Siheyuan: Rebirth of a comfortable life starts with Shazhu

There is a problem here. The business rules that the foreigners have been advocating for decades, such as focusing on quality and operating with integrity.

With the development of the Internet in later generations, we naturally know that those people are talking nonsense.

For example, several key steel companies in Xiaori were later found to have falsified many of their key projects.

It's much the same with the foreigners.

Which mountain has tigers that don’t eat people?
As long as a private enterprise grows to a certain size, the so-called social responsibility and influence are just bullshit to fool others.

The only thing to pursue is profit.

Even if the bosses do not pursue it, the executives and shareholders will force them to do so.

As for employee loyalty to a company, that's nonsense.

Those employees who stay in one company for their entire lives are not loyal, but because they have formed an industry monopoly.

If anyone really does something like changing jobs to join a colleague, he will basically be ostracized by the entire industry.

Then, generation after generation, after decades of development and various brainwashing, the current situation of high loyalty in the workplace has been created.

Of course, it is also a fact that they developed earlier than us and their various security systems are more complete than ours.

……

"Nonsense!" Comrade Lao Ai's face turned red with anger when he heard the method proposed by He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu shrugged and said: "This is not what I thought, nor what I did.

At that time, we will purchase the spare parts from a trading company in Hong Kong.

The brand of televisions produced are also OEM and have other people's brands on them.

You don’t know, and neither do I, about the little tricks going on in Hong Kong.

If anyone protests, we will fulfill the contract and then find another company.

When we have our own technology, we can buy the brand of Hong Kong Island Company.

So the past affairs of that brand have nothing to do with us anymore.

The key lies with the Electrical Research Institute. If we do this, we can give them two to three years to complete the task.

It depends on whether they can live up to their expectations or not.

Also, Uncle Ai, you should also mention this to your higher-ups.

We should also investigate some of our technologies.

Since our products are more advanced than others, we should keep them confidential.

Some of these technologies were given to us by the Russians, and it has been nearly 20 years.

Now the outside has been updated.

As a result, those units are still keeping it secret. Is this a secret from the outside world, or is it just a secret from our own company?"

He Yuzhu said this with a smile, but this was the thing he wanted to say most to Comrade Lao Ai today.

Even He Yuzhu's words were very gentle. What he wanted to say directly was to ask those units to take out the confidential items and make a comprehensive comparison with the same type of products purchased from outside.

The quality of their products is not as good as others, and the cost is even higher than others, yet they still want to keep it a secret. What a secret!

Of course, this kind of thing must not be said.

Don’t even mention now, even if you say this after the reform and opening up, you will probably be torn down by some factories with special production tasks.

So He Yuzhu called him uncle instead of his title.

This means that He Yuzhu attributed his conversation with Comrade Lao Ai to a complaint between elders.

Comrade Lao Ai rolled his eyes at He Yuzhu. He was also an old hand, so he understood He Yuzhu's way of playing.

The previous incident was just like when the enemy invaded our home. They had knives and guns, but we had nothing but a few lumps of earth.

If we fight hard, we will definitely not be able to win.

Then we can only think of various ways to win.
Disintegrate the enemy and attack from within. Buy the enemy's weapons and use them to attack the enemy.

In fact, they are all played in a similar way.

As for the latter point that He Yuzhu mentioned, Lao Ai and the others actually also paid attention to it.

There are many things that He Yuzhu is not able to access because of his position. In fact, when Comrade Lao Ai and his colleagues decided to develop the TV industry chain, they had already conducted a survey of related industries.

The only things He Yuzhu could know were those units and peers that were publicly available on the market.

Some confidential information is not even included in the same investigation report.

However, the things that He Yuzhu complained about did happen.

The vast majority of key units do have confidentiality needs.

It’s not about how advanced it is, but the research direction. Even if the technical content is not higher than others, the research direction is different from the outside world. This is why it must be kept confidential.

But there are indeed some units that, because of the pedantic leadership, rest on their laurels, taking the second-rate technology that the Russians threw at us at the time of liberation, and instead of thinking about research and development, they treat it as a treasure.

For matters like this, Comrade Lao Ai and others also raised their opinions to the higher authorities.

"Alright, alright, the higher-ups have considered everything, so stop talking nonsense in the future. Do you really think you're the only smart person in the world?
If this gets out, I can’t protect you.” Comrade Lao Ai looked impatient, but he did not make any explicit criticism of He Yuzhu’s outrageous words.

Especially for the first thing, I just ignored it.

In other words, he personally supports Hong Kong Island's approach.

But as I said, some things can only be done and not said.

Let’s talk about Lou Xiao’e’s preparations.

Some of the tricks she played were so incomprehensible even to herself.

First, I privately bought a declining TV assembly company from a foreigner. The company had its own brand. Although the brand was not well-known, it had several decades of history and was one of those that had been eliminated.

These factories nowadays are not like the automobile industry. They cannot be run without tens of millions, hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars.

In the television industry, the difference between having a physical entity and not having a physical entity is huge.

For example, the company that Lou Xiao'e bought was actually just a brand and a set of obsolete technologies.

Other factory buildings and other items have been mortgaged to local banks.

Adding in all the handling fees, it’s only a few tens of thousands, according to our money.

Then they found an agent and set up a new company in Hong Kong Island. After a little packaging and promotion, they became partners with the foreigners.

Commonly known as Western advanced technology, it has aristocratic blood.

We don’t have our own production plant, and for some parts that we cannot produce, we have to order them from foreign suppliers.

Then Sijiucheng assembles and brands the products and pushes them into the Asian market.

Does this gameplay sound familiar to you?

Many companies in later generations did the same thing, but those companies were cheating their own people's money, while Lou Xiao'e's business was earning foreign exchange for us, not selling in the mainland.

This is the first step.

The most important thing about this step is to buy time for Sijiucheng Electric's research and development.
One is to reverse the technology based on mature products.

The next step is to investigate on our own to see if there is any technology that can replace it and can be made public.

He Yuzhu has nothing to do with these two matters.

The only thing he can do is come up with bad ideas.

In a slum area on the outskirts of Hong Kong Island, You Fengxia found this place with a note in her hand.

She looked tired and timid, and asked someone for the address of a man named Lan in her half-baked Cantonese...
