As a foreign CEO, Howard Stringer looked at these company executives and said to his assistant:

"Tell me about the difficulties the company is facing!"

Hi! A young man bowed and said:

"As of December 15th, our company has sold 484 TVs in Europa this month, including 36 40-inch LCD TVs and 290 32-inch LCD TVs.

..."

However, this data shocked Sony employees:

"It's impossible, we only sold 484 TVs in Europa in one month!"

You need to know that there are dozens of countries in Europe. Doesn’t this mean that Sony only sells a few TVs in some of these countries?

This is a fart!

However, the assistant ignored the speaker and continued:

"Besides, in Florist, Southeast Asian countries, our Sony TV sales continue to shrink. Taking Florist as an example, as of the 15th of this month, our year-on-year sales have shrunk by 70%!"

As soon as the words fell, the faces of all the participants present - fusion.

Although the TV industry is not considered the core business of Sony, this kind of performance,

It is conceivable that once Sony's "007" financial annual report appears, Sony's stock price is expected to drop slowly.

Even for the sake of Sony's stock price, they are unwilling to take it lightly.

A Sony executive then asked:

"Your Excellency, President, have you found out what caused our sales to drop?"

Hearing this, Howard Stringer clapped his hands, and two people walked in from outside the door.

It's just that two people are carrying a huge TV.

Sony executives were stunned when they saw it.

Because they know that this is not their company's product, because at this stage Sony's TV does not have such a big TV.

As the two moved the TV to the conference room, it was plugged in and connected to a DVD player.

Immediately, the clarity of the picture shocked these proud little days.

"I bought this TV from Europa Britain for only 2199 Euros!"

Howard Stringer said.

"Is such a big TV only 2,000 euros?" A group of executives couldn't believe it.

However, Howard Stringer then said something that surprised them:

"And this TV is the mainland product opposite us!"

"It's impossible, how did the mainland produce such a perfect TV!"

"Yes, many of their electronic components still need to be supplied by us, how can they surpass us!"

"I don't want to believe, President, there is no such technology in mainland China!"

A group of Sony executives simply did not believe it.

In their eyes, the mainland is a technological desert. have always picked up their backward technologies,

Even if the country across the sea is taking off in all aspects,

Many small electronic home appliances have begun to squeeze small life in the domestic market.

However, they still can't imagine that the TV in front of them is a product of the opposite country.

If this TV is a product of Bangziguo, at least they can accept it a little bit.

After all, although Xiaotian looks down on Bangzi Country and thinks that many technologies of Bangzi Country are stolen from them,

But at least with the support of the beautiful country, many areas of the Bangzi country are indeed ahead of their small days.

This is true whether they admit it or not.

For example, the most important aspect of LCD panels for flat-panel TVs is now worldwide,

The most cutting-edge LCD panel companies are the stick duo [Main Star and LG.

Even Sharp, who has always been the top in Xiaotian, can only keep pace with the opponent.

The technologies of Toshiba, Hitachi, NEC, and NEC have all fallen behind.

This was simply unimaginable in the past.

Howard Stringer, however, interrupts these fantasies:

"Do you still not recognize the reality? Even if you don't admit it, this TV is a product of TCL in the opposite country, and this product has already won the Europa Hardware Award, and it is expected to participate in next year's beautiful country Las Vegas Garth's CES!"

"But the president, I know the TCL brand of flower growers. Although their chairman Li Dongsheng bought Hans's Schneider TV last year and formed a joint venture with Thomson, the world's largest consumer electronics company, they probably don't have the technology to produce such products. The product is right!"

Hearing this, Howard Stringer nodded.

"I have already found someone to dismantle this TV, checked the parts, most of them are the technology of our childhood, but the only bright spot of this TV...is this screen!"

"Could it be that this screen is the most cutting-edge product in Bangzi Country?"

"No, according to reports from our staff in the opposite country, this product is produced by a Mercury Super Crystal Company in the capital of the flower planter, and the other party is the only manufacturer of LCD panels with an 8th-generation line or above in the world. !"

Howard Stringer finished.

Everyone in the meeting room gasped.

The people who are doing it are not fools, they all understand what this means.

This means that for a period of time, florists have the monopoly advantage of super-large-size LCDs.

"Isn't that a florist's propaganda?"

Some people still don't believe this. Perhaps the long-term prejudice and discrimination have been deeply imprinted in the minds of people living in small days.

Make them unwilling to believe that all this is true.

However, for Howard Stringer, the first foreign CEO, he has never been as solidified as these days.

"Could it be that the real thing is already in front of you, and you still can't recognize the reality?

The ancient country is rising rapidly, and they have formed a technological squeeze on the small days in many fields,

For example, Superstar's memory, and the high-quality LCD panels now, can't this wake you up? God, I find it hard to understand where your prejudice comes from!?"

Hearing this, the Sony executives here look at me and I look at you, and you all bow your heads in shame.

"I have already sent people to negotiate with Mercury Super Crystal. The best way to buy it is if the other party is willing to buy it, even if it costs more than 10 billion US dollars, we Sony will take over Mercury Super Crystal!"

Immediately, Sony executives were shocked.

Because this price is too outrageous, you must know that building an 8th-generation production line in vain is at most 3 billion US dollars......

Why does the new president want to use 10 billion US dollars to acquire a flower planting company.

However, Howard Stringer says:

"I found out that this company holds a large number of liquid crystal panel patents, and the prospects of many patented technologies are very promising.

If we can win the technology of Mercury Super Crystal, Sony can also have a place in the LCD panel industry in the future,

The current amount of more than 10 billion US dollars may make it difficult for the company in the short term, but please believe that the market potential of LCD panels will be extremely huge, far beyond your imagination!"

It was said that many Sony executives looked at each other.

The biggest headache for Sony has always been that it does not have its own LCD production line.

In many cases, LCD panels need to be purchased externally, and companies such as Toshiba and Hitachi are their first choice.

But the problem is that these manufacturers are getting more and more advanced in LCD panel technology.

So much so that it drags down Sony's advantage in hardware.

However, Sharp LCD's technology is very good. Unfortunately, this company, which is also a small business, does not provide LCD panels at all.

Only use it on your TV.

This made Sony cry father and mother.

In later generations, Sony had to cooperate with Samsung in 2006 for the stable supply of LCD panels.

It is said that it is a cooperation, but Sony is actually taking advantage of it. It spent hundreds of billions of dollars to build an 8th generation line with Samsung.

As a result, Sony has learned nothing about LCD technology.

This production line is often supplied to Samsung Electronics first, and Sony can only be ranked behind Samsung.

Sony dared not speak out about this.

Therefore, seeing the new president this time, he did not hesitate to spend a huge amount of money to acquire Mercury Super Crystal, which has a large number of international patents in the field of LCD panels.

Although many people still have reservations.

However, they did not object.

"Hi!" These people stood up and bowed to Howard Stringer together.

At this time, Sony, on behalf of Eiichi Koinu, brought many people to the Mercury Super Crystal Company in the imperial capital.

When he saw the countless trains in front of the factory building, he couldn't believe it.

This business is too good.

In other words, business is very good.

So much so that Lin Xuan didn't take care of other things this month, and was wholeheartedly busy with Mercury Supercrystal.

And Mercury Super Crystal didn't let him down, it was making a lot of money every day.

He earned 900 million Chinese coins, more than 100 million U.S. dollars, in one month.

Even if you open a banknote printing factory, it is impossible to make money at such a speed.

Of course, those illegal arms trade in secret must be excluded.

On the bright side, Mercury Supercrystal is indeed beyond his imagination.

However, while he was busy, his secretary reported:

"A representative from Sony is here!"

"Sony?" Lin Xuan was taken aback, although as a patriot,

He really hates the little people, but after thinking about it, he decided to meet him,

Find out what it means for Sony to send a representative.
