1873 New Policy Adjustments

Orders worth hundreds of millions or more than a billion gave Mr. Trueman an indescribable feeling.

The amount of these orders is too large.

It’s so big that sometimes he doesn’t even think it’s real!

The officer stood silent. This was not something he could say in his status.

Whether it's the president, Lynch, or the military, he is a nobody.

The officer's silence did not dissatisfy Mr. Trueman. He had often been silent before, and he knew very well that this silence did not necessarily mean that he really did not want to speak, but that he could not speak.

At the same time, he also understood why he wanted to place an order for Lynch.

That's because other military-industrial groups are clearly lagging behind Lynch's Flight Research Institute in certain technologies and have no chance of catching up.

Don't look at the fact that the Flight Research Institute has recently authorized the production of first-generation fighter jets and sold many assembly lines.

But compared to the real second generation they are producing, the parameters are much worse, and no one can still pose a danger to them, including Lanying Airlines.

They all actively avoid the core areas of Blackstone Airlines, which is enough to see how terrifying Blackstone Airlines' dominance in this part is.

Mr. Trueman handed the signed contract back, "Is that all right?"

The officer breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the document, nodded and said, "Yes, Mr. President."

"If there's nothing else..."

Mr. Trueman nodded slightly, the officer left the room and closed the door, and calm returned to the office.

But his heart couldn't calm down.

With so many orders and the ever-expanding Blackstone Group, almost all walks of life in the federation are involved. Now even the military has a deep relationship with Lynch.

He is like a ghost floating over Bupen, constantly corroding everything in the Federation. From this office to the lowest level of the people, they are all connected to him, or will inevitably be connected in the future.

This also caused Mr. Trueman to have doubts about his decision, and he really waited until after the war, when everything stabilized.

Can he really make Lynch put down his power and influence and be willing to be an ordinary rich man?

He has so much money and so many people are buying it, is he willing to do it?

This is a question that will never be answered, or the answer will never be what Mr. Trueman needs, but he has no better way.

Now he can no longer touch Lynch, because Lynch is too closely entangled with all walks of life.

If we want to move him, the military will not agree, the Blackstone Group itself will not agree, and there will be huge opinions within the Holy Peace Society.

The "York Gang", which has gradually gained a certain voice and status in Congress, will definitely not be on his side, and the newly elected chairman of the party committee will definitely not be on his side.

Looking at it this way, it seems that everyone is on Lynch's side.

But Mr. Trueman knew that he was not completely without a chance.

When the war is completely won, his personal reputation and prestige will reach its peak. Whoever stands on the opposite side of him at this time will be the common enemy of the Federation.

He can continue to wait, because he still has a trump card!

In fact, Lynch has never offended him, and even gave him great help when he ran for president.

The sense of crisis he had towards Lynch was entirely caused by the Blackstone Group.

This is a giant with its own armed forces, spanning multiple industries and its own bank.

Once he has some bad ideas for the Federation, the Federation will fall into disaster, and he must eliminate this possibility, even if it is just a possibility.

And it’s not just Lynch, all big capitalists are his targets and enemies.

He will never forget the humiliation those capitalists gave him!

Maybe it's time to make some adjustments!

Citing national security as a reason, the Presidential Office has pushed for detailed changes to some regulations, such as increasing management and control over domestic financial activities and giving the Financial Supervisory Commission more power.

Another example is requiring all walks of life to cooperate with the federal government in establishing an industry self-discipline supervision system and establishing semi-official supervision agencies to constrain the behavior of enterprises.

These changes are very detailed and the general direction has not changed, so not many people pay attention to it.

But this has also touched the hearts of some capitalists, because these changes may seem inconspicuous, but in fact they make them feel uncomfortable.

All kinds of free financial means or market means are now more or less restricted.

For example, when companies participate in financial operations, there were no regulations or restrictions before. Even if companies spent all their money to repay loans and financing, they would not interfere in this.

This is the company's own right. They are not afraid of losing and can't afford to wear pants. The bank has no obligation to remind them.

But now that these policies have been revised, companies must leave enough funds to maintain daily production and operations, and the remaining money can be used to participate in financial operations.

At the same time, banks cannot provide large loans and capital allocation to enterprises or individuals without reservation.

This makes many big capitalists feel uncomfortable.

The wealthy people in the Federation are divided into three parts. The first part started in industry.

This group of people occupies the middle and lower classes and the vast majority of capitalists. They run various factories and seem to make a lot of money, but in fact they don’t make much.

Therefore, they are the middle and lower class in the capitalist field, and are not looked down upon by the other two types of capitalists.

The second group is from finance, and this group is also the middle and upper class in the capitalist field.

For them, the financial market is a big gambling table. Although the risks are high, the rewards are also great.

It may only be a few days, and the money they make is money that they will never make in a lifetime.

But the loss is also scary.

The third part is the conglomerates, chaebols, and economic monsters that span the first two parts.

This is the top level among capitalists, such as people like Lynch.

They have real industries, finance, and indirect monopolies in certain areas.

But whether it is the first type of capitalist or the last type of capitalist, a large consortium, they will have great connections with banks.

Loan, mortgage, or whatever.

It is difficult for any company to leave the business of banking, and now the federal government is requiring changes in this area, and the changes are not just ordinary financial operations.

For example, loans taken by enterprises to expand production capacity have also been included in the list that require increased scrutiny.

Simply put, lending and purely financial operations are in trouble.

However, these troubles have not been directly reflected in the financial market, and stocks are still rising every day.

Except for a few stocks being affected and then being driven up by the big index, there doesn't seem to be much change.

The orderly inflow of international hot money, coupled with investment promotion, has also promoted the rise of the entire social economy.

Some adjustments in the presidential palace have caused dissatisfaction among some people, and these people have also had conversations with Mr. Trueman in their own way.

But the result of the dialogue was not very good. In their words, it was all for the economic and financial security of the federation.

Changes to it will not be considered until after the war is over.

The reason why everyone's reaction is not so strong is that the issue of industry self-regulation raised by the Presidential Palace is a typical carrot and stick game.

Give it a hammer and give it some benefits.

Industry self-discipline is an organization similar to an industry guild formed by well-known companies in the industry. It has a semi-official nature.

They will review and investigate some companies in the industry that have obvious violations.

This allowed the big capitalists to gain deeper control over the industry while being restricted by funds, so they pinched their noses and temporarily approved it.

Everyone is privately dissatisfied with some of the demands made by the presidential palace, but they are limited to private discussions.

In times of war, the wisest thing to do is not to confront the president.

At the same time, the Ministry of International Affairs issued some new rules for capital access.

If international funds enter the Federation and then leave, the departure tax minus the inbound funds will be subject to a departure tax of no more than 75% in a tiered manner.

However, at the same time as the new departure tax was announced, the Ministry of International Affairs also announced a new departure tax reduction plan.

For example, after foreign capital enters the federal government and invests in real industries, each time a worker is hired, when the capital leaves the country and pays departure tax, it can obtain a part of the tax exemption.

It's not a percentage, just a single, specific number that will increase based on the worker's specific years of service.

For example, a worker with only one year of service may receive a tax deduction of 120 yuan.

But if you are a worker with ten years of service, you may get a tax deduction of RMB 1,500.

You can only apply to leave Hong Kong once every two years.

In addition, there are other corresponding deductions and exemptions, such as doing charity in the federal government and donating to charitable foundations.

For example, participating in some investments that will help improve people's living standards, establishing and maintaining the operations of public welfare organizations, etc.

Each tax reduction will have a specific upper limit. If the full upper limit is reached, the departure tax will be reduced to 20 to 30 percent.

This is already a very appropriate number and is acceptable for all external funds.

All policies, from the Presidential Palace and the Department of International Affairs, will be officially implemented starting from October 1st...

After less than half a month of communication, with the exception of the Federal Reserve Bank, the other five banks and Lynch reached an agreement on the national debt issue of Gaevra.

Five banks hold about 3 billion federal soles worth of national debts of the country. These national debts are basically destroyed because the country is now destroyed. Theoretically, these national debts will never come back.

After voting by the boards of directors and shareholders' meetings of the five major banks, the national debt totaling 3 billion will be transferred to Lynch at a price of 450 million.

At this time, with Lynch in his hands, he has become Gaevra's biggest creditor.
