Chapter 315: The plan to remove the firepower from under the cauldron

"Yes, everyone has worked hard. However, the road ahead is still very tortuous. Lao Sa said that the technological gap between Charming Manufacturing and companies such as Samsung is still about 1.5 generations. We all know that technological progress becomes more and more difficult.

The gap is still huge.”

To be honest, Hu Yang was filled with emotion at this time. As a technological laggard, it was too difficult. The difficulties he faced were not only the problems of talents and funds, but also the technical blockade of others, as well as the challenges from some giants.

Suppress.

For example, Bangzi Samsung has announced that they are about to mass-produce a new generation of memory chips, including memory and flash memory. They have not eliminated previous products, but are preparing to significantly reduce prices and dump them.

This is equivalent to saying that the products that Charming Manufacturing went through a lot of difficulties to produce will face price wars from competitors as soon as they are released due to technical gaps.

Yan Hanzhang, who was excited just a second ago, also thought about this problem and couldn't help but fell silent.

After several minutes, Yan Hanzhang said: "No matter how difficult it is, we can't stop chasing. Mr. Hu, Charming Electronics has decided to fully use the memory chips designed and manufactured by our company. In this way, we can provide

Charm manufacturing relieves a lot of cost pressure."

The best way for international giants to suppress industry pursuers is to engage in price wars. Anyway, they have the most advanced technology, and the profits of the latest generation of products are enough to make up for the meager profits or even losses of the previous generation or two generations of products.

But for emerging factories, such as Charming Manufacturing, due to the generation gap in technology, your products are constantly losing money as soon as they are produced. How can the company develop? How can it catch up technically?

Unless you invest huge amounts of money and endure this situation for a long time year after year, until one day you can stand at the top of technology.

Fortunately, Charming Technology Group has its own complete industrial chain. From design to manufacturing to consumer electronics, it can internally absorb a large part of the new factory's production capacity.

"Mr. Yan, for charm manufacturing, the hard days have just begun. We must be prepared for the company to make little or no profit for five to ten years."

Hu Yang sighed lightly, but immediately adjusted his mentality.

He always remembered that in his previous life, when South Korean companies such as Samsung SK controlled most of the world's memory chip production capacity, they increased prices sevenfold within three years.

Therefore, Populus euphratica will never back down.

Yan Hanzhang walked out of Hu Yang's office with mixed emotions. He needed to go to Charming Electronics to study with them to see if they could continue to launch new products and then increase support for Charming Manufacturing.

Hu Yang did not stop Yan Hanzhang. He felt that it was still the stage of laying the foundation, and the company would be successful if it could sustain itself.

...

"Mr. Hu, it's almost time. Many leaders will be present at today's completion ceremony. Should we leave early?"

In the morning, Hu Yang had breakfast at home, and Lin Yan urged him to leave quickly according to his schedule. Today is the day when the completion ceremony of the expansion project of the science and technology incubator park will be held.

"Well, I remember it. I haven't forgotten it. So, ask Ajie to prepare the vehicle and I'll go out right away."

Hu Yang waved his hand and signaled Lin Yan to go out first, then he went back to his room and changed his clothes before getting into the car.

Speaking of which, the Science and Technology Incubator Park is not a big project, but it has very important practical significance. From the beginning, Shenhai has had a development strategy of "revitalizing the city through science and technology", and technological innovation is the soul of this city.

Therefore, many excellent companies, even world-class companies, will be born in the deep sea in the future.

At today's completion ceremony, many big figures from the city came. Radio, television, and all media were also present, and the intensity of coverage was unprecedented.

However, Hu Yang did not go on stage to speak, nor did he step forward to cut the ribbon. All these activities were conducted by Xu Younian, the general manager of Huijia Holdings, as the plenipotentiary representative.

"Brother Hu, are you keeping a low profile? I think it's okay to show your face in this kind of activity. At least you can look familiar in front of the leaders, right?"

Chen Jialin also came to participate in the event today. Gao Mingkang and Lu Yali entrusted an executive from Mingkang Communications to come because they were out of town.

Hu Yang did not send invitations to many people. Instead, most of the guests who came today were people from the city.

"I originally wanted Mr. Mu to come back, but considering that he is very busy at work, I let Xu Younian take charge alone. To be honest, Mr. Mu has put in a lot of effort in the technology incubator."

When Xu Younian took over, the expansion project of the science and technology incubator park had come to an end. Many people in the city did not know the newly appointed boss, so it would be beneficial for him to come forward.

The two chatted quietly, and the ceremony began immediately.

The leader's speech, Xu Younian's speech, and then the ribbon-cutting complete the whole ceremony.

"Mr. Hu, Mr. Chen."

Hu Yang did not intend to go in with a group of people to visit. Just when he was about to leave, Xu Younian ran out from inside.

"If you don't greet the leaders inside, what are you doing out here?"

Hu Yang asked strangely.

"Well, Mr. Hu, a leader in the city wants to see you. Please wait a moment."

After Xu Younian finished speaking, he whispered a name. When Hu Yang heard it, he turned out to be the master of Shenhai, but he didn't know what he was looking for.

"Okay, then I'll go to the conference room and sit for a while."

Hu Yang didn't ask any more questions, and Xu Younian probably didn't know the answer either.

"Okay, brother Hu, I'll take the first step. Besides, the New Year is coming soon. I plan to go to Thailand to celebrate New Year's Day. You can come with me."

Chen Jialin said goodbye to Populus euphratica with a wink, and made arrangements for New Year's Day before leaving.

"Okay, just make arrangements."

Hu Yang waved his hand casually and turned around and walked into the building. Xu Younian asked one of his subordinates to lead Hu Yang to the conference room. He himself had to greet the guests.

After waiting for about twenty minutes, Qi Xiangmin walked in.

Hu Yang quickly stood up and said hello politely.

"Sit down, why are you getting up? Mr. Hu, I found that you must know how to maintain good health, otherwise your complexion is getting better and better..."

Qi Xiangmin and Hu Yang were no strangers and had met several times before. However, it was the first time that Hu Yang discovered that Qi Xiangmin had such an easy-going side. Perhaps it was because there were only two of them in the conference room?

"I don't know how to maintain good health. I just don't like to worry. Unlike you, who have to take care of everything all day long and have endless worries."

Hu Yang smiled and sat down with Qi Xiangmin.

"Well, Mr. Hu, let's make a long story short. You should know the Wutongshan Tunnel, right? Due to historical reasons, this tunnel has always adopted a toll mode. But now, this mode not only affects the traffic efficiency, but also caused a lot of controversy among the masses.

dissatisfied."

Qi Xiangmin said this, picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea, which also gave Populus euphratica some time to react.

This tunnel is certainly no stranger to Populus euphratica. It is a major artery connecting the urban area and the port area.

The tunnel was built in 1987. In 1997, Director Li's companies invested in and participated in the operation of the tunnel company, with a toll period of thirty years.

As the rapid development of the port area drives and radiates the economy, the traffic volume of Wutongshan Tunnel has also increased rapidly. In 2000, the daily traffic volume has exceeded 26,000 vehicles. The traffic pressure of Wutongshan Tunnel has increased sharply, and vehicles are charged for passing through the tunnel.

10-30 yuan began to be criticized

It was also from this period that the city came up with the idea of ​​buying back the tunnel, intending to take back the operating rights and make it free of charge.

In his memory, the negotiations between the city and the other party were not smooth, and the negotiations lasted for more than ten years. During the negotiation process, the city had been planning the construction of the second channel, which was completed and opened to traffic in 2008.

The Wutongshan Tunnel was not repurchased by the city until 2011 and became free for traffic in March of that year.

After sorting out the memories in his mind, Hu Yang glanced at Qi Xiangmin and said, "What do you mean?"

"Mr. Hu, to tell you the truth, after several years of negotiations, it may be difficult to repurchase the tunnel company. The city plans to invest 900 million yuan for the repurchase, but the other party wants a price of 1.3 billion yuan. How can we negotiate?

?Actually, we invested 900 million yuan, and the other party has already made a huge profit.

Of course, since there is a contract first, the city cannot force others. But if the economy wants to develop, we cannot just ignore this bottleneck and not break it. I asked you to stay today just to tell you something. The city wants to

Build a second channel from the urban area to the port area.

Originally, because there was a temporary funding gap in the city, I was planning to start construction in two years. But today I saw the success of the technology incubator, and I have new ideas. I wonder if Mr. Hu is interested in investing in infrastructure?"

After going full circle, Qi Xiangmin actually intends to let private capital participate in the construction of the second channel.

"I will definitely support the city's construction, but according to my understanding, this second passage should be free of charge, right? I would like to ask, if there is private capital willing to invest, how can we achieve reasonable profits?"

Hu Yang did not believe that the city would let people give money for free, which was not in line with economic laws. Of course, Hu Yang would not consider too many interests, and he was not Director Li.

"Look, I know that Mr. Hu is a sensible person. Now that the city has a preliminary idea, I will treat it as chatting with you. For example, if you invest in building a second channel, the city will write it down in the contract.

, will be repurchased within a certain period of time. This period is about three years. In addition, after the completion of the project, it will definitely be free of charge, and the city will provide certain financial subsidies to enterprises."

What Qi Xiangmin meant was to borrow the chickens to lay eggs and then buy them back when the time comes.

Of course, if you wait a few years, the city will have enough construction funds. But in the later years, the hidden losses caused may be far greater than the financial subsidies in recent years.

Isn’t there a slogan in the deep sea? Time is money, efficiency is life.
