Reborn in 1991, helping dad become the richest man

Chapter 222: Making History! Tang's Car Registration!

On March 14, 1995, humans obtained dinosaur genetic material from dinosaur egg fossils for the first time.

On the same day, a pirated VCD was placed on the conference table of Wanhua's shareholders' meeting.

This was obtained from the after-sales department.

It is not a company brand, but a copy of Wanhua's first generation. The outer box design is exactly the same as Wanhua's, even the image of Jet Li and the trademark on it are the same.

The only difference between these patterns and trademarks is that Wanhua's trademark is molded by compression during injection molding, while this one is just a sticker.

As for the interior, it was even more rough, obviously pieced together from various parts.

Even worse, the circuit boards are all different sizes.

However, for those who are not very familiar with Wanhua VCD, they will definitely not notice the appearance of this thing.

So he successfully entered the market.

However, due to the rough quality, quality problems arose after just a few days of use. The other party then called Wanhua's after-sales service hotline and mailed the product to Wanhua's after-sales department.

However, as soon as the product arrived at the after-sales department, problems were discovered and subsequently reported up the chain of command. This VCD was also placed on the table at the shareholders' meeting.

"I have already called the police and contacted the person who mailed the VCD. He is also a victim. I agreed to exchange this VCD for one of our Wanhua VCDs and asked him to cooperate with the police.

However, the other party said that the VCD was being sold in the market, and he didn't know the person who sold it to him. Moreover, when the police accompanied him to look for him, they couldn't find him in the market!

At the shareholders' meeting, Zuo Tai gave an overview of the current situation.

Tang Xionghua listened silently, and only after he finished listening did he look at the screws in front of him. The screws were loose and he could see the VCD inside.

“If there’s one of these things, there must be countless more. Calling the police is the right thing to do, but calling the police in Lingnan alone is not enough.

So, let’s notify the Chuzhou police later.

In addition, Mr. Zuo, please hold a press conference to make this matter public, remind the general public to identify counterfeit goods, and warn those who make counterfeit goods.

"I'll do it right away!"

Zuo Tai was absolutely impressed by Tang Xionghua. When he first joined Wanhua, he marveled at the chairman's youth and good luck, but he was not impressed.

But now, as this man strategizes and makes Wanhua more and more successful step by step, and almost makes its foreign competitors suffer from a distance, he is convinced and very convinced!

"Yeah!" Tang Xionghua nodded.

At this time, Jiang Wanmeng also spoke up: "This thing has appeared. This also means that we at Wanhua may have to face new challenges in the future!"

Tang Xionghua had told them long ago that Wanhua could not have a monopoly on VCDs, even though it may have seemed like a monopoly before.

That's just because they captured the market quickly and were pioneers.

But in places like China where intellectual property rights are weak.

Interests will always blind people.

Piracy is bound to occur.

However, no one expected that the first time they came into contact with piracy was not by finding out which piracy company was established in the market, but in this way.

Of course, this is understandable. Something like this that is pieced together without regard to quality cannot be a company, but at most a black workshop run by a team.

They took advantage of the fact that there were many smuggled parts and small illegal factories in Guangzhou and Dongguan.

Use imported parts and some domestic parts, as well as some small parts made by yourself, to piece them together, and finally put on an imitation shell. Naturally, the speed is much faster than the real pirated company which pays attention to quality.

Of course, this will not cause much harm to the real Wanhua.

They are destined to be able to only find some people to cheat others in the market, and they have no way to actually go public.

“I estimate that by the second half of this year at the latest, there may be a real pirate company going public!

At this time, Tang Xionghua knocked on the table and said this.

"There's still time in the second half of the year, and we should be able to launch the third generation by then!"

A technical shareholder of Jiang Wanmeng's team said this!

Tang Xionghua nodded: "Yes!

But even if we upgrade to the third generation, once the other party really establishes a company and has a complete production line, it won’t take too long for them to reverse engineer and replicate our products.”

"Then hold them accountable. Following your instructions, Director Tang, I hired two more lawyers at the beginning of this year. I have specifically instructed them to study our domestic intellectual property laws. If this situation really arises, we will go after them!"

"Yeah!" Tang Xionghua nodded.

Then he added, "Two lawyers may not be enough. Go hire a few more."

There is no other good solution for this situation in the future.

Wanhua is unable to prevent the emergence of pirated companies.

This thing doesn't have a very high technical threshold.

You can replicate it with a little money.

At the same time, due to the indifference of domestic intellectual property laws and the general environment, it may be difficult to truly exercise intellectual property rights.

But no matter how difficult it is, you have to show an attitude.

Moreover, Wanhua is no longer a small enterprise.

He is the boss of Tang Xionghua, the richest man in China. To be frank, Wanhua is also capital, a large multinational capital.

The domestic situation will also consider whether this will affect Wanhua’s international business and Wanhua’s internal sentiment, so even if it is difficult to protect rights at that time, it does not mean that there is no hope.

Time passes again.

On the 16th, the brand of Tang's Automobile Research Laboratory was successfully registered.

On the same day, Tang Xionghua issued another recruitment announcement.

Just like the previous two times, it once again caused a craze in the country because the conditions offered by Tang Xionghua were the same as the previous two times, very high.

At the same time, Wanhua also held another press conference on the same day and broke a shocking news.

Wanhua will become a real estate development company.

However, this company will not develop real estate externally. Instead, it will buy a piece of land from Chuzhou and build a Wanhua employee community in Chuzhou.

All Wanhua employees pay different discounts on rent according to their years of service.

After renting for ten years, the house can be transferred rent-free.

For a time, Wan Hua and Tang Xionghua were once again pushed to the forefront.

Especially at Wanhua, it has become a consensus that Tang Xionghua is willing to invest money to recruit people.

But Wanhua’s housing distribution is the first time for a private enterprise!

In fact, although the welfare housing distribution system still exists in state-owned enterprises these days, there are calls to cancel it. At the same time, state-owned enterprises in many places are now unable to distribute housing.

Because the current state-owned enterprises don’t even have the energy to raise funds to build houses.

Large numbers of state-owned enterprises are burdened with huge debts and are barely surviving with financial subsidies.

In fact, many factories have introduced so-called unpaid leave, unemployment within the factory, long vacation, and no job search, etc.

This has existed since the early 1990s, just like when Tang Xionghua took Tang Yichen to sell fish and shrimp in Chuzhou, Li Huihui was in the same situation.

Now, with the increase in private enterprises, this situation has become more and more common.

In this environment, some private enterprises have set a historical precedent by starting to build and distribute housing to their employees.

This is making history.
