Chapter 208: Triumphant Return, Layout 2003
This year's World Robot Conference was held in Dongying.
Dongying's various robot companies attach great importance to it.
As a result, one of the most impressive products at the entire conference was Honda's ASIMO, a layman manufacturer of robots.
The other is the NS-Roboter 200 of Nanshan, a Chinese company.
The former is at least a Dongying enterprise, and Fanuc and Kawasaki manufacturers can still accept it.
But the latter stole the limelight from everyone, and many people were very uncomfortable.
Among them, Yoshida Yongmasa, who was the head of the sales department of Fanuc Huaxia Branch and is now transferred back to the headquarters as an ordinary salesman, reacted fiercely to this situation.
"Look, Minister!"
"Nanshan robots are not only starting to compete with everyone in Huaxia now, they have all directly killed our lair."
"If you don't pay attention to it, then the robot market in Huaxia will not have much to do with Dongying enterprises in the future."
"In addition to a small number of robots in special fields, some of our manufacturers can also get orders, and most of them will become the cake of Nanshan and other Huaxia's own robot manufacturers."
"I don't think this time there is no need for people from Aisin and Toyota to come forward, our Dongying Robot Association needs to stand up, act together, and think about how to deal with Nanshan."
"It's in our interest to strangle this company in its cradle."
Yoshida Nagamasa's previous life in China was very chic.
But after returning to Dongying, there is no special car, and there is no special rental house.
As for the countless girlfriends who took the initiative to pounce up, they disappeared completely.
All this, he thinks is Nanshan's fault.
If there were no Nanshan Technology Co., Ltd. in the world, his life would not be so bad.
"The main goal of the Dongying Robot Association is to promote the research, application and promotion of robot technology, if we jointly deal with Nanshan, when people sue us for violating the anti-monopoly law, then it will be troublesome?"
"You must know that since last year, the anti-monopoly investigation in the auto parts industry has been going on, and it is only now that it has entered the final stage."
"Our parts companies in Toei, Yazaki, Fujikura and NSK have all been fined hefty amounts by the U.S. judicial authorities."
"If this anti-monopoly is involved in the field of robotics at that time, we will be unlucky."
Yutaka Kawashima, as the head of the sales department of Fanuc's headquarters, can naturally feel the pressure brought by Nanshan to Fanuc.
Although in 2002, Huaxia's turnover only accounted for 10% of Fanuc.
But the increase is very fast.
According to the original forecast, in a few years, the turnover of the Chinese market will exceed 30% of the world.
However, it is precisely because the current proportion is not so high, so Yutaka Kawashima's pain is not as deep as Yoshida's.
"As long as we don't do these things in the American market, it's not a big problem."
"Minister, I think companies like Kawasaki, Fujikoshi, and Yaskawa should also feel some threats."
"At that time, even if Dongying's regulators want to investigate us, it will be the law that will not be held accountable."
Hearing Yoshida say this, Yutaka Kawashima was a little moved.
It is in the interests of all Dongying enterprises to suppress the technological development of Huaxia enterprises.
Do you seem to be worried too much?
"I'll talk to the ministers of those families and see what they think!"
Kawashima did not refuse again this time, but he did not directly agree either.
……
"Cheers!"
The four-day World Robot Conference ended successfully.
This time, both Honda and Minamiyama are winners.
Relatively speaking, Nanshan is the biggest winner.
After all, Honda's ASIMO has just attracted a lot of attention.
The product has not yet been put on the market and does not enjoy much economic benefit.
But Nanshan was different, and during the exhibition, more than a dozen customers expressed interest.
Among them, a customer in the United States directly paid a deposit of 100,000 US dollars and ordered 12 NS-Roboter 200s from Nanshan.
It's definitely off to a good start.
Therefore, a small celebration banquet is naturally a must.
Even Cao Yang didn't let everyone go back to China immediately tomorrow, but allowed everyone to go back after another day in Kyoto.
This can be regarded as a disguised welfare for everyone.
"Mr. Cao, Dongying has a lot of various industry exhibitions every year, except for some traditional tea, porcelain, silk and other exhibitions, our domestic enterprises can attract some attention, and other exhibitions basically will not have Chinese enterprises become hot spots."
"This time Nanshan broke the record, which is really gratifying."
Fang Sisi was also invited to attend the celebration banquet in Nanshan today.
After all, Nanshan's success at the robot conference this time is also due to her.
This girl has big eyes, a tall nose and a charming smile, and the overall temperament is gentle, confident and elegant.
Her beauty is not only reflected in her appearance, but also in her inner wisdom and talent.
Although Cao Yang had never heard her name in later generations, it did not affect him to look up to Wang Sisi.
"Nanshan has always taken the route of relying on technology to get orders, and we will take 10% of sales as R&D expenses every year."
"This year, this number is expected to reach 1 billion."
"And in this year's campus recruitment, we recruited 1,000 fresh graduates in one go."
Today, there are more than 9,000 employees in Nanshan, of which 30% are R&D personnel.
"This month's turnover is expected to exceed 1 billion, becoming the largest private enterprise in Yangcheng."
"In addition to robots, we also have a lot of research results in the auto parts industry and the machine tool industry."
"Welcome reporter Fang, you will have the opportunity to visit us in Nanshan in the future."
Such a good opportunity to show his strength in front of the people of Huaxia Terrace, Cao Yang naturally will not miss it.
As long as you go to Huaxia TV a few more times, the effect is better than any advertisement.
Although most of Nanshan's current products are not TO C, there will definitely be a demand for TO C in the future.
When it comes to brushing up on the sense of existence in front of the Chinese people and accumulating national popularity, it is obviously also very necessary.
"Mr. Cao, I have already suggested to the main station that I can do a special report related to Nanshan next time."
"Let everyone see our Chinese enterprises, but also be able to surpass international counterparts in technology."
"When the time comes, maybe I really have the opportunity to go to Yangcheng again to interview Mr. Cao."
Fang Sisi is also quite interested in Cao Yang
She has seen a lot of rich second generations.
But like Cao Yang, there is obviously none.
No matter what the purpose is, she is willing to have a good relationship with Nanshan.
After that, everyone was naturally the guest and host, eating, drinking and chatting.
……
When Cao Yang returned to Yangcheng again, Liu Tianwu first came to visit.
Obviously, Nanshan has been on Huaxia Station again, and has also made great achievements in the field of robotics, and Liu Tianwu already knows about this.
For these people, the news of Huaxia TV is 30 minutes a day, which is a must-see.
Even if you miss it because of work, you have to make it up.
"Mr. Cao, the second phase of Nanshan Industrial Park has been completed, and the third phase of the project is also in full swing."
"Now the city wants to build an industrial town around the Nanshan Industrial Park, do you think this idea is feasible?"
Nanshan Industrial Park is now the pillar of Panyu's GDP, and if you want to build an industrial town, you must negotiate with Nanshan.
At this point, Liu Tianwu's attitude is very correct.
Here in Yangcheng, everyone is still promoting work in line with the concept of development.
You don't think I'm in charge of you, you just have to do everything I ask.
Once I don't like it, I'll you.
"Leader, I think the idea of an industrial town is quite good."
"It is impossible for all the components of Nanshan's products to be produced by ourselves."
"We also hope to support a group of suppliers to develop with us."
"However, in the process of attracting investment in industrial towns, I suggest that we should pay attention to identification."
"There is no need to introduce some low-end and backward production capacity, otherwise we will have to find a way to transfer people to other places in a few years."
Cao Yang has a good understanding of Liu Tianwu's thoughts.
However, the industrial town can be built, but it should be centered on Nanshan.
After there can be no industrial town, all kinds of industries will come over when the time comes, which will affect the next development of Nanshan.
"That's definitely fine."
"Although the land in the district is not as tight as the magic capital and the imperial capital, not just any factory can get land use approval here."
"At that time, our industrial town will closely develop around the auto parts industry and equipment industry, and the investment targets are also related to these manufacturers."
Liu Tianwu saw that Cao Yang agreed to his proposal so happily, and there was a little more smile on his face.
In the past few years, he has watched Nanshan grow and develop, and he naturally knows very well that the industrial town needs the support of Nanshan in order to really do a good job.
Otherwise, it is likely to end up as a finished project, which will directly affect his progress.
"By the way, there are some situations in Yangcheng during this time, and there are quite a lot of employees in your industrial park, so you should pay a little attention."
"If an employee is unwell, let them go to the doctor in time."
After getting down to business, before leaving, Liu Tianwu wanted to speak and stopped, and finally reminded Cao Yang.
If ordinary people hear this, they probably can't figure out the meaning behind it.
But who is Cao Yang?
He immediately realized again that he had missed a big thing.
Although history has also proved that this incident has had little impact on the development of China.
But in the next period of time, it will still have a big impact on Yangcheng.
"Thank you, leader!"
"A large number of staff dormitories have been built in the first and second phases of Nanshan Industrial Park, and more than 80% of our workers live in the industrial park."
"In the next step, we will also make preparations in all aspects to make the industrial park in a closed operation as much as possible."
Cao Yang's decision is really not a joke.
The technology of this era cannot be compared with later generations.
If you don't prepare in advance, it will definitely be a mess at that time.
Seeing that Cao Yang already knew what he meant, Liu Tianwu quickly left.
Next, Cao Yang directly arranged for the company's personnel to purchase some special materials, and asked the canteen to do a good job in grain and oil reserves.
Even if some people don't understand, Cao Yang doesn't explain, just order everyone to do it.
Anyway, he is the boss, and these arrangements cost his money, and everyone dare not oppose them too bluntly.
Of course, you can't stop eating because of choking.
The work should be done or done.
"Mr. Cao, our turnover in 2002 suddenly increased to 10.1 billion, of which the gearbox division contributed 6.8 billion turnover, other parts contributed 2.1 billion turnover, the equipment center contributed 800 million, the mold center contributed 3 billion, and the robot division contributed 100 million."
"After deducting various R&D expenditures, plant construction, equipment purchases and other expenses, the company's net profit reached 16% this year."
"Most of this is due to the Transmission Division."
When Dong Shengnan came to report to Cao Yang, he emphasized many times within the finance department and asked for the confidentiality of financial data.
No way, all kinds of data are a bit fierce.
She is also worried that after the word spreads, it will have a bad impact.
"However, the company now has dozens of project teams working on new technologies that will need to be translated into mass-produced products."
"The construction of the third phase of the industrial park next year is expected to require an investment of more than 2 billion yuan, and the net profit margin next year may drop significantly."
For the Minister of Finance, it is natural to hope that the financial report for 2002 will look better.
But the earnings report is too good, and the pressure is great.
Because there are still days to go in 2003 and 2004.
"Mr. Cao, is it appropriate for the company to slow down the R&D investment and factory construction arrangements on new parts?"
"These projects are too fund-tying."
"For example, the production of ECU, even if it does not count R&D expenses, the construction of the factory alone will cost 300 million."
Dong Shengnan couldn't help but make a suggestion to Cao Yang.
The development of Nanshan is too fast, and the steps are too big.
She's worried that something will happen!
"Auto parts and equipment is the company's key development direction in recent years, and now it has made some breakthroughs, so it is natural that we can't give up halfway."
"Now the gearbox business is on the right track, which can provide the company with sufficient cash flow and profits, and there is no big problem in the short term."
"However, the finance department should communicate well with the purchasing department, and the inventory cycle of all parts exported overseas will be increased by an additional month."
"This plan will be implemented from today."
As soon as Cao Yang's words came out, Dong Shengnan couldn't help frowning, and said: "Mr. Cao, more than seventy percent of our current products are exported, and if the inventory increases by one month, it basically means that an additional seven or eight billion cash needs to be occupied." ”
"Now the inventory of export parts, if you count the inventory in the American warehouse, the volume of transportation by sea and the inventory in our own factory, it has been two months."
"If it continues to increase, I don't think it's very necessary."
Although the company is Caoyang's, Dong Shengnan still directly put forward his different opinions.
Among the various ministers in the entire Nanshan, Dong Shengnan's popularity can be said to be the worst.
No matter which department it is, she dares to scare.
