Wan Feng was very satisfied with the effect of his words. Judging from the facial expressions of these experts, they had already understood the relationship between semiconductors and the rise and fall of a country.
"To sum up! Do you think those foreigners will help us revitalize China's semiconductor industry? Not at all! All they want are workers, and they'd be grateful if they didn't suppress you. Therefore, we can't rely on foreigners to revitalize this industry. In the current situation where the country does not support the semiconductor industry, the only way to keep the flame of China's semiconductor industry alive is to rely on all of you here and the millions of people who have contributed to the national cause. We can't wait or rely on others, we can only start with ourselves and do it bit by bit."
"Manager Wan! You have also pointed out the general trend. We are just ordinary people. We have no money and no projects, so we can't do anything!" The expert named Qiu Zhen said helplessly.
Everything in the world has a cause and effect. Wan Feng has now explained the cause, and now it’s time to explain the effect.
"Everyone, don't lose heart. Although the government has stopped providing financial support, and although the national semiconductor industry is in a bleak state, we still have Huaguang Company! Although our company is small, we are willing to make a contribution to China's semiconductor industry in this difficult time. However, our technical strength is not high, and our strength is not strong. Therefore, I invite you to work at our company and contribute to China's semiconductor industry."
The people at the table did not express their opinions, but whispered to each other.
"Then again, people eat whole grains. It's nonsense to pursue ideals without filling your stomach. What's the point of talking about ideals and ambitions if people are starving to death? Although our company is limited in size, we can still provide logistical support for you. Tan Sheng probably told you about salaries before. No matter how much you earn in your previous company, we will give you five times your original salary when you come to Huaguang. There are benefits such as medical reimbursement, and after a certain number of years of work, there will be housing allocation and other benefits. I can proudly say that our company's scientific research and welfare levels are top-notch in the country. We also have scientific research awards. Tan Sheng! Have you told your predecessors about our company's scientific research before?"
Tan Sheng shook his head: "I haven't really said that."
So Wan Feng repeated the scientific research reward system that he had told the people from Factory 14 two days ago.
This time these scholars were really moved and completely lost their composure. Isn't this too big a deal?
Rewards of hundreds of thousands or even millions, is this true?
"You seniors must be thinking I'm bragging, but facts speak louder than words. I now solemnly invite you all to visit my company. There you'll see how much of what I say is true and how little is false. We'll cover your round-trip airfare, meals, and lodging. Are you interested?"
"Manager Wan! Where is the headquarters of Huaguang Company?"
Wan Feng had prepared an octavo-sized map in advance. He took it out and pointed to a red circle. "Our company's headquarters is on the coast. It's right here, in a small county town on the southern coast of Beiliao. It's nearly four thousand miles from Shanghai, and three thousand miles as the crow flies."
"Wow! It's so far!" someone exclaimed.
"It sounds like it's far, but it's only an hour's flight. It's late May now, and while it's not the best time to travel, the weather is still pleasant. If everyone agrees, I'll arrange for someone to book the tickets right away."
Only an idiot would refuse to travel without spending any money and get free food and accommodation.
Everyone at the table responded, since they had nothing to lose anyway.
Wan Feng immediately instructed Tan Sheng to book a flight to Bohai for the day after tomorrow.
Things in Shanghai will probably be over today and tomorrow, so there shouldn't be any problem going back the day after tomorrow.
In order to deepen these people's impression of Huaguang Enterprise, Wan Feng simply took them to the construction site in Waigaoqiao after dinner.
"See this circular building and the rectangular structure next to it? This is the base for Huaguang's investment in Shanghai."
Everyone was a little stunned. How big was this area? It seemed that only a few companies in Shanghai had such a large area.
Wan Feng pointed to the circular building and introduced, "This will be Huaguang's largest research center in Shanghai, covering 45,000 square meters and with a construction area of 52,000 square meters. The adjacent rectangular building is a semiconductor factory, covering over 60,000 square meters and with a construction area of over 50,000 square meters. The company invested 200 million yuan in these two buildings, including the equipment."
The huge building and the amount of investment shocked the experts.
How many scientific and technological personnel can be accommodated in such a large scientific research center?
A private enterprise invested 200 million!
I wonder what these people would think if they knew that the bank did not spend a penny on the investment in these two buildings.
Looking at the two buildings, Wan Feng pointed southeast again. "That's called the lakeside. Those are the future leisure and living areas for the company. After these two buildings are completed, a residential area of over 100 acres will be built facing the lake. Employees of the company can live here if they wish. Those who have made outstanding contributions will receive company housing for free. For ordinary employees, the company will only charge the cost of moving in. We guarantee we won't charge a penny more."
As I said before, housing will always be a heavy topic in the city, whether now or in the future. As long as we can help employees solve their housing problems, their love for the company will come from the bottom of their hearts.
Therefore, no matter where Wanfeng invests now, residential buildings are given the same importance as the company's factories and offices.
Seeing that Huaguang has even planned a residential area, these people really believe that Huaguang Company is not just talking big, but really wants to do something.
Anyway, this place was not far from the lake, so Wan Feng simply brought them to the lakeside and asked them about the specific location of the residential area, what style of buildings to build, how many floors to have, etc.
These people don't understand this at all, and the suggestions they make are all at the level of blind advisers and poor administrators. Some say to build it on the slope by the lake, while others say to build it on flat ground; some say to build it six stories high, while others say to build it eight stories high.
At that time, residential buildings in Shanghai were generally of this height, and their suggestions were quite standard.
Of course, we can't build it this high. It has to be at least thirteen or fourteen stories high. The land is very expensive, so how can we not make good use of it?
However, if the building is built at this height, an elevator must be installed.
These suggestions will basically not be adopted. The reason why Wan Feng pretends to listen carefully is actually to cultivate their sense of ownership from now on.
This makes them subconsciously think of themselves as Huaguang's people and are making suggestions for Huaguang.
Just as Wan Feng was pretending to listen seriously, the phone rang.
