Company establishment

Siemens AG buildingOn October 1st, 1847,Werner von Siemens(WernervonSiemens) in its invention used Pointers to indicate alphabetical order insteadMorse codeThe company was founded on the basis of telegraph technology. The company was subsequently known as Telegraphen-BauanstaltvonSiemens&Halske.

In 1848, the company built a long-distance telegraph line in Europe, spanning 500 kilometers from Berlin to Frankfurt.

In 1850, the founder's brother, CarlWilhelmSiemens, set up a representative office in London.

In the 1850s, the company participated in the construction of the long-distance telegraph network in Russia.

In 1855, another brother of the founder, CarlHeinrichvonSiemens, established a new branch in St. Petersburg.

The company continued to grow and branched out into electric trains and light bulbs. In 1890, the founder retired, leaving the company to his brother Carl Heinrich and his two sons ArnoldvonSiemens and George Wilhelm Siemens. In 1897, Siemens and Halske jointly established the company S&H.

In 1919, S&H and two other companies formed the OsramLightbulbCompany.

In 1923, the Japanese branch was established.

During World War II

In the 1920s and 1930s, S&H began producing radios, televisions, and electron microscopes. Before World War II, S&H was involved in Germany's secret war preparations.

Between 1937 and 1938 (the Nanjing Massacre of Nanjing by Japanese troops), Rabe, the manager of the Nanjing office of German Siemens Company, in his special capacity as the Vice minister of the Nanjing Branch of the German National Socialist Workers' Party (Nazi Party), established the Nanjing War Security Zone in Nanjing, China, and served as the chairman of the Security Zone committee, protecting about 250,000 Chinese civilians. He is known as the "living Bodhisattva" and the "Schindler of China".

Post-war development

In the 1950s, S&H began producing computers, semiconductor devices, washing machines, and pacemakers.

In 1966, SiemensAG (SiemensAG) was founded.

In 1967, Siemens AG and Robert Bosch GMBH established BSH, a joint venture for the production of white goods, which later became the market leader in home appliances in Germany and Western Europe.

In 1980, one of the company's digital telephone switches went offline.

1988 Siemens and General Electric acquired Plessey, a British defense and technology company. As the owners of Plessey split, Siemens took over its avionics, radar and traffic control division and renamed it SiemensPlessey.

nineties

In 1990, the acquisition of troubled many rich computer company was renamed the Siemens Nixdorf () the rich information system co., LTD (SiemensNixdorfInformationsSystemAG). The company has become profitable under the leadership of GerharSchumeyer. In 1997, Siemens introduced a color screen GSM portable phone. Also in 1997, Siemens reached an agreement with BritishAerospace and DASA to supply them with defence equipment produced by Siemens Splessey. British Aerospace and DASA are responsible for the procurement of British and German military equipment respectively.

In 1999, Siemens' semiconductor business was spun off into a new company, Infineon Technologies. In the same year, Siemens Liddow Information Systems became part of Fujitsu Siemens Computers.

In 2004, Siemens Mobile launched 65 series mobile phones to the market. Good user interface, humanized operation and practical functional design made 65 series mobile phones widely popular, but due to software problems, Siemens mobile phones had to be recruited back, and the acquisition was foreshadowed a year later.

In 2005, Taiwan's BenQ bought Siemens' financially troubled mobile-phone company and gave it five years of exclusive rights to use the Siemens trademark under the full name BenQ-Siemens. Before the transfer of the mobile phone company to BenQ, Siemens invested 250 million euros and wrote off assets worth 100 million euros. Siemens also received a 5 percent stake in BenQ worth about 50 million euros.

On October 30, 2006, Siemens announced the establishment of Siemens China Research Institute in Beijing.

Siemens is embroiled in a huge bribery case, well over 426 million euros, leading to the resignation of the current chief executive, KlausKleinfeld.

Enter China

1872: Siemens began business with China in 1872, 25 years after its founding. One of Siemens' orders in China was to supply China with pointer telegraph machines, which marked the beginning of China's modern telecommunications industry.

1879: Siemens receives an order for "lighting equipment" from the Chinese government. Siemens provided a 10 HP steam generator for the lighting of the port of Shanghai, which greatly improved the working efficiency of the port. Werner von Siemens wrote to his brother Karl on November 3, 1879, that he was very confident that China would soon order lighting equipment from Siemens.

1899: The steam train connecting Beijing and Tianjin was not allowed to pass through the capital for fear of causing fire. So Siemens built one of China's trams in Beijing. The tram line connects Majiapu outside Beijing with Hard Gate inside. In the same year, Siemens built one of China's first power plants in Beijing to provide electricity for urban lighting and tram tracks.

1904: The rapid expansion of Siemens' business in China led to the establishment of a permanent home office in Shanghai, an important milestone for Siemens' business in China.

1910 - Siemens creates Siemens China Electrical Engineering Company, headquartered in Berlin with a branch in Shanghai. Over the next four years, Siemens expanded its operations to Beijing, Guangzhou, Wuhan, Harbin, Hong Kong, Qingdao and Tianjin. In 1914, the company changed its name to Siemens China (Shanghai). Siemens' business in China, especially in the power sector, grew rapidly in the early 20th century. Siemens has expanded its Shijingshan power plant near Beijing.

1921: Siemens begins electrification of Zhongxing Coal Mine Company in Zaozhuang, Shandong Province, which is known as one of China's most modern mining projects.

1937: Established the International Security Zone during the Japanese invasion of China and carried out the Nanjing Massacre, and served as the chairman of the Security Zone Committee, protecting about 250,000 Chinese.

1972 - The Federal Republic of Germany and the People's Republic of China establish diplomatic relations. This historic event paves the way for the restoration of the traditional friendship between Siemens and China and lays the foundation for the development and prosperity of future cooperation. In 1972, a hospital room monitoring system made by Siemens was given to China as a gift.

In December 1978, Siemens held the "Electrical and Electronic Technology Expo" in Shanghai. Peter von Siemens, then chairman of the Supervisory Board of Siemens and great-grandson of company founder Werner von Siemens, personally traveled to Shanghai to cut the ribbon with the city's leaders for the expo. More than 39,000 technical experts and guests from the industrial field visited the Expo with great enthusiasm.

1984: Siemens builds a high voltage direct current transmission line for China. The transmission line could carry 1,200 megawatts of power from the Gezhouba Hydropower Station, then China's largest hydropower station in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, to Shanghai, thousands of miles away. The completion of the project in 1989 marked Siemens' significant contribution to the transmission of HVDC power in China, as well as demonstrating Siemens' expertise in installing high-tech equipment and the reliability of its products.

The year 1985 marked a milestone in Siemens' cooperation with China. On October 29, 1985, the two sides signed the Memorandum of Understanding between Siemens and the People's Republic of China on Cooperation in the fields of machinery industry, Electrical Engineering and electronics Industry in Beijing. Siemens is the first foreign company to be invited to cooperate so deeply with China.

In 1987, Siemens began to explore the establishment of joint ventures with China. On October 31, 1988, Siemens reached an agreement to establish a home manufacturing enterprise in China to manufacture Digital Public Telephone Switching Systems (EWSD). Subsequently, Beijing International Switching System Co., LTD. (BISC) was established in November 1990 to meet the growing demand for public telephone systems in China.

In 1988, Siemens decided to establish a joint venture for the production of computed tomography (CT) systems. This agreement led to the establishment in 1992 of Siemens Medical Devices GMBH, Siemens' home CT production site outside Germany.

In 1995, Siemens (China) Co., Ltd. established its first three regional offices in China in Wuhan, Fuzhou and Guangzhou. Siemens established 13 operating companies in China in the same year.

In 1996, Siemens introduced to the Chinese market a domestically produced Siemens mobile phone S4.

In October 1997, Siemens celebrated 125 years of partnership with China. During the celebration, the Siemens School of Management was established to provide employees with advanced management training, business and skills seminars, vocational and business education training.

In 1998, China was hit by the worst floods in a century. Siemens and its employees donated more than 4.5 million RMB to the affected people to help them rebuild their homes.

In August 2001, Siemens successfully produced a SOMATOM CT machine, the world's compact and cost-effective CT machine, which was developed by Chinese researchers in cooperation with Siemens Medical Systems Group R&D centers in Germany and the United States. This advanced CT machine manufactured in China is aimed at both domestic and foreign markets.

In October 2006, Siemens China Research Institute was officially established in Beijing. The Institute and the Siemens Research Institute USA become two large and important research bases for Siemens outside Germany.

In 2007, the Bureau of Shanghai World Expo Coordination and Siemens signed an agreement in Shanghai, and Siemens officially became the "Innovative infrastructure and Healthcare global Partner of Expo 2010 Shanghai China". This is a multinational company that has become a global partner of the Shanghai World Expo.

Siemens Center (Beijing) was officially opened on September 23, 2008. Siemens Center Beijing is located in the Wangjing area of northeast Beijing and consists of a 17,500 square meter headquarters building and two five-story annex buildings. With a height of 123 meters and a total investment of 100 million euros, the 30-storey building is one of Siemens' largest investments in real estate worldwide.

In 2013, a Siemens spokesman said that as part of the company's 6 billion euro (about $8.1 billion) cost-cutting plan, the company would cut 15,000 jobs in the coming year, of which Germany accounted for a third.

On September 25, 2014, Siemens AG announced the sale of its 50% stake in the joint venture Bosch Siemens Home Appliances Group (BSH Home Appliances) to the Bosch Group for 3 billion euros, which is expected to be completed in the first half of 2015. At that time, Siemens completely withdrew from the field of home appliances, so as to focus on industrial, energy, medical and other core businesses.

After Siemens sells its 50% stake in BSH Home Appliances, Siemens-branded home appliances, including those in the Chinese market, will not be affected, and the production, sales and after-sales service of products will still be responsible for BSH, and the Siemens brand will be retained for a long time. BSH's four manufacturing sites in China, with more than 10,000 employees, will also maintain the status quo. [1]
