The PLA Navy is killing all parties in Hawaii. At this time, Qi Yiming in China also has a major event to be busy with, and that is the Canton Fair to be held this month.
The official name of the Canton Fair is the China Import and Export Fair. It was founded in 1957. It has a historic position in the history of China's foreign import and export trade, and has continued to exist as the most influential China's import and export trade fair until later generations. With.
This is a window that plays a decisive role in this era, and it can also be said to be the starting point for Chinese products to go abroad. Last year's Canton Fair did not make any arrangements because Qi Yiming was new, but this year is different. A large number of new technologies and new management disseminated by the Red Alert Base have taken root in major enterprises, and some have regained their vitality. The company has come up with products that are considered good by world standards.
Although Shenghua Group, led by Qi Yiming, is mainly engaged in the trade of military products, some of its subsidiaries also produce civilian products, or several companies have dual-use products. Therefore, just for his own business, Qi Yiming will Be more attentive.
The Canton Fair is organized by the foreign economic and trade departments of each province, and Shenghua Group's affiliated companies span several provinces. Therefore, the huge Shenghua Group can only display in the exhibition halls of different provinces as a single subsidiary.
Zhou Yutong, the second housekeeper of Shenghua, still followed Qi Yiming and said regretfully: "The situation will be a little different this year because companies have made products with one or two advantages. Therefore, compared with last year's Canton Fair, the number of exhibitors this year has expanded by six." times, there are also a large number of private enterprises involved. However, according to our analysis and evaluation, the products that are more dominant are mechanical and electrical products and light industrial textile products. Our company¡¯s Antong Communications is relatively competitive.¡±
Qi Yiming chuckled, feeling quite pleased with himself. Antong had already won several large orders from the beginning of spring to the beginning of summer this year. If it weren¡¯t for Saudi Arabia¡¯s weird $7.8 billion sky-high price order, it would probably be a transaction of ordinary military products. There are not as many as Antong, a communications equipment provider. The domestic construction of wireless communication networks, including the construction of a series of base stations, is already a business worth hundreds of millions of yuan, and this is just the beginning. Just completing the construction of the entire domestic market is already an industry worth tens of billions of yuan. For the time being, there are no domestic or foreign competitors in this industry, and it is completely a monopoly of Antong.
Zhou Yutong also had a smile on his face, "After receiving our promotional materials, more than twenty countries have made it clear that they will come back to inspect the communication equipment provided by Antong, and seven or eight countries are very interested in building the Internet." Antong. Tongtong is mainly engaged in these two areas of business, wireless communications and the Internet. To a certain extent, in ten to twenty years, this small company with less than a thousand employees may exceed the total of other enterprises in the entire Shenghua Group. .
Why? Because China Mobile and China Telecom did not have money to buy equipment when they were established, She gave 15% of the original shares to Antong, which means that in the field of terminal services, Antong also made money. Thinking about China Mobile's crazy daily net profit of hundreds of millions in later generations, Qi Yiming has to swallow his mouth.
The absolute majority of Shenghua is still state-owned capital. A tiny bit of shares are allocated to employees and may be allocated to the market in the future. Qi Yiming has not yet considered his own personal gains and losses.
"The bad guy" and the "dogleg" swaggered into the exhibition hall of the Canton Fair. Speaking of which, this large and bright convention and exhibition center was also related to Qi Yiming. The Guangzhou Municipal Government took a loan from Shenghua Bank, the core bank of Shenghua Group, and then invited China Railway to build the project. China Railway also used connections to get a free later design drawing from the database of Project 9527, and built this A convention and exhibition center with a typical post-modern artistic feel.
The architectural style of the 21st century was naturally high-end and classy in the 1980s when people were still satisfied with high-rise buildings. Guangzhou City felt that it was more prestigious to get such a building, and even foreign friends thought it was very good.
Modern architecture, modern layout, and some planning plans from later generations. In short, this Canton Fair began to make people feel that China is no longer the backward and poor place. Several international friends from third world countries couldn't help but ask in shock. : ¡°Has China entered the ranks of developed countries?¡±
Not to mention judging the standards of developed countries from a convention and exhibition center, it also shows a new and different side of this country.
After hanging up the exhibitors¡¯ small signs, Qi Yiming was not in a hurry to go to his company¡¯s booth, but instead wandered around the convention and exhibition center like a tourist. The route he took happened to be near the Lu Provincial Office, and he felt that a noisy wave of people was about to overturn him and Zhou Yutong.
"What's the situation?" Qi Yiming still underestimated the popularity of this Canton Fair. Not only his family, Shenghua, was gearing up, but other major companies that had experienced leap-forward development were also ambitious and wanted to do something big.
?Zhou Yutong turned around like a master, took a look, and sighed: "They are Haier and Hisense. This is not surprising. Several domestic home appliance manufacturers are basically selling like crazy. Last year, their revenue was all over the board. This year, in the second half of the year, Before the Chinese New Year, I heard that Haier was expanding its production capacity by several times, and Hisense was doing the same thing. The equipment and technology were all from the 9527 project. Speaking of which, these guys are also very powerful. , After a year of hard work, there is basically no need to rush to buy home appliances in the market. There are more than a dozen brands in the mall to choose from. "
Qi Yiming was also in a daze. He had heard his parents say that it was difficult to buy home appliances in the 1980s. Many of them were shipped in batches. To be able to buy home appliances, you had to rely on connections. Who would have thought that this would happen? In one year, these well-known home appliance brands have achieved such great success.
Zhou Yutong also said quite interestingly: "Haier and Hisense each had a net profit of 4 to 5 billion yuan last year."
It may seem like a small amount, but in fact it¡¯s an amount that you can¡¯t even imagine. The normal situation for state-owned enterprises in this era should be to suffer losses year after year or roughly break even. Two home appliance companies earn hundreds of millions a year. If this snowballs for a few years, they will probably become the first-class domestic enterprises. The Shenghua Group seems to be very prosperous. Qi Yiming has handled businesses worth less than four to five billion US dollars, but Shenghua is also very quick to throw money away.
Walking to Haier¡¯s booth, Qi Yiming found that these grandsons were really bold. Next to the booth were a bunch of American and Japanese home appliances, and even a small amount of German goods, mixed with their own products. They tore off all the trademarks, and then let the buyers choose and evaluate them until the best was left. Yes, they must be Haier.
"How come this trick seems so familiar" Qi Yiming smacked his lips, remembering that when he was in middle school, there seemed to be such an example in a certain textbook, but it was used more than ten years in advance.
And it is obvious that Haier's production and sales staff have come into contact with things from the 9527 project, because their color TV products, according to Qi Yiming, don't look out of the ordinary. They are all the big-bellied CRT picture tube TVs before LED, but compared with the current The technologies used by Sony and Toshiba on the front end should all come from the 1990s.
They even put a lot of effort into the appearance of these TVs. I don¡¯t know who made the suggestion. The same TV with a rainbow seven-color casing is also placed on the platform. The appearance design is fashionable and modern, and even has a warm pink color. TV casing.
Qi Yiming nodded and said: "This means that we have put user needs first. Hehe, this concept exists in this era, but it is not easy."
Zhou Yutong followed up: "These bells and whistles are mainly sold to developed countries. The real flagship products they want to sell should be those basic and relatively cheap products. Chinese color TVs of the same quality can basically compete with those from the United States and Japan." European products are half the price, and for many distributors, the profit margins are larger.¡±
This is absolutely correct. The reason why Haier is in chaos is because businessmen are constantly coming into the office to sign contracts with Haier people. Even the small orders of one or two thousand units are not many. Standing there The salesperson in front of the booth was tired and happy.
At this time, a senior executive from Haier came out and saw Zhou Yutong. He came up with a flattering smile and said, "Mr. Zhou, hello, how are you doing lately? Business is good."
Zhou Yutong responded with a formulaic fake smile and introduced Qi Yiming: "This is the chairman of our group, Mr. Qi Jingren."
Haier executives hurriedly shook hands as if they were meeting gods and Buddhas, and said: "Thank you very much, Director Qi, for your support. We are where we are today thanks to Director Qi's help. Haha, who didn't know that our Haier will still be here this year?" Are there any quotas for technical indicators?¡±
Qi Yiming turned to look at Zhou Yutong with a bewildered face. Zhou Yutong whispered: "Most of the key technologies and engineers of enterprises are sent from the base. Almost every item on Haier's current product line comes from us." The same goes for other companies. The technology comes from us, but we rarely give one product to two companies, so the competition for product and technology allocation between companies is quite fierce. There are quotas set by the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission every year. , In order to obtain the best products and technologies, these companies are almost going beyond the threshold of our head office.¡±
Qi Yiming shuddered and continued: "Let's separate this matter from Shenghua in the future. Well, we can't let them rely on us all the time. Our technology will eventually be used up. In the future, we will establish a As a rule, technical support is reduced every year, and we will stop supporting companies that do not have independent innovation capabilities in the long term.¡±
Zhou Yu was surprised: "I'm afraid this will bring down many companies."
"There is life,"?Human life is just the law of the jungle. "
