"Does this mean that if you don't agree to this condition, you can get this loan?" Lin Hongfei keenly grasped this point.

"Theoretically, that's the case, but I don't think you can accept the other conditions," Thomas said with a wry smile on his face, handing Lin Hongfei a copy of the materials written in both Chinese and English, "This is our condition, you can take a look." ”

After reading the information on the loan conditions of Citibank, which hides the shadow of the US government, Lin Hongfei was silent: US telecommunications companies must be allowed to become shareholders of United Communications, and the shareholding ratio must not be less than 20%;

Citibank must have the qualification to review the financial status of United Communications Corporation anytime and anywhere, so as to ensure that Citibank's loans will not be diverted for other purposes, especially in military research and development, and Citibank is entitled to demand early recovery of loans once it is found that there is any behavior that harms Citibank's interests;

In order to ensure the interests of Citibank, Citibank has the right to make corrections to the wrong decisions of Guqi Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd. to ensure that Citibank's interests are not damaged......

Compared with these extremely harsh conditions, it is completely negligible to suggest that United Communications Company use the latest CDMA communication technology developed in the United States, and that the Citibank loan obtained must purchase CDMA technology related equipment. Although these conditions are also unacceptable to Lin Hongfei: Nima! Although CDMA mobile communication technology is indeed a good technology, with the "good" habit of you Americans who have always left a "back door" in the high-tech technology equipment sold to other countries, can you not make a fool of yourself here? When the time comes, Lao Tzu still has a secret to speak of?

In a trance, Lin Hongfei suddenly had a sense of absurdity in reading the unequal treaties signed by the Qing government and the foreign powers in the history textbook.

"That's what you're going to do at Citibank?" Lin Hongfei raised the Chinese-English comparison information in his hand, and the expression on his face seemed to be smiling.

"That's right, that's Citibank's condition." Thomas said with a wry smile, biting the four words "Citibank" very hard, "It is also a condition that must be accepted." ”

"Then please Mr. Thomas tell you the person in charge of the bank, there is no need for us to meet, the differences are too great, there is no possibility of negotiation at all, and I do not see the slightest sincerity of Citibank."

What the? Don't even meet each other?

Hearing Lin Hongfei say this, Thomaston was anxious, opened his mouth, and was about to speak. was interrupted by Lin Hongfei, "I don't understand, it's just a simple financial loan, guaranteed by our Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd., which is enough to ensure the repayment ability of United Communications Company." Why does Citibank have to attach so many conditions of political and economic inequality? Mr. Thomas, please tell the person in charge of your bank when you get back. For the emergence of such a situation. I deeply regret it...... In addition, I will not see you off when you leave, and here I wish you a smooth journey in advance. ”

One of Thomas's mouths opened like a hippopotamus: What? Not only did he not meet, but Lin Hongfei didn't even do the most basic send-off etiquette? Doesn't that mean that the two sides have completely torn their faces in this matter, and there is no longer any possibility of cooperation?

At the thought of this, Thomas wanted to cry: who can tell me. What the fuck is going on?

This question Thomas should have asked Lin Hongfei, if he asked Lin Hongfei, Lin Hongfei would tell him: The reason is that your U.S. government and Citibank feel too good about themselves.

…………………………………………

The loan cooperation with Citibank has come to an indefinite standstill, and Lin Hongfei must notify the Ministry of Radio, Film and Television, the Ministry of Electronics, the Ministry of Electric Power and the Ministry of Railways, as well as Sister Rong. After all, when Lin Hongfei decided to get involved, one of the prerequisites for being able to become a controlling shareholder was that he was responsible for solving all the construction funding problems.

The conditions seem unfair, don't they? But in Lin Hongfei's view, there is nothing fair or unfair about this, and in another five years, if you can use this condition to enter the telecommunications industry, or engage in the most profitable wireless paging, mobile communications, and possible World Wide Internet access services in the future, any interest group can wake up with a smile when you sleep, and you have taken the lead, even if you have troubles, it is also the troubles of happiness.

The representatives of the Ministry of Electronics, the Ministry of Electric Power, the Ministry of Radio, Film and Television, the Ministry of Railways and Sister Rong are naturally not very happy, their faces are not very good-looking, Lin Hongfei swore before that he could bring in at least 1 billion US dollars, and it may reach 2 billion US dollars in loans for the company's network construction work, and it is precisely because of this that everyone reluctantly agreed to his request for holding, but now, Lin Hongfei, the bastard, actually said that he may not be able to get a loan?!

However, after listening to the loan conditions of Citibank introduced by Lin Hongfei, the deputies who were full of anger immediately released them again: such conditions, not to mention Lin Hongfei, no one can accept them, and even if they accept them, it is impossible to agree, after all, fundamentally speaking, United Communications Company is a serious state-owned telecommunications company, which can be called the lifeblood of the country, how can the lifeblood of the country be in the hands of people who have ill intentions about themselves?

"We ...... Is it possible to seek a special grant from the state's finances? Since having the benefits promised by Lin Hongfei, Ke Changsheng's attitude towards Lin Hongfei has changed greatly, and the whole person is extremely enthusiastic. It is also to serve the country's economic construction, why is the communication infrastructure of the General Administration of Telecommunications invested by the state, and our joint communications company is paid for by ourselves? Could it be that we were raised by our stepmothers? ”

"Our United Communications Company's self-raising development funds are only a prerequisite for us to carry out a business focusing on unlimited paging and digital mobile communications, the state only symbolically allocates us 100 million US dollars in foreign exchange, and we have to raise all the rest of the money ourselves, only under such conditions, those bastards of the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications and the General Administration of Telecommunications can not be so noisy," Lin Hongfei smiled bitterly, "Even the heads of the cabinet need to weigh and balance the interests of all parties......

As soon as Lin Hongfei said this, everyone was silent: Indeed, the original intention of everyone to set up this joint communications company was to watch the General Administration of Telecommunications make a fortune in the telecommunications market, and their four departments looked red-eyed and wanted to join forces to get a piece of the telecommunications market, but the country has worked hard for decades to invest decades of money and energy in the country's post and telecommunications industry to develop to the current level. The United Communications Company does not even have the qualifications to be established, and the state can give a special foreign exchange allocation of 100 million US dollars, which is already taking care of its own side.

Lin Hongfei is right, it is one thing for the central government to allow the United Communications Company to set up and start war-related businesses, but for the sake of balancing interests, the support that can be given to the United Communications Company can only go so far, otherwise the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications will not have to turn against the sky?

"What then?" The representative of the Ministry of Radio, Film and Television spread his hands and smiled wryly, but his eyes looked at Lin Hongfei fixedly, "Our Ministry of Radio, Film and Television can squeeze out a little money, but the millions of RMB money is a drop in the bucket compared to such a huge investment." ”

This sounds annoying, so it's better not to say it.

However, the representatives of the Ministry of Electronics and the Ministry of Electric Power followed suit, and immediately followed the representatives of the Ministry of Radio, Film and Television to echo, "Yes, yes, we have this heart...... But although it's a drop in the bucket, there is always one point, why don't you use it first? ”

They all thought that it was impossible for Lin Hongfei to ask for this money, but they all underestimated the thickness of Lin Hongfei's face, for Boss Lin, who is now crazy about money, no matter how thin the mosquito legs are, it is also meat, and he didn't even hesitate, "Well, since everyone is so enthusiastic, then I'm not welcome, and I will personally call the ministers to express my gratitude when I go back." ”

The expressions of the representatives of the Ministry of Electronics, the Ministry of Electric Power, and the Ministry of Radio, Film and Television were immediately like swallowing a handful of live flies at once, and the kind that flew around after arriving in the stomach: How can you Lin Hongfei be so unparticular and roast us on the fire?!

Before this, the minister did not allow himself to come up with money, but now he is representing the ministry after all, and as soon as he says this, it is impossible for the minister to think of money.

Sister Rong's representative didn't speak, but kept frowning and thinking, Sister Rong's representative is the manager of Sister Rong's business, with excellent ability, and is trusted and respected by Sister Rong, naturally she also knows that the relationship between Lin Hongfei and Sister Rong is extraordinary, in this case, Sister Rong should be obligated to reach out, right? Thinking of this, he politely said to Lin Hongfei, "Mr. Lin, can I go out and make a call?" ”

"Of course." Lin Hongfei nodded, but he was re-examining his financial strategy in his heart: the total investment in the first phase of infrastructure construction this year is about 400 million to 500 million US dollars, which means that there is no need for him to prepare all the funds in place at one time, and even there is no need to prepare all the expenses required for all the projects this year at one time.

It is necessary to know that the construction of such large-scale key projects, there has never been a one-time payment of the full amount, are based on the construction schedule to develop a payment schedule, the entire cost of the first phase of the project, must wait for the completion of the first phase of the project and trial operation for a period of time, to determine that there is no problem with the equipment will not pay the final payment, only stable operation for one or two years, to determine that there is no hidden danger, this time will be paid off.
