Chapter 1974 Exemption from Inspection

Hai Changchun pouted and said, "Oh, if that's the case, I'm in a difficult situation. You know, Sino-Ocean International Group is in business, not charity. We have put out so much working capital to build the Yangjiang transportation line. If we can't get our money back as soon as possible, I won't be able to explain to the company's shareholders."

"The tolls set by the state are indeed not high, but your local government can also give us some subsidies. In addition to investing in road construction, Sino-Ocean International also has the cost of subsequent maintenance. Money is everything. According to your regulations, if we contract two roads, we may have to pay money every year!"

Liu Fusheng watched his performance with a smile. As expected, Hai Changchun became more and more excited as he spoke: "Secretary Liu, you were in charge of a prefecture-level city in the north before. Are all enterprises in the north treated like this? No wonder the economy there can't develop!"

Hearing what Hai Changchun said, Sun Hai finally couldn't help it. He said in a deep voice: "Chairman Hai, before building the road, the government has strictly calculated it. According to the statistics of traffic volume and freight volume, these two roads will be able to recover all costs in about four years."

"We also hired engineers to help build the road, which greatly saved construction costs. You may be able to make a profit in less than three years. How can you lose money?"

Hai Changchun chuckled, "What Secretary Sun said is just the government's estimate. Your estimate must be based on the most ideal conditions. It is estimated that there will be good weather and no natural or man-made disasters. In addition, Jiyang City will become the manufacturing distribution center and maritime storage center of Chaojiang area. Only in this way can we ensure that the so-called Yangjiang transportation line has sufficient traffic and freight traffic."

"I've been in business for many years. I know that when local governments ask for credit from their superiors or seek media publicity, they have to produce some beautiful paper data. Those data may fool laymen, but there's no need to tell me, right? After all, I'm a person who sincerely wants to invest real money in the construction of my hometown!"

"Secretary Liu, I'm a straightforward person, so I'll be frank. I don't have much confidence in your plan. The economic prospects you mentioned are really too far-reaching. You leaders just talk about the future as soon as you touch your upper lip. But in the end, aren't we the business people who pay the money? The people who suffer may be the people of Chaojiang."

Hai Changchun's words were not only impolite, he was actually scolding Liu Fusheng and Sun Hai to their faces. Under normal circumstances, even a fool would not do such a thing.

Is Hai Changchun stupid? Definitely not!

His confidence comes from the order given by Tang Shaoying - to thoroughly establish a tough image!

If Hai Changchun wants to establish a tough image, he must have a head-on conflict with Liu Fusheng and then let everyone know about it.

Hai Changchun felt that doing so would only benefit him and not harm him, because Tang Shaoying had already guaranteed that the Yangjiang transportation line would only fall into the hands of Ocean International.

In other words, no matter how much he quarreled with Liu Fusheng, Liu Fusheng would have to bow his head and hand the business over to him in the end.

Hai Changchun thought that after this battle, he was able to prove to everyone that in Chaojiang area, he was capable of competing with Liu Fusheng and even defeating him. In the future, in the smuggling trade, making Liu Fusheng bow his head would become his golden body of protection.

Sun Hai was already angry at this time, but there was still no expression on Liu Fusheng's face.

After Hai Changchun stopped, Liu Fusheng sighed and said, "Chairman Hai is right. Officials must shoulder their responsibilities and must not make empty promises without even saying anything."

"As a public servant and a cadre of the state, I always remind myself to be vigilant against being out of touch with the masses and never become the kind of irresponsible cadre that the people see."

"Chairman Hai is worried that the government's calculation of the Yangjiang transportation line is not objective enough. This is reasonable. We can write this clause into the contract. At that time, the municipal government and Chairman Hai will jointly formulate the charging standards... Chairman Hai, are you satisfied?"

The corner of Hai Changchun's mouth twitched slightly. He originally wanted to make things difficult for Liu Fusheng, but Liu Fusheng actually agreed to his unreasonable request. What was going on?

Now that things have come to this, if Hai Changchun still says he is not satisfied, then he would be inconsiderate and would be slapping himself in the face.

He rolled his eyes and said thoughtfully, "Secretary Liu is really generous. Since you said so, I will definitely support your decision. However, in addition to this, I have some other requests."

Sun Hai suppressed his anger and said, "Chairman Hai, enough is enough."

Hai Changchun smiled and said, "Secretary Sun's attitude is not very good. I have already said that the Yangjiang Transportation Line is an enterprise helping the government, contributing money and effort, so it cannot be bullied... Of course, I also heard that you call Secretary Liu your master. It seems that you do have a lot of room for improvement in your ability to control your emotions. You should learn more from Secretary Liu in the future."

At this point, he looked at Liu Fusheng again: "We, Sino-Ocean International, have put out so much money to support the construction of Chaojiang. Shouldn't the governments of the three cities of Chaojiang give our company some relevant tax incentives? For example, exemption from customs inspection? I think my proposal should not be excessive, right?"

This was one of the key points that Hai Changchun wanted to make. He had to use the road construction as an opportunity to give Liu Fusheng and Sun Hai some blood.

He was doing international trade on the surface, but was actually smuggling in secret, so exemption from customs inspection was very important to him.

If he could get the inspection exemption policy and tax benefits, he could carry out smuggling activities openly and take this opportunity to completely erase many of the things he had done before.

Liu Fusheng and Sun Hai, of course, knew exactly what Hai Changchun was planning.

Sun Hai said in a deep voice: "This request is a bit excessive."

Liu Fusheng smiled and waved his hand, saying, "I think these things can be considered."

Hai Changchun said in surprise: "Secretary Liu, you can't lie to me!"

Liu Fusheng smiled and said, "How could I lie to you? Sino-Ocean International is a star enterprise in Jiangtou. Over the years, you have given great support to the government's taxation work. Logically, we should also give some care to Sino-Ocean International."

"What's more, Chairman Hai generously donated money this time to help the three cities of Chaojiang solve their urgent needs. If this happened in ancient times, what you did would be enough to build a memorial archway to commemorate it."

Hai Changchun said in disbelief, "So, Secretary Liu has agreed to both the tax incentives and the exemption from customs inspection?"

Liu Fusheng smiled and said, "I support it in principle, but the scope of exemption and the strength of the preferential treatment still need to be discussed by the Municipal Standing Committee before a decision can be made."

"What I can assure Chairman Hai is that no matter what the research results are, the governments of the three cities of Chaojiang will give you a satisfactory answer. We will never let a company dedicated to serving the people suffer losses."
