Chapter 446: You Can't Imagine the Happiness of a Rich Man
There is no doubt that Akio Morita was "not afraid to speculate on the treacherous extent of the Chinese businessmen with the worst malice."
There is no doubt that Gu Biao is definitely worthy of the highest degree of treachery among Chinese merchants.
That's right, Gu Biao's proposal, in addition to solving the purpose of product quality reputation, optimizing after-sales maintenance, and strengthening user monitoring, also has the biggest conspiracy, which is to infiltrate the dealer marketing network that Sony has smashed out in the United States for many years.
When doing the 2B business of "facing operators", Gu Biao relied on Shi Yuzhu to make a specific move, and successfully pried it off once, so that Tiankun from a position without a marketing network foundation to successfully sit on an equal footing with the first-line arcade operators in the United States in channel control.
However, in the 2C business, Tiankun has just started from selling handheld computers last year, and now it is still far from Sony, otherwise there is no need to supply Sony.
If this time under the banner of "consumer first, quality and experience first", if it is done again, maybe in the United States, Tiankun can also reach an order of magnitude with Sony in terms of distribution channel mastery.
"Under the pretext of quality first, it infiltrates the customer network from after-sales, penetrates all the way to pre-sales, and finally pries out collaborators", which is an important method for Huawei to encroach on its original competitors. Lucent, Cisco, and Alcatel all fell under Huawei's tricks step by step. As a practitioner of the top giants in the industry, Gu Biao certainly has this insight in his later years, and it is impossible not to use poisonous tricks.
But Akio Morita was too vigilant after all, so he didn't agree for the time being - it can be seen from here that Sony is an old yin beep at the same level as Ericsson, so the "world's five major communication infrastructure giants" in later generations, the other four were stabbed in the back and killed, only Ericsson survived and escaped Huawei's infiltration. In later generations, the two families each invested 50% to establish "Suo Ai", which can be regarded as a union.
Gu Biao knew that if he missed a blow, he didn't care about himself.
It is not easy to get the conditions of cooperation in the previous technology today, so let's maintain friendship and think in the long run.
What's more, Gu Biao is very confident about the list of other guests to be introduced to Akio Morita in the next month or so. Gu Biao knew that he could wait for an assist later.
So, there's no rush.
"Since President Morita has concerns, let's take a long-term view. By the way, next Friday, Professor Kissinger will have a meeting with a few old colleagues, all of whom are former and even incumbent. If President Morita is interested in being an owner, I can recommend it to the professor. The nature of the family banquet is that you can bring a female companion, but you can't bring a subordinate. β
After beating, sweet dates should be given, which is the rule of the rivers and lakes.
Hearing Gu Biao say this, Akio Morita also knew that the previous matter had been revealed, and his face became kind: "Okay, it is a great honor to have the opportunity to organize a banquet for Professor Kissinger. β
"Then I'll go first. Gu Biao got up and said goodbye.
Akio Morita watched Gu Biao leave, and secretly thought in his heart: I had always heard that this person was lustful, but he had never invited him to the amphibious club for in-depth hospitality. Judging from today's performance, either the rumors are untrue, or Gu Biao's aesthetics don't like Yanmar.
Thinking about it, Akio Morita instructed the person in charge of the club: "Go, prepare well, and arrange a few Japanese and Korean girls for next week's banquet." β
"Yes, President. β
β¦β¦
The technical rectification plan negotiated between Gu Biao and Akio Morita was implemented very vigorously by the R&D departments of Tiankun and Sony.
After listening to Gu Ao's detailed instructions, Schulhoff was fully responsible for negotiating and docking with Sony.
On the phone, Schulhoff did not forget to confirm with Gu Biao: "Boss, has our suggestion of 'jointly building self-built after-sales channels' been seen through by Sony?
Gu Biao: "Don't worry, I have my own way to find another assist." You implemented the technical rectification first, and you don't have to worry about that. β
Five days later, Gu Biao returned to the final sprint of helping Kissinger proofread and revise the draft. From the 18th to the 22nd, I didn't have a day idle, and even the 18th was a Sunday.
Finally, on the 22nd, the book was changed to Kissinger's final satisfactory version and presented to the publisher for publication.
"It's rare that you still work hard to learn in the end, and you can pay Zizi. Kissinger put down this "On China", which he had spent more than a year on and off, and he could be regarded as putting down a stone in his heart.
He lit a cigar and asked thoughtfully: "By the way, tomorrow night's lunch, you recommend Akio Morita to treat you, is he okay there? β
"Don't worry, President Morita is the most polite and measured, I'm going to help you fight the front station. Gu Biao agreed, signaling the tutor to rest assured.
Kissinger didn't ask too much and let him take care of himself.
Coming out of Kissinger's office, Gu Biao first returned to the car and made a car phone, and confirmed the guest list for tomorrow to Akio Morita again.
Tomorrow's banquet, everyone will bring their wives, and even Akio Morita specially asked his wife to fly from Kissinger to Watston to attend the banquet together in order to cooperate with Kissinger and Scholz.
Gu Biao scratched his head and found that he didn't have a female companion to bring, although it was not rude, but it was also possible to make others feel abrupt and uncomfortable.
However, since it was in Watsonton, he had no choice, and after thinking about it a little, he could only go to Ye Kun for a favor.
The conscience of heaven and earth, he has been studying in the United States for two years, and he has always been in a state of pure heart and few desires, so he did not find a way to vent his heart for the impatience of the United States.
At most, every winter and summer vacation or the opportunity to return to China, I will seize the opportunity to fight against Xiao Sui and Mina's poetry. Or wait for Han Ting to come to the United States once a month to discuss business.
The reason why Gu Biao is so clean and self-conscious is also a little unhappy, there is a kind of "I even refused Ye Kun, I don't want to hurt it, if I find another woman instead, specially used to act in the United States, will it humiliate the other party even more".
Although he will not be humiliated, no matter what he does, he has nothing to do with Ye Kun. But when a person's own heart is empty, it is not clear to explain it.
Gu Biao sent the bodyguard back, and he himself drove a Cadillac Braham from Georgetown to the embassy district.
Oh, I forgot to mention, since he changed to a Cadillac Braham as a business car in Xiangjiang more than half a month ago, and returned to the United States, he has also spent three and a half million dollars to get one.
As someone who is part of the "Billion Dollar Club", this is still necessary.
It's just that his Braham is definitely a little worse than the configuration of Li Gen and the old immortals, especially in terms of bulletproof and security.
As for the sports car for casual fun, there is no need to get a Porsche Rinspeed, and it is enough to continue to drive the Pontiac Firebird of the same model as the "Thunderbolt Ranger".
When Braham stopped at the door of the embassy in the United States, the eyes of the bodyguards changed slightly, not because they were envious or like they were facing a great enemy, but because they thought that some American dignitaries who had not been notified had suddenly visited.
After all, this car is a little shorter than the president's, and you can't see the difference if you don't look carefully outside.
However, after the dark window glass was rolled down, their eyes instantly returned to normal, because they recognized that it was only Gu Biao in the car.
Gu Biao handed out the documents from the car window, and the other party took a routine and rigorous look at them, and then let them go.
Christmas is still three days away, and the embassy is also filled with the atmosphere of the upcoming festival, and the Christmas tree is decorated with decoration. It is also a way to do as the locals do in order to receive friendly greetings from Americans on the day of the holiday.
"Xiao Ye, Gu Biao is coming to you again. A colleague walked into Ye Kun's office by the way, so he helped to bring the words, and looked at her with a strange expression.
"I guess I'm having to work again. Ye Kun tidied up his clothes and walked into the reception room. The sentence just now was not very loud, but it was made sure that the colleagues present could hear it, and the tone was very humble and not arrogant.
Sister can't carry that kind of black pot suspicion, every time this guy Gu Biao looks for her in the past two years, he has business.
As soon as he entered the door, Ye Kun first gave him a dismount: "Big rich, I changed cars again, I came to the embassy to show off my wealth." β
Gu Biao smiled: "Do you still want to meet guests, I didn't change the car." β
Ye Kun originally helped Gu Biao to do "Plan A", which can be regarded as "courageous".
Although she hadn't seen Gu Biao for two months, as the deputy director of the Embassy's Press and Liaison Office, she was very familiar with the world situation happening outside.
Therefore, Ye Kun knew how much Gu Biao had profited in this wave.
Before he could get down to business and invitation, he was subjected to some interrogation, and to a greater extent than when he came back from the auction and explained to Kissinger.
"You did the things between Argentina and New Zealand! In order to make $1 billion, there was such an earth-shattering accident!" Ye Kun was in the secret room, and he pierced Gu Biao straight to the point.
Gu Biao: "You think so in your heart, I won't refute it, but the secrecy above is not necessarily good, and there may be leaks in the sieve." I hope you can hold back and don't report up. β
Ye Kun: "So far, for your safety, I have not reported to the authorities. It's also a shame that you meet someone like me who is indifferent to fame and fortune, if you meet an official fan and want to show yourself for the country again, the second secretary will be promoted to the first secretary, and the deputy department will be promoted to the right department, and you will definitely be sold. β
If the people in the system can mediate the game between the state and the Bretanians, they will do their part to end the Bretannes in the economic field as soon as possible, and urge a final statement.
Then, this credit is definitely enough for a unit of this level stationed in the United States, and the second secretary becomes the first secretary.
Gu Biao felt a little guilty, and could only say: "But your performance qualifications are almost enough-you have been the second secretary for almost two years, and you are about to be promoted to the first secretary, so you don't need so much credit."
If you cut out my real role and only talk about your covert influence on the United States' attitude towards New Zealand and Brazzaville through me, although it is not as much credit as the whole thing, it is enough for you.
Besides, I know you swore that you wouldn't betray me to ask you for help, and if you're not reliable, you won't have a chance to help in the first place. β
Gu Biao couldn't help but say a little: that is, if you change to someone with no background, the qualifications of the second secretary for two years, plus the extra credit this time, are not enough to become a secret. But Ye Kun has a good background, which is enough.
It's just that Gu Biao knows Ye Kun too well, and knows that she hates others the most in her life for treating her as an official for three generations, saying that she was promoted by Zuyin, Gu Biao naturally won't say this kind of thing that touches the other party's scales.
Ye Su stretched out his lower lip angrily, blew a lock of bangs hanging in front of his forehead, and was very helpless: "Okay, don't be angry with those little people, I don't want to settle accounts with you." Let's settle down, okay. What are you looking for me this time, you have something to say. β
She didn't mean to settle accounts with Gu Wei, but this guy refused to let the girl go at all.
"Tomorrow there will be a small dinner at the 'Amphibious Club' of President Sony Morita. President Morita was the one who took my place as a professor, and I would invite Secretary of State Schultz, former Secretary of Commerce Peterson, and a few other guests, all of whom could bring female companions.
I'm afraid that I'm alone without a female companion, and the other VIPs feel awkward, and after thinking about it, I really don't know anyone else in Watsengton, so I can only ask you for a favor, if you have an important task, when I didn't say it. β
Ye Kun's eyes struggled for a moment, and he said proudly: "I don't count this matter, I have to work the night shift, and I have to ask Ambassador Yang to decideβwhether this kind of task is worth my execution." β
With that, Ye Kun stepped on the lotus step and went out, and after fifteen minutes, he came back with a businesslike face.
"Ambassador Yang said that this is a political task that is conducive to the etiquette and harmony of diplomatic relations, and I will reluctantly accompany you to it. β
