Chapter 631: Ants Move and Eat Fat Meat

"I'm sorry, sir, what is your position at Hong Kong Island Wind Company?"

Li Ye is carefully observing John Chambers! But he was suddenly interrupted by Wang Lie.

He looked at Wang Lie and found that although the face of the head of Wang An Company remained calm, the impatience in his eyes was already very strong.

Li Ye said calmly: "Hello Mr. Wang, I am an intern at Hong Kong Island Style, but I know the situation in the mainland very well, so I think joint research and development and joint production are a good opportunity for both of us."

Wang Lie stared at Li Ye for two seconds and suddenly laughed.

He laughed for a few seconds, then shook his head and said, "This is the best joke I've heard this year. Your idea is very funny."

There was silence.

Even John Chambers, who didn't like Li Ye very much, was full of surprise, and then lowered his head to hide his expression.

No matter how much you don't believe in Hong Kong rumors, they came here for the final negotiation based on the previously negotiated intentions.

As soon as I arrived today, you called me over for negotiation. You were already very rude, but now you say something "ridiculous". Can you really take on the responsibility of being the helmsman of Wang An Company?

In fact, Wang An's decision to let his son Wang Lie take over as president of the company met with strong opposition within the company.

Because in Dengtao, unlike the Confucian cultural circle, which emphasizes the inheritance of father and son, they prefer to hire excellent managers to manage the family industry.

But Wang An is not. In his subconscious mind, the company belongs to my family. He needs to have absolute control over the company, so much so that he chooses to appoint his own family members in many important positions.

Even a talented person like John Chambers is only a mediocre and small role like a regional manager.

Although Chambers was later promoted to the position of president of the Lighthouse Region, he had to complete the task of laying off 4,000 people first. Didn't this make him take the blame?

Therefore, Wang An insisted on going his own way and forcibly put his son at the helm of the company. This was the biggest mistake in his life and the most fatal mistake.

For example, now, Li Ye obviously extended an olive branch to him, but he thought it was "ridiculous".

Whether you say he lacks ability or lacks luck, in short, he missed the last chance to save Wang An Company.

Pei Wencong didn't even look at Li Ye's face, so he said sternly: "Mr. Wang Lie, is this your attitude? Are you sure this is your company's attitude towards us?"

Wang Lie's heart trembled, but he still insisted: "Mr. Pei, I am not completely denying the cooperation intention we reached in the early stage.

But I think we should start with agent sales, gradually deepen our understanding, gradually build trust, and then gradually discuss the possibility of joint research and development and joint production within three to five years."

"There's no need for that anymore. It doesn't matter whether Wang An Company will still be there in five years!"

Li Ye stood up directly before Wang Lie finished speaking, lifted his feet and walked out of the conference room.

If you are rude to me, I will be even more rude.

Another intern, Wen Leyu, played her "translation" role very competently and translated Li Ye's words into English.

It's just that Wen Leyu was very angry, so he translated "It doesn't matter whether Wang An Company will still be around in five years" into "It doesn't matter whether Wang An Company will go bankrupt in five years."

The young couple's behavior shocked both Wang Lie and John Chambers.

But they haven't gotten angry yet! I saw Pei Wencong, Luo Runbo and others starting to pack their things without saying a word, and followed Li Ye and Wen Leyu to leave without even saying a courtesy greeting.

What is this for? Is this really the rhythm of a feud?

By this time, no matter how slow their reaction was, Wang Lie and John Chambers realized that something was wrong with the "intern".

"Chambers, what's going on? You've been in Asia for so long, how can these people be so rude?"

John Chambers frowned tightly and did not let go for a long time, but because of the boss's face, he finally explained uncertainly:

"Although flower growers have begun to open up, they are still closed compared to other areas. I have only come into contact with one person who is said to be the second generation of the mainland. Now I feel that that person is not more like the second generation than the two young people just now."

"."

Wang Lie's tutoring was based on standard Confucian culture, so he naturally understood the principle of "one more friend opens a new path, one more enemy breaks down a bridge".

So he said to John Chambers: "Repair relations with them as soon as possible, and make some concessions in terms of interests if necessary."

Chambers was almost furious.

[What the hell do you want me to fix? You have offended someone and want me to repair the relationship? 】

. . . . . . .

According to Beacon's philosophy, there is no hatred that cannot be resolved with benefits, but this is not the case with Li Ye at all.

Li Ye and others left Wang An's company and on the way back to the hotel by car, Pei Wencong said with shame: "I'm sorry, Mr. Li, this is my dereliction of duty. I was not prepared for a detailed investigation. I don't know Wang Lie's attitude towards us." Completely different from Mr. Wang An."

Li Ye breathed out, also a little disappointed.

Mr. Wang An is a legendary figure, and he was later received by the top leaders of the mainland, so Li Ye came here with great hope to seek cooperation.

Li Ye's original intention was to establish a computer company in Hong Kong Island to avoid Western technology restrictions as much as possible. After all, computers in the 1980s were definitely high-end industries, and Western companies could not inject the most advanced technology into mainland companies.

But Hong Kong Island is different, especially before 1997, there were not so many restrictions on electronics. For example, the switch equipment that Huawei just started to represent was produced by companies in Hong Kong Island.

By then, Pengcheng Fengyu will be separated from Hong Kong Island by only a river. Li Ye will organize people to go there in turn to exchange and learn. With the research spirit of Ni Dashen's group, what kind of cow gall and dog treasure can't they dig out?

But now it's good. People look down on me. Do I have to lick my ass?

Li Ye doesn't know what kind of person Mr. Wang An, who founded Wang An Company, is, but his son is really a very competent gravedigger, digging his own pit and burying himself.

"Don't waste time on Wang An," Li Ye said coldly, "Do you still want to eat pigs with hair without Zhang the butcher? Go contact other manufacturers!"

There are at least 800 IT manufacturers around Boston, but not many survived in the end, and only a few are famous.

"Okay, Mr. Li, we have also contacted several other computer companies. What do you think of Microsoft?"

"Microsoft?"

Li Ye looked at Pei Wencong: "Why do you ask this question?"

Pei Wencong replied: "Mr. Li, although Microsoft is a small company, they have a good relationship with IBM, and they will be listed in a month and a half. If we get a part of the equity..."

"You have to be careful with Microsoft's equity."

Li Ye immediately corrected: "We can buy Microsoft's stock, but we must buy it in a dispersed manner to avoid being targeted by the CIA in the future."

Although Microsoft is still a small company with a net asset of only two million US dollars, it has just reached the listing threshold of Nasdaq and its stock price is only 15 cents when it is listed.

But in the future it will be a behemoth, and any major shareholder will be a shining target.

Let alone holding 5% of the shares, which requires disclosure of identity, even if it is 1%, there is no telling how many people will covet it.

Li Ye does not think that a great company like Microsoft can easily allow him to participate in the shares,

because the financial investment of the old Americans is much more developed than that of Asia. Since Silicon Valley and Boston can develop, they cannot do without speculators waving money like Li Ye.

If you really block their way to wealth, it will be a vengeance that kills their parents.

But the net assets are only two million, and the rate of return is 4,500 times. This kind of business is worth fighting for!

So you must be careful and careful, diversify your investments from multiple channels such as Europe, Asia, and the United States, and eat this piece of fat meat first.
