Right now, the mainland's new crown pneumonia epidemic situation continues to improve, and localities are in an orderly manner to resume work and resume production. Taiwanese businessmen and Taiwanese enterprises have deeply cultivated the mainland, and their confidence has not diminished. They are actively changing their business strategies, transitioning to production and transformation, and seizing new development opportunities.
Strengthening the production of medical protective materials
Can an ordinary eyeglass production line be transformed into medical goggles?
The answer is yes. Laiming Industry Co., Ltd. is an old Taiwanese-funded enterprise in Fujian. It has been cultivating in Xiamen for more than 30 years. The epidemic situation of new crown pneumonia is fierce, and the company's chairman Wu Jinzhong has been wondering what can be done for epidemic prevention.
On February 12, the third day of the factory's resumption of work, the company actively applied for medical supplies production qualification. The original anti-blue light glasses production line was transformed into a goggles production line, and now it is the busiest area in the factory. "Now we can produce 5,000 pairs of goggles every day, and we will gradually expand the production capacity in the future. Firstly, it will be provided to major hospitals, and secondly, it can also meet the needs of epidemic prevention staff and ordinary people." Wu Jinzhong said.
Can a pharmaceutical production plant be transformed into a mask production plant?
The answer is also yes. 34-year-old Taiwanese youth Chen Hongjie founded Guangzhou Yunchen Medical Equipment Co., Ltd. 6 years ago. He stayed in Guangzhou this Spring Festival, and he saw a shortage of medical protective masks. "Otherwise, make my medicine production line switch to masks?"
This idea was strongly supported by the Taiwan Affairs Office of Guangzhou Municipality. Production qualification, plant, equipment, raw materials, product inspection, approval and certification, etc., can be done in more than 10 days. "Now the mask factory implements a three-shift system and operates at full capacity 24 hours a day. There are more than 100,000 masks per day, and priority is given to resuming production and resuming production. It will also try to meet the needs of Taiwanese enterprises, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macao Youth Innovation Center, and Taiwan Youth Service Center. Say.
Can a clothing manufacturer transform into protective clothing?
The answer is also yes. Zhangzhou Jinbaoda Clothing Co., Ltd. is a Taiwan-funded enterprise located in Yunxiao County, Zhangzhou, Fujian. With the assistance of the local government, the company has obtained a loan from a bank and invested in the production of protective clothing. The person in charge of the company was very pleased: "Now my company can produce protective clothing, isn't that the resurgence of epidemic prevention?
Wu Jiaying, president of the Xiamen Taiwan Businessmen Association, said that in response to the epidemic, Taiwanese enterprises are already in action. Some manufacturing and Taiwanese companies have transformed their production of medical supplies, buffered the impact of the epidemic, and contributed to epidemic prevention.
Vigorously develop online operations
Taiwanese confectionery brand Yuanzu Foods, which entered the mainland in 1993, reported a "unexpected rise" in the catering retail industry in the first quarter of this year. "In the first quarter of this year, the Xiamen region's online performance was 1.5 times that of last year, and even on February 14th, the performance was soared by a factor of 10." Zhang Weigang, head of Xiamen's region, said.
What's the secret?
"When the epidemic broke out, it was the Spring Festival holiday, and many stores were closed, and we did not close for 365 days a year. Without everyone opening the door, many orders were transferred to us." Zhang Weigang revealed the mystery.
Yuanzu Foods experienced SARS in 2003, when the company formulated a set of emergency treatment measures in response to the epidemic situation. Unexpectedly, after the outbreak of new crown pneumonia, emergency measures came in handy. On January 23, Yuanzu Food's stores started a series of protective measures such as employee self-checks, takeaway personnel protection, and no-one contact on the last mile.
Even more powerful is online sales. Yuanzu Foods has been operating an online sales system for more than 10 years, and has cumulatively joined more than 10 online e-commerce and takeaway sales platforms. During the epidemic, efforts were made online to effectively hedge the loss of offline business.
According to Wu Jiaying's understanding, during the epidemic period, many Taiwan-funded enterprises turned their attention to online sales, such as Jianlin and TPV, all of which turned faster and maintained their performance.
Online education also unexpectedly ushered in development opportunities. The Taiwanese businessman Wang Yamei is in charge of a BJ English teaching and training institution. The epidemic has shifted all daily work from offline to online. "It's not leisure at home, but more busy than it was."
For more than a month, she and her teaching team have been lying on the Internet platform, holding meetings, setting tasks, and communicating in real time, giving students live video lectures online in four sessions each day. "Offline courses have been cancelled due to the epidemic, but the quality of teaching cannot be compromised."
Wang Yamei sees this as an opportunity to promote online transformation. From her home office, she is exploring how to provide course services and management teams conveniently and efficiently. "Technology is getting more and more advanced now, which gives me the confidence to overcome difficulties."
Committed to the development of new products and technologies
Enterprises want to resume work, and employees are trapped in their hometowns and cannot rework, which is a problem faced by many enterprises. Jiangsu, Guangdong and other places have issued policies to support Taiwan-funded enterprises to increase the level of intelligence and automation in production and operation, ease labor pressure, and improve production and operation efficiency.
During the outbreak, Shenzhen Taiwan-funded company Beide Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. boldly invested in 2 automatic production lines. As an electronic information company, in the face of the epidemic, Belide Electronics still maintains confidence. "We invested 16 million yuan in February and introduced 2 production lines from abroad to improve production efficiency. Now the resumption rate has reached 85%, and production is gradually returning to normal." The company official said that the epidemic impact also contained a turnaround, and the company was just right Transform and upgrade, increase investment in technological transformation in artificial intelligence and production automation.
Wu Jinzhong believes that now is the time to test the resilience of enterprises. The mainland market has great potential, and it is difficult to cope with the immediate difficulties. The enterprise will have a broader development space in the future. In addition, the mainland has also issued a lot of support policies for the resumption of work of Taiwanese enterprises, which will also solve the urgent needs of some enterprises.
Also gaining more attention due to the new crown pneumonia epidemic is the big health industry. Seeing more people attach great importance to health and well-being, Tianfu Tea has smelled opportunities from it. The founder Li Ruihe, who is over 85 years old, introduced that their new product Tianfu noble tea, white tea health flavoring tea, has been successfully developed, and Pu'er health tea is also being developed. White tea health seasoning tea uses raw leaf white tea, Luo Han Guo, fetal chrysanthemum, and wolfberry as the main raw materials. The box says "normal prevention, love for heroes", Li Ruihe said, "I want to donate these new products to the front line Heroes, donated to medical workers fighting in Wuhan! "
