The demonstrators at the Pentagon quickly dispersed, and the Ministry of Defense was their sponsor. Caspar-Weinberg has to give face to everyone, especially at this juncture.

No matter what, no one wants to go to the parade, it's all forced by life. At this point, the money has been received, and the employer has agreed to leave them, so why not do it!

General Motors and Ford, though reluctantly. But I also know that demonstrations cannot bring much trouble to the Black Cloud Group, so it is better to wait for the next step of the Ministry of Defense.

More than 20 companies participated in the bidding, all of them from the United States. However, the first requirement of the Ministry of Defense caught many companies by surprise, and even a little angry, because nothing like this had ever happened before.

Ian Wright said to the representatives of more than 20 auto companies: "All bidding companies must be headquartered in the United States. The parent company cannot be registered in the Cayman Islands, Virgin Islands, Bermuda and other tax haven islands."

"Not only that, other branches cannot be registered at the above locations. That means car companies must not have any connection with the tax haven island, otherwise they will not be able to participate in this bidding."

This is a blockbuster, and many car companies can't beat it. At the same time, he held Bao Zixuan in his heart. If it wasn't for this kid talking nonsense at the airport, how could the Ministry of National Defense have introduced such a policy.

Many large companies in the United States will register one or several companies in the Virgin Islands and other places for the purpose of reasonable tax avoidance. If the Ministry of National Defense did this, wouldn't it cut people's money!

In fact, this is not the most terrible, many companies can not deal with the government or the military. This hole can't be opened, and all the bidding will be done like this in the future, so how can people live.

Hearing this news, GM's Mac Donald was very troubled. GM has two branches registered in the Cayman Islands, but the parent company does not dare to transfer it out. After all, when GM was established, these islands were still in a semi-primitive society.

Looking at the posture, if the two companies are not written off, it will be difficult to get orders from the Ministry of Defense. He still clearly remembered the phone call between General Ian Wright and him last night, and he had made things clear.

Involving the president this time, the Department of Defense is just acting on orders. It should be time to make a statement, otherwise the military vehicle order may really make wedding dresses for others.

Before Mac Donald could speak, a representative of a car company said: "General Ian Wright, how come there are no regulations in this regard before, what should we do at this time? It was registered in the Cayman Islands more than ten years ago. The company also provided high-quality vehicles for the military during the Vietnam War.

"National policies cannot be changed overnight, otherwise, how to convince the public."

Seeing that someone has made their early bird, everyone is waiting for news. Let's see how the Ministry of Defense reacts, whether it is loud thunder and little rain, just trying to scare timid companies.

Ian Wright said with a smile: "Mr. Wharton, you can leave. That means your company is out. I think what I said is clear enough."

It is very rude to let people leave directly. Ian Wright has a good temper. How can he be so unreasonable, it is really incomprehensible.

Seeing Wharton being expelled, he wanted to argue a few words, but Ian Wright said bluntly: "For military purchase orders, products must not only have the best performance, but also companies must make a significant contribution to the country. "

"A company that thinks about tax evasion and evasion every day can do a good job of its products, at least I have doubts. Compared with other countries in the world, the taxes and fees in the United States are not high. That kind of thinking is unacceptable.

"Although we are soldiers, we don't want to worry about economic matters. But defense expenditures need to be provided by taxes. You don't even pay taxes, so you're too embarrassed to come and participate in the bidding fair."

"At least in the Department of Defense, it will be difficult to pass, even if it is reported to His Excellency the President. The United States and the Soviet Union need to compete on various fronts, and defense spending needs a lot of money. You are all elites of the United States, don't rely on the country. hind legs."

Hearing Ian Wright's words so bluntly, everyone present felt that this time was for real. Unexpectedly, it was not the tax department that made the first move, but the military procurement.

In fact, this is very normal, and it is impossible to kill all companies with one stick. If all companies in the United States are targeted at once, one bad move will have serious consequences. Being able to go to the Virgin Islands and other places to register a business is not a simple master. Even as the President of the United States, he would not dare to offend people to death at one time.

Every presidential election requires huge financial backing. Reagan still wanted to do something, and he would definitely seek re-election. For these super-rich, not much can be done yet.

Fortunately, Reagan is an actor, and Hollywood is very supportive. Otherwise, even military procurement may not dare to be so aggressive, after all, this represents a political signal.

A signal that the White House wants to get some businesses to change, at least on taxes.

MacDonald stood up and said, "Gentlemen, General Ian Wright is right. There are too many businesses in the United States registered in the Virgin Islands, etc.; they are all smart people, and I don't need to say more to know why. ."

"But our main market is in the United States, and everyone is American. It's impossible not to contribute to the country at all, and let the country pay for you unconditionally."

General Motors also had a registered company in the Cayman Islands before, which is a shame for the company and a shame for all GM employees. We have to remember this day because GM will write off two offshore companies.

"General Motors will never compromise the nation's tax revenue for a small profit."

Mike - Donald's position, let other business representatives know. This kid must have gotten the news in advance, otherwise it would be impossible to say so grandly. It seems that General Motors is bound to win the order for military vehicles, otherwise Mac Donald would never dare to make such a statement. The board of directors must not let him go without getting an order.

Henry Ford II said with a smile: "Ford has always been committed to the development of the United States, and has not yet registered a company in the Cayman Islands or other places."

"So there is no problem that General Ian Wright said, the state protects the business, and it is normal for us to pay taxes to the state. Ford has never thought about tax avoidance since the day it was founded."

Ford considers itself an American auto aristocrat, and has never registered any business on the tax haven island. That's why Ford II dared to make such a statement, and his words were both hated and admired by everyone present.

The hatred is that this old guy is a full man and doesn't know that a hungry man is hungry. Ford has a long history and a rich family background; to put it bluntly, he is rich. Other companies are not so profitable, and who doesn't want to save tax. Now Henry Ford II actually said that, isn't this embarrassing to everyone!

Admiration is a sign that Ford is not a bad American car, and it can really take the lead. Reasonable tax avoidance is not necessary. Ford is indeed a responsible company.

Ian Wright didn't expect the Ford family to be so powerful. It seems that they really underestimated them before. So he said: "Ford Motors is proud of the American car industry, and Ford Motors directly entered the second round of bidding."

"As for other companies, if they have no relationship or involvement with the tax avoidance island, they can submit information to the Ministry of National Defense and enter the second round of bidding."

"But first I have to make it clear to all of you~www.mtlnovel.com~ If there is any implication, just say no. That is to ignore the US side, not only will it directly cancel the bidding qualification. At the same time, it will be listed by the Ministry of Defense. The blacklist will not be able to participate in the bidding business of defense orders in the future."

"If there are still companies registered in the Cayman Islands and other places, I hope to process them within three days. The Ministry of Defense will launch a second round of bidding three days later, and don't even have the qualifications to enter the competition."

Although three days is a short time, it can be used for these large enterprises. It is absolutely enough to cancel the company in the Cayman Islands, as long as the management fee is made up, as for these other tax avoidance islands, they will not care at all.

Everyone on the scene knew that if you wanted to take on the Ministry of Defense order, you must do what General Ian Wright said. Otherwise, you can say goodbye to the Ministry of Defense in the future, because it is impossible for them to give you a chance.

All are faced with a choice as to whether it is cost-effective to deregister a company in the Cayman Islands. If the Ministry of Defense orders are not obtained, the future will be very passive. Fortunately, no one is so stupid that they really want to deceive the military. After all, they cannot afford this crime.

And with the CIA behind the military, few can deceive the world's most famous intelligence organization.
