Foxconn, as the world's largest foundry, and even Apple's "royal foundry", must have a strong strength behind this. However, the rise of Foxconn is inevitably inseparable from the support of the mainland market.
After all, when Gou Taiming came to Shenzhen to establish Foxconn, he just sat on the dividend of China's reform and opening up, caught up with the domestic demographic dividend, so that he made great progress in the foundry industry.
After Foxconn gained a firm foothold in the mainland market, it also began to get the favor of Apple. With strong foundry strength, it has been recognized by Apple, so that it has won most of Apple's mobile phone orders.
After having apples as a backer, Gou Taiming also began to "float", not only building factories in the land across the country, but also releasing a bold statement: Foxconn is giving 3 million farmers on the mainland a reward for food.
To this day, Foxconn has 44 factories in the country and has become the world's largest foundry giant, which has also made Foxconn a lot of money in recent years.
As a result, after the United States issued a "ban order" on Huawei, Foxconn also stopped serving Huawei in order not to offend the United States. This also made BYD start to emerge in the foundry industry.
Although the loss of Huawei, a big customer, Foxconn's revenue has not been much affected, after all, only relying on Apple's "golden father" can make Foxconn rest assured. In particular, the iPhone 12 and iPhone 13 in the past two years have made Foxconn a lot of money.
However, with the technological competition between China and the United States, Apple has also begun to consciously or unconsciously embark on "de-Sinicization" and not rely too much on the Chinese market. In the past two years, Chinese manufacturers have been continuously kicked out of its "fruit chain", and more than 34 companies have been "fired" before and after, and gradually began to turn to Southeast Asia and India.
Although as strong as Foxconn, it can only obey Apple's arrangement and start to move the production line to India.
It can be seen that in the past two years, Foxconn has invested more than 20 billion yuan in India to build a semiconductor project factory. At the same time, with an investment of more than 140 billion yuan to build an iPhone production line, on the one hand, you can continue to get a large number of orders from Apple, on the other hand, you can also get subsidies and demographic dividends from the Indian side.
This also led to Gou Taiming began to drift, releasing wild words: the mainland market has been inseparable from Foxconn, although I can go to the United States to build a factory, to India to build a factory to expand my own power. So much so that he did not hesitate to quit the 340,000 workers on the mainland, because in his view, the mainland market has passed the demographic dividend period, and there is no need to take root in the mainland market.
However, what surprised Gou was that he would be punched in the face so quickly!
Due to the capriciousness of global "masks", many factories are unable to get on the right track. In the mainland market, it is normal, and in foreign markets, it is simply unsightly, let alone the Indian market. This also led to Foxconn's consecutive years of losses in the Indian market, and life was not satisfactory.
At the same time, Foxconn thought that in the Indian market can eat a cheap demographic dividend, but as we all know, India's cheap labor force is "miserable", three days of fishing and two days of drying nets, whether it is production efficiency or technical level is far inferior to China's labor talents. Moreover, India's industrial supporting facilities are not perfect, and many times it is necessary to import original accessories from China.
To put it bluntly, Foxconn has basically no profit except for being able to eat cheap population and subsidy dividends in the Indian market.
Gou Taiming said on the front foot that the mainland market could not be separated from him, if it were not for Foxconn, the 3 million farmers on the mainland would not be able to eat, and as a result, the back foot of Foxconn would return to the mainland market. Because he has been in India for many years, Foxconn is still in a state of loss, and Gou Taiming has no regrets, and he can only pull his face back in desperation.
In fact, Gou Taiming is obviously holding up the bowl to eat, putting down the chopsticks and scolding the mother. The reason why it was called the richest man at the beginning was also because it was full of money in the mainland market.
However, after getting rich, Foxconn began to forget his roots, forgetting how he got rich. If it were not for the support of China's large number of farmers to Foxconn, Foxconn would not be where it is today.
To put it bluntly, Foxconn's achievements today are inseparable from the Chinese market. Of course, China's manufacturing industry can develop so rapidly, but also the emergence of Foxconn. At the same time, it has also promoted the establishment of many giant enterprises in the Chinese market, brought many jobs, and promoted economic development.
If Foxconn had not come to the Chinese market, it would not have been possible to get a large number of orders from Apple today, let alone become a leader in the industry! #October Finance New Forces ##头条创作挑战赛 #
