Chapter 633: All Possibilities
Now Xiangyang Electronics everything is on the track, everything has a special person in charge, the electronics factory, the brewery production and sales are in good order, the construction of the two school sites is no problem, in China there is only no shortage of project funds, the construction speed is leveraged.
But at this time, bad news came from the United States, and Mr. Robert Jr., the commercial representative of Xiangyang Electronics in the United States, sent an email to tell Wang Weidong that someone reported to the United States government that Xiangyang Electronics is a military company in China, and that the import of inverters from Xiangyang Electronics is to support China's military industry in disguise.
Wang Weidong immediately asked Li Yueshi to contact Robert Jr.
"Little Robert, where did you get this information, is it reliable?" Wang Weidong asked.
"Absolutely reliable, as far as I know, this matter should have been transmitted from China to the United States." Robert Jr. replied.
That's the case in China, there is a first mover that has a money-making effect and others will soon follow.
And then there's the crowd of horses crammed into the same track.
Don't need foreigners to speak, they take the initiative to reduce the price first, and everyone kills until the red eye and the blood flows like a river.
Of course, worse competition methods also appear frequently, and the situation encountered by Sunningdale is one of them.
"Mr. Robert Jr., you have to communicate with the US government, we Xiangyang Electronics is a private enterprise, not a state-owned enterprise. We do sell tubes to state-owned enterprises for the production of radars, but this situation abounds in your country, for example, Boeing, which produces military aircraft and civilian aircraft, and we still import Boeing aircraft. Wang Weidong said.
"Wang, this reason is not good, there are only two large aircraft companies in this world, you can only import, you must import! But inverters are different, anyone can produce them, and there is no need to purchase only inverters from Sunning. Robert Jr. said.
"Can you know which Chinese company reported it?" Wang Weidong asked.
"That's absolutely not going to work, I don't want the FBI to get me in trouble!" Robert Jr. firmly refused.
In the end, Robert Jr. suggested that Wang Weidong go to the United States to communicate and explain the situation, and not wait until the sanctions are introduced before taking action, by then it will be too late.
Wang Weidong immediately called Ou Xiaojun to discuss this matter, he hoped that after he went to the United States, Ou Xiaojun would stay at home and be responsible for finding the company that had reported to the United States.
"Weidong, this matter may have been reported by a company that wants to produce inverters for export to the United States, or it may be another situation." Ou Xiaojun said.
"Now that the business of exporting inverters to foreign countries accounts for an increasing proportion of Sunningdale's production, what will we do next? In order to keep the main business of inverter production, we may transfer the tube factory, and we can't lose a lot because of a small thing. Ou Xiaojun continued.
"Are you saying that someone may want to get our Sunny Electronics' electron tube factory to do this?" Wang Weidong asked.
"There are all kinds of possibilities, and it's really hard to guess if people are separated from their stomachs." Ou Xiaojun replied.
"I'm going to go to the United States immediately, and I still have to do the secret investigation, and see if there are still companies in China that put inverters into production." Wang Weidong said.
Wang Weidong and Li Yueshi left for the United States two days later.
From March to April 2000, when the Internet bubble burst in the United States, the Nasdaq fell from more than 5,000 to 3,400 points, and finally to 1,500 points.
The high-tech companies in the United States can be described as full of corpses.
It is said that some people who are in charge of cleaning in high-tech companies have become rich with their shares, but everything has come to naught in the blink of an eye.
Although the situation of high-tech companies is very miserable, the actual situation in the United States is that the horses are running, dancing and dancing, and ordinary people don't care about these things at all.
Making money is a personal thing, bankruptcy is also a personal thing, in the country every day someone gets rich, and every day someone goes bankrupt, no one thinks it's the end of the world.
Wang Weidong even thinks that more Chinese people care about the Nasdaq crash than the United States.
The plane landed in Los Angeles, and Wang Weidong and Li Yueshi took another flight to Salt Lake City.
This is the home of Robert Jr., who warmly welcomed Wang Weidong and Li Yueshi.
"Your father, Mr. Robert, is a senator, should we go to Washington to meet him and explain the matter to him first?" Wang Weidong asked.
"Don't worry, you can play in Salt Lake City for a few days, and I'll take you to the Utah Jazz game tomorrow!" Robert Jr. said.
The next night, the Utah Jazz played the SuperSonics at home, and Karl Malone scored 50 points alone!
The cheers knocked the roof of the basketball arena over.
"Your luck is so good, King, that you saw a great game! Karl Malone has broken his own record! Robert Jr. said excitedly.
Salt Lake City is the place where thousands of seagulls eat locusts, and Robert Jr. drove Wang Weidong and Li Yueshi around Salt Lake City and nearby areas in a few days.
"This is the best place for law and order in the country, and the people here are industrious and simple, just like purebred corn, every grain is yellow!" Robert Jr. said.
Li Yueshi served as the translator, she didn't understand Little Robert's words, could it be that corn has other colors?
Wang Weidong knows that different varieties of corn can have different colors after being pollinated.
Robert Jr.'s father, Mr. Robert, flew back to Salt Lake City from Washington to see Wang Weidong.
It is said that it is not uncommon for someone like him in his eighties to serve as a senator in the United States.
Wang Weidong told Robert Sr. about the situation of Xiangyang Electronics.
"We are a private company, not a state-owned enterprise, and we do sell tubes to state-owned enterprises, but that's only a small part of the radar!" Wang Weidong said.
"But the factories that produce tubes and inverters belong to you Xiangyang Electronics, who can guarantee that you will not use the money you earn from selling inverters to the United States for the development of tubes? This is tantamount to supporting China's military industry with the money of the Chinese people! If the state asks you to develop a new and more advanced tube, will you not develop it? Robert Sr. asked.
Wang Weidong has no way to answer this question, of course he has to develop and produce, which is not only a matter of making money, but also a responsibility.
If he is asked to transfer the factory that produces electron tubes now, Wang Weidong will not be able to make up his mind, which is also a matter of responsibility.
"Actually, I have a way to solve this problem, you can invest in the United States to build factories, and hire workers to produce inverters in the United States! In that case, I promise you won't have a problem! Robert Sr. said.
After returning to the hotel, Wang Weidong said to Li Yueshi: "There is another possibility, that is, this old guy deliberately engaged us in order to let Xiangyang Electronics invest in the United States!" ”
