Volume 7, Section 130, The Tide Surges (2)

"Secretary Mao, the photovoltaic industry is not particularly high-end from a technical perspective. Compared with chips, it seems to be more single, and technology is easier to make breakthroughs. However, in the past, China did not pay enough attention to this industry, so it developed slowly. However, as Europe is at the forefront of this field, especially when photovoltaic power generation applications are at the forefront, Europeans attach more importance to environmental protection and clean energy. After completing the heavy chemical industry stage, they hope to replace fossil energy such as coal and oil in this field." Sha Zhengyang explained: "So in the future, the European market will become larger and larger, which is precisely the opportunity for domestic companies."

"The polysilicon industry can barely be regarded as a capital-intensive industry with large investments. Once the technology is mastered, it is still secondary. What is more important is cost control, and its demand for electricity prices, stability and water is relatively high, so for Qindu, this is exactly its advantage,..."

"At present, this domestic industrial market is in its infancy, but I feel that it will soon usher in a burst period. With the expansion of the photovoltaic power generation market in the international market, the prices of photovoltaic modules and polysilicon raw materials may face a relatively long upward trend. MCC has also seen this. Hanhai Hi-Tech hopes to prepare for the next step of electronic-grade polysilicon production by early layout of solar-grade polysilicon production, which they consider from a longer-term perspective."

Sha Zhengyang's explanation made Mao Xiangdong understand the meaning roughly.

Behind Hanhai Hi-Tech are many forces, including the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Fudan University, Oriental Hong Group, Gaosheng Electronics, and even the Shanghai Municipal Government. This is a mixed entity that combines the national team, local governments, private capital and scientific research institutes. It is said that the Hanchuan Provincial Government and West China University of Science and Technology are also interested in joining it. Perhaps this has the intention of the senior management to build a comprehensive high-tech enterprise that can have the world's advanced level, such as Intel or Microsoft.

It is because Sha Zhengyang does not advocate that the government directly intervenes in enterprises, and it is better to support it with policy support and regulation. It is not as good as tax reductions, financial subsidies and government procurement for high-tech enterprises, especially government procurement. There is no reason why foreign companies can frequently succeed in public relations under similar conditions.

But Sha Zhengyang also knows that if Chinese companies want to keep pace with the world in the future and compete with foreign multinational giants, what the Chinese central and local governments need to do is to create an excellent and relaxed environment that is more suitable for domestic talent entrepreneurship and enterprise development. This is the most important thing. No matter which field, no matter how good the seeds are, they need to germinate and grow vigorously in a suitable environment.

At this point, especially the mechanism of the United States supporting individual entrepreneurship and corporate technological innovation capabilities, it is more worth learning and reference.

To defeat them, you first need to understand and learn about their strengths.

"Hanhai Hi-Tech is developing very strongly now. Behind this, there is strong support from Dongfanghong Group. You didn't consider putting it in Handu at that time?" Mao Xiangdong was quite puzzled and even more unwilling to do so. "Handu is less in terms of conditions than Shanghai. I know this, but in that case, Lenovo gave up the technical research and development, and Lianhai Microelectronics Design Center was about to be dissolved. If Dongfanghong invested, there would be only a dead end. If you take it back to Handu, there are also Handu University, West China University of Science and Technology and Hanchuan University of Electronic Science and Technology. There is no reason why you can't stand it up, right?"

"Secretary Mao, it's different. Lianhai Microelectronics Design Center was mainly engaged in cooperation with Shanghai Fudan. With the Yangtze River Group, Dongfanghong has no technical reserves and nothing else except investment. If you want such a company to relocate to Handu, it will probably be completely disintegrated. Hanhai Hi-Tech, supported by Dongfanghong Group, does not want to see such a result. Staying in Shanghai is an inevitable choice. The facts also prove that Hanhai Hi-Tech is wise and successful in setting up in Shanghai. Without the strong support of Fudan Microelectronics Center, Hanhai Hi-Tech cannot support the reserves left by Lenovo alone...."

"As for the development to this stage, West China University of Science and Technology and Handu University of Electronic Science and Technology are interested in participating in cooperation, I think Hanhai Hi-Tech is definitely welcome. Chip design and R&D is a long and difficult road. Both talents and funds are always in a hungry state. Many people have not realized this yet, but I think the person in charge of Hanhai Hi-Tech should be sober. Handu is now building this science and technology innovation park. I think it can actually be a cooperation opportunity between Handu and Hanhai Hi-Tech. Hanhai Hi-Tech can set up a R&D base in Handu and establish the R&D direction according to the unified deployment of Hanhai Hi-Tech. The three universities in Handu provide technical talent support, and Hanhai Hi-Tech is responsible for taking the lead and determining the direction. The funding issues can be funded by Hanhai Hi-Tech or raised from other channels,..."

Sha Zhengyang's explanation finally made Mao Xiangdong realize how much investment is needed in the field of chip design and manufacturing. Funds are one aspect, and more importantly, the investment of technical talents and the special environment.

Shanghai has the most cutting-edge window to attract a large number of returning talents from overseas. In this regard, only Yanjing can be compared with it. Handu is still far from this industry before it has been truly developed. Moreover, even as everyone had expected, Handu is truly built into an Internet hot land and electronic information industry base, it is still far from Yanjing and Shanghai in many aspects. Therefore, in a sense, Handu should pursue a model of division of labor and cooperation with Yanjing and Shanghai, and cannot blindly seek to compete with each other.

This conversation made Mao Xiangdong feel more and more that Sha Zhengyang's thinking was clear and accurate in positioning. He did not get out of the way because of the good development momentum of Hanhai Hi-Tech, nor did he talk about some unrealistic ideas in front of him. This definition is worthy of recognition.

"Well, Zhengyang, your opinion is very real. Unlike some people, they feel arrogant if they have a little bit of results. Is there any problem with Ji Guoli?" Mao Xiangdong nodded with satisfaction.

"No problem. I was with him last week. He is very energetic now. He is determined to create new ideas and momentum for this summit forum in April. He has been thinking about making this summit forum unconventional and attracting more talents who are truly ambitious in this industry to join." Sha Zhengyang thought Mao Xiangdong had some opinions on Ji Guoli, but it didn't look like it.

"Well, it's a good thing to have ideas and fighting spirit, but I'm afraid that if I suffer a little setback, I'll be pessimistic again." Mao Xiangdong looked at Sha Zhengyang, "Zhengyang, I think you're farther and deeper in this regard than Ji Guoli. In some aspects, you have to help me give me more tips and guidance. I hope this can form a sustainable process, rather than a gust of wind and a big fire, and then it will disappear after it passes. That's not what I want."

Feeling the weight of Mao Xiangdong's words, Sha Zhengyang certainly did not dare to neglect, "Secretary Mao, don't worry, I will communicate more with Ji Guoli. In addition, I think this summit forum is important, but the most important thing is that we should consider what we leave for the summit forum after it."

"Oh? Tell me." Mao Xiangdong nodded slightly. This was the purpose and significance of his detailed discussion with Sha Zhengyang. Now that the momentum has been built, even the central government has begun to pay attention. However, if the summit forum is messy and it will still do whatever it takes in the future and become yesterday's yellow flower, then the man will become a joke. This is also what he is most worried about. The summit forum has been started, and there are a lot of activities, which is very lively, but what about the future?

How does this science and technology innovation center run? It looks very effective now, and dozens of companies are already rushing to settle down, but is this a hard-core chicken head joint? It will be lost after a while?

The key is that you need to develop sustainably, make this science and technology innovation building more and more attractive, and allow more companies and talents to settle down willingly, and to work satisfactorily here and succeed as you wish in the future. This is what Han Du wants.

"My considerations are still two aspects." Sha Zhengyang sorted out his thoughts, "Some of the ideas and models proposed by the Science and Technology Innovation Building now have something systematic. In a sense, it is more like a gimmick. However, considering that April is the summit forum, it is acceptable. The propaganda method is to attract the public's attention. But the key is how we implement it in the specific implementation policies after the meeting. This requires the Han Metropolitan Government and the Hi-Tech Zone to determine it in the form of documents..."

Mao Xiangdong nodded, "I have considered this point, but Ji Guoli can't do it yet. I will arrange for Executive Vice Mayor Ma Xinpeng to be in charge."

Seeing Mao Xiangdong knowing it, Sha Zhengyang was much more at ease. "The policy is more about rules and regulations, and it also requires some detailed explanations. How to implement it? I think we have to do it well to do it. Don't be learned by later generations and finally overtake us, which will become a joke."

This is not impossible. Mao Xiangdong and Sha Zhengyang are very clear. It is hard to say now. Once there is a year or two, there will be results here. Without thinking about the surrounding and coastal brother cities, they will definitely come to learn and imitate. It can be said that the entire window period is not long and must be the best, so that this soft environment becomes a model, so that the coming companies are unwilling to leave, or even unable to leave.

"What else?" Mao Xiangdong asked again.
