Chapter 1581 Industry Transfer
"go to Shanghai?"

"That's right, we are going to open a branch factory in Shanghai this time, and you may also go to Shanghai to work for a long time in the future. You have to be mentally prepared for this in advance." Duan Yun said seriously.

"But at present, the main business of our Longteng machine processing factory is in Shenzhen..." Zhang Weidong asked a little puzzled.

"In the future, the main business of our factory in Shenzhen will still be processing mechanical parts of various electronic products, and we will set up a branch factory in Shanghai, whose main business will be the production of auto parts..."

"Produce auto parts!?" Hearing this, Zhang Weidong's eyes widened immediately, and he asked in surprise, "But the problem is that our private enterprises are not qualified to produce auto parts?"

"Do you still remember the executive from Poly Company who visited your factory last time?" Duan Yun smiled slightly, and then said: "As a central enterprise, Poly Company has already invested in our Longteng machine processing plant. Next, the company will Renamed and reorganized, named Longteng Co., Ltd. Poly has already helped us obtain the automobile industry permit. I went to Shanghai some time ago because I was invited by the SH municipal government to participate in the National Auto Industry Forum, so... we now You can build a car!"

"That's great!" Hearing what Duan Yun said, Zhang Weidong was so excited that he almost jumped up.

The automobile industry is his old profession. When he was in the Northeast Dandong Automobile Factory, he started as a technician and became the deputy chief engineer of the factory. He has been engaged in the automobile industry for more than 20 years. He is very familiar with this industry and has Although he has been engaged in the processing of mechanical parts of electronic products since he came to Longteng Machine Processing Factory, in his heart, he has a car dream just like Duan Yun.

Now that the country has lifted the restrictions, this is definitely something worth celebrating for Zhang Weidong. He seems to have returned to his work and life at the Dandong Automobile Factory.

"Although our Longteng machine processing factory has accumulated automobile technology over the years, there is still a big gap between the technology accumulation and the mass production of finished products, and we are dealing with companies like Shanghai Volkswagen this time, and the Santana car technology is quite difficult. Gao, we want to gain a foothold in Shanghai and compete head-on with many domestic manufacturers to become the supplier handed over by Santana. This is a very challenging thing." Duan Yun paused, and then said: "So you The business trip to Shanghai this time is a very heavy task. According to the arrangement in Shanghai, you need to go to Shanghai Volkswagen for an on-site visit and negotiate with the technicians of their factory. After obtaining relevant information, perform technical work according to the requirements of the manufacturer. Analyze and determine the product direction that our Longteng company will develop and produce. The other is the location of the factory. The SH city government will provide you with some address choices. You should give priority to ensuring the local water and electricity supply, and match it with other cars as much as possible. Enterprises keep a relatively close distance, which is conducive to product transportation..."

Duan Yun began to explain to Zhang Weidong in detail what he wanted to accomplish in this trip to Shanghai.

In fact, in Duan Yun's opinion, Zhang Weidong is a very steady and quick-witted person, and Duan Yun is quite at ease in arranging him to go to Shanghai for business. He is also in the Tianyin Group, and he is one of the few who can stand alone. And someone who won Duan Yun's trust.

"I understand, I promise to complete the task." After listening to Duan Yun's arrangement, Zhang Weidong replied very simply.

"This matter is of great importance. Before the relevant details are in place, you should communicate with the personnel of Shanghai Datong as much as possible. Once the direction is set, many things cannot be easily modified in the future." Duan Yun Said with a serious face.

"I understand that I will stay with Shanghai Volkswagen for as long as possible and get as much technical information from them as possible." Zhang Weidong nodded in response.

"Then go back and rest for the next two days, and wait for the notice." Duan Yun waved his hand, indicating that Zhang Weidong can leave.

"To Mr. Duan, I want to ask..."

"Say something."

"That's it. If I live in Shanghai in the future, who will manage our factory in Shenzhen?" Zhang Weidong asked.

"Liu Shoudao, the deputy factory director, is also the workshop director of your automobile factory in the northeast. After you go to Shanghai, I will arrange for him to be the factory director of the machining factory in Shenzhen." Duan Yun glanced at Zhang Weidong, and then said: "Originally, I didn't want to announce this to the public so soon, but since you asked, I'll tell you the truth. In the future, the production and R&D center of our newly reorganized Longteng Co., Ltd. will be transferred to Shanghai. You are the general manager of the newly established company."

"Okay!" Hearing this, Zhang Weidong immediately relaxed, then turned and left.

In fact, when Duan Yun first came to Shenzhen, he planned to develop the automobile industry in Shenzhen, but the reality is that Shenzhen is not suitable for the development of heavy industry. The consumption of various resources is also huge, which is simply not something that a city like Shenzhen, which developed from a small fishing village, can afford.

Therefore, developing the electronics industry in Shenzhen is the right path. The SZ city government has always regarded the electronics industry as the economic development center of SZ city. However, Shenzhen has inherent limitations and deficiencies in the development of heavy industries, and it is precisely because of this , Duan Yun will shift his attention to Shanghai.

What's more, Duanyun in Shanghai can still find a big tree like Ruiyang. Although Ruiyang can't be too partial to Tianyin Group, at least it can provide preferential policies and support, which will definitely not be less than other local state-owned enterprises. , which is sufficient.

However, setting up a factory in Shanghai is not an easy task. There are many steps to take and it will take a long time. Therefore, Duan Yun’s goal is to set up a research and development center in Shanghai before June next year. The construction needs to be arranged and invested according to the arrangements of the SH municipal government and the needs of SAIC Volkswagen. For this, Duan Yun plans to prepare at least 6 million yuan in the early stage.

In addition, before the end of this year, Duan Yun still has another important matter to deal with, and that is the establishment of a joint venture factory with Western Digital in Shenzhen.

Since Cohen from Western Digital visited Shenzhen last year and negotiated with Duan Yun, the cooperation between the two companies has been put on the agenda.

At the beginning of this year, Duan Yun finally received feedback from Western Digital. After discussion by the Western Digital board of directors, he believed that it was feasible to set up a joint venture factory in Shenzhen, and also sent a related team to SZ Municipal Government. Negotiations are expected to take place in April this year, when Western Digital invested in the construction of its first factory in Asia, and the first product produced by this factory is their latest 4MB mechanical hard drive.
