May 31, tonight is the closing ceremony of the World Expo.
At the World Expo Cultural Center, Lu Fei came to the area with the same arrangement as the opening ceremony, and greeted everyone with nods.
Out of the corner of my eye, I suddenly saw Guo Taiming, whose face turned dark.
"Mr. Guo, hello."
Lu Fei curled up his lips and stepped forward.
Guo Tai's famous person was smiling, but when he thought of Henan being snatched away by BYD, he felt a burst of anger in his heart, "Mr. Lu, there is something I don't understand. Can Mr. Lu help me clarify it?"
"Is there anything that can still trouble Mr. Guo?"
Lu Fei acted like he was all ears.
"There have been rumors that BYD and Logic will move to Tianzhu to build factories? Why did they suddenly change to southern Henan?"
Guo Taiming gritted his teeth.
"Regarding this issue, Mr. Guo asked the wrong person. You have to ask Mr. Wang. My suggestion was to move to Tianzhu, but he finally decided to move BYD north to southern Henan. There was no way. He made the decision for BYD. I could only
Just listen to him." Lu Fei shrugged helplessly.
Guo Taiming couldn't help but feel like he was being attracted by NTR, the boss next door. It was obviously Foxconn who took a fancy to Southern Henan! It was obviously mine!
"What? Such a coincidence?"
"It's such a coincidence."
"That's really weird. Henan Henan contacted you first, but why did you choose BYD instead of Foxconn in the end?"
"This is also what I want to ask Mr. Lu."
Guo Taiming had a sullen face, local companies are so rude! Come and rob! Come and attack! Don’t talk about martial arts! Sai Linmu!
"Ask me? I think it's better to ask the leaders of southern Henan than to ask me. It's not something we businessmen can control in terms of attracting investment. The reason why we chose BYD must be because BYD is superior and more suitable than Foxconn." Lu Fei said.
Wave your hands.
Guo Taiming was very unconvinced and said: "I think BYD is not as good as Foxconn in anything, except for Mr. Lu."
Although you are praising me, I still want to hammer you!
Lu Fei said with a smile: "I have been watching BYD in the past few years. I know best whether it is good or not. I should look for my own reasons. Are Foxconn's conditions too high? Have workers' wages been increased? Especially public opinion. Recently,
Has it gotten better?"
"..."
Guo Taiming felt like a knife was piercing his heart.
"Mr. Guo must learn a lesson from the tragedy that happened at Foxconn." Lu Fei said with a heartbroken look on his face, "Actually, if we were in Tianzhu, this kind of thing would probably not be a big deal. Ah, I made a mistake."
"Why did Mr. Lu say this?"
"I wonder if Mr. Guo has ever heard the saying, 'English will never surrender until all the blood of Tianzhu people is shed'?"
"heard about it."
"I met with the Minister of Commerce of Tianzhu before. Not only did he say that Tianzhu has abundant labor and low costs, he also said that if we were in Tianzhu, it would be impossible for Foxconn to be in this situation."
Lu Fei looked at him meaningfully.
"Oh, really?"
Guo Taiming narrowed his eyes. Sure enough, capitalists have dirty hearts!
Lu Fei said: "Let's just listen to what he said. In fact, I hope that Foxconn will settle in southern Henan so that BYD can go to Tianzhu. The conditions promised to me by the Minister of Commerce of Tianzhu are even better than those in southern Henan."
many!"
"Thank you, Mr. Lu, for the reminder. Tianzhu, I will consider it."
Guo Taiming was extremely vigilant.
Lu Fei shook hands with him, leaving a mysterious figure on his back.
"Conspiracy, there must be a conspiracy."
Guo Taiming fell into a long thought. Could it be that the more he is not allowed to do something, the more he is encouraged to do it?
Just when he couldn't figure it out, the closing ceremony officially began.
Roller skating teenagers holding International Exhibition Bureau flags and World Expo flags poured into the center of the venue from both sides of the venue. Amidst the music, hundreds of teenagers and children held flowers and garlands, and hundreds of girls held flags of participating countries and international organizations.
wave.
The show runs until 8:30 sharp.
"I declare that the 2010 Shanghai World Expo is closed!" The old man announced the closure gracefully.
The whole audience burst into waves of applause.
Immediately afterwards, Liu Dehua, Zeng Li, Jay Chou, Jing Tian and other artists took the stage to sing, pushing the atmosphere to a climax.
Lu Fei took the binoculars and looked for a while, then pointed the lens in the direction of Guo Taiming. No one was there, so he left early.
Urgent, urgent, everyone is gone.
At this moment, a figure appeared behind Lu Fei. He whispered something, his face changed drastically, and he immediately followed him to the parking lot, where a Hongqi car was parked.
The red flag on the front and rear of the car fluttered in the wind.
After a while, the old man who had just announced the closing ceremony appeared in his sight. He looked at him with kind eyes and a look on his nephew.
"Xiaolu!"
"Eh."
Lu Fei was startled and held him tightly with both hands.
After a brief exchange of greetings, the old man praised: "The information you provided on the debts of Greece and Dubai, as well as the forecasts for the Middle East and the Eurozone, are of great reference value. We gained a lot from the World Expo, as well as the Standard Bank of South Africa."
Bian, fortunately you reminded me in time and solved the unnecessary misunderstanding."
I'm just a humble social instrument!
Mainly to hold the fruits of your thoughtfulness…
Lu Fei didn't dare to float like a cloud like Lu Yun.
The old man then asked about the 65nm photolithography machine, the 32nm process, and the concept of the entire Zhangjiang domestic semiconductor base.
“The credit goes to everyone!”
"It is their sweat, perseverance, and belief that led to the creation of the fourth-generation domestic lithography machine. AMEC's 65nm is just the beginning, just a small step in the lithography machine. This is not the end, not even the beginning of the end, just the beginning."
At the end of the year, there will be immersion DUV, immersion EUv, and even photolithography city in the future!"
Lu Fei answered 1510 times, occasionally adding some personal details.
We need money, people, land, and the Science and Technology Innovation Board.
"That mouth of yours just makes you feel better."
The old man nodded with satisfaction.
"Not only in terms of hardware, but also in terms of software, we have to catch up." Lu Fei smiled, "Logic just acquired the world's first-class chip company, MIPS, which is the company that licenses the architecture to Loongson. After discussion by Logic's board of directors,
It was unanimously decided to donate MIPS to the ministry and the Chinese Academy of Sciences."
"Oh, donate?"
"Yes, donate! Moreover, Logic, Huawei, and Loongson took the lead in establishing the MIPS Foundation and allocated 300 million. I personally allocated another 200 million to universities, research institutes, and peers across the country as a reward for improving the MIPS ecosystem.
"
"Okay, okay! Okay!!"
The old man patted him on the shoulder and couldn't help but sigh: "I understand your intentions, including BYD's settlement in southern Henan."
"You know?" Lu Fei was startled.
"This matter has been spread all over the World Expo, how could I not know?" The old man said with satisfaction, "Very good, we did not choose Tianzhu, but southern Henan. The comrades in southern Henan said that this matter has happened to you."
We have great power, and we also plan to leave new energy vehicles to southern Henan to help with subsequent industrial upgrading and transformation."
"Hey, this is what I should do. I can't give it to Foxconn. I can't just watch Southern Henan being harmed by Foxconn." Lu Fei secretly gave Guo Tai famous eye drops.
"Emm, this matter will be dealt with."
The old man warned Logic and BYD not to let this happen.
"Yes, leader!"
Lu Fei vowed, snickering in his heart.
It is impossible for Foxconn not to leave Tianzhu now.
After chatting with the old man about the current situation and needs, the two separated. Lu Fei took a car to Shimao Sheshan Manor.
The villa is next to the lake and faces the neighboring island. It is a true island villa, connected to each other by bridges.
The woods are quiet, the water is beautiful, and the lights are like daylight.
Zeng Li walked out of the bedroom, and suddenly a pair of big hands wrapped around her waist, and then she fell into the man's arms.
"Hey, senior sister."
"Don't move around yet, Xiaoyu, Xia Xia just fell asleep."
"Shh."
Lu Fei glanced at the bedroom with a leaky door, made a silent gesture, and then took Zeng Li's hand and entered the master bedroom.
As soon as the door is closed, the headlights are turned on.
"Are you leaving Shanghai soon?"
Zeng Li raised her neck and squinted her eyes.
"I'm going to Yanjing to fly to 619. I have to be there." Lu Fei also planned to take a look at the building under construction. It's on the market and it's time to move out of the Hailong Building for rent.
"Didn't you say that you would hand over the company to Liu Haodong?"
Zeng Li rested her chin on his shoulder.
"You still have to show up on big occasions like June 19th, Double Eleven, and the company's annual meeting." Lu Fei said, "Practice makes perfect. And this year is different. There are more than 2,000 group buying and e-commerce websites across the country. There will definitely be bloodshed by then."
The flow is like a river. Although Meituan is No. 1 in group buying and Feigou is No. 1 in e-commerce, we cannot take it lightly, even though we have prepared a trump card."
"What, what's the trump card?"
"Home appliances, 3C products, old for new."
"Hoho, nationwide?"
"That's not true. This event is limited to urban residents." Lu Fei said playfully, "During the subprime mortgage crisis, rural people had already enjoyed policy dividends from home appliances to cars going to the countryside. This year, we should also give them to the cities.
Some warmth."
"Would it be a big loss if I replace the old one with the new one?"
"No, how could it be possible? They all have subsidies. Jingdong, Meituan, Logic, and Shenzhou are all 'old for new' bid winners."
Lu Fei paused and took out his cell phone to give an example.
The mobile phones recycled at low prices are classified according to their newness and age. The shells and functional mobile phones can be refurbished and the system can be simply replaced and sold for more than a hundred yuan. After all, this is the best in Huaqiangbei.
like.
As for refurbished elderly phones and copycat phones, they have little domestic market, but they are hot-sellers abroad, especially in Africa, Southeast Asia and Eastern Europe, as long as they can make calls and send text messages.
What's more, the huge traffic brought by "trade-in".
Not only did you not lose money, but you also made a small profit!
"After busying with 619, are you free?"
Zeng Li held his face with both hands.
"Is it the premiere of Source Code?"
Lu Fei's lips curled up.
"You remember! Did Yuanyuan tell you?"
Zeng Li's eyes were shining.
"No."
Lu Fei poked his forehead, "This is a project that I took the lead in creating. How could I not remember it, and how could I not participate? Besides, senior sister, you can star in it!"
"You have a good memory."
"Isn't it time to help me remove my armor? Remove my armor!"
"Ta da, da da..."
The mobile phone on the bedside table kept ringing and vibrating violently. Every time it rang, it felt like the phone was about to fall apart.
"Electricity, telephone..."
Zeng Li twisted around and cried.
"It's too late today, let's talk tomorrow."
Lu Fei raised his head and wiped his mouth.
"No, what if it's really important..."
Zeng Li fiddled with his hair and struggled to reach out to open the phone on the bedside table. The number came from Wang Chuanfu.
Once the contract is signed, Foxconn is completely out of business!
"BYD, ZTO and Logic enter Henan!"
"Recently, Southern Henan and Logic, BYD, and Zhongtong jointly initialed a "Strategic Cooperation Framework Agreement." The two parties agreed to focus on the electronic information industry, optoelectronics industry, new energy industry, logistics industry, human resources training, and sales network construction.
and expand cooperation, exchanges and investment scale in other fields.”
“Why is Foxconn so scary?”
"Relevant departments have formed a joint investigation team and are preparing to enter Foxconn."
"Apple issued another statement on the Foxconn crisis. CEO Cook said that it will strictly require suppliers and partners to meet the 'highest standards in the industry' and will regularly inspect working conditions to ensure that everyone in the supply chain is protected and respected.
, so far, Apple’s market value has evaporated by more than 4%.”
After seeing the next day's newspaper, Guo Taiming angrily called the senior executives to the office, covered them in the face, and cursed them.
"I asked you to suppress public opinion. Is this how you suppress it? Did you have your brains operated on and moved to your buttocks?"
"Incompetent! Waste!"
“Rice rice with dog stuffing!”
"I haven't done enough for you to clean up the mess that you mismanaged. In the past few days, I broke my leg because of this matter. I didn't sleep at night. I vomited a dozen times just drinking. What the hell am I going to do?"
I won't get rid of you big melons by relying on monsters!"
"..."
The vice president and others lowered their heads and did not dare to speak.
"Is there anyone alive? Tell me something. Otherwise, pack up and get out of here immediately!" Guo Taiming slapped his hand on the table.
The vice president explained helplessly that it wasn't that he didn't want to suppress it, but that he couldn't suppress it at all. "Mr. Guo, the top priority is to deal with Apple's investigation team and the rectifications required by Pengcheng."
"How is the rectification going now?"
Guo Taiming suppressed his anger.
"Everything has been changed, everything has been changed."
"But if things continue like this, the production capacity will definitely not be able to keep up with Apple's requirements. But if we want to keep up with Apple's production, the current workload cannot be met. No matter what, our losses will be huge!"
"The problem is not only losses, but also Apple. Will Apple be angry with Foxconn because of this? Will Apple hand over Foxconn's orders to Wistron and Helian? Or even..."
Everyone was talking and chattering.
"OK OK!"
Guo Taiming was upset when he heard this and shouted: "Let's maintain it like this for now, at least until the investigation is over, especially after the Apple investigation team confirms that there is no problem!"
At this moment, the landline phone rang.
When I answered the phone, it was Cook.
Guo Taiming's face suddenly changed, and his previous arrogance suddenly disappeared. Facing Cook's accusation, he was like a daughter-in-law meeting her mother-in-law. She was always annoyed, but she didn't dare to let out a fart.
The vice president and others saw it and were used to it.
My boss is a model of kneeling.
"Guo, Steve Jobs and I are very angry, and the board of directors is also very angry. This matter must be dealt with immediately! Immediately!"
"Tim, I'm already dealing with it now."
"Don't blame me for ignoring the cooperation and friendship for so many years and not handling it well. Apple will not rule out considering transferring Foxconn's orders to safer Wistron and Helian, especially Wistron."
"Wistron? Tim, are you kidding? With Wistron's strength, can it take it? Don't overload it."
"I have negotiated with Wistron. Wistron is willing to move the factory to Tianzhu according to our requirements, and then slowly transfer all China's OEM business to Tianzhu."
"Do you also want Foxconn to move?"
"Guo, it all depends on you. We are optimistic about both the Chinese market and the Tianzhu market. Apple will give due rewards to the warriors who dare to eat crabs first. As for those who fall behind..."
Guo Taiming heard the underlying sound clearly.
There is no doubt that he was kicked out of Apple's supply chain system.
Having lost its current thigh and unable to hold onto Mr. Lu’s thigh, Foxconn’s outcome may be either death or disability.
"I will think about it, Tim, and I will give you an accurate answer when I attend the Apple conference."
Guo Taiming humbly assured Cook with his front foot, and then stood up and arrogantly when facing his subordinates.
I can't bully foreigners, so I can't bully you?
"Mr. Guo?"
The vice president saw him waving and walked forward.
"I asked you to investigate. How was the investigation?"
Guo Taiming gritted his teeth and held his shoulders.
"I have sent people to go deep. The information I have so far is indeed as Lu Fei said. Tianzhu has a nominal population of several hundred million, but because of the system, it may be a bit ugly to say it. Except for Brahmins and Kshatriyas, everyone else is
Not considered a human being."
The vice president lowered his voice and said: "Maybe even livestock... In Tianzhu, we really don't have to worry about things like today."
"real!?"
Guo Taiming paced back and forth excitedly for a while.
I have already made a decision in my heart. Since southern Henan has been taken over by BYD, and other provinces have stopped attracting investment from Foxconn due to public opinion, what the heck, if I don't want to stay here, I will have my own place to stay.
