Qimonda and Ice Core factory construction matters have been greatly advanced, and good news has landed in China. Fang Zhuo's mood became particularly happy when he arrived in Paris.
As for Schmidt's sincere badness in encouraging others to commit evil acts, it is really scary and vigilant!
The seventh best CEO in the world is so scary!
The Chamber of Commerce arrived in Paris, and the business docking here was left to President Ma Xiliang and the local Chinese Chamber of Commerce. Although Fang Zhuo had made progress with Magdeburg, he still went to the city of Crolle in the Isère province to take a look there.
Investment planning.
It’s not that he wants to keep putting pressure, but that he wants to keep his promise. Once he has said it, he must go.
However, when Fang Zhuo arrived at the hotel, he unexpectedly saw the deputy mayor of Magdeburg who was visiting Kroller. It was really an unexpected surprise.
After finishing his business, he was very friendly and gave him a bottle of red wine given to him by the French side. He made an appointment to meet again after the Spring Festival. Magdegeburg already occupied an important place in his heart.
The small Ice Core team went to Milan to join the larger army. The trip to Germany was the main part of this trip to Europe, which was very satisfying. The cities in France, Italy, Austria, and Spain were just a quick tour, no matter what the results were.
There will be no more worries.
On January 14, everyone gathered in Barcelona to prepare to fly back home.
Germany took 10 days, with a total order volume of 8.69 billion, and the four countries took 4 days, adding another 1.16 billion, for a total of 9.85 billion.
There is only 150 million left to exceed 10 billion. This figure makes Ma Xiliang and others regretful.
However, it is gratifying that all 48 companies dispatched by the Chamber of Commerce have received more or less orders.
"Mr. Fang, the number of overseas orders after we return..." Ma Xiliang sat in the car on the way to the airport, talking about economic and trade orders.
"That's a difference of more than 10 million euros." Fang Zhuo heard the song and understood the elegant meaning, and smiled and converted the units.
Ma Xiliang nodded happily. The Yangtze River Delta Business Association successfully obtained tens of billions of orders from overseas during the financial crisis, and some work reports were written this time.
"Fortunately, there is an order here in Barcelona. Otherwise, 47 companies have it and only one does not. I feel like I have to place an order with Mr. Zhou." Fang Zhuo said with a smile, "Everyone has money to take it.
No matter how much we earn, at least we can live up to the significance of our economic and trade activities."
"Yeah, I really didn't expect Germany to get so many orders." Ma Xiliang said with emotion, "Mr. Fang, you said it well that day. The two sides are really more complementary than competitive. I hope it will be the beginning of a long-term cooperation.
"
Fang Zhuo is very sure about this. China is now Germany's third largest trading partner. Merkel, under the financial crisis, has obviously changed her attitude from a year or two ago and has to become more pragmatic.
As long as we are pragmatic, there will be many opportunities for cooperation.
As for future development, when will Germany feel that it is facing severe challenges? It can only be the rise of China's high-end manufacturing industry, of which Germany's proud automobile industry is an obvious part.
Fang Zhuo's mind was a little freer, and the motorcade had arrived at Anprat Airport.
When everyone got off the bus, they all turned their attention to the conspicuous billboard.
Yike Mars!
It is worth mentioning that not only in Barcelona, but also in the five countries I visited this time in Europe, you can see the advertisements of Yike mobile phones everywhere, which really refreshed everyone's understanding of Yike mobile phones overseas.
Cognition.
"Mr. Fang, your mobile phones are selling well and are sold everywhere!" Nan Cunhui from Chint Group did not hide his envy.
"It's not bad, mainly because everyone is visiting big cities, and our publicity in key cities is very large." Fang Zhuo said with a smile, "If we even visit cities like Paris, Milan, Berlin, and Barcelona,
Without Yike’s publicity, how can Mars be sold?”
Everyone nodded, why does Mr. Fang’s words always make sense? Otherwise, he is the second best CEO in the world!
It is still a chartered flight back to China. Compared with the anxiety I felt when I came, the atmosphere when I returned was more relaxed and full of laughter. Being able to get a big order before the Spring Festival is really the best gift for the New Year.
While waiting for the flight, Fang Zhuo received another call from Yu Hong, talking about the US market.
Finally, as the call was about to end, he said: "Mr. Yu, pay more attention to Google's news and see if Schmidt has any intention of making a mobile phone himself."
"Google is going to end it personally?" Yu Hong asked in surprise, "Have you received the news?"
"There are no rumors. YMS is not about to be launched in China. Yike is now the best Android manufacturer, but there is some competition in the mobile portal. If I were Schmidt, I would probably have more considerations." Fang Zhuo
To judge others by yourself, "you must be wary of them."
There is nothing right or wrong between the two attitudes: the shop bullies the customer and the customer bullies the shop. It just depends on which side you are on.
If he could really compete with Google in more markets, Fang Zhuo would certainly take action without hesitation.
On the contrary, Schmidt will probably have similar plans and thoughts. After all, Samsung and other manufacturers have already joined.
"I really should learn more from you." Yu Hong said sincerely.
"These are all normal things. We are not afraid of Google's competition in mobile phones, we just have a heart." Fang Zhuo reminded, "You need to pay attention to the information from the Silicon Valley R&D Center."
The R&D center does confidentiality work.
But Schmidt is a partner, so there may be opportunities to take advantage of this.
Fang Zhuo still remembers how Mr. Shi became the former director of Apple.
Yu Hong agreed. She remembered the conditions when Google first negotiated cooperation. At that time, they wanted to put the Google logo on Mars, but in the end, nothing happened.
Fang Zhuo hung up the phone and waited for the last group of people who came back from this trip.
Gasoline man Kong Yu happened to be in Europe right now, so he took a flight back to China with him.
Fang Zhuo gave everyone a brief introduction to the leaders of well-known Wall Street funds, and also helped a little to promote the MIGA fund.
Kong Yu has a serious look on his face. Apart from his bald head, which makes him look more individual, he also has the air of a talkative person from a big fund.
On the way back home, it was inevitable to summarize the trip. The first person to speak mentioned the other party’s general gratitude, and the rest also mentioned this.
"Let's just rest assured about the things we're grateful for. I don't want to go to Germany alone to discuss business. The most important thing for us is to get things done." Fang Zhuo spoke midway, "It's almost the Chinese New Year. How will we digest the orders and how will the quality be?
To be in control, you have to have something in mind."
He emphasized again: "Product quality is the life and death line of an enterprise. This must be absolutely paid attention to. The Chamber of Commerce and Industry will also investigate this aspect in the future. I hope that next time such an event will be held, everyone will not be absent because of product quality."
This time, the Chamber of Commerce has inspected companies that have gone abroad. After receiving the order, they will not just ignore it, but will also receive feedback. There is a very common way to form a mechanism to encourage the good ones and expel the bad ones.
Don't give up long-term development for temporary small profits.
There will be more activities next time.
There was applause on the passenger plane.
applause.
applause.
Kong Yu was a little surprised. What these people said was very good, so why did they like to applaud so much? This somewhat fanatical atmosphere... made him uncomfortable.
"How was Mr. Kong's inspection in Europe during this period?" Fang Zhuo asked Kong Yu after everyone's speeches were basically finished.
"The impact of the financial crisis is deeper and broader than imagined." Kong Yu said in a low voice, "The situation in Greece is very bad, and Wall Street has great ill will towards Europe."
Fang Zhuo nodded slightly, that's good.
Kong Yu did not talk in detail on this occasion. He added: "I have recently been thinking about Porsche's case last year, which may be helpful to us."
Fang Zhuo nodded again. He knew that Porsche used its acquisition of Volkswagen to squeeze out short positions last year.
The essence is a discussion of good and bad signals, mixed with information gaps and financial means, and the effect is very amazing.
In October last year, due to Porsche's operation, Volkswagen's stock price rose from 210 euros to 1,005 euros in two days, and its market value also skyrocketed from more than 60 billion to 300 billion, surpassing Exxon Mobil to become the world's number one.
Yike now also has a vague negative.
Judging from the current situation, it may be necessary to discuss with everyone after the Spring Festival.
"Mr. Kong, it's better to see you regain your fighting spirit than anything else. It's almost the Chinese New Year, so let's rest first." Fang Zhuo said, "Have a good holiday and spend time with your family."
Kong Yu nodded silently.
He didn't know why, but while he was inspecting Europe and feeling the vague dynamics of international hot money, his emotions suddenly started to burn again.
However, the situation in Europe will not be resolved in a short period of time. Let's take Yike first to let the short sellers sacrifice their flag.
The passenger plane landed at Shanghai International Airport amid joy and laughter.
Before Fang Zhuo came back, he said he would not hold another banquet and set a time for the mid-year review. Therefore, when people arrived at the airport, the cars from various companies that came to pick up their bosses or executives were already parked in the parking lot.
"Yike Mars!" Nan Cunhui said goodbye to Mr. Fang, pointed to the billboard that he hadn't seen before leaving, and said with a smile, "Mr. Fang, after 3G is opened in China, I will give Mars final rewards for the year to employees when I get back.
"
Fang Zhuo also saw his new billboard and was not polite. He smiled and shook hands with Mr. Nan.
After basically greeting people from the Chamber of Commerce, Fang Zhuo's car took Ma Xiliang and others to the city.
Along the way, Yike's billboards frequently appeared in everyone's sight. Even Ma Xiliang, who was thinking about this achievement, noticed such an obvious high frequency.
After getting off the car, he said a blessing: "Mr. Fang, mobile phones are also selling well in China."
"It all depends on everyone's support." Fang Zhuo finally shook hands with Chairman Ma and felt that this person made a good impression.
Before he got in the car, he raised his head and glanced at the unmissable advertisement in the building next door. He shook his head and said, "It's really a publicity investment regardless of the cost."
"Maybe it's not just offline ads, there are also many online ones." Kong Yu, who lives in Europe, will also be concerned about the domestic situation, especially the boss's important business, "I think other websites except Penguin seem to have promotions for Yike mobile phones.
.”
The No. 10 license was issued, and only at night, the promotion of Yike mobile phone could not wait to be fully launched. Offline materials still need time, and the online promotion has been negotiated long ago and is ready to go.
Yike knew that it would be officially opened this month, but he didn’t know the specific day.
"Penguin, well, this relationship is really bad." Fang Zhuo was helpless.
Ever since there was competition on social platforms before, Penguin has cut off all cooperation. Whether it is Yike or Tesco, they would rather pay liquidated damages than place advertisements.
Although Fang Zhuo didn't feel that the competition between them had reached the point where the bayonet saw red, the other party didn't think so.
"Mr. Kong, it's a rare break. You don't have to go to the company. I have to go for a walk. You take my car and I take another one." Fang Zhuo sat for a while and arranged for Kong Yu to rest.
Kong Yu, who had a rare break, accepted the rare break his boss gave him.
Fang Zhuo sat alone in the car heading to the company. His thoughts did not stop jumping because of the fatigue of the journey. Instead, he was stimulated to think more by the company advertisements along the way.
With the issuance of 3G licenses in China, Yike Mobile's main competitors are foreign manufacturers.
This time in the domestic competition, Yike, which is ahead of the competition, has initially gained the brand advantage.
There is still a gap period, which is to finally use 3G to provide 2G, use touch screens to provide buttons, and use capacitors to provide resistors, so that older models can sink into the market.
The price of the first-generation Yike Mars has been lowered since December. In major pilot cities, the price has been reduced by 100, and the price has become 2,399.
Today's wave is under the banner of Spring Festival promotion, and it has been reduced by 200 again, and the price has become 2199.
3G mobile phones from major brands have not yet been put on the shelves on a large scale. The first generation of Yike's Mars, which is still very capable, has already pushed the price to close to 2,000 yuan.
As long as you are in the early 2000s, you can enjoy the newly opened 3G service and use the smart flagship products that were just over a year ago. In addition, there are also small New Year gifts such as extra power banks.
With such a price and such performance, foreign brands frowned, and domestic brands trying to hold on to the 2,000 price point couldn't stand it any longer.
“Yike Mobile needs to make some money!”
"Liu Qiangdong, does Mr. Fang know that you did this?"
"Made, calculate the materials, calculate the distribution share, are you selling Mars at a loss?"
"Can you let people have a good New Year?"
The complaints from domestic friends did not have any effect on Yike Mobile's offensive. Instead, it became more and more fierce. Regardless of whether the store is available, the advertisement must be obtained.
Wherever you have a mobile phone, you can watch Mars!
What Fang Zhuo saw when he returned to China was such a scene. Yike mobile phones were fully powered, and they must benefit consumers, make friends and businessmen feel the pressure, and let international brands show their strength.
On the way back to the company, we also passed by the construction site of Yike's new headquarters in the new district.
However, the slogans fluttering in the wind on the construction site made Fang Zhuo frown.
“Safety never leaves your mouth, and Mars never leaves your hand.”
"Yike mobile phone is the best, safety production must be kept in mind."
"Safety is worth a thousand dollars, Yikecai 2199."
Fang Zhuo was stunned. Is this also part of the promotion of Yike mobile phone?
Or is this Yongke Real Estate’s own initiative?
"Is Yongke Real Estate listed or from the top? All safety slogans must be standardized. There will be no next time." Fang Zhuo sent a text message to Liu Suyi angrily.
Soon, Liu Suyi replied to the text message: "Received! Mr. Fang, find out the problem and deal with it seriously!"
Fang Zhuo guessed that Mr. Liu was not trying to make a scapegoat, so he replied: "I won't do this next time, let me have a good year."
While Liu Suyi was thinking about a suitable reply, he thought to himself: Buy Mars during the Spring Festival, and everyone will have a happy New Year.
