For Nishida's insistence, Hu Yiting said bluntly: "We will pass Toshiba's quality certification, but time waits for no one, iPod sales are imminent, we have sufficient stock in the Japanese warehouse, and the first release on Valentine's Day on February 14 cannot be changed." Today, February 10th, there are only 4 days left! It's too late to distribute the goods, but I still hope to try to hurry up. ”

Nishida knew that Hu Yiting wanted him to be accommodating, but insisted: "I'm sorry, I'm very sorry, Toshiba's situation is like this." ”

Hu Yiting was silent, and said in his heart that since Toshiba promised to help iPod enter the other two large chain electrical appliance stores, the result was quite good.

At this time, Kang Yaoxiang asked: "May I ask Mr. Nishida, how long does it take to pass Toshiba's quality test?"

Nishida: "It's two weeks at the shortest. ”

Kang Yaoxiang: "Can you finish it in a week?"

Nishida smiled: "Impossible. ”

Kang Yaoxiang looked at Hu Yiting, Hu Yiting knew what he meant, and asked himself if he was worth exchanging better terms for Toshiba's concessions. A better condition would be to use Toshiba's Smart Media card expansion interface on next-generation iPods.

From the long-term perspective of customers, it is best to choose the MultiMedia Card (MMC) card standard that Siemens and SanDisk will launch this year, because the MMC card size is only 32MM*24MM, while Toshiba's SM card size is as high as 45MM* 37MM, which is larger than the MMC card, and the sm card only has flash memory modules and interfaces, and there is no integrated control module. For manufacturers, SM cards are so troublesome to use, and this is also the reason why they die out quickly.

Originally, Hu Yiting felt that if Toshiba was unwilling to provide channel dealers, then he could exchange this condition, but since Toshiba was very cooperative as soon as his attitude came up, there was no need for Chongguang to find guilt himself.

And at this moment, Nishida thinks that the wider Chongguang's new product based on large-capacity flash memory is spread, the more beneficial it will be to Toshiba flash memory chip sales, so he does not want to use SM card promotion as a threat, but objectively reduces the pressure of Chongguang, he didn't expect that if he proposed to promote the SM card format as the premise of exchange, Chongguang is ready to pinch his nose and develop a model with SM card expansion in the next generation of products.

At this time, Nishida smiled: "We at Toshiba generally do not provide channels for other manufacturers, but iPod is a special product, and if it sells well, it will be a win-win situation for both of us, so after discussion, the board of directors agreed to your request, and does not plan to charge additional fees." ”

Hu Yiting nodded and said, "Thank you very much, your company is all understanding people." In fact, for Toshiba, this is just a gesture, and it costs nothing to put the iPod in the promotion catalog of your color TV refrigerator electrical products. ”

"This kid is easy to say. Nishida scolded, and then he asked Shigemitsu which delivery company to choose in Japan, after all, once he started to distribute goods to small retailers, he would have to face the kind of small orders from 5 and 10 small e-commerce companies from all over the world.

Hu Yiting said with a smile: "I haven't decided yet, because I didn't know that there was still this possibility, Toshiba opened up a new idea for us." ”

Nishida laughed: "If you can, I would like you to choose East Japan Logistics, which is a company under the Mitsui Foundation, through which Toshiba's color TVs and other products are also distributed." ”

Hu Yiting looked at Wang Lili, who was in charge of international sales, she nodded and said: "Then we will contact them, at present, we use the YAMATO logistics group's home delivery service, they claim to be the largest logistics company in Japan, but as long as the company you introduce is not higher than his price and cost, we must choose to stand on the side of friends." ”

Nishida was very happy to get a favor and said with a smile, "President Honda of East Japan Logistics would be very happy to know that you said that, and I think we can have a meal together tonight." ”

Hu Yiting said with a smile: "Of course, getting to know more business partners is also the purpose of our visit to Japan. ”

Nishida was also very satisfied with Hu Yiting's words, so he began to introduce Toshiba's other products, and proposed to arrange for Shigemitsu to visit Toshiba's factory, hoping that Shigemitsu would focus on Toshiba's companies in the future. Shigemitsu also expressed interest in seeing the production environment of Japanese companies, so the two sides hit it off.

Speaking of Sino-Japanese friendship, Nishida said that this is related to Japan's geopolitical security, and he fully supports the strengthening of cooperation between China and Japan.

The meeting, which was originally scheduled to end within an hour from 10 o'clock, lasted for half an hour, and at noon, Nishida invited Shigemitsu and everyone to eat at a Japanese restaurant near Shiba Park not far away.

Hu Yiting offered to pick up his fiancée to eat together, and Xitian was a little surprised that he took the woman on a business trip, but immediately smiled and asked someone to send a car to pick up someone at the hotel.

When Tong Mu came to the restaurant, everyone had already arrived for a while, drinking tea and chatting. At lunch, Toshiba had his secretary and two subordinates in addition to Nishida, a total of four people, Hu Yiting introduced Tong Mu to Nishida, Nishida praised Tong Mu again and again for being too beautiful, he was a great beauty in China, said Tong Mu blushed and was happy, and then suggested that Hu Yiting they try the tile baked soba noodles here.

After lunch, Hu Yiting simply took Tong Mu for an afternoon visit, and ran Toshiba through a large electronic component factory in the port area that mainly produces capacitors, but he was accompanied by the director of the international business section of Toshiba's computer division.

After Hu Yiting returned to the room, he leaned on the sofa and closed his eyes to recuperate, thinking about the factory he had just visited, and said to Tong Mu: "You have seen the Japanese factory, the workshop is clean and tidy, the equipment maintenance is very good, the main production line employees add up to more than 70 people, the operation is orderly, the whole factory has more than 200 people, and the annual output value is more than 100 million US dollars, which is very powerful." ”

Tong Mu stood behind him and massaged his shoulder: "I don't understand, hehe, it's really clean, but people take it out for us to visit, it must be the most face-saving factory." ”

"Wife, you can do it! That's right, it's always the model factory that customers visit, but because of this, you can see the gap. ”

Hu Yiting held the hand massaged by Tong Mu on his shoulder: "We also want to engage in the manufacture of electronic components, which are the capacitors made by people today." ”

"Is there a big gap?"

"It's so angry. Look at their section leader, when introducing the parameters of the new products they are developing in the laboratory, look at the joy, keep comparing the parameters of Chinese products, Lao Kang frowned when he heard it, Gong Linsheng smiled bitterly, it was really ...... Alas......"

Tong Mu gently pinched Hu Yiting's fingers: "Don't think so much. You don't sleep, and you have dinner at night. ”

"Not tired. ”

"Hmm...... The soba noodles are delicious, and the freshly ground wasabi dipped in sashimi is really different from the ones eaten in China. Tong Mu changed the subject.

"Haha, you like to eat more at night. ”

"Well, will you visit tomorrow?"

"I went to Chiba Prefecture early in the morning to see their wafer factory, and when I came back at noon, I didn't go, I went to the streets, and I called the international student translator introduced by the embassy and asked her to accompany you, and don't look at it and buy some gifts. ”

"Okay. ”
