Chapter 205 Understanding the Huaxia Market

In fact, before coming to China, Duqi had asked Jinsi and Apple to prepare computer accessories and load them onto the freighter.

It seems that it is indeed a lot of money to send out a thousand computers, but if you can get the gratitude from major universities and establish channels for cooperation with each other, the transaction will be worth it.

What's more, those who can use computers now must be the first people in China to get in touch with computers. They have used Jinsi computers and Apple computers. After using Apple's systems, if they want to buy computers, Jinsi computers and Apple computers are definitely the first choice, and they will also be used to using Apple's graphics operating system.

For Duqi, if the Chinese can cultivate their brand awareness of Jinsi Computer and Apple Computer, these thousand computers will not be given out for free.

Another advantageous thing is that after Duqi sent out the computer, Deng also agreed to Duqi's plan to cooperate with universities. Of course, the cooperation targets were not limited to Tsinghua and Peking University, and there were other universities, Duqi also agreed.

There is no need to worry about fish-meshed beads and other things. Not to mention the value of college students nowadays, Du Qi can add an assessment by himself and directly brush up the inappropriate ones, so the other party can't say anything.

I have been to Yanjingzu for more than a week and most of them have been to some tourist attractions. I have always been accompanied by Wu Yufei. There is also a female translator. Although Du Qi speaks fluent Mandarin, the other party insists on arranging an interpreter.

That day, Duqi came back from Xiangshan Mountain to hike, and Tellison took the initiative to come and invited Duqi to go to the hotel cafe to have coffee.

In this era, foreigners cannot go out casually, otherwise they must be accompanied by someone. Influenced by the Western media to demonize China, even if Duqi and Tellison talked about it, he did not dare to go out casually after he arrived in China.

The melodious violin sounded in the cafe, and the young performer closed his eyes and was intoxicated with his superb skills. However, now, there are no other customers except Duqi and the others.

After the waiter served the coffee, Tellison gave the other party a tip for the exchange voucher exchanged with US dollars, and said, "The people here seem to like these very much."

Duqi knew that in this era, using these exchange coupons can buy a lot of things in the friendship store, and many have been relaxed in the past two years. Unlike the reform and opening up, only foreigners are allowed to enter and no Chinese is prohibited.

Nowadays, Chinese people are allowed to purchase goods with foreign exchange or exchange coupons. Even some returning people can purchase several large imports with tickets, which cannot be purchased in ordinary stores.

After explaining these to Tellison, he said, "The boss really has a deep understanding of China. Are you investigating these things these days?"

Du Qi casually said, "It's just to experience the current social atmosphere. Business inspections not only look at data, but also people's mental state and social atmosphere, etc. What are your gains when you follow those delegations these days?"

Tellison began to talk to Duqi about this trip to China, "...I am frank. We came here to make money. Although I can't decide anything, the decision is still on you, but after discussing with other members of the delegation, I believe that the prospect tends to be pessimistic."

"Oh?" Duqi took a sip of coffee with a light sip. "But as far as I know, now they have basically reached an investment intention and are ready to invest? And they will build a factory, and will arrange for people to come to China to manage?"

Duqi knows the investment group they are in good condition. This investment group is composed of more than a dozen small and medium-sized enterprises. The finished products they produce are small machinery.

And these small and medium-sized enterprises are each responsible for one part, some are responsible for motors, some are responsible for assembly and other things, forming a complete industrial cluster, and are all affiliated enterprises. In other words, if they invest, these enterprises will invest all of them; if they do not invest, they will not even come.

This is the honeymoon period of Sino-US relations. Both countries are encouraging exchanges in various fields, including economic cooperation, and even introduced many encouraging policies.

In the international industry, Japan has emerged and, together with Europe represented by Germany, it has been eroding the US's industrial share by using low costs and low prices. Therefore, many small and medium-sized enterprises in the United States have been very sad.

In this way, there are both internal and external aspects

stimulating factor. Therefore, this American investment group actually had a great investment tendency before coming. However, the labor cost of China at this time can be called pitiful, at least it can greatly reduce the cost?

Duqi is a reborn person and understands how amazing the future development of China is. But why? After the inspection, Tellison and the inspection team made such a completely different misjudgment?

Tellison then replied in detail, "No need to say more, boss, you should understand that cost, market, are all the key.

I have asked about the industrial situation here, and even personally inspected it. There are too many things missing. Even if there are very few, the quality does not meet the requirements, and the gap is quite far.

Many companies that come here make finished machinery products, which require as few as a few thousand or as many as tens of thousands of spare parts. If these need to be imported, it will offset most of the reduced labor costs.”

Duqi nodded and made a gesture to Tellison continue "there is still a market. When our products are shipped back to the United States, we will not be able to sell the right price without mentioning the shipping fee, but only the origin.

Do you understand? Printing adecha, it is difficult to sell even the normal price. You must lower the price, very low. Not to mention the industrial products of the inspection team, North American consumers would rather use those inferior Japanese products.

If our products of Haiqubao Company are labeled like this, it will be really difficult for users to accept. We have also conducted market research in the United States, which will cause huge losses to the company!"

Without mentioning those subjective and emotional aspects, Duqi has roughly understood what Tellison meant. It’s just that China’s industry owes too much debt and has too many backward areas. Without the support of upstream and downstream industries, many raw materials and parts can only rely on imports and exports, which will increase a lot of costs. Therefore, Tellison judged that at the current stage, from the perspective of cost, it cannot be reduced much.

It should be admitted that these are all very practical issues. According to what Duqi knows, in the 1970s, China launched a plan for a "Yun Ten" aircraft.

In order to create its own large passenger aircraft, Huaxia has invested a lot of resources and has even made finished products. It has also tested the flights through the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau many times, which can be said to be very successful.

But in the end, the project was stopped. The reason was very simple. These parts were similar to laboratories. China's upstream and downstream industries could not be standardized and industrialized to mass-manufacture the parts needed for aircraft. Therefore, this project had no practical value to China and was finally stopped.

The only shame is that the final data of the project was also damaged in large quantities and was not preserved. As a result, thirty years later, China had enough industrial foundation and had to re-study when planning to do the project.

Thinking of this, a thought suddenly flashed through Duqi's mind, but these are not urgent. Now we still need to talk to Tellison about the US delegation's understanding of the Chinese market.
