Chapter 899 Successfully Listed, Don't Underestimate the Fisherman

"Mr. Cao, our battery division has now started a double-shift mode. Although the delivery cycle of equipment is one or two months later than in previous years, it is still relatively fast in the entire industry."

"Especially compared with the imported equipment cycle, it is at least 3 months faster, and some equipment is even faster than half a year."

Pan Jinxing knows that Cao Yang is very knowledgeable about equipment and attaches great importance to the development of the equipment industry.

The continuous improvement of Nanshan Equipment's status in China in recent years is inseparable from Cao Yang's attention.

Nowadays, there are many orders for battery equipment, and Pan Jinxing naturally does not want to have any moths.

"The current battery technology is also advancing very fast, whether it is battery cells or modules, the changes are very fast."

"After investing in some battery production lines, they can only produce products of one specification."

"If you want to change the specifications, you need to modify the production line to meet the requirements."

"This situation should have become a headache for many battery manufacturers."

"Is it possible for us to improve the flexibility of the equipment so that a battery production line can produce batteries of several specifications without modification?"

"In this way, even if the investment amount of the production line has increased, many battery manufacturers should be very interested."

Cao Yang had just discussed the situation of the battery industry this year with Lin Cheng. Now he is talking to Pan Jinxing about the production of battery equipment, which is naturally targeted.

The equipment industry is originally special, and various types of equipment have a certain degree of independence.

To engage in flexible production, the requirements for equipment are the highest.

But this is indeed the general trend, and it must be done.

If Nanshan Equipment does not do it today, other manufacturers may start to do it tomorrow.

If the horse stumbles and is overtaken by others, it will be embarrassing.

Cao Yang does not expect that one production line can produce all types of batteries, but at least it can have a certain degree of flexibility, so that it can produce several types of batteries when switching some parameters.

This can greatly reduce the risk of battery factory investment and reduce the risk of Nanshan Battery taking some new orders.

After all, not every customer is willing to use the standard products recommended by Nanshan Battery.

"I will arrange someone to communicate with Nanshan Battery in this regard to see what degree of flexibility can maximize the comprehensive advantages."

Cao Yang has already said that, Pan Jinxing must implement it.

However, the battery production line is so long, how to make it a flexible production line is still very particular.

If one is not good, the money is spent, but the expected effect is not achieved, which is a pity.

"The equipment we produce must be flexible. Similarly, the production line of our production equipment should also be as flexible as possible."

"The efficiency of manual production alone is too low. Large-scale assembly line production requires large investment and low capacity utilization."

"How to find a compromise solution is something that needs to be carefully considered."

Why the delivery cycle of equipment is often long? One of the important reasons is that the production efficiency of the parts used on the equipment is not that high.

Therefore, unless it is a general-purpose equipment produced in advance, the cycle of customized equipment is often relatively long.

Some special equipment has a delivery cycle of two or even three years.

Of course, for Cao Yang, any equipment with a delivery cycle of more than one year is difficult to accept.

Especially in the face of the fast-changing Chinese market, the speed of investing in new factories needs to be as fast as possible.

Otherwise, the market becomes faster, and by the time your factory is put into production, the world has changed.

"Mr. Cao, you have hit the nail on the head."

"Like other industrial products, there are certain standards or it is easier to make a judgment on whether to invest in large-scale automated production lines, small-scale production lines, or manual production lines."

"But the equipment we produce is basically not in great demand within a certain period."

"Except for some general-purpose machine tools, many other equipment are customized."

"This means that many of our parts are not suitable for large-scale production."

"But some parts are definitely universal, and we need to consider the overall demand to arrange production, or we can consider large-scale production and use them as inventory."

"How to grasp the degree of this is a relatively big problem."

"I plan to set up a special research group with the School of Management of Lingnan University of Technology, so that everyone can study some of the relationships here and find the best management method."

With the development of Nanshan Equipment to the present, in addition to the continuous research of new technologies and new equipment, management improvement work obviously needs to be put on the agenda.

The traditional management method can no longer fully meet the current needs.

Pan Jinxing is quite clear about this, and Cao Yang can also understand this.

Although management methods are a relatively abstract existence, no one can deny their importance.

A good management plan with a good manager can eventually achieve an effect that is not necessarily smaller than a major technological breakthrough.

"This idea is good. Study it carefully and determine some methods as soon as possible."

"Take this opportunity to sort out the organizational structure and management methods of the entire Nanshan Equipment and find out some drawbacks."

Outside monks can chant.

Sometimes, it is not that everyone cannot find the problems within the company, but it is very difficult to change them.

On the one hand, existence is reasonable. If you want to change an existing management plan, it will definitely touch some vested interests, so many people are unwilling to be the bad guy.

On the other hand, if you point out the old problems, then the new method must be fine?

What if the changes become more and more chaotic, won't someone have to take the blame?

For various reasons, it is often difficult for enterprises to innovate themselves.

Why do many large companies like to ask outside consulting companies to do things? Of course, there is a factor of their rich experience, but asking outsiders to boldly help give suggestions, point out problems, or use outsiders to implement some management changes is also a very important reason.

Lingnan University of Technology has close relations with Nanshan-affiliated companies, and many professors' research projects are related to Nanshan-affiliated companies.

Asking them to cooperate, on the one hand, has a decent professional level, and on the other hand, the school's graduate students and doctoral students are bolder and dare to speak out when they see problems.

Although the experience is not as good as that of consulting companies, Nanshan Equipment sometimes needs outsiders to point out problems.

As for specific solutions, they can actually be found through internal discussions.

Since Pan Jinxing is already dealing with this matter, Cao Yang did not say anything specific.

The company is big, and he can't follow everything himself.

Of course, people from each company will also try their best to exert their subjective initiative, and everyone still wants to perform well in front of Cao Yang.

For example, at Autohome, Yu Yu came here today to report a new change on the website to Cao Yang.

"Mr. Cao, we plan to focus on channels and articles related to electric vehicles in the future."

"These articles have a high flow rate, and netizens are also very interested, which is also in line with future development trends."

As the largest professional automotive media in China, Autohome has a lot of information.

They are also very clear about what content netizens want to see.

Analyzing and sorting out relevant content and finally forming some professional reports have become a new business for Autohome.

Most of the domestic OEMs will purchase some professional report materials from Autohome.

Although it is just a simple piece of information, the price is not cheap.

"Electric vehicles are developing very fast, and they are indeed worthy of attention."

"However, traditional fuel vehicles will not withdraw from the market so quickly."

"Autohome can show more content related to electric vehicles when it reforms."

"On the other hand, in the field of luxury cars, we should still promote more traditional fuel vehicles, especially the content of large-displacement engines."

Adults consider things without distinguishing right from wrong, but only look at benefits.

Cao Yang is naturally similar.

The core interest of Nanshan Automobile Group is luxury cars, among which Xingchen Automobile and Jaguar Land Rover are both taking the route of traditional fuel vehicles.

Even if PHEV and FHEV are also being developed, there are still engines.

Therefore, the promotion of engines cannot lag behind. Even if the technology of these Nanshan engine products has not made any progress and they are all relying on old capital, they still need to find some topics to promote.

This is the benefit of the existence of Autohome to Nanshan Automobile Group.

"Understand, we will continue to promote this aspect as always."

"At the same time, we will also promote and introduce some technologies on three-electric parts, so that professional personnel can also be full of interest in our website."

It is obviously difficult for a website to be appreciated by both the elite and the masses.

If Autohome wants to gain the favor of more consumers, it cannot write articles too profoundly and cannot have too high a reading threshold.

But if they are all some relatively watery articles, professionals will feel that there is no dry goods and will gradually lose interest.

A professional automotive media, but professional automotive people are not interested, this is obviously not a good phenomenon.

So Yu Yu has been trying to balance these two somewhat contradictory things.

Overall, she has done a good job in this regard.

"In addition to changes in content, changes in form are also very important."

"4G mobile phones are now fully popular, and the Internet speed is relatively fast. People will be more enthusiastic about watching videos in the future."

"Some articles introducing car models can be recorded with videos at the same time, so that people can also learn the information they want by watching videos."

Although it is only 2014, the development speed of Internet video websites is very fast, and people have gradually developed the habit of watching videos.

This will obviously affect the reading volume of various media.

Traditional paper media has begun to decline sharply in the past two years.

"We have now formed our own video shooting team. At the same time, we have also cooperated with Nanshan Film and Television to conduct in-depth exchanges on related video shooting technologies, and arranged for some photographers and other personnel to exchange and learn with each other's companies."

Yu Yu naturally attaches great importance to what Cao Yang cares about.

At this moment, she is very glad that she has made a lot of preparations in this regard.

Of course, this is also closely related to some similar words Cao Yang said before.

"Boss Cao, it's almost time to leave."

Seeing that more than ten minutes had passed since Yu Yu's scheduled report, Cao Yang was still communicating with Yu Yu about various things about Autohome, and Mi Ying couldn't help but come in to remind him.

Later, they would go to Baiyun Airport to take a flight to Shanghai to participate in important activities of the investment company.

Seeing Mi Ying urging, Yu Yu would naturally not delay Cao Yang's time any longer.

"Is everything normal at Guangwei?"

As an important supplement to Nanshan Carbon Fiber, Cao Yang paid more attention to Guangwei Carbon Fiber at the beginning.

However, after getting on the right track, he didn't spend much energy.

At most, when each business unit makes a quarterly report every quarter, he will learn about the relevant situation.

Overall, Guangwei Carbon Fiber focuses on the production of T300, T400 and T600 carbon fibers.

While Nanshan Carbon Fiber focuses on carbon fibers above T700 and their composite materials.

Of course, in addition to raw materials, Guangwei Carbon Fiber's main business is the production of fishing gear such as fishing rods, as well as the production of sports goods such as golf clubs and badminton rackets.

Although ordinary people have basically never heard of this company, Guangwei and Nanshan Carbon Fiber have basically monopolized the carbon fiber supply market in China.

Other manufacturers can only produce some poor quality T300 and below carbon fiber products at most.

From the perspective of turnover, 99% of carbon fiber turnover occurs in Guangwei and Nanshan Carbon Fiber.

Even because of the suppression of the United States, the output of Nanshan Carbon Fiber has been increasing every year.

As for Guangwei, it is even more needless to say, because there are still a large number of fishing rods and other products produced, which is equivalent to producing part of the raw materials themselves and then consuming them themselves.

Of course, the raw materials for high-end fishing rods are purchased from Nanshan Carbon Fiber.

"Everything is going according to plan. Tomorrow is the listing bell. By then, the market value of Guangwei Carbon Fiber is likely to exceed 10 billion yuan."

Mi Ying is obviously still very optimistic about Guangwei's prospects.

Backed by Nanshan Carbon Fiber, Guangwei Carbon Fiber is almost invincible in China.

The once high-end carbon fiber products are no longer so far away from everyone.

For example, new models of Xingchen Automobile and Jaguar Land Rover basically use some carbon fiber parts.

And sports car products use a lot of carbon fiber.

Even aerospace products such as the Twin-tailed Scorpion UAV are also reducing their overall production costs due to the continuous decline in carbon fiber prices.

This is definitely very beneficial for China to develop the aerospace industry.

"Guangwei, the fishing guy, is now listed. I guess many companies are ready to move."

So far, except for Weibo, none of the companies in the Nanshan system have been listed.

This is mainly Cao Yang's idea.

After all, if the company is not short of money, the significance of listing is not very large.

Normally, the financing of the stock market is to raise funds for better development.

Of course, this situation has slowly changed.

Some Chinese companies regard listing as a way to cash out at a high position.

Some companies also regard listing as a way to fleece stockholders.

Cao Yang is obviously not interested in these.

"That's true. Not to mention early companies like Xingchen Auto and Nanshan Equipment, even within companies like Venusstar Technology, Nanshan Semiconductor and Autohome, there is a strong demand for listing."

"After all, according to convention, executives and key employees will be given shares or opportunities to purchase original shares before listing."

"Once successfully listed, many people will completely achieve financial freedom."

On the way to Baiyun Airport, Mi Ying and Cao Yang were discussing the topic of listing.

She herself is actually quite interested in this topic.

After all, if all the companies in the Nanshan Group are listed, the total market value will definitely be very exaggerated.

Just thinking about the gimmick at that time makes people excited.

"You are right, but everyone is financially free, and I guess few people are willing to work hard."

As soon as Cao Yang said this, Mi Ying was silenced.

Just imagine, if all the middle-level and above personnel get more than 10 million yuan through listing, then these people's work attitudes may really change dramatically.

It is even normal for some people to resign and not go to work.

This will definitely affect the development of the company to a certain extent.

As an industrial enterprise, the impetuous atmosphere is very detrimental to the development of the company.

Cao Yang does not want such a situation to occur.

So he would rather use relatively high salaries and bonuses to attract everyone, rather than easily arrange listing.

Even if he wants to go public, he will not put all the companies on the market.

At most, he will selectively arrange a few to test the waters.

"Mr. Cao, most of the fields involved in our various business units are currently among the best in the industry."

"There will definitely be more and more companies coming in to compete with us. At that time, many companies will probably think of various ways to poach people from our group in order to take shortcuts."

"Although their salaries may not be higher at that time, they can be allocated a lot of shares to attract talents."

It must be said that Mi Ying's worry is not unreasonable at all.

Even similar things will definitely happen in some fields in the future.

But Cao Yang is not very worried.

If other companies imitate and follow, he will fall into a passive situation, which means that the previous wall was built too weak.

The so-called technical advantage is not a real advantage.

I need to work harder.

"This matter does need to be arranged for someone to keep an eye on it. If some opponents go too far, then kill them and treat it as a warning to the monkeys."

Cao Yang is not a soft-hearted person.

When it is time to take action, there is no need to be polite at all.

Otherwise, the biggest loss will definitely be himself.

…

“Mr. Cao, you personally attended the listing event of Guangwei Carbon Fiber. I feel that the stock price will increase by ten points after the market opens tomorrow.”

Chen Liang, the founder of Guangwei, personally came to the Shanghai Airport to pick him up.

After all, to some extent, Cao Yang can be regarded as his boss.

Guangwei’s current situation is related to his own efforts, but it is also inseparable from Cao Yang’s support.

At the beginning, the carbon fiber technology of T300 and T400 was transferred to Guangwei by Nanshan Carbon Fiber.

And Guangwei’s production lines for carbon fiber were also purchased from Nanshan Equipment.

As long as Cao Yang wants to support a new opponent, Guangwei’s beautiful situation will immediately disappear.

“With Guangwei’s performance and prospects, it will inevitably usher in several days of daily limit after listing. At that time, it will not be a problem for the market value to exceed 20 billion.”

When Mi Ying talked to Cao Yang about Guangwei’s stock price today, she felt that the other party’s market value would exceed 10 billion tomorrow.

But Cao Yang’s view is more bold.

Considering Guangwei's position in the carbon fiber industry, a market value of 10 billion is just the beginning. In the past month, it is expected to reach 20 billion.

With the continuous expansion of Guangwei's carbon fiber production capacity and the strengthening of its monopoly in the industry, it is not a dream for the market value to exceed 50 billion.

However, Cao Yang did not say these words.

In 2014, there were not many companies with a market value of over 100 billion.

No one would believe that any newly listed company could break 50 billion.

"Domestic demand for carbon fiber materials is indeed rising, and the growth rate of fishing rod-related products is also very gratifying."

"Especially the number of people who like fishing in China is constantly increasing, and these people have very strong consumption power."

Chen Liang did not deliberately pretend to be modest.

He himself is indeed very optimistic about the company's development prospects and the prospects of the carbon fiber industry.

This is definitely a sunrise industry.

The next day, Guangwei Carbon Fiber reached the upper limit of 44% in less than ten minutes under the joint ringing of the bell by Cao Yang and Chen Liang.

After that, there were almost no sell orders, but more and more buy orders.

Obviously, everyone is optimistic about Guangwei's reaction in the next few days.

Under normal circumstances, it is very likely that there will be a few more daily limits.

This made Chen Liang, who was still in the exchange, very excited.

After receiving generous travel expenses, various media outlets were also very active in reporting on the matter.

[The "counterattack" of a fishing rod! ]

[From a small fishing rod workshop to a carbon fiber giant, how the obsession of the fisherman forced Guangwei to counterattack and rise to the top]

[Guangwei successfully went public, hitting the daily limit on the first day, with a market value of over 10 billion! ]

[Guangwei, the pride of China's carbon fiber industry, successfully went public! ]

[Guangwei, one of the two leaders in carbon fiber, performed brilliantly on the first day of listing! ]

…

Various reports have made Guangwei Carbon Fiber a little famous.

However, not every company is happy to see this happen.
