When'Shengguang' engages in motor tricycles, all the spare parts can be basically done in Tianyang City. But when Zhou Qingfeng wanted to expand construction machinery and build automobile production lines, he immediately found that it was unexpectedly difficult.
A car is roughly composed of 10,000 parts, and each different part means at least one manufacturer behind it. If'Holy Light' wants to get all the parts and accessories, the difficulty is no less than to rebuild the industrial chain.
At this time, the National Industry Information Network just established by the "Holy Light" came into play.
On the way to the city guest house, Xiao Jinlang briefed Fujita about the group's process of issuing orders for spare parts to the whole country through the information network.
"The domestic manufacturing industry is relatively scattered and the technical level is not high, but the advantages are complete.
Other domestic auto factories often deploy resources within their own systems, and we use the coordination of the imperial capital ministries and commissions to use foreign exchange to open purchases across the country. "
Xiao Jinlang was full of emotion when he talked about this network. "Shengguang" has spread so many stalls, but Zhou Qingfeng is most concerned about the information network, and has invested a lot of manpower and material resources in the construction.
"Shengguang Economic Information Weekly" was popularly welcomed after it went public, and subscriptions are available all over the country. Because'Holy Light' will make great efforts to verify and verify the published information, and the reliability is extremely high.
The emergence of "Weekly" has greatly reduced the living space of the fallen masters of all walks of life, and also greatly reduced the operating costs of enterprises. For many companies, this is a must-read economic publication, and it can really make money.
The timeliness of weekly publications is still a bit short, and it seems too slow for logistics and other information that needs to be updated every day.
Zhou Qingfeng's ambitions are still advancing further. His goal is the Internet. Before the Internet, he could use fax machines and telephones to make do with it.
But this kind of basic information network investment is in the order of hundreds of billions, and it must be completed by the power of the state. Zhou Qingfeng can only provide some key components to reduce construction costs and let the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications take the lead.
The Internet only started in 1992, and its scale was very small.
Fujita could not imagine the existence of such a network. He frowned and thought, but soon he asked in surprise: "You are equivalent to cooperating between different consortia?"
It is also quite appropriate to understand that the consortium belongs to different state-owned and private enterprise groups.
Xiao Jinlang nodded, "'Holy Light' needs an engine, a tire, a transmission, a car body, and countless spare parts.
The group splits the products it designed, builds a database on the computer, publicizes its needs, and sends the best engineers to inspect the factory in exchange for the best suppliers and products.
We put the automobile factory in Wuhan, which is to take advantage of the convenient transportation in Wuhan. The industry chain is still under construction, and there are at least two years left before it is completed. Therefore, the "Holy Light" currently produces the most tricycles. "
After Xiao Jinlang finished speaking, he laughed at himself. Who would have thought that the "Holy Light" business is so big, but the actual production is still motorized three-wheelers
Furthermore, the "Shengguang Car" pieced together by the domestic industrial chain, although the prototype car has not yet come out. But the knowledgeable people all shook their heads when they found out.
The configuration of this car is bad enough, and the cost is dyingly expensive. Not to mention the comparison with foreign cars, it is also far behind the domestic Santana.
For example, foreign cars are equipped with ABS and anti-lock braking systems as standard. However, there is currently no relevant technology in China, and it will not start until two thousand years later. Foreign countries do not sell technology, only finished products, which clearly means to slaughter fat sheep.
But...
"I understand." Fujita nodded, "The group's approach is quite practical. Once the industrial chain is completed and the internal circulation is completed, the manufacturing level of the entire country will be improved.
Therefore, the president will definitely continue to invest and continue to hire more engineering personnel to strengthen the capabilities of suppliers and develop the required technologies, including Japanese employees. "
When it comes to'Japanese employees', Fujita also feels embarrassed. He asked in a low voice: "How many Japanese are currently employed by the group?"
Xiao Jinlang said: "The original plan for this year was 1,000 people. But the negotiations with Mitsui last month went very well, and it will definitely exceed 2,000 by the end of the year.
Fujita's mood is complicated. Now the number of suicides in Japan due to bankruptcy is in the hundreds, and it is a way to survive to work at the "Holy Light".
But the more so, the faster the'Holy Light' climbs the technology tree. President Zhou is really eclectic in employing people and is very willing to spend money.
When he arrived at the city guest house, Old Xiao asked Fujita what he wanted to see in Tianyang
Fujita replied very clearly, "I want to understand how the'Holy Light' has developed so much in a short period of time?"
"Then you must go to the countryside. Mr. Zhou's roots are in the countryside." Xiao Jinlang gave advice.
Rural area
A rapidly expanding multinational company based in the countryside
Xiao Jinlang could see that Fujita had doubts but only smiled, letting the other party choose the itinerary. He could only come to greet him. He couldn't accompany him all the time. He left with the translator driver and a car.
Fujita checked into the guest house and asked his own translator the same question.
The translator said with certainty: "Zhou always has money. He is really rich. Now Tianyang builds houses and repairs roads. Basically, it is the money from Mr. Zhou. Even if the city wants to do some projects, he has to borrow from him. It's."
"How does the president get rich?" Fujita asked.
The translation is a bit hesitating, and it took a long time to utter a paragraph, "Zhou is always able to bear it, people have overseas connections, and they know people from above. The smuggling business of the group is very big and it is very profitable."
In the eyes of Tianyang people, Zhou Qingfeng is still the smuggler who desperately opened the "Harmony Supermarket" last year and dumped second-hand home appliances at low prices.
For example, today the home appliance market in Yang and surrounding counties and cities is filled with the "Harmony System". Half of the households have large items such as TVs, refrigerators, and washing machines. The remaining half are also ready to buy, because making money is easier.
Due to the saturation of the market, several Harmony Supermarkets have been closed in Tianyang City. Fortunately, the domestic market is too big. Recently, Nanchang, Wuhan, and Hanzhong cities are enjoying a frenzy of home appliance sales.
Fujita knows something about smuggling business. But he would rather believe in the profitability of overseas trade than in smuggling alone to support the expansion of the "Holy Light".
Fujita borrowed the interpreter and asked the driver the same question.
The driver attached to him was very nervous, sweating on his forehead and gave his own answer: "Zhou is brave and is not afraid to offend people. Go to the battery factory of the Municipal Machinery Factory and you will know that the factory with thousands of people has not been laid off. Half of the original.
The salary offered by the new factory is high, but the control is strict. There are many people who can't bear to quit their jobs altogether, but they can't find such a high salary when they resign, and they want to go back.
Many people in the city made troubles because of layoffs, and it would be over early to replace others. But Mr. Zhou not only didn't hurt a single hair, he also got stronger and stronger. The people still praise him, which is really admirable. "
The driver gave a thumbs up after speaking, and said in summary: "Zhou is always a ruthless person. Only ruthless people can do things these days. So the'Holy Light' can go to the present."
Different people have different opinions, and there are still big differences. Fujita is even more curious—what exactly has the'Holy Light' developed into
