some companies in the same food and beverage industry or the same pharmaceutical industry, under the same growth rate, start with a PE ratio of 60 times, while others only have 20 times?</p><p>Why can some internet companies offer a 20-fold PS when they are losing money, but only 5 times when they are profitable?</p><p>Why didn't Buffett buy Apple sooner? Why is Hillhouse Capital, which invests in the primary market, now investing in the secondary market?</p><p>The answers to these questions are all related to the stage of industry development. Companies at different stages may have different future changes, development space, and ultimate outcomes. For example, if you are stronger than a child, but the child can grow taller, but you cannot, then the child's valuation should be higher than yours.</p><p>In my article \"5000-Word Depth: How to Quickly Judge a Company's Investment Value in 30 Minutes?\", I stated that industry potential focuses on three key factors: the industry's stage of development, cyclicality, and sustainability. The most important of these is \"the industry's stage of development,\" which I tend to divide into five stages:</p><p><ul><li>The early stages, which seem to have vast potential but are highly uncertain, include hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, third-generation semiconductors, OLEDs, and quantum computers.</p><p></li><li>Rapid development periods following industry consumption booms, the formation of business models, or technological breakthroughs, such as lithium batteries, photovoltaics, artificial intelligence applications, some pharmaceutical industries, and some new consumer industries.</p><p></li><li>Stable growth period: Most industries are in this stage</p><p></li><li>Development stagnation period: most so-called \"sunset industries\" are in this stage</p><p></li><li>Uncertain outlook: Industries that may be replaced or become niche in the future, such as traditional new residential development, traditional supermarkets and department stores, and print media.</p><p></li></ul>This article takes the industry of domestic listed companies as an example to analyze the investment characteristics of these five stages.</p><p><b>The early days when the space seems large but is very uncertain</b></p><p>This type of company should theoretically be in the stage of VC and PE investment and is not within the scope of consideration in the secondary market. However, there are two exceptions: a new business model cultivated within the listed company, or a new application direction suddenly emerging for the listed company's products.</p><p>Taking the community group-buying business developed by Meituan and Pinduoduo as an example, it was already in this \"uncertain\" stage before 2020. The reason it attracted investors' attention was because its industry space and business model were very attractive:</p><p>1. Industry Space: Focusing on low-priced daily necessities, high frequency and high stickiness, facing the most basic needs of the widest range of people, focusing on the lower-tier market, avoiding competition from e-commerce and traditional commercial giants (referring to two years ago), combining \"online + offline\" scenarios, it has multiple characteristics of large space and sustainability of essential needs.</p><p>2. Business model: The \"pre-sale + self-pickup\" model avoids all the high-cost parts of the existing retail system, does not require \"last-mile delivery\", has no inventory, is a simple central warehouse, and integrates into the consumer's social system with the special role of \"group leader\".<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f2bbf64037287d4907ae8d0015a639b4\" tg-width=\"800\" tg-height=\"359\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">High frequency of essential needs, avoiding giants, integrating into social relationships... these are all characteristics of early-stage industries with explosive growth potential.</p><p>Although community group buying now has a relatively mature operating model and profit potential, when community group buying first emerged before 2020, the business reflected the uncertainty of early-stage projects: the uncertainty of social networking, the fragility of online and offline integration, the difficulty of operation and management, the degree of economies of scale... If it weren't for the pandemic at the beginning of last year, the period of uncertainty in community group buying might have been even longer.</p><p>When industries or products at similar stages emerge in the secondary market, they often exhibit characteristics of thematic investment and concept hype, such as two recent themes:</p><p>Murder mystery games: Situational social interaction under the guise of games weakens competitiveness and has the potential to become a new form of entertainment product with a longer lifecycle.</p><p>metaverse: An immersive virtual space where users can engage in a variety of cultural, social, and entertainment activities, integrating technologies or business models such as blockchain, games, network computing power, and VR.</p><p>These types of companies are essentially investments in the VC field, and it's unlikely that one in ten will succeed. General investors should avoid getting involved.</p><p>In 2017, Rongtai Health chose to increase its investment in the \"shared massage chair\" business in the massage chair industry. With this concept, its revenue growth and valuation were higher than those of the larger Ogawa. However, a year later, the \"sharing economy\" receded. Although shared massage chairs became one of the few products that could generate positive cash flow, the profit margin was taken away by the market because the industry barriers were too low. The company had to consider divesting this business.</p><p><b>Industry boom period</b></p><p>At this stage, due to the validation of demand, technology, or business models, the successful implementation of products, and the availability of funds, the entire market is in a period of explosive growth, attracting players from all walks of life.</p><p>For example, among the industries that have recently entered a period of explosive growth: community group buying is a validated business model, medical aesthetics and new energy vehicles are experiencing explosive downstream demand, and lithium batteries and photovoltaics have both achieved technological breakthroughs, reducing costs to economic benefits.</p><p>The boom in the manufacturing sector is somewhat uneven and often very sudden, making it difficult for individual investors to grasp it. A better direction is to choose new consumption sectors whose boom period is not as intense but which last longer, such as frozen baked goods.</p><p>Bread chain stores are not a good business model. I explained the reason in my article \"A bad business model is an 'accident-prone area' in investment\": \"The bread making process takes a long time, uses a lot of ingredients, and has many varieties. It is difficult for the headquarters to control the quality of the auxiliary ingredients of franchisees.\"<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c163f94533343da45c172b0937adaf77\" tg-width=\"771\" tg-height=\"623\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>When the downstream sector is weak and scattered, there is hope for a strong upstream B2B manufacturing company to emerge. Frozen baking manufacturers, represented by Ligao Foods, have begun to provide downstream bakeries with frozen finished and semi-finished products in recent years. In particular, the latter products can be made into baked goods that have the exact same taste as freshly made bread through simple proofing and baking. The process is faster, the quality is more controllable, the taste is more uniform, and the cost is lower.</p><p>In industries experiencing explosive growth, the biggest investment problem is out-of-control valuations, such as medical aesthetics.</p><p>In industries experiencing explosive growth, it is difficult to estimate the height of their ceiling and the duration of high growth, but the certainty is no less than that of mature industries, resulting in great valuation elasticity, and stock prices are often determined by the most optimistic investors.</p><p>Once the valuation of industry leaders gets out of control, the profit-making effect can easily trigger thematic investment and trend speculation funds, which take turns speculating on companies with mediocre fundamentals in the sector. Investors must distinguish between leading stocks with strong performance but overvalued stocks and stocks that are following the trend of speculation.</p><p>It should be noted that the boundaries between different stages of an industry are not absolute, and industries that enter a period of explosive growth do not simply emerge victorious.</p><p>Community group buying demonstrated strong commercialization capabilities last year, with its business potential appearing to be far greater than that of traditional fresh food e-commerce. However, the sudden policy changes at the end of the year may push community group buying back to its first stage, or limit its scale to a niche market—of course, it may simply make the industry more standardized, in short, increasing uncertainty.</p><p><b>Stable growth period</b></p><p>Although the first two stages are the cradle of \"tenfold stocks,\" ordinary investors may not be able to grasp them. The vast majority of A-share listed companies are in a stage of \"stable growth,\" and Buffett's moat theory basically belongs to companies in this stage.</p><p>In the short term, the explosive performance of companies in this stage is not as strong as in the previous two stages, but in the long run, the returns from investing in this stage are not low. The A-share market is currently more similar to the golden age of Buffett's investments.</p><p>The reason is that China has a huge population, complex urban layers, and a unified culture, while consumer culture has a conductivity from high to low levels. Many products are popular in first-tier cities for a few years, second- and third-tier cities for a few years, and then spread to fourth-tier cities, resulting in a longer growth period than in other markets. The migration of population from lower-tier cities to higher-tier cities, and from rural areas to cities, coupled with the global competitiveness of Chinese manufacturing, makes this process more complex and lengthy, resulting in most mature industries experiencing a growth period of at least ten years.</p><p>Therefore, venture capital companies like Hillhouse Capital, which originally focused on the primary market, have also devoted their main energy to the secondary market in recent years, and a considerable number of them are companies in the mature stage.</p><p>Taking large appliances as an example, this is one of the earliest industries in China to have global competitiveness. 25 years ago, the growth stocks were Changhong and Konka, 15 years ago it was Gree, 5 years ago it was Midea and Robam, and now it is the turn of companies like Haier that are positioned in the mid-to-high-end and have the ability to expand overseas.</p><p>This has led many investors to regard the home appliance industry as a mature sector with significant room for penetration. Leading air conditioner manufacturers with a well-competitive landscape may still see growth of over 7% over the next ten years.</p><p>Looking at the product categories, from black appliances, which were the first to achieve breakthroughs, to white goods, which were the second to establish advantages, and then to kitchen appliances, which rose with the real estate market, from these economies of scale to small home appliances that rely on industrial chain efficiency and functional innovation, and smart home appliances that have joined the wave of intelligentization.</p><p>The coexistence of product category extension and regional differences has created market depth and breadth. Leading companies that have established themselves in mature categories are more likely to emerge from the second growth curve. Robam is focusing on dishwashers, Haier is cultivating high-end brands, Midea is expanding into small home appliances, and TCL is entering the upstream panel industry.</p><p>Mature industries rely on product category expansion for growth. Therefore, for companies entering this stage, investors need to shift their perspective from industry space and product competitiveness to entrepreneurship, management, and organizational culture. Only companies that address their management radius can have the ability to continuously expand. Of course, this is not an industry-level issue; we'll discuss it later when analyzing management capabilities.</p><p><b>Low growth period</b></p><p>In the past, our definition of sunset industries was more influenced by Western economic circles, equating them with traditional primary manufacturing industries such as textiles, steel, mining, chemical machinery, etc. The actual reason is that primary manufacturing industries in Europe and the United States have lost their competitiveness due to high costs in the process of globalization and have been transferred to Asia. The so-called \"sunset\" does not refer to a decline or disappearance of demand in the industry, but rather to companies outsourcing manufacturing to supply chains, leading to the relocation of these industries to other countries.</p><p>Moreover, every industrial relocation in globalization primarily affects these traditional primary manufacturing industries, which gives investors the profound impact of sunset industries.</p><p>In fact, when it comes to traditional and primary industries, agriculture is more like a sunset industry. However, no country will allow this type of industry to globalize. In addition, the United States has a cost advantage, so it is not \"sunset\". This is a typical definition from a Western perspective.</p><p>Therefore, investment opportunities in these primary manufacturing industries are not \"sunset.\" I believe that China is likely to become the \"final destination\" for the relocation of traditional primary manufacturing industries, and these \"sunset industries\" will become \"industries where the sun never sets\" in China, for the following three reasons:</p><p>First, it is impossible to find a region with a greater comparative advantage.</p><p>Traditional primary manufacturing has evolved from Europe and America to Japan, then to the \"Four Asian Tigers,\" and finally to China, each time because the latter has a \"comparative advantage.\" Comparative advantages include not only labor costs, but also infrastructure, domestic market size, unified market, government governance capabilities, and so on. However, looking at the world, almost no region can fully accept the transfer of China's traditional manufacturing industry.</p><p>Second, optimization of the competitive landscape and management capabilities of traditional primary manufacturing industries.</p><p>In unprofitable industries, as long as the competitive landscape is optimized to a certain extent, industrial clearing and the emergence of oligopolies can slow down the trend of industrial chain transfer. This is because giants have the profits to integrate the industrial chain to reduce costs, the capital to acquire foreign companies, and the technology to set up factories abroad to globalize their production capacity.</p><p>The case of Buffett's huge losses from his investment in Berkshire Hathaway in the 1970s gives people the impression that the American textile industry failed in globalization. However, investors who have made a fortune by buying Shenzhou International in recent years are enjoying the benefits of China's textile and apparel processing industry shifting its production capacity to Vietnam and India.</p><p>The transfer of production capacity has a different impact on enterprises. Back then, European and American textile and apparel companies could not go global, but today, although China's textile and apparel industry has transferred production capacity, the enterprises are still the same. Those who go global are the enterprises that bring back profits. The reason is precisely the \"manufacturing gene\" in the blood of Chinese enterprises mentioned in the previous article, which can adapt to different cultural environments.</p><p>Third, the transformation of traditional primary manufacturing by new technologies</p><p>In previous manufacturing relocations, whether production was in the United States, Japan, or South Korea, apart from more advanced machinery and equipment and some product upgrades, the manufacturing methods did not fundamentally change.</p><p>However, after the manufacturing industry moved to China, it coincided with the Internet boom entering the B2B manufacturing sector. Whether it was the \"mouse + cement\" ten years ago or the \"Internet plus\" five years ago, the production methods of the manufacturing industry have undergone fundamental changes.</p><p>Taking Guolian Co., Ltd. as an example, it solves the problem of low-cost procurement for small and medium-sized enterprises. It aggregates many downstream enterprises and uses the \"centralized procurement\" model to negotiate prices with upstream suppliers, so that small and medium-sized enterprises can also gain the procurement cost advantage of large enterprises.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a54db6ef986216d7d0ffb068c2eba690\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"513\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>This model requires internet platforms to have accumulated a large number of professional customers and to be able to provide highly vertical and highly segmented products, while also providing low-cost logistics and warehousing services. This requires the technological accumulation of digital and cloud-based services, which has certain barriers to entry.</p><p>From logistics to procurement to production, the Industrial Internet's transformation of traditional manufacturing is likely to enable these traditional industries to no longer rely excessively on low costs and environmental costs, and to remain in China forever, or to keep their profits in China.</p><p>If we only look at the industry's growth rate, liquor is a standard \"sunset industry\". For this type of industry that is not growing, the advantage lies in the strong certainty of leading companies due to the competitive landscape. Fortunately, financing demand has decreased, profit growth is higher than revenue growth, and shareholder returns are greater than scale growth, making it an opportunity that ordinary investors can easily seize.</p><p><b>Uncertain outlook</b></p><p>Traditional primary manufacturing is not \"sunset\" at all. The real \"sunset industry\" is often due to the emergence of new technologies, new products and new business models, entering industries with declining demand, such as traditional cameras, ordinary watches, ordinary generic drugs, previous generation electronic products, etc.</p><p>It is easy to judge industries where demand has already declined, but it is difficult to judge industries where future demand is unclear, such as new home development in the real estate industry.</p><p>This is not to say that real estate is a sunset industry; it is certainly a sustainable industry. However, my country's current new home development model faces the problem of unclear future demand. my country has the fifth largest per capita housing area in the world and is facing population decline. The proportion of second-hand homes will continue to rise in the future. Coupled with the issue of 70-year property rights, it is difficult to predict the future development model of new homes.</p><p>When investing, never gamble on your luck in an industry where the demand is unclear. Back then, Changhong underestimated the speed of LCD TV substitution and stockpiled a large number of color tubes, hoping to expand its market share by monopolizing upstream materials through price wars. As a result, it accelerated the substitution of LCD TVs and fell into a financial crisis.</p><p><b>Industry development is like flying chess</b></p><p>Below is Kim Kardashian's birthday gift to her son—a Sany Heavy Industry mini excavator. This isn't a celebrity joke; mini excavators were a new internet sensation on the consumption lists of middle-class American families last year, after big houses, big swimming pools, and big lawns—without an excavator at home, you wouldn't know what to talk about with your neighbors.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/acf6163cc8f6105ee5b459116d6225a1\" tg-width=\"358\" tg-height=\"428\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Excavators were once considered a sunset industry, with demand believed to shrink as infrastructure projects decreased. In fact, not only in the United States, but also in Japan, mini excavators have become omnipotent \"magic tools\" due to population aging.</p><p>Although this article lists five stages, in the real world, industry development is like \"flying chess\". You have to roll a \"6\" at the beginning to really start. Along the way, you mainly move forward.

Why is Hillhouse Capital, which invests in the primary market, now investing in the secondary market?</p><p>The answers to these questions are all related to the stage of industry development. Companies at different stages may have different future changes, development space, and ultimate outcomes. For example, if you are stronger than a child, but the child can grow taller, but you cannot, then the child's valuation should be higher than yours.</p><p>In my article \"5000-Word Depth: How to Quickly Judge a Company's Investment Value in 30 Minutes?\", I stated that industry potential focuses on three key factors: the industry's stage of development, cyclicality, and sustainability. The most important of these is \"the industry's stage of development,\" which I tend to divide into five stages:</p><p><ul><li>The early stages, which seem to have vast potential but are highly uncertain, include hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, third-generation semiconductors, OLEDs, and quantum computers.</p><p></li><li>Rapid development periods following industry consumption booms, the formation of business models, or technological breakthroughs, such as lithium batteries, photovoltaics, artificial intelligence applications, some pharmaceutical industries, and some new consumer industries.</p><p></li><li>Stable growth period: Most industries are in this stage</p><p></li><li>Development stagnation period: most so-called \"sunset industries\" are in this stage</p><p></li><li>Uncertain outlook: Industries that may be replaced or become niche in the future, such as traditional new residential development, traditional supermarkets and department stores, and print media.</p><p></li></ul>This article takes the industry of domestic listed companies as an example to analyze the investment characteristics of these five stages.</p><p><b>The early days when the space seems large but is very uncertain</b></p><p>This type of company should theoretically be in the stage of VC and PE investment and is not within the scope of consideration in the secondary market. However, there are two exceptions: a new business model cultivated within the listed company, or a new application direction suddenly emerging for the listed company's products.</p><p>Taking the community group-buying business developed by Meituan and Pinduoduo as an example, it was already in this \"uncertain\" stage before 2020. The reason it attracted investors' attention was because its industry space and business model were very attractive:</p><p>1. Industry Space: Focusing on low-priced daily necessities, high frequency and high stickiness, facing the most basic needs of the widest range of people, focusing on the lower-tier market, avoiding competition from e-commerce and traditional commercial giants (referring to two years ago), combining \"online + offline\" scenarios, it has multiple characteristics of large space and sustainability of essential needs.</p><p>2. Business model: The \"pre-sale + self-pickup\" model avoids all the high-cost parts of the existing retail system, does not require \"last-mile delivery\", has no inventory, is a simple central warehouse, and integrates into the consumer's social system with the special role of \"group leader\".<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f2bbf64037287d4907ae8d0015a639b4\" tg-width=\"800\" tg-height=\"359\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">High frequency of essential needs, avoiding giants, integrating into social relationships... these are all characteristics of early-stage industries with explosive growth potential.</p><p>Although community group buying now has a relatively mature operating model and profit potential, when community group buying first emerged before 2020, the business reflected the uncertainty of early-stage projects: the uncertainty of social networking, the fragility of online and offline integration, the difficulty of operation and management, the degree of economies of scale... If it weren't for the pandemic at the beginning of last year, the period of uncertainty in community group buying might have been even longer.</p><p>When industries or products at similar stages emerge in the secondary market, they often exhibit characteristics of thematic investment and concept hype, such as two recent themes:</p><p>Murder mystery games: Situational social interaction under the guise of games weakens competitiveness and has the potential to become a new form of entertainment product with a longer lifecycle.</p><p>metaverse: An immersive virtual space where users can engage in a variety of cultural, social, and entertainment activities, integrating technologies or business models such as blockchain, games, network computing power, and VR.</p><p>These types of companies are essentially investments in the VC field, and it's unlikely that one in ten will succeed. General investors should avoid getting involved.</p><p>In 2017, Rongtai Health chose to increase its investment in the \"shared massage chair\" business in the massage chair industry. With this concept, its revenue growth and valuation were higher than those of the larger Ogawa. However, a year later, the \"sharing economy\" receded. Although shared massage chairs became one of the few products that could generate positive cash flow, the profit margin was taken away by the market because the industry barriers were too low. The company had to consider divesting this business.</p><p><b>Industry boom period</b></p><p>At this stage, due to the validation of demand, technology, or business models, the successful implementation of products, and the availability of funds, the entire market is in a period of explosive growth, attracting players from all walks of life.</p><p>For example, among the industries that have recently entered a period of explosive growth: community group buying is a validated business model, medical aesthetics and new energy vehicles are experiencing explosive downstream demand, and lithium batteries and photovoltaics have both achieved technological breakthroughs, reducing costs to economic benefits.</p><p>The boom in the manufacturing sector is somewhat uneven and often very sudden, making it difficult for individual investors to grasp it. A better direction is to choose new consumption sectors whose boom period is not as intense but which last longer, such as frozen baked goods.</p><p>Bread chain stores are not a good business model. I explained the reason in my article \"A bad business model is an 'accident-prone area' in investment\": \"The bread making process takes a long time, uses a lot of ingredients, and has many varieties. It is difficult for the headquarters to control the quality of the auxiliary ingredients of franchisees.\"<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c163f94533343da45c172b0937adaf77\" tg-width=\"771\" tg-height=\"623\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>When the downstream sector is weak and scattered, there is hope for a strong upstream B2B manufacturing company to emerge. Frozen baking manufacturers, represented by Ligao Foods, have begun to provide downstream bakeries with frozen finished and semi-finished products in recent years. In particular, the latter products can be made into baked goods that have the exact same taste as freshly made bread through simple proofing and baking. The process is faster, the quality is more controllable, the taste is more uniform, and the cost is lower.</p><p>In industries experiencing explosive growth, the biggest investment problem is out-of-control valuations, such as medical aesthetics.</p><p>In industries experiencing explosive growth, it is difficult to estimate the height of their ceiling and the duration of high growth, but the certainty is no less than that of mature industries, resulting in great valuation elasticity, and stock prices are often determined by the most optimistic investors.</p><p>Once the valuation of industry leaders gets out of control, the profit-making effect can easily trigger thematic investment and trend speculation funds, which take turns speculating on companies with mediocre fundamentals in the sector. Investors must distinguish between leading stocks with strong performance but overvalued stocks and stocks that are following the trend of speculation.</p><p>It should be noted that the boundaries between different stages of an industry are not absolute, and industries that enter a period of explosive growth do not simply emerge victorious.</p><p>Community group buying demonstrated strong commercialization capabilities last year, with its business potential appearing to be far greater than that of traditional fresh food e-commerce. However, the sudden policy changes at the end of the year may push community group buying back to its first stage, or limit its scale to a niche market—of course, it may simply make the industry more standardized, in short, increasing uncertainty.</p><p><b>Stable growth period</b></p><p>Although the first two stages are the cradle of \"tenfold stocks,\" ordinary investors may not be able to grasp them. The vast majority of A-share listed companies are in a stage of \"stable growth,\" and Buffett's moat theory basically belongs to companies in this stage.</p><p>In the short term, the explosive performance of companies in this stage is not as strong as in the previous two stages, but in the long run, the returns from investing in this stage are not low. The A-share market is currently more similar to the golden age of Buffett's investments.</p><p>The reason is that China has a huge population, complex urban layers, and a unified culture, while consumer culture has a conductivity from high to low levels. Many products are popular in first-tier cities for a few years, second- and third-tier cities for a few years, and then spread to fourth-tier cities, resulting in a longer growth period than in other markets. The migration of population from lower-tier cities to higher-tier cities, and from rural areas to cities, coupled with the global competitiveness of Chinese manufacturing, makes this process more complex and lengthy, resulting in most mature industries experiencing a growth period of at least ten years.</p><p>Therefore, venture capital companies like Hillhouse Capital, which originally focused on the primary market, have also devoted their main energy to the secondary market in recent years, and a considerable number of them are companies in the mature stage.</p><p>Taking large appliances as an example, this is one of the earliest industries in China to have global competitiveness. 25 years ago, the growth stocks were Changhong and Konka, 15 years ago it was Gree, 5 years ago it was Midea and Robam, and now it is the turn of companies like Haier that are positioned in the mid-to-high-end and have the ability to expand overseas.</p><p>This has led many investors to regard the home appliance industry as a mature sector with significant room for penetration. Leading air conditioner manufacturers with a well-competitive landscape may still see growth of over 7% over the next ten years.</p><p>Looking at the product categories, from black appliances, which were the first to achieve breakthroughs, to white goods, which were the second to establish advantages, and then to kitchen appliances, which rose with the real estate market, from these economies of scale to small home appliances that rely on industrial chain efficiency and functional innovation, and smart home appliances that have joined the wave of intelligentization.</p><p>The coexistence of product category extension and regional differences has created market depth and breadth. Leading companies that have established themselves in mature categories are more likely to emerge from the second growth curve. Robam is focusing on dishwashers, Haier is cultivating high-end brands, Midea is expanding into small home appliances, and TCL is entering the upstream panel industry.</p><p>Mature industries rely on product category expansion for growth. Therefore, for companies entering this stage, investors need to shift their perspective from industry space and product competitiveness to entrepreneurship, management, and organizational culture. Only companies that address their management radius can have the ability to continuously expand. Of course, this is not an industry-level issue; we'll discuss it later when analyzing management capabilities.</p><p><b>Low growth period</b></p><p>In the past, our definition of sunset industries was more influenced by Western economic circles, equating them with traditional primary manufacturing industries such as textiles, steel, mining, chemical machinery, etc. The actual reason is that primary manufacturing industries in Europe and the United States have lost their competitiveness due to high costs in the process of globalization and have been transferred to Asia. The so-called \"sunset\" does not refer to a decline or disappearance of demand in the industry, but rather to companies outsourcing manufacturing to supply chains, leading to the relocation of these industries to other countries.</p><p>Moreover, every industrial relocation in globalization primarily affects these traditional primary manufacturing industries, which gives investors the profound impact of sunset industries.</p><p>In fact, when it comes to traditional and primary industries, agriculture is more like a sunset industry. However, no country will allow this type of industry to globalize. In addition, the United States has a cost advantage, so it is not \"sunset\". This is a typical definition from a Western perspective.</p><p>Therefore, investment opportunities in these primary manufacturing industries are not \"sunset.\" I believe that China is likely to become the \"final destination\" for the relocation of traditional primary manufacturing industries, and these \"sunset industries\" will become \"industries where the sun never sets\" in China, for the following three reasons:</p><p>First, it is impossible to find a region with a greater comparative advantage.</p><p>Traditional primary manufacturing has evolved from Europe and America to Japan, then to the \"Four Asian Tigers,\" and finally to China, each time because the latter has a \"comparative advantage.\" Comparative advantages include not only labor costs, but also infrastructure, domestic market size, unified market, government governance capabilities, and so on. However, looking at the world, almost no region can fully accept the transfer of China's traditional manufacturing industry.</p><p>Second, optimization of the competitive landscape and management capabilities of traditional primary manufacturing industries.</p><p>In unprofitable industries, as long as the competitive landscape is optimized to a certain extent, industrial clearing and the emergence of oligopolies can slow down the trend of industrial chain transfer. This is because giants have the profits to integrate the industrial chain to reduce costs, the capital to acquire foreign companies, and the technology to set up factories abroad to globalize their production capacity.</p><p>The case of Buffett's huge losses from his investment in Berkshire Hathaway in the 1970s gives people the impression that the American textile industry failed in globalization. However, investors who have made a fortune by buying Shenzhou International in recent years are enjoying the benefits of China's textile and apparel processing industry shifting its production capacity to Vietnam and India.</p><p>The transfer of production capacity has a different impact on enterprises. Back then, European and American textile and apparel companies could not go global, but today, although China's textile and apparel industry has transferred production capacity, the enterprises are still the same. Those who go global are the enterprises that bring back profits. The reason is precisely the \"manufacturing gene\" in the blood of Chinese enterprises mentioned in the previous article, which can adapt to different cultural environments.</p><p>Third, the transformation of traditional primary manufacturing by new technologies</p><p>In previous manufacturing relocations, whether production was in the United States, Japan, or South Korea, apart from more advanced machinery and equipment and some product upgrades, the manufacturing methods did not fundamentally change.</p><p>However, after the manufacturing industry moved to China, it coincided with the Internet boom entering the B2B manufacturing sector. Whether it was the \"mouse + cement\" ten years ago or the \"Internet plus\" five years ago, the production methods of the manufacturing industry have undergone fundamental changes.</p><p>Taking Guolian Co., Ltd. as an example, it solves the problem of low-cost procurement for small and medium-sized enterprises. It aggregates many downstream enterprises and uses the \"centralized procurement\" model to negotiate prices with upstream suppliers, so that small and medium-sized enterprises can also gain the procurement cost advantage of large enterprises.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a54db6ef986216d7d0ffb068c2eba690\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"513\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>This model requires internet platforms to have accumulated a large number of professional customers and to be able to provide highly vertical and highly segmented products, while also providing low-cost logistics and warehousing services. This requires the technological accumulation of digital and cloud-based services, which has certain barriers to entry.</p><p>From logistics to procurement to production, the Industrial Internet's transformation of traditional manufacturing is likely to enable these traditional industries to no longer rely excessively on low costs and environmental costs, and to remain in China forever, or to keep their profits in China.</p><p>If we only look at the industry's growth rate, liquor is a standard \"sunset industry\". For this type of industry that is not growing, the advantage lies in the strong certainty of leading companies due to the competitive landscape. Fortunately, financing demand has decreased, profit growth is higher than revenue growth, and shareholder returns are greater than scale growth, making it an opportunity that ordinary investors can easily seize.</p><p><b>Uncertain outlook</b></p><p>Traditional primary manufacturing is not \"sunset\" at all. The real \"sunset industry\" is often due to the emergence of new technologies, new products and new business models, entering industries with declining demand, such as traditional cameras, ordinary watches, ordinary generic drugs, previous generation electronic products, etc.</p><p>It is easy to judge industries where demand has already declined, but it is difficult to judge industries where future demand is unclear, such as new home development in the real estate industry.</p><p>This is not to say that real estate is a sunset industry; it is certainly a sustainable industry. However, my country's current new home development model faces the problem of unclear future demand. my country has the fifth largest per capita housing area in the world and is facing population decline. The proportion of second-hand homes will continue to rise in the future. Coupled with the issue of 70-year property rights, it is difficult to predict the future development model of new homes.</p><p>When investing, never gamble on your luck in an industry where the demand is unclear. Back then, Changhong underestimated the speed of LCD TV substitution and stockpiled a large number of color tubes, hoping to expand its market share by monopolizing upstream materials through price wars. As a result, it accelerated the substitution of LCD TVs and fell into a financial crisis.</p><p><b>Industry development is like flying chess</b></p><p>Below is Kim Kardashian's birthday gift to her son—a Sany Heavy Industry mini excavator. This isn't a celebrity joke; mini excavators were a new internet sensation on the consumption lists of middle-class American families last year, after big houses, big swimming pools, and big lawns—without an excavator at home, you wouldn't know what to talk about with your neighbors.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/acf6163cc8f6105ee5b459116d6225a1\" tg-width=\"358\" tg-height=\"428\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Excavators were once considered a sunset industry, with demand believed to shrink as infrastructure projects decreased. In fact, not only in the United States, but also in Japan, mini excavators have become omnipotent \"magic tools\" due to population aging.</p><p>Although this article lists five stages, in the real world, industry development is like \"flying chess\". You have to roll a \"6\" at the beginning to really start. Along the way, you mainly move forward. Occasionally you can \"fly continuously\", but you often encounter the extreme punishment of \"taking a few steps back\", even being \"stopped once\" for a foul, or even being \"sent back to base camp\".</p><p>The biggest problem still comes from competitors, especially when everyone is crowded together at the same stage, where they can easily be eliminated. Leading at the start doesn't necessarily mean you can carry that lead to the end, but in the second half, after widening the gap significantly, as long as you don't make a fatal mistake, you are very likely to carry that lead to the end.</p><p>However, no matter how much you lead your opponent near the end, as long as your opponent has the ability to overturn the table and start a new game, all your advantages will disappear on a new battlefield.

美国中产家庭的消费清单上,在大House,大泳池,大草坪之后的新晋网红——家里没有挖掘机,你都不知道出门跟邻居聊啥。挖掘机一度被认为是夕阳行业,认为需求会随着基建工程的减少而萎缩,事实上,不光是美国,在日本,微型挖掘机也因为人口老龄化而变成无所不能的“神器”。本文虽然列了五个阶段,但现实世界里,行业发展就像“飞行棋”,一开始投出“6”才能真正出发,一路上以前进为主,偶尔能“连续飞行”,但也常常遇到“后退几步”,甚至因犯规被“停止一次”,甚至被“打回大本营”的极刑。最大困扰还是来自竞争对手,特别是大家拥挤在同一个阶段时,一不小心就会被干掉。一开局领先,不一定能把领先优势进行到底,但到了后半程,拉开相当的差距后,只要自己不犯致命错误,很可能会将领先优势带到终局。然而,不管你多么领先对手接近终局,只要对手有能力掀翻桌子,重开一局,在一个新的战场上,你所有的优势都将荡然无存,这也是商业竞争的游戏中最残酷、最刺激、不断吸引新玩家入场的一点。","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"000001.SH":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":4866,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":197223682,"gmtCreate":1621469977146,"gmtModify":1704358030409,"author":{"id":"3581052926190229","authorId":"3581052926190229","name":"李金淼","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/af8a7a940bf810831f3ff666afc8f2dd","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3581052926190229","idStr":"3581052926190229"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"?","listText":"?","text":"?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/197223682","repostId":"1126565046","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":5546,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":100299705,"gmtCreate":1619615240407,"gmtModify":1704726814395,"author":{"id":"3581052926190229","authorId":"3581052926190229","name":"李金淼","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/af8a7a940bf810831f3ff666afc8f2dd","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3581052926190229","idStr":"3581052926190229"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"I
