The Pearl River Delta: The Three Quarter Is The Most Important Business.

In the context of the weak economic recovery in Europe and the United States and the downward pressure on China's economy, this year, the PRD region, which is well-developed in manufacturing, has frequently heard the news of bankruptcies, stoppage or semi stoppage and relocation of enterprises. According to the situation learned from Shenzhen, Dongguan and Foshan, due to the current international and domestic situation Weak demand A large number of small and medium-sized enterprises are facing the shortage of order, plus the pressure of rising labor costs and poor financing channels. Many small and medium-sized enterprises are forced to stop work or half stop work, and some small factories with low compression capacity have to close down.

Factory owner: wolf is coming.

According to reports, Duke, who has been working in Dongguan for many years, is now the manager of Dongguan Xingmao rubber and Plastic Technology Co. Ltd. He said, because before the company basically can not work, so job hopping. And there are many factories like this that have nothing to do in Dongguan.

"This year many small and medium enterprises in Dongguan are in a very bad position. Many factories have nothing to do, mostly in stoppage or semi shutdown." Du Qian said: " Shoe material industry As an example, since June, many factories have left their employees ahead of time because of insufficient orders, so as to save manpower costs.

A head of a Guarantee Corporation in Shenzhen said that in 2008, because of the global financial crisis, all sectors of society were highly concerned. Everyone was yelling at the wolf. In fact, it was thunder and heavy rain. The Pearl River Delta region was also affected mainly by export-oriented enterprises, such as toy factories. clothing Factories and so on. "We have been to many factories and enterprises in Shenzhen, and it is found that a very obvious phenomenon is that under construction, the 10 production lines of a factory usually can only open 3 or 4." He said.

The person in charge of Shenzhen Xin Bang Industrial Co., Ltd. said that the wolf is really here now. "At present, the unit price of mobile phone shell has dropped by 31% compared with 2008, and it has increased the cost of labor. Basically, the profit has been lost. Even at the factory full load, the profit is only 10%. Moreover, most factories are unable to get enough orders." The official said that because of the poor foreign trade situation, the company began to increase the share of the internal market last year, but even so, the production capacity is only 60% to 70%.

Old problems and new difficulties

The difficulty of financing is a problem that SMEs have not been solved in real terms for a long time. The head of the Guarantee Corporation in Shenzhen believes that the financing of SMEs is an indisputable fact, and the other side of the fact is that the production and operation of SMEs is directly linked to the real estate market. "Because property is a main channel of financing for small and medium-sized enterprises, when housing prices go up, enterprises will get a steady stream of capital through property and land to finance, so that the operation of enterprises is at least superficial. Enterprises will have more money to invest in production and operation. Under the influence of real estate regulation policies, housing prices will no longer rise. Enterprises will narrow their channels through the financing of real estate, and many enterprises will be faced with insufficient funds, and the operating conditions will naturally be affected."

Now the new situation is that the real estate regulation policy can not be abolished, otherwise the house price will rise again and will lay a "land mine" for economic development.

In the interview, the owners of small and medium-sized enterprises have said that the loan is good for property, otherwise, for these small businesses, it is very difficult to get financial support from the formal channels. According to the insiders of a bank in Shenzhen, the willingness of banks and Guarantee Corporation to lend to small and medium enterprises is decreasing. Because the domestic and international economic situation is not good, the confidence of banks and Guarantee Corporation to SMEs is not strong before, and the risk is gradually increasing.

Xie Chi, Secretary General of Shunde SME Promotion Association, said that the difficulties faced by SMEs in 2008 were only "gust of wind". Now, however, they are faced with various kinds of comprehensive pressures. They are not only insufficient orders and financing difficulties, but also fluctuating raw material prices, rapid increase in labor costs, large mobility of workers, and occasional shortage of labor. All this adds new pressure to the production and operation of enterprises. "The enterprises that were relatively standardized and technical in their own management had strong ability to withstand pressure, and had the ability to spanform and upgrade, so that their competitiveness would not be eliminated, and the enterprises with a relatively thin foundation would be more difficult to operate at present."

The three quarter is the key.

The owner of a hardware factory in Shenzhen said last year that he felt the market situation was bad and began to cross - trade and reduce business risks. "I used to be the chassis cabinet in the communications industry, but now I am also doing the teller machine, ATM, inquiry machine in the financial industry, as well as the expressway sign system in the spanportation industry. So despite the sharp shrinkage of orders in the communications industry, the business has not been hit too hard. He said that the most important thing at present is to overcome the difficulties ahead, but will consider making his own brand later.

Sun Li, Secretary General of Shenzhen SME Promotion Association, believes that the key to the company's current difficulties lies in its spanformation and upgrading. Entering the three quarter, the operation of SMEs in Shenzhen has improved compared with the two quarter, mainly related to the spanformation of enterprises themselves. Many processing enterprises in the past only processed for others, and their profits were very low. Now in the process of spanformation, they are involved in R & D and design, and some enterprises turn processing to brand. Therefore, profits have been raised and the new dilemma has been relatively calm.

"I think the three quarter is the key to the development of small and medium-sized enterprises, and also the key to the various policies of the government. After this round of policies, it helped some small and medium-sized enterprises. In fact, SMEs have always been difficult, if the policy can be fully in place, enterprises will recover better. She said.
