Chapter 495: Expanded Meeting Please subscribe and vote monthly. Thanks. Just when New Star Company started construction of the space hotel project, the Chinese central government officially announced that it would separate the National Space Administration, which was originally jointly managed by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the General Armament Department, and establish a space agency based on this. The first director of the General Administration of Development was Lu Huiwen, the former director of the National Space Administration. The first thing Lu Huiwen did when he took office was to rush to the Light of the Future Company and visit Sun Zesheng. Before Sun Zesheng decided to form New Star Company and focus on developing the space industry, Lu Huiwen was definitely the top expert in the space industry in the country, but now all this is no longer the same. The aerospace industry has always been dominated by the state. After the emergence of New Star Company, the national team has fallen far behind New Star Company. Lu Huiwen knew some inside information. Guan Zhiqin, who had been identified as the successor, had publicly advocated the promotion of Sun Zesheng as the first director of the Space Development Administration. Guan Zhiqin's proposal was agreed by several leaders of the Central Political Bureau. It was just that Sun Zesheng did not have this ambition, and the throne of the first director finally fell into the hands of Lu Huiwen. Lu Huiwen knew very well that in order to secure this position, the first thing that needed to be solved was the passive situation of the Space Development Administration in developing the space industry. At the very least, it could not lag too far behind New Starry Sky Company. If he could catch a ride on New Starry Sky Company, That's the best. Of course, the best situation is that Sun Zesheng is willing to let New Starry Sky Company accept the state's incorporation, turn the private company into a public-private partnership, and then become a state-owned enterprise. "However, this possibility is very slim. Not to mention that Sun Zesheng is unlikely to agree, the central government cannot afford the political consequences of doing so. Lu Huiwen will never make political mistakes. The best result he is seeking now is to get Sun Zesheng's support for his work. Lu Huiwen originally had some friendship with Sun Zesheng. He had previously talked with Sun Zesheng on behalf of the National Space Administration. The construction of the Tiangong-2 space station involved his negotiations with Sun Zesheng. Lu Huiwen first chatted with Sun Zesheng for a while, then changed the subject and began to tell Sun Zesheng about the various practical difficulties faced by the Space Development Administration, and that he, as the new director, had taken office, and everything was dark, and many tasks were troubling. No idea. Sun Zesheng understood what Lu Huiwen meant. In order to prevent Lu Huiwen from opening his mouth, he only cautiously stated that he would help Lu Huiwen do what he could. Lu Huiwen made several requests to Sun Zesheng. The first request is that Sun Zesheng can share the technical information of the space hotel with the Space Development Administration. The Space Development Administration is not asking for nothing, and can give Sun Zesheng a certain amount of financial remuneration. The second request is to hope that Sun Zesheng will continue to help the Space Development Administration build Sky 2. The Space Development Administration intends to refer to some technical information of the space hotel to expand Tiangong-2 and increase the usable area of ??Tiangong-2. The third request is that Sun Zesheng can sell several Hope-level passenger spacecraft, cargo spacecraft, and armed spacecraft to the Space Development Administration. It's best to get a better price. The fourth request. I just hope that Sun Zesheng can allow the astronaut brigade and scientific research team under the Space Development Administration to become part of Sun Zesheng's technical personnel team. At least some work can be subcontracted to the Space Development Agency. The fifth request is that Sun Zesheng can develop the Moon-class spacecraft as soon as possible. Bring helium 3 back from the moon as soon as possible. The sixth request is that the Space Development Administration intends to hire Sun Zesheng as chief consultant. Sun Zesheng calmly listened to several requests from Lu Huiwen. These requests did not exceed his expectations, whether they were for technical information. Still needing spaceships is the fastest way for the Space Development Agency to strengthen the national team in the shortest time. It was him instead. He will do the same. Sun Zesheng had seriously considered these issues before Lu Huiwen came. As soon as Lu Huiwen brought it up, Sun Zesheng made his request. He can give technical information and spaceships to the Space Development Administration, and he can even train astronauts on his behalf, but he needs to get enough benefits. In other words, he wants to gain enough profits to make up for his losses. After Lu Huiwen breathed a sigh of relief, he asked Sun Zesheng what exchange conditions he wanted. If he could agree, he would agree immediately. If he couldn't agree, he could report it to his superiors. Sun Zesheng said that he could provide the Space Development Administration with everything they needed for free. In exchange, he wanted two things, one was a license and the other was tax incentives. The so-called license covers three aspects. One is the production license, which means that the country must allow him to choose to produce products all over the world, including mainland China.The place produces a variety of high-precision products. For example, if he feels it is necessary to produce a hope-level space armed spacecraft, he can put it into domestic production. Another license is the export license. If he puts the space armed spacecraft into domestic production, then if a foreign customer wants to import it, the customs must let it go and cannot stop it. Also, the production of these high-precision products is not subject to state supervision. As for the tax benefits, it is very simple. Just extend the preferential period of tax reduction and exemption enjoyed by New Star Sky Company. It will have to be extended for seven or eight years no matter what. After Lu Huiwen heard Sun Zesheng¡¯s conditions, he felt cold air coming out of his back molars. The tax benefits are limited. Apart from the long time required, there is still a lot of room for negotiation. However, the requirements for the license are a bit high. The State Council's control over industry is still quite strict. Private companies are not allowed to get involved in many industries that are said to be related to the national economy and people's livelihood, such as the extraction and import of crude oil, the production and manufacturing of military aircraft, missiles, etc. , all monopolized by the state level. Let alone space armed spacecraft, even if it is a civilian spaceship, in the past, private companies were not allowed to intervene. The main reason is that Sun Zesheng's technology is too advanced and he has placed his production bases in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and South Sudan. The central government is short-handed and out of reach. In addition, in this regard, Sun Zesheng has no choice but to ask for help. If you turn a blind eye, you will pretend you haven't seen it. ¡°But once Sun Zesheng is allowed to build a factory in China, it will break a hole in the Iron Curtain, just like when the State Council issued regulations to allow private capital to enter the space field. Strictly speaking, the nature of Sun Zesheng's request this time is very different from the last time the State Council relented. The last regulation issued by the State Council stipulated that half of the state-owned capital must participate before private capital can enter and form companies related to the space industry. This time, Sun Zesheng clearly requested that the state cannot regulate it. In other words, whether state-owned capital can participate is not the final say of the State Council, but Sun Zesheng. In addition, regulatory authorities do not have the power to supervise it. This is simply an independent economic kingdom. By comparison, the tax benefits are almost child¡¯s play. If it were someone else who made such a request, Lu Huiwen would have spit on him, but for Sun Zesheng, he really didn't dare to do that. Putting aside the technological advantages that Sun Zesheng possesses, and considering the actual conditions alone, Sun Zesheng has produced multiple spaceships in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and South Sudan, as well as a lot of high-precision military equipment. The Chinese government has no clue about the production of these things, and there is no place to approve it even if it wants to. If the Chinese government does not agree to Sun Zesheng's request this time, Sun Zesheng will at most continue to produce these high-tech products abroad. The losses suffered by Sun Zesheng will be minimal, but the losses suffered by the Space Development Administration and the Central Government The loss would be huge. Once Sun Zesheng puts his production base in China, even if he only puts part of the production capacity of New Star Company in China, the promotion effect on China will be obvious. The promotion of employment, profits and taxes can be put aside. Simply speaking, it will be much more convenient for China to purchase spacecraft, and the exchange of technology will also be much more convenient. Lu Huiwen did not immediately reply to Sun Zesheng, but said that he would report Sun Zesheng's request to the superiors. Lu Huiwen acted quickly. After returning, he immediately reported to Chief No. 1. The matter was so big that it was not convenient for the No. 1 leader to give an immediate reply, so he proposed to convene a meeting of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau. Several big shots from the Central | Central | Political | Bureau failed to reach a unanimous opinion at the meeting. Some even targeted the No. 1 Director and the newly promoted Central | Central | Political | Bureau Guan Zhiqin, a member of the Standing Committee, blasted them for not being able to restrain Sun Zesheng, allowing him to open his mouth to the national lion and set such a bad precedent. In order to avoid suspicion, Chief No. 1 remained silent and did not express his position, while Guan Zhiqin argued hard and counted Sun Zesheng's various contributions to the country. A total of seven members of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the CPC voted on Sun Zesheng's request after some debate. The vote was three to three, with as many opponents as supporters. Everyone turned their attention to Chief No. 1, but he was the only one who had not made a clear stance. Head No. 1 was still inclined to agree to Sun Zesheng's request, but he was still Sun Zesheng's father-in-law, and he had to avoid suspicion on some matters, so he abstained from voting and proposed convening an enlarged meeting of the Central Political Bureau to specifically deal with Sun Zesheng. A large discussion was held on the requirements. Head No. 1 also intends to take this opportunity to provide a realistic ideological education to the leaders of the party and the country so that their minds can keep up with this rapidly changing era.?. The enlarged meeting was convened soon. In addition to the Standing Committee of the Central Political Bureau, there were also members, alternate members, members of the Secretariat, State Councilors, and relevant ministries and commissions of the State Council. principal.
