Rebirth of the Strongest Tycoon

Huo Jianning's anti-provocation attitude undoubtedly annoyed Matsumoto and Demps Jerry.

After the two were silent for a moment, Demps Jerry said coldly: "President Huo, if you think so, then we have no objection!"

Matsumoto didn't say a word, but his attitude showed no doubt.

For a while, the atmosphere in the conference room seemed very depressing.

Huo Jianning glanced at both of them coldly, then suddenly laughed, and the words made Wang Matsumoto and Demps Jerry frowned.

"threaten me?"

"I have to say, you are the typical ignorant and fearless!"

This mocking tone made Demps Jerry irritated. He stood up directly, with a condescending posture as if it could boost his power, and said loudly: "President Huo, you should be the ignorant now."

"I can guarantee that PolyGram International Co., Ltd. will never support the technology of the Tiangong Electronics Group, and other record companies in Europe will also not support it!"

Demps Jerry's gesture annoyed Huo Jianning.

"boom!"

With a cold face, he slapped Demps Jerry with a slap on the table.

"You can't guarantee it!"

"Before telling the big story, weigh your own weight!"

"After reading these materials, I hope you can repeat what you just said again!"

After speaking, Huo Jianning winked at an assistant on the left, who immediately threw the stack of documents he had been holding into Demps Jie.

Then Huo Jianning, who was awkwardly not knowing whether to sit down or continue to stand, Demps Jerry said to the assistant on the right: "Show the file to President Matsumoto!"

The assistant on the right handed the file to Matsumoto's assistant immediately.

Huo Jianning said blankly to Matsumoto Wang: "President Matsumoto, these materials are photocopies. You can take them with you later. Look at them. I'm not in a hurry!"

An extremely bad premonition rose in Matsumoto Wang's heart. Without a word, he took the file in his assistant's hand and scanned it carefully.

Less than five seconds later, his face changed drastically. He suddenly raised his head and glanced at Huo Jianning, who had a calm look on his face, then suppressed the inner vibration and tried his best to stay calm and look down.

Demps Jerry on the side realized that it was not good, and sat down again and looked at the files in front of him.

Similarly, after only watching for a while, his face changed drastically and his thoughts were in confusion.

Looking at the panicked two people, Huo Jianning's mouth evoked a sneer.

If friendly negotiations can't go on, then he will simply show his card.

King fried!

The two of them looked at the information related to the series of record companies they had acquired.

They are the cooperation agreement on CD-ROM format records of seven companies including EMI Records, Virgin Records, Kojima Records, American Epic Records, RCA Group, A& Company, and Universal Music Group.

And a copy of the share certificate of Polygram International Co., Ltd.

Before the cooperation agreement of the seven companies was written, the refusal of Polygram International Co., Ltd. and Columbia Records was not threatening!

The seven record companies have joined together to support the Tiangong Electronics Group, which is sufficient to cover the main market for CDs and support the Tiangong Electronics Group to promote products.

If you think about it more carefully, these seven record companies support the Tiangong Electronics Group, so they will never support Philips and Sony. This is enough to cause a major blow to the two companies.

What's more, there is also a copy of the 35% share certificate of Polygram International Limited.

Just this one copy directly hit Demps Jerry in the face.

Yes, Philips is the largest shareholder of PolyGram International Co., Ltd., but its shareholding ratio is only a little higher. Even if it unites Siemens to suppress the new shareholder Universal Music Group, it cannot be absolutely suppressed.

A veto power alone can prevent most resolutions from being passed.

Philips can make Polygram International Co., Ltd. not agree to support the Tiangong Electronics Group, and then the Universal Music Group behind this equity certificate can also prevent Philips from getting support.

It can be said that the trump card of Philips to promote CD disc technology has been directly abolished!

Seeing Demps Jerry's blue and red face, Huo Jianning was in a great mood.

Time passed slowly.

It was observed that Demps Jerry and Nozomi Matsumoto had read the file.

Huo Jianning Noyu's voice sounded again: "President Matsumoto, President Jerry, do you think our technology can be promoted smoothly?"

These words were like chili water, directly sprinkling salt on the wounds of Demps Jerry and Matsumoto Wang, making them extremely uncomfortable.

But after Huo Jianning made the card, the two of them were completely at a disadvantage, and the preparation plans before coming were all disrupted.

The current situation is beyond their control and decision-making scope. Only when they go back and report to the company, the respective chairman of the board can decide.

Matsumoto hoped to squeeze out a reluctant smile, and said awkwardly: "Unexpectedly, Tiangong Electronics Group has reached cooperation with so many companies in silence. Your company's confidentiality work is really good.

Huo Jianning smiled and said jokingly: "No way, if I don't prepare, now I have a headache..."

Matsumoto Wang smiled awkwardly, and didn't dare to answer the conversation. He was upset and just wanted to leave.

"President Huo, it seems that our first discussion can only end here today. I will bring your company's attitude back and look forward to our real cooperation."

Huo Jianning nodded slightly, took a deep look at Matsumoto, then glanced at Demps Jerry, and said faintly: "President Matsumoto, I only give you five days. The choice is yours. I welcome All partners are also not afraid of any competition!"

"We have reached cooperation with these record companies. No matter what the result is, I will definitely bring the product to the market."

"My attitude, I hope you can tell Mr. Tai Shen and Mr. Akio Morita exactly."

Then he looked at Demps Jerry and said lightly: "President Jerry, I also hope you will inform Mr. Philips as soon as possible."

"These materials, you can take them away!"

After speaking, Huo Jianning made a please gesture.

Matsumoto Wang and Demps Jerry wanted to leave a long time ago, they got up one after another, and after a casual comment, they hurried away with someone.

Of course, in Huo Jianning's view, the two groups fled here completely in despair.

Seeing them disappearing into sight, Huo Jianning's eyes became deep and he sighed quietly for a long time.

In fact, emotionally, he does not want to cooperate with Philips and Sony, nor does he want to pull the two companies together to become the makers of the new data CD standard.

However, from a rational point of view, cooperation with Philips and Sony is more advantageous than disadvantages for the Tiangong Electronics Group. The reason is that the foundation of the Tiangong Electronics Group is shallow, and the internal and external foundations are both shallow!

Sony has decades of technical background and market relationships, not to mention Philips, now the world’s top 500, a giant in the electronics field, has accumulated more than 90 years of technical background and various relationships.

In terms of technical standards, Philips is not only the maker of the CD-DA disc standard, but also the leader of many other technical alliances. Philips shares other interests in common with other companies.

If Philips really wants to take another path with Sony, it can definitely attract a large group of allies to follow, and the scientific research strength of the two companies should not be underestimated. It is absolutely possible to develop another set of standards.

At that time, two camps will be formed, and Tiangong Electronics Group will probably have very few allies in this camp.

Huo Jianning was not absolutely sure of winning, and he did not want to cause trouble to the chairman because of this matter, or even let the chairman waste resources again.

Therefore, although Tiangong Electronics Group has solved the constraints of pushing it to the market, given that the current comprehensive strength of the group is still unable to overwhelm the crowd, he can only focus on stability.

He has now played the trump card. As long as the operators of Philips and Sony are not stupid, they will definitely choose to bow their heads and consider peace.

As for the extent of the "harmony" and how the benefits are distributed, it depends on five days later.

As far as the current situation is concerned, everything is still under his control, and Tiangong Electronics Group has a great initiative!

...

Let’s talk about Matsumoto Wang. After leaving the Tiangong Electronics Group, he almost rushed back to the island nation of Tokyo’s Minato District to meet with Chairman Akio Morita.

After learning of the grim situation, Akio Morita immediately called another founder and chief technical adviser, Shenda I.

Sony Corporation was founded by Akio Morita and Dae Shen.

Akio Morita is good at business management, and Jing Shen Da is a great technology man. He liked to invent when he was in college and won the Outstanding Invention Award at the Paris Universal Exposition at the time by relying on the "dynamic neon light".

Under the combination of the two swords, Sony has flourished and has become an island-based electronics giant in decades.

When I was here, Akio Morita immediately asked Matsumoto to repeat what was about to happen.

After Wang Matsumoto finished speaking, Akio Morita immediately asked: "Jing Shen, you know more about the technical aspects. You have analyzed the samples taken by Tiangong Electronics Group before. We are now avoiding the technology of Tiangong Electronics Group. Barriers, can we develop a second-generation data disc."

Jing Shenda nodded without hesitation and said: "The data disc industry is still in its infancy. As long as enough manpower and capital are invested, it can definitely go another way. However, as Tiangong Electronics Group occupies some technical fields, I want to Avoiding it requires more research and development costs."

"And this also needs to ensure that before we develop the finished product, Tiangong Electronics Group will not be ahead of us in certain technical fields. The more technology is occupied by them, the greater the difficulty and cost of our research and development, and the more we can go. The narrower the road."

"Ideally, how long will it take to develop products of the same level as the Tiangong Electronics Group?" Akio Morita continued to ask.

After thinking about it for a long time, Da Jing Shen said cautiously: "In the case of our alliance with Philips, it is conservatively estimated that it will take more than six months! If the development does not go well, it will take even longer!"

Akio Morita immediately shook his head and sighed: "It's too late, it's too long."

Jing Shenda is also a high IQ person. Although he doesn't care about business, he still understands most of the things.

After listening to Matsumoto Nozomi's account just now, he knew how Morita Akio would choose. The reason why he asked him was nothing more than a little hope.

But unfortunately, he couldn't give Morita Akio this expectation. He always sought truth from facts.

"Mr. Shengtian, this time our technology is behind, and we can only hope that the subsequent technology research and development can produce faster results."

"With the support of so many record companies, now there are no restrictions on the introduction of Tiangong Electronics Group's products and technologies to the market. Neither Columbia Records nor Polygram International Co., Ltd. in which we hold shares can give Tiangong Electronics The Industrial Electronics Group is a fatal threat."

"Even Philips is more powerless than us."

"The CD disc market is still in its infancy, and there is still a lot of room for us to explore. For the time being, it is not enough to spend huge costs in direct confrontation.

"My suggestion is to temporarily compromise with Tiangong Electronics Group and join forces to make this cake bigger."

After speaking, Jing Shenda stopped talking and looked at Akio Morita.

Morita Akio is the chairman. He has already made suggestions. No matter what Morita Akio chooses, he will support him.

After thinking about it for a long time, Akio Morita said decisively: "There is no confrontation for the time being, but we must become one of the new standard setters. This is the bottom line of cooperation, otherwise we will fight a battle!"

"Jing Shen, I will propose to the board of directors to increase investment in the research and development of CD disc technology, and you will need to worry about it later."

Jing Shen smiled and said, "No problem."

The following day, Akio Morita convened an interim board of directors.

At the meeting, Nozomi Matsumoto once again explained the details to all directors, and then Akio Morita put forward his attitude.

In the final result, there is no doubt that Akio Morita's opinion was passed unanimously.

The meeting also decided to continue the negotiation with the team led by Matsumoto Wang.

The bottom line is that Sony must become one of the new standard-setters, technology interchangeable.

As for the dominance of the new standard alliance, Akio Morita does not have extravagant hopes. With the Tiangong Electronics Group having an advantage, it is almost impossible for Sony to steal the dominance of the alliance. Unless Huo Jianning is a fool, obviously Huo Jianning is not...

And the other supporting role-Philips of the Netherlands, although the strength is stronger than Sony, but after Polygram International Co., Ltd., the market trump card was abolished, Philips has fewer options.

After Demps Jerry went back, he reported the situation clearly, and then Philips immediately held a board of directors~www.ltnovel.com~ The final result was that Philips did not want to fight such a battle that had no absolute chance of winning, and planned to continue negotiations, as long as it kept The identity of the setter of the new standards alliance will do.

Soon, the five days Huo Jianning gave him passed in a flash.

Demps Jerry and Nozomi Matsumoto once again led the team to Xiangjiang. The difference is that the negotiating team is larger.

But on the other hand, it also shows that the two companies attach importance to this negotiation.

Negotiations that day took almost a day to finally reach an agreement, and the three companies signed a preliminary letter of intent for cooperation. Philips and Sony fully supported the CD-ROM format standard proposed by the Tiangong Electronics Group.

The new CD-ROM standard is dominated by Tiangong Electronics Group, which serves as the chairman of the Technical Standards Alliance, and Philips and Sony respectively serve as vice-chairmen.

As for the more detailed division of interests, it involves many aspects. The list is full of more than ten pages of A4 paper, which is extremely beneficial to the Tiangong Electronics Group in general.

In terms of technology exchange, Huo Jianning had long asked Dr. Chao Lu to list the technologies in the Tiangong Science and Technology Laboratory that were extremely valuable and urgently needed for the Tiangong Electronics Group based on actual conditions.

In the case of taking the initiative, Tiangong Electronics Group relied on a batch of CDROM format patents in exchange for a batch of equivalent technologies, which gave Tiangong Electronics Group a lot of deep technical background.

After everything was in order, Huo Jianning immediately joined the process of marketization of the CDROM standard.

Philips and Sony are not fools, so he must race against time to grab market share as quickly as possible!
