Chapter 832 Blockbuster
The demonstrators at the Pentagon dispersed quickly, and the Department of Defense was their financial backer. Casper Weinberg deserves to be given credit to everyone, especially at this moment.
No one wants to go to the parade no matter what, because they are forced by life. At this time, the money has been obtained, and the employer has agreed to let them leave, so why not!
Although the two companies, General Motors and Ford, are very reluctant, they also know that demonstrations cannot bring much trouble to the Black Cloud Group, and it is better to wait for the next instructions from the Ministry of Defense.
More than 20 companies participated in the bidding this time, all from the United States. However, the first request of the Department of Defense caught many companies off guard and even made them angry, because nothing like this had ever happened before.
Ian Wright said to representatives of more than 20 automobile companies: "All bidding companies must be headquartered in the United States. The parent company cannot be registered in tax haven islands such as the Cayman Islands, Virgin Islands, and Bermuda."
"Not only that, other branches cannot be registered in the above locations. In other words, the automobile company must not have any connection with the tax haven island, otherwise it will not be able to participate in this bidding."
This was a bombshell that hit many car companies. At the same time, Bao Zixuan was deeply resented. If this guy hadn't talked nonsense at the airport, how could the Ministry of National Defense have issued such a policy.
Many large companies in the United States will register one or more companies in places such as the Virgin Islands for the purpose of reasonably avoiding taxes. If the Department of Defense does this, isn't it going to cut off people and money?
In fact, this is not the scariest thing. Many companies do not need to deal with the government or the military. This gap cannot be opened. If all bidding is done in this way in the future, how can people survive?
Hearing this news, General Motors' Mike Donald was very troubled. General Motors has two branches registered in the Cayman Islands, but the parent company did not dare to transfer out. After all, when General Motors was established, these islands were still in a semi-primitive state.
society.
Judging from the situation, it would be difficult to get orders from the Ministry of Defense without canceling the two companies. He still clearly remembered General Ian Wright's phone call with him last night, and he had made the matter very clear.
This time the president is involved, and the Ministry of National Defense is just following orders. It’s time to take a stand, otherwise the military vehicle order may really become a wedding dress for others.
Before MacDonald could speak, a car company representative said: "General Ian Wright, why were there no regulations on this before? What should we companies do now? It was registered in the Cayman Islands more than ten years ago.
During the Vietnam War, the company also provided high-quality vehicles to the military."
"National policies cannot be changed overnight, otherwise how can we convince the public."
Seeing that someone has already made a splash, everyone is waiting for news. Let's see what the Ministry of Defense's reaction is. Is it just to scare timid enterprises?
Ian Wright smiled and said: "Mr. Wharton, you can leave. That means your company is out. I think what I said is clear enough."
It is very rude to ask people to leave directly. Ian Wright is a good-tempered person, so how he could be so unreasonable is really incomprehensible.
Seeing that Walton wanted to argue after being expelled, Ian Wright said directly: "For military purchase orders, the products must not only have the best performance, but the company must also make a significant contribution to the country.
"
"At least I doubt how good a company that thinks about tax evasion can make its products. Compared with other countries in the world, taxes in the United States are not high. But many people still want to take advantage.
This kind of thinking is unacceptable.”
"Although we are soldiers and don't want to care about economic matters. However, national defense expenditures need tax revenue. You haven't paid taxes, but you have the nerve to come to the bidding meeting."
"At least you can't pass the Department of Defense, even if you report it to the President. The United States and the Soviet Union need to compete on all fronts, and defense spending requires a lot of money. You are all elites of the United States. You must not trust the country.
Hind legs.”
Hearing Ian Wright speak so straightforwardly, everyone present felt that he was serious this time. Unexpectedly, it was not the tax department that took action first, but the military procurement issue.
In fact, this is normal. It is impossible to beat all companies to death with one stick. If all companies in the United States are targeted at once, one bad move will bring serious consequences. Being able to go to the Virgin Islands and other places to register companies is not a simple matter.
. Even as the president of the United States, he would not dare to offend people to death at once.
Every presidential election requires huge financial support. Reagan still wants to make a difference and will definitely seek re-election. For these super-rich people, they can't do much yet.
Fortunately, Reagan was an actor and Hollywood was very supportive. Otherwise, even the military might not have dared to make such aggressive purchases. After all, it represented a political signal.
It's a sign that the White House wants to get some businesses to change their attitudes, at least regarding taxes.
MacDonald stood up and said: "Gentlemen, General Ian Wright is right. There are too many companies in the United States registered in the Virgin Islands and other places; everyone is smart, and they all know why without me saying more.
.”
"But our main market is in the United States, and we are all Americans. It is impossible not to contribute to the country at all and have the country pay for you unconditionally."
"General Motors also had a registered company in the Cayman Islands before. This is a shame for the company and a shame for all GM employees. We must remember this day because General Motors will cancel two offshore companies."
"General Motors will never harm the overall national tax revenue for a small profit."
MacDonald's statement let other company representatives know. This guy must have received the news in advance, otherwise it would be impossible to say so high-sounding. It seems that General Motors is bound to win the military vehicle order, otherwise MacDonald would never dare to do this
Express his position. The board of directors will definitely not let him go if he doesn't get the order. It can be said that he will be successful if he doesn't succeed.
Henry Ford II said with a smile: "Ford Motors has always been committed to the development of the United States and has not yet registered a company in the Cayman Islands and other places."
"So there is no problem as General Ian Wright said. The state provides protection for companies, and it is normal for us to pay taxes to the state. Ford has never thought about tax avoidance since the day it was founded."
Ford considers himself an American automobile aristocrat, but he has never registered any company on a tax haven island. That's why Ford II dared to make such a statement. His words made everyone present both hate and admire him.
What I hate is that this old guy is a fed man and doesn’t know that a hungry man is hungry. Ford has a long history and a rich family background; to put it bluntly, it means it is rich. Other companies are not so profitable. Who doesn’t want to save taxes if they can save them? Now Henry Ford II
Shi actually said that, isn't this embarrassing for everyone!
I admire it because I feel that Ford is indeed a symbol of American cars and can really take the lead. Reasonable tax avoidance is not used. Ford is indeed a responsible company.
Ian Wright did not expect that the Ford family would be so powerful. It seemed that they had really underestimated them before. So he said: "Ford Motors is indeed the pride of the American automobile industry. Ford Motors directly entered the second round of bidding."
"As for other companies, if they have no relationship or involvement with tax haven islands, they can submit information to the Ministry of National Defense and enter the second round of bidding."
"But I have to make it clear to you first. If there is any involvement, insisting that it is not involved means that the US military is not taken seriously. Not only will the bidding qualifications be directly disqualified, but it will also be blacklisted by the Ministry of Defense and will not be able to participate in the future.
to the bidding business for defense orders.”
"If we still have companies registered in the Cayman Islands and other places, we hope to complete the process within three days. The Ministry of National Defense will launch the second round of bidding in three days. Don't even be qualified to enter by then."
Although three days is a short time, for these large enterprises, it is definitely enough to cancel the company in the Cayman Islands. As long as the management expenses are paid, other tax haven islands will not care at all.
Everyone at the scene knew that if you want to accept orders from the Ministry of Defense, you must do what General Ian Wright said. Otherwise, you can say goodbye to the Ministry of Defense in the future, because they will never give you a chance.
We all have to face the choice of whether it is worthwhile to cancel the company in the Cayman Islands. If we do not get orders from the Ministry of Defense, we will be very passive in the future. But fortunately, no one is stupid enough to really want to deceive the military. After all, they can be charged with this crime.
Can't afford it.
Moreover, the military is followed by the CIA, and few people can deceive the world's most famous intelligence organization.
