After Fujio Masuoka left, Duan Yun didn't hear back for a whole month.

However, Duan Yun also knew that Fujio was only a middle-level management in the Toshiba Group, and it needed to react at all levels about the matter of setting up a joint venture factory in China, and once the superiors raised objections, the matter would be delayed indefinitely.

In fact, what Duan Yun didn't know was that on the day Fujio Masuoka returned to China, he had already reported the matter to his superiors, hoping that Toshiba's senior management would agree to his joint venture factory in China.

However, businessmen have always liked to maximize profits, especially Toshiba such a large group in the formulation of business strategies, is more shrewd and cautious, after getting Fujio Masaoka from China, it did attract some attention from Toshiba's senior management, they also held an internal high-level meeting for this flash memory chip project, to study whether to set up a joint venture in China.

In the 80s, Toshiba color TVs entered China in large quantities, and the phrase at that time, "Steal, steal, Toshiba in the new era." It has become a well-known advertising slogan.

But in fact, Toshiba is also one of the first Japanese manufacturers to do business in China, as early as 1972 after the normalization of diplomatic relations between China and Japan, Toshiba has entered the Chinese market.

What is little known is that in 1977, China's first bipolar linear integrated circuit production line for color television was introduced from Toshiba Corporation.

At that time, the project invested 270 million yuan (about 66 million US dollars), and the construction target was to have a monthly production capacity of 10,000 pieces of 3-inch 5 microns, and an annual design capacity of 26.48 million integrated circuits.

This production line was put into operation in October 1982 and in 1984. By 1987, the production capacity of the 742 factory exceeded 30 million, accounting for 40% of the country's total output, and it became a specialized factory with advanced technology, the largest scale and industrial production in China at that time.

However, at that time, the second-hand production line of the chip production line sold by Toshiba to China was not very high, and it was a color TV chip technology that had long been mature in the world, and countries such as Europe, the United States and Japan already had more advanced production line technology for TV chips, and did not have any international competitiveness.

The flash memory chip technology that Duan Yun wants to introduce this time must use some of Toshiba's latest equipment, and the market for this flash memory chip has not yet been developed, and no one knows the huge commercial potential.

Therefore, in this meeting on China's investment and factory establishment, Toshiba's senior management still has disagreements on this matter, the main reason is that most Toshiba executives are not optimistic about the commercial value of Fujio Masakuoka's "Flash" flash memory chips, and there are serious doubts about whether this product can be sold in China.

In addition, for large companies like Toshiba, they have been pursuing the maximization of commercial interests, if they can make their own products, never build joint ventures abroad, and in China to do joint ventures, need to accept strict share restrictions, the general approach is that the Chinese party accounts for 51% of the shares, and the foreign party accounts for 49%, and the management of the enterprise must also be undertaken by Chinese personnel.

Therefore, after the high-level discussion of Toshiba Electronics, it was decided to sell this "Flash" flash memory chip to some large manufacturers in Europe and the United States, if it can open the European and American markets, then Toshiba does not need to set up a joint venture in China, Toshiba Corporation itself to build a flash memory chip factory, in order to maximize benefits.

But if European and American manufacturers are not interested in their technology, and Chinese mainland is willing to invest heavily in related chip production equipment, then Toshiba will reconsider opening a joint venture in China.

It is precisely because of this that Duan Yun has not received feedback from Toshiba Electronics for a long time, but this is also expected by Duan Yun, and he still needs to take advantage of this time to find ways to earn more foreign exchange.

Throughout May, the sales of colorful walkmans of Tianyin Electronics Factory reached a new high, under the continuous operation of the factory for 24 hours, coupled with the continuous improvement of the production process of the product technology research and development center, Tianyin Electronics Factory produced a total of 190,000 colorful walkmans, with a net profit of more than 36 million yuan, which has even surpassed most of the Shenzhen joint ventures, and has become a leading enterprise in Shenzhen's electronics industry without suspense.

On the day of Children's Day, Duan Yun once again took out 2.4 million yuan to build two nurseries, two kindergartens, and four primary schools in Bagualing Industrial Zone, Shangbu Industrial Zone, Shenzhen.

According to his plan for this year, in addition to the previous commitment of 8 million donations, he is also ready to add another 5 million to expand the main roads of the upper industrial zone and Badaling Industrial Zone, the whole project is expected to be completed in the middle of next year, when the main roads of the two industrial zones will be greatly widened, from the previous two-way two-lane to two-way four lanes, and the original cement pavement is replaced with asphalt pavement, the specific construction plan will be completed by the relevant departments of the municipal government and the first engineering team of Shenzhen。

Duan Yun did this, in fact, he also hoped to get strong support from the government for their enterprises, and on the other hand, Duan Yun has now become one of the leading enterprises in Shenzhen's electronics industry.

Duan Yun has his own business ideas, and these municipal projects invested in the construction of are actually beneficial to their Tianyin Electronics Factory, on the one hand, it solves the problem of difficulty in taking care of the children of migrant workers to go to school, and on the other hand, after the road is widened, the truck is no longer prone to blockage, which is convenient for Duan Yun to deliver goods to all parts of the country.

With the continuous increase of Duan Yun's investment in the municipal government, the Shenzhen Municipal Government also used its own channels to carry out a lot of positive publicity for Duan Yun, and for a time, Duan Yun became an interview guest of various radio and television stations, and his deeds often appeared in local newspapers in Guangzhou and Shenzhen.

Duan Yun's frequent donations to municipal construction soon aroused heated discussions, not only in Guangzhou and Shenzhen, but also throughout the country, there was also a certain amount of controversy about this matter, for Duan Yun such a sudden appearance of "conscientious capitalists", most people still very much approve of Duan Yun's approach, but a few people still question Duan Yun's motives for so much.

Among the Shenzhen Municipal Party Committee, there was also a lot of discussion about Duan Yun, and some leaders of the Shenzhen Municipal Party Committee even proposed that Duan Yun become a deputy to the Shenzhen Municipal People's Congress.

In fact, it was not until the two sessions in 1998 that the bosses of private enterprises entered the ranks of the people's congress deputies for the first time, and before that, whether the bosses of private enterprises can become people's congress deputies has always been a very sensitive topic, because this fundamentally involves the question of whether a country is "surnamed society" or "surname capital", and Shenzhen in 1986, for the first time, put forward the topic of letting private enterprises become municipal people's congress deputies, which is indeed a very bold and avant-garde thing.

In the past few years, Shenzhen has been on the cusp of reform, and all parts of the country have also been very critical of Shenzhen......
