Chapter 312 Hitachi’s decision

Yang Xing didn't stay in Bao Haisheng's place for a long time, just like when he came. This was mainly due to the need for confidentiality. There was no way that he is now a famous financial celebrity in Hong Kong. Recently, officials in charge of the economy of the SAR government frequently visited many wealthy people in the district. Anyone with discerning eyes knew that the Hong Kong government would definitely make big moves in the financial market that was frequently impacted in the near future. At this time, Yang Xing, who is known as the "magic boy", was discovered to be a secret visit to the Chief Executive at this critical moment. Obviously, many people will take advantage of the situation in the market tomorrow. Yang Xing didn't want to make a fuss, so he had to leave gently without taking away a cloud. But the proud smile on his face made Wang Yiren and the others unanimously believe that Yang Xing's trick must succeed and he has gained a lot of benefits from the Chief Executive.

At the same time in Tokyo, Japan, a Japanese traditional Japanese courtyard surrounded by a tall building, which is surrounded by a large area, looks very different. Hitachi Co., Ltd.'s current president Yusaki Hirai and Kayama Hirai were sitting on the ground in a room inside. The two were carefully studying a pile of thick information spread out on the short table of tatami. The cover of the information was "Zhongxing International's suggestions on strengthening cooperation with Hitachi Co., Ltd.", and the paper was rolled up. It was obviously placed here for a while. Both of them were over 70 years old. Hitachi's first president Yusaki Hirai was also the follower of Hitachi's first president Kopirai. He was very old. After seeing it for a while, he gave up the posture of sitting cross-sitting, spreading his legs and leaning on the cushion to talk.

This was once the residence of Hitachi founder Kohei Rahei when he founded Hitachi Production. Later, in order to commemorate him, Hitachi specially set it up as a place where Hitachi senior leaders gathered in private to discuss corporate strategies. Now there are photos of Hitachi's previous presidents hanging on the wall of this room. Hirai Yusaki asked Kayama Kimasato a little tiredly: "Kayama Sang, what do you think of these proposals from Zhongxing Group? We have hanged them for a while. You are personally with that young man.

The president has dealt with. I didn’t follow the Yasuda family to make a fuss at Furong’s last time, just considering the importance of the thing in my hand. In recent years, we have encountered considerable resistance with the Japanese economy. It is rumored that our sales are second only to Siemens, Germany, but our family has a great business and must be prepared for danger in times of peace. The conditions of Zhongxing Group are very attractive, but if we promise him, do you see if we raise a tiger or get a strong helper to get rid of the current predicament?”

Kayama Kishi had two long eyebrows like a hawk. He trembled up and down as soon as he spoke, which was quite funny. However, no one inside Hitachi dared to laugh at him. He was famous for being careful and demanded to be perfect in any work, sometimes even to the point of being nitpicking. He has read this report many times and can be memorized, but now he still carefully examines every word of the proposal. The Japanese translation invited by Zhongxing International is very professional, and the words and sentences of the proposal are almost impeccable. The suggestions are very simple.

Star Group officially proposed to establish a strategic partnership with Hitachi, requesting Hitachi to transfer and share some patents, and assist in improving the technical manufacturing level of major companies under Zhongxing International, training technicians, etc. Star Group is willing to undertake most of the manufacturing tasks subcontracted by Hitachi abroad, and give priority to purchasing Hitachi products and parts to assist Hitachi to develop the mainland Chinese market. For this reason, Star Group is willing to provide generous funds to support the above-mentioned cooperation. According to the proposal, Star Group will pay 10 billion US dollars to promote this cooperation!

Literally, this is definitely a win-win agreement. Zhongxing International gets talent and technology, Hitachi gets capital, market and sales, which are examples of commercial cooperation. However, if literal things determine everything, the world will have no conflicts in the world. Kayama Kimasato and Yuhira Hirai discuss what is hidden after the suggestion. Kayama Kimasato answered: "I have seen that young man several times, and I have seen countless people in my life, but he is one of the few I have seen that cannot see through. His scheming and thinking far exceed his peers, and the word genius may not explain his achievements. One thing is clear, as a partner, his abilities and ambitions are first-class." "Then do you mean that you don't agree with cooperating with him?" Yuhira Hirai asked with interest.

"No! On the contrary, I think this is a great opportunity for us. If we give up, it will be a big loss for us." Kishi Kayama answered firmly. "Tell me," Hirai Yusaki became interested. "It's very simple. This report was handed over to us before he acquired Yamaichi Securities. If a person is not extremely confident in himself, how could he hand over a proposal involving tens of billions of dollars to us when his business prospects are unclear? For him, the acquisition of Yamaichi Securities will definitely be successful. As for where to get tens of billions of acquisitions, he has his own way. He also proves to us with practical results. He has the ability to become Hitachi's equal partner. This transaction will definitely not cause me a loss, and he is not afraid of us!"

"You mean he has big moves now, so let's not miss the opportunity?" Hirai Yusaki calmly analyzed based on Kayama Kimasaki's judgment. "I don't know his next move. I can't see through him, but like playing Go, you don't understand some of his actions at the time, but after the game is done, you suddenly realize his intention." Kayama Kimaki said the truth. "You still want us to cooperate with him for such a dangerous opponent?" Hirai Yusaki asked, "Not bad! I was there at the Furong Club that agreed to sell Yamai Securities. He had heard the Yamada family's speech. His speech was wonderful, and he was very inspiring as a politician. But he chose the wrong partner, and we are all businessmen!"

Kayama Himaru's eyes are bright and he doesn't look a little old. "Businessmen are by nature seeking profits, and our cooperation with Zhongxing Group has always been very pleasant. For example, our LCD production line has developed into three generations of products, but there are many competitors. But we have transferred the old production line to China. With the ability of Nebula Electronics, we have now risen to 30% in the world market share of small LCD panels, which is higher than Sharp and Sony. As for Zhongxing Group's large number of construction sites built by it, the stable and generous profits brought by us are indispensable. Through these examples, our cooperation is very successful. The key is that as the first Japanese company to enter the Chinese market, our performance in China has been declining in recent years. If we lack the assistance of local companies like Zhongxing International, we may be kicked out of the Chinese market!"

"And if Zhongxing International can provide tens of billions of funds, are they afraid that they will not be able to find partners? The cooperation suggestions they put forward are not the only one monopoly in the field. We don't give LCD technology. Wouldn't they go to Philips and Samsung? This time they contacted Caterpillar in the United States and the managers of Rili Heavy Industry under my command were very nervous. In addition, this time they made a big splash at the Las Vegas Electronics Show in the United States. The MPP digital music player they developed has a great chance of winning against the MD we developed. Yasuda's family can use political disputes between China and Japan to see the problem, but we cannot. As businessmen, we want to improve product competitiveness and reduce costs.

, entering China's largest consumer market in the future, is inseparable from a reliable partner. Why should we let go of this ready-made partner? As for fear that it will threaten itself when it grows up, it is even more a joke. Koreans are built by us. I see Sony, Panasonic and competitor Samsung and Hyundai are working together. According to the logic of the Yasda family, we were thrown away the atomic bomb by the Americans. When we introduced the nuclear power technology of the Westinghouse Company in the United States, the Americans were not worried that we would create a nuclear bomb to threaten the United States?" Because it was a secret talk, Kimasato Kayama's words were very relaxed and he was very dissatisfied with the Yasda family's fingers at Hitachi's business strategy.

Hirai Yusaki picked up the folding fan in his hand and tapped the tabletop of the short table, obviously making his own judgment on Kayama Kishimasa's analysis. He kept this action. The hot summer temperature outside the house made the cicadas on the trees sing loudly. The dazzling sunlight shone through the shade of the big locust trees in the courtyard outside the house on the indoor tatami floor, changing the pattern of light and shadow. Kayama Kishima didn't dare to disturb his thoughts, and both of them remained silent.

Suddenly the sound of the folding fan hitting the tabletop stopped, Hirai Yusaki smiled bitterly, "I was an assistant by Mr. Kohei. He once warned us that entrepreneurs must not understand politics, but they cannot rely entirely on politicians. Don't follow the baton of politicians, and have your own ** ideas. I think this is a reflection from the gentleman who has suffered from World War II who is deeply in a disaster caused by military politics over the happiness of the people. Therefore, in the consortium, I have never advocated that normal business decisions be affected due to national and ethnic disputes. This time, the Yasuda family suffered a little loss in the conflict with our friend, but just acted in a daze to bring his subjective judgment into the business that concerns the life and death of the company to make judgments. It is not the quality of a good businessman."

"Former President Mr. Takeshu told me that a decision that is beneficial to the company should first look at whether it is beneficial to the long-term development of the company, whether it is beneficial to the life of the company's employees, and whether it is helpful to the company's profit. As long as these three points are met, do it with confidence and boldness, and don't be entangled in other things. Mr. Xiaoping has a motto, 'I'm not over a hundred years old, and I'm always worried about a thousand years', which reminds us that we have been presidents to have a sense of crisis. There are no products that will last forever in the world, only the thought of long forever. Our partners have expressed their sincerity and there is no reason to push them out. You can call everyone, and we will have a meeting to carefully analyze the pros and cons of this cooperation. If the opinions are consistent, please inform our partners to come to Tokyo!" Hirai Yusaku finally showed the style of a leader of a large enterprise and made his decision.
