My Age of Investment

Central Plains Province, Shangdu.

Guo Taimin inspected the work at the newly built Futukang factory in the commercial capital.

A group of people walked very slowly, stopping from time to time to talk to each other while pointing to the majestic factory building in front of them, which looked like a new city.

“The pace of construction will continue to accelerate. We must build 95 smartphone production lines and recruit at least 130,000 employees before next year. At the same time, we must further expand the factory area to 1.4 million square meters and build enough dormitories and living quarters. District...in order to build the Shangdu branch into the world's largest smartphone production base."

This was said not only to the senior executives around him, but also to the group of prefects and colleagues around him.

There is no other way. People are poor and have short ambitions. No matter how low-end and inhuman the prosperity is, it is still better than digging in the fields for food.

Take the land under their feet as an example. Last year it was still a jujube forest. When Guo Taimin came to inspect last year, everyone could only step on the loess and take photos under a few jujube trees.

Nowadays, brand-new and grand factories have been built around the area, cement roads have been built, and many local farmers have started small stall hawker businesses in the factories in front of their homes. Young people no longer have to live on a few acres of land like their ancestors did for generations.

To a certain extent, Futukang, which the leading coastal cities look down upon, is their treasure.

This is also true. Not only are their businesses trying to get Futukang, but cities like Xingcheng, Yuzhou, and Rongcheng, which look pretty good, are all vying for Futukang.

What a joke, what midwestern city wouldn’t want a giant factory that can directly create hundreds of thousands of jobs and indirectly support millions of people.

Futukang can account for 80% of the total import and export of the provincial capital Shangdu and two-thirds of the total import and export of Central Plains Province, affecting hundreds of billions of GDP.

Therefore, even if Guo Taimin's attitude is a little arrogant and his words are not pleasant, everyone has to endure it for now, at least until he is rich, he really doesn't have much qualifications to dislike him.

Just as Guo Taimin pointed out the country and described his own industrial kingdom with exciting words, his special secretary, Liu Yangwei, the future chairman of Futu Kang and Hongtian Group, answered the phone and walked quickly to him and whispered. A few words.

After Guo Taimin was silent for a few seconds, he said: "Everyone, let's go first. I have some small things to deal with here. I will be back in ten minutes."

After speaking, Guo Taimin left the group of senior civil servants in Shangdu and left with Liu Yangwei.

On the other side, Guo Taimin and Liu Yangwei returned to the car quickly.

"You said that all mainland color TV manufacturers have signed supply agreements with BOE?"

Guo Taimin seemed not to believe it and murmured to himself: "How could it be so fast? Shouldn't they ask Chimei for a price?"

Thinking of this, Guo Taimin glared at Liu Yangwei fiercely and asked in a cold voice: "Who is in charge of the negotiations with the mainland color TV manufacturers?"

Liu Yangwei shook his head and said: "BOE acted too quickly this time. Although I had expected that they would sell panels at a reduced price, I did not expect that they would move so quickly and decisively."

After Guo Taimin's murderous eyes stayed on Liu Yangwei for a few seconds, he moved to the window, looked at the large farmland in the distance, and said: "Don't think about it, it must be Xia Jingxing who took action. Only he can give BOE such confidence. , thus allowing BOE to make an offer that silences all mainland color TV manufacturers."

"Haha~"

Guo Taimin sneered twice, "You are such an immature wolf. The same goes for Pengcheng, and the same goes for Xia Jingxing."

Liu Yangwei knew that the chairman was venting his dissatisfaction with Xia Jingxing, so he also echoed behind him: "Yes, without Futukang's help in 2006 and 2007, how could Fuxing Mobile be where it is today?

But their wings got tough, and they turned against each other and refused to recognize anyone. First, they transferred some orders to BYD, and then established some kind of digital industrial company, and began to manufacture mobile phones on their own. They even said that they were looking for a company to explore digital industry and intelligent manufacturing. Experimental field.

How shameless! No entrepreneur from Hong Kong, Taiwan, Mainland China or even Japan, South Korea and the United States can stand him. "Bajie Zhongwen.com

"Okay, let's not talk nonsense anymore. You are the richest man in China. He has the strength to play this kind of money game. How can you tolerate him?

All we earn is hard-earned money, and we cannot compare with people like him who rob money in the financial market. "

After laughing at himself a few times, Guo Taimin patted his forehead and began to examine his successor, asking: "How should we deal with it?"

Liu Yangwei frowned and said: "Mainland is one of the few LCD panel markets in the world that maintains a high growth rate. Losing orders for color TV panels from the mainland will have a great impact on the shipments of large-size LCD panels for our high-generation line. Moreover, there is external competition from Samsung, LG and AUO.

It seems that we can only make up for the loss in the north and grab the AUO market. "

This answer made Guo Taimin shake his head. What kind of bad strategy was this? Jin Xuanzong would probably call him an expert.

Guo Taimin did not rush to refute, but encouraged with a smile: "Think about it carefully."

Liu Yangwei frowned even more, and after thinking seriously for half a minute, he replied: "Follow the old method of contacting Samsung and LG to control the price together?"

Guo Taimin smiled, "Contacting Samsung and LG is right, but it is not price control.

In the past, mainland China could not produce large-size LCD panels, and the price was not decided by us.

But it doesn’t work anymore. Mainland color TV manufacturers have collectively switched to BOE, which means that the price monopoly has been broken, and they can no longer arbitrarily slaughter these people as they did in the past.

Besides, Xia Jingxing has a lot of money. If you start a price war with him, you might end up eating arsenic and feeling guilty about your longevity. "

Liu Yangwei didn't speak, just nodded, looking like he was patiently listening to the teachings.

Seeing this, Guo Taimin gave a few more pointers: "First, you have to grasp the essence of the problem and find out the key.

What's the key? The key is Xia Jingxing.

He was so rich that he didn't concentrate on the consumer electronics business, which had huge gross and net profits, and came to join the panel industry.

If the development of the consumer electronics business encounters a setback, Fuxing Industrial will lose most of its life. He will definitely not be as leisurely as he is today to pay attention to the dispute in the panel industry. "

Liu Yangwei seemed to understand, but he didn't seem to understand. The Fuxing mobile phone had crushed the wisdom fruit, so how could one of its arms be cut off?

“You must be wondering how to frustrate Fuxing Consumer Electronics Group?

Let me tell you, the solution is to provoke Samsung into trouble.

What we can't do, Samsung can do! Coupled with a wisdom fruit, the status of Fuxing mobile phones is far less secure than you think. "

Liu Yangwei suddenly realized it and asked: "Will Samsung do this?"

"Yes! There is both cooperation and competition between the two companies.

In the past, cooperation was greater than competition, but now competition is greater than cooperation.

As long as Li Jianxi is not confused, he should know how to make a decision.

If it continues to develop, it will be a disaster for raising tigers, or it has already begun to backfire, haha~"

Guo Taimin suddenly laughed as he spoke. As someone who has suffered losses, he may be happy to see others make the same mistakes.

Now that Fuxing mobile phones are no longer contracted by Futukang, it would be better to be beaten to death by Samsung and Smart Fruit. If the vacant market is occupied by Smart Fruit, Futukang can still drink soup.

Xia Jingxing went too far. He just ate meat and took all the pots away. Now he started to think about another pot from Hongtian Group. It looked so ugly, how could it not be disgusting.

After some advice from Guo Taimin, Liu Yangwei completely realized that this was killing people with a borrowed knife and letting Samsung restrain Xia Jingxing's hands and feet, leaving him no time to interfere in the rights and wrongs of the panel industry.

If Wisdom Fruit saw an opportunity, he would definitely pounce on it and take a bite.

I have to say, it’s a good trick!

While Liu Yangwei was still thinking about Guo Taimin's strategy, Guo Taimin suddenly said: "The loss in the north and compensation in the south that you just mentioned is actually a good move.

But the premise is that Xia Jingxing, the great Mongolian country, must be led elsewhere!

Moreover, AUO was not from the Southern Song Dynasty. They had no money and could not afford to spend a long war.

If we swallow AUO in one go, we will become a tripartite force with Samsung and LG. "

When he heard that AUO was to be annexed, Liu Yangwei's eyes shone and he felt that he had greatly underestimated Director Guo's ambition.

The former top five Yizhou panel makers, CPT and Caijing, have fallen behind. AU Optronics has acquired Guanghui Electronics, and Hongtian Group has successively acquired Chimei Electronics and Tongbao Optoelectronics, and merged with its subsidiary Innolux Optoelectronics. , and are called the panel duo.

If Chimei takes over AUO in one go, it will really become the LCD panel giant, and its market share will even overtake Samsung and LG to become the world's number one.

For an OEM giant like Hongtian Group with nearly one million employees, the OEM job is still too hard. Not only the employees find it hard, but Guo Taimin also feels that they earn less, otherwise he would not think about diversifying his business. Panel and car too.

Panels are an industry where the strong will always be strong. Guo Taimin's desire to acquire AU Optronics is not just a whim, but he has been thinking about it for a long time.

Without BOE as a catalyst, it would be difficult for him to win over AU Optronics.

Now BOE is aggressive. Samsung and LG are giants with deep roots. If the two Yizhou panel manufacturers don't work together to keep warm, they will be squeezed out of the market.

Thinking of this, Guo Taimin suddenly wanted to end his inspection trip to the mainland. He had to rush back to Yizhou to make arrangements. He must not miss this leap-forward development opportunity that turned crisis into an opportunity.

"The cost of acquiring AU Optronics is not small, and our panel business has suffered a cumulative loss of NT$40 billion in the past three quarters, so the financial pressure is not small."

Liu Yangwei's reminder made Guo Taimin laugh. After a while, he stopped laughing and said, "Don't worry. Although I am not as valuable as Xia Jingxing, I can afford an AUO and at the same time withstand the cyclical fluctuations in panel prices." , it can still be done.

If it doesn't work, we can only suffer the hardships of our colleagues in the rich and well-off areas. "
