Chapter 584: Hollywood's Jianghu Status (8)

Sun Ziming really doesn't understand the electronics industry, VCD itself is not a big deal, but the MPEG decompression technology it represents, and a series of technologies developed by Zeng Qiang, are ahead of several Japanese electronics giants. And that's not a big deal, the Japanese can rely on their strong R&D capabilities to start from scratch and launch new industry standards.

As soon as these technologies appeared, the American electronics companies, who were overwhelmed by the Japanese, were ecstatic, and they immediately applied this technology to audio-visual products, computers, and cameras in secret series...... A qiē may be utilized on the product. After waiting for a qiē to be ready, it became a new technical standard in North America with the help of Shantino and them, so that the Japanese could only import American chips at a high price, which greatly raised their costs.

"To put it simply, if a computer uses MPEG decompression technology, it can play VCD discs on the market and use the computer as a VCD machine; Listen to the sound, and also replace the cassette tape with a CD, which greatly improves the quality of the music, and there is no need to clean the magnetic head frequently; There is also a camera, if MPEG technology is used, the image can be directly stored in the zài memory card, and then edited by guò computer software, instead of the original manual editing; You don't know, our TV cameras use this technology, which saves a lot of trouble than before......"

Chen Huimin finally finished explaining, and Sun Ziming realized that Claudia had found him a mountain of gold, sighed a few words of his good luck, and then said: "Amin, according to what you say, aren't the Japanese becoming meat on the chopping block?" ”

took the small teacup handed by Sun Zi Ming, moistened his throat and said: "Brother Ming, otherwise how could the newspaper say that Japan's electronics industry will decline?" In addition to being more technologically advanced, the key to Japanese electronics is that they are also very inexpensive. And the Americans, using our patents and domestic production, have turned the situation completely upside down, with more advanced technology and lower prices than theirs. ”

Sun Ziming is still a little worried, this is related to his plans in Asia, "Huh? You mean, the Japanese will pinch their noses and admit it? ”

Hearing this, Chen Huimin realized that his boss only had a business vision, but no business skills. With such a magic weapon in hand, I don't know how to maximize the benefits. What is the billion-dollar expenditure compared to the cost of production that they are controlled?

"Not necessarily, we only have digital technology in our hands, and many patents are in the hands of the Japanese. Now the Japanese rely on their patents and charge us a large amount of royalties to subsidize their products. Forced by antitrust laws, we had to provide them with chips, but the patents were never transferred. In general, we are a little cheaper, because with the help of the Americans, it is impossible for their previous patents to raise the price, and the price of our chips is already so high that it is a headache for the Japanese. ”

Let Chen Huimin explain this, Sun Ziming suddenly realized, no wonder Hu Weiguo has been promoting patent swaps, and if this stalemate continues, the biggest beneficiary is the Americans.

"Yes, that's it! Chip producers are American, and because they are the ones who have contributed to the adoption of new technology standards in the United States. So, even though they pay us dividends and royalties, they are the ones who benefit the most. ”

Chen Huimin explained to Sun Ziming, and Shinyuki also explained to the board of directors of Panasonic Corporation in Tokyo, but his focus was different. After explaining the benefits of transferring shares to Sun Ziming, Nobuyuki began to report on the relationship between Sun Ziming and C-CUBE as the main content.

"There is no sound legal system in the mainland, and in order to avoid political risks, Sun Ziming disguised C-CUBE as a holding company in the United States, leaving the large profits generated by the Hanhua Group in the United States, which has a sound legal system. In the entire industrial chain, in addition to the Sun Group, there are also Americans. The Americans use their chip producers to cut the biggest piece of the pie from the entire chain of interests. What we have to do is to snatch the piece in the hands of the Americans, because in the eyes of the Sun Group, new technical standards have been formed, and the Americans have lost their role. ”

As soon as Nobuyuki's words fell, the conference room immediately seemed to be boiling, and in order to inquire about the specific situation of C-CUBE, the Japanese spent a lot of energy, but unfortunately they were all on the periphery and let the Americans stop them. I really didn't expect that the new deputy director of the president's office, just a few days after arriving in the United States, asked everyone about all the headaches.

"Shinnokun, are you sure that's the truth?"

Shinyuki immediately bowed slightly and replied, "Vice President, I'm eighty percent sure." I have already sent someone to keep an eye on the airport, and as long as Masao Uii of Toho Co., Ltd. goes to the United States, it can be determined that the C-CUBE is in the hands of the Sun Group, because he is the spokesperson of Sun Tzu's interests in Japan. Ladies and gentlemen, Sun Ziming only owns a very small stake in Hanhua Electronics, but the two light and shadow groups are equivalent to his private property. In the face of such big interests, he will only stand in the position of the Light and Shadow Group. ”

The cooperation between Toho and Hong Kong Light and Shadow Company, everyone knows that almost all of the best movies in Japan in recent years have been co-produced by Toho and Hong Kong. Hong Kong Light and Shadow Group - Toho - Sony - Columbia Pictures - American Light and Shadow Group, a chain of interests immediately popped up in everyone's minds, no wonder Nobuyuki wanted to sell Universal shares at a low price, and also handed over the production rights to that branch/that person.

Now it's not the deputy head of Nobuyuki who asks to sell the shares of Universal to that branch/person, but whether people will accept it! Panasonic Corporation has its own chip factory, and all that is missing is the transfer of patents, and if you can get patents, it is worth transferring those shares.

The people who could sit in the conference room were all old foxes who fought in the mall, and someone immediately asked: "Shinzhijun, will Sun Ziming accept it?" ”

Shinyuki, who was drinking tea to moisten his throat, still didn't say anything, and said with a little heavy face: "I've known him for five years, and in my judgment, I should agree." C-CUBE is already the birthplace of new technologies, and we don't know how many more will emerge in the future. If he cooperates with Colombia, it will inevitably make Sony tighten his control of Zhanì Dongbao and form a containment against him. For someone as smart as him, the best thing is that Japan has Toho as an ally, and Hollywood has Universal, so he can be left and right. ”

This is the truth, everyone nodded one after another, that branch/that person can create such a big cause, he should see these problems clearly. Now wait and see if that Toho's Masao Uii will go to the United States, as long as he goes, then immediately agree to Shinyuki's request. However, it doesn't matter if he doesn't go, you can also let Shinyuki take the initiative and find Sun Ziming to pick it out, as long as the patent transfer agreement is reached, the shares of Universal will be transferred to him immediately.

It's a pity that things didn't go as expected, and before the meeting was over, the assistant outside came in and reported: "Deputy Director Nobuyuki, the people at the airport called back, and Masao Uii from Toho has already taken the plane to Beiping." ”

Yes? Everyone in the conference room was staring at Nobuyuki, which was different from what he said.

Nobuyuki was annoyed for a while, this must be Sun Ziming's trick, he also wants to form a competition between Sony and Panasonic and get the biggest benefits! Perhaps, he has already sent someone to talk to the Columbia company, that guy has always been good if he doesn't make up his mind, and if he makes up his mind, he is steady, accurate, and ruthless!

The patent matter has been delayed for too long, and the president is also annoyed, so he immediately discussed a few words with a few deputies, instructed his subordinates to bring a phone number, and signaled: "Shinnokun, contact that Sun Ziming immediately, as long as he agrees to transfer the patent, the shares will be transferred to him as you say." ”

If that kid says something wrong, he will lose all his efforts!
