Global monopoly of technology

Chapter 483 [Lao Zhang, fortunately, did not humiliate his life, the euro zone market was saved]

Times have changed, and Europe is really old.

Slane: "Oh? Does your company have a solution?"

Zhang Bowen smiled and said, "There are some."

Slane: "I would like to hear the details."

Zhang Bowen: "First, Bluestar Technology will further increase the scale of investment in the euro area market. We will invest more profits in the euro area to invest in the euro area and establish more joint ventures; second, we Will directly provide 30,000 new jobs in the Eurozone, which means that the number of employees of our group companies in the EU market will exceed 100,000. Third, this incident will impact the European economy. We propose to cooperate with the European Commission To jointly establish a 15 billion euro fund to deal with the economic crisis and weak SMEs or industries, Bluestar Technology can provide 10 billion euros, which can be put in place immediately."

The huge sum of 10 billion euros can be delivered immediately. Mr. Zhang’s words are full of confidence and confidence, because Bluestar Technology Group’s cash flow of more than 200 billion US dollars is spread across all continents in the world. This is also for tax avoidance and spreading the money in various regions. , Is also conducive to capital admission.

If so much money is gathered together, the time cost caused by the circulation problem is huge, and it may also miss the best time to enter the market.

In the European market, Bluestar Technology Group currently reserves 37 billion euros in cash assets. This astronomical amount of money can be used at any time.

Well, smashed tens of billions of euros, and there are more than 200 million euros.

After Lao Zhang's three tactics were thrown out, all the members of the European Commission's negotiating team headed by Slane lost their eyes for a while, dare to feel that this is the God of Wealth.

Directly provide 30,000 new jobs and establish joint ventures, then indirectly promote more jobs.

What does the employment rate represent?

It stands for the approval rate!

Which politician is not tempted?

In the end, Slane said lightly: "Your company is indeed quite sincere, but the executive committee does not want to participate in this fund. We will not contribute the 5 billion euros."

Zhang Bowen shrugged and said casually: "No problem, then it will be reduced to 10 billion euros. Bluestar Technology only pays 10 billion euros. There is not much more and a lot less. No bargaining."

Slane: "..."

Lao Zhang didn't say that. The other party thought that this was not the bottom line of Bluestar Technology. As expected, these Europeans were a group of greedy people, just as Mr. Luo said.

Sure enough, Slane quickly set up the price, demanding 20 billion euros from the Bluestar Technology Department and 50,000 new jobs.

Zhang Bowen calmly refused: "I'm sorry, Mr. Slane, what I said before was the bottom line of our group company. It is true that our group company will do its best, but at the same time it is ready to withdraw at any time. "

The implication is that if you don’t agree, you can lay off employees and cut expenditures. The European economy is already like this anyway. Bluestar Technology doesn’t mind making the fire a little more vigorous.

There are no Internet companies in Europe. Bluestar Technology Group has lost the market here, and local Internet companies in Europe can't get up. It will only be occupied by Internet companies such as Google and Amazon in North America.

The North American Internet dominates the continental European market. It is worse for Europeans. Taking cloud computing services as an example, the technology is not as good as Bluestar Technology, but the cost is still high. Bluestar Technology’s Nebulas Star-Cloud solution has been reduced. 30% profit.

Slane and others did not expect that the people of Bluestar Technology would be so upright, and this negotiation did not follow the routine.

The first negotiation and consultation did not reach a conclusion. After the meeting, Lao Zhang also returned to his hotel. His trip is expected to last one week. It is impossible for such a transnational business negotiation to reach actual progress in one go.

...

In the hotel room, Zhang Bowen is communicating with Luo Sheng on the phone.

"Lao Zhang, the European Union is drafting a digital tax increase for technology giants outside the euro zone, mainly for the additional taxation of China's Blue Coast, Bluestar Technology, and North American technology giants such as Google, Apple, IBM, Intel, etc. Plan. When you go to talk to them, tell the Europeans that we support this draft. Not only Bluestar Technology will support it, but the Blue Coast will also support it."

Hearing Luo Sheng's explanation on the other end of the phone, Zhang Bowen was puzzled for a while, hesitated for a moment and couldn't help but said: "This...Luo, this is not appropriate, the price is a bit higher."

Luo Sheng on the other end of the phone laughed and said, “Don’t worry, even if you just say it, I’m so magnificent because I expect this draft will not be passed, at least not in ten years, because the North American technology giants are too big. That's more, that's enough, then why don't we be good people and take good people cards?"

Zhang Bowen's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he couldn't help but applaud: "Wonderful, I know how to do it, haha."

Luo Shengyan's concise and concise remarks can be described as awakening the dreamer. The "digital tax" is the European Union's early plans to directly tax the turnover of technology giants outside Europe in the European Union.

The target of this taxation plan is the global annual turnover of more than 750 million euros, and the total taxable turnover generated in Europe exceeds 50 million US dollars.

The effective tax rate that enterprises in traditional industries need to pay reaches 23.3%, while large technology companies often operate transnationally, and the average tax rate paid in the euro area is only 9.5%. In addition, there are no large IT technology giants in Europe, resulting in a large amount of profits by overseas companies. The removal of the tech giants is very upsetting to Europeans.

Therefore, the European Union has always wanted to promote the passage of this bill, but the biggest vested interests are North American technology companies. The opposition and resistance must also be North America, and it is not one or two, but a lot of them. So this bill passed, cutting meat. The most painful is the old beauty.

It is for this reason that Luo Sheng made this decision, because he knew that this bill would be passed with a lot of resistance, mainly from North America, and it would not be passed in the next eight to ten years.

Anyway, you can be sure that it can't be passed, so support with both hands, get a good person card and transfer the contradiction to the Americans, why not?

Your old beauty may make money, but I will definitely not lose, and may make a lot of money, isn’t it beautiful?

...

Next, Zhang Bowen entered into the negotiation process with the EU Executive Committee again, and the final result reached a consensus in the second interview and consultation. On the fifth day of Lao Zhang's arrival in Europe, both parties announced heavy news.

The two parties held a grand signing ceremony. The main highlight of the cooperation is that Bluestar Technology has increased its efforts to expand its business in the European market. The media's most concern is that Bluestar Technology will create 31,000 jobs in the Eurozone market and The Joint European Commission has spent 15 billion euros in response to the economic crisis, of which 4.5 billion euros are used to help small and medium-sized enterprises and industries with weak economic resilience.

Once this wave of cooperation has been hammered out, the mainstream media on the European continent has made a 180-degree turn. Some time ago, it was still criticizing Luo Sheng and Bluestar Technology. Now, the mainstream media in Europe are not hesitating to boast about Bluestar Technology. Vision and wise decision.

It's so real.

This news is finally good news for the stock market. At least Bluestar Technology Group has not lost the Eurozone market, which is the second largest business market after North America, and it is now considered to be retained.

The share price of Bluestar Technology has also been affected by this news and the decline has slowed down. The market’s feedback is the fastest. This news has finally restored some confidence in the market.

Bluestar's current market value is reported to close at 465.58 billion US dollars. Although the collapse has accumulated more than 1 trillion US dollars, it is still the world's largest market value.

Zhang Bowen was fortunate enough to complete this trip to Europe. The overall situation of the Bluestar Technology Group was finally stabilized, and it did not continue to fall into the market of developed countries.
