Chapter two hundred and eighty third
No matter how predictable people are, or practitioners in the technology industry who are confident about the domestic Internet, they will never hear such arrogant words.
Twenty-five million users in three years, 100 million in ten years. This slogan makes people crazy. After seeing Song Yang’s prediction, people outside the Internet industry felt that Song Yang was talking about the train. What is the concept of 100 million Internet users?
That is, computers will enter tens of millions of home users in China.
People in the Internet and technology industries listened with excitement. If, as Song Yang said, the domestic Internet can reach that point, it means that a gold mine has appeared in front of us. These 100 million users are enough to support several
A world-class Internet giant company!
In addition to Song Yang's predictions about the domestic Internet market, the other "global village", "third technological revolution", "mobile Internet wave", and "time machine theory" also made countless people stunned.
.
The next day, all major domestic technology and financial media, without exception, were all reporting on Song Yang’s interview last night. All kinds of comments almost turned into a pot of porridge. There were also media reports about Song Yang’s interview with Zhang Chaoyang yesterday.
The "time machine" theory was also published in newspapers, causing all kinds of public opinions to agitate.
Song Yang's arrival, as well as the predictions and theories he put forward, made the domestic Internet industry, like a boiling flame, poured another basin of hot oil on it, and began to explode!
There were some who questioned and some supported Song Yang's remarks. Regardless of support or opposition, the Internet wave began to appear in China.
And the effect was unexpected. Almost the next day, three companies including Yanjing Trust, Xingda Investment, and Communications Construction announced their investment in Yinghaiwei, with the investment scale to be more than 20 million yuan!
Having just received three million U.S. dollars in venture capital from Song Yang, and in the blink of an eye, it received another twenty million yuan. Yinghaiwei once again made the technology industry crazy. I never thought that one day money would be so burning!
After receiving the money, Yinghaiwei immediately announced an ambitious plan to initially build a backbone network in the country and build eight more branches in the country. It also shouted a deafening slogan to make Yinghaiwei's network cables cover all major cities in the country.
…
Postal and telecommunications companies and telecom operators didn’t dare to shout this slogan. Song Yang didn’t know where Yinghaiwei got the courage to shout it.
As for Yinghaiwei's report, Song Yang only paid attention to it and stopped paying attention. Yinghaiwei's current position is very special. It is not only a company, but also bears the important task of popularizing the Internet in the country. This should not be borne by it in the first place.
, but now it is Yinghaiwei who is doing it.
The three companies that invested in Yinghaiwei this time are all state-owned assets. They obviously intend to let Yinghaiwei enter the domestic Internet market. They want to see what Yinghaiwei can do, otherwise it would not be possible to spend tens of millions of yuan.
, burn money for Yinghaiwei.
In addition to Yinghaiwei, the Aitexin website was officially renamed Sohu. Boss Zhang was obviously very willing to follow suit. The entire Sohu website also began large-scale changes, transforming into a portal website, and posted recruitment advertisements to recruit technical personnel.
, Sohu is preparing to develop its own on-site search engine.
Song Yang was taking Greg, Marcus, Fang Qiuyu and others to meet with Zhang Songcheng.
The meeting place was an inconspicuous small building, but there were many people entering the conference room, including the Ministry of Electronic Information, the Ministry of Commerce, and the Ministry of Machinery Industry. For this meeting with Song Yang, I gave
High enough specifications.
Zhang Songcheng was the first to speak, and said to Song Yang, "We welcome everyone to invest in the country, and we also welcome the Asia Star Foundation to settle in the country!"
Zhang Songcheng is also expressing his attitude on behalf of several major units and departments present today. He naturally welcomes Song Yang's arrival this time.
Fang Qiuyu also said at this time, "Chief Zhang, the Star Wishes Foundation hopes to enter more businesses and markets in the country. Mr. Song also hopes to invest in more industries in the country!"
Nowadays, in China, the industries that foreign capital can enter are far less easy than in later generations, let alone just hoarding hundreds of courtyard houses, which is basically bullshit. Even if they enter an industry, it is basically a joint venture.
Fang Qiuyu wants the Star Wishes Foundation to be allowed to enter more industries in the country and invest in companies in more industries, including purchasing properties, etc.
Zhang Songcheng glanced at Song Yang, then said with a smile, "In principle, the country is willing to allow Mr. Song to invest more, as long as it is within the allowed range!"
At this time, Greg also spoke and said through a translator, "This time we are in China. In addition to the Internet industry, we also have other investments."
"Alcatel Mobile Phone wants to put its production base in China and form an industrial chain with related domestic companies!"
This news surprised everyone in Zhang Songcheng. This time Song Yang had spent a lot of money in the country. The country had also heard about Song Yang's entry into the mobile phone industry, but they did not expect that Song Yang would actually want to build a mobile phone production base.
Together with the industrial chain, they were all placed in China, which was beyond their expectations.
Moreover, locating the entire production base in China is not a small investment. It is also necessary to integrate the industrial chain domestically, that is, to allow many domestic companies to produce accessories for Alcatel mobile phones. This is probably a huge investment.
Huge investment!
Even mobile phone manufacturers such as Nokia and Motorola, which have entered the country for a long time, although their production bases are located in China, their key components, such as chip processors, motherboards, batteries, etc., are basically produced abroad and then shipped to China for assembly.
In China, you basically make money from assembly.
"Mr. Song, are you really planning to set up a production base in China and put all the industrial chain in China?"
The representative of the Ministry of Machinery Industry who came to attend this meeting couldn't help but ask Song Yang. He knew he was a little rude, but he still couldn't help it.
The people who came from the Ministry of Machinery Industry originally thought they were just going through the motions to see if there was anything we could cooperate with, but who knew they would get a big gift package?
Song Yang nodded, "Alcatel mobile phones are expected to invest about 100 million U.S. dollars. The production base is expected to be completed within two years. It is expected that within two years, Alcatel will purchase about 50% of its parts from China. In three years
Reaching 70%, and eventually achieving a domestic procurement rate of over 90% for Alcatel mobile phone parts!”
"Of course, Alcatel will provide funds for parts companies that join the Alcatel industry chain to develop and improve production technology. But if they do not meet the technical requirements, Alcatel mobile phones will also refuse to cooperate!"
Song Yang said this ugly thing earlier. Nowadays, domestic parts manufacturers are basically dominated by state-owned enterprises. This is inevitable. In addition, the Ministry of Machinery Industry, the Ministry of Commerce, etc. will definitely give priority to recommending state-owned enterprises.
Manufacturers have come to become Alcatel's parts suppliers, and when the time comes, if problems arise, they may inevitably fall out.
"No problem," the representative of the Ministry of Machinery Industry agreed directly without thinking, "I can guarantee Mr. Song that the Alcatel production base will be completed within two years and will not delay the production of Alcatel mobile phones and parts.
The supplier decision is completely made by Alcatel Mobile Phones and we will never interfere!”
Regardless of the market situation of Alcatel mobile phones, Song Yang agreed to let domestic parts manufacturers provide parts for Alcatel mobile phones. This is enough, not to mention that Song Yang also paid for domestic parts.
Manufacturers, improve R&D capabilities and technology.
This is like introducing Tesla into the country. Even if this thing is not good in any way, its industrial chain will all use parts from domestic manufacturers, so that the parts technology and level of domestic electric vehicles will reach the best in the industry.
level, this is actually a profit.
The representative of the Ministry of Machinery Industry really couldn't find a reason to refuse. There is definitely a risk. If Alcatel mobile phones cannot be sold at all, it may cause a number of domestic electronic components manufacturers to suffer losses or even go bankrupt. But if Alcatel
Now that mobile phones have become available, let alone how much money domestic electronic components manufacturers make. Thanks to Alcatel, the technology and level of components have directly jumped to the top level in the industry.
To put it bluntly, with these leading mobile phone parts suppliers in the industry, the OEM technology level of domestic brand mobile phones may be greatly improved, and they no longer need to be controlled by others!
"In addition to the mobile phone business, I am also preparing to start a new business. It may be risky, but I want to cooperate with a domestic company!" Song Yang said while looking at Zhang Songcheng and others sitting opposite.
Zhang Songcheng and several others looked at each other, and then motioned for Song Yang to continue. They didn't know what Song Yang was going to say, but it was obviously not a trivial matter.
"We want to cooperate with Jinling Panda TV Company to establish a new Panda TV company. The funds and technology will be borne by me. Panda TV infringes the brand and production line to invest in the new brand. Panda TV can hold 40% of the shares!"
Zhang Songcheng and everyone sitting here looked at each other in shock. They never expected that Song Yang would enter the television industry.
Nowadays, the domestic TV industry is fighting fiercely and engaging in price wars. At the beginning of this year, Changhong launched a price war. The domestic TV industry is bleeding like a river. Konka, Changhong, TCL, and Hisense are cutting prices to seize the market.
The TV brands of the older generation, such as Panda, Peony, Huanghe, and Venus, have been in recession in recent years, and now they have been severely beaten. Now their market share is no longer necessary, and Panda TV has begun to retreat into the background.
Of course, the technology is definitely there. In addition, compared to other TV brands, Panda has a deeper background. It is transforming into a screen manufacturer and has just introduced several screen production lines from Nippon.
Zhang Songcheng did not expect that Song Yang would enter this sunset industry, and it was an industry that was not profitable at all. In the TV industry around the world, people sell a lot but make no money.
