Guangdong science and technology minister exposed exposure LED industry government subsidies chaos

How close is the relationship between a local official and an industry? You may not be able to imagine.

According to the Guangdong Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection news, Li Xinghua, director of the Guangdong provincial science and technology department for alleged serious violation, the organization is undergoing investigation. This news came out, the entire LED industry are hot in the matter, insiders pointed out that the latter is estimated to have a greater earthquake, involving more extensive. Some people even believe that the province of Guangdong LED public lighting program will be affected.

"First Financial Daily" yesterday interviewed a number of LED industry are of the view that the government of Guangdong to actively promote the development of LED industry contributed, but the LED industry does exist subsidies opaque corporate xiaojiannaodai with subsidies and other chaos.

Xiaojiannaodai take project

In two days ago broke checked news, Li Xinghua also led the team to participate in the Guangdong "hotline" live broadcast, and the Guangdong provincial wind PCED group face to face.

In the program, the issue of science and technology policy subsidies and research funding issues become a focus. Program shows a short video display, general manager of a technology company said that due to policy support, LED market is indeed a rapid growth. But he believes that this growth is not healthy. He said that many LED companies in order to compete for a special grant funds, the energy to take the project above, almost gave up the development of science and technology, which has almost become a common phenomenon in the industry.

In recent years, Guangdong actively introduced policies to support the development of LED industry, in the 12th Five-Year period, the Guangdong provincial government invested 450 million yuan annually to set up a special fund for the development of LED industry. According to May 2012 release of "Guangdong province to promote the use of LED lighting products plan", Guangdong province LED industry scale in 12th Five-Year will reach the end of 500 billion yuan, which proposed that Guangdong will take the lead in public lighting field road, public places, government agencies, state-owned enterprises or state-owned financial capital investment in the construction of lighting engineering the field, the comprehensive application of LED lighting products.

These policies will undoubtedly play a positive role in promoting the development of LED industry. But for the policy of favor, LED companies have resorted to and many of them go exhaust all the skills, "crooked ways".

A LED industry veteran told reporters that some companies really obsessed with subsidies, after all, can get not many enterprises. Guangdong has more than 6000 LED companies, only about 2% ~ 3% can get subsidies, many of them for the boss of the company, state-owned enterprises.

Why subsidies to large companies? The LED industry veteran said, from the government point of view, he hopes the strong stronger, from the industry itself, the subsidy is not exist for a long time, the government subsidy is not necessarily a good thing for the industry itself, sometimes will affect the market to play its normal detoxification function.

There are many such examples around him. Some enterprise project has done poorly, but the relationship with the government, will get government subsidies can boast tens of millions, but in fact this enterprise technology has been out of the market, there is no way to spread in the industry.

In order to get the project, do a good job with the government, there will inevitably be some corruption and backdoor phenomenon. The industry veteran said that some government officials are not professional, a good technology can not see, a lot of time to look at the company's public relations skills.

Dongguan, a Taiwanese LED lighting company official told this newspaper revealed that this industry is indeed widespread chaos. Some companies get some of these policy subsidies from some special sources of news, even faster than experienced practitioners.

A lot of time the government will not notice a special preferential policies, such as we have been doing on the Alibaba, but until this year to know the original government in this piece is a subsidy. "

The official said, some companies can get subsidies and even some empty shells, but to provide some professional and reliable documents, you can get the money. In fact, the real focus on doing business in this industry may not be very understanding of these subsidies.

And because the company felt that the domestic market is very complex, until this year to open up the domestic market. Even if the domestic market, they do not want to do government projects, because these projects will be very tricky, there will certainly be some unspoken rules, we do not want to deal directly with the government. "

Influence or limited

Is it true that some people in the industry say, Li Xinghua sacked will cause LED industry earthquake?

The LED industry veteran said, will certainly have an impact, but the impact may not be so great. Because the office of science and technology is only the implementation of the Department, the real decision to dominate the industry is the province's higher leadership.

"Because of this matter, enterprises, local science and Technology Bureau may have some wait-and-see, will affect the progress of some projects, but will not stop. Provincial policy has not changed, the new office will continue to implement the science and Technology Department officials. He said.

The person in charge of a Zhuhai LED enterprises also dished out micro-blog view, that the investigation by the Li Xinghua LED to do street enterprises most affected, because the two Guangdong vigorously promote energy-saving lamps and lighting in public places, vigorously promote energy management contract (EMC), once let Guangdong LED enterprise fame good.

The LED industry veteran said that China's LED industry has been the lack of research and development power, which is the whole
