Life has been very easy for Lian Xiang in the past few decades.

There are two reasons.

The first is that Xia State has just entered the rapid development stage of reform and opening up, and both domestic personnel and enterprises know very little about overseas things.

Lianxiang suffered from this information gap. It imported computer products such as chip motherboards from abroad, assembled them in its own factory and sold them domestically. For a while, it had no competitors.

This information gap allowed Lianxiang to make huge profits for a long time. In some cases, the profit of a single PC was even as high as more than 50%.

The second reason is that Lianxiang, which prides itself on being a domestic high-tech industry, has received a large amount of subsidies from the state.

Lianxiang is a computer manufacturer. As soon as the word "computer" is said, in the Xia Dynasty in the 1990s, everyone thought it was a high-tech gadget that many companies could not produce, and only Lianxiang could. do it. .

Therefore, whether it is the headquarters where Lianxiang is located, the production location where the factory is located, or the relevant national authorities and industries, they all support Lianxiang unconditionally.

Not only will it provide financial subsidies and interest-free loans, but it will also provide you with preferential policies, such as exempting taxes, helping Lianxiang build an assembly factory, helping Lianxiang expand the market, and even encourage domestic government agencies, enterprises and institutions to purchase Lianxiang computers, etc. .

It can be said that the reason why Lianxiang was able to develop and grow rapidly in the first place is absolutely inseparable from this kind of support from the state.

In particular, major state-owned institutions and state-owned enterprises purchased Lianxiang PCs on a large scale as office computers, which brought huge profits to Lianxiang.

As we all know, the purchase price of government agencies, enterprises and institutions is basically 1.5 times or even more than twice the market price. This method is actually to directly support you in cash.

When Lianxiang is in difficulty, or when annual computer sales are poor, the profits contributed by centralized purchasing can account for more than 70% of Lianxiang's profits.

After all, in the 1990s, there were relatively few computer users in China, and most of the users were units and collective users.

Unexpectedly, all the preferential measures were canceled overnight and transferred to Changtian Technology. This kind of blow was not a big blow to Lianxiang.

Yang Qing can naturally think that it may not be obvious this year, but Lianxiang's revenue and profits will definitely decline sharply next year.

Suddenly, Yang Qing felt a little tight and out of breath. He hurried to the chairman's office to discuss countermeasures together.

Uncle Liu also frowned. This is the biggest crisis Lianxiang has faced since its establishment.

After three hours of emergency consultation, Lianxiang decided to contact the relevant departments first, hoping to continue to receive corresponding subsidies.

The first person to contact was the Xia Academy of Sciences.

After all, the birth of Lianxiang is closely related to Xia Guoscience Academy, and even now Xia Guoscience Academy still has shares in Lianxiang.

After all, Xia Guo Academy of Sciences can be regarded as his family, so it is not impossible to abduct him.

Uncle Liu personally took action and found Li Huaibin from the Xia Academy of Sciences.

Li Huaibin is currently the director of the Institute of Computer Science, Xia Academy of Sciences.

He is a few years younger than Uncle Liu. More than 10 years ago, Uncle Liu and Li Huaibin were colleagues, working in the same research institute and office.

So the two of them should be considered old friends and colleagues.

After Lianxiang was established, Uncle Liu also hired Li Huaibin to work in Lianxiang with a high salary.

But this was rejected by Li Huaibin.

Uncle Liu had always thought that Li Huaibin could not let go of the golden job in his hands and was timid and lacked courage.

But Uncle Liu didn't know that the fundamental reason why Li Huaibin rejected Lian Xiang's high-paying invitation was due to a disagreement in philosophy.

Because at the beginning, Li Huaibin, like Uncle Ni, hoped that Lianxiang would take the path of independent research and development of technology.

But this plan was rejected by Uncle Liu.

When Uncle Ni quit Lianxiang, Li Huaibin was completely disappointed with Lianxiang, so he refused Uncle Liu's invitation.

Xia Institute of Computer Science, Academy of Sciences.

Uncle Liu came to the door in person this time.

He felt a little emotional, looking at every plant and tree in the institute, especially Li Huaibin's office.

The memories come step by step, like scenes from a movie, making people feel a little sad and a little hesitant.

After Lianxiang was established and became bigger.

Uncle Liu rarely returns to Xia Guo Academy of Sciences.

Although his establishment is still here, he is getting Lianxiang's high salary, and he doesn't think highly of the hard-working, low-paid or even staid colleagues at the institute.

Several times when Uncle Liu was gathering with friends, he still laughed at Li Huaibin because he did not listen to his own advice and did not work in Lianxiang.

"When he works in Lianxiang, I will give him an annual salary that is more than 10 times what he earns now at the research institute!"

These were Uncle Liu's exact words when he was having a gathering with his friends.

Li Huaibin still took out the same cup that Uncle Liu had used before and poured tea for Uncle Liu.

Li Huaibin smiled and said to Uncle Liu: "When will you, old man, have time to come to my place for tea?"

Uncle Liu looked at the enamel cup printed with blue and white flowers, and felt even more in his heart.

He took a sip of tea and then said, "I have something to trouble you."

Li Huaibin was a little surprised and said: "I remember that there is no place for a great god like you in this small temple. If you need my help with anything, you can just call me. Why do you come here in person?"

Uncle Liu laughed awkwardly and said, "I don't know if you have heard that the relevant state departments have canceled the preferential measures for Lianxiang a few days ago. The annual subsidy funds and interest-free loans have been cancelled, and the government agencies have also been discouraged. Enterprises and institutions purchase Lianxiang computers.”

"I want to discuss this matter with you and see if we can let the leaders of the Xia Guo Academy of Sciences communicate with us. After all, you have more say in this matter than I do."

Uncle Liu said: "Lianxiang contributes a lot of tax revenue every year, and there are also many technicians and workers related to the industrial chain. We are still one of the few well-known Xia Guo high-tech brands in the world, how can we just stop it?"

Uncle Liu's words were full of grievances.

It seems that Lian Xiang was a soldier fighting on the frontier, but Lian Xiang was cut off from food and supplies in the center of the imperial court. How could this be possible?

After hearing what Uncle Liu said, Li Huaibin suddenly felt like laughing.

He also said very rudely: "Isn't this a tax exemption for you? How much tax do you get every year? Can the tax be worth the subsidies given to you by the state?"

Many things are seen through but not revealed.

Little did he know that Li Huaibin didn't give Uncle Liu any face.

This made Uncle Liu very embarrassed.

Uncle Liu told Li Huaibin: "The cancellation of these policies will have a huge impact on Lianxiang. I can't even guarantee this year's profits."

Uncle Liu's words actually hinted to Li Huaibin that if Lianxiang could not guarantee profits this year, then the shares owned by Xiaguo Academy of Sciences would certainly not be able to get a share of the business.

The Xiaguo Academy of Sciences invests in many external scientific research industries, and it also needs to recover a part of its dividends and profits every year to support its own scientific research.

When the Xia Academy of Sciences was first established in Lianxiang, it devoted a lot of energy and time.

To say that Lian Xiang collapsed now would be very detrimental to Xia Guo Science.

Uncle Liu thought that Li Huaibin would be touched after hearing his words and promised to help him.

Who knows, Li Huaibin laughed and said: "I think there is no problem with this national policy."

"Currently, our country is still in the primary stage of socialist development. We still have a long way to go before becoming moderately prosperous. Our per capita income is not high, and the economy is not very developed."

"The money that the state uses to subsidize the development of enterprises is real money, and it is the hard-earned money contributed by taxpayers."

"This money must be used with extra care and treasure, and it must be used wisely. Lianxiang is now a big company, and its products have been sold abroad, so what subsidies are needed."

Li Huaibin patted Uncle Liu on the shoulder and said: "You are a big company. You have to be generous. Don't worry about this matter. A subsidy of several hundred million is nothing compared to Lianxiang's annual revenue of tens of billions." ?”

Uncle Liu was very embarrassed when he heard this.

He said to Li Huaibin angrily: "We are all one family, how can we speak two different languages?"

"After all, Lianxiang still solves a lot of scientific research jobs for Xiaguo Academy of Sciences every year."

"If the money is taken out, it belongs to others, and if it is taken back, it belongs to us. Why bother with money?"

Li Huaibin didn't want to hear this.

Money, money, money again.

When there was a line dispute between Uncle Ni and Uncle Liu.

Uncle Ni is determined to follow the path of scientific research and independent development.

Uncle Liu insisted on taking the trade route, that is, the route of making money.

To put it bluntly, it's all about money.

It is true that Li Huaibin also understood the background of that time.

At that time, Lianxiang was asked to spend huge sums of money to engage in scientific research, to develop chips or motherboards. He certainly did not have that much money or that much energy, and the possibility of failure was too high.

Therefore, given the background of that era, it was right for Lianxiang to choose the route of pursuing trade and engineering.

But in the past few years, Lianxiang has become the number one PC company in Asia and the second in the world. Its annual revenue is even higher, and after being listed in Xiangjiang City, it also raised a large amount of funds.

Coupled with the centralized procurement of government agencies, enterprises and institutions, Lianxiang made even higher profits.

It stands to reason that under this situation, Lianxiang should adjust its original strategy and find a way to carry out scientific research, right?

And Lianxiang’s senior management should also clearly realize that Lianxiang is essentially an assembly company, right?

All key components are dependent on the United States.

This is actually quite dangerous.

It is easy for you to make money now, but as long as the other party blackmails you technically.

You have no strength to fight back at all, not even the strength to struggle.

After all, scientific research companies are hard to find, but assembly companies are easy to find.

Today we can let you, Lianxiang, represent Western hardware equipment, and tomorrow we can let you, Lianxiang, represent other Xia Guo assembly companies.

But it is a pity that even though Lianxiang has achieved great success, they still have not put scientific research on their agenda.

A large amount of money earned is used to support the company's executives and make other investments that have nothing to do with scientific research.

As people get richer, scientific research loses weight.

This behavior made Li Huaibin angry, angry and helpless.

Li Huaibin was a little angry and said sarcastically: "It's useless for you to tell me this now. Otherwise, Lianxiang will also develop a chip and report it to the relevant national departments. Who knows what subsidies and preferential policies will be used?" came back."

When Uncle Liu heard this, his chest hurt with anger.

"What do you mean by that? How can you turn your elbows outward?"

Li Huaibin directly picked up the tea cup in front of Uncle Liu, poured out the tea and said: "I usually just make ordinary green tea, which is not high quality and relatively cheap. I don't think you drink it very much. Otherwise, you should go back and make your own tea." Better."

As a scientific researcher, you have the toughness to be a scientific researcher. You will and will stick to your own bottom line.

This is equivalent to issuing an eviction order.

Uncle Liu was disappointed and left Li Huaibin's office angrily.

Li Huaibin laughed.

Has Changtian Technology benefited Xia Guoji Academy of Sciences?

No.

Xia Academy of Sciences has neither invested in Changtian Technology nor received any benefits from the Pangu series of chips sold by Changtian Technology.

But the Xia Academy of Sciences is willing to cooperate with Changtian Technology.

Because of cooperation with Changtian Technology, we can see hope for the future.

We can see the future of Xia Guo breaking the U.S. semiconductor monopoly and achieving independent technological self-reliance.

In cooperation with Lianxiang, Xia Guo Academy of Sciences could not see the future.

Li Huaibin took a sip of tea and went to the laboratory again.

The research currently being conducted by the Computer Laboratory of the Xia National Academy of Sciences is closely related to Changtian Technology chips and systems.

Li Huaibin said self-deprecatingly that the headquarters of Xiaguo Academy of Sciences could hold back Changtian Technology.



Jiangzhou Changtian Technology Headquarters.

Chen Xiao also learned about the strong support plan of the national captain Tianke.

In addition to receiving hundreds of millions of yuan in subsidies every year, they can also get interest-free loans from China Development Bank.

This has indeed greatly eased the financial pressure of Changtian Technology.

How should this money be used?

The money will be useful immediately.

Changtian Technology lent this part of the money to Yanjiang Semiconductor Company in the name of interest-free loans.

The first use of this money is to allow Yanjiang Semiconductor Company to continue to purchase equipment and at the same time vigorously recruit domestic and foreign technical talents.

Of course, if you are a foreign talent, you must go through strict background and ethics checks.

The second use is for Yanjiang Semiconductor Company to purchase Japanese chip raw materials in large quantities.

There is also good news from Zhang Jing.

He has reached cooperation with many Toyo semiconductor raw material companies.

The source of purchasing goods is guaranteed.

Zhang Jing also encountered a problem.

A semiconductor raw material company called Qingshan Tiaodian has a large inventory of raw materials and a complete production line. However, due to investment problems, it is facing a shortage of funds.

Zhang Jing visited this semiconductor raw material company on the spot.

I feel that this company has good quality and development prospects.

And after it becomes stronger, it can also supplement the production capacity of Yanjiang Semiconductor Company.

What Zhang Jing means is that he hopes Yan Semiconductor Company can directly acquire Tsingshan Tiaodian Semiconductor.

But this involves hundreds of millions of yuan, and Chen Xiaona must pay attention to it.

Chen Xiao absolutely believed in Zhang Jing's vision after receiving Zhang Jing's report.

Chen Xiao immediately made the decision, "Immediately carry out the acquisition according to the requirements and procedures! With such a good opportunity, we can be considered as entering the Toyo semiconductor industry!"
