Chapter 423: Acquisition of Sony
(3rd Update)
"Hah...... I'm finally back on land!" Iloti looked at the shoreline of Nemuro Fishing Port, and a smile was on her face. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Now I can eat fresh vegetables and no longer have to fall asleep in a rickety bed. ”
"Aren't you moved to cry~" Shuichi Minamino laughed.
"You're crying~"
When the four of them returned home, they happened to find Ami Inoue also at home, and the radio was playing at home at this time, while she was cooking in the kitchen.
She was still quite surprised when she saw Minamino Shuichi coming back: "You guys are back?"
"Yes, remember to cook our rice~"
"Don't worry, let's go take a bath first~"
Since Iloti is here, Ami Inoue can't show too much affection with Shuichi Minamino, which is not good.
"Hey, Ami, when did you buy a new radio, it looks good. Shuichi Minamino looked at the radio on the coffee table in the living room and was curious.
"It's called a TR-55 radio, and it's pretty good. Ami Inoue's voice came from the kitchen.
"TR-55?Nima, isn't this the radio that became famous in Sony's name?" said Shuichi Minamino with a slight surprise.
He remembers that Sony could not grow steadily in the early days of its establishment, and it was not until 10 years later, in 1956, that it developed transistor technology, which was not favored at that time, and developed the world's first transistor radio "TR-55", which succeeded in one fell swoop.
"It turned out to be it!"
Shuichi Minamino knew that Sony Corporation was a subsidiary of the Mitsui Foundation. In its former life, Sony Corporation was a world-renowned large-scale comprehensive multinational conglomerate. Sony is a pioneer in the fields of audio-visual, video games, communication products and information technology, the pioneer of the world's earliest portable digital products, one of the world's largest electronic product manufacturers, and one of the three giants of the world's video game industry. Sony is also one of the world's top 10 patent companies, with more than 3,000 patented technology inventions.
Of course, this is Sony at its peak. In fact, Sony's development at the beginning was not smooth, and it almost went bankrupt.
In October 1945, Daidai Ibuka established the Tokyo Telecommunications Research Institute in the Tokyo area, with an initial staff of 7 people
In May 1946, Akio Morita joined, and the company was reorganized into Tokyo Telecommunications Industry Co., Ltd. with a capital of 190,000 yen
In January 1958, in response to the pace of internationalization, the company name was changed to Sony.
In June 1961, the ADR was issued in the United States.
……
However, Sony's rise was due to the invention of the world's first transistor, the TR-55 radio, in 1955, and it was only when sales began in 1956 that it came out of the shadows.
It was at this time that Sony's potential was spotted by the Mitsui consortium and decided to acquire and invest in Sony. With the huge capital investment of the big tree of the Mitsui Foundation. So the speed of Sony's development is almost geometrically equational.
Of course, its success is also inseparable from Sony's initial entrepreneurial team. In fact, the addition of the Mitsui consortium is just an addition of funds. The rise of this company is still the original group of entrepreneurial teams.
"It's the middle of 1956, and I don't know if the Mitsui consortium bought Sony!" said Minamino Shuichi secretly in his heart. At this time, after he thought of Sony, he was already a little tempted to buy Sony. After all, Sony has spanned several major fields in later generations, such as video games, communication equipment, digital products, and so on. Such as mobile phones, computers, and so on.
In fact, the acquisition of Sony does not necessarily mean that Sony will be as powerful as later generations. But Shuichi Minamino felt that after the acquisition, he let go of the original team to run it by himself, and from time to time he put forward some strategic proposals that he had the vision of future generations, and I believe that Sony will definitely grow into a giant.
Without further ado, Shuichi Minamino immediately went to contact Nako Kino, who was far away in Tokyo. Ask her to help investigate and see if the Mitsui consortium has acquired Sony. Well, it seems that the current Sony is not called Sony, it is called Tokyo Telecommunications Industries.
Nako Kino, who was far away in Tokyo, was also a little surprised to receive the news, but she still went to investigate.
A day later, Nako Kino sent the news back to Hokkaido.
"Haha...... God really has an eye, the Mitsui consortium has not yet acquired Sony, and it seems that this Sony is going to fall into my pocket. Shuichi Minamino said with a hesitant smile. Now that he has hundreds of millions of liquidity, isn't it as simple as eating vegetables to acquire a Sony company?
The current Sony, no, it's not worth much to call Tokyo Telecommunications Industries, and it is estimated that it will not cost much money to acquire most of the company's shares!
"In a week, no, I'm going to Tokyo tomorrow and going straight to buy this company. Shuichi Minamino quickly made up his mind.
Although he knows that the Sony of the future generation was killed by Apple and almost went out of business, but with him, will he allow such a thing to happen?
At that time, the mobile phone overlord was a super and many strong, Nokia was the hegemon, and the many strong were Samsung and Sony. But with the advent of Apple, Nokia and Sony were killed.
Thinking of this, Shuichi Minamino thinks that after acquiring Sony, will he be able to make more digital products in advance? For example, let BB machines come out sooner, let Big Brother come out early, and let mobile phones come out sooner?
If he can do such a thing, it is estimated that he will be the boss in the communications industry! At the same time, he will earn him to laugh in the toilet. After all, the first people in any industry will always make the most money.
The next day, Shuichi Minamino took a plane to Tokyo, and after getting off the plane, he did not plan to stay at the hotel, and went directly to Tokyo Telecommunications Industry Co., Ltd. (Sony) under the pre-arrangement of Nako Kino.
In the car.
"Nako, have you arranged everything?" Nanno Shuichi looked at Nako Kino, who hadn't seen him for half a year, and found that this girl was still so beautiful.
"It's all arranged, I made an appointment with this company yesterday, and they are very happy to make an appointment with us when they see a big company like ours. Nako Kino said. In fact, she can't understand why Shuichi Minamino wants to buy this small company now. At the moment, this small company has launched a good radio. But it still can't stand the fact that it's a small company with average strength.
"I naturally have my considerations. Minamino Shuichi smiled faintly.
When Shuichi Minamino arrived at Tokyo Telecommunications Industries, he found that he was personally hosted by Akio Morita, one of the founders of Sony.
"Hello Mr. Minamino, and welcome to the company. "Akio Morita was very respectful when he saw Shuichi Minamino, maybe he knew that Shuichi Minamino was young and promising.
Yes, Minamino Motor Company and Minamino Real Estate are both big companies, and they are still very famous in Tokyo.
