Premier Wen said at the beginning of the year: "This year will be the most difficult year for enterprises." Not long ago, there were reports that 76,000 SMEs went bankrupt in the first half of this year. Many people are yelling that "the winter of business is coming", and it is necessary to prepare cotton coats for the winter. What is the impact on NVC on the basic situation that raw materials and labor costs are rising?
Wu Changjiang: This situation of this year, I have already expected it 10 years ago.
Entrepreneurs must have a strategic vision. What is strategic vision? The strategic vision is to have a vision of peace of mind. NVC products were very popular 10 years ago, and dealers are waiting for the goods in front of my factory. Most of the time, the money is first paid to my NVC account, and it can be picked up after one month. At that time, the gross profit was not at the current level, and most of them were around 60%. This is very high. However, in this context, we have no brains, and we only seek profits without long-term interests. At that time, I was forced to invest almost all of NVC's profits in R&D and brand building. This was not understood by many people at the time, including my executives. When I was in the Spring Festival in 2000, I borrowed money from my friends for the New Year, because all the money was invested in marketing and brand building.
Looking back now, if there is no original investment, it is hard to imagine whether NVC will encounter the same difficulties today. Therefore, I believe that doing business should have a strategic vision of being prepared for danger.
It seems that NVC products also use steel.
Wu Changjiang: Of course. And the amount is still very large. For example, ceiling lighting, energy-saving downlights, and energy-saving lamps are all made of high-quality steel.
Chinese businessman: How does NVC respond to rising raw material and labor costs?
Wu Changjiang: We believe that this price increase is a time to test the comprehensive strength and resistance of enterprises, and it is also the beginning of adjusting the standardized operation of enterprises. Of course, the various costs are rising, then the price of our products is also raised accordingly. Through years of support and investment in customers and the market, we have certain brand advantages in the industry. Therefore, our business investment has shown great resistance to pressure for many years. What's more, steel prices are rising, oil prices are rising, labor costs are rising, environmental requirements, energy conservation and consumption reduction requirements, and many of these factors that lead to rising costs are not for the NVC family, but for all companies, or even global growth. . At this time everyone is at the starting line, to see who can digest these factors, who can gain the competitive advantage. For NVC, on the one hand, we optimize the process, save internal expenses and increase market input; on the other hand, we strengthen the independent research and development, increase the added value of products, and enhance the core competitiveness of enterprises. On July 8, we invested tens of millions of yuan to establish the NVC Lighting R&D Center in Shanghai, aiming to develop new energy-saving lighting fixtures, light sources and electrical appliances to provide core power for the continuous development of NVC.
I came to the Bird's Nest yesterday to watch the opening ceremony of the 29th Beijing Olympic Games. Many light source products and lighting products on the court were NVC products. I was very proud of that moment. NVC lighting products can enter the Olympic venues, and it is worthwhile to explain that our investment in technology in recent years is worthwhile.
Lighting information, more exciting
