Chapter 319 No! Who he thinks he is!
The National Day holiday is about to take place, and this damn beautiful country has come up with this trick.
Tariffs were raised from 5% to 15%.
It actually increased by 10%!
And it is aimed at Xinghai Group.
Import tariffs are divided into most-favored-nation tax rates, agreement tax rates, preferential tax rates, ordinary tax rates, etc. according to different countries and commodities. In the final analysis, it depends on the relationship between the two countries. If the relationship is not good, the tax rate will be higher, or it depends on the special agreement.
Of course, the tariff rates are different for different goods, and the tax rates are also different at different time periods.
Generally speaking, the ad valorem import tariff amount = CIF price × import ad valorem tariff rate;
CIF price = FOB price, insurance, shipping fee, etc.
There are many tax rates that are "Free" (tax-free). Most of the tax-free goods are urgently needed by beautiful countries.
Unnecessary goods must be protected by domestic companies, thus imposing high tariffs on various countries.
Ultimately, tariffs are trade protectionism.
Mu Yang can guess why the beautiful country raised tariffs, probably for the following two reasons.
The first point is hegemonic status.
There is no doubt that Xinghai Group's technological offensive has posed an unprecedented challenge to companies related to the beautiful country. In addition, this country's original risk to our country has been unprecedentedly high.
Since the 19th century, the beautiful country has been a world leader in innovation and technology.
Xinghai Group's technological leadership will make the beautiful country lose the power to impose sanctions!
From a national security perspective, if America's industries depend on China's technology, China will have the ability to cut off the links between countries and the technologies and equipment their consumers and industries rely on, which is something we don't want to see.
of.
The second point is interests.
No matter which industry it is in, high-end manufacturing is the most profitable part, and it is also the part with the strongest technology monopoly. Previously, the beautiful country basically controlled the most high-end technology in all fields, allowing people from all over the world to work for them. Now Xinghai Group has torn the gap.
It has occupied the high ground of laser welding, arc welding machines, aluminum alloy automobile plates, etc.
Moreover, these fields are very important to national security. According to Mu Yang's classification, they should be quasi-strategic technologies and the basic technologies of strategic-level technologies.
The beautiful country is a superpower. They are accustomed to being the first in all fields. When Xinghai Group seized the high ground of their industry, they were as angry as a lion whose territory was seized.
The most popular product of Xinghai Group sold to the beautiful country, in terms of turnover, is still handheld laser welding equipment. It is in a monopoly position and has no competitors at all in beautiful countries;
The second is the secondary protection welding machine. Xinghai Group’s domestic price is not high, 500US2 sells for 17,000 yuan.
The FOB price to Meiliguo is US$4,500, equivalent to 30,600 yuan, which is very expensive. The terminal price in Meiliguo reaches US$7,350, but it is still favored by customers and directly affects the arc welding machine market in Meiliguo.
The prices of aluminum alloy automobile plates at home and abroad are not much different, and Xinghai Group does not make much money from exports.
Beautiful Country has not completely sanctioned Xinghai Group, but has only imposed targeted tariffs.
However, Mu Yang believed that there would come a day when he would not dare to go abroad.
In the future, all new products of Xinghai Group and its supply chain will no longer be able to use any equipment, software, or technology from the beautiful country.
…
If it is actually implemented, Xinghai Group’s new products will not only be unable to contain any screws using Nii Nii’s technology, but even the chip design software will no longer be able to use Nii Nii’s technology;
What’s even more overbearing is that not only Xinghai Group cannot use these beautiful Chinese equipment, software and technologies, but also the upstream suppliers of parts and components used in Xinghai Group’s equipment cannot be used.
Even high tariffs of more than 100% are levied on monopoly products such as handheld laser welding equipment.
So how should Xinghai Group respond?
One company against the entire Western world?
Unrealistic!
Even if Mu Yang can cheat, he knows that it is impossible at least for now!
What Xinghai Group can do is not to lower prices and sell at the original FOB price. If the CIF price reaches a good price, it will definitely be much higher, which will affect Xinghai Group's exports.
If the sales volume remains unchanged, Xinghai Group will still make the same amount of money, and it will be the customers of Meiliguo who will suffer in the end.
Maintaining the status quo!
This is Muyang’s strategy and the recommendation of the strategy department.
Maybe one day, Mu Yang will have the confidence to shout, "Do you want love or not? I won't sell it yet!"
Or even "Want to buy? No way, we won't sell!"
Now the company needs to develop, there is no need to struggle with money.
If you have trouble with money, you are being angry with yourself, which is unnecessary.
Make more money and you will have the confidence to fight against beautiful countries in the future.
Therefore, Mu Yang did not express "protest" or "condemn", it was useless.
If you want to do it, do it directly without giving the other party a chance to resist.
October 3rd,
Xinghai Group has an "important" guest.
The identity of this guest is very impressive. He is Roach, the chief economist of Mogul Stanley.
Maybe the public doesn't know Roach, but Morgan Stanley should have heard of it. Commonly known as "Mogul Morgan" in the financial world, it is an international financial services company founded in New York, NY. It manages more than 10,000 private client assets globally.
100 million U.S. dollars, only Rui YIN can match it.
Luo Qi came to China to visit the presidents or bosses of many Internet companies. This time he asked to visit Mu Yang, whether in passing or specifically.
However, Mu Yang refused!
Yes, Mu Yang directly refused to visit and disappeared!
Mu Yang asked Zhang Xiaofeng to meet Luo Qi. Luo Qi could not see Mu Yang, and he could not even enter the headquarters base. He only met Zhang Xiaofeng, a non-important person in the old company. In less than five minutes at Xinghai Group, Luo Qi
He left Xinghai Group angrily.
Luo Qi came to Xinghai Group with great fanfare. Media reporters asked about this matter to see if Xinghai Group had cooperated with Mogul Stanley.
If there is really cooperation, Xinghai Group may take off internationally.
However, reporters from many media squatting outside Xinghai Group only came out after seeing Luo Qi for a while.
Did the two sides cooperate successfully or did they not cooperate?
Coming out so quickly?
This visit aroused dissatisfaction with Luo Qi. When he saw reporters waiting outside, he faced the reporters angrily and said bluntly: "I didn't meet Mu Yang. He let me go. What he refused was the two trillion yuan offer."
investment group!
He is too young and too arrogant. One day, he will realize his mistake!"
The fact that Roach, chief economist of Morgan Stanley, was rejected from visiting Mu Yang was quickly revealed to the media by reporters.
…
Less than half an hour after Roach left, the media reported the matter.
Regarding this matter, some domestic economists commented: "Mu Yang should entertain him personally instead of asking a vice president to entertain him. In any case, even if cooperation fails, you can come and see him below. We are a country of etiquette.
"
"If Xinghai Group cooperates with financing, with its terrifying profit margins, multiple core technologies and product market shares, it will be very easy to become a listed company worth hundreds of billions or even trillions as long as it goes public.
It's just that Mu Yang is a little arrogant and unwilling to cooperate. Of course, he has the right to refuse to cooperate, but the other party is also a big shot, so it is right to meet him. "
Mu Yang didn't know this either. In the evening, the company's public relations department kept collecting media information and called him to explain the situation. Only then did Mu Yang realize that he had been criticized by Luo Qi.
Mu Yang didn't receive Luo Qi in person because he was on vacation and didn't have time, but because he had to express his position. If he really cooperated with Mogan Stanley, he would be leaning towards the beautiful country.
Mu Yang knows very well what the nature of Magen Stanley is, and the bosses above also know very well that it is not an ordinary consortium.
Moreover, the two parties have no cooperation in the first place, and Mu Yang does not want to be too deeply involved with Mogen Stanley. His roots are in China.
Mu Yang expressed his opinion lightly on Weibo: "Luo Qi is not a customer of Xinghai Group. We have no business dealings, why should I meet him?
As for what he said about letting him go, I refused to disappear. If he insists on coming, why should he blame me?
No matter how small the customer is, I will meet him. Besides, Luo Qi is leading a team to acquire Xinghai Group!
Xinghai Group is not for sale and will not allow foreign investors to invest in it.
Of course, if it needs to be listed, Xinghai Group will separate the listed businesses and then list them, but Xinghai Group will not go public."
"I'm in the business, not trying to make money by going public.
Morgan Stanley is rich, but it has nothing to do with me, and Xinghai Group is not short of money!"
Not long after Mu Yang posted the two posts on Weibo, netizens started talking a lot, expressing their opinions, and the response was strong.
Many netizens were unaware of Luo Qi's visit and thought that Mu Yang was really arrogant and refused to visit him. It turned out that there was a reason why he was not allowed to visit him. Mu Yang's statement was that he clearly stood on the side of the country and disdained cooperation with Western capitalism.
Luo Qi, who had not yet left China, also knew Mu Yang's answer, which made him even more angry, but there was nothing he could do. He just didn't want to cooperate, so why should he bite him?
What's more, Xinghai Group is a Chinese enterprise, and Morgan Stanley can't stretch its hand that far.
Mu Yang's answer was so domineering that it made this beautiful country capitalist speechless. He didn't expect that he was not even qualified to meet Mu Yang with two trillion US dollars.
In fact, some netizens pointedly pointed out the visit of the Meiliguo consortium: This is a weasel paying New Year greetings to a chicken. Meiliguo has always been like this, pretending to invest, but in fact it is to destroy or annex other people's companies.
"I think I'm awesome and can meet whoever I want. I'm going to get slapped in the face this time, you foreigner!"
"Mu Yang: Who do you think you are! - Mr. Mu is so domineering. You stand up to him. He wants to acquire my company and he also wants to receive you. What a beautiful idea!"
…
"If he were an ordinary entrepreneur, he would probably be on his knees and do nothing to others. He would not have the dignity of an entrepreneur from a big country."
“Professor Mu’s vision and approach are worthy of everyone to learn from!”
"Hey, everyone's replies also reflect the sorrow of Chinese enterprises. When will they be able to rise like Xinghai Group and let outsiders take a high look."
"Industry will rejuvenate the country, and things like going public to make money have nothing to do with me! Praise Mr. Mu for taking responsibility for a big country!"
"Xinghai Group is not short of money! It is domineering and heroic. The employees who can work at Xinghai Group are so happy."
Mu Yang already has 30 to 40 million Weibo fans, which is no worse than the popularity of ordinary first-line celebrities.
The two Weibo posts quickly received more than 100,000 likes.
It has also been crazy forwarded by other websites, and netizens’ comments are also popular.
Compared with Muyang's Weibo fan comments, some of the forum comments reported by the media are also shady. They are not optimistic about Xinghai Group and are worried about Muyang.
Some netizens feel that Mu Yang is still too young and really arrogant, so they still support meeting him, even if they know that the other party wants to acquire their company.
However, this kind of comment was still criticized by fans who supported Mu Yang: "Knowing that someone is going to acquire your company, you kneel down and lick it, you don't even have dignity!
You know clearly that someone is going to kill you, but you still greet him with a playful smile and your head down. There must be something wrong with your brain."
During the National Day holiday, Mu Yang not only refreshed his reading experience, but also read the comments of netizens.
Muyang is not a noob, and many of his listings in a beautiful country are just a trap.
The United States has launched a proposal that requires Chinese companies listed in the United States to comply with their audit requirements, otherwise these companies will be forced to delist.
As soon as this proposal came out, Chinese concept stocks suffered a collective setback.
After all, we are decades late when it comes to economics. Once it is listed, the giants in beautiful countries may lose all their bones.
At that time, he did not insist on waiting until Nayuki was listed. It would have been too idealistic to wait until Nayuki was listed and then cash out. It would take too long and there would be too many variables.
Naixue was listed on Nasdaq last year, and its market value is indeed twice as high as when he sold it.
But so what, now that the new milk tea competition is fierce, Nai Xue's stock price has fallen. Fortunately, he had the foresight, otherwise, he wouldn't be able to make so much money.
Maybe the audit requirement from the beautiful country is nothing, but asking Chinese companies to give each other Chinese customer data is a bit excessive!
Otherwise, listing is not allowed!
But there are some senior executives who want to go public and are willing to give it. As long as the money is collected from the listing, providing national information is nothing. In the eyes of these people, national security is nothing.
Some entrepreneurs also agreed with Mu Yang's comments.
For example, Mr. Ren from Warwick commented: "If young people are responsible, there is no need to worry about the country not being strong!"
It’s just 16 words, and the review is very high.
The entrepreneur that Mu Yang admires the most is Mr. Ren. He still remembers what Mr. Ren said: I am not a hero at all, and I never want to be a hero; but I love this country and hope that this country will be prosperous and strong. Don’t let it happen again.
People were bullied!
Mr. Ren is right, Mu Yang doesn't know if Mr. Ren has said this before.
Mu Yang saw Mr. Ren's evaluation of him, thought about it, and posted a comment on Weibo:
"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Ren, I am learning from Mr. Ren.
If each of us and our entrepreneurs have the spirit of Mr. Ren, why worry about not having Huaguoxin, why worry about our own industrial system not being huge, and why not worry about the country not being strong!”
Maybe Xinghai Group's revenue is not as good as that of Warwick Corporation, which is estimated to reach 200 billion yuan, but its profit this year is definitely higher than that of Warwick Corporation.
There is nothing wrong with Mu Yang learning from Mr. Ren in a low profile.
Chapter completed!
