Chapter 1083: Disappearing in the Midst of Laughter and Conversation
The first floor of the podium of Jinmao Tower was already crowded with reporters before 9 o'clock. This was the first time that Forex had held a cocktail party for a new company since its establishment, and the other two parties were well-known industry giants in the United States. In the financial world, such news would undoubtedly make the headlines.
Of course, the focus of many reporters who came today was not the newly established Forex Maps - not many people can see the importance of maps at present.
What they care about is whether Forex will take this opportunity today to respond to some hot topics recently.
The veteran reporters held hot hand-ground coffee and gathered in groups of three or five. Someone joked, "It feels like Forex is getting more and more generous."
"Yes," just like some people who read some reports in the newspapers or watched some talk shows on TV in the past two days, they were too lazy to think about whether those words were right or not, but just accepted the views of those so-called experts and determined that people like Feng Yiping did not want to give back to society. When reporters encounter such problems, they are too lazy to think deeply.
Forex's generosity means respect for everyone. This is a good thing. Why do we need to think about it more deeply?
Yes, Feng Yiping still failed to be stingy today. He moved two coffee machines outside the demonstration hall where the cocktail party was about to be held.
Although that's all, the reporters who have been following Forex are already very satisfied.
You should know that in the past, Forex really didn't pay much attention to them. There was no greeting of concern and care beforehand, and there was no thanks and gratitude afterwards. The guy's attitude was, you can come or not, you can report or not.
"Hey, did you notice that some familiar faces were not seen today," said one.
"As expected, I didn't receive an invitation," someone said immediately.
As for why no application was received? It must be related to the recent controversy.
Forex will definitely not invite those newspapers that have been sitting on the wrong side of the butt recently.
The reporters are naturally well aware of these hotly debated topics recently. At first glance, they make sense. However, if you really talk about them, haha, people with common sense will understand whether some of the statements can stand up if they think about it a little.
…………
At 9:30, the reporters registered to enter the exhibition hall on the first floor. The decoration here is quite grand. On the front wall, there is a big curtain. It seems that there are many things to be displayed today.
At 9:40, Feng Yiping and his three companions entered the venue with a group of leaders. In addition to the district government, there are also relevant leaders from the Ministry of Information Industry and the State Administration of Surveying and Mapping.
However, the reporters' cameras quickly focused on Mayer.
In other words, this seems to be the instinct of reporters. In the news broadcast produced by our CCTV, the camera will only pause in two situations. One is to shoot the leaders on the rostrum, and the other is to subconsciously pause for a while when scanning the beauty, and she will definitely be given a full face treatment.
Everyone speculated about the origin of this foreign beauty. There is no other reason. The business world is a place where there is a lack of beauties and no lack of beauties.
The reason why we say there is no shortage is that any company has a few beauties that can be shown off. The reason why we say there is a shortage is that there are not many beauties among the top figures of each company.
Of course, there are also not many handsome men among the top figures of each company.
So Mayer on the stage, oh, and the young Feng Yiping, are really a breath of fresh air.
The answer was soon revealed. After several leaders gave speeches of varying lengths, Mayer spoke on behalf of Google.
This girl is actually from Google? Everyone immediately labeled her as a white, rich and beautiful woman. White and beautiful, that is obvious. As for rich, Google is about to go public. How can an executive like her not be rich by then?
Feng Yiping gave the closing speech, or demonstration. He demonstrated the features of Forex Maps in the form of animation on the big screen. In fact, many of them are what Google Maps and Street View are doing now.
The display of 3D maps and Street View maps surprised the reporters. Of course, this is very Forex. As their first company to be established in cooperation with a well-known foreign company and publicized in a high-profile manner, it will naturally be more high-end.
However, the reporters today all had other intentions. Although a newly established company is also high-tech and novel, it is not epoch-making. They just mentioned it roughly. The main purpose of their coming today is to get the opportunity to ask questions in the subsequent question-and-answer session.
Feng Yiping was also very cooperative today. He did not leave as soon as the press conference ended. He stood on the stage with a smile and let everyone ask questions.
The first person who had the opportunity to ask questions was a female reporter. She was quite pretty, which made the men couldn't help but complain that beautiful women are indeed treated preferentially everywhere.
"Mr. Feng, do you have any response to the hot topics that everyone has been discussing recently?" Of course, this question was asked.
"We found that some criticisms are now directed directly at you and your company. Why have you and Forex remained silent? Don't you have anything to say?"
"Aren't you worried that this will make some people no longer like you?"
This sister is not a vase. She asked almost all the questions that should be asked.
"I didn't really pay attention to it at first, but later I saw that we made a lot of money but paid little tax, and that we had a weak sense of social responsibility and only cared about enjoying ourselves and didn't do our best for charity. Although some of my colleagues were very angry about these accusations, I still asked them to exercise restraint because I felt that there was no need to respond to these questions."
"Why it's not necessary, I believe you know the reason, right,"
"Besides the fact that there is no need to respond, I also feel that our response to some issues will not satisfy everyone. In the eyes of some people, what we say must be just to put money on their faces, so it is better not to say anything. ,"
"However, I have a small suggestion now, which is not only about this matter, but also related to many things. That is, is it best for our relevant functional departments to certify the title of 'expert'? No. If you are certified, you cannot claim to be an expert,”
"To be honest, I used to like the hat of business expert on my head, but now, the title of expert is everywhere, more than managers a few years ago,"
"Of course, there are a lot of highly respected people from the Fang family who have made great achievements in some fields, but there seems to be a lot of people who are just pretending to be fake. Some of the so-called experts are really not as good as some of my college classmates, but such experts are... They have the nerve to go around and promote their opinions that cannot stand scrutiny at all. Their actions make me no longer want to be called an expert."
"Please don't take quotes out of context. I'm talking about some experts. Okay, I beg you, it's best to ask questions related to today's topic."
"Mr. Feng, Mr. Feng," the female reporter who just asked the question stood up, "there is a question you haven't answered yet, so don't worry. Some people who don't know the truth will dislike you after reading relevant reports. ?”
"Well, I'm not RMB, why do I have to make everyone like me?"
The audience was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter. They knew that next, this sentence would be widely circulated.
"Mr. Feng," the second opportunity to ask a question was finally given to a male reporter, "In view of some of the negative impacts caused so far, have you and Jiaqiang considered taking legal measures to protect your rights?"
"I'm afraid this will disappoint some people. Some crazy talk has not had any bad impact on us. Most people still have their own judgment. We at Huasheng have never discounted the various services and products we provide. "
"Legal means," Feng Yiping shook his head, "I really haven't thought about it. We have a lot to do, and no one is worthy of our time. If we have that time, we might as well think more about how to improve the quality of our services and products. "
"In addition, we believe that in today's society, everyone will definitely pay the price for what they have done,"
…………
At noon, Professor Xie Bing knew the specific news. Although Feng Yiping and Jiasheng's ignorance made her a little annoyed, to be honest, she was really disappointed.
She originally hoped that Jiasheng or Feng Yiping's reaction would be more intense, so that the next part would be exciting and she could be hot again.
But she didn't expect Feng Yiping and the others to be so restrained, or so indifferent.
However, it didn't matter. She turned on her computer and prepared to carefully craft the next article. She had already thought about the direction. Why didn't Jiasheng explain or respond? I'm afraid I'm speechless!
If nothing else, this article will be published tomorrow.
…………
At 8:30 p.m., Professor Xie, who had already sent the article he had written to relevant people, sat in front of the TV on time, watching CCTV 2's "Economic Information Broadcast" and browsing tomorrow's work schedule sent by his assistant.
As a financial expert, this is a program she must watch every day. CCTV Financial Channel is also a channel she has always wanted to be a guest on. In the past, she could only think about it, but looking at the current development trend, it seems that this wish will not be realized. Too long.
There are so many columns on the financial channel, which one should you choose? Is it possible to become a regular guest on one of the columns?
Just as she was thinking about it, a voice suddenly pulled her back. A reporter asked, "Recently, regarding some domestic business leaders who are on the rich list, but not on the tax pay list, Wang Si What do you think?"
Professor Xie was excited. She tried her best to read the words on the TV. The person being interviewed was the director of the Collection Management and Science and Technology Development Department of the State Administration of Taxation. Her heart immediately sank.
Like most of the officials interviewed by national ministries and commissions, Director Wang stood in front of a brown bookcase and answered the reporter's question from the financial channel with a smile, "Actually, this question is not a question at all. The rich list released by relevant agencies and The tax payment ranking list released by our General Administration targets different targets.”
"The rich list is for individuals, and our tax list is for companies. Although there is a slight correlation between them, there is no comparison."
"This is the view of some experts," the reporter said.
"That's definitely not an expert in our bureau," Director Wang laughed, but Professor Xie's face immediately darkened and turned a little red. Her statement was simply untenable in front of real experts.
"The amount of personal wealth is not directly related to the amount of tax paid by his company. Bill Gates and Microsoft are special cases,"
"Everyone knows that in our country, the public economy still occupies the dominant position. This is the basic characteristic and economic foundation of our country. Other forms of economy, including the private economy, are supplements to some parts of the national economy,"
"Today's major taxpayers are still large state-owned enterprises. Among the top 500 domestic enterprises, most of them are state-owned enterprises. Therefore, state-owned enterprises are still the main force in this tax payment list."
"This year's tax payment champion is still Daqing Oilfield. It was also last year. By the time we published the list, its tax payment had exceeded 14 billion yuan,"
"We need to compare another set of figures. I know that the richest man in China this year is Feng Yiping of Jiasheng Group. Of course, it is also a very successful company, but our Daqing Oilfield Co., Ltd. has a registered capital of more than 40 billion. , with total assets of nearly 200 billion,”
"Daqing's oil output alone this year is close to 50 million tons, and its pre-tax profits are as high as tens of billions. It is expected that pre-tax profits will exceed 100 billion in the next two to three years. How many private enterprises in China can have as much profit as this in terms of output value? "
"We also need to consider that, for example, Jiasheng has many overseas assets. We do not have the right to tax this part,"
"In addition, we have to consider other reasons. For a company like Jiasheng, which is growing very fast, many of its projects are still in the period of local tax preferential policies."
"Of course, our tax department is very effective, and Huasheng is also very active. Huasheng's tax payment is directly proportional to its output value and profits. Although it is not the largest tax payer among private enterprises, the total amount of tax paid is the highest among private enterprises. Still at the forefront,”
"So, I can say with certainty that in terms of tax payment, Jiaqiang is a very socially responsible company. I have also done some research. As for Jiaqiang, which everyone is concerned about, as far as I know, its companies in various places , are all local tax models,”
