Back To 1995: Chapter 302 burn one\'s boats

  Chapter 302 Destruction

  In the San Jose villa, when the quilt was pulled back, both Song Yang and Jenny were already dripping with sweat, and Jenny was lying in front of Song Yang.

  Song Yang rubbed Jenny's hair. During this time, Jenny has been training with a Hollywood trainer. She lost a little weight, but her figure became more prominent.

"Song, Eric has called several times. I want you to come back and call him back!" Jenny lay in front of Song Yang, drawing circles with her hair, and only then did she remember It's about Rick.

  Song Yang nodded, and looked down at Jenny, "How are you preparing, the crew of The Matrix should be almost ready!"

As one of the big production projects in Hollywood this year, hundreds of millions of dollars were spent, and a large number of Hollywood professionals voted for this project, especially the so-called "global audition" for the hero and heroine, which attracted a large number of Hollywood people to compete for it. main character.

As soon as Song Yang mentioned this, Jenny's delicate and naive face showed a sad look for a moment. Now Jenny knows that she, the second heroine of "The Matrix", is basically a vase, but after this period of time Assault performance training, Jenny was a little skeptical, this vase of hers might not be up to standard...

   "It should be," Jenny said with some guilt, "I heard that the crew has already selected a few leading actors and actresses, and I will wait for Song to decide!"

  The Wachowski brothers still know the rules of the world very well. They know who supported the "Matrix" trilogy. For the leading role of The Matrix, they have selected some candidates and are waiting for Song Yang to decide.

  He lowered his head and kissed the face of the big cream cake, and then amid Jenny's screams, Song Yang picked up the cream cake and jumped into the swimming pool together.

   It was rare to relax his nerves. Song Yang lay in the swimming pool for a long time, but the phone kept ringing. Knowing that Song Yang was back, there were many people who wanted to find him.

  Song Yang got on the phone from the swimming pool, and it was immediately reported that Alcatel's North American operations president, Mike Chigley, got on the phone, and Alcatel asked aggressively, "Song, what do you mean?"

  Song Yang opened his mouth, let Jenny stuff him with a grape, and said to Chigley vaguely, "President Chigley, I don't know what you mean."

"America Telecom's order in Asia," Chigley now experienced Lucent's frustration when America Telecom suddenly handed over the order to Alcatel before, "America Telecom handed over Asia's order to an Asian manufacturer. Before…"

   "I don't know much about these things, it may be Eiger's decision."

Song Yang pushed two five six, and directly pushed the matter away. Just when Chigley thought it was a misunderstanding, Song Yang suddenly said, "President Chigley, I want to remind you of one thing. , the previous agreement between American Telecom and Alcatel was to hand over America Telecom's telecommunications equipment orders in America to Alcatel, and the Asian market is not included in this agreement..."

   Chigley was there, and through the phone, he could hear Chigley's heavy breathing, obviously suppressing his anger.

But just when Song Yang thought that Chigley was about to get angry, he heard Chigley apologize, "Sorry Song, I lost my temper. This is indeed not within our agreement, but I think Alcatel is now with America Telecom. It is an important partner, and there should be more cooperation, not only in the American market!"

   Both Song Yang and Chigley smiled at each other, as if they had fooled the matter. As for whether it was really over, only the two sides knew in their hearts.

   "Song, do you have a new plan to buy an Alcatel mobile phone?" Chigley suddenly asked Song Yang about this.

Song Yang also did not deny that after the reorganization of Alcatel's first mobile phone, Song Yang is going to launch the world's first mobile phone that can access the Internet. If he wants to formulate a standard for mobile Internet access, he also needs the help of Alcatel, the world's largest communication equipment manufacturer. Only support.

   "President Chigley, I do have some plans. I'm afraid that at that time, I will need the support of the French Alcatel equipment manufacturer!" Song Yang said.

After hanging up the phone, Mike Chigley took a deep breath. The subordinates looked at Chigley. They knew that Chigley's character was definitely not a good one. , crushing the local American company Lucent, if Chigley has no skills, he will not be able to gain a foothold.

   This time, he was obviously fooled by American Telecom and played a word game, but Chigley didn't get angry, which made the subordinates on the side a little puzzled.

   "Now is not the time to turn against Bruno Song and America Telecom," Chigley shook his head and said, "Alcatel communication equipment needs the support of America Telecom in the American market!"

   "In the Asian market, if you turn against America Telecom because of this incident, you may lose the Asian market completely."

  Chigley can see very clearly that if America wants to compete with Lucent, it needs to win the support of telecommunications operators such as America Telecom and WorldCom.

As for the Asian market, Chigley didn't know what agreement Song Yang had reached with that side, but Chigley didn't dare to lose the big because of a small loss, because of the order of less than 100 million US dollars, he had a bad relationship with the domestic side However, if the domestic market is lost, it may be unlucky for Chigley.

  It is not Chigley's goal to be the president of North American operations of Alcatel's communications equipment. He also has a lot of ideas about the position of president, and he doesn't want to stumble on this "little matter".

  Song Yang originally wanted to go back to San Jose to rest for a few days, but someone has already approached him.

   On the American side, Ertian, the former Alcatel president who had been waiting for almost a month, was finally allowed to meet the new owner of the Alcatel mobile phone.

   With anxiety, Ertian walked into Song Yang's villa. It was not as extravagant as Ertian imagined, and he didn't dare to look at it. After being put in by Ulf, Ertian came to the study.

"sit!"

  Song Yang stretched out his hand to Ertian and sat down. Facing Song Yang, Ertian, who was in his forties, sat down cautiously, without the slightest airs.

Even if he had any thoughts at first, after being on the bench for nearly half a month, all Ertian's thoughts disappeared, and now he is left with anxiety. Now he still has the fate of the Alcatel mobile phone, all in Song Yang's thoughts between.

   "Boss, now Alcatel has two global R&D centers, 600 mobile phone R&D and design engineers, and has mobile phone sales channels in 35 regions around the world..."

Ertian explained to Song Yang all the family background of Alcatel mobile phone. In fact, he wanted to tell Song Yang that although the previous parent company of Alcatel mobile phone sold Alcatel mobile phone at a cheap price of cabbage, But the Alcatel mobile phone still has a lot of property.

  Song Yang nodded. Before the acquisition, he had already done research on the Alcatel mobile phone, otherwise Song Yang would not have taken it rashly.

"I know, I have read all about Alcatel's experience with mobile phones," Song Yang said while looking at Ertian, but the next sentence almost made Ertian jump up, "But Alcatel didn't Didn't win, did you?!"

Ertian opened his mouth and wanted to refute, but he couldn't speak. What could he say? The parent company sold it as junk. What else could he refute? As for not winning Nokia, Ertian An Geng has nothing to say, let alone Alcatel mobile phones, which mobile phone brand is now, dare to fight against Nokia.

   Facing Song Yang, Ertian felt the pressure doubled. After a long time, he heard Song Yang say again, "Alcatel mobile phone brand needs to be restructured!"

  He sighed slightly in his heart. Ertian knew that he should come, and he still had to come. After the acquisition was completed, Song Yang didn't talk to Alcatel's mobile phone for such a long time, so Ertian had expected it in his heart.

   Song Yang has no interest in knowing what Elthian's favorite thing is. The current Alcatel belongs to Song Yang. It is completely up to Song Yang to decide whether to continue the original painting or to start over.

  “I don’t care what the Alcatel mobile phone looked like before, but I want the reorganized Alcatel mobile phone to become a brand new brand!”

Song Yang looked at Ertian and said, it is obvious that the Alcatel mobile phone brand needs to be reset. This is of course a risk, and it is a big risk. This is tantamount to abandoning the original brand positioning and user groups, and then building new user groups.

If the bet is won, it will naturally be broken and established. If the bet is lost, basically everything will be lost. Whether it is the cost of acquiring the Alcatel mobile phone brand, or the production base established in Yanjing and the electronics industry base in Yangcheng, basically The kind that has become a joke all over the world, and may go down in the history books of the electronics industry.

  Looking at Ertian, Song Yang said, "I hope that the reorganized Alcatel mobile phone will be positioned as a mid-to-high-end brand, and can become the trend and leader of the mobile phone industry. Users will be proud to use the Alcatel mobile phone brand!"

   To put it bluntly, it is to build a mobile phone brand that can be equipped with a mobile phone. It must be a mid-to-high-end mobile phone brand and a mid-range brand phone. It is not impossible, but the profits are really few.

  A mobile phone brand, the easiest to enter is of course the entry-level mobile phone market, because the threshold is low, but it is not easy to upgrade and enter the mid-to-high-end mobile phone market.

  The Alcatel mobile phone brand still has certain advantages, at least it has a certain reputation. It depends on what the reorganized brand can develop.

  "The reorganized Alcatel mobile phone brand focuses on technology, and the management team has been re-established. Of course, Ertian, you are still the president of Alcatel Mobile, and this will not change!"

  Song Yang needs a person to take the helm of the mobile phone business. He doesn't expect Ertian to be very capable. It is enough to let someone who is familiar with mobile phones make the entire mobile phone business work.

Hearing Song Yang's words, Ertian didn't know whether to be thankful or sad. Fortunately, his position was saved. The sad thing was that Song Yang didn't disband the technical department, and ended up taking over the entire management of Alcatel mobile phones. , This is probably the first case in the industry. Song Yang's reputation among professional managers and Wall Street may not be much better in the future.
