SMEs have experienced difficulties in their development

In the year of the customs, the Chinese always put together the Chinese New Year and customs. Because the end of the year is the day of reckoning, the New Year passes through. This point, the former Yang Bai Lao felt the deepest. Nowadays, small and medium-sized enterprises in Dongguan, Guangdong Province have also begun to feel bad about the end of the year.

The reporter recently found out at the grassroots level that ** difficult, *** appreciation, and rising prices, like the three large mountains of Dongguan SMEs out of breath. Without its own brand, Dongguan's export processing companies lacking core competitiveness have reached a bottleneck for survival.

The traditional “foreign trade factory” is facing Lao Lu’s interview with development difficulties. He said that there is no time for the factory and that the work of the factory is very few.

Lao Lu: Certainly it is a loss. I now have more than 100 people in the factory, almost 200 people. At least I have lost almost 500,000 this year.

Reporter: The whole profit will be gone?

Lao Lu: Nothing, but also a loss, where there is profit, if you do not lose it is funny.

This is Humen Town, Dongguan City, Dongguan and even the largest clothing wholesale city in Guangdong. The producer behind it is Lao Lu's factory. Lao Lu said that his factory is not too small, with annual sales of almost 10 million ***, mainly women's "outsiders", products exported to Europe and the United States market, but in the past two years, not only the workers difficult to move, the pressure has also come The bigger.

Lao Lu: You can be counted, last year was six six or six five, and now the US dollar is six six, six three.

Reporter: This is multiplied by 10 million in output value, 10 million in millions?

Lao Lu: Yes, even if you count, you can't earn 300,000. Also, last year's pork, the food for workers to eat, last year, nine pounds of pork, it is now at least 13 years ago, a bag of 100 pounds of rice 170,180, is now 200,210, add another 30 pieces here A bag of money is the cost, and the boss is simply overwhelmed.

Lao Lu entered the line in 1994. He said that his apprentice had more than 100 newly opened factories. Lin Bo’s children’s clothing factory was one of them. Today, the two have more sitting and drinking together because of the downturn in the company. Tea opportunities.

Lin Boss: This is basically the case in the past two years. Prices have risen, and the welfare of workers has been higher year after year. Plus, the products we have made have not sold well.

Lack of self-owned brand SMEs "looking for a way out" if they want to get out of the predicament, the need for money, ** problems, not new terms for SMEs in Dongguan, the obstacles they encounter are often very specific.

Lao Lu: The most direct thing is that we have real estate, but our real estate does not have a state-owned land use permit, which cannot be mortgaged or mortgaged. Originally, mortgages can be mortgaged, but it takes more than 8% or more than 7% for the intermediary companies, guarantee companies, and national banks. The calculation of the guarantee fee is a one-to-one, three-by-one, four, and it cannot be done. The cost is too high. Now.

In Dongguan, the “manufacturing base” has been used as a city business card promotion. Today, there are 129,900 “small and medium-sized enterprises” in this small town in South China, which accounts for 98% of all companies. Chen Hao, deputy director of the SME Bureau, said that these traditional "foreign trade processing factories" are almost all facing problems.

Chen Hao: This part is purely for foreign orders. It does not have its own brand. The scale of the company is not big, and it does not have its own right to speak. This part of the company is more difficult.

The recession is not limited to the apparel industry. The SMEs in Dongguan, the tradition of “processing materials” has continued for many years, and now it has become the most troublesome issue for many business owners.

Chen Hao: The main thing is to do a lot of foreign orders. Its development space is not so big. The outside market has not grown or is even declining. The number of registered companies has increased every year, and they have made fewer orders. Now the cost of raw materials has also gone up. The labor force and various comprehensive expenses have also risen sharply. Its price increase has not been as fast as it has. Production or profits have been compressed so much, and pressure is very high. If it is not transformed and upgraded, it will not be stronger and will soon be eliminated by the market.

After decades of development, Dongguan has become a global light industrial processing base, and has also created the current prosperity and development of Dongguan. But now the days of seeing the world rely on cheap labor alone are gone forever. How many small and medium export processing companies exist in Dongguan should also be considered by all parties.

In Dongguan, electronics, garment processing, furniture, and toys are among the top few in the list of companies. “Finding a way out” is amidst the small and medium-sized enterprises, but also across industries. Chen Silong made pet supplies and started from pulling the nylon rope of the pet dog. His factory still maintains a profit margin of about 30%, but he said that he is already on the decline, not to break through.

Chen Silong: In the past few years, our profits were several times a year. For example, I made a two-million-dollar business in the first year. In the second year, we may have done 8 million. In the third year, we have a thousand. With more than ten million and twenty million, in the fourth year we will become four or fifty million. My current goal is to set a minimum of one quarter. With the increase in our market share, raising our entire turnover is a bottleneck.

The government provides financial support for companies with “development potential”**

He is raising funds for his own company to make his own brand, and at the same time, a new batch of government-funded companies are recruiting on the “Dongguan SME Network” page. What kind of company will the government help? The Deputy Director of the SME Bureau in Dongguan said that technological advancement incentives, listing gradient cultivation projects, SMEs training programs, and corporate R&D** have all been prepared for companies with “potential for development”.

Chen Hao: Our side is a government guide and hopes to develop in this area. After all, the number of companies that can enjoy our technological advancement support is relatively small in terms of the number of companies in Dongguan.

With the Lao Lu garment factory separated by a wall, only five years after the establishment of the water pollution recycling equipment company has just received a government **.

Company leaders: The government, including the local government The support from the municipal government is quite large, including the saying that innovation is a big issue.

Reporter: Innovation**.

Company leader: We have got two consecutive sessions. We have to take part and the government is also part of the investment and gives us no money.

In the Dongguan City SME Development Promotion Association, Deputy Secretary-General He Xiufen also said that high-tech companies, innovative companies, whether **** or other "door", there are not small discounts.

He Xiufen: On the bank side, including the guarantee company and the government, we are inclined to implement these policies that the state advocates and encourages in the catalogue, especially high-tech and new materials.

He Xiufen has worked for many years in the SME Development Promotion Committee. She said that the SMEs that are promoted by her are numerous and numerous. Regardless of whether they are guarantee companies or commercial banks, they value the quality of the company itself.

He Xiufen: I think companies must have products, and the second must have a market, these two we can not help it. It's only you who do it spontaneously. The third is money. If you don't have your own market and products, you say nothing.

Chen Xiao, deputy director of the SME Bureau of Dongguan, explained to the reporter the blueprint for the future of SMEs in Dongguan.

Chen Hao said: The company needs technical progress, how to increase its added value, technological innovation, and innovation. It owns a large number of companies with their own technologies. These companies in China and even in the world have formed a number of large industrial clusters that constitute our entire economy in Dongguan. The pattern, from simple processing, into a brand-name product that has its own market development capabilities and its own research and development capabilities, has a certain weight in the world.

In the face of the municipal government's goal, more than 100,000 Dongguan SMEs, I am afraid will also experience a difficult turn.
