Chapter 141 Goodbye
Although Xiangjiang's business is prosperous, its manufacturing industry is very weak. Apart from some merchants who set up factories in the mainland, the wealthy people in Xiangjiang advocate finance, real estate, logistics (shipment), trade and other operations. Therefore, the entire Xiangjiang River has almost no industrial foundation. Even those Xiangjiang merchants who open factories in the mainland are only doing primary OEM trade with low technical requirements. Just like computers and mobile phones, manufacturers with high-tech technologies, can be said to be none.
Although the development of pure commercial development in Xiangjiang has historical reasons, the mainland is actually not much better than that of Xiangjiang. Although the mainland shipyards could build tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of tons of ocean freighters many years ago, and there are only a few countries in the world with independent satellite launch capabilities, IC manufacturing is still far behind the world's advanced countries. Until now, all technical equipment is all based on imports, and the "Loongson" that has been called for for many years is a huge joke in Zhou Liwen's eyes.
Pang Yishan's surprise did not surprise Zhou Liwen. It is indeed as ordinary people imagine. Today's mobile phone industry is in the three kingdoms' competition for hegemony. Nokia, Motorola, and Ericsson have three sides. South Korea's Samsung has just emerged, and several Japanese brands have occupied one side. However, due to the different standards used by the Japanese, "severe the people" voluntarily gave up the mainland, the world's largest market. It was not until a few years later that it suddenly realized. Unfortunately, the time has passed and there is no power to turn the world.
Putting aside the arrogant Japanese companies, Nokia, Motorola and Ericsson, these three giants are incomparable to any Hong Kong consortium. Motorola is a veteran American company. It was famous long before World War II, with a wealthy and strong strength. Although it was incomplete in the battle between cellular and digital, it tried to suppress people and dominate the market, but unfortunately it failed in the end and eventually lost its position as the boss. However, the lean camel is bigger than a horse, and relies on its radio, broadband and Internet businesses. Even if it was defeated by Nokia in the mobile phone market, it still lived a very comfortable life, not to mention that it was supported by the powerful US government and military behind it.
Nokia has been the most glorious era for this company in recent years. Since entering the mobile phone manufacturing industry in 1996, Nokia has occupied the first place in the market for four consecutive years. It can be said that it has two of the three-pointers in the world. Its high share is shocking. Zhou Liwen is very clear that if there were no accidents, Nokia's position as king will continue until 2011. Faced with the rise of smartphones and new operating systems, under the dual impact of the second-generation Apple and Samsung, it lost its throne and was unable to recover.
As for the last Ericsson, as the world's largest mobile communication equipment manufacturer, its business covers more than 180 countries and regions around the world. However, since Ericsson's business focus is not on mobile phone business, Ericsson cooperated with Sony in 2001 and handed over the mobile phone business to Sony partners, thus gradually withdrawing from the mobile phone market, focusing on the core business with strong network system equipment, global professional services, technology platform authorization and mobile terminals.
In addition, Samsung, as a rising star, is one of the pillar companies in South Korea. Although its strength is not as strong as that of Nokia and other three giants, it is not comparable to that of ordinary companies or consortiums. From these aspects, all those who have achieved success in the mobile phone industry are strong multinational companies that develop mobile phones and enter the mobile phone industry. Not to mention that Pang Yishan dare not think about it, maybe even the famous Li Chaoren in Xiangjiang dare not say such big talk.
Of course, Zhou Liwen would not be so stupid that he revealed the real information to outsiders. In the shock of Pang Yishan, he explained a few words with a smile, only saying that he was very interested in the MTK chip and Turnkey model that MediaTek is developing, and planned to see if there is any possibility of cooperation.
After hearing this, Pang Yishan suddenly realized and nodded and said that if this business could be done, it would be possible to invest. Pang Yishan, who was not familiar with technology, thought Zhou Liwen just wanted to use MediaTek's technology to engage in the mobile phone OEM business. After all, factories like this are not uncommon in the southeast.
"Zhou Sheng's business is getting bigger and bigger. If he set up a factory, can he let me earn a share?"
"Welcome! Others don't say it, but Lao Pang, if you want to invest, I welcome you, but I have agreed in advance, there are too many shares but there are not."
Pang Yishan laughed: "I don't even think so much money. Zhou Sheng knows my situation. Just look at your business and take some opportunity to benefit from it."
"OK!" Zhou Liwen agreed readily. Pang Yishan is his own person. If you have money, everyone will make money. He doesn't have much more than him, and he doesn't have much less. Taking this opportunity to tie him firmly to his side will only benefit Zhou Liwen and have no harm.
After chatting with a smile, Zhou Liwen asked, "Lao Pang, what do you think of the recent stock market?"
"Stock Market?" Hearing this term, Pang Yishan's expression suddenly became a little sad. Zhou Liwen reacted and quickly apologized: "Sorry, Lao Pang..."
"Nothing." Pang Yishan shook his head and sighed: "Millions of people in Xiangjiang, almost everyone is trading stocks. I was just unlucky back then. I don't know how many people jumped off the building that year, at least I'm not the worst one. But Zhou Sheng, you have asked the wrong person for this matter. You know that I have never paid attention to the stock market since I went bankrupt. It can be said that I have stayed away from it."
Zhou Liwen understood Pang Yishan's complex mood very well, but he still asked Pang Yishan to help him find a few experienced stock traders after returning to Xiangjiang. This work must be completed by mid-March at the latest, and he will go to Xiangjiang to interview candidates in person.
Pang Yishan was a little reluctant to say anything about Zhou Liwen's request, but in the end he took the commission and asked Zhou Liwen in detail about the candidate's request, and took out a small notebook he carried with him and recorded it carefully.
"When will Zhou Sheng prepare to interview candidates?"
"It's also mid-March, no later than March 16th."
Pang Yishan calculated the time and said confidently: "I will do this when I go back and I will give you the result within a week."
"Please trouble you Lao Pang."
"Nothing hassle, don't forget, I have to charge for this." Pang Yishan laughed self-deprecatingly, and Zhou Liwen burst into laughter after hearing this.
The car was close to Echeng, and Zhou Liwen called Sha Zihao in advance. Not long after entering the main road of Echeng, Zhou Liwen, who was driving, saw Sha Zihao's car parked on the side of the road from afar, and he was standing by the car with a smile, waving his hands.
"Boss Sha, didn't you agree to meet at the factory? You're also bothering you to come and pick us up." As soon as you stopped the car, Zhou Liwen got off the car and quickly stepped forward and smiled.
"The road to the factory is not easy to walk, and it's not too far anyway. I'm afraid you can't find it." Sha Zihao stepped forward enthusiastically and shook hands with Zhou Liwen. After saying this, he came to his ear and quietly said, "Brother Zhou, brother, I made arrangements today. After we go shopping, we will have fun at the nightclub tonight."
"You old Sha..." Zhou Liwen was amused and nodded vaguely. Sha Zihao patted the body beside him and greeted the driver. He got into Zhou Liwen's car by himself, and the two cars drove towards the factory not far away, one in front and one behind.
