315 [Changhong in the mobile phone industry]
The secretary and head of Yangpu District, after hearing that Shenzhou Technology Company had sales of 135 million yuan in half a month, and offered to pay taxes normally and only carry out symbolic tax reductions, they all thought that there was something wrong with their ears.
And the capitalists who don't pay enough taxes?
What a model of patriotism!
The secretary and the district head immediately took people to inspect Shenzhou Science and Technology in batches.
Seeing the dilapidated old factory building and the low company administrative building, they almost asked if they had gone wrong. Just such a newly opened broken company, can have sales of 135 million yuan in half a month?
Fortunately, after walking into the production workshop, the conditions inside have changed greatly, and the interior decoration has cost a lot of money, which is clean, neat and orderly...... It's a bit of a high-tech look.
If you have money, you must expand the scale, build buildings and build houses, and the dilapidated factory building is really unsightly.
Comrade Secretary promised on the spot to grant 20 acres of land to Shenzhou Science and Technology, 180,000 yuan per mu, which is equivalent to giving it away for free. Even the secretary said: "Don't build your building too high, just 20 floors." Don't learn from the Giant Group to build the tallest building in Asia, if you have money, you can use it to expand production, open up markets, research and development technology, build factories and introduce equipment. Strive to become bigger and stronger, to be the largest in the whole sea, the largest in the country, and the largest in Asia!"
It's not that the consciousness of the secretary is too high, but that the Giant Building and the Xiangshan Municipal Government have become a laughing stock.
Song Weiyang immediately said: "We can introduce some supporting enterprises in Changyang Valley High-tech Park to form an industrial scale effect, and strive to build Changyang Valley into the largest mobile phone and accessories production base in the country." The production cost of enterprises has been greatly reduced, and the district government can also increase tax revenue, which is a great thing for the country and the people. ”
"Well, Boss Song has a long-term vision, and I will let people follow up and ensure that the green light is given all the way in terms of policy. Comrade Secretary said.
Comrade Secretary left, Comrade District Chief came again, and Song Weiyang asked for leave to accompany him again.
The frenzied report by the official media in Yangpu soon attracted the city's leaders, followed by the official media of the entire Shenghai to compete for publicity. In these news, Song Weiyang has become a first-class patriotic entrepreneur, taking the initiative to pay taxes according to the regulations, and does not want policy reductions and exemptions, how can this not be a special article?
In the next few years, whenever there are foreign guests visiting, the leaders of the district will inevitably pull people to Changyang Valley for a walk. All the leaders are like a treasure to Shenzhou Technology, pointing to the plant and machines: what technology we use, what is our shipment, what is our profit, and what patents have we obtained.
In a word, how awesome the enterprises in our district are!
James McGregor, who worked in China for many years, later wrote about Chinese society in the '90s in "A Billion Consumers": "Dealing with the pervasive corruption in China is the most irritating issue for all foreign businessmen. Corruption can spread from the top management of a company, all the way to all employees, and to officials at all levels of government. ”
Many places attract investment and recruit enterprises, but they scare the enterprises away, or simply eat and take cards to kill the enterprises.
But Shenzhou Technology Company does not have this kind of problem, and it is really a green light all the way. Which small bureaucrat dares to come here to stretch out his hand, and when he turns around, he will be chopped off by the big leaders, because the tax amount of Shenzhou Science and Technology is too large, so big that the local leaders have to make a living.
Of course, Song Weiyang also has a strong eye, fire protection, public security, electric power, women's federation, disabled persons' federation, taxation...... All departments, when they should be offered, abide by the basic unspoken rules, and be harmonious from top to bottom.
……
Let's talk about UTStarcom's side, the bearded Wu Ying was furious, grabbed his subordinates and scolded wildly, and beat the board of directors in the United States again.
PHS business should have been his!
It's those bastards who have shit in their brains, and they don't think about PHS, saying that PHS technology is outdated.
Historically, Wu Ying fought hard to obtain 1 million yuan in funds, and could only carry out PHS business pilot in Yuhang District. It took another full year of busy work before the board of directors of the headquarters approved the expansion of the investment scale, and it was not until 1999 that PHS was truly developed.
Now Song Weiyang has invested 30 million yuan as soon as he gets started, and he also asked Citibank for a loan of 15 million, and PHS has reached another business scale at the end of 1998.
But it doesn't matter, anyway, Wu Ying was also unloaded and killed by the donkey.
Historically, Wu Ying has relied on PHS business to make UTStarcom one of the top ten telecom providers in the world. However, because he wanted to increase his shareholding (taking shares for nothing as the CEO of China), he was directly kicked out of UTStarcom by the headquarters, and this fierce man on the same level as Shuangma was discouraged.
Now not only Wu Ying is angry, but also Nokia, Ericsson, Motorola, Huawei, ZTE and other domestic and foreign manufacturers are in a state of remorse.
The telecommunications department has asked them to cooperate, but unfortunately they can't look down on it, and the fat sent to their mouths has been spit out.
Who knew that PHS's business could develop so rapidly.
In less than two months, PHS's shipments have reached 100,000 units!
For a week after New Year's Day, PHS engaged in New Year's preferential activities, 5888 buy a mobile phone and give 588 phone bills; buy two at one time, and each one will directly give 888 phone bills.
This activity drove consumers crazy, and many people called their friends to buy mobile phones together.
In addition, the business of five more cities was opened, and in just seven days, PHS's national sales soared by more than 40,000 units, and the weekly sales exceeded 200 million during the event!
One week, 200 million!
The three major foreign mobile phone brands are all smearing PHS, and there are negative news about PHS everywhere, taking advantage of the shortcomings of bad signal to black.
At the same time, some people wrote to the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications to frantically complain, and even to the point of endangering the development of China's telecommunications industry.
The complaint letter was actually written with reasonable evidence, saying that PHS is a backward technology and will be eliminated. If PHS relies on cheap tariffs to occupy the market, there will be the terrible evil result of bad money driving out good money, resulting in the slow development of China's communication technology and the growing gap with the world.
The letter of complaint quickly paid off, and the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications clearly stipulated that PHS was not allowed to open services in the four cities of Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai and Guangzhou, which are the four largest markets for mobile communications services.
If it weren't for the support of the telecommunications department, it is estimated that PHS would have been cut directly by the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications.
The real crisis of PHS will have to wait for ten years, until the arrival of the 3G era, and the government has decided to allocate the frequency band of PHS to 3G.
Although Shenzhou Technology has not made its financial report public, and people do not know the specific sales data, the long queue for the purchase of the telecommunications bureau has explained everything.
Nokia, Ericsson and Motorola mobile phones have been reduced in price across the board, and Nokia has dropped the hardest, and the old model has dropped directly to 5500 yuan. Until the summer of 1998, the new Nokia 5110 (the world's first mobile phone that can play snake) was officially launched, and the old model was reduced to 4800 yuan a piece.
As a result, Nokia surpassed Motorola and established its dominant position in the Chinese mobile phone market.
PHS also followed up in time, with a price of 4888 yuan and a free 888 yuan phone bill.
Consumers are cheering, China's mobile phone market has officially entered the era of 4000 yuan, and they can't wait for the price war of mobile phone manufacturers to fight harder.
Some people call PHS "the Changhong of the mobile phone industry", the price butcher!
