Smuggling is one of the oldest crimes in history, ranging from tobacco, alcohol, food, to home appliances and automobiles. As long as there is a price difference between domestic and overseas, there is an urge to bypass customs.

It can be said that smuggling crime is the most rampant era. Many national pillar industries have been severely impacted. Even on the verge of collapse, astronomical national tariffs have been ruthlessly swallowed.

Even more worrying is the twin phenomenon of smuggling and sex.

The late 1980s was a historical watershed in the qualitative change of smuggling activities. The simple self-smuggling in the early stage began to gradually evolve into a mode of collusion between officials and businessmen.

First, there was a smuggling case in Dandong and Rushan. The local power was fighting with smugglers for local interests. Later, there was a huge case in Zhanjiang, which proved the tragic law that there must be a big ** behind the big smuggling.

A kind of systemic **** from top to bottom, where power bribery and power rent-seeking are interdependent. Through smuggling as a criminal carrier, both achieve the maximization of illegal benefits and climbed to an unprecedented peak of crime.

It was supposed to shoulder the heavy responsibility of defending the country. The customs fortress became the hardest-hit area of ​​the Communist Party of China. Several important customs officials were captured by smugglers with silver bullets and fell on the cemetery of the authorities.

Previously, some people had condemned smuggling as reform and opening up. These arguments have just forgotten that it is the dual price system at home and abroad formed by the closure of the country, which has stimulated the primitive trafficking of smuggling. The misuse of preferential policies by some local governments is, to some extent, the price that must be paid for reform, rather than the fault of opening up itself. China's increasing integration into the world economy and the increasing reduction of commodity tariffs will only increasingly reduce the huge profit space and original driving force of smugglers.

Thinking of this, Fan Wubing said to Mr. Zhu, “In short, we still have to reform, we still have to open up. Only by thoroughly integrating into the international family can we eliminate smuggling. Of course, this is not a short time. Problems that can be solved."

In fact, Fan Wuyao immediately thought of Xiamen Yuanhua, but he hesitated and did not mention it to Boss Zhu.

He didn't know many things in China, so he didn't know that Xiamen Yuanhua had done such a big thing. The high-level officials knew if there was really an inside story, they could pick it out by themselves. It's too unwise. Once some things are involved in the upper-level struggle, it is better for you to participate less, so as not to burn yourself. After all, I don't have the strength to interfere with this kind of thing.

For these things, it's better to let the flow go, and you can't always interfere too much in the course of certain historical events.

The two chatted casually, and Ye Ying took the initiative to come over. She is more familiar with Boss Zhu, because she used to be a consular counselor of the US Embassy in China, and can be regarded as an important diplomat. Many of them were dug into Kodak this time, in fact, they wanted to take advantage of her extensive network in Chinese political circles to clear Kodak's proposal.

Ye Ying gave Boss Zhu a glass, and then said to Fan Wuyao, "Can you say a few words to President Fan?"

Fan Wubing glanced at Boss Zhu, nodded and said, "Of course we can, in fact, there are still a lot of topics we will discuss in the future."

The two walked aside, found a place to sit down, touched a glass of wine, and then Ye Ying asked, "Why does President Fan have such a soft spot for digital camera technology? I don't believe you are just for your girlfriend. That’s why."

Fan Wuyao laughed haha, he intuitively disagrees with this old woman. Although Ye Ying is also a Chinese with yellow skin and black eyes, in Fan Wuyao's opinion, she should belong to that kind of banana person. , The skin is yellow and the flesh is white, that is, except for the skin color is the same as that of the Chinese, the whole person has been completely Westernized, no matter in terms of ideology or national identity, he cannot be regarded as Chinese.

And some people often hyped up this kind of things before, such as where a Chinese became the governor of the United States, and where a Chinese became the minister of a certain country. In fact, Fan Wubing felt that these things were meaningless in themselves. After all, since people can be recognized by other governments and voters, they are serving the people of that country wholeheartedly. For people, China is not a country that will work for or identify with.

Or, in a sense, when there are conflicts between the two countries, what these people want to target must be China. Just like Ye Ying now, the Chinese market needs to be looted arbitrarily for her. It's not that she will really use Kodak's resources to serve the Chinese public. This is a joke.

Of course, there are some people who are willing to believe this statement and are willing to guide the media to mislead the people. What they want to express is nothing more than a meaning. We Chinese are also capable, but when we come back to think about it, what does this ability of others come from? What about the soil?

Fan Wubing shook the red wine in the glass, and then said, "This kind of wine, in fact, I don't like it very much. The wine I drink is usually Tianshan original wine. It’s different from ordinary people’s pursuits, so you don’t have to guess my thoughts. It’s meaningless."

Ye Ying’s expression was suddenly very complicated. When facing Clinton, she always felt that she was more superior, but in front of the young man Fan Wubing, it seemed that the president of the United States was like a shit. This feeling is really weird.

However, Fan Wubing explained his thoughts, “Although many companies are engaged in digital camera technology, the threshold is relatively low, but paying attention to it appropriately is important for the global business expansion of our Fan Investment Group. The prompting role of this."

The history of the development of digital camera technology is very fast. Last year, the hot spot and mainstream products of popular digital cameras were digital cameras with a pixel count of about 350,000 and a maximum resolution of 640x480 pixels, while megapixel digital cameras were just beginning to emerge. Only Fujifilm, Olympus, Kodak and Konica each launched a new product.

The focus of the popular digital camera exhibition, in addition to improving the resolution, the focus is on special functions, that is, some functions that traditional film cameras do not have and cannot do, showing the superiority of digital cameras, such as the installation of LCD monitors on the fuselage. The viewfinder and the function that can check the shooting effect on the spot after shooting, make the lens a function that can rotate a certain degree, combine the convenient function of the LCD screen, and install the function of quickly transmitting image data to a computer.

And this year, low-priced megapixel digital cameras have become a new hot spot and mainstream products, among which new products with megapixels or more account for about 80% of all new models.

This year's digital cameras have put a lot of effort into functions. Basically, they all use optical zoom lenses, up to 14 times. Some cameras also have digital zoom functions. Most digital cameras have the function of connecting an external flash, and some models have the function of a built-in flash and an external synchronized flash.

Most digital cameras are equipped with TTL optical viewfinder or SLR viewfinder function. SLR digital cameras have added interchangeable lens function. In addition, they generally use the usB interface to quickly download image data to the computer.

In addition, a new function has appeared, that is, without a personal computer connection, Ye can directly or through a ** card and other recording media, use a dedicated printer to print digital photos.

Therefore, the exhibition of digital camera technology has also led to the exhibition of some computer peripheral products. So when Fan Wubing mentioned that he had a broad mind about tracking digital camera technology, Ye Ying felt that he could agree with it.

"Of course, I also think that Kodak's monopoly on the Chinese film industry market will bring greater benefits, so participation is also a good choice. At least during the cooperation period, you should give me more discounts on the printing equipment? Fan Wubing said to Ye Ying with a grin.

"We have a complete discount system. As long as the quantity meets the requirements, the price can be negotiated, but if the quantity is too small, even if the company's internal shareholders want a larger discount, there is nothing they can do." Ye Ying replied.

"My shots are generally very generous." Fan Wuyao also said.

Ye Ying had never doubted this. She knew very well how strong the Fan Investment Group was. Since Fan Wuyi expressed that she would participate in the Kodak joint venture, she asked the United States to review the Fan Investment Group’s situation. Sufficient understanding, coupled with the comprehensive analysis of the intelligence department on China's 6th side ~lightnovelpub.net~, came to a conclusion that Fan Wuyi's influence is too great to be provoked.

The recent series of actions taken by Fan Wuyao in Indonesia have also made Americans more worried. The Habibie government is already under Fan Wuyao's control at this time. Not only has it sold a lot of mineral resources, but it has also sold advantageous areas. As a base for Fan Wuyi to use, this has made the US military, which has gradually faded out of Indonesia, felt uneasy.

However, the current situation in Indonesia is rather chaotic. The United States has not made up its mind to return to Indonesia for a while, so Fan Wuyi can only toss around there and be helpless.

Clinton’s life is not going well at this time. He is suffering from the zipper door incident made with Lewinsky. If he wants to return to Indonesia at this time, he will definitely be regarded by the public as taking the opportunity to divert public attention. Attacked, so if he can't solve his own problems for a while, he won't care about Indonesia.

Not paying attention does not mean not paying attention. In fact, the a side has already started to pay attention to the situation in Indonesia. They are shocked to find that the forces that Fan Wuyi has deployed in Indonesia are already overwhelming and difficult to deal with.

Ye Ying was talking to Fan Wuyao while paying attention to this powerful young man, feeling very deeply in her heart.
