Chapter 8 Chapter 2 Bing refers to Chaoshan

While the leaders of the preparatory group were formulating the anti-fraud plan, a news suddenly spread on the Internet, saying that two cadres from the relevant departments who were handling the case in Chaoshan were burned to death in the fire at the Shantou Guest House where they were staying. Although this incident is not necessarily related to the "807" working group going south, it has affected the nervousness of the members of the working group and made them more cautious and careful in formulating plans. If a worker wants to do a good job, he must first sharpen his tools.At a meeting of the preparatory team, Han Qiu summed up his past inspection experience in Chaoshan and said: "In the past, our inspections were all manual, and for small-scale inspections, there is no problem. However, this is a large-scale inspection organized by the State Council. If the old-fashioned manual inspection method is used again, it may be difficult to adapt to the current complicated situation in Chaoshan. In addition to the inspection program, it is also important to have modern equipment.”

Seeing that Lu Hua was smiling, Han Qiu said more directly: "Director Lu, this time we are going to inspect differently. The leader must promise us a few conditions." Lu Hua asked: "What condition? You mention it." Therefore, Han Qiu boldly put forward the conditions: "First, there must be a computer, at least every group must be equipped. Second, there must be communication equipment, and some mobile phones must be equipped, otherwise it will be impossible to command. Third, the fax machine must be guaranteed Fourth, there must be a photocopier. In addition, based on past inspection experience in Chaoshan, language is also a major obstacle. Because we can't understand the local people's speech, sometimes they collude with each other to conduct inspections, and we are anxious like deaf people. Therefore, it is best to have a translator for each working group..."

Lu Hua nodded while listening.After Han Qiu finished speaking, Lu Hua said cheerfully, "Okay, I promise you everything you say!" What Han Qiu mentioned was also what Ma Sen wanted to mention.Ma Sen looked around and said to everyone: "Don't let Han Qiu mention it alone, everyone asks for anything, and it will be too late to talk about it after work." The members of the preparatory team were in high spirits, and based on their own inspection experience, they put forward some ideas.Someone suggested that in order to ensure the safety of the staff, the working group should be guarded by armed police.Regarding the issue of the deployment of armed police, the people who raised it thought it was a fantasy, so they just talked about it casually.Unexpectedly, after collecting everyone's opinions, the leaders of the State Administration of Taxation went directly to Comrade Wu Yi.

Comrade Wu Yi made arrangements for the requirements put forward by the working group. It was beyond everyone's expectations.The members of the preparatory team were elated. However, Lu Hua was more serious and solemn than before. He said to everyone: "The more the leader promises, the more pressure we will have; Hand over to the leaders of the State Council!" Joy turned into heavy thinking.That's right, if you can't pry off the tax fraud cover of the two cities of Chaopu, you won't be able to report to the State Council, the State Administration of Taxation, or even yourself!

As a result, the working group became more serious and thoughtful when formulating plans.Everyone knows in their hearts that this is not an ordinary tax inspection, but a political task, and there is no room for sloppy and slack! Lu Hua and Ma Sen stared at the preparatory team every day to formulate a plan.They thought about all kinds of situations that they might encounter after going to Chaoshan, and then proposed it for everyone to discuss and study and formulate a more detailed work plan. On July 28, Premier Zhu Rongji listened to the report of Jin Renqing, the then director of the State Administration of Taxation, on cracking down on fraudulent export tax rebates. He pointed out again that export tax rebates have promoted the development of foreign trade and achieved great results. It is necessary to crack down on tax fraud and criminal activities like cracking down on smuggling, and the crackdown on key areas must be strengthened.

A few days later, Director Jin Renqing, together with Lu Hua and Ma Sen, reported the deception plan to Comrade Wu Yi.When the three of them walked out of Comrade Wu Yi's office and just went down the stairs, Jin Renqing approached Ma Sen and asked suddenly, "Ma Sen, do you think we can find out the problem this time in Chaoshan?" Mason thought for a while, and felt that this question was difficult to answer.In the past, so many working groups from the State Administration of Taxation and provincial bureaus led teams to Chaoshan for inspection, only found some superficial problems, and came back with doubts. Will he be able to find out this time?Although Ma Sen has never been to Chaoshan, he still said seriously: "I can't guarantee whether the problem can be found out... If we can't win this battle, we can only blame our incompetence, and I will resign. It's too long!"

This was the first time that Jin Renqing asked Ma Sen if he could find out the problem when he went to Chaoshan.Not long after, on the night before the Beidaihe meeting on August 7, Jin Renqing asked Ma Sen if he could find out the problem when he went to Chaoshan.After the prime minister's office meeting, Jin Renqing and Ma Sen had dinner together. Just as he picked up his chopsticks, Jin Renqing asked again: "Ma Sen, do you think we can find out the problem? This time the prime minister's office meeting will have to be decided." ..." Ma Sen said: "According to our current strength, there should be no problem in dealing with Chaoshan...Of course, there will be various difficulties in the operation, and these difficulties need us to overcome."

From this we can see that although this is a national action, people are always worried about whether this battle can be won. A few days later, Comrade Wu Yi listened to the report of the State Administration of Taxation and issued a series of instructions on the special struggle. On August 15, the State Council's Leading Group for Cracking down on Fraudulently Obtaining Export Tax Rebates was formally established.Wu Yi, who was an alternate member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and State Councilor at the time, served as the team leader. Jin Renqing, then director of the State Administration of Taxation, and Qian Guanlin, director of the General Administration of Customs, served as deputy team leaders.State Administration of Taxation, Ministry of Public Security, Ministry of Supervision, Ministry of Finance, Ministry of Communications, General Administration of Customs, Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation, State Economic and Trade Commission, People's Bank of China, State Administration of Foreign Exchange, State Administration for Industry and Commerce and other relevant leaders are members of the leading group .

The leading group has an office under it. Lu Hua, a member of the leading group of the State Council's crackdown on fraudulent export tax rebates and deputy director of the State Administration of Taxation, serves as the director. The office is located in the State Administration of Taxation. At the same time, the State Council set up a working group to combat fraudulent export tax rebates, led by Lu Hua, Ma Sen, director of the Import and Export Tax Management Department of the State Administration of Taxation, Chen Jian, secretary-general of the Guangdong Provincial Government, Chen Luming, director of the Guangdong Provincial State Taxation Bureau, and deputy director of the Guangdong Provincial Public Security Department. Zheng Shaonan served as the deputy team leader.

The working group is composed of more than 300 cadres drawn from the national taxation, public security system and other departments across the country. On August 17, Lu Hua arrived in Guangzhou early and exchanged views with leaders of relevant departments in Guangdong Province. A battle against defrauding export tax rebates in the Chaoshan area is about to start...
