Rebirth in 1989: Creating the Chinese Technology Empire

"You go out first..."

After thinking for a while, Robertson asked Sam and others to leave the room. In the end, only Xu Li and Robertson were left in the room.

"Xu, I want to hear your advice."

Robertson looked at Xu Huasheng seriously. He felt that the young man in front of him was not simple. He always gave people a feeling of being unpredictable.Robertson had seen this feeling before, but never in someone so young.

"Mr. Robertson, this matter is actually very simple. You only need to think about one question. If one day, the new company's products monopolize most of the U.S. home appliance market like the Japanese products, who can take the lead at that time? Can you handle this pressure?"

Xu Huasheng said seriously, which made Robertson think deeply.

"Mr. Robertson, even our new company's products will not be limited to home appliances in the future."

Xu Huasheng continued, which made Robertson raise his head and look at him.

"Mr. Robertson, we in China have the largest labor force in the world. Our country has a population of 12, and most of them are farmers. They have very little land and it is difficult to support themselves just by farming, so they will choose to work in the city. We Chinese people are also the most diligent and able to endure hardships, and their wages are very low. Mr. Robertson, do you know what the average monthly salary in China is now??"

Xu Huasheng asked, Robertson shook his head, he really didn't know about this matter.

“Less than $50…”

Xu Huasheng's words made Robertson's eyes widen.

"Is it really that low?"

Robertson couldn't help but asked in surprise, this is too low.You know, in the United States, the minimum wage is more than $1000.

But now, China's side doesn't even have fifty dollars. How many times is this gap? At least a gap of more than 20 times.

This means that for the cost of hiring one worker in the United States, more than 20 workers can be hired in China.What this means, Robertson knows best.

"Yes, it's that low, and our workers only need to pay a small amount of money, and they can work twelve or even fourteen hours a day. So Mr. Robertson, you should be very clear about what this means, right?"

Xu Huasheng sighed. He is also a worker. Now the wage gap between Chinese workers and American workers is too big. In 1991, the average monthly wage in China was only 195 yuan, while the average monthly wage in the United States during the same period was more than 1000 US dollars.

American workers can earn as much in one year's work as Chinese workers can earn in half a lifetime. This is the real and visible gap.

Robertson took a deep breath. As the vice president of Wal-Mart, he knew what this meant.If possible, Robertson really wants to replace all current Wal-Mart employees with Chinese people, so that Wal-Mart's profits will be greatly increased every month.

"So, under the premise of the same quality, the price of our Chinese products will be much lower than that of Japanese and European products. Now China is vigorously developing its manufacturing industry. In the future, this place will definitely become the world's factory. I don't think any multinational company will let this place go." Yes, because we in China not only have sufficient and cheap labor, we also have the most complete industrial chain and sufficient raw materials. For example, for our home appliances, we can find all the parts without even leaving Shenzhen. , and the price is very cheap..."

Xu Huasheng continued to increase the pressure, and Robertson's breathing became a little rough.

"Mr. Robertson, in the future our business will not be limited to home appliances. We can make all products. As long as they are products sold in your Walmart, you can find similar products in China that are of comparable quality but much cheaper." . And all these products can adopt our cooperation model. Mr. Robertson, you should now understand what the new company means, right?"

Xu Huasheng's words made Robertson swallow his saliva.Of course he understood what this meant, which meant the birth of a new supply system.

When that day comes, the new company will definitely be a super giant. It will use China's cheap labor force to produce the cheapest and best products, and then use this company to turn these products into so-called American products and take them to Wal-Mart supermarkets as American products are sold at high prices.

Robertson can imagine how high the profits are.

Take TVs as an example. If you can make $100 by selling a true American brand TV, then now Wal-Mart may be able to make $200 or more by selling products from a new company.

The most important thing is that in addition to the $200 profit, there is also a huge profit in the new company.This money originally belonged to major brands, but now it is taken by new companies.

What's this?This is self-produced and sold, no middlemen are used to make the difference.

With these cheap and high-quality products, Wal-Mart can not only earn more profits, but also attract more customers with cheaper prices. By then, Wal-Mart can quickly expand and occupy more markets.

After all, Wal-Mart also has competitors. Although Wal-Mart is powerful, it is not the only one.As a supermarket company, the price of the products it sells directly determines its market share. After all, in this world, everyone compares prices when shopping.

With the new company's products, Robertson is confident that he will directly wipe out his competitors.

Thinking of this, Robertson took a deep breath. He knew that this company was not qualified to monopolize it.Not only cannot it be monopolized, but more people must be brought in. Only in this way can we better deal with what may happen in the future.Only in this way can we make this company big enough to benefit ourselves and Wal-Mart more.

Although some shares need to be given up, the snowball of the new company can grow bigger and get more.

Seeing Robertson's excited look, Xu Huasheng also sighed inwardly. If there were other better ways, Xu Huasheng would not do it.

Xu Huasheng knows the importance of brand, but doing so now is equivalent to abandoning the brand and only becoming a foundry.

However, in this era, if Chinese products want to enter the world and enter Europe and the United States, this is the fastest way, otherwise they will have to wait until they join the WTO in the future.

However, this is not without its benefits, although it loses the brand and some profits.

But once this is successful, it will be equivalent to controlling the entire supply chain here in China.With the help of huge orders from Europe and the United States, we can quickly help China build a complete supply chain.

Once this supply chain is successfully built, Huaxia's products will become more and more competitive in the future as the times evolve.

Now, the items sold are home appliances, clothes, toys and so on.But in a few years, we will be able to use this model to sell higher-end products.

Mobile phones, computers, chips, cars, cutting-edge machinery, ships, large aircraft and more!

Once this business becomes dependent, it will not be easy to move the supply chain away.Those shareholders who make money lying down are not happy either. Why do they have to work so hard to make money when they can obviously make money lying down.And they will be even more reluctant if they may not be able to make money even after their hard work.

As long as this company gets big enough, whoever dares to touch this company will be looking for death. Without the help of Huasheng Group, those capitalists will kill him.

When China masters top scientific research capabilities in the future, it will be even more difficult to move the supply chain.

In the original time and space, American companies controlled R&D capabilities, brands, and priorities, and could use leading companies to force the supply chain to shift.

Apple, for example, does this.

When the United States launched a series of shameless sanctions, Apple cooperated with the United States and directly forced the transfer of China's supply chain.If you don’t move to other countries, you will be kicked out of your own supply chain system.

Under this operation, many domestic supply chain companies have suffered heavy losses.But even with such a shameless operation, the United States has not completed the transfer of its supply chain system.

But now, we are planning ahead to build complete R&D capabilities and a more stable supply chain. Once this is completed, it will not be easy for the United States to play its original tricks.

In the future, the only powerful industry in the United States may be the financial industry, relying on hegemony and the dollar system to harvest the world.

What Xu Huasheng wants to do is to accelerate the hollowing out of the U.S. manufacturing industry. Americans, you arrogant free people, are engaged in manufacturing. There are many types of coolies. They all go to finance, lawyers, doctors, and insurance. , let’s work in the celebrity industry.

Once this is completed, hey, it may be fine at ordinary times, but once a financial crisis occurs, it will be lively.Thinking of this, a glimmer of light flashed in Xu Huasheng's eyes.

However, this matter needs to be done slowly. Now, while China is still very low-key and has not yet been taken seriously by the United States, we can get this matter done quickly.

Use cheap products first, kill American Japanese products and European products.Anyway, Americans don’t have a good impression of these products now. Instead of letting the Japanese and Europeans make the money, how can the Americans make the money themselves? As for China, how much can a foundry make? Just a coolie.

First destroy Japan and South Korea, then attack Europe, and finally attack American goods.

In the room, Xu Huasheng and Robertson started talking.

For a new company, buy shares in the name of Wal-Mart Group and start the company first to see if this model works.If it is really good, in the future, when the company becomes bigger, more people will be brought in, and then the company will be listed on the stock market and enter the stock market to make money.

Backed by the sales channel of Wal-Mart and the cheap factory of Huaxia, this new company is basically guaranteed to make a profit without losing money.

As long as the financial report is done well every year, the stock price will definitely continue to soar.As long as the market value reaches a certain level, then this market value is the biggest protective umbrella. If the US government wants to touch this company, it will not even think about it without absolutely reasonable reasons. If you dare to touch this company, countless American investors will not be willing.

As long as this company is established, it will be equivalent to China having a channel to dump its domestic products into the European and American markets. A large number of Chinese products will enter the European and American markets. These products will not only bring a lot of profits to China, but also promote the development of China's manufacturing industry. , it can also create many, many jobs and increase people’s income.
