Rebirth of the Great Era 1993

At around 9 p.m., Zhang Xuan and Du Shuangling returned to their new home in Shanghai.

Du Shuangling seemed a little excited when he first arrived. She pulled him on the sofa and watched TV for a long time before falling asleep.

Early next morning.

After breakfast, Wenhui came to pick up Du Shuangling, saying that she would go to the music store to find a location first, and then go shopping.

Zhang Xuan was happy to have someone accompany his wife, and immediately drove to Zhangjiang Industrial Park.

We haven’t seen each other for a month, and there have been a lot of changes here, not to mention the arrival of a number of new companies. Yintai Technology's two new factories are also progressing rapidly.

Accompanied by Li Mei, Zhang Xuan visited the entire mobile phone factory and spent an hour communicating with Wu Yong and Hu Yicheng, the leaders of the two mobile phone R\u0026D teams.

Back in the office, Zhang Xuan asked Li Mei: What is the current situation of PHS's supporting companies here?

Li Mei poured him a cup of tea, sat to the side and said: The introduction of PHS supporting enterprises in Zhangjiang is not ideal.

Either companies are unwilling to come, or the authorities look down on those companies. Another situation is that some products cannot be provided in the mainland, such as chips and cables, which have to be imported from across the strait.

Hearing the chip, Zhang Xuan frowned, then walked around it and asked: What about the first two situations?

Li Mei said: “Some small high-tech companies believe that the overall development conditions and support in Zhangjiang are not as good as other places, and it is difficult to survive in the Shanghai market, so they are unwilling to move.

There are some companies that are not considered high-tech companies and are not interested, such as BYD.

Zhang Xuan was stunned, as if he had heard a fantasy: The higher-ups are not interested in BYD?

Li Mei nodded: No, the higher-ups think that producing batteries is a common thing, but the pollution is very large, which is not conducive to the introduction of enterprises and sustainable development of Zhangjiang Science and Technology Park in the future.

Zhang Xuan pinched the thigh meat with his right hand and couldn't help but ask: Who said this?

So damn knowledgeable! If chrome-plated batteries and lithium batteries are not high-tech products, then why do those powerful Japanese and Korean companies such as Sony, Samsung, and Hitachi join forces to suppress BYD? Can't you use your brain properly?

Li Mei laughed when she saw him swearing at him for the first time and explained: I think there is something wrong with the atmosphere here. The higher-ups seem to favor foreign companies very much, and both the staff and the people on the streets have a blind worship of foreign capital.

Maybe it’s because it wants to build a financial capital, but the policy obviously favors financial companies and looks down upon local grassroots companies.

At this point, Li Mei said again: To be honest, if you were famous and had so much money in your pocket that no one would dare to despise it, the mobile phone factory would never have been so successful.

Zhang Xuan sighed, isn't this reality?

Think about it in future generations. Of all the awesome Internet companies, which one has taken root in the Shanghai stock market?

Although the congenital conditions are so good, it lags behind other first-tier cities in the country in the information industry revolution. It has to be said that this is the cause and effect of the preferences of this period.

After a long silence, Zhang Xuan, after drinking a cup of tea, drew his attention back and asked, Who doesn't like BYD?

Li Mei picked up a pen and wrote a name on the paper, then pushed the paper to him.

Zhang Xuan took the paper, looked at it, put it aside and asked, What is BYD's attitude towards this?

Li Mei told: At first, Mr. Wang of BYD was very enthusiastic, but after several talks, we couldn't reach an agreement. The attitude of the superiors has always been relatively weak. Now Mr. Wang's attitude has also changed. If it doesn't work, the battery will continue to work. It’s shipped from Guangdong Province and they pay the freight.”

This is not a problem of shipping costs, but an ecological problem of improving the mobile phone industry chain.

Zhang Xuan slapped his right hand on the white paper and said, After the meeting, I will go talk to the boss in person. I believe the problem is not big.

Hearing this, Li Mei breathed a sigh of relief and felt reassured. BYD batteries are a critical link in the supply chain, so they certainly don’t want problems to arise.

The two chatted for a while, and Zhang Xuan asked Li Mei: Has BYD President arrived?

After hearing Xian Zhiya's intention, Li Mei asked: Do you want to meet him?

Zhang Xuan said: Although I have not done in-depth research on battery technology, I know that this thing is critical to us, and it would definitely be very meaningful if we can see it easily.

Li Mei said: That's a pity. Mr. Wang led a team to inspect the winding Foxconn some time ago and has not returned to the mainland yet.

Today is the Vice President of BYD. Do you want to meet him?

When you go to Foxconn to inspect, you won’t be poaching people, right?

In my memory, Foxconn and BYD had a big quarrel over OEM technology issues, and they were at odds for a long time.

Zhang Xuan waved his hand: Forget it, Vice President. Next time Mr. Wang comes over, please let me know and have a meal together.

Li Mei silently wrote down this matter.

Then Li Mei asked: What do you think about investing in BYD?

Zhang Xuan waved his hand and interrupted: I have no objection. I am very optimistic about BYD's prospects. You can ask for as many shares as you can. As long as BYD dares to give it, you can just take it all. There is no need to ask me for instructions.

The two of them coincided with each other on this matter, and Li Mei happened to mean the same thing.

She said: I had an in-depth talk with Mr. Wang of BYD last time. He was very interested in PHS cables, and I also intend to let him do it. It is not a long-term solution to always import mobile phone cables from the bend.

Zhang Xuan said: We can support BYD. But we have to wait until we acquire a stake in BYD before we discuss it. This is also a big bargaining chip.

Li Mei agreed and added: The company is now full of practical talents and lacks experts in capital operations. I plan to borrow talents from Yintai Capital first. If necessary in the future, we will set up a professional investment department to be responsible for the entire mobile phone industry. Chain investment and resource integration.”

Zhang Xuan did not object: I think this idea is feasible. When Lao Deng arrives, you can talk to him about this matter in detail. He is more experienced.

Li Mei agreed.

Starting at ten o'clock in the morning, the PHS supplier conference was held on time.

At the meeting, Zhang Xuan, apart from delivering an opening speech, basically listened.

There is nothing that requires his intervention now. Nowadays, Yintai Technology is very popular in China because of PHS.

Even BYD admires Intime Technology, and all the suppliers on site are very docile. In addition, Intime Technology's services are relatively fair, and the atmosphere has always been lively.

With the support of Intime Technology, 13 companies directly expressed their willingness to move to the surrounding areas of Shanghai.

The situation was excellent. Zhang Xuan drank tea and felt very happy.

After the meeting, Zhang Xuan chaired a high-level meeting of the company.

The main topic of the meeting was one: Facing constant pressure from foreign mobile phone manufacturers such as Nokia and Motorola, Intime Technology made the decision to cut prices for the first time.

The price of PHS is directly reduced by 1,000 yuan from the original price of 5888 yuan, and 988 yuan of phone credit is included.

This results in the profit of each PHS being only about 2,700 yuan. Compared with the initial 5,000 yuan, it can be said to be a cut of less than half.

However, Zhang Xuan knows that with the integration and improvement of the supply chain, the cost will only get lower and lower, and a thousand-yuan machine will not be a dream in the future.

We Chinese are their ancestors and have never been afraid of price wars.

In fact, this supply chain integration is forced out of necessity and is imperative.

The reason is also very simple. With the popularity of PHS, the prices of many materials are increasing, and some companies even take the opportunity to drive up prices, which is very detrimental to Intime Technology.

This made Li Mei and others realize that only by forming their own alliance, advancing together and retreating together, and sharing this big cake can sustainable development be achieved.

At the beginning of the night, when Zhang Xuan walked out of Zhangjiang High-tech Park, the time came to past 7 pm unknowingly.

Open and close the phone, and missed calls and text messages instantly fill the small screen.

The old rule is to check missed calls first. Then I called them one by one and found that they were all Lantern Festival congratulations.

When calling Lao Du's house, Ai Qing asked: Did Shuang Ling say that you have arrived in Shanghai?

Zhang Xuan replied: Yes. Firstly, I bought a new house here and brought the couple over to take a look; secondly, there is something going on at the mobile phone factory.

Ai Qing breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that the two had bought a new house in Shanghai.

Although she never mentions Wen Hui in front of outsiders, it doesn't mean that she doesn't know, guess, or doubt?

As a person who can manage her husband obediently, Ai Qing has her own set of women's rules. I would never be stupid enough to think that such an excellent Zhang Xuan would only live alone with his two actors.

Zhang Xuan is now the most energetic age, and it is his nature to love to play. There are some things that need to be turned a blind eye in order to live a good life.

Putting down the phone, Du Jingling next to her asked: Zhang Xuan bought a house for his sister in Shanghai?

Ai Qing nodded happily: Shuang Ling didn't tell us about such a big thing.

Du Jingling was also happy and said with relief: It's right not to tell. Some things are more meaningful when they come out of Zhang Xuan's mouth. It seems that Shuangling has really grown up. You shouldn't have to worry too much in the future.

Ai Qing stood up: You take good care of your children at home, I'll go to the village.

Du Jinling knew that her mother was afraid that Aunt Xiuqin would be alone at home, so she accompanied her.

After a series of phone calls, Zhang Xuan finally called the courtyard in Beijing and talked with Mi Jian's family for a long time before hanging up.

After the phone call, it’s time to text.

Still the same, mostly congratulatory text messages.

One of them, with the note Wen Yu, sent a text message: Dear, I can't call you. I think you are still busy. I'm spending the Lantern Festival at Huihui's house now. Call me when you're done.

After reading this text message, Zhang Xuan put away his phone. The time was running out and he had no intention of going to Wen Hui's house so early.

Wait until they have finished celebrating the Lantern Festival before picking up the two actors.

Zhang Xuan asked Zhao Lei who was driving: Has there been any change in my hometown this time I go back?

Zhao Lei said: There are no big changes, but after half a year of absence, the child has grown a lot.

Zhang Xuan sighed: Thank you for your hard work.

Zhao Lei glanced at him through the rearview mirror and remained silent.

After looking through the car window for a while, he said: Find a higher-end restaurant. Let's have a good meal during the Lantern Festival today.
