Chapter 116: Misunderstandings of Chinese People

Unlike Chinese people, in the eyes of foreigners, if they put forward practical suggestions, they should gain something. Especially now, when Fang Mingyuan is not yet a shareholder of Nokia Group, this point cannot be ignored.

Some people may say: "Fang Mingyuan just put forward a simple suggestion to change his shell. Is there any need to formally discuss how to reward him?"

This is like the long-circulated story. The engineer drew a line on the machine that was not working properly, then disassembled it, removed the two coils, and the machine returned to normal. The engineer asked for a thousand dollars in compensation, and some people were certainly not convinced.

, I think it’s possible to charge such a high fee for just marking a lane. And what’s the engineer’s answer?

"Draw a line, it's not even worth a dollar, but knowing where to draw it is worth nine hundred and ninety-nine dollars!" Although changing the shell is simple, if no one comes to pierce this layer of paper, the Nokia Group will also

I don’t know how long it will take to think of it. Therefore, the directors on the Nokia board of directors did not raise any objections to Orillia’s proposal.

In the end, the Nokia Group agreed that if the shell replacement has achieved a good response in markets around the world, the Nokia Group's new mobile phone case business will be handed over to Fang Mingyuan for procurement. In addition, the Carrefour Group will give a certain amount of money when purchasing mobile phones.

Extra offer!

Fang Mingyuan was very happy in his heart. This deal seemed not high, but Fang Mingyuan knew that in the future, the mobile phone case market would also be extremely hot, and until ten years later, the mobile phone case market would still be able to make stable profits.

.Although this amount of money is nothing to his net worth, it can bring a lot of employment opportunities to the country.

The last issue is whether Nokia and Fang will cooperate to build a factory in China.

Regarding this point, in fact, as early as half a year before Fan Mingyuan came to Finland, the Fang family had formally proposed it to the Nokia Group. However, the Nokia board of directors was very cautious about this issue, and no formal result was discussed until Fan Mingyuan arrived in Finland.

.

Oscar also discussed this issue with Fang Mingyuan in the morning. What surprised Fang Mingyuan was that the reason why Nokia Group was so slow to make a decision was that Nokia Group had doubts about the seriousness and stability of China's tax policy.

As a well-known mobile phone manufacturing company, Nokia Group is also very popular in the country. Many local governments have extended an olive branch to Nokia Group, hoping that Nokia Group can set up factories to produce mobile phones locally. And the conditions offered are naturally

It is extremely lucrative. Not only did it get the green light for land approval, but it also continued to receive a large number of tax exemptions and fees on the basis of national regulations. This made the members of the Nokia Group's board of directors a little uneasy.

After all, companies prefer to face the rule of law and a stable tax environment, rather than a tax environment that can be distorted at will. Because today the government of this country can provide low-tax treatment to foreign-funded enterprises, then tomorrow, it will also

They can charge you high taxes! Rather than doing this, it would be better for those countries with stable taxation to quantifiably estimate future benefits.

"Fang, your government obviously doesn't realize that your country's huge market and large number of cheap labor are what companies around the world are most concerned about! As long as the benefits are enough, they will flock to you no matter how much tax you impose.

Come. Without enough safe profit income, even if your country is tax-free, I’m afraid no one would be willing to go there!” Orilla also cited some examples to prove his point.

Fang Mingyuan deeply agrees with Orila's conclusion. In his previous life, he had heard similar remarks. Some foreign economists have talked about this phenomenon. According to their large amounts of statistical data,

, in China, when enterprises are in the tax preferential period, the tax burden is indeed very low; but when the preferential period ends, the tax burden borne by the enterprise is even lower. The reason for this is that these enterprises can completely

Unreasonable pricing between periods of time, transferring income between high taxes and low taxes. This just shows that the tax preferential policies for one place and one time are not the most important thing to these foreign enterprises. It is the natural most important thing.

Well, it does not and will not hinder their choice.

Instead of working hard on tax incentives, China's tax department should invest more energy in improving its own work efficiency, reducing various unreasonable charges, and providing more complete and high-speed services to enterprises. And local governments at all levels do not want to think about this.

Instead of using tax treatment as a bargaining chip, we must formulate correct investment strategies and study the investment psychology of foreign companies to attract investment more effectively. And we must try our best to eliminate unfair profit transfers between related enterprises. Otherwise, it will only

This makes the appetite of these foreign companies even more greedy.

In the end, in addition to solving the employment problem for some people, the local government did not achieve a significant increase in tax revenue. On the contrary, it may result in more losses than gains due to environmental pollution and other issues.

At the meeting, Fang Mingyuan focused on elaborating on Qinxi Province's investment promotion policies, the main one being Fengyuan City.

He listed several major advantages of investing in Qinxi Province.

First, Fengyuan City in Qinxi Province is a transportation hub in the central and western regions of China. It is very convenient for roads, aviation, and railways, and there is the Eurasian Railway. Whether it is transported east to the sea or west

It is more convenient to enter Europe through Central Asia with Qinxi Province as the center and radiating throughout China.

Secondly, Qinxi Province has seen a large number of Hong Kong companies settle in Qinxi Province in recent years, which shows that the local government's investment promotion work is still in place.

Third, the southeastern coastal areas of China are where foreign companies gather. Compared with the original price, labor prices have greatly improved. And with the economic development in this area, labor prices, as well as the various costs of enterprise operation, have also increased.

, a rising tide will definitely lift all boats, and it may not take many years for many companies to face the problem of migrating westward.

Fourth, Fengyuan City in Qinxi Province is a city with concentrated university resources in China. Its number of universities is second only to Beijing and Shanghai. This can ensure that companies can recruit enough high-quality talents locally. And the same level

In the southeast coastal areas, their salaries are 50% higher than those in Qinxi Province, or even more!

Fifth, Qinxi Province already has many factories in the electronics industry and a large number of skilled workers. These people only need simple training to fully meet the requirements of the Nokia production line. This alone can provide

Enterprises save a lot of training costs for new workers. And they don’t have to worry about not being able to recruit enough workers in a short period of time once they expand production capacity.

Sixth, Qinxi Province is the base of the Fang family’s rise in China. To this day, the Fang family still has a large number of industries in Qinxi Province. The Fang family has an extremely good cooperative relationship and reputation with the local government. If we talk about Nokia Group and the Fang family,

A joint venture company has settled in Qinxi Province, and the care it receives in all aspects is unmatched by other provinces.

The six suggestions put forward by Fang Mingyuan immediately aroused the interest of many directors on the Nokia board of directors.

"Dear directors, the advantages listed by Fang do exist. And as far as I know, Fang hasn't said it all yet." Orila smiled, "Now there is a Huaxia Railway under Fang's name.

The Ministry of Railways’ reform pilot railway line runs from his hometown to Fengyuan and connects to the Eurasian Continental Bridge. And I also know that Fang has a very close personal friendship with Mr. Su Huandong, the Minister of Railways of China, so I think that in the railway

In terms of transportation, we will naturally take advantage of it. Moreover, Fengyuan City in Qinxi Province is currently building an expressway leading to the southeastern coastal areas, and Fang also has a stake in it. I think that by then, the expressway will be used for transportation.

We also have an advantage over other companies in this area! God, Fang, the industry under your name is too complicated, isn't it?" The directors couldn't help but laugh.

"Yoma, I think you have said a little less. I also have a cooperative relationship with Japan's Sega Co., Ltd., one of the three major game console manufacturers in Japan. Their branch factory in China is located in Fengyuan.

City, hundreds of thousands of game console products are now exported to foreign countries every year! I think, from a certain perspective, this can also prove the investment environment of Fengyuan City, Qinxi Province!" Fang Mingyuan's data is of course

This is a slight exaggeration. However, after the third phase expansion project of Deguang Electronics Factory is completed by the end of the year, this output will indeed be no problem.

The directors of Nokia Group couldn't help but get even more excited. Compared with the Hong Kong companies that Fang Mingyuan just mentioned, Sega Corporation is more familiar to these directors. And although Sega Corporation is not in the same industry as Nokia Group,

But they all belong to the electronics industry. Sega Co., Ltd. was able to land in Fengyuan City, Qinxi Province and put it into production smoothly. The production capacity is still so considerable. This also shows that the investment environment in Fengyuan City, Qinxi Province must be good. Otherwise,

If so, given the Japanese's meticulous calculation of costs, it would be absolutely impossible for them to set up a branch factory in Fengyuan.

This undoubtedly adds a heavy weight to Fang Mingyuan's invitation.

Orillia looked at Fang Mingyuan talking eloquently among the directors and felt quite emotional. From the beginning, Orillia was not worried about whether Fang Mingyuan could convince these directors. After all, a few years ago, Orillia

Fang Mingyuan, who was still a high school student at the time, had already convinced himself, who had always been considered stubborn by many directors on the board of directors!

Orila believes that the cooperation between the Fang family and the Nokia Group will definitely enable the Nokia Group to reap rich fruits in the future!
