Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 1951
Because the meeting is not over yet, Duan Yun still needs to wait for a while.

Originally thought that the next afternoon's meeting should have a result, but to Duan Yun's surprise, he did not wait for Wu Zhenglong's call until the evening.

In desperation, Duan Yun took the initiative to call his brother-in-law, but the reply he got was that this afternoon's meeting was temporarily canceled and he planned to hold it another day.

Such a result made Duan Yun suddenly feel a little nervous, because based on his experience in state-owned enterprises, the sudden cancellation of the originally scheduled important meeting was either due to some special unexpected reasons, or the relevant leaders who organized the meeting were preparing to operate in secret .

Judging from the current situation, the two forces that support and oppose the promotion of the operating system developed by Tianyin Group can be said to be evenly matched. In this case, it is difficult for the leader who chairs the meeting to solve the problem quickly through this kind of meeting. It may be to negotiate in private, make some compromises with each other, and finally come up with a solution acceptable to both parties.

In other words, the game about this matter has begun to turn from the open to the underground. The current situation can result in any outcome. It depends on whether the Poly Group and Li Yunpeng's family connections will go all out. The Chinese Academy of Sciences It is almost impossible to compromise, because he represents the interests of more than a dozen key scientific research units in the capital. Once this failure occurs, the prestige of these leaders of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in the BJ scientific research circle will be greatly weakened.

Duan Yun could only stay in BJ for a long time, but at this moment, Duan Yun remembered a long-distance call from the United States on the other side of the ocean.

The one who called him was none other than Li Yun, who was officially authorized by Duan Yun to set up a branch in the United States, and to carry out business cooperation with Sony Corporation of America.

In fact, since Li Yun arrived in the United States, she has faxed almost every day's work content and related itinerary to Shenzhen. However, Duan Yun is not at the Shenzhen headquarters during this period, so Li Yun usually makes a work report like Duan Yun once a week. .

When Duan Yun went to Shenyang, the first person Li Yun met when he came to the United States was Mr. Hu Zhengming. After some exchanges, the two started the follow-up work.

After Duan Yun came to BJ, Li Yun had completed the registration of Tianyin Group in the United States, and rented a three-story office building on the west coast of the United States. This office building used to belong to an American technology company. The group's R&D center in the United States is less than an hour's drive away, with a superior environment and complete hardware facilities, making it a very good office location.

Li Yun signed a five-year lease contract with the landlord at an annual rent of 30 US dollars, and stated in the contract the priority renewal right. In the next step, she plans to redecorate the entire building, and then share some American buildings. Employees, strive to run the entire company in the fastest possible time.

Although this is the first time for Li Yun to set up a new company in a foreign country, this kind of thing is not too difficult for her. On the one hand, it is because she has a good command of foreign languages ​​and has managed many companies in Hong Kong. There is absolutely no language barrier for foreign employees to communicate with Americans, and they are familiar with the American style and way of doing things, so they can be said to be more than capable in terms of employee recruitment and communication.

On the other hand, because of her own experience in managing companies in Hong Kong, she quickly copied the management model of the Hong Kong branch to the United States, and carried out the process based on other American companies in the surrounding area and the current actual situation. Some improvements, so it is completely competent to independently control and manage the new company in the United States.

Moreover, with the help and cooperation of Hu Zhengming and the managers of the Silicon Valley R&D Center, Li Yun is not alone in the United States, and she also quickly adapted to the local environment, which took less than a week , has already recruited more than a dozen experienced managers, and established the preliminary structure of the new company. Next, Li Yun is going to take the newly recruited company managers to New York, contact with Sony’s US headquarters, and jointly formulate the next step. One-step cooperation program.

The Sony Building is located at 550 Madison Avenue in Manhattan, New York City. It has 37 floors and is a skyscraper standing in the center of Manhattan.

The building is open to tourists all year round and free to visit. Although the building has 37 floors, in fact, only the exhibition hall on the first floor can be visited, and the upper floors are their office departments.

The current person in charge of Sony Corporation of America is Ando Guowei, who joined SONY in 1969, became the executive director of SONY in 1979, and became the vice president in 1985. In 1990, he served as the president and chief operating officer of SONY US Engineering and Manufacturing Company.

In the coming year, Li Yun will directly communicate with Ando Kunitake, who will help Tianyin Group to establish a relevant sales network in the United States.

According to the agreement in the contract between the two parties, Anteng Guowei will provide Tianyin Group with a list of Sony's cooperative distributors in the United States, and recommend these distributors to conduct business contacts and cooperation with Tianyin Group. The premise is that Tianyin The products sold by the group in the United States cannot compete with the products distributed by Sony in the United States. That is to say, Tianyin Group cannot sell products of the same technology and type as Sony in the United States, otherwise, the two parties will terminate the cooperative relationship.

In fact, for Tianyin Group, even if Sony did not ask for it, they would not be able to produce the same products that can compete with Sony for the time being. On the contrary, the products that Tianyin Group plans to sell to the United States are all its own unique products, such as VCD And DVD, especially DVD, Duan Yun plans to use this product as a stepping stone to open the US market, and next year, it will be listed in the US first, and the domestic launch will be postponed to the next year. To a certain extent, the domestic profit margin of VCD is reserved.

And for Duan Yun, his focus of development in the next few years has already begun to expand abroad. The company now urgently needs a large amount of foreign exchange and top talents in the world. Those well-known multinational giants wrestled their arms.

After listening to Li Yun's report, Duan Yun was very satisfied. Li Yun did not live up to his trust. The previous work was excellent, and Duan Yun also gave her appreciation and praise.

Just when Duan Yun ended the transatlantic phone call with Li Yun and was about to go out to socialize in the car, the phone rang again, and it was his brother-in-law Wu Zhenglong who called him this time.

"What? You mean that the superior has already made a decision to cancel the scheduled meeting and directly promote the domestic operating system developed by our company as originally planned?" After listening to Wu Zhenglong's narration, Duan Yun asked in disbelief .

"Yes, it is said that a big person directly decided on this matter and notified the leaders of the relevant departments, so the meeting was cancelled." Wu Zhenglong on the other end of the phone paused, and then said: "In the morning, those scientific researchers The person in charge of the institute wanted to discuss this matter with the higher-ups, but they were dismissed within 10 minutes. It is said that the relevant documents have been distributed to all departments. Before the end of this year, some key departments will completely replace your domestically produced ones. operating system……"
