Chapter 931: Special Requirements
Guo Zhuocheng continued to talk to Yu Gangqiu: "We can provide these foreign tourists with cheap and high-quality goods, we can provide Chinese food with all kinds of color and aroma, and we can also provide them with profitable business opportunities." These are all things that Hawaii can't offer. β
Yu Gangqiu was surprised in his heart, but asked quietly: "We invited them to travel just to make money from them, how can they still make money here?" Do you still want to do a loss-making business? β
Guo Shucheng smiled: "Of course I won't do a loss-making business, it's just a win-win situation." If you think about it, it costs ten dollars to eat a steak in the United States, and it only costs three dollars with us, do they make money? β
Yu Gangqiu said: "That's just that they buy things cheaply, and the fact that they don't spend is expensive doesn't mean that they can make money, right?" β
Guo Zhuocheng said: "If a piece of clothing is 100 dollars in Washington, it only costs 100 yuan on our Qionghai Island. How many pieces of clothing do they bring back? There are also electronic gadgets, such as game consoles, computers, etc., and they can also bring back cheap ones. ......, actually, that's just one aspect, we can also provide wholesale, provide them with the opportunity to do business, provide them with the opportunity to work here, for a short period of time, as long as they have the ability to help us, they can get paid. β
Yu Gangqiu felt a little unreliable about what Guo Zhuocheng said, and felt a bit mysterious and mysterious, but he forced himself to believe in the young man in front of him, because he had given himself and all the leaders enough surprises and enough miracles, who could be sure that he couldn't create a miracle again.
What Guo Zhuocheng said to Yu Gangqiu is indeed to say some measures in the simplest terms, in order to make it easier for him to understand, tourism really wants to make money, where is it so simple? In addition to image positioning, the main thing is to do external marketing, so that Qionghai Island has a good impression and temptation in the hearts of the world, so that it is possible to attract them. Wealthy people concentrate on appreciating natural and human landscapes. People who don't have money work while traveling, or go back with a bunch of cheap goods.
Guo Zhuocheng is reborn, and he has also run a lot of places abroad in this life, and he knows that foreigners are not all rich, especially young people, many of whom are moonlight clans, if they can be allowed to work here while traveling, and bring cheap and high-quality goods back. Definitely a big attraction.
Of course, these are all things to do in the future, and there are many things to do if we want to attract foreigners to come here, especially to form a reputation and form a character. For example, Thailand is characterized by people (demons), Macau is characterized by gambling, Singapore is characterized by excellent order, Hong Kong is characterized by freedom and prosperity, and Qionghai Island is characterized by what Guo Zhuocheng needs to think about for a long time. It is impossible for him to sort out a qiΔ in such a short period of two days, and it is impossible for him to be able to say the specific one, two, and three at once in the face of Yu Gangqiu, because he is not an immortal, nor is he a computer with strong logical computing ability.
Yu Gangqiu thought for a moment. "In order to achieve your goals, the state must formulate special policies in the management of the entry and exit of foreigners, right?" It also needs to be given special treatment in terms of import and export of goods, isn't it? β
Guo Shucheng nodded and said, "Yes, at least our policy cannot discourage foreigners from coming to the island. They come when they want to come, and they can go if they want. It is better for Qionghai Island to be visa-free for everyone, and to be flexible in terms of taxation. In order to catch up with and surpass South Korea, Taiwan, and Singapore, we cannot do without special policies. β
Yu Gangqiu nodded and said, "I can't answer you about this matter for the time being, and I need to seriously consider it in the organization." Of course, I will try my best to convince other leading comrades that I will carefully report your views to the old chiefs, but I can't say whether or not you can be realized. It's a good idea to come up with a detailed charter and plan that spells out your reasoning. Of course, if we are talking about it here for a long time. You can also try to do it, I can be your back, and I will bear any responsibility. We can do it slowly and tentatively, adjusting and changing as we go. What do you think? β
Obviously, Yu Gangqiu had taken a lot of risks here, and he had already anticipated the difficulties inside. In fact, Guo Zhuocheng also knew that his request was a bit excessive. Even in the previous life, in the past 200 years, China did not exempt all countries from visas, and even the countries that were exempt from visas were very restricted. In 200, China's visa-free treatment of foreign countries mainly included the following three categories:
The first category is that foreigners holding connecting tickets and have reserved connecting seats for direct transit from China on international flights, and stay in the transit city for no more than 24 hours without leaving the airport, can be exempted from applying for a visa. This kind of visa-free travel without leaving the airport is meaningless for tourist areas at all.
The second category is the 19 countries, including South Korea, the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, as well as Germany, France, Austria, Sweden and other Schengen countries, who can transit through Shanghai and Haihai for 4 hours without visas. This category is still of no use to Qionghai Island.
The third category is dedicated to Qionghai Island. That is, citizens of 20 countries, including Malaysia, Thailand, South Korea, the Philippines, Indonesia, Germany, the United Kingdom, France, Austria, Italy, Russia, Switzerland, Sweden, Spain, the Netherlands, the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, can stay on Qionghai Island for no more than 5 days without a visa. This kind of is very good for Qionghai Island, but it does not allow these people to work in China, and the time is too short.
However, Guo also knows that it is reasonable to propose visa-free access to foreigners on Qionghai Island. First of all, this kind of visa-free is very beneficial to China when China is underdeveloped and not rich, as long as China does not care about that kind of false face, does not care about the common people to foreigners are very arrogant, thus setting off the Chinese are very poor, and have doubts about the government in their hearts. As long as we can make money from foreigners, the more they are ostentatious, the happier we should be.
Secondly, this life is different from the previous life, China's economic development in this life, scientific and technological progress is also obvious, in many areas China can almost go hand in hand with the United States, the United States does not have too much superiority in front of China, at least there is no difference of order of magnitude, there is no difference between there is no difference between there and none, plus Western countries have asked China to deal with the Soviet Union, so the possibility of mutual visa exemption is very high, if Qionghai Island is used as a visa-free area, it will not lose China's face in the world, even if other countries do not follow upThe media and public opinion will not ridicule China for this.
Passport visa-free is generally reciprocal, you are visa-free for my country's citizens, and I am visa-free for your country's citizens. Conversely, if China exempts US passports from visas, while the US does not exempt Chinese passports, then China will lose face. Therefore, passport visa exemption must be cautious, and there must be no shaving of the head, which will be a major political incident and will make a scandal in the world.
If China does exempt people from visas for tourists to Qionghai Island, this action can also serve as a key to unlock state-to-state relations and serve as a litmus test. China is one step ahead in order to make money, and countries that want China should immediately follow suit, while Europe and the United States are likely to be shy to follow.
In fact, in the previous life, the main reason why China did not have many countries to exempt visas, and Chinese had to go through a very troublesome visa before traveling to foreign countries, was that China was very strict about foreigners entering the card. On the one hand, they are worried that foreigners will bring capitalist living habits, that they will come to China to show off and that the common people will lose confidence in the government, and on the other hand, they are worried that those who can afford it at home will go abroad. Therefore, not only do foreigners not be granted visa exemption, but it is very difficult for people in China to apply for passports in their home countries, and they try to trap people in their workplaces and places of residence. Chinese make things difficult for foreigners, and foreigners naturally make things difficult for China, and people in Taiwan can fly around the world at any time with Taiwan's passports, while people on the mainland must honestly wait for visas from foreign embassies.
Finally, Qionghai Island has another advantage as a visa-free area, that is, no matter how much harm foreigners can do after they come in, they can only harm Qionghai Island, not the mainland, because there is a wide strait between the two, as long as the police guard a few ports, few foreigners can swim over and poison others, and the danger is controllable.
It is precisely because of these factors that the wise Yu Gangqiu did not say anything to death, and took the initiative to share the responsibility for Guo Zhuocheng and help him persuade other leaders.
"Thank you very much!" Guo Zhuocheng said sincerely, "I am relieved to have your words from the leader." I am most afraid that my TiyΓ¬ will be beaten to death by you guys. β
Yu Gangqiu waved his hand, signaling that this was what he should do, and then asked, "You mentioned the shipbuilding industry just now, and it seems that it should be vigorously developed. Could it be that Qionghai Island is surrounded by the sea, and you will do shipbuilding as a big industry? Can it be much of a business? Why don't you choose a few military products to do? With your abilities and connections abroad, it's not difficult to market the products of these military factories, right? Now that China's military products are in short supply, if you call experts to develop a few new varieties, won't there be a lot of profits? β
Obviously, Yu Gangqiu, who had spoken with the supreme chief, said that most of these words were tentative, and although the supreme chief was sure that Guo Zhuocheng would not bring up the matter of building a military factory, he still did not believe it in his heart.
Sure enough, Guo Zhuocheng quickly shook his head and said: "The money made from military products is too small!" It's okay to use them for transition, but it's not okay to be a long-term profit growth point. There are more civilian products that make money than military products, and as far as shipbuilding is concerned, the profits attached to it are much greater than the profits of most military products. Moreover, the sales of military products pay too much attention to the political environment and opportunities, while civilian products are much freer. The most important thing is that there are many people who use civilian products, and they involve a wide range of people. Besides, with the development of the shipbuilding industry, it is possible to produce warships and other military products, and it does not prevent us from making money in the field of military industry. β
