Rise up Hong Kong! Build a super wealthy Zhuang family

Chapter 155 Conversation with Fuji President Yukiro Yasuda

Just as Zhuang Rongxu and Yasuda Yukinoiro left together, on the other side of the venue, two gray-haired old men looked at them curiously.

Even when Yukiro Yasuda and Akio Morita were quarreling, they were watching from the sidelines, and they were all very interested in watching them quarrel.

"President Aoki, do you know that young man?" One of the old men asked curiously.

"Sorry, Chairman Matsushita, I don't know him either."

"Strange, how could Yasuda Yukiro get together with such a young man?" the old man said very curiously.

These two people are also the bosses of the electronics and electrical appliances industry in Country R. The industries they own are large groups. One of them is Konosuke Matsushita, the current executive chairman and chairman of Panasonic Group.

The other one is Koichi Aoki, the current chairman and chairman of Toshiba Group.

I believe many people know Panasonic Group.

Panasonic (English name: Panasonic), whether now or in the future, Panasonic is a multinational company in country R.

Future has hundreds of companies around the world, with a total number of employees exceeding hundreds of thousands, of which Future has tens of thousands of employees in the inland area alone.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a super multinational group. Now in 1980, Panasonic, Toshiba, Sony, and Hitachi are known as the four major semiconductor groups, and they have developed development bases around the world.

At this time, Panasonic Group's main development was household products such as televisions, refrigerators, air conditioners, electric fans, etc. It was only in the mid-1980s that it began to develop some more valuable semiconductor products.

The development of products such as camera sensors, zoom lenses, video recorders, and new generation fax machines.

Starting from the early 1980s, Panasonic also began to expand its business and develop inland. When Panasonic opened its inland factory, the old man even came to visit in person, which shows how much they value their technology.

Panasonic, Sony, Hitachi, and Toshiba have been rivals since the 1970s, but they often cooperate selectively like friends to jointly develop new products.

But now, Panasonic's Konosuke Matsushita and Sony's Akio Morita are already enemies.

It happened in 1974.

At that time, the Sony Group had just begun to show its prominence. The company's various industries were developing relatively rapidly, especially in the research and development of semiconductor products. The momentum was very rapid, and these companies began to regard it as a strong competitor.

But at that time, Sony Group was in need of development, so Akio Morita found Konosuke Matsushita, the founder of Panasonic Group, and wanted to cooperate with him to jointly develop more new products to occupy the market.

At first, the two of them reached a verbal agreement. In mid-1975, Akio Morita, in order to express his sincerity, personally invited Matsushita Konosuke and his R\u0026D team to visit the Sony Group's largest R\u0026D base.

The purpose is to increase the trust and common development between the two groups. Unfortunately, after Konosuke Matsushita and his group visited and learned about the new products Sony was developing, Akio Morita sincerely invited Konosuke Matsushita and asked them to Let’s work together to change semiconductor products around the world.

But even though Akio Morita was so sincere, it was a pity that Konosuke Matsushita still chose to hesitate and play Tai Chi with a very perfunctory attitude.

Until three months later.

It was only after the Panasonic Group launched a product that the relationship between Akio Morita and Konosuke Matsushita officially deteriorated. This also led Akio Morita, who had always been gentle and polite, to publicly call Konosuke Matsushita a (villain) and a profiteer who cannot be associated with him in public in front of reporters.

What led to the breakup between the two of them turned out to be that three months ago, the Sony Group was developing a video tape that could record non-stop for up to an hour. After the development is successful, it will be the tape that can record for the longest time in the world. This It made Matsushita Yukisuke jealous.

After visiting Sony's R\u0026D center, Matsushita Konosuke immediately asked his R\u0026D team to develop tape for longer videos.

So three months later, when the Panasonic Group developed a video tape that could continuously record for 2 hours, and when it was officially promoted on the market, Akio Morita went directly to the Panasonic Group and had a big fight with Konosuke Matsushita, and even beat people himself. .

After Akio Morita was expelled from the Panasonic Group, he immediately held a press conference and scolded Konosuke Matsushita on the spot, calling him a villain and a disgraceful profiteer. He even told the whole story.

Then in early 1976, because the Panasonic Group was fully suppressed by the Sony Group, and the malicious price reduction was targeted, he was a little bit overwhelmed. Afterwards, Matsushita Konosuke chose to cooperate with another semiconductor company, Hitachi, which is a company under the Fuji Group.

At that time, Fuji's Hitachi chose to cooperate with Panasonic Group because technical personnel were unable to develop new products.

This put even greater pressure on Akio Morita's Sony Group, which resulted in the one-hour video tape developed by Sony Group being completely suppressed to the point of being unmarketable, and was forced to withdraw from the market soon after.

Sony and Akio Morita suffered heavy losses.

As a result, their enemies became even more enlarged.

Also, when Konosuke Matsushita saw the quarrel between Akio Morita and Yukiro Fuji Yasuda, he became so interested.

I am even more curious about who is Zhuang Rongxu next to Yukiro Yasuda?

As for Zhuang Rongxu.

This time, he personally took Nakamori Akina, Yasuda Yukiro and Yasuda Kimurao to a quiet private room in the villa and sat down.

He didn't know what Yukiro Yasuda wanted to talk to him about, but he thought in his mind that it should be because of Akio Morita's visit to him just now.

After all, Fuji Group is now bent on relying on cooperation with some capable electrical and electronic companies, so that Fuji Group can squeeze into this industry. Even if it cannot surpass large groups such as Panasonic, Toshiba, and Sony, it also wants to not fall too far behind. .

Now it was difficult for them to find a relatively young R\u0026D company, so he definitely didn't want to miss it.

It was exactly what Zhuang Rongxu thought.

Originally, Yukiro Yasuda planned to talk to Zhuang Rongxu about more cooperation in the future, but he did not talk to Zhuang Rongxu now, but planned to wait until the reception was almost over.

But just now Yasuda Kimura told him that Morita Akio, the executive chairman and chairman of Sony Group, actually found Zhuang Rongxu, and the two had a very happy conversation, Yasuda Yukiro couldn't sit still.

I was deeply afraid that he would poach Zhuang Rongxu away.

You must know that Yukiro Yasuda is still very optimistic about Zhuang Rongxu. It should be said that he highly recognizes Dingsheng Company's R\u0026D capabilities.

And especially since they knew that Zhuang Rongxu's company was developing a very important product, Yukiro Yasuda didn't want to sever his cooperative relationship with Zhuang Rongxu, so he had to step forward immediately.

"Zhuang Jun, based on the happy cooperation between our two companies during this period, I believe that we are already very good friends, so I will speak frankly."

"Chairman Yasuda, please tell me."

"Okay, Mr. Zhuang, I, the Fuji Group, have always cooperated with your company with the greatest sincerity. I hope you will do the same. I believe that if the two of us sincerely cooperate together, I believe that we will soon be able to occupy a certain share of the market in country R." of."

"We can even cooperate more deeply. I believe that with the capabilities of your company's R\u0026D team, the sales channels, production capabilities, and various conditions owned by our Fuji Group, we can definitely gradually expand the market in other areas. .”

"Zhuangjun, do you think so?"

After hearing what Yukiro Yasuda said, Zhuang Rongxu already knew what he wanted to say.

At this time, he looked at Yukiro Yasuda with a smile: "Chairman Yasuda, do you think I will cooperate with Chairman Akio Morita of Sony Group?"

"Zhuang Jun, you are a smart person. I believe you will not make such a confused choice."

At this time, Zhuang Rongxu was very interested in knowing what Yukiro Yasuda wanted to say with these words.

"Why did President Yasuda say that?"

"Zhuang Jun should know that Sony Group itself is a group with strong independent research and development. Even if you cooperate, then I believe that your cooperation is only temporary, and you can only cooperate on one product at most. But it is different from our Fuji Group. I admit that among Fuji’s semiconductor companies, only Hitachi can barely compete with them.”

"Therefore we very much need long-term cooperation with some companies that have potential and can independently develop some products that are very suitable for market demand."

"Therefore, your choice to continue to cooperate with our group will definitely be more beneficial to the growth of your company than if you cooperate with the Sony Group, which is gaining momentum."

"Zhuang Jun, do you agree with what I say?"

It is undeniable that what Yukiro Yasuda said really touched Zhuang Rongxu's heart.

As he said, Zhuang Rongxu's company needs to grow, and it is definitely better to cooperate with the Fuji Group than with the Sony Group, because they each have needs and need mutual support to achieve what they want, so cooperation will be even better.

And what about Sony?

Indeed, as Yukiro Yasuda just said, Sony's own independent research and development team is very strong. Even if Zhuang Rongxu's company cooperates with Sony, it will only be a half-product cooperation at most.

This is not in line with the development of Zhuang Rongxu's company.

Based on the current situation of Dingsheng Company, it is not easy to fully open up the country R market, truly integrate into this market filled with semiconductor R\u0026D companies, and also get the approval of consumers in country R.

Without multiple explosive products and the accumulation of time, it would be impossible for his company to gain a foothold here and compete with other local brands.

At the same time, it also needs to face the suppression of local brands and various overt and covert competitions. Therefore, his company must cooperate with a strong local group for a long time, and Fuji Group is indeed the best choice.

"Chairman Yasuda, I admit that what you just said is very reasonable, but you are wrong about one thing. Our company will not stop and it is impossible to develop only one good product."

"Therefore, there is no such thing as only one cooperation with the Sony Group. What if our company continuously develops various products with great market demand?"

"I believe that Chairman Akio Morita of Sony Group will definitely continue to choose to cooperate with our company."

"Of course, neither I, Zhuang Rongxu, nor Dingsheng Company will do anything to burn bridges. Therefore, Chairman Yasuda, please rest assured that during our cooperation, under the condition that the conditions are not much different, neither I nor Dingsheng Company will do anything." Choose to cooperate with any company outside the Fuji Group."

"I can guarantee this, so President Yasuda, please rest assured. Dingsheng Company and Fuji Group will not give up cooperation easily before any accident occurs."

"Personally, I very much agree with what you just said. Cooperation between Dingsheng and Fuji Group is indeed more beneficial than cooperation with any other group."

After Yukiro Yasuda and Kimurao Yasuda heard Zhuang Rongxu's words, they looked at each other and smiled, and the worries in their hearts disappeared immediately.

"Yoshi..."

"I feel reassured by your words, Mr. Yuzhuang. On behalf of the Fuji Group, I am very much looking forward to long-term cooperation with your company. Let us work together sincerely to open a new door for the future semiconductor industry."

“I feel the same way, let’s cheer for our future.”

"Hahaha, Mr. Zhuang is such a cheerful person. I like your character so much. Let's go out and have a drink to celebrate our happy cooperation in advance."

"Hey! President Yasuda, please come."

"Jun Zhuang, please also..."

"By the way, is this your lady?" At this time, Yasuda Yukiro asked about Nakamori Akina beside him.

Just now, because he had been worried, Yasuda Yukiro didn't want to deal with anything else. Now that I was in a better mood, I noticed the beauty beside him and asked him to ask.

When Nakamori Akina heard this, she lowered her head shyly again. At the same time, she was patiently looking forward to how Zhuang Rongxu would respond, hoping in her heart that he would nod.

Zhuang Rongxu also glanced at Nakamori Akina. Seeing her appearance, Zhuang Rongxu smiled: "President Yasuda, you misunderstood. Her name is Nakamori Akina. She is currently a new singer in your group's entertainment company. I care about her too." She is still young and is not my wife."

"But, who knows what will happen in the future?"

When Yukiro Yasuda and Kimurao Yasuda heard Zhuang Rongxu's words, they looked at each other again and laughed.

It means they already understand.

When Nakamori Akina heard Zhuang Rongxu's words, she felt very disappointed, but his subsequent words made her feel slightly happy.

Now for the first time, she was worried about being too young, and thought to herself, if she had grown up now, would it be okay...

In a short period of time, Nakamori Akina had already thought about what would happen a few years later.

soon…….

Zhuang Rongxu and Yasuda Kimurao were chatting happily while walking.

Their appearance once again allowed Matsushita Konosuke and Aoki Koichi to see.

Seeing them chatting and laughing, their status seemed to be equal, which made the two of them even more curious about Zhuang Rongxu's identity, which actually allowed Konosuke Matsushita to communicate in person.
