Chapter 107: Do you want to resell a car?

"What's wrong with him? It's a bit too early to greet New Year." Fan Wubing was not very interested in Qiu Baohua. If it weren't for the fact that he started his business with him, he really didn't want to have any interaction with him. Moreover, now the Walkman is mainly sold in the mainland market, so his attention to it has naturally decreased.

And what made Fan Wubing feel the most difficult is that Qiu Baohua's foundation has not been cleared yet. If he does any cultural relics smuggling or something, wouldn't it cause trouble for him? Now he is making money every day, so he no longer needs to think about that matter.

However, he still has to ask about what he has to come to him. It is definitely a more important thing to call him at this time.

Sure enough, as soon as Fan Wubing called, he heard Qiu Baohua on the opposite side say excitedly, "Haha, Mr. Fan! Finally, I'm waiting for you to come back!"

Fan Wubing frowned and said, "Mr. Qiu, don't talk about it. What's the matter? I know that your time is expensive and you can't afford to waste it!"

Qiu Baohua smiled embarrassedly, and then said mysteriously, "This time there is a good business to take care of you."

"You want to remittance again?" Fan Wubing turned over and sat up, glanced at his mother, then carefully covered the microphone and asked, "I tell you, this matter is not reliable! Don't say I didn't remind you, it's okay to do remittance occasionally, but it will make mistakes over time! Don't you want to live in prison for the rest of your life, right?"

Qiu Baohua, opposite, immediately responded, "How can I do it? I'm not a fool. This time we are going to play big games. Since it's a good thing, of course I want to pull you into a bunch."

"What the hell is it?" Fan Wubing asked with a frown. He really didn't want to mess with Qiu Baohua anymore.

"Our bosses have joined forces to buy imported cars! Do you think this matter can be profitable?" Qiu Baohua's voice was a little excited.

Fan Wubing was also shocked when he heard this. He was not saying how much money he could make, but was scared by the other party's appetite.

If you want to make money, the profit of buying imported cars must be several hundred percent. Not to mention that it is now, even if it is ten years later, buying cars is a super profitable business. The question is what year is now? It is the beginning of 1985. Even if you buy cars back, you have to find a legal license to be sold!

It is naturally profitable to buy imported cars, but it also needs to be scaled. A few cars are not enough to make a lot of money, but the approval authority for hundreds of imported cars is not something that ordinary people can do.

"What's going on?" Fan Wubing's interest sparked Qiu Baohua.

So Qiu Baohua told Fan Wubing about the reason.

Since Gong Deng’s southern tour in 1984, the superiors have decided to open up fourteen coastal cities, and Hainan, which is adjacent to Hong Kong and Shenzhen, has naturally become a key area for opening up.

At that time, the leaders of the Hainan administrative region were so excited that they could not sleep at night, thinking that the time for Hainan's economic development was up. However, to develop Hainan Island, it must have original accumulation. What should we rely on? Relying on the central government? It is very important, but not enough. Relying on foreign aid? It is impossible.

Finally, everyone came up with a quick way, which was to play on the straw boat and borrow arrows.

The so-called straw boat borrowing arrows means converting the special policies given to Hainan by the central government into real money and silver. In fact, as early as 1983, the State Council approved a document, "Minutes of Discussion on Accelerating the Development and Construction of Hainan Island", which pointed out that the Hainan administrative region can approve the import of industrial and agricultural production materials as needed for production and construction; it can use local foreign exchange to import several consumer goods in the Hainan market shortage (including commodities controlled by the state).

However, this minutes clearly stipulates that the above-mentioned import and export materials and commodities are limited to use and sale within the Hainan administrative region and shall not be transferred outside the administrative region.

Everyone consciously ignored the following text in an understatement.

In fact, in Shenzhen at that time, there were many companies that made money by importing state-controlled goods. In order to use policies quickly and more and complete the original accumulation, Hainan leaders naturally thought of cars. Compared with importing some small appliances, office equipment, etc., it was undoubtedly the most profitable and the most popular heavyweight commodity in the inland market.

But after all, this matter still has to take a lot of risks. It can be said that it is to take the money from the fire. Therefore, the leaders of Hainan decided to do it to a limit, importing about 10,000 cars, striving to earn 200 million yuan, and spend some start-up capital.

Speaking of which, there is no airtight wall. How can such a big thing not cause any storm?

Lonely overseas, Hainan Island, which has been lonely for a hundred years, suddenly became a hot land of turmoil. All Chinese merchants with sensitive sense of smell rushed there with their wallets, and the situation quickly became out of control. Throughout the summer, almost everyone on Hainan Island was talking about cars. Any teahouse, restaurant, hotel, shop, agency, factory, school, newspaper, or even kindergarten or nursery, a word that makes people dizzy is cars.

"It's been more than half a year since this matter has been hot, and you remember that the yellow flowers are cold!" Fan Wubing couldn't help but sigh when he heard this news, hating that he had missed another good opportunity to make money.

"That's not the case. In fact, the good times have just begun." Qiu Baohua explained.

In summer, the first batch of imported cars were on the island, and the entire Haikou city was turned into parking lots.

Imported cars can only be sold on the island, but there are no solutions. According to regulations, if they are lost outside the island, they must be punished. Of course, the punishment method is generally a fine. With the acquiesce of the leaders of the Hainan administrative region, the Industrial and Commercial Bureau actively cooperated. A car only needs to pay a fine of four or five thousand yuan, and can issue a certificate, and then load it out of the island in a plain manner and sell it to the mainland.

In the meantime, corruption, bribery, bribery, and all activities of committing crimes are openly carried out in the sun.

Qiu Baohua said, "In half a year, Hainan has signed a total of nearly 90,000 vehicles for import approvals, ordering more than 70,000 foreign goods, and has issued more than 50,000 letters of credit. The total amount of imports is almost 300 million US dollars. In September, a large number of imported cars in Hainan attracted the attention of the above. The State Council sent people to investigate. The reporting materials of the Hainan Administrative Region Government are very different from the actual situation. First, all cars imported from Hainan are sold on the island (all car invoices are covered with the words "only for use on the island" and "not allowed to leave the island", which is a fact). Second, there are less than 15,000 vehicles that have arrived at the moment (this is also a fact, but the reporting materials do not mention the tens of thousands of cars that have been shipped and are breaking the waves towards Hainan). Third, Hainan has very strict management of imported materials and is not allowed to leave the island, and violators will be punished."

"Hehehehehe--" Fan Wubing sneered after hearing this, thinking that Hainan is worthy of being at the forefront of the storm, and he is so particular about doing things and speaking. No wonder many people fall into office in Hainan.

Fan Wubing could almost imagine that while the administrative district government reported this material, thousands of imported cars were unloading continuously at the port of Haikou City.

Of course, Fan Wubing's guess is definitely correct. In fact, just one month after the State Council investigated the imported cars in Hainan in September, Hainan approved at least 10,000 cars to be imported. In November, the Hainan Administrative Region still stated in a telegram to the State Council Special Administrative Region that so far, all the cars imported from Hainan Island were sold on the island.

Then cars are not small things like diamonds. No one noticed that thousands of imported and left the island, but they were ignored by everyone in the world. This was too rampant. By the end of the year, the State Council Special Region Office no longer believed in Hainan's report.

"Our big bosses have already received news that the leaders of Hainan are going to be punished for this, and the time for us to get rich has come!" Qiu Baohua said to Fan Wubing.

"What do you mean?" Fan Wubing felt a little strange. Since the above people have begun to thoroughly investigate the incident of imported cars in Hainan, how could he still have a chance to make a fortune?

Qiu Baohua said excitedly, "Our big boss's backstage is very powerful! Very powerful! How could a few bosses in Hainan have such great courage? To be honest, those are just scapegoats! I can't tell you too much in detail. In short, a large number of cars are going to the island now, and these approval documents are available to be sold in the mainland! We just want money, a lot of money! But we can't pass through the public! Otherwise, too many numbers will cause trouble! Even if you have hundreds of millions of dollars now, you can eat it! Replacing the store will be a few hundred percent profit!"

Several hundred million! Fan Wubing began to consider whether he had a share of the pie. Even if he removed the channel expenses, his remaining profit would definitely be more than 100%, investing 100 million, making 100 million, investing 200 million, making 200 million. This temptation is really too great, and it is more than ten times greater than the profit from remittance in the past?

In fact, this kind of behavior is neither illegal nor criminal. It just takes advantage of the lack of the system and takes advantage of a loophole, but this loophole can create several billionaires, real billionaires at once.

However, this impact was very bad. Once the gate opened, the situation became uncontrollable. Get an approval document and reselling a car could make tens of thousands of yuan. People in Hainan were in a state of madness, and everyone competed to approve documents and resell cars. In the first half of 1984, Hainan had only more than 2,000 imported cars. By July, the district government approved the import of more than 10,000 cars at once, which was thirty-six times higher than the monthly average in the first half of the year. In just half a year, nearly 900 companies appeared on the island, all heading straight for cars. Even the troops participated in the major operation of transporting vehicles out of the island. The navy used warships to replace all the cars with military license plates in the name of adjusting defense. After unloading the ship in Zhanjiang, the military license plates were removed and taken back to Hainan to continue transporting the second batch.

Although Fan Wubing didn't know who Qiu Baohua's backstage was, there was no doubt that he could steadily run the fishing boat in such a big event until the last moment when he showed his minions and took away the biggest piece of fat. This man's background was quite strong. Following him, there were only benefits and no harm.

At this time, Fan Wubing had basically figured it out. Although the gimmick that had been made in Hainan before was big, it was just smoke bombs. There were only a few thousand imported cars sold on the island to the mainland, and the real big head was behind. At this time, there was a scapegoat in front, and a secret visit to Chen Cang came to take the opportunity to enter the mainland market, minimizing the real risks.

No wonder Qiu Baohua's bosses have to take action now because they have already chosen the scapegoat!

"Brother Qiu, how much does it cost?" Since the fat meat is in place, Fan Wubing will certainly not miss this opportunity. Growing in this era of rising heroes, it is really a bastard if he has money but doesn't make money.

"I guess, it should be fine if you take 100 million, right?" Qiu Baohua knew some of Fan Wubing's background, and knew that he had a few industries that made a lot of money, especially the Jianlibao factory, which was a cash cow, not to mention that he was recently selling computers and other high-tech equipment to American companies.

"Can you please?" Fan Wubing asked.

Qiu Baohua felt something unexpected. Although he knew that Fan Wubing was rich, he did not expect that he could not even take 100 million. He was stunned for a moment before answering, "Mr. Fan, this is a bit beyond my expectations. Why don't you wait first and I report to the boss before talking about it?"

"Then hurry up! My money will be removed at any time!" Fan Wubing urged.

Qiu Baohua agreed repeatedly. As expected, less than twenty minutes later, he called the phone again and said to Fan Wubing, "Mr. Fan, our boss agreed, and I am very happy to cooperate with such a capable boss. If you have a way to get 200 million US dollars to invest, then our profit will be about 300 million US dollars. Without saying much, we have to make a lot of efforts in this matter. We need to deal with it from top to bottom. The boss said that more or less, we will give you a profit of 100 million US dollars."

"Okay, then that's it! I'll transfer the money to your account within three days!" Fan Wubing immediately agreed.

"Don't worry, the main thing is to turn over and clean up the money! The amount of money you deserve will be paid back to you before the Spring Festival!" Qiu Baohua was worried that Fan Wubing would be uneasy, so he emphasized again.

"Trade." Fan Wubing hung up the phone.

Seeing Zhang Mei and Fan Ting and Fan Kang staring at him, he noticed that the voice he was just talking was a little loud, so Fan Wubing said shyly, "Hi, sorry, someone gave red envelopes during the Spring Festival. The red envelopes are a little bigger, so I was a little excited."

"What a big red envelope that can make you happy like this?" Fan Ting felt a little suspicious. She felt that her brother had always had a big appetite and could not take the 18 million yuan of dollars into consideration. There must be something strange about this.

"One hundred million!" Fan Wubing replied calmly.

"Ah?" The three of them were scared.
