Chapter 103 Ugly Country Ball
When Qi Tongwei visited HarperCollins Publishing Group, Chen Jun also received specific information from Qi Tongwei.
Looking at the report, Chen Jun couldn't help but curse: "The U.S. tax department is so damn shady! We actually need to pay about 26 million U.S. dollars in taxes.
He felt very distressed when he thought about giving such a large sum of money to the Ugly government. If he could bring this money back to China, he could do a lot of things.
The tax avoidance method mentioned by Qi Tongwei is indeed a good idea, but the problem now is that the negotiations have entered a critical stage and the other party requires payment of the deposit as soon as possible.
If they fail to pay in time, the whole plan is likely to fail. Therefore, they have no other choice but to hand over the money to the tax department of the ugly country.
Chen Jun also considered applying to his finance department for advance payment of the funds, but eventually gave up the idea. After all, all regions are extremely short of foreign exchange and have no extra funds to spend.
In desperation, Chen Jun had to convey the news to Qi Tongwei through special channels, and said that he would send someone to the Ugly Country to take over the US dollars from him, and would compensate him for the taxes he had paid in excess.
Qi Tongwei didn't care about the compensation at all. He had a lot of money in his previous life and didn't take it too seriously. What he wanted now was to "join the ministry"!
What Qi Tongwei didn't know was that when he came to the United States, the relevant departments conducted a background check on him, and in the process discovered that Liang Qunfeng had suppressed him.
Subsequently, according to the instructions of the leaders, Liang Qunfeng was investigated.
Qi Tongwei originally planned to wait until 1996 when the second son of the Liang family was involved in smuggling before counterattacking the Liang family, but he did not expect that his family would be investigated in advance because of his own reasons.
In this case, I don’t know whether it is a good thing or a bad thing for his family.
However, Qi Tongwei was unaware of all this. At this moment, he was holding a glass of red wine, gracefully moving among the crowd and chatting enthusiastically with the people attending the dinner.
Qi Tongwei's performance was excellent, he showed the image of a mature, steady and charming man.
This was thanks to the diplomatic training he had received over the past two months, which enabled him to handle this occasion with ease.
With his unique charm and masculinity, he won the love and admiration of many people, especially the ladies at the welcome dinner.
If Pei Qianqian hadn't been with Qi Tongwei, many people would have rushed over. Even so, many people put small notes with phone numbers on them in his pockets.
Qi Tongwei pretended not to know. He made full use of this opportunity to communicate with all kinds of people, trying to learn more about the social conditions of Ugly Country and the behavior of the local people.
Knowing yourself and your enemy will ensure victory in every battle. He believes that sooner or later the country will confront the Ugly Country. The more they understand, the more strategies they will have to deal with it in the future.
At the end of the dinner, Qi Tongwei and Pei Qianqian returned to the hotel without any delay.
As soon as she entered the room, Pei Qianqian took out many small notes from Qi Tongwei's pocket.
"I didn't expect that our comrade Qi Tongwei is so popular. How about giving him a call and trying?" She got angry when she thought of the group of women from the Ugly Country taking advantage of Qi Tongwei. If it wasn't for the wrong occasion, she would have lost her temper long ago.
"You, if I really had that idea, I wouldn't have brought you to the dinner. You can see the reason behind these notes, so I won't read them." Qi Tongwei said with a smile.
"Hmph, that's better." Pei Qianqian found a lighter and burned the note.
Qi Tongwei poured a cup of tea, sat on the balcony, and began to review his behavior today and summarize the gains and losses of tonight.
I met a banker tonight, and learned from him that, considering the sales of his three works, it would not be a problem to use them as collateral for a mortgage loan of 1 million US dollars.
"Tongwei, what are you thinking about?" Pei Qianqian hugged Qi Tongwei's neck from behind, interrupting his thoughts.
"I'm thinking about Mexico's foreign exchange policy. It looks like they're in trouble." Qi Tongwei thought for a while and said.
Pei Qianqian asked doubtfully: "What does this have to do with us?"
"How can it not be related? Given Mexico's current situation, it will soon face a financial crisis with a sharp drop in the peso exchange rate and a collapse in stock prices.
This once-in-a-century opportunity must not be missed. If it goes well, you can make more money than writing novels. "Qi Tongwei explained in a low voice.
"Tongwei, do you want to enter the stock market? Will the risk be too great?" Pei Qianqian asked in a low voice. Following Qi Tongwei around during this period of time allowed her to see a lot of things and greatly broadened her horizons.
Qi Tongwei nodded: "Well, such an opportunity must not be missed. Let's follow the Wall Street capital, make a fortune quietly and leave. As for the risk, it is almost zero." He has made the decision, and now all he needs is a trader.
Pei Qianqian looked at Qi Tongwei with a gleam in her eyes: "Okay, I'll listen to you." She murmured to herself. Since being with Qi Tongwei, she has been completely conquered by him.
Qi Tongwei smiled and gently stroked Pei Qianqian's hair: "Don't worry, I won't let you down." As he spoke, his eyes fell on Pei Qianqian's seductive lips, and the fire in his heart was instantly ignited.
Qi Tongwei picked up Pei Qianqian by the waist and walked towards the sofa in the living room...
The next morning, Qi Tongwei woke up from the gentleness of the previous night and punched as usual.
Just as he sat down and poured a glass of water, a quick phone ring interrupted his thoughts. He frowned and answered the phone, "Hello, who is this?"
A strange voice came from the other end of the phone: "Excuse me, is this Mr. Qi Tongwei? We are from our hometown and need to talk to you about something. Is it convenient for you now?"
Qi Tongwei's heart moved and he immediately sat up straight: "It's convenient, you can come up now." Then he gave his address.
He already knew who it was; it should be someone sent by Chen Jun.
After hanging up the phone, Qi Tongwei woke up Pei Qianqian, told her that someone was visiting, and then made tea and waited for the visitor.
Soon three people came, led by a middle-aged man. After both sides exchanged polite words, the other party explained his purpose.
"For some reason, I can't wait until the right time to avoid taxes, so I need the money now. Don't worry, you will be compensated for the tax avoidance."
Qi Tongwei's face turned serious. "Well, I understand, but I don't need to be compensated for the extra part. Does that mean I don't need to pay taxes when I return to China?"
After hearing what Qi Tongwei said, the three of them smiled and seemed very satisfied with his answer.
Qi Tongwei then handed the royalties to the other party, who settled the account.
