Lin Zheng nodded and motioned for Wu Yuying to continue. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Konica Minolta rejected our proposal."
Wu Yuying's answer was not unexpected by Lin Zheng, whether it is Konica or Minolta, the two companies are world-class enterprises in the field of traditional optical film cameras, and the previous cooperation has provided a typical basis of mutual trust for their joint in the photography business, and this year's merger in the photography business is because both parties are ambitiously ready to show their strength in the digital photographic equipment market, and compete with Nikon and Canon, not to mention that Konica Minolta and Lisheng themselves have a competitive relationship. If they could agree to cooperate with Lisheng immediately, Lin Zheng would feel strange.
But Wu Yuying obviously still had unspoken information, and Lin Zheng smiled: "What else hasn't you said?" Don't sell it, let's talk about it together. ”
"Sure enough, I can't hide anything from you," her own little baggage didn't work, Wu Yuying shrugged: "Interesting is interesting here, Konica Minolta rejected our cooperation proposal, but the service Minolta side contacted us privately, and they hoped to cooperate with us." ”
Konica Minolta refused to cooperate with Lianchuang Technology, but Minolta executives want to cooperate with Lianchuang Technology?
"It's kind of interesting." Lin Zheng said with a smile.
What does this mean? This shows that there is a V-,.. within Konica Minolta's top management There is no worse news for a company than a serious split.
"Yes," Wu Yuying nodded, she could understand her boss's feelings. Explained: "When I heard the news, I wondered if it was a trap for Konica Minolta. However, I inquired through some special channels, and there are indeed some differences among Konica Minolta's top management about the photography business. The main reason is that after Konica and Minolta joined forces in the photography business, instead of 1+1>2, there was 1+1<2, which made Minolta's senior management quite annoyed. ”
"There's nothing strange about it," Lin Zheng said with deep emotion: "The purpose of the merger of the two companies is to make money, since they haven't made money, it's normal for you to blame me and I blame you, but I really didn't expect that their internal differences have reached this level, and this is simply irreconcilable." ”
"Who's to say it isn't." Wu Yuying was also very emotional. At the same time, he was also waiting for Lin Zheng's next instructions.
After thinking about it, Lin Zheng asked, "What is Minolta's attitude?" Also, if they were to work with Minolta in the future, what would they hope to achieve? ”
This is the premise of cooperation, and there is no way to continue to talk about these issues without understanding these issues, or if Minolta's requirements are too high, there is no way to continue to talk, if the talks cannot be reached. Naturally, there is no need to talk about it.
However, Wu Yuying really put in the effort to do this, and immediately said: "Minolta means to package and sell the photography business directly, I don't know what they based on this judgment, but as far as I can see." Minolta's willingness to sell its photography business doesn't seem to be strong, the only problem is the price, and their offer is a bit high. ”
"Oh? Are you sure? ”
Wu Yuying's answer was really a bit unexpected for Lin Zheng. He originally thought that Minolta might want to cooperate with Lianchuang Technology, but they were willing to sell the entire photography? What happened between Konica and Minolta? So Minolta is willing to make such a big determination to cut the meat?
Compared to this, Minolta's slightly higher offer is not even a problem.
Wu Yuying nodded solemnly: "Yes." I'm pretty sure. ”
Lin Zheng groaned, frowning and thinking.
After waiting for a while, Lin Zheng finally said: "In this way, you first contact Minolta, and I will let people see if there will be any problems here, and then make further decisions after the results come out." ”
Wu Yuying suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly responded: "Okay." ”
To be honest, the contact with Minolta went smoothly, and Wu Yuying herself was worried about whether this would be a pit dug by Konica and Minolta together, although there was no sign of digging a pit, but who dared to guarantee that it was not their cover-up work that was done well? Now that the boss has taken this matter over, Wu Yuying is relieved.
After talking about Konica Minolta, Wu Yuying talked about another company that Lin Zheng cares about: Pentax.
"And Pentax, which has a very tough attitude compared to Konica Minolta, and they refuse to cooperate with us in any way." When talking about Pentax, Wu Yuying looked at Lin Zheng's gaze and couldn't help but feel a little admiration: when Lin Zheng instructed Wu Yuying to contact Pentax, he clearly told her that Pentax is a group of stubborn guys who are no different from stones, don't have too much hope for contact with them, it is a good thing to be able to reach cooperation, but if Pentax refuses, don't have any psychological burden. The boss is really as smart as a torch.
"Sure enough, ......" Hearing this result, Lin Zheng not only got angry, but laughed.
A few years later, Hoya, a Japanese optical company with the same name as Kengao, tried to cooperate with Pentax, but Pentax, which had a very dismal market share at that time, did not hesitate to reject Pentax, and finally Baogu had to adopt the acquisition of Pentax shares from the market to achieve the merger of Pentax.
But you think that's the end of it? Of course not, after Pentax was acquired by Baogu, Ricoh, a well-known Japanese manufacturer of office equipment and optical enterprises, acquired Baogu, and in the end, Pentax's technology became all Ricoh's.
But now, Lin Zheng is unwilling to cheapen Baogu and Ricoh, he said to Sun Yafang without hesitation: "Manager Yafang, start buying Pentax's shares today." ”
"Okay," Sun Yafang agreed immediately without saying a word, she didn't have the slightest doubt about her boss's decision, but she just needed to be sure: "How much?" ”
Lin Zheng's attitude is very clear: "Buy as much as you can." ”
Is that the upper limit uncapped? The boss used this way to hostilely acquire a world-famous optical company, and Sun Yafang became excited: if it can successfully acquire Pentax, Lianchuang Technology will become a world-class camera company.
After the conference, some situations that are not suitable for reporting to Lin Zheng at the conference, and they have to wait until the meeting is over to report to Lin Zheng alone, such as Sun Yafang, who stayed after the conference and reported to Lin Zheng some of the situation in the company during this time: "Boss, the company is now a little unstable. ”
"Because of some adjustments and rectifications to the company's top management?" Lin Zheng asked, this situation did not surprise Lin Zheng, although the company's adjustment this time is for the long-term development of the future, but after all, it is to damage the interests of some people, in order to protect their own interests, there is nothing strange about the occurrence of rumors and slander.
"Yes," Sun Yafang nodded, half helpless and half explained to Lin Zheng: "Now there are some words that are very powerful within the company......
"Why don't you take advantage of my absence, hide me and Mr. Tan, and crack down on dissidents and support your own people in the name of rectification?" Without waiting for Sun Yafang to finish speaking, Lin Zheng smiled and said: "If that's the case, you don't have to tell me, whoever likes to talk about it, the company is not for some people, and there is no need to take care of the emotions of these guys who can't keep up with the company's development." ”
Sun Yafang was excited and grateful in her heart, the boss's trust in herself was beyond Sun Yafang's imagination, but it was precisely because of this that she sincerely put forward her own opinions: "That being said, I think this round of adjustment can come to an end?" ”
"No," Lin Zheng shook his head and said categorically: "I understand what you mean, but the more you can't stop at this time." ”
Even if Lin Zheng doesn't do anything, it will also be a huge blow to Sun Yafang's prestige within the company: why do you Sun Yafang toss when the boss is not there, and as soon as the boss comes back, you Sun Yafang will be instigated?
If Lin Zheng didn't plan to train Sun Yafang to be the head of Lianchuang Technology, or to further consolidate his authority within the company, Lin Zheng could certainly do this, which would be of great benefit to himself, but since he had decided to train Sun Yaguang as his successor, this kind of thing could not be a successor with no or insufficient prestige, and it was obviously not enough to convince the public.
Although Lin Zheng didn't explain a word, Sun Yafang was not stupid, how could she not understand the meaning of Lin Zheng's decision? I was excited and grateful, and I wanted to say something, but I felt that it was not appropriate to say anything at this time, so I finally nodded heavily: "Boss, don't worry, I won't let you down." ”
………………………………
As Lin Zheng thought, after Lin Zheng came back from the United States, many people waited for the boss to clean up Sun Yafang with a gloating attitude: What if you Sun Yafang had the support of the boss to rectify the company? It's an indisputable fact that you're putting yourself in key positions, right? After all, Lianchuang Technology is still surnamed Lin, not Sun, you Sun Yafang is so "perverse", is it really easy to bully as a boss?
But what everyone didn't expect was that Lin Zheng came back for a week, without saying anything about Sun Yafang's previous practices, and without making any adjustments, at this time, those who were waiting to see Sun Yafang's jokes were still secretly comforting themselves in their hearts, thinking that this was the boss "collecting evidence";
In the second week, Lin Zheng still didn't make any moves, and those people comforted themselves in their hearts, this was the boss looking for a suitable opportunity to give Sun Yafang a fatal blow;
When the third and fourth weeks passed, and Lin Zheng still didn't react at all, they finally recognized the facts...... (To be continued.) )
