"Mr. Lin, are you planning to invest in a software bank?" After all, the current software bank is not very powerful, and it is mainly a chain store in Japan, and it is really the kind of company that sells software, magazines, and comic books.

If you only look at the current main business, SoftBank is not worth investing in. After all, Shinsei Electronics Group has set up more than 500 self-operated stores in Japan itself, covering the entire major cities of Japan. Even if it can't cover the place, there is also cooperation with local sales and after-sales channels, any town, can buy the products of the new venture electronics group, there is no user want to pay for it, but find that there is no place to buy the embarrassing phenomenon.

In many times in the world, some advertisements and brands are very attractive products, and after they are launched, consumers find that they can only buy them in a few places, so that consumers have to buy alternative products.

This kind of channel sinking is insufficient, and the new venture electronics group will definitely not do it. If the product is out of stock for the time being due to factors such as capacity stocking, it will be forgotten, but the channel must be spread to the limit.

Of course, SoftBank does not only have those retail channels, in fact, SoftBank is also ambitious to create a business media, using the creation of a media to study the economy, to study the economy more deeply, which is to investigate and analyze the market and prepare for the follow-up business plan.

Similar to SoftBank's other major organization, the well-known IDG in the United States, in fact, this organization is essentially a market research organization, publishing tens of thousands of research and analysis articles on technology-related markets and technologies every year. Essentially, it is a media and think tank agency, and many customers buy its materials after great success. Later, IDG changed from a think tank to a venture capital institution, and in the world, this institution is especially good at investing in relatively small start-ups in the emerging industry, and relying on its professional analysis and attracting partners from major markets to join, it has a relatively high success rate in the field of venture capital.

In a sense, some companies have already done a series of foreshadowing before they succeed, and they are short of capital and opportunities. Once the capital is over, the opportunity comes. Well, it simply makes no sense that such a well-prepared high-quality enterprise will not succeed.

"Why not, SoftBank is a promising investment company, and with its influence in Japan, it can quickly open up the Japanese telecom operator market. Lin Qi said confidently, "Not only the current business of Pangu Computer needs the support of the network channels of telecom operators, but more importantly, in the future mobile phones and even mobile phones are becoming more and more like computers, the channels of telecom operators are the key! Cooperation with the mainstream telecom operators of a country is the fastest way to sell network-related terminal products to the world." ”

Xiao was taken aback, and from the news confided in what he had just said, investing in SoftBank was only the point of a new strategy conceived by Lin Qi. In fact, this new strategy may be beyond imagination.

"Mr. Lin, what do you think?"

However, it was adjusted soon, and Mr. Lin's thinking was always very strange, but he has always grasped the market and never missed. He can only study hard, even if he can't do Lin Qi, he can serve as Lin Qi's assistant for a long time in the future, and he can sit on one side.

"In the future, Xinchuang Electronics Group will definitely not only make computers, but also make various Internet terminals. Including the mobile phone, which is the big brother you use now, but it is smaller and more powerful. Later, mobile phones are another huge growth point after computers. If you want to break into the Japanese network and mobile communication terminal equipment market, it is natural to cooperate with SoftBank, Son Masayoshi is very honest, but he is also an authentic business wizard, and few people can match his investment mind. ”

In the 90s, SoftBank gradually became full-fledged and went public to obtain financing, and only then began a series of global investment layouts. And now SoftBank is still a very ambitious, but short of capital small and medium-sized enterprises.

"Less, bring the "Art of War" printed in the Chongzhen Year of the Ming Dynasty that I bought at the Hong Kong auction before, and let's go to visit this Sun Zhengyi. ”

It's a little weird, but it's still done.

Every successful businessman and investment master must have a set of philosophical concepts. Even if he is illiterate, there must be a set of truths, that is, his own philosophy, that drives his actions. Masayoshi Sun's philosophy of business warfare is China's Art of War.

Son Zhengyi loved "The Art of War", and insisted on reading it even in his sick bed, almost to the point of forgetting to sleep and eat, and his starting point was also very strange, others studied the 36 strategies, and he pondered why the first of the 13 articles of the Art of War was a plan, and later came to the conclusion that everything starts with a plan. Sun Tzu talked about pre-war preparations in the first six articles, and Sun Zhengyi believed that if the pre-war preparations were in place, the results of the war would be self-evident. He also put Sun Tzu's quotations at the gate as a factory motto: on one side is 'the victorious soldiers win first and then seek battle', and on the other side is 'the defeated soldiers fight first and then seek victory'. He applied the essence of his grandson to SoftBank's investment and mergers and acquisitions, and achieved a real "victory without a fight".

Unlike other scholars, he did not just study the Art of War, but put it into practice.

Son's innovative application of "The Art of War" was later manifested in the operation and management of enterprises, he created a set of "Sunsun Art of War", the origin of the name is that he is also surnamed Sun, multiplying the grandson of Sun Tzu by his grandson, and some people jokingly call it "The Art of War", one is a Japanese Internet giant, and the other is that he is a descendant of Sun Tzu. The core of its art of war is 25 words: "first-class offensive and defensive groups, the way of heaven and earth, wisdom, faith, benevolence, courage and strictness, seven fights of affection, wind forest and volcanic sea".

And these 25 words can be regarded as a portrayal of his life, and his personal personality is similar.

In his conversation with Alibaba Ma Yun, the two have never met and do not know each other, and they only talked for six minutes after meeting, which is to confirm the cooperative relationship, which shows Son's courage.

Therefore, Lin Qi is looking forward to it, now that he is going to meet this potential business giant before he succeeds, what kind of mentality does the other party have?

……

At the same time, Son is anxious that SoftBank's professional books are not selling well, and the past year can only be regarded as a slight profit. After all, although SoftBank has tried to make some well-founded industry analysis reports, it is too expensive to sell. In addition, many commercial companies in Japan have their own think tanks and are constantly researching the market. People who can afford such high-end reports often don't.

Therefore, software banks are still like ordinary retail stores, relying on those retail businesses that are not very profitable, barely making a living. As for the high-knowledge business, no one cares about it at all.

As if to sarcastically mock him - knowledge is worthless!

Judging from his appearance, Son Zhengyi is just a rather ordinary man, with a mediocre appearance, and he is very short, and the whole person is still slightly fat, and the hairstyle is not too casual.

But it is such a person who has won the reputation of many people, and Son is desperately financing for the future development direction. He has already seen many promising projects, but he is short of money. Once he can't take advantage of the good time to put the money in place, then, after this opportunity, I don't know how many years will be in the next time, he is not willing to develop so slowly!

For some time now, he has been running around trying to get more investment. Although tens of millions of dollars in investment commitments have been made recently, they still cannot satisfy SoftBank's appetite, because these funds are far from Son's goal.

"Lin Qi, the boss of the new business?"

Hearing the assistant say that Lin Qi was going to meet him, Son Masayoshi couldn't help but be a little surprised, the two had never had any dealing, he thought about it, and he didn't think that the new business could have anything to do with him.

If you want to say that the only thing that can be talked about, that is, publishing and distribution, SoftBank's chain stores also sell books and game software of the new entrepreneurship department. However, this is only a normal purchase according to the process of channel purchase, not to mention a particularly deep cooperative relationship.

As for the rest, he thinks to himself that he has not yet made the new entrepreneur see it.

Thinking about it, Son Masayoshi quickly suppressed the doubts in his heart and quickly finalized the place to meet.

"Mr. Sun, hello, it's a pleasure to meet you. ”

Lin Qi saw Sun Zhengyi, there was basically no difference from what he knew, the clothes were very old, and his appearance was mediocre, but there was shrewdness in his eyes, and he was looking at Lin Qi at the same time.

"It's a great honor to meet you, Mr. Lin, you are the pride of Chinese people all over the world, and as an overseas Chinese with a little Chinese blood, I am also proud of your success. Son said.

Masayoshi Son is a more cunning person, and the Japanese think he is Japanese. Koreans feel that he has Korean blood. Son also said that his ancestors were Chinese. A surname Sun, let him get a little bit of the benefits of each family.

Of course, only now, China is relatively poor, and foreigners claim to have a little Chinese blood, which will make Chinese people very excited. In a few decades, not to mention that your ancestors may be Chinese, that is, you yourself were born in China, and after immigrating overseas, you are also considered a foreigner, and few Chinese people are willing to recognize that kind of person as Chinese.

This is the same as the headquarters of some companies have been transferred to the United States, and to say that this company is a Chinese enterprise is probably self-deception. Only in the early years, the people's wisdom was not opened, and the Internet penetration was not high, so that these foreign enterprises called themselves Chinese enterprises at every turn to take advantage, a company was regarded by the United States as its own people, well, but it was the United States' own people, in addition, but the so-called Chinese, this kind of enterprise is more shameful than real foreign enterprises.

I knew this truth in my heart, but Lin Qi still did enough superficial work. The other party claims to have Chinese blood and likes "The Art of War", of course, he wants to show it and give respect.

Lin Qi gestured to Xiao Xiao, who immediately handed the carefully packaged "Sun Tzu's Art of War" to Sun Zhengyi.

"When I met for the first time, I heard that Mr. Sun liked "The Art of War", which was a little bit of my heart. ”
