"Xin't you, you're back right."

Equipment industry company, Luo Xiangfei saw Feng Xiaochen's face said so.

Feng Xiaochen pretended to be a poor look and said, “Mr. Luo, what I am most afraid of is your words.”In fact, I came back to the company today, mainly to send you a little haze from the northeast, and after sending me back to accompany my daughter to build blocks."

Luo Xiangfei and Feng Xiaochen have been dealing with each other for so many years, where do not know Feng Xiaochen's little flowery intestines, he said with a smile: "It does not affect your vacation, this matter I originally intended to let the king base to deal with, since you came back, go with him to do it."As you know, the king is not convinced by anyone in this company, and he obeys you."

“I really have to thank him for his kindness.”Feng Xiaochen laughed.He was borrowed to the Yubei revitalization working group this time, in principle, said that the work of the equipment company on this side can be insulated, but in the relationship between him and Luo Xiangfei, how can he stand by while when something happens?In addition, before he went to the revitalization working group, Luo Xiangfei had already told him that this time he was asked to go to Yubei to brush his qualifications, and after returning, he would replace Luo Xiangfei as the general manager of the equipment industry company.In other words, the things of the equipment company are Feng Xiaochen's own business, and he has a reason to escape.

"What's the matter, the old king is still uneasy?"

Jokingly, Feng Xiaochen still returned to the topic.

"It is indeed a more troublesome thing, if it is not handled well, the work we have done in the past will be completely lost."In fact, even if you don't come back this time, I'm going to call you and you're coming back."Luo Xiangfei said.

“Such serious?”Feng’s face became serious.

Luo Xiangfei turned over the table, found a document, handed Feng Xiaochen, and said, "You see, things are much more serious than you think."

Feng Xiaochen took the document, only looked at the title, his face sank, and saw that the title was written:

Report on the joint venture between Qinzhou Heavy Machinery Factory and Japan Three Steel.

"Wunting, Qin's business is doing well, why engage in joint ventures with the Japanese!"Feng Xiaochen almost wanted to shoot the table and cursed.

“Look down.”Luo Xiangfei said lightly, obviously, he was also very unhappy about this matter, perhaps before the table, but now it seems more calm.

Feng Xiaochen read the report at a glance, the report was called by the Northwest Provincial Economic and Trade Commission to the National Economic and Trade Commission, roughly means that the Northwest Province in response to the country's opening policy, as soon as possible in line with the international standards, actively carried out large-scale investment and investment promotion work, and has made significant progress.This major development is that Japan's Sanli Steel Institute put forward a requirement for Qin to the northwest province, willing to pay $170 million in exchange for 51% of Qin's shares, and transform Qin into a Sino-Japanese joint venture.

“Isn’t that a robbery?”Feng Xiaochen put down the report and said with hatred, "This report said that the net asset value of Qin's heavy is 1.4 billion yuan, which is equivalent to 160 million US dollars."The Japanese invested 170 million yuan, accounting for 51% of the equity, which seems to be quite fair and reasonable.But Qin Heu is the backbone of the metallurgical equipment that we have spent great efforts to cultivate, and the technical value of these years is more than 100 million US dollars, and there are so many experienced engineers, nearly 10,000 skilled workers, these are intangible assets, how can they not count in it?"

"This problem, Wang Jian has talked to the cadres of the Northwest Provincial Economic and Trade Commission, the other side said that the three companies will also bring their technology and management experience, as well as the three brands, these can also be regarded as intangible assets, so we do not suffer."Luo Xiangfei said.

"San Li is willing to transfer all their core technology to Qin Jiu?"He asked in a sarcastic tone.

Luo Xiangfei sneered, “How is this possible?According to the convention, after the joint venture between foreign-funded enterprises and Chinese enterprises, only the technology that is backward for one generation or even two generations will be brought to China for production, and it is impossible to bring the latest technology, which is a means to protect their core competitiveness.

“Doesn’t it have to?”Feng Xiaochen, Luo Xiangfei said this practice, Feng Xiaochen is of course known, which is also the reason why he does not recognize the so-called Sanli intangible assets.

"Three generations behind the technology, we do not need at all.After years of development, there is no generational difference in the level of technology compared with Sanli, so what do we need to accept their technology behind a generation?"Feng Xiaochen said.

Luo Xiangfei said: "The most important thing is that even if they can come up with more intangible assets for exchange, we can't re-dedicate Qin."Now our metallurgical equipment, that is, Qin Jianhe and Puhai heavy machine two backbone enterprises, if Qin heavy by the Japanese capital holdings, we in the metallurgical equipment, but also to return to the situation of subjection."

Feng Xiaochen said, “Yes, isn’t that clear the truth?”Didn’t the trade committee make it clear to the Northwest Province?”

Luo Xiangfei sighed: "Why not say that Director Li in the committee specifically called the leaders of the northwest province to communicate this matter."But the other side said that the country is now in the process of customs clearance negotiations, the international demand that we must open the market, this kind of joint venture behavior between enterprises, the government should not intervene too much."

Feng Xiaochen couldn't cry and laugh: "My day, they can actually explain from such a height, and they are not afraid to flash their waists."

The so-called resumption of customs refers to the application of China to restore the status of a party to the GATT.The GATT is a multilateral agreement on tariff concessions and international trade rules jointly concluded by dozens of countries after World War II, referred to as the GATT, and China is one of the founding parties.When New China was founded, the status of the country was stolen by the Taiwan authorities and the following year announced its withdrawal from the GATT.In the decades that followed, Taiwan remained in the GATT as an observer, while the Chinese government has been unable to restore its status as a contracting party.

In 1986, China formally applied for the reinstatement of the GATT as a party to the General Agreement on Trade and Security and began lengthy “re-custification” negotiations.During this period, it also experienced a reversal of Sino-US relations in the late 1980s, which led to the deadlock in the resumption of customs negotiations.It was not until early 1993 that the United States resumed negotiations with China.At this time, China's foreign trade has reached a high level, and there is an urgent need for this status of a party to ensure stable trade relations with other countries, which makes the word "re-customs" one of the most popular economic concepts in the world.

Since the GATT is in the hands of Western countries, especially the United States, these countries put forward harsh conditions for China's resumption of customs, including requiring China to formulate a unified trade policy, expand trade freedom, eliminate non-tariff barriers, and promise to implement a market economy.In order to achieve a resumption of customs, China has had to make a large number of concessions and open up some markets in accordance with the requirements of Western countries to show the sincerity of free trade.

However, Feng Xiaochen knew that this marathon-style review negotiations were ultimately unsuccessful.On January 1, 1995, the World Trade Organization was established, and on January 1 of the following year, the GATT was cancelled, and until then, China still failed to restore the status of a party to the GATT, so it had to start from scratch and carry out the same difficult "entry" negotiations.

The resumption of customs and accession to the WTO have objectively helped China to shift from a planning system to a market system, and in order to meet the requirements of the GATT and later the WTO, China has carried out large-scale market-oriented reforms, and has also paid many trade costs.However, when China finally succeeded in "entering the WTO" and mastered the WTO rules, it gradually became the leader in world trade, and "Made in China" swept the European and American markets, forcing these countries to hold up the shield of trade protection, which became the appearance of China.

At this time, China is still in the exploration period of customs clearance, for awe of various international rules, of course, there are some Chinese people to touch the fish, under the banner of supporting the resumption of customs, to sell various national interests.This decision of the Northwest Province, in the end, is due to ignorance and error, or deliberately, Feng Xiaochen is not easy to guess, but one thing he is very clear, that is, whether it is the resumption of the gate or the WTO, must not take the country's pillar industry to do a deal, otherwise what is the meaning of this kind of customs?

“The North West also has their problems.Qin heavy in recent years business situation is not too ideal, can only barely maintain the break-even state, the northwest province is also worried that Qin recipitated the same as the Yubei heavy machine like the mistakes, so want to take advantage of Qin heavy life and vitality, quickly find a buyer to carry out a joint venture.Of course, there are also considerations of performance.”Luo Xiangfei introduced Feng Xiaochen.

“What is the committee’s consideration?”Feng Xiaochen asked.

What he said is “in the committee” and naturally refers to the National Economic and Trade Commission.Qin re-heavy has been assigned to the management of the northwest province, but it is still the backbone enterprise of the National Economic and Trade Commission, and the disposal of Qin Heavy must be nodded by the Economic and Trade Commission.The equipment industry company does not have any affiliation with Qin, but only belongs to the business guidance, so it has no right to interfere in the decision-making of the northwest province.The National Economic and Trade Commission handed this matter to the equipment industry company to deal with, but also hope that the equipment company can have some better way to solve this problem, so that the National Economic and Trade Commission to use administrative means.

Luo Xiangfei said: "The meaning of the committee is the same as us, Qin Heu is the backbone of metallurgical equipment enterprises, absolutely can not be handed over to the Japanese holding."If it is owned by us, the Japanese shareholding, but it is possible.However, from the material in the Northwest Provincial Newspaper, the three steel stations are determined by Qin, and they will certainly not agree to give up the controlling right, while the Northwest Province tends to give up the controlling interest in the sake of retaining the three steelhouses.”
