311 Sino-foreign joint ventures
Lin Zhenhua followed Ma Shengfan to the office and sat down, and after a few words of greeting, Ma Shengfan asked again: "By the way, Xiaolin, you haven't said it yet, what is the matter with you coming to Luzhong City this time?" It's okay, if you have any trouble, tell my brother, I'll help you deal with it. ”
Lin Zhenhua smiled: "Didn't I already say it, I came to see you." ”
"Look at me?" Ma Shengfan looked at Lin Zhenhua's face in surprise, and felt that he didn't look like he was joking, so he asked, "Why did you remember to come to see me?" ”
"Director Ma, don't hide it, I originally went to Qingdao to see Lao Cao, that young fool, Cao Shulin. He said that you were here, and that your factory had changed a little, so I came over to have a look. Lin Zhenhua said bluntly.
Hearing this, Ma Shengfan's face showed some sadness, and he sighed and said, "Alas, I made you laugh." In the past two years, the factory has encountered some difficulties, so far, the wages in the factory can barely be paid, but it is difficult to say in the future. No, the city is looking for someone to contact foreign businessmen, saying that they are going to engage in Sino-foreign joint ventures? ”
"Sino-foreign joint ventures are a good thing." Lin Zhenhua said, "Aren't all over the country engaging in Sino-foreign joint ventures now? ”
Ma Shengfan said: "Sino-foreign joint ventures are superficial scenery. People say it's a joint venture, but in fact, they want to eat you. With assets of more than 20 million yuan in such a large factory as ours, the valuation of the joint venture may not even be 10 million, and if someone pays 2 million US dollars, it will account for 51% of the equity, which is called complete control. In the future, I, the more than 1,000 workers, will go to work for the Japanese capitalists. ”
"Isn't that a loss-making deal?" Lin Zhenhua said.
Ma Shengfan said: "Losing money is only one aspect. The most important thing is that our Luji is a 50-year-old factory, and many technologies are leading in China. We now give up all of our products, ship parts from Japan, assemble them with us, and sell them as joint ventures. To put it bluntly, it is to scrap all of our factory, leaving only one shell to help them pour products. ”
"I see." Lin Zhenhua nodded. He didn't think there were too many surprises, because this kind of joint venture model is not uncommon nowadays. The state has a certain degree of protection for domestic industry, and in order to circumvent the state's trade barriers, some foreign enterprises use this fake joint venture method to swallow a domestic factory and use this shell to sell products. In this way, on the surface, the product is made in China, but in fact, it is just assembled in China. In the long run, the end result is that domestic industries become completely vassals of foreign countries.
"What is the technology of our factory?" Lin Zhenhua asked tentatively.
"Technology doesn't say anything." Ma Shengfan said proudly, "Our factory has been in existence since 1936, you calculate, how many heavy industry factories with a history of 50 years can we have in China now?" Our first gantry planer in China was produced by our factory. After the liberation, it is also a key investment in the construction of factories by the state, and now in terms of large-scale boring machines, milling machines, and stamping machines, our technology and production capacity are ranked first in China. ”
"Isn't that good, how can it be difficult?" Lin Zhenhua asked.
Ma Shengfan shook his head and said, "Alas, how can you say this." In China, our technology is already top-notch, but compared with the international market, there is still a certain distance. Now the foreign machine tool industry is developing in the direction of numerical control, and we are lagging behind in this regard. Over the years, some old domestic customers have put forward requirements to us when updating their equipment, but we have never been able to get excellent CNC machine tool products, and this time, customers have been lost. ”
Lin Zhenhua said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "This is the problem of your Ma factory director, if you don't want to make progress, lie on the merit book and eat the old book, won't you be eliminated?" ”
Ma Shengfan knew that Lin Zhenhua's words were kind, and he didn't think he was angry, but replied very seriously: "Xiaolin, you are also a manager, you should know." In the past few years, all the profits produced by our enterprises were handed over to the state, and there was no money left for technological transformation.
In the past few years, the state has allowed us to keep profits, but how can I keep profits. In my factory of more than 1,000 employees, there are more than 500 retired workers. Among the workers, there are more than 300 people over the age of 50, and when they are old, their health is not good, and the annual medical expenses alone can use up all my profits. ,
Besides, I'm such a big company, I can't help but give the employees a house, right? It takes money to build a house. There are also employee benefits, as well as various apportionments in the city, what money do you want me to use to carry out technological transformation? ”
Lin Zhenhua asked: "According to what you say, if the Japanese take over this factory, they will also take over these?" ”
"Pull it down!" Ma Shengfan said disdainfully, "How can they carry this burden." They spent more than $2 million to get a controlling stake in my factory. These more than 2 million yuan are the resettlement fees for our retired workers and laid-off workers. I, the workers, they stayed when they looked at it, and kicked it out if they didn't. People say that enterprises do not raise waste people. ”
"It's right that companies don't raise waste people." Lin Zhenhua said, "However, this is formed by history, and you can't kick people away at this time." ”
"You're so right." Ma Shengfan had a feeling of seeing a confidant, "Xiaolin, let me tell you, it's just for this matter now, and I am stiff with the city." I insisted, first, that the workers had to stay, at the very least, to give them a few years of buffer time. Second, our brand, Luji, must be kept, which is the brand of our people's industry. The joint venture is not a sale of the ancestral sect, right? ”
Lin Zhenhua was noncommittal, just smiled and asked, "Does the city agree?" ”
Ma Shengfan said: "The opinions of the city are also inconsistent, and a new deputy mayor in charge of industry, named Wang Xurui, is firmly advocating a joint venture. As for my request, the first one is that he said that these laid-off workers can be arranged to other enterprises. As for the latter one, he simply ignored it, and said that I was an old thinker, and now I want to engage in new thinking. ”
"It can't be that this kid took kickbacks from the Japanese, right?" Lin Zhenhua guessed maliciously. From Ma Shengfan's tone, he could tell that he was very disdainful of this deputy mayor Wang, so he didn't have to be polite.
Ma Shengfan said: "I don't know if I eat rebates or not, we can't talk nonsense, right?" However, I know that this guy is an official fan, and he wants to make political achievements and be promoted. Don't you know, now there are indicators for the introduction of foreign capital in various places, and if I sell my factory, even if I have introduced more than 2 million US dollars, this is called a political achievement. ”
"So, that's what he likes about more than $2 million?" Lin Zhenhua asked.
"Isn't it? Mayor Wang was born in liberal arts and knew nothing about industry. Let me tell you this, if you tell him a milling machine, he will definitely get confused with the washing machine. He didn't know what equipment industry was and what heavy industry was, and there was only one word in his eyes, money. Ah, no, it's two words, dollars. ”
"Hehe, no, foreign money is better than Chinese money, dollars and dollars, beautiful and round. Pounds sterling, British money is great. As for Mark...... Lin Zhenhua said teasingly.
"That's all carved by someone with our surname Ma." Ma Shengfan smiled and picked up. This is a joke from Mr. Ma Ji's cross talk, which was also a household name at the time.
After laughing, Lin Zhenhua got back to business, and he asked Ma Shengfan: "Director Ma, let me inquire, if you inject a sum of money into your factory, are you sure that within a few years, for example, within three or two years, you will come up with competitive CNC machine tool products?" Let's not talk about occupying the international market, at least we can occupy the domestic market and achieve import substitution. ”
Ma Shengfan looked at Lin Zhenhua with a mysterious look on his face, and somewhat guessed some of Lin Zhenhua's meaning. He pondered for a moment and said, "It depends on how much money there is." In terms of the research of CNC machine tools, we are not without a little accumulation, and we also have some graduates of Huaqing and Western Engineering who have done a little research in this area. If there are enough funds, I dare not say anything else, such as gantry milling and boring machine, floor milling and boring machine, and large stamping machine, I should be able to get it. ”
"How much do you estimate it will cost?" Lin Zhenhua continued to ask.
"Before and after, it will be more than 20 million." Ma Shengfan said, and quickly corrected after speaking, "I mean including various tooling transformation costs, if the funds are not enough, we can come up with a product first, and then slowly roll the development." ”
"That's not too much." Lin Zhenhua said, "The market for heavy machine tools is very large, and this money will be recovered in two or three years, why is no one willing to invest?" ”,
Ma Shengfan asked rhetorically: "What, Xiaolin, are you interested?" I also saw in the newspaper that your Hanhua Heavy Industry is now very profitable, and it shouldn't be difficult for you to take out 20 million, right? ”
Lin Zhenhua said: "I can't hide it, I do have such thoughts. Our company's funds are not too abundant now, mainly because we have invested a lot of money in the research and development of large fertilizer equipment, as well as the construction of refrigerator compressor production lines, and the other is to do the preliminary research of large ethylene equipment, which is also a money-swallowing machine, and tens of millions of dollars can not be seen in it. For your factory, I do have a little interest, because our group also has a machine tool company, but so far it is only the production of machine tool accessories, I want to borrow your shell, into the machine tool market. ”
"You mean, you Hanhua Heavy Industries want to make a joint venture with us?" Ma Shengfan asked.
Lin Zhenhua said: "At present, I am just saying, whether it will work or not, our company must still discuss it collectively." If you don't like to hear it, we need to evaluate it to see if it's worth the investment. ”
"I love to hear this, I love to hear this." Ma Shengfan said, "I'm happy if you're willing to evaluate." I don't dare to say that the domestic heavy machine tools are more worthy of investment than us, and you can't count a few with your fingers. What's more, you may not be able to eat it in other homes. However, I can warn you that if you want to eat us, it will be difficult. ”
"What's the difficulty?"
"You have to pass the level of Wang Xurui, he wants dollars, do you have it?" )。 )-
