Chapter 0844: Situation Judgment
"The fourth question is the adjustment of individual income tax. May I ask Secretary Xu, what is your view on the adjustment of individual income tax? What do you think about the divergence of opinion between public opinion and experts? How do you evaluate the claims of certain experts? ”
"I answered this question here last time, and that is my opinion, and it has not changed to this day. I would like to remind you that the individual income tax adjustment plan was formulated by experts, but the target of soliciting opinions is the majority of wage earners, which is a contradiction, a contradiction that will always exist. ”
"Experts are always on top, behind closed doors, and not grounded. They claim to be elites, they think they are superior, and if you want to listen to their words, you can listen to them, and if you don't want to listen to them, they will be treated as if they are farting. Now there is such a remark, saying that the tax threshold is too high, and there are only tens or even millions of taxpayers left, which is not conducive to the popularization of tax awareness. ”
"Well, in the eyes of such experts, personal income tax is not a tax, but a tax for the sake of paying taxes. This kind of remarks are extremely false, and they bring disaster to the country and the people. Personally, I believe that under the current economic situation, in order to boost domestic consumption, hundreds of billions of individual income taxes will not be collected. Of the more than 10 trillion yuan of fiscal revenue every year, individual income tax only accounts for a small part, and even if it is cleared, it will not affect the overall situation. We often mention a word called tax cuts for businesses, so why can't we cut taxes for people? ”
The audience burst into warm applause.
"Fifth question. May I ask Secretary Xu, can the second phase of the development of the city's high-tech industrial park be carried out as scheduled? Will the current economic situation, especially the trade war, affect the high-tech industrial parks? ”
"Here, I would like to convey a few important messages to you. First, the first phase of the high-tech industrial park was completed at the beginning of the year, and the enterprises are currently running well, with more than 85 percent of the enterprises in normal production, and the current daily production capacity is 180 million yuan. Second, the second phase of the high-tech industrial park plan will be implemented on time in a month, and the municipal government will issue an announcement ten days in advance. Third, the planned area of the second phase of the high-tech industrial park, like the first phase, is 150 square kilometers, and the actual area is 200,000 mu. Fourth, the price of land in the second phase of the plan will increase by about 3 percent over the previous year according to the price index, that is, 51.5 million yuan per mu. Fifth, as of yesterday's end of work, 2,837 Chinese and foreign enterprises had signed agreements with the municipal government to enter the second phase of the park, subscribing for more than 173,900 mu of land. ”
"At the same time, I would like to assure you that the trade war will not affect the development of high-tech industrial parks. I am very confident in this, because our high-tech industrial park, unlike the previous investment promotion, will not cause overcapacity. As we all know, as I emphasized, this is an industrial transfer and industrial agglomeration, and this is a technological upgrade of enterprises. ”
"So far, the enterprises entering the high-tech industrial park are mainly divided into four categories. First, the city's enterprises have moved from the old industrial zone to the high-tech industrial park. The second is the enterprises in the province, most of which come from the provincial capital, which is a typical industrial transfer. The third is foreign enterprises, according to my analysis, basically the same as the second category. Fourth, the export-oriented enterprises in the western region have come to Yunling City to settle down for a very simple reason: The cost of producing export products here is 5 to 15 percent lower than that of producing in the original locality. Therefore, the development of high-tech industrial parks will not be affected by the trade war. On the contrary, I personally think that the more the trade war is fought, the better it will be for the development of high-tech industrial parks. ”
Many people in the audience laughed.
"Sixth question. Secretary Xu, are you ready for the upcoming Sino-US trade war? Do you have any countermeasures other than the response? Once the trade war starts, will you call on all citizens to boycott American goods? ”
Xu Haodong smiled, "Haha...... Thank you, we're ready, and we'll see you on July 6 as for the specific measures. There are three days left until July 6, so please be patient. ”
"Regarding countermeasures, I want to explain first that this has nothing to do with the country, only with Yunling City. Yunling people have such a characteristic, you hit me, I will reply to you, and then I will give you again, this is fair. Then I sat down and reasoned, I beat you like this, and I can't beat you like this. ”
The hall erupted in thunderous applause.
"As for the boycott of American goods after the start of the trade war, my attitude is this. One, I myself will take the lead in boycotting American goods. Second, I will call on all citizens to boycott American goods. Third, the American goods that are already in use should continue to be used until they are eliminated, and do not throw them away, which is a waste. Fourth, American products whose origin is not the United States should be purchased selectively. Fifth, American products originating in the United States should be resolutely resisted. ”
"The seventh question. Secretary Xu, after the start of the trade war, will Sanshui City, Haizhou City and Qingyang City respond positively? Will other cities respond? ”
"I can responsibly tell you that ten days ago, our four cities had already discussed it. The integration of the four cities is not just talk, we are very united, and we are absolutely unanimous on the issue of dealing with the United States. As for other cities, we have no contact at the moment, and if they respond positively, we will welcome them with a raised hand. ”
"The eighth question. Secretary Xu, could you please talk about the current economic situation and the economic situation of Yunling City. ”
"That's another big question, so I'll answer it reluctantly. As far as the international economic situation is concerned, due to Trump's America First policy, the international market is in a state of extreme instability, and the United States is also trying to cut off Iran's oil exports, which will inevitably lead to an increase in oil prices. Once a war breaks out in the Gulf, an economic crisis is inevitable, and historical experience tells us that if US hegemonism is put into action, the world economy will inevitably be turbulent. ”
"Regarding the domestic economic situation, I have a basic understanding, that is, the overall stability is moving forward, big problems and small problems are continuous, there is no need to be pessimistic, but it is difficult to be optimistic. The good thing is that our market is large enough, the industry is complete enough, and the market is full of resilience, so I am very confident. I have always had the view that a big country like ours can become bigger behind closed doors, but if we want to become stronger, we should try to participate in the process of globalization. ”
"Regarding the economic situation in our city, I will first say that my personal judgment is cautious optimism. Why cautious optimism, rather than relative optimism or comparative optimism? Because this is based on the economic characteristics of our city. Under the current international situation, it is not easy for a city that is mainly export-oriented and entity-oriented to achieve cautious optimism. ”
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have carefully analyzed the economic characteristics of our city, and I have also found such advantages. First, exports are dominated by medium and high-end products. Second, a considerable part of export products is not easy to find substitutes immediately. Third, there are many importing countries and regions, and there are 169 countries and regions so far. Fourth, processing exports account for a relatively large proportion. Fifth, the role of the free trade zone. Sixth, the proportion of exports through third countries and regions is not low. Seventh, our city has its own foreign trade system, hundreds of foreign trade companies, can transport our city's products to any corner of the world. To sum up, my caution is just an attitude, and my optimism comes from the heart, so what about you? ”
The hall once again burst into warm applause, and it lasted for a long time.
