Originally, Jester thought that it would not be easy to meet Guo now, but after Yoichi Erikawa contacted him through his own relationship, the other party heard what Jester meant and immediately said that he could come the next day. Japan meets in person.

Hon Hai Electronics has just transformed into an electronics manufacturing company a few years ago. It is prospering in the PC market, but it is not a big company.

However, Mr. Guo is a very discerning person, and in order to get a large number of orders, he is very able to cut corners. Jester has heard a lot about him, and it can be seen from these things. It is one or two of human beings.

Before meeting Mr. Guo, Jester was not only recalling his previous meeting with him because of the White Wolf incident, but also recalling some of the other person's experiences that he knew. However, the last time the meeting was too short, the two sides were not able to communicate with each other. We know very little about Guo, and our detailed understanding of Guo can only be analyzed from the information in his memory.

Jester was carefully analyzing the advantages of Mr. Guo. This was originally a potential partner of his. The profit from processing and production was actually not high, and there were too many trivial matters. In addition, the investment was huge, and the return was not much. , Jester is definitely not willing to grow up. The reason why he wants to build that processing center in the mainland is just because this is the best way at the moment.

Mr. Guo did not come from a wealthy family. He came from a poor family. He went to college at a junior college. He could not even afford the tuition fees at one time, so he had to work part-time in order to complete his studies. Of course, judging from the photos, Mr. Guo is young. Shi was not a handsome guy, but he married a daughter-in-law who was the school belle of Taipei Medical College at that time and came from a wealthy family. Moreover, they were in such a poor situation that they could only feed their children with rice soup as milk because they had no money. He has never given up on Mr. Guo, which shows that Mr. Guo is very talented and charming.

In fact, Hon Hai's full name is Hon Hai Precision Instruments Industrial Co., Ltd. It used to manufacture plastic products, similar to TV knobs. However, in the past few years, Guo had already discerned the potential business opportunities in the personal computer industry and invested in it. He used all his wealth to establish a company that assembles computers.

Moreover, Mr. Guo’s trip to the United States last year was widely circulated in the American business community, and many American businessmen were amazed. Even Jester, who doesn’t pay much attention to this news, knows a little bit about it. Many people in the Chinese circle They all say that Guo is a person with great ability, perseverance, and wisdom, and will definitely achieve great things.

IBM was not Guo Taiming's target at the beginning, because behemoths like Big Blue, with hundreds of thousands of employees and thousands of manufacturing plants, simply didn't bother to do OEM work. His target was those who made IBM's PC compatible machines. manufacturers, such as Compaq.

In order to get orders from these computer companies all over the United States, he drove by himself, stayed in motels that cost $12 a day, and traveled to 32 of the 52 states in the United States. In order to show his sincerity to Compaq, he simply stopped next to Compaq's headquarters. We invested in building a molding machine factory. As long as Compaq had a new design, we could see the model on the same day, and finally won a long-term order from Compaq.

These have all happened before, but there are many other stories about Guo Taiming that have never happened. For example, the most widely circulated one is that when he was investing in mainland China, he took the initiative to become Dell’s boss in order to have a few more minutes to chat with Dell. driver.

...So, Jester knew that the person he was about to meet was such a mature, tolerant, and talented person. It would be difficult for him to fight with this kind of person from the bottom in terms of knowledge, intelligence, and abilities. He has to compare himself to a man of such great wealth, so he has to know himself and his enemy so that he can win every battle.

This meeting was arranged by Jester. It was in a private room of a hotel. The scheduled time was 11 noon. As the host, he definitely needed to arrive in advance. Jester arrived before 10:30 to prepare in advance, but To Jester's surprise, Guo Taiming drove over just ten minutes after he arrived.

From Guo Taiming's very ordinary car, it is difficult to tell that he is a successful entrepreneur worth hundreds of millions, and he is also dressed very ordinary. The clothes are not big-name, but he is very clean and has a face of thirty-five years old. He was still quite young, but not very energetic. Jester could still see the other person's fatigue from his red and swollen eyes.

As soon as they met, Guo Taiming noticed the strange look in Jester's eyes. He smiled and said nonchalantly: "Something happened in the United States. I just came back last night and went to the company to work until three o'clock. In the morning, there was another incident. Catch this plane - no, I'll be here as soon as I get off the plane."

"Then sit inside."

Jester was silent after listening. He knew that the other party was a workaholic, but he didn't expect that he would be such a workaholic. Even if he had something to talk about tomorrow, he would have to work overtime at night. Thinking about it, he realized Is there no casual success?

There were only two people in the box, Jester and Guo Taiming. After they took their seats, neither of them spoke first. They each took a sip of tea first.

In the end, it was Guo Taiming who took the lead to break the silence.

"Mr. Li, I know why you came to me, and the fact that I came here today is enough to show my sincerity - in fact, if you had wanted to talk to me before this month, I might have declined. ." Putting down the teacup, Guo Taiming said lightly.

After listening, Jester somewhat understood what the other party meant, and he asked calmly: "Is it the statement from White Wolf?"

Guo Taiming did not admit or deny, he just smiled and said: "Now the second young master Jiang has been ordered to stay at home by Mr. Jiang, and now the public opinion is boiling, especially the pressure from the United States, and Mr. Jiang can hardly stand it. Stay..." As he spoke, Guo Taiming's eyes, which seemed a little dull because he had not slept all night, suddenly flashed, and he said, intentionally or unintentionally, "The day when martial law will be lifted is not far away."

"Haha." Jester smiled, and he said unintentionally, "If the martial law is not lifted, will it prevent Mr. Guo from investing in the mainland? I heard that some time ago, Mr. Guo made people... I went to Bao’an once under the guise of Hong Kong’s identity.”

Guo Taiming's expression changed slightly when he heard Jester's words. He didn't expect Jester to be so well-informed. Indeed, he also saw the incredible business opportunities brought about by the reform of the mainland. Needless to say, there was nothing else , but the cheap and almost negligible labor cost is the biggest temptation for the kind of labor-intensive enterprise he is engaged in, not to mention the welfare policy that is almost equivalent to a direct gift.

However, because of his special status, it was impossible for him to go to the mainland for inspection, so he just asked a person in charge of a Hong Kong company to go to Shenzhen Town, which was under construction in Shekou, to take a look. After listening to the report of his subordinate, he also There are growing expectations for investment and construction of factories in mainland China.

According to the channels he has access to, the lifting of martial law in Taiwan is basically a certainty this time. Therefore, he also has the idea of ​​​​going to the mainland to investigate in person this year.

Jester knew these secret information about Guo Taiming. Naturally, he had read his biography. Moreover, he also knew that just this year, after Guo Taiming personally visited the mainland for inspection, he decided to invest in the mainland without even hesitation. , in 1986, he established his first manufacturing factory in Baoan, Shenzhen.

Only then did Guo Taiming finally understand. It seemed that Jester's meeting with him this time was not just about negotiating an OEM contract. I'm afraid there would be a more in-depth cooperation. And he thought that Jester was now on the Internet. The large-scale manufacturing and R\u0026D integrated production center covering an area of ​​tens of thousands of acres that Shanghai Investment started to build, he also had some understanding in his heart. r1152
