Chapter 421, Japanese and Korean companies are unstoppable

"Well, Oscar, my sister really has a lot of business to do in New York."

It was noon, and it was only more than an hour after the strange Samsung employee was arrested. It was still somewhere in the Rockefeller Center square, where Alice was using a public telephone booth.

"I have a book to be published... Yes, it's the magic novel I told you. In addition, I have some investment projects to chat with some people on Wall Street."

"Hannah wants a gift? Oh, that's it...why would I inform Milan and ask Aunt Elena and the others to launch a clothing specifically for Hannah?"

"Stop the Batmobile! You're still one year away from taking the driver's license test. Whether "Batman" is going to start filming soon, otherwise, you can go directly to Long Island in two days, and the scene of Wayne Manor is here."

"Okay, OK, right~ Hey, bye!"

The call was over. It was natural to report the situation to your family if you had something to do, but dealing with your younger brother and sister is not a simple job. Take out the phone card, Alice gusted and drank a big sip of Coke, and then returned along the street.

Although this central business district consisting of nineteen buildings has a completely integrated parking lot underground, the ground must of course comply with traffic regulations. Walking from this building to that building, turning east and west along the sidewalk, Alice saw the cafe agreed by John Grayson.

Dingling's door opened, and then a beautiful girl made a grand appearance. As soon as Alice entered the door, she saw the middle-aged uncle beside the bed. Of course, the other party was also an old expert who met the customer. As Alice saw, a waiter had just walked up to him.

"Alice, you're here just right. I just called the waiter." With nonsense bubbles in my mouth, John Grayson smiled and said, "I want to drink something?"

"Minors don't drink coffee, give me a cup of Hong Kong-style milk tea?" After looking at the menu, Alice smiled and said, "Mr. Grayson chose a good location. It is rare to drink Hong Kong delicious food in Manhattan. Let's come here."

Grayson ordered a glass of cappuccino for himself. After the waiter left, he first started talking: "Ms. Wang, first of all, I am very grateful to you for choosing our Grayson Company as your intermediary. The scale of Samsung Company should not be underestimated. Without the help of professional institutions, it will be difficult for you to get the most affordable price to get the maximum benefit."

The activist people are in a hurry to do anything, and they are indomitable to seize business opportunities, which is the reason why many entrepreneurs succeed. Now that's it. As soon as they realize that Samsung's stock price will fall a little, and she is indeed a little interested in it, Alice immediately found a professional institution to give advice for herself.

"The home appliance industry is now mainstream, so I mainly want to focus on Samsung Electronics." She said: "So Mr. Grayson, since you say you know Samsung well, you must be able to make many useful suggestions, right?"

"It seems that Ms. Wang is also familiar with Samsung, so I need to know a major premise. Ms. Wang, are you planning to simply trade stocks, or do you really want to acquire this huge group with a large amount?"

Alice realized the change in Grayson's wording, and undoubtedly, it was easy for Grayson, a person who had been in the investment industry on Wall Street for many years, to understand how much she had gained in the "87 Stock Market Surge". Forbes and Fortune Magazine have not interviewed her again, but obviously, the man knew how much cash she could mobilize.

"It seems you know me very well." The girl smiled: "Then tell me, if I want to acquire it to a certain extent, what should I pay attention to?"

"The strong sense of nationality in the Korean nation will make them instinctively exclusionary foreign investment, and the Samsung Group is very important to the entire South Korea. So Ms. Wang, if you really spend a huge amount of money to acquire its business, you will definitely be secretly suppressed by the Korean government, which you must beware of."

Alice nodded and expressed her understanding: "It is true. No matter how specific a company is internationally strong, if it has unparalleled influence in its country, if others want to take it into their arms, they must be prepared to fight a national-level tough battle."

"Just know this." Seeing Alice cooperated so much, Grayson's heart that had been hanging for a long time fell a little.

Providing investment consulting to customers is one of the main businesses of companies like him. In this case, the most taboo thing is to meet those fools who are stupid and don’t understand only money. Of course, if it is a kind of stupid and don’t understand, account managers can also deal with it in a foolish way, but if they encounter some customers who don’t understand but always like to come up with bad ideas and don’t cooperate, everyone will have a headache.

Fortunately, Alice Wang is not only not a fool, but he is also very proficient in investment, which makes Grayson feel too much. Of course, it is inevitable that I would thank my son appropriately. If it weren't for the shallow relationship of Eton alumnus, he would have to have a lot of effort to get the consultation fee.

"So before you really take action, you have to systematically understand the group."

Grayson said: "Samsung is a typical East Asian family-style industry. Founder Lee Byung-chul was born in 1910. He opened a grain processing factory with the help of his father in his early years. In 1938, the Samsung Chamber of Commerce was established, which is the predecessor of this huge comprehensive company today."

"At twenty-eight years old, a typical teenager is successful."

"That's right, Miss Wang, I heard that you published mystery novels in Japan, so you may use them to increase your relationship with the Lee family. Lee Byung-chul studied at Waseda University in Japan when he was young. Although he returned to China in just one year, he was just because he was not adapted to the climate. It can be said that the grain processing factory in his early years was all managed by the management knowledge learned in college."

Use Japanese mystery novels to get close to Koreans?

Alice didn't agree with this proposal. As a typical European and American person, Grayson was afraid that he didn't know the bloody romance between Japan and South Korea, let alone the Chinese dislike of Bangzi. Elite investors put forward a super invincible bad idea, but the girl agreed with this.

"After the establishment of the Samsung Chamber of Commerce, its initial main business was to export dried fish, vegetables and fruits from the South Peninsula of Korea. In the 1950s, it gradually expanded into manufacturing industries such as sugar, pharmaceuticals, and textiles, and established as a family-made enterprise. Until 1975, it became a first-class trader in South Korea under the name of Samsung Products, mainly engaged in bulk trade and investment businesses."

Alice remembered silently that to be honest, she had limited knowledge of this largest Korean company. After all, the brand of the stick made her not intend to give it too much attention. It was just because the scale of this company was getting bigger and bigger, Alice, as a typical 21st century young man in her previous life, would certainly inevitably understand some of its things, but it was basically limited to the electronics industry.

"Samsung Products, tsk..." Muttering this name that doesn't matter at all, Alice directly spreads her brain to Mitsubishi, and the ones she is more familiar with.

"As for Samsung Electronics, which you are interested in, it was established just the right time. In 1969, this rank is similar to most Silicon Valley companies."

"Actually, if you really choose to acquire Samsung Electronics, it is indeed a very good opportunity now. Although this company has a considerable income, it does not have many technical patents from the beginning. All products start with imitation."

"Just let's talk about its first product in the early years, the stepping stone to enter the home appliance industry, it was just a 12-inch black and white TV that had entered the decline of the product life cycle and had a low profit margin. The most direct reason for its behavior was that the company did not have and master the minimum electronic technology at that time, and foreign companies that mastered color TV technology were unwilling to transfer relevant technologies to Samsung Electronics, and were only willing to provide complete sets of black and white TVs and assembly technology."

"So considering the comprehensive situation of technology and market, their development strategy at that time was to import black and white TV sets from foreign companies mainly composed of Sony Japan and assemble them under the guidance of foreign technicians, produce low-end products in the recession stage and sell them to low-end overseas markets."

Alice breathed a sigh of relief: "It's a smart way."

"That's right, so Miss Wang, the next thing you need to pay special attention to." Grayson said in a serious tone: "From the early days of this decade, Samsung Electronics has begun to develop into the computer field. The first choice is dynamic memory drills. I believe you know better than me what that is."

"Memory is a good thing," Alice smiled, "so they started using old tactics again?"

"That's right," said Grayson. "When they entered this market, they did not master the key technologies, so the product development strategy pursued was also a copying strategy, that is, packaging from foreign companies Dram chips, and the packaging technology also relies on foreign companies and then produces low-end products to supply the low-end market."

"Then look at the current home appliance industry." Alice sneered: "Japanese and Korean companies invaded the United States in large numbers. At the beginning, our manufacturers only wanted to make some extra money, but they didn't expect that the learning ability of these two nations was so outstanding. The result is good now. Not to mention the home appliance industry, Japan is crazy about buying our things!"
