Since the financial crisis, Kunshan has issued seven preferential policies including “Several Views on Enhancing Enterprise Development†and “Some Thoughts on Promoting Enterprises to be Big and Strong†to help domestic and foreign-funded enterprises accelerate their transformation and upgrading. With the promotion of policies, a group of old enterprises that have been rooting in Kunshan for more than 10 years or even more than 20 years have cleverly borrowed “Dongfeng†to continuously reap new joy in transformation and upgrading!
The old trees opened new flowers, and a group of old companies became “small giants†companies. Not only did they gain greater room for development in the financial crisis, they also became a sample of the transformation and upgrading of Kunshan enterprises and became the best illustration of the investment environment in Kunshan. .
Separation of service industry two-thirds production of interactive regional headquarters
In the first half of this year, Huaqiao International Business City continued to have a strong headquarters economy, three head offices with a headquarters of more than RMB 1 billion including the headquarters of NSK, and two more than 500 million yuan in the headquarters of Hussein Business, and 77 new sales companies... The development of the business city headquarters economy has benefited greatly from Kunshan's strong base of production operations.
NSK, a world top 500 company, was established in 1916 and is the first manufacturer in Japan to design and manufacture bearings. In 1995, NSK set up a factory in Kunshan Development Zone, and it is important to produce ball bearings for motors. Due to the need of production, in December 2003, NSK set up a technical part in the Kunshan factory. It is important to carry out support and evaluation work on ball bearings.
With the continuous development of the Chinese market, NSK expects to do a better job in product basic research and technical support in the future to meet China's unique market needs. As a result, NSK has separated the Chinese Skills Department and set up an independent legal person R&D company, and has become the first benchmarking company to enter the Huaqiao Business City headquarters campus. In an interview with reporters, NSK’s General Manager Dian Wei expressed that NSK has formed a corporate headquarters integrating R&D, sales and capital operations, and will build a world-class R&D center with 300 senior talents. The output in 2011 was 5 billion yuan, and in 2012 it was 7 billion yuan.
Like NSK, in the 1990s, the “old generation†companies such as the Giants and Jianye Group, which settled in Kunshan, also have headquarters offices in China such as the headquarters to “build a nest†business city. Separating the service sector of manufacturing enterprises and setting up sales companies and regional headquarters has become another important path for the transformation and upgrading of old enterprises in Kunshan.
In-depth interpretation: In recent years, Kunshan has fully grasped the trend of “service-oriented†manufacturing operations, and actively encouraged manufacturing enterprises to separate the R&D, raw material procurement, and design of the upstream of the industrial chain, and downstream brand management, sales, and logistics. It has lengthened the rough industrial chain and retained the profits from the production cycle. At present, a number of service companies have been separated from the manufacturing enterprises, and a number of service functions have been extended on the basis of industrial enterprises. The interactive development of secondary and tertiary industries has not only promoted the transformation and upgrading of old enterprises, but also brought service industry development to Kunshan. Advantageous opportunity.
