Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 1713 Interview
On the afternoon of the second day after the banquet, Duan Yun accepted an exclusive interview with McCreary, a columnist of the New York Times, and the topic of discussion was the ambition of Chinese technology companies to enter the US market.

"I have always believed that the United States is the center of the world's technological development. Whether it is military or civilian technology, it has come to the forefront of the world, driving the technological development and progress of all mankind..." Facing McCrini's interview, Duan Yun looked calm , I just heard him go on to say: "For a long time, China's science and technology started relatively late, but since the reform and opening up, our China's science and technology has also developed rapidly. This is due to our country's policy support, so that our The company has developed so rapidly, I hope that more and more American friends will come to China for tourism and visits in the future. We are a very hospitable country, and I hope more American technology companies can come to China to invest and cooperate. After all, China is a big country with a population of more than 10 billion, and the market potential is huge..."

Duan Yun knows in his heart that once his interview is published in an American newspaper, it is likely to attract the attention of domestic public opinion. Therefore, in this kind of interview, he must promote China as much as possible, so as to arouse the interest of American companies in the Chinese market. focus on.

"Mr. Duan, how many private entrepreneurs like you are there in China? As far as I know, your China is a socialist country, so you don't allow private enterprises to appear?" McCrenny asked.

"Mr. Reporter, I think your point of view is still stuck more than ten years ago. China is following a market economic system with socialist characteristics. Our country now encourages the development of private enterprises." Duan Yun smiled slightly and continued. : "In the early years, I was a technician in a private enterprise. Later, I started my business. In just a few years, the factory I founded had a scale of hundreds of people, and the annual output value could reach millions of RMB. And there are still many companies like mine in China. The essence of economic development in our socialist country is to liberate and develop productive forces. Now private enterprises are also an indispensable force in the national economic system, so please don’t use the old ones anymore. Some people look at our current enterprises in China..."

"Very good!" McCrini nodded gently.

"I have always believed that the United States has the most advanced technology in the world, while China has the largest population base and the most potential and dynamic market. If your American companies are willing to set up factories in China, you will definitely be able to reap rich returns in the future." Duan Yun After a pause, he continued: "In fact, including American companies, many companies in Europe and Japan have already invested in China a few years ago or even more than ten years ago, and over the years, they have also gained a lot. Huge profits. For example, the German Volkswagen Company came to China to set up a factory as early as 1984. At present, they sold more than 35 Santana cars last year. In the first three months of this year, the sales volume has exceeded It has reached more than 000 vehicles, and it is expected that the annual sales volume of this year may exceed 2 vehicles. This shows that our Chinese market is developing very rapidly. The earlier companies enter the market, the more they can enjoy China's dividends in advance... "

Duan Yun knows in his heart that there is a huge gap in technology between China and the United States. The only thing China can attract American companies is the market. At present, the US and European markets have begun to saturate, and Southeast Asia, Africa and other countries are too small in size, so American companies If you want to expand the global market, China is definitely a place you cannot avoid.

As far as Tianyin Group itself is concerned, if he wants to sell his products to the US market, he must also seek the cooperation of local companies in the US, because the US and China have huge differences in laws and systems, and Duan Yun cannot sell domestic products. That set is moved to the United States for use. If you want to open up the American market in the short term, seeking cooperation from local American companies is the fastest and most convenient way.

It is precisely because of this that Duan Yun tried his best to publicize the huge potential of the Chinese market in the face of McCreney's interview, and at the same time took the opportunity to promote his own company to attract more companies in the United States to cooperate with him.

"As far as I know, Tianyin has previously cooperated with American companies such as IBM, Texas Instruments, and Western Digital. What's your opinion on these companies?" McCreney asked.

“Companies such as IBM, Texas Instruments and Western Digital are internationally renowned multinational giants with very strong technical strength and international influence. It is also an honor for Tianyi Group to cooperate with them. "Duan Yun smiled slightly, and then said: "Compared with these big companies in the United States, our Tianyin Group currently has a big gap in terms of size and technical strength, but our Tianyin Group is based in China and has A very powerful publicity and sales network can sell the same product to various cities or even villages in China in a very short period of time, and there are also a large number of after-sales outlets to ensure the maintenance and after-sales service of the products, so From this point of view, if there are American companies willing to invest in China, Tianyin Group is a good partner and bridge. As for the reputation and reputation of our company, you can ask other American companies that have cooperated with our company before. Enterprises, we Chinese take integrity very seriously..."

At this moment, Duan Yun began to sell melons for the king's wife. At this time, he would definitely not show modesty. After all, Americans don't understand the low-key and reserved nature of Orientals, and they must speak out if they have advantages.

"Mr. Duan, as far as I know, your company has brought a brand new product called VCD to the exhibition in the United States this time. Can you tell us about the performance of this product?" McCreney asked.

McCrenny is still very professional, and he is not ambiguous at all with money. After all, he participated in a luxurious dinner yesterday and accepted 5000 US dollars in chips, so naturally he wanted to help Duan Yun promote their products.

"VCD is the first product of our Tianyin Group. It adopts a new video and audio coding mode, which can be regarded as a revolution in audio-visual equipment." When Duan Yun said this, his face showed a bit of a smile , I only heard him go on to say: "Compared with video recorders, the price of our VCD is much lower, but in terms of performance, it has surpassed some It is an excellent product of the traditional video recorder. In addition, our company plans to use VCD as the main equipment in the next step to develop a brand-new home theater system, so that we can enjoy the audition effect of the movie theater without leaving home. At present, this product is about to We will start exporting, and hope that powerful American companies can cooperate with our group, so that this product can bring laughter to countless American families..."
