For some time, many readers and netizens have reflected the difficulty of reducing production and operation costs through the "leadership message board" of people's network, of which rent is a topic of concern. Relevant local departments and units have actively replied to handle it and guided the state-owned housing to implement phased reduction and exemption for the lease of market entities in relevant industries. Some of these problems have been properly handled, which has solved the urgent needs of many enterprise heads: Guangdong Heshan Xinghe Company has implemented the rent reduction required by the policy to the end tenants through consultation with the lessee and end tenants; Jida company in Chizhou City, Anhui Province reduced the rent of relevant tenants for 3 months by extension; Yunnan Shilin Yi Autonomous County exempted the relevant lessee from 3 months' rent Good policies provide timely help The government reduced the rent for merchants, but the landlord refused to pay less, which made Ms. Jiang, an Internet cafe operator in Fuyang City, Anhui Province, very worried. "Holiday business is the best, but last summer vacation and this year's' May Day 'holiday were suspended due to the epidemic." Ms. Jiang said that there was no income, but the monthly expenditure did not decrease. The staff salary was more than 10000 yuan, the rent and property expenses were 7000 yuan, the water and electricity expenses were more than 10000 yuan, and the school expenses of three children. After almost seven years of business, she didn't want to give up. At this time, a short video news attracted Ms. Jiang's attention - the government will reduce the rent for merchants. Ms. Jiang then went online to check the relevant policies. The house she rents now belongs to Yingquan District Urban Construction Investment Co., Ltd. within the scope of rent reduction, the rent for February to April can be reduced. Ms. Jiang contacted the landlord, but was shut down. "She ignored me when I called or sent messages." After seeing Ms. Jiang's message on the "leadership message board" of people's network, relevant departments in Fuyang conducted an investigation. It turned out that the house rented by Ms. Jiang was not directly rented from the urban investment company, but was sublet and increased by the second-hand landlord. Therefore, although the rent reduction policy was formulated, the subsidy was not enjoyed by the actual tenants. In order to make the policy effectively help merchants, the urban investment company has arranged the relevant person in charge to negotiate with the landlord. Finally, the landlord agreed to implement the part of the government relief. "Although only a part is reduced, there are also twenty or thirty thousand yuan." Ms. Jiang said, "this is a timely help, which can let us breathe a sigh of relief. As long as we can sustain it, business will always be better." Now the Internet cafe business is also gradually recovering. Ms. Jiang said, "I'm going to open a restaurant downstairs. After working hard for several years, I can always earn money back." It is understood that this rent reduction is the second time that Fuyang City has reduced the rent for local enterprises renting the operating houses of municipal and municipal state-owned enterprises. In 2020, the local government reduced the rent of 1772 eligible small, medium-sized and micro enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households by 57.516 million yuan. This year, the relevant rent reduction policies are still being actively promoted. Rent reduction benefits small and micro enterprises There are many business problems after many years of operation, and the survival of start-ups is not easy. At the end of February, Ms. Chen's office building was closed down again. After studying abroad, she returned to Shenzhen to start a business. Unfortunately, she caught up with the rebound of the epidemic, and the entrepreneurial road was not easy. At the end of 2021, Ms. Chen and her partners rented a studio in a shared office space to engage in the R & D and sales of personal care products. With a brand-new studio, a complete team, and a well-established plan, Ms. Chen, who was preparing for a big fight, was cooled by the oncoming epidemic. "Business can't run, and the office building has been suspended twice." Ms. Chen said. In addition, financing is blocked, the supply chain is shut down, commercial activities cannot be carried out, and products cannot be listed... Difficulties come one after another. Faced with financial problems, team members took the initiative to reduce their salaries. "Basically, everyone only received the money to ensure life and helped the company control costs everywhere." Ms. Chen said that the rent of more than 10000 yuan per month was still a great burden. "At that time, I was very anxious. I paid close attention to almost all local government official account and looked every day to see if there were any subsidy policies that could support us." Ms. Chen said. Knowing that the rent of the state-owned house rented by a friend was reduced for three months with the help of the policy, Ms. Chen asked whether she could reduce some of the rent. At that time, Ms. Chen's office building was a state-owned enterprise and was not within the scope of subsidies. To solve the problem of capital turnover, a partner sold his car. "In fact, the company is not so short of money, but this move has indeed eased the financial pressure and strengthened everyone's determination to make achievements." Ms. Chen said. In May, Ms. Chen, who browsed the news as usual, saw that the local media forwarded a notice from the state owned assets supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council: accelerating the implementation of rent reduction for small and micro enterprises in the service industry renting houses from central enterprises. "Now, the relevant departments and rental enterprises are actively communicating with us. Some enterprises in the office space have successively enjoyed the rent reduction policy, and we look forward to the implementation of the good policy as soon as possible. With such concern, we have the confidence to do things." Ms. Chen said that now the company's team is growing and has changed to a larger place in the shared office space. It is understood that as of May 20, the rent reduction of Shenzhen Municipal State-owned Enterprise properties has benefited more than 20000 small and micro enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households, and the rent reduction has exceeded 2.6 billion yuan. By the end of May, state-owned enterprises in Nanshan District of Shenzhen had reduced the rent of 28.87 million yuan for eligible small and micro enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households that rent the properties of the district government and the district owned state-owned enterprise business premises. Nanshan District is a state-owned enterprise. It is estimated that the rent reduction will be about 65million yuan, which will benefit more than 530 eligible enterprises. Innovative methods and meticulous implementation of policies With the implementation of rent reduction and exemption policies in many places, many enterprises with operating difficulties during the epidemic gradually recovered their vitality. Many places are also actively seeking solutions to the problems of insufficient policy coverage, second-hand landlord "card subsidies" and low awareness of relevant measures. As the leasing of private houses and private houses belongs to market behavior, merchants are affected by the epidemic and cannot be directly taken care of by policies. Many merchants have suffered for this. In response to this problem, Xinjiang Urumqi market supervision and Administration Bureau, on the one hand, held symposiums, enterprise visits and other ways to guide private enterprises to reduce rents for merchants according to their capacity; On the other hand, make positive publicity for private enterprises that implement rent reduction and exemption, and encourage private enterprises to tide over difficulties with tenants. The problem of second-hand landlord sublease has brought some trouble to the implementation of the policy. Relevant departments in Tianjin have formulated special regulations for this purpose: for those who rent state-owned houses indirectly, the preferential amount to the final lessee shall not be less than the preferential amount transferred by the state-owned lessor. In addition, there are also cases where second-hand landlords are not small and micro enterprises and cannot enjoy subsidies. In this regard, zhangbaoyi, director of the Institute of Sociology of the Tianjin Academy of Social Sciences, suggested that for composite economies, it is recommended to reduce rents appropriately, and then let them transmit subsidies to downstream small and micro enterprises. From counting merchants to assisting in filling in, Zhejiang Hangzhou Xinzhou construction and Development Co., Ltd. implemented subsidies for qualified small and micro enterprises. Around the relevant 108 merchants, Party members and relevant staff of the company's asset operation Department came to publicize and explain the policy one by one, and assisted the merchants in filling in relevant audit materials. In Hangzhou West Lake District, 10 local service teams were set up to create a one-stop service experience in combination with the building party masses Service Center. As of June 9, rent reduction of 19.89 million yuan in the whole district benefited 300 enterprises. Recently, the Ministry of housing and urban rural development, the national development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Finance and other ministries and commissions jointly issued the notice on promoting the phased reduction and exemption of housing rents of market entities, requiring all localities to coordinate all kinds of funds in combination with their own reality, come up with practical and effective measures to promote the reduction and exemption of housing rents of market entities, and ensure the implementation and effectiveness of various policies and measures.
