3W LED bulbs end or drop to 5 yuan

Wu Yulin, chairman of the Foshan Lighting Association, said that in the era of traditional lighting, large companies like to start from scratch. However, the development of LED is too fast and the mode of division of labor in the industrial chain has been completely changed. Only cooperation can maximize the benefits.

Foshan LED companies lack cooperation

In the home appliance industry, this leading company in the United States can support thousands of supporting companies. However, in the field of LED lighting, Foshan companies are almost at war with each other.

"Huizhou friends do not understand, many of their companies are looking for Foshan to do business supporting the company, but Foshan does not have this kind of local cooperation." Wu Yulin said.

The industry commented that Foshan Lighting spent more than 20 years to achieve the current scale of more than 2 billion yuan, but Lei Shi has spent more than 4 billion yuan in just a few years, the key reason is to be good at using the industrial chain to quickly do Big.

“LEDs are developing too fast and the pattern of division of labor in the industrial chain has been completely changed. Only cooperation can maximize benefits,” said Wu Yulin.

The vertical integration strategy is still favored by leading companies. After the listing of National Star Optoelectronics, the vertical integration strategy was clarified, but from the perspective of the performance in the past two years, the integration has not brought advantages to the company.

At the supporting meeting yesterday, several leading companies such as Buddha Lighting, Osram, and National Star Optoelectronics introduced their businesses as keynote speakers. A business person told reporters that the current decline in LED prices is very fierce, it is expected that the end of the 3-watt LED bulb prices will fall to 5 yuan. If you do a lot of work, you may lose a lot.

Wu Yulin said that the cost of purchasing with others is actually much cheaper than doing it by himself. Recently, the Casio lighting that he operated is reinstalling LED lamps for the 7th-45th floor of Baihua Plaza. Originally, he planned to take charge of the project himself. However, after calculation, he found that subcontracting the project would save half the cost.

Application market has potential

"Foshan LED industry is the most complete supporting, especially in the mid-lower reaches of the field, Foshan enterprises are doing the best and strongest." Wu Yulin said.

Recently, Shenzhen revoked the LED industry planning, so that the prospects of the LED industry have been questioned, but Foshan companies are generally optimistic. Wu Yulin believes that Shenzhen LED companies are mainly concentrated in the upper and middle reaches, relying heavily on downstream facilities, and forecasting the speed of development of the industry. However, Foshan LED companies are mainly market-oriented and more flexible. The person in charge of Osram also believes that the revocation of LED planning in Shenzhen is good for Foshan.

It is reported that Foshan Lighting began to do lighting applications last year, there is a situation in short supply. LED applications are also considered as the most promising part of the industry.
