Rewrite the Technological Landscape

On the morning of May 17th, Yanjing, at the gate of Panjiayuan.

"I really didn't expect to see Mr. Meng this time in China." Mike Zafirovski greeted Meng Qian in standard Western Chinese.

"Mr. Mike is an old friend of our Huaxia. Thank you for your kindness." Meng Qian lifted Mike up, "But I really didn't expect that Mr. Mike would meet with Panjiayuan."

"Mr. Ren knows that I especially like Chinese culture."

"Yeah, I cheated a painting from me back then."

Ren Zhengfei made a joke, and the three of them laughed and entered Panjiayuan together.

After entering Panjiayuan, Meng Qian realized that Mike didn't choose to come to Panjiayuan for the sake of pleasing people. This guy is more professional than Meng Qian.

"Mr. Mike is the international friend I have met who has the deepest understanding of Chinese culture." Meng Qian gave his evaluation sincerely.

"I have loved studying world history since I was a child, and I am particularly interested in the four ancient countries. As the only one of the four ancient countries that can continue its culture to this day, China naturally makes me more curious.

I also told Mr. Ren before that the reason why I am optimistic about the Huaxia market is because I believe in the cultural core of Huaxia. The industry is being promoted to the world, which is setting off a wave of Hualiu. "

When Mike said this, he looked at Meng Qian with deep meaning, Meng Qian smiled and did not respond, Mike continued, "But the most attractive thing about Huaxia is its strong inclusiveness.

In recent years, everyone has been calling for tolerance, but in fact there is no such thing as tolerance. The vast majority of countries rely on immigrants for development while discriminating against immigrants. The real tolerance should be tolerance. "

Because Mike still spoke English during the formal communication, Mike repeatedly confirmed that Meng Qian understood the difference between the two words, "Bao Rong depends on culture, and only culture can realize Bao Rong, so I often hear it in your country. I feel a little bit sad for you to say that it is useless to be a scholar. You must know that it is the existence of these scholar-bureaucrats for thousands of years that allows the Chinese civilization to be preserved and continued.

If there is no continuation of culture, Huaxia will definitely have another face. "

"It's not bad to look down on scholars." Ren Zhengfei suddenly added, "What's even more sad is that more and more young people think that the culture inherited from China is meaningless."

Mike likes to talk about Chinese culture, so Meng Qian and Ren Zhengfei chatted with him. The three of them chatted like this all morning, and everyone was holding back. Mike was still playing in Panjiayuan, "Mr. Meng, do you want to try your eyesight?"

Looking at the antiques in front of him, Meng Qian didn't know anything, and there was no need to pretend, "It's not embarrassing to be a layman, but everyone is here, buy a souvenir and go back."

As he spoke, Meng Qian picked out a gourd, "Boss, how much is this gourd?"

"5000." Meng Qian and the others were all wearing hats to keep a low profile today, and the boss deliberately didn't look at Meng Qian in order to put on airs, so they didn't recognize him at all.

"A gourd is so expensive?"

"This is the gourd that Emperor Kangxi planted in Fengze Garden in Yingtai. It has the same source as the hexagonal bottle with the character of Tuan Shou made in the Forbidden City. If it wasn't for the master's hand, you wouldn't be able to buy it with two zeros."

"It has some background, but it's still too expensive. Let me give you a real price."

"Brother, this is Panjiayuan, not the alley." The boss first said contemptuously, and then said, "Please quote a price, if it's suitable, take it away, if not, just leave it."

"50."

"You're just kidding me, aren't you?" The boss immediately became upset, and reached out to snatch the gourd.

Meng Qian dodged lightly, then took out 50 yuan from his pocket and put it down, "It's getting late, it's good to earn two packs of cigarettes."

After finishing speaking, Meng Qian turned around and left with the gourd, only to hear the boss muttering behind his back, "Hey you!"

After thinking about it for a long time, the boss finally stood up from the seemingly messy place, but now Meng Qian had gone far away, and the boss skillfully took the money and stuffed it into the bag, but he was still cursing.

"How did Mr. Meng see that it was a fake at a glance?" Mike asked curiously.

"I don't have that ability." Meng Qian shrugged, "I just know that if this is true, the boss will definitely chase it out."

"Hahahaha, so that's what happened."

Taking advantage of everyone getting to know each other well and the atmosphere being good, Meng Qian took this as an opportunity to say, "Mr. Mike didn't come to Dafeng Group for a visit to Huaxia this time, which really makes people somewhat disappointed."

Mike hurriedly explained, "It's not that I don't want to see Mr. Meng, but I don't know what reason to meet Mr. Meng. I'm afraid of being abrupt."

"I understand that in the view of Mr. Mike, Dafeng Group does not seem to have made any achievements in the field of telecommunications." As a telecommunications licensee, Dafeng Group has been immersing itself in 4G technology, so it is relatively low-key in the 3G era. "But it is not the case. The Gale Group has already entered the game, and our goal is directly at Qualcomm."

Mike subconsciously glanced at Ren Zhengfei, and Ren Zhengfei gave Mike an affirmative expression, "I know that Dafeng Group seems to have dabbled in this field, but I don't know the specifics. Hearing what Mr. Meng said, I suddenly I'm a little worried about Qualcomm."

Since Mike was so polite, Mr. Meng stepped up the steps, "So I know that Mr. Mike contacted Mr. Ren immediately after he came to China to ask him to help introduce him, because I think there may be a relationship between Dafeng Group and Nortel Networks. There is quite a lot of space for cooperation, I read that Western media reported that Nortel Networks plans to sell the UMTS department recently, what does Mr. Mike think of Dafeng Group?"

Meng Qian spoke so bluntly, not for any result, but for Mike's reaction, and sure enough, Mike was silent for several seconds before speaking, "Does Mr. Meng know that most of Nortel's current product markets are in the United States. "

"I know."

"Then Mr. Meng should be clear about the attitude of the United States towards other countries in the field of communication equipment."

"Mr. Mike is willing to be frank, and I will naturally not hide it. No matter whether Mr. Mike said that he was worried about Qualcomm, it was sincere or polite, but when I decided to do this, my goal was only to be the world's number one. .

So for me, the US market is dispensable. "

Mike's eyelids moved slightly, and he began to look at Meng Qian's expression unconsciously. Meng Qian continued, "The world is big, and the market is also big. Without the United States, the earth will still rotate and the sun will still rise. I don't have to fight for it." The United States has paid too much for this market.

Now I am looking for Mr. Mike not to use Nortel Networks to enter the United States, but simply to find a suitable partner, just like Mr. Mike's original intention of choosing Huawei as a partner.

Even Nortel Networks, in my opinion, should not pay too much attention to the United States. Nortel was once an industry giant. Nortel once had global radiation. I can see that Mr. Mike is an ambitious person, so I believe Mike Mr.'s goal must also be number one in the world and return to the top. "

Meng Qian's words made Mike's heart itch. Taking over a once peak enterprise like Nortel Networks is of course aiming to return to the peak, and only by returning to the peak can Mike's value in the professional manager circle be doubled.

Seeing the change in Mike's expression, Meng Qian continued to prod, "From Sony in Neon Country to IBM in America, Dafeng Group has never compromised on the issue of cooperation, so in order to cooperate with Nortel Networks, the problem in America In fact, Dafeng Group can completely separate this market and put more energy on the cooperation itself and the larger global market.

I just don’t know if Mr. Mike is willing to cooperate. "

At this time, many media are speculating who Nortel Networks will cooperate with in this wave of mergers and acquisitions. Not on Nortel Networks, and they are busy with internal mergers. As for companies in the United States, it is difficult to protect themselves. As a country in North America, Canada's Nortel Networks is in an extremely embarrassing position.

But Mike didn't know much about Dafeng Group, so he couldn't give an accurate reply at the moment, but he gave a positive attitude, "I don't know when Mr. Meng is convenient, I would like to visit your company."

"Come on according to Mr. Mike's time."

"Okay." Mike glanced at the time, "It's getting late, both of you, please have lunch together?"
