I Want To Be a Rich Man on Hong Kong Island
Chapter 602: [Meet for the third time! 】
Chapter 602 [Meet for the third time! 】
October 26, Tokyo, Japan.
There was a patter of light rain under the sky, Wu Guangyao stood at the gate of the Lenovo Group headquarters factory, together with many senior executives such as Akio Morita and Jing Shenda.
In addition to the management and staff of Lenovo Group, there are also many police officers who are vigilant around;
Obviously, Lenovo Group is coming to an important guest.
"coming!"
Wu Guangyao looked outside, and it turned out to be a convoy of Japanese police cars clearing the way.
"This month, we have met two sides!"
"It's my honor! Shall we visit the workshop first?"
"Okay, I am deeply moved when I visited Matsushita Electric; I am also looking forward to the Lenovo Group's workshop!"
"Don’t worry, Lenovo Group only takes first place, not second place!"
"Very good! Young is the capital!"
When I came to Lenovo’s color TV production workshop, the old man visited the production workshop very slowly. He observed the production process very carefully, and asked the explanation staff from time to time.
"Mr. Matsushita said that their color TVs have sold 50 million units, so how many color TVs have been sold by Lenovo?"
With a confident smile on Wu Guangyao’s face, he said: “80 million sets are now! Moreover, among Panasonic’s 50 million color TV sets, 20 million color TV picture tubes are produced by our company and are currently the most advanced in the world. Lilong's technology."
After listening, the old man said frankly: “In the future, we are going to modernize, and on the basis of self-reliance, we are ready to absorb overseas technology and funds; Mr. Wu, can you help China with its modernization drive?”
Sincere, frank and determined, Wu Guangyao is very moved!
Wu Guangyao said in the Sichuan dialect used in his previous life: "For the development of the motherland, I am willing to devote everything I have to help!"
After visiting the workshop, I came to a conference room. Wu Guangyao hoped to get an inscription, and the old man readily agreed.
Inscription for Nissan Motor Company during his stay in Japan: "Learn from and pay tribute to the great, hard-working, brave, and wise Japanese people";
Inscription for Junjin Iron and Steel Plant: "The road of Sino-Japanese friendship and cooperation will become wider and wider. Let's work together!"
Inscription for Matsushita Electric Industrial Company: "China-Japan friendship, a bright future."
I saw the old man slowly write down: "Pioneer and role model for Sino-Japanese cooperation!"
Wu Guangyao is content to let people keep it safe!
Lenovo Group. In Wu Guangyao's office, Akio Morita and Dae Shen were sitting on the sofa.
"President, how should we cooperate with the mainland?" Akio Morita asked tentatively.
Akio Morita has Xiao Jiujiu in his heart, worried that Wu Guangyao will do a lot of things regardless of the cost;
For example, donate Lenovo Group’s Trinitron technology and production equipment for free;
For example, donate chip technology and equipment for free;
The consequences of doing so will not only make Lenovo Group lose its competitiveness, but also let Lenovo Group touch the ‘Batumi Agreement’, which may affect the US market in the future.
Although Wu Guangyao has no such thoughts, Morita Akio’s attitude still makes Wu Guangyao a little unhappy;
Therefore, Wu Guangyao taught: "When your Japanese Junjin Iron and Steel Plant was asked to transfer technology and impart management experience, although it was very worried that it would have an additional opponent, it still agreed to this request; you, Matsushita Electric, are being asked for hope. When participating in China’s modernization drive, Mr. Matsushita agreed in one fell swoop; Lenovo, in essence, Chinese capital is the major shareholder, and I think your worries are unnecessary!"
Shaofu Morita has never seen Wu Guangyao blame him since he worked with Wu Guangyao;
At this time, he realized that Wu Guangyao was annoyed, and quickly stood up and bowed to apologize.
Wu Guangyao waved his hand and said, "Okay! I know what you are worried about. I can tell you responsibly that even if I want to do that, it won't work. After all, Lenovo Group still has hundreds of thousands of people to eat. !"
Morita Akio realized now, how redundant his worries are!
"It's because I didn't think well, which made the chairman laugh!"
Wu Guangyao nodded and said: “However, you prepare, the survival line of black and white TV sets, I intend to give them to the mainland! As for the production of color TV sets, we can slowly negotiate with the mainland and strive to establish a joint venture company.”
It is not that mainland China cannot produce black-and-white TVs, but the equipment on the production line is very old and inefficient;
So, send the entire production line equipment, which is the best demand in the mainland at the moment;
As for color TV, there is no market in mainland China, and everyone can't afford it;
But if it is used for export, wouldn't it destroy the fundamental interests of Lenovo Group.
In the original history, Konosuke Matsushita persuaded major electronics factories in Japan to support the mainland together;
Unfortunately, the response of major Japanese electronics manufacturers was mediocre, and their hearts were still full of worries;
So, Panasonic Shinnosuke had to let Matsushita Electric go to the mainland for cooperation first!
But even so, the joint venture color TV factory was officially put into production in 1987;
Think about this, because of the uncertainty of the policy, there are so many twists and turns!
There is also a reason. In the 1980s, the mainland was severely lack of foreign exchange, and the planned economy was adopted;
The foreign exchange balance is a corporate law set by the country in the 1980s to protect its own foreign exchange. It stipulates that all joint ventures that sell products domestically must achieve a foreign exchange balance. Dollar products, or more.
Any joint venture established in China is protected by law, which means that if you earn RMB, according to regulations, you have the right to exchange foreign currency for US dollars from the central bank.
Now is the initial period of reform and opening up, and all the world’s concerns are here. Therefore, in order to protect their own small foreign exchange reserves, any foreign-invested company that invests in China must discuss how to do so before signing an agreement. Maintain foreign exchange balance.
In this era, it is difficult to earn foreign exchange from the mainland government and remit it abroad!
Small numbers are okay, but bigger ones are basically impossible. For example, Coca-Cola Company, although it entered the mainland in 1978, it is not allowed to be sold to Chinese people and can only be sold to foreign businessmen or tourists in China.
Unless it is a cooperative project of strategic materials urgently needed by some countries, or a special project approved by the top leadership, it is possible to succeed, but the life of these projects is basically not long. As long as the country’s foreign exchange is consumed for a long time, this was absolutely impossible in the 1980s. Not allowed.
In any case, Wu Guangyao can provide some modern technology;
But it will be the end of eighty years at least to build factories on a large scale;
Plus, the Tin Shui Wai Industrial Park was the main force in the 1980s.
"What the boss said!"
"You just need to focus on the company. I know these things in my mind and will handle them personally!"
Cooperation does not happen overnight. It is necessary to slowly advance while waiting for the policy to become clear.
