Tonight's protagonist was Lu Qintian and Li Xuan, after chatting with him, he and his girlfriend found an inconspicuous corner to sit down. ∷ top ∷ǎn ∷ small ∷ said,

"Didn't you say that the picture tube is the core component of Dongfang Electronics Company? Why don't you control it yourself, but introduce Lu's Electronics to disperse the equity!" Zhong Chuhong asked in confusion. Under the constant scrutiny of Li Xuan's side, she is no longer ignorant of business.

Li Xuan organized the language and explained to his girlfriend: "The only purpose of building the factory is to realize some self-supply of important parts and components, so as to ensure that production will not be stopped in the event of an emergency! For example, Malaysia suffered a severe flood last year. The factories of several well-known pb manufacturers in Japan near Kuala Lumpur were severely affected, resulting in rising global prices and tight supply of pb (printed circuit board) substrates!

For another example, a few months ago, the US Congress just passed a new bill that allows home phone users to purchase any telephone without the approval of the telephone company. This bill instantly activated the US telephone sales market.

In the past, users in the United States had to buy telephones specified by the telephone company, and the main market share was firmly controlled by several large companies. But now that there are no restrictions, it has become a completely free competition market, which gives many small brands the opportunity to win on price. It is said that more than 50 electronics factories in Hong Kong have started to produce various home phones for export to the United States.

However, these electronics companies in Hong Kong can only do the simplest assembly process, and the core components are all imported. European and American parts companies have raised their parts prices since last month, and most of their profits have been captured by these upstream companies. Similarly, if our company can have some production capacity. When negotiating prices with upstream suppliers, there is more room for manoeuvre, and there is enough confidence to slowly grind with them!

Picture tubes are used a lot in arcade machines and computer monitors. But it is not a core technology, and the key patents are in the hands of other companies. Therefore, we naturally do not need to invest too much energy in this! The construction and management of such a large-scale electronic factory is a very labor-intensive thing! "

"Li Sheng, hello!" A spirited old man came over to greet him warmly.

"Secretary Yao, hello!" Li Xuan recognized at a glance the old man in front of him with a full-fledged voice and a red face. He is Yao Geng, chairman of China Merchants Group and secretary of the working committee of Shekou Industrial Zone.

The kinescope factory jointly built by Dongfang Electronics, RA and Lu's Electronics is not a small factory, but a series of complete factories including color tube factory, color tube glass factory, phosphor powder factory, etc. The total investment is as high as 200 million Hong Kong dollars . Hong Kong is unlikely to provide cheap industrial land for such a large-scale electronics factory, so the new factory will be located in the mainland.

Lu's Electronics is one of the investors. On behalf of the joint venture factory, it has started preliminary communication with the mainland government. Shekou Industrial Zone is one of the candidate construction sites for the new plant. If the picture tube factory is settled in Shekou, it is very likely to become the largest foreign investment in the Shekou Industrial Zone since its establishment in 1979. Naturally, the management committee of the Industrial Zone is very enthusiastic about this.

Shekou Industrial Zone was established earlier than the Deep Sea Special Zone. It is China's first export-oriented economic development zone wholly-owned by Hong Kong Merchants Group. The predecessor of the Hong Kong Merchants Group was the Steamship China Merchants Group, a government-supervised business-run enterprise founded by Li Hongzhang during the Westernization Movement in 1873. After the founding of New China, the property of China Merchants in the mainland was taken over by the people's government, and the employees who moved to Hong Kong and declared an uprising in 1950. After the uprising, China Merchants Group continued to operate and develop in Hong Kong, and now it has become one of the three major Chinese-funded enterprises of the mainland central government stationed in Hong Kong.

Since its establishment in Hong Kong in 1950, China Merchants Group has been operating in accordance with Hong Kong's commercial rules. It has gradually integrated into the Hong Kong economic system and has become a Chinese-funded company widely recognized by the Hong Kong business community. The preliminary funds required by China Merchants to develop the Shekou Industrial Zone were all borrowed from Hong Kong banks such as BOCHK, HSBC, and Hang Seng.

However, in the first period of time when the Shekou Industrial Zone was established, there was always a lot of thunder and rain. Wave after wave of Hong Kong businessmen at the Central Wharf. I boarded the reception ferry from China Merchants Group and went to the Shekou Peninsula, which is across the sea from Yuen Long, New Territories.

Until the establishment of the deep-sea special zone, the pace of reform and opening up in the Mainland was unswerving. Hong Kong businessmen are a little more reassured about the sustainability of the mainland policy, and some bold small enterprises have successively invested in Shekou to build factories. In the first nine months of this year, there were more than 50 foreign-funded enterprises in the Shekou Industrial Zone. Most are Hong Kong owners. The industrial site of the first phase of the development zone has basically been fully leased, and the work of three connections and one leveling of the second phase of the land is being intensively carried out.

However, most of the small factories that go to the Shekou Industrial Zone for development are small. The quality of the business is not high. Now suddenly there is an investment of up to 200 million Hong Kong dollars intending to settle in Shekou, which is shocking to the management committee. The investment of this one factory is equal to the total investment of nearly 100 factories introduced since the establishment of the development zone.

"Although Dongfang Electronics is the main investor of the new factory, we are mainly responsible for financial supervision. Mr. Lu Qintian will be in charge of the specific construction work!" Li Xuan said with a smile.

Lu Qintian has already started negotiating with the mainland side. Although the first choice for the joint venture factory is the Shekou Development Zone, the negotiation also needs to pay attention to tactics, and it is impossible to directly expose his trump card. Therefore, Lu's Electronics has also been in frequent communication with the Shangpo Industrial Zone in the Deep Sea Special Zone recently.

Although the Shekou Industrial Zone Management Committee is under the jurisdiction of the SAR government, the industrial zone is mainly developed by the Hong Kong Merchants Group, and is more independent administratively than other parts of the SAR. The special zone has just designated an area near Shangpo as a development zone for the development of the electronics industry. There are already a number of large-scale electronics companies under the Ministry of electronics industry that have come to the special zone for development.

"Compared with the other two industrial zones in the special zone, our Shekou Industrial Zone undoubtedly has more advantages in infrastructure construction, and the policies and services we can provide to foreign enterprises are also more flexible! If Li Sheng has time, he might as well Hai personally investigates on the spot!" Yao Geng added again, seeing the need for a needle.

In the face of the temptation of a huge investment of up to 200 million Hong Kong dollars, the friendship of any brother unit cannot be taken care of. Shangpo Industrial Zone is likely to be Shekou's most important competitor in this large-scale project. Although Yao Geng will not deliberately belittle his opponent, he will show his advantages as much as possible.

Recently, the most important task for everyone in the Shekou Development Zone is to win the CRT project, and relying on the convenience of the Hong Kong Investment Promotion Bureau, Yao Geng has collected more detailed information than the Shangpu Industrial Zone Management Committee and the SAR government. Although Lu's Electronics is in charge of preparing for the new project, the actual leadership is in the hands of the young man in front of him.

Li Xuan has already communicated with Lu Qintian, and he is responsible for the preparation of the new factory, so there is no need to go back on his word and intervene too much. In the future, the personnel dispatched by Dongfang Electronics to the joint venture factory will be mainly responsible for the two aspects of finance and marketing. As long as they can master these two aspects, Li Xuan has the confidence to control the dominance of the project.

So he simply shifted the topic: "The new factory we are planning to build this time is actually far worse than the mainland's construction of a large-scale color picture tube factory in Weicheng, Xi'an Province! Only with strong government leadership can we build the entire factory in one go. Perfect industrial system!"

Yao Geng immediately understood the project Li Xuan was referring to, and nodded his head: "The investment in the 4400 project is relatively large. It is said that the purchase of a full set of new technologies and equipment from Japanese companies such as Hitachi, Asahi Glass, Datu and other Japanese companies will cost more than 1 US$100 million! Li Sheng, your Dongfang Electronics Co., Ltd. products sell well in Europe and the United States, so you don't need to worry about foreign exchange issues. Raw materials can also be purchased from around the world, and many secondary processes do not need to be built by yourself!

However, the 4400 project is different. Its main responsibility is to solve the shortage of picture tubes in China. One of the most important purposes of building a factory is to reduce the foreign exchange index of products. At present, most of the picture tube factories in China can only import components from abroad for assembly, and the cost of a color tube is more than 50 US dollars. After the completion of the Weicheng Color Tube Factory, it is said that it can be reduced to 12 US dollars, which can save the country more than 50 million US dollars in foreign exchange for purchasing picture tubes every year! "

Li Xuan couldn't help but admire the old man in front of him~www.readwn.com~ It seems that he has done enough homework for the kinescope industry. And the purpose of his understanding of this information is naturally aimed at the joint venture project. Otherwise, no matter how large the investment in the picture tube factory in the far northwest is, it has nothing to do with him, the secretary of the Shekou Industrial Zone.

The total investment of Weicheng Color Tube Factory in Xishan Province is as high as 700 million RMB, and the annual output is 1 million color picture tubes of various sizes. The total investment of the first phase of the picture tube factory that Li Xuan is planning to build is only 200 million Hong Kong dollars, but the annual output is as high as 1.5 million, including 1.2 million color tubes. It's not that Li Xuan has the magical ability to spend a small amount of money to do big things, but he doesn't need to build a complete industrial system like the Weicheng Color Tube Factory.

"It is very difficult to establish a complete industrial system. Previously, RA Company was in Poland, and Hitachi Company failed to succeed in Finland! Not long ago, Mr. Hardy, the technical expert of RA Company, was just invited to visit Xishaan. The evaluation of the Weicheng project is very high.

And Mr. Hardy will be the chief technical representative of ra company, responsible for the technical support of our new factory. He hopes to communicate more with the domestic counterparts in Weicheng and absorb their excellent experience. At that time, the mainland government will be needed. Much support! "Li Xuan said.
