161: Crazy year-end meeting

As for why so much was needed, there was no choice. With Zhongxin International, which also wanted to acquire an 8-inch wafer fab and its affiliated factories, acting as a disruptive force.

Therefore, Motorola, having the opportunity to name its price, would certainly not go easy. If Shuguang Technology wanted to be absolutely sure, it had to prepare 12 billion Xia Yuan, which is 1.45 billion US dollars.

Can Shuguang Technology afford such a large sum of money now?

No, it cannot!

Based on its current monthly sales of 550,000 units, a monthly income of 191 million, and a maximum annual income of 2.28 billion, it would take Shuguang Technology 5 years to earn that much money.

After all, Shuguang Technology itself needs to invest huge amounts of capital in research and development, operational expenses, and advertising and marketing.

So, although the monthly income is 191 million, most of this money is actually allocated to R&D, operational expenses, and advertising, leaving not much money saved.

Under these circumstances, if Shuguang Technology wants to own its own chip manufacturing factory, it can only go out, into the Global market!

Only then might it be able to afford an extremely expensive third-rate chip factory in the world. Only then can Shuguang Technology use this as a foundation to realize its dream of breaking the foreign technology blockade!

Of course, at this time, Shuguang Technology did not know Motorola’s plans. At this time, Shuguang Technology was preparing for a conference that was destined to make all R&D personnel in the country go crazy.

Several days later, on the afternoon of January 31, 2003, it was just one day before the Spring Festival.

At this time, a year-end conference was underway in a large stadium in Pengcheng.

The stadium was filled with tens of thousands of people, all of whom were Shuguang Technology employees and their families, with the exception of over a hundred reporters.

At this time, these family members, including men, women, old, and young, completely filled the central open space of a large stadium in Pengcheng, and even the surrounding spectator stands were packed with people.

After all, the core purpose of this year-end conference was not only to tell the world how much money R&D personnel at Shuguang R&D Center could earn.

It was also to tell all aspiring individuals how good the conditions and how generous the benefits were working at Shuguang Technology, urging them to find a way to join Shuguang Technology…

…

At the scene of the year-end conference.

“Shuguang Technology is actually holding a year-end conference at this time, and tomorrow is the Spring Festival holiday. I wanted to go back for the New Year, so frustrating.”

“No choice, that’s how it is for reporters. We reporters don’t have a concept of New Year’s, we have to go when there’s a task.”

“Yes, being a reporter is too hard, I really want to go home for the New Year.”

“Yes, if this year-end conference were held after the New Year, it would be great, and we wouldn’t have to come here.”

“Indeed.”

But at this moment, a reporter turned the topic to other aspects:

“I wonder if this year-end conference will be interesting? Since we’re already here, we should try to get some big news.”

“There should be big news, according to the pattern, Shuguang Technology always has big news whenever they gather so many reporters.”

“Indeed, but since this is a year-end conference, the main topic of the news should be about the dividends, right?”

“It should be so. I wonder how much those high-level executives of Shuguang Technology can get?

I heard that Lin Chen, the boss of Shuguang Technology, is relatively stingy, he is unwilling to offer company shares to attract core talents.

He is only willing to increase performance dividends for core talents, so the dividend amount at this year-end conference should be much higher than other companies.”

“It should indeed be much higher, after all, without shares, the dividends must be a very large number.”

“That’s right, it should be so.”

“I feel the same way, the number should not be small.” …

The reporters at the scene were discussing information related to the year-end conference before it officially began.

As they discussed, the realization that Shuguang Technology would create a major event this time gradually emerged in the reporters’ minds.

They then became full of anticipation for Shuguang Technology’s year-end conference, wondering if this conference could create a super big news story that would shock the entire country.

Time passed bit by bit, and when it was 3 PM, the opening music officially sounded on the stage of the year-end conference.

At this time, Lin Chen also slowly walked onto the stage with a group of high-level executives, among them Lei Bu Si, Chen Dong, Huang Hua, Ni Guangnan, and Li Qianqiang, among other executives.

“Good afternoon, colleagues and your families, I am Lin Chen, and I am very happy that everyone is attending this year-end conference.

Alright, without further ado, let’s get to the main topic, Are you ok?”

“Hahaha, ready.”

“We’ve been waiting.”

“Yes, yes.” …

Hearing Lin Chen’s words, the people at the scene also responded with enthusiastic voices.

Seeing this, Lin Chen nodded slightly and continued.

“First, the first thing at this year-end conference is to express gratitude. Thanks to the hard work of all colleagues, we have continuously created miracles, allowing us to grow from a small mobile phone factory to the leader of domestic mobile phones today.

Although we do not yet have the title of domestic mobile phone leader, we already have the substance of a domestic mobile phone leader.

When our sales figures for next month are released, then no one will ever question our position as the leader of domestic mobile phones.

For this, I, along with all the high-level executives, deeply thank you for your silent dedication, your efforts, and your hard work.”

Speaking of this, Lin Chen and the high-level executives of Shuguang Technology behind him all bowed.

Immediately, the employees and their families at the scene were all excited and applauded when they saw this scene, feeling even warmer in their hearts.

After all, nothing warms the heart more than being affirmed and thanked after making efforts and contributions.

“Clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap…”

At this time, the applause was exceptionally enthusiastic. Both the employees and their families at the scene clapped very forcefully.

Because they all deeply loved Shuguang Technology and were happy and proud that they or their husbands or wives could work at Shuguang Technology.

Because Shuguang Technology has done something that most companies cannot do with facts: they treat their employees as human beings, not as machines or livestock.

Working at Shuguang Technology not only offers about 10% higher wages than competitors, but more importantly, it provides free skill training to all employees, giving them opportunities for advancement.

As the saying goes, “I could have endured the darkness, if I had not seen the light.” Before coming to Shuguang Technology, they were undoubtedly in darkness.

But after coming to Shuguang Technology, here they have not only about 10% higher wages than other mobile phone counterparts, but also very generous treatment in terms of food, clothing, housing, and transportation.

Finally, coupled with the opportunity to freely learn various knowledge and receive skill training, and after completing the training, they will be promoted to corresponding positions according to their assessed abilities. Even if their position is not promoted, if there is an opportunity, they will be prioritized for internal promotion.

So all of this is simply too wonderful, like a dream.
