Hearing what Liu Fei said, Wang Chenglin's eyes flashed, and he said with a bit of excitement in his voice: "Okay, we will do as Secretary Liu wants. Now, it is time for us to make our Haiming City voice heard."
Just when the United States, the European Union and Japan announced direct sanctions on major companies in Haiming City, Haiming City immediately held a press conference an hour later. At the press conference, Liu Fei and Wang Chenglin once again
Appearing at the same time, Liu Fei made a strong announcement at the meeting: "Dear friends from the press, friends from as far away as the United States, the European Union, and Japan, because the United States, the European Union, and Japan have unilaterally adopted trade sanctions, violating the WTO
The relevant regulations, for this reason, our Haiming City will take strong retaliatory measures. From now on, we will conduct anti-dumping investigations on automobiles, electronics, and daily chemical products originating in the United States. If it is confirmed that there is anti-dumping behavior, we will
Haiming City will impose a 300% tariff on these products. At the same time, given that a certain American consortium has a serious hostile attitude towards our Haiming City and is trying its best to disrupt the overall stability of our Haiming City, all of this consortium’s
We will take strict review measures for investment and trade in our Haiming City. If any illegal behavior is found, severe sanctions will be imposed. At the same time, anti-dumping will be implemented for agricultural products, wine, fashion and other products originating from France in the EU.
Investigation, anti-dumping investigation will be carried out on automobiles, electronics, milk powder and other products originating in Japan. Once verified, our Haiming City will impose a 300% tariff on these products. At the same time, for France's Rocafour and Japan's Meishi Foundation,
All our enterprises in Haiming City will conduct strict inspections."
After Liu Fei finished speaking, the entire news media world was shocked again. No one expected that Haiming City had gone against the previous policy of compromise and stability, and instead took extremely tough, resolute and powerful actions against these countries.
At the same time, just after the press conference held by Haiming City, at the press conference held by the Chinese Commerce Department, when answering reporters’ questions, the spokesperson said that Haiming City
Although the spokesperson did not say much, the spokesperson said: "The attitude of Haiming City represents the attitude of our commercial department" which directly made his position clear.
What is most incredible to many politicians in the United States, the European Union and Japan is that the speed of Haiming City's investigation and various measures this time exceeded their imagination.
Just two days later, Haiming City struck hard and severely investigated and punished the illegal financial activities of five financial institutions in Haiming City, including the American Morgan Consortium, the French Rocafour Consortium, and the Japanese Akashi Consortium.
, directly revoked the business licenses of these five financial institutions in Haiming City's financial market, and imposed severe penalties. At the same time, the illegal business activities and tax evasion of other companies invested by these three major consortiums were also
Severe investigation and punishment was given. At the same time, a large number of division-level and department-level officials were directly punished by the Haiming City Discipline Inspection Commission for being involved in many insider transactions. At the same time, many officials from the United States, the European Union, and Japan were punished.
The industry's anti-dumping investigation is also being vigorously promoted. In this anti-dumping investigation, Haiming City cooperated with the commerce department and its work efficiency was so high that foreigners raised eyebrows.
It has to be said that Haiming City's strong countermeasures were far beyond the expectations of many politicians in the United States, the European Union and Japan. None of them expected that Haiming City would actually focus on peace as China had always maintained before. The strategy of all-out development is very different, but it adopts strong countermeasures, which makes many foreign politicians very uncomfortable. At this time, companies in many related industries in the United States, the European Union, and Japan that have been implicated because of this incident are also all After receiving a notice jointly issued by the Huaxia Commerce Department and Haiming City to cooperate with the investigation, especially as the intensity of the investigation escalates, the shareholders behind these companies are all unable to sit still. You know, if Huaxia really wants to investigate seriously , there are few foreign companies that are not suspected of dumping, because many foreign-funded companies are very ambitious and want to monopolize the market in various fields in China in order to make huge profits, and their first method of monopolizing the Chinese market is dumping. First, they use A large number of cheap similar products occupied China's market share and brought down local Chinese companies. Once they gained sufficient market share and had a say in pricing, they began to use boiling frogs in warm water to promote products for various reasons. Price, thereby seeking huge profits. Therefore, when the Chinese investigation gradually escalated, many companies could not sit still. Especially this time, under Liu Fei's instruction, Haiming City was also extremely selective when selecting the companies to investigate. Targetedly, not only companies with stakes in the three major consortiums were included in the scope of the anti-dumping investigation, but many companies that were hostile to the three major consortiums were also included in the anti-dumping investigation list. In this way, When the anti-dumping investigation gradually escalated, not only the three major consortiums were anxious, but their opponents were also anxious. At this time, when the results of the treatment of the companies of the three major consortiums in Haiming City were announced, some of their main opponents sat down They couldn't stand it anymore, because they could see that this time, Haiming City was serious about it, and so far no one from the upper echelons of China had come out to criticize Haiming City's actions. This rare silence made these people even more worried. Foreign conglomerates and politicians are frightened.
These foreigners all know that the Chinese side gives the world the impression of being gentle and has always been very honest, but it is difficult for ordinary people to bear it when an honest person gets angry. During the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea, the Chinese side withstood the powerful force of the United States. Advantages still push the United States out of the 38th Parallel. So now, when China is angry, the Americans have to think carefully. As for the European Union and Japan, not to mention the current Haiming City even Americans are not afraid anymore, let alone them.
Ten days later, when Haiming City's actions escalated step by step, the United States became impatient. First, the spokesperson of the U.S. Department of Commerce directly lodged a strong protest to China, demanding that China immediately restrain Haiming City's activities in the field of commerce and trade. We must act out of line to avoid directly dragging the two countries into a full-scale trade war, otherwise the interests of both parties will be harmed.
However, this time, China only stated that it could convey the strong opposition from the United States to Haiming City.
Soon, when Haiming City received the opinions conveyed by the U.S. Commerce Department, Haiming City Party Committee Secretary Liu Fei and Mayor Wang Chenglin came forward at the same time and held a press conference. At the press conference, Liu Fei He once again declared forcefully: "Everyone, we in Haiming City are not afraid of the escalation of the trade war. If the three major consortiums, the United States, the European Union, and Japan do not reflect on their despicable methods and do not immediately stop the anti-dumping of major companies in Haiming City, If the investigation does not give Haiming City a clear explanation, then the trade war will escalate. Our Haiming City has already prepared for a trade war. The United States, the European Union and Japan have been accusing China of violating WTO rules. , accusing China of adopting acts of trade warism, accusing China of implementing anti-dumping, but please the news media and the people of the world to open your eyes and take a closer look, whether the tire special protection case is a typical trade protectionism, the United States and Europe Are Japan's sanctions against China's photovoltaic industry typical of trade protectionism? There are countless such examples. Although we Chinese people are honest, Western countries such as the United States and Europe should not go too far, especially in this trade war. From a fundamental point of view, it was the Mergen Consortium, the Rocafour Consortium and the Japanese Meishi Consortium that planned the jump. We in Haiming City will never make any compromises. If a trade war breaks out, let’s start a trade war. At worst, everyone will lose. Who is afraid of whom?"
When Liu Fei's remarks appeared in the world's news media, the whole world was almost excited. No one thought that Haiming Municipal Party Committee Secretary could be so strong.
Office of the Under Secretary of Commerce, Washington, United States.
Kaitens, director of the Morgan Consortium, sat opposite Deputy Minister Mercy, his face looking very serious.
Mersey said with a gloomy face: "Mr. Kaitens, the main reason why I came to you this time is because our business department is under too much pressure now. Due to the strong measures taken by Haiming City, many people in our country are now under pressure." The consortia that have been included in the anti-dumping investigation by Haiming City have put pressure on our commerce department, asking us to end this trade dispute as soon as possible, because this kind of trade dispute is not beneficial to American companies at all, and many consortiums also silently agree with you. The Gen consortium has expressed its dissatisfaction with the actions of provoking Haiming City, so I hope your consortium can think about it carefully."
After hearing what Mercy said, Kaitens' face also darkened. Regarding the situation in front of him, he was also very aware that there was now a polarization in the attitude of the consortium's board of directors towards Haiming City. , although most of the directors previously supported taking a tough stance against Haiming City, after Haiming City successively announced and introduced strong countermeasures, many people have realized that Liu Fei and Wang Chenglin have now embraced This dispute was resolved with the determination of a fight to the death, but this time, the attitude of the upper management of China was very silent. This made many directors of the Morgan Consortium realize that China is no longer the China that would give in on everything before. , especially with the rise of a new generation of elites such as Liu Fei, Cao Jinyang, and Wang Chenglin, China's international strategy is undergoing subtle adjustments.
