Chapter 229: Several "Firsts" of NB Electric
The change is very big, and the old man is very relieved, but at the same time he seems a little anxious.
Compared with his first southern tour, he saw more and talked less, and he hardly stopped speaking after he arrived in the SAR, and what he said most was that the reform process was too slow and the pace was too small.
As soon as he got into the car with the support of his two daughters, he said in the Xichuan dialect to Deputy Secretary General Chen, Standing Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, and Vice Mayor Wang, who accompanied him: "From the very beginning, there were different opinions on the establishment of the Special Economic Zone, and I was worried about whether or not to engage in capitalism. The achievements of the SEZ in construction have clearly answered those who have such and such worries, and the surname of the SEZ is 'She', not 'capital'! ”
He was extremely angry at those who criticized the SEZ, and at their behavior of reversing black and white and confusing the facts, which finally relieved the permanent secretary, who had been nervous.
"Reform and opening up should be bolder, have the courage to try, and can't be like a woman with small feet. If you see it, you will try boldly and break boldly. The important experience of the SEZs is that they dare to break through, and without the spirit of breaking through, without the spirit of 'taking risks,' and without the vigor and vigor, they will not be able to embark on a good road, a new road, or a new cause.
Don't take risks, do everything with 100% certainty, foolproof, who would dare to say such a thing? I was self-righteous at the beginning, I thought it was 100% right, and I never thought that way. ”
"The chief is right to criticize."
Secretary Chang and Vice Mayor Wang glanced at each other, and began to review pleadingly: "Compared with a few years ago, our steps are smaller, and we always look forward and backward, but please rest assured." In the future, we will definitely travel light. Intensify efforts to attract investment. Speed up the pace of development and build the SEZs faster and better. ”
The pressure on all sides is so great, it is not easy for them to do this.
Where would the old man criticize, thinking of an internal reference he had read some time ago, he said step by step: "Comrade Zaishan, you have made that stock exchange, which is very controversial, but the securities and stock market. Are these things good or not, are they dangerous, are they unique to capitalism, and can socialism be used?
It is permissible to see, but it is necessary to try resolutely. Look right, do it right for a year or two, let go; Wrong, correct, just turn it off. Off, you can also turn off quickly. You can also turn off slowly, or you can leave a little tail. Afraid of what. It doesn't matter if you stick to this attitude, you won't make big mistakes. ”
It was another reassuring pill, Secretary Chang was ecstatic, and nodded again and again: "Xie Lu Xie Chief support, we will definitely do a good job in stocks and securities, and we will never let you down." ”
The old man seemed to be tired, took the cup from his daughter's hand, took a sip of water, and asked with interest: "Comrade Zaishan, which units will you visit later?" Can you tell us about that first? ”
The reason why it is put at the end of the list is that I want to take NB Electric as the finale, and the permanent secretary hurriedly introduced: "Report chief, in the afternoon, there is an NB electrical, especially the NB laboratory, there are many high-tech achievements, which can be said to represent the highest level of basic research and technology application in the Special Economic Zone, Dongguang and even the whole country." ”
A very familiar company, looking at her father's thoughtful appearance, the second daughter hurriedly reminded: "It is the company that modified the aircraft engine and helped Kuwait extinguish the oil field fire." ”
"Oh, I remember, and I also assisted the oil and gas company with a few projects."
"Chief, NB Electric doesn't just do engineering."
Vice Mayor Wang took over the conversation and excitedly introduced: "I don't know if you have noticed, what is the difference between the color TV in the guest house and the ordinary color TV. It is also a product of NB Electric, called 'NB Future Window', with a right-angled plane and a 29-inch large screen, which has dozens of patents in dozens of countries such as the United States, Japan, Germany, South Korea and China. ”
"They invented it themselves?"
"I invented it, there is no rival to compete with in the international market, since they officially launched the product to the international market, eight of the ten containers waiting to be loaded on the dock are NB Electric, not including the trucks sent to Hong Kong by land."
There are more than 100 domestic color TV companies,The whole industry looks thriving,But the core technology is all imported from abroad,A large part of the spare parts also need to be imported,I heard that NB electrical has its own technology,And the products are actually exported abroad,The old man couldn't help but sigh:"I have long said,Technology is the first productive force!" ”
When it is time to talk about the results, the permanent secretary wasted no time in reporting: "Your old instructions, we have not dared to hope, as early as the establishment of the NB laboratory, Xiangjiang University and the NB laboratory to establish the Institute of optoelectronics. After several years of hard work, researchers have finally developed gallium nitride and indium nitride, which are wide bandgap semiconductor materials.
These are two very remarkable inventions, which can be applied to many fields, and a total of more than a dozen patents have been applied for at home and abroad. According to the scientists in the laboratory, in a few years, they will become a new profit growth point for NB Electric and another important source of foreign exchange for the Special Economic Zone. ”
There are really few companies like NB Electric, and the old people are getting more and more interested, and they can't help but ask: "How much foreign exchange is earned every year now?" ”
"Last year, it was 800 million Hong Kong dollars, and it will at least quadruple in the future!"
The permanent secretary paused, and said in a few words: "Chief, NB Electric has several firsts, it is the largest foreign investment in the Special Economic Zone, so far it has invested more than 600 million US dollars, and will increase investment in the future. ”
In the 11 years since the establishment of the Special Economic Zone, the total amount of foreign investment attracted has only been more than 7 billion US dollars, and NB Electric alone accounts for nearly 10%, which is undoubtedly a big number.
The old man was a little incredulous, looking at his suspicious look, Secretary Chang continued: "NB Electronics, which produces color TVs, has invested 500 million US dollars, and there are also subsidiaries such as NB Electrician, NB Electrical, and NB Electrical, and 80% of the products are exported, so it is also the foreign-funded enterprise that earns the most foreign exchange in the Special Economic Zone." ”
"What other firsts?" There is no exchange of technology for the Chinese market like Western companies, and the old people are more interested in NB Electric.
"The speed of development is the first."
Secretary Chang wrenched his fingers and introduced: "Six years ago, NB Electric was just a small company with a total investment of more than 2 million Hong Kong dollars, specializing in the production of switch and socket panels. But they have a strong focus on technical development. The switch socket panel alone has more than 100 domestic and foreign patents. Therefore, the product is promoted to the international market. It occupies a high market share.
At the same time, they are also the first and only foreign-funded enterprises in the Special Economic Zone to establish a trade union. In addition, although the Volunteer Federation was initiated by the Municipal Youth League Committee, the first batch of volunteers were almost all from NB Electric. Every year at the Canton Fair, they will go to Guangdu to provide free translation services for foreign merchants under the organization of the District Youth League Committee. ”
Not only the establishment of a trade union, but also the organization of volunteers to serve the society, the elderly more and more fond of NB Electric, can't help but smile and ask, "Is there anything else?" ”
"Yes."
The permanent secretary focused his head. He continued: "NB Electric is the company that has donated the most to Project Hope, and since 89 years, it has donated 10 million yuan to Project Hope every year. The Asian Games and last year's East China floods were donated, especially last year's disaster relief, which was also 10 million! NB Electric is also the company that has applied for the most international certifications, with more than 1,300 quality system certifications and electrical certifications, fully in line with international standards.
In addition, NB Electric is the company with the largest investment in research in the Special Economic Zone and even in the country, and we will visit the experimental center. Its various experimental instruments and equipment are worth hundreds of millions of yuan. In addition to the color TV technology and the two inventions I just introduced, there are several Nobel Prize-level discoveries. For example, the 'giant magnetoresistive effect', such as 'carbon nanotubes'. ”
China has not produced great results for too long, and the old man asked sharply: "Are they all found in China?" ”
Secretary Chang had already prepared and told the truth: "Chief, NB Electric has several laboratories and branches, including the experimental center of the Special Administrative Region, the Hong Kong NB laboratory, the Berlin NB laboratory and the Taiwan R&D center. Although these two big achievements were discovered in the NB laboratory in Hong Kong, almost all of the young scientists who discovered them were from China.
These include the founders of NB Electric, Guo Junru and Shen Xinru, the directors and deputy directors of the Basic Research Laboratory, and Dr. Cai Yangzhi, who graduated from QH University. Especially the charter, he is not only from China, but also the child of martyrs, his father Zhang Yuanchao died in Vietnam, and his grandfather died in North Korea. ”
Two generations of martyrs, the old man was surprised and couldn't help asking: "Which university did he graduate from?" ”
"He didn't go to college, he was really self-taught, and Mr. Gu favored him, jokingly saying that he was a little inventor in China, little Edison, when he was a teenager."
has a good relationship with Mr. Gu, so there is no doubt about the political position.
The old man nodded slightly, and asked again: "He is the founder of NB Electric, so what position does NB Electric hold?" ”
He used to be the chief engineer of NB Electrical, and later accepted the invitation of East Germany to go to the East German Academy of Sciences as a visiting scholar for two years. Last summer, he was invited by Leningrad University to be a visiting professor at the Department of Mathematics and Mechanics, and did not bother much with corporate affairs. ”
What a strange person, even the eldest daughter of the old man became interested in the young scientist, and couldn't help but smile and ask, "Secretary Chang, how old is that charter this year?" ”
"It's either 22 or 23, it's young."
"So young?"
Secretary Chang wasted no time in complimenting: "Ambition is not old, when he is so old, the chiefs have already returned from French work-study to do revolution. ”
The professor in his 20s at the Juvenile University of Science and Technology has it, and there is really nothing strange about it, the old man smiled and asked, "Who is in charge of NB Electric now?" ”
"It used to be his brother-in-law Liu Siwei, and last year the group was reshuffled, setting up a group board of directors and chief executive officer like a large company in Western countries, and the current CEO is Wu Jinhua, former vice president of the Hong Kong Productivity Council."
The old man's second daughter was confused, and asked puzzledly: "He is from China, why did he go to Hong Kong?" ”
His brother-in-law Liu Siwei is a native of Hong Kong, and later made some inventions, so he immigrated to Hong Kong with skills. But I have always been concerned about the country, otherwise it would not be possible to invest so much in the country. ”
According to the existing policies and regulations, no matter how great his ability is, he will not be able to do anything in China.
Reform, must be reformed!
The old man's mood suddenly became a little dignified, and he raised his index finger and said: "The development of private enterprises, the institutional environment is very important, NB Electric is an example, if there is a policy environment, it cannot be a company." Two generations of martyrs have feelings for China, and if there is an environment, it is impossible for that little inventor to go to Hong Kong, so it is necessary to introduce policies to encourage scientific and technological personnel to set up non-governmental science and technology enterprises, and encourage the establishment of various forms of private enterprises. ”
The old man's speech was an instruction, and the permanent secretary had a small tape recorder in his pocket and recorded it all word for word.
Before you know it, the convoy has reached a junction not far from the NB Industrial Park.
Vice Mayor Wang, who had never had a chance to interject just now, leaned on the back of his chair and introduced: "Chief, Li Xiaoshan, general manager of NB Electric (China), is a subordinate of Zhang Yuanchao, the father of the charter, who has been on the battlefield and made third-class merits, and is a combat hero, and he was just appointed to the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference last year, and his political consciousness is very high......"
