Chapter 1121 Xie Jiannan’s determination

The site of Kewang Hi-Tech and Xinyuan mobile phone factory is located on the west side of Kewang Jinshan Factory. A few days before the groundbreaking ceremony, a clearing space was opened on the side of the lawn near the road, and a platform was also set up. Last night, a bloody red carpet was laid, but no news was announced. I drove by there today and saw a group of people standing on the side of the road, Xie Jiannan knew that their actions here had officially started.

According to public information, Kewang Hi-Tech and Xinyuan Electric will build assembly factories in Kingsoft with a total annual production capacity of 10 million mobile phones. However, judging from the scale of the first phase of land use and the scale of the second phase of construction land reserved by the Kingsoft Municipal Government for it, the actual ambitions of Kewang Hi-Tech and Xinyuan Electric are probably much larger than what they announced to the public.

The construction speed of the assembly factory is quite fast. While the factory is being built, employee recruitment and training work are also started at the same time. Judging from the preliminary recruitment scale of Kewang Hi-Tech and Xinyuan Electric Appliances in Kingsoft City, it is afraid that in a year, the production capacity of the two companies in Kingsoft will exceed 10 million pieces.

Xie Jiannan stood in front of the conference room window on the west side of the office building, looking at the scene of the groundbreaking ceremony in the west.

After obtaining a mobile phone license last year, Kewang Hi-Tech's annual sales volume exceeded one million pieces with the gem series of mobile phones, with sales reaching 3 billion, and profits of nearly 500 million. It was considered a dark horse that emerged in the domestic electronics industry last year, and will also squeeze into the top 50 top 100 electronics industry with this excellent performance.

At this time, Kewang Hi-Tech seemed to the outside world that it was quite visionary to build an assembly factory with an annual production capacity of 10 million mobile phones.

Xinyuan Electric has not obtained a mobile phone license, but it has been two years since it intervened in the production of mobile phone assembly accessories. After Aida's production capacity was insufficient last year, it did not rush to expand the scale of its downstream assembly factory, but instead handed over some orders to Xinyuan Electric, which thus entered the ranks of mobile phone OEM enterprises. Since Xinyuan Electric can obtain a certain amount of core components such as mobile phone chips and LCD screens from Kumho, it also has its own component production capacity. Since the end of last year, some domestic mobile phone manufacturers plagued by the shortage of component supply have also handed over some production orders to Xinyuan Electric to complete. Even so, the scale of the mobile phone production department of Xinyuan Electric is still very limited, and building an assembly factory with an annual production capacity of 10 million mobile phones in Kingsoft fully exposes its ambitions.

Unfortunately, the outside world cannot see Kewang Hi-Tech. Xinyuan Electric has greater ambitions behind the public capacity expansion plan, and behind this is Kumho's ambitions.

At noon, Xie Jiannan learned from the TV news that at the groundbreaking ceremony in the morning, Lianqi Telecom, a subsidiary of China Unicom, specializing in mobile phone customization business, signed a custom procurement contract with a total of 3 million mobile phones, and Lianxin and Xinyuan Electric signed an OEM production agreement with a total of 1 million mobile phones.

In a TV interview, Ding Wenxiang, chairman of Xinyuan Electric Appliances, announced that in order to concentrate on doing a good job in mobile phone OEM, Xinyuan Electric Appliances will give up its efforts to directly sell its own brand mobile phones in the next few years.

In recent years, Xinyuan Electric has developed much smoother than Ke Wang. It was squeezed into the top 100 electronics industry list as early as 1998. Xinyuan Electric knew its technological weakness and had no strength to replicate Kumho's technological development path, so it focused on strengthening the scale of its mid-to-downstream components and assembly factories.

In the past two years, Aida Electronics' annual sales of disc machines has been more than 8 million units. Their own factories actually only undertake less than one-third of the production tasks, and the rest are handed over to SGUO OEM; even the disc machines sold by SGUO in Europe and the United States have been handed over to SGUO OEM. In addition to traditional consumer electronic products, SGUO Electric is the only company in China that has obtained the technology authorization of Kumho IPlayer and flash disk product.

The scale of Xinyuan's factory in Haizhou is even larger than that of Ida Group. This time, Kumho brought Xinyuan Electric to join forces. Due to the lag in technology development and component production capacity of domestic mobile phone manufacturers, Xinyuan Electric, which has obtained Kumho support, may not be without the possibility of shining in the mobile phone OEM business.

The beginning is finally kicking off!

Xie Jiannan sighed slightly. From the TV news camera, he saw that only Zhang Yaping, the CEO of the Components Department, was present at the Jinhu area. He could see some clues: Jinhu supplies major components, including Kewang Hi-Tech, Lianxin and Xinyuan Electric.

After the news of the foundation laying ceremony was broadcast, the TV camera turned around, but it was news that the Secretary of the Kingsoft Municipal Party Committee invited guests to visit Chenxi Community on the west bank of the Yinma River. Xinguang Paper Factory also appeared in the camera. Xie Jiannan saw Zhang Ke's figure from the crowd. It turned out that others were also in Kingsoft. He did not attend the foundation laying ceremony here, but ran over to visit Chenxi Community.

Xie Jiannan suddenly grabbed the cell phone on the table and found Zhang Ke's number.

He had never called this number before, but he knew that he could directly contact Zhang Ke through this number. After staring at the number for two seconds, he gritted his teeth and dialed.

Xie Jiannan thought that Zhang Ke might ignore it and hand over his cell phone to the people around him for processing, and he was even more likely that he had no idea who made the call.

In a blink of an eye, Xie Jiannan thought of many thoughts until Zhang Ke's familiar and slightly sandy voice came over: "I am Zhang Ke, what's the matter with Mr. Xie?"

"..." Xie Jiannan suddenly felt a little reluctant to ask for a meeting. He hesitated for a few seconds and was sure that Zhang Ke was not impatient. He asked, "I just watched the TV news and found out that you came to Kingsoft today. I wonder if I can meet you?"

"I'm having lunch at the paper mill and I'm almost finished. I'm sorry I can't invite you to dinner. You have to be convenient. I'll wait for you here..."

At 10 o'clock in the morning, the Municipal Party Committee Secretary Zhao Youlun accompanied the senior management of China Unicom and Yu Ping of Kewang Hi-Tech, Ding Wenxiang, and others from Xinyuan Electric Appliances to visit Chenxi Community and returned to the city for dinner. Xie Jiannan did not expect that Zhang Ke was still in the paper mill and did not refuse his request to meet.

Xie Jiannan immediately grabbed his coat and notified the driver to drive him to the other side of the Yinma River.

The factory area of ​​Xinguang Paper Kingsoft Factory is not particularly eye-catching except for its large and tidyness. There are very few people who can be seen in the factory, all of which are in the workshop. When you drive past the factory, you will find Chenxi Community, which is a model community for post-disaster reconstruction by Jiangnan Province. There are no communities in the city that are higher in the specifications than here.

Bypassing Paper Factory Street, heading to Chenxi Square where Zhang Ke made an appointment to meet. I saw Zhang Ke standing in the center of the circular square with his hands, squinting his eyes at the building to the north, which is also the commercial center of Chenxi Community.

Since there is nothing in the new district, Xie Jiannan occasionally comes here to entertain guests. He doesn't know what Zhang Ke is doing while standing there, so he can't go outside to pick him up.

When Xie Jiannan saw Zhang Ke noticed that he was coming by, he nodded slightly and did not intend to come out of the square to greet him. Of course, Xie Jiannan did not have these extravagant expectations. He asked the driver to park the car on the side of the road and get off the car and walk over. When he reached the edge of the square, Xie Jiannan noticed that Fu Jun and several bodyguards were standing on the edge of the north side of the square, and there were still several cars parked there. It seemed that Zhang Ke was waiting to leave here.

Xie Jiannan followed Zhang Ke's sight and looked north. It was a large supermarket newly opened in Chenxi Community. Since Chenxi Community has formed a considerable residential scale since its completion date, such a large supermarket covering an area of ​​3,000 to 4,000 square meters, which is not a small-scale one, is not deserted even if it is located in the center of Kingsoft.

The supermarket is open on the second floor, and the ground floor is facing the street with Kent Chicken. Bao Fuji two neat fast food restaurants and an exquisitely decorated women's beauty shop. There are two open doors to enter. Xie Jiannan walked here for two or three times and knew the layout inside. From the passage, there was a large bookstore and audio-visual store. When you walked into the internal hall, there was an elevator that led directly to the supermarket on the second floor. Bypassing the elevator, behind it was a pedestrian shopping street that led directly to the community.

Xie Jiannan didn't know what Zhang Ke was standing here to observe these things, but he seemed to see his expression very carefully.

"I met Secretary Tao Jin in Jianye yesterday. He talked to me about the rise in Jianye's housing prices... "Zhang Ke knew some questions and Xie Jiannan would not ask directly, so he simply explained to him the reason why he stood alone in the square.

"There is too much demand, and the marketization process is suddenly relaxed, and the forces of rising housing prices are afraid that they will not be able to curb it for the time being." Xie Jiannan talked about his opinion. Eventually, although the transfer of all the rights and interests of Jincheng Real Estate to the Yan family's Hongxin Investment does not mean that he no longer pays attention to the real estate market.

"Well, I answered Secretary Tao Jin in this way," Zhang Ke nodded and said, "Beijing and Shanghai are the first cities to relax the domestic real estate market. In terms of the current media's view, it has long exceeded the scope that citizens can afford, especially those middle- and low-income families..."

"Aren't all regions engaged in affordable housing? While the housing welfare system for urban employees has been reformed, the Central Committee and the State Council have issued affordable housing policies almost at the same time, hoping to solve some middle- and low-income families, which may have some effect..." Xie Jiannan said.

Zhang Ke shook his head and smiled. The government's affordable housing has some of the dual-track price system. When the domestic system was still relatively chaotic, the real estate market's dual-track price system only provided a small group of people with more power to seek rent. 1999 was the first year of the central government's implementation of affordable housing policies and the first year of in-depth reform of the domestic real estate market. The number of affordable housing construction accounts for 15% of all residential construction, which can be said to be the most glorious year, but it did not alleviate the housing difficulties of middle- and low-income families. In the following years, the proportion of affordable housing construction in the scale of affordable housing became smaller and smaller, which did not have much impact on solving the housing problems of middle- and low-income families and suppressing housing prices.

"What's the matter with me?" Zhang Ke asked. There was no need to continue to discuss the real estate issue with Xie Jiannan, and ask him the reason why he suddenly met him.

"Kumho is very determined. Maybe in less than two years, Kumho will be able to dominate the mid- and low-end mobile phone market?" Xie Jiannan carefully chose the right words and expressed the meaning he wanted to express in a suitable tone.

"There are many things that are not enough to have determination," said Zhang Ke. It is impossible to confuse everyone. Over the years, the grudges and grudges with the Xie family have been deeply entangled. If anyone outsiders knows Jinhu best, I am afraid that there are only people from Kewang. He glanced at Xie Jiannan and said, "Who knows what changes will happen in the mobile phone market in two years? Two years later, China Mobile's communication network will be fully upgraded to the GPRS era. Even mid- and low-end mobile phones will fully adopt GPRS basic frequency chipsets. We are not sure that we can develop GPRS basic frequency chipsets in two years. It is too early to say this at this time..."

Xie Jiannan was not sure what Zhang Ke said to him was true. Kumho had long used Deyi's mobile phone chipset to launch GPRS mobile phones to markets in Singapore, Hong Kong and other places. With Kumho's ambition, he should be prepared for the development of GPRS basic frequency chipsets. He could only continue to say in Zhang Ke's tone: "After China Mobile fully upgrades the communication network, China Unicom will continue to operate the G** network for a long time, while maintaining the G** network, and also build a CDMA network to develop mid- and high-end customers. In addition to China Unicom, Southeast Asia, South Asia and other emerging countries and places with underdeveloped economies, there are many temple parties who will use the G** network for a long time. These places will also be areas where Kumho will develop mid- and low-end markets. In these areas, Kewang Hi-Tech's channel resources are still slightly larger..."

Speaking of this, Xie Jiannan stared at Zhang Ke. Even if he immediately heard the words of rejection from Zhang Ke's mouth, he would not be very surprised.

Zhang Ke pursed his lips slightly, and he knew Xie Jiannan's intention to suddenly come to the door.

When Kewang first developed the Southeast Asian market, the development of this market can be said to be the last straw that overwhelmed Ge Mingxin and his son. The continued losses suffered during the Southeast Asian financial crisis were ultimately borne by Ge Mingxin and his son, but the channel resources were solid and left to Kewang. Kewang's electronic products such as discs, TVs, audio and other electronic products were successfully transported to these countries and localities at this time. Xie Jiannan still wanted to intervene in the mobile phone business. Even if he could not obtain a mobile phone license and could not enter the domestic mobile phone market for the time being, Kewang could still use the existing channel resources to sell mobile phones to Southeast Asia and even South Asia, African countries and regions to jointly participate in the feast of digital mobile phones.

In China, it would be fine if state-owned enterprises directly obtain mobile phone licenses from the Ministry of Information and Industry. If Kewang wants to intervene in the production and export of mobile phones, they must first become a member of the Digital Mobile Phone Technology Promotion Association to obtain a large amount of technical resources. They also need to obtain the element accessories and components of mobile phones required for production from Kumho and related companies. Kumho is a level that Kumho must cross. Without Kumho's permission, even if Kewang forcibly enters the mobile phone industry, he will not have much effect.

"..." Zhang Ke did not feel refreshed because Xie Jiannan asked to come to the door. At this time, Xie Jiannan gave people a much calmer feeling, he also put away his sharpness, and had the temperament of being able to bend and stretch. He paused for a moment and said, "Okay, I ask Jinhu to be as consistent as possible for internal and external parties, and different external cooperative units should also be as consistent as possible, and would not give Kewang any special preferential policies alone. If Kewang plans to cooperate with us in the mobile phone business, I hope you can understand..."

Of course, Xie Jiannan did not expect to receive preferential treatment from Jinhu. He was just worried about being particularly discriminated against. Zhang Ke always maintained an official attitude, and he had nothing particularly worried about.

Vietnam and Thailand's economic recovery is relatively satisfactory, and the amount of investment in mobile communications is also large. Xie Jiannan considers that Ke Wang wants to intervene in the mobile phone business. It is impossible to get a license in China in a short period of time. It is a good choice for overseas markets to start from Vietnam and Thailand first. Perhaps the Indian market can also be considered.

After unexpectedly meeting Xie Jiannan in the central square of Chenxi Community, Zhang Ke drove directly from Kingsoft to Xinting. Along the way, he did not carefully decide that King Co. would first develop his mobile phone business from overseas. He was still thinking about real estate and affordable housing.

Hongyuan has had experience in building large-scale residential communities since 1995. In order to resettle families relocated during the renovation of Shatin’s old city, it built a large residential community with a total construction area of ​​1.2 million square meters in the eastern suburbs of the city in four years, which accommodated nearly 80,000 residents, which was almost equivalent to the population size of the two towns in the eastern region. It has become the largest community group in Haizhou City. Chengnan District even set up a special street-level administrative agency.

Due to the nature of the old city renovation resettlement housing, many public facilities including two kindergartens, a primary school, community health centers, community parks, garbage stations, administrative and police station office buildings were also donated to build. Although the total development is as high as one million square meters, the total construction cost exceeds one billion yuan, due to the strict restrictions on sales prices, Hongyuan's final direct income was quite limited, only 20 to 30 million yuan, and the profit margin was less than 3%.

Even if the domestic residential market was far from launching before 1998, real estate developers had not yet separated their roles from builders, and the industry's profit level was far more than 3%.

The real income of Hongyuan Construction is in the implementation of 60,000 square meters of affiliated commercials. After the establishment of Century Kumho Real Estate, this part of the assets was discounted by 120 million yuan to be included in Century Kumho Real Estate. At this time, the annual rental income has reached more than 20 million yuan. With the development of urban construction and the increase in residents' income level, the rental income of affiliated commercial facilities will also be greatly increased.

Since the 60,000 square meters of attached commercial facilities cannot meet the needs of the entire community, Century Kumho will also renovate and expand the commercial facilities in the community, which will increase the area of ​​30,000 to 40,000 square meters.

If you have any regrets, it is that the residents in the community do not have the habit of paying property fees. They even believe that the commercial facilities in the community are public property, and they are confident in refusing to pay property fees. Century Kumho Real Estate has to subsidize the entire community with an additional property fee of more than 2 million yuan every year.

In the consciousness of many people, even in the consciousness of internal personnel of Jinhu, Hongyuan initially undertakes the construction of resettlement communities, and also feels that it is mainly to increase political points for Tang Xueqian to the political struggles in Haizhou City at that time. He never expected how much direct profits he could get, and he did not expect that there would be a result of unintentional planting willows and willows.
