Reinventing the Millennium.

Chapter 727 Suggestions (Two in One)

"Old Ni, when will your Changhong change?"

"If nothing else, early April."

In other words, there is still more than a month.

On the one hand, Fang Zhuo was saddened by the retirement of his old friend, and on the other hand, he went through the matter in his mind again.

In fact, he and Changhong have no personal interests, neither investing in shares nor benefiting from stocks, but in terms of company affairs, both parties are considered a win-win situation.

Not to mention Changhong, a considerable part of Bingxin’s production capacity is allocated to TV chips, and the e-commerce project of Yigou also has a very good cooperation performance. In particular, the former is because Changhong took the lead in trying the chip solution of Morningstar Semiconductor. Moved the market of domestic manufacturers.

But having said that, it is not necessary to hold on to Changhong now.

Bingxin + Morningstar Semiconductor has been recognized by manufacturers through product strength, and Tesco also sells TVs from anyone else.

If Changhong really wants to disregard justice, disregard the feelings of its partners, and really feel that Mr. Fang was forcibly tied into the car at the beginning, then it doesn't matter, just cut it.

Fang Zhuo thinks that everything that should be done has been done, even if Zhang Xuebin faces failure this time, there is no need to go to war for it.

"Old Ni, to be honest, do you think Mr. Zhao is suitable to take over your position? It seems that he has put in a lot of hard work, and this time he can put down his face and come to Luzhou to find me. I respect your opinion."

Ni Runfeng on the other end of the phone thought for a while, ignored Mr. Fang's hypocrisy, but pondered his real attitude, and said: "The cooperation between Meiling and Changhong is very good, and Changhong's technical strength is second to none in China. It's better for Zhang Xuebin to keep going."

He took the initiative to suggest: "Since the board of directors of Meiling has released the signal, and everyone has received the signal, then overseas companies can also use Meiling's products. If it succeeds, there is no way."

The competition in the domestic TV market is fierce, and Changhong's overseas supply channels have been maintained well after being taken over by Yike, gradually getting out of the original haze.

This is also the few chips that Fang Zhuo can exert.

In this way, once the chips are raised, it is the final statement, and if you want to cut it, cut it thoroughly.

"Since you are so determined, even Old Ni, then do as you wish." Fang Zhuo said, "I'll just disappear from Mr. Zhao's side."

Ni Runfeng asked: "When you return to China, do you want to visit Sichuan Province?"

Fang Zhuo pondered: "It's easy to get poked in the spine, forget it, it's better not to pressurize, the matter is on the table and let them weigh it themselves."

Ni Runfeng sighed in his heart, but he also knew that Fang was always the one who could best bear the consequences of the separation between the two. Zhang Xuebin could not be promoted, Meiling would lose some technical capabilities, and Changhong would lose Meiling and overseas channels, but Meiling's LCD strategy was advancing very well. , the most injured will still be Changhong.

He didn't say much, this time the initiative was indeed not on his side.

"Mr. Fang, there is another matter. I think it is necessary to tell you." Ni Runfeng mentioned another matter and said bluntly, "Morningstar Semiconductor is very good. They surpass other companies in terms of design and service. If Yes, Ice Core should probably increase the price of Morning Star."

"Huh? Tell me in detail." Fang Zhuo obviously paid more attention to it. This is the actual feedback from the first-line customers.

Reasonably speaking, he was also very surprised by Morningstar Semiconductor's strategy for the domestic manufacturer market. Despite Changhong's attempt and the lead of the "TV Eight Heroes", the speed of adoption by major manufacturers is still a bit beyond expectations.

Ni Runfeng said seriously: "There is nothing to go into detail. Morningstar's chip performance and adaptation are better, and their service impressed me even more. Once at about twelve o'clock in the night, my text message about the product was actually on the I got a very detailed reply within half an hour."

"Morningstar has targeted optimization for several manufacturers, which was hard to imagine before."

"Whether Philips or Texas Instruments, they will never show such a service attitude."

"Mr. Fang, you also know how big the LCD TV market is. Morningstar is now gradually covering domestic TV manufacturers. If you wait until the LCD market expands further, it will not be so easy for you to think about Morningstar."

Ni Runfeng gave a very strong suggestion.

"Old Ni, do you think so highly of Chen Xing?" Fang Zhuo was surprised.

"No matter in terms of the development trend or what it actually shows, I think what I said is more objective, and may even underestimate it." Ni Runfeng said calmly, "So, if it is really necessary, now is the best time .”

Fang Zhuo heard what Lao Ni meant, so he had to take advantage of the opportunity when Morningstar Semiconductor was making efforts to domestic manufacturers but the momentum was not yet achieved.

He said with some hesitation: "Morningstar is an enterprise of Baodao, and Bingxin has actually invested 5% of the shares."

The 5% share is not much, and it is a symbol of the in-depth cooperation that the two parties finally negotiated when Morningstar took advantage of the development last time.

Fang Zhuo thought for a while, and said in a deep voice, "This is not very good."

This seems to be easier to poke the spine.

Ni Runfeng chuckled, knowing how much Mr. Fang attached to Bing Xin, he said lightly: "Mr. Fang, this is just a suggestion of mine."

Fang Zhuo stopped talking.

Ni Runfeng suddenly felt refreshed, he could feel Mr. Fang's feeling of "dominating people", which is great, no wonder...

He can almost be sure that Mr. Fang will definitely attack!
If Mr. Fang further researches the market situation of Morningstar, he will find that the development and prospects of Morningstar are even worse than what he said. In the future, it may even face competition in the global LCD TV chip solution market.

For now, competitors around the world are relatively slow, which is a good opportunity.

"Okay, I'll think about it again." Fang Zhuo responded slowly, intending to pay more attention to the affairs of Morningstar Semiconductor after returning to China.

"That's it. If possible, I still hope that Changhong and Meiling can develop the LCD market together." Ni Runfeng only mentioned his expectation at the end, "Their cooperation will be a win-win situation."

Fang Zhuo let out a "hmm" and ended the call with the old man who was about to retire.

Because Yu Hai was on leave to watch the Winter Olympics in Turin, he wrote down Lao Ni's analysis and judgment on Morningstar Semiconductor in a small notebook, and then contacted Zhang Xuebin to arrange the overseas channels of Meiling Electric.

Zhang Xuebin also knew that the situation had reached a critical moment, so he talked about Meiling's strategy for combining online and offline channels in the future, without mentioning e-buy, but every sentence was e-buy.

Fang Zhuo didn't have any fluctuations in his mind, but he thought about the future of intelligence. If Morningstar can dominate the LCD era, I am afraid that it will continue to occupy a share in the development of smart TVs.

If smart TV chips can be designed, can smartphones provide experience?

Is to increase holdings or find ways to acquire?

This is a question to think about.

Fang Zhuo made a lot of marks in his heart. If there is such a long-term development, Lao Ni will make a contribution.

Zhang Xuebin talked eloquently on the phone, but only got a few words from Mr. Fang, such as "um", "not bad", "should pay attention to it", and couldn't help but sigh that Mr. Fang is Mr. Fang, and his stable bearing is extraordinary.

He also calmed down from some excitement, and seriously described his communication with Changhong.

Fang Zhuo listened for a while, and finally ended the call after expressing his confidence in him.

It was a bit late, and I didn't go out again at night.

When Su Wei and Yu Hong came back after chatting, she saw Mr. Fang's expression when she entered the room.

"What? Is there a phone in China?" Su Wei asked with a smile.

Fang Zhuo was surprised: "How did you guess that?"

"As soon as you enter this room, the desk becomes the conference table of Hang Lung 23, and the pajamas on you seem to become a suit." Su Wei talked about her feelings, and sat on the sofa, "I can't help but want to Report to President Fang."

Fang Zhuo laughed.

"Our President Yu thinks that the potential of Yike Overseas under her leadership still has not been realized." Su Weizhen reported the communication situation that seemed public and private, "So, she declined the offer from me, the director. suggestion."

Both Su Wei and Yu Hong are members of Yike's board of directors.

Fang Zhuo nodded slightly, but did not comment.

"You don't seem surprised?" Su Wei looked at the man in front of her.

"Eco is a successful company, but now it has the opportunity to become great." Fang Zhuo commented succinctly, "It is undoubtedly a big challenge to realize this opportunity, but she is willing to try."

Su Wei said with a smile: "Hurry up, talk more."

Fang Zhuo said without changing his face: "However, business challenges are everywhere, such as e-commerce will profoundly change everyone's life, how to compete with powerful international giants, how to fight with domestic counterparts, this is very important. Test the wisdom, ability, courage and vision of managers."

He continued: "When it comes to this, I have to say that Ms. Su Weisu, one of the representatives of Huaxia e-commerce, will break the traditional business model and promote rapid changes in consumption, logistics, and productivity. "

Su Wei said leisurely: "Mr. Fang speaks really nicely."

"It's all from the bottom of my heart." Fang Zhuo said seriously.

Su Wei smiled but said, "If you say that, then I will believe it."

She shook her head slightly: "Tomorrow will be the closing ceremony. I took a vacation, and suddenly I feel that this is very good. If she can come back to take over e-buy, I can relax a lot."

"The company has been resting for nearly two weeks, and nothing major has happened in the company. It fully proves that as long as it is on the right track, it can run well. Everyone is very capable." Fang Zhuo said, "It's good to be good at employing people."

Su Wei doesn't want to discuss the company's affairs anymore.

She got up, poured tea, and said: "Tomorrow, you need to discuss work with her, maybe she will listen to you."

Fang Zhuo laughed and said, "How come?"

"Try it." Su Wei put the teacup on the desk, "I went to chat with my aunt, and I will buy some gifts tomorrow."

She walked out of the room, leaving Mr. Fang room to think.

The next day.

Fang Zhuozhen and Yu Hong discussed the next job issue.

He asked, "Mr. Yu, are you going back to China?"

Without thinking, Yu Hong said, "I won't return."

"Don't mix personal factors," Fang Zhuo said.

"You have so many things to do, how can you be more mother-in-law than Weiwei? Where is the financial media you are looking for? Wait until you return to China to startle the snake?" Yu Hong said impatiently.

"This isn't a vacation. In the afternoon, I'll find someone from Bloomberg. They should have reporters in Italy," Fang Zhuo said.

"Does it exist in Turin? Can it have influence?" Yu Hong asked.

Fang Zhuo replied: "Someone must have come to report on the Winter Olympics. Bloomberg Society helped. I am a distinguished VIP member of his family."

Yu Hong knew about this. There was a matter of a New York congressman looking for Yi Ke, and it naturally subsided after recharging Bloomberg, which was backed by the mayor of New York.

She raised her eyebrows: "Alright, I'll go back to New York the day after tomorrow to see if I can see what's going on with Apple."

Fang Zhuo chatted with her about Yike's mobile phone project.

After the two cups of tea were finished, he finally mentioned the matter of returning to China: "The company's business is endless. If the focus of mobile phones is on the right track, it will gradually shift to China. It is not impossible to return to China, otherwise, every year and holidays ,I always……"

Fang Zhuo wanted to say "I can't bear it", but felt that the word was not appropriate, so he didn't say it.

"Look again, at the very least, whether it is the development of the Android system, the setting of the R&D center, or the recruitment of talent experts, New York has more advantages. The advantage is bound to be greater." Yu Hong said lightly, "'Getting on the right track' is easy for you to say, but it is still difficult to do."

She sighed again: "As for the New Year's Eve, when I receive your text messages during the New Year, New York is still daytime, and at night, I searched for the moon in the sky for a long time, only to find that there is no moon at all on New Year's Eve. , it's okay."

Fang Zhuo was silent for a while, then said, "That's good."

He picked up the teacup: "I have full respect for Mr. Yu's contribution in Yike."

Yu Hong glanced at Mr. Fang: "It's not enough to pay respects. I want a budget and domestic support."

"Write it in the email for discussion." Fang Zhuo drank tea by himself.

"Remember to be strict with Yu Hai, don't joke around with him." Yu Hong said something trivial.

Fang Zhuo responded, and talked about his itinerary for New York in the middle of the year.

In the afternoon, the reporters from Bloomberg who reported on the Winter Olympics really came to serve the VIP members. Although they were sports reporters, they would transfer their general interviews to the financial department.

Fang Zhuo talked enthusiastically about the business performance of Yike Company in the past year, and said that he would continue to provide consumers with better services in the music field.

In addition, he talked seriously about the company's business expansion, and mentioned his iPhone plan for mobile phones.

Bloomberg reporters recorded the whole process, and this can spread on Wall Street in about three or four days.

In the evening of February 2, Fang Zhuo watched the grand closing ceremony of the Turin Olympic Games with his family and friends, and listened to Pavarotti's "Nessun Dorma".

For [-] days, this is the longest vacation that Fang Zhuo has rested since he started his business.

Generally speaking, this is a rare relaxation on the mental level, and it also made him feel that he has accumulated a lot of strength when he returns to China.
