Chapter 0124 Answering Questions from Journalists

Xu Haodong smiled and said: "This gentleman, the bribery methods adopted by the other party before the negotiation are not punished by us, but by the law. As for negotiations, I can say that we don't like negotiations, but we don't shy away from negotiations, our door to negotiations is open, and we welcome the two Japanese and Korean companies to take the initiative to come to us to continue negotiations. ”

Several domestic reporters stood up together, and Xu Haodong pointed to a female reporter and asked her to ask a question first.

"Secretary Xu, hello, I would like to ask, it is said that in the old industrial zone of Yunling City, there are more than 80 enterprises similar to Japanese and Korean enterprises, and it is reported that the purpose of Japanese and Korean enterprises is to withdraw their capital and leave, so don't you Yunling City worry about more than 80 other similar enterprises also withdrawing and leaving?"

Xu Haodong pointed to the female reporter and said, "This female reporter's question is very good, and I am very willing to answer your question." ”

After a pause, Xu Haodong said: "This beautiful reporter, as the leader of Yunling City, I am not worried about this problem at all, everyone knows that the annual output value of those two Japanese and Korean enterprises is almost equivalent to 55% of the total annual output value of more than 80 enterprises. We can calculate an account, the two Japanese and South Korean companies withdrew their capital and left the mainland market, which is equivalent to the loss of two huge competitors, which is a great opportunity for those more than 80 enterprises. Everyone, a table of good dishes, halfway through the two particularly edible big stomachs, why should I go, am I stupid? ”

There was laughter from the audience again.

A male reporter from Hong Kong stood up.

"Hello Secretary Xu, why can't the two Japanese and Korean companies open new factories in China after they withdraw their investments and leave? Why can't their products from outside the mainland enter the mainland? Do you want to engage in trade protectionism? ”

Xu Haodong smiled first, and then said: "This gentleman, I studied economics in college, and I know a little bit about international trade. When the two Japanese and Korean companies entered the mainland and entered Yunling City, they signed a special agreement with our Yunling City, and we will announce the relevant agreements to the public later. According to the agreement, if the two Japanese and Korean companies withdraw their investments now, we have the right to take the relevant measures that I just mentioned. This compatriot, you are also Chinese, you know that there are two idioms, one is to cross the river and tear down the bridge, and the other is to unload the mill and kill the donkey, and what the two Japanese and Korean enterprises are doing now is called crossing the river to dismantle the bridge and unload the mill and kill the donkey, and in this regard, our more than 2.2 million people in Yunling resolutely do not agree. ”

A domestic reporter asked: "Secretary Xu, it is said that the negotiations are carried out openly, which is the proposition of your Yunling City, and it is your personal insistence, we would like to know what you think?" ”

"First of all, since the conflict between Japanese and South Korean companies, there have been many discussions on the Internet and countless rumors from abroad. Secondly, I have not been a leader for a long time, but I know that there are not many secrets in a county-level city, and I even think that 99% of the things in our Yunling City are not secrets, and everyone can know about them. Again, I personally like the sunshine, and I am willing to put the power I personally hold in the sun, which is called personality, so I insist that the negotiations go on openly. Also, I hate the bitter tricks of the two Japanese and Korean companies, you can say it clearly if you want to go, but you can't play conspiracy, conspiracy is a small trick of carving insects, we will negotiate openly is a conspiracy, we just want to use a conspiracy to deal with conspiracy. ”

A Southeast Asian reporter asked: "Mr. Xu, the Chinese pay attention to the golden mean, and peace is precious, and now you are in-for-tat confrontation with Japanese and Korean companies, don't you worry that this will damage Sino-Japanese relations and Sino-Korean relations?" ”

Xu Haodong smiled and asked rhetorically: "This gentleman, may I ask which country in Southeast Asia are you from?" ”

The reporter replied: "xxx"

"Oh, xxx, I understand." Xu Haodong smiled indifferently, and then said: "Mr. reporter, it seems that you and I have a very different vision. Sino-Japanese relations and China-South Korea relations are state-to-state relations, and our negotiations between Japanese and Korean companies in Yunling City are not only an example, but also have nothing to do with state-to-state relations. As for what you say,-for-tat, it is even more wrong, the conflict between Japanese and South Korean companies has caused bloodshed and injuries, and the parties on both sides have violated China's criminal law. Mr. Journalist, what is wrong with us using the law to punish criminal offenders? And I can assure you that we will punish only by the law, and will not punish the offender with a whip, as your country does. ”

Another foreign correspondent stood up, looking like he was from Asia.

"Mr. Xu, I am a Japanese journalist, can Mr. Xu negotiate the progress of the conflict between Japanese and Korean companies?"

Xu Haodong said: "Mr. reporter, according to my country's law, criminal cases should be kept secret before the procuratorate initiates a public prosecution. At present, the case is still in the investigation stage of the Public Security Bureau, and the case has not yet entered the prosecution procedure, but there are three suspects on each side of the case, and the arrest procedure has been initiated. That's all I can tell you, Mr. Journalist. ”

A South Korean journalist stood up.

"Mr. Xu, aren't you afraid of affecting the economic cooperation between South Korea and China, and aren't you afraid of losing the Korean market?"

Xu Haodong smiled, and many reporters in the audience also laughed.

"Mr. Reporter, you are so smart, your words should have been said by me, but you rushed to say them. At the same time, I tell you, we are not afraid, the small boat will hit the big ship, the big ship will not be damaged, the small boat will sink, if you don't believe it, you can try it. ”

The South Korean reporter actually shouted.

"I protest, I make a strong protest on behalf of the Republic of Korea, against you for bullying us Korean citizens."

There were countless laughter from the audience.

Xu Haodong said with a smile: "Mr. reporter, your protest is invalid, because you are mistaken, it is the conflict between Japanese and Korean enterprises, it is the Japanese and the South Korean fight, I can assure you that not a single Chinese participated in the conflict and brawl at that time." Therefore, if you Koreans lose the fight, this can only be blamed for your lack of skill, and if you want to protest, you should also go to the Japanese to protest. Mr. Reporter, as for what we are doing now, let me give you an analogy. There is a family with two sons, that is, two little children, these two little children have a fight, what do you say will be done as a parent? Of course, parents have to discipline the two little children, this reporter, the parents beat the buttocks of their two little children a few times, this can't be called bullying, right? ”

Laughter resounded throughout the large conference room.

A Taiwanese journalist stood up.

"Mr. Xu, I'm from Taiwan......"

Xu Haodong rudely interrupted a question from a Taiwanese reporter.

"Are all Chinese from Taiwan, since they are all Chinese, they are their own people, then you can't call me sir, you have to call me Secretary Xu, because I listen more kindly."

"Oh, I'm sorry, Secretary Xu, hello, I heard that you call the Japanese and Koreans little Japan and little sticks, is there such a thing? Regarding the two titles of Little Japan and Little Stick, is it insulting? ”

Xu Haodong smiled again, "This question is very interesting, I am willing to express a little bit of my personal opinion, I hope you are interested." First of all, calling the Japanese and Koreans little Japan and the little stick is by no means my invention, but the name given to the Japanese and Koreans by the broad masses of people in Yunling City. Secondly, I myself do refer to the Japanese and Koreans as little Japan and little sticks, but that was said in a private conversation, and I am sure I did not say it in public. As for the insult you said, I have a different opinion, the Chinese culture is broad and profound, and the Chinese language is rich and colorful, for example, the small word "little Japan" and "little stick" has a cordial meaning, like a child, a little guy, a little thing, a little fart child, a little girl, a little fresh meat, a little Lori, a little baby, a little obedient, etc., etc., etc., etc This can't be helped, we Chinese now have better living conditions, everyone is afraid of old age, and they all like to be small. Therefore, the title of Little Japan and Little Stick conveys the deep friendship of the broad masses of people in Yunling to the Japanese people and the Korean people. ”

In addition to laughter, the audience also burst into countless applause.

Amid the laughter, a domestic reporter stood up.

"Secretary Xu, we are vigorously managing the environment in China, we want to know, in addition to the two Japanese and Korean companies in Yunling City, there are more than 80 chemical companies, if those more than 80 chemical companies stay in Yunling City, how are you going to govern the environment and protect the environment in Yunling City?"

"This question is well raised, and we in Yunling City are gradually increasing environmental protection efforts, striving to change the serious environmental pollution problem within two or three years. As we all know, the difficulty of pollution control in Yunling City is the more than 80 chemical enterprises in the old industrial zone. At present, we have adopted the policy of counting the new accounts of the more than 80 chemical enterprises in the old industrial zones without counting the old accounts. What does it mean not to count the old account, but to count the new account? First, the environmental pollution that has been caused is paid by our municipal government itself. Second, the more than 80 chemical companies in the old industrial zone must make a commitment not to cause new environmental pollution. Third, our environmental protection department is directly stationed in each enterprise to monitor the environmental protection work of each enterprise in real time. Fourth, we will adopt a series of preferential policies in terms of taxation and finance for the environmental protection work of such enterprises...... In short, one thing I can promise through you is that those 80-odd chemical companies will not and cannot produce new pollution. ”

A foreign reporter did not get up, but asked in a loud voice: "Mr. Xu, you said that the two Japanese and Korean companies have been evading taxes and illegally discharging pollutants over the years, can you release the relevant information?" ”

Xu Haodong said: "No problem, I will urge the relevant departments to publish the relevant information on the Yunling Municipal Government website as soon as possible, if you have any questions, you can ask the relevant departments." ”

At this time, a beautiful foreign journalist stood up.

"Mr. Xu, Secretary Xu, I'm a French journalist, my name is Maria, can I ask you a few personal questions?"

Xu Haodong paused, and then smiled: "Maria, are you more interested in me than in this incident?" ”

Maria smiled: "Yes, I want to learn from you about the ideals and thoughts of the new generation of Chinese officials, is it okay?" ”
