Chapter 1053 Greatly shorten the period of entry negotiations

In the past, China had made countless efforts and efforts, but could only join the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) as an ordinary new member. In a closed room meeting, a small number of countries with an interest in the subject matter of the meeting can agree on a proposal on the topic in advance, and then publish the resolution to all Member States, so as to force the ordinary Member States to implement it.

As a matter of fact, in its previous life, China not only failed to regain its status as a member of the WTO, but even joined the WTO as an ordinary new member with twists and turns, exhausted its energy and effort, and was forced to give up many interests; after many years of fierce battles and the painstaking efforts of countless people, it finally became an ordinary member of the WTO on December 11, 2001. During this period, GATT also became the WTO, and the entry from customs became WTO accession.

The general process of China's accession to the WTO is as follows:

In November 1982, China was granted GATT observer status and was able to attend the annual meeting of the Conference of the Parties.

On November 6, 1984, the GATT Council decided that China could participate in the meetings of all GATT organizations.

On July 11, 1986, China sent an official note to the Secretary General of the GATT, Dunkel, requesting that the GATT be reinstated as a member of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade. The first meeting of the China Working Group was held in February 1988.

At this time, the door of GATT seems to be starting to open to China, and everyone is waiting to see. But with the sudden deterioration of China's political environment in 19**, the door of GATT was abruptly closed.

Negotiations resumed in 1994, and on 11 July 1995 he was admitted as an observer to the organization, followed by more than six years of negotiations, culminating in the 143rd WTO membership.

From November 1982 to December 11, 2001, China's accession to the WTO lasted nearly 20 years. In the history of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) and the WTO, no country has gone through so many twists and turns, so many debates and concerns as China's accession to the WTO.

Prior to this, China had to accept the so-called "most-favored-nation status" approved by the United States once a year, and it was subjected to difficulties and pressure from the United States. Every time the United States announces that it will grant China "most-favored-nation treatment," the majority of Chinese who do not know the inside story are still happy and proud, but they do not know that they have been tricked by others, because this is originally China's right, and China's original power is much greater than this so-called "most-favored-nation treatment," and China should have the same power as the United States to give to other countries the so-called "most-favored-nation treatment."

Although China's accession to the WTO requires an expensive "entry fee", which may have some temporary negative effects, the positive effects far outweigh the negatives:

After China's accession to the WTO, China will be able to integrate into the international economy and society faster and better. WTO accession is conducive to safeguarding China's economic interests; It is conducive to expanding trade exports and introducing foreign capital.

As can be seen from the above timetable, under the impetus of the Supreme Minister and others, and with the efforts of Guo Zhuocheng, China began to resume negotiations on the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade four years earlier than in the previous life. Guo can also expect that China will be able to make full use of the current honeymoon period between China and European and American countries to complete the difficult negotiations in the previous life, so that China can enter the customs before 19**, regardless of whether there will be a sudden bad political environment in 19** in this life.

Hearing this news, Guo Zhuocheng was very proud and excited. He even wanted to prank Chu Xuji, the former prime minister, and say: "Premier Chu, you don't have to boil your head in order to join the GATT or WTO in this life." This most troublesome problem, I solved it for you, hehe. ”

China's participation in the negotiations on the resumption of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) is a huge benefit to the world economy, both for world trade and for China's economic development.

Naturally, Guo Zhuocheng hinted to Princess Madeleine of the IIC company in advance, arranging for her to raise funds to enter the stock markets of the United States and the United Kingdom, and to enter the stock market before the stock market soared.

Sure enough, when the U.S. and China announced a package of cooperation agreements at the same time, announcing the news that China and the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) negotiations on China's resumption of the status of a member of the party, the stock markets of European and American countries were buoyed by the news and rose sharply, with the Dow Jones index rising **7% on the day, and stocks in London and other countries soaring.

However, not all Western stocks are sunny, and the stock market of China's neighbor Yueben has fallen instead of rising. The economic community is crying: a strong competitor is coming!

When she lamented and began to actively carry out activities in Europe and the United States, Princess Madeleine couldn't help but be overjoyed, and reported to Guo Zhuocheng as soon as possible: she not only made a lot of money in the European and American stock markets, but also made a lot of money in the stock market. Especially for making a big profit in the stock market, it is a long time to show off. Because Guo Zhuocheng did not hint at her to go to the stock market at that time, because he didn't know whether the stock market was going up or down.

If we look at it from a global perspective, the trade will also benefit from China's accession to the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, and in this respect, the stock market should rise. However, since China and the United States have signed agreements on large-scale integrated circuit manufacturing, shipbuilding, and automobile manufacturing, the advantages of China in these industries will be greatly threatened, and the markets and profits of these industries will be greatly discounted, and this will undoubtedly cause the stock market to plummet.

Since Guo Zhuocheng is not an economist and cannot use the memories of his previous life to cheat, Guo Zhuocheng has no choice but to give up it. What he didn't expect was that in the IIC company, Princess Madeleine had many outstanding economists under her command, and with only a little bit of information, they would be able to call the wind and rain, so it was naturally not difficult for her to make a huge amount of money.

According to Princess Madeleine, the profits she made from the stock market this time were enough to invest in Qionghai Island a few more times, and she would love for Guo Zhuocheng to give her a few more such tips.

This made Guo Zhuocheng speechless.

But what made him happy was that this time, all the money that Princess Madeleine made from the stock market was used as investment profits for the honest investment bank, which made the reputation of the honest investment bank even stronger and its reputation in the financial world even greater. Many in the financial community have watched the bank's rise with jealousy and admiration.

For example, China generously gave Yueben a license to produce Spark computers locally, China gave Yueben a license to produce game consoles locally, and China gave priority to the sale of oil extracted from Iraq to Yueben enterprises...... These moves of China make me grateful to Dade, and I believe that China's repaying grievances with virtue is a real help for the rapid development of the economy, which is even comparable to that of the United States, and is far better than the United States in some aspects, because every time the United States helps, it either comes with various political conditions or sets up a lot of obstacles, and only China is purely economic and does business in a real way. The Chinese have the style of ancient gentlemen, and the money that should be earned is earned without pulling a penny, but the money that should not be earned will not be plundered.

Not only do they not know that their economy has been quietly emasculated by China, but even the Chinese and the rest of the world do not know that China has poisoned the economy slowly. The reason for this is not because of how clever China's political axes are, nor how stupid the rest of the world is, but because they do not know the rapid economic development of the previous life. They all thought that the economy was fast enough now.

As for that little South Korea, it has lost the foundation for sustained high-speed development, although their development has been fast enough, but due to the emergence of China, their stamina has been taken away by China, and their market will be snatched away by China even if it is not all taken away by China.

"The way this is now, I guess there will never be the pride of 'buying the United States' in the previous life, right? It is estimated that the 'Plaza Agreement' that made me want to cry without tears will not appear. Guo Zhuocheng thought happily in his heart, but a wry smile appeared on his face, "Without the 'Plaza Agreement' that the United States forced them to sign, it would not have been possible for the Yuan of the Yuan to appreciate sharply, and I would not have been able to make money." ”

If someone knew that Guo Zhuocheng was so selfish and selfish, and he was so good at getting benefits, he would definitely not help but spit on him: "You are too shameless, right?" You already have so much money, and you have to scrape the flesh off the poor them, can you bear it? ”

Forbearance must be forbearance, even if he takes away all the other party's things, he is willing, no, not willing, but thirsty, but he is not capable now. China simply does not have the ability to suppress the capital, so it can only boil frogs in warm water. In other words, it can only be done in the form of fair competition.

In fact, China's current rapid development also brings a hidden danger that makes people laugh and cry, that is, there is no master and no learning object. In the previous life, with the progress of reform and opening up, China found that the country was so backward after the country was opened, and the Chinese who thought they were living in paradise found that foreigners lived a better life, because they had envy and admiration, began to study and catch up, and of course they also produced blind worship, thinking that foreign things are good, thinking that foreign moons are rounder than China, and some radical so-called elites even proposed total Westernization, ignoring the actual situation that the Chinese population is different from place to place. Ignoring the fact that Western countries are also for their own interests, they cannot really help China, and they are clamoring for a complete transformation of China, a complete change in China's system, and integration into Western countries.
