Chapter 1186: Should you kneel or still kneel
The East Wa Palace Hotel, a banquet hall on the eighth floor.
Looking at the dazzling array of delicacies on the table, but not a single chopstick, and then listening to all kinds of noise faintly coming from next door, the first vice president of Sony, Norio Ohga, suddenly had an extremely ironic feeling.
Especially on the tabletop, the gilded red invitation was reflected on his face under the illumination of the light, as if he had been slapped by someone.
But after thinking about it, it didn't seem to be just an exaggerated rhetorical device, but he was almost literally slapped by Fang Chen.
As Sony's recognized next chairman and president, he and the executive vice president of Philips, as well as the vice presidents of Toshiba, Yamaha and other world-famous companies jointly posted to Fang Chen, asking Fang Chen to come over for a talk, but who knew that Fang Chen categorically refused.
If that's all it is, but the point is that the little man with the sharp-beaked monkey cheeks who came to deliver the message to him gave was extremely nonsense, and it was actually Fang Chen who wanted to invite his subordinate employees to dinner, so he didn't come.
He was so angry and anxious that he wanted to smash everything on the table.
In the eyes of Fang Chen, a group of major companies in the world, at least vice presidents and above, they are not as good as a group of ordinary employees, which is really ridiculous.
He had a feeling of being deeply humiliated by Fang Chen.
On the side, the executive vice president of Philips, Albert, glanced at him from time to time.
Compared with Oga Norio, he was much calmer in his heart at this time, after all, this time the matter was dominated by Oga Norio, and Fang Chen's slap in the face was also the face of Oga Norio, at most he was just the innocent who was affected.
No way, not to mention that Philips is not as good as Sony, let's just say that there is also a huge gap between him and Norio Oga, since some time ago, Sony's chairman and president, Morita Sajo suddenly had a stroke, it is rumored that the chairman and president will be removed, and the successor is Norio Ohga.
But he is at Philips, and he probably can't wait for the day when he becomes president.
And this is the East Wo, Sony's territory, and when something happens, Sony should naturally stick its head out.
In addition, he actually felt that there was something wrong with Dahe Dianxiong, Fang Chen wouldn't come if he didn't come, Dahe Dianxiong actually insisted on holding this banquet, and he also deliberately did it next to Fang Chen's subordinates, isn't this looking for abuse?
Or is it that Norio Ohga has masochistic tendencies, thinking of this, Albert suddenly felt a shudder, and subconsciously sat next to him a little.
Under the gaze of everyone, after another two minutes, Dahe Norio suddenly raised his head and said to everyone with a smile: "If Mr. Fang doesn't come, don't come, let's eat and drink, these are the most expensive dishes in Dongwei to serve you." ”
Only then did everyone start the chopsticks, knives and forks in their hands, and the drinks that should be drunk, and they were happy with each other, as if they were really not affected by Fang Chen's absence at all.
After three rounds of tea and five flavors of wine, Norio Ohga suddenly put down the wine glass in his hand and said to everyone with a smile: "To be honest, I really didn't expect that this famous Mr. Fang would come to Dongwei in person to participate in the MP3 standard setting conference of the Motion Picture Experts Group." ”
He said this not only to start a conversation, but also to tell the truth.
Is this MP3 conference important?
It's also important to say, otherwise companies wouldn't have sent their own vice presidents to lead the team, not to mention Philips, which has almost the same voice in the moving picture expert group as they do Sony, and also sent executive vice presidents like Albert.
But that's about it.
To put it mildly, Sony is in charge of the MP3 conference this time, and there is someone else, not him.
Since Chairman Morita Schofo, who is known as the "saint of management", has suffered a stroke, he has begun to take the initiative to take on the responsibility of maintaining Sony's operations, and small things like the MP3 conference will at most be attended at the opening meeting.
But that thought that Fang Chen, the founder and chairman of Qingtian, holds 100% of the shares of Qingtian, and his wealth ranks among the top 30 in the world, and he is known as the world's youngest super-rich, and he actually came to participate in this MP3 conference in person.
This really made him feel flattered, and even specially asked someone to take the information of this MP3 conference to him again, and read it carefully.
The purpose is to see what's so special about this MP3 conference, which will attract Fang Chen to come in person.
In his imagination, the founder of a large company like DynaSky must be very busy, after all, a company like Sony has a complete structure and a large number of senior managers to share the work for him, and he still has to be busy all day from morning to night, let alone Optimus.
What Dahe Dianxiong didn't expect was that Fang Chen had found Duan Yongping, a hard-working old scalper, early on, and lost almost all of his work to Duan Yongping.
It can even be said that a place like the MP3 conference that needs to tear and fight should be Fang Chen's main battlefield and the work that should be completed.
No, Duan Yongping knew that Fang Chen had come to the MP3 conference, and he didn't mention a word of superfluous nonsense.
On the contrary, Fang Chen didn't come, he was big.
He is in the Lord, Fang Chen is outside the Lord, this is the normal state of the sky.
But if you think about it carefully, Dahe Norio's idea is the normal idea of this world, after all, like Fang Chen and Duan Yongping, the boss dares to be the shopkeeper almost completely, and the president has no idea of plotting to usurp the throne, which is really rare.
In almost all companies, especially those that have only been established for a few years, the boss is extremely close.
But as soon as Fang Chen came like this, he felt uncomfortable.
To say, Sony is one of the world's top 50 super companies, and Qingtian is just a newcomer to the mall, and it has only been four years since its establishment, but the Motion Picture Experts Group is controlled by the major electronic product companies led by him.
Even if Qingtian is here, it should be a dragon and a tiger.
But Fang Chen is a super-rich man worth tens of billions of dollars, and even Chairman Shengtian Shaofu is far inferior to Fang Chen in terms of wealth.
After all, although Sony is much larger than Qingtian, but Sony's shares are scattered, and the Sony shares in the hands of Chairman Morita Schov do not exceed 10%, let alone him, he doesn't even have 2%, only more than 1%, and this 1% is still more than 1%, looking at the fact that he is about to become the next chairman of Sony, the president, give him additional shares, otherwise he will be low.
Moreover, Fang Chen has great influence in China, the United States and Russia, and this influence is much greater than that of Sony.
Not to mention China and Russia, it is basically Fang Chen's territory, even if it is the United States, which has the weakest relationship with Fang Chen among the three countries, Fang Chen is also a close friend of the US president, one of the big financiers, and can talk to the US president at any time.
This is really a great deterrent to the East Japanese, who are already the father country of the United States, and can flaunt their might with a casual white man.
There was no way, he had no choice but to unite with Albert's group of people, wanting to have a collective banquet for Fang Chen and communicate the matter in advance, but who knew that Fang Chen was so faceless.
But Fang Chen really has the qualifications not to give face.
Seriously, in the face of Fang Chen's wealth and the powerful network behind it, the pickling methods that Sony could use against competitors in the past are every one that can be used on Fang Chen.
Even worried, Fang Chen used his powerful energy to force Sony to back down.
To put it mildly, if Clinton listens to Fang Chen's words and wants to strike at Dongwei or Sony, Sony seems to have no second way except to kneel and surrender.
Even if Russia, under Fang Chen's instigation, speaks to the four northern islands, then in order to win the slightest possibility of returning the four northern islands, Sony can still only bow down and admit defeat, and there is no other way.
However, he believed that Fang Chen and the others would not do this.
After all, this is a major matter related to the country, and if Fang Chen wants to use it to leverage the losses and wins between himself and them, he will definitely have to pay a great price.
If Fang Chen could do this easily, then he wouldn't sit here, planning to compete with Fang Chen, just bow his head and surrender and compromise.
At the very least, he believes that Fang Chen will not use such a big move for the sake of these compressed image standards, and the gains outweigh the losses.
And to be honest, he suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity with what Fang Chen was doing at this time.
In those years, when the Eastern Japanese were defeated and MacArthur came to the Eastern Japanese, wouldn't it be this arrogant and domineering appearance, otherwise, how could he have named the emperor to go to the US embassy to meet him, instead of him taking the initiative to meet the emperor.
"Actually, it's indeed me Meng Lang, no wonder this Fang Dong doesn't give face, but Chairman Sheng Tian Shaofu really can't attend this banquet and wash the dust for this Fang Dong. Dahedian said with a self-deprecating smile.
Hearing what Norio Ohga said, Albert and the others raised their eyebrows, looked at Norio Ohga in surprise, and couldn't help but wonder what Norio Ohga meant by this.
Could it be that Norio Ohga really wants to admit defeat?
Not to mention that this is not a trivial matter, let's just say that if Norio Ohga really plans to do this, why do he still call them over to eat this meal, and also arrange the dinner next door to Fang Chen's treat, isn't this embarrassing for himself?
However, at the thought of Norio Ohga's masochistic tendencies, Albert subconsciously shuddered.
If that's the case, it seems to make sense, after all, no one knows what the perverted idea is, and it's somewhat in line with reality.
But who knows, in the next moment, Ohga Norio slapped the table vigorously, making an earth-shattering loud noise, which dispelled the drunkenness of many people.
Everyone looked at Norio Ohga with a confused face, and they didn't know what kind of trouble Norio Ohga was going to make.
I saw that after Dahe Dianxiong slapped the table, he took advantage of the situation, his face was resolute and resolute, unquestionable, and said categorically: "But no matter what kind of plan this Fang Dong plans and how much relationship background he has, it still can't change the situation that the moving image expert group is counted by us, and the Chinese people have no right to speak in the moving image expert group!"
Hearing this, Albert and the others immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and their expressions when they looked at Norio Oga also changed, this is the Sony they are familiar with, and the Norio Oga is right.
Bursts of eager applause suddenly rang out, and some people even cheered and whistled at Ohga Norio.
Under the attention of everyone, the corners of Dahe Dianxiong's mouth were slightly upturned, and he looked like he was winning.
However, he has already thought about it, if the two situations he said before arise, and the US president and the Russian official intervene for Fang Chen, then he will definitely kneel, kneel immediately, and will not hesitate for a second.
But this possibility should be unlikely.
The next day, early in the morning.
Fang Chen woke up early, but Wu Maocai was dizzy from drinking, and he was still lying on the bed, and he had no intention of waking up.
Yesterday, probably because I didn't see anyone from China for too long, and it was still him, the big boss, who came, so everyone was a little happy to meet their old acquaintances in a foreign country, and under the effect of alcohol, they couldn't stop the car, and almost everyone drank too much.
However, they naturally didn't dare to target him, so a few big girls chattered around and discussed for a long time, and then they ran over with a twist, saying that they wanted to toast him with a glass of wine.
And before he had drunk this glass of wine, the man ran away, and when he was no longer below at all, his eyes were staring at him, and he looked like he was going to be eaten alive.
Since he didn't dare to irrigate him, and Wu Mao happened to be a person who was crazy, this excitement immediately became unrefusal.
However, Wu Maocai's alcohol consumption was really not very good, and he didn't drink it for a while.
It wasn't until noon that Wu Mao woke up slowly, but when he sat at the dining table, he still looked like he was hangover and had not woken up, and his head tilted from time to time, and he was about to fall aside.
"When we're done eating, you go and make an appointment with Sonny for me, and say I'm going to invite them to dinner in the evening. Fang Chen took a bite of Kobe beef and stuffed it into his mouth, and then said casually.
"Why, Ninth Master, why do you want to invite them to dinner, even if it is to eat, they will invite you. ”
As soon as Fang Chen's words came out, Wu Mao woke up instantly, and the whole person jumped three feet high and shouted.
"What's the reason for this, it's about the standard, it's a good thing to discuss it in advance, and it's not good to tear your face at tomorrow's conference, and it's difficult to achieve your goals. Fang Chen still said unhurriedly.
Throughout the ages, major matters have been discussed in private, and they are definitely not discussed on the surface.
After all, once you put it on the bright side, everyone will want to be a little more embarrassed, and even have more, something called self-esteem, some things are not easy to talk about, and it is easy to break the net.
Immediately afterwards, Fang Chen paused and said confidently: "As for inviting them to dinner, believe it or not, if I invite them to dinner, they will be even more uncomfortable than you." ”
