Chapter 495 Who Uses Who
Dongying, Sony Building Headquarters, Ginza, Konan Street, Minato-ku, Tokyo.
This 1966-storey office building, built in 13, is the headquarters of Sony Corporation.
Dongying Sony Corporation, formerly known as Tokyo Communication Industry Co., Ltd., was founded in 1946.
It was jointly established by the famous Akio Morita and Ibuka at that time.
Sony's main business is a large-scale comprehensive company that spans electronics, games, finance, and entertainment.
In the transliteration of Nanwan Province and Hongkang in Dalong Country, Sony Corporation is also known as: Sony Corporation.
In Dongying Country, Sony Corporation, like Maehara Co., Ltd., has a pivotal influence.
Maehara Co., Ltd. has been going downhill in the past two years. The behemoth with net assets of 100 billion US dollars has shrunk rapidly, and only less than half of it is left.
Sony, which was originally only a quarter of its size, has rapidly narrowed the gap between the two parties after several years of development.
Under the ebb and flow, it is only a matter of time before Sony becomes No.1 in Japan.
Compared with the prosperous Sony Corporation, Maehara Co., Ltd. is like an old man at sunset, with a hint of death in its decline.
The work attitude of the two employees is very telling.
Sony Corporation is like a high-speed machine, methodical and efficient.
The staff of Maehara Co., Ltd. are procrastinated and overstaffed.
From the first second of going to work, everyone in Sony is busy with enthusiasm.
The thirteenth floor of the headquarters building is different from other departments.
This layer is silent and silent.
On the entire floor, there is only one department - the president's office.
The elevator door slid open silently, and a blond western man in a well-fitting suit came out of the elevator with a briefcase in his hand.
His name is Edward Fox, and he is the representative of Twentieth Century Fox and Sony in Japan.
The sound of "click, click" leather shoes echoed crisply in the corridor, seeming to carry a strange rhythm.
This is what Edward learned from the boss Hopkinson.
The young people of the entire Fox family almost regarded Hopkinson as an idol.
The sound of leather shoes stopped at the door of the only office, and Edward glanced at the sign on the lintel: President's Office.
Well, the sign is actually written in Japanese, which Edward couldn't read at all.
However, he firmly remembered what Mr. Hopkinson said: Even if you don't understand anything, you can't show it, and let others feel that you already have the wisdom in your hands.
Once you've done this, you're already halfway there.
Edward took every word of Mr. Hopkinson by heart.
"Dong dong dong..." The door panel was knocked rhythmically, and after a while, there were three more.
A calm and majestic voice sounded in the room, saying in Japanese: "Please come in!"
Edward understood this sentence.
He took a deep breath, and with the most enthusiastic smile on his face, he slowly opened the door and walked in.
"Mr. Nakano Shiliang, hello, I am the plenipotentiary representative sent by Twentieth Century Fox, and my name is Edward Fox!"
Shiliang Nakano, who was sitting on a chair reviewing documents, looked up in astonishment, and then with a warm smile on his face, he stood up and shook hands with Edward:
"Hello Mr. Edward!"
Edward, who is close to 1 meters tall, looked down at Nakano Zhiliang, who had just reached his chest, with a sense of superiority in his heart.
Dongying people, not only are you not tall enough, but you also need to rely on our Hollywood capital in other aspects.
The executive president of Sony Corporation Nakano Zhiliang in front of him is less than 1.7 meters tall, and his bowed legs make him look a little shorter than his actual height.
With the traditional Rendan beard of Japanese men, the skin on his face is rosy and shiny, and his eyes are full of radiance.
If it weren't for the few sparse white strands in the short hair, it wouldn't be obvious at all. He is a middle-aged man who is nearly fifty years old.
Edward looked at Nakano Zhiliang for a moment, reached out to shake hands with him reservedly, and immediately let go.
For Fox, whose market value is close to 180 billion US dollars, Sony, whose market value is less than 50 billion, is a bad brother.
Sensing the arrogance of the special representative, Nakano Zhiliang flashed a trace of anger in his eyes.
The arrogance and rudeness of M countrymen are well known all over the world.
"Mr. Nakano, I was appointed by Mr. Hopkinson, the president of [-]th Century Fox, to come to meet with you and deal with Maehara Co., Ltd."
Nakano Zhiliang suppressed his anger, now is not the time to turn against [-]th Century Fox.
After all, Maehara Co., Ltd. is a behemoth that has dominated Japan for decades, and a lean camel is bigger than a horse.
Sony has gained the upper hand in the past few years, but it will take time to completely defeat the Maehara family.
Nakano Zhiliang couldn't afford to wait.
This guy has wrist and more ambition.
What he wanted was not only to replace the Maehara family and become the leader of the Japanese entertainment industry, but also to further occupy the Asian market.
Dalong Kingdom, South Korea, Dongying, Siam, Annan, and Malaysia should all be places where Sony exported its culture and plundered its wealth.
Unable to eat Maehara Co., Ltd. in a short time, Nakano Zhiliang thought of looking for foreign aid.
Through his relationship, he found the ambitious [-]th Century Fox who also wanted to open up the Asian market.
The two sides share similar tastes and hit it off.
The two parties agreed to jointly deal with Maehara Co., Ltd.
After defeating the opponent, the two companies split the vacated Dongying market equally.
As for other markets in Asia, each depends on its own ability.
Needing others, coupled with being in the honeymoon period, Nakano Shiliang could only ignore Edward's arrogance and rudeness.
When the Maehara Co., Ltd. is defeated, it is time for me to free up my hands to deal with you Westerners.
Asia, only Asia for Asians!
Nakano Shiliang also knew it in his heart.
Twentieth Century Fox came to seek cooperation only because it was in an advantageous position in the struggle.
If the Maehara family turned against the wind, these realistic M countrymen would run faster than anyone else.
It can be said that the two parties have their own ghosts and maintain the superficial cooperation.
"President Nakano, Mr. Hopkinson and the board of directors of [-]th Century Fox have agreed to the contract you handed over, and now we are partners."
Nakano Shiliang was not surprised by this answer.
The Fox family contributed $35 billion to finance Sony's fight with Maehara.
After the matter is completed, the Fox family can share 50.00% of the shares of the former original family.
This kind of profitable business is the favorite method of the beautiful Chinese people.
An imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of Nakano Shiro's mouth.
You want to use Sony to open up the Asian market, and it happens that I also need your funds. It is really hard to say who will use who.
PS: The plot of Dongying will be very long. The company that appears in it is different from the real one. It is Blue Star!
