Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 1881 Victory Corporation
JVC came to China faster than Duan Yun imagined. Almost on the third day after Tianyin Group issued the invitation letter, they sent a team of 3 people to visit China.

This time Duan Yun still sent a luxury motorcade to greet him outside Baiyun Airport, but this time he did not go there in person, but asked his assistant Guo Kai and an interpreter to greet him, while Duan Yun himself was having a meeting in the company.

In the JVC team that came to China this time, the team leader was a middle-aged man named Ozawa Ichiro, in his early 40s. He is currently serving as the deputy director of the business department of JVC. The technical team composed of electronic experts, with an average age of about 4 years old, should be the technical backbone of their department.

Although JVC is well-known internationally, it is rarely known in China. A large part of the reason is that it mainly focuses on R&D and production of electronic components. Because Toshiba holds 1/3 of JVC's shares, they have always been It is the main component supplier of Toshiba products, and many components of domestic Toshiba Electric come from JPC.

From this point of view, JV C actually belongs to a kind of upstream technology company. They develop technology and produce parts. They are electronic parts suppliers for all Japanese and even many American companies. Not being well-known in China is also a normal thing.

But in any case, as an upstream electronics company, JVC’s technical level must not be underestimated. To some extent, it is the same as Tianyin Group. The various chips produced by Tianyin Group are the only chip suppliers for many domestic manufacturers. , and has been firmly occupying the most upstream, but compared to JVC, Tianyin Group has its own products and brands, which is more comprehensive than JVC.

Unlike the former president of Sony, Fukai Taino, after Ichiro Ozawa came to the village, Duan Yun directly arranged them to a high-end hotel in Shenzhen, and then arranged a meeting and a visit to the factory the next day.

The reason why there is such a difference in treatment is also very simple, because the team sent by JVC this time is much lower level, and JVC itself cannot be compared with Sony, so Duanyuan just treats it as an ordinary foreign company.

On Thursday morning, the car of Ichiro Ozawa's team arrived at the gate of Tianyin's headquarters slowly, and Duan Yun led his management team to greet him. The scene seemed very simple.

"Hello, Mr. Duan!" After Ichiro Ozawa got out of the car, he immediately recognized Duan Yun standing in the crowd at the door, and immediately walked over with a smile on his face.

"Welcome, welcome!" Duan Yun was also smiling at this time, and stretched out his hand to Ichiro Ozawa.

After the two exchanged a few simple greetings, Ichiro Ozawa and his party were immediately brought to the meeting room of Tianyin's headquarters.

"Duan Jun, I am very glad to be invited by your company this time to visit your company. We have also conducted a comprehensive understanding of Duan Jun and your company. I think Duan Jun is a very Excellent Chinese entrepreneurs deserve our respect." In the conference room, Ichiro Ozawa made some opening remarks with a smile, and then continued: "Our Victory Organization is an old technology company established in 1927. It once produced Japanese We also invented the VHS format home tape. As early as 1, our company has already started business with China. Now we have an office in BJ, and we have always been committed to the friendship between China and Japan. And the exchange of product technology between the two countries..."

JVC is the international English abbreviation for Japan Victory Corporation, so when Ichiro Ozawa introduced himself, he must have called himself Victory Corporation.

"Thank you very much for your company's visit to our Tianyin Group..." Duan Yun smiled slightly, and continued: "Actually, I know a little about your company. Your Victory Co., Ltd. has indeed had a very high influence in the industry. , before our domestic video recorders all used your company's technology, from this point of view, it is really admirable."

"It is also very admirable that Duan Jun's company can develop so well in China, especially your company's chip industry has reached a very high standard in the industry, which is not easy. "When I said this, Ichiro Ozawa's tone was somewhat admirable, and he continued: "In addition, I also heard that your company's new generation of audio-visual products VCD is very popular in China, and its annual sales have reached 10 billion. Renminbi, this is a very astonishing figure..."

"Correction." Duan Yun interrupted Ichiro Ozawa with a smile, and continued: "The domestic sales of our company's VCD products were 30 billion yuan last year, and this year it may exceed 100 billion yuan. Of course, this point Compared with the products of your Shengli registered company, there is still a big gap in sales..."

The reason why Duan Yun corrected Ozawa Ichiro’s statement was not out of showing off, but because he knew that JVC’s visit to China this time should be for the VCD patent matter, so the higher the sales, the more Duan Yun will be in the future. The more room for quotation, after all, the annual sales of 10 billion and 100 billion are completely two-level products, and the difference is still very big.

"It's amazing!" Ozawa Ichiro praised, and then said: "Then I want to ask Mr. Duan, besides China, do you have sales partners overseas for your VCD products?"

"Not currently, because our Tianyin Group has always been based in China. Although we have been working hard to expand overseas markets in the past two years, the results are not very satisfactory..." Duan Yun pondered for a while, and then said: "But I think VCD is It is a very good product, and it is also an international product, I believe we can find a suitable international agent in the future to promote this product to the world.”

"This is not an easy task." Ozawa Ichiro smiled slightly, and continued: "Good products also need good marketing channels. Only in this way can we open up a wider market. I think Mr. It is very difficult to open up the international market. Back then, our Japanese companies spent more than ten years or even decades in order to gain a foothold in the United States and Europe, consuming a lot of human, financial and material resources. The difficulty is no less than developing an epoch-making product..."

"Then... I wonder if Mr. Ozawa has anything to teach you?" Duan Yun asked after hearing the words.

"I think transnational development is essentially a kind of international cooperation. Just like the Buddhist scriptures, what you give up, you will get. Only those who know how to give up can get more things." Ichiro Ozawa said with a smile.
