Chapter six hundred and seventy-ninth encounter difficulties
Facts have proved that in a relaxed environment, people can relax very well.
After two days of playing wildly with the children in the streets and alleys of Chengdu, on Monday, Mr. Shen started his busy work in high spirits.
There are only two weeks left until the scheduled opening of the site on January 1, 2007. Xiaoniao.com still has a long way to go if it wants to become an instant hit.
The first batch of Dream Pads has already been sent to 15 countries, and other countries have successfully arrived at directly-operated stores. However, at the port of Bilbao in Spain, they encountered difficulties from the immigration quarantine department.
Xiao Qi has no favorable impression of Spain at all. It is true that Germany is the most difficult country in Europe to deal with China, but under normal circumstances, Germany rarely uses despicable means and usually attacks directly.
But Spain is different. They often do evil in secret.
For example, the famous shoe-burning incident was to incite the masses to vent their dissatisfaction with China's manufacturing, and then all the police disappeared. After the shoe-burning was completed, they pretended to arrest a few people, and finally used diplomatic rhetoric to settle the matter.
It is said that Europeans are lazy and extremely inefficient, but here there is still a hierarchy.
In Europe, the laziest and most lazy countries are undoubtedly the four countries: Spain, Portugal, Greece and Italy.
Welfare in these countries is very good. If you don't work, you can live on government relief and support your family. So how can they have the enthusiasm to work?
He sleeps until 9 o'clock in the morning, goes to work after breakfast at 10 o'clock, has lunch at 2 o'clock, starts work at 4 o'clock, and eats dinner from 10 o'clock to 12 o'clock... Basically, after Xiao Qi heard about such a thing, he
Connecting them with the descendants of Marshal Tianpeng.
If no financial crisis breaks out in such a country, it can only be said that God has no eyes.
The tax rate in Spain is very high. The value-added tax other than food is 18%. This is still an indirect tax. Direct taxes are higher and there are more varieties.
Xiao Qi has registered a local company called "Spanish Fairy Trading Company" in Spain, but the high tax rate still makes the price of dream pads generally 5% higher than in the United States.
But Spain won’t do it anymore. You pass all the taxes on to us Spaniards. How is this okay?
Moreover, Xiao Qi's strict identity verification system prevents Spanish people from buying in European countries with lower tax rates. Therefore, the Spanish government is angry and is preparing to force Fairy Company to pay punitive special income tax by means of blocking. The reason
The dream pad is suspected of being sold at huge profits.
All right.
It seems that many foreign taxes are weird, and even a company's profits have to be controlled.
We can't sue you for selling at low prices, but we can sue you for selling at huge profits. This kind of shamelessness is really impressive.
Xiao Qi knew that this was just an excuse, they were just jealous.
But the young man does not want to bow to the Spanish tax department, because if he gives in, the United States, Britain, France, Germany and other countries behind him will not be vegetarians. They will impose all kinds of weird and punitive taxes.
Fairy Company is on the verge of tears.
Therefore, as soon as he received the news, Xiao Qi posted the news on the official website of Dream Pad.
"Due to the Spanish government's unreasonable difficulties, Dream Pad was stranded at the port of Bilbao. Fairy Company regretfully announced that Dream Pad will not be sold in Spain. The ship will be diverted in three days, and this batch of supplies will be added to
British and French fans. Spanish fans who have paid for reservations, please apply for a full refund through your reservation user ID. Fairy Company sincerely apologizes for the inconvenience caused to you."
As soon as this front-page news came out, the whole world was in an uproar.
Especially the fanatical fans in Spain saw that dream pads from the United States, Japan and South Korea had already been piled in the warehouse. Those of them who were further away were eagerly waiting for the news of the dream pads arriving every day.
Unexpectedly, the things have arrived now, but they are blocked at the port and cannot come in. The reason is the country’s unreasonable difficulties!?
Let's go and find out. Well-informed Spanish fans soon broke the news. This is because the Spanish government was unhappy when they saw Fairy Company making money, and wanted to get some benefits from it, so they came up with a weird "suspected profiteering sale."
Punitive taxes amounting to 5 million euros!
Are you crazy about money?
This was the first reaction of fans around the world when they saw this news revealed.
But there are also happy people, such as Britain and France.
English gentlemen and French elegant people all praised the Spanish government's idiotic behavior. It was so internationalistic and manly!
Although Spain has only been allocated 100,000 Dream Pads due to its sparse population, no matter how few mosquitoes there are, they are nothing but meat, and they can satisfy the wishes of 100,000 fans in the UK and France!
As a result, fans from both countries came forward and requested Fairy Company to open the pre-order platform for both countries as soon as possible. British fans and French fans promised not to let a Dream Pad fail!
Regarding their behavior of gloating and taking advantage of someone else's misfortune, Spanish fans who were already depressed and irritable suddenly became angry. Do you guys still have any humanity? There are already so few of us, and now we don't even have one. It's a rip-off.
It’s not such a scam, right?
However, France and Britain are really not to blame for this. It is all the fault of the idiotic and greedy Spanish government.
The Dream Pads that had been received and were about to be received were gone, and they were ridiculed by Dream Pad fans all over the world. The Spanish people, who were always good at demonstrations and criticizing the government, suddenly broke out.
Government buildings, the port area, the streets of Madrid... hundreds of thousands of Dream Pad fans gathered immediately and staged large-scale protests.
Especially at the port of Bilbao, where Dream Pad was impounded, thousands of fanatic fans armed with wooden sticks and Molotov cocktails attacked the defense lines of the military and police. The number of people was increasing, and the port urgently called the garrison for help.
Media around the world immediately reported this chaotic scene, especially the footage of the enthusiastic fans shouting "I want a dream pad" attacking the defense line, which became a must-show for every TV station and newspaper.
