691. The Industrial Chain Has Been Transferred To The White Elephant Kingdom. Has The Third Brother
"In addition to iPhones, our Mac laptops and the newly released Apple Vision Pro will also be produced in the White Elephant Country."
Apple CEO Puke Ke spoke eloquently in front of the media.
"Why should we transfer the OEM orders and industrial chain from Longguo to Sange? What advantages does Sange have in OEM and industrial chain?"
Apple CEO Puke thought for a moment and replied: "Mainly in response to the government's policy of de-risking and decoupling the industrial chain."
"Due to the confrontation between Eagle Sauce and Dragon Kingdom officials, the risk of continuing to produce mobile phones in Dragon Kingdom "Zero Seventeen" is getting higher and higher. It is very likely to face high tariffs and bans on Eagle Sauce. So we must change this as soon as possible. .”
"There is also the fact that 80% of Apple's production capacity and supply chain are now in Long Country, which in itself involves huge risks and uncertainties."
"The purpose of our move is not to break away from Longguo. Longguo is still our largest market and the most important source of supply chain. We are just to improve the security and stability of the supply chain."
Puke is still stressing that he will not leave the Dragon Kingdom completely. This may be sincere, or it may be just to appease the Dragon Kingdom.
After all, Apple is still inseparable from the Dragon Kingdom.
It can be said that without Longguo’s strong supply chain and industrial capabilities, Apple would not be what it is today.
Apple may still make good products, but it won't be able to produce such high volumes and maintain such stable product quality.
It can be said that Longguo’s industrial capabilities, the foundries represented by Futukang, a number of Apple supply chain companies, and Apple have achieved mutual success.
The current Apple cannot do without Long Hua.
It can only be said that it is gradually and slowly separating the OEM orders and industrial chain from Longguo.
Frankly speaking, Apple is the most friendly company to the Dragon Kingdom among all the companies in Eagle Sauce.
It has brought hundreds of billions of orders and millions of jobs to Long Country.
More than one president of Yingjiang has asked Apple to produce mobile phones and computers in Yingjiang, so as to provide more jobs for Yingjiang.
They were all rejected by Apple’s CEO.
But this time, the pressure from Yingjiang was too much.
Opposing the Dragon Kingdom, confronting the Dragon Kingdom, and decoupling from the Dragon Kingdom have become the consensus of everyone in Yingjiang.
Under such great pressure, Apple had to compromise.
In addition, after Apple's accurate calculations, Longguo's labor costs have indeed risen rapidly. Moving the foundry to Third Brother can save a lot of costs.
And the third brother's magic flute fairy promised a lot of benefits.
So we hit it off immediately.
Apple has signed cooperation agreements with several conglomerates, including Reliance Industries owned by the former richest man Ambani, Adani's Ada Group, the current richest man, and Tata Group, the largest company of the third brother.
Apple's major foundries, Futukang, Luxshare and Wistron, are also in full swing at Sange's factory.
Even the Adani Group did not even need to build a factory and directly occupied the seven factories that Xiaomi Company had previously built in Sange.
Anyway, it was Xiaomi who was officially cut off by Third Brother until it was uprooted, and has now been completely evacuated.
These factories fell into the hands of the three chaebols with almost no effort...
Apple has signed supply and OEM contracts with these companies.
If all goes well, by the end of the year, 15% of the world's iPhones will be produced in Sange.
Although it is still not as good as the output of Dragon Kingdom.
But the trend of Apple's withdrawal from the Dragon Kingdom and moving to the Third Brother is already inevitable.
And the transfer speed is so fast. Let the whole world be stunned.
A reporter from the media asked: "Mr. Puke, what are the benefits of transferring the industrial chain and orders to Third Brother? In other words, what advantages does Third Brother have compared with Longguo?"
Apple CEO Pou Ke pondered for a moment and replied: "First of all, the labor cost of Third Brother is cheaper. The wages of Third Brother's workers are only one-third to one-fifth of those of Longguo workers, which can save a large part of the cost." .”
"The second point is that Yingjiang has imposed extremely high tariffs on products exported from Longguo. This is part of the trade war. But there are no restrictions in this regard when exporting mobile phones from Sange.
"The third point is that the official relationship between Sange and Yingjiang is better and more stable, and there will be no policy risks.
"The third brother also had many shortcomings before. The most typical example is that the infrastructure is not perfect and is far inferior to that of Longguo. Road transportation and stable power supply are all big problems."
"But now Sange officials are working hard to solve these problems. Especially the problem of power shortage. Before, Sange's power supply was unstable. But they built the largest supercritical thermal power station in the country, the Shasheng coal-fired power plant. "
"This power plant was built by China Overseas Electric from Long State with the help of Third Brother."
