"Then thank you Miss Zhang for the opportunity to meet this time. We have agreed on the 28th of this month... After I return to the Special Administrative Region, I will definitely visit you. The specific details will be discussed in detail after we meet... Okay...

…Goodbye then…”

After hanging up the phone, Ning Zimo gave an OK gesture to Sima Lin with satisfaction, then walked to the beach chair next to her and lay down contentedly.

Seeing his comfortable and satisfied look, Sima Lin, who was sitting on the beach chair, smiled slightly.

I always feel that when he is relaxed, he behaves like a child, and he wants to go far away from the serious look he usually has.

"You seem to value this Miss Zhang Lihua very much."

"Of course, there are many big names in Huawei Company, and Ms. Zhang Lihua is one of the very reserved representatives. She was born in science and engineering, and she started to take root in Huawei's technical line in 1997 and stayed there for 5 years.

R&D, business, market research, middle management, she went up step by step in Huawei.

She followed Hua Wei through the midsummer to the cold winter, and during the cold winter she focused on the 3G mobile phone business, and produced strong evidence to make Brother Ren do the reflection in 2002. After that, Hua Wei followed her

The professional research determined and their concentrated investment led to their success in Cannes, France in February this year."

Ning Zimo knew more about Zhang Lihua than this.

Because he met her at a speech in Silicon Valley in the United States in 2016 in his previous life, he happened to see a speech and exchange she gave on planting innovation.

Faced with the pointed question raised by an American reporter during that exchange:

As an employee who has been away from Hua Wei for a long time, why do you want to speak for Hua Wei and deny that Hua Wei won because of the support of the flower growing government?

Full of confidence in her bones, she answered the man's question in a slightly angry tone:

After investing a total of RMB 4 billion in the early GSM and 3G product lines of Huawei, it has still been unable to make a breakthrough in the flower market after several years. If Huawei has government support, 3g should be the first to be used in flower planting, and cdma1x will not be forced to move abroad.

.On the contrary, Ericsson, Cisco, and Motorola have a large proportion in the country. Until Huahua

After Huawei opened the market overseas in Europe and proved its strength, Huawei's 3g and gsm product lines achieved substantial breakthroughs in the flower market in 2008. Huawei faced these difficulties in the development process, especially in the early days of opening up the flower market.

Difficulties are all historical evidence that there is no official investment in flower planting in Huawei!

After two lifetimes and eight years, Ning Zimo is still deeply impressed by Zhang Lihua's resounding response.

A woman growing flowers, at the "advanced age" of 40 years old, in a foreign country, used her personal experience and her professionalism to win the applause of everyone present!

At that time, she was among the people applauding.

Later, Luban Technology in the previous life was fortunate enough to invite her to Luban to learn about management consulting work. During that time, Ning Zimo had close contact with this unknown strong woman. Then Luban came to Luban with her help.

, followed by its listing and take-off.

"Huawei has been developing for many years, and has experienced successes and failures along the way. But no matter what, Huawei has experienced many hurdles. How to overcome these hurdles and how to summarize these failed experiences is exactly what Huawei once did."

The stepping stone for another successful counterattack. Miss Zhang Lihua has experienced a lot with Hua Wei over the years, and her experiences of success and failure are all engraved in her bones.

Based on my analysis of the information collected about her, I can use the characters in "Slam Dunk" as an analogy. If we say that Li Ying, the second master of Emperor Penguin, is a master of her own, who has repeatedly grown up through success.

. Then Zhang Lihua, who has experienced many twists and turns with Hua Wei, is just like Ah Fu in "Slam Dunk" who becomes more and more courageous from setbacks.

Moreover, although Zhang Lihua studied engineering, her expressive ability is really strong. "Huawei Digest" has collected excellent articles over the years, including articles published by Zhang Lihua in the company in 2001 and 2002. She is the earliest employee in the company

Among the specially hired teachers, many of the examination questions for Huawei cadres were written by her. Therefore, she is a person with very strong comprehensive abilities."

Although he felt that the person listening with big eyes shining this time was not Li Ying but Sima Lin, but the stars shining in her eyes made Ning Zimo feel that he had the desire to talk smoothly with the transparent Li Ying.

.

After a pause, Ning Zimo smiled again and said, "Emperor Penguin's development has been too smooth. After the acquisition of Skype at the beginning of the year, the entire company was filled with a false sense of vanity after success."

The scene in my mind comes back to the scene when I first returned to the Emperor Penguin office at the beginning of the year, and everyone in the office blocked the door and shouted "the richest man".

Ning Zimo frowned unconsciously, "Emperor Penguin must have someone who has experienced failure personally and insists on succeeding. Moreover, his mind must be kept clear at all times and he can correct the details that even I can't see.

In this way, the big ship Emperor Penguin can always maintain the correct direction.

Zhang Lihua is the role I have chosen for our Emperor Penguins. Everything she has experienced in Huawei can be put to good use in the Emperor Penguins. As long as she can join our team, the Emperor Penguins can add another

Big help!”

After Ning Zi finished speaking in silence, he realized that Sima Lin had been looking at her intently, and the light in her eyes even made him feel a little overwhelmingly powerful.

He immediately smiled at Sima Lin and said, "What's the matter? It's scary to look at me like this."

Sima Lin tilted her head slightly and smiled, "Originally, I was a little worried about your negotiation with the Motorola CEO named Zafirovsky, because I thought he was the general manager of a traditional enterprise after all, and

Everyone you met before is different. But after what you said, I am not worried at all."

Sima Lin's eyelashes fluttered gently, and her face was stained with a slight blush.

"Because I think you always know what you want at work."

Ning Zimo was stunned for a moment, suddenly confused and confused about the reason for the crimson color on Sima Lin's face.

Why do you need to blush when you praise someone?

Don't understand.

Besides,

Talk to the Westerner,

He is not as kind as Yang Lihua.

***+***

Zafirovsky was a little confused about the situation in front of him. After traveling thousands of miles to Yazhou, he met the young Internet upstart named Ning Zimo under the introduction of Ren Zhengfei.

Now they are sitting in the multi-function hall of the Sheraton Hotel. There are only two of them in the huge conference room. This somewhat inexplicable meeting is not a happy one, because after all, they are not in the same industry.

I came to see him just for the sake of the face of Huawei's boss, Ren Zhengfei, and because of the somewhat legendary story about this young upstart that has spread in Silicon Valley.

But for such a long time, he didn't talk about any Internet topic with the young upstart opposite. The main reason why he could still sit here patiently was because of the sudden words of the young upstart.

"Zafirovsky, I want to ask you a question. If, I mean if! When the Motorola board of directors makes a new decision, they decide to parachute a new boss, at that time he will be superior to you.

How do you deal with the powerful second child? Is it another game, or is it better to turn the ship around and persuade him to support your original decision to acquire Hua Wei?"

This is something only the top executives of Motorola know about!

Why would a flower grower know his situation so well?

What channels did he have to get this information?

Thinking of this, Zafirovsky's face darkened.

Ning Zimo watched with interest the changing expressions on Zafirovsky's face, not caring about his gloomy face.

"Zafirovsky, in fact, this is not surprising. Although I have not been following you for a long time, if I really dig hard, I will definitely learn about your current situation from some clues. You must know that you have worked at GM for 24 years.

, is a very experienced manager. Otherwise, Motorola would not have asked you to serve as the president of their personal communications department from the beginning."

"Ning, what do you mean? We don't have to go around in circles. You must know that my time is precious when I come to plant flowers this time." Zafirovsky frowned again.

"Relax, Zafirovsky," Ning Ziyao chuckled, then asked first, "Zafirovsky, the name Zafirovsky is a bit difficult to pronounce, can I call you Mike?

?”

"As you wish, the name is just a code name after all."

"Okay, Mike," Ning Zimo twisted his body to make himself look more relaxed.

Then he said, "Mike, I have followed you for a short time, but I am very interested in your resume. Because during the last 24 years of your tenure at GM, you established quite a large network of contacts in Europe.

That’s what interests me most about you.”

Mike Zafilovsky's forehead wrinkled again.

After all, it is not something commendable to be valued by a young man who is much younger than yourself.

If he hadn't valued Ning Zimo's "miraculous" rise in the past few years, he might not be sitting here.

Ning Zimo could see Mike Zafilovsky's impatience. Now that he had found a way to attract his attention, he could naturally turn to the topic.

"Okay, Mike, maybe I want to introduce myself to you. Or, my next plan after selling Skype. In this way, our topic can continue."

Mike Zafilovsky didn't have any expression change, he just looked on without saying a word.

Seeing him like this, Ning Zimo didn't hide anything, "In February, I submitted a formal acquisition offer to ARM in Europe, and in 2002, a team under me had already started developing a microkernel operating system."

"You want to make a mobile phone!?" Mike was suddenly moved. How could he have imagined that this young man wanted to be involved in the field of mobile phones.

but,

Why,

Want to talk to him?

"Do you want to..."

"I want to cooperate with you," Ning Zimo said with a smile on his face. "With the contacts you have accumulated in Europe, with the funds I obtained in January this year, with my control of the future direction of the mobile phone industry, with my past

Over the years, I have accumulated support for the mobile phone industry. I want to be involved in the mobile phone field."

"Haha... Ning... Although you have indeed made outstanding achievements in the Internet field, your first pot of gold is even higher than that of people your age. But have you ever thought about it? Whether it is Motorola

La, Alcatel, Ericsson, Nokia, these multinational giants, which one can you shake?"

Although Mike Zafilovsky has some admiration for Ning Zimo, how could Mike Zafilovsky, who is in the communications industry, not understand this industry?

Especially in his current position, doesn't it make Ning Zimo's plan sound like a joke?

"Ning, I want to remind you that I am a senior executive of Motorola. Do you think that as a senior executive of a multinational company in the communications industry, I am someone who can easily waver in my determination?"

"Yes, I know this," Ning Zi looked at Mike Zafilovsky silently, nodded and shook his head, "but I definitely have good reasons for you to believe that I am someone who can subvert this industry.

"
