Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Two major orders have been finalized in succession from the United States and Saudi Arabia. All military industrial companies and the military will be "full of fat" for at least five years. With the astonishing profits and manufacturing base of China's military equipment, it is completely beyond the comprehension of ordinary people. These two orders plus  At the same time, we can earn at least more than 10 billion US dollars in net profit.  Think about it, the PLA has more than 2 million US dollars in the military, and the military expenditure for a whole year is only 8.5 billion US dollars. The money earned can cover the defense budget for another year.

    Naturally, there is no need to repeat expenditures in the national defense budget. The military is currently in a state of endless surplus surplus. It basically spends on raising troops and operating operations, plus a small amount of expenditure to stimulate domestic demand. The bulk of it still has to be invested in various research institutions for technological development.  At this time, the main source of armament design and technology is naturally the base combat laboratory, but even mastering many technologies is not an easy task.  Neither Qi Yiming nor the military was so stupid as to ignore the improvement of their country's technical capabilities because of the existence of the base.

    China¡¯s current international trade is a bit like Russia and Ukraine in the 1990s. More than ten percent of exports are occupied by military products. This is also caused by the fact that Chinese manufacturing has not yet fully opened up the world market.  Therefore, the senior officials of the Chinese Empire, including Qi Yiming, worked hard to promote the country's early reopening and obtain better foreign trade conditions.

    ?? Military products are the best manifestation of a country¡¯s science and technology, and may also be the most eye-catching manifestation. If a country manufactures arms well, it means that the country¡¯s industrial capabilities are good enough, and the manufacturing of other products is more secure.  Due to their strict requirements, military products are usually considered to be a guarantee of quality, so many businesses like to use slogans such as "military quality" when advertising.

    "The Chinese arms are manufactured and sold well. This is not only an advertisement for its own arms, but also an advertisement for the entire country's industrial products.  After a series of good news, at this year's Canton Fair, although Qi Yiming did not attend the exhibition in person, he still led the exhibition of products from all industries, and finally achieved a huge transaction volume of US$21 billion.

    "Among the goods traded at the Canton Fair, just like last year and the year before, the best-selling products are our electronic products, especially the launch of our latest laptop computer, which is lighter and more portable, causing a sensation in the industry, including Europe and the United States.  Manufacturers are ordering like crazy, and even Japanese manufacturers who have previously rejected our electronic products have also purchased a batch. It seems that manufacturers such as Toshiba and IHM can no longer survive in the face of our massive offensive."

    Qi Yiming smiled slightly after listening to Zhou Yutong's report. China is already the undisputed leader in the three industries in this dimension. After entering the personal computer field in 1922, domestic brands Lenovo, Tsinghua Unisplendour, Inspur, Shenzhou, etc. have all been taken over by Qi Yiming.  This evil guy was brought out.  Because of the base's extensive technical support and the hiring of batches of high-level business talents, these brands have already established their own image as an upstart in the industry.  An average of 260,000 computers are exported every year. This is only in the early stages of this industry. If the real Internet era and information age begin, it will not be a problem for China, which is stuck in advance, to sell hundreds of millions of computers every year.

    In addition to computer products, communication products are no less popular.  Because it holds patented technologies for global wireless communications and the Internet, countries that want to access it basically have to ask Chinese companies to help, and even the United States is no exception.  Relying on this alone, the two major communication equipment service providers have already made a lot of money. However, Cisco, which was able to resist it by relying on U.S. policies, is now simply unable to reach the heels of the two major Chinese companies.

    Products such as personal mobile phones and landline phones are equally easy to sell, as are household appliances such as washing machines, televisions, air conditioners, and cameras. The impact of cheap and high-quality products on the global market has aroused the vigilance of many countries, and even one  A tariff barrier is brewing. If the road to resumption of tariffs cannot be broken through, the great market will be handed over to others. This is why Qi Yiming is so concerned about the negotiations on resumption of customs.

    Products such as automobiles, ships, and machinery are still tepid, but domestically produced cars have slowly spread their tentacles into European and American countries, and have begun to compete with Nissan in the mid- to low-end family car market.  The yen has been maintaining an appreciation trend, and the price advantage of domestically produced cars has been revealed. In the eyes of many foreigners, there is not much difference between Chinese cars and Japanese cars, but Chinese cars are more fashionable in terms of appearance design.

    In some third world countries, Qi Yiming also encouraged automobile companies to actively go deeper. He used the domestic route for foreign transactions. These automobile companies often went to the government departments of those countries with prices that were difficult to refuse and let them go.  They purchase official vehicles.  When Chinese cars driven by government departments run on the roads of these third-world countries, they will soon be recognized by the local people, and it will also trigger a trend of people buying Chinese cars.

    If you want to make money, don't be afraid of hardship. Chinese marketing representatives are working hard in developing countries such as Southeast Asia, Africa, and Latin America, even enduring acclimatization, cultural conflicts, and extortion by warlords, corrupt governments, just to make more money.  , making the country more prosperous and stronger.

    After all, the background of various mechanical products is still shallow.Compared with American, European and Japanese products, these products still make consumers suspicious.  Buyers of these mechanical products are of course different from ordinary consumers. Impulsive consumption rarely occurs. What they want is reputation and quality. Of course, price is also taken into consideration. They still do not trust Chinese products, but they hope that there will be  After several trial users have used it, they will be told whether the Chinese machine is easy to use or not.

    Maybe the current Chinese machinery is not as sophisticated as those made in Germany, but it is still very competitive compared to Japan at the same time.  In the 1980s, Japanese machinery was plundering the American and European markets. Basically, in almost every field of production, Japanese products encountered resistance from Chinese products, which caused them great headaches.

    Of course, although the amount sold is not as high as that of electronic products, the largest volume is still various light industrial products.  When the blueprint for national industrial modernization was first drawn up, some people proposed to build a heavy industrial country like the Soviet Union, while others proposed to build a high-tech power, but Qi Yiming laughed it off and didn't care.  China is a huge country with too many people, so everything must be done comprehensively.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ?????????????????????????????????????????: A bunch of computers, cars, and heavy machinery are built. Who can sell them to without a market?  The major domestic state-owned enterprises that Qi Yiming is currently focusing on supporting are basically in a state of subsistence and clothing, and they are definitely not really wealthy.  Because it is very difficult to break into these traditional industrial fields. If you sell simple semi-finished products, such as steel and aluminum ingots, it is still easy to sell. But when it comes to the final product, it will not take more than ten years just to develop the market.  The merits are absolutely untenable.  What did factories across the country eat and drink at that time?

    ???????Building industry is definitely not something that a few big leaders can do by patting their heads and patting their chests, nor can it be done by a few young people shouting about the four modernizations and making it bigger and stronger.  From technical difficulty to product design, marketing, brand management and cultivation after entering the market, to the social effects that can be produced at a larger level, these were all considerations that Qi Yiming needed to make at the beginning.

    At that time, Qi Yiming was very clear about what kind of industrialized country he wanted to build, with more light industry blooming, a few leading heavy industry companies, integration of industry, academia and research, and a focus on technological innovation and product replacement.

    China has a huge population and needs to carry out multiple rounds of urbanization. A large number of working people need a career, and it is obvious that heavy industry and high-tech industries cannot provide enough employment opportunities.  Only a large number of light industries can provide hundreds of millions of jobs to workers, provide them with wages and opportunities to change their living standards.  There is an absolute positive correlation between social stability and the country's prosperity and people's living standards. Only when you have a job can you have income.  In addition, the light industry, which is related to people's most basic clothing, food, housing and transportation, directly determines the convenience and affluence of people's lives.  Is it the same if I am full and can only eat Yuliang and pickles as if I have dozens of non-staple food options?  When it comes to dressing the same, can a gray old military uniform be the same as a trendy cotton T-shirt after changing seasons?

    Therefore, in Qi Yiming¡¯s understanding, in industrial reforms with base assistance, the development order of light industry should even take precedence over heavy industry and other high-tech industries.  As a result, textile factories, food processing factories, furniture factories, ceramic factories, toy manufacturing factories, small commodity processing factories, etc. that have sprung up in recent years have not only solved the employment problem, but also pushed the country from a poor and backward country like a rocket.  Moving towards a middle-income country at an excessively high speed.

    The rapid development of light industry not only satisfies the domestic demand market that has never been seen in thousands of years, but also creates a large number of products that can be exported, creating convenience for the country to earn foreign exchange and accumulate original capital.

    "my country's exports of light industrial products have maintained explosive growth in recent years. It is unimaginable that external demand will be so great. In the first half of this year, more and more European and American companies have outsourced their production bases to our country. Textiles and garments are still the most important products in our country. Outstanding state. According to the authoritative forecast of the National Development and Reform Commission, it is estimated that around 1995, more than 70% of the world's ready-made clothes will be made in my country. By then, if we don't do it, people around the world may have no clothes to wear. "

    Qi Yiming chuckled after hearing this. Wasn't this the world he was in before he traveled through time?  Europe has repeatedly imposed retaliatory tariffs and conducted anti-dumping investigations on Chinese textiles. But if China really stops selling clothes, they will have nothing to wear.  From the lowest-end street stall goods to internationally renowned brands, they are basically all produced in China.

    There is nothing wrong with becoming the world's factory. The key is that workers (Chinese) in the factory can also enjoy the best living conditions.  This is also the highest goal he has been striving for.
