Chapter 807: Let's talk about it later

Fang Mingyuan is right. In the Chinese mainland market, during the transition from analog to digital mobile phones in the mid-1990s, Ericsson was indeed the company with the largest market share of imported mobile phones. Although it was in this position

It didn't last long before it was pulled down by Motorola, and then Nokia occupied the top spot, pushing it to third place.

Although Ericsson is an old-timer in the telecommunications industry and was once the leader, in the late 1990s, it still showed some shortcomings common to large companies - being satisfied with the status quo, not focusing on sales, and not paying attention to innovation.

And the introduction of new technologies, product design is always the same without breakthroughs, no attention is paid to after-sales service and the maintenance and construction of brand image, etc.

At the beginning of the 2000s, the quality problems of Ericsson's star mobile phone T28 model were widely exposed, and Ericsson's crisis public relations level at the time could only be said to be incredibly poor. The result was the Ericsson mobile phone

In China, it has become a typical representative of mobile phone quality problems! Ericsson has become a typical example of a negative company that never admits its mistakes!

As a result, Ericsson's mobile phone sales have declined significantly in China! Siemens has squeezed it out of the top three sales groups!

And this is not all part of the nightmare. Mobile phone operating income only accounts for less than one-third of Ericsson's total business. Its main business is the production of mobile communication base stations and system equipment. Since Ericsson is responsible for optical fiber communications and wireless in various countries around the world,

The development expectations of the communications industry were too high, resulting in a large increase in the company's production capacity. The sudden collapse of the Nasdaq stock market caused Ericsson to experience its first loss in half a century.

In order to reverse the decline, Ericsson had to become the first company among the world's well-known brands to outsource its own mobile phone manufacturing business. However, even so, it seems that it is still not enough to give Ericsson a break. Therefore, it is in trouble.

Ericsson is in close contact with Sony and wants both parties to jointly invest and establish a joint venture.

Ericsson and Sony thought that they were doing things very secretly and that no one should be able to detect them, but they were exposed by Fang Mingyuan in person. How could they not make Taira Keijiro feel disturbed? However, the explanation given by Fang Mingyuan was quite surprising.

It is reasonable to say that Fang Mingyuan's business vision has always been highly respected. Ericsson, as the former main rival of the Fang family's mobile phone company, has been defeated in the past two years, but in the business world, it is also a company that has made a comeback.

There are a lot of people there, so it's not surprising that they pay more attention.

However, Heikejiro's heart aroused again. At this time, why did Fang Mingyuan bring up this matter?

Sony itself also has a mobile phone business, but due to its late entry into the market, although the sales of its products in the global market are okay, there is still a big gap compared with mobile phone giants such as Nokia. It just so happens that Ericsson has

The market share of Ericsson has dropped significantly, giving rise to the idea of ​​withdrawing from the mobile phone market. As Fang Mingyuan said, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. After all, Ericsson was once a giant in the world's mobile phone industry and held many key technologies in its hands. Sony hopes

Through Ericsson's expertise in telecommunications and Sony's complementary advantages in consumer electronics, a strong brand has been created in the field of mobile communications.

As for Sony's proposal, Ericsson, which had originally intended to withdraw from the mobile phone market, naturally welcomed it. First of all, they had already intended to withdraw from the mobile phone market, and it would be great to cooperate with Sony to make another success. If they succeeded, it would be great.

Even if it fails, Sony will share the losses. After all, Ericsson wants to get rid of the mobile phone business, and it cannot be sold just by selling it.

Secondly, after all, Sony is a world-renowned electronic product manufacturer with rich design and entertainment audio-visual resources and a huge consumer group. Ericsson also hopes to take this opportunity to make a comeback in the mobile phone market.

After all, Ericsson is not willing to abandon an industry whose global annual output value may reach trillions of dollars in the future. So the two parties hit it off.

Fang Mingyuan had reached this point in his words, and Heike Jiro also understood that although this person was young, he was not someone who was easy to fool, so he simply recognized him.

Sony Ericsson, also known as Sony Ericsson for short, was a company that was once brilliant in the mobile phone market and even once had the ambition to challenge the market positions of Nokia and Samsung Group. Of course Fang Mingyuan was impressed by it.

"If your company hopes to obtain the exclusive rights to the "Onimusha" series of games for PS models, it is not impossible, but I must have enough reasons to convince the shareholders of Gamestation. Besides, there are also companies like Sega Co., Ltd.

Companies and partners like Microsoft must also be persuaded. To be honest, now I don’t know how to prevent them from getting angry. I wonder if your company can give me some tips.

?" Fang Mingyuan smiled and continued the tea course for Taira Keijiro, and he brought the topic back.

Heike Jiro couldn't help but shudder. Fang Mingyuan's attitude and words were very gentle, and he still had a smile on his face, but he felt like he was being targeted by a ferocious beast.

"Alas..." Heikejiro sighed secretly. Sony has broken into the field of home game consoles. Now it seems that I really don't know whether it is right or wrong. Although, the PS series consoles have never been able to successfully log in.

Although it has always been suppressed by Sega Corporation, everyone in Sony has to admit that the field of home game consoles has been the sector with the fastest growth and high profit margins of Sony in recent years.

In fact, among the younger generation, its influence even exceeds other businesses of Sony. Many times, when young people talk about Sony, they no longer say that it is a company that produces Walkmans, not that it produces TVs.

It is a company that produces PS or PS2 game consoles! However, it is precisely because Sony has entered this field that an internationally renowned large company like Sony has to lower its head sometimes.

Negotiate politely with a company like Gamestation that is new but has grasped the key factors in the development of the industry.

"Fang Jun, isn't it Fang Jun who has decided the matter with your words?" Heike Jiro chuckled. In today's Gamestation company, among these shareholders, who else dares or can influence Fang Mingyuan's opinions?

?Whether it is the share of shares or the influence on the company, Fang Mingyuan can now be said to have reached a height in Gamestation that no one else can match. If it weren't for these other shareholders who refused to let go of the company's shares, and Fang Mingyuan still had a relationship with them

Cooperation in all aspects, in fact, Fang Mingyuan could have been easily kicked out of the company long ago.

"** is not good after all, and I cannot harm the legitimate rights and interests of other shareholders of the company because of my personal preferences. Otherwise, problems will eventually arise over time." Fang Mingyuan said, "However, President Ping Jing

There is no need to rush to answer. After all, "Onimusha" has not been officially launched yet. Why don't we wait a moment and wait until the results of "Onmusha" come out, and then we will discuss this matter. By that time, your company will have enough mentality.

I’m prepared, I’m willing to pay for it, and I feel confident in taking it.”

Heike Jiro was slightly startled. Fang Mingyuan meant something different in his words, but he was full of confidence in the sales results of "Onimusha".

In May, before the World Cup is about to come to Japan, the atmosphere of the World Cup can be seen everywhere. As one of the first countries in Asia to successfully host the World Cup, Japan has given sufficient attention to the World Cup. Not only did Japan just take over as Prime Minister in March this year,

Prime Minister Koizumi and the younger brother of Emperor Akihito of Japan, Komotonomiya and his wife, have decided to attend the opening ceremony of the World Cup in Seoul, South Korea, and will also invite the President of South Korea to come to Japan to attend the closing ceremony.

Not only because the Japanese attach great importance to football, they even have a century-old plan to revitalize Japanese football! It is also because the World Cup is a good opportunity for Japan to expand its influence in the world and revitalize its economy at the same time!

According to statistics from authoritative organizations, Spain, the host country of the 1982 World Cup, generated more than 6 billion US dollars in tourism revenue during the World Cup. Since then, Spain's tourism industry has continued to develop rapidly. By the time of the Barcelona Olympics ten years later,

Tourism revenue reached 20 billion US dollars!

During the last World Cup in France, France received more than 8 billion francs in direct economic benefits and created nearly 280,000 jobs. The economic growth rate that year increased to 3%, which was France's greatest success.

The highest economic growth rate in the 1990s.

It can be seen that hosting the World Cup will bring extremely generous benefits to the host country. Even before the World Cup begins, Japanese media have calculated that the joint effects of the World Cup and various industries will provide benefits to the Japanese economy.

Bringing benefits that may reach tens of billions of dollars! In addition, due to the depreciation of the Japanese yen during this period, the Japanese organizing committee originally thought that the funds would be red. Not only did this not happen, but there was a large surplus.

Moreover, Japan’s economy has shown some signs of recovery since March this year. This makes the hosting of the World Cup considered as the best opportunity for revival for many Japanese whose country’s economic development has been stagnant! (Unfinished)
