Monster Factory - 438

The Caohejing Development Zone of Shanghai City is one of the development zones with the most intensive technology industry in Shanghai.

There are four major industries: microelectronics, optoelectronics, computer machine software, and new materials.

[Lantuo Electronic Technology Company] is located in this development zone.

Landtop Electronics was established 19 years ago. At that time, China was still in the era of electronic technology products that lagging behind Europe and the United States. Anyone who wants to wear a Motorola or Nokia in his waist can be stared at for a long time.

Starting from the earliest production of learning machines, Landtop Electronics quickly followed the rapid development of China’s electronic technology industry. In 2004, the company officially entered the mobile phone manufacturing industry.

At that time, the domestic mobile phone market was flourishing, including Amoi, Bird, Capitel, Kejian, and Panda. These domestic brands once defeated Nokia and Motorola, occupying the top spot in domestic mobile phone sales.

Bird mobile phone, the fighter in the mobile phone.

At that time, it was thought that the domestic mobile phone broke out completely and challenged the golden age of foreign brands.

Lantuo is considered the second generation company to enter the mobile phone market. With a model that imitated the Nokia 1100 and added a color screen, but the lower price of the Lantuo mobile phone, it set a record of 50,000 units in a single month.

Unfortunately, five years later, foreign brand mobile phones have entered an earth-shaking development stage, and various new technologies have sprung up.

Amoi fell, and Bird, the country’s top seller, fell precipitously.

Lantop is also very popular among students because of its main low-end brands and the addition of cameras and a variety of beautiful casings to its mobile phones.

At the same time, the boss Tao Jian focuses on Southeast Asia, avoiding the bloody domestic market, and can maintain substantial profits even when the domestic independent brands are all over.

At that time, Tao Jian was infinitely beautiful, and India and Thailand created even more brilliant sales results.

The good times didn’t last long. Starting from 2009, smart phones began to spread slowly. HTC’s first Android machine, by the year 10, Apple launched the defying Apple 4. Now let alone domestic mobile phone brands, even those foreign mobile phone giants have to cry with their sheets.

They simply believe that smartphones will only take up half of the country. As a result, even the sweeping aunts now have one in hand, and it is a joy to grab red envelopes.

After struggling for almost 20 years, at the end of the battle, the equipment was upgraded to a smart phone assembly line.

As a result, the replacement of smart phones is faster, so fast that Tao Jian can’t grasp the context of the market.

“Dad~ If the factory sells, what will these workers do?” A young man with glasses, who looked gentle, standing in the neat electronics production workshop, asked Chong Taojian anxiously: “Besides, this factory is yours for a lifetime. You’ve worked hard, when I sent me to study in the U.S., wasn’t it just to learn advanced technology? I just developed a new technology and got a degree certificate. You told me to sell the factory?”

“Workers have severance pay, and those who are willing to go to Zhongshi to continue to work will also recruit there. They have the craftsmanship in them, so they don’t have to worry about finding a job.”

“I told the old guys that the factory was going to sell, and they even said that I was lucky enough to find a company willing to take over.”

Tao Jian, who rarely changed into a suit, patted his son on the shoulder: “Times have changed. My dream of revitalizing China’s manufacturing industry has been realized by others.”

“Now, although China is still far behind in electronic technology, we have everything that should be. Unlike twenty years ago, even a mobile phone screen could not be built.”

“But now that the mobile phone industry has solidified, which company is willing to buy us?”

Tao Liang pushed his glasses, puzzled and said, “Even HTC has fallen. Which company is willing to buy our factory with equipment but no technology.”

“It’s not a technology company. It’s a traditional heavy industrial company.” Tao Jian looked around at the factory around him: “It’s Giant Monster Heavy Industries. They will come over to inspect the factory and legal documents for the last time at 8 o’clock.”

“The glass hasn’t been wiped clean yet, I’ll wipe it.”

“Behemoth Heavy Industries? I have heard of their names in the United States. The ionization purifiers they produce can’t be bought in the United States even if they have money. But companies that do machinery and equipment, buy mobile phone factories, and they want to refurbish the production line and sell it to others? ”

“Dad, you won’t sell the factory cheaply? We still owe the bank 100 million yuan in loans, and tens of millions of business partners.” Tao Liang hurried to catch up.

“All the technical materials and license certificates are packaged together. Of course, they want to make a mobile phone.” Tao Jian carefully wiped the glass of the device with a towel, and said with emotion: “The negotiated price is 350 million, which is not a cheap sale. ”

“After repaying the bank loan and business partner’s money, we still have 200 million yuan left. After 20 years of hard work, I have saved 200 million in cash, and I will not fail.”

This may be the best ending. Tao Liang looked at the brand new mobile phone production lines that had just been maintained, and his father who was over 50 years old.

From its heyday, the family’s assets of nearly 500 million have shrunk to 200 million today. Tao Liang didn’t feel much lost in his heart. It’s just that the factory is sold, and my father’s goal is gone.

My dream seemed to disappear all at once.

Wasn’t the reason for studying hard and studying in the United States just to be able to carry the technical backbone of the factory?

Some confused Tao Liang stood in place at a loss. It’s like he doesn’t understand why Giant Monster Heavy Industries is interested in making mobile phones. Now that the factory is selling, he doesn’t know what he should do.

At eight o’clock in the morning, two Mercedes-Benz S600s and a minibus drove into the factory gate of Lantop Technology.

The boss Tao Jian, together with several management, greeted the arrival of Giant Monster Heavy Industries at the door.

Zhongyun and Shang Hai are not far away, Tao Jian has long heard of the name of Giant Monster Heavy Industry. Only when the door opened, Tao Jian didn’t expect to get out of the car. They were all young people about the same age as his son.

Tao Jian had also dealt with them several times before, during asset appraisal and preliminary talks. But today is different. Today is the day when the contract is signed, and several responsible persons have been sent by Giant Beast Heavy Industry.

Without time to think about it, Tao Jian and his management quickly stepped forward to greet them and greeted them with their familiar managers.

After introducing each other, Tao Jian pulled his son Tao Liang over again, and said with pride in his tone: “This is a dog, who has just returned from studying in the United States.”

Tao Liang’s face turned red immediately, what age is he, and he was called a dog…

He couldn’t say anything on this occasion, so he could only bite the bullet and shake hands with these young managers one by one.

Unexpectedly, these young managers showed some expressions of sympathy and sympathy.

Kong Tao also patted him on the shoulder and whispered, “My dad said the same when he introduced me. Just get used to it.”

Just such a small move made Tao Liang feel that he and them have a common language.

The subsequent process also confirmed Tao Liang’s views.

There is no sluggishness, nor any politeness of the old slickers in the mall. After drinking a cup of tea, these managers took the team and began to check the assembly line, review all the documents of the factory, and the financial status.

They have reviewed the status of the factory once before, and this time they mainly reviewed the financial aspects.

The review lasted until two o’clock in the afternoon, and Tao Liang was a little idle by his side. After graduating from university, he went to study in the United States for five years. The day before yesterday, he heard that his father was going to sell the factory, and he rushed back in a hurry, so he didn’t understand the financial situation of the factory in recent years.

This also gave him plenty of time to observe the team sent by Giant Beast Heavy Industries.

This company, Tao Liang, even in the United States, has heard of its name.

“Can you take the liberty to ask, do you really plan to make mobile phones when you buy a mobile phone factory?” Tao Liang couldn’t help but wondered, and asked the manager who had said a few words.

“A mechanical heavy industry company wants to build a mobile phone. It will be very strange if you change it.” Kong Tao smiled, with a good confidence hidden in his smile: “We are positioning the giant monster heavy industry as a technology industry company. ”

“Mechanics and electronics, these two are not parallel lines.”

Kong Tao pointed to his back: “For example, the equipment in this factory is used to produce mobile phones, and the technical content of the equipment determines the quality of the mobile phones.”

“We have the core technology of machining technology, and we are sure to make mobile phones that others can’t make.”

“Does your company… still recruit employees?” Tao Liang, who didn’t want to go back to the United States, was confused about his future. Suddenly, he had an idea to join them and make mobile phones together.

“I graduated from Tsinghua University, then studied at MIT and got a doctorate in electronic engineering.” Tao Liang scratched his head: “My mentor is Mr. Pi Mingcheng, a Chinese professor. Originally, my goal was to revitalize the company at home, but the company didn’t NS.”

“…”

Kong Tao suddenly looked at him with straight eyes.
