The Pearl River Delta is the first stop for Taiwan-funded enterprises to enter the mainland. After several years of industrial restructuring and the expansion of the market, most Taiwanese companies still remain in the Pearl River Delta.
Will the relocation of Foxconn make Taiwanese businessmen think that the investment environment in the Pearl River Delta will change? Ye Chunrong, chairman of the Taiwan Business Association of Dongguan City, laughed and said, “It will not be so serious. If a Foxconn migration causes psychological pressure on Taiwanese companies, then our The economy is too weak."
Inward migration is mostly labor-intensive
For example, he analyzed that Dongguan Yuyuan Shoes Factory was the first branch factory established by the Taiwanese Baocheng Group, a shoe manufacturing giant, on the mainland. He passed away from Dongguan two years ago. The actual situation is that shoe factories continue to expand northwards. In addition, Delta Electronics, the world's largest manufacturer of switching power supplies and fan products, has also established plants in Jiangxi, Hunan, and Tianjin after entering Dongguan in 1992. Ye Chunrong said that the number of Taiwan companies that have expanded in the north has been a lot in recent years. Most of them have transferred high-energy-consuming and labor-intensive parts to neighboring Ganzhou of Jiangxi Province and Chenzhou of Hunan Province, but the headquarters still remains in Dongguan. Ye Chunrong's company is also expanding in the north and talks about the actual results of the expansion in the north. He said: "At least the impact of employment will not be so great."
Zhao Weinan, secretary-general of the Dongguan Taiwan Business Association, also stated that the basic headquarters of the Taiwanese company that expands in the north are still in Dongguan, unless it is a Taiwanese company that cannot survive, such as the highly polluted plating industry in the Dongguan City government, or the enterprise Other plans.
Taiwanese businessmen love the Pearl River Delta
After the Taiwanese company Beituo expanded its production scale several times, such as Guoshanhui, the global furniture giant, the factory scale in Jiashan, Zhejiang was several times larger than that of Dongguan Taisheng Furniture. Ye Chunrong’s factory in Wuxi is also several times larger and produces high-tech parts. The Zhangzhou branch is a small factory, and the things to do are also simple. They use local surplus labor who are not willing to go out to look after children.
“It's easy for a company to move!†said Zhao Weinan. In addition to the shoe factory, high-tech companies are not that easy. Moreover, Taiwanese businessmen not only like the industrial supporting environment in the Pearl River Delta, but also adapt to the living environment here. At the same time, the service work done by the Dongguan government is also unattainable in other places. For example, a foreign liaison coordination meeting is held every month. In addition to policy issues, local governments can solve it.
A dumbwaiter is a small freight elevator or lift intended to carry objects rather than people. Dumbwaiters found within modern structures, including both commercial, public and private buildings, are often connected between multiple floors. When installed in restaurants, schools, kindergartens, hospitals, retirement homes or in private homes, the lifts generally terminate in a kitchen.
The term seems to have been popularized in the United States in the 1840s, after the model of earlier "dumbwaiters" now known as serving trays and lazy Susans. The mechanical dumbwaiter was invented by George W. Cannon, a New York City inventor. Cannon first filed for the patent of a brake system (US Patent no. 260776) that could be used for a dumbwaiter on January 6, 1883. Cannon later filed for the patent on the mechanical dumbwaiter (US Patent No. 361268) on February 17, 1887.Cannon reportedly generated a vast amount of royalties from the dumbwaiter patents until his death in 1897.
A simple dumbwaiter is a movable frame in a shaft, dropped by a rope on a pulley, guided by rails; most dumbwaiters have a shaft, cart, and capacity smaller than those of passenger elevators, usually 45 to 450 kg (100 to 1000 lbs.) Before electric motors were added in the 1920s, dumbwaiters were controlled manually by ropes on pulleys.
Early 20th-century codes sometimes required fireproof dumbwaiter walls and self-closing fireproof doors and mention features such as buttons to control movement between floors and locks on doors preventing them from opening unless the cart is stopped at that floor. Dumbwaiter Lifts in London were extremely popular in the houses of the rich and privileged. Maids would use them to deliver laundry to the laundry room from different rooms in the house. They negated the need to carry handfuls of dirty washing through the house, saving time and preventing injury.
A legal complaint about a Manhattan restaurant's dumbwaiter in 1915, which also mentions that food orders are shouted up and down the shaft, describes its operation and limitations as follows:
[There is] ... great play between the cart of the dumb-waiter and the guides on which it runs, with the result that the running of the cart is accompanied by a loud noise. The rope which operates the cart of the dumb-waiter runs in a wheel with a very shallow groove, so that the rope is liable to and does at times slip off. ... The cart has no shock absorbers at the top, so that when it strikes the top of the shaft or wheel there is a loud report. ... [T]he ropes of the dumb-waiter strike such wall at frequent intervals with a loud report. ... [T]he dumb-waiter is often negligently operated, by running it faster than necessary, and by letting it go down with a sudden fall.
More recent dumbwaiters can be more sophisticated, using electric motors, automatic control systems, and custom freight containers of other kinds of elevators. Recently constructed book lifts in libraries and mail or other freight transports in office towers may be larger than many dumbwaiters in public restaurants and private homes, supporting loads as heavy as 450 kg (990lbs)
