Back to 1988

Chapter 718 Meeting
"Is the progress going well?" Su Yourong asked: "Such a large investment is invested in, so be careful yourself. This is not a traditional industry. A few days ago, several shareholders of United Capital gathered together for dinner and said Speaking of you, I can feel that they are a little regretful."

"Regret? It's too late. No one can get the money out of my pocket." Lu Feng leaned back, found a suitable posture, and said, "So far, it's going well. If there are no problems , I went back in early January."

"Then I can come back for the New Year. I plan to go home for the New Year this year. Do you want to go back with me?" Su Yourong was afraid that Lu Feng would associate too much, and said, "I just feel that you just got divorced this year, and it's pitiful to go back to celebrate the New Year alone. Damn, I haven't been back for several years, and my family thought I was missing."

"No need, no need!" Lu Feng refused.

Su Yourong on the other end of the phone seemed a little disappointed, but she didn't say much, she just talked about the concerns of some United Capital shareholders, and hoped that Lu Feng would be more stable in the future.

It is normal for them to be worried. In terms of home appliances, although foreign technologies were advanced, they had little influence on inland areas. International home appliance manufacturers mainly supply developed countries.

In the past few years, the domestic market has grown rapidly, and a series of protective measures such as tariffs have prevented them from entering the mainland market to compete with these companies.

The country's tariff barriers are the protective barriers for enterprises, and what Lu Feng is doing now is to break through this layer of security barriers, go out to fight with others, and even make a move in the high-tech field of communication, don't worry about it being fake .

Jiafeng Electronics is considered a big fish in this pond in China, but what Lu Feng is doing now is tentatively entering the sea from the river, and it is not a new thing to be directly hammered to death.

A group of people from Liucheng prepared relevant materials and called the secretary's office of Ichiro Hirata, vice president of Rohm Semiconductor Group.

The two parties made an appointment to talk in an hour.

Rohm Group headquarters, in the conference room, the second meeting held by the top management regarding the current global market competition, Ichiro Hirata flipped through the folder in front of him.

The Overseas Marketing Department is under great competition pressure in foreign markets, and domestic competition is unprecedentedly large. It is imminent to expand market cooperation in some countries.

"We still believe that the four Asian tigers are our first choice, and we will continue to increase in-depth cooperation with local companies and carry out in-depth binding!" A vice president in his fifties and sixties said firmly: "I think the development prospects of the four Asian tigers are still promising. Not fully developed, the economy can be sustainable for decades.”

Everyone present agrees that from the mid-80s to the present, with ten years of high growth, these four places seem to have untapped economic potential. They have become the four largest large-scale factories in Asia. Such products are sold all over the world.

Ichiro Hirata had a different idea, and said, "I think we can pay attention to the Chinese mainland. As far as I know, Motorola's pagers are selling very well there, and the GDP has grown rapidly in recent years."

The chairman looked at him, and other people also looked at him, with a bit of banter on their faces, the mainland?
"Mr. Hirata, haven't you read the recently released per capita GDP data?" Another vice president looked at him and said, "The per capita GDP of mainland China was 1993 US dollars in [-], and the one in front of her is Africa. Zambia."

Everyone present couldn't help laughing. The current per capita GDP in the mainland is lagging behind most countries in Africa, and the per capita consumption power is very low!
The chairman thought of something, looked at Ichiro Hirata and asked, "Didn't you tell me some time ago that a Huaxia company wanted to buy our laboratory?"

"Yes!" Ichiro Hirata nodded and said, "We are currently in contact with an electronics group company in mainland China. They are very sincere."

"Ruixin Laboratory has been abandoned for several years, and related research and development has long since stagnated. Those technologies are of no use to us. If the price is right, they can be sold!" The chairman thought for a while and asked everyone: "What do you think?"

"I disagree!" A tall, thin man said: "These technologies are indeed of little use to us, but to them, they are advanced technologies. According to international practice, they cannot be sold to China." .”

The so-called international practice is actually the international high-end technology blockade led by the United States, including a series of regulations prohibiting the sale of precision machine tools, large-scale gantry cranes, tunnel shield machines, military technology, and chemical technology.

Below these are a series of unwritten international unspoken rules. All technology patents that can promote production are not transferable, especially precision machine tool technology, which is called the mother of industry.

Ichiro Hirata hesitated for a moment, and said: "This is just some semiconductor technology from the early years, and it doesn't contain much. I don't think it involves the so-called embargo regulations. Even if they get these technologies, what can they do? Top Make more pagers, the pagers we had more than ten years ago are just."

"Globally, it is very difficult to find a suitable buyer. After another ten years, these technical patents are really old-fashioned and worthless. At this critical moment, it is very important for the group to recover a little blood." Good thing. Besides, what year is this, this is 1994, not 1972!"

The debate on the scene was quite heated. The chairman pondered for a while, closed the folder in front of him, and said, "Today's meeting will be here first. Regarding the matter of Ruixin Lab, I will trouble Mr. Hirata."

Hirata Ichiro stood up and bowed slightly, nodded and said, "Hi!"

Everyone walked out of the meeting room. Not long after Hirata Ichiro walked out, the vice president in charge of business department Shi Watanabe came over, looked at him and said, "You seem to be very interested in selling Ruixin Lab?"

"I am the general manager of the group's overseas assets. I have my own assessment of these assets. Ruixin Lab is too old and needs to be sold. If we wait any longer, it will be a loss for the group!" Ichiro Hirata said in a deep voice.

"Who is it bad to sell to? Why sell to him? We can definitely sell to companies in the United States." Watanabe suggested.

"I want to sell them too, but they don't want it!" Hirata Ichiro said angrily.

"Then give it to them as a gift." Watanabe frowned and said, "If you can't do it, I still know a lot of people on Wall Street..."

"Don't mention your experience on Wall Street anymore. We all know that you have the experience of studying in the United States. Don't meddle in my work!" He stared at Shi Watanabe, turned around and walked towards his office, whispering: "Wall Street is the most Loyal dog!!"

As soon as I got back to the office, the secretary came in and said, "Mr. Minister, the person in charge of Jiafeng Electronics Group is calling. I hope to discuss with you about Ruixin Lab. I have an appointment in three minutes."

"Okay, call for me now." Ichiro Hirata still wanted to push forward with this matter, because he felt that the chairman wanted to sell Ruixin Lab in exchange for part of the funds.

The secretary connected the phone and made some simple exchanges. Lu Feng was already sitting by the phone.

"Dear Lu Feng-san, it's a pleasure to talk with you on the phone!" Hirata Ichiro said politely.

"Mr. Hirata, I am also very happy to hear your voice. We have contacted you before, and we arrived yesterday. We are absolutely sincere about this acquisition!" Lu Feng said into the phone, the little girl who translated Just sit aside.

"You've worked hard. Let's have dinner together today. I'll treat you to cleanse the dust for you. At the same time, we are also very sincere. We will have a formal meeting tomorrow." Hirata Ichiro suggested.

"Okay, no problem!" Lu Feng agreed.

"In order to show the friendship of the landlord, I will send the company's car to pick you up."

Ichiro Hirata really wanted to sell, but such a large group is complicated and intertwined, so it is not easy to go smoothly.

At five o'clock in the evening, three black Toyota cars parked downstairs. Lu Feng and his group got into the car and headed straight to the hotel.

Songchuan Japanese Food Store is a well-known restaurant in the local area. It is said that it has been passed down for three generations. The people here are more good at the spirit of "craftsman". Whatever the father does, the son will do whatever it is. The son is also a stonemason.

Such a social structure is doomed to be oppressive, and everyone is a little bit unwilling deep in their hearts. When I go to see this society during the day, I find it rigorous, gentle, and kind, and when I go to see it at night, I feel unrestrained, and the surface and heart are extremely torn apart.

On the tatami mat, Lu Feng felt a little uncomfortable. There were three people sitting opposite Ichiro Hirata. He looked at Lu Feng with a look of disbelief.

"Are you the chairman of Jiafeng Electronics Group?" He asked in surprise.

"Yes, I'm Lu Feng." Lu Feng replied.

"May I ask, how old are you this year?"

"New year, twenty-seven years old." Lu Feng said.

"Si Guoyi!" Hirata Ichiro opened his mouth wide in surprise, poured himself a glass of wine, raised the glass and said, "Toast to you, I'm your age, and I'm still a small employee."

"Cheers, cheers!" Lu Feng took a sip from his wine glass and asked, "What is the current attitude of the group's senior management towards Ruixin Lab? I want to know."

Hirata Ichiro really wanted to sell it, but he would not say it stupidly, he hesitated and said: "Internal opinions are relatively scattered, it mainly depends on your sincerity, because the patent rights of Ruixin Lab still have many core technologies. .”

After saying this, Liucheng laughed at the side, and couldn't help but said: "I am the person in charge of Jiafeng Electronics R&D Company, and the technical patents of Ruixin Lab are all obsolete by the times, and you will not sell the core technology. ,Right!"
