Rewrite the Technological Landscape

When American companies were rushing to China, Meng Qian first went to Neon Country to attend Sony's acquisition conference.

Sony officially acquired 50% of Ericsson's shares, Sony Ericsson changed its name to Sony Mobile, and in this transaction, Dafeng Group invested 300 million yuan to buy 15% of Sony Mobile's shares, which is currently Sony Ericsson's second largest the only shareholder.

Meng Qian came here today, on the one hand, to save face for Sony, and on the other hand, he came for Ericsson, more precisely, for Italian-French Ericsson.

ST-Ericsson is the most important player in the TD camp in Europe, but according to the past history, it has already closed down at this moment.

The core reason is that ST-Ericsson's main customers are Nokia, Motorola, Sony Ericsson

When ST-Ericsson chose these three companies, they definitely could not have any problems with them. These three companies were once the three peaks in the mobile phone industry. Indeed, no one thought that these three companies were all cold.

However, the appearance of Meng Qian changed the history. The three companies are now all alive, and all three companies are now in the Vientiane Hongmeng camp.

After the press conference, Meng Qian, Hirai Kazuo and Ericsson CEO Wei Hansi got together.

"I said something to Mr. Ollila before, I hope that Nokia can continue to exist, so after a long period of communication with Mr. Ollila, I decided to acquire Nokia.

Now I want to send this sentence to the Sony Mobile brand. I hope and believe that this brand will continue to be brilliant in the era of smartphones. "

Meng Qian raised his wine glass and clinked with the two, expressing his emotions first, and at the same time made a hint, mentioning his acquisition of Nokia.

"I heard that Nokia's new phone will be released next month?" Kazuo Hirai put down his glass and asked. Since he still decided not to give up the smartphone industry, Kazuo Hirai will naturally face it well. Every time he faces Meng Qian From time to time, you will learn more about the situation.

"Well, to put it bluntly, the problems of Nokia and Sony Ericsson are all caused by the slow camera. You all have such rich experience, how can you fail to make mobile phones? The reason why Motorola is doing so well now is because it has never From the very beginning, I chose the direction I should choose." Every sentence of Meng Qian carried hints.

"Actually, it's not too late for us to enter the market." Kazuo Hirai sighed. Sony Ericsson also uses the Vientiane system, but it is true that the performance in the past two years is much worse than that of Motorola.

"I still say that, some traditional ideas in your country are difficult to adapt to this fast-paced era." Meng Qian said very directly, but Kazuo Hirai would not be angry, because it is true.

Neon Country's products are indeed too rigid, and the disadvantages of this rigidity were immediately exposed during the development of smartphones.

It was precisely because Kazuo Hirai saw this problem that he thought of a way to let Dafeng Group take a stake. "We will carry out internal reforms in accordance with Mr. Meng's suggestion. In addition, I want to set up a research and development center in Hangzhou."

Meng Qian knew that Kazuo Hirai just wanted to get to know Dafeng Group more now, and set up a research and development center to steal teachers from a short distance. Fortunately, Meng Qian didn't care, because the current core of Dafeng Group cannot be stolen by others.

"Of course there is no problem." Meng Qian readily agreed, "As a shareholder of Sony Mobile, we will not be ambiguous about what we can do. After all, I did not intend to be a pure shareholder waiting for dividends at the end of the year from the beginning."

When Meng Qian said this, he looked at Wei Hansi and continued to hint.

And under the hint of Meng Qian, Wei Hansi finally couldn't hold back anymore. Although the three companies in this life are not cool, among them Motorola is quite good, but the weakness of European companies in this fast-paced competition is Can't be changed.

STMicroelectronics was one of the top three TD players in the world at the beginning, but now it is getting worse day by day.

In fact, the situation of ST-Ericsson is very similar to that of Sony Ericsson. The camp has no choice, and it also cooperates with the Gale Group, but some environmental problems make them unable to ride the wind and waves even after boarding the boat.

So Sony's decision affects Wei Hansi, and Wei Hansi thinks he has a bargaining chip in his hand, so he found an opportunity to cut the topic in, "Qualcomm has been biting the wind in the field of mobile processors for the past two years. Group, especially in Omi's TD market, Qualcomm's expansion is very fast."

Finally, when Wei Hansi spoke, Meng Qian answered naturally, "Qualcomm is indeed a very difficult opponent, especially since we still have a lot of cooperation with Qualcomm, we can only keep improving ourselves. Technological level, strive to maintain technological leadership, and use technological leadership to seize the market."

Wei Hansi was a little displeased, because things did not develop as he imagined. He thought that the chips of Dafeng Group were too difficult to mix in the Omi market, especially the American market. However, as a European company, ST-Ericsson Businesses are different.

ST-Ericsson can help Dafeng Group in this matter, but Meng Qian knows very well what Wei Hansi is thinking. At this time, if he takes the initiative, he will be passive. The risk of not taking the initiative is that Wei Hansi may not be there anymore. One step forward, but Meng Qian is willing to gamble.

Because Meng Qian had more chips in his hand.

Sure enough, Wei Hansi had no choice but to take the initiative, "Mr. Meng, in fact, we can cooperate further."

"Mr. Wei Hansi has any ideas, just let me know." Meng Qian pushed.

"Perhaps thanks to the WiMAX Alliance back then, TD has developed very rapidly in the 4G era, but now there are only four or five TD players on a global scale.

Compared with FD, the number of TD players is far from enough, especially according to the research and development results of the past two years, TD is likely to become the core of the 5G era, so this space is very large. On the one hand, we cannot miss it, on the other hand On the one hand, we have to increase the market size before 5G comes out. "

"Mr. Wei Hansi is right, so at this time the leading technology is even more important." Meng Qian is staring at technology, because technology is the fatal flaw of ST-Ericsson.

"Technology is naturally the most important, but under the current environment, we should also find ways to deal with various methods from competitors." Wei Hansi made the words more clear.

"No matter what means, technology is fundamental. I believe that the market will follow technology in the future. Unless there are so many people who are willing to give up leading technology and choose backward technology, then if they really want to, let them lag behind. .” Meng Qian responded firmly, and these words were also his true thoughts.

Wei Hansi had nothing to say for a while, seeing that Wei Hansi didn't think much about going further, Meng Qian suddenly changed the subject and chatted for a while, then found a chance to ask casually, "By the way, How is Alstom doing recently? I think this matter is making a lot of noise."

As soon as the voice fell, Wei Hansi's face had already changed subconsciously. It was not only Alstom that the American side wanted to get in the bag, but Ericsson had also been targeted, although in fact Ericsson escaped the disaster, and then It will be targeted again in 2019, but Wei Hansi does not know that Ericsson can actually withstand this catastrophe.

When this matter was mentioned, Wei Hansi's voice changed a little, it was very low, "Alstom's acquisition is probably a foregone conclusion, it's just a matter of price."

"The news that came out not long ago is said to be more than 10 billion meters gold."

"I've heard of it too, but it should be fake. If it's really at this price, it's really ridiculous."

Meng Qian clicked his tongue to express his helplessness, "Unfortunately, Alstom's industry is too poorly matched with us, otherwise I really hope that I can help Alstom, every time I see news about Alstom, I always think of Nortel inadvertently.”

What Meng Qian said couldn't be more clear. Nortel is developing very well now, and it is Meng Qian who saved Nortel to be able to have today.

And Meng Qian’s sentence contains three layers of meaning. The first layer is that Meng Qian is willing to help companies that are unfairly treated by the United States and match their own industries. The second layer is that Meng Qian has the ability to support a giant company. The third floor is to remind Wei Hansi that if Dafeng Group wants to find a helper in the Omi communication market, it can definitely turn to Nortel.

There are three layers of meaning here, and Kazuo Hirai, who was sitting on the sidelines, immediately acted as a matchmaker, "Actually, Italian Ericsson can be like Sony Ericsson. If you want to change, you need to be thorough."

Kazuo Hirai is very clear about who he should prefer between Ericsson and Dafeng Group, and he must be holding the thigh of Dafeng Group.

Although Wei Hansi still didn't make a clear statement, his tone changed, "Our problem now is talent and capital. I don't know if Mr. Meng is willing to help us."

Seeing Wei Hansi's most important layer of defense in his heart was compromised, Meng Qian raised his glass with a smile again, "There is nothing to help or not to help, and win-win cooperation is good for everyone."
