Chapter 244: A Coup d'état from afar
Through Jiang Xinwei's efforts, he completed the relevant patent application for the microprocessor, and also preliminarily completed the relevant design of a pager, and sent the relevant PCB circuit board to Yiyang Blue Sky Electronics Company for processing.
Zeng Hetao has established a set of precision PCB circuit board processing production line in Blue Sky Electronics Company. After receiving Jiang Xinwei's trial production order, he immediately started production and soon handed over the processed products to Jiang Xinwei.
Waiting for the first batch of microprocessor samples sent by the German company Defineon, Jiang Xinwei began the assembly and debugging of the pager non-stop.
Time flies very quickly during the busy period, and before you know it, it is mid-August 1991.
During this time, Gu Changfeng and Gao Cong found the production technology and production equipment related to LCD screens in Shunlì, Japan, as Jiang Xinwei expected.
Also affected by the Japanese economic crisis and the stock market crash, this small manufacturer that relies on large companies and relies on providing LCD screens to large electronics companies is in a situation where no one orders, seeing that the equipment is idle day by day, and the workers have nothing to do day by day but continue to ask for wages, the company's senior management has no choice but to sell the equipment in their hands.
In fact, they still have a lot of concerns about selling equipment to Gu Changfeng and Gao Cong, because these equipment were imported from the United States only a few years ago, and even American experts only returned to China a few days ago because of the shutdown of the factory. They knew that this kind of equipment was not allowed to be exported to Huaxia, but they couldn't stand the trouble of paying wages and equipment without orders and profits.
At the same time, the company also has many technicians who are willing to go to Huaxia with the equipment, on the one hand to operate and maintain these equipment, and on the other hand, to teach relevant skills to Huaxia workers.
Gu Changfeng and Gao Cong did not enter Zi'an City or Yiyang City in Hudong Province and their Japanese-related technicians, or even entered Hudong Province, but chose to create a zào foundation in Huhai City.
Obviously, this is the idea that someone in the Gu family came up with for Gu Changfeng: not only because Huhai City is the most technologically developed place and the most skilled workers in China, but also the place with the largest demand for high-tech products, they believe that LCD screens will be able to open up the market here in the future.
This is naturally similar to what Jiang Xinwei expected, and the Gu family is preparing to take this company for themselves. Setting up a factory in Huhai City can reduce their dependence on Jiang Xinwei to some extent, and once they find a larger demand market in Huhai City, they will be able to gain the upper hand when negotiating with Jiang Xinwei in the future.
Jiang Xinwei, who had been prepared for a long time, of course turned a blind eye to this, and he tacitly agreed that Gu Changfeng and their company were still affiliated with Feixun Technology Company, named Feixun Accessories Company, and one million US dollars were also paid to the account of the branch as soon as possible and paid to the Japanese company.
To tell the truth, Jiang Xinwei was also pleased with Gu Changfeng's courage -- should I say the Gu family -- to be able to purchase equipment to prepare for a new factory to set up a company, instead of a joint venture with the Japanese, that is to say, although this caused a shortage of funds at the beginning of the enterprise and had to raise money everywhere, but in the future, it can reduce a lot of troubles and put all the profits earned into his own pocket, instead of paying part or even most of the shares to the Japanese.
It is better to fall in the pocket of the country than in the pocket of the gringo.
It is also the strength of the Gu family, Gu Changfeng quickly found an electronic production plant similar to the LCD screen in Huhai City, and soon talked with them about the conditions of the joint venture: Feixun Technology Company invested in equipment, technology, and market, and the other party invested in factories, land, and technical personnel, accounting for 85 percent and 15 percent of the shares respectively. Jiang Xinwei's foreign-funded company, Feixun Technology Company, has an absolute controlling stake.
Compared with other foreign joint ventures, Gu Changfeng not only took a lot of advantages, but also greatly simplified the procedures, and it only took five days, which surprised many people. However, not too many people questioned it, after all, some local officials in Huhai City have also turned to Feixun Technology Co., Ltd., hoping that the company will set up a telephone processing factory in Huhai City, let alone establish a joint venture factory here.
In their view, it is normal for the relevant departments of Shanghai City to give some additional preferential treatment to Feixun Technology Company, and it is even more appropriate to simplify the procedures for setting up a joint venture factory. Except for a few people such as Jiang Xinwei, no one knows what is greasy in it, and they don't know that Jiang Xinwei's Feixun Technology Company is just a cover for the Gu family, and the whole thing is operated by the Gu family at all.
As long as the Gu family clarifies the preliminary preparations of the enterprise and finds a way to avoid the policy, they will repay the one million US dollars lent to them by Jiang Xinwei with interest, and then make the company independent, without any affiliation with Jiang Xinwei and Feixun Technology Company, nor any joint and several liability.
Little did they know that the next year, in 1992, after a bigwig's visit to the South, the state would relax its policy on private companies and allow privately owned businesses with more than seven employees. In the future, there will be no need to run private enterprises openly and honestly under the banner of foreign capital.
Seeing their movements so fast, Jiang Xinwei was naturally very happy in his heart: how good it was to only lend one million dollars for a period of time to solve his troubles about the LCD screen. Eliminating the constraints of key spare parts and gaining the friendship of the Gu family, it can really be described as a complete merit.
Now that there is a microprocessor, there is no bottleneck of the LCD screen, and Zeng Hetao's precision PCB circuit board processing production line, what is in front of Jiang Xinwei is a smooth road: he can start preparing for the peak of pagers that will break out in three years!
If you have to talk about losses, it is the loss of Gu Changfeng, a senior manager.
But this loss is simply insignificant to Jiang Xinxu. He believes that his company can cultivate hundreds of people with Gu Changfeng's ability in the process of growth, after all, Gu Changfeng does not have much specialness, and he did not learn much real talent during his study abroad, that is, his horizons may be broader than average.
Moreover, Gu Changfeng stayed in the company, so that Su Dingyu still had an unnatural feeling, and Gu Changfeng had chased Leng Lan again, and he also hoped to become boyfriend and girlfriend with Wen Nianci, which made the senior management of Feixun Technology Company, including Jiang Xinwei, a little uncomfortable, and let him start his own company independently, which can be described as a lot of wins with one stone.
As for the two devils Gao Cong who returned from Japan because of the collapse of the owner, Jiang Xinwei didn't feel much pity, the production line he was familiar with was just a production line that assembled the current simple game consoles in Japan, which didn't have much scientific and technological content. His level of knowledge is similar to that of the international students and foreigners that Zeng Zhizhi helped him recruit in Europe, and at most he is experienced.
Therefore, he didn't care too much about Gao Cong's future stay in Gu Changfeng's company and Feixun Technology Company.
On this morning, Jiang Xinwei was flipping through a thick instrument and instrument instruction given to him by the German company Defineon, looking for equipment to test the performance of the pager, and thinking about how to place an order, Director Wei hurriedly walked in and said, "Mr. Jiang, an urgent telegram." ”
Jiang Xinwei was stunned for a moment, dropped the book in his hand, stretched out to take the telegram handed by Director Wei, and asked unconsciously: "How can there be an urgent telegram?...... , where did it come from?"
Director Wei said: "The Soviet Union is from Moscow. ”
Jiang Xinwei didn't seem to hear Director Wei's answer, his eyes swept at a glance, and then he exhaled softly, and said to himself, "Is it August 20 today?...... It's really coming. ”
Director Wei looked at him puzzled, glanced at the telegram, and couldn't help asking, "What happened to them, will the people there be safe?"
Jiang Xinwei smiled and said, "It's nothing, it is estimated that today's news on the TV station will be broadcast soon." …… , why didn't you call me but use the way of taking a telegram, it really scared me. ”
Then, he said, "It's all right. Director Wei, you go get busy first. ”
Director Wei walked out in disbelief.
The telegram said that the situation in Moscow was chaotic, that the president had been replaced, and that the vice president was now inaugurated, but many senior officials did not approve of this behavior, believing that the vice president was a coup d'état. Many foreign bankers, fearing a civil war in the Soviet Union, were in a state of panic and planned to close their banks from the Soviet Union, while they themselves were booking plane tickets home, preparing to return at least until the situation in the Soviet Union stabilized.
As a traverser, Jiang Xinwei naturally knew about the 819 incident, and later generations did define this incident as a coup d'état at the top of the Soviet Union. Seeing that the Soviet Union was changing day by day in a direction that they did not want to develop, the traditional Soviet leaders such as the vice president were very dissatisfied with the current president, and they took advantage of the president's vacation on the Black Sea to announce that the president was seriously ill and could not serve on the council, and the presidency was replaced by the vice president.
Such an event could have changed history and could even reverse the collapse of the Soviet Union in the future, but because of the indecision of the vice president and others, they did not take measures against their hostile forces, but only announced some of their own policies on television, and even the president who was on vacation was not placed under house arrest, let alone taken measures against others. As a result, their hostile forces took advantage of their weakness and sent troops to designate these people as rebels and arrest them one by one.
The coup d'état failed in just three days, the president was reinstated, and the Soviet Union was not only not reversed, but instead of saving the Soviet empire, the coup d'état had the opposite effect and hastened its disintegration.
