Business was not charity. How could there be so many ethics to talk about? If they could abide by the law, pay taxes according to the law, and operate with integrity, they would already be considered a conscientious enterprise.
Li He did not want to listen to their noise. It was not his original intention to do real estate. However, he could not control his subordinates who were willing to do it. He would not be happy or feel guilty if they made money.
The market did not believe in tears.
He called Xiang over and the two of them chatted for a while.
Among all of his industries, the smallest was the Polar Printing Group with an output value of less than 3 billion yuan. However, he admired Xiang's focused and pragmatic attitude. Although they had been struggling to survive and developed slowly, they were always moving forward and catching up with the pace of the international giants.
Xiang said, "The self-developed high-precision coating equipment has broken the international monopoly and filled the gap in the country. It has been included in the national science and technology support plan and is expected to be put into mass production next year. When that time comes, the domestic film products will truly be 100% domestic."
Li He said, "I really don't understand all this."
Xiang explained, "The coating machine is mainly used to produce optical films and materials for lithium batteries. The coating substrate is mainly paper and plastic films, various kinds of polymer films, aluminum foil, copper foil, steel plate, etc.
For example, the domestic LCD screen inner film, touch screen inner film, car windshield insulation film, solar photovoltaic back film and other high-precision film materials are mostly imported. There are many manufacturers in the country who produce these films, but their equipment is all imported from the United States, Italy and other developed countries. The cost is high and a set of equipment is about 40 to 50 million yuan. If they use our equipment, it will only cost less than 10 million yuan and the cost will come down in the future.
In short, aerospace, photovoltaic, electronics, communication engineering, automotive industry, health care and other fields can be used in the future. "
Li He asked, "The core components are all domestic?"
Xiang said with a red face, "The PLC control system, the coating roller motor, the oven, the servo valve and other core components are all imported …"
The more he spoke, the more his voice became softer and the excitement from before was gone.
Li He said, "It's not your fault. Look at them, all their funds are invested in real estate, the stock market, these kinds of fast money industries, who would invest money in manufacturing? Less and less people are willing to do industries with high investment, low output and long time consuming.
In the past, the best talents wanted to go abroad, but now, the best talents want to take the civil service exam, enter the bank, or enter the investment bank.
This is the overall environment. "
"Some of the core basic materials and high-end equipment are China's shortcomings, but I think it's only a matter of time before we catch up. Some of them still need to be accumulated.
I've been doing this for so many years, and I've long abandoned the illusion of international division of labor. Once something happens, I'll be choked. We still have to build a cooperative system with small and medium-sized enterprises in our country and enhance the competitiveness of the local business ecosystem. This is the most important social responsibility of large enterprises. "
Li He said, "Very well said. Dida Corporation still has a few factories and research institutes related to printing equipment. You can discuss the price with Miss Guo and see if you can buy them over. As for the capital, if you have no objections, I am willing to inject more capital."
Xiang Dong waved his hand and said, "No need. I have a lot of connections on my side. I have many subordinate factories of various sizes. Research costs money, but I have enough funds. The key is to be able to sit on the bench. If there are no results in one year, I will sit for two years. If two years are not enough, I will sit for four, five, or even ten years. When I retire, it will be the work of the next generation. "
Li He smiled. "You have a good attitude."
Meng Jianguo walked over and asked, "The two of you seem to be having a good chat."
Xiang Dong patted the chair beside him and said, "Sit here. You seem to be worried recently."
Meng Jianguo said, "As the saying goes, wealth doesn't last three generations. It's already not bad for me to last two generations. That brat's conditions are too good. It wasn't easy to coax him and get into university. In the end, he skipped classes every day and flunked six classes in a semester. The school is about to expel him from school. Tell me, where can I hide my old face?"
Li He remembered that his boss had already started working a long time ago, so it should be his second brother. He smiled and asked, "Can't bear to hit him?"
Meng Jianguo said, "My brat didn't even wait for me to hit him before he reported to the old man that I was going to hit him. The old man said over the phone that if he dared to hit me, he would fight me to the death.
When the old man was young, he beat us siblings. He was really ruthless. "
Li He and Meng Jianguo had known each other for more than 20 years and he knew his situation very well. He said, "Isn't your father still selling pigs to pay for your school fees? Compared to my family, it's not bad. Be content. "
Meng Jianguo said, "It's an unfair advantage."
There was something that he really couldn't say. Comparing his father to Li Zhaokun was simply an insult to his father.
Xiang Dong said, "My family is still alright. My father has been honest all his life and only knows how to work the fields. He doesn't even know how to get angry, much less hit someone."
Meng Jianguo said, "My old man is a very fierce person. He desperately wants us to go to school to study, but if we don't go, it won't do. If there's a slight mistake in our results, he'll beat us to death. Later on, when we went to high school, the children from the countryside had never seen the scene in the city. They were poor and smug every day. They didn't go to school and just wandered around the county town.
Everything was strange to them. Once, when the old man gave me money, it was very late. He told me that he was going to find a hotel to spend the night. The next day, when I was preparing to climb over the wall and leave the school, I realized that he had actually slept in a corner for the night.
After that, I finally looked like a person. "
Xiang Dong said, "It's not easy."
Meng Jianguo said, "This generation of children may be lazy and spoiled, but they are more confident than our generation. Sometimes, I even wonder where this confidence comes from."
Xiang Dong said, "Where else can weirdos like us go? They like to torture themselves. They can't wait to spend every penny. Most of them are very anxious. In essence, they are afraid of being poor.
The next generation is well-off and carefree. They won't make life difficult for themselves. "
Li He realized that he wasn't the only one who was worried about the growth of the next generation. It was just that his worry was different from others. Others were worried that their sons would become hedonistic, but he was worried that his son would become a carefree youth with no desires.
He could only try his best to comfort himself that everything would be fine after his son graduated from university.
Spring passed and autumn came. The aristolochia on the West Mountain bloomed once again.
It was graduation season again. He, who hadn't gone out for many years, swelled up. For the first time, he accepted the school's invitation to the graduation ceremony and was going to give a speech on stage.
The school's auditorium, which could only accommodate about 3,000 people, was now packed with more than 10,000 people.
