734. Global Fighting
Speaking of whiteness, in fact, Zhou Fangyuan had some thoughts about whiteness before.
The reason is simple, because whiteness will be the largest traffic channel in China in the future. Although at the stage of Zhou Fangyuan's rebirth, Tieba is no longer good, but Baidu's search, knowing, encyclopedia and other products are still majestic, and they are not at all worthy of any other similar products in China. It's like a search engine made up by other websites...... Sorry, not at all an opponent of whiteness. It's a pity, Boss Li's good hand is not to say that it is played poorly, but it is really not very good, at least the terrible traffic has not been able to make good use of it, and it is higher than a bidding ranking, properly smearing on his face. To be honest, if it weren't for the whiteness search engine is really powerful, and it has already become one of the most commonly used websites for netizens to surf the Internet, it is estimated that the life of whiteness will be very difficult.
Zhou Fangyuan is not a person who likes to kill everything, at least for him now, the Yuanfang Group is strong enough, and there is no need to knife Baidu anymore.
In the TAB of the original space-time, TA is really powerful, B is slightly worse, and in this space-time, the TA that has been cut off its important tentacles is actually about the same as the status of whiteness, so the result is very good.
Otherwise, if Zhou Fangyuan is really willing, he can directly get an e-commerce website, relying on the Yuanfang Group now, not to mention squeezing Brother Ma to death, it will definitely make Brother Ma feel bad; In terms of whiteness, on the contrary, it is the most difficult to influence, Zhou Fangyuan wants to maintain a situation of one super and many strong in the domestic Internet industry, Yuanfang Group is that one super, how strong is TAB, and pig farms and other companies, in short, such a general balance is what he prefers, he doesn't want to directly squeeze the other party to death, it makes no sense.
......
The launch of the I2 phone caused a global sensation even more than the I1, with Apple and Samsung releasing their own smartphones a week after the I2 phone was released and 10 days after the release of the I2 phone, respectively.
I have to say that Apple is still powerful, this is their first smartphone in the true sense, directly equipped with a camera, and the system of Apple's mobile phone, without accidents at all, uses their own system. It's just how to say it, after all, the I series mobile phones seized the market earlier, so in terms of market share, after statistics, distant mobile phones currently occupy more than 65% of the global smartphone market, accounting for about 45% of the global mobile phone market, and are already the world's largest mobile phone manufacturers.
The number of domestic factories has increased to seven, and there are more large and small manufacturers of various cooperation, and all factories are working overtime to catch up with the production of mobile phones that are sold all over the world. Of course, different countries will have different agents and distributors, Yuanfang Technology has not been able to establish its own sales network on a global scale, not to mention Yuanfang Technology, Apple and Samsung in the previous life, at the peak, could not cover their sales network around the world, after all, different countries have different national conditions, and even different regions have different situations in different regions, local protection is not a domestic patent, and there are various local protections abroad.
Therefore, if you want to make your products, especially physical products, be able to sell them all over the world, you must have local or domestic distributors to cooperate.
Therefore, in this regard, the world's major manufacturers, as long as they are in the physical business category, do not have a very good way. And to be honest, the financial pressure of building your own sales network or something is indeed too great. As of 16 years, there are 4 municipalities directly under the central government, 293 prefecture-level cities, and 366 county-level cities, adding up to more than 600 cities, not more, an average of three stores in a city, which is more than 1,800 stores. 1,800 specialty stores, if all built by themselves, not to mention purchase, but to talk about rent, is an astronomical amount. There is also the renovation, and the service staff and management personnel...... It's just impossible.
This is only China, of course, but China is a big place, but no matter how big China is, compared with Western Europe, the two sides are about the same level, so look at the world? If you really want to build it yourself, the rent alone will exceed one billion yuan a year...... Yes, the profit is high, after all, there is no layer of agents to harvest, and there is no need to leave profit margins for agents, but the difficulty of management will rise unlimitedly. Restaurants are open all over the world, but in many regions, they must also have high agents or franchises, in terms of global management capabilities, can Apple pass these retail or catering groups? Even these big guys can't bear the way of operating global stores, how can Apple afford it?
Yuanfang Group is even more unbearable, so in addition to some direct stores in major cities in China, United States, Britain, France and Germany, even within the same city, there are other agents' stores, as well as cooperative sales stores, and it is not at all possible that Yuanfang Group can intervene.
And there is another layer of advantages of getting dealers, that is, in the process of communication and negotiation with the local government, local dealers have their own channels and methods, and they don't need to worry about the distant group at all, they are only responsible for delivery, and give a reasonable recommended price, and then sit back and wait to collect the money. Don't think that only domestic officials are difficult to deal with, in fact, on a global scale, there are no officials in that country who are easy to deal with. There are all kinds of cats all over the world, but in different forms. Do you think that the officials of the United States do not make money? The officials of the United States also make money, but the means and purposes of their money making are different from those in China.
The money made by the officials of the United States cannot simply be called making money, and the money made by the officials of the United States should be renamed as political contributions.
The so-called political contribution refers to the political donation received by a political party organization or individual candidate from its own citizens and organizations. Political donations are a normal phenomenon in democratic politics, and regular election campaigns and the daily political activities of political parties and candidates require a large amount of money, and it is difficult to meet the needs of political parties or candidates with their own assets, and they must be raised from society in various ways.
However, political donations also provide an opportunity for individuals or groups with economic strength to use money to influence political operations, which gives rise to the "golden power politics", so many countries have regulated political donations in detail from the law, such as the Federal Election Campaign Act of the United States, the Political Parties Act of Germany, the Political Funds Restriction Act of Fuso, the Political Funds Law of Nanxian and the Political Donation Law of Monkeys, etc. Although the content of the norms on political contributions varies from country to country due to different national conditions, there are also commonalities.
Perhaps domestic officials ask for money to improve their own lives, while foreign officials sound more lofty. But what is the difference in reality? What is the purpose of foreign countries in making political donations and improving their political status? Isn't it still changing their own lives?
And don't be naïve to mean that the money is really donated, many times, people need your insurance money, you must give it. Yes, but don't ask someone to help you solve something in the company, and if you have the ability, you can solve it yourself.
Therefore, it seems to be boiled, but in fact, there are more kinds of black in it, but most people don't know it very well.
Of course, in order to avoid the granting of political contributions from being linked to the transfer of benefits or political corruption, the legislation of various countries also imposes appropriate restrictions on the providers of political contributions. For example, the Federal Election Campaign Act stipulates that donations from foreigners, persons with contractual relations with the government, national banks, companies, labor unions, and third parties shall not be accepted. The German Political Parties Act prohibits donations from political foundations, parliamentary groups and parliamentary bodies at all levels, as well as from corporate bodies, societies and foundations engaged in public welfare, charitable or ecclesiastical activities, as well as donations entrusted to professional bodies, companies with a government shareholding of more than 25% and more than 500 euros, as well as donations that are clearly accompanied by an attempt to make a specific economic or political interest.
Permitted donors under the Political Donation Act include Monkey Citizens who are at least 21 years old, companies controlled by Monkeys, whose main or part of their business is conducted in Singapore, and political parties that nominate candidates for election, in addition to being prohibited by law, including Monkey Citizens under the age of 21, and bodies that are not legally registered as legal persons, including business establishments, associations, trade unions, mutual aid associations, charities, cooperatives, trusts, etc.
In addition, since the amount of political funds is a decisive factor in whether a political party or its candidate can win a campaign, in order to create a fair and equitable atmosphere of competition and ensure the fair distribution of political resources, countries have also set a ceiling on the amount of political contributions. For example, the Bipartisan Election Reform Act stipulates that the nomination primaries and formal elections are respectively considered as one election, and in each election, an individual's contribution to a candidate may not exceed $2,000, and the total annual contribution is $37,500, and the annual contribution to a political action committee may not exceed $5,000, and the contribution to a political party national committee may not exceed $25,000. On April 2, 2014, the Supreme Court of the United States also ruled that the restriction on the total amount of political contributions to elections violated the First Amendment to the United States, which means that there will be no upper limit on the amount of political contributions to elections in the United States in the future.
In the case of Fuso, the amount of donations made by individuals to political parties and financial organizations designated by political parties is limited to 20 million yen, and the annual donation limit is 1.5 million yen for the same recipient, and the amount of donations to companies and labor unions is limited to 100 million yen depending on the total capital and the number of members.
The purpose of the disclosure of the income and expenditure of political donations is the most important part of the relevant laws regulating political donations in various countries, and its purpose is to enable the public to better understand the support forces behind political parties and the policy direction of political parties, so as to prevent political parties from favoring the interests of individuals or groups with economic power in the formation of policies.
The Federal Campaign Act stipulates that all receipts and expenditures of more than $200 in a year must be reported to the Federal Campaign Committee on the name, address, amount, and date of the donor, as well as the purpose, amount, and date of the expenditure. The German Political Parties Act stipulates that for donations of more than 10,000 euros to political parties or their local organizations, political parties must indicate the name, address and amount of the donor in their financial reports, and if a single donation exceeds 50,000 euros, it must immediately report to the President of the Bundestag and publish the name of the donor in the Federal Gazette. The Fuso Political Funding Restriction Act requires political parties and political organizations designated by political parties to record in detail the amount and date of income and expenditure of political funds, the purpose of expenditure, the name, address, and occupation of the recipients of income or expenditure, and the name, location, and date of the donation after filing a report to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications or the local election management commission.
In short, there are limitations, and there are dark parts, and this thing is definitely not as white and flawless as the media promotes.
Therefore, local governments around the world, all kinds of small rules have gone to the sea, and it is impossible to expect a group to take the global market by itself, in the final analysis, it is still necessary to rely on local distributors. Even if it is a world-famous e-commerce website like Amazon, it seems to bypass the dealer, but in fact, the express delivery to different places, basically the local courier is responsible for the delivery, and as a result, there is still no change, just a change in the form of cooperation.
Yuanfang Technology has nearly 20% of the profits, in fact, it is given to local distributors in various countries, but this is fine, at least these people will help to sell Yuanfang Technology's mobile phones after getting the benefits, and if the benefits are enough, they can even help suppress the mobile phones of other manufacturers.
Nowadays, the global smartphone market has entered the stage of "separation of three kingdoms", Yuanfang Technology has taken the first throne, Apple is close behind, Samsung is the worst, Samsung's first smartphone, the performance is really bad, and it was pressed in Nanxian and couldn't get out. In the United States and Huaxia, Yuanfang Technology and Apple are the main targets, and in other countries, Samsung mobile phones are completely pressed to the ground because they have no obvious quality or price advantage. Of course, in the Nanxian area, Samsung is still more powerful, even if it is their own land, Apple is better, distant technology is more restricted here, and the I series mobile phones are completely unsellable here.
