Chapter 791: Samsung Group is a Fat Pig (End)
Park Han has always adhered to the habit of working at the American Light and Shadow Company, and when Lee Jae-yong rushed home to report to his father, he had already gone to Boss Sun Zi Ming's to discuss.
Li Yingai, who had a hint of spring on her face, helped the two make two cups of tea and exited the study. When he heard the sound of the door, Park Han squatted under the desk with difficulty, turned on the eavesdropping jammer, and then reported what he talked to Lee Jae-yong today, and said in a low voice: "Boss, Samsung's influence in South Korea is too great, we want to develop in South Korea for a long time, and they can't get around it." ”
Sun Ziming opened the drawer, threw a new mobile phone to Park Hanze, and wondered: "You don't know, we can only produce this kind of small screen?" ”
"Boss, you're not kidding me, are you?"
Park Han, who quickly installed the mobile phone card, was a little stunned, and the boss didn't care too much about anything other than movies, how big a panel can the mobile phone use? Besides, C-CUBE has completed the acquisition of Sceptre (Saiput) company, don't look at Sceptre is on the verge of bankruptcy, but they have complete LCD panel patent technology, and they are afraid that they will not be able to produce larger LCD panels in the future?
Sun Ziming would deliberately pay attention to the acquisition of a small company, as long as Hu Weiguo and Zeng Qiang feel the need, arrange Claudia to bring people to negotiate. If he had to make a decision about everything, why would he need a group of buddies to do?
Park Han is really speechless, the acquisition of hundreds of millions of dollars, Boss is so relieved?
After Sun Ziming listened to Zhile, this kid has become the president of a group, and he doesn't know these things?
"What's wrong with that? Han Ze, leave professional things to professionals. As a leader, you just need to grasp the general direction and don't interfere too much in the work of your subordinates. Do you know how Zhuge Liang died? ”
There are many twists and turns in the hearts of East Asian nations, and although Park Han thinks he is an American, the things in his bones are still similar, and he thought that his boss was hinting, so he hesitated and asked in a low voice: "You mean, I am solely responsible for the negotiation with the Samsung Group?" If they show me goodwill, I'll follow?"
Sun Ziming, who knew that 'when the water is clear, there are no fish', glared at Park Hanze, and scolded with a smile: "The premise is not to damage the interests of the company, and escape the review of George and Claudia, I don't ask about the rest." ”
How shrewd are George and Claudia, can they play tricks in front of them? Park Han immediately resolutely said: "Boss, you also underestimate me, professional ethics is the foundation of our professional managers!" ”
Sun Ziming scolded angrily: "Don't pretend to me, I don't know you yet?" If you want to make a lot of money, don't keep staring at small profits. In the future, when the Hanjiang River is listed, can you still lose as the president? ”
"Yes/sir", Park Han was happy again, and secretly comforted himself: Fortunately, I didn't agree to the temptation of Lee Jae-yong's king/bastard, otherwise if the boss or George found out, his seat would be unstable.
……
At about the same time, Li Zairong and his son also rushed to the Samsung Electronics Research Institute, and the technicians who received the call and rushed over took Hanhua's mobile phone for testing, and said dejectedly: "President, we may be able to bypass the rest, but we can't produce this panel yet." At present, only Sharp in Japan and Sceptre in the United States can produce LCD panels commercially. ”
Li Jianxi's face was heavy, if only Sharp and Sceptre can be commercially produced, it means that Hanhua Electronics has made a major breakthrough in the field of LCD panels, and has also formed a production capacity. If this is the case, the world mobile phone market will face a reshuffle. It is impossible for Sharp to supply panels to Samsung, and their production capacity is not yet enough to meet their own needs.
Li Jianxi suddenly regretted a little, the third-generation line of the LCD panel was slow, if he gritted his teeth last year, he would have already made the color screen machine out. Now that the feasibility study report of the third-generation line has just been passed on to the board of directors, even if the equipment and assembly line are ordered immediately, it will have to wait for a while. In other words, if Samsung Electronics wants to drink the first soup in the market of color screen mobile phones, it will have to face the blackmail of the Hanjiang Group.
After being silent for a long time, Li Jianxi asked, "Lao Jin, according to your experience, how long will it take us to take at the earliest?" ”
Dean Jin of the research institute discussed a few words with the assistants, and said stubbornly: "President, our third-generation LCD line is ordering equipment, and if the speed is accelerated, it will take at least a year to form a production capacity." ”
Yes, that's the crux of the matter, what will C-CUBE be developed in a year's time? They can independently develop mobile phone panels, and they will be able to develop TV panels in the future, and their research and development speed is too scary! Lee Kun-hee suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness, and if he had known this, he should have learned from those Chinese and directly established a real room in the United States, instead of thinking that everything would rely on the technological strength of the Republic of Korea itself. In Banyan is right, now it is an open world, big fish can eat small fish, fast fish can eat slow fish!
Li Zairong, who was next to him, saw that his father's face was not quite right, and immediately reacted to what he was thinking, and hurriedly asked: "Hey, Dean Jin, didn't you just say that the Sceptre company in the United States has also formed commercial production?" Is it possible for us to go to the United States and buy Sceptre? ”
"It's useless," Dean Jin said dejectedly: "It was acquired by a foundation last year, and I suspect that the panel of this Hanhua mobile phone is produced by Sceptre." Although Hanhua Electronics is developing rapidly, its scientific research strength is still weak. ”
Lee Kun-hee's father and son both understood that Hanhua Electronics' sudden launch of this color screen mobile phone must be the acquirer of Sceptre. In the color screen machine market, they have been ahead of everyone, and Samsung Electronics' desire to exchange technology for technology has also been completely disappointed.
Now there are two choices, or continue to wait, wait for Samsung's own panel to come out, and then launch a color screen mobile phone; If you don't accept the blackmail of Hanjiang, launch Samsung's color screen mobile phone a year in advance, and start the mobile phone brand first.
But what will be the conditions of the Han River?
The next day, Park Han put forward a condition that surprised Lee Jae-yong, who actually demanded to buy 274 commercial properties owned by Samsung at market prices in US dollars.
"Senior Park, this can't be! Now that the won has depreciated by 107% and the house price has fallen by half, we would have lost too much if we had sold at the market price! ”
Park Hanze, who is already fully sure of letting Samsung Electronics cut meat, has already regarded the other party as a big fat pig for the New Year, how can he give in now?
"In Banyan, you can't say that. We estimate that it will take you a year to form an LCD panel production capacity, and two years later to reach the maximum output. If you produce a year in advance, you can occupy a considerable part of the market and win the opportunity in the future mobile phone market. ”
After Pu Han finished speaking, he drank tea leisurely, and the boss could dig more than a billion dollars of meat from Panasonic. I have seized such a good opportunity, if I can't dig another billion, then I'm too sorry that I have been studying at Harvard for four years.
With more than a billion dollars as a ticket to enter a product field, Lee Jae-yong felt that Park Han was crazy, but he didn't expect his father to admit it.
"Promise them! As long as they promise to supply us with panels at the price they supply to Hanhua Electronics! Also, the panels that must be supplied to us must be opened. ”
The members of the board of directors of Samsung Electronics next to him were relieved, more than a billion dollars seemed like a lot, but it actually depended on how they thought. Samsung Real Estate is controlled by the Samsung Group, but it only owns 28% of the shares, which means that the billions of dollars are only worth a few hundred million dollars compared to those here. It is very cost-effective to use a few hundred million dollars in exchange for entering a profiteering industry a year early.
Pu Han still refused: "No, we can only provide 1/6 of Sceptre's production capacity!" If you insist on open supply, we will have to buy from other real estate companies. In Rong, it is a profiteering industry, and we can only meet the production capacity of Hanhua Electronics first. ”
Lee Jae-yong almost went crazy, the price of 1.2 billion US dollars, but he couldn't exchange it for an open supply panel?
But his father still recognized it, and said fiercely: "Promise them!" ”
Li Zairong, who was still a little inexperienced, was so anxious that he even changed his title and admonished: "President, that's the price of at least 1.2 billion US dollars!" If we speed up, we can produce our own panels within a year, and we may not be able to earn that $1.2 billion within a year! ”
A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Li Jianxi's eyes, if he can take the lead in the field of mobile phones, the price of $1.2 billion is not high! What's more, new products mean high returns, maybe the 1.2 billion can be earned back within two years, just two years for nothing for a future market share. What's more, the $1.2 billion, in fact, Samsung Electronics only paid less than 300 million, and the rest was paid by Samsung Real Estate. Samsung Real Estate has only 16% of the shares in its own name, while Samsung Electronics has 38% of the shares!
Li Zairong still wanted to persuade, but the assistant next to him hurriedly whispered an explanation in his ear, and he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, and his father taught him another lesson.
……
Park Han-jae, who had obtained enough space for the Samsung Group, immediately arranged for people to start the construction of the theater when the financial crisis, a large number of enterprises in South Korea went bankrupt, and the wages of workers were cheap. In early April '99, a cinema chain with 1,560 big screens in various cities in South Korea surfaced, and the Star Convergence Cinema Line became the largest cinema chain in South Korea, with the number of screens equivalent to the sum of the second to sixth places, controlling 1/2 of the big screen of the Korean cinema chain.
In addition, Sun Ziming attracted a large number of young Korean directors, and later, although Korean films developed rapidly, and although Samsung Group also opened overseas distribution channels, the best Korean films were produced by Hanjiang Group or its subsidiaries. It can be said that most of the profits of Korean films, through Guò cinema chain and personal film studio shares, continue to flow into the Hanjiang Group and overseas cliff companies, which is equivalent to Korean filmmakers working for Sun Ziming and the Hanjiang Group.
These are all later words, as the 'bloody May' in memory approaches, Sun Tzu will return to Hong Kong tomorrow morning.
