Rebirth, I want to be a prince

It wasn't until two o'clock in the afternoon that Shi Lei and Qin Mubei returned the horse to the racecourse, and then drove to the restaurant she had agreed with Louis.From this point of view, Louis is really an interesting person. Although lunch is definitely not a regular meal for a Frenchman, it was already past twelve when he and Qin Mubei came out of the golf course. It is also a little hungry to prepare to eat.But when he saw Shi Lei, he was able to wait in the restaurant for more than an hour in silence, without complaining or even making a phone call to urge him, which would be absolutely impossible in China.

Just imagine if this were replaced by a high-level executive of a domestic telecommunications company, even if he knew that Shi Lei and Qin Mubei had special identities and did not dare to say anything, he would have been very upset when Shi Lei took Qin Mubei away. Even if the Chinese food is not cancelled, he will definitely complain again and again, and he will never help Qin Mubei pull up chairs with great grace after Shi Lei and Qin Mubei entered the restaurant, and immediately eagerly talk to Shi Lei.

"My French is not very good. If you don't mind, Louis, can we talk in English?" Shi Lei could only guess what he meant by a series of French words from Louis.

"Oh, oh, I'm very sorry, I saw that Qin's French is very good, and I thought your French was just as good." Louis immediately changed to English, and repeated Bingcai's words: "Nice to meet you , you need to know, I once pursued Qin very eagerly, but Qin refused to give me a chance, she told me that she already had a boyfriend. In our France, even married women are easily pursued by other men , so I have always held a deep hatred for you. But Bing saw you outside the stadium, and I never wanted to fight you again, not because I was afraid that I might lose you, but because I thought Qin's choice was the right one..."

Shi Lei smiled and nodded: "Can I understand this as your compliment to me?

"Of course, this is a compliment." Louis did not hide his emotions.

"I'm sorry, we haven't seen each other for a long time, so we chatted for a while. Oh, it seems that I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Shi Lei." Shi Lei didn't reveal his identity. He believed that although French people have extraordinarily serious romantic feelings, In business activities, you will never be ignorant, and you will not even be able to figure out the structure of the senior management of your negotiating opponent.

Louis was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed loudly: "So you are Shi! I know the history of Stone Group's development, and this is almost a legendary novel. I know that many of your Chinese companies have relationships with government departments. Quite related, but even so, I still admire you very much. Although I know you are very young from your profile, only people who see you will feel that you are really as young as the profile. Amazing young people!"

"Thank you for the compliment." Shi Lei smiled and was not humble.

Qin Mubei interjected lightly at this time: "Stone Group is not the same as many other companies in China. Our dependence on the government is quite low, including the cross-border agreement that I purchased the right to use your patent a few days ago. For the technical standard of the platform, in order to make this standard a successful replacement for the standard announced this time, our group paid a high price, but did not use the government's administrative departments to intervene.

We are not a company controlled by the Chinese government..."

Hearing Qin Mubei's almost deliberate explanation, Shi Lei suddenly realized that he seemed to have made a mistake. Fortunately, Qin Mubei was there, otherwise his refraining from expressing his opinion on Louis's words might really affect his relationship with him. Result of France Telecom negotiations.No enterprise, or a real commercial enterprise, would like the government's regulation and control measures dealing with government departments. Although it can help the development of enterprises, it will also bring many uncontrollable factors to the development of enterprises.The freedom of the market is one of the most important parts pursued by enterprises, especially European and American enterprises.

"Shi, is what Qin said true?" Louis looked at Shi Lei.

Shi Lei nodded: "Stone Group has a high degree of freedom, and it shouldn't cause any inconvenience to our cooperation with any company. But just referring to the content of our current negotiations, I must admit that our impact on this The power is not that great. In China, the telecommunications industry is a monopoly of the government, and enterprises only participate in it. Including the three representative companies who came to Paris to participate in the ITU 3G standard release meeting, Datang Telecom is the government-run company, but it occupies an absolute dominant position, and we and Huawei are only assisting Datang Telecom."

Qin Mubei seemed to feel that Shi Lei didn't need to speak so clearly, so he couldn't help but glance at Shi Lei, but Shi Lei insisted on being himself, and didn't accept Qin Mubei's hint.

"Then why are you guys here to talk, not Datang Telecom?" Louis didn't show any dissatisfaction with Shi Lei's truth, and seemed to be quite interested in Shi Lei's confession.

Shi Lei smiled and said: "What the government has mastered is more about the formulation and planning of standards. In the end, when it returns to the market, it is still the business that does the work. Mr. Louis, assuming such a premise, you France Telecom are ready to use t -sm standard, and started to prepare for the construction of the test network. Then, do you want the comprehensive solution of the test network to be provided by our Stone Group, or by the Datang Telecom established by the government? "

Louis laughed loudly: "Shi, you are a very powerful negotiating partner, but you can't convince me, how can you be sure that after we reach a negotiation and cooperation with you, you will lead and provide a comprehensive solution? "

Shi Lei shrugged his shoulders, spread his hands and said: "The current situation is more complicated, of course I'm not sure about anything. However, as long as you still want to use the t-sm standard, you must cooperate with our Chinese companies. In fact Even if the cooperation intention is finally negotiated by our stone group, there is still a very high possibility that Datang will be the main solution provider. However, at least if you hand over the contract to the stone group, there will be a chance for a government-influenced Enterprises with a very low level to provide solutions, and your negotiating partner is Datang, then you must be cooperating with Chinese government departments. There are two paths, one has hope for change, and the other has nothing, as far as mine is concerned. As much as you are sure, Mr. Louis might as well choose."

"Hahahaha, Shi, I like you more and more." Louis seems to be smiling all the time, this guy seems to love to laugh, but Shi Lei doesn't feel like he's in his hands just because of Louis's smile, this smile, Could mean anything.

"But what I like is this beautiful lady... Oh, my princess is already very hungry, Mr. Louis, should we have dinner first, there is still a lot of time in the afternoon, we can go back to the Seine River slowly chat."

Louis looked at his watch, and suddenly shook his head seriously: "I have a meeting at 04:30 in the afternoon, and Assistant Bingcai reminded me. I'm afraid I can't talk to you in detail. Last question, last question , After asking, we can start eating."

Shi Lei spread out his right hand: "Excuse me."

"In addition to your Stone Group and Datang Telecom affiliated to the government, Shi, you should know that we also have Huawei as an option. As far as I know, or according to the current situation, Huawei is a powerful Go to a company that is better than you."

Shi Lei nodded: "I admit this point. In terms of corporate strength, Huawei has many advantages over us. But what I want to tell Mr. Louis is that the biggest advantage of Stone Group lies in our way of thinking. This can be seen from the strength of our group. Evidence found in all projects since its establishment. I would like to discredit Huawei, but they are not as creative as us.”

"Creativity is not as good as yours? Then why do they have more technology patents than you? And better!"

"Mr. Louis, creativity is not limited to technical strength. Huawei has been developing for more than ten years, and we have only been on the third network for three years. What proportion of the technical patents we can see at this stage, we analyze it. This is the data. Can’t give an answer. Including this cross-platform technical standard, we even used a technical patent of your France Telecom, but is it because your France Telecom has no ability to redevelop? Obviously not, this is A place that heralds our creativity."

Louis frowned slightly, as if he was thinking about what Shi Lei said about creativity, and then asked: "Shi, do you mean it's like the brand new advertising model created by Shengshi Media under your group?"

Shi Lei smiled, noncommittal, some answers don't need to be said in person, it is often more convincing to let the other party think for themselves.

"Okay, I think we can start our lunch, Shi, you must try the bottle of wine I have here." It seems that Louis really admires Shi Lei, even when they met for the first time, especially It was when he had a meeting two hours later that he actually opened a bottle of old red wine.

When the waiter started to serve them, Louis said another sentence: "Shi, if, I mean if, if we can really cooperate, I hope, you can do your best to become a test network comprehensive Chief provider of solutions, I'm interested to see how far your creativity can go."

"It's a great honor. From the perspective of our own development, of course I think the same way. This requires the joint efforts of both of us!" Shi Lei smiled and turned to look at Qin Mubei. Although Qin Mubei's face was expressionless , but the look at Shi Lei seemed to have many layers of rich meanings.
