Chapter 1019 The Big Tree Attracts the Wind
In the blink of an eye, in June, the number of holding companies under Duan Yun has reached seven. In addition to helping them install sewage facilities, Wang Shi purchased a large number of obsolete second-hand semiconductor parts production equipment from Hong Kong through Wang Shi's foreign trade company in Hong Kong. Ready to be installed in its holding company.

This time Duan Yun was still generous, spending a total of more than 170 million yuan, not including the 5% handling fee paid to Wang Shi's company.

After buying these second-hand equipment, Duan Yun still needs to redesign and transform it. They have already obtained the drawings and materials of these second-hand equipment in Hong Kong, and handed them over to the research institute for improved design. The person in charge of equipment installation is still the general manager. Worker Zhao Xuewu.

In fact, Duan Yun can buy a large amount of foreign exchange from Wang Shi now. The production line imported from Japan is undoubtedly more advanced, but Duan Yun does not intend to do this, because he knows a truth, and these holding companies cannot be fed too much. Otherwise, once they have the most advanced equipment and earn a lot of money from the orders provided by Duan Yun, sooner or later their wings will harden and they will break away from Duan Yun's control.

The second-hand production lines in Hong Kong are the best choice. On the one hand, these production lines are slightly better than domestic production lines, but they are not very advanced. After leaving Duan Yun, these small private factories are not as good as state-owned enterprises. It doesn't have many advantages and competitiveness, but it has the ability to produce the parts that Duan Yun needs.

After all, Duan Yun just wants to control a complete parts supply chain by himself, but he doesn't intend to let these private companies become too big and strong, otherwise Duan Yun will be difficult to control.

Now Cheng Qingyan is used to her husband's spending money like water, but as long as the company's current orders are large and profitable, he can turn a blind eye to these things, and she also understands that Duan Yun's current layout is very important for the company's future development. The good thing is that although a lot of investment is required in the short term, in the long run, it will help further improve product quality and reduce the cost of purchasing parts. As long as orders for new recorders continue to flow, the invested funds will be earned back sooner or later.

In addition to purchasing equipment for the holding company, Duan Yun spent more than 20 yuan this time, buying a Santana sedan and four Dongfeng 4 trucks to deliver goods to the factory.

In fact, Duan Yun originally wanted to buy an imported car, but considering that Duan Yun wanted to localize Santana cars in the future, he finally chose the Santana cars produced in Shanghai. At present, the price of Shanghai Santana cars is very expensive, and one car costs 12 yuan. People who can afford this kind of car are either rich or expensive, and there are not many such cars even in the urban area of ​​Guangzhou.

In fact, the initial price of the Santana sedan in China was 8 yuan, but it has risen all the way, and it reached 24 at the highest point. When Duan Yun bought this Santana, the price had not yet fully risen, so the price of 12 yuan was not enough. It is very suitable.

In mid-June, all the cars Duan Yun purchased were delivered. When four Dongfeng 6 trucks arrived at the factory, Duan Yun’s two apprentices, Da Jun and Er Hu, seemed very excited. He never touched the steering wheel again, but this time Duan Yun bought four trucks in one go, with two on each side of the electronics factory and the machinery factory, which undoubtedly gave Dajun and Erhu the opportunity to drive.

Cheng Qingyan was the most excited. When he was attending night school in Daxing, he used to ride in the 212 jeep driven by Duan Yun. The Santana car is different. It has a spacious and exquisite compartment, with soft seats, and it is very comfortable to sit in. This makes it much more convenient for Cheng Qingyan, who has been relying on buses and Duan Yun motorcycles to go home for several months, to travel. When she was in Daxing, she had already learned to drive under the guidance of Duan Yun, so after buying the Santana car, she immediately drove the car around the factory.

"I'll assign you a driver later on to pick you up and go to get off work." Duan Yun took a puff of cigarette after seeing his excited wife get out of the car.

"You don't need a driver, you just come to pick me up every day, and I can drive this car myself." Cheng Qingyan said with a smile.

"Get off work early tonight, Boss Zhou will treat us to dinner." Duan Yun said.

"Actually, I think we invested too much in Zhou Jianglong's factory. Two sets of second-hand semiconductor processing equipment in Hong Kong cost us 3 US dollars in foreign exchange, and we gave them so many orders. For a small factory like theirs , It's not worth such a big investment." Cheng Qingyan said.

"Didn't we also get 50% of the shares? Since it is a subsidiary holding company, there is no need to worry about so much." Duan Yun smiled slightly, and then said: "And now we can buy a large number of semiconductor components at a very low price , In the future, when you buy raw materials, you don’t need to look at the faces of those big state-owned factories, isn’t that good?”

"In fact, the electronic components of our local state-owned factory in Shenzhen are not expensive. I really don't think Zhou Jianglong can give our factory much cheaper. Don't we have to buy most of our raw materials from other state-owned electronics factories?" Cheng Qingyan disapproved. Said.

Duan Yun does control many private electronics companies now, but in general, these private electronics factories are too small, and Duan Yun’s orders for colorful tape recorders are increasing, which is far from satisfying Duan Yun’s current procurement of electronic components Demand, so most electronic components still need to be purchased from local state-owned factories in Shenzhen.

In addition to spare parts, Duan Yun has also handed over a large number of tape recorder assembly orders to Huafa and other state-owned electronics manufacturers, so so far, Duan Yun still has not got rid of his dependence on Shenzhen's state-owned enterprises.

"You will understand the benefits of my doing this in the future." Duan Yun didn't want to waste any more time explaining to his wife, but he continued: "When you go to dinner tonight, try to praise our factory's advantages as much as possible, including In terms of technical orders, they will be more willing to follow us wholeheartedly."

"Our factory is pretty good now, just tell the truth, there is no need to praise it at all." When she said this, Cheng Qingyan's face flashed with pride, and she continued: "Don't say anything else, just It’s because there are so many trucks waiting at the entrance of our electronics factory, which is incomparable to other factories.”

"Yeah." Duan Yun nodded with a smile, and then said: "Actually, I feel that we are a little too aggressive now. I guess many other electronics factories are jealous. This is actually not a good thing..."
