Moving the factory to Sihui, Zhaoqing --- a conversation between two bosses from Guangdong
A: What happened to your factory in Vietnam recently? I saw you rushing to move to Vietnam a few years ago. Is it a big opportunity?
B: No! Vietnam often has power outages, and workers are unwilling to work overtime. I dare not accept orders when I see them, for fear that I cannot deliver the goods to customers. What about you?
A: I am in the Pearl River Delta, and various costs are getting higher and higher, which is not easy. The cost has increased a lot. Recently, I moved a small factory to Sihui. After running it for 9-10 months, I found that the cost here in Sihui is much lower. Orders that were not profitable in the core area of the Pearl River Delta can be profitable when placed in Sihui. There are few factories in Sihui, there is no power outage, and it is easier to find workers. I plan to move the entire large factory to Sihui. I think it is easier to control costs if I move to Sihui.
B: Is there any industrial land in Sihui? What is Sihui's investment policy?
A: There are many industrial lands in Sihui. I don't know the investment policy. I only know that I went there to help with the procedures, and it was done in a few days. Once you get the land certificate, you can start construction. I haven't seen any officials come to make things difficult for me. Although Sihui is backward, the people in Sihui are still quite civilized. Basically, they do things according to the contract. But Sihui is indeed poor, and the wages in Sihui are much lower than those in the Pearl River Delta. I see that many local people don't have money to see a doctor. I set up a factory here to help alleviate poverty.
B: Have you made money in Sihui? Is Sihui so poor?
A: I moved my small factory to Sihui. For the time being, I still make money in Sihui. If I move all the big factories to Sihui, I should make more money. Sihui is indeed poor and has no industry. The local people in Sihui have no jobs to make money. People in Sihui are much poorer than those in the Pearl River Delta.
B: From what you said, you seem to be very optimistic about Sihui.
A: I am optimistic about it. I plan to move all the big factories in the Pearl River Delta to Sihui in half a year. Sihui is across the river to the Pearl River Delta, which is actually very close.
B: If you have time, take me to your factory in Sihui. I want to see what the environment and situation are like.
A: Sure. Do you also want to move your factory from Vietnam to Sihui?
B: I'll go to Sihui first. I see that you are doing so well in Sihui. I can move 1-2 production lines to Sihui. I can try this.
A: Okay, when are you free to come back to Guangdong? I'll take you to Sihui to have a look.
B: Next week. I'll fly back to Guangdong to see you. I'm going to Sihui to have a look.

搬工廠去肇慶四會----兩個廣東老闆的對話
A：你在越南的工廠，最近怎麼了？前幾年見你急急忙忙搬去越南，是不是很大機會？
B：唔得啊！越南成日停電，工人不願意加班。我看見訂單都敢接，怕接了交不了貨比客戶。你呢？
A：我在珠三角這裡，各種成本越來越高，也不太好過。成本高了不少。最近我搬了一個小廠過去四會，運行了9-10個月時間，發現四會這裡成本低很多。原來在珠三角核心區不賺錢的訂單，放去四會做，都可以賺錢。四會工廠少，沒有停電的狀況，工人也比較容易找。我打算把整個大廠，全部搬過去四會算了。我覺得搬過去四會，比較容易控製成本。
B：四會有工業地麼？四會的招商政策怎麼樣？
A：四會很多工業地，招商政策我不知道，我只知道我過去幫手續，幾天就辦好了。拿到土地證就可以開工了。我暫時沒看見有官員上門刁難。四會雖然落後，不過四會的人還挺文明的。基本都按照合約做事。不過四會的確是窮，四會的薪水比珠三角低了許多。我看很多本地人看病都沒有錢。我在這裡辦廠，就當扶貧。
B：你在四會有無賺到錢？四會這麼窮嗎？
A：我把小廠搬過去四會，暫時來看，我在四會還是有賺到錢的。如果我把大廠都搬過去四會，我應該會賺更多。四會的確是窮，沒有什麼工業。他們四會本地人想賺錢都沒崗位。四會人比珠三角的人窮多了。
B：聽你這麼說，你好像很看好四會。
A：我看好他的。我打算過半年後，把珠三角的大廠全部搬過去四會。四會過了河就到了珠三角了，其實非常近。
B：如果你有空，帶我去你四會的工廠看看，我去看看什麼環境，什麼狀況。
A：可以。你也想把你的工廠從越南搬去四會嗎？
B：我去四會看看先，我看見你在四會做得這麼好，我可以搬1-2條生產線去四會，我可以這樣試試啊。
A：好，你什麼時候有空回來廣東？我帶你過去四會看看。
B：下個星期。我飛回來廣東找你。我要去四會看看。
