessary to make a good plan for loss-making dumping, and use ultra-low prices to quickly defeat competitors. ”

"Well, in the end, I think the state should focus on the potential impact of rare earth resources, rather than focusing on small profits. Even if I obtain the monopoly of rare earth export trade and eventually occupy this market, I will act in accordance with the will of the state, which is not much different from the monopoly of state-owned enterprises, and even more convenient than the monopoly of state-owned enterprises. Tang Bao explained his reasons in one breath.

Hear out.

The old man did not immediately express his position, but took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and smoked it with a plop, and for a while smoke floated in the room.

Call......

Tang Bao's heart is also up and down.

As time passed, there were more and more cigarette butts on the ground, one, two, three...... The old man kept smoking and puffing smoke rings. It seems that there is also hesitation and difficulty in making a decision on whether to grant the monopoly of rare earth export trade to Tang Bao.

The old man was thinking, and no one bothered him.

Mr. Chen is a member of the military and has rarely expressed his opinion on other matters. The old man has his own opinions, but considering his identity, it is not easy to speak at the moment, so he simply sits aside and keeps silent.

It's been a long time.

The old man slowly snuffed out the cigarette butt in his hand and said in a deep voice: "The rare earth export trade franchise can be given to you!" ”

Call.

It's done!

Hearing the old man's words, Tang Bao was secretly excited in his heart, but considering the identity of the old man, he couldn't help but show it, in front of the old man, he should not behave too presumptuously, otherwise the old man would think that he was too impetuous. Although Tang Bao had no intention of entering politics, he also wanted to leave a perfect impression on the old man.

"Thank you, Chief, for your trust!" Tang Bao thanked.

As he himself said, rare earth resources are important strategic resources, and the old man dares to hand over the export trade franchise of this strategic resource to him, which is definitely a great trust.

"Ha, Xiao Tang, I also want to make a pact with you. The rare earth franchise is not permanent, it needs to be set for a certain period, just 20 years! After expiration, the state will make adjustments according to the actual situation, maybe take back the franchise privileges, or maybe it will continue to be left to you. The old man said.

"No problem. Twenty years! Tang Bao agreed without thinking. It was enough to get a twenty-year rare earth export trade franchise, and he didn't think that he could occupy this piece of cake forever. What's more, in 20 years, Tang Bao is enough to make a good layout in the rare earth market, even if he loses the franchise in the end, it will not be a big problem.

Suddenly.

Tang Bao said again: "Well, I also have a condition. It is hoped that the competent authorities of the government can form a regulation on the issue of rare earth export franchises. (To be continued) R466
