Chapter 612: Returning to China
"These Americans are so shameless!"
Liu Gang's Fanhan Electronics Factory is the main production plant of Panhan Group's network equipment, and he will naturally not be absent from this visit to the United States.
However, after the entire hearing process, he was already furious.
"During the whole hearing, I knew that there was a party organization in our company to talk about things, and a party organization was a spy agency? Which textile factory in China does not have a party committee, do you have to suspect that the shirt may be poisoned! Do you doubt that we Chinese will install bugging devices in toys? ”
"Okay, Lao Liu, what's the trouble with this unclear desire? People and Americans are cheating you, what can you do? ”
"What about their democracy? What about freedom? Because of suspicion, there is no evidence that can be taken out, and a company is blocked from the market for no reason, this is the United States? ”
Liu Gang is not a stunned person who doesn't know anything for a long time, and when people have seen more, they naturally know that the world is as black as a crow, and the United States is not a paradise. The America that everyone longed for when they were in school actually only existed in their imagination.
He can be said to have traveled a lot over the years, and the things he has experienced are rich and legendary.
He knows that not only here in the United States, but also on the entire planet, there has never been absolute fairness and justice.
The U.S. Congress is an organization that represents Americans, or more precisely, the interests of big business in the United States. Before Cisco was blocked by the Pan Han Group, its annual turnover could reach tens of billions of dollars, its profitability was more than 800 million, and hundreds of thousands of jobs were created.
Seeing that such a company has been forced into a corner by your Fanhan Group, how can Americans not be in a hurry to red-eyed? Not to mention programs such as the Prism Project that affect US hegemony. We need a Cisco that can dominate the world.
The Pan Han Group is now standing on the road of US hegemony.
The Internet economy is the backbone of the U.S. economic recovery. From the nineties, in the structure of the US national economy. It continues to play a bigger and bigger role.
Now that the whole world is moving with the Internet and wireless communication, this should be the time for the United States to reap the fruits of the victory of the network economy. Who would have thought that he would make a halfway trip to bite the gold, but this Fanhan Group wanted to pull teeth out of the tiger's mouth!
If Cisco loses in the market, think about what the result will be? It's not just hundreds of thousands of people who lose their jobs and billions of dollars in exports every year.
It is the failure of the entire American information industry, the disaster of Silicon Valley, and the end of NASDAQ!
Americans can't afford to lose in the market that Cisco represents.
The U.S. Congress is so biased in its attitude toward the Pan-John bloc. This is to be expected.
"Heh, isn't this the United States? At least when it comes to defending the interests of its own businesses, the U.S. government is always very active. ”
Zhou Shuo smiled indifferently and said: "The next thing is to please, we don't have much contact with the government in the United States, you can try to find a reliable lobbying company and also exert a little influence on the US Congress." The first consideration is reliability, the water is deep, don't be trapped. ”
He patted Liu Gang on the shoulder. sighed: "Let's do our best to obey the destiny of God, and it is best to solve the matter in the United States." ”
"Don't be pressured, I'm going to go back to China to try, involving more than a billion dollars in exports every year. The country has to support us, right? ”
Liu Gang said with a smile: "You can rest assured that I will do things, we have never eaten pork and seen pigs run in this way of Americans?" There are several well-known lobbying companies in the industry, don't be greedy for cheap words. Credibility is always reliable. ”
"If you have a plan in your heart, then I'll entrust you with this side of the matter."
"You can return to China with peace of mind!" Liu Gang patted his chest. Said with an oath.
After arranging the affairs of the United States, Zhou Shuo prepared to return to China non-stop. Speaking of which. At this point in time, he was not very worried.
The year 2001 was a very special year for China, except for the terrorist attack on the twin towers on September 11, 2001, what really changed the world pattern was actually one thing that was not so sensational at that time, that is, China's accession to the WTO.
The Chinese at that time were somewhat afraid of joining the WTO. Everyone inevitably thinks that this is to let foreign companies come in and eat the Chinese market. All walks of life have shouted the slogan that the wolf is coming.
In their minds, once foreigners enter China with such advanced technology and thoughtful ideas, how can our goods compete once they enter China without hindrance?
But it can only be said that the people who made our decisions at that time were wise. In the face of these pressures, China was forced to join the WTO.
I am afraid that at that time, there were very few people who could understand the impact of this incident on the world.
As a reborn person, Zhou Shuo certainly knows how much China has achieved after joining the WTO.
The phrase madeinchina really began the process of occupying the world after 2001.
The Americans' resistance to the Pan-Han clique will have a lot of room to maneuver after 911, and it will even be able to take advantage of the negotiations on China's accession to the WTO.
Under the general trend of international trade as a whole, and in the face of the growing anti-terrorism calls in the United States, the Americans will make many concessions in other directions.
As for how to resolve Cisco's dying struggle, Zhou Shuo honestly does not have a clear strategy for the time being. But even if any efforts didn't work in the end, it didn't matter, he was still determined to force the Americans to comply.
Because he still has a lot of cards to play in his hand. In the past few years of dormancy, he has not achieved nothing.
It's just that suddenly I have to return to this kind of "trapeze" life, which is really a little uncomfortable. Sitting down on a plane across the Pacific Ocean was like a serious illness.
When Zhou Shuo stepped on the land of God Capital again, he really breathed a sigh of relief. The fatigue of the journey will not make much difference because you do economy class and I do business class. Only when you are truly down-to-earth can you dispel the tiredness in your heart.
"Mr. Zhou, please get in the car. Shall we go to the Pan Han Research Institute to rest first, or how to arrange it? ”
Zhou Shuo thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Inquire where Hu Lao is now, and see if you can make an appointment right away." ”
Driving to the airport to pick him up was the new business manager of the Imperial Capital Research Institute of the Pan Han Research Institute, the original business manager Liu Hui is now the hero of the Hong Kong listing of ST Computer, as the first CEO of the natural scenery.
However, today's business manager of the Pan Han Research Institute is not the business of sweeping the streets and doing some small software. With the fame of Pan Han Group in China, the investment and reputation of Pan Han Research Institute have naturally risen. In addition to doing Fanhan Group's own scientific research projects, the institute now has spare capacity to do some commissioned business of scientific research projects.
The business manager of the Imperial Capital Research Institute is the person who is responsible for contacting enterprises and institutions with scientific research needs and arranging scientific research commissions.
Don't look at the fact that the business volume is several orders of magnitude less than at the beginning, and the manpower of the business department has also been reduced to single digits. But the profits earned from scientific research commissions every year can even catch up with the profits of Fanhan Entertainment.
Many people see the return on the technology investment of Fanhan Group. Since Pan Han Group can do it, naturally some people will follow suit.
If you don't have the scientific research strength of your own, it is a good choice to entrust the project to the Panhan Research Institute. The Panhan Group has a big business, and it is impossible to hack other people's projects, at least there is no problem with security.
Standing in such a position, the business manager of the Imperial Capital Research Institute has no personal connections in the high-tech industry.
A few phone calls went out, and Hu Lao's whereabouts were inquired.
After Hu Lao retired from the Ministry of Electronics Industry, he also served as the chairman of the Soong Ching Ling Foundation, which was actually just an idle position. The whereabouts of the so-called people go to tea and cool, and the whereabouts of former state ministerial-level leaders are not so worthy of secrecy. In addition, the relationship between Zhou Shuo and Hu Lao is clear to many people, so they will sue him after asking for instructions.
"Mr. Hu has a ceremony today, Starbucks in the United States donated a sum of money to the foundation, and it is now in the auditorium of the Normal University."
"Okay, let's go to the auditorium of the Normal University."
When he was in the imperial capital, Zhou Shuo was still very low-key, and after the Maybach was transported back to China, it was only opened in Xiucheng. Today, this car is just an ordinary Audi. Although the car is boring to drive, it is spacious and comfortable.
Zhou Shuo squinted slightly, and after being pushed awake, he found that he had arrived on the campus of the Imperial Normal University.
"I'll go by myself, you just stay in the car."
Zhou Shuo patted his face to make himself look a little more energetic. This is the case in the business world, no matter how much money you have or how much power you have, there will always be a time when you can't help yourself.
Once the United States decides to block the network equipment of the Pan Han Group, the daily losses caused are astronomical, which can directly affect the strategic development of the group. Even the founders and chairmen have to work hard.
In the auditorium of the Imperial Master's University, there were already people waiting at the door. Seeing Zhou Shuo climb the stairs, a middle-aged man in his forties and dressed in a formal suit greeted him.
"Mr. Zhou, right? Mr. Hu is presiding over the ceremony, let me come and pick you up. ”
"There is labor." Zhou Shuo nodded, and didn't ask who this person was. He didn't breathe, and calmly followed him towards the auditorium.
There was a small lounge next to the auditorium where Hu Lao was, and Zhou Shuo didn't wait too long here. More than ten minutes later, Hu Lao, who had a smile on his face, pushed open the door and walked in.
"Xiao Zhou, what makes you so anxious to find me?"
"Old Hu, I have nothing to do but ascend the Three Treasures Palace......" Zhou Shuo stood up and sighed. (To be continued......)
