My Age of Investment

Chapter 1418: between friends

   Chapter 1418 Between friends, regardless of each other

  As a descendant of the soldier saint, Sun Zhengyi has naturally seen Sun Tzu's Art of War.

   As soon as Xia Jingxing finished speaking, he immediately read the following text: "The shape of a soldier, avoid the real and attack the virtual."

  Xia Jingxing clapped his hands and praised: "Mr. Sun is worthy of being a descendant of the sage of soldiers, and Sun Tzu's art of war is remarkably well-recited. It was me who played a big sword in front of Guan Gong."

  Masayoshi Sun laughed, he liked the recognition of his identity as the descendant of the soldier saint the most, and Xia Jingxing's words undoubtedly scratched his itch.

   "Dailun, you have won the prize. In my opinion, you are the entrepreneur who understands Sun Tzu's Art of War the most. During the growth of Facebook, I saw a lot of shadows about the Art of War.

   Please tell me how to avoid the real attack. "

Everyone knows the principle of   . The key is how to use it. This is where a person’s ability is tested.

  Xia Jingxing pondered for a moment, then gently picked up the small teacup on the table.

   "The tea ceremony first originated in China, and later spread to Japan. Although Japan in modern times clamored to "leave Asia and enter Europe", Japan has always been a country deeply influenced by Chinese culture."

  Sun Zhengyi nodded lightly, "Yes, everyone is in the influence circle of East Asian Confucian culture, this is undeniable."

   "Okay, this comes to the question I just mentioned.

  Wisdom Fruit Company, as an American company, its strengths are brand and technology, but what are its weaknesses? "

  Sun Zhengyi frowned slightly, this question... well, I can't answer it for a while.

  Xia Jingxing smiled at Sun Zhengyi, "I will answer you, its weakness is arrogance, which is a common problem of many large companies, and it is also a stumbling block that prevents them from going further in localization."

   "Are you arrogant?" Sun Zhengyi was a little puzzled.

   "Aren't you arrogant? I heard that their negotiation with NTT finally succeeded after a lot of hard work. They not only asked NTT to promise a certain amount of sales, allow the call fee to be shared, and even asked NTT to open the patent.

  I can conclude that NTT would never have agreed to sign a contract with Wisdom Fruit had it not been threatened by our business combination. "

Sun Zhengyi didn't say anything, because Xia Jingxing was right, and he was right, NTT's position in Japan is the same as that of ATT in the United States and China's Mobile. If it wasn't for SoftBank's crazy new user numbers, in any case Nor will he bow his head to the fruit of wisdom.

"Wisdom fruit has always had a strong attitude towards its partners. This is because they are very confident and believe that their products can bring new users to telecom operators, so telecom operators will keep their mouths shut, and I will hold back any dissatisfaction. "

  Masayoshi Sun frowned slightly, what he said... not very pleasant.

   "It's different when we revive mobile phones. We respect every partner because we firmly believe that only local partners know the local mobile phone market best and can formulate marketing promotion plans according to local conditions.

   Friends will respect you only if you respect them.

  When a pair of intimate business portfolios work together to do one thing, the effect is not as simple as one plus one equals two.

   In other words, the relationship between our pair is more harmonious than Wisdom Fruit and NTT, there is not so much intrigue between each other, and both recognize and trust each other very much. "

  Sun Zhengyi nodded and smiled, which is not wrong. Their business combination is indeed more intimate than the combination of Wisdom Fruit and NTT.

   Not long ago, Wisdom Guo wanted to dig a corner, and he was rejected by his righteous words.

  Xia Jingxing said with a light smile: "So we have to avoid the "real" of the fruit of wisdom and attack its "empty"."

  Sun Zhengyi lowered his head and thought for a few seconds, and quickly replied: "Daren, do you mean that NTT is the emptiness of the fruit of wisdom?"

"Yes, didn't you find out? NTT was reluctant to sign the cooperation agreement from the very beginning. We increased the pressure a little bit, and the business combination may have to argue with each other, so our opportunity will come. "

   Increase the pressure?

  Masayoshi Son reacted. After a long time, Softbank was asked to chew on the hard bones. Is this abacus too good?

  Masayoshi Sun shook his head like a rattle, "No, no, Darren, Softbank has launched promotions such as no down payment and zero yuan purchase, and free replacement for battery damage within one year.

   In order to solve the network problem that Softbank does not have an advantage, we even invested a lot of money to lay WiFi.

   If we continue to increase investment, we cannot afford it alone. "

  Xia Jingxing scolded the old fox in his heart, you are also the richest man in Asia or even the richest man in the world. Although it is only a one-day tour of the rich list, you cannot be so cowardly.

   "Mr. Sun~"

   Before Xia Jingxing could speak, Sun Zhengyi waved his hand and said, "Dalun, since we are the most intimate partners, then I will give you the bottom line.

  I agree with your plan of avoiding the real and attacking the virtual, and I also think that NTT should give priority to attacking them before they have tasted too much sweetness from the cooperation with Wisdom Fruit.

   But this matter is not just a matter of SoftBank, and should also contribute to the revival of mobile phones.

   Think about it, if the two of us work together to seek common development, and the two are not of one mind, what will be the consequences?

   The Japanese mobile phone market is very closed. Once the Fuxing mobile phone is taken down, it can secure its dominant position for at least ten years. "

  Xia Jingxing smiled and did not speak, and was taught a lesson by the old grandson.

   But Lao Sun didn’t talk nonsense. The Japanese mobile phone market is indeed more evil. Wisdom fruit in the previous life was the first to enter, and then it has been firmly in the dominant position. The Chinese mobile phone brands that have destroyed the market in other countries can’t even come in and get a piece of the pie.

   This has a lot to do with China’s weak brand strength, but it is also inseparable from Wisdom Fruit’s first completion of market domination.

  Xia Jingxing thought about it, in order to take root in the Japanese market for a long time, instead of making a quick buck and running away, long-term investment is definitely essential.

   And once the Fuxing mobile phone is firmly rooted, WeChat can also go to Japan along this network.

   Here again involves the habitual thinking of the Japanese. Once you get used to something, you will not easily change it.

In the past life, Japan was one of the few markets in the world that was not captured by WhatsApp. The instant messaging market in the country was dominated by a product called LINE, which was developed by NHNJapan, a Japanese subsidiary of the South Korean Internet group NHN, and later also collaborated with recipients. SoftBank-controlled Yahoo Japan merged into a larger, more diversified internet conglomerate.

   Now Masayoshi Son said that SoftBank will pay half of the money to help revive the development of mobile phones in Japan. Of course, Masayoshi Son's main purpose is to fight NTT and grab market share from the other side.

   But now everyone is a prosperous relationship, a loss and a loss.

  Old Sun spends money to revive the mobile phone and can also benefit, and WeChat will also benefit in the future...

  Xia Jingxing made the calculations in his mind, this wave is definitely not a loss, this business can be done.

   So he quickly decided: "Since Mr. Sun has said so, then I will sacrifice my life to accompany the gentleman."

   "It's not that serious, your hair is thicker than other people's thighs. If the richest man in Asia makes a move, even NTT will be heartbroken!"

  Xia Jingxing laughed, it seems that this old grandson is really a descendant of his grandson, and the routines are followed one after the other.

   It doesn't matter, then I'll take the bait of Jiang Taigong's fishing volunteer.

   "Okay, Mr. Sun, then let's settle it. Fuxing Mobile will take out two years of profits from the Japanese market and play a big game with you."

   "Daren, we have a win-win situation. Fuxing Mobile can take this opportunity to achieve better sales results in the Japanese market, and then firmly occupy the minds of users like Japanese cars in China."

  Xia Jingxing smiled and said that he was domineering like a Japanese car. This is not easy. The main reason is that the domestic national auto industry has not been able to develop, thus giving the books a chance to get stuck.

   However, the current Japanese local mobile phone manufacturers, Sharp, Sony, Fujitsu, and Kyocera are all very old, and they have done a good job in the hardware, but the software and ecology are not good.

  In the past, strong players such as Nokia were unable to conquer the Japanese market, because the Japanese electronics industry was quite developed, and at the same time, it was relatively repulsive to outsiders.

  When the fruit of wisdom that both hardware and software grasped came in, the books couldn't stand it completely, and the other party was American, so they just lay down and counted the ball.

"Daren, how is Facebook's preparations? Now that the financial crisis has ended for more than half a year, and market confidence is recovering rapidly, Facebook's presence at this time can definitely boost market confidence and attract more attention. A lot of capital is entering the platform.”

   Xia Jingxing knew what Sun Zhengyi was in a hurry, and replied with a smile: "Next year! This year will definitely not catch up."

   "Okay, next year will be good too."

  Sun Zhengyi smiled, and he didn't ask any more questions, so as not to be annoying.

   "Youtube has spent a lot on bandwidth in the past two years, and it may take another round of financing to last until it is acquired by Facebook."

  Masayoshi Son stared at Xia Jingxing, feeling trapped.

   Wasn’t it a good idea to “guarantee principal and interest, and exit quickly”? Why should I charge the unfrozen funds again?

  Xia Jingxing saw Sun Zhengyi's embarrassment and smiled, "I mean let's go to the oil tycoon. Those people are not short of money, but projects."

  Sun Zhengyi's eyes suddenly lit up, "Sogas Nei!"

   He is no stranger to the oil tyrants. Those people... um, they are easy to talk to.

   "Mr. Sun, now that the cooperation between us is basically over, shouldn't it be time to talk about the thing I asked you to do?"

  Masayoshi Sun looked up at Xia Jingxing, looked at the smiling face of the other party, and answered without hesitation: "Of course there is no problem, what Daren explained is my business.

  If it is not done for you, I will not dare to invite you in today. "

   "Haha, then there is Mr. Lawson."

   "Among friends, there is no distinction between each other."

  …

   After taking the medicine for two days, I feel better. I will resume the update today, otherwise someone should say weird things again, hahaha, fortunately, most book friends are still reasonable, thank you for your understanding.

   In other words, after two days of suspension, the monthly pass ranking has even risen. It is indeed a bit embarrassing. Thank you again for your support.
