At the end of December 1994, New Year's Day was approaching.
Ma Qianshan hurriedly flew from the imperial capital to Kiev, Ukraine. Only when he arrived in Kiev did he find out that Zhou Qingfeng was based in Odessa, but there was no flight for a while, so he had to wait for several hours at Boryspil Airport.
While waiting for the flight for a few hours, Director Ma was restless in the VIP room of the terminal building like an ant on a hot pot. His phone rang from time to time, and they were all calls from the domestic internal affairs committee, all talking about the same thing.
.
Uncle Zhou really dug a big hole, which caused the local chickens to protest to the country. But the ministries and commissions are very confused about this situation.
Some people say that diplomacy is no trivial matter; some say that earning foreign exchange comes first; some say that this year's GDP will exceed 15% on the basis of last year's rapid growth; some say that this has a bad international impact; some even say, 'Who dares to shake employment?
, take someone’s life.
All in all, the heads and heads were quarreling like a pot of porridge.
Uncle Zhou is really capable of making the local chicken jump in two months. He started at the beginning of November and broke the balance at the end of December.
You must know that there is a delay of about a month in shipping, which means that the 'Holy Light' will ruthlessly use all its strength as soon as it takes action. Before the native chicken can react, an overwhelming offensive will hit the door.
‘Shengguang’ has invested in more than a dozen modern waste material recycling plants in Fujian and imported huge amounts of recyclable waste from Europe, the United States and Japan.
These garbage will be screened before being exported abroad to ensure that they are useful recyclable items. After import, they will be carefully screened. Eagle Sauce imposes comprehensive sanctions on ‘Holy Light’, except for garbage disposal.
Scrap metal, waste plastic, waste paper, waste glass, these raw materials are all transported to the factory. Scrap household appliances are repaired if they can be repaired, and parts are dismantled if they cannot be repaired. Waste textiles are also hand-selected and processed harmlessly.
Europe and the United States, especially the United States, are extremely alarming at wasting things. Rich areas clean up a lot of waste every day, and many daily necessities are used once and then thrown away.
For example, Michelle once said that a real wealthy lady would never wear a set of clothes twice. Even if the clothes are made by famous designers and are expensive, once they are worn, they are old and must be thrown away and cannot be worn again.
Zhou Qingfeng was speechless after hearing this. For a wealthy generation like him from an ordinary background, it is hard to imagine how much evil the aristocracy has done in order to show their superior bloodline.
You must know that Michelle’s clothes are not cheap, and it would be too wasteful to wear them once and throw them away. Precisely because there is so much waste in Europe and the United States, ‘Holy Light’ also makes huge profits from recycling waste.
For example, the group has imported more than three million tons of scrap steel in the past two years. The domestic internal affairs committee is distressed by the foreign exchange spent, but is also happy that it has almost freed up some steel production capacity.
At present, domestic steel production is nearly 100 million tons, but the gap has not been reduced, but is expanding. Reselling steel has allowed many people to accumulate their first pot of gold.
With such a strong waste recycling capability, the output is extremely exaggerated.
President Zhou was going to pick up the local chickens, and the second-hand goods that were originally dumped in Southeast Asia immediately headed towards the Mediterranean, ship after ship. At the same time, there were also international trains sent day and night to deliver door-to-door goods at a faster speed.
Freighters shipped from domestic ports in early November gradually arrived at Mediterranean and Black Sea ports in early December. Marcos has established a complete sales channel, which naturally accommodates millions of tons of goods.
Tuji itself is at the lower end of the industrial chain, and when it encounters an even lower-end dumper, it is completely blindsided.
By the end of December, Tuji's textile sales had been robbed of half, and the other half was in danger.
Ma Qianshan received the news in mid-November, and his mood went up and down like a roller coaster. Zhou Qingfeng had never been so cruel before, and based on the principle of proximity, he conquered cities and territories in the country and surrounding areas.
But this time the group went all out to fight against local chickens, and even sold at a loss - for example, the cost price of leather shoes purchased in Zhejiang was 100 RMB, and the export price was only 20 U.S. dollars.
Sell one pair and get one pair at a loss.
You can't even make back the shipping costs.
But Zhou Qingfeng just dumped it all, trying his best to open up sales channels in the target market, even spending a lot of money to bribe the other party's bureaucracy.
The ministries and commissions had mixed feelings after learning about this. The main reason was that this kind of dumping created a large demand for orders. For example, the shoemaking industry in Zhejiang expanded its production scale like a chicken and hired a large number of workers.
In addition, ‘Holy Light’ spent a lot of soft money, but what it earned back was foreign exchange. Theoretically, it was a loss, but in fact it is hard to say whether it was a loss or not.
The foreign exchange earned by Zhou Qingfeng was immediately spent again, such as purchasing advanced steel and chemical production lines from Europe and the United States. He spent hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars without feeling distressed at all.
Many people in the ministries and commissions actually wanted to give some opinions, but considering the GDP growth last year and this year, the improvements in finance and taxation, and the small amount of money they had in their hands, they finally just shut up.
Just pretend you didn't see it and just do whatever you want.
But the country had no objections, but the local chickens couldn't stand it. At the end of December, they issued a protest through official channels, demanding that the country immediately restrain the "Holy Light" and stop this unilateral dumping behavior.
The ministries and commissions are very confused about this. If others don't protest, they can pretend to be deaf and dumb. But if others protest, they have to say something. Ma Qianshan has a hard life and was kicked to come to Zhou Qingfeng for an interview. He mainly wanted to ask the boss
What is the idea?
When he met Zhou Qingfeng in Odessa, Ma Qianshan asked, "Mr. Zhou, are you really planning to anger the local chicken?"
But Zhou Qingfeng laughed and talked about another topic, "A few years ago there was the 'Washington Consensus', which emphasized reducing government intervention, lifting trade barriers, and achieving financial liberalization. This is the hottest 'neoliberal economy' at the moment.
"
Ma Qianshan's face fell, and he waved his hand and said, "Mr. Zhou, can you please stop talking about these nonsense? All fools know that the 'consensus' is a lie."
"On the contrary, many people believe that."
"At least you and I don't believe it. Now it's the local chickens who are protesting. We must have a countermeasure."
"We are not members of the WTO, so we have neither responsibility nor obligation. Why should we worry about this?"
Ma Qianshan was lost in thought about this sentence.
Zhou Qingfeng continued: "If you want us to abide by the rules, you have to let us join the rules. It is a dream to always exclude us and expect to use rules and regulations to restrain us."
Ma Qianshan shook his head slightly, "Tuji's protest revealed that if 'Holy Light' does not stop dumping, they will not rule out using force to inspect the group's cargo ships. If the other party really does this, we have no way.
"
The native chicken has become accustomed to "bullying the weak". It can compete with the third brother in terms of words, and is as bold as the third brother in actions. As long as it is weaker than it, it will dare to try its hands.
However, Zhou Qingfeng sneered and said, "How can I be afraid of those broken ships of the Native Chicken Navy?"
Ma Qianshan glared and said, "A native chicken is a member of NATO. When beating a dog, it depends on the owner."
Zhou Qingfeng rolled his eyes, "What if it's an internal conflict in NATO?"
