246: Chapter 246: Initial, In-Depth, and Intimate Three-Tier Cooperative Relationship! Salman: Which one is missing?
After Chief Designer Bai Yannian finished his speech, the meeting quickly entered the stage of formal negotiations.
Regarding the specific follow-up work for establishing in-depth cooperative relationships with the Chinese business community, Chief Designer Bai Yannian did not continue to preside over it, but instead handed it over to departments such as the China Ministry of Trade, the Development and Reform Bureau, and the Energy Bureau.
"Your Excellency Former Prime Minister Jiushan, my old friend!" After Chief Designer Bai Yannian left the stage, he went straight to Former Prime Minister Jiushan.
"Please this way, let us have a chat in the reception hall!" Former Prime Minister Jiushan's face showed a look of being flattered.
"Your Excellency Chief Designer Bai Yannian, you are too kind!" Former Prime Minister Jiushan first instructed his subordinates to handle the follow-up negotiations well, and then followed Chief Designer Bai Yannian directly toward the reception hall.
Those present watched as Chief Designer Bai Yannian and Former Prime Minister Jiushan did not let go after shaking hands, walking out of the auditorium while holding hands the entire time, and they all looked thoughtful.
Just at this moment, Director General of the China Ministry of Trade, Yang Sanjin, came to the podium and laughed loudly into the microphone.
"Respected foreign guests, regarding the details of future cooperation!"
"We have already printed special materials, which will be distributed immediately, please take a look!"
"If you have any thoughts, we can discuss them further!"
Staff members distributed the materials, and everyone immediately began to read through them.
Looking at those lenient cooperation terms, everyone was once again shocked by China's sincerity.
According to China's preliminary plan, private cooperative relationships are divided into three levels.
The first is the preliminary cooperative relationship.
Based on this relationship, all external capital can invest in companies related to China's high-tech fields, but they cannot participate in specific management, similar to external financing.
However, the financing ratio is very exaggerated.
According to calculations, 5 billion Western Alliance currency (with a 1:20 exchange rate to Chinese currency) cannot even secure 1% of a startup's shares!
Yet this company's subscribed capital is only 10 million Chinese currency, and the paid-in capital is even only 5 million Chinese currency...
That would be fine, but China also imposed a limit on the maximum investment ratio, which is capped at 5%.
Of course, everyone was already quite satisfied with this.
If not for the fact that everyone had previously shown a friendly attitude toward China, China would have had absolutely no need to give them the opportunity to participate!
Even if it were just 1% of the shares, it would be equivalent to getting money for free.
The second is the in-depth cooperative relationship.
The second tier of cooperative relationship is very simple to explain.
Compared to the first tier, which only involves giving money, the requirement for the second tier is not only to give money, but also to provide people, resources, and channels...
It is a typical case of acting as both father and mother, yet the child born still belongs to China.
Among them, there is one most critical requirement: all technical and management personnel sent into China must not leave China for three years, and they must also sign strict non-disclosure agreements and accept supervision by the China Security Bureau.
In exchange, they can hold up to 20% of the shares.
At the same time, they can also participate in the company's internal operations and specific decision-making.
The third is the intimate cooperative relationship.
The so-called "intimate" means that the Chinese officials will treat them completely as their own people!
In some special fields, they may even have greater preferential treatment than local Chinese companies!
This specifically includes: allowing the establishment of wholly foreign-owned enterprises within China; allowing joint-venture holding methods to conduct business activities in various countries and regions on Blue Star; enjoying various special preferential policies from China regarding taxes, land, and bidding; allowing participation in the follow-up research and development of high-tech products, and obtaining the qualifications for independent promotion and sales overseas; and so on.
Of course, the requirements that need to be met are also very numerous, and they are all politically oriented.
The most basic point is to publicly support and speak up for China, and to completely break away from China's hostile camps.
In addition, one must also bring at least 90% of their entire assets into China, which is equivalent to selling both their skills and their body.
Soon, everyone finished reading the materials, and after initial internal discussions, some people began to ask questions.
"Director General Yang!" Wallace, as the person in charge of the United Kingdom nobles, was the first to speak and ask.
"We have a question!"
Yang Sanjin laughed and said: "Your Excellency Wallace, please go ahead!"
"Regarding the financing ratio for the in-depth cooperative relationship, can it be relaxed a bit?"
"20% is still too little, we hope to be able to reach 49%."
As soon as Wallace's words came out, everyone present immediately understood.
The major nobles of the United Kingdom were planning to form a second-tier in-depth cooperative relationship with China!
The Chinese high-level officials were not surprised by this result.
Even if the United Kingdom nobles break away from Eagle Sauce, they cannot put all their eggs in China's basket.
Betting on multiple sides is essentially the nature and essence of capitalists.
Just as Yang Sanjin was about to speak and explain, someone among the foreign guests suddenly jumped up.
"Where is it too little?"
"Huh? Where is it too little?"
Watching Crown Prince Salman of Arabia stand up with a look of righteous indignation, Wallace's heart skipped a beat.
Shit! Why is it this guy again?
Recalling the shadow of being dominated by Crown Prince Salman at the previous China Military Industry equipment exhibition, Wallace's speech became a bit unsteady.
"Crown Prince Salman, this is our negotiation with China, if you have any opinions, you can..."
Crown Prince Salman interrupted directly: "What, you won't even let me speak?"
"I just don't like you United Kingdom people!" Crown Prince Salman was not polite at all, pointing directly at Wallace and the group of United Kingdom nobles, shouting angrily.
"Tell me, where is 20% too little!"
"You only know how to talk nonsense with your eyes open!"
"Being surrounded, intercepted, blocked, and suppressed by you Western Alliance countries every day, China has also had it very hard!"
"Yet China bears no grudges and has already been so sincere to you!"
"What, you're not willing to take money that's basically free?"
"I can't stand it today!"
"If you ask me, we should just expel you disgusting United Kingdom nobles!"
"Nobles? Noble my ass!"
The originally harmonious and friendly group negotiation was suddenly interrupted by someone unreasonably ranting, and Wallace was completely dumbfounded.
"Crown Prince Salman, you are completely deliberately misinterpreting my words, your intentions are sinister!"
Just at this moment, a smile suddenly appeared on Crown Prince Salman's face again, and he continued to speak with a hint of not-very-serious apology.
"Sorry, Wallace, I apologize to you!"
"My words just now were indeed a bit harsh, everyone is a friendly group of China, and we will all be one family in the future!"
"If you think the 20% ratio is low, why don't you look for the reasons within yourselves!"
"Why must you choose the second-tier in-depth cooperation?"
"I think you should just be straightforward, learn from the major capitals of our Camel Countries, and just establish an intimate cooperative relationship with China directly!"
