Chapter 35 The five giants reunite

Chapter 35 The five giants reunite

February 4, 1982, the beginning of spring.

There are still a few days left on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. The excitement of the Spring Festival has not yet dissipated, but the atmosphere of the Lantern Festival is coming towards us. This is the most nostalgic time of the year: people who have worked hard for a year temporarily abandon the hard work of the past and can comfort themselves wholeheartedly; people who are full of expectations for the new year are planning future plans; young students plan to be admitted to the university they like; men and women in the flowering season plan to pursue their lovers; while children hope to get more New Year's money in the coming year.

On such a day, Yuan Hou came to Shanghai Railway Station alone. During the festival, there were not too many passengers coming from south to north. Most of them were cadres and employees who had to go on business because of business. If there were a few years, the surging crowd would not make him feel so good today. He only had a bag on his body, containing his changing clothes and a few coats that he could see. The rest were two Chinese cigarettes he had just gotten through relationships.

Yuan Hou held a train ticket to Guangdong tightly in his hand, and kept looking at the watch on his wrist. He felt that time passed too slowly. For the first time, he found that he was full of expectations for a place outside his home. He remembered that he would only feel this way when he was in the Great Northern Wilderness when he took the train back to Shanghai during the Chinese New Year.

"I wonder if they have changed in the past few years?" Yuan Hou asked to himself in his heart. Before the Spring Festival, he had just obtained a diploma from Shanghai University of Finance and Economics and studied accounting. The college students in their class were all assigned very good jobs, but Yuan Hou was an exception. To be precise, it was an exception in the entire school. Because he refused any decent jobs, he chose to go to Shenzhen. There was absolutely some objection from his parents and brothers at home, but Yuan Hou still reluctantly convinced his family. If you don't try it, how can you prove that he was wrong? This is what Li Siming once said, and Yuan Hou thought it made sense.

"The five brothers all know the roots and bottom of the situation, and there will definitely be hope for them together!" Yuan Hou was very confident in the future.

Over the years, Yuan Hou has been in contact with Li Siming and others. During the years of the Great Northern Wilderness, they became friends because of their common ideals or arrangements of destiny. In the hard years, they supported each other and tasted the ups and downs of destiny. They used to laugh, cry, indulge and be sad together. Now the years have passed, but this kind of relationship has become more mellow because of the distance between the world.

This seems to be God's arrangement: when life is most desperate, it gives us the most sincere friendship.

Almost at the same time, Li Siming took Xu Zijian and Zhang Hua to Shenzhen. However, Zeng Zhi calculated the time and leisurely rushed from Hong Kong to Shenzhen on the day he agreed to meet.

At the meeting place, the five brothers really got together for the first time since leaving the Great Northern Wilderness. This was the first time that Yuan Hou met everyone in the past four years, and he screamed in shock as soon as he met.

"Aming, Grand Marshal, Zhang Hua, Zeng Zhi, it's so exciting to see you!" Yuan Hou, who had not yet washed away his face, exclaimed from afar.

"Come and see, the monkeys in the Shanghai Zoo have fled to Shenzhen!" Zeng Zhi shouted at the running Yuan Hou.

"Oh, really, this Shanghai Zoo doesn't care about it. If tigers, lions and other things run out, it's going to be dangerous!" Zhang Hua echoed.

"What are you talking nonsense? Look, everyone is watching!" The general cursed his lips at the pedestrians on the roadside. Those pedestrians who were shocked by Zeng Zhi and Zhang Hua's lies and looked around and found out that they were fooled were all rolling their eyes at the five of them.

"I'll check and see if there are any changes." Yuan Hou looked around the people who came up, "The handsome man is still so handsome. He probably has good physical and mental health because of the nourishment of love. Zhang Hua seems to have lost weight. It's not because he was dumped by a woman? Alas, a gentleman doesn't speak! Zeng Zhi is the image of a capitalist young master. Why can't I see it back then? As for Ah Ming..."

"Tell me what happened to Amin?" Zhang Hua slapped Yuan Hou "gently" and threatened, "If you don't want to spit out ivory again, I'll collect your body today!"

"The monkey's mouth can't spit out ivory at first. Isn't this a forceful person?" Zeng Zhi said with a smile.

"Amin, this seems not to be the Amin I knew before. It seems to be more complicated than before, and it feels indescribable. Although it is as handsome as before, it has not become ugly." Yuan Hou said for a long time.

"You guys, isn't this a slutty man? Look for a fight!" Li Siming was angry by Yuan Hou's words. The five people fought and rushed to their destination - the land belonging to Li Siming. Of course, this land was "nominally" rented by Hong Kong MSI Technology Co., Ltd., which is the land of the boss Zeng Zhizeng, the owner of MicroTech Company. On the map, Li Siming felt it was very good. It was on the verge of Shenzhen Bay and has famous landmarks such as OCT, Bright China, and Window of the World in the future.

When he arrived at the destination, Li Siming felt that this land was too valuable.

"This place is really big. I think it can be used to build a small airport!" Xu Dashuai said happily.

"It's still because there are some people in the court who are easy to be an official. No, it should be because there are some officials in the court who are easy to make money!" Yuan Hou sighed.

"It's not as exaggerated as you. We are serving the country with science and technology and industry. What's the point of using some land?" Li Siming said.

In a restaurant, while drinking, everyone discussed their future plans.

"Amin, now you should tell me what you think, right?" said Dashuai.

Li Siming looked at the people staring at him. He summoned the brothers over, of course not to reminisce about the past. He had a grand blueprint waiting for the brothers to explore.

"The future direction is mainly electronics, one is the research and development of integrated circuits, including computer processors, and the other is the wireless communication technology industry. These two aspects are now high-tech, and countries have not invested a lot of manpower and material resources. The gap between our country in this regard is not small, and our gap was not so big ten years ago. But this industry is my major, and I can tell everyone seriously that I can guarantee to be ahead of others in technology. Although I cannot turn all the knowledge in my mind into real things, it is priceless for other specialized talents. Well, this is a big boast!" Li Siming said with confidence, but his words made everyone frown, and he also felt that it was a bit too big.

"Amin, what you said is serious, you won't mess with us, right?" Zhang Hua said.

"Of course not. The situation I was at Peking University was clear about. I was sleeping in the laboratory and information room every day." Li Siming couldn't explain it clearly, so he had to use his experience back then as a proof.

"I can prove this. However, Amin, let's put aside these high-tech technologies in the future for the time being, you don't seem to have that much money now, right?" Dashuai said doubtfully.

"So I'm making movies now! Don't worry, I can guarantee enough money to invest." Li Siming said, "You don't know that you can earn hundreds of millions of dollars in a movie in the United States, which is unimaginable. Although it's very profitable, it has no value for the improvement of a country's technological strength."

"Amin plans to go to the United States to make a movie." Zeng Zhi interrupted.

"I understand that you have no confidence in my plan. Anyone with a normal IQ will think I am crazy, but I hope you will give me another year to prove that I have the ability to raise funds. Is this the best?" Li Siming looked full of hope. He knew that the brothers could get together because of the most sincere friendship between them, not his "magnificent blueprint". He felt deeply apologized in his heart.

"Aming, look at what you said, it seems like we left you behind and ignored you." Zhang Hua was dissatisfied with Li Siming's begging tone, "That piece of land is used to grow vegetables and can do something!" Everyone nodded, without objection.

"In the future, no matter how our company is, we focus on two aspects, one is technology and the other is talent, and we have to walk on two legs. This is the key to the success of a technology company.

After the company was established, I was not in a hurry to produce and manufacture, but first set up a laboratory, invest as much money as possible, and look for scholars or scientists who have studied abroad to study. The research results will become our patents and let foreigners act in the faces. I have made preliminary actions in this regard. At present, more than ten people from Peking University have received my funding. They will go to the United States to study next summer. In the future, they will become the backbone of our company's science and technology. I want to attract more international students to return to China to serve through them. This investment is worth it. I want to laugh when I think about it.

At the same time, we must introduce and cultivate excellent management talents, manage enterprises in accordance with modern advanced management systems, and make the management level of enterprises truly in line with the international level. If one day, our company will be destroyed by a big fire, but as long as these two points exist, I believe we can still start from scratch." Li Siming delivered his own speech.

The listeners were stunned. They were shocked by Li Siming's thoughts. Li Siming's plan was obviously larger than they thought, and Li Siming had obviously thought about it.

"Well, I can't wait!" Zeng Zhi sighed, "It seems that the most urgent thing is to make more money."

"Of course, we are doing high-tech, and we cannot form productivity for the time being, and we will not start large-scale production as soon as we start. Instead, we will do research first and do technical accumulation first. While doing research, I plan to invest in home appliances, such as color TVs, refrigerators, and air conditioners. These are faster and less difficult. If they go smoothly, they can effectively support our high-tech industry. At present, in terms of pure manufacturing, there is at least twenty years of profit margin. Even if we don't produce in the future, we can still lead in home appliance technology and become a technology leader in the market." Li Siming thought of making his company a technology supplier, or even a technical standard setter. However, all of this requires time to prove, maybe successful, or failed, but Li Siming is willing to give it a try. That American Gates also needs time to prove that the building was not built in one day.

There is a saying that third-rate companies sell products, second-rate companies sell brands, and first-rate companies sell standards. Only companies that are capable of formulating technical standards are truly powerful. Standards are actually a game rule. Whoever has the right to formulate standards, and whose technology becomes the standard will have the initiative in the market. The commanding heights of technological competition lies in the standards. The standards will affect an industry, and whoever sets standards will be recognized by the industry will gain great market and economic benefits from it.

Unfortunately, China's emphasis on "standard strategy" comes from China's entry into WTO. Before joining WTO, foreign countries can impose large tariffs on products imported from China. However, after joining WTO, foreign countries lose the barrier to tariffs on these products. Most of the products exported by China are labor-intensive and have relatively certain price advantages, which poses a certain threat to the European and American markets. In order to eliminate this threat, countries use technical trade barriers that are to increase the technical standard indicators of products to prevent large-scale imports of Chinese products. In my country's national standards, the ratio of using international standards is less than 40%, while 60% of my country's export companies have encountered foreign technical barriers, which causes direct and potential economic losses of about US$50 billion each year.

As a result, the Chinese government began to pay attention to industrial standards and has achieved remarkable results. The famous ones include the later evd DVD standards, the 3G standards - TD-Scdma and the wireless network encryption standards - Wapi. At the same time, the formulation of these standards has also caused panic among foreign companies, which has in turn caused boycotts and opposition from certain Western governments.

"As for the organizational structure of the company, the only boss in name is me. Everyone has to pay the party dues every month. Let me bear all the sins!" Zeng Zhi chuckled, "At the same time, in the British Virgin Islands, we registered an offshore company, which owns MSI, which is wholly owned by the five of us. Amin is the largest shareholder, accounting for 50%. Sorry, I am a brother, and I will account for 20% of the remaining ones."

"We didn't do anything and got 10% of our shareholding. It's not appropriate." The coach said embarrassedly.

"I don't like to listen to you. To put it nicely, that's modest, and to put it badly, that's hypocritical!" Zeng Zhi refused, "All the past have been, are there few cases of lawsuits against brothers for their property?"

"Everyone, we are still short of money at the moment, but if it goes well in the future, I can guarantee that even if we only have one percent of our equity, we will have a place on the Asian Rich List!" Li Siming said confidently, "Of course, it is the most important to better reflect the value of the five of us. Don't refuse this equity allocation."

Dashuai and others nodded in agreement.

"Amin, I'm afraid there is no money to develop the land now. I suggest that we circle it first, build a wall, and hang our sign, occupying the land is king. Oh no, it should be the main area. Otherwise, the government department will have opinions. We can also call on some workers to slowly level the land in the wall, build roads, etc. In short, it means that we have started construction! At the same time, we should start to establish good relations with the government departments now, and use all the relationships that should be used." Dashuai suggested.

"Good idea, Grandmaster, you are even more traitor than Amin!" Zeng Zhi commented.

"All businessmen are not traitorous!" Zhang Hua laughed, "Anyway, we have all become businessmen now, so it's not impossible to be a kind-hearted businessman."

Yuan Hou picked up the wine glass and smiled at the corner of his mouth: "Today we are five brothers reunited, no, we should ask the five giants to reunited. To celebrate, we have this cup."

"Cheers to the Big Five!" Everyone raised their wine glasses and fucked them all.

The wine enters the stomach and intestines, like fire burning, but gives people strength.
