Chapter 1476 Globalization

In mid-January, Duan Yun and his team flew back to Shenzhen.

Although it has not received a single order, Tianyin Group can be regarded as showing its talents among the world's technology companies. During this exhibition, Duan Yun had preliminary contacts with many European and American technology companies, except for IBM Texas, which he visited in Shenzhen earlier. Instruments, as well as HP, AMD, some small and medium-sized technology companies in Europe and the United States also took the initiative to contact Tianyin Group through this exhibition, and showed a certain interest in Duan Yun's company.

In fact, these European and American companies did not regard Tianyin Group as a real competitor. The reason why they took the initiative to show their favor to Duan Yun was due to the communication among peers, and the most important thing was their strong understanding of the Chinese mainland market. Interested, because before they always thought that the Chinese mainland was a desert for technology companies, and companies like Duan Yun were able to develop, which really surprised them. Many companies also hope to expand the market in the Chinese mainland by cooperating with Tianyin Group.

There are many technology companies in Europe whose technology does not have much market in developed countries in Europe and the United States, or is simply unprofitable, but in the third world countries, they can obtain huge profits. This is the real reason why they pay so much attention to Tianyin Group reason.

And Duan Yun is also very interested in the olive branches thrown by these European and American technology companies. The main reason is the globalization of economy and technology.

The so-called globalization refers to the unimpeded flow of capital, personnel, science and technology around the world.Different countries have different understandings of globalization, a trend that has begun since the 80s.

Economic globalization is a very good idea.The starting point of its economics is Adam Smith's "division of labor" theory.Adam Smith once spoke highly of the role of the division of labor in the economic process, believing that it is an important way to increase production capacity.Economic globalization means the division of labor in the world.

Different countries and regions in the world have different allocations of labor, natural resources, technology, capital, etc., and their respective advantages are also different.Looking at the economic development of the whole world in the way of economic rationalism, we can understand it as a "global game of chess".According to the advantages of different countries and regions, optimal distribution is carried out, so that the advantages can be fully utilized, thereby bringing the greatest benefits to all mankind.

In the past, European and American companies produced almost all their products in China from technology research and development to production and sales, and exported a small amount of them. However, as the labor costs in European and American countries became higher and higher, many multinational companies began to transfer some technologies and factories to cheaper labor costs. other countries, so as to obtain the maximum profit.

In addition, many products today, especially high-end products, require a lot of parts, and in order to make the products the best and the lowest cost, it is necessary to adopt technologies and parts from other countries, thus gradually forming a globalization This is also a trend in the development of world enterprises.

The current level of science and technology in mainland China is still relatively backward, but the labor cost is very cheap. In addition, the market in mainland China is very huge, and a population of 10 billion is a very scary base. With the reform and opening up entering the 12th year, the purchasing power of mainland China is also increasing. Because of this, technology companies in Europe and the United States are increasingly interested in mainland China.

Moreover, Tianyin Group is not an ordinary Chinese company. When it developed NAND flash memory chips, it caused a sensation in the American technology circle. In addition, Tianyin Group has a huge production capacity and sales network. Such capabilities can make many advanced technologies and The products are quickly realized, and it is precisely because of this that Duan Yun has become a "sweet pastry" in the eyes of these European and American companies.

Originally, most of the European and American manufacturers participating in this exhibition did not know the strength of Tianyin Group in mainland China. It was Li Yun and Liang Mengsong who actively accepted interviews and publicity in front of the American media, which made Tianyin Group quickly gain popularity. .

After nearly half a month of trip to the United States, more than 20 American technology companies have shown strong interest in Tianyin Group and expressed their intention to visit China. Duan Yun has also extended invitations to them one by one.

For a long time, although the strength of Tianyin Group is not bad, its international influence is very weak. Although it has purchased the authorized patent of NAND flash memory chips before, it has never been in the core "friend circle" of these multinational companies. It is difficult to get a share of the international electronics market.

However, the globalization of science and technology economy has brought great opportunities to Duan Yun. If he can seize the opportunity and become an important link in the entire international division of labor industrial chain, then Tianyin Group can truly realize the strategy of "going out" and eventually become An important "big player" in the global technology market.

In terms of technical strength, Duan Yun is definitely inferior to those multinational technology companies in Europe and the United States, but he also has a huge bargaining chip in his hand, that is, the strong production capacity and sales network in mainland China. If foreign technology companies want to take advantage of cheap labor in mainland China Or relying on the Chinese market to make money, Tianyin Group is a very powerful partner. Duan Yun can use these bargaining chips in his hands to exchange some interests with foreign companies, such as advanced equipment and patented technology, which is different from the current The policy of exchanging technology for markets adopted by reform and opening up countries is completely consistent, except that Duan Yun operates this model through his own enterprise.

Throughout the 80s, through opening up to the outside world, mainland China did obtain many advanced technologies from developed countries in Europe and the United States, which made great progress in the national industrial system. However, most of these technologies are second- and third-rate or even obsolete technologies, the core of the real top Technology will not be handed over to China from abroad.

If Duan Yun wants to obtain these truly top-notch technologies, the current strength of Tianyin Group alone is not enough. He can only obtain some relatively good technologies and equipment. If Duan Yun wants to obtain top-notch technologies, Duan Yun must also have his own top-notch Technology is exchanged with others, and only in this way can he obtain the best patented technology authorization and truly integrate into the global industrial chain and technology chain.

The so-called patent exchange is "exchanging patents for patents", which means that enterprises exchange their own patented technologies and proprietary technologies for the use of foreign patented technologies and proprietary technologies.

Just like in later generations, when Huawei entered the mobile phone industry, it had conducted patent exchanges with companies such as Qualcomm and Apple. The company brings in huge profits.

And the premise of all this requires that both parties have sufficient technical patent accumulation after the patent conversion. The more technology is done, the more voice can be obtained in the negotiation...
