Chapter 887: Hundreds of Billions in Subsidies, Are You Going Against It?

[Venus Technology faces a big crisis: a fine of 3 billion US dollars, this price is too heavy]

[The fine exceeds 20 billion, will Venus Technology finally escape the disaster? ]

[Venus Technology was punished by the United States, why is this? ]

[Shocking! Venus Technology sold 100 heavy transport helicopters to Persia]

[Venus Technology's huge order may lose all its money, is it worth it? ]

[The United States has taken a heavy hand on Venus Technology, why? What is the purpose? ]

[A fine from the United States strangles the throat, and Venus Technology faces a new crisis]

...

Various news quickly became hot searches.

A few days ago, Venus Technology won a large order from Persia at the Lion City Air Show, but it did not attract any special attention from various media. After all, the signing ceremony was not made public at the time, and only some interested people knew the news.

Last night, the United States announced sanctions against Venus Technology, and also explained the matter of Venus Technology's illegal export of 100 heavy transport helicopters to Persia.

In this way, Chinese netizens learned that Venusstar Technology had done such a big deal recently.

At this time, the fact that Venusstar Technology and Persia signed a trade order for 100 aircraft in the form of crude oil for aircraft was completely exposed.

On the one hand, many Chinese netizens were excited that Venusstar Technology had such a big order.

In the past, such large orders for high-tech products were almost all from the United States, and now it is the turn of Chinese companies.

On the other hand, Venusstar Technology was fined by the United States, and many people were very worried.

Many netizens are paying attention to how Venusstar Technology will deal with this matter and whether it will pay the fine honestly.

If it does not pay, what will be the consequences?

If it pays, will there be a steady stream of fines in the future?

It seems that no matter how it is dealt with, it will be very troublesome.

"Mr. Cao, how are you going to deal with the fine from the United States?"

Zhao Tianling from AVIC called Cao Yang early in the morning.

He just learned about this news.

If AVIC encounters this problem, he really doesn't know how to deal with it.

There is no way to admit the penalty, but if he doesn't admit the penalty, it will be difficult to survive in the international market in the future.

Of course, the situation of Venustech is a little different.

So Zhao Tianling is not sure what response plan Cao Yang will take.

"Mr. Zhao, regarding the export of Persian crude oil, neither the polar bear nor the EU recognizes the American plan."

"So some of the bans related to the export of Persian crude oil issued by the United States before are invalid."

"This is not only denied by our Venustech."

"The fine from the United States is not because we violated the ban on the export of Persian crude oil, but the rise of Venustech threatens the interests of related American companies."

"They are used to making easy money. Now someone is competing with them, so they will naturally suppress us."

Cao Yang chatted with Zhao Tianling in a very calm mood.

Such a big deal happened last night, and there will definitely be all kinds of public opinion today, and there will definitely be a lot of people calling him.

These scenes are all expected.

"We all understand this truth. The key is that they are now the global hegemon, and no one can ignore their existence."

"If the other party is really determined to deal with Venusstar Technology, it will be very troublesome."

"They may use all kinds of tricks, and even take the method of physically eliminating the technical experts of Venusstar Technology."

"Before, some experts who mastered the core technology in Persia and Polar Bear had inexplicable car accidents."

"I think you still need to pay attention to this matter."

As the general manager of AVIC, Zhao Tianling manages a large number of key enterprises.

His experience in confidentiality and struggle is definitely richer than Cao Yang.

Many things that ordinary people have never heard of may have happened in one of AVIC's subsidiaries.

Especially Zhao Tianling knows that Venusstar Technology still has many important projects in progress.

Not to mention the B-2 project in cooperation with AVIC, even the large transport aircraft, starship, space station and other projects that Venusstar is working on are not small projects.

After any project is successful, it will be very beneficial to China's strength.

And anything that is beneficial to China's strength will definitely be opposed by the United States.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhao, for reminding us. We will pay attention to it."

"Venusstar Technology Group will officially issue a notice today. All personnel are not allowed to go abroad without the approval of the group."

"Even the passports of all R&D personnel need to be handed over to the company for safekeeping."

Cao Yang knew that what Zhao Tianling said was really not a joke.

Even his own security work needs to be strengthened.

Otherwise, he might be "in a car accident" one day.

This kind of thing is really not impossible.

"The American gang believes in the logic of the survival of the fittest. If we don't want to be bullied, we must greatly improve China's overall national defense strength."

"I mentioned to you before about speeding up the development of the B-2 project, and we have also discussed it internally."

"If Venustech is confident that it can successfully develop China's own large stealth bomber before 2016, then the leadership of the project can be handed over to you."

"All the companies under AVIC will fully cooperate with the development of various tasks."

Zhao Tianling obviously didn't just call Cao Yang to gossip about the fine, but to communicate with him about an important project.

The large stealth bomber is too important for China.

Without this thing, China's air force is actually defensive.

Once this strategic-level weapon is available, the air force will begin to shift to an offensive type.

In the face of the ever-changing current situation, this shift is obviously necessary.

The United States will not relax its suppression of China just because you don't develop.

Both Cao Yang and Zhao Tianling are very clear about this.

Now AVIC has given up the project's leadership for the first time and wants Venusstar to take over the project.

Cao Yang can naturally feel the urgency of the relevant departments for this project.

So he didn't hesitate too much and said directly: "Mr. Zhao, Venusstar Technology will never let you down."

"It didn't happen before, it won't happen now, and it won't happen in the future."

"In 2016, we will definitely see our own large-scale stealth strategic bombers appearing in the sky over China."

Zhao Tianling breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Cao Yang say this.

Before making a decision, he was struggling with how to convince the company and relevant departments to accept his proposal.

After doing a good job of persuading, he was worried that Venustech would not be able to handle it, or would not be willing to accept the task.

Fortunately, Cao Yang really did not let everyone down.

Next, the two continued to discuss the project, and even arranged some supporting missiles.

Mi Ying came over several times, wanting to interrupt Cao Yang's call.

So after Cao Yang hung up the phone, he immediately asked, "What's the matter?"

Mi Ying has been with him for so many years, Cao Yang knew that if it wasn't for something more important, the other party would not have such a reaction.

Of course, Mi Ying didn't interrupt his call directly, which meant that the matter was not so urgent that it had to be dealt with immediately.

"Mr. Cao, the relevant departments of Lingnan Province just contacted, and the leaders will come to Venustech for inspection later."

"This time, the two leaders of Lingnan Province should be present together."

"I have postponed all your other meetings this morning."

Although it is not the first time that Lingnan Province has come to inspect, the situation today is obviously a bit special.

A call in the morning, an inspection in the morning, and a heavyweight figure was present.

Under normal circumstances, it would definitely not be arranged like this.

However, considering that Venusstar Technology has just been issued a sky-high fine by the United States, and Lingnan Province came to inspect Venusstar Technology immediately.

If there is no connection between these two things, no one would believe it.

So there is no need to explain more, Mi Ying knows the general background.

Lingnan Province came to inspect, and it must be to express support for Venusstar Technology.

This is a good thing.

As for what kind of support policy will come out, it is hard to guess.

This kind of inspection, Cao Yang must participate, so Mi Ying directly postponed the morning meeting.

"Okay, I know."

"See when I need to go to Venusstar Technology to wait, and I will leave it to you to arrange this morning."

Mi Ying can think clearly, and Cao Yang can naturally understand it.

This kind of inspection usually comes with benefits, and there is no reason not to.

Even tonight's news program on Lingnan TV will definitely include a large section about this inspection.

The relevant domestic news may also be reported in detail.

Even the relevant departments of China will take some actions in the next step.

After all, such an important company as Venustech was bullied by the United States, and the relevant departments cannot have no response at all.

Wouldn't that be disheartening?

...

"Mr. Cao, Lingnan Province fully supports the development of high-tech companies."

"Especially high-tech enterprises in the aerospace field are the key industries that Lingnan Province will develop in the next five-year plan."

"For all the equipment invested by Venusstar Technology in the past three years, Lingnan Province will provide special equipment purchase subsidies for all investment amounts."

"Especially for Venusstar Technology's various equipment investments in the production of Kunpeng heavy transport helicopters and Skyhawk UAVs, 100% of the relevant subsidies can be applied for."

"This time, Lingnan Province has prepared 10 billion yuan of special funds for equipment investment subsidies for Venusstar Technology."

"Don't be under pressure to develop, invest boldly, and we will provide all-round support."

Sure enough, this special inspection by Lingnan Province is to send benefits to Venusstar Technology.

The United States has just announced a fine of more than 20 billion yuan, and Lingnan Province has given 10 billion yuan in equipment investment subsidies.

The taste of this is very obvious.

For Lingnan Province, the choice of this subsidy fund should actually be quite clever.

On the one hand, equipment investment subsidies are indeed feasible.

Many places have equipment subsidies for investment in key projects.

On the other hand, they should have considered the pressure from Venustech this time.

Although it is not certain whether Venustech will eventually pay the fine from the United States, even if it does, with this equipment subsidy, Venustech will not suffer losses.

Of course, these are all speculations in Cao Yang's mind.

In fact, for Venustech, if the production quantity is large enough, the production cost of Kunpeng heavy transport helicopter can be reduced to 100 million yuan.

In this way, even if the fine from the United States is really paid, there is no loss in this business with Persia.

Of course, it must not make much money.

"Thank you for your support."

"Venus Technology is determined to develop the aerospace industry."

"Among the projects we are currently developing, there are various types of aerospace products. In the next few years, there will be some blockbuster products launched on the market every year."

"Especially our space station project, which is expected to start launching at the end of this year and complete the first phase of assembly tasks next year."

"In addition, we are also cooperating with AVIC on new projects."

Although some things involve secrets, it is not appropriate to say too much when there are reporters with long guns and short guns.

Even if it will be processed later, it is not appropriate to say too much.

However, it is natural to talk about some general things.

Otherwise, when the leader comes to inspect, you don't say this or that, which is obviously inappropriate.

Cao Yang's emotional intelligence is obviously not that low.

"Mr. Cao, as long as the production line of the new project is still in Lingnan Province, then for future equipment investment, our Lingnan Province can continue to consider setting up special subsidies."

"I will also communicate with the relevant departments and introduce as many relevant support policies as possible."

"America has a military-civilian complex giant like Boeing, and we in China also need advanced high-tech companies like Venustech."

So far, everyone thinks that Venustech's performance is very impressive.

Not to mention China, even if you look at the world, you can't find other companies that are developing faster.

The key is that Venustech is still in a stage of rapid development, and the future momentum makes people more excited.

America is so anxious because it has seen these changes.

If Venustech is allowed to develop, then Boeing and other giants will have a hard time in the future.

"Yangcheng and Chang'an are the two key bases of the Venusstar Technology Group. All future projects will be in either Yangcheng or Chang'an."

"But what is certain is that the scale of our group's investment in Yangcheng will definitely grow."

The relevant leaders of Lingnan Province still believe Cao Yang's words.

In recent years, whether it is Yangcheng or Lingnan Province, they can firmly occupy the position of the largest city and the largest province in the country in terms of GDP, which is inseparable from the contributions of various enterprises in the Nanshan system.

Especially in the past two years, Honor Technology has emerged as a dark horse and has made a significant contribution to the GDP of Lingnan Province.

As the leaders of Lingnan Province, these output values, whether they occur in Shenzhen or Yangcheng, as long as they are in Lingnan, are no problem.

The group walked around the Venusstar Technology factory for a whole morning before completing this inspection.

This kind of long-term inspection is relatively rare.

And the relevant news, before Lingnan Satellite TV reported it in the evening, Huaxia TV unexpectedly reported it in advance.

Although there was no mention of the inspection by relevant personnel from Lingnan Province, some videos of the inspection did appear.

Obviously, this is to support Venusstar Technology.

The report from Lingnan TV was even more detailed. The 10 billion yuan equipment investment subsidy from Lingnan Province was also reported simultaneously.

Such a large subsidy is rare in Lingnan Province and in the development history of China.

However, this time it is rare that few people think that this subsidy is unreasonable.

"Mr. Cao, we have several satellite launch missions in the second half of this year. The current transportation capacity is relatively tight. Can you help arrange the launch?"

People in the system are very sensitive to some changes.

The development of Venusstar Technology is obviously supported by relevant departments in China.

As the general manager of Aerospace Science and Technology, Qian Junfeng can definitely feel this attitude.

Considering that Venusstar Technology is now suppressed by the United States again, although the other party does not seem to intend to pay the fine, it is still a setback in the development process.

So Aerospace Science and Technology also wants to express their support.

Giving Venusstar Technology some satellite launch missions that are difficult to arrange is a way to express their support.

Even from another perspective, this is also good for Aerospace Science and Technology.

Because they also have costs to launch rockets, and this cost is much higher than that of Venusstar Technology.

After entrusting the launch mission to Venusstar Technology, Aerospace Science and Technology can also save a sum of money.

Maybe this can be shared as a special case of cost reduction and efficiency improvement within the Aerospace Science and Technology Group.

"Mr. Qian, we plan to carry out 128 rocket launches this year. It is not a big deal for us to launch a few more rockets."

"If Aerospace Science and Technology needs any assistance from us, please speak up, Mr. Qian."

Although he knew that the other party handed the project to Venusstar Technology out of good intentions this time, Cao Yang did not need to lower his posture too much.

After all, this is a win-win cooperation.

And it is not the first time for everyone to deal with each other.

"You're right, I have some projects that I'm considering cooperating with you on."

"You know, manned spaceflight missions are our main missions in recent years."

"At the same time, arrangements for space stations and lunar exploration satellites are also being prepared in full swing."

"The development of the Long March 9 heavy-duty rocket is also being prepared simultaneously."

"I think both sides can share some resources on some projects and achieve rapid development together."

Since the relevant departments are so supportive of the development of Venustech, Qian Junfeng naturally doesn't need to have so many concerns.

Some projects that were originally considered sensitive can now be considered for cooperation with Venustech.

This will definitely be helpful in speeding up the advancement of the project.

"No problem, I'll let Zhao Siyu communicate with your people at that time."

It's naturally no harm to have a good relationship with Aerospace Science and Technology.

After the two big guys determined the general direction, the people below can communicate directly.

...

After the United States announced the plan to punish Venustech, it was naturally very concerned about the other party's reaction.

Every move of China is being watched by someone.

As for the $3 billion fine, the official Weibo of Venustech naturally responded.

Needless to say, it was a rebuttal, ridiculing America's excessive behavior, and then saying that it would not pay.

Combined with the actions of Lingnan Province, America basically understood Venustech's response this time.

"David, it seems that Venustech has chosen not to pay the fine."

John did not get angry because of Venustech's reaction.

After all, before officially announcing the plan, they had already discussed some of the possible responses that Venustech might take.

Now it is nothing more than witnessing some of the results of the previous discussion.

"Although they chose not to pay the fine, the punishment is real."

"In the future, if any Nanshan-affiliated company has an account in the United States, the relevant deposits may be frozen."

"In addition, we are also considering asking the European Union to assist in some processing to see if we can put more pressure on Venustech."

Although David was not particularly satisfied with the result, he also knew that the current situation was the result of the efforts of the relevant departments.

If further measures are to be taken, they will be more drastic.

Many American companies also have their own interests in China.

Although General Motors and Ford have failed, many companies such as Procter & Gamble and Coca-Cola still have many businesses in China.

In general, American companies have more business in China than Chinese companies in America, and much more.

So further conflict is definitely not supported by everyone.

Even Boeing wants to sell passenger planes to Chinese airlines and does not want to make the relationship on the surface particularly stiff.

Otherwise, there must be some other measures that the United States can continue to consider using.

"Blocking Nanshan companies in China as much as possible is something we need to consider in the future."

'Otherwise, if we let them mess around in the international market, it will have a very bad impact. '

"I will also push the relevant departments to communicate with allies and let them follow our pace."

Of course, John can't just treat this matter as a thing of the past.

All the struggles have just begun.
