Chapter 2428: The authorities take action, and the Li family is in trouble!

The official website of the Taxation Bureau directly posted an announcement claiming that according to Article 213 of the Daxia Foreign Trade Tax Act, Daxia will impose a 100% tariff on all high-tech products under the name of Sansang.

The announcement was very concise, with only this one sentence.

But in the business world, it was like dropping a bombshell!

Before this, Daxia's most severe tax collection on electronic products was Apple mobile phones, and the tariff added was only 10%.

What does a 100% tax rate mean?

For example, a certain mobile phone in Sansang originally sold for 5,000 yuan, and after the tariff was imposed, the price became 10,000 yuan!

In this case, it sells for 5,000 in other countries and 10,000 in Daxia. How could anyone buy it?

Therefore, adding tariffs is the best way to sanction a company or a product.

What the hegemonic country is best at is to unite with various Western countries, as well as the Sakura Country and the Yin-Yang Country to impose tariff sanctions on a certain product or company, thereby building a tariff barrier, so that a certain product can never go overseas and can only be sold in the country.

Which product is most severely sanctioned by tariffs?

Xia Wei mobile phone?

Kirin chip?

no~~~no~~~no~~~

None!

In Chen Mo's impression, the most severely sanctioned by the hegemonic country in the previous life was the Daxia Xiang Sanbengzi!

When the domestic god car Sanbengzi was sanctioned by the hegemonic country, he never thought that he could have a meal at the same table with Xia Wei in this life.

Sanbengzi is actually a kind of electric tricycle. It only costs about 5,000 yuan for a full configuration in China, and only 20,000 or 30,000 yuan for the quality and brand.

But when exported to foreign countries, the minimum starting price is 70,000!

Such a high price can buy an entry-level small foot car, but it still can't stop it from becoming popular overseas.

Especially the "red necks" in the large rural areas in the central and southern parts of the hegemonic country are all scrambling for it.

First of all, let's popularize what red necks are.

This name originated from the Civil War period of the hegemony country. At that time, the necks of poor farmers in the south were sunburned red because of long-term labor under the scorching sun, so it was used by northerners as an offensive name for southerners.

In modern times, redneck has evolved into a general term for the lower-class white people in the south of the hegemony country. The common characteristics of this kind of people are living in rural areas and farms. They are generally poor and backward. They like to drive pickup trucks, wear jeans and flip-flops, wear felt hats, eat big steaks, drink wine, like to play with guns, and often participate in hunting activities. ‌

Rednecks like big pickup trucks the most, preferably large displacement, the kind that smokes.

And the three-wheeled vehicle meets the needs of rednecks except that it is slower and less powerful. The key is that it is very easy to pull goods, even more convenient than a pickup truck.

Therefore, whoever can have a three-wheeled vehicle can become the most beautiful redneck in the village and can receive countless envious eyes.

Even the voice of the three-wheeled vehicle, "Please pay attention when reversing! Please pay attention when reversing!", has become the most mysterious oriental spell in their eyes. Once it is released on the street, it will definitely attract onlookers.

How popular was the three-wheeled vehicle in the previous life?

When global trade was sluggish and the economic growth rate of Western developed countries generally did not exceed 2%, Daxia's three-wheeled vehicles not only achieved reverse export growth, but even the supporting peripheral products became popular.

Red necks who were afraid of cold bought windshields, and those who were afraid of sun went to buy awnings.

The domestic price of these accessories is only about 100 yuan, and it is also about 100 yuan abroad, but the unit has become the hegemonic currency.

A set of windshields can almost be sold for the price of a second-hand three-wheeled vehicle, which is really terrifying.

As a result, three-wheeled vehicle companies and logistics companies that had never thought of doing business with foreigners have taken action and sold three-wheeled vehicles to foreigners directly through international logistics.

The postage of a three-wheeled vehicle may be higher than its selling price. Even so, the rednecks in the hegemony country are still happy to buy it.

When the hegemony country's peers saw it, they thought, how can this be possible?

Our pickup truck costs 30,000 hegemony currency, and your three-wheeled vehicle only costs a few dollars?

Are we going to survive?

So the competitors of the hegemony country reported it to the hegemony country's commerce department.

As a result, the hegemony country's commerce department was really alarmed!

The commerce department directly announced the launch of anti-dumping investigations and sanctions against three-wheeled vehicles, with the reason being: threatening the hegemony country's industrial security.

When Chen Mo saw this reason, he was stunned.

What?

Three-wheeled vehicles threaten the hegemony country's industrial security?

It's so outrageous that my mother opened the door-it's outrageous!

So, three-wheeled vehicles were actually included in the hegemony country's sanctions list along with high-tech products such as Xia Wei, new energy electric vehicles, 5g technology and chips.

In order to make the sanctions sound more justifiable, the official of the hegemony country gave the three-wheeled vehicle a very noble name, "low-speed passenger vehicle".

What's even more outrageous is that the hegemony country's personal transportation vehicle manufacturers alliance also said in the petition: the price of a certain oriental country's low-speed passenger vehicle is too unreasonable. They have official subsidies and specialize in vicious price wars, so they opened up the situation as soon as they entered the Western market, with a dumping rate of up to 477%! ! ! No one buys our cars! ! !

So how unreasonable is the price?

The initial price of the three-wheeled vehicle sold to the hegemony country was 3,000 hegemony currency, which is more than 20,000 yuan.

Not only does it have a good battery life, it can drive 60 kilometers on a single charge, and it can easily carry people and climb hills. It also has no exhaust gas and is very environmentally friendly.

The farmers of the hegemonic country who were used to being exploited had never seen such a good thing before, so they all thought it was too cheap.

I took a look at the export companies in Daxia, and there were actually people who were willing to be taken advantage of!

I had no choice but to comply with the needs of the public, tearfully raise the price, and sell it for 5,000-12,000 national currency.

Unexpectedly, at this price, the Baguo people still broke through.

Because companies in the Hegemony country previously produced similar products and advertised that the cost alone was more than 40,000 Hegemony currency, but you, a big country in the East, only sold them for 10,000?

What do you want the consumers of the hegemonic country to think?

Are you saying that you have a conscience, or are you saying that we have lost our conscience?

Sure enough, consumers rushed to the manufacturers to demand explanations or even return the goods.

But the manufacturers are all capitalists, so it is certainly impossible to give any explanation.

So the Personal Transportation Manufacturers Alliance frantically blamed the manufacturers in Daxia: "The manufacturing cost of such a car cannot be less than 40,000 Baguo coins, but the manufacturers in Daxia only sell it for 10,000 Baguo coins. What does it mean to them?" They are trying to monopolize the market at a loss, this is dumping! There must be a conspiracy behind it, it must be Daxia’s official subsidies that want to destroy our industry!”

They also listed a lot of data.

Most of Daxia's low-speed manned vehicles are exported to Baguo and Ouleng regions, accounting for more than 95% of them. They are of great use in vast farms and plains.

If it is allowed to develop, the overlord and the Western low-speed vehicle industry will all be finished!

As a result, the hegemony officially imposed anti-dumping sanctions, increased tariffs, and raised the tax rate to 100%.

I originally thought that this would at least curb the development trend of Sanbengzi.

But what I didn't expect was...

Increasing tariffs will have almost no impact on the original market of Sanbengzi!

Because the smart Daxia companies have found foreign partners, carried out OEM and replacement of labels, and then sold them to overlords.

This thing is not a mobile phone. If the brand is changed, no one will buy it.

Products with little technical content such as Santengzi can be easily assembled into finished products in Hegemony even if Daxia exports related parts to Hegemony. Some of them have simple structures and can even be made by hand. As long as Hegemony has demand, how can You can buy Daxia’s Sanbengzi.

Therefore, the sanctions of the hegemonic country will only increase the burden on the consumers of the hegemonic country and damage their interests. For the relevant enterprises of the hegemonic country, they will not get better because of the sanctions against Daxia's Sanbengzi. The development of development is a typical example of harming others but not benefiting oneself.

But even so, the Overlord still tries to do it, which shows how worried they are about Daxia's products. Daxia's manufacturing has become something that the Hegemon cannot surpass in more and more fields, while the Hegemon's manufacturing industry is no longer able to surpass it. It is also unable to restore its former glory. Under the situation of ebb and flow, it is no longer possible for the hegemonic country to look at the global market rationally.

Not surprisingly, the "Reverse, please pay attention" reminders will not only disappear in the hegemonic country, but will probably become more and more frequent, because consumers will eventually vote with the currency in their hands.

Santengzi was not affected at all, but mobile phones and digital products were different.

This thing is very replaceable.

In particular, there have been problems with Sansang mobile phones. Many consumers did not want to buy them in the first place. If the price is doubled again, even die-hard fans may have to change brands.

This operation of the Daxia Taxation Department is obviously to drive Sansang out of Daxia and prevent it from making any more money from the people of Daxia!

Li Jianxi received the news while he was still on the private plane.

At that time, he felt like the sky was falling!
