Shenhao started after the college entrance examination

Faced with Francis's answer, An Liang felt a little relieved. It seemed that the current situation was not the worst. BlackRock Capital Group should not be colluding with the Bald Eagle Federation Court.

"Since you BlackRock cannot guarantee the safety of our cooperation, Mr. Francis, what do you think of our cooperation..." An Liang directly pressured and revealed his intention of not cooperating.

"This..." Francis was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to persuade An Liang.

Seeing that Francis seemed to be stuck in a dead end, An Liang took the initiative to remind him, "Maybe we can find a way to have the best of both worlds.".

"How to have the best of both worlds?" Francis asked back.

Anyway, Francis could not think of a way to have the best of both worlds.

"What we Dream Future Energy Group is worried about is nothing more than the Bald Eagle Federation Court causing trouble for us, so that our investment in Texas will go down the drain." An Liang explained the core issue.

"But what if our Dream Future Energy Group has not invested in Texas?" An Liang asked.

"No investment in Texas..." Francis was a little confused for a moment.

If Dream Future Energy Group has not invested in Texas, doesn't that mean that the two sides have no cooperation?

"Mr. An, I don't quite understand what you mean." Francis asked bluntly.

An Liang sighed secretly. It seems that Francis' CPU has been burned out?

"It's actually very simple. Let's change the way of cooperation. Our Dream Future Energy Group does not want equity. You BlackRock can completely hold 100% of the fourth-generation nuclear power plant in Texas." An Liang explained.

"Really?" Francis was even more confused!

Does An Liang want to completely sell the ownership of the fourth-generation nuclear power plant?

According to Xia Guo, isn't that giving away the golden chicken that lays eggs?

"Of course it's true." An Liang answered affirmatively.

"But you need to pay the nuclear power plant's income for the next 40 years in one lump sum, which is equivalent to buying out our income for the next 40 years." An Liang explained.

"This..." Francis hesitated.

"In fact, you have made a lot of money!" An Liang began to paint a picture.

"If we cooperate around the Texas power market, referring to the electricity demand of the Texas power market, we plan to build a fourth-generation nuclear power plant cluster with a power of 50 million kilowatt-hours." An Liang described the situation of cooperation.

"The fourth-generation nuclear power plant cluster with a power of 50 million kilowatts has a theoretical annual power generation of 438 billion kilowatt-hours. According to the lowest electricity price of the Texas power system of $0.15, it has a turnover of $65.7 billion a year." An Liang calculated quickly.

"If we hold 49% of the shares, plus various operating costs and tax costs, the total income will be at least more than 20 billion US dollars, right?" An Liang asked casually.

Francis answered sincerely, "It should beIt will be more. ”

“Texas is one of the six states in our Bald Eagle that is exempt from corporate income tax. Although Texas will levy business tax, the business tax is very low. "Francis added.

Although both 'corporate income tax' and 'business tax' are taxes, there are certain differences.

The biggest difference is that 'corporate income tax' is levied on the net profit of the enterprise. In simple terms, if the enterprise does not make money, it does not need to pay taxes.

'Business tax' is levied directly on the turnover. Even if the enterprise is losing money, it still has to pay taxes based on the turnover.

As for whether 'corporate income tax' is more cost-effective or 'business tax' is more cost-effective, it depends on the profit margin of the enterprise.

Companies with very high profit margins such as the fourth-generation nuclear power plant are of course willing to collect business tax.

Texas' business tax is very low, with a minimum of only 0.375%.

If the turnover in Texas is less than 1.18 million US dollars, there is no need to pay business tax; if it exceeds 1.18 million US dollars and is less than 10 million US dollars, it needs to pay 0 .375-0.75% tax.

For a company like the fourth-generation nuclear power plant with tens of billions of dollars in sales, it only needs to pay 1% of its turnover in business tax at most.

As for the corporate income tax stipulated by the Bald Eagle Federation, it is a bit more.

The Bald Eagle Federation has stipulated a 21% corporate income tax for all state capitals.

However, even so, after comprehensive calculation, the net profit is easily more than 25 billion US dollars each year, so Francis told An Liang that the profit will be even higher.

As for why Francis said that the actual profit is more, it is because this information cannot be concealed at all. Even if An Liang does not know it now, after the two sides really want to cooperate, they will definitely investigate in detail.

(Money)

So it is useless to conceal it, it is better to just say it directly to win some favor.

"¨々 Mr. An, is the design service life of your fourth-generation nuclear power plant 40 years? "Francis asked.

An Liang answered affirmatively, "The actual design life is higher, but for the sake of safety, we prefer to conservatively estimate it as 40 years of safe use design life."

In fact, the safe design life of the fourth-generation nuclear power plant is an adjustable scheme, which can be as low as 40 years. If more construction costs are invested and the safety configuration is raised, the safe design life can even be increased to 100 years.

But for the fourth-generation nuclear power plant in Bald Eagle, of course it only needs to be used for a minimum of 40 years, right?.
