Time flies, two weeks passed in the blink of an eye, and Lin Zuhui officially started his trip to the mainland.
It is of great significance that he was invited by the capital again; because after the "deepening reform" incident, he was the first person from Hong Kong to come to Beijing. This can be seen that Lin Zuhui's influence in the mainland is greater than that of Li Chaoren. This kind of
The situation was already like this as early as 1990.
However, at that time, Lin Zuhui was more valued because he controlled the mouth of Xiangjiang. Now, Lin Zuhui has surpassed Li Chaoren in terms of financial resources and public opinion influence. It can be truly said that he "deserved the title"
'.
Of course, there is no need to worry about being targeted by London in this case. Lam Cho-fai is not Mr. Fok, he is just a businessman, and he can get along with both sides. This is true for everyone including Li Chaoren, Zheng Yutong, Li Shauji and others.
But in fact, everyone’s donations in the mainland are much higher than overseas. It can even be said that they have reached more than 70%.
This makes people speechless. After all, we are all Chinese, so there are some who are not close to the motherland.
Of course, there are also some people who are wary, such as Zhang Yuliang and the descendants of Ho Tung, all for historical reasons.
There are still many people who are wary, but have not really fled Hong Kong. They just have a wait-and-see attitude. Once the motherland shows its favor, they will naturally come back to invest.
Monday, March 2nd.
Pengcheng.
Lin Zuhui first came to Xiaomi Technology Park. This technology park covers an area of 300 acres and is divided into three phases. The first phase of the project was completed in October last year. The first phase of the project includes large factories, administrative complex buildings, logistics buildings, etc.
The building covers an area of 100 acres and can accommodate tens of thousands of workers and employees.
Nearly 500 million has been invested in the entire Xiaomi Technology Park (including land), and one-third of the second phase of the project has been completed.
In fact, Xiaomi Technology’s current products are only: pagers and semiconductors (Singapore), which is a serious loss-making enterprise.
"boss!"
Zou Kaixuan led a group of senior executives to welcome Lin Zuhui under the administrative complex. Xiaomi Technology did not sell many products, but its research and development capabilities and management team had already been established, and they were ready to attack at any time.
Even sales channels can be opened quickly by relying on its subsidiary company "Little Overlord".
Lin Zuhui nodded and said: "Hello everyone!" Then he shook hands with everyone.
Although he is the boss, he doesn't care much about Xiaomi Technology. Mainly, he has nothing to manage and only a few products.
After a while of pleasantries, Lin Zuhui couldn't wait to say: "Arrange for me to inspect the VCD player R&D room. Are the products sure to be ready for the market?"
In October last year, Zou Kaixuan reported that the VCD player had been successfully developed. Subsequently, Lin Zuhui asked the company to apply for patents in the mainland, upgrade product technology, and set up a DVD R&D project team.
In short, it cannot be listed yet, the time has not yet come!
"Boss, please!" Jiang Tao, the person in charge of the VCD project, led Lin Zuhui towards the building.
This building is expensive to build and has 32 floors. It can be said that it was enough for Xiaomi Technology’s office in the 1990s.
Take the elevator to the 12th floor, and then Lin Zuhui comes to the modern research and development room.
He couldn't help but sigh that Xiaomi Technology's starting point is really high. Huawei's Mr. Ren still rents two floors, and Huawei's R&D personnel are still building a floor below the R&D room!
Xiaomi Technology has almost no profitable products, but it enjoys one of the best office buildings in Pengcheng.
"Boss, this is a VCD player, let me demonstrate it to you!" Jiang Tao said confidently.
Jiang Tao is from the Mainland and received a master's degree in radio from Huaqing University in the 1980s. He is considered a high-level talent at Xiaomi Technology. The reason why he is confident is because when he applied for a patent for a VCD player, the Ministry of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering and the Ministry of Radio and Television could not bear to do so.
I am amazed that this is 'the destiny of computer multimedia in the field of home appliances'.
As the disc was inserted, a scene familiar to Lin Zuhui began to appear on the TV. It was a DreamWorks movie.
The picture quality is definitely not as good as DVD, but it is definitely enough for the mainland.
After visiting for a while, Lin Zuhui asked:
"Have a few questions!"
"First, this VCD player cannot do without the support of the software market. What methods do you have?"
"Second, the VCD standard and the MPEG-1 (video decoding chip) standard have not yet been determined. Can our Xiaomi Technology play a role in this?"
"Third, VCD is a new thing. How long will it take for mainland consumers to accept it?"
"Fourth, during this period, if Japan's Sony, Panasonic, and JAV get prototypes, they should be able to produce them in half a year. If we promote it to mainland consumers and let them accept VCD, but in the face of foreign manufacturers
If you are coming fiercely, will you make wedding clothes for them?"
"Fifth, as the mainland deepens reform, a large number of copycat factories will appear. When they enter this field, how can we ensure our advantages?"
Lin Zuhui's series of questions immediately made everyone look embarrassed. They only knew that they had developed a "great product" and did not consider such a long-term consideration at all.
And Lin Zuhui’s problem is exactly the same problem that Wan Yan encountered in his previous life!
Zou Kaixuan stood up and said: "The boss's thoughtfulness makes us ashamed. In response to the boss's five issues, we immediately started research and formulated countermeasures."
Lin Zuhui nodded and said: "I invest in this company because I hope to launch good products and the profits earned will be reinvested in China's technology industry. So, let's work together!"
Suddenly, everyone applauded!
This group of management team and technical personnel only accounts for a quarter of the total in Hong Kong, and the mainland accounts for the majority! As for Lin Zuhui, they actually know that he is a rich man in Hong Kong, the richest Chinese, and the total amount of donations to the mainland is as high as 77
800 million. In fact, they don’t know exactly how powerful it is.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! But today, Lin Zuhui’s five questions have made everyone think deeply, because these problems are real, but they don’t think about it so much!
Next, Lin Zuhui, led by Zou Kaixuan, visited the wireless phone research and development room.
Xiaomi Technology has also developed products. Mobile phone technology in this era is not difficult, but making good products is very difficult. In the previous life in the 1990s, there were dozens of mobile phone manufacturers in the mainland, but none of them could compete. Lin Zuhui knows
There are pandas, waveguides, etc.!
Lin Zuhui doesn’t expect that Xiaomi Technology’s mobile phones will suddenly emerge and become the number one domestically produced phone; he just wants to lay the foundation for developing into smartphones in the future.
Returning to his office, Zou Kaixuan followed him in.
In fact, Lin Zuhui arrived in Pengcheng yesterday afternoon and spent the night with Zou Kaixuan and his son.
"Have you written down the five questions just now?"
"Well, I wrote it down!"
Lin Zuhui nodded. There was no need to question Zou Kaixuan's ability. He did not treat Zou Kaixuan as a 'woman', but as a strong woman. Of course, he trained this strong woman.
"Okay, let me remind you a few more words. Regarding the software market, we don't need to invest too much, because the mainland does not have much awareness of copyright, and pirated VCDs will appear sooner or later. We now sell VCD discs for 60~
It only takes 80 yuan to make a profit, but after the pirated version comes out, it will soon only cost 20 yuan, or even lower. Therefore, we only invest in software appropriately, and then we can secretly promote the birth of pirated discs."
Zou Kaixuan's eyes lit up. He felt that Lin Zuhui's analysis was very reasonable. Originally, she wanted to purchase a large number of feature film copyrights and then make plans in the software. Now that she thought about it, the investment was too big, and she might as well secretly support the emergence of an industry chain for pirated discs.
"I remember!"
Lin Zuhui just gave her time to understand, so he went on to say: "How to make mainland consumers accept it? In the early stage, we will do a lot of publicity in the mainland paper media, and we can go on tour, but we don't sell prototypes, we don't sell products, we don't give
The Japanese bought it back for research. In about three to five months, we could start mass production. We immediately advertised on CCTV and invited Cheng Long to be the spokesperson. I had already thought of the advertising slogan, so it was called 'Xiaomi vcd, okay'
Kung Fu'. At that time, we were already able to mass-produce, and we suddenly made great efforts in advertising, which could lay a solid head start in one fell swoop!"
Zou Kaixuan had already picked up a pen and recorded it.
He continued: "In fact, it is the same as making the Xiaobawang game console. If the quality, after-sales, marketing, etc. are good, plus we are the first to eat crabs, we can defeat all latecomers. We also have patents, and
We are one of the two manufacturers in the world with the production technology of 'video decoding chips'. It can be said that whether it is a Japanese or Korean manufacturer or a mainland copycat manufacturer, we have great advantages."
"We must 'strategically despise the enemy and tactically attach importance to the enemy'. We can even sign a large number of 'movement' supply contracts with Philips of the Netherlands, such as 3 million units in three years. In this way, we will have a monopoly on VCD players.
The two most important parts are the mpeg-1 decoding chip and the movement."
Zou Kaixuan became more and more shocked as he listened, and couldn't help but ask: "Is 3 million movements in three years too much?"
A VCD player sells for about 5,000 yuan, and 3 million units is equivalent to an output value of 15 billion, which is really unimaginable.
But Lin Zuhui didn't think so. He knew the strong market for VCD players in the Mainland. In his previous life, in 1996, the sales volume was about five to six million units a year, but in 1994, the sales volume of VCD players was only 20,000 units!
Lin Zuhui said confidently: "Assuming that our promotion period is half a year to one year, then I believe that in 1995, the country may need 5 million units. Therefore, it is very feasible for us to sign a contract for 3 million movements. Not only will other manufacturers not have
With the supply channels, I can cut down to the cheapest price. Besides, I am not short of money and can afford to gamble!"
Back then, Nintendo used the same formula when developing the Famicom. It placed a large number of orders with Ricoh and drove down the price in one fell swoop.
And Lin Zuhui knows the market prospects, so he will naturally operate in this way!
"Well, I believe in your vision. You are the smartest and most visionary businessman in the world!" Zou Kaixuan said with admiration.
Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "Say nice things about me in front of your children in the future, because I really owe you, mother and son!"
Zou Kaixuan immediately came to Lin Zuhui excitedly, massaged his shoulders, and said seriously: "There is no debt, you handed over such a large piece of industry to me to manage, and gave me shares. Moreover, I was trained by you.
Yes, without you, I would be where I am now!"
Lin Zuhui patted her hand and said seriously: "I have a hunch that Xiaomi Technology will become a trouble for me, because Huami may one day compete with each other in technology. And I am determined to become a global businessman and do not want to take sides. I
I might not have engaged in the high-tech industry. After all, with my skills, there is endless money to be made in the world. But considering that I am a Chinese, I want to leave a high-tech industry to my motherland as early as possible. Because of this, I chose you.
Be an agent. When the time comes, you will list Xiaomi Technology in Xiangjiang, and I will reduce the shares and then hide them. From now on, I only want you to listen to me, and Xiaomi Technology does not need to listen to me. Give me two children
Son, there is always one who can train a successor."
For a moment, Lin Zuhui put aside his thoughts because he knew that Zou Kaixuan was different from other women. This woman worshiped him very deeply, as if it was engraved in her bones. This kind of loyalty is safer than other women.
.
Zou Kaixuan couldn't help but be shocked. This man really took a long-term view of things. With such advanced foresight, he was simply a god-like figure. He was indeed a god in his own mind.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Okay, I will obey your arrangements! Likewise, I will definitely develop Xiaomi Technology!"
Lin Zuhui nodded and said: "Xiaomi Technology's profits should be used in research and development and invested in the technology industry as much as possible. As for how I can get my investment back, I can cash it out in stocks, so you don't have to think about it. Our country's technology industry is too backward.
And now many people are not aware of this problem. Therefore, Xiaomi Technology must do a good job and change this situation step by step. The more money we make, as long as we invest in the technology industry and respect talents, over time, we will achieve certain success
It’s huge!”
The most important thing in the technology industry is precipitation, the precipitation of technology. If Xiaomi Technology invests the profits from learning machines, VCD players, repeaters, mobile phones, USB flash drives, MP3 and other products into semiconductors, LCD screens, etc. Over time,
Great results will be achieved.
I think of some new energy vehicle brands in the previous life. They shouted slogans, absorbed tens of billions of R&D funds, and then went bankrupt in just one or two years. The founders received hundreds of millions in salary, and even working overtime to buy snacks cost millions. That’s it.
Such an enterprise is worthy of engaging in technology!
Zou Kaixuan admired Lin Zuhui even more. He had such a great mind!
"Okay! I will definitely implement your ambition!"
Lin Zuhui said with satisfaction: "Of course, although the investment is mainly in the mainland, overseas investment cannot be less. We cannot be a frog in the well. We must learn more from Europe, the United States, Japan and South Korea and tap their talents. For example, when we invest in semiconductors in Singapore, we have no
Experience, but there are talents in Singapore. Soon, their technology and experience were transferred to the mainland. European and American high-tech blockades, but there are always various loopholes, and you can definitely get a lot of technology."
"Well, not all technologies can be blocked. Our semiconductor technology is only a rudimentary technology, and we will gradually accumulate better technologies!" Zou Kaixuan said seriously.
Singapore's semiconductor industry only produces some simple products, but it has indeed entered the industry.
Speaking of which, the Lee family in Xiangjiang established Xinghua Semiconductor Company as early as 1979. This company has been developing well since then.
Semiconductors are a huge industry, and Xiaomi Technology is just getting started!
In the afternoon, Lin Zuhui walked around Xiaomi Technology Park for a long time. His mood was very complicated.
He also wants to be a technology tycoon, but he is essentially a businessman. It is his instinct to weigh the pros and cons, size up the situation, and play both sides.
But when he walked in the Xiaomi Technology Park, he felt a sense of pride!
It's a pity that he will leave for Beijing tomorrow, otherwise he would really want to visit every inch of Xiaomi Technology's land.
This science and technology industrial park alone is the first to try something new in mainland China.
However, he has never appeared in the media as the boss of Xiaomi Technology. Zou Kaixuan attended on his behalf. No one in Hong Kong knows that Lin Zuhui also owns a Xiaomi Technology company!
