Chapter 736 Entering QiongA brand-new beige Toyota Coaster was parked at the bottom of the administrative building of the Huadian Factory in the Special Economic Zone. Lin Xinjia, who was tired of travel, and Li Jiankun, who came downstairs after hearing the news, stood on the side of the car.On the other side, Jiang Jingchun and others gathered together, happily admiring the big car, pointing and expressing a few opinions from time to time.Minivans are a rare item these days. Tianjin Daifa will not come out until September this year. Not to mention how valuable such imported commercial vehicles are in the eyes of ordinary people."How did you do it?" Li Jiankun asked sideways. Like almost all Chinese people in later generations, he knew about Qiongdao's reversing, but he had never experienced it personally, so his understanding was vague.But he did know the ins and outs of this matter.In the concept of many people in later generations, Qiongdao seems to have always been a tourist resort and a relatively developed economy. In fact, this is not the case. Qiongdao, which has not been connected to the mainland by land since ancient times, is a poor corner. In some dynasties, it was even regarded as a A place of exile for prisoners.The reform policy has been to open up the southern coastal cities first, so Qiongdao cannot be left behind. In 11, in order to ensure the opening and development of Qiongdao, the above issued a "No. Document".Although Li Jiankun had read the specific content of the document in his previous life, he certainly could not remember it in detail now. He only remembered the most critical one, which roughly meant: Qiongdao was allowed to import goods that were in short supply in the local market, including seventeen kinds. Controlled goods, including cars.However, the document also stipulates that it can only be used and sold within the Qiongdao Administrative Region and may not be resold outside the administrative region."When I first went there, I thought it wouldn't be easy. After all, it's a place surrounded by sea. Only later did I realize that there were many ways."Now suddenly there is a place with a lot of imported cars of all styles, why don’t people rush there in droves?More importantly, it's cheap.The latter spread it out and saw, "Hey guys, it's a ticket, more than two thousand yuan."Can Qiongdao have so much foreign currency retained?Li Jiankun can imagine that someone is reversing money, but before going there, he hopes to have a general understanding of the situation so that he can make plans in advance.You know, the policy that Qiongdao has received is duty-free import of cars. Even though a Coaster sells for 80,000 yuan, it is actually still cheap.Simple and crude.In the past, people who wanted to buy imported cars had only one channel, the local material bureaus. They also had to go to government agencies and get approval before they were eligible. In addition, it would take a year and a half to get a chance? I remember that it took a quarter for Lin Xinjia to obtain the approval of the SAR by virtue of his status as a Hong Kong businessman and pick up a Phuket 212.At the same time, this ticket shows the sales price of the twelve-seater Coaster station wagon, which is 4 yuan, because there is a standard for fines, which is about 5-% of the sales price of the vehicle."Chaos!" Lin Xinjia replied, "The local area is actually very poor and can't afford much money, but they are bold and have policies, so some people see opportunities..."Relevant units have obtained loans, but they still cannot use them to import goods and have to go shopping for them.The first is banks, which are inundated. Local banks on the island or surrounding areas are swarming in, competing to issue loans to units that want to import cars. The loan interest rates are soaring, and they are not the same. The monthly interest rate fluctuates from the earliest six percent. to 7%, and some banks have raised it to 8% or even 9%.Even if Li Jiankun doesn't understand this period of history, he can completely guess it."The second is joint ventures. Some car sales companies on the island have partnered with foreign companies since they first imported a batch of cars. Anyway, they can be sold this way. I don't know much about the procedures required, and we probably won't be able to operate them.After Lin Xinjia smiled, he clasped his fingers and said: "I have been here for a few days and already know three ways. First, sell new cars as used cars. The old cars there are in compliance with the regulations when leaving the island, so many of them can only be used for a month or two, or A nearly new car that was a few days old was sold as a used car."Third, like me."Aren’t we not allowed to sell the island? So what if someone sells it secretly?It is impossible to find the car. In this age of limited information, it is difficult to find it. So what should we do? Fine.Look at him, he needs a batch of cars now, is he attracted?But this time he asked Lin Xinjia to go to Qiongdao to be a "vanguard", not for this reason. As long as you have money, you can definitely buy a car. He asked: "What is the capital market situation over there?"According to Lin Xinjia, there are two main groups active in the local capital market.After Lin Xinjia stuffed the ticket back into the boss's bag, he pointed at Coaster and said: "His grandma's price changes every day. For this car, the price in January was 37,900, in May it was raised to 58,000, and now it's 8,000." Ten thousand, it will definitely increase in the future. People from all over the country are running around with money. It doesn't matter that it is not easy to buy a current car, otherwise the price will increase."Importing a large number of cars requires a lot of money and foreign exchange. He vaguely remembered that Qiongdao eventually imported close to 90,000 cars. Even in the 1980s, even if it was tax-free, it would cost at least several hundred million US dollars.However, bank loans are basically soft coins.As Lin Xinjia spoke, he took out a receipt from the black leather boss bag tucked into his armpit and handed it to Li Jiankun.So a second group emerged: those with foreign exchange resources. The composition of these people is very complex. They include spokespersons for a certain place or a large state-owned unit, overseas Chinese businessmen who are optimistic about domestic development prospects, and older brothers who are not following the right path, etc."The exchange ratio of foreign exchange is also different on the island, right?" Li Jiankun asked."Well, people with foreign exchange resources are much better on the island than people in banks. There is no mention of pricing. I heard that there is a price for each transaction. The two parties negotiate and the agreed upon amount will be..."Lin Xinjia recounted what he had learned. Li Jiankun listened quietly. At the same time, he was also thinking about what to do in the past.He had originally imagined a possibility: reversing money openly on the island in the name of Huaqiang Swire Bank.Now based on my vague understanding of history and Lin Xinjia's words, I am sure it is not possible.No one had done this before, and he didn't want to be the first to try it out. Lin Xinjia said that although banks are flocking to the bank, he has never seen any bank with offices or locations. Those who speculate in foreign exchange are more low-key and all activities are private.Secondly, Document No. 11 clearly states that Qiongdao is only allowed to use foreign exchange to reserve imported goods. It's like the person receiving the gift and the person giving the gift are both dishonest.However, if others can do it, so can we. As long as we don't show off too much, it won't be a big problem.If it is not in compliance with the rules, those banks and those who hold foreign exchange resources are one of them. In fact, the whole thing itself is not in compliance with the rules.In this era of barbaric growth, if you really want to do things strictly, it is unlikely that you will achieve anything.Li Jiankun is not so pedantic."Here." After Lin Xinjia reported the situation, he took out a note written on the paper of Xingbao cigarette box from the pocket of his white suit pants and handed it to Li Jiankun.It has a name and a contact information."There is a local snake on the island who has a reliable character. If you encounter trouble, you can go to him." Lin Xinjia explained.The twelve-seater station wagon in front of him was not only his gain - it was used by the company, but also the price he paid for exploring and unblocking relationships on the island.
