Chapter 1150 Huge Market
"Your Excellency's father is..." Tanaka asked curiously.

"My family is hard to describe in words. There are some things I don't want to mention again, so please forgive me." When Duan Yun said this, a look of sadness flashed across his face.

"Ah... sorry!" Tanaka said apologetically upon seeing this.

"It's okay..." Duan Yun smiled again, only to hear him continue: "This time, it has been my long-cherished wish to establish a joint venture with Toshiba. The whole world is regarded as the top, and it is my honor to cooperate with such an excellent company as yours."

"Mr. Duan Yun is overwhelmed. Our company has been committed to the research of the world's cutting-edge technology industry. It has been doing business in your China for a long time. It is also our honor to come to Huaneng to cooperate with Mr. Duan this time." Hearing Duan Yun That being said, the three Japanese in the same car also showed smiles on their faces. In any case, what Duan Yun said really made them feel very proud.

"Mr. Duan Yun, Toshiba has cooperated with your domestic state-owned manufacturers before, but this is the first time we have heard that there are private companies in China. Isn't it illegal for your Chinese private companies?" Sitting in the back row Suzuki Song asked Duan Yun.

"There is nothing in this world that remains unchanged. China is also advancing with the times and gradually connecting with the world." Duan Yun turned his head and glanced at Lin Shusong, and then said: "Since the end of the 70s, our country has started to change. Reform and opening up. The city of SZ where I live is a bridgehead of reform and opening up. There are many private companies like me here, and the state also attaches great importance to and supports them. Especially our company has a very good relationship with the local municipal government, so in There are no problems in terms of operations."

"So that's how it is..." Suzuki Song nodded when he heard the words, and then asked Duan Yun: "I heard that your company mainly produces electronic products. What does it sell specifically? How is the business situation?"

Suzuki Matsu has been trying to find out about Duan Yun, because Toshiba currently has very limited knowledge of Duan Yun's Tianyin Electronics Factory, and only got a general understanding of the situation through Fujio Masuoka's statement at an internal meeting. Fujio Masuoka didn't know many specific things.

"Our factory has produced subwoofer audio before, which is an international patented product of ours. In addition, it has also produced tape recorders, and now it mainly produces Walkmans." Duan Yun paused, and then said: "This year, the net profit of our electronics factory It will reach 2 million. According to the current domestic foreign exchange rate, if converted into US dollars, it will be more than 8 million US dollars..."

"More than $7000 million!?"

Hearing the number Duan Yun said, the Japanese in the same car were shocked.

Even in Japan, a company with an annual net profit of US$7 million is considered a very strong company. Japan is a vertical society, and there are many family businesses that have lasted for several generations. The same product, although it is true that it can achieve the level of excellence in terms of technology, including electronics and machinery companies, can produce world-class products, but because of fierce competition, the cutting-edge products produced by many companies are incompatible with the market. The disconnect, and the fact that most companies are relatively small, means that not many companies can achieve $000 million in annual profits, despite having the most advanced technology in the world.

"Mr. Duan Yun, do you mean that your electronics factory can make a profit of 7 million US dollars a year?" Suzuki Matsu was obviously still a little unbelievable, and asked Duan Yun again.

"If Mr. Suzuki doesn't believe it, you can entrust your friends in China to check the annual tax status of our company. This should be a very simple matter, and I don't need to cheat, because it is the truth." Duan Yun paused After a while, he continued: "In addition, recently, our factory is participating in the Canton Fair this autumn. I don't know if you are familiar with the Canton Fair. The export-oriented Walkman products exhibited by our factory this year have won 2 so far. 000 million orders, the customers are mainly from Southeast Asian countries, although we cannot compare with your Japanese companies in technology, we have a very strong advantage in terms of price..."

"Mr. Duan Yun, you are really amazing!" Hearing this, Tanaka gave Duan Yun a thumbs up.

"It's not about how good I am. My business can grow so big without the support of the SZ city government. After all, this is the bridgehead of my country's reform and opening up, and many business policies are very loose." Duan Yun smiled slightly , and then said: "The other thing is that our Chinese market has great potential now. I think you Toshiba should understand that Toshiba color TVs have been a well-known brand in my country in the past few years, and their annual sales are doubling year by year. I think you should be able to see the potential of the Chinese market..."

Duan Yun understands that when these Japanese companies come to China to set up joint ventures, on the one hand, they need to look at the attitude of the Chinese government; The electrical appliance market is mainly located in European and American countries, but now Japanese companies account for an increasing proportion of sales in the Chinese market, and even have great potential to surpass European and American countries.

So Duan Yun only needs to grasp these two key points, which is enough to make Toshiba tempted.

Sure enough, upon hearing what Duan Yun said, several Japanese people in the same car nodded their approval.

"Mr. Duan Yun, you are a very great businessman, but I still don't understand why you want to invest in the chip industry. Besides, this kind of flash memory chip technology has just appeared. Can there really be a market in China?" Tanaka asked .

Tanaka still doubts whether flash memory chips can sell well in the Chinese market, because this kind of chip technology is relatively new, but it has not been valued by European and American countries, so Tanaka can't figure out why Duan Yun chooses this product to set up a joint venture factory.

In fact, in Tanaka's view, it may be more reliable for Duan Yun to choose a joint venture with Toshiba to produce color TVs, because Toshiba's color TVs have always been in short supply in China, so it would be easier for Duan Yun to choose a joint venture to produce color TVs Profitable.

"Every country has its own national conditions. The reason why I choose to produce flash memory chips is because I think this kind of product will have a big market in mainland China. Of course, this intuition may not be correct, but from my personal point of view. There has always been strong interest in this chip product.”

It is impossible for Duan Yun to directly say what products he uses this flash memory chip for, because if Toshiba realizes the important value of this flash memory chip, they may not choose to set up a joint venture factory in China...
