Zhu Lidong dared to guarantee it, so he definitely could do it. He said he would connect with ten manufacturers, but he didn't specify the scale. With Hurricane's strength, connecting with ten small manufacturers would be a piece of cake, wouldn't it?
Lu Feng didn't say much about his rhetoric, but demanded that Hurricane Semiconductor's market share in the wholesale market increase by at least five percentage points by the end of the year.
For a time, the Chinese market seemed to have become the key to competition between Japan, the United States, and Europe. Within two days, Lu Feng saw some foreign financial newspapers predicting the domestic consumer electronics market.
However, their predictions were rather conservative; they anticipated that in ten years, China would become a huge market with annual sales exceeding 100 million units.
Lu Feng had a pretty clear idea of the mobile phone market sales ten years later; that year, the national mobile phone sales exceeded 600 million units!
A few days later, Lu Feng and his entourage set off to return to Shenzhen. As soon as they landed, they were taken to the Investment Promotion Office. Director Li treated Lu Feng to a good meal and drinks. Since he had already met with Mayor Zhang once, the main purpose now was to talk with Director Li. If the discussion went well, the two sides would meet again.
After several days of deliberation, the plan was finally finalized. 470 acres of land were allocated to build the Hurricane Industrial Park. The city investment company will act as an intermediary and provide upfront funding, mainly for construction costs. Hurricane Capital will only provide guidance on factory design and building patterns, but will have the right to supervise the construction.
Lu Feng also knew that the so-called right to supervise was nothing but a load of rubbish; when he actually went to the construction site, those people wouldn't even give him a second glance.
Hurricane Capital will contribute 30% of the cost of the first phase of the project, and no further funds are required. After the completion of the first phase, Lu Feng is required to recruit workers and create 5,000 direct jobs within six months.
The 150 acres of land in the Hurricane Industrial Park will be used for supporting enterprises related to Giti Communications. These supporting enterprises will prioritize local companies, and Giti will cultivate five medium-sized supporting enterprises within three years and transfer a number of low- and mid-range technologies.
All local taxes will be exempted for five years. During this five-year period, Giti Communications, as a high-tech enterprise, will receive national subsidies, and local governments will also provide the highest level of subsidies.
Five years from now, Giti Communications will contribute no less than 200 million RMB in local tax revenue annually. The contract period is five years. If the cooperation obligations of both parties are fulfilled after ten years, the 300 mu of land and buildings in the industrial park will be transferred to Giti Communications free of charge and become Giti Communications' assets.
In addition to the industrial park, the two parties also agreed on a talent transfer plan and signed a cooperation agreement with Shenzhen University, which includes a high degree of cooperation plan between Hurricane Capital's R&D center and Shenzhen.
Five days after the contract was signed, Lu Feng was awarded an honorary doctorate by Shenzhen University, the title of pioneer in technological innovation by the local government, and Hurricane Capital was also awarded the honor of being an outstanding technology company.
Over the next decade, Giti Communications is destined to be tied to Shenzhen. Lu Feng is quite satisfied with this outcome. Due to the tight schedule, the planning drawings were completed a week after the two parties signed the contract, and construction began immediately. The planned industrial park is located in Shenzhen High-tech Industrial Zone!
Time flies, and it's already the end of February. Lu Feng has been staying in a hotel all this time. Du Guoying has also privately and subtly asked him if he had quarreled with his wife. Who stays in a hotel every day right at their doorstep?
"What do you know? This is called controlling the time you spend together. Absence makes the heart grow fonder. If you're together every day, won't that just lead to fighting?" Lu Feng looked at him irritably and said, "I'm going back today."
Du Guoying didn't dare to speak, but in his heart he felt that Lu Feng was just being stubborn.
Around noon, Lu Feng called Zhang Fengxia to inquire about the situation at home.
"Are you done with your work? Come back when you're done. I have a meeting the day after tomorrow." Zhang Fengxia said calmly on the other end of the phone, "Come back, don't worry, no one will hit you!"
"What kind of talk is that? It's like someone can hit me. I'll go back now."
After hanging up the phone, Lu Feng put his suitcase in the car and headed straight for the villa.
It was the weekend, and Lu Feng had just returned home when he was stunned by what he saw. Duo Duo was pushing Miao Miao around in circles at the door, shouting, "Hold on tight, the plane is gaining power, it's about to take off!"
"Daddy's home!!"
In her excitement, Duoduo let go of Miaomiao's hand, and Miaomiao set sail for a long time.
Lu Feng stopped the car and rushed to pull the child's walker back, only to find that the child had already vomited milk.
"Is this how you play? You'll kill her in a minute," Lu Feng said to Duo Duo.
Jiang Xiaoyan came out and saw Lu Feng scolding Duo Duo, looking rather displeased. Zhang Fengxia hurriedly came out and said, "Let the child play. Besides, children are made of iron; what could possibly happen to them?"
"She's still young, you can easily break her, you know?"
Duoduo stared at Miaomiao and asked, "Are you happy?"
"Hehehe!" The little guy opened his mouth, revealing a row of baby teeth, and nodded, "Happy!"
"Don't keep the two kids from playing. Come inside," Zhang Fengxia said.
Lu Feng put the child in the walker and stepped into the house. Jiang Xiaoyan told Duo Duo not to play around and to hurry up and do her homework.
"Are you done with your work?" Jiang Xiaoyan pushed Miaomiao back, picked her up, and wiped her drool on her lap, saying, "We were reading the newspaper. You're a PhD now."
"They're all just empty titles, icing on the cake. If I go back to the US and start a company, and donate some money to my alma mater, as long as the money's enough, I can put you in the Hall of Fame directly." Zhang Fengxia peeled an orange and asked, "Are the terms more favorable this time? All sorts of honors?"
"We signed a ten-year contract, and there's quite a bit of good news." Lu Feng briefly recounted the situation with Sharp.
