The transaction was completed at the end of December last year.
It is understood thatThe Huizhou Sony factory mainly produces mobile phones, digital cameras, digital camcorders, optical cartridges, flat-panel displays and new electronic components.
Among them, its optical cartridge production once accounted for 45% of the global market, making it the world's largest optical cartridge production base.
Looking back on its history, the factory was established in 1996 and was Sony's first wholly-owned enterprise in South China. At its peak of development, about half of the world's DVD players were produced in this factory, with more than 30,000 employees.
It is reported that,When Sony withdrew from Huizhou, it provided a "N+3" compensation package for Chinese employees. Many old employees received severance packages of more than 200,000 yuan. Many employees were reluctant to leave the company.
Previously, another Japanese brand, Zhongshan Canon, also attracted attention on the Internet for its generous employee compensation package when it withdrew. The compensation is not simply "N+1", but adopts the calculation method of "2.5N+1", and is superimposed with a number of special consolation payments.
