The next day, an Rong continued to stay in New York with the team of Tian'an company for the following brief research.
Wu Tao flew to California first to deal with other affairs of his trip to the United States.
It is only a few months away from the Chinese New Year in 2002. Time is very urgent, but there are many business arrangements.
I didn't expect to meet Lenovo's negotiation team at the airport.
Last night was a carnival night for Tian'an; For Lenovo, it is another scene.
Although Wu Tao didn't know much about the situation, when he saw Liu Chuanzhi with gray hair overnight, his shock was beyond words.
losers are always in the wrong.
This is especially true in the competition in shopping malls.
On the contrary, when Liu Chuanzhi saw Wu Tao, he took the initiative to come up and stretch out his hand.
"Congratulations to President Wu and Tian'an company."
"It's a blessing for Liu." Wu Tao said politely. There was no tension and confrontation between the two sides.
When they talked, Liu Chuanzhi sighed and said: "thank President Wu for looking up to Lenovo and not winning IBM-PC business by bidding up the purchase price. However, this makes me even more curious. What kind of conditions did Tian'an company offer to win such a surprise? "
Wu Tao smiled and remained silent.
Liu Chuanzhi took the opportunity to explain: "Oh, by the way, forgot to tell me that I'm going to resign as CEO of Lenovo. Lenovo's big ship should also be handed over to a new generation to steer and sail."
Wu Tao was stunned. It seems that the impact of this acquisition is really not small. "Since President Liu wants to hear, I'll make a fool of myself."
"... in fact, the most important thing for Tianan company to win the favor of IBM is to adhere to the core development line of technology research and development."
Liu Chuanzhi was slightly stunned, and then suddenly said, "I should have thought of it. In this way, Tian'an company didn't want the brand IBM ThinkPad."
"That's right." Wu Tao nodded.
Liu Chuanzhi stretched out his hand again, quite moved and said, "Mr. Wu, thank you for setting a model for the development of China's high-tech enterprises."
Separated from Liu Chuanzhi's Lenovo negotiation team, Wu Tao is also aware of the changes in Lenovo.
It seems that the wolf nature of Tian'an company has not only opened up a sunshine Avenue for its future development, but also brought a far-reaching impact on the development of the industry.
This positive impact on the industry was unexpected when Wu Tao promised an Rong to establish Tian'an.
When the plane arrived at California airport, Wu Tao stepped down on the shuttle bus and couldn't help shrinking his neck.
The winter in California is better than that in Jinling, but it is still winter. Even the sea breeze from the west coast has a chilly force.
The huge posters at the airport made Wu Tao straighten his waist when he just got off the plane.
One side is the advertisement of lotus phone X and the other is the promotion advertisement of Facebook.
Both are their own companies, and that pride almost arises spontaneously.
Out of the airport, the all-in-one Bentley team brought by Wu Yingying has been waiting outside.
Not seen for a while, Wu Yingying is becoming more and more independent. Her graceful demeanor is that she has seen the world.
"Boss, you are welcome to inspect the work. I haven't seen you for a while. You are becoming more and more handsome. "
"Really?" Wu Tao raised his eyebrows, shook hands with Wu YingYing and said, "it seems that money makes people handsome!"
Wu Yingying asked Wu Tao to go to the driveway first: "boss, you are so humorous."
As the motorcade slowly left the airport, Wu Tao felt his newspaper and spread it out.
A bright title came into view: is the acquisition agreement between IBM and Huaxia Tianan declining or new?
The news is fast enough.
Wu Tao casually turned it over. In this full page financial times, many talked about the acquisition of IBM and Tian'an company.
However, the view of most media is still that they are not optimistic about Tian'an company. They believe that IBM, the little blue giant, sells its PC business to such a company, which is basically no different from directly cutting down layoffs.
Fortunately, even if the media talk about hype, the stock market is stable.
After the news release, IBM's stock not only did not fall, but made a faint effort in the later stage, showing signs of rise.
Wu Tao put down the newspaper and said, "Yingying, what do you think of this business acquisition?"
Wu Yingying put her legs together, lifted her hair at her temples and thought, "such a successful business acquisition can undoubtedly speed up the internationalization process of Tian'an company, enrich the product line and introduce advanced technology and management concepts."
"... but there is no reason why IBM broke its wrists and sold its well-known PC business."
"... in the future, with HP's acquisition of Compaq, Dell's globalization strategy, the penetration of notebook computer manufacturers such as Toshiba, and the continuous emergence of domestic PC companies, the profit space of the PC industry will be further squeezed."
"... aside from others, the competitive situation faced by Tian'an company in the future is not optimistic."
Wu Tao nodded and agreed, "this is not an easy way!"
Soon, the team arrived at the California branch of Apocalypse investment.
The investment company, located in the CBD area of California city, is now the largest financial company in the whole block.
Across the block, you can see the advertising banner of Apocalypse investment.
The original office pattern of one floor has also been expanded to two floors.
At this point, Wu Yingying's expansion steps are conservative. With the performance of Apocalypse investment California branch, Wu Tao will not object even if she buys a building.
However, it may be influenced by the atmosphere of many American enterprises. They prefer to rent all tables, chairs and benches rather than include them in the budget as fixed assets. And the real estate such as office buildings, needless to mention.
Under the guidance of Wu Yingying, Wu Tao walked into the company.
Two golden haired and blue eyed ocean horses at the front desk immediately put down their work and got up to nod and salute.
Wu Tao nodded and decorated his appearance with a beautiful ocean horse, which really meant a different height.
They talked as they walked. They didn't want to meet a white man with messy hair. They were being driven out by two strong security guards. While being driven away, he was still rippling his hands, leaning back on the scattered documents, rushed inside and tried to explain: "listen to me, this is a very promising touch screen technology! It was rated as one of the 100 most important new technologies in the future in 73! "
Although the man's pronunciation is a little slang, Wu Tao still hears a general idea.
Immediately stopped the other party and said, "you said the technology in your hand is touch screen technology?"
The man turned his head, "are you?"
Before Wu Tao introduced herself, Wu Yingying said, "he is the boss of Apocalypse investment."
"My name is Sam!" The man at the head of the chicken nest was overjoyed. "I brought an improved touch screen technology today. It is based on capacitive touch screen technology. Although Motorola people say it is still chicken ribs, I believe that as long as you invest in me, I can completely improve it!"
