The Rebirth of Wealth

Chapter 1412: Distant monopoly case

On February 19, Li Dong returned to Pingchuan.

Of course, it wasn't a cargo plane, it went back by civil aviation.

It's okay for the freight plane to deliver to others. Li Dong is too lazy to suffer that crime.

At the same time that Li Dong returned to Pingchuan, something big and small happened again in the business community.

On the 19th, the Ministry of Commerce issued a notice that the Coca-Cola Company's acquisition of Huiyuan Company will have an adverse effect on competitors. Therefore, the Ministry of Commerce made a decision to ban the acquisition according to law.

This is the first unaccepted merger and acquisition case since the implementation of the antitrust law in August 2008.

Despite the long-term anticipation, when the official announcement came out, it still caused shock to the business community.

On the same day, the heads of many groups of China Resources, Bailian and Suning rushed to Beijing and went straight to the Ministry of Commerce!

The heads of several major groups went to Beijing this time without any cover.

Even Zhang Jindong, the head of Suning, was interviewed by the media in Beijing and said bluntly that he went to Beijing this time to come from afar!

The establishment of a retail industry association in the distance has broken the laws of the market and undermined market stability.

Since Coca-Cola's merger and acquisition of Huiyuan will have an adverse impact on its competitors, it is prohibited by law.

The move from afar is more serious than Coca-Cola, and the Far East Retail Industry Association should not exist at all.

The three major retail giants have sued collectively from afar, and foreign-funded retail has also started to make waves.

The existence of the distant place has broken the market balance, especially against foreign-funded enterprises, and the distant place has serious hostility.

Since China is ready to integrate into the world, this time Coca-Cola is prohibited from acquiring local companies. As a world power, it should not be treated unfairly.

In 2008, when the remote merger and acquisition of Carrefour, the Ministry of Commerce took the initiative to help the two sides contribute to this gap and comparison. How can foreign investors feel confident in entering China Investment?

Not only the retail group, in June 2008, Facebook launched a simplified Chinese version, but in China has not been able to obtain a formal bill.

And because of some political speech issues, Facebook's implementation in China has been severely hindered, and it has been unable to open the market.

On the other hand, Weibo in the distance has successfully passed the bill in the United States, Europe, and around the world, and the local government has not exerted much resistance.

The presence of a distant place has already had a serious impact on the commercial market.

As soon as the Coca-Cola case came out, some large groups at home and abroad went into battle shirtlessly, wanting to take this opportunity to cause serious damage to the distance!

At the very least, retail alliances should not be established, nor are they allowed.

Once the retail alliance has integrated resources and formed combat effectiveness, its annual revenue exceeds 500 billion yuan, surpassing the total revenue of the other nine in the top ten.

Not long after several group chiefs went to Beijing in person, the Ministry of Commerce announced that they would accept the remote monopoly case.

The news shocked the business community!

...

Pingchuan Airport.

Li Dong got the news when he got off the plane, and his face looked gloomy.

With his subordinates, Li Dong quickly walked out.

Outside the airport, there are many media reporters.

When Li Dong came out, the media flooded up.

A reporter shouted: "Mr. Li, now major domestic and foreign retail groups, including Internet groups, are all suing distant places for disrupting the balance of the commercial market. The Ministry of Commerce has announced that it accepts the case of distant monopoly. What do you think?

Li Dong stopped and solemnly said: "Nonsense!

In terms of commercial competition, it is impossible to surpass the distance, and hope to use evil doors to distort the pace of the distance, this is the performance of the incompetent!

Faraway has never thought about monopoly, nor can it do this!

I declare a few points. First, the distant place is not a controlling shareholder, but only holds some equity in some companies and does not participate in the actual management of the company.

According to their statement, some investment companies and investment banks are involved in monopoly, and the monopoly is not an industry!

Second, in 2008, the total retail sales of China's social consumer goods reached 15 trillion!

How far is it?

Even if it controls all the companies that work with us?

The total revenue is only 500 billion yuan, or add the online shopping market, accounting for 3%!

Are there companies that monopolize the market with 3% market share?

The acceptance of this case by the Ministry of Commerce does not mean that we ultimately failed. Some companies do not want to find the root cause and blame the failure on their competitors. It is extremely incompetent!

Thirdly, the fact that Facebook cannot be promoted in China has nothing to do with the government or far away!

Does the promotion of enterprises need the help of the government and our competitors?

Facebook is not suitable for China's national conditions, does not understand the needs of China's users, does not consider the reality, failure is inevitable.

What's more, the other party's attitude as a platform for public opinion is impartiality.

Weibo has been impartial in the United States, Europe, and around the world, adapting to local conditions, taking into account the attitude of the local government, and does not involve politics.

But what about Facebook?

In their bottom of their hearts, they despised the Huaxia enterprises, the Huaxia government, and did not care about the demands of the Chinese people.

Such enterprises cannot be promoted in China. It is their own responsibility. What do we do?

Zuckerberg has always been one of the entrepreneurs I admire very much, but this time, if the above is from his handwriting to the Ministry of Commerce, I want to say, I am very disappointed!

Weibo has also experienced many obstacles in the international market, but we all look for reasons from ourselves and never blame the government and competing companies.

To be a great company is my long-term goal, and the distance is working hard in this direction.

My opponents have disappointed me again and again.

I firmly believe that these small means can't defeat Li Dong and can't defeat the distance!

I believe the government and the Ministry of Commerce will give us a fair ruling.

A company will experience different kinds of hardships in the process of development and growth. Today, it is only a trivial part of the far-reaching hardships. "

Li Dong finished what he was going to say in one breath, and finally said loudly: "The root of an enterprise is still itself. I advise other companies to focus on the enterprise and improve it instead of trying to suppress it all day long. Competitors.

Putting pressure on the government is irresponsible.

Really want to play, I can play better than you, Li Dong, this move has no real benefits except that you feel that you are arrogant.

Waste government resources, waste social resources, and delay each other's time. Sooner or later, such enterprises will be eliminated by the times! "

...

Li Dong reprimanded major companies at Pingchuan Airport. As soon as the news came out, the world was attracted attention.

However, several companies involved have chosen silence.

Li Dong blamed him, but what he did was their own.

If Li Dong is not restricted again, all enterprises will face big troubles. As for face, now everyone is not too concerned about it.

What's more, whether it involves a monopoly, it's not that they have the final say, it's not Li Dong, or the netizens, it depends on the government's attitude.

This time the Ministry of Commerce was pushed to the cusp.

As soon as the Coca-Cola case was announced, the distant monopoly case was put on the agenda.

The front is foreign capital, and the Ministry of Commerce chose to terminate the merger.

Behind them are Huaxia private enterprises and local giant companies. If this time they cannot succeed in persuading the world, then Huaxia ’s business environment will be questioned by the whole world.

...

Capital city.

Several leaders of the Ministry of Commerce have a heavy face, and many people have a somber face.

meeting room.

Someone said angrily: "China Resources and Bailian, as state-owned enterprises, have trouble holding their hair at this time. Have you considered the national image?

For the sake of selfishness and disregarding the country, how can such an enterprise call itself a state-owned enterprise!

As for the SASAC, should n’t it be responsible?

Accountable the responsible persons of China Resources and Bailian! "

As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately answered: "This can't be said like this. In the final analysis, it's still in the distant group.

In my opinion, there is nothing wrong with the appeals of several groups.

Li Dong said at Pingchuan Airport that the total retail sales of consumer goods reached 15 trillion, which is true.

However, the scale of the department store industry only counts the top 100 enterprises, with sales not exceeding 2 trillion.

A company controlled by a distant company has a scale of more than 25%, which has reached the bottom line of monopoly. "

"Minister Chen, according to your opinion, is to terminate the establishment of the Far Retail Industry Association?

But don't forget, if you want to be like this, can you be convinced from a distance?

According to your standards, among private enterprises alone, there are more than 10 giant companies involved in monopoly, not to mention countless state-owned enterprises.

Once the cooperation between Yuanfang and other enterprises is terminated, and Yuanfang, as the first private enterprise in China, a world-renowned enterprise, if it is a little careless, it will produce unimaginable destructive power!

A large private enterprise that has already begun to take the international stage, a world-renowned enterprise, is it because of your concerns that it finally makes everyone astound? "

"Not bad!

Minister Zhong said that I agree that we cannot choose to compromise because of outside influence and pressure.

What's more, don't forget, you really want to ban this case. Have you considered the reaction of the public?

What do the Chinese people think about this?

Prohibiting the establishment of remote industry associations is simple, but once a wrong judgment is made, the credibility of the Ministry of Commerce disappears and is rejected by others.

From afar, the past few years have been an example of the rise of the ordinary class, with great social visibility and high social trust.

You think about the impact of the previous announcement of the evacuation in the Beijing area.

Now, because of pressure from foreign companies and state-owned enterprises, the government will make unfair rulings on distant places. Who will be convinced? "

The Minister Chen who refuted previously said angrily: "You, I am not aiming at a distant place, and you all know that this time we are actually facing more than just a few retail groups and a few foreign-funded enterprises.

The whole world is watching us!

When it was just announced that the Coca-Cola M & A case was rejected, Huaxia's big companies also faced monopoly charges.

At this time, a little carelessly, China's business investment environment will be questioned by the world.

Including some lawbreakers and hostile forces, they will take the opportunity to discredit us.

China is finally in line with the world, and the two harms are the lesser. The damage to a distant family is much less than that of China ’s reputation.

Big deal, we will make compensation to the distant place later.

Everyone, am I for my own self?

Think about it for yourself, what will happen if you don't punish a distant place this time?

The credibility of the Ministry of Commerce is questioned, and China ’s business environment is questioned, including the prestige we have just established with the help of the Coca-Cola case. "

"..."

Everyone argued for a while. At this time, no matter how it was decided, it was actually a problem.

It is strange to blame, just announced the rejection of the Coca-Cola merger case, broke out in the distant monopoly case.

If it is changed to usual, the Ministry of Commerce will not care about it at all.

But this time is different. Coca-Cola is a large international group or a foreign-funded company. If the other party feels unfair and other foreign investors are also questioned, the trouble will be even greater.

However, it is not the case to directly veto the far side.

In the distance, they are not unknown.

The other party is also a world-famous enterprise, with Weibo users all over the world and hundreds of thousands of employees in the mainland of China. The background is also profound.

And Li Dong, the head of the distance, is not good.

Even if the Ministry of Commerce will carry out a compensation plan later, Li Dong will not necessarily accept it.

Before seeing him choose to directly evacuate in Beijing, this guy is not the kind of person who can compromise with just a few words.

There was a lot of discussion, and in the end, the elder brother of the Ministry of Commerce slowly said: "Don't rush to make an argument about the ruling first. This matter has a great impact and it is not appropriate to make a judgment at this moment.

Strive to solve things behind the scenes, and choose the plan that is acceptable to both parties.

Minister Zhong, you will take a trip to Jiangbei to talk with Li Dong. Everyone can sit down and talk calmly.

Minister Chen, you go to the SASAC and get in touch to get both parties to come forward so that China Resources and Bailian can sit down and negotiate.

On Suning ’s side, I personally went to talk. I have worked in Sunan for many years and I know Zhang Jindong well. This time Suning should also consider the overall situation.

As for foreign investment, let the Foreign Affairs Office talk about it. In the end, I hope to reach a consensus that will satisfy everyone. "

After a few words, the minister who had reached the age of sixty years suddenly added Shen Sheng: "If consensus cannot be reached in the end!

Then follow our principles and act in accordance with the law!

If it is a monopoly, then it is terminated.

Not a monopoly, then let go!

No other considerations, no need to consider who is favored, really biased, that is also to consider the interests of Huaxia National Enterprises!

You, do n’t forget, Hua Xia, after all, is mainly Hua Xia enterprises! "

Everyone condensed, this is toned.

In the end, if the two parties do not agree, it will mainly be Huaxia enterprises, and among the Huaxia enterprises, they will be mainly state-owned enterprises headed by two, or will be mainly distant, the old man did not say.

But no matter what, in the end, the meat is rotten in the pot. Even if it is really a ruling that is beneficial to the state-owned enterprise, it will not cause the people to show too much rebellion.

However, now the state-owned enterprises are on the side with foreign investment ~ www.NovelMTL.com ~ Comrade Minister Huaxia National Enterprise, who is it really talking about?

Many people already have judgments, and I am afraid that the winners will not be the two state-owned enterprises that caused them trouble at this time.

The Ministry of Commerce probably hated the other party at this time.

As soon as Li Wei was beaten, or was he beaten by himself, who would be happy?

In this world, who really has no emotion?

Moreover, for the government, SOEs are easier to appease and ease disputes.

Of course, China Resources and Bailian also made choices after weighing the pros and cons. The reason for the choice is difficult at this time, because the time is more suitable!

Early, the Ministry of Commerce will not take care of it.

Too late, Coca-Cola has passed, it will not cause much impact.

Only at this time, it is possible to terminate a series of expansion plans in the distance.

As for the negative impact, as long as the remote monopoly case is established, it will affect only the distant place, and other companies will be happy.

In terms of public opinion, it is not always possible to fall to the far side, and the time will naturally pass.

It is precisely because of this series of follow-up reactions that the two chose to make the time period that the Ministry of Commerce hates difficult.

Although the Ministry of Commerce is their nominal superior, in fact it is not directly under the superior, the SASAC and the State Affairs / Institution are, so the Ministry of Commerce hates them, it is much easier to survive than Li Dongong.

If the enterprise is over, their future will probably be over.

Now, it's just offending some nominal superiors. Their future has little to do with the Ministry of Commerce.

Weighing the pros and cons, each family has already made a choice.

Of course, this matter may not be the final decision of the Ministry of Commerce. I am afraid that it has affected the upper levels.

Everyone didn't say anything, just look at it and finally, it would be best if the decision was given directly above.
