Reborn in the red age

After Ni Guangnan's impassioned speech, the room fell silent. The technicians in the conference room all looked at Qingfeng Li. Even Wang Weimin looked at Qingfeng Li, waiting for him to make a decision.

Qingfeng Li rubbed his eyebrows. He was a private enterprise, so why did he talk about serving the country and the people? This was not his own subsidiary. If it was his own industry, there was nothing wrong with supporting it despite losing money.

The problem is, Factory 742 has nothing to do with me at all. It is a state-owned enterprise, and if it needs support, it must be supported by the state. Why should I pay real money to support it?
No wonder Liu Aiguo could easily kick Lao Ni out of the game. With Lao Ni's temper, which shareholder wouldn't be disgusted by it? I wish I could tell him to go away quickly, out of sight and out of mind.

Looking at the people waiting for him to make up his mind, Li Qingfeng was silent for a moment, turned to Wang Weimin and asked: "Weimin, you want to make DVD players in China. You are mainly using the chips in our country. You are a what idea?"

"Ah, that. Brother, I listen to you."

Wang Weimin hesitated for a moment, and wanted to use the cheaper one, but seeing the eager eyes of Ni Guangnan and other scientific researchers, Wang Weimin gave up and passed the blame to Qingfeng Li again.

Seeing that Wang Weimin was unreliable and turned the blame back on him, Li Qingfeng felt angry.

Okay, if you dare to pass the blame to me, I dare to take over. Anyway, you will pay for it.

Li Qingfeng immediately said in a deep voice: "Old Ni is right. We can't spend money to support other countries' chip industries. Every penny we spend will turn into bullets fired at us in the future. Forging iron requires ourselves. It’s hard. If we want to avoid being stuck, we need to support our own semiconductor companies.”

"Great"

"Wait, don't applaud in a hurry, I haven't finished speaking yet." Before Lao Ni and other researchers could cheer, Li Qingfeng interrupted: "We can indeed give this order to a domestic company, but , Factory 742 is a state-owned enterprise after all. It can promote the development of the domestic semiconductor industry and subsidize it, but we can’t subsidize it alone, right?”

Having said this, Qingfeng Li paused, glanced at the expressions of the people in the room, and then slowly continued: "So, what I mean is, if we bring the government in, compared with the quotations provided by Japanese companies, it will exceed The government will bear 70% and we will bear 30%.”

Even Ni Guangnan knows that supporting the revitalization of the domestic semiconductor industry requires a private enterprise alone. Even if Lemon Company is sold, it will not be enough to subsidize it.

Being able to give a domestic order, plus a small subsidy, and let the government take the bulk, can already be said to be a national entrepreneur who cares about the country and the people. Therefore, when faced with Qingfeng Li's proposal, everyone nodded in agreement. .

After the inspection team unified their opinions, they officially started business contact with Factory 742.

Without waiting for Director Yang to start boasting, at Li Qingfeng's signal, Lao Ni took out the relevant information about the decoding chip and handed it to Director Luo: "Director Luo, we have a chip here that we want your factory to manufacture. This is Regarding the chip information, please see if Factory 742 can produce it."

Director Luo is a standard science and engineering man. When faced with the first business to come to him in the country, he did not directly guarantee that he would be able to produce it. Instead, he took the information handed over by Lao Ni and looked at it carefully.

While Director Luo was reading the information, everyone was quietly drinking tea from their cups, and no one spoke.

Factory Director Yang, who was sitting in the main seat, looked at the quiet conference room and couldn't help praying in his heart that Director Luo must keep this OEM order in the factory.
This Lemon Company is a big financier. I heard that the company’s cash flow is billions of dollars. When we were still making computers, there were factories such as Factory 878 in Sijiu City, Radio Factory in Magic City, and Component Factory Five in Magic City. The factory is full of food, receives soft orders, and earns tens of millions of dollars in foreign exchange for the country.

Now that people have found their own factory, can the order amount be small? No matter what, it must be an order worth tens of millions, right? The factory has been prosperous in recent years, and it seems to be the first in the semiconductor field, but the efficiency is just that. Orders are all coordinated by the state, and there are no orders from the market at all.

Just as Director Yang was looking forward to it, Director Luo finally finished reading the information.

Director Luo didn't say anything after putting down the information. He lit a cigarette and shook his head with a wry smile: "Old Ni, the chip you want does not have high process requirements. Our factory can make it."

Everyone here is a smart person, and it can be seen from Director Luo's expression that he has not finished speaking, and the rest of his words are not good.

Sure enough, after taking a deep breath of cigarette, Director Luo's eyes dimmed and he continued to say bitterly: "Although this chip does not have high requirements for process, it is also a relatively advanced chip. The production process of our factory is in line with that of advanced companies in the world. There is a certain gap, the yield rate will be lower, and the price for you will be higher."

In the chip field, production equipment accounts for only a fraction of the cost of semiconductors, and the production process is the bulk.

At the current domestic level in the semiconductor field, although the production equipment is complete, it is only capable of production. There is no market to promote domestic demand to improve the production process, resulting in high production costs. This is also the basis for the popularity of making rather than buying in a few years.

"Lao Luo, what are you talking about? Why is the production cost high? Our factory has organized manpower to overcome the production process. I believe there will be a result soon. Besides, the state subsidizes the semiconductor field." Seeing Lao Luo push the business that was delivered to his door, Director Yang suddenly became anxious and quickly explained, trying to save the order.

Before Director Yang could finish speaking, Ni Guangnan interrupted Director Yang's speech: "Lao Luo, we know the domestic chip industry very well. I also know what you said. We are mentally prepared for this." , can you give us a rough figure, what is the price of a chip?”

When Factory Director Yang heard that there was hope, he immediately became energetic again and quickly winked at Director Luo. The meaning was very obvious. First, he would quote a low price to retain the person, and the rest would be done after the order was obtained. Say it again.

After discussions with Director Luo and other personnel, Factory 742 gave a quotation of 780 yuan per piece, which can deliver approximately 2000 pieces in one month.

When he heard the price and output, Qingfeng Li's face darkened, and he had the urge to get up and leave.

The price is too scary. The price offered by foreign factories is 80 US dollars per piece, which is 240 yuan according to the current official exchange rate. The monthly output is tens of thousands. As long as there are enough orders, you can have as many as you need.

The gap between the two sides is really too big. You must know that once VCD is produced, it will not be tens of thousands of units. In the next twenty years alone, the sales volume in China will be tens of millions.

According to the 162% subsidy, if it can be negotiated, one unit will cost an additional yuan. I can’t imagine it.

Finally, under the pitiful gazes of Lao Ni and other old men, Li Qingfeng finally spoke up: "Director Yang, we need to produce 200,000 chips of this chip in the early stage. In the next ten years, about There is a demand for 30 million chips.”

hiss~
After Qingfeng Li revealed the order volume, all the leaders of Factory 742 in the conference room took a deep breath.

This is so scary. The initial demand alone is 200,000 pieces. If Director Luo's quotation is followed, the transaction volume in the early stage alone will be as high as 160 million.

There are only 30 million chips in the later period, and Factory Director Yang can't even think about it. The number of chips that are completely overtaken is an astronomical number.

Director Yang, who was the first to react, stared at Qingfeng Li with ardent eyes. He looked at Qingfeng Li and his friends as if they were beautiful women, and he wanted to eat Qingfeng Li and his friends. "Teacher Li, Teacher Ni, Mr. Wang, this order must be handed over to our factory. I can assure you that before the end of next year, our factory will definitely improve the production process, increase production capacity, and lower prices." Director Yang spoke, and Director Luo looked at the inspection team and others with red eyes.

As a technician who has been engaged in the semiconductor industry all his life, Director Luo has seen the glory of the domestic semiconductor industry with his own eyes, and naturally understands the root cause of the deterioration of the domestic semiconductor industry.

It can be said that the domestic semiconductor field got up early in the morning, but rushed to the market late.

In 56, the call for "March to Science" was put forward and semiconductor technology was listed as one of the four major national emergency measures.

In 60, our country initially established a "R&D + production" system for the semiconductor industry. In 65, it successfully developed the Type 65 contact lithography machine. At that time, Japan had just entered this field for two years.

Until the reform and opening up, domestic research in this field was still at the forefront of the world and did not fall far behind.

However, because there is no domestic market demand for chips, there has been no large-scale industrial production, and it has been unable to promote the progress of production technology. As a result, the yield rate in the domestic semiconductor field is frighteningly low. It can only produce small quantities. After the country opens, it will face its peers in the world. There is no way to fight.

Now that he finally has a big order and intends to support the domestic semiconductor industry, Director Luo wants to strive for a glimmer of hope for the domestic semiconductor industry even though he knows there is little hope.

"That's right, that's right, all the comrades in the inspection team can rest assured. Believe us, our factory will definitely improve the production process by the end of next year at the latest." Director Yang also hurriedly agreed.

After ending the meeting, Li Qingfeng brought Wang Weimin to a head-to-head meeting and wanted to ask him what he thought.

In the final analysis, Wang Weimin is making VCDs in China. Qingfeng Li has no intention of entering this field. Isn't it good to just collect patent fees and sell chips? The profit of this thing is much higher than that of industry.

"Brother, you've seen Lao Ni's attitude. I haven't gone to school much, so I don't know much about it, but I think Lao Ni and the others are right. You can't spend money to support companies from other countries. Just be more expensive. Well, you can’t make enough money.”

Hearing what Wang Weimin said, Li Qingfeng was shocked. Is this still the Wang Weimin he knew? You won't be snatched away like yourself, right?
After looking at Wang Weimin carefully for a long time, until Wang Weimin felt scared, Li Qingfeng patted Wang Weimin on the shoulder: "Your kid's ideological consciousness is higher than mine now. If we can negotiate, the cost will be increased." Baiduo, I don’t charge you royalties, and I don’t make money from your chips. If the machine sells for two thousand yuan, you still make a profit.”

After listening to Li Qingfeng's words, Wang Weimin's face was a little complicated, and he seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"What? What's your expression? If you have anything to say, just say it."

"Brother, that's what I thought. Since the production cost has increased, will the price set at that time also need to be changed? Let's sell one unit for two thousand and two, what do you think?"

"You mean to suffer the common people?"

"Yes, for the development of the country, we should work hard for the common people."

"You know how to pass on transfer costs"

"."

After unifying his thoughts with Wang Weimin, Li Qingfeng did not delay. He went to Factory Manager Yang to express his thoughts and made a document for him to send to see what the local government had to say.

When this information was submitted, it caused a huge sensation in Wuxi. The matter was too big and the local government could not make the decision. It could only report it layer by layer. It soon stopped at Jinling, the provincial capital of JS, and did not continue to report it to the central government.

Before the tax-sharing system was implemented in 94, Jiangsu was not a bulk Jiangsu, and various city administrative departments still listened to the big brother Jinling.

After 94, the lower counties and cities began to dissatisfy the management of the big brother Jinling, and gradually formed a loose structure of 13 regiments directly under the central government + 40 independent regiments + a number of directly affiliated brigades and district teams.

After learning about it in detail, Jinling was very optimistic about the future of the VCD industry and also sent a survey team to conduct a detailed investigation.

After many meetings between Jinling, Wuxi and the investigation team, the Jinling investigation team returned to Jinling with the information they had collected over the past few days.

Two days later, Jinling sent important people to Wuxi. After personally experiencing the DVD player, they gave an accurate answer to Lemon Company.

The plan proposed by Li Qingfeng can be implemented. Jiangsu is willing to pool the province's financial resources to provide subsidies, but the DVD player factory must be built in JS Province for production, and the corporate tax will not be reduced or reduced.

After waiting for Jinling's reply, Li Qingfeng was completely speechless. Well, they also know how to pass on costs.

Wang Weimin wants to pass on the cost to consumers. It should be his own profit, and he doesn't want to give up a cent.

Jinling wants to set up a DVD player factory in Jiangsu. While boosting Jiangsu's economy and providing a large number of jobs, it also wants to recover some money from tax revenue.

Li Qingfeng held another meeting with Wang Weimin. Wang Weimin was indifferent to where the company was located. The problem now was that the factory in Mentougou had been built and he had borrowed a huge loan from the local bank.

Regarding this issue, Li Qingfeng thought about it for a while and decided to take over the Mentougou factory to solve Wang Weimin's worries.

The idea here was quickly reported to Jinling, who quickly took out a map of industrial land in Jinling City and asked Wang Weimin to choose the land to build the factory at will.

I originally thought that the matter had been resolved perfectly, but just when Li Qingfeng was about to return to Sijiu City, something went wrong again.

Wuxi is no longer willing. The company came to Jiangsu because of our Wuxi. Why should we build the factory in Jinling? (End of chapter)
