After having a working meal with everyone, at 2:30 in the afternoon, in the 701 conference room of Huihong Group headquarters, Li Jianhui listened to the group's senior management's report on the recent development of Huihong Group.
Although Li Jianhui personally no longer holds any position in Huihong Group, his control over the group is very strong, and no senior executive has yet dared to challenge his authority.
At present, electronic companies are engaged in the manufacturing of printed circuit boards, and the construction of display manufacturing plants and the absorption of display technology.
The display technology acquired by Huihong Electronics is cathode ray tube display (CRT), which is currently the mainstream display and the technology is relatively stable.
However, Li Jianhui is clear about future development. Although liquid crystal displays (LCDs) have not yet developed on a large scale due to their high cost and unstable performance, he still requires the company to establish an LCD business department to focus on the development of cathode ray tube displays.
At the same time, we must also start researching and accumulating LCD technology.
Regarding the chip technology that Li Jianhui focused on, the discussions with Texas Instruments were not very pleasant. A few months later, there was still not much progress.
However, Yang Chengbin did not hang himself from a tree. In addition to discussing with Texas Instruments, the company is also actively negotiating with Intel, Motorola and other companies with the ability to manufacture chip technology.
The microprocessor chips produced by these companies are currently very popular in the market, especially Intel. Huihong Gaming Group purchases a large amount of Intel 8086 every month.
After Yang Chengbin finished his report on chip technology issues, Li Jianhui said: "Chip design and manufacturing technology is the core of the future development of our electronics company, and you must pay attention to it.
Don’t focus all your attention on the companies that are currently developing better in the world. I believe that chip R&D, design and manufacturing are not only available in the United States, but also in Western Europe, but they may not be so famous.
You need to conduct more investigations, especially companies within the Commonwealth. Maybe it will be easier for us to buy out technology licenses from these companies.
If you find some companies with good technical capabilities and small scale, you can also focus on them, and if there is an opportunity, we will acquire them directly."
The senior executives present were quite speechless at their boss's heroic attitude. It's not like everyone present didn't know what was going on with Xinjian. Every month, part of the profits generated by their Huihong Group would be diverted to support Xinjian Real Estate, allowing them to
There are enough funds to develop the Tianshui City project.
At present, funds are quite scarce, but Li Jianhui is still thinking about acquiring companies. I really wonder if his bold and confident confidence is due to the unknown source of funds.
Li Jianhui seems a little evil to them. In addition to the cash milk of his company, he seems to have other sources of funds. The funds used to acquire Wheelock and Hutchison Whampoa are now a mystery.
Maybe there will be an opportunity to acquire a chip R&D and manufacturing company, and Li Jianhui obtained a large amount of funds from unknown sources.
Since the big boss has given orders, they can only respond. Regardless of whether they have enough funds for acquisitions in the future, at least they need to do a good job in advance.
Fortunately, although there is no good news for chip design and manufacturing technology for the time being, chip packaging technology is going very smoothly, which has also allowed electronic companies to further expand their business in the electronic semiconductor industry after having printed circuit boards and displays.
"The electronic semiconductor industry will be a sunrise industry in the next few decades. I hope that everyone will attach great importance to this industry and ensure a certain proportion of investment in technology research and development, so that our technology can keep up with the mainstream of the world.
"

After the meeting, Li Jianhui, accompanied by Yang Chengbin and others, went to Tseung Kwan O Fai Hung Industrial Park and visited the operating printed circuit board production workshop.
We focused on visiting technical R&D designers who are absorbing display technology, and talked with everyone about the current mainstream market for displays and a development trend in the future.
Li Jianhui has great ambitions. In the future, he may enter into products such as home appliances, mobile phones and computers, as well as MP3, MP4, digital cameras and so on.
These all require monitors/displays. Once Huihong Electronics' display technology can reach world-class levels, this aspect will not be stuck at critical times.
At present, cathode ray tube displays are still the mainstream. When Li Jianhui mentioned that the main market in the future will be liquid crystal displays, most of the technicians present disagreed.
They do not believe that liquid crystal technology, which is expensive, extremely unstable, and has a high scrap rate, can replace cathode ray tube technology.
A technician said: "I personally think that whether it is an arcade monitor or a computer TV monitor, the most important thing is stability and universality. Just like LCD monitors, it is difficult to have a big market.
I think the most important thing for the company is to innovate in cathode ray tube technology and continuously improve quality while ensuring stability. This is the future trend of displays."
This man's words won the approval of most of the technicians present, who were all firm supporters of cathode ray tube technology.
In their view, LCD monitors are just toys for the rich and have no large-scale practical value. The market is too narrow and is very detrimental to the company's development.
However, there are several young people here who have different views. A young man who probably just graduated recently said:
"I personally support Li Sheng's opinion and I am very optimistic about the future market of LCD technology. As time goes by, many of the current problems in LCD technology can be solved one by one. By then, the stability will be the same as the pass rate and cathode ray tube displays.
When the technologies are almost the same, the market will be more willing to choose LCD monitors.
Although cathode ray tube monitors are good, their ceilings are just like that. With the rapid changes in technology, people have higher requirements for product quality in all aspects.
LCD displays can make products lighter and thinner, occupying less space, and conform to the trend of market development."
However, there are still too few voices supporting LCD displays. At present, most of the LCD technology is beaten by cathode ray tube computing. Before the technology is immature, it will be difficult to compete with cathode ray tube display technology.
Li Jianhui remembers that it was about two thousand years ago when LCD monitors really began to completely suppress cathode ray tube monitors, which is still more than ten or twenty years away from now.
However, he did not give up on LCD technology R&D reserves because of this, and arranged those R&D personnel who supported LCD technology to the LCD R&D department.
Most of these R&D personnel are mainly in the cathode ray tube display R&D department. In recent years, Huihong Electronics Company's displays are still mainly focused on this.
