He was born as a businessman, so he naturally knew what his smile meant.
Li Linfei said: "Just like your Excellency, what you just said, if you can exempt our future technology industry from tax during your tenure, then..."
"You have a good idea." He interrupted Li Linfei with a soft snort.
"If you have ideas, you will have a future. Your Excellency Zongtong, the source of the incident is all yourselves, not us. Even if you don't admit that you have done something wrong, I think you will have to pay the price."
Li Linfei said: "The conditions I mentioned just now allow you to pay no price, just exempt from taxation. Isn't this something that often happens to foreign-funded companies in the United States? Why can't I also give a little discount to my future technology? Besides, everyone Still friends."
"Your Excellency Zongtong, don't forget, we are helping you support 300 million workers. Such a large and diverse number of jobs is several times more important than 300 billion US dollars, or even a year of tax exemption."
Li Linfei's last words hit his heart like a heavy hammer.
That's right, besides the problem of metal hydrogen, what he worries most is the employment problem of those 300 million workers.
Once Future Technology is really withdrawn, they will be completely unemployed, and after they are unemployed, they will inevitably develop resentment against themselves, the president, which is very detrimental to him.
Seeing his face change, Li Linfei knew that he was weighing things up, so he struck while the iron was hot and said, "Your Excellency, you don't have to rush to answer me about this matter right away, as long as you give an answer within three days, it will still be valid."
"And, to tell you the truth, in fact, my future technology will not lack your American market. The current revenue in Europe is 20 billion US dollars a day."
"In regions such as South America, Southeast Asia, South Asia, the Middle East and Africa, we are also about to open up new markets."
"So, if you insist on divesting us and disregarding those 300 million workers, we don't care." Without further ado, Li Linfei finished speaking.
But he laughed out loud, pointed at Li Linfei and said, "Mr. Li Linfei, you are really good at measuring gains and losses. If you are a politician, you must be very, very good."
"Thank you, I'm just a businessman." Li Linfei said.
"Okay, your words moved me. I agree with your previous proposal, but I have three requirements."
"Please tell me." His compromise was something Li Linfei expected.
"First, in terms of the quantity of metal hydrogen, we in the United States need 1000 tons, and we must get it within a month, and for these [-] tons of metal hydrogen, we can only pay you [-] billion U.S. dollars."
He stated his first request.
"and then?"
"Second, you must promise that I will not withdraw capital from the United States for an endless period of time in the future. Of course, I also assure you that our US government will not persecute your company like before."
"No problem, I promise you."
The explosive head continued: "Also, on the matter of tax exemption, I can only approve you for one year. After one year, you still have to pay taxes normally, and you are not allowed to disclose this matter."
"One year? That's fine." Li Linfei thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
Chapter 925 Fried's Shock
Speaking of which, he is also an old fritter, and he is not willing to suffer at all.
On the 200 tons of metal hydrogen, 300 billion U.S. dollars was directly cut, plus the 500 billion U.S. dollars that need to be compensated, a total of [-] billion U.S. dollars.
Using 500 billion U.S. dollars and the right to purchase metal hydrogen in exchange for one year's tax revenue for future technology, from their standpoint, it is not a loss at all.
However, from Li Linfei's point of view, he didn't lose at all. Not only can he get tax exemption, but he can also exchange metal hydrogen for 1000 billion U.S. dollars. This is simply a big profit.
The 1000 billion US dollars picked up for nothing is so cool.
Li Linfei was so happy that he wanted to laugh, but his surface was still very calm.
As for telling Li Linfei not to disclose the tax exemption, it is obviously for the sake of the face of the US government. To Li Linfei, it is just a trivial matter.
Moreover, even if Li Linfei promised not to disclose the matter, wouldn't there be an insider exposed by the US ZF?
After the meeting with Afro ended, Li Linfei had lunch with him in the restaurant on the second floor of the Future Technology Building.
Then, accompanied by a group of bodyguards and accompanying senior officials, Afro returned to Washington by special plane.
In the office, Fried asked Li Linfei anxiously: "Boss, how is the situation? How far have you talked with him?"
Judging from the situation where Li Linfei and Afro shook hands, laughed and had a meal together, Fried judged that the two should not have talked, but he was curious to what extent.
Li Linfei said: "Don't worry, it's been completely settled."
"It's settled, really?"
Freed breathed a sigh of relief, with a look of great joy on his face.
"Well, although he didn't promise to lose money, he exempted our company from taxes for one year." Li Linfei crossed his arms and was in a good mood.
"What, exemption, tax exemption for one year!" Fried was shocked when he heard this.
Compared with asking the United States for 90 billion US dollars in compensation, tax exemption for one year is much more cost-effective.
According to the previous performance of Future Technology in North America, one year of tax exemption means that it can increase the profit of Future Technology by at least 600 billion U.S. dollars. It is profit!
However, what Fried didn't know was that the compensation Li Linfei demanded from the United States this time was 300 billion U.S. dollars. Li Linfei didn't plan to talk about these things, anyway, it doesn't make much sense to say it now.
"Don't make a fuss, the tax exemption is only for one year."
Li Linfei smiled and said, "However, regarding the matter of tax exemption, I promised him that I would not disclose it to the outside world, and you should not tell it, as long as you know it in your heart."
Fried nodded and said: "Don't worry, boss, if you don't say this kind of thing, it will give the US ZF a step down. Now everything is fine, how can I be so stupid as to make the situation chaotic, then boss... ...can we start working then?"
"Of course, you should inform me that all sales and manufacturing in North America are now in motion. In addition, all employees who have participated in demonstrations and demonstrations before will be counted, and all wages that have not been at work this month will be paid to them, and each person will be paid more. A subsidy of two hundred dollars." Li Linfei said.
"Then... what about those who didn't participate in the demonstration?"
"Of course I won't pay. Do you need me to tell you?"
"Ok."
Fried smiled wryly and said, "But the boss, you are really generous, so you paid a salary of more than one billion dollars for no reason."
Li Linfei rolled his eyes at him and said, "Short-sighted, for us after the tax exemption, more than one billion dollars can be earned back in just one day, how short is it?"
"That's right, I'm thinking about it." Fried smirked.
Immediately after Fried left Li Linfei's place, he was notified of the start of sales and production of Future Technology.
It is estimated that in the next three days, the production and sales of Future Technology will be completely on track.
Generally speaking, for a company whose sales are booming but suddenly stops selling, if it organizes sales again, its sales performance may plummet.
This kind of thing falls on the head of Future Technology, and it is not clear what the situation is for the time being. We have to wait until the specific data comes out to find out, but the quality of Future Technology's products should not change much.
