For Yuqi Liu, the mayor of the island city, the rise of SAL is an amazing miracle.

Unlike most high-ranking officials, Mayor Liu Yuqi is an out-and-out bureaucrat with a technical background, he has a master's degree in communication engineering from Tsinghua University, and has risen step by step from the research department under the Ministry of Information Industry to the vice-ministerial level of senior officials, and then transferred to the second-in-command of the sub-provincial city of the island city.

After SAL's acquisition of Nokia's mobile phone business caused a domestic sensation, Mayor Liu also had a more in-depth study of this company, including several mainstream products launched by SAL, from voice input methods to navigators, brainwave telekinetic helmets, and then to new mobile phones.

To be honest, Mayor Liu was skeptical of SAL products at first, according to his understanding of the domestic technical level, at this stage, the country can launch products close to the international mainstream level, that is, very, very good, such as the IT industry to launch the world's leading products, now the basic technical level is not supported.

But the results of the trial made him completely overturn his original opinion.

Yes, according to Mayor Liu's division, this is not a partial lead, but a comprehensive lead, and the speech recognition technology that has reached a completely practical level has subverted the human-machine interface of the entire product.

Unlike previous voice control concept products, SAL's voice control products have an almost unassailable recognition rate. With this technology alone, Mayor Liu judged that SAL would further develop and enter new product areas.

From these products, I learned that behind all this stood a technical genius Duke who is said to be the closest to the Nobel Prize in China, Mayor Liu was tempted, he once sent someone to SAL to contact, trying to introduce SAL to the island city, but because SAL was concentrating on the development of Chengdu at that time, there was no plan to go out, Mayor Liu had to regret it.

The SAL acquisition of Feihong shares in the province plan was blocked, Cai Siqiang released the news to go out of the province, the acquisition of suitable objects nationwide, the news quickly spread through the financial circles, Mayor Liu received the news, almost without hesitation immediately sent his own office director to come forward, warmly invited Cai Siqiang to visit the island city.

There are now two large home appliance companies in the island city. However, now it is a strong and a weak, although the weak one can still make do now, the situation is stronger than the take-off rainbow shares, but it has not been able to break through in product upgrading, and has advanced into the high-end mainstream market.

There is no way, the technical breakthrough is too difficult, especially the original technical foundation and accumulation is much weaker than the competition, how difficult it is to achieve the overall breakthrough, but if there is no technological breakthrough, the product is in the leading position in the industry, and the rising brand wants to advance from the low-end to the high-end, which is obviously a fool's dream.

However, this weak one is still state-owned, and compared with other competitors in the same city with extremely complex property rights, the annual sales difference is dozens of times, which directly highlights the incompetence of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission. Therefore, after Mayor Liu took charge of the island city, he has been pouring great effort into this enterprise. I hope to be able to support it, but two years have passed, and there is still not much improvement.

There is no way, not everyone has a powerful artifact like Duke in their bodies, with the ability to turn stones into gold, so Mayor Liu urgently needs to introduce foreign funds and technology.

However, of course these causes and effects Cai Siqiang is not clear, since the island city is the first to be invited, then take a trip, the home appliance company called Haisheng, Cai Siqiang also has some concepts, the brand is second-line, the key is that the plate is not big, the total market value of more than 10 billion yuan, if you want to control, it will be more than 1 billion US dollars.

"Warmly welcome SAL President Cai Siqiang to visit the island city!" A long banner floated in the wind at the place where he got off the plane, next to the banner, a tall figure with a group of people was waiting where, seeing Cai Siqiang and Cai Linfeng, the director of the Island City Government Office who accompanied him, appeared together, the tall middle-aged man enthusiastically stretched out his hand and walked towards Cai Siqiang, which made Cai Siqiang a little stunned.

"Mr. Cai, this is our Mayor Liu!" Cai Linfeng hurriedly introduced on the side.

"Mayor Liu, Mr. Cai Siqiang, President of SAL, I have invited you!" After Cai Linfeng introduced Cai Siqiang, he turned his head and reported to Liu Yuqi.

"Oh, Mayor Liu, hello! Hello! How dare Cai" Cai Siqiang immediately smiled and held Liu Yuqi's outstretched hand with both hands.

"Mr. Cai, welcome! It's been hard all the way, please here! Mayor Liu also enthusiastically clasped his hands, shook hands with Cai Siqiang for about ten seconds before separating, and let Cai Siqiang and his party to the VIP car waiting on the side.

Mayor Liu was so enthusiastic, which made Cai Siqiang a little flattered, but there must be something to ask for in courtesy, thinking of this, Cai Siqiang was a little excited and a little vigilant at the same time.

Cai Siqiang and Mayor Liu got into the same car and went straight to the Shangri-La Hotel under the police car.

It was only more than 20 kilometers from the airport to the Shangri-La Hotel, and Cai Siqiang and Mayor Liu came to the hotel soon after greeting each other.

When Cai Siqiang got out of the car, he hung a huge welcome message on the Shangri-La Hotel building, "Warmly welcome Mr. Cai Siqiang, President of SAL, and his party to visit the island city for investment and inspection".

The black pressure in front of the hotel was full of people greeting him, which made Cai Siqiang's scalp tingle, this posture was too sincere. It seems that if you don't leave something in the island city, you really can't leave.

"This is our executive vice mayor Comrade Li Xikai, he is now mainly responsible for the work of industry and SASAC, this is Comrade Liu Datong of the Municipal SASAC, this is Mr. Wei Zaishen, President of Haisheng......" Cai Siqiang followed Mayor Liu Yuqi, one after another to introduce and shake hands, basically the people who have something to do with the acquisition negotiations have arrived.

It can be seen that at this point, Mayor Liu is very thoughtful, the first is to convey a clear message to the people around him, the city attaches great importance to this matter, and warns the people below not to be moths; Second, introduce relevant personnel to Cai Siqiang and establish direct contact to avoid miscommunication in the middle.

It took more than ten minutes to introduce this circle, which made Cai Siqiang's handshake almost sour. Li Yuntian, the domestic affairs assistant next to him, was even more nervous, it was impossible for Mr. Cai to remember so many people, but he had to write it down, Du Chengyi had already been promoted, which was both an incentive and a spur for Li Yuntian.

So Mayor Liu introduced that Li Yuntian followed Cai Siqiang behind and worked hard to record, distribute and collect the other party's business cards. By the time Mayor Liu finally finished his introduction, Li Yuntian was already sweating profusely, and he had collected a thick stack of business cards in his handbag.
