Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 1725 Rooted in China
Also at this moment, Duan Yun seemed to suddenly understand why Yang Shoucheng respected him so much.

For a long time, Duan Yun has definitely been regarded as the most famous private entrepreneur in the mainland, and because he has maintained good business relations with the domestic media, Duan Yun has always appeared in the media with a positive image over the years, not only his Individuals, including Tianyin Group, have now become a benchmark and role model for domestic private enterprises, and some of them have far more influence than ordinary enterprises.

Yang Shoucheng reads the mainland newspapers all the year round, so he has naturally seen many reports about Duan Yun, and he has also felt the unusual trend from these reports. In his opinion, Duan Yun is absolutely impossible to be an ordinary private entrepreneur , it is absolutely impossible to do such a big business without a certain background and family background.

Another point is that compared with the financial and real estate tycoons in Hong Kong, Duan Yun has developed a real high-tech enterprise, and has also become a supplier of a well-known American multinational company. This is seen by many Hong Kong people. This is simply unbelievable, because in their minds, the mainland is a poor and backward agricultural country, and many people are still growing above the subsistence level, and they are simply unable to develop high-tech industries.

It is precisely because of this that Yang Shoucheng's interest in Duan Yun is getting bigger and bigger. If it were not for the two places, Yang Shoucheng would have invited Duan Yun to visit him. This time, he learned that his son had already met Duan Yun. Afterwards, he immediately asked his son Yang Qilong to invite Duan Yun to his house as a guest.

So there is no need for Duan Yun to introduce himself, Yang Shoucheng already has Duan Yun's wealth and strength.

"I heard from my son that Mr. Duan came to Hong Kong this time to raise some funds. Is it true?" Yang Shoucheng asked.

"That's true." Duan Yun nodded, and continued: "Our group has been expanding industrial projects in recent years. You may also know that I used to start by selling electronic products, and then started to develop the chip industry, but I Before coming to Shenzhen in the early years, I was a technician of a state-owned enterprise, and I also won the National Gold Medal for the development of automobile gearboxes. At that time, I always had a dream, which was to build a domestically-made automobile with international advanced level... "

"Mr. Duan is really a caring person." Yang Shoucheng showed approval, and then said: "But building a car is not easy..."

"It's really not an easy task. Not to mention the big gap between our domestic industrial development level and the international level, the capital threshold required to build a car is also frighteningly high." Duan Yun paused, then continued. : "In order to fulfill my dream of building a car, I also opened a machining factory in Shenzhen, bought 4 advanced processing machine tools through various means, and recruited many technicians and managers who had previously worked in state-owned automobile factories. personnel, in order to be able to fulfill my dream when I have enough funds and strength in the future..."

"There are not many entrepreneurs like you. Compared with you, we are just a simple businessman..." Yang Shoucheng smiled slightly, and then said: "But with your current wealth and financial resources, it should be more than enough to do the automobile industry Bar."

"I have made a lot of money in the past few years, but because more and more businesses have been expanded and more and more high-end talents have been introduced, money is everywhere, so funds are not so abundant, especially foreign exchange. I previously set up research and development centers in the United States, Germany and Hong Kong. These are very expensive departments. The average salary is ten times or even dozens of times higher than that in our country. It is like hiring a cleaner in the mainland. It is enough to pay the cleaning staff a few tens of hundreds of dollars a month, but in foreign countries, I need to spend at least a few hundred to a few thousand dollars, and it is still in US dollars. Since last year, we have The company also introduced a large number of technical talents from the former Soviet Union. In order to rob people, I paid these Soviet experts twice to more than ten times higher salaries than countries such as the United States and Europe. In addition, various taxes in foreign countries are also high, relying on me Now I earn foreign exchange every year through foreign trade business, but I can barely maintain it..."

"The two of them really spend a lot of money, especially the high-end talents, who have hundreds of thousands of dollars a month, which is indeed a lot of money." Yang Shoucheng said.

"Although overseas R&D centers are expensive, with the strength of our group company, we can still support these people. The main reason why I came to Hong Kong to raise funds this time is that I went to Sweden last year. I visited the production line of Volvo Cars on the spot, and felt that their product technology is very suitable for the needs of domestic car consumers, and the other party also has the willingness to sell the previous generation of production lines, so I had a difficult negotiation with them..." Duan Yun said When he went to Sweden to visit and signed the contract with Volvo, he told Yang Shoucheng the whole thing, and finally said: "If Mr. Yang is willing to participate in the mainland auto industry by means of loans or investment shares, I will do my best to make this project a reality." got up..."

"1.7 million US dollars is not a small number, but it is not impossible. Regarding this matter, I still need to investigate and prepare..."

"This is no problem at all. I welcome Mr. Yang anytime in Shenzhen, and I will show you around our Tianyin Group's automobile companies in Shenyang and Shanghai." Duan Yun continued with a smile: "And Even if I don't make money, I still have to do my best to protect Mr. Yang's interests in the Mainland..."

"So what if you earn more and less?" Yang Shoucheng smiled, and continued, "Actually, I was born in Hong Kong, but my roots are in the mainland. I also hope to contribute to the development of the mainland."

"Mr. Yang is so admirable." Duan Yun said.

If other Hong Kong businessmen said this, Duan Yun would probably be noncommittal, but Yang Shoucheng is really patriotic.

Since the 80s, Yang Shoucheng, already a wealthy businessman in Hong Kong, returned to his hometown of Chaozhou and donated the Beige Buddha Lamp, the West Lake Hongqiao Gate Tower Pavilion, Laiyi Primary School in Xiangqiao District, Yangcheng New Village, and also built bridges and roads. Hospitals, Chaoan Overseas Chinese Middle School, Municipal Gymnasium and other charitable public welfare projects.

After his career flourished, Yang Shoucheng went back to his hometown in Chaozhou for sightseeing in the winter of 1977. At that time, he saw that the villagers had difficulty with water, the roads were rough, the roads were muddy, and the street lights were not bright. After returning to Hong Kong, he donated 12 Hong Kong dollars to lay water pipes and pave cement roads for his hometown. , Also install street lights.

Laiyi Primary School was built by Yang Shoucheng in the early 80s with an investment of more than 40 yuan. The word "Laiyi" was named after Yang Shoucheng's grandfather.By 1986, Yang Shoucheng had donated more than 40 yuan as the teaching fund of Laiyi Primary School.

In addition, during the flood in East China last year, Yang Shoucheng also donated money and supplies. Unlike other Hong Kong businessmen who only talk about patriotism, Yang Shoucheng really contributed a lot of real money...
