Zhao Yi said to Hou Weigui: "Your most important task in 1985 is to lay out a national high-speed information network. You must cooperate with China Education Company and China Medical Company to connect all outlets across the country.
At the same time, you must also plan to lay submarine optical cables so that our country’s Internet can be connected to all parts of the world. You will formulate the specific route plan yourself. This is very important for the internationalization of the Internet.
Communication companies and software companies should choose an appropriate time to make some basic Internet protocols public so that other companies and countries can use them for free. We must make our standards into international standards. "
When Hou Weigui and Liao Xingkai heard Zhao Yi's words, they both nodded, indicating that they understood what he meant. In fact, they had been planning for this for a long time and had accumulated a momentum, just waiting for the last moment to arrive.
"Don't do it alone. You can unite with national government departments to formulate some Internet standards, first implement them within our country, and then promote them globally. This will be more convincing.
There are also some basic Internet technologies that need to be made public for free at the right time, so that the whole world can participate in the construction of Internet content. Of course, we need to seize the biggest cake in this, and we cannot make wedding dresses for others. "
Zhao Yi actually has a lot of Internet ideas. As someone who has been there, he is very familiar with it and knows what some of the big names in Internet content are. Plus, he is not short of funds, so he will definitely not let others come out on top.
It’s just that these contents require separate Internet companies to operate, because Internet companies are also highly monopolistic and cannot be gathered in one company. Even one business requires two companies to compete with each other.
After making sure that Liao Xingkai and Hou Weigui understood what he meant, the matter was over. Next, the heads of Star Power Company, Star Express Company, Shenlong Automobile Company and Future Space Technology Company made reports.
According to a report by Sun Zhaoxi, president of Shenlong Motors, in 1984, Shenlong Motors sold 5 million cars worldwide, with an average selling price of 300,000 yuan. The sales volume was higher than the previous year, but the unit price dropped.
The market share is still about 20%, which is basically the same as the previous year. This does not mean that Shenlong Motors has not worked hard, but that the limit of Shenlong Motors is here for the time being.
The annual sales revenue was 1.5 trillion yuan, the net profit margin was 15%, and the net profit was 225 billion yuan. Shenlong Automobile Company did well in this regard, remaining the same as the previous year.
"It seems that the international market has reached a certain level of saturation. It is generally difficult to increase your audience. If you want to maintain faster growth, you need to increase the development of the domestic market while maintaining the focus on the international market.
The domestic economy has been developing well in recent years. Although most people are not yet wealthy, there are some small business owners who can afford to buy cars. You need to provide some suitable car products for these groups.
The previous Lingbu cost 100,000 yuan, which I think is still too high for the country. I think you can develop a low-priced vehicle that can meet the needs of domestic people. I think the price should be at least 50,000 yuan. the following.
This car adopts the method of small profits but quick turnover, so that Chinese people can have their own car as soon as possible. Of course, the quality of the car cannot be perfunctory. It must be worthy of your brand. Don't ruin your brand and affect your entire brand image. "
Previously, Shenlong Automobile Company had been focusing on the construction of mid-to-high-end automobile brands, and even some luxury brands were selling well. With their technological advantages and new sales models, they have done well in this regard and successfully opened up the international market.
Now that it has reached a bottleneck period, it needs to expand its business scope, extend its reach into the low-end automobile field, and bring cost-effective automobile products to consumers.
Not to mention other things, employees of Zhao Yi's high-tech companies can basically have one if the price reaches less than 50,000. The sales volume in this area is not a small number.
Moreover, education, medical care, and elderly care are now basically included in the construction of the national welfare system by the state. This saves them a lot of expenses, and they no longer have to live in a hurry, and they have more money left for consumption.
Besides, Zhao started to build a large-scale highway network across the country, which provided a basis for car consumption. Otherwise, if the roads were poor, car sales would definitely be affected.
“Some consumers may not be able to spend so much money at once for car purchases, so you can work with domestic banking institutions to launch consumer loans.
Let consumers with stable jobs and decent salaries realize their desire to buy cars in advance. "
Although Zhao Yi said this, he currently does not have much hope for consumer loans. First, consumption habits will not change in the short term. Second, the current deposit interest rate is too high, resulting in loan interest rates not being too low, which is not conducive to the development of this aspect of business.
Next, Su Miao, president of Star Express Company, made a report. According to his report, in 1984, Star Express Company sold a total of 100 I100 aircraft and achieved operating income of 10 billion yuan.
Although this is not comparable to the performance in 1983, Zhao Yi is very happy because these 100 aircraft were sold by Star Express itself, not purchased by Zhao Yi's company. The two have completely different meanings.
40 of the aircraft were purchased by domestic airlines. In recent years, the national finance has had some money, so state-owned airlines have received relatively more financial support, and they also have some money to buy their own aircraft instead of relying entirely on leasing.
The other 60 aircraft were purchased by airlines from Southeast Asian countries, especially Thai Airways, which purchased the largest number. It purchased 40 of them at once, which can be said to be very wealthy.
And the good news is that after a year of testing and evaluation, Star Express's I100 has finally obtained aviation licenses from Europe and Eagle, and can sell I100 aircraft in countries in these regions.
This is not easy. It took a whole year of hard work to obtain this qualification. The Star Express Company has finally come to an end and its future is worth looking forward to.
With the safety and economy of the I100 model, it will definitely achieve good results in major European and American markets.
After all, it is impossible for an airline to struggle with profits. As long as it purchases an I100 aircraft, it means that it can achieve a profit increase of about 20%. No airline can resist this trend.
It will take a year or two for the domestic aviation market to explode. Currently, the aircraft stocks of Airline Airlines and Chenghui Aircraft Leasing Company are still being digested. When this stage passes, it will be time for the domestic aviation market to explode again.
At the same time, in September 1984, the I200 mainline passenger aircraft of Star Express Company had begun its first flight. It still needs more than a year of air testing and will not be officially launched on the market until 1986 at the earliest.
"It is not easy for you to obtain these 100 orders. It shows that your aircraft has been recognized by other buyers. I hope to continue our efforts in the future and strive to win more orders.
Coupled with the European and American airworthiness certificates you have obtained, it shows that your aircraft sales business is about to get on track, and the future is worth looking forward to.
In order to avoid unpredictable troubles in the future, I think you should focus on the research, development and production of civil aircraft in the future.
The non-civilian aircraft business will be separated and a separate aircraft R&D and production company will be established, which will be beneficial to your development of the international civil market. " Zhao Yi said.
Hearing Zhao Yi's words, Su Miao had no dissatisfaction. Now the research and development expenses of military aircraft have taken up most of the research and development expenses of Star Express Company.
There are several military aircraft under development, which can be said to be a bit unbearable for the already not wealthy Star Express Company.
Moreover, these military aircraft projects have not been able to be turned into physical objects, so they cannot create profits. If things go on like this, it will be a huge drag on Star Express Company.
Su Miao couldn't be happier to be able to separate this business now. Although the prospects for military aircraft are also good, the specifics are unclear, but the pressure now is real.
According to a report by He Hanlin, President of Star Power Company, Star Power Company achieved annual revenue of 270 billion yuan in 1984, the majority of which came from orders from Shenlong Automobile Company, followed by engine orders from other domestic automobile companies.
As for the orders from Star Express Company and Future Space Technology Company, although the unit price is high, the quantity is limited, and the amount of money earned is really not much.
As for ship power, since several ship power systems have just been successfully developed but have not yet been put into actual use, there are currently no orders in this area.
The business development in this area will depend on the performance of Haiyan Shipping Company. If Haiyan Shipping Company can get enough orders, then the prospects in this area are worth looking forward to.
At the same time, according to Zhao Yi's instructions, they are also developing ship nuclear power systems to prepare for future military ships. However, these are still in the secret development stage and are difficult to disclose publicly.
In addition, there are conventional power systems for military use. The research and development in this area is also being carried out secretly, but the progress is much faster than that of nuclear power systems. It is expected that the research and development of all types of power systems will be completed in another year. .
Star Power achieved a net profit of 81 billion yuan for the whole year, with a net profit margin of 30%, which was 10% lower than the previous year. This was mainly due to the fact that Star Power invested a lot more money in research and development during this year, and the engine Margins also fell slightly.
As for Future Space Technology Company, after Liu Xingde's report, it was basically a capital-guaranteed operation. Zhao Yi was already mentally prepared for this. It was really difficult to make big money in this area.
If future space technology companies can operate at a loss, they are already doing very well. Most of the companies around the world are operating at a loss and are betting on future prospects.
When he established Future Space Technology Company before, Zhao Yi was already prepared to provide continuous subsidies. Now he is very happy to be able to operate at a guaranteed capital.
As long as future space technology companies can cultivate enough aerospace talents, when the time comes, Zhao Yi will accelerate the development of the space field and build the space field into a profitable industry.
It’s just that the time is still unclear. According to Zhao Yi’s idea, things on the ground must be straightened out first. When the economy reaches a certain bottleneck period, the space mode will be turned on, and the effect will be better and there will be a lot less energy. interference. (End of chapter)
