Reborn Russia as an oligarch

Chapter 698

Fickrov's "Program for Increasing the Population's Fertility Rate" was passed at the Duma Congress.

However, there is still a big problem in order to implement it.

That is the various subsidies and support inside, but a lot of money is involved. Where will the money come from?

Fikrov may not consider money matters, but Wang Ye and Gryzlov, the speakers, must.

A policy without sufficient funds to support it is a dead letter and will not have any effect at all.

To this end, Gryzlov convened several deputy speakers and held a small meeting to discuss where to squeeze out enough money to implement this plan to promote population fertility.

"I had someone calculate it. If the various policies in the plan are to be implemented in a down-to-earth manner, it is estimated that one billion dollars will be needed every year. If the effect is good, it will increase incrementally. This is not a small amount of money. It is difficult to start from It comes out of the state budget."

Gryzlov spread his hands and said helplessly.

As a national policy maker, at least a participant in decision-making, there are many policies that are obviously beneficial to the country and the people, but they are difficult to introduce and even more difficult to implement.

Is it because they don't want to?

No, it's just because there is no money in hand!
It's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice.

If possible, which country does not want to implement universal welfare, it is best to cover everything from birth to death!
It is a pity that there are not many countries in the world that have the ability to implement this kind of welfare policy.

As strong as an old beauty, as rich as a small book, there is no way to do it!
That is to say, there are several small countries in Northern Europe. Because of their pitifully small population, they can implement this kind of welfare policy to a limited extent.

A large country with a large population may be able to implement universal welfare in one aspect, but if you want to implement comprehensive welfare, no matter how rich the country is, it can bankrupt you.

This time, it was because Wang Ye and Gryzlov saw the long-term harm of the population crisis to the country, so they bit the bullet and pushed for such a welfare policy.

But I still have to worry about where to get money from.

…………

Several deputy speakers looked at me and I looked at you, but everyone was speechless.

In the end, everyone unanimously turned their attention to Wang Ye.

If it is about spending money, everyone here is a master!
But when it comes to earning money, there is no doubt that it must be Mikhail...

Therefore, everyone is now counting on Wang Ye to come up with a way to make money. If he can't figure it out, then don't come up with this plan, and let it go as soon as possible.

Seeing everyone staring at him, Wang Ye smiled helplessly, of course he knew what everyone meant.

But this proposal was made by people from his own faction, and it has been approved by him, so there is no way, he must endorse this proposal.

In fact, regarding the source of funds, Wang Ye has already considered it, and has a relatively mature and reasonable plan.

The reason why he didn't take it out in advance is of course his own considerations...

He frowned in embarrassment, rubbed his face with his hands, and said after a long time: "A billion dollars..., this is a huge sum of money! Is the amount correct? Do you need so much? "

Gryzlov nodded bluntly, and replied: "This is calculated by a group of professionals in the finance department. To achieve the expected effect, one billion dollars is the least. Of course, if there are more funds, That's even better."

Wang Ye pondered for a moment, as if he was thinking about how to solve this problem.

Just when Gryzlov was waiting impatiently and wanted to urge him, Wang Ye slapped the table, which startled Gryzlov.

"Yes! We have to change our thinking to solve this problem. We can't focus on the small budget. Otherwise, we will tear down the east wall to make up for the west wall. If there is money here, then other places will be stretched." Wang Ye said.

Gryzlov said dumbfoundedly: "Everyone understands the truth, but if you want to earn this money from a new place, everyone has no idea. Don't you just wait for your idea now?"

"What are the most profitable industries in our country?" Wang Ye asked, staring at Gryzlov with piercing eyes.

Gryzlov tentatively replied: "Oil?"

Wang Ye nodded and continued to ask: "What else?"

"Natural gas? Finance? Communications... gone!" Gryzlov counted on his fingers for a long time, and only three industries were named.

Among them, oil and natural gas are still energy industries. After all, the industries that Russia can take advantage of are currently the two major industries of energy and finance.

Among them, finance only dominates domestically, and has little influence internationally.

Wang Ye smiled, "That's right, of course the most profitable monopoly industries will pay for this kind of thing!
Their wealth is taken from the people, and it must be used for the people. When the enterprise grows bigger, it must not forget its sense of social responsibility.

This is what I have been emphasizing within the company since I became the chairman of Yukos Group.

To this end, the Yukos Group spends a sum of money every year to fund education in remote areas.

Do other energy and financial communication giants also have to bear corresponding responsibilities and contribute to the country's population growth? "

Wang Ye's words made the meeting room quiet.

What he said was very reasonable, and everyone had nothing to question.

However, if you want those energy oligarchs, financial oligarchs, and communication giants to subsidize the national finances, are they willing...

In the final analysis, these speakers and those oligarchy companies are also inextricably linked in private.

They must be unwilling to let them come forward to be this "wicked person", so they simply bowed their heads and remained silent.

Others can pretend not to hear, but not Gryzlov, he is the supporter of the meeting.

And he also very much hopes that this population proposal can be introduced and implemented smoothly.

Grinning, Gryzlov said in embarrassment: "Then what... name do we use to collect this money?"

"Let's levy a separate tax, and indicate that this tax is only for the top three companies in the three major industries of energy, finance, and communications! Let them take out a sum of money in proportion to their revenue, and use it for special purposes. Support the implementation of the population proposal." Wang Ye replied without hesitation.

It is not difficult to introduce a new tax law, and it is only aimed at a few leading monopolistic enterprises. The Duma has this power.

However, it will be very difficult for this tax law to be successfully passed in the Duma and implemented.

As I said earlier, most of the more than 400 Duma deputies have various relationships with these giant companies. At critical moments, they want to speak for those giant companies!
