Ye Hua was stunned when he saw the title of this article. Then when he read the content of the article, he was immediately very unhappy with the news media that published this article. He was so unhappy that he wanted to buy it out of anger.
This title is so easy to mislead people, but I have to say that it is indeed very eye-catching and makes the audience want to read on.
This report came out yesterday and was reprinted. Today, it has quickly spread on the Internet, overwhelming the circle of friends, and once again arousing heated discussions.
Ye Hua was helpless and depressed. These media people were really going too far. They spent all day long at Coastline Company and never stopped for a while.
Article content:
[In recent years, with salaries of 10,000 to 20,000 yuan and house prices of 40,000 to 50,000 yuan in first-tier cities, many young people with dreams have fled from first-tier cities. But what is unexpected is that those who escape from first-tier cities are not just the struggling ones.
Young people, and even those companies with dreams, have begun to flee first-tier cities, including Huawei, which has been booming this year. And the superstar technology company that has made rapid progress in recent years, namely Coastline Group, has also chosen to "escape"
, and even more completely "escaped", directly "escaping" to the sea...]
Ye Hua closed the newspaper and pushed it aside, not reading the entire article.
Qiao Wei saw him looking at him with inquiring eyes and said: "The source of the matter should be related to two things that happened three days ago. The first thing was that we had just taken over the southern peninsula of Yong Town to build a residence for employees.
The manor-style town can provide more than 50,000 housing units for employees. The state has increased its publicity efforts and even put forward the slogan: Serve the coastline, do it now.”
Hearing this, Ye Hua couldn't help but smile and didn't say anything. However, Coastline Company has grown to the giant level it is today and will soon be stationed in the state. The local government is probably very happy. Once Coastline Company moves in, the local GDP will also be good.
, finance and taxation are all soaring like a rocket. Is it strange that we are not happy to blossom?
It’s not surprising to have such a slogan.
Qiao Wei continued: "Moreover, the local government's report also listed specific measures to serve Coastline Company: speeding up the renovation and update of Kecun Street in Tieyong Town... is crucial; the supporting facilities around Coastline are not in place.
The construction of supporting living facilities such as hospitals, schools, and shopping malls should be accelerated to ensure high quality and match the status of the coastline; guided by the reasonable demands of the coastline, relevant departments should work together to solve problems in a timely manner."
As she said that, Qiao Wei couldn't help but laugh: "To sum up, Coastline Company is crucial to the state's economic development. We must fight hard to keep this company and not give this company a second chance.
Missing migration.”
Not to mention anything else, Coastline Company acquired the Xiaowei Peninsula in one fell swoop, with a total area of 5.75 million square meters, equivalent to 800 football fields. The total cost of this 5.75 million square meters of land was only 1.1 billion.
, the average price is less than 200 yuan/square meter, which is similar to the rough houses in the village.
But in the Coastline headquarters, in the current commercial city, the floor price is only 60,000 to 70,000 yuan per square meter, and 200 yuan is not even enough to buy a cheap office desk.
Why is this land so cheap? Because this land is in a small town or village in the state.
Ye Hua asked: "What is the second thing?"
Qiao Wei: "Yesterday, it should be the day before yesterday. Since the company was split and reorganized, although the current headquarters construction has not been fully completed, some facilities are already operational. Didn't more than 700 people from the business capital move to the new state headquarters to work the day before yesterday? Even the route
Everything was clearly arranged, and this incident just happened to be exposed on the Internet, and then this article came out, and now the circle of friends is already abuzz."
Ye Hua knew that the company had established a spin-off and reorganization, and the people who moved to the new headquarters first were those whose work had been transferred to the two subsidiaries of "Dolphin Travel" and "Dolphin International Water". Since the two subsidiaries did not carry out actual business,
To travel light, it is natural to give priority to relocation. It is much easier to start building the organizational structure from scratch directly at the new headquarters.
Ye Hua glanced at the newspaper and said, "So, are you here just for this matter?"
Qiao Wei: "Of course not. This is the cause. A reporter from Beijing News Agency is here and hopes to conduct an exclusive interview with you. He has already arrived. Of course you can refuse."
Ye Hua was helpless: "Since everyone is here, let's just visit. Then you can invite people to the office and we can do it here."
Qiao Wei nodded and left, and after a few minutes, she came back with a man and a woman. The man was about thirty years old, carrying a camera, and the woman had a straight hairstyle that just reached her shoulders.
"Mr. Ye, it's an honor for you to accept our exclusive interview. I am Zhao Xin, a reporter from Jinghua News Agency." The female reporter came to the office and saw Ye Hua with a warm and polite smile. The latter also smiled and shook hands with him politely.
Hands on, her partner had already turned on the camera and started recording.
"Ms. Zhao, please sit down." Ye Hua asked her to sit down on the sofa by the window. He also sat down on the opposite side. Qiao Wei played a guest role as secretary and poured a glass of water for the two of them.
"Then can we start?" Ye Hua said bluntly after sitting down.
"No problem." The reporter from Beijing News nodded repeatedly and immediately handed Ye Hua a wireless microphone.
The CEO of Coastline Company has never accepted an exclusive interview with any media so far. She agreed to it this time. Naturally, she attached great importance to it. She could also see that this young president accepted the interview mostly because he was a member of Jinghua News Agency.
Although there is no background, this is real, and the person who accepts the interview is the biggest card, absolutely exclusive.
It was also concise and quick enough. Zhao Xin saw Ye Hua calmly waiting to be interviewed. She paused for a moment to organize her words and then said: "Shoreline Company has made rapid progress in recent years, and almost all major international hot events this year have
They all have more or less contact with you and the company you founded."
"But just yesterday, an article "Don't Let Coastline Get Away" quickly hit the circle of friends and spread all over the Internet. Behind the hot discussion was that the high housing prices in the commercial capital have forced away excellent companies like Coastline."
"Some people say that the coastline is gone, with ideals; some say that the coastline is gone, with disappointment; some people say that the coastline is gone, with a world-weary sadness... Every time the topic of large companies, especially high-tech companies, relocating to first-tier cities comes up,
It triggers heated discussions every time. Like Huawei in the past, and now you and Coastline. Many people can’t understand why it’s just a corporate relocation, so why can it attract so much discussion and even criticism?”
Hearing what she said, Ye Hua suddenly understood. No wonder Qiao Wei wanted to show him the newspaper. After thinking for a while, he picked up the wireless microphone in his hand and said calmly and confidently: "This is not difficult to understand. Indeed, usually,
It's okay to move a business or a large enterprise, but what if you view the coastline as a 'gold mine'? It's not that simple."
Zhao Xin nodded silently and looked at him curiously. Ye Hua continued:
"Take the Huawei you mentioned as an example. In 1998, Huawei became the largest communications equipment manufacturer in the country. It also used this strength to acquire 1.3 square kilometers of land in Bantian, Longgang, Pengcheng for the construction of its headquarters base."
"At that time, Bantian was still an inconspicuous town, located just outside Pengcheng Pass, with endless 'wastelands'. Huawei and Foxconn also came here in the same year, which undoubtedly brought huge business opportunities to the surrounding areas. At this time, the surrounding areas
All the villagers can’t sleep. So many rich people have been lost out of thin air. I can’t help but laugh in my dreams. I have to find a way to make money from them.”
"Okay, since they dare to come here to work, they must buy a house here. So the villagers stopped growing crops and began to 'plant houses.' The word "planting" must be in quotation marks."
"If you look back, you will find that within a few years, Huawei and Foxconn were surrounded by a 'handshake building.' But this symbiosis and co-growth has turned the Huawei area into a bipolar zone with clear distinctions.
, it gives you the feeling that 'when you enter, you are in Europe, when you go out, you are in Africa', which is a very intuitive feeling."
Zhao Xin asked: "Symbiosis and mutual growth, isn't this a very good development relationship?"
Hearing this, Ye Hua's half-smiling expression already gave his answer, and then said: "I remember that in 2009, the top leader of Longgang District inspected Huawei and said to the people below: Huawei makes money.
The first beneficiary must belong to our district. Huawei employees are rich, and their incomes are very few in Quanpeng City. Why don’t such a good company and highly knowledgeable employees serve them well?”
"So, we proposed to build a 'Huawei Technology City'. We must transform the surrounding environment, introduce powerful developers, build hospitals and other supporting facilities, and use high standards to build a city that serves Huawei so that Huawei employees can work
You can enjoy a good environment and life.”
"Huawei was so happy when I heard that it wanted to help us. So it immediately spent 20 billion to support the 11 billion invested by the local government to jointly build a new technology city. It was so thoughtful that it was even built next to the main road invested by the municipal government.
, Huawei spent tens of millions of its own money to buy rare trees and plant them on both sides and cultivate them carefully."
"However, what Huawei didn't expect was that it was all a trick. Two months later, Longgang organized a tender, began to study the planning around Huawei, and directly named it 'Huawei New City.'
"
"In an instant, all kinds of real estate projects were crowded into this place, and they were all commercial and residential developers. High-rise buildings were built. All kinds of commercial projects were labeled with Huawei and promoted vigorously."
"Oh, by the way, the now-defunct person in charge who proposed the establishment of a science and technology city also established a real estate company to participate in this large-scale development, and acquired 440,000 square meters of land."
"As a result, some of the properties have been sold, and the land parcels claimed for Huawei have not even been renovated. For a while, the people at Huawei were confused, and after much fussing, they found out that the land was originally used for use.
Huawei's concept is in the real estate business, and the malicious hype of Huawei's concept by real estate projects is also intolerable. The frustrated Mr. Ren rejected the planning map of the Science and Technology City, and only said: From now on, Huawei and your so-called city
, it has no relationship.”
After spreading his hands, Ye Hua continued: "After that, 'Huawei Technology City' was soon changed to 'Ban Xuegang Technology City'. Mr. Ren is an entrepreneur I respect very much. He has a dream. He hopes that his employees can live in
We build low-density bungalows in places like Lisbon in Portugal, Windermere in the UK, Klenov in the Czech Republic, etc. We also hope that employees’ children can enjoy good education and everyone can enjoy good medical care.”
"However, the Science and Technology City incident made Mr. Ren see the facts clearly early. His dream can only be called a dream in Pengcheng."
"Think about it, while you are working hard day and night to contribute to technology, at the same time you are making money and enjoying the gains in the property market. Is this fair? Huawei is lonely. It is no longer surrounded by poverty, but with the wolf-like eyes of real estate speculators.
The profit-seeking nature of the surrounding villagers and the lies promised by those in charge tied Huawei people tightly to the 13,000-square-kilometer island. Finally, Huawei lost its last bit of courage to persevere. Now it has gone
It’s Sishan Lake.”
Zhao Xin nodded, and then said: "So, you don't want Coastline Company to follow in Huawei's footsteps? You even did it more thoroughly and simply moved the new headquarters to a coastal island, eliminating the possibility of following in Huawei's footsteps from the root.
possible?"
Hearing this, Ye Hua shook his head and said in denial: "No, our company is supported by high profits. We are richer. Even if the house price doubles with the highest price in the world, I can still pay for my employees without any pressure. We
The enterprises have high profits, and the thing we are most in need of is money."
These words made the two reporters from Jinghua News Agency panic. Zhao Xin pursed his lips and nodded to see what he was holding back. Ye Hua couldn't refute his words. Coastline Company was the most short of money.
Last month, it signed mega contracts totaling US$78.5 billion with Dubai, Saudi Arabia and Israel.
Ye Hua said seriously: "We decided to leave Shangdu not because of the property market where we are just making money, but to give other small and medium-sized enterprises a better chance of survival and to give other struggling young people more and better opportunities. This is why we decided to leave Shangdu."
This is the biggest reason why we decided to leave Shangdu and move our headquarters to an island off the coast."
Is the move not for myself? But for other companies and for others to survive better? Zhao Xin was curious about what he said and had some doubts.
Suddenly, Ye Huahua, who was crossing his legs, explained: "Shoreline Company is an exception and unique. Let's take Huawei employees as an example. Even if Huawei employees have the highest wages in Pengcheng City, what can they do if they work overtime every day? Three years of
The increase in wages is completely unable to compete with the increase in housing prices. As long as housing prices increase, it means many more years of hard work. This is true even for employees who have been working for several years and Huawei employees, who are known for their high wages, not to mention those young people who have just graduated from college.
People, don’t they want to cry when they see this housing price? Is it fair to them?”
"The difficulty of employment is a topic that will not remain cold for a long time. Who is responsible for the difficulty in finding employment? My answer is, high housing prices! Then who is responsible for the high housing prices? Many factors, but multinational companies and business giants
They must bear a large part of the responsibility. Why do multinational companies and business giants move their entire factories to emerging market countries? For example, if you take American factories and move them to our country, the reason is very simple.
, he cannot compete in the United States. The high labor costs mean that his products cannot compete with others in the international market. This is an extreme."
"At the other extreme are high-tech companies, especially high-profit high-tech companies. If you gain the ability to dominate the market share, especially technology companies like our coastline, or technology companies like Huawei and Alibaba, you have high profits.
Profit, the income of engineers and employees of all high-tech companies is much higher than that of other people. High income means boosting high consumption. What consequences will that bring? It must be that the surrounding real estate prices are rising and real estate speculators are speculating on the houses.
It’s so hot that it heats up its soil, and high-profit high-tech companies are the source and their soil.”
"Well, real estate prices are rising. Other nearby companies do not have the high profits of high-tech companies, and employees do not have high incomes. For example, if you take low-end manufacturing, they can't stand it. What should we do? Either bankruptcy and liquidation, or industry
The driving source of out-migration is the high housing prices caused by the high profits of high-tech enterprises, which then squeeze out enterprises. Enterprises will disappear and die. Of course, the employment pressure of young people will be greater, adding insult to injury."
"Again, if you compare it with foreign countries, for example, the technology giants and business giants in the United States are not concentrated in densely populated big cities such as New York and Washington. The headquarters of Microsoft, IBM, Intel, etc. will all be in some small towns.
I think this is very scientific and reasonable.”
"Our Coastline Company is large and has high profits, but it doesn't matter if you rely on your large size and high profits. This is a manifestation of social irresponsibility. We are a company with dreams and a company with a sense of social responsibility.
, the bigger your company gets, the less you must lose your social conscience, otherwise the bigger you get, the greater the harm it will cause to society, so our company decided that we must also build our headquarters on the island."
"Because our company, no matter which town on the land it is located in, even if it is a small town, it will definitely push up the local housing and land prices, which will further definitely defeat the local enterprises or squeeze them out, leaving behind a group of
Unemployed people, but their skills do not meet our requirements and we cannot provide them with jobs. Isn’t this a manifestation of social irresponsibility?”
"In general, the relocation of manufacturing industry is a question worth pondering. If a person comes to a city and works hard for many years and still has no sense of belonging, then what reason does he have to continue to struggle in this city? If a company
Settling in a city, working hard day and night and making no profit, but watching the property market reap the benefits and lying down counting money, what reason does it have to persist here?"
"When a city or a region does not have the support of the real economy, then no matter how brilliant it is, it will eventually become a microcosm of history. One day, everyone will regret their actions in the pursuit of profit. We
Coastline Company doesn’t want to be its promoter, and we may not be able to change anything, but we can at least hide. To say that I was cowardly and evasive, let’s just say that, after all, Coastline is just a company, and I am also an entrepreneur.”
