The door of the office was pushed open, and a middle-aged man wearing glasses walked out of it. He spoke on the phone with a southern Henan accent.
As the first secretary of the commercial capital, he accompanied the boss on a special trip and was responsible for coordinating and handling the large-scale projects where Foxconn would settle down.
Looking back at the closed door, Guo Taiming and the leaders were having their first round of secret meetings.
"Really? Really! Everything you said is true!!"
"Are you sure it's Mr. Wang? BYD's Wang Chuanfu!"
"Director Liu, no matter what method you use, you must stabilize Mr. Wang! Hold it! I will report to the boss immediately."
The secretary took a deep breath and walked back in a hurry.
Less than 10 minutes after the door was closed, it was reopened.
Guo Taiming led Foxconn's senior executives and sent the business capital investment promotion working group to the door with a smile.
"Mayor Zhao, I think it's getting late, why don't you stay for a quick meal before leaving?"
"Don't bother Mr. Guo. I want to explain the situation of this negotiation to my superiors." Mayor Zhao said, "I also hope that Mr. Guo will think about it carefully. We sincerely invite Foxconn to settle in southern Henan. If possible, we can do so at any time.
Can you come to Shangdu for inspection?"
"I will definitely, definitely, I will definitely visit when the time comes."
Guo Taiming sent them to the elevator.
When the elevator door closed, the vice president whispered: "Mr. Guo, I think something is a little strange. We obviously had a good conversation, but why did it end so suddenly after his secretary called us?"
"It's probably something urgent."
Guo Tai became famous and said, "Don't be suspicious. It's only the first round of negotiations now. Didn't he invite us to inspect the commercial capital?"
"When the time comes, will our conditions change or not?"
The vice president lowered his voice.
"No change, nothing changes! Why change!"
Guo Taiming grinned. If you want Foxconn to move from Pengcheng to the mall, you must pay a price. In addition to the huge land area of ten square kilometers, there must also be a long tax exemption period that most companies cannot have. The most important thing is
It's about labor.
The government of southern Henan must cooperate fully!
"I'm afraid that if I push Yunan too fast, they will find it..."
The vice president reminded in a low voice.
"If you don't even agree to these conditions, why should Foxconn go to southern Henan!" Guo Taiming's tone was full of disdain.
The vice president decisively shut his mouth and said no more.
"calm down!"
Guo Taiming looked around, "Everywhere Foxconn goes, it means a lot of tax revenue, employment and industrial chain companies have settled in. We are the best target for attracting investment. I don't know how many places are asking us to settle down and bring job opportunities to
them."
"Mr. Guo is wise!"
The vice president and others all flattered him in unison.
"We have taken the initiative. If it hadn't been for those who jumped off the building, if it hadn't been for the media, if it hadn't been for BYD, we could have been more proactive, and we wouldn't have been so passive!"
Guo Taiming gritted his teeth. The reason why Foxconn wanted to move north was not only because it was criticized verbally by public opinion, but also because Pengcheng loved Huawei, Penguin, BYD, and Logic more. It no longer cared about Foxconn and thought of BYD first for any benefit.
It obviously started by copying its own foundry model, but now it is far ahead in terms of scale and profitability!
Isn't it just relying on yourself to hold onto the thigh of logic?
Hugging Mr. Lu’s thigh!
Foxconn also has big muscles! Apple’s! Steve Jobs’s!
After thinking about this, Guo Taiming turned around and asked about the movements of BYD, Wistron, and Helian, his mortal enemies.
Especially BYD, because the news that Logic will build a factory in Tianzhu has spread a lot, and BYD has the greatest impact.
"The logic is still considering investing in the Tianzhu market. It is said that we want to persuade supply chain partners including BYD to invest in India."
The vice president reported: "BYD's reply on Weibo is that if brands such as Apple, Lianxiang, and Nokia, as well as suppliers continue to invest more, action will be taken."
"What does Apple say?"
"Cook is planning to invite Apple's global suppliers to the United States for a meeting."
"Haha, I guess it's the same logic. They want us to invest money and effort in building a factory in Tianzhu, and it will reap the benefits."
"After all, Tianzhu has already said that if we don't build a factory in Tianzhu and invest in it, we will never enter the Tianzhu market. Apple will never allow logic to win over Tianzhu again. I heard that Wistron has already taken action."
"Humph, I don't want to get more apple orders."
"Mr. Guo, then let's..."
"Apple will go ahead and Foxconn will move in. According to the strategy we have set, relocation within the country will be given priority!" Guo Taiming said, "Of course, moving out to Tianzhu can be used as an alternative or as a bargaining chip. It really affects us."
If the situation becomes too urgent, Foxconn will move to Tianzhu!"
"Tianzhu and China are actually similar. If Foxconn can succeed in the mainland, it can also succeed in Tianzhu!"
"If Yunan doesn't agree, we will go to Tianzhu. It's not that we need Yunan, but that Yunan needs us too much!"
"If you give them a job, you must be grateful."
"That's right, even though I already have food, accommodation and work included, I still think 996 is too hard. Working overtime is a kind of preferential treatment."
All other Foxconn executives agreed with the vice president's words.
"That's right, we are the ones enjoying the food."
Guo Taiming put his hands on his hips and turned his back to the floor-to-ceiling window.
There was a rumble, bursts of autumn thunder, and a bolt of lightning pierced the sky.
Half of the face is in the light, half of the face is in the dark, light and shadow are intertwined.
"Whoa whoa whoa~"
It started to drizzle all over Shanghai.
Raindrops were hitting the glass of the restaurant. Lu Fei was sitting in the box. When he received a call from Wang Chuanfu, the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
"Oh, are they coming too? Okay, then come."
After speaking, he told Wang Bi to ask the waiter to serve the food later.
After a while, Wang Chuanfu, Mayor Zhao and his secretary pushed the door in, and Lu Fei's true face came into view.
"Mr. Lu!"
Mayor Zhao was very excited.
"Sit down."
Lu Fei asked Wang Ben to go out to order the dishes, and then looked at him, "I didn't expect that all the investment promotion in the mall went to the Shanghai Stock Exchange."
"It's hard to say everything, Mr. Lu, it's hard to say everything."
Mayor Zhao did not hide it and poured out his bitterness.
Due to the spread of the financial crisis, the export scale of southern Henan's foreign trade has been declining year by year. Therefore, this year, the province has regarded attracting investment as a top priority, and has sent dozens of teams south and north to search for opportunities in places such as north, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen.
Project, discuss cooperation.
Even one-to-one follow-up and 24-hour personal service.
“Southern Henan has fully entered the ‘big investment era’.”
Lu Fei and Wang Chuanfu looked at each other.
"Mr. Lu is right."
Mayor Zhao glanced at his secretary, who immediately understood and poured the wine one by one, then picked up the wine glass and made a gesture of toasting.
"I'm not in a hurry to drink. I'm just curious. In addition to BYD, what other companies are the mall looking for this time?"
Lu Fei cast a questioning look.
“Looking for everything, but mostly tech companies!”
Mayor Zhao continued to complain. Southern Henan has land, people, and gray coal and cement, but the high-tech industry is lackluster. When it comes to attracting investment, it is too shameless to contact technology companies.
Yunan really wants to change this appearance!
"Did Foxconn find it?"
Wang Chuanfu asked abruptly.
Mayor Zhao was excited and found that the two people were looking at him meaningfully. Since he knew it, he simply admitted it.
"Mr. Wang's guess was correct, there is indeed Foxconn."
He smiled and said: "Every year, tens of thousands of people from southern Henan work at Foxconn, and of course, BYD also has a large proportion, so we thought, instead of letting people run away, we might as well build the factory in southern Henan, and we can build it in our own factory."
In the same province, there is no need to cross provinces anymore.”
While we were talking, the waiter came in with the dishes.
Putting the business aside, a few people chatted while eating, chatting about the World Expo, and interjecting a few words about attracting investment in southern Henan.
After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.
Mayor Zhao finally couldn't hold it any longer, "Do Mr. Lu, Mr. Wang, Logic and BYD really plan to build a factory in Tianzhu?"
"Well, I'm not sure yet."
Lu Fei smiled and said: "We will definitely move, but where to move, we currently have two directions, one is to move out, that is, Tianzhu, and the other is to move inward..."
"Mr. Lu, what do you think of Yunan?"
"Southern Henan is indeed good, but northern Shaanxi, Chengdu, and northern Hebei are also very good. Now there is a wave of industrial relocation in the central and western regions. Many places have started to attract investment."
"Yes, but their sincerity and conditions for attracting investment are definitely not as high as ours! We are completely willing to go all out this time. Mr. Lu and Mr. Wang, if it is logical that BYD wants to move north, there is no place more suitable than southern Henan! Please be sure
Come to southern Henan!"
"Oh, what conditions will we be given for settling in?"
Lu Fei narrowed his eyes into a thin line.
Mayor Zhao hurriedly said that in addition to land, taxation, and loans, they were also responsible for the most urgently needed labor force. They implemented a "top-down" recruitment model and decentralized tasks step by step. On average, each township needs to recruit 30 to 50 people.
Worker.
The most indispensable thing in southern Henan is people!
"Is this the same condition for Foxconn?"
Wang Chuanfu looked at it with a scrutinizing gaze.
Mayor Zhao patted his chest and promised that whatever conditions you want will be fine! As long as you are willing to come to southern Henan, I will promise you anything!
The conditions are definitely better than Foxconn!
"Southern Henan is worthy of consideration, but Tianzhu..."
Lu Fei touched his chin, looking troubled.
Mayor Zhao took a sip of wine and bravely said, "Mr. Lu, Mr. Wang, I have something I don't know whether to say or not."
"you say."
Wang Chuanfu poured him wine.
"Mr. Lu, you have investments all over the country."
Mayor Zhao counted all his treasures and shook them off one by one.
Anhui and northern Hubei have Mr. Lu to match up the BOE production line, and Anhui is the first 6th generation LED in the country.
Breaking the monopoly of Samsung, LG, Hitachi and others!
Fujian has Chenhong capacitive touch screen and AMOLED panel.
There are Qimonda and Changxin Storage in northern Shaanxi, the largest memory chip base in the country in northern Hubei, and Yangtze River Storage, which is the third largest in the world.
Northeast, in cooperation with Changchun Optical Machinery, has also invested in a number of optical companies such as Excellence Optics, which specializes in optical lenses such as photolithography machines, smart phones, and medical instruments. It is clear that it wants to create an "optical capital".
There are photovoltaics and silicon groups in the northwest. Even northern Hebei has e-commerce villages that are heavily supported by Feigou. There are North China Airlines and logistics integrated by Zhongtong, not to mention Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Jiangsu and Zhejiang!
"Fuxin, Feigou, Penguin, Zhongtong, Logic, Qilixiang, so many companies, so many industrial chains!"
“Why can’t you invest in southern Henan too?”
"Mr. Lu, please, please look at Henan!"
Mayor Zhao seemed to have been wronged by Po Tian, his eyes were slightly red.
Mr. Lu, why don’t you look at southern Henan?
We have missed all our investments in southern Henan. Are we weaker than them?
"Ahem."
Wang Chuanfu looked at Lu Fei awkwardly, but saw that he was still smiling.
"Mr. Lu, our boss drank too much. He drank too much. Please don't take it to heart." The frightened secretary quickly explained.
“Yunan really wants me to invest that much?”
Lu Fei handed over a tissue.
"Mr. Lu, just invest in us once. I guarantee it will be the first time, and I want to have the second time, the third time..."
Mayor Zhao showed his true feelings and was very emotional.
Looking forward to the stars, looking forward to the moon, looking forward to Master Lu for a long time!
After all, when Mr. Lu comes, the money will arrive!
"Mr. Wang, what do you think?"
Lu Fei looked sideways.
"Mr. Lu, I think that instead of establishing it in Tianzhu, southern Henan is more suitable. After all, the wealth will not flow to outsiders." Wang Chuanfu said, "Of course, I listen to you, and we can build it wherever you say."
Lu Fei and him looked at each other and said solemnly: "Okay, let's cancel the plan to move to Tianzhu. We will move north and make southern Henan our first choice. What do you think?"
Wang Chuanfu added, "This is not just a BYD foundry, nor a logical branch, but the entire foundry industry chain. Up and down, there will be hundreds of companies that can provide three to five million units."
employment position!"
Three and a half million jobs?!
Such a big pie knocked Mayor Zhao unconscious.
"Now, Yunan will be satisfied, right?"
Lu Fei was smiling.
"Satisfied! Satisfied! Mr. Lu, Mr. Wang, I salute you both!" Mayor Zhao drank three glasses of white wine in one breath.
"But the ugly words are ahead. We only regard southern Henan as our first choice. If we can't meet our conditions..."
Lu Fei shrugged.
"You say!"
Mayor Zhao winked at the secretary, who immediately took out paper and pen from his briefcase, not daring to slack off at all.
"The first thing is that we need an airport."
Wang Chuanfu bluntly said that the foundry must be close to the customs in the bonded area. A logical mobile phone is transported from the factory to the customs, where the procedures are completed, and then it can be directly loaded into the freight plane of ZTO Airlines or cross-border express parked at the mall airport.
Reach all parts of the world in the fastest possible time.
"With the current capacity of the mall airport, it is very difficult to do it."
Mayor Zhao said: "But don't worry, Mr. Lu, we will communicate with the province when we get back to see if we can expand the airport!"
"I like this answer very much!"
Lu Fei showed a satisfied smile, "And I won't just let Southern Henan bear the responsibility. If possible, Trisolaris Fund and Zhongtong Airlines can also participate in the project. Just like North China Airlines, it may not be impossible to build the mall into a transportation hub in Central China."
Aviation hub.”
Another delicious pie!
Mayor Zhao's mouth was dry and he swallowed his saliva.
I don’t know if Lu Fei felt that he owed Yunan too much, so he drew big cakes and asked people to come and feed Yunan some cakes!
"Lu, Mr. Lu, are these all for Henan?"
Mayor Zhao drank the wine in one gulp and suppressed his shock.
"It is for the provinces where BYD's foundry is located. Whoever wins BYD will get these." Lu Fei reminded, "But one thing is, since we have invested in the airport, we don't want other competitors to sit back and enjoy the benefits and share this dividend."
"What Mr. Lu means is that if you choose BYD, you can no longer accept other foundries. Is this what he means?"
Mayor Zhao's heart skipped a beat.
"That's right, we cannot let others pick the peaches of southern Henan that we have worked so hard for." Wang Chuanfu emphasized.
"This...this...in fact, Foxconn may not necessarily pick BYD's peaches, right? We can improve the conditions..."
Mayor Zhao really wants to have his cake and eat it too.
"No, do you really expect to rely on Foxconn to succeed?"
The corners of Lu Fei's mouth raised slightly.
"Doesn't Foxconn have experience in this area? Foxconn has contributed a lot to Pengcheng's mobile phone OEM industry chain!"
Mayor Zhao's face turned red.
This is all a trap, you can’t be harmed by Foxconn!
Lu Fei directly revealed the hidden pain of foundries.
The cost of an iPhone 4 is about a thousand yuan, and Foxconn can only earn a few dozen yuan per unit. It works hard but earns so little, precisely because it is at the low end of the industry chain.
Relying on Foxconn is unreliable!
Not to mention consuming a lot of human, financial, labor, land and other resources, it cannot promote the upgrading and transformation of local industries.
"Foxconn can't do it? Can BYD help southern Henan!"
Mayor Zhao was dubious, "Or is it logic?"
"Don't you think we don't have the strength?"
"Mr. Lu and Mr. Wang are indeed powerful, but I don't know what you will do. Why don't you tell me about it? It's not that I don't believe you, but I want to report this to the province?"
"What if it works?"
“If it’s really feasible, we don’t want Foxconn!”
"However, we have to wait until we meet the provincial leaders to say this."
"Okay, okay, no problem. The leaders of the province have long wanted to meet Mr. Lu and Mr. Wang, and I will make arrangements." Mayor Zhao agreed, "I will inform you personally when the time comes."
"cheers."
Lu Fei raised his glass with a smile.
"cheers!"
Mayor Zhao took a sip of white wine and felt warm in his heart.
When I think of BYD and Logic, the two giants are waiting for me, one is from South Henan. Do you think I am not lucky enough?
As for Foxconn, what grade?
It’s also worthy of comparison with logic and BYD! he tui!
