Chapter 1437 Triangle Debt

This time several major PC giants in the United States visited Telling Group, mainly because of negotiating the licensing of NAND flash memory chip technology patents.

Since IBM began to use NAND flash memory chip products to upgrade, the market feedback has been very good, and the performance of PC grade has been significantly improved. Therefore, after obtaining enough market feedback, other American PC giants, including IBM, also intend to use the new generation of On the computer, use Tianyin Group's NAND flash memory chip.

In addition, the reason why these American giants chose the patent of a Chinese company is because the performance of NAND flash memory chips is superior to that of traditional NOR flash memory chips, the read and write speed is faster, and the operation is quite stable. It is a very good chip product.

In addition, at the end of last year, the Toshiba incident broke out suddenly. Although Duan Yun had reminded the president of Toshiba to cover up the incident as much as possible, it still could not be covered by paper. After investigation by the US military, Finally found evidence that Toshiba exported high-end machine tools to the Soviet Union, and the US government also began to put pressure on Toshiba's company.

In the mid-to-late 80s, Japan was the absolute overlord of the world's storage chips. Especially after Intel gave up the storage chip business, Japanese chip companies have formed a monopoly in this field. All American PC giants use Japanese storage chips.

Because the Toshiba incident had a great impact, it aroused great indignation from the U.S. government and the people. In addition, the Japanese economy has greatly surpassed the U.S. trend in recent years. It is precisely because of this that many U.S. companies began to avoid cooperation with Japan during this period Company cooperation.

People who do business only have interests in their eyes, but they are also guided by some public opinion and politics.

The smuggling turmoil of Toshiba this time has had too much impact, and many American companies that cooperate with Japan are also facing great pressure from public opinion. Therefore, in order to alleviate the pressure, American companies have also begun to find replacements for Japanese partners as much as possible.

It is precisely for these two reasons that several major PC giants in the United States came to China one after another, hoping to sign a technology licensing agreement with Tianyin Group, and use Tianyin Group's NAND flash memory chips to gradually replace Japanese-made flash memory chip products.

Within three days, Duan Yun has signed a patent licensing contract with Apple, Hewlett-Packard and other companies. The total amount of the contract is as high as more than 4300 million U.S. dollars. For each authorized chip production, Duan Yun can earn 25 U.S. dollars from it, a profit Quite impressive.

Compared with the billions or even billions of dollars in annual profits of these multinational technology giants, Tianyin Group can only reach a fraction of the annual profits of these companies, and the gap is still very large. However, as a Chinese company, a few days An order of more than 4000 million US dollars can be signed within a short period of time, which is definitely a sensational event in the whole country.

You must know that in China in the 80s, apart from China Minmetals Group and the textile industry, no company was able to obtain a one-time export contract of 4000 million US dollars, and the most important thing is that this contract is only a patent licensing fee, Tianyin Group does not need to produce Anything so that in the eyes of many people, it seems like pie in the sky.

But in fact, Duan Yun also understands in his heart that his patent authorization is just a small profit. If these chips can be made by his company, the profit can at least be doubled.

However, American PC giants do not want China to produce such chips. On the one hand, it is because the distance between China and the United States is far away, and transportation is more troublesome. On the other hand, the chip production technology in the United States is better than that in China. This kind of chip capability, but American companies still hand over chips to domestic manufacturers for OEM.

Mayor Li Hao also witnessed the whole process of signing the contract between Tianyin Group and Hewlett-Packard Apple and other companies. When he learned that the contract was only a patent licensing fee, Li Hao was shocked beyond words. It is unbelievable that private companies will transfer technology to American technology giants one day, and the amount is so large.

And this also made Li Hao deeply realize the value of high-end technology again. On the second day after Tianyin Group signed the contract, Li Hao organized a meeting of the municipal party committee to discuss the development of high-tech industries in Shenzhen.

In addition to Apple, Hewlett-Packard and other companies, IBM from the United States also came to China this time.

Duan Yun has visited IBM headquarters before, and has signed a patent licensing agreement with their company, but this time IBM returned to Shenzhen mainly to set up an office in Shenzhen.

Prior to this, IBM has set up two offices in BJ and Shanghai, and Shenzhen is the third office they have set up in mainland China, mainly for the purpose of developing the market in mainland China and absorbing talents and technologies from Shenzhen. It can be seen from this , They attach great importance to Shenzhen.

After learning about this, Li Hao was also very happy, and provided them with a temporary office for free, and promised to give them preferential policies and taxes.

With the growing influence and importance of Tianyin Group in SZ City, their group has also become a "key protection" enterprise in SZ City. They have been enjoying preferential policies in place, and the development of the company is relatively stable.

However, in stark contrast, private enterprises in Shenzhen and other provinces and cities across the country have quietly ushered in a "cold wave".

Since the beginning of March, the country has started the first step in the rectification of private enterprises, the first is to crack down on tax evasion and tax evasion.

Jiangsu Province, where the private economy is developed, has focused on the taxation survey of private enterprises since the beginning of March, and concluded that "the current situation of self-employed tax evasion and tax evasion is very serious, accounting for 3% of the total number of enterprises", followed by tax recovery. In just half a month, Jiangsu Province has paid 80 million yuan in back taxes, and another nearly 5 million yuan in taxes is being pursued.

Many private companies experienced a storm in the first wave of rectification, among which companies suspected of huge tax evasion were directly shut down and seized, which also caused many emerging private companies in the budding stage of development to be completely strangled before they started to grow and develop. .

Private enterprises generally have a hard time, and state-owned enterprises are also struggling at this time. The biggest problem is the "triangular debt" problem among enterprises.

Because of the tightening and changes in policies, the original normal goods and capital exchanges between enterprises were instantly disrupted, and the cycle of capital arrears formed a vicious circle without beginning and end, and the problem of "triangular debt" quickly fermented across the country.

In Shandong, the province’s triangular debt is as high as 43 billion yuan, and the distress caused by this far exceeds the difficulties caused by the shortage of coal and electricity. The triangular debt in Liaoning is 45 billion yuan, HLJ and Jilin are 60 billion yuan, and Jiangsu has exceeded 100 billion yuan. , according to the bank's collection and acceptance statistics, by the end of March, the total amount of arrears of enterprises across the country beyond the normal settlement cycle had reached 3 billion yuan. Far beyond the normal range of commercial credit.
