After listening to the views and suggestions of several people, Li Guangyu said to several people: "At present, the competitive environment we are facing is quite bad, and our own basic market is not strong enough, in order to be able to enhance our own heritage, we must accelerate the layout in Greater China, Southeast Asia, Western Europe and even Eastern Europe in the next few years."

Especially in the Greater China region, this is our foundation, especially the mainland market, as long as we have the mainland market as a support, we will have the confidence to compete with the American consortium and the Japanese consortium. ”

He Jin knew that Li Guangyu was talking about what she was listening to, and at present, she was the only president of a group here, and the others were at the helm of the legal department, political research office, secret room, and assistant office, and their focus was not on this aspect.

And in the future, Europe and the United States will mainly target the Phoenix Group led by her, as well as the Oriental Semiconductor Group, Bentley and Zhonghua Electric Groups, which are groups that pose a greater threat to the United States and Japan.

Like real estate, clothing, energy and other groups, they don't care too much, especially real estate companies, the U.S. government will not pay attention.

And Xiang Hengyu Supermarket Group, which involves people's livelihood and can drive local economic development, countries will not deliberately target.

At present, countries are mainly targeting high-tech industries, especially semiconductor and Internet industries.

As long as the Phoenix Group is a top company in the same industry, it is likely that it will always be targeted by the US government, unless the Phoenix Group's technology has fallen behind and there is no threat to American companies, and the US government will not pay attention to the Phoenix Group at that time.

Especially in the case of the Phoenix Group's operating system, the United States hopes that its domestic operating system will dominate the global market, and now the Phoenix Group is seizing their market in various places, and as long as the Phoenix Operating System exists for a day, the US government will not relax its suppression of the Phoenix Group.

She said to Li Guangyu: "I have communicated with the mainland, and I will go to Beijing this weekend to prepare to set up our Phoenix Group direct stores in important cities in the mainland, mainly engaged in computer sales, and there will also be mobile phone sales in several important cities in Guangdong Province, I believe that with the continuous development of the mainland economy, our group's business volume in the mainland will become larger and larger." ”

While Li Guangyu was discussing how to deal with the suppression of the American consortium, in a conference room in Tokyo, Japan, the presidents of many Japanese companies were also discussing the situation they were facing.

The helmsmen of Hitachi, Panasonic, Toshiba, Sony and other companies, which were focused on this time, put forward their own views one after another.

President Matsushita Electric said at the meeting: "In the first quarter of this year, our company's product sales fell by 30% compared with the same period last year, especially in Greater China and Southeast Asia, the decline reached 40%. ”

The reason why the performance in the first quarter of this year has declined so much, mainly because Hengyu Supermarket Group does not sell Panasonic products, you must know that Hengyu Supermarket Group is now the retail hegemon in Asia, second only to Sears and Kmart in the world, Hengyu Supermarket Group has many stores, and there are more than 500 supermarkets in the world that specialize in selling electrical appliances.

The loss of such a platform is a huge blow to Panasonic, even if they cooperate with Wal-Mart and Carrefour and some large regional retail chains, it is still impossible to make up for it.

Falling out with the Li consortium, the damage is not only Panasonic Electric, Sony, Toshiba also suffered heavy losses, the performance in the first quarter of this year has declined sharply compared with last year, and the low-end market of household appliances in Greater China and Southeast Asia is basically seized by Datong Group and China Electric Group.

Now in the face of pressure from the United States, they all need to consider whether it is worth falling out with the Li consortium at this time, and now the Li consortium is not decadent because of the suppression of them and the American consortium, but is constantly making up for its shortcomings.

At the same time, relying on the powerful platform of Hengyu Supermarket Group, many products of the Li Consortium can enter multiple markets around the world, so that they can maintain steady development even if they lose the US and Japanese markets.

The head of Hitachi said: "At present, it seems that the climate of the Lee consortium has become a good thing, and it is supported by the Greater China and East Asian regions and the Commonwealth market, so we are not very useful in beating it, and we can't break the bones at all."

Although the profitability of Hengyu Supermarket Group has some impact, but the losses of our major groups are greater, once these regional markets are occupied by Datong Group and China Electric Group, we will need extremely high costs to get back in the future.

We should now reflect on whether our previous decision was correct, who our current competitors really are, and they are hostile to the American consortium and the Lee consortium at the same time, which is extremely detrimental to us, and we are not yet so strong to defy the crowd. ”

The faces of the two representatives of the Mitsui family and the Yasuda family, who were present at the meeting today, were not very good-looking, and the responsible persons of many of the companies present were obviously questioning their original decisions and expressing dissatisfaction with the resolutions of several major consortia.

They thought that with the United States suppressing in front, they would put a little more pressure on the Li consortium, and the Li consortium would be able to make concessions in some aspects, but they didn't expect the Li consortium to be so arrogant and had no intention of compromising at all, even if it lost the world's first and second largest economic markets, they were not willing to choose to give in.

Moreover, the Li consortium is extremely strong in the channel, but it has led to some of their domestic enterprises that have cooperated with Hengyu supermarket group to suffer heavy losses, and now they either negotiate with the Li consortium, or establish this terminal sales channel by themselves, otherwise their development will be very difficult.

Once Wal-Mart and Carrefour also stop cooperating with them, their corporate performance will drop to a freezing point.

A representative of the Mitsui family said, "I know that many companies are under a lot of pressure right now, but I believe that these difficulties are temporary and that we will soon be able to get back on track.

In order to solve the dilemma of market contraction faced by everyone, and to break the position of the Lee consortium in the retail market in Asia, we Mitsui, Mitsubishi, Sumitomo, Fuji, Dai-ichi Quanye, and Sanwa are ready to join forces with the Ito-Yokado family to expand Ito-Yokado, so that Ito-Yokado and Hengyu Supermarket Group can compete for the market in the retail field. ”

After the incident of the Li consortium, several major Japanese consortia found that it was not possible to have a large retail group, and in order to ensure that their products could be successfully marketed and sold in various places, they were ready to make Ito-Yokado bigger and stronger, so that it could be compared with top retail groups such as Wal-Mart, Carrefour, and Hengyu Supermarket Group.

Such a channel can only be relieved in its own hands, and it is too restrictive to rely on channel providers to improve the performance of enterprises.

Listening to the words of the representative of the Mitsui family, there are still many doubts in their hearts, the Ito family is now one of the close cooperation families of the Lee Foundation, and the Lee Foundation jointly established the Dongxing Real Estate Group.

His family member Ito Kazuki is the vice president of the Feiyu Group, and her husband Zhou Zhigang is the president of the newly established Heung Kong Petrochemical Group of the Li Foundation.
