Chapter 524: Guests
Obviously, on the four-inch chip production equipment, Song Yu didn't completely figure it out, he took it for granted that it was a complete production line, but he didn't expect it to be only 1/3 of a production line.
The electronics factory has a glorious past, but now it is barely able to survive by producing integrated circuits for multi-functional electronic watches for Hong Kong Island businessmen.
After staying in Guangdong Province for so many years, Wang Weidong and Song Yu both know how low the price of the kind of electronic watch is that grabs a lot of it, and the price of the integrated circuit chips on it can be imagined. It is simply impossible to maintain the survival of such a large factory by producing such chips.
It seems that the hope of buying a chip production line is completely dashed.
Song Yu drove Wang Wang Weidong to the headquarters of Xiangyang Electronics.
"Xiaoyu, I want to criticize you for this matter, the leader said it well, there is no right to speak without investigation and research! You didn't understand this matter at all, and when we ran there, it was naturally empty. Don't say that there are only 1/3 of the production line, even 90% of the production line we can't buy. Wang Weidong said.
"I'm really to blame for this, I'm too frizzy. Now it's time for us to import equipment. Song Yu said.
The country now attaches great importance to the semiconductor industry, and the Ministry of Electronics Industry and cities like Beijing have set up special offices for the leading group for the revitalization of electronics to coordinate and promote the development of the semiconductor industry.
Wang Weidong came to the capital this time and negotiated with the relevant departments about the import of second-hand equipment from the small book country.
If you go through the normal procedure to import second-hand equipment, it is very troublesome in the procedures, and the tax rate is also very high, 8% import duty, plus 13% value-added tax, the comprehensive calculation of the entire tax rate reaches more than 22%.
That's more than $2 million in taxes on $12 million of equipment.
The idea of Xiangyang Electronics is that since the country attaches so much importance to the development of the electronics industry, can it give a little tax reduction to Xiangyang Electronics in the import of this batch of equipment.
After the advent of semiconductors, there are two development directions of electronic technology, one is microelectronics technology in the direction of computing and information, that is, chip memory, etc., and the other is power electronics technology in the direction of power.
To tell the truth, the relevant departments of the state recognized the importance of microelectronics technology, that is, chip integrated circuits and memories, at the very beginning, although there is a huge technical gap and insufficient funding. However, in the past 20 years, he has tightened his belt and purchased some advanced foreign technology and equipment.
However, not enough attention has been paid to power electronics. And Xiangyang Electronics takes the technical route of power electronics.
Among them, the production of IGBT is one of the most important power electronic components.
However, in the late 80s, the country gradually realized the importance of power electronics technology and began to promote the development of this technology.
One of the more important reasons is that the country is now short of foreign exchange, and it is urgent for the power electronics industry to turn imports into exports and strive for foreign exchange through exports.
In order to achieve this goal, the state has also arranged a large amount of technical funding.
Of course, Wang Weidong and Song Yu are self-aware, and it is very difficult for Xiangyang Electronics as a private enterprise to get financial support from the state.
So many state-owned enterprises and research institutes are waiting for it.
Their aspirations are not high, as long as they can reduce the import tariffs on this batch of IGBT production lines.
However, he and Song Yu ran for a few days in the relevant state departments, and there was no effect at all.
Chu Yunhui called Wang Weidong and told her that she had arrived in the capital.
Wang Weidong suggested that she go to the hotel to stay first, and in the evening he and Song Yu took her to the Long'an Club.
In the evening, Song Yu and Wang Weidong drove to the Great Wall Hotel to pick up Chu Yunhui, and then the car turned onto Chang'an Avenue and went in the direction of the main square.
The car finally stopped in front of a building ten minutes' walk from the main square.
The three of them got out of the car and walked towards the gate together, and a middle-aged man greeted them with a smile at the gate.
"Mr. Wang, Mr. Song, our boss Chen asked me to greet you here and welcome you to become the first batch of members of our Longan Club!" The middle-aged man said.
"In addition to the two of us, so did this lady. She is Ms. Chu Yunhui, director of Hong Kong Island Guardian Industrial Co., Ltd. Song Yu said.
The middle-aged man's head contained the names of hundreds of Hong Kong Island businessmen, but he didn't remember who Chu Yunhui was after thinking for a long time.
"My grandfather is Mr. Chu Zhongxiong." Chu Yunhui introduced herself.
However, she was still a little embarrassed, and actually moved her grandfather out in order to introduce herself.
Hearing Chu Zhongxiong's name, the middle-aged man nodded and said he understood.
"Ms. Zhong is also the wife of Ou Xiaojun, the director of our Sunningdale Electronics." Wang Weidong added on the side.
It was only then that the middle-aged man nodded in realization.
"According to the rules of our club, the wife of a member and the child under the age of 21 can enjoy the same treatment as a member. If this is the case, after Mr. Ou Xiaojun comes to the capital to complete the membership procedures, Miss Chu can even go through the membership procedures. The middle-aged man said.
"You're such a verbose person! Ms. Chu Yunhui is a well-known entrepreneur on Hong Kong Island, can't I and Mr. Wang Weidong introduce her to the club as members? Song Yu said impatiently.
Hearing the unhappiness in Song Yu's tone, the middle-aged man hurriedly smiled and nodded, "Of course it's okay, the three VIPs will be invited in immediately!" ”
Walking into the door of the Long An Club, you immediately see a wide red sandalwood screen, and you can see the splendid decoration in the hall on the first floor when you bypass the screen.
The middle-aged man led the three of them into an office to check in for membership, and then took the three of them on a tour of the library, the private rooms of the various restaurants and the gym on the top floor.
"Today, as a token of my appreciation, I invite you both to dinner here. Don't know what you want to eat? Chu Yunhui said.
At the time of the introduction, the middle-aged man had already explained to them that on the eighth floor of this club was a Chinese restaurant, and on the ninth floor there was a Japanese restaurant and an Italian restaurant.
"Let's eat Italian food." Wang Weidong said.
"Weidong, you want to save me money." Chu Yunhui said with a smile.
You don't have to think about it to know that the most expensive of these three restaurants must be the Chinese restaurant.
Wang Weidong only ordered an Italian paella, and Song Yu and Chu Yunhui also ordered a relatively simple Italian lasagna, and the three of them chatted while eating.
When Chu Yunhui heard Wang Weidong talk about the production line of imported small books, he asked: "If your production equipment is transferred from Hong Kong Island, it will be much more convenient." ”
"I know that it will be much easier for equipment to be transferred from Hong Kong Island and then enter from Shenzhen. Equipment is tax-free when it enters Hong Kong Island, but after all, there is still a tax to enter the port of Shencheng. Wang Weidong said.
"Why not another way? If you can't reach someone, I can help you get in touch. Chu Yunhui said.
Although Chu Yunhui didn't understand what method to use, Wang Weidong and Song Yu both shook their heads at the same time.
"I'd rather spend more money than use this method." Wang Weidong said.
