Chapter 450

Speaking of Taiwanese LCD panels, one disgusting thing has to be mentioned.

In 2008, the subprime mortgage crisis broke out.

Affected by the economic crisis, home appliance companies in Japan and South Korea canceled their previous orders for LCD panels. As one of the world's largest producers of LCD panels at that time, Taiwan's LCD panel manufacturers suddenly fell into trouble, and a large number of companies were on the verge of bankruptcy.

At that time, only mainland China continued to grow in demand for LCD panels.

After the mainland authorities learned about the situation, they immediately organized home appliance companies to go to Taiwan to purchase panels.

A few months later, nine mainland companies purchased more than 1200 million LCD panels in Taiwan, worth more than US$40 billion, pulling Taiwan's LCD panel industry out of the mud.

This was originally a good thing for mutual benefit. Taiwan has panels and the mainland has markets.

But less than a month later, Taiwan's LCD panel companies collectively defaulted.

It turned out that the Korean home appliance company that canceled the order before ran back to Taiwan to buy panels. The Taiwanese panel manufacturer that had signed an agreement with the mainland company not only sold the inventory panels to the Korean home appliance company, but also sold most of its future production capacity to Taiwan. Korea.

As for the contract signed with the mainland, they refused to perform, anyway, these people were not invited by them.

The mainland home appliance companies that have already arranged the production plan and signed the contract with the seller are suddenly dumbfounded, and can only watch the price of the panel go up slowly.

This incident has become an eternal pain for Chinese home appliance companies, and it has fully exposed the stupidity, short-sightedness, and selfishness of Taiwan's panel companies.

But historically, this is a good thing.

Prior to this, there were quite a few voices in the country who shouted that as long as Taiwan does industries, we should not do them, not to compete with Taiwan, but to give benefits to Taiwan, and take the initiative to establish vertical industries with Taiwan...

After the LCD panel incident, no one shouted about establishing a vertical industry with Taiwan.

A few years later, the mainland began to vigorously develop the LCD panel industry. The Taiwanese panel bosses panicked and went to the mainland to lobby the mainland to give up the production of LCD panels.

But they even cheated those who originally organized the purchases for them, how could anyone speak for them again?

Later, the mainland issued a 3+2 restriction order for high-generation panel production lines, two of which were wholly owned by the mainland, and three joint venture panel factories were Samsung, LG, and Sharp, and all Taiwanese panel companies were eliminated.

Yang Dongsheng will definitely enter the LCD panel industry.

However, LCD panels are different from industries such as steel and machine tools. No one can tell which blast furnace or machine tool a screw comes from, but LCD panels are different.

In this era, our country is not yet one of the largest markets in the world. Mobile phones and computers are mainly exported after OEM assembly, so Yang Dongsheng must obtain Japanese patent authorization.

Yang Dongsheng made several phone calls and arranged for someone to go to Japan.

"Since we said that the old man had an illegitimate child, many people came out claiming to be the old man's son, but unfortunately none of them could provide any real evidence..." Yang Huai shook his head repeatedly.

"The illegitimate child is not true or false, as long as it can make his son and daughter-in-law nervous!"

Not long after Yang Huai left, Director Li of the General Office came over, reported on the work arrangements during the Chinese New Year, and finally took out an invitation card.

"This is just received!"

Yang Dongsheng took it over and glanced at it. It was still a wedding invitation, "Who wants to get married after the Chinese New Year?"

"President Cen of Cen's Iron and Steel Plant!"

"Old Cen! Doesn't he have a wife?" Yang Dongsheng was taken aback, and when he opened the invitation, it was really old Cen.

"The person who sent the invitation said he just left!"

"This is really fresh!" Yang Dongsheng raised his head, "I remember when I visited the leader in the city a few days ago, I saw him show his affection with his wife, and he left so soon, and he was going to get married again so soon... ..."

Director Li saw Yang Dongsheng's playful face, "Then are you still going?"

"Go, why don't you go? It's good to see the excitement! When is the wedding?"

"Just tomorrow!"

"Tomorrow, good!" Yang Dongsheng nodded.

"Boss Cen, this is an old house on fire!" Faced with such gossip, even Director Li, who is always serious, couldn't help but make a joke.

Coming out of the study, I saw Yang Richu talking to Yang Jialin, Yang Yu, Yang Nini, Yang Lin, and Yang Miao.

"Brother Richu, have you ever seen a star?"

"I've seen a few of them. In fact, quite a few of our teachers have acted before!"

"Have you seen the foreign star?"

"I've seen it! Two days before the holiday, an American director brought a film to our school for screening..."

Seeing their lively conversation, Yang Dongsheng followed the scent to the kitchen. Fish and croquettes were being fried in the kitchen. The radish balls were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the fried fish was burnt and delicious.

Yang Dongsheng was carrying a bowl of fish and a bowl of meatballs. He just entered the room when he heard Yang Richu say, "In order to thank the United States for helping them drive away the Spaniards, Mexico took Nevada, Utah, Colorado, New Mexico, and Arizona as A gift to America!"

Yang Dongsheng was dumbfounded while holding the sea bowl, "Who told you this?"

"It's the director from America!"

"Is there no one to refute it? Haven't you heard of the Mexican-American War?"

"The Mexican-American War?"

"The Mexican-American War! I remember this passage was mentioned in the history textbook in middle school. How did you learn history in middle school? Didn't your teacher find out that something was wrong?"

After finishing speaking, Yang Dongsheng realized that his requirements seemed to be too high. The teachers of the Film Academy were probably just like their students, all of whom were unqualified in history.

Outside the most luxurious hotel in Guazhou City, Lao Cen stood at the door, wearing a suit and a bright red tie, his face glowing red, as if he was 20 years younger.

Seeing Yang Dongsheng coming, Lao Cen greeted him from afar, "Mr. Yang, welcome, welcome!"

"Congratulations!" Yang Dongsheng took out a red envelope, "Why didn't you see the bride?"

"She's putting on makeup, and she must toast Mr. Yang later!"

The staff led Yang Dongsheng to a private room, Yang Dongsheng pushed the door in, and heard a person saying, "Old Cen just let go, whoever calls mom will give a car immediately!"

"Is someone calling?"

"Yes, his second son-in-law!"

The room was full of acquaintances, and someone saw Yang Dongsheng who had just entered the room, "Mr. Yang, I happen to be empty!"

After Yang Dongsheng sat down, he looked around, "Has anyone seen the bride? What are you doing? Why didn't you hear anything before?"

"I don't know what it looks like, but I heard it's only twenty this year!" The other party said while holding out two fingers.

"Only twenty! Isn't that not as old as the fifth child in their family?"

"More than that! I heard that this woman is from the cafeteria of their factory!"

"what!"

The wedding banquet officially started, and Lao Cen came to toast with the bride. Yang Dongsheng took a look, at most she was pretty, and he didn't know what Lao Cen liked about her.

After the new year, news came from Japan that Yang Dongsheng's purchase of LCD panel patent authorization has not been progressed.
