On Monday morning, Lu Jing and Ding Ling flew from Seoul to Tokyo, leaving Cheng Jianfeng to preside over the overall situation in Seoul. At this time, criticism in the domestic media about Jinghua's acquisition of Hyundai Semiconductor is still endless.

Zheng Zhongjie, general manager of Jinghua's overseas operation department, picked up Lu Jing outside the VIP passage of the airport, accompanied by the manager of Jinghua's Japanese branch. Lu Jing shook hands with the two and said a few words, and then sat in the car with Ding Ling.

Zheng Zhongjie asked with a smile: "Jing Shao, in addition to inspecting Japan's R&D center this time, do you also want to talk to Japanese manufacturers about plasma display technology?" ”

He had flown from Seoul to Tokyo at the end of April to negotiate with a mobile operator in Japan about mobile phones. As the general manager of Jinghua's overseas operation department, his current focus is mainly on the two mature mobile phone markets in Japan and South Korea.

Plasma (PDP) display technology and liquid crystal display (TFT) display technology are the most advanced screen technologies in the world. Jinghua's future research directions on the screen are nothing more than these two directions. And Jinghua has just hit a wall in South Korea, and it is normal to seek PDP display technology instead.

It's just that Lu Jing has long known the application prospects of TFT screens on mobile phones and consumer electronics, so of course he won't change his course at this time, and waved his hand with a smile, "No." I came over to take a look, and I was going back to Korea in two days to continue to pay attention to the acquisition. ”

Zheng Zhongjie was stunned, he didn't know how Lu Jing still had the confidence to acquire Hyundai Semiconductor's TFT LCD business, so he nodded and drove Lu Jing to the Tokyo Hilton Hotel.

Tokyo is one of the largest cities in the world, with many high-rise buildings. It's so bustling that you can even feel the cold air that is unique to this city.

The Hilton Tokyo is not far from the airport. It will be there in about ten minutes. Lu Jing asked Ding Ling and Zheng Zhongjie to hand over the itinerary for the next two days, and he went to check in first.

"What are you most excited about when you come to Tokyo?" Sit at a bright glass round table in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the Executive Suites at the Hilton Tower. Ding Ling gently tapped Lu Jing's feet with his toes, propped his hands on the table, and said with his slightly round cheeks.

Lu Jing leaned on the pale yellow soft chair relaxed, and said with a shy smile: "Can I say that I am looking forward to experiencing the style of Japanese high school students?" Every time I look at it on the computer, I find it tempting. ”

Ding Ling glanced at Lu Jing sweetly and lovely, then bit her lip and asked slightly shyly: "Eh, do you boys like to watch that..." Once curiously flipped through Lu Jing's laptop, but I didn't expect to see him download a lot of small movies that are not suitable for children.

"Pretty much." Lu Jing is not shy about it. Said with a smile. He wrote those movies out of a retrospective of his past life. In his previous life, he saw a sentence on the Internet that made him feel that it was very illustrative of the changes in the world: I used to see such a beautiful girl go to make a small movie, and I felt that it was a pity; Later, I felt that it was a pity that such a beautiful girl didn't go to make a small movie.

"It's really obscene..."Ding Ling said lightly patting her blushing cheek. Then, I also learned the appearance of Lu Jing, leaned back on the chair relaxedly, and felt some happy emotions in my heart like mushrooms after the spring rain.

Jinghua's R&D center in Japan is located in Tsukuba, about 50 kilometers from Tokyo. On the second day of Lu Jing's arrival in Japan, he went to inspect the R&D center with Ding Ling, Zheng Zhongjie and others.

Lu Jing's main purpose in coming to Japan was to have a vacation with Ding Ling. The ups and downs of Hyundai semiconductors make people feel a little tired. Samsung's covert acquisition of Hyundai Semiconductor allowed Lu Jing to find a breakthrough. Taking advantage of Samsung's thinking for a few days, he happened to go to Japan to relax his nerves.

After three days in Japan. Lu Jing received a call from Cheng Jianfeng: Jin Yourong asked for an interview with him. Lu Jing immediately booked a ticket with Ding Ling to return to Seoul.

The golden sunset sets on the roof of the departure hall at Haneda Airport, and the crowd is endless. While the assistants were checking in, Zheng Zhongjie gave Lu Jing a brief report in the waiting hall on the progress of his negotiations with Japanese mobile operators on the sales of Jinghua mobile phones.

"Only a small operator with 100,000 users is willing to cooperate with us," Zheng Zhongjie said ashamedly.

Lu Jing smiled and patted Zheng Zhongjie's shoulder, "Don't worry too much." Although it may discourage you when I say this, the focus of Jinghua's overseas mobile phone market should not be on the Japanese mobile phone market, but on North America. Your focus can now be on the Korean mobile phone market. ”

It's not that Lu Jing doesn't have confidence in Jinghua's mobile phone. But. The iPhone, which was popular all over the world, failed to conquer the Japanese market. The most fundamental reason for this is that the cooperation between Japanese mobile phone manufacturers and mobile operators is very in-depth and meticulous, providing Japanese users with excellent Internet speed and various humanized services. As a result, the Japanese mobile phone market has a tendency to be almost independent of the global mobile phone market. It has become extremely difficult for other electronics manufacturers to gain market share in Japan.

However, this deeply customized strategy. There are very obvious drawbacks. Japanese mobile phone manufacturers and operators have their own closed systems. There is no unified OS system. There are only mainstream standards.

Therefore, when the Japanese mobile phone manufacturers go overseas to explore the market, the technical troubles they encounter can be imagined.

Once Japanese mobile phone manufacturers leave Japan, their performance in other mobile phone markets is like a "brick" piled up with hardware.

The Japanese are amazing for their attention to detail, but they are also notoriously unstrategic.

Win in the details, lose in the whole.

Lu Jing does not plan to completely give up the Japanese mobile phone market, there will always be some opportunities, but he does not approve of letting Jinghua invest too much energy in developing the Japanese market.

….

In the office of the general manager of Jinghua Hancheng Building, Lu Jing smiled and invited Jin Yourong to sit down. In the morning, Ding Ling was still in the hotel to catch up on sleep. Yu Haoning, general manager of Jinghua Korea Branch, temporarily acted as an assistant and made a pot of tea and sent it in.

Jin Yourong exchanged a few words with Lu Jing, and then said, "Mr. Lu, Chairman Li has decided to agree to your request last time. But Hyundai Semiconductor's sale price for the TFT LCD business is $350 million. ”

Lu Jing frowned and said, "Assistant Jin, I remember that the purchase price I said was $250 million. ”

Jin Yourong smiled faintly and said, "This is what President Li meant!" "The attitude is very tough.

Lu Jing smiled bitterly in his heart, it seems that it is still a little difficult to bluff a character like Lee Kun-hee. Of course, he can use his influence in the rare earth industry to make Samsung C&T unable to buy a single rare earth. However, it is not worth the cost to use such a means that may cause international trade disputes for the sake of a price difference of 100 million US dollars.

Lu Jing thought silently for a while and said, "Okay." I hope to close the deal as soon as possible. I heard that tomorrow Sony will sign an agreement with Hyundai Semiconductor not to transfer TFT LCD technology to third parties. ”

Jin Yourong smiled and said, "There is no problem with this. "How could Sony's agreement be taken to heart by him. Samsung has acquired a 37% stake in Hyundai Semiconductor.

Lu Jing nodded.

According to Zheng Mengxian's news, it is initially expected that Sony will acquire 16% of Hyundai Semiconductor's shares, which is much lower than the shares acquired by Samsung.

At this time, he needs to step back into the background and let Samsung and Sony fight.

…

In the afternoon, in the luxurious executive suite of the Shilla Hotel in Seoul, Wu Xuan said with a smile: "Being asked for $350 million by Samsung, don't you feel comfortable?" ”

She had just heard Lu Jing talk about meeting Jin Yourong in the morning. The actual value of the deal should be at least $300 million. Lu Jing wanted $250 million, but the price was raised to $350 million, and he had to pinch his nose and admit it.

Lu Jing smiled bitterly: "A little." As he spoke, he sat down beside Wu Xuan, gently held her in his arms, and stroked her cloud-like hair.

Wu Xuan said with a smile: "You, don't think that everyone in the world is revolving around you, and occasionally suffer a little loss as an experience." It's done. Besides, isn't it enough that so many of us are circling around you? ”

Lu Jingzhi said what she said about Li Muqing. Lee Muqing will come to South Korea in two days to prepare for the concert of Lee Hye Kyo and other Korean artists. Looking at the beautiful and charming Wu Xuan, Lu Jing took her into his arms, pressed against her snow-white face, and said with a smile: "Why do you think your comforting words are not strong enough." Listen to you, it's a blessing to suffer. But I'm a very small man. ”

"Virtue!" Wu Xuan coquettishly whitened Lu Jing, and reached out to touch Lu Jing's cheek.

Lu Jing couldn't help but smile.

Wu Xuan inspected the address of the hotel in Seoul and planned to allocate $80 million to build a 20-story five-star hotel. When Lu Jingzheng and Wu Xuan were talking about the Lido Hotel, Lu Jing's mobile phone suddenly rang.

Lu Jing looked at the number and answered the phone strangely, "Director Yan?" ”

It was Yan Shining who called. Yan Shi Ning said, "Lu Jing, I have something to talk to you about." Are you free now? ”

Lu Jing turned his head to look at Wu Xuan, who was lying on his shoulder listening to the phone, and was about to say that he was not free, when his heart suddenly moved, and said, "Okay, you say the place, I'll go over." ”

"Who?" Wu Xuan asked with a smile, his black and white eyes looked at Lu Jing brightly, and there was an undisguised ambiguous suspicion in his eyes.

"It's Yan Shining. I reckon she should have good news for me. Lu Jing smiled and pinched Wu Xuan's delicate face, "I'll go talk about business and come back as soon as I go." You and Xiaoling will talk first. ”

"Okay." Wu Xuan glanced at the half-open bedroom, Ding Ling was still resting inside, when she came to see Lu Jing, she went in to see it, and Ding Ling was so ashamed. I couldn't get out of bed in the afternoon, and God knows how crazy the two of them had been last night and this morning.

…

…

Lu Jing and Yan Shi Ning meet in an inconspicuous coffee shop. After meeting, Yan Shining put a data bag in her hand in front of Lu Jing and asked lightly, "The personal request you told me last time still counts, right?" (To be continued......)
