Winner Takes It All, Resurrection 2009
Chapter 537: The talent of making small things big
"Mr. Li, please forgive me. Roewe Electronics has a lot of things to do and I can't handle it.
And as you know, the negotiations with Google are not going smoothly. We can’t find any HarmonyOS mobile phone system adapters overseas, so we have to start from scratch.
In addition, the driver adaptation and system guidance negotiations of mobile phone component manufacturers are not going smoothly, and system updates based on systems other than Android are also a big problem.”
Fu Yujie's pregnancy has a great impact on Chaoxu Electronics, but He Li is not a jack of all trades. He now has to take care of the channel expansion of Roewe Electronics and contact and manage Qingyun Software.
The newly launched Hongmeng system has been tossed around and crashed. The promotion and application of mobile phone operating systems is never an easy task.
It is a whole system project.
Especially since Roewe is still in the development stage and does not have a complete industrial ecological chain, it may change its cooperation partner one day because the group acquires a more cost-effective parts supplier.
This means that the spare parts supply chain cannot be stabilized quickly, and cooperation in supporting projects for newly launched systems is out of the question, under the premise of low-cost sales in 798.
Ensuring that the company does not lose too much money has become the main goal of Roewe's management. Adding the task of acquiring the supply chain and asking it to provide appropriate drive and guidance is simply a life-threatening task.
He also emphasized the difference between mobile phones and computer systems, because the latter have only a few mainstream standards, either Intel, Asus, or Samsung.
However, there are too many standard suppliers of mobile phone components, and Qualcomm, a major basic communications architecture service provider, has little interest in supporting QingCloud to develop a local system, so the promotion costs have increased sharply.
He Li was exhausted, and now he was asked to take charge of Chaoxu Electronics during Fu Yujie's pregnancy, which was like asking him to die.
Li Zehua had no choice but to turn around and ask Fu Yujie what she thought. The latter was unwilling to give up the management rights that she had finally obtained, but objective conditions did not allow her to promote her own people.
It’s nothing, just not enough qualifications and status.
"You decide. I'm dispensable anyway."
"Crack~"
With a crisp sound, Li Zehua withdrew his hand contentedly, "Speak nicely, I didn't ask you to resign, I just asked someone to help you manage the business temporarily, is it necessary to be so petty?"
For such a large group, wouldn’t it be easy to pick someone to manage Chaoxu?
The question is, will others take advantage of the situation?
It is obvious that Chaoxu Electronics has expanded eight branches across the country in one go. It is not a dream for the total number of employees to exceed one million within two years. It also controls all the electronic business OEM channels of the entire group.
Any system would want to pounce and take a bite, but with Guo Xinyi, He Li, and Fu Yujie guarding the situation, it was extremely difficult for outsiders to exert influence.
But now Fu Yujie is pregnant and has to leave for a short time. Who wouldn’t be tempted by the vacant position?
Li Zehua briefly analyzed the problem and said, "Let He Li take over the position part-time so that there won't be any trouble. It will also be convenient for you to recover and come back to continue managing the business. Otherwise, let's replace him with someone else and have a look when he comes back.
If your subordinates are replaced, or if there is infighting every day during this period, affecting production efficiency, and someone catches you and replaces your people with reason, don't cry."
Fu Yujie would never allow this to happen. Upon hearing this, she shouted angrily, "Don't you have the ability to just sit there and watch others bully me?"
“Please, there are millions of people in the company, and they come to me for everything. Besides, the replacement of a vice president or manager in Chaoxu Electronics cannot even be reported to the board of directors.
Do you think I have nothing to do every day, just staring at Zhao Xu? As for your branch factory general manager, the company has at least 800 if not 1,000 people. Can I keep an eye on him?"
At this point, Li Zehua seemed to be thinking about something. "Why not transfer Zhaoxu Electronics to Qingyun Electronics Group and let Guo Xinyi and He Li help you keep an eye on it?"
Fu Yujie was not willing to do that. "No, I finally got separated from the Electronics Group and became the boss. This is the wealth I prepared for my baby. No one can take it away."
It is said that a mother is strong. Before the child is even born, she is already busy saving money for the family.
Li Zehua had no choice but to propose a few more candidates, but they were all rejected. He simply gave up and said, "Then you tell me, who should be promoted?"
Fu Yujie tried to say a name, "How about Zheng Chunyan?"
"Too low."
Li Zehua shook his head. "The title of assistant to the president has two extra words. Ordinary people will never be able to get rid of them in their lifetime. According to the level, she must first become the general manager of a branch factory or company, and then be promoted to deputy general manager, general manager, and vice president.
There are so many layers in between, even if I force myself to accept my fate, do you think your men will be convinced?"
Thinking back to the tragic fate of running away with the bucket and almost being forced to drink a few mouthfuls of thick soup, he couldn't help but retaliate: "Your ability is not that great, there are so many vice presidents and general managers.
You can't rely on anyone at the critical moment. I really don't know what you usually do in the company."
Fu Yujie frowned and said unhappily, "There's no need to show off your ability. I look at people differently and ability is the most important. If there weren't so many outstanding talents, how could I manage the company?"
When she is around, resources can naturally be integrated and work together. When she is not around, few people can control those arrogant and powerful generals.
To put it bluntly, because of her special status, other managers did not dare to have any extravagant hopes. Anyway, they did their job well and could be transferred to other companies as executives through internal selection, so there was no need to go against her.
"You're right. The key is that there's no suitable person to take over your temporary management. Excellent talents are not valued, and those who want to take advantage of the opportunity to stand out are not qualified."
Li Zehua wanted to retort her, but when he saw Lin Wan looking at him, he instantly realized that he was still in the center of the storm. Even though Fu Yujie didn't say anything, she still had a thorn in her heart.
So I changed the subject and talked about random things until I finally coaxed the two old men to go to rest, but I still couldn't come up with a detailed explanation.
"Chairman, there is actually a suitable candidate. At worst, we can transfer the person in charge of BYD Electronics here to take charge temporarily for a period of time."
One person's plan may take many things into consideration. He had not considered the matter thoroughly, but after discussing it with several group executives, they came up with a suitable solution.
Gu Shijie is adept at the art of balancing. “First, both BYD Electronics and Chaoxu Electronics are in a period of rapid expansion, which means he cannot interfere with Chaoxu’s personnel changes.
Because he is an outsider, the most he can do is to ensure that Chaoxu's business does not go into trouble. They are all insiders in the industry and their abilities are beyond doubt.
Besides, if you bring it up, Mr. Wang won’t refuse.”
The benefits are already there. Qingyun is the largest shareholder of BYD Electronics, and Li Zehua is also a director of BYD Co., Ltd. Isn't it easy to borrow someone to look after the house?
The most important thing is that with someone who will not pose a threat and who is very familiar with the rules of the industry watching over them, the people below will not dare to act recklessly.
Gu Shijie did not mention the most crucial reason. After all, there is a layer between BYD Electronics and the group. Theoretically, they are not completely one of the same group, and some people within the group want to take the opportunity to intervene.
It may not go as you wish.
Li Zehua understood it, and he was very satisfied. He also put the problem submitted by He Li on the table, "Google does not agree to it, and the company also has a business plan to replace Google with Qingyun's whole family.
The key is that hardware service providers are unwilling to do adaptation work, or are unwilling to open the backend, even if the first generation of Hongmeng operating system can be successfully launched.
What if subsequent upgrades conflict with hardware? "
Of course, spending money can avoid 99.99% of the troubles. The key is the hundreds of parts suppliers and a large number of foreign companies. A few cents here and a few dollars there.
How much money can the company afford to buy it out?
The total price is only 798, and if it is sold in Southeast Asia for a hundred dollars, it would be inappropriate to increase the cost further.
The group’s executives didn’t have a good solution to this problem and fell silent for a while.
The problems Qingyun is facing now are completely different from the difficulties encountered when the original Space-Time Petals launched its own system. The latter could not get support from millions of software service providers.
After all, it is already very difficult for a small or medium-sized technology company to maintain two system project teams at the same time, and adding Hongmeng, which is separated from the original user scale, makes no one motivated to support it.
But when Huaban vigorously promoted domestic systems, hardware supply had basically been domestically produced, with only slight deficiencies in cutting-edge areas.
The problem now is that Qingyun cannot wait until the battle over mobile phone operating systems is settled. Li Zehua is focusing on creating a time difference before the Symbian systems of BlackBerry, Sony and Nokia are defeated.
He must make Hongmeng stand out smoothly, and then take advantage of the godsend opportunity of the trade dispute to actively lobby the upper echelons and establish Hongmeng's dominant position in the country through legislation.
Just like when Baidu drove out Google, it had to choose between two options: either keep the database locally or get out.
Google is also well aware of the special nature of the Dongda market, so it has stepped up its lobbying of major American technology companies and also stirred up a wave of public opinion in the Dongda market in an attempt to scare Qingyun away.
Li Zehua was not afraid at all. The group had no shortage of funds and no shortage of stable basic support. As long as there was enough time, he could defeat the opponent without bloodshed. The advantage lay with him.
Why should we give in?
Even Qualcomm, the most difficult company to deal with, looked very embarrassed under the offensive of Qingyun Jinyuan. In fact, it had already made a preferred choice. As long as there is money, there is nothing that cannot be sold.
After all, in this era, Intel's name is very intimidating. In terms of 2g and 2.5g mobile phone chips and architecture, Intel is still very capable, but who knows about its crappy power output.
If used on 3g chips, will it cause the body to have a high fever?
Qualcomm was also frightened. It will take at least two or three years for it to fully realize that Intel is a useless paper tiger in the smartphone market.
It is understandable that Qualcomm, which could not see the situation clearly, chose to compromise after Qingyun acquired Lianxiang and merged it with Shenzhou Electronics to avoid further strengthening the relationship between Qingyun and Intel.
Unfortunately, Qualcomm is not MediaTek and has no motivation to develop a complete set of basic mobile phone applications. Even if it succeeds in doing so, there will still be many difficulties to deal with.
“Do we need to learn from MediaTek and also develop a large collection of smartphone motherboard chips?”
Li Zehua thought about it, but said: "How to break the deadlock specifically, Qingyun Electronics, Rongwei Electronics, and Qingyun Software's management should come up with a feasibility plan.
My principle is to save money and maintain stability..."
When several company executives heard this, their heads almost exploded. If they wanted this and more, why not just go and grab it?
Unfortunately, since the boss had spoken, no one dared to refuse, so they had to agree to it.
"It's only a few days away from the official release in July, so the first generation of Hongmeng is still okay, but according to the goal of a major upgrade every six months, the end of the year will definitely be difficult."
Guo Xinyi was full of worries during his chat with He Li, but unfortunately the latter could not provide a solution for the time being. He could only hope to persuade the government later to promote domestic standards by compulsory means.
After all, there is such a huge market here that other companies cannot give up.
After solving the problem of promoting the mobile phone system, Li Zehua felt a little tired. After all, he had been working on it since five in the morning, but he was destined to be a hard-working person.
Before I even got up from the sofa, I received a call from the local Pengcheng government. The big boss came over and, with the attitude of giving it a try, the Pengcheng government issued an invitation.
"Of course I am free. Mr. Wang invited me, so I have to squeeze out time to visit you!"
After hanging up the phone, Li Zehua took the time to wash his face, and then ordered the progress documents of various projects in Pengcheng to be brought over. After analyzing them, he focused his attention on Dajiang Technology.
"Please invite Mr. Lu over. I want to talk to him in person."
……
"Expand the large-scale testing site, build the world's largest drone production and testing industrial park, and focus on developing and promoting unmanned technology?"
Mr. Wang didn't expect that a courtesy invitation would yield such a big catch, and he was so happy that he smiled from ear to ear, "Cooperate with Huaban and ZTE to promote intelligent manufacturing in the manufacturing industry.
In the service sector, there is no problem replacing inefficient and repetitive manual labor."
As he spoke, he looked at the last few items and frowned slightly, "Resist the pressure from the Five Military Governors' Office and ensure market share in the civilian field?
Mr. Li, what does this mean?
Do you think that drone technology and intelligently manufactured precision unmanned operating equipment will be widely used in military engineering in the future?"
Li Zehua recalled his memory of the scene where SF Express launched a new large fixed-wing drone just as Kong Ye came to the door with a paint bucket, and he felt a chill.
It’s not that he is unwilling to give it up, the key is that he has to leave some soup!
Lu Fei bitterly told about some recent research and development progress, as well as the progress of the cooperation project with the Five Military Governors’ Office, “Wang Shuji, help the country achieve technological breakthroughs in related fields.
It is our duty as private entrepreneurs, but the purpose of a company is to make a profit. We cannot spend a lot of money on research and development only to find that the product cannot be used in the civilian market and then we cannot recoup the cost. "
This is not the era of wealth and power in the future. For example, Dajiang and Googol Technology invested 1 million to achieve a breakthrough in a certain technological field, which is estimated to earn billions of profits for the company every year in the future.
Lu Fei still hopes that Dajiang will unify the global drone market, so how can he not be afraid?
Li Zehua is rich, but he cannot throw money into it without limits. He also seeks returns from his investments.
Mr. Wang understood. It turned out that it was because their relationship was too close and he was afraid of being fleeced, so he wanted to find an excuse to get away.
He thought about it and felt that the problem should be handled with caution. However, when he saw the investment amount, he could not sit still. After thinking carefully, he slowly said:
"Well, let me communicate with the higher-ups first..."
In short, he wants to stay in the local area for the sake of benefits, but he wants to avoid trouble.
Lu Fei and Li Zehua looked at each other with smiles in their eyes. As long as there was an excuse that would not affect the relationship with the Five Military Commandery, it would be fine.
The latter is actually pretending to be ignorant. Who doesn't know that the purpose of private enterprises engaging in scientific research is to achieve technological advantages?
The key is that they really have no money, so they can only take advantage of others!
Now, Dajiang, Gohigh Technology, Fengniao and Pengcheng have reached a package cooperation agreement to jointly establish a global drone production and R&D industrial park, preparing to build it from scratch.
After creating an industrial chain worth hundreds of billions or trillions of dollars, no matter how dissatisfied the Five Military Governorates is, they can only settle for the second best and adjust their focus to key technologies in key areas rather than trying to acquire everything at once.
With Pengcheng's attitude, Li Zehua felt relieved. In the afternoon, he went to BYD Co., Ltd. and talked to Wang Chuanfu face to face about borrowing people.
"Boss Fu is pregnant? Congratulations."
Wang Chuanfu readily agreed, and then mentioned the contact with Toyota and Volkswagen, "They are still hiding it and refusing to authorize."
"It's OK. They won't give it to us, but Daimler is willing to do so, as are several car companies in Italy and France, who are willing to transfer engine and brake technologies before 2000.
You send someone to America to contact Tesla, and they will send someone to negotiate in the near future. The prerequisites have been discussed, and you just need to go through the motions and wait to pay the money. "
Li Zehua didn't take it seriously and casually invited me, "If you are free, you can go to Frankfurt with me in mid-May."
Wang Chuanfu's worries were gone, and he spoke more cheerfully, "How can I be so embarrassed to trouble you so much?"
"We are all family. No matter how difficult it is, I have to stand up for myself."
Li Zehua was just speaking quickly at the moment, and he never thought that his move to create momentum for Pinxixi's listing would eventually spread from one person to ten people, and from ten to a hundred, and eventually attract a large business delegation.
Everyone formed a team and went to Europe to attract investment and discuss cooperation. The leader became a super boss and led the team out in an open and formal name.
It’s no wonder. It was originally a financial cooperation. Pinxixi’s listing was just a pretext. In essence, it was an offline and online financial cooperation negotiation between Minsheng Financial Holdings and Weifuzhi.
He added the cooperation in the field of automobile manufacturing, and then discussed cooperation in the field of telecommunications with ZTE Petals, and asked the latter whether it was interested in establishing a deeper cooperative relationship with Nokia.
Wow, it spans several major industries, including finance, Internet, automobiles, telecommunications, and manufacturing. There are many people who want to go into the field, and they are all top bosses in the industry.
The news reached the higher-ups, and coincidentally, it was during the critical period of attracting investment, with a large amount of international hot money pouring in, and the higher-ups also wanted to make a big move.
So they hit it off immediately, and the private enterprise exchange and cooperation turned into official cooperation and exchange, and Mr. Li also enjoyed the treatment of a special plane pick-up... (End of this chapter)
