Foxconn "lost"!Guo Taiming dreamed that the "reversal" was so sudden
The reason why Foxconn was able to build a factory in Chinese mainland to expand production, become the world's largest electronic foundry company, and obtain a large number of orders for Apple mobile phones, is mainly due to the population size of China's manufacturing market and preferential policies such as taxation and land. But Terry Gou obviously didn't know the latter, but directly attributed all orders to Apple's financiers, so when Cook decided to transfer production capacity to Southeast Asia, Foxconn also acted as soon as possible and directly spent billions of dollars to build a factory in India!
But"Hood events"As a result, the first two years of Foxconn's construction in India were almost stagnant, and finally ended in failure, with billions of dollars lost!However, Gou did not give up, and in order to continue to show the direction to Apple, he announced a major decision at the end of last year to transfer $300 billion worth of factory capacity from the mainland to India in the next three years, and will also increase the number of employees in the Indian factory to 70,000!
Netizens also blamed Foxconn"Ungrateful"、"Eat people without spitting out bones, smash pots and sell iron"、"White-eyed wolf", but Guo Taiming did not take this to heart, but publicly said that Foxconn built a factory in the mainland, so that we have no worries about food and clothing!I have to say that the reason why Terry Gou is keen to build a factory in India to expand production is because Foxconn is also a plate"Big chess", if you are not careful, you will be difficult to ride a tiger. But at that time, Terry Gou did not dream of building a factory in India, and he was not so fast"Stir-fry"Results!
Building a factory in India did not bring in more orders from Apple.
As we all know, the reason why Foxconn is doing everything possible to build a factory in India is that it takes a fancy to India's huge population and young labor force, and secondly, it wants to get more orders from Apple, but what Guo Taiming didn't expect is that they did not hesitate to transfer the factory capacity to the mainland, and as a result, they did not get Cook this year"Yes"！According to the order size of the iPhone 15 series, Cook ceded 27% of the shares to Luxshare and Asus, so to speak, Foxconn has now been acquired by Apple"Marginalization"Finish.
Cook made such a decision mainly because he didn't want to put it all"Eggs"All in one basket!
India** does not support Foxconn to become"Foundry"。
In addition, in recent years, India has vigorously introduced foreign-funded enterprises and spent $10 billion in subsidies to invite semiconductor companies to build factories in India to promote the development of the local semiconductor industry. However, India** is not interested in Foxconn's semiconductor foundry, so even the semiconductor projects of Foxconn and Tata Group have been canceled by India**, which cannot be approved, and Foxconn can only withdraw its investment and announce the failure of the semiconductor factory construction plan!
Tata Group, India"Take a bite back.
What's even more worrying is that after Foxconn withdrew its capital, it turned around and acquired Wistron Information Communication's Indian Tata Group, which officially entered the electronic foundry market, and rapidly expanded its influence in the field of electronic foundry'Deadlift', that is, with a salary 20% higher than the market!Foxconn hires managers in large numbers and even launches"Digital manufacturing"Diploma of the company, trying to improve the overall quality of the staff!Of course, the Tata Group is fully attacking the OEM field and is willing to enter Apple"Fruit chain", also a response to Foxconn!
As the saying goes, in order to get more semiconductor subsidies from Apple and India, Foxconn did not hesitate to transfer production capacity to mainland factories, and even made a series of wrong decisions, and finally got into trouble, on the one hand, it could not get Apple and India"Hospitality"On the other hand, it has also lost BYD's reputation and image in the mainland market some time ago!Word-of-mouth and image, now BYD, Luxshare Precision and Asus and other foundries have increased their weight, Foxconn's market share will not be very large in the future, I hope that Terry Gou can return in time, and do not counterattack the mainland market!
