Chapter 963 [Strong]

Inside the building, a temporary meeting room.

Luo Sheng, Williams and other negotiators sat face to face at a rectangular negotiating table.

The people of Yuzhou didn't talk nonsense. At the beginning of the meeting, Williams made a detailed statement of the trip. Yuzhou hoped to obtain corresponding investment assistance with several Luo Sheng's companies through cooperation.

First of all, there is a communication problem. Yuzhou is still typing telegrams to convey information, and the efficiency is extremely low. All the big dogs in the Middle East can make wireless phones on their mobile phones, which is unbearable.

Then I want to obtain financial assistance from Shengfeng Capital. To put it bluntly, I hope Luo Sheng invests in Yuzhou and helps clean up the mess, which costs a lot of money.

Now the whole world is Luo Sheng who is poor is only money left, and others are all poor and screaming.

"Let me tell me about my conditions."

Luo Sheng looked at Williams and others sitting opposite him, and said without rushingly after a moment: "First of all, the eurozone must relax the control of my Blue Star Technology, Costa delle and other enterprises, and the so-called "digital service tax" with discriminatory nature must be abolished. I cannot accept your robber logic behavior."

The background of the so-called "digital tax" that Yuzhou has developed is the framework set up last year and took effect. It is considered a defensive reaction of Yuzhou in the digital economy field and a product of Yuzhou's protection of its own digital economy industry. To a certain extent, it also limits the expansion momentum of foreign digital giants in the digital market of Yuzhou.

There is basically no Internet company in Yuzhou that can be fought. They are all multinational digital giants outside Yuzhou, including Google, Microsoft, Amazon, and Bluestar Technology, which are all occupying land in this market, and there is no way for Yuzhou people to fight.

Faced with these big players who have not short of money and have formed the Matthew effect, they are simply unable to fight against each other. Neither capital nor technology have obvious competitive advantages.

The so-called digital service tax collection plan is to impose a 4.88% digital service tax on Internet companies with revenues of more than 30 million euros in the euro zone and global revenues of more than 1 billion euros.

There is no doubt that Bluestar Technology, as the world's largest digital giant, has become the number one victim of this digital tax. Last year, Bluestar Technology's revenue in the Yuzhou market exceeded 200 billion euros, and it paid an additional 10.5 billion euros of digital tax, which can be said to be an astronomical figure.

Moreover, these people from the South are constantly asking you for trouble, and as long as they get a chance, they will issue you a sky-high fine. On this issue, Luo Sheng and the technology giants in Silicon Valley in North America are on the same front.

Whether it is Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Luo Sheng's Blue Star Technology, and the Costa del Blue, they have received sky-high fines from the assault committee.

Adding up in scattered ways, Luo Sheng's company's business in Europe has at least 30% of its profits intercepted by the other party. This is not a small amount.

Some media even joked that the assault committee can earn hundreds of billions of euros a year by issuing tickets to Luo Sheng's company and the digital giants in Silicon Valley, which is not satisfactory.

At the meeting, when Williams was about to refute, Luo Sheng raised his hand and stopped him and continued: "No matter what, how do you talk to the digital giants in Silicon Valley? Whether to collect their digital taxes is between you, but this digital tax will either be abolished. Even if it continues to exist, my company will have exemption and privileges in operating its business in Europe. This is the prerequisite for us to reach a framework agreement for this cooperation."

Williams was about to speak, but was interrupted by Luo Sheng again. He was extremely unhappy inside, but he had to endure it if he wanted it.

"I haven't finished speaking yet, you asked me to finish it. At the same time, the eurozone must agree that Star Arrow International's satellite Internet covers the European land, including the market access license for the Beidode system."

The Yuzhou Negotiation Team was very dissatisfied with Luo Sheng's condescending and strong attitude, and was extremely angry, but also very entangled and painful.

On the one hand, they are afraid that overseas capital will occupy Yuzhou and restrict Yuzhou, and the survival ability of local enterprises will be seriously threatened.

On the one hand, if you continue to increase regional protection and do not have the ability to save yourself, no matter how you choose, it is not satisfactory, and there is no solution that has the best of both worlds.

After a while, Luo Sheng finally stopped interrupting the other party. Williams then said: "Mr. Luo, is it a little too much for you to ask for the 'immunity' privilege of 'digital service tax'? The digital giants in Silicon Valley are not going to get furious after seeing it?"

If the exemption is really given, then the so-called "digital tax" is like a piece of waste paper. Williams and others are not stupid. They are very clear that Luo Sheng seems to have taken a step back, but in fact he wants to abolish the digital tax.

Luo Sheng leaned back against the seat chair and looked directly at Williams sitting opposite him: "My physical stores, major offices and branches in the euro zone market have been smashed. This is how your authorities protect foreign assets? I haven't asked you to settle the huge losses in this account. The choice made by a rational investor at this time is to withdraw funds. In fact, I am considering whether it is necessary to withdraw from the euro zone market in a full range."

Hearing this, the Yuzhou negotiating group present was shocked. If Luo Sheng left at this time, the blow to the European economy would definitely be even worse.

Williams felt helpless and had to turn softly: "Mr. Luo, don't say these angry words. The whole world has suffered such a major disaster. As one of the three major economic centers in the world today, if the euro zone cannot recover and revitalize, it will also be a heavy blow to the recovery of the world economy. This is a situation that no one wants to see, and it will also be a loss for you."

The three major economic centers in the world today are Greater China, North America and the Eurozone, which can be called the "three horses" of the global economy. In the post-solar storm era, North America and the Eurozone were basically in a state of shutdown, and two of the three horses were basically shut down.

It is no exaggeration to say that in the context of the post-solar storm era, Greater China is promoting the global economic recovery on its own. Looking around, there is no one to fight.

It's all dragging you down, it's too difficult.

Luo Sheng glanced at Williams and others, and said heartbreakingly: "I am very honest, you don't have money now, and we don't have any money, and we don't have any skills anymore. You have to let me have some ideas to have a reason to help you. We are talking about business, not humanitarian aid. You have to compensate for the shop I've been smashed in your place."

After a rough calculation, the losses caused by being smashed and robbed were at least billions of euros.

Williams patted his palms and backs and said anxiously: "If we have money, we wouldn't have come to you. You can't put down the wrong things like this."

The implication is to want to pay back the debt.

Luo Sheng smiled and said, "If you can find the real murderer, let them compensate; if you can't find it, the whole people will compensate; if you can transfer it from your fiscal expenditure, I don't care what you use, I will never admit this loss. It doesn't matter if you don't have money now. I accept you to write an IOU and give you half a discount on the interest."

Williams said angrily: "Hmph, the euro zone economy has collapsed, which is a heavy blow to you. At worst, don't even think about it."

Hearing this, Luo Sheng shrugged his shoulders and shook his head, sighing to himself: "It seems that the euro zone is really not working. It has fallen to this point. Mr. William, this is an era that is worse than bad. It is obvious that you are worse. The result of mutual harm is that you will be done first. This is an open conspiracy. If you don't accept it, then we will waste it and see who will collapse first."

Williams was furious: "You—!"

Luo Sheng said calmly: "I understand everything. I agree to my conditions and sign the agreement today. At that time, aid investment of no less than 200 billion euros will be fully implemented in the euro zone before the end of the first quarter of next year. There will be 500 billion euros in aid investment in the future."

Luo Sheng continued: "No signing? Then all my institutions will withdraw from the euro zone market by the first half of next year. I won't play with you anymore. You can play by yourself. You can do whatever you want. Even if you cut off all the Ronder Forest, Vienna Forest, Norwegian Forest, it doesn't matter if you make all the chaos in the global climate and natural environment."

The eurozone came to talk this time, but in fact, it was to open the door and let Luo Sheng go to buy high-quality assets at the bottom. If it weren't for the fact that he had no choice but to need money to help him, how could he be the turn to pick up the bargain? He was so popular in Europe that he was very angry.

"What else is there to talk about? It's so damning!" Williams slapped the table and left the table with anger.

...

Forty-five minutes later.

The reporters who were squatting outside the Science and Technology Complex were invited to an open hall on the first floor of the building. At the temporary signing ceremony, Luo Sheng and Williams stood on the same stage, and the two sides worked together to hold a signing agreement document to face all media reporters.

Williams' expression was inspirational, and Luo Sheng also smiled. The members of the respective business negotiation teams on both sides applauded with smiles. When both sides signed the cooperation agreement in front of the public eye of the media, the staff also set off fireworks to celebrate.

The atmosphere of the whole audience was extremely festive, and life was like a play, relying on acting skills. The Hollywood actors were also ashamed of it.

Finally, the staff at the scene took over the agreement document. Luo Sheng and Williams also shook hands politely under the records of the media reporters. As for Williams' smile, there were various MMPs, who were fragrant and had to maintain an elegant and gentlemanly demeanor.

When it was time to ask the question, the reporter named asked, "Can you please reveal the specific details of this strategic cooperation?"

Luo Sheng smiled and replied: "There are too many specific details, and it is difficult to summarize them in detail here, but I can tell you that this is an unprecedented aid plan.' As one of the three major economic centers in the world, the eurozone will play an important role in the global economic recovery in the post-solar storm era. When this global crisis is at a time, the whole world should work together to overcome difficulties."

With this answer, Luo Sheng can temporarily protect the face of the euro zone. If he learns the specific cooperation details, the beaten media present may look extremely ugly.

The media people present were not stupid. There was no free lunch in the world. It would definitely cost a considerable price to impress people like Luo Sheng to help.

However, Luo Sheng is able to help him in an emergency, which is not bad news in general. If he doesn't take action, the situation will only be worse.

Moreover, this name has magical power. Many people believe that as long as there is Luo Sheng’s influence, there is nothing impossible.

On that day, this news spread all over the world. Now paper media is emerging due to the solar storm. News of this cooperation was published on the front pages of major media in Yuzhou for overwhelming coverage.

The news that Luo Sheng plans to invest 203.6 billion euros in aid to Yuzhou has been flooded locally and has indeed played an exciting role. This is the first good news that Yuzhou people have seen since the solar storm.

Over the past decade, Luo Sheng has been the largest creditor in North America. It can be foreseeable that Luo Sheng will become the largest creditor in the euro zone in the post-Solar Storm era.
