Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

"In this way, at the end of this year, we will summarize all the funds, and how is the work done this year on the connection with those small families, small poor families, small clans, etc.?" Li Ke asked about the most critical strategy of encircling the cities from the countryside. .

It is not difficult to dig out the roots of a powerful family. The strategy of encircling the city from the countryside can only be said to be an eternal god!

No matter how powerful the powerful family is, without the most basic people who can be plundered as a foundation, they are all paper tigers.

"At present, there are ten roads in the world, and we have probably completed about [-]% of them. Basically, all the roads, counties, and states have already contacted some of them. We have made cotton (kapok is not cotton) hemp silk silk looms, and the spinning machines have been given to some of them. The small families have all carried out trial production, and they heard that they are cooperating with His Highness, and they all expressed their willingness." Tian Meng said.

"However, we have also collected some problems that need to be solved urgently." Tian Meng said.

"Tell me." Li Ke sat up straight.

"That is, when we contacted these small families and signed the contract, we passed the news back through the inside of the business. Many families have responded to a problem, that is, if we take over this business, it may cause social problems. There is turmoil, because a considerable part of the people who raise silkworms, sell silk, and grow various hemp and kapok crops are actually self-produced and sold.”

"That is to say, their income is planted by themselves, and then spun by themselves, or spun into hemp thread, and then woven into silk, linen, etc. to pay taxes, sell, and buy things."

"If we replace all of these parts, then this means that these people may not be able to survive." Tian Meng said.

Li Ke nodded with a serious face. After all, he is a modern person and does not understand this era. The emergence of spinning machines and looms will definitely replace the work of a considerable number of people, but Li Ke originally wanted to replace Most of the weavers of the powerful families, etc., now it seems that this group of people may be the most influential.

So this is why Li Ke came up with this plan this year, but did not implement it directly. He needs to investigate the actual situation.

If the market is formed in this way, it means that there are not many raw materials that Li Ke can purchase.

If you want to do this, there is only one trick, relying on the advantage of your own productivity improvement, first kill the related industries of the powerful family.

how to do?This should not be too simple, there is no need to use the trick of encircling the city from the countryside.

If you want to kill them, first analyze which part of the real industry of the powerful family occupies.

They occupy the middle section, that is to say, they are responsible for the production, such as silk, hemp, and cotton, they do not produce, they only buy raw materials, and then hire people to produce the final finished product, especially high-end silk, as well.

Li Ke thought of a very typical case. How did the domestic photovoltaic industry rise and sweep the world after more than 1000 years, and then was divided and eaten by European and American powers, and then returned to China to expand domestic demand, and finally swept the world again. Li Ke has read relevant materials for the soul-stirring business history.

The photovoltaic industry started from a speech by Carter next door in 1979. At that time, Carter said that this was the greatest adventure of the whole country. Carter was right, but he said the wrong country.

In 1996, the World Solar Energy Conference was held in Zimbabwe. At that time, photovoltaics entered the field of vision of rabbits, because there were 7656 million people without electricity in rabbits at that time.These populations are concentrated in the northwest region, away from the grid, with small loads and wide distribution. If they are directly pulled by the national grid, it will cost a lot of money, and photovoltaics can reverse all this.

In the second year of the Zimbabwe Conference, Rabbit began to implement the Bright Project, which established thousands of independent power generation systems in the west through solar and wind energy, and solved the electricity problem of more than 700 villages.

It is also because of this project that created the first generation of photovoltaic companies in China at that time, such as Suntech, LDK, Trina Solar, etc. Unlike other industries that endured humiliation, Rabbit’s photovoltaic industry had a dazzling start.

In 04, Europe and the United States began to promote energy transformation under the pressure of various environmental protection and other ideological trends. Photovoltaic and wind power are the best choices. Enterprises from rural areas in Northwest China are well aware that the core of photovoltaics is cost, and Rabbit's advantage is also cost.

So Rabbit’s photovoltaic companies went overseas collectively, ushering in the first high-gloss. Suntech and other companies were listed on the New York Stock Exchange in 05. By 07, Rabbit’s photovoltaic companies had reached thousands!It occupied half of the world's photovoltaic enterprises at that time.

But at that time, Rabbit’s photovoltaic company lacked manufacturing technology upstream and power station technology downstream, and the entire industry was concentrated on photovoltaic modules, that is, the midstream.

And when 90.00% of the raw materials are imported, 90.00% of the products are exported to Europe and the United States, and 90.00% of the core technologies are not in our own hands.

So these fat and delicious photovoltaic companies ushered in from Wall Street to the City of London to Frankfurt, and all the themes have become one, hunting rabbits for photovoltaic companies.

In the international market in 05, polysilicon, the main raw material for photovoltaic panels, was $40, so these European and American suppliers took a fancy to the weakness of Rabbit photovoltaic companies’ lack of technology, and directly pushed up the price of silicon crystal raw materials. USD/kg, doubled by 08 times!

As midstream processing enterprises, these photovoltaic enterprises do not have the right to set prices downstream, and the price depends entirely on the buyer's bid, so all foreign buyers buy at a lower price. These photovoltaic enterprises once fell into the dilemma of selling at a loss.

So under the siege from both ends, the first wave of the market of these photovoltaic companies was swallowed up, and these photovoltaic companies tried to resist in the middle.

They tried to control the initiative in the raw material market, but financiers would not give them a chance. At the beginning of 08, polysilicon in the international market was hot again, and upstream suppliers took the opportunity to propose long-term supply agreements to these photovoltaic companies. Looking at the international market is still soaring. For polysilicon, photovoltaic companies worried that the cost will continue to increase have signed contracts one after another to lock in production in advance.

There are even companies that lock in production for ten years.

After these companies signed a long-term supply agreement, the international price of polysilicon plummeted instantly. In less than a year, the price of polysilicon plummeted from US$500/kg to US$40/kg.

These photovoltaic companies have basically locked in the output for 3-10 years at a high level, so they were drained of their last breath.Because of tearing up the agreement, the compensation is also a huge sum of money.

So the first batch of photovoltaic companies fell like this. As for the game between the double anti-monopoly and other investigations in the later period, that is another story. Anyway, in the last 19 years, the world photovoltaic market that was once defeated, the rabbit’s market share Instead of falling, it increased to more than 65%.

But what Li Ke wants to play at this moment is to hunt for the first batch of photovoltaic companies in the West!
