Chapter 347: The Ambition of Sun's Big Head
Shirakawa Electric's European market began to lay out last year, but the real force began this year.
Britain, Germany, Gaul, Italy and other countries are the main targets.
Shirakawa Electric also has branches in Europe, mainly in Britain and South Wales.
They are all old capitalist countries, with a superior domestic business environment and relatively loose financial policies.
However, because Europe is a multilingual country, it takes a lot of money to have its own institutions in each region.
That is, from the second half of the year, because of the financing to obtain a large amount of funds, the layout in Europe has accelerated.
At the same time, the localization of some products can also be completed, so in September and October, Shirakawa Electric's products in Europe ushered in the moment of harvest.
For example, last month, according to the statistics of the financial report in hand, the total shipment of the Walkman reached more than 40 tens of thousands of units.
This sales volume is more than that of Neon and ranks second in the world, which is a little weaker than the Mi market.
This is still because the European market has just opened, and Shirakawa believes that it will not be a problem to double shipments in another year.
However, although the total population of Europe is nearly twice that of northern rice, the total market volume is still larger than that of the United States.
According to Shirakawa Electric's internal calculations, the future global market. North is the first, Europe is the second, and Neon is the third.
At present, the neon market has basically been fully developed, and the shipment volume of 20~300,000 per month is almost its limit.
Europe is in a state of just development, and if the market develops maturely, it is expected that there will be 70~800,000 shipments per month in the future.
As for Beimi, to be honest, the upper limit of this market is likely to surprise Shirakawa Electric's expectations.
At the beginning, it was expected that after the North Rice market matured, there would be nearly 900,000 shipments per month.
The East Coast market is now being explored, but shipments have reached the maximum expectations.
In the final analysis, the old rice is rich, and the concept of advanced consumption has become popular, so the market has gone all the way.
But this is a good thing for Shirakawa Electric, with a total shipment of nearly 1.5 million units per month, bringing 100 billion or more billion operating profits.
Shirakawa Kaede roughly calculated, and it is likely that the profits of the Walkman market alone this year will be able to earn the total profits of the entire Shirakawa Electric last year.
In addition to handhelds, headphones, new audio and CD players launched this year, Shirakawa Electric's operating profit will exceed everyone's expectations.
However, because of the listing, only more than half of it may end up in your pocket.
But it is precisely because of the listing that there is a large amount of capital that it has been exchanged for the rapid advancement of the North Mi and European markets.
There are gains and losses, and the perspective of looking at the problem cannot be limited to a certain point.
Also considering that Shirakawa Electric is now relatively abundant, the East Asian market has also begun to be included in the plan this year.
For example, Bangziguo, Lijiapo, Malay, Baodao, Xiangjiang and other regions, they will be the main strategic direction of Baichuan Electric's low-end products.
The profit may not be as high as in other overseas markets, but the torii must be erected first.
At the same time, sales channels can also be set up, all in preparation for the future.
If the layout of these overseas markets is all arranged, then Shirakawa Electric's global market development will be regarded as the main framework.
In the following decades, in accordance with the development of the economy, the business input of various localities was constantly adjusted.
If you want to say the biggest advantage of going public, it is that you have enough money to do with your previous plans.
The rapid expansion of the global market is one thing, and many other R&D projects that only exist in the plan have begun to form their own departments.
At the same time, those projects that have already been launched, with the support of large sums of money, are also developed much faster than before.
After all, the funds raised from the stock market, Shirakawa Kaede did not feel distressed.
As long as Shirakawa Electric remains profitable, the quarterly public financial report is worthy of the investment of shareholders.
So who will pay attention to where the financing money is spent, people are so realistic, as long as they make a profit, everything will be fine.
Some black-hearted enterprises, luxury cars and villas arranged for themselves, all of which are commonplace.
Shirakawa Kaede is like this, that is already a conscientious capitalist.
Putting down the various reports in his hand, Shirakawa Kaede stretched out as if relaxed.
The two weeks after the listing were really busy, and I thought that the bell would be finished.
Who knew that with the large amount of exposure brought by the listing, Shirakawa Kaede was busier than before.
Not to mention the invitations to various events, there is an endless stream of customers who come to visit every day.
Some wanted to interview him, some wanted to do business with Shirakawa Electric, and some came to attract investment.
Shirakawa Kaede has always thought that neon will not have a living soil for venture capital, but he didn't expect that there would still be some accidents.
For example, the big head of Sun that he saw by chance at the briefing last time, it was very surprising that he could find him.
Shirakawa Kaede also has some curiosity about this richest man who is three or four years older than him, but has become the richest man who will become famous in neon in the future.
So in the office, he also personally met with the founder of SoftBank.
However, what surprised him was that Sun's big head was really not an ordinary person, and he asked Bai Chuanfeng if he was interested in computers.
After Shirakawa Kaede nodded, he asked again, in this case, why didn't Shirakawa Electric produce its own computers.
Even the core of the computer, the processor chip can be handled, and what else can become a stumbling block for Shirakawa Electric.
Obviously, Son is also concerned about the existence of SIC and is even very optimistic about its future.
As for his question, Shirakawa Feng pondered for a while, and only replied that Shirakawa Electric had no such intention for the time being.
I thought about the computer Shirakawa Kaede, but then gave up on entering the console market, at least for now.
Because the current Shirakawa Group is not strong enough, SIC is like a newborn calf that cannot withstand the toss.
Who is SIC's biggest customer in the chip business?
The answer is Fujitsu, and more specifically, SIC chips are mainly used in Fujitsu's computers.
As of today, the shipment has approached one million pieces, a proper large customer.
If Shirakawa Electric starts a computer business, it will mean that it will compete directly with Fujitsu.
Will Fujitsu purchase SIC chips by then?
Shirakawa Kaede didn't know, and he didn't want to lose SI's biggest customer at the moment because of the ethereal computer market.
Although the expansion of capital is instinctive, before it is not strong enough, Shirakawa Kaede tries his best to avoid conflicts of interest between companies with which he has a cooperative relationship.
For example, the core club within the Daiichi Bank Foundation is the object of Shirakawa Kaede's great avoidance.
At the beginning, Beidu Bank was because it was a last resort, otherwise Shirakawa Kaede would not have ventured into the banking industry.
Even so, in exchange for benefits, he agreed to the financing request of the First Persuasion Bank, making the other party the second largest shareholder of Shirakawa Electric.
If we go to direct competition with Fujitsu, to be honest, there will definitely be opinions within the consortium about Shirakawa Electric.
Enjoy shelter under the wings of the other party, blocking interference from the outside world.
Now they are turning their heads and grabbing the market share of the nuclear enterprises within the consortium, which is not authentic no matter how you look at it.
Neon people are very traditional, and in their eyes, it is appropriate for the consortium to support each other.
Fujitsu will use SIC chips, and it is for the sake of Shirakawa Electric that it is a member of the First Bank Consortium to place an order.
Otherwise, there are so many mature chips in the United States, isn't it fragrant?
Now if Shirakawa Kaede doesn't take into account the interests within the consortium, there will be absolutely no good fruit to eat.
Since you're in Neon, follow its rules.
Shirakawa Electric is still in the growth period, so don't lose the soil for survival for the sake of immediate benefits.
It seems that he can see that Bai Chuanfeng has his own unspeakable secrets, and Sun's eyes are another idea.
He suggested that the computers produced by Shirakawa Electric should be branded with Unison World, and the sales would also be handled by him.
The so-called Unison World is the predecessor of SoftBank, which was originally engaged in the computer wholesale business.
In the past few years, the development has been good, and Sun Datou has also begun to think about making his own computer.
Thinking about it, it seems that the only one with this strength on the market is Shirakawa Electric, which is not a descendant of the chaebol.
But there is such a killer feature as chips, which is simply the sum of heaven made in SoftBank's entry into the computer industry.
However, what he thinks is beautiful, but the reality is very skinny.
Seeing Sun's big head gushing about the broad prospects of the computer career, Shirakawa Kaede almost applauded him.
It's really smart, this is to let Shirakawa Electric be his brand foundry.
To be honest, Sun's big head at this age is still a little naïve, and his methods are much rougher.
If it's other unknown small brands, it doesn't matter, it is likely that he agreed to the way of cooperation with each other under his flickering.
But who is Shirakawa Electric? Is there a lack of this OEM fee?
If Shirakawa Kaede does OEM for him, when the time comes, Sun Datou will get the computer and turn his head to advertise that this is a product of Shirakawa Electric.
At that time, Shirakawa Kaede will be speechless, not only that, but also lose his identity and evil others.
However, although Sun's big head idea is a little naïve, his vision is still there.
Computers do have a lot to offer in the future, and it seems that software and communications will also be one of the priorities of future business.
For his best Amway, Shirakawa Kaede did not directly refuse, but gave him a business card.
Shirakawa Electric will not OEM for others, but Anke can.
Even Anke's main business is OEM, and Eiji Kimura has always had the idea of making his own products.
That's just right now, the two smart ones throw a piece and let them toss.
It doesn't matter if you want to make a computer, the chips of SIC are ready to go, welcome to come and purchase.
At that time, the computer I made had nothing to do with Shirakawa Electric, and Fujitsu wouldn't say anything.
cough~ Although I am the one who makes the money, business is sometimes like this, and the angle of turning is completely different.
Cooperate with IBM on optical drives, cooperate with Sun Datou on computers, and other all kinds of visitors.
After these bits and pieces were dealt with, it was the middle of October in a blink of an eye.
And on this day, the outside world turned its attention to Shirakawa Electric again.
Why? Because the world's first portable CD player is about to go on sale.
