Chapter 319: Lee Kun-hee's Phone Call
"Oh?"
Hearing what the other party said, Jester also became interested in what he said about second place, he just went to the scene on the first day of the qualifiers to take a look, at that time Umehara Daigo was killing all sides in the qualifiers, almost unbeatable, I didn't expect that there was someone who could fight him evenly. ,X.
While thinking, Jester was about to pass the results of the qualifiers.
Then I saw the second place directly above.
"Richard. Bruce. Jester pronounced the name above, and then looked at the nationality, British, the above shows that his score in the qualifiers was second, only lost to Umehara Daigo, and even if it was the one that lost, the two of them were quite anxious, five rounds of three games, and finally Umehara Daigo won 3-2, and finally even won quite thrillingly, using a combo after the success of brog skills, before Richard. Bruce beats.
This time, there is basically no suspense in the game between Umehara Daigo and Park Zhiheng, although it is a tie-break game, but Umehara Daigo still plays quite easily, at the beginning they gave each other a forbidden role, and Umehara Daigo has also leaked a role he is good at in the previous qualifiers, that is, Ken, he took the initiative to choose the role of Ken twice in the game with Richard.
And Park Zhiheng has obviously done intelligence gathering in this area before, so at the beginning, he banned Ken.
Umehara Daigo faced the other party and banned a role he was good at, but his face didn't show any expression, as a master of "Street Fighter", it is naturally impossible to be good at only one character, from the random point of view that Umehara Daigo has been using for a long time before, he should be good at a lot of characters, first Park Zhiheng first banned the character, and then it was Umehara Daigo who was banning, and then Umehara Daigo chose first.
As for what Park Zhiheng is good at using, Daigo Umehara is obviously not ignorant. He must have seen the other party's information before, this is the final, Umehara Daigo does not entrust a random ban one, the slightest mistake here may cause irreparable losses, after all, it is a knockout match, in the previous game, Park Zhiheng used the most role is Gu Lie, and Umehara Daigo chose to ban it is also this character.
After forbidding the good character selection, Daigo Umehara also chose what he was going to use. Sangilf.
This character has not appeared many times in previous games, and more than eighty percent of the appearance rate is in the hands of Umehara Daigo, as if this character can burst out in the hands of Umehara Daigo with a power completely different from other players.
Seeing that Umehara Daigo chose the Soviet wrestler Sangirf, who rarely appeared, Park Zhiheng's brows furrowed, he had heard that Umehara Daigo was very good at using this unpopular role, but in this era, it is impossible to have so many videos to replay the opponent's game process to find flaws, and he has not seen the process of Umehara Daigo using Sangilf with his own eyes, so. Seeing that the other party chose this role, and the strength of the other party was personally understood by him during the qualifiers, so his heart couldn't help but be clouded with a layer of black gas.
After thinking for nearly a minute. Until the time of selection was approaching, for the sake of insurance, he chose his best Chun-Li, which was very useful. Also very powerful characters.
Then, the game begins.
Twelve minutes later, Jester watched as the big screen was piled up by a whirlwind of Sangilf's arcane technique, which cleared Chun-Li's health as she spun from the sky and crashed to the ground. A bright red KO word appeared on the big screen at the scene, and he also applauded heartily, the fighting games of this era naturally cannot be as exciting as the future generations, but in his opinion, this game is simply an exhibition match of Daigo Umehara.
Although Umehara Daigo won seven games in a row, there was not a perfect kill, but Umehara Daigo went through these seven games, and staged a near-perfect teaching exercise for the players and players present, in the hands of Umehara Daigo, this is not easy to use, and even many people feel that this role is very difficult to use well, even if it is used well, the energy spent for this role is enough to practice other better roles.
But Umehara Daigo guò sues those who are biased against the character of Sangilf in these five games, and you are wrong.
After the end of this game, the audience also stood up and gave a very warm applause to Umehara Daigo, Jester also applauded, he looked at the schedule in his hand, this morning's game is over, the four-in-two race will start at three o'clock in the afternoon, and it is also a live draw, in the hall on the other side, it is the "National Rally" competition, but the explanation forehead estimates the time, the game over there should be close to the end, their final is tomorrow afternoon, Before the closing party of the carnival, Jester didn't bother to go over to watch, he happened to have no food in the morning, and Jester also felt a little hungry at this time.
I was about to go out to a fast-food restaurant not far from the Anaheim Convention Center to solve my stomach problems, but from a long distance, Jester saw one of his assistants, who hurriedly ran towards him.
Before Jester could figure out what else was going on, the assistant had already arrived in front of Jester, and then, the news brought by the assistant really surprised Jester.
I just called my office.
Jester, the person who called, was no stranger, it was Lee Kun-hee, who was far away in South Korea.
After getting his assistant's report, Jester also nodded, and then drove directly to the company's headquarters, while catching him up, he was still thinking about what would happen to Li Kunxi who suddenly called him.
He is a strategic partner of Samsung, in the Samsung trading company, he is the second largest shareholder after the Li family, and a year ago, after the death of the founder of Samsung Trading Company Lee Byung-cheol, with the will of Lee Byung-cheol, he began to make a huge noise, and it can even be called a merciless purge, and the target of the purge is naturally his brother Li Mengxi and the veterans of those companies who support his brother.
In the past year, Samsung has also slowly recovered from this painful purge, just recently, judging from the board meeting document transferred by Samsung, Li Kunxi has indeed made a series of changes to many internal rules of Samsung, and these changes have obviously been carefully considered, and the Samsung reform after Li Kunxi just came to power is not much different from Jester's memory.
The Anaheim Center is not far from the Costa Mesa, and after more than half an hour's drive, Jester immediately called Lee Kun-hee back after rushing back to the company.
At this time, South Korea should still be late at night, which is also the reason for Jester's doubts, he can't understand what is the other party's matter, he would call him so late, but as soon as he picked up the phone, Jester knew that he was wrong.
"I'm in New York."
Lee Kun-hee's voice on the phone was a little unpleasant, but Jester could also hear that the unpleasantness was not directed at him.
Before Jester could speak, he heard Lee Kun-hee continue.
"I came to the United States this time mainly to examine the market prospects of our Samsung American branch in the United States, some time ago our company's financial report I also sent to you, I don't know if you have read it, our products in the North American market, there is almost no sales, always listen to the report of some people below, I think I can't hear anything, so I decided to come by myself, and did not inform anyone."
"I have visited more than a dozen large shopping malls in New York in the past two days, and I have to say that here, Japanese products, especially the consumer electronics of giants such as Sony and Panasonic occupy the most important position, and then there are American and European products, which can be seen only from the position and size of their counters in the mall...... And our Samsung products, I have only seen them in two shopping malls that are not very high-grade, and even in these two shopping malls that are not very high-grade, our Samsung products do not occupy a very important position. ”
"Moreover, I found that our products are crudely made and ugly in appearance, not to mention these Americans, who don't know anything about our products, even if it is me, in the case of Sony, Sharp, Panasonic and other similar goods next to me to compare, even if their prices are much more expensive than ours, I will not buy them."
"I feel very disappointed, you told me before that the future of our Samsung is in consumer electronics, I also think so, but from the current point of view, the gap between us and these Japanese manufacturers is too big, so big that it is difficult for us to ......compete at present."
Hearing this large series of similar complaints, Jester could hear Lee Kun-hee's disappointment from it, in his mind, Lee Kun-hee came to the United States to check on the spot, why Samsung's products could not be sold in the American market, but when he personally went to the scene to see it, and understood the gap between himself and the world's top companies, he felt a deep disappointment.
After all, he is also the second shareholder of Samsung, so of course he needs to take a little responsibility for Samsung.
After thinking about it for a while, Jester organized his words, he was thinking about what kind of proposal he proposed to Lee Kun-hee, but after thinking about it for a while, Jester felt that he didn't understand these things on the phone, and he had to meet and talk about it.
So, Jester could only say to Lee Kun-hee.
"Well, I'll go to New York the day after tomorrow and tell you in person." (To be continued......) R640
