Chapter 18: The Capital
Capital. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoCapital Airport.
Dragonair's Boeing 737 aircraft slowly landed on the airport's tarmac.
After Lin Qi, Yung Jian and others got off the plane, they felt that the airport was relatively empty, and the number of planes was far inferior to that of Hong Kong's Kai Tak Airport.
It is no wonder that tens of millions of dollars for a large aircraft are enough to introduce a color TV production line. Comparing the benefits of a large aircraft with the benefits of a production line, the state will definitely give more priority to the introduction of production lines.
In the waiting hall of the airport, a group of people held various banners of welcome, and after that, it was elementary school students who stepped forward to send flowers and red scarves. It was the local leaders again, who took turns to shake hands as a sign of friendship.
Of course, Lin Qi and Rong Jian's level was not enough, so it was only the city leaders who entertained them. If it is really enough, it is all received by the central leaders in person.
Even so, Lin Qi still felt flattered.
In addition, Rong Jian was also very excited, feeling that he had chosen to do business in Hong Kong was the right choice, if he chose to enter politics, how many years would he have to mix before he could mix with the officials who came to greet him at the airport. And when you get mixed up at the level over there, you have to humbly welcome overseas capitalists. After a little comparison, you will know that mixing Hong Kong businessmen in this era is more promising than mixing officialdom. After all, it is already difficult to get out of officialdom, let alone not to mix to the top, it is really not as energetic as overseas capitalists!
Lin Qi was not familiar with domestic officialdom, and he didn't think it was a big deal. But Rong Jianke knew that the officials he received were basically department-level and department-level cadres. At the local level, they are all at the level of the first and second leaders at the city and county levels.
The only thing that made Lin Qi feel concerned was that Professor Zeng from the Chinese Academy of Science also appeared in the welcoming team. After all, Lin Qi received such a degree of reception in China, and Professor Zeng's report obviously played a key role.
"Comrade Lin Qi, as early as half a year ago, you said that you hoped to set up a factory in China to produce the kind of scientific calculator that is cheaper than Japanese products. Now, we sincerely welcome you to build a factory!" Professor Zeng Dachao shook hands with Lin Qi and said, "In terms of policy, there is no problem!"
"Thank you, Mr. Zeng!" Lin Qi said self-deprecatingly, "Originally, we didn't have hope for the domestic investment environment for the time being, so we first registered a company in Hong Kong and cooperated with Mr. Rong's factory to put into production! Not long ago, the product was put into production in Hong Kong...... In Hong Kong, there are more than a few million orders a week, and Mr. Rong's factory is too busy to work three shifts! If we could have had a factory in the mainland earlier, I am afraid we would be able to receive more orders now!"
"It's not too late to invest in China!" said an official, smiling, "Mr. Rong is also a ...... from the mainland."
Rong Jian nodded and said, "A few years ago, I resolutely decided to go to Hong Kong to join my relatives, and with their help, I owned an electronics factory. But all along, I still hope to have the opportunity to serve my country. This time, if you can open an electronics factory in China and help Lin Qi OEM products, it will be considered to be a fulfillment of your wishes!"
"OEM?" the official was puzzled, "Mr. Lin has the technology, why don't you produce it yourself?"
"The market economy is a division of labor, different people, different enterprises, different good at different, the right choice according to their own ability, is a better choice. The gene of some enterprises is to engage in research and development, and to develop products and technologies. Then, I don't produce it myself, but find a reliable partner to commission production. Because, it does its own production, efficiency and cost are not necessarily better than those companies that are good at managing factories, but they distract themselves. Lin Qi explained, "Entrepreneurs who are good at managing factories do not develop products themselves, but work management, can mass produce at the fastest speed, and control costs and manage quality." OEM products for other enterprises, you can also guarantee income in drought and flood, and earn OEM fees!"
"Just like when I do R&D, if the product is popular and I make a profit, I have a variety of options. One option is to open my own factory to expand my business, but this will inevitably affect the research and development of subsequent products. There is another option, which is not to open a factory, completely entrust others to produce for me, and pay the OEM fee. The profits earned are used to develop new products. As long as we continue to develop products with market prospects, then I will definitely earn more than I can open a factory! Moreover, the products are developed by me, and I have the initiative, and I will find whoever I am willing to find OEM. In the case of equal quality, whose factory is cheap, I will give the order to whoever produces!" Lin Qi said.
"So, isn't Mr. Rong at a loss?" asked an official at the scene, puzzled.
Rong Jian smiled and didn't explain.
Lin Qi helped him explain and said, "Mr. Rong is not at a loss! He is not completely dependent on my orders, and the factory capacity is not dedicated to my products. In fact, he originally produced electronic watches, which was also profitable. However, with the same production capacity, giving me a foundry scientific calculator is far more profitable than an electronic watch. Moreover, after the gradual expansion of Mr. Yung's factory, he can choose to OEM a wider variety of products, or he can choose OEM products according to his own conditions and market conditions, so as to optimize the production of the factory. ”
"I see!" The officials present were extremely interested in the market economy, and they regarded Lin Qi and other capitalists who understood the market economy as masters.
Lin Qi couldn't help but be speechless...... To tell the truth, if we really want to understand Marxism-Leninism, we must definitely understand the market economy. The planned economy and the market economy are not opposites at all, but have great complementarity......
Using the CPU metaphor, the planned economy is a reduced instruction set, which is theoretically more efficient, but in fact it is subject to various conditions and cannot exert theoretical efficiency.
The market economy is equivalent to a complex instruction set, with a lot of repetition and inefficiency, but under the current state of technology, it is better than a reduced instruction set.
In the future, the reduced instruction set and the complex instruction set will be integrated with each other.
Either/or, that's idealistic.
Realists will not be limited by rules and regulations, how practical and how to do it!
For example, China's transformation to the path of market economy is right, and it is not a rejection of the planned economy. Sometimes, you can make a plan if you identify the right direction of development.
But in most cases, you may not be able to see the future clearly, so you can blur it a little and let the market try and make mistakes.
And the market economy is essentially thinking that everyone is not smart and will make mistakes. Economists who believe in the invisible hand of the market should be in awe of the future, forever oppose any predictions, and instead let the chaotic market choose the future for themselves.
In reality, economists are always making predictions, prescribing medicines, full of all kinds of mysterious self-confidence, and designing various mathematical models, as if the world is in his model, and the future must develop according to his plan.
But in reality, the models of the vast majority of economists are always ineffective, and there is no universal truth. If we use the experience of the United States to apply China's experience, we will find that our predictions are always wrong, and if we use the common experience of China, the United States, Japan, and other countries to predict India, we will be constantly slapped in the face by India's reality!
Lin Qi felt that the kind of self-confident economist should be beaten to death with a stick.
