Chapter 227 Wright’s Thoughts
China’s products are high-quality and low-price. For people outside China, this is only a vague concept. They know that cheap products are cheap, but they have not yet established such a consensus on high-quality products.
Because of selective reporting by Western media, most foreign people lack a rational understanding of how good China's manufacturing is.
But in the financial world, this is an indisputable fact.
Even in many originally high-end manufacturing industries, the Chinese have lowered prices to cabbage prices.
The space station of Guangjia Aerospace just proved this point once again.
“Wright, all goods related to China are so cheap that their competitiveness in the international market is so strong.
This is the entire situation in the past few decades. The reality faced by the international industrial economic cycle
Everyone would have thought that as China moves upstream in the manufacturing industry, its high-end manufacturing products will enjoy greater benefits as its technological content increases. A high premium means a relatively high price.
However, we found that it does not seem to be the case. Even with very high technical content, Chinese companies can still have good competitiveness without engaging in price wars. Choose a very low price to compete for the market
It feels to me like Chinese companies are hungry as never before. Without intense competition, they will immediately face the risk of bankruptcy.
But in the field of commercial aerospace, Guangjia Aerospace does not face a similar dilemma. Guangjia Aerospace’s only opponent is itself.
SpaceX and Guangjia have very little business overlap, and more importantly, there is very little customer overlap between SpaceX and Guangjia.
But Guangjia still gave very low prices like other Chinese companies.
I am very curious, why is this, and what is the essence behind the choice of all Chinese entrepreneurs? ”
Nikola's problem is very acute and profound. This is also a problem that all developed countries are currently worried about.
With the upgrading of China's industry, everyone's original profits will be wiped out, because even with zero profits, they will not be able to compete with China.
Hua's industrial advantage has changed from the labor force advantage in the past to the advantage of large-scale industrial production.
This is China’s unique advantage. Among the countries in the world, only Amerikan has it before, and Asan may have it in the future.
Chen Yuanguang raised his eyebrows, "To be honest, this is a question that many people are curious about, and various experts have answered it.
I can only talk about my views and why I made such a pricing strategy.
I think that all Chinese entrepreneurs make similar decisions at the same time because China’s manufacturing industry has only had a limited time to develop, and companies do not yet know how to obtain excess profits.
In addition, in the global trade system formulated by Amerikan, Chinese companies often have to work harder than companies from other countries to gain a foothold.
America is sparing no effort to relocate its industries outside of China, and is calling on their allies to do the same.
Under this current situation, Chinese enterprises do not have a good external environment for them to relax.
Finally, companies with technological advantages should use their technological advantages to gain excess profits, which is also a kind of exploitation in a sense.
It is a means for the first-developing industrial countries to exploit the late-developing countries. As a former exploited country, China will subconsciously not want to deprive the late-developing countries when we gain an advantage in this long-distance race. .
Here are some of my thoughts on this matter.
As for my personal pricing strategy, it is based on the fact that Guangjia Aerospace has no profit pressure or performance pressure. We need to expand the scale as soon as possible.
So we will set a relatively low price. As long as we don’t lose money, I think there is no problem.
We originally wanted to send the space station into space. It was not that difficult for us to send an extra module.
2 billion US dollars is relatively appropriate in my psychological price range. The price also does a good job of keeping out a slew of competitors. "
After Chen Yuanguang finished speaking, Nicholas quickly asked: "So are you willing at all or from a competitive perspective? "
Chen Yuanguang said: "Yes, the ultimate goal of a company is to survive. Profit is just a means, it is not the ultimate goal. ”
Nicholas said: "The point you just mentioned is very interesting. The first-developing industrial countries rely on technological advantages to exploit late-developing countries.
In fact, few Americen entrepreneurs would think from this perspective. In other words, Americans rarely talk about the word exploitation.
It is too socialistic.
You think China is still in the position of being exploited in economic globalization. "
Chen Yuanguang said: "In some fields, such as advanced biomedicine, high-end instruments, imported oil, etc., its pricing still contains some artificial manipulation. "< br>
"If you go by what you said, the area in which China was most exploited in the past must have been semiconductors. In the past, due to technology and some American policies, China was not only limited in its industrial development in this regard, but also suffered in terms of trade. Small limitations.
Is Topological Semimetal launching this project based on dissatisfaction with the status quo?
Chen Yuanguang thought for a while: "No, topological semimetal is more like an accident. It is because there was LK-99 first, and then I had a great idea and thought I could do something in the field of normal temperature superconductivity. Out.
Topological semimetals are an adjunct to room-temperature superconductivity.
It’s more like a beautiful accident.”
After Chen Yuanguang finished speaking, Nicholas slapped his head on the other end of the phone:
“Such an accident would not be so wonderful for Washington.
I think people in Washington will react after hearing this. They must be very upset, because this accident caused a complete failure of their strategy.
It also put the Federation’s technological leadership into an unprecedented crisis.”
Nikola is Norway’s sovereign wealth. The person in charge of the fund is undoubtedly Norwegian and European.
As a European, I obviously like to see Amerikan deflated.
“We have been buying technology companies in Silicon Valley in the past. We have large holdings in almost all of Big7 in Silicon Valley.” Nikola continued.
Big7 is the most famous technology giants in Silicon Valley.
“Our total assets under management are US$1.6 trillion. With such a huge scale, we have been increasing our equity holdings in Americen over the past ten years, from 30% to half.
For the first time in the past year, we have begun to reduce our shareholding in Americen Enterprises
Because we found that compared with Chinese companies, American's innovation is empty, like a beautiful-looking bubble.
The big reason for this is because of the impact of topological semi-metal. We realized that American's technology baquan is not as strong as they claimed.
Wright, if it weren’t for the fact that there were too few suitable underlying assets in the Chinese stock market, Guangjia Aerospace was not listed, Huawei was not listed, and supervision was not strict enough, we would have transferred the assets from the American stock market to the Chinese stock market. The proportion will be even higher. ”
Nicholas also wanted to complain about Greater Europe:
“Compared with Americans, Europeans don’t work hard enough, are not ambitious enough, have more supervision, and are always on Avoid risks.
I’m not talking about how well Amerikan is doing. For example, there are a lot of AI technologies, but there is no supervision. However, there is no AI in Europe but there is a lot of regulation.
Isn’t this funny?
However, compared with the Chinese, the Americans’ working hardness is far from enough. ”
