Return to 78: Why are all the Americans panicking about doing scientific research?

"Brother Lin, Sony and several other major Japanese electronics manufacturers have been engaged in a price war with Best Buy for more than a month. How long do you think they can hold out?"

Northern Machinery Company, Gangcheng Branch Office.

Wang Lei came in from outside holding a copy of today's newspaper.

After nearly two months of contact, Wang Lei was full of admiration for Lin Kaifeng.

I admire Lin Kaifeng not only because he helped the Wang family overcome difficulties.

It is also because of Lin Kaifeng's extraordinary business insight and forward-looking analytical ability on many things.

The day before yesterday, Wang Lei invited Lin Kaifeng to his home.

Uncle Wang Tianci, whose health had just recovered, personally hosted a banquet for Lin Kaifeng.

During the meal, Lin Kaifeng and Wang Tianci talked about many things in the business field.

When Lin Kaifeng left, Wang Tianci told Wang Lei to spend more time with Lin Kaifeng.

Lin Kaifeng's future achievements are absolutely limitless.

In terms of brains, skills, and mind, he is no less than those veteran businessmen who have been famous for many years.

Taking the newspaper, Lin Kaifeng slowly read the report on the US electrical appliance trade war.

After a moment, Lin Kaifeng put down the newspaper and said calmly: "The price war between the two countries will continue for a while until one side can no longer fight."

Hearing this, Wang Lei sat opposite Lin Kaifeng and asked curiously, "Brother Lin, you told me last time that the island companies may have discovered the cooperation agreement you and Best Buy Group had privately made. The local color TVs that Best Buy Group used as a gimmick were actually finished products purchased from the mainland."

"The products were shipped to the U.S., and after some changes, they were sold as American TVs. In this case, why didn't Sony Group make this matter public and condemn Best Buy Group through public opinion for using dishonorable business practices?"

Lin Kaifeng smiled and said, "You always like to look at the surface of things, but if you want to be a qualified boss, you must have the ability to see the essence through the phenomenon."

"From your personal perspective, since the island company knows the true face of the joint venture, it should make it public, expose it to the media, and use public opinion to attack Best Buy Group."

"But if you analyze it from another perspective, you will find a completely different result."

"Once Sony Group makes this public, the first company to run into trouble will not be Best Buy Group, but the island company itself."

"Think carefully, what is the relationship between the American business community and the island country's business community? It's not an exaggeration to say that they are like water and fire, and they are on the verge of a war."

There is an old saying in our Dragon Country: It is rare to be confused. "

"Whether it's an island company or an American company, it's not difficult for them to find out the background of the joint venture. Why hasn't any company made this a front-page news and disclosed it to the media?"

"Because everyone is pretending to be ignorant, the United States needs a batch of domestic household products that are good enough to enhance the confidence of local people in domestic companies."

"Over the years, a large number of Japanese products have entered the United States. If you walk into an American home, you can see products with Japanese trademarks everywhere. This situation is no less than a humiliation for the proud Americans. I took the initiative to give up part of my interests to Best Buy Group and give them the largest share of the joint venture."

"The company has become an American-funded enterprise with absolute American control, and the products it produces are naturally genuine American products. Even though the real situation is not like this, American companies that know the inside story will definitely not expose the matter."

No one understands the business practices of the island nation better than Lin Kaifeng.

Island companies will not let go of any way that can strike back at their opponents.

Logically speaking, Sony Group would never miss such a good opportunity to strike its opponent.

Unfortunately, they didn't use it.

Based on this alone, Lin Kaifeng can analyze the current mentality of Sony Group.

The tolerance of all sectors in the United States towards products from island countries has reached its limit.

On the one hand, the United States needs to expel products from island countries, and on the other hand, it needs to restore the confidence of its own consumers.

At this time, Lin Kaifeng took the initiative to cooperate with Best Buy Group.

Through the exchange of interests and other means, various products produced by Northern Machinery Company are labeled with the trademarks of domestic American products.

Sold abroad under the name of American products.

It doesn't matter where the goods are produced, which country exports them, or which company manufactures them.

As long as a product has a certain American corporate pedigree, it is a domestic American product.

No one exposed this matter.

Not only because the U.S. capital community needs a product that can boost morale, but also because of the importance of the Dragon Country and the Island Country.

At this stage, there is a clear distinction in the importance of the two countries to the United States.

In the past, the United States needed cheap goods from island countries to counter the high labor and manufacturing costs at home.

It is somewhat unexpected that the products from the island countries would come in such a strong force.

In just over a decade, they had destroyed the U.S. manufacturing market.

After listening to Lin Kaifeng's detailed explanation, Wang Lei suddenly understood.

No wonder his uncle asked him to learn more from Lin Kaifeng.

I didn’t expect that there would be so much involved behind a product.

It even involves cooperation between countries.

Wang Lei said with emotion: "A few years ago, who would have thought that our country would be so important to the United States? Not only did the United States give up suppressing our Dragon Country, but it also took the initiative to show goodwill and extend olive branches time and time again."

"Newspapers often report that people from all walks of life in the United States have formed visiting groups, inspection groups, and business delegations, and their destinations are all our Dragon Country."

Lin Kaifeng said: "The relationship between countries is the same as the relationship between companies, which can be described clearly in two sentences."

“There are no eternal enemies or eternal friends in the world. There are only eternal interests.”

"The previous US generals were relatively conservative in character. Due to various reasons, the situation of the Soviet Union attacking and the US defending was created."

"With the new president taking office, the overall defense situation of the United States will be completely changed."

"Among all the top figures in the United States, he is the only one who hates the Soviet Union the most. He is an anti-Soviet madman."

"Anti-Soviet madman... Hehe, Brother Lin, you really know how to tease people."

Wang Lei couldn't help laughing after hearing this.

Although it is interesting, Lin Kaifeng's statement that the new US president is an anti-Soviet maniac is not entirely a joke.

Like Lin Kaifeng, Wang Lei’s greatest interest is either reading or watching the news.

I often see news about this great leader in news reports.

The new US president's attitude towards the Soviet Union is more radical and tougher than any other president.
