Eight hundred and seventieth chapters consistent inside and outside
Kong Dongfang was here on a business trip, and Fang Zhe stopped by to hook up, mainly for the future.
However, if you do something, you have to love it. Kong Dongfang's current position determines the scope of what he talks about.
"You did a great job in acquiring IBM's personal computer business this time." He started praising me.
Fang Zhe naturally felt very comfortable when he heard this, but he had suffered a lot from Piao in the past, so he was much more stable.
"The price is very high!" Kong Dongfang naturally understood what Fang Zhe meant. On someone else's territory, if you can accomplish this, the price you have to pay is certainly not small.
"Can you talk about it? How did you do it? Accumulate some experience for other companies to go overseas in the future." Kong Dongfang is very concerned about this. How is the domestic economic situation? Don't look at various reports from foreign media and don't look at various rumors on the Internet. He
But it is too clear. In the past, the country had limited foreign exchange, and many companies were subsidized as long as they could export, and they had to do business even if they sold at a loss. After joining the WTO, the situation has been completely reversed.
Fang Zhe still admires Kong Dongfang's vision. At this stage, foreign companies are still acquiring domestic companies. He has already set his sights on domestic companies going overseas to acquire companies in the future.
"It's difficult! If calculated according to normal prices, this brand is worth at most 1.5 billion, and the actual cost far exceeds the qualified figure. There are also many connections involved. Goldman Sachs lobbied for huge benefits, and Intel signed the contract
The long-term CPU order, as well as the price of chip foundry, is also a long-term contract." Fang Zhe was rather vague and did not mention the specific benefits of Sheng Na.
"After paying such a big price, Feida's position as the number one brand in the country has been firmly established, and you won't lose." Kong Dongfang saw that he didn't mean to elaborate, so he didn't ask further, waiting for him to say it himself.
"IBM's personal computer business itself does not have any sensitive technology. The future share of the U.S. market can only be competed for at low prices. To make money back in the U.S. market, you have to sell as many computers as you want. This acquisition is not for technology.
It is to protect the existing chip foundry industry. In the future, other aspects of our country can slowly catch up. The chip foundry for the civilian market is likely to be a huge shortcoming. With this transaction, we will be fed.
Many people will encounter much less resistance when purchasing a new generation of photolithography machines. With interests tied up, even if someone wants to stop it, they will be delayed for a long time."
Kong Dongfang didn't expect Fang Zhe to turn the conversation to this topic, and felt that the article was a bit off topic.
"The situation in the United States is actually not good. The two wars cost too much. On the surface, it looks like peace and harmony, but in fact it contains a huge crisis. In particular, George W. Bush cannot accept the economic downturn during his term, and financial capital will regulate it.
The consequences will be revealed in at most five years. Our country's current export-oriented economic structure has big problems."
Fang Zhe's words came back again, seemingly chatting, but it depends on who you are talking to, so the topic must be controlled accurately.
"Oh, do you think the U.S. economy will have big problems in five years?" Kong Dongfang is an expert, and the question is very accurate.
"Similar things have happened before, but it was not that serious last time. The United States has a strong foundation and recovered in two years. But what about next time? What will happen next time, who knows? Financial crisis is capital
It is an incurable disease of socialism. Looking at the country, after industrialization is completed, overproduction is inevitable, sooner or later. No matter what happens, someone should shout out early. An export-oriented economy is a national policy. If there is a financial crisis in the United States,
, will it affect the whole world?”
Kong Dongfang understood and nodded: "What you mean is to plan ahead and at least find someone to study this topic first."
"One more thing, although I don't understand economics, I understand history. Our country and the West have two completely different development contexts. What is taught in our schools is all Western economic theory. In the future
Will there come a day when our scholars will no longer be able to speak without Western theories? The current system in the West means that the capitalists make money, but the people at the bottom cannot allocate much from the profits of capital. Over time,
The gap between the rich and the poor is getting wider and wider. Once this happens, it will inevitably cause the political atmosphere to turn to the right, and then there will be internal divisions."
This seems to be a joke. We say we are crossing the river by our fingers, but we are almost scratching our heads. In fact, many things cannot be copied. They come from two civilizations and two systems. We can
Learn what others do well and take precautions against what they do not do well.
Fang Zhe's words are the understanding accumulated over two lifetimes, especially the more contact he has with the Angsa people, the more he can understand the pirate nature of this group of people. This thing is inherited from the same origin and has never changed.
Kong Dongfang kept silent for a few moments, but continued chatting casually: "What do you think the United States will do if something goes wrong?"
"Of course I'm asking the whole world to help wipe my butt. The Federal Reserve starts printing money, and the federal government wants to sell national debt. When the time comes, one by one, as long as the economy reaches the size, everyone will have to help. What's more?
, the pattern that we are a major manufacturing country has been determined. In the future, all countries in the world will be tied up, and the scale of manufacturing will not be enough. Manufacturing cannot be separated from raw materials, and our country has serious resource shortcomings, such as the trading of bulk commodities.
The pricing power is not in our hands. There will be many bad things in the future, just wait and see. The resource with the largest storage volume in our country is rare earths. Rare earth mining is too chaotic now. Should your department take some control?
. If it doesn’t work, find a reporter to do an undercover investigation and write a reference later or something.”
The two had a lively chat, covering almost any topic. There was only a bottle of red wine and no food, just a plate of peanuts, which they drank completely.
Kong Dongfang said goodbye and left before dinner, with no intention of eating, and Fang Zhe had no intention of staying.
This guy is a good bragging target, nothing more. As for how deep the friendship is, Fang Zhe would never dream of it.
The price paid for this series of activities in the United States is huge. But the rules of this world are set by others. If you want to make money in other people's places and under other people's rules, you have to feed the relevant stakeholders. This
It's a very helpless thing.
In fact, our country was in the same situation in the middle of the Qing Dynasty. To be precise, the foreign trade in the Ming and Qing Dynasties was based on the model of collecting money on the ground. The silk, tea, and porcelain in hand occupied an absolute advantage in foreign trade.
.There are almost no products to import from the West, so get up early and have some spice.
Kong Dongfang was not calm on the way back. Although Fang Zhe was just chatting, the things he said sounded general. How could Kong Dongfang, who had been immersed in specific work for many years, think that he was really chatting.
Many of these things are happening now, or are likely to happen in the future. Take soybeans, for example. Everyone can see them, but who gave the warning?
There are three possibilities here: some people don't understand it, some people understand it but don't say anything, and there are still some people who understand it and make profits from it.
After completing the exclusive interview in the imperial capital, Guo Yurong flew back to Songjiang overnight. Watching the interview process on TV showed that she was a strong woman full of confidence and far-sightedness. The program was recorded in the afternoon and broadcast that night.
While Fang Zhe was watching TV, Guo Yurong's car parked at the door of the villa. He got out of the car and rang the doorbell. The person who opened the door was the life secretary Jiang Miao. There was no nanny at home, and the property management arranged for people to come and clean it.
When he saw Jiang Miao, Guo Yurong showed a kind smile on his face and looked at Fang Zhe in the living room.
"I'm back, I'm watching your interview." Fang Zhe pressed mute to speak, and then continued to watch the program with the sound on.
Gu Yao
Guo Yurong on the TV was talking about this acquisition: "Feida Computer has been making moves to expand the market overseas, but it was difficult for the Feida brand to be accepted before. At least in terms of notebook computers, the acceptance rate among foreign users was very low.
After considering the issues comprehensively, we came up with the idea of acquiring a foreign brand..."
Seeing this, Fang Zhe raised his hand and turned off the TV. This is nonsense. Is there any lofty reason for Feida to acquire IBM's personal computer project? The reason is very simple. In the next ten years, the mainland will be the largest
Laptop computer market. For this market, Fang Zhe only came up with the idea of acquisition.
Speaking of which, today's Feida is the pride of a national brand. No one can stop it, even Jesus can't stop it.
As for the U.S. market, to be honest, even if it acquires IBM's notebook computer project, it will still have to fight to the death. Do you really think that Dell, Samsung, Sony, and Asus are just decorations? If nothing else, the Dell brand has a strong presence in the U.S. market.
Natural advantages.
"The most acute issue we discussed at the beginning was the place of production. The wages of workers in the United States were too high, and IBM insisted that one of them be assembled in the United States. At the last moment, Yun Jue and I both got up and left, preparing to give up. In the evening, Lister came over on behalf of Goldman Sachs to inform
We were ready to sign the contract. Later I found out that IBM also had many internal conflicts, and the senior executive who insisted on assembling the plant in the United States was removed."
"It's not just the United States. Wherever there are people in the world, there will be conflicts of interest. When there are conflicts of interests, conflicts will arise."
The two chatted while they were talking. When they arrived upstairs, Guo Yurong asked seemingly casually: "Is Jiang Miao moving in too?"
"As for the life secretary, Zhao Jie arranged it." Fang Zhe is not going to admit it. Zhao Jie arranged it, but you won't veto it?
Fang Zhe felt secretly happy about this matter. In her previous life, Fang Zhe was the one who served her, but in this life, she would do the opposite.
Fang Zhe is always in a happy mood when he has nothing to do with Jiang Miao.
On the other hand, Jiang Miao is also very happy. She lives in such a big house, has a car to pick her up when she goes out, is still learning to get a driver's license recently, and will be equipped with a car in the future. Not to mention the salary, the basic salary is not high, but there are many various subsidies, and there are still many allowances every day when traveling.
What about the subsidy of 100 yuan? What good things can a technical secondary school student think about? Where can he find a job with such a good salary?
The only worry was when Fang Zhe's claws would fall. Jiang Miao didn't say anything, but she still had a little expectation in her heart.
It's very quiet at night. I live alone in the guest room below. There is a computer in the room, so I can surf the Internet and play games at will.
When he went out to the bathroom, he suddenly heard some strange noises upstairs. Jiang Miao subconsciously looked up. He didn't see the cat, but heard a long and emphatic groan. Jiang Miao's face turned red immediately.
, step up your legs and run to the bathroom.
Rich people are really perverted. Isn't it comfortable to stay in bed? It has to be in the corridor.
While lying on the bed, Guo Yurong concluded in her mind that Fang Zhe must be looking for excitement. It was the same as in the car, the bathroom, the kitchen, etc. There was someone living in the guest room downstairs, and he heard footsteps.
At that time, Guo Yurong was also very exciting.
I silently thought to myself, I must win this time!
Guo Yurong's shares in Feida are not very large, and she can only be regarded as a small shareholder. She wants more. Today's time was specially chosen, otherwise she would not be able to fly back to Songjiang overnight, and she would eat dinner on the plane.
meal.
"I will rest for a few days when I come back this time. After returning to the special zone, I will organize the team as soon as possible. The production base in Luzhou will be determined first, and the construction will be completed and put into production as quickly as possible. The IBM series of personal computers are produced in China and are used more frequently.
To impact the US market with low prices, of course the price must be consistent at home and abroad. Quality and configuration should not be treated differently."
This must be decided in advance. Domestic companies strictly control quality when exporting, but this is not necessarily the case in the domestic market. For the sake of profit, capital will do anything unethical. Fang Zhe doesn’t think so much about wealth now.
As I became heavier, I became more concerned about reputation.
Guo Yurong was special tonight, especially when facing the pictures on the TV, Fang Zhe was even more excited.
Sometimes I think about it, those glamorous female celebrities on the screen are easy to become targets of sexual harassment, and there is indeed a basis for it.
Well, you can try it next time, while the TV series is being broadcast...
Corrupted, corrupted, fallen, fallen.
Fang Zhe criticized his idea, but it had no effect. People are generally a little fun, like a certain rich man in Japan. The motivation for making money is to save women who have fallen apart. Later, as his wealth increased, he began to change his goals.
While Fang Zhe was thinking wildly, the female driver regained her energy and started to step on the accelerator again.
As an experienced driver, Guo Yurong entered the state very skillfully and was completely helpless.
On this issue, Fang Zhe is very conscious. You are such a scumbag, why don't you try harder.
It seems that in the future, we should pay attention to keeping our whereabouts secret, and try to hide as much as possible, otherwise our lifespan will not be long.
When April was about to pass, Guo Yurong led a team to Luzhou. In name, they visited various places and finally made a choice. In fact, after Fang Zhe went to Luzhou in person, the matter was basically confirmed. All actions were taken.
In order to strive for the best conditions, Luzhou did provide huge preferential policies in order to retain Feida Group.
Guo Yurong acted very quickly this time. In just one week, the two parties signed the contract. Feida Group reached an agreement with the Luzhou local government to build a new production base there, without revealing any information about the mobile phone project.
