Brussels, the capital of Belgium, the headquarters of the European Commission.

Several major member states of the Council of the European Union, out of various considerations, have closely followed the footsteps of the United States and implemented comprehensive sanctions against Xinghai Technology.

But they never imagined that Xinghai Technology's R&D capabilities were so strong that it would launch hundreds of core control systems in one go at the Industrial Expo.

After the preliminary analysis of experts, it was found that the performance of these core control systems is in the top range in their respective fields, and once fully introduced to the market, competing products in Germany, France, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Italy, Spain and other countries will be seriously impacted.

After two days of silence, Germany was the first to lose its breath and proposed to convene an impromptu conference.

As of 2021, China has become Germany's largest trade exporter, with an amount of more than 120 billion US dollars, and the first category of export products is mechanical and electrical products, the second largest category is transportation products, and the third category is optics, clocks and watches, and medical equipment.

The main reason why these products sell well in China is, of course, because of quality, but it is undeniable that in addition to excellent quality, the control system of German products is undoubtedly very good.

Like Bosch, Siemens, Heidenhein, etc.

In particular, Bosch and Siemens have annual sales of more than 100 billion yuan in China.

The products launched by Xinghai Technology have a high degree of overlap with Bosch, Siemens and Heidenhain, etc., and once they are fully launched into the market, they will bring a devastating blow to these companies.

In the huge oval conference room, representatives of seven or eight major countries engaged in heated discussions.

As for the representatives of countries such as Greece, Ukraine, Croatia, Romania, and Slovakia, they are completely playing soy sauce.

After an open discussion to no avail, six countries, Germany, France, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Italy, Spain, and Portugal, held closed meetings.

Dutch commissioner Laurent Wilcotez, straight to the point, said: "I think there should be tougher sanctions against this company. ”

"Bad pen!" said German Commissioner Philipp Moore in his heart.

Of course, the Netherlands does not matter, they are China's largest customer in Europe, with a trade deficit of hundreds of billions of dollars, and they have to import large quantities of light industrial products such as furniture toys, leather products, ceramics and glass, textiles and raw materials from China every year.

And they are not worried about China deliberately selling at a high price, because there are still two competing countries, Germany and Belgium, and they can enjoy the feeling that the customer is God.

On the other hand, in the field of lithography machine industry, China has to kneel and beg the Netherlands, otherwise one will not be happy, and the lithography machine and supporting parts will not be sold to you, and you can only stare dryly.

So it's not a big deal to see the excitement in the Netherlands.

"We have a free trade agreement with China, and we can prevent them from entering on the grounds of national security, but we have no reason to block industrial products. ”

"How can there be no reason? Their product is written in CX language, and the underlying source code has been opaque, and this alone can completely ban their product. ”

"That's not a good reason, people have already promised to build data storage centers in Europe, and they are subject to national inspections. ”

"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, what the hell is going to ......"

……

Stuttgart, Germany.

While the Council of the European Union was discussing, the directors of Bosch headquarters in Germany were also meeting to discuss.

If you want to say who has the greatest impact on the products launched by Xinghai Technology, it is undoubtedly Bosch and Siemens.

Bosch and Xinghai Technology have more than 40 overlapping products in the field of Internet of Things, and dozens of overlapping categories such as industrial manufacturing.

Once Xinghai Technology completes the layout of the industrial chain in China, Bosch will suffer a catastrophe.

And this time, presumably, will not exceed five years.

In five years, there is a 90 percent chance that Bosch will be completely driven out of the Chinese market.

Spike Richard, the head of Bosch, asked, "What do you think you should do?"

"Their products aren't on the market yet, so let's wait until they are on the market. ”

"I think we should retreat and see if there is any possibility of cooperation?"

“……”

The directors in the conference room expressed their opinions, but none of them were very reliable, and Richard's brow gradually furrowed.

At this moment, a mellow voice said slowly, "I wonder if any of you here have carefully studied Xinghai Technology?"

Richard followed the voice and looked over to a young man in his mid-30s who was sitting at the very end of his left hand side.

The young man had thick blond hair, a handsome face with a faint smile, and sat there quietly, exuding a faint aristocratic temperament.

Seeing this young man, Richard's frowning brows suddenly relaxed, and a relaxed smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

This young man had a resounding nickname: Robert Bosch Jr.

Yes, this young man is the fourth-generation grandson of the founder of Bosch, Robert Bosch.

In 1891, Robert Bosch gave birth to his first son, who gave him the same name, also Robert Bosch. But the son died at the age of 30.

Later, Robert Bosch grew old and gave birth to a second son at the age of 67, and in order to distinguish himself from the first dead son, Robert Bosch named his second son "Robert Bosch Jr."

This habit of choosing a name has been passed down ever since.

The heirs of the Bosch family are called Robert Bosch Jr.

The other directors in the conference room also had good-natured smiles on their faces.

Before the many directors in the room could speak, Robert Bosch Jr. followed suit: "I have studied this company and I know it very well.

Although there are some problems with the company's structure and talent pipeline, to be honest, I can't find any real weaknesses in it.

Because it's hard to believe that more than 80 percent of the shares of a company with annual sales of 30 billion euros are owned by a single person. ”

Hearing Little Robert's words, there was immediately a buzz in the conference room.

Apparently many people are not yet aware of this fact.

A high-tech company with annual sales of more than 30 billion euros, once listed......

Everyone was shocked by this fact.

"Is this true?"

"Where did you get the news?"

"It's just incredible, how the hell did he do it?"

“……”

Little Robert coughed softly, and after the noise in the conference room subsided, his face became serious and said: "This person is very smart, it took him less than a month to get rid of all the internal commercial spies that he had accumulated over the years!"

And externally, with the protection of the top level of the Chinese government, it is almost impossible to kill people with a knife......"

Robert Jr. was about to continue, but Richard interrupted: "Okay, today's meeting is here first, adjournment." ”

After everyone left, Richard criticized: "I know what you want to say, but there are some things that must not be made exceptions!"

Robert Jr. smashed his mouth and said, "You know, we don't have many chances in a head-to-head confrontation, and the only way I can think of is ......"
