Chapter 627: Stepping Stone

Wang Guozhong's face sank like water, and he sneered: "I'm sorry, I received a salary from the state. I don't know how much tax the Pan Han Group has paid, I only know that I am serving the people, not the capitalists. In fact, it is you capitalists who are causing us trouble and wasting government spending......"

"15.4 billion."

"Huh?"

"The total tax payment of Panhan Group last year, I said it was 15.4 billion yuan."

Zhou Shuo said coldly: "China's fiscal revenue in 2000 was 1,339.5 billion, of which the profits and taxes of Fanhan Group accounted for more than 1%!" Last year, China's total GDP was 9,921.5 billion yuan, and the turnover of Pan Han Group was 139.2 billion yuan, accounting for more than 1% of the country's total GDP! Among them, the total export of Pan Han Group to the United States last year was 2.3 billion US dollars, and if we lose the US market this year, the loss will exceed 20 billion yuan! ”

Zhou Shuo pursed his lips, snorted and said, "That's it, we still lose 20 billion yuan." But this is only a conservative estimate for 2001. At the current rate of Internet and wireless communication network penetration, we will lose more than 30 billion in 2002. Within five years, our losses will increase to the scale of ten billion dollars per year! ”

"Ahh Wang Guozhong swallowed his saliva, shook his head and said: "What are you kidding, your company provides 1% of the financial revenue and 1% of the GDP amount, why has you never heard of it in China?" ”

Zhou Shuo looked at him contemptuously, took a sip of tea from the teacup, shook his head and said, "Because I can make foreigners' money." Why do you have to grab food with your compatriots in China? ”

"Last year, the export volume of Pan Han Group was more than 8 billion US dollars, and the profit from foreign investment was more than 2.5 billion US dollars. That's more than $10 billion in revenue alone. The domestic business is mainly concentrated in the electronics manufacturing industry, and the chip foundry business alone contributed more than 18 billion yuan in turnover for the whole year. LCD panel turnover of 8.9 billion ......"

"Now you understand?" Zhou Shuo looked at Wang Guozhong indifferently and said: "For every 100 yuan of salary you get, there is at least 1 yuan and 5 cents of our Fanhan Group's taxes. ”

Speaking of which, Zhou Shuo has always held this attitude towards making money. He can be said to be a very protective character, which can be seen from his unsparing investment in Xiucheng. As long as you can make money abroad, you can earn it hard, and how good is it to take it back and spend it at home after earning it? Earning one's own people's money is not counted as itself.

Wang Guozhong opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything, but sweated a lot. He is in the North American Division though. But it's not an American, and it's not an American office. He lives in the imperial capital, and of course understands what it means for a company to provide 1% of government revenue.

What is the concept of paying 15.4 billion profits and taxes in 2001? This is roughly equivalent to half of Sinopec's tax revenue in 2014.

Half of Sinopec is private, what is this concept? It's a little too scary.

It's no wonder that Wang Guozhong and the people behind him don't know the size of Fanhan Group, and Zhou Shuo's eyes have always been focused on the European and American markets over the years. On the one hand, the network market in Europe and the United States is developing faster, and the exchange rate of the US dollar and the euro against the RMB is very high.

On the other hand, as Zhou Shuo said, what does it mean for a mouse to carry a gun in the nest? Earning foreigners' money is really earning.

Pan Han Group's turnover of 139.2 billion. At least 100 billion is earned back from the European and American markets. Although the remaining tens of billions of yuan are also eye-catching, they are not so high-ranking after all.

And an organization like the North American Division only learned about it temporarily after the protests from the United States. Figures such as the amount of imports and exports and the scale of taxes are not from the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation and the Ministry of Finance. Where is it so easy to check?

Besides, if the North American Division really conducted a detailed investigation of the Panhan Group, it would not have been possible to just send two pawns over, and the director himself would have come forward with the least respect.

"Ahem. Even if you are rich, Mr. Zhou, you are still a Chinese citizen after all. Xu Liang coughed pretendedly. Wang Guozhong took over the conversation and said, "The prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people. No matter how rich you are, you still have to abide by the laws and regulations. Your current large-scale manipulation of public opinion has already caused a very bad impact! ”

Zhou Shuo spread his hands, looked at Xu Liang and said: "I am willing to take responsibility for my remarks, if I spread rumors, incite trouble or divide. Crack. Country. Home、Promote illegal information, I admit it! ”

Even without these remarks, Mr. Zhou's current behavior would not be allowed. We, the News Selection Team of the Information Bureau, have the power to supervise and regulate this. Before the matter further ferments, we hope that Mr. Zhou can rein in the precipice and not continue to make mistakes. ”

"Oh, I didn't know I was still breaking the law, may I ask which law I violated, do you need me to bring my lawyer in and discuss it with you?" Rest assured, the well-known law firm in the imperial capital has an annual consulting fee of 8 million yuan, and there is no doubt about its professionalism. ”

"You!" Xu Liang gasped twice, calmed down his feelings, and then patiently persuaded: "Mr. Zhou's current attitude is not good for you. Public opinion is a public instrument, not a channel you use to vent your anger. Confronting our press bureau is not the work of a wise man. With such a wide range of public opinion manipulation, what if it is used by someone with a heart? What to do if it causes social unrest? Take a step back and say, if other rich people are wronged, they will follow your example, and this country will not be messed up! ”

"So what is this utility for? Our Fanhan Group employs more than 100,000 people, and its affiliated enterprises, cooperative enterprises, and upstream and downstream industries involve the survival and interests of tens of millions of people. If Pan Han Group loses the U.S. market and loses tens of billions of yuan every year, do you know how many people will lose their income or even lose their jobs? If these people are raised by your press bureau, then I agree to change your attitude. ”

Xu Liang was stunned, even if it was 20 billion yuan, it was enough to kill the Information Bureau......

He's in the news, and the numbers are basically in his head. Based on the annual per capita income of 6,000 yuan in cities and towns in 2000, 20 billion yuan can feed at least 3 million people. And in fact, with these 20 billion, not to mention that only 3 million people can eat? These people still have to consume, and they still have to pay taxes on their consumption, and the merchants who have taken their consumption still have to load the goods, and the manufacturers have to organize production.

The 20 billion can at least create another 100 billion value in China.

This Fanhan Group is too TM wealthy, and I can't do this job today! After working for so long, it was the first time Xu Liang had encountered such a thing.

Zhou Shuo looked at the two people who were speechless by him, and suddenly felt a little bored. He waved his hand and sighed, "Okay, my halftime break is over, you guys go out." Next time, remember to at least find someone of the same level, and I'll point my fingers at you if you two don't match each other. ”

Zhou Shuo picked up the teacup, didn't look at the two people who were blushing by him, and ordered: "Tang Ya, send off guests." ”

Tang Ya, who had been waiting next to her, hurriedly walked over and made a gesture of invitation to the two. Xu Liang and Wang Guozhong also knew that they had kicked the iron plate this time, if it weren't for the fact that they didn't show their identities at the beginning, they just took a piece of country. Business. The letter of introduction from the hospital, with Zhou Shuo's level, the two of them may not even be able to meet.

"Let's go." Wang Guozhong shook his head lightly and pulled out Xu Liang, who was still a little dazed.

The cold wind blew in February, which made Wang Guozhong and Xu Liang shiver together. The two glanced at each other, and they both saw a hint of strangeness in each other's eyes.

"Alright, Brother Xu." Wang Guozhong smiled bitterly, shook his head and said: "The two of us have done a bad job this time, and so is the division, why don't you investigate the situation clearly......"

"Lao Wang, although we are temporary partners, I will say a simple word." Xu Liang took out a rare cigarette and put it in his mouth, lit it, took a puff, and threw it on the ground and trampled it out. He sighed and said, "Don't you see that? It's deep. ”

"Isn't it deep? Who knew that we in China could have the money to get to this journey. ”

"I'm not talking about the depth of the water, but the two of us were used as gunners." Xu Liang patted Wang Guozhong's shoulder and said in a deep voice: "I was thinking just now, have you ever heard of a company in the United States that lobbied the U.S. Congress for people?" ”

"Ha, Brother Xu, have you forgotten that I am from the North American Division? Can I not know this? ”

"It's good to know, it's good to know." Xu nodded, smiled bitterly, and said, "Then you may not know, in fact, in this imperial capital city, there is also a similar group of people doing similar work. ”

"It's just that this American can blatantly do this business, but we in China have to do this business quietly."

"And the two of us may be the stepping stones, the waystones thrown by someone......"

Hiss -

Wang Guozhong frowned and thought about it carefully, and the more he thought about it, the paler his face became. Gradually, he nodded involuntarily and said, "Brother Xu is right, now that I think about it, there seem to be a lot of doubts about this matter." ”

"Okay, it's also fate that we've partnered this time." Xu Liang exhaled and said, "I won't say anything else, I will fight for training after I go back, stay away from this matter." ”

"I know, thank you Brother Xu!" Wang Guozhong nodded vigorously and watched Xu Liang turn around and leave.

Wang Guozhong looked back at the exquisite guest house of the Panhan Research Institute behind him, and was slightly distracted. Thinking back to Zhou Shuo's confident figure, he muttered to himself.

"Could it be that there are really people in this world who can fight with the US House of Representatives on their own?" (To be continued......)
