. . Mobile reading.. Hearing what his second brother Yang Nan said, Yang Jing was a little amused.
Whether it is Apple or other well-known foreign electronic brands, many of them are now looking for cooperative OEM factories or establishing assembly plants in China, India, and Southeast Asia, just like the famous Foxconn.
These big foreign brands take advantage of the cheap human resources in China, India and Southeast Asia to find cooperative OEM factories or establish assembly plants here, which can significantly reduce costs.
But no matter which brand, establishing an assembly plant in China or looking for a cooperative OEM factory is a strategic arrangement within the company. This is not something that can be decided by any senior executive on a whim. It must be determined after many discussions by the board of directors.
Yang Jing thought to himself that unless he acquired Apple or other electronic brands in full, it would be almost impossible for him to push the company's board of directors to change its strategic arrangements by his own strength.
"Brother, you think too highly of me. If you had asked for other conditions, I might have been able to find them for you. We could have done it with some effort, but this kind of OEM or assembly factory is something I, as a brother, cannot do. Besides, even if I could bring you an electronic brand to cooperate with, what would you have to cooperate with them? What would you have to do for them? Not to mention factories, workers alone, I'm afraid it's not easy to find them right now, right?"
Yang Tao, who was driving, said calmly, "Second brother, you think things are too simple. This is not ten years ago. If it was ten years ago or seven or eight years ago, it would not be a big problem for you to think or even do this. But now you have to face a very practical problem. This problem is not about funds or technology, but workers."
Yang Tao's words revealed the current situation facing China, which is the worker issue.
As China's economy becomes more and more developed, the cheap human resources have become a bottleneck for China's economic development. Workers who come to the Pearl River Delta, Yangtze River Delta, and Bohai Bay Economic Zone have higher and higher requirements for salary. If the salary you give me is not what I want, I will turn around and leave, and you really have no way to deal with it.
The increase in labor costs has led to the dilution of manufacturers' profits. Conversely, less profits will have a series of impacts on manufacturers, eventually forcing them to raise prices, which will lead to the loss of orders, making them earn less, and then they will lay off employees or reduce wages, leading to another loss of workers.
No one will do business that doesn't make money. This has been an iron rule since ancient times. However, facing such an almost unsolvable vicious cycle, neither manufacturers nor workers have a way to solve it. This is a new difficulty that China is currently facing.
Yang Nan let out a long breath and leaned back in his chair. "Big brother, third brother, I know what you are talking about. I have been in Xiamen for a long time. Don't I know the current employment problem? I was just talking. Besides, I don't have the conditions to cooperate with electronic brands like Apple or Dell. I am aware of this."
Yang Jing shook his head slightly, feeling somewhat helpless.
Compared to the cotton textile industry, Yang Jing knew even less about the electronics industry. Yang's mother, two aunts, and grandmother were all employees of the National Cotton Mill, as were his uncle and grandfather. Even though Yang Jing had not studied this field professionally, he had learned a lot about the cotton textile industry from what he had seen and heard since he was a child.
But he really doesn't know much about the semiconductor electronics industry. If you ask him to install a system on a computer, he has no problem doing that. If you ask him to place an order from big brand manufacturers such as Apple, Lucent, or Atapapt, he has no problem doing that. But when it comes to the industrial chain of semiconductor electronics products, Yang Jing is at a loss.
Yang Nan is different from Yang Jing. He majored in this field in college and has been engaged in this field since graduation. Although he has not made it big, he knows everything about this field. Therefore, if Yang Nan is asked to change his industry rashly, whether he is willing or not is one thing. Even if he is willing, it will take him a long time to adapt.
"Boss, you are most familiar with this place. Why don't you find a place for the three of us to have a drink together?" Yang Nan seemed to not want to talk about this anymore and took the initiative to suggest finding a bar to drink.
As the eldest brother, Yang Tao would come to Zibo several times a year, so he was more familiar with this place than Yang Jing and Yang Nan. Hearing this, he turned the steering wheel and drove towards another street.
There were very few bars open in the afternoon, especially near the Chinese New Year. However, Yang Tao drove around and found a bar that was open on a pedestrian street.
After parking the car, the three brothers walked in. There was no one in the bar. Elegant light music was floating in the empty hall. Two bartenders were wiping wine glasses behind the counter.
After Yang Jing and his two brothers went in, they found a seat by the window and sat down. Clark and John also followed them in, but they just found a corner and sat down.
Yang Nan was very envious of the two foreigners who had been following him, especially the tall and strong Clark.
"I say, Third Brother, you've even become a bodyguard, how much did you earn last year? If possible, help me out. If not, I'll even change my career."
It can be seen that this G-Class and the two bodyguards following behind really stimulated Yang Nan.
The bartender came over with the drink menu, and Yang Nan asked, "What kind of drinks would you like? I'll just have a Martini."
