Chapter 0571 - Don't Know Anything
Yuki Watanabe understands His Excellency the President's management model of 'survival of the fittest', and even he himself can feel the tremendous pressure of strong competition.
It was precisely because he was worried that he would lose his position as vice president if he didn't do his job well, so the old devil ruthlessly went to Japan to recruit the old social animal to join the 'Holy Light'.
In the 90s, Japan's economy was turbulent, and the number of homeless people on the streets increased dramatically. Some of them are even high-achieving students of 'Dongda' and 'Imperial University', including doctors, technicians, engineers, executives, and financial elites.
Once bankrupt, they either jump off the building, or take on all the debts, disassociate themselves from their children and wives, and enter a state of social death – not even daring to receive government assistance.
In this turbulent environment, those who want to go to the Japanese stock market to buy the bottom are too whimsical, and the capital predators will be swallowed up when they enter it, and there is not even slag left. However, it is more feasible to buy these old social animals.
However, the source of the excess funds needed by the 'Holy Light' to maintain the super competition has become a mystery - after all, you can't ask the horses to run and the horses not to eat grass.
There is also a fee for pulling old social animals to work.
Watanabe couldn't help but wonder why he came to Tianyang? Isn't it because of the smuggling of the 'Holy Light' that many foreign companies are not doing well?
The so-called violation of the Wassenaar agreement is just a pretext.
Watanabe was not worried that his original intentions would be revealed, because he had not done anything to damage the interests of the group since he arrived in Tianyang, even Karl, the German fat man.
I don't care about everything.
On the mind, there is no perfect person in the world.
As for Anderson. Qin, Watanabe is not afraid of him. That guy didn't do anything except keep a diary.
But in the face of the group's strong financial strength, Watanabe will inevitably muttered in his heart.
The president is 'not suspicious, not suspicious', and the vice president can see almost all the financial statements of the group.
'Holy Light' has a large amount of expenditure every month, and tens of millions of dollars are spent every month just to build infrastructure everywhere in the Tianyang area.
The number of employees in the group has recently swelled to more than 10,000, and the monthly salary is 20 or 30 million.
The internal and external R&D investment is hundreds of millions, some of which are discounted by unknown equipment.
For example, last month, Shengguang donated five sets of eight-inch monocrystalline silicon growth furnaces to several domestic optical and mechanical institutes for the production of circuit-grade silicon wafers - the purity requirement is 'nine nines after the percent number'.
The semiconductor industry chain is very long, but high-quality wafers are the foundation of everything. The eight-inch silicon wafer is the 'latest' technology that has only been released in 90 years, which is quite in line with the current level.
But just because the equipment arrives doesn't mean it will be used well. That's why the president's exact words were, "Whoever builds qualified circuit-grade silicon wafers first, I will continue to work with them." ”
These devices are converted into quite high prices, and any one can cost hundreds of millions. After all, it is not expensive, and it is not painful in China, and I don't have the heart to develop it myself.
But in addition to the physical discount, the 'Holy Light' did spend a lot of real money. In order to improve the efficiency of the partners, the president does not hesitate to pay with valuable foreign currency.
With such a large expense, the president not only did not feel the effort, but also spent even more lavishly. This shows that he has a strong source of income.
For example, 'Holy Light Entertainment' is now a cash cow. Since expanding into the Japanese market, it has earned at least 100 million Hong Kong dollars a month, and can maintain a profit growth rate of more than 20%.
Watanabe Yu couldn't cry or laugh after knowing this. Now the Japanese economy is not good, companies are closing down every day, and the population is unemployed. The yen assets collapsed, and entertainment consumption was sluggish.
Kabukicho is now crowded with people, and the workers of Japanese companies who have spent a lot of money are frightened by the terrible economic crisis. But the cheapest comics and videotapes instead became bestsellers and solace for the lost.
For 'Shengguang Entertainment', the Japanese market has long surpassed the HK market. If this continues, its income will only increase - more and more will be until the Tianyang Academy of Fine Arts officially opens a comic and animation major, specializing in providing talents for 'Shengguang Entertainment'.
This is an apparent income, but it is not enough to support the overspending of the Light. Although the group's motorized three-wheeled and low-end construction machinery sold well, the pricing could not make a few dollars.
Another way to send money to the Light is the Harmony system. The stores of 'Harmony Supermarket' have spread all over Tianyang, and the fleet of 'Harmony Transportation' has expanded to surrounding counties and cities.
Every day, several 1,000-ton barges depart from the Taipingqiao Wharf in Tianyang to transport 'imported household appliances, furniture and clothing' to other cities.
The Tangjiang River has a great convenience, it can cross the Jiujiang River all the way, the upstream leads to Chongqing, and the downstream leads to the magic capital. There are many people along the way, the market is almost unlimited, and the water transport is particularly cheap and convenient.
After Tianyang's 'imported goods' market is saturated, 'Harmony Supermarket' is opening stores all the way to make money all the way.
In particular, in the last two months, a semi-mechanized garbage recycling site in Nantou Township has been built, and the number of employees of 'Harmony Recycling' has exceeded 2,000, and the supply of recyclables has increased by orders of magnitude.
Originally, he could earn 20 or 30 million a month, but now he directly exceeded 200 million. It's really a sight-popping business, and I don't know how many things have gone wrong in the process of opening a store and shipping it.
He Yulan, who is in charge of the 'harmony' department, originally had a very soft temperament and was kind to everyone. But since she took over Zhou Qingfeng's 'secret', she also had to change.
Whoever dares to stand in the way of 'harmonious' business is the enemy of 'harmonious'.
But for Watanabe, he doesn't care how much 'harmony' earns. He, like everyone else, is only curious about where the 'imported' goods come from?
This is not visible from the report.
The old devil had given up exploring the smuggling channel of the 'Holy Light', but this channel was so clearly placed in front of him that there was no concealment in the slightest.
As long as you have a little brain, anyone can see that the garbage recycling site that was originally located at Taipingqiao Wharf and is now moved to Nantou Township is the key to making a fortune for 'Holy Light'.
"Why doesn't anyone question this? Or was everyone gag-and-go? Or is it affected in any way? ”
Vice President Watanabe occasionally thinks about this as a leisure time. If he can't figure it out, he still needs to look at other management reports.
Because he is in charge of production management, Watanabe has all the production line data of 'Holy Light' on hand. The former Tianyang Machinery Factory has completed the transformation and is working hard to produce small-displacement engines and corresponding transmissions.
After the R&D department was integrated, Zhou Qingfeng was ready to add a motorcycle production line on the basis of three wheels. From riding motorcycles to cargo motorcycles, the current domestic market is still quite large.
The production line introduces 'Japanese' technology, but there are only piles of data. All machine tool layout, tooling and fixtures, raw materials and parts supply are handled by Shengguang's own R&D department and purchasing department.
Watanabe was also instructed to bring in a group of engineers from Mitsubishi, Kawasaki, or Yamaha, and the motorcycle market in Japan was shrinking anyway, and was preparing to move to the mainland.
A motorcycle is much more complicated than a motorized three-wheeler. 'Holy Light' does not plan to make all the parts in-house, except for the core components such as the engine, the others can be outsourced and fully outsourced.
Just control the quality yourself and assemble it.
In this process, there is another question that Watanabe can't understand - the domestic production of steel and aluminum ingots is still limited and very tight, how does 'Holy Light' get the raw materials?
Because almost all parts suppliers will order steel and aluminum ingots from 'Shengguang Steel'. That is to say, the Light is supplying Itself.
It's a very strange supply chain, and Yuo Watanabe, who is in charge of production management, naturally sees this almost closed-loop chain.
"Where do the raw materials come from?"
Yuo Watanabe traced a little, "From the scrap steel and aluminum scrap provided by 'Harmony Recycling'? How does this garbage collection company offer everything? It even offers waste rubber and waste plastic. ”
The old devil looked at the import and export reports at hand, and said with a wry smile: "I don't want to track these down now." But the secret came to me by itself. I can only pretend that I don't know anything. ”
