In 2006, the fastest growing real estate market was in the south, especially in Shenzhen, Dongguan, Guangzhou and other places. The price of a room was really one per day.
Because China's economy continues to move south, countless migrant workers have poured into big cities in the south, which has created a driving force for the rise in housing prices in these cities.
Take Shenzhen as an example. Because it is a special economic zone designated by the country's reform and opening up, the price increase has repeatedly exceeded that of municipalities such as Shanghai and Yanjing.
Even many new real estate policies, or new models of real estate, have emerged in this city and are spreading to other cities.
Sometimes when you say that you work in Shenzhen, it seems that you feel that it is a higher level than working in other cities.
However, such a city also has shortcomings, that is, there are too many immigrants, local culture has not yet been formed, and the immigrants have no sense of belonging.
For example, during the Spring Festival, the once bustling city suddenly seemed to be emptied out, with no one on the road.
However, this phenomenon is changing as more and more foreigners buy houses in Shenzhen and more and more people choose to settle in Shenzhen.
However, although the permanent population base continues to increase with the influx of people from outside, high housing prices also bring another hidden danger to Shenzhen. That is, after a period of time, it will cause the outflow of enterprises that are the basis for urban economic development.
Of course, this phenomenon is not obvious yet. Shenzhen is a city that is changing with each passing day. Countless new companies and new factories are opening every day, and countless immigrants line up to enter the factory. Let the whole city exude vitality many times more than mainland cities.
Yang Dongxu walked in the industrial park, followed by Ye Rongrong and others.
Compared with the past, Dongxu Technology and other enterprises jointly settled in the industrial park, which was just one of the industrial parks.
Currently, there is only one company, Dongxu Technology, in this industrial park that has just been built and put into use and covers an area of more than 1,000 acres.
Among them, more than the average area in the park is occupied by various types of research laboratories, so the security system of the entire park is tighter and stronger than a bank vault.
Access cards and the like are all child's play. Some laboratories have layers of protection and even have soldiers standing guard. I don't know how to check in and out. I thought you were entering a key research room of the Academy of Sciences.
Some of the technologies developed by these laboratories are the most advanced and cutting-edge technologies, and some are developed by laboratories in cooperation with the country.
At present, Tunghsu Technology has more than 35,000 researchers working on its own technologies alone. Adding in the researchers who have long-term cooperation with the state and Tunghsu Technology, the entire R&D team is nearly 50,000 people.
Of course, not all of these 50,000 people work in this park. There are many other researchers working in other research laboratories.
This is just the researchers of Dongxu Technology.
Now Yang Dongxu's major companies have more than 100,000 researchers combined, far more than any domestic company engaged in comprehensive industries.
For example, those large groups that are engaged in real estate, finance, securities, and even the video industry. If the number of researchers in all industry chains combined reaches 1,000, they are considered good companies that are keen on technology research and development.
As for Yang Dongxu, not counting Dongxu Technology, which has the largest proportion of R&D among all enterprises, there are 5,000 researchers in Huaxiu Textile Industry.
Not to mention China BMW, which has nearly 30,000 domestic and foreign automotive technology and material R&D personnel, second only to Dongxu Technology.
There are nearly 10,000 software developers at Xuri Technology. And these are just the R&D personnel. Including employees, a comprehensive textile factory and industrial chain like Guanghua Embroidery has nearly 200,000 employees.
Coupled with some other upstream and downstream industrial chains, the size of the world's largest textile factory is unimaginable.
"That's the core area for research and development. There are many research projects that are cooperating with the state. It's too troublesome to get in and requires various inspections. I won't go through it for the time being."
Ye Rongrong saw Yang Dongxu standing at the window and went to the back laboratory area to look at it, and introduced it from the side.
Yang Dongxu nodded, and the identity verification of the access control behind the two people passed, and the group walked towards the inside of the laboratory.
"This is the hard drive research area for our computer hardware. At present, our company's computer hardware storage space has reached 360G mass production and 580G research and development stage. At the same time, mobile phone memory cards and micro hard drives..."
Dongxu Technology's hard drives are number one in the world, whether they are computer hard drives, mobile phone memory cards, or micro mobile hard drives. They are all number one in the world.
Large storage space, fast and efficient writing and reading, and can be used multiple times after cleaning. These have always been the advantages of Dongxu Technology's hard drives.
For computer enthusiasts of all kinds, the hard drive of choice when assembling a computer is Dongxu Technology’s hard drive. Moreover, Dongxu Technology's hard drives are completely domestically produced and do not have an English name, pretending to be imported hard drives from abroad.
It is still the first choice for these people. In this environment where all kinds of top-notch technologies look to the West, this is a great achievement. Because if it is not a slap on the wrist, there is no way to change the Chinese people's preference for imported goods, and they feel that imported goods are better than domestically produced goods.
Coming out of the hard drive R&D area, Yang Dongxu looked at other semiconductor R&D areas and was basically very satisfied with the progress of various R&D projects.
Of course, behind this satisfaction is the huge capital investment of nearly one-tenth of Dongxu Technology's annual revenue.
At present, Dongxu Technology is not listed on the market, so there is no way to estimate its specific market value. But basically Dongxu Technology has already passed the hurdle of hundreds of billions of dollars.
Because the Honor Mobile R&D Room and Honor Mobile Company, which were just separated from Dongxu Technology, have seen their market value skyrocket in the past few months and have reached the threshold of a hundred billion US dollar company.
As her parent company, the larger Dongxu Technology is such a behemoth that outsiders can't even imagine.
So one-tenth of the annual revenue of such a giant is also a terrifying figure that is shocking and unspeakable. And every year for so many years, I have invested in research and development funds without hesitation.
This is one of the main reasons why Dongxu Technology can still rank among the world's top technology companies in an environment where Western countries are conducting various scientific and technological research on China.
"Are the R&D teams for automotive chips and central control systems ready?" Yang Dongxu asked as he came out of the semiconductor research room.
"Ready, the car chips are going to be dispatched directly from the computer chip R&D team. As for the car central control system, because we have not done any relevant scientific research here.
So everything can only start from scratch. However, the current automobile central control system is considered a new scientific research project, and foreign countries are just starting to take the lead. It will definitely be easier to catch up than other R&D projects.
Moreover, we also have a team that develops mobile phone smart systems, and the research and development of computer operating systems is also very strong, so progress will definitely be very fast. "Ye Rongrong said with great confidence.
"That's good. The chip research side will send people to the UK to practice for a period of time, and then directly invest in research and development. The car central control system and intelligent operating system will be developed as soon as possible.
This should be treated as a key project. It depends on whether BMW China can further expand in the European and American markets when the next batch of new models are released. Yang Dongxu said.
The gap in the hardware scene is not easy to make up, and the gap between China BMW's hardware and the world's top cars is not to the point where it will be beaten and crushed if it is one level behind others.
Therefore, scientific research in this area cannot be relaxed and we must continue to catch up. If we want to expand foreign markets and gain a foothold in the domestic market, we need to develop some overtaking technologies in corners.
For example, smart car intelligent control systems are a blank field in the world, and they must occupy a share of the pie.
When everyone uses intelligent control systems, let’s upgrade the voice control system. In short, Dongxu Technology has an absolute advantage in this aspect.
Not to mention other aspects of smart operating systems, the technology patents they hold are very dominant, and the number of scientific researchers also makes their opponents feel comfortable.
No matter how bad things are, foreign countries have taken the lead in this field again. No one can beat Dongxu Technology in terms of touch screen technology, right?
I just bought a touch screen for the car’s smart operating system hardware. With such a small screen, I can get involved in this project, right?
In short, since you have the upper hand, you must maximize your advantages, and not just maximize the mobile phone industry, but maximize expansion.
"I will arrange it." Ye Rongrong nodded, and then continued, "I have sorted out the patented technology for our partners in the UK.
And these technologies will also be authorized for use by domestic mobile phone companies after certain price discounts. However, the current mobile phone industry chain is not very complete, at least there is a big gap in the production of various mobile phone parts. "
What Ye Rongrong said is actually the main reason for the current shortage of Honor mobile phone shipments.
Dongxu Technology can provide mobile phone motherboards and top-notch mobile phone chip designs for Honor mobile phones. Even for intelligent operating systems, half of the R&D personnel are from Dongxu Technology.
But for other parts of mobile phones, the current technology of major domestic foundries cannot keep up, and they need to be upgraded to at least one level before the products they produce can meet the needs of Honor mobile phones.
So currently, in terms of smartphone parts, they are really out of stock, and it is not just another hungry marketing campaign for Honor phones.
Now Apple is chasing after us. It’s time to compete for land, and use some crazy hunger marketing.
However, the imperfect production of parts and components throughout the industry chain has directly dragged down the production of Honor mobile phones. Seeing that the market was in urgent need of goods but his own production was good, Yang Dongxu was more anxious than someone who couldn't buy a mobile phone.
At the same time, the current capital investment in smartphones in China is particularly speechless.
After getting the authorization for Honor mobile phones, everyone rushed into the field of smartphones, and each one of them threatened to build their own smartphone brand, so as to break out of Asia and go global.
And when the Android smart operating system has matured, these people will get the mobile phone smart operating system and start producing smart phones.
Not only will they not directly strengthen the strength of Chinese companies in the field of smartphones because they are all Chinese companies, but they will also in turn snatch mobile phone parts that are already in short supply for Honor phones. Who are you going to talk to about this?
With so much capital, wouldn’t it be great if you were to develop other components for smartphones, even if you were to cooperate with Dongxu Technology to produce smartphone screens?
