"Boss, this is Liu Yunan, the general manager of Ningnan Electronic Company!”
Yu Qinghua led a man with sparse hair, who was about forty years old, and introduced him.
Seeing that Su Ze was looking at him, Liu Yunan quickly called out respectfully,""Boss!"
"Yes ~"
Su Ze responded softly, his eyes sizing up Liu Yunan.
Ningnan Electronic was a company that produced radio sets. It had been established for more than ten years. Previously, it helped some radio companies in Japan and the United States to assemble them. Later, they felt that the profits of the assembly plant and the production were too low, and most of the profits were earned by the brand companies. The founders of the company, such as Zhang Wenjie and Liu Yunan, were unwilling and decided to make their own radio sets.
Therefore, he took advantage of the experience and connections he had accumulated from the OMs of foreign brands such as Japan and the United States to import the components and radio kits from Japan for assembly. With the brand "Ningnan", he sent them overseas to Australia, Europe, and other countries of the Commonwealth. With low prices, he quickly opened up a market. At his peak, he could produce more than 20,000 units per month, and the number of workers reached 200 to 300.
In the late 1960s, it could be said to be unparalleled.
It was far ahead of the other competitors in Xiangjiang City.
Even Hu Xiaoqing's Xiangbin Company couldn't compare.
However, the good times didn't last long. Japanese companies, represented by Sony, set up factories in Elland, Europe. At the same time, because the electronics industry in Xiangjiang affected the sales of Japanese electronics brands, Japan decided to ban the export of transistors to Xiangjiang.
Under the double blow, Ningnan Electronic began to decline.
Even though they had to replace it with imported transistors from the Eagle Kingdom and the United States, the increase in transportation costs had forced Ningnan Electronic, which was not profitable to begin with, to stop production and find other ways.
Therefore, a few years ago, they switched to a cassette-type tape recorder. Without their own technology, relying on imported components was ultimately not a way out, and Ningnan Electronic could not return to its former glory days.
After consecutive failures, the hearts of the people naturally scattered, leaving only Liu Yunan who still persisted.
Just a few days ago, Yu Qinghua came to visit him and bought Ningnan Electronic for one million Hong Kong dollars. That was how Su Ze met Liu Yunan.
"Have a seat. Don't be so restrained. From now on, you're one of us.”Su Ze stopped sizing her up and said gently.
Liu Yunan secretly heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this. He couldn't help but curse himself in his heart. He was actually afraid of this young man who looked to be in his early twenties. It was like a mouse meeting a cat. His aura was even more imposing than some of the people he had seen before.
"Tell me, how is the company now?”
Hearing Su Ze ask about the company's situation, Liu Yunan quickly became serious and said,""Fortunately, with the boss's investment of two million yuan, the people in the company have calmed down a lot. Now everyone is full of energy and is working hard to produce the radio.”
Su Ze nodded slightly. After acquiring Ningnan Electronic with one million Hong Kong dollars, in order to calm the people and prevent these skilled workers from being scattered, Su Ze immediately asked Yu Qinghua to invest two million in Ningnan Electronic and pay all the wages that were owed. He also gave everyone in the factory a 10% salary increase. It seemed that the effect was not bad to retain these skilled workers who knew electronic assembly and production.
"I called you here today mainly to tell you two things.”
Hearing this, Liu Yunan quickly sat up straight with a serious expression.
" The first thing I'm going to do is send you to Perkin Elmer Instrument Company in the United States to purchase two Micralign100 engraving machines," Su Ze said.”
At this time, the world's most advanced photolithographic machine was the Micralign100. As for the more advanced step photolithographic machine, it had yet to be born.
The reason why he bought the photolithographic machine was because he planned to enter the electronics industry completely. He also wanted the electronic products that he planned to produce.
The first thing he had to do was definitely a tape player.
At this time, the tape player had not yet been born, and it would take two years for the Japanese company to launch it.
Back then, with the launch of the first tape player, the Tps-L2, Sony started its era of meteoric growth. With the Tps-L2 tape player alone, 1.5 million units were sold in two years, and the selling price was 40,000 yen. According to the exchange rate at that time, it was about 150 US dollars, which was equivalent to 1200 Hong Kong dollars.
In other words, just selling the Tps-L2 tape player alone, in less than two years from 79 to 80, Sony had earned 1.8 billion Hong Kong dollars.
This was not even counting the other models of tape players that had been introduced by the company.
Just the player alone, in the past 30 years, had sold more than 380 million units, with a turnover of nearly 100 billion. It had to be said that it was terrifying.
How could Su Ze let Soni have such a big piece of cake?
Therefore, when Jinxiu was on the right track, he had already planned the tape player business.
The main reason was that the technical part was not difficult.
He was more mature.
He just needed to tinker with it a little and shrink it.
In addition to the tape player, there were two other directions in the near future, namely the fruit slot machine and the beeper.
Although slot machines were invented decades ago, they were not popular yet. There were no slot machines in the streets and alleys of Xiangjiang City.
The purpose of doing this was firstly to increase the income of the volunteer society, and secondly, through this business, they could also make a lot of money. It was the best of both worlds, so why not?
Pagers were also known as BIDs. Although they were invented 22 years ago, the functions of the current pagers were very monotonous. They could only display English and the other party's number, but could not display Chinese characters or messages.
The key was that pagers were relatively expensive now and were not popular yet. If Han Xian could be developed, it would definitely surpass the pagers of other brands. At least in Xiangjiang, Wanwan, and other places, it would be popular.
And the mainland market behind it.
Of course, the mainland market would be many years later, but it didn't stop Su Ze from planning ahead.
Moreover, the current Xiangjiang and Wanwan markets were enough for him to make a lot of profits.
Moreover, the business of pagers was not limited to selling them. They could also set up pagers and charge a monthly fee.
In the long run, tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars could be easily obtained in a year.
The further direction of research and development was naturally the mobile phone, VCD, LCD, and other electronic industries.
Take it slow, you have to eat wave after wave of dividends.
If the mobile phone was launched all of a sudden, then the dividends from the pagers would not be able to be eaten. Wouldn't that be a loss?
