Although both the Fenlan National Telecommunications Group and the Fenlan National Workers Union are large organizations in Fenlan, they are not at the same conceptual level.
It is impossible to succeed in dealing with telecommunications groups using the same tactics used against workers' unions.
Therefore, Li Jin also attached great importance to this meeting with Simon, chairman of the telecommunications group.
At this meeting, Li Jin brought Zhao Zili, and Brayson personally came forward as the intermediary.
At the headquarters building of the National Telecommunications Group, Li Jin met Simon.
A skinny old man in his early sixties.
Although he was thin, the palms he shook hands with Li Jin were very powerful, and his eyes shone with a slender light. The whole person looked energetic, and he did not look like an old man in his sixties who was about to retire.
"Hello, Chairman Simon." Li Jin greeted politely.
Simon laughed and said, "Hello, Mr. Li."
Brayson enlivened the atmosphere and said: "Although there is a big age gap between the two, they are both outstanding representatives of their respective countries and fields. There will definitely be many common topics."
"Brayson, I can't compare with Mr. Li. Mr. Li is young, but he has already made the world's most powerful country like the United States very troubled. No one on Wall Street doesn't know the name Li Jin, but I have been working for decades, but
There is no such achievement," Simon said.
Brayson laughed and said: "Simon, you are too polite."
"No, I'm not being polite."
Simon shook his head, looked at Li Jin with stern eyes, and said: "Mr. Li has already brought many American companies to the brink of bankruptcy in China. Now you have come to the branch in person and tell me what you want to do to my country."
do what?"
The atmosphere suddenly became tense because of Simon's words.
You should know that as one of the few state-owned groups in China, China Telecom Group has an undisputed monopoly in the domestic telecommunications industry.
It can be said that Simon has been the uncrowned king of the country's telecommunications industry for decades.
Simon, an old man, has been in charge of the National Telecommunications Group for decades, and his momentum is not comparable to that of ordinary people.
Zhao Zili, who followed Li Jin and acted as a learner and follower, was so nervous that he didn't even dare to breathe.
Li Jin smiled and said: "I am a businessman. I advocate the pursuit of interests and profits. My only criterion for judging the success of a transaction is whether both the buyer and the seller can profit from it. Apart from that, I am not a terrorist."
Molecule, why is Chairman Simon so afraid of me?"
"I fear you?"
Simon laughed.
Although he was thin, his laughter was very loud.
"Young man from China, you overestimate yourself. Why should I be afraid of you?"
"Yes, why is Chairman Simon afraid of me? I am here to bring benefits to the National Telecommunications Group. What reason do you have to be afraid of me?"
Facing Li Jin's words, Simon's smile disappeared. He snorted coldly and said: "Don't think I don't know what you think. Do you want to acquire Nokia? I can tell you that no matter what method you use to acquire Nokia,
Ya, in the telecommunications group, you can't buy a single stock, and it's impossible for me to sell Nokia's shares."
“Whether it’s my optimism about Nokia as a company or my love and protection of my country’s pillar industry as a genuine fencer, I will not allow a foreigner to take over Nokia!”
When he said these words, Simon's eyes were looking at Brayson.
His meaning is obvious, that is, he despises Brayson's behavior of "traitoring his country and seeking glory".
Brayson looked embarrassed and annoyed, but he refrained from getting angry and just turned his head away.
But deep down in his heart, Brayson had already scolded Simon who was stubborn and shameless.
"President Brayson."
Li Jin turned to look at Brayson, pointed at Simon and asked: "Is this old man really the chairman of the National Telecom Group? Why does it seem to me that he is a pedantic, stupid and short-sighted silly old man?"
These words made Brayson and Zhao Zili stunned and made Simon furious.
I've never seen someone curse like this from the beginning.
"Damn Chinese, what did you say!?" Simon stared at Li Jin coldly and shouted.
"Did I said wrong thing?"
Li Jin chuckled lightly and said: "As the chairman of the State Telecom Group, what you have to consider is how to bring the State Telecom Group to a higher level before you retire, rather than just for the ownership of a private enterprise.
Speak some truth."
"Chairman Simon, you are really old and it's time to retire."
"The world of the future is a world of a global village and a world of global interconnection. Even countries and nations must work together to achieve a win-win situation. But you stubbornly insist that so-called companies with separate columns cannot let foreign countries
If someone buys it, don’t you think you are naive?”
Simon laughed angrily and said to Li Jin: "No matter how much you say, you can't hide the fact that you want to buy away the national pride of the country."
"Yes, I want to buy, but since I am here, it means that some people also want to sell. Do you think you can stop them?"
Li Jin said unceremoniously: "The National Telecommunications Group, at best, only owns 11% of Nokia's shares. What can this 11% determine and represent?"
"The worst I can do is not want your 11%. There are still 89% of the shares outside. As long as the shareholding ratio exceeds 51%, I can reorganize the board of directors and complete the control of Nokian. Chairman Simon, may I ask you
What's stopping me?"
Li Jin's words made Simon's expression extremely ugly.
The atmosphere fell into stalemate and silence.
"Or."
Li Jin spoke again, taking the initiative to break the embarrassing silence.
"Can Chairman Simon get a license to enter the telecommunications industry in the port city, and a commitment to be allowed to enter the mainland of China to engage in telecommunications business in the future?"
As soon as these words came out, it was shocking.
Simon's eyes widened and he looked at Li Jin with disbelief and horror.
Zhao Zili and Brayson were also confused.
No one here is stupid.
They all understand that the telecommunications industry is a basic livelihood industry monopolized by the state, and it is generally impossible to allow foreign companies to enter.
This is also the reason why the telecommunications industry in most countries is monopolized by state-owned enterprises.
Imagine if a foreign company mastered the secrets of phone calls and mobile phone communications between most of the country's citizens and officials, would this country still be safe?
That is to say, highly developed capitalist countries like the United States and Eagle Country will allow some foreign companies to participate in this industry in the form of licenses.
But even so, telecom companies with monopoly status must be domestic companies, and foreign companies will never be able to compete with them.
And what confidence does Li Jin have to make such a promise?
