Chapter 1145: TOEFL
Seeing Duan Yun's confident look, Fujio was a little unimpressed.
Fujio himself knows the president of their Panasonic Group very well, and in his opinion, their Toshiba chairman Shochi Saba is a leader full of great wisdom, strong will, and vision, and has always put the interests of the company first, and will never change his mind because of some rhetoric from customers.
Moreover, the conditions proposed by Fujio to Duan Yun this time are the final decision made by the president, and if any of them cannot be met, Toshiba's joint venture factory in China will be in vain, and there will be no room for maneuver.
As for Duan Yun's $50 million desire to win the entire bulk chip production line, this seems to Fujio Masuoka to be a bit fantastical, because even a second-hand production line of Toshiba is worth about 40 million to 60 million, not to mention the flash memory chip production line that contains some of the most advanced equipment in the world.
"Duan Jun ......" At this moment, Fujio Masuoka was ready to confide the truth to Duan Yun and inform him that this production line was no longer possible.
"Mr. Fujio, you have said everything you should say, and I have understood everything, you stay in China for the past two days, and I will do my best as a landlord, and when my handwritten letter is finished, you can take him back to Japan. Duan Yun interrupted Fujio's words and said with a smile.
"This ...... Okay......" Fujio Masuoka nodded when he heard this, a flash of helplessness on his face.
There is no doubt that Fujio Masuoka is very eager for the company to resurrect its flash chip project, because in his opinion, "Flash" chip technology is his proudest research project, and this technology should be epoch-making, not so ruthlessly buried.
However, the thinking of people engaged in technology and product marketing is not unified, the former focuses on technological progress, while the latter is most interested in market value.
In fact, after learning that Duan Yun could not come up with $100 million, the disheartened Fujio Masuoka didn't want to stay here anymore, but Duan Yun was his admiring friend, and in the face of his hospitality, Fujio Masuoka could only stay in China for two days first.
"Drink!" At this time, Yun raised his wine glass, he seemed to see Fujio's thoughts, and said to him with a smile: "There is an old saying in China, it is called a drink to relieve a thousand sorrows, let all the troubles disappear, tomorrow will definitely be better." ”
"Hmm. Hearing this, a bitter smile flashed on Fujio Masuoka's face, and he picked up his wine glass and touched it with Duan Yun, and drank it all.
That night, Fujio Masuoka drank a lot of alcohol and stayed with Duan Yun in the Guangzhou office for one night.
Early in the morning of the second day, Duan Yun drove him to the electronics factory, and then asked people to arrange a room for him in the product technology research and development center, so that Fujio could live in the research and development center for the past two days.
In fact, the main reason why Fujio Masuoka stayed here for two days was that he wanted these researchers at the Product Technology R&D Center to learn some advanced Japanese technology from him.
"Xiao Yun, please give Mr. Fujio a translator in the past two days, so that he can communicate with the personnel of our product technology research and development center as much as possible, he is the director of Toshiba's microelectronics department, and his technical level is very high......" Duan Yun said after finding Li Yun at this time.
"It's nothing of trouble, it's my job. Li Yun smiled slightly, and then said: "Brother Duan, don't you just want the technicians of our factory to learn more technology from this Japanese, I must coordinate with Professor Zhao and them in the past two days, and I promise that he will not be able to leave the factory!"
"Hahaha!" Duan Yun laughed when he heard this, and said to Li Yun: "Work hard, go back and give you a salary increase!"
Duan Yun still admires Li Yun very much, she is not only talented and smart, she has the ability to never forget, but she is also far more mature than her peers, and she knows some people more sophisticated, and it is very easy to communicate with this kind of employee, you don't have to worry about chickens talking to ducks at all.
"Forget about the salary increase. Li Yun's eyes flashed, and she said to Duan Yun: "If Brother Duan goes abroad in the future, just take me with you." ”
"There must be a chance for this, you said that the only translator in our factory, Japanese and German are good, if there is a chance, your sister-in-law and I will definitely take you abroad." Duan Yun said with a smile.
"Then let's settle it ourselves!" Li Yun said happily.
In fact, Li Yun works as a translator in Duan Yun's company, and she usually works very leisurely, while she spends most of her time learning foreign languages and preparing to take the TOEFL test.
Later generations may find it unbelievable, but in Beijing and Shanghai in the 80s of the last century, TOEFL was a "buzzword" on the lips of many young people all day long.
As early as 1981, the TOEFL test was introduced in China, and the number of test takers is increasing year by year.
In Beijing, for example, there were only 285 people in 1981, 8,000 in 1985, 18,000 in 1986, and in the 90s, people often had to queue up all night, and there were still people who could not be named.
Li Yun had already planned her life very early, although she was just a girl, she had a lot of ambition and sharpness.
After settling down the Fujio matter, there is one more thing that needs to be resolved, that is, getting an invitation letter for the joint venture from the Shenzhen Municipal Government.
In fact, the so-called invitation letter for drugs is nothing more than a kind of government's commitment to foreign-funded enterprises, including ensuring a good business environment and some relatively preferential policy support.
In the 80s, state-owned enterprises spent foreign exchange to introduce foreign production lines, most of which were led by the government, and some were municipal department leaders, such as Duan Yun in Daxing before, Ruiyang, who served as the director of the Light Industry Bureau, had taken the lead in introducing automobile production lines from Germany, and there was a contract signed by senior officials to go abroad to inspect and sign, all in all, any state-owned enterprise wants to introduce equipment from abroad, it must apply to the higher authorities, and after passing the approval, the introduction of foreign production lines can be implemented.
But China is a socialist country, and Duan Yun's enterprise is a private enterprise, without the guarantee of the local government department, basically no foreign company dares to venture into the establishment of joint ventures in China, which is also a consensus of foreign companies, so this is Toshiba to Duan Yun to ask for a government invitation letter, and it is precisely for this reason.
If it is changed to other cities in China, it may be difficult for the government to guarantee private enterprises, but in Shenzhen, the government's decision-making is relatively flexible, and many things can be done in special matters, especially Duan Yun is currently a business card of private enterprises in Shenzhen, so this can still be done......
