Rebirth of the World’s Richest Man

Chapter 3777 Yang Xu

 The negotiations between Huahua Bank and Huaqing Holding Group are still in full swing. The outside world knows nothing about it. This kind of thing only spreads within a certain range, and not many people in the shopping mall know about it.

Everyone just knows that Jiang Xiaobai has not appeared in public since the New Year, but Jiang Xiaobai's appearance or not has no impact at all on the entire domestic shopping mall.

In April in Beijing, the most lively thing in shopping malls was about the telecommunications monopoly. The Economic Information Daily published an article questioning the monthly rental fee. Some experts believed that this was a product of the planned economy era, and there was no legal title to rely on. ,

Some experts criticized the roaming charges of mobile phones, saying that the cost of mobile phone roaming is almost zero. They also gave an example. The telecommunications industry in Citigroup implements the same price for the entire network. Not only are there no roaming charges, but there are no domestic long-distance charges. A call from Citigroup to China costs only 1.67 cents a minute, which is 13.1 minutes domestically, while a call from China costs 8 yuan a minute, a difference of more than 60 times.

In addition, some experts pointed out that the monopoly structure makes telecommunications companies reject new technologies. In some foreign countries, Internet telephony and wireless broadband technologies have been fully applied and popularized, which can greatly reduce the cost of telecommunications and even provide free services. However, in Domestically, they have all been relegated to limbo.

Several experts came forward to criticize, and the influence was still very great. Suddenly, everyone was talking about it, and I don’t know how many people paid attention to it. In fact, this matter happened once a few years ago.

That would be because of stealing phone bills.

 The experts and professors at this time are not like those in later generations. Whoever pays them will speak for them. If no one pays them, they will say some mindless things.

Seriously separated from the people at the grassroots level, today’s experts and professors can help ordinary people pay attention to the roaming fees and monthly rental fees of a few dollars, because they know that this is a huge sum of money for ordinary people. For small expenses.

  But the experts and professors of later generations said that the poor could not afford to go to school because the tuition was too cheap. They also said that those with no income could rent out their idle houses or run Didi.

This is directly out of touch with the grassroots level, and they don’t know the hardships of the working people at all.

 At this time, experts and professors can still understand the grassroots people...

In addition to this news, there is also the fact that the Three Gorges Dam, which took twelve years to build, is about to be completed...

  In spring in Beijing, poplar catkins and willow catkins flying everywhere are a topic that can never be avoided. Many people are even allergic to it, but what many people don’t know is that these flying catkins and willow catkins once saved the capital.

In the last century, the capital city was plagued by sandstorms. The most feared thing every spring was the yellow sand that covered the sky and blocked the sun. In the 1950s, the dust in the Beijing area was the worst, with an average of 26 dust days in spring.

Even when Jiang Xiaobai went public in the capital, the sandstorms in the capital were very serious. There was also a well-known novel "In the Storm", which described the sandstorms in the capital in detail.

"Not long after they went out, the sky darkened, and the entire universe was covered by yellow sand. It was difficult for people to even breathe. By the time I went out after making two phone calls, the storm outside was blowing fiercely, and the branches were shaking like crazy. Shaking wildly,

 Sand, shavings, sawdust and wood chips swirled in the sky above the entire construction site. As soon as I walked to the scene, I heard the sound of the fir pole breaking and the crunching sound of the binding rope being twisted. Someone shouted: "No way, get out of here, the windshield will collapse soon."

 In some photos, it can be clearly seen that the spring photos of Beijing at that time were like a yellow filter added during the sandstorm weather. At that time, it was even defined as a "city on the edge of desertification". Later, a vigorous greening campaign was carried out. Now in the capital, spring has finally recovered, and there are only poplar catkins and willow catkins flying.

For people like Jiang Xiaobai, who have experienced sandstorms in Beijing over the past century, looking at the flying catkins and willow catkins makes them feel very comfortable. They negotiated at Gongshang Bank in the morning. Such negotiations have been going on for many days.

 The teams of both parties have been increasing. Since the initial intention to cooperate last time, Mr. Huang began to transfer people from Huahua Bank.

At first, there were only about ten people from Huahua Bank who came to the capital with Jiang Xiaobai. Although these ten people were considered a lot, in such negotiations, there were simply not enough people.

 Especially when it comes to various cooperations, the number of people negotiating at Huahua Bank in the past two days has increased to a team of 200 people, and it is still increasing. In the future, it is expected that the number of people in the team may increase to 500 people.

The number of negotiators on the CCB side is also increasing, and has also increased to more than 200 people. There is no way, there are too many things that need negotiation, communication and cooperation, and there is simply no way to finish the negotiations with just a dozen people.

The negotiating team of both parties has increased to more than 500 people, which cannot be accommodated by China Construction Bank, and there are also problems with logistical supply guarantee, so the two parties rented several conference rooms in the hotel to negotiate separately.

With so many people negotiating, Jiang Xiaobai seemed somewhat dispensable, and Jiang Xiaobai would not participate in the specific negotiation process, so Jiang Xiaobai simply took advantage of the good weather to go out and walk around.

Wearing a black windbreaker, with a car slowly following behind him, Jiang Xiaobai strolled through the streets of the capital.

The changes in the capital are getting bigger and bigger day by day. Jiang Xiaobai has not lived in the capital for such a long time in a while. The buildings he saw a few days ago have actually begun to be demolished in the past two days.

 The streets and alleys are full of Olympic slogans, symbolizing the arrival of the next era.

Jiang Xiaobai's cell phone rang. The call was from Li Xiaoliu. There was nothing important. He said that he had received calls from comrades in the countryside a few days ago and that the agricultural tax had been cancelled.

Jiang Xiaobai froze on the spot for a long time. He looked up at the sky in the capital and felt that the sun was a little brighter again.

 The abolition of the agricultural tax will have no impact on the capital, or even on many big cities, but it will have a different meaning on the vast rural areas.

Farming and paying taxes have a history of thousands of years in this land. You can clearly see it when you open a history book. Jiang Xiaobai remembers that in the 1970s and 1980s, paying taxes in Jianhua Village was done by the villagers driving ox carts. , formed a long queue to go to the countryside to pay taxes.
