Chapter 1142 Ah San makes money, Ah San spends money, and doesn’t take a cent home

Over the years, the mobile phone market has been very competitive.

The history of mobile phones can be traced back to the brick-and-mortar mobile phones of the 1980s. At that time, these mobile phones still used analog signals, the call quality was not high, and the price was very expensive. However, it was the most respectable thing to go out with such a mobile phone. of.

If divided according to technology, this is called 1G, and Motorola dominates this field. Soon, mobile phone technology moved from the analog era to the digital era. The size of mobile phones was further reduced and could finally be stuffed into pockets. The technology also advanced to 2G, and new kings were born, such as Nokia. Nokia's mobile phones are very sturdy and can be used as bricks.

However, the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead, and the waves in front die on the beach. When the electronics industry of Mingzhou Group developed, Nokia stepped aside. Loongson developed advanced chips, and coupled with BOE's screens, smart phones The era has just arrived!

Compared with Nokia, which only has a few simple Snake games, mobile phones built with Loongson technology have become the embodiment of intelligence. They can install many games, have various functions, and can even replace computers in many places.

As a result, Nokia was eliminated.

Of course, Nokia is still a big company. After all, the mobile phone business is only a small part of the communications business. It’s like if everyone knows a certain person in later generations and is suppressed to the point of being unable to produce mobile phones, it seems that it will not work. In fact, , the mobile phone business is only a subsystem business of theirs, and their main business is communication technology. Various base stations, various switches, etc. are their main and core business, and mobile phones were launched later.

Nokia is still a big company, and at the same time, it also wants to regain the lost position. However, it is not easy to compete with Eastern electronic technology in the market. One of the experiences Nokia has summed up is to reduce costs.

How can costs be reduced?

Of course you have to find a place where labor is cheap!

This is not possible in Europe. The labor costs in Europe are very high, and there are strikes and demonstrations in Europe from time to time. Europeans look at the Aegis warships being built in the East one after another, and they can only be greedy. Why? Of course it’s because the production costs in Europe are too high!

They searched all over the world and found Ah San.

After all, Asan is the second most populous country in the world, with sufficient manpower and cheap labor! Moreover, Asan has a caste system, and people from lower castes have no complaints and just act like cows and horses. Moreover, a large population means a large market!

When Nokia issued this request, Asan was also very excited. Countless states extended olive branches. After the mother of Tamil Nadu (the official’s nickname) saw the news, she immediately ran to Europe. , went to discuss with Nokia executives. The Sriperumbudur Special Economic Zone in their state was being developed. It was only 30 kilometers away from the Chennai International Airport. It had a good location and sufficient manpower, so the two parties hit it off.

In 01, the factory was built, and in 02, the factory was completed and put into production. Young people nearby walked out of the farmland, got on the bus, and entered the factory assembly line.

Yes, it is impossible to take a bus and build a self-sufficient town similar to the Foxconn factory in the East. Foxconn in the East has large dormitories, shops, and entertainment venues, but here in Asan, people just I sit at home and go to the road when I go to work, waiting for the bus to pick me up.

Fortunately, it can make money, and the cooperation between the two parties is still in the honeymoon period, which is quite good. Nokia relies on Asan's low-cost human resources and Asan's market, and it is developing well.

Nokia's executives are also curious, why don't Asians come in to a market as big as Asan? Especially the Loongson company. If they set up a factory here, Nokia would have nothing to do without them!

In a room in the three-story office building of Nokia's Asan factory, Onila, the local person in charge, was looking at the people in front of him and talking nonstop.

"Mr. Guo, you Futukang should have set up a factory here in Asan a long time ago. Setting up a factory here has the advantage of low labor costs, which can reduce our production costs by more than 30%. This is profit. If you want to compete with the Orientals, you have to set up a factory here! We have already made half a billion dollars."

Mr. Guo nodded: "We are also interested in the human resource advantages here, but we are still not sure whether it is safe to set up a factory here. For example, electricity, water, supporting facilities, etc."

"There is no problem with any of this." Onila said: "You can drink Ganges water. People here are drinking it. The water we drink can be flown in. There is no problem with electricity. They will turn off the power gates in the countryside. Come to ensure our supply. As for the supporting facilities, after you come here, the supporting facilities will be more sufficient."

Mr. Guo nodded. They had already thought about it several times. Now, they might as well just go ahead and do it.

"Okay, we will officially start cooperation after we return."

At this moment, someone suddenly ran in from outside: "Mr. Onila, Mr. Onila, the tax collector is here!"

"Oh, let them come in." Onila didn't think anything big would happen. After all, they were running their business here and paying taxes normally, so what else could be the problem?

Tax officer Erlanger came in and looked at Onila seriously.

"Mr. Onila, after our verification, we have found that you have been evading taxes in the past few years, and the amount is as high as 2 billion rupees! So, let me tell you that you need to pay the relevant taxes and fines. A total of 40 billion rupees!”

When he heard this number, Onila was stunned. Are you kidding? Forty billion rupees. At an exchange rate of more than 80, it is equivalent to 500 million U.S. dollars. They have made a total of 500 million in the past two years. This Do they all have to pay a fine?

"Mr. Erlanger, I'm afraid there's a misunderstanding?"

"No misunderstanding, we have already done the verification, and you have indeed evaded taxes." Erlanger said: "You must pay the fine within three days, otherwise, we will freeze your account and even seal your factory. .”

"I want to know where the tax evasion was?"

"You mistakenly used tariff exemptions when using imported parts," Erlanger said. "So, you evaded a large amount of taxes."

Onila was a little confused: "Tariffs? Impossible. According to the agreement we made when we first built the factory, you allowed us to be exempt from tariffs when using imported parts within three years. It's not yet the deadline. You Tamilians This condition that Nadu once agreed to is a support plan for us to build a factory here."

"That condition was proposed by Tamil Nadu, not by our central government. In fact, this condition has never been approved by us, so you have been evading taxes!"

Onila was shocked. If it weren't for the preferential conditions offered by Tamil Nadu, why would they build a factory here? What about now? The other party actually called this tax evasion?

"Then this is also your legal issue and has nothing to do with us!"

"No, it has something to do with you. Now, please pay a fine of 40 billion rubles as soon as possible." Erlanger said: "The time is only three days. After three days, we will freeze your account."

Erlanger came to deliver the notice, and after the delivery was completed, he left happily, leaving behind a confused Onila and Mr. Guo who had been here as a spectator.

"This... they obviously did this on purpose, right?" Mr. Guo said: "They used preferential conditions to attract foreign investment, and then, when they developed here, they took back the previous preferential treatment and threatened to freeze funds? I have invested all over the world and have never seen such a bad investment environment. They want you to keep all the money you make."

"We will never agree to this, and we will resolve this issue through legal means!"

Onila clenched her fists. They were Nokia, once the most powerful communications company in the world. How could they be brutally harvested by such a rogue government!

Onila made a decision.

However, time is precious, and the process here is too slow. After three days, all funds were frozen and the entire company was completely shut down because the water and electricity were cut off!

This incident shocked the whole world instantly.

Dongfang began to control the population size. The population growth has finally decreased over the years and passed the peak. However, Asan's population is still growing. Everyone has noticed that in a few years, Asan's population will It has surpassed the East and become the most populous country in the world. Such a populous country is not only a source of excellent labor force, but also an important commodity dumping market. It can be said that setting up a factory in Asan will be the best choice.     But now?

The bloody example of Nokia is before our eyes. It is okay to set up a factory, but as long as we set up a factory, we must be prepared to be cut off and spit out all the profits!

East.

"Hello everyone, welcome to this episode of Zhang Zhong. The name of this episode is relatively long. It's called Ah San makes money. Ah Sanhua doesn't take a cent home. Zhang Zhong will analyze the recent Nokia incident for everyone. Watch Let’s see what the worst investment environment in the world looks like.”

Zhang Zhong said that the program started with the military, but after that, it gradually penetrated into all aspects. There are many reasons. The military in the East is becoming more and more advanced, and many times it is kept secret. Zhang Zhong said that he cannot continue to talk about various aspects. Without military technology, it can only develop into other industries, but they are all the most eye-catching topics.

"Let's review Nokia's experience in Asan. In 01, Nokia decided to set up a factory in Asan in an attempt to use Asan's human resources advantages to reduce costs. It received an enthusiastic response from Asan. Among them, Tamil The conditions offered by Nadu are the most favorable, including a three-year tariff exemption. After all, we know that a mobile phone has a large number of parts, and it is impossible to produce them all in Asan. Nokia opened its store in Asan. The factory is actually an assembly plant, and many parts have to be transported from all over the world."

"The Nokia factory was completed and put into production in 02. This year is 05. The three-year tariff exemption period has not yet expired. However, the Asan tax department claimed that Nokia evaded taxes and mistakenly used the tariff exemption. It can be said that when I heard Zhang Zhong was very surprised when he heard this news. I, Zhang Zhong, am known as the head of the Strategic Deception Bureau. I am usually capable of deception, but compared with Ah San, I am absolutely nothing."

"The three-year tariff exemption period is just to tease you. Asan asked Nokia to make up for the loss of 40 billion rupees. This figure is exactly consistent with the profits that Nokia has made at the Asan factory in the past few years. We can see that a With lofty international ideals, enterprises come to Asan, fight for Asan, make money for Asan, and Asan makes money and spends it, but does not take home a single point! I don’t know if other companies have seen this kind of operation of Asan. What would you think?"

"Here, I would also like to make some suggestions to the Asan tax department. This approach is not very good. It first offers preferential conditions and then raises tariffs to reap profits. This approach is too naive. In fact, it is There are better ways to do it."

Zhang Zhong gave pointers there: "For example, it can be said that the company violated the money laundering act, froze their account, and then asked for bail as a guarantee for unfreezing. The bail does not need to be returned, and it will naturally belong to itself. In this way, it will be returned to the owner. It will make the company miserable."

"For another example, you can temporarily amend the law to say that something that was not illegal is illegal, and then trace it back, so that it is legally compliant."

The program Zhang Zhong said quickly became popular all over the country and around the world, and the classic saying was translated into various versions.

Mingzhou Group.

Zhao Ling sighed with emotion: "Brother Tao, your layout is really deep!"

Qin Tao asked Lao Maozi to lend his glory level to Ah San. Ah San took the bait, but Ah San didn't have any money, so Qin Tao not only helped Lao Maozi find a way, but also helped Ah San find a way, because Lao Maozi had the solution. Ah San didn't pay attention to what he proposed and just obeyed.

Now that the whole world knows how bad the investment environment is in Asan, are there any factories investing in Asan? Without foreign investment, Asan would have to rely on themselves. How could they develop the economy?

Ah San was so stupid, he only looked at the immediate benefits, and only thought about cutting leeks, without thinking about how to develop in the future.

"Actually, I just pushed. Even without my push, Ah San would have done this. So, I have always said that we will not set up a factory in Ah San, no matter how cheap labor there is. No matter how big the market is, we don’t make that much money, and when we do business with Asan, we must pay the full amount, otherwise we would rather not do it!”

Qin Tao has a deep understanding of this country, so the companies under the Mingzhou Group have never set foot in that country. Moreover, they can't make a mistake. There are enough customers coming to the door, so there is no need to chase Ah San.

"Mr. Qin, the No. 101 destroyer is going to conduct a new missile test. Are you going?" At this moment, Xu Zhengyang walked in and said to him.

Qin Tao was immediately overjoyed: "Of course I want to go!"

The new test of the No. 101 destroyer is of course the Hongqi-19! Although the land-based test of this missile has been completed long ago, the sea test has not yet been carried out, and the running-in with the 055 has not been completed. This test is of great significance!

"By the way, what is the target bullet?" Qin Tao asked curiously.

The first test launch was on land. At that time, no target missile was launched, and a satellite in space was directly destroyed. But what about this time? According to actual combat requirements, the orbit should not be known in advance, so satellites are impossible. They can only launch ballistic missiles. Could it be Dongfeng-21?

"Big Wave -1."

This kind of thing is of course extremely confidential. No more than ten people in the army know about it. However, Xu Zhengyang is Qin Tao's personal secretary and a channel for Qin Tao to contact the military. He has the right to know many things.

Hearing the name Julang-1, Qin Tao was also startled: "Julang-1? Doesn't that mean that it needs to be launched with 092?"

and many more!

When thinking of 092, Qin Tao finally came to his senses.

For a long time, underwater nuclear counterattack has relied on 092. After all, this submarine's performance is outdated. It only solves the problem of whether it has or not. The real underwater nuclear counterattack power still depends on 096!

Although the construction period of 096 has been delayed a lot, the launch is already close at hand. For a submarine, the launch means sea trials. There is no outfitting link. This means that 096 will be put into service soon. .

When 096 enters service, what will 092 do?

The suggestion given by Qin Tao was to convert it into a cruise missile nuclear submarine and continue to use its residual heat. It would be too wasteful to eliminate it directly.

And if it is to be converted into a cruise missile nuclear submarine, the Julang-1 on it will be useless.

In fact, Julang-1 just solves the problem of presence or absence. The range is too close and cannot hit the enemy's territory. What's the point? Even if it can hit the enemy's frontline base, it is of no consequence. Therefore, 096 and Julang-2 The wave- combination is the most strategic cornerstone in the future.

The Julang-1 is already on the verge of being eliminated. Now, dragging the Julang-1 out and shooting it as a target missile will not cause waste. At the same time, it can also test the Julang-1 after more than ten years of use. How intact is it.

At the same time, such a launch is definitely close to actual combat. It is crucial to test the performance of 055 in actual combat.

Damn you Yankees, this damn system is almost all performance in nature, and is a performance based on a known trajectory. It is simply unable to cope with actual combat. We don’t play with fiction, if we want to play, we can play with real things!

"Let's go, what are you waiting for?" Qin Tao was very excited.

"The interception experiment was conducted at night, so we can't rush yet." Xu Zhengyang said, "We will set off when it gets dark."

"Then you can go up and have a look first." Qin Tao couldn't wait.

On the mooring dock, the 055 destroyer was preparing to go to sea. A long missile was hoisted into the launch tube, which gave it a sense of power at first sight.
