Chapter 292: Tacit

On the way back, Li Dong was smiling. Zhou Liwen did not return to Shanghai directly after returning to China this time, but went to Huacheng, and after negotiating the order for the touch screen with Samsung, orz's next new smart phones, including Zhou Liwen's tablet computer project that has long been ready, will be launched soon, as the head of the company, Zhou Liwen must arrange things before returning to Shanghai, in addition, Samsung transferred displays, network equipment and other technologies to TcL, including the introduction of assembly lines and other matters, he also has to explain to Li Dong, even if Li Dong does not appear today, Zhou Liwen also planned to let Li Dong come as soon as he returned to Huacheng.

Who would have thought that after Li Dong learned the news of the negotiations in China, where would he be able to hold it in Goose City? Immediately without saying a word, he rushed to Huacheng without even saying hello, it was in this way that Zhou Liwen was a little surprised to meet him at the airport, since they met, let's go back and talk again.

The Guo's Enterprise Building project has officially ended, and Guo's office also moved in as soon as the building was used, and according to Zhou Liwen's explanation, Guo Tao specially prepared a floor for Zhou Liwen as his office here. Zhou Liwen came over this time, or the first time to come back to this office, compared with the office of the institute, this office seems larger and more spacious, the decoration is Guo Tao found a professional designer in Xiangjiang to do, very modern. On the entire floor, his office occupies half of it, a full 5oo square meters, and the other half is the office space used by Zhou Liwen's secretary and assistant here.

Walking into his own office, Zhou Liwen looked around and was very satisfied. It's just that this place is a little too big, even if it is divided into several areas, but staying in such a large environment in the office, Zhou Liwen still feels that it is a bit of a waste.

But thinking about it, Zhou Liwen smiled and shook his head again, Guo Tao had his own reasons for making his office like this. China's national conditions are different, and Chinese people do business based on faΓ§ade and pomp, and such a large and luxurious office space is also a display of strength. Since Guo Tao thinks it is necessary, then let him go, anyway, Zhou Liwen is not short of this money now, and the whole building is his own, and the meat is rotten in the pot, why not do it?

"Tsk...... Dong Chou, this place is really ....... Entering the office, even the well-informed Li Dong gasped, he didn't expect Zhou Liwen to be so extravagant, his office is on the top floor of the TcL headquarters, it is already big enough from the pomp and circumstance, but compared to here, it is simply a chicken nest. And whether it is the decoration layout, the materials used, and even some of the artworks placed in the office, he was very surprised.

"It's the first time I've come here, and Mr. Guo got it for me, but I didn't expect it to be almost made into a palace for him. This guy really has a few dollars to make a fuss, such a big place, it's a waste. Zhou Liwen explained with a smile and walked inside with Li Dong.

"Luxury can be counted, waste is not necessarily, and with Jay Chou's current price, it is worthy of having such an office. To tell you the truth, this place is itching to me, and maybe I'll get one for myself in the future. ”

"Hehe, this is easy, why don't I call Mr. Guo and ask if there is any space upstairs and downstairs, so you can move the office to me, and it will be convenient for us to be neighbors at that time?"

As soon as Zhou Liwen said this, Li Dong immediately laughed, shook his head and said: "That's not necessary, I moved here to work, what should I do with the group?" You can't let me drive hundreds of kilometers to and from work every day, can you? Forget it, forget it, if the design drawings here are still there, let Xiao Guo give me a copy, and I'll just get a small-scale one directly at the group when I find time. ”

Zhou Liwen also smiled when he heard it, and agreed to come down. The two sat and chatted for a few words, and when the secretary brought in the brewed tea, he closed the door and left, and then Zhou Liwen talked to Li Dong about some of the technologies and assembly line facilities transferred by Samsung Group to TcL.

Speaking of Samsung Group's investment in China, in fact, as early as 1995, Samsung Group registered Samsung sdI company in Xiangjiang and used it as a platform to penetrate the big 6 market. In 1996, in Southeast Province, Samsung established Samsung Pengcheng sdI branch, and in this year, another sdI branch was established in Xiangshi, Guancheng. It mainly produces ug and uk quality LCD and cdT electron guns, and subsequently, 6 continued to open sdI branches in Shanghai and Tianjin. In January this year, the factory in the southeast was relocated to a new factory area, covering an area of 130,000 square meters, and the original "raw material manufacturing" factory became an independent company with more than 4ooo employees.

TcL Group almost overlaps with Samsung's business in many business areas, and TcL's ace TV and picture tube manufacturing is second to none in China. If there is no previous mobile phone turmoil, or the influence of Zhou Liwen, according to history, this year TcL will acquire the color TV business of Schneider in Germany, and use this as a basis to further promote TcL's exhibition in this field.

But history has changed under the influence of Zhou Liwen,The acquisition of the German Schneider color TV business failed to come into being,Although the management of TcL has recently proposed the acquisition of Japan's Sanyo,To obtain the Japanese color TV technology,But this plan was vetoed by Zhou Liwen。

In this regard, Zhou Liwen once talked to Li Dongshen once. With the progress and development of science and technology, ordinary color TVs will soon be eliminated, and traditional picture tubes will also be replaced by new technologies, and the most promising is LCD or the same LCD technology but slightly differentLed display equipment. In layman's terms, it is an LCD TV or liquid crystal display.

Compared with LCD TVs, ordinary old TVs have many problems, such as bulkiness, low display frequency, X-ray damage to the human body caused by the use of high-voltage components, and so on. The LCD TV does not have these problems, and its resolution is even more unattainable by ordinary TVs.

What Zhou Liwen asked Samsung for was LCD technology. Although this technology has been formed as early as the 7o, and was mastered by Japan in the 8o, in the early 9o, Japan, including South Korea, began to develop a new type of LCD TV. Compared with it, old-fashioned CRT TVs and projection TVs are products that are about to be phased out. Either don't do it, do it and do the best, this is Zhou Liwen's choice. But there is a problem, although Samsung agreed to transfer this technology to TcL and provide equipment support, Zhou Liwen has been worried about whether TcL has the ability to digest it.

"It's a bit difficult." Although Li Dong is not from a professional background, TcL was built by him, and he is no stranger to this technology. After listening to Zhou Liwen's concerns, he thought about it carefully and replied.

"But isn't Samsung able to provide technical support? And give us a perfect assembly line, I think with these can always be mastered even if it takes a long time, right? ”

Zhou Liwen shook his head with a wry smile and said, "My brother Li, do you think the stick is so kind?" As far as I know, Samsung's speculation in China is more than 100 million, and the investment in sdI alone has four large factories with a total area of more than 50,000 square meters. If the LCD technology is mastered by us and officially put into production, do you think Samsung will give up these investments and let us occupy this market? ”

was reminded by Zhou Liwen like this, Li Dong immediately reacted, and said with some solemnity: "Brother means that Samsung is just a bait doing this?" They don't really intend to transfer the core technology to us? ”

"Yes and no." Zhou Liwen shook his head again and said: "This time in South Korea, I met with Li Kunxi, the head of Samsung, a few times, this is not a simple person, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is scheming, how can he be an ordinary person who can run the Samsung Group to the first in South Korea at present, and even the largest group in the world?" I can conclude that there will be no problems with his technology transfer, and there will not be too much trouble in terms of equipment, but it is also difficult to say whether we will be able to produce products that meet the requirements given our technology and production capacity. After all, he is a businessman, and businessmen are all chasing profits, so he will never set up strong obstacles for his products. ”

"Brother Zhou, according to what you said, it's useless for us to get the technology and equipment?"

Li Dong was suddenly a little anxious, and couldn't help but ask.

Zhou Liwen shook his head again: "It's hard to say, the key depends on the actual situation." In this way, I will first mention a small construction, if it is not possible to put into production LCD TVs, I will start with LCD monitors, after all, the current international and domestic computer IT industry is fast, and the use of LCD monitors is also very extensive, and compared with TVs, relatively speaking, the production difficulty is relatively small. In this way, Samsung can dispel his worries and fully cooperate with us. Second, we can also borrow the technology of manufacturing displays to gradually digest them, so as to lay a good foundation for the production of TV sets in the future. ”

"It's an idea, and it might work." Li Dong's eyes lit up and nodded, but he thought about it and felt strange again, and asked: "In this case, why is Samsung still so generous?" ”

"They're not generous, and they ask for something too." Zhou Liwen smiled and stretched out his finger to point at himself, Li Dong was stunned for a moment, then laughed, nodded again and again: "I understand, you and Li Jianxi, the old guy, are actually playing together in front of everyone." ”

Zhou Liwen suddenly laughed and nodded, it seems that Li Dong has understood the situation, it is indeed as he said, everyone is performing, but there is also paying, who benefits more, it depends on whose means and ability are more clever.

"There is another thing I almost forgot to tell you, Cai Mingjie, this old boy has made another bad move, this time the movement is not small!"

"How?" Zhou Liwen looked at Li Dong gritting his teeth and asked in surprise.
