Chapter 190 The father of Zhongguancun buried by history
This time Liu Lang is no longer just looking for rentable houses, but looking for companies that are still in their infancy with a "nostalgic" look. Any small factory is likely to be a large company with an output value of over 100 million in the future. From the inside
Everyone who walks out is likely to be worth tens of millions more than ten years later
Rich men and even billionaires, but he also knows that most of these companies will perish under the competition of the market, and only a few will stay. However, this place is full of vitality. If one company goes bankrupt, another company will stand up. China
Entrepreneurs are always full of fighting spirit.
"Liu Lang, you quit your job at a young age. What do you want to do if you don't look for a house?"
Liu Lang's endless walking around aroused Mu Xiaohu's "dissatisfaction".
"Oh! Okay, okay, let's look for... Hey, I think that building is pretty good!"
Suddenly Liu Lang saw a two-story building not far away, and there was a plaque downstairs. It was obvious that this was also a company.
There are many buildings on both sides of the street, but most of them are residential buildings. Those companies do not rent residential buildings. Firstly, it is inconvenient to get in and out. Secondly, they are not available. Private companies are too small, with only five or six people at most.
, the collective enterprises are all small factories, and the inside is messy and the two of them dislike it. Now finally a two-story building has appeared, and it looks like it has been painted. Even renting the first floor is not bad.
"Hurry up and have a look!"
Mu Xiaohu also fell in love with this small building, and the two of them quickly walked over.
"No. 6 Huayuan Road...Capital New Technology Development Research Institute! What a big name, he really dares to name it!"
Mu Xiaohu expressed his contempt for this name.
"Go in and take a look!"
The two people opened the door and walked in.
There were five or six people inside who were chatting and drinking tea. When someone came in, they stood up quickly.
"What's the matter with you?"
"Is this your company?"
Mu Xiaohu asked.
"yes?"
"Is it the same as the one above?"
"Yes?"
"That's right. We've rented the upper floor. How much does it cost?"
Mu Xiaohu talked about money directly without any nonsense.
Several people were stunned when Mu Xiaohu asked, "Who is this person?"
"Little brother, we are a company, not renting a house. You also want to open a company. There are plenty of houses out there!"
The other party said very politely.
"This is a decent building for you. You guys are all idle anyway, so it's okay to take out one. Tell me, how much does it cost per month? I'm not short of money."
In Mu Xiaohu's eyes, the people who run the company are also poor people. He thinks that he alone has enough money to buy the company on the whole street, so he doesn't take them seriously at all.
"What...what does this mean!"
Everyone in the room was stunned.
When Mu Xiaohu was talking to these people, Liu Lang didn't say anything and walked around the house alone. He and Mu Xiaohu entered the house together. Others thought the child was the young man's son, so no one paid attention.
arrive.
Liu Lang saw that the bookcase next to him was filled with books, mostly professional books on compressors and electrical aspects.
It seems that these people are traveling with me! And they are very knowledgeable.
Liu Lang majored in mechanical engineering, focusing on the design and manufacturing of machinery, covering a wide range of topics. These books are very specific as they focus on a certain type of machinery.
"Well, this is...!"
Liu Lang suddenly saw the business license hanging on the wall. It was the same as Mu Xiaohu's, it was an individual business owner, and there was a name written behind the column of the person in charge.
"Is your person in charge Chen Chunsheng?"
Liu Lang suddenly asked.
Chen Chunsheng! What a “long-lasting” name!
If Liu Lang hadn't seen this business license, even if he had a powerful and inhuman memory, he probably wouldn't have been able to find this name in the depths of his memory. Even if there were many books about Zhongguancun in his previous life, in which this name was mentioned.
There are very few mentions, and more names are Yang Zhichuan and several other entrepreneurs.
But in Liu Lang's view, Chen Chunsheng's contribution to Zhongguancun is definitely no less than anyone else, and no one can even compare to him, because he can be called the father of Zhongguancun, a man who was gradually overshadowed by the glory of successful entrepreneurs.
The forgotten true father of Zhongguancun.
Chen Chunsheng is a national-level scientist, and his academic level is not comparable to that of a "dabbler" like Yang Zhichuan. He was sent to the United States for inspection just after the reform and opening up. The place where he had the most profound impact was Silicon Valley in the United States.
In his eyes, it was full of technology and the source of power for world technology.
After returning to China, he was determined to create China's Silicon Valley, and the place he chose was Zhongguancun.
Even though Chen Chunsheng was a national first-class professor, and even though his compressor research was at the most advanced level in the country, he still quit his job without hesitation and led several people who had the same dreams as him to establish a company.
A truly private high-tech company.
In this era, there are very few people who can be as thorough as him, and more people like Yang Zhichuan do something for themselves under the protection of the research institute.
Both private and state-owned enterprises are companies, but the gap between them is huge.
In this era, the common rule for the establishment of private high-tech companies is: scientific and technological personnel go out of research institutes, follow the laws of technological transformation and market economy, do not require state appropriations, do not occupy the state establishment, raise funds by themselves, are responsible for their own profits and losses, and operate independently.
Make decisions independently in accordance with the law.
It is said to be a rule, but in fact it is a policy formulated by the state for them, which contains a lot of resentment. In one sentence: just play by yourself, the state will not care, you must fend for yourself, and you deserve to die.
Chen Chunsheng established the first technology company in Zhongguancun amidst the doubts, insults and ridicule of others. For this reason, even his research institute filed a lawsuit with him, but he still moved forward.
Following his footsteps, sporadic small technology companies gradually appeared in the nearby area, and the country's "Silicon Valley" began to be nurtured. In terms of succession, companies such as Lenovo and Sitong are his juniors.
Chen Chunsheng is a scientist with a strong scientific research level, but he gave up a stable job for his own ideals. He wanted to build a scientific and technological kingdom with his own technology. However, the ideals were great, but the reality was cruel. In the recent reform and opening up,
In today's society, high-tech technologies only exist in national research institutes and laboratories, and very few can be used in the market.
Chen Chunsheng studied compressor technology, which is very versatile and can be used in air conditioners, refrigerators, mines, etc., especially air conditioners and refrigerators, which rely on compressors for cooling and heating.
But in the early 1980s, there were no factories on the market that could manufacture air-conditioning refrigerators. The large-scale launch of these two appliances had to wait until the late 1980s, when the country introduced a number of foreign production lines. Therefore, Chen Chunsheng was ahead of his time.
, and sadly, his technology was nowhere to be found, and his company was in trouble from the day it opened.
After struggling for a year or two, he finally gave up his major and started a "diversified business", but he had nothing else but technology.
He didn't understand business and couldn't see the market prospects. While other companies were developing rapidly, his company was in decline. It was already struggling in the late 1980s. His interpersonal relationships were poor and he had no one to help him, which made his situation worse.
In the early 1990s, Lenovo Group had gradually emerged and Sitong Company was also prosperous. However, Chen Chunsheng and his company could no longer sustain themselves and could only end up bankrupt. And he himself was gradually forgotten and no one would remember him.
The title of the father of China's "Silicon Valley" is placed on the head of a loser.
