Chapter 1033: recidivist

The smile instantly condensed on Mitarai's face, his mouth opened in astonishment, and he asked incredulously: "Why?"
The smile on Tan Zhenhua's face remained unchanged, but the words he uttered were extremely cold: "Because many people in the league disagree."
"But, why is this?" Mitarai screamed out this sentence, the expression on his face was a bit distorted and hideous, and at the same time he had already thrown aside all manners.
"Mr. Mitarai, do I have to make it so clear?" Tan Zhenhua shrugged his shoulders, the expression on his face did not change at all: "Look, all the products Canon can provide are already available in our "Midoor" alliance. With ready-made cooperative enterprises, and all products are more than one-office automation equipment has HP, Xerox and Epson, any of their products will not be inferior to yours; digital cameras have Sony, Nikon and Kodak; oh; , And semiconductor manufacturing equipment, one of your superior products, we also have Nikon, the head supplier that occupies the world’s number one lithography machine market, Toshiba is our core partner, and some of you Yes, the other equipment manufacturer, Mitarai, who helped us greatly in the construction of "Huaxin Microelectronics", if you stood in my position, what choice would you make?"
The first code of conduct of any organization must first safeguard the interests of the organization. This is simply a universal truth. How could the Mitarai Shio who is accustomed to the storms not understand? So after Tan Zhenhua gave out his reasons, he immediately made him speechless and unable to refute—Canon, with many existing companies in the "Midoor" alliance, has a market and product line intersection, which is a very clear competitor relationship. How can these companies welcome Canon to join? They must wish that Canon would be excluded.
Shio Mitarai can even imagine the names of the most determined companies that oppose Canon’s entry into the alliance: HP, Xerox, Sony, Nikon... Well, this is a very high degree of overlap with China’s currently announced finalists. List.
Tan Zhenhua looked at Shifu Mitarai who had fallen into a state of temporary absence, shook his head gently and said, "Mitarai, things are a little bit different from what you imagined."
Mr. Mitarai who had come back a little after a while, almost subconsciously asked, "What's the difference? Zhenhua-san, please tell me the truth."
Even he himself didn't realize that the tone of his speech at this moment actually brought a little pleading meaning.
"Our "Midoor" alliance is closer in nature to a loose organization similar to the industry standardization alliance. If there is any difference, I am afraid that there is an additional "matrix" laboratory in our alliance. It’s just the core, but there is actually no binding force on the competition among enterprises in the alliance. For example, in our alliance, there are as many as 20 personal computer manufacturers alone, and there are fierce competition between them. Competition, and there is a trend of further increase-Mitarai-kun, can you understand what I mean?"
Shifu Mitarai nodded silently, but the doubts in his heart were even worse, he couldn't help asking: "But this can't explain your previous words."
Tan Zhenhua nodded and said: "Mitarai, don’t worry, let me finish talking-Canon’s situation is a bit different. Although the "Midoor" alliance is a loose organization that allows reasonable competition among members, If an enterprise has been regarded as a competitor by the vast majority of the members of the alliance, and found an opportunity to defeat or even eliminate it, the alliance does not mind mobilizing all its forces and firmly seizes this opportunity. We are still an organization after all, and the first instinct of any organization in the world is to safeguard the interests of this organization, right?"
The blood on Mitarai’s face faded completely in an instant. He didn’t even hear what Tan Zhenhua said behind him. His mind was just constantly rumbling with Tan Zhenhua’s sentence about
competitors, defeat and destroy, mobilize all "Power", an idea emerged uncontrollably in my heart: I understand that some companies in the "Midoor" alliance not only regard Canon as a competitor, but also find an opportunity to completely eliminate this opponent. Driven by, they united and wanted to defeat or even completely obliterate Canon in one fell swoop!
But why do they think they can do it?
In the last fiscal year of 1985, Canon’s operating income reached a record of 6.25 billion U.S. dollars, ranking 156th among the global Fortune 500 companies. Among them, the U.S. market that he led his team contributed to 2.2 billion U.S. dollars. It accounted for more than 35%, and for the first time in history, it surpassed the domestic turnover in the country of Japan. Of course, Shio Mitarai clearly remembers these figures that he is proud of.
He really couldn't imagine what means his opponent could use to bring down such a huge multinational company.
Well, we can only say that Shio Mitarai doesn't know much about Tan Er's glorious record in the past. As for how to toss a big company, he is a habitual offender and has a lot of history...
But it doesn't matter, he will soon be able to learn the methods of the Second Young Master.
Because he had an extra document handed over by Tan Zhenhua.
"this is?"
"This is a record of the ongoing negotiations between the Ministry of International Trade and Industry of your country and the U.S. government on trade negotiations involving office automation equipment, semiconductor chips and chip manufacturing equipment in Japan. I don’t think you will ask me where I got this. For documents, I just need to make one point in particular: because of the relationship between time and the efficiency of information transmission, the one you have is a record 3 days ago. Now negotiations are still going on, and your country’s Minister of Industry and Trade Kiichi Miyazawa is still working on it. With the final effort, I hope to get more relaxed conditions for your country. However, judging from the negotiation process described in this record, the situation may not be optimistic. Mitarai-kun, I know you must also be concerned about this important issue. Negotiations, I guess you will be interested in the above."
His concern for this matter caused Shio Mitarai to ignore the weird little details of how Tan Zhenhua carried such an important document with him. Instead, he began to study the document seriously-and after reading the record of the negotiation process. , He finally understood why those people had the confidence to deal with Canon.
If the content of this document is true, and if Miyazawa agrees to accept the conditions set by the Americans in the end, then Canon will face the most difficult and weakest moment since its inception!
And that, of course, is the best moment for the opponent to take advantage of the momentum and launch a fatal blow to Canon!
