I'm starting to write the story of the reform phase. But I haven't grasped the balance yet, and the articles I have written recently have always been banned, and the editor is also very uncomfortable and gives a lot of advice.

I think it will be fine slowly, please forgive me.

——

On January 1, 1980, Li Guocheng remembers this day vividly.

In the past, he has been trying to invest and build a factory in Pengcheng, but he has not been able to achieve his wish. Later, he was busy with the research and development of TV sets, and he pushed off all the entertainment.

As soon as Li Guocheng went to work today, he saw an old man in his 60s, waiting in the corridor, surrounded by Chen Yuhe, who was persuading something.

Hearing the movement, both looked at him.

Chen Yuhe suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, "Chairman, you can come, this old gentleman has been here many times, the first few times, you were busy with work and didn't see outsiders."

Today, the old gentleman came, and asked him to sit and wait in the conference room, but the old gentleman has to wait for you in the corridor."

The old man stood there with a smile on his face, waiting for the little girl to complain.

The old man was thin and his hair was thinning, but he was very smooth and regular by the old man. The clothes were a common tunics in the mainland, with two pens stuck in the pockets of the jacket.

After Chen Yuhe finished speaking, the old man walked forward with steady steps and stretched out his hands enthusiastically. Li Guocheng didn't dare to hold it up, and hurriedly clasped his hands.

"Old Yuanyi, as the executive vice chairman of China Merchants Hong Kong, I take the liberty to visit, please forgive me."

The old man spoke unhurriedly, gentlely, with firm eyes and a straight posture.

Li Guocheng was a little puzzled, and he really didn't know who this gentleman was.

In fact, he is known as the enlightenment master of China's reform, and under his leadership, he founded China's first export-oriented industrial park: Shekou Industrial Zone.

In the process of developing and constructing Shekou Industrial Zone, he insisted on reform and innovation, promoted the liberation of ideas, talents and productive forces, and built Shekou Industrial Zone into "a place with the most well-known enterprises cultivated per unit area".

The famous "Shekou model" has been formed, which has played the role of a "test tube" and a "window" for the first trial and has provided valuable experience for China's reform and opening up.

He put forward the slogan of "time is money, efficiency is life", implemented open recruitment of talents for the first time in the country, and took the lead in implementing a series of reform experiments such as the management system, distribution system, infrastructure system, cadre personnel system, housing system, social security system, and financial reform of the enterprise, and set a record of 24 firsts in the country at that time.

Although Li Guocheng didn't know that this gentleman was a peacemaker, he understood the "executive vice chairman of China Merchants Hong Kong".

"Ah, when was this China Merchants Bureau established?"

"Early 79".

"Chairman, you first invite the guests to the office to sit down and talk, the old man has been here for more than 1 hour."

"I'm sorry, please", Li Guocheng turned sideways.

The old man took Li Guocheng's arm and "went with him".

"Ahh Yes, let's go".

In the office, the guests and hosts were seated, and Chen Yuhe took two cups of tea and withdrew.

"Sir, I heard you've been here many times?"

"Once after the establishment of China Merchants Group, and once in the middle of last year, it is unfortunate that you have been busy with work. In the fourth quarter, the contemptible people returned to Pengcheng to deal with affairs, and it was really presumptuous to come to visit on the first day of this year."

"Last year, I was busy with the TV production line, I have a problem, once I put into work, I don't see outsiders, please forgive me."

"I really didn't expect Mr. Cheng to be the chairman, and he actually experienced it himself and insisted on scientific research, which is really admirable."

"I'm not doing my job. I don't know what the old gentleman has to do."

"I'm not going to hide it, I'm asking you, the great god, to invest in Pengcheng."

Li Guocheng sighed for a while, he went back and forth to Pengcheng several times last year, and wanted to implement the investment matters, but all of them were useless. I didn't expect it, I really had nowhere to find it when I stepped on the iron shoes, and it didn't take any effort to get it, and the ancients were honest and didn't deceive me.

"I have always been very optimistic about the development of Huaxia, and I have always been interested in investing in Huaxia. I don't know what policies are there for investing in China."

"The policy of two exemptions and three halves that we are now implementing in Shekou means that foreign-invested enterprises can enjoy the treatment of exemption from enterprise income tax for 2 years and halved for 3 years from the tax year in which the first production and operation income is obtained.

Advanced technology-based enterprises established with foreign investment can enjoy tax exemption for 3 years and half of the enterprise income tax for 6 years.

For export-oriented enterprises, in addition to enjoying the above-mentioned preferential treatment of two exemptions and three reductions in income tax, as long as the annual export volume of the enterprise accounts for more than 70% of the total sales of the enterprise, it can enjoy the preferential treatment of enterprise income tax reduced by half

If a foreign-invested enterprise purchases domestic equipment within the total investment amount, if such imported equipment falls within the scope of the import tax exemption catalogue, it can be credited with enterprise income tax according to regulations.

For investment in high-tech enterprises, or export enterprises, the site use fee is exempted".

When Li Guocheng heard this, he was shocked in his heart, he really didn't expect that the country would pay so much in order to attract foreign investment at that time.

He knows that the corporate income tax rate in the special zone is 15 percent, while the current tax rate for large and medium-sized enterprises in China is 55 percent.

Li Guocheng did not hesitate and explained his plans and plans.

"Don't hide it from Mr. Lao, you also know the nature of Longhua Technology, our company has a plan as early as 1 year ago, and is ready to invest in home appliance production lines in the mainland, including TVs, refrigerators, air conditioners, telephones, and fax machines."

The more Li Guocheng said, the more excited the old man became, and his right hand, which was placed on the armrest of the sofa, already trembled slightly.

He understands the old man very well, and as an old revolutionary, he has personally done it and looked for investment everywhere in Xiangjiang. And it is foreseeable that they are all OEM enterprises, and the technical content is not high.

Suddenly, I heard that the production line that I had been trying to introduce all over the country could actually be produced in the mainland, which was a proper high-tech. How could he not be excited.

"Old man, you drink saliva first" After the old man's mood stabilized, Li Guocheng continued: "Longhua is ready to invest 2 billion Hong Kong dollars."

"What!"

Although the old man did not knock over the teacup, his expression was as if he had seen a ghost, and the investment he had now pulled was only 100W Hong Kong dollars, and the least was only 15W Hong Kong dollars.

When Li Guocheng said the investment amount of 20W Hong Kong dollars, his first reaction was that he heard it wrong.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Cheng, I didn't hear clearly", he is nervous now, and he very much hopes to hear 2 billion, not 20W.

"HK$2 billion".

The old man who got the affirmative answer first widened his eyes and his lips closed, and it took a long time to react. Slowly sat up straight, tidied up his clothes, and stood up.

"Mr. Cheng, thank you on behalf of the people of Pengcheng", he was about to bend down and bow.

Li Guocheng dared to let the old man salute, hurriedly got up, and held the old man's arm with both hands, "I can't do it, old man, this is a win-win situation." I went to Pengcheng to invest to make money, so you don't have to be so polite."

"That's different, that's not the same", the old man's eyes were a little moist, and he sat down slowly, not insisting any longer.

Li Guocheng saw the performance of the old man and understood the thoughts of their generation very well, and they gave all their love to this disaster-ridden country.

Never remembering personal gains and losses, the nearly 70-year-old man traveled back and forth between the mainland and Xiangjiang, running around, in order to get rid of poverty and achieve prosperity and strength as soon as possible.

He really wanted to tell the old man that he is also a Chinese person, and everything he is doing now is also for the take-off of Huaxia technology.

But he can't, at least not now, he still needs the identity of a Hong Kong businessman. He is not coveting those preferential policies, but for the convenience of the future.
