1380 Gap: One hundred percent!(1/2)
This classmate is his high school classmate. After the college entrance examination, he was admitted to medical school.
As a classmate, he was admitted to the mechanical engineering major of Harbin Institute of Technology. In their era, this major was quite popular.
After this brother graduated, he worked in a central enterprise for a period of time.
Later, he went to work in the south and worked in the Magic City and Yangcheng.
And the industry he mainly focuses on is actually elevators.
The first unit he worked for was Mitsubishi Elevator, which was cooperated with Magic City in Japan. Later, he went to Yangcheng, and also went to Audis, which cooperated with foreign capital. Both companies are elevator industries.
So I can say that I have a very good understanding of this industry.
Later, because he encountered the outbreak of the domestic real estate tide, he, a very smart classmate, simply came out to work alone.
At the beginning, I was acting as an agent for several elevator manufacturers and recommended their own elevators to real estate companies across the country.
Then he soon accumulated his first pot of gold, and then began to invest in some real estate projects, and then bought some real estate projects by himself.
He soon became a small billionaire, but his classmate was still very sensible.
As early as a few years ago, I realized that the real estate market might change, and many small and medium-sized real estate developers might not be able to afford to eat or live.
So he chose to withdraw early, and after more than ten years of thrust, he also saved up billions of dollars.
According to common sense, he has already achieved financial freedom and has long been able to choose to retire early and enjoy life.
But Guan Zhenhai said that his old classmate just couldn't stay at home.
And I always liked to tinker with machinery in my early years. After quitting the real estate industry, I kept thinking about what I was doing.
But after choosing, I didn’t choose any suitable investment direction.
He doesn't know much about investing in e-commerce, and now the competition for e-commerce is so fierce, it's a bit unwise to go in.
He didn't know much about going to other industries, so he finally chose his old career and chose to re-enter the elevator industry.
But this time, his friend, was not planning to act as an agent for someone else's elevator, but to develop and build an elevator by himself.
"Well, in recent years, the real estate industry has been so prosperous? Isn't there no elevator in our country?"
When Guan Zhenhai talked about this, his friend, planned to make a major breakthrough in the field of domestic elevators.
And it seems that you have to devote yourself wholeheartedly.
Xiao Feng, He Xiaojun, He Fangzhou and the others were stunned.
I haven't paid much attention to this field before. They really don't know much about the domestic elevator industry.
At this time, Guan Zhenhai heard several big shots asking, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Hi! I didn't know before. It was only after I got online with my old friend that I realized that our domestic elevator industry is so much worse than others!"
After hearing what he said, Xiao Feng and the others couldn't help but become even more curious? Especially Xiao Feng, he really didn't know that there were so many things to say about the elevator he had to take almost every day.
"Oh? How many are there? Tell me."
The smile on Guan Zhenhai's face was very bitter at this time. He glanced at Xiao Feng and then said.
"Mr. Xiao? You may not believe it. The gap between our domestic elevators and foreign elevators is even worse than that in the automotive and chip fields."
"For example, automobiles, many domestic brands in our country can produce engines and transmissions by themselves. Their level may be one level lower than those major international manufacturers."
"When it comes to chips, although we are about five generations behind the top chips in the world, we can at least produce them."
"But when it comes to elevators, haha, the gap between us and foreign countries is 100%, and there is almost no one in China who can have assets!"
“WTF!”
"What?"
"No..."
After Guan Zhenhai said this, the other three bigwigs present were all stunned.
I heard Guan Zhenhai say so evilly before. They thought that our domestic elevators and foreign brands were just in terms of quality.
But now after Guan Zhenhai said this, they realized that there were so many people in our elevator that were different from others.
One hundred percent!
This is simply unimaginable, especially China, which is known as the entire industrial chain.
Is this too incredible?
"Hi, how do you say this? Don't look at the elevators installed in the building, they seem to be a very inconspicuous device."
"But in fact, the technical content of this thing is quite high."
"The elevators used to be purely mechanical. To put it bluntly, they rely on the control panel, and then added with the car, counterweight, and gear reducer."
"The working principle is very simple. After the personnel enter the elevator, press down the floor. Then the computer program in the chip behind the control panel will assign instructions to the counterweight box based on the floor and the weight of the personnel entering the elevator. Then, after the counterweight block is allocated, the elevator will be pulled and lifted."
"When the floor is almost at the stop, there will be a gear reducer to stop and slow down..."
"The process seems very simple, but the internal program settings are actually very complicated. Moreover, such equipment requires very high requirements for steel cables that drag the car. Steel cables made of special steel must be used."
"After repeated use of steel cables made of ordinary steel, severe wear, corrosion, etc. will occur."
"So the elevators in the early years actually had very high requirements for materials..."
Guan Zhenhai began to explain common sense about elevators to everyone.
Of course, this is also to recommend his friend to these big guys, so he worked so hard.
And his knowledge about elevators was also explained to him by his old classmate after many contacts with his old classmate.
Otherwise, how could he, a person with a scalpel, know so much?
However, the three big guys on the other side didn't hate his popular science like this.
Because of different majors, people didn’t know about this knowledge before, but now after listening to the popular science Guan Zhenhai gave to you.
Only then did everyone know that there was so much high-tech on a seemingly inconspicuous elevator.
At this time, Xiao Feng also remembered his friend, Mr. Wan's father.
Speaking of which, when this big boss was at the forefront of the domestic real estate industry, he had already started to prepare for the future and planned to change careers.
Because as a business tycoon, his forward-looking vision is naturally unparalleled.
As the saying goes, when others are caring, you must know fear.
At that time, this big man realized that there is no good day for the sky and no good day for the flowers to be red.
Although the domestic real estate market is so hot, the real estate economy cannot last for a long time.
Sooner or later he will end and withdraw.
At that time, this big guy was already thinking about doing something else.
When choosing a new investment industry, this big guy chose to invest in an elevator.
Because he is in the real estate industry, he naturally knows how bad our country is in the elevator field.
It can be said that almost all domestic elevators, from escalators to box elevators, need to be imported.
In his opinion, this is a big market. You must know that there are so many high-level executives built in the country every year.
How many elevators do you need?
Moreover, with so many elevators, future maintenance, and replacement of parts, it is all money.
So building an elevator is an industry that is worth long-term investment and operation.
So the boss planned to enter the elevator industry back then.
Unfortunately, the research team he sent only went to this industry for a while and was dissuaded from leaving.
Because the research report given to him by this research team shows that with current domestic technology, we want to make breakthroughs in the elevator field.
That's almost impossible!
Because the technical gap between our domestic elevator field and foreign companies is almost as far as the earth and the moon.
Although this is a bit exaggerated, it is enough to reflect how big the technical gap between us and foreign countries in the elevator field.
And that big guy really didn't make up his mind.
Because of investing in the elevator industry, it is destined to be an industry with large investment, long cycles, and not necessarily results.
So as a business tycoon who prefers to seek profit and avoid harm, he chose to give up.
Of course, this is what Mr. Wan talked to him before when he was chatting with Mr. Wan.
But before he talked about it, when his father gave up this industry, Mr. Wan shook his head and felt a pity for it.
Because it was a pity that I missed this opportunity back then, if his father could really seize it.
If his father was really willing to spend money hard on this project back then, he could really make a breakthrough in this field.
So even if their family can't become another H company today.
At least it is another company like Midea, Gree and Haier.
