Chapter 665
"Brother-in-law, why did you sell our Jiangnan Optoelectronics again?" Leng Zhimeng, who came back from Sony and learned about the negotiation process from Boss Huang, said very dissatisfied.

Indeed, the front foot gave Nintendo a 10% discount, and the back foot gave Sony a [-]% discount.Let alone Nintendo, there was no business cooperation with Jiangnan Optoelectronics before, but Sony has occupied nearly [-]% of the market share of Jiangnan Optoelectronics. In this case, the loss of profits of Jiangnan Optoelectronics this year will be very painful. .

"Selling one thing is naturally to get another thing." Boss Huang smiled. "Besides, we have not lost money. Jiangnan Optoelectronics has launched two new production lines last month. These two production lines are specially developed for black gold. The production line can reduce the production cost of black gold by 60%, coupled with the packaging production line of the two chips we imported, the cost of storage chips in the future can be reduced by more than 80%.”

"So even if I gave them a 4% discount, I still have more than double the profit!" Huang He said with a smile, "In addition, it will take another 1 to 2 years at most until the immersion lithography machine is fully put into production. , In the future, the traditional storage chip technology will be able to break through in an all-round way. At that time, all the current storage chips will be at the price of cabbage. In the future, the price may be less than [-]% of the current price. I will cut the price in advance!"

"But we have lost two years of money, right? Sony's IPs are not worth that much money. At most, their IPs are just entering our blind box business. They are piecemeal and can't earn back what we let Save the profit!" Leng Zhimeng said angrily.

"5 days ago, Netflix, which I bought in the United States, has officially completed the asset restructuring and has become a subsidiary of Jiangnan Group! Jiangnan is also a subsidiary of our Jiangnan Group!" Boss Huang said flatly, " This news was announced yesterday, but it was announced to the American market, and the procedures are also handled there, so I don’t think Sony and the others will know this news in a short time! But Netflix is ​​indeed already a member of the Jiangnan Group subsidiary."

"Netflix? It's the one that rents the discs!" Leng Zhimeng stared, "So, in the future, Netflix can sell Sony's film and television copyright works at will, without paying any copyright fees!"

"That can make a lot of money!" Leng Zhimeng felt as if she understood her brother-in-law's idea, which was to use these copyrights to make profits in the film and television industry.

You should know that according to the same agreement that Jiangnan Group and Sony are about to sign with Nintendo, as long as the companies under Jiangnan Group can use Sony's IP and copyright authorization at will.

Therefore, as Netflix, a subsidiary of Jiangnan Group, all Sony movies can be used at will and rented out to users, which can indeed save a lot of copyright costs.

And if Netflix can become bigger and stronger and become the largest disc rental company in the United States, it seems that it will become very possible to pay back.

"But we are still losing money!" Leng Zhimeng still felt a little dissatisfied.

"I increased Netflix's capital by US$10 billion last month, of which US$8 million was used to purchase an absolute holding of more than 50% of the shares, and another US$2 million was used to develop and invest in a new website !” Huang He added.

"What website?" Leng Zhimeng was stunned for a moment, then blinked and asked.

"A website dedicated to broadcasting videos!" Boss Huang said lightly. He didn't say much about the specific news, but Leng Zhimeng instinctively felt that this website might be very powerful in the future.

"But in fact, these are incidental things, not my real purpose!" Boss Huang said with a smile, and at the same time patted Leng Zhimeng's head and smiled.

"The real purpose?" Leng Zhimeng slapped Boss Huang's slap open, then she thought for a while, then shook her head and said, "Brother-in-law, don't worry about it, tell me quickly, what is your real purpose?" Bar!"

"Hey! Let me ask you, have you read Sony's financial report?" Boss Huang asked back.

"No..." Leng Zhimeng shook her head.

"I didn't watch it either..." Boss Huang chuckled, "But I know that Jiangnan Optoelectronics currently only accounts for 12% of the global storage chip market, but Sony's memory chips account for 13% of the entire market. The market share is 1% more than our market share!"

"..." Leng Zhimeng was stunned for a moment, and then showed an expression of sudden realization, "Brother-in-law, you are trying to completely destroy a competitor!"

----------

The next morning, Kuragi Ken returned to the company. When it was close to the noon lunch break, he was notified and went to the chairman's office to meet the current chairman of Sony, Nobuyuki Idei.

Along with Shinichi Idei are his old superiors, Kazuo Hirai, the CEO of Sony Entertainment, and Xiaozhang Jiangbei, the director of the Electronics Division.And Kuragi Ken was a little surprised that when he entered the office, Xiaozhang Jiangbei was very angry, his eyes stared at Kuragi Ken as if he wanted to eat people, which made him feel kind The feeling of wanting to run away.

"President, please take it back, this decision will ruin our entire electronics business department!" Xiaozhang Jiangbei said excitedly, and he almost punched Nobuyuki Idei's desktop with his fist.

"It's useless for you to tell me these things, this is the decision of the board of directors!" Facing Xiaozhang Jiangbei's anger, Idei Nobuyuki didn't care. It only accounts for less than 2% of the sales performance of the Electronics Division, and I don't believe that if this 2% is destroyed, the entire Electronics Division will be destroyed!"

"On the contrary, with this batch of higher-quality and cheaper chips, the production cost of all products in the Electronics Division will be reduced in the future. As a result, products that have already occupied a dominant position in the market can obtain higher profits. Instead of occupying A market-leading product that can beat our competitors at a lower price."

"Besides, the board of directors didn't say to suspend the production of storage chips. It's just that our group will no longer purchase and use them internally, but they can still be sold externally. This will not have a big impact on the storage chip business."

"I think the profit of the Electronics Division in the second half of this year will at least increase by more than 8% because of this policy. You kid should laugh out loud in your dreams instead of losing your temper at me!" Nobuyuki Idei said with a sneer.

"Hahaha!" Seeing Nobuyuki Idei's smile, Xiaozhang Jiangbei laughed out loud, "Nobuyuki Idei, you actually think this is a good thing, don't you know that once this cooperation is signed, the board of directors will definitely not transfer any R&D If the funds are granted to our storage chip technology, then we will only be pulled further and further away by the Jiangnan Group, and we will forever lose the possibility of catching up with our opponents in storage chip technology, and our business will be over sooner or later!"

"And this is just the beginning. When storage chips are finished, the next one will be various other types of chips. In the end, the entire Sony chip business will be completely destroyed. You will be the No. 1 sinner in Sony's destruction, so you will be destroyed." In the hands of an art student like you, handing Sony over to you is indeed the biggest mistake Sony has ever made!"

"Enough! Get out!" Even Nobuyuki Idei couldn't bear it at this moment. He slapped the table hard and scolded angrily.

"As you wish!" Then Xiao Zhang Jiangbei rolled out very obediently.Only Kazuo Hirai and Ken Kuragi were left hiding aside with their heads down, not daring to speak.

"Hirai, I'm tired, please tell Yoshigi Ken, I'm going to take a rest!" Idei Nobuyuki touched his forehead, and left the office in great pain, leaving only Idei Nobuyuki sighing tone.

"Senior, what happened here?" Ken Kuaragi was single-handedly promoted by Kazuo Hirai, but he was said to be his old subordinate, so his attitude was quite intimate.

"It's not something you provoked!" Idei Nobuyuki glared at Kuragi Ken, and then told the whole story.

Sony's board of directors finally made an unsurprising decision, that is, to cooperate with Jiangnan Group, purchase Jiangnan Group's memory chips at a low price, and exchange IP for costs.

And naturally, because Jiangnan Group's chips are so easy to use and too cheap, the price they bought is more than 1/3 cheaper than Sony's own chips, so the board of directors issued a new order very simply, Let all Sony's internal electronic products use the storage chips produced by Jiangnan Group bought from outside, instead of using the storage chips originally developed by Sony itself.

Just now, the president, Nobuyuki Idei, announced the order of the board of directors to the heads of two departments related to the two companies, Kazuo Hirai and Jiangbei Xiaozhang.

Then Xiao Zhang Jiangbei completely exploded. He said that this order is an order that will destroy the entire Sony.Because the storage chips produced by Sony are already relatively expensive, if it were not for the presence of Sony's brand there, there would have been no market sales, and it would be impossible to occupy a 13% market share.

But now, if Sony does not use Sony's own chips internally, it is conceivable that even if there will not be a lot of fluctuations in the external market, Sony itself may not allocate funds for storage chips. His career will definitely be completely ruined.

Then Xiaozhang Jiangbei exploded, and the above scene happened.

"The chairman really did not think about it, and it will really ruin the electronics business department!" Ken Kuragi said, shrugging his shoulders.

"Hehe, do you know how bad the chairman is these days? The company has been losing money for two consecutive years under his leadership, and the financial report is getting worse every year. The board of directors has already sent the intention to fire him and replace the new president. It's gone. It's just that they haven't found a successor yet, so they just let it go."

"Now Nobuyuki Idei still wants to save himself, and his only chance is to make Sony profitable immediately. As long as Sony can make a profit, then everything else is not a problem."

"In fact, Sony has lost less than 2 million U.S. dollars this year. If the 2 million U.S. dollars can be recovered from production costs, then Nobuyuki Idei's goal of making a profit this year will be achieved, and he will also be able to reverse his position in the board of directors. image of!"

"So this time the contract will definitely be finalized, even if the entire electronics business department is ruined in the future, but for the chairman, as long as this year's financial report is positive, that's enough!"
