Heiyun Group has a lot of staff in Japan. If there is any trouble, Bao Zixuan will know immediately, and must know. As a well-known Japanese company, Sony is also a major competitor; when Nakasone Yasuhiro inspected, there were commercial spies from the Black Cloud Group beside him.
As the principal, I am very pleased to learn that Jiro Takakura has developed the Sony office inventory management system. At least it proves that his students are very powerful, and it is also of great benefit to the promotion of the school's popularity. But Bao Zixuan is not only the president of a university, but also an entrepreneur.
Software is mainly the cost of early research and development, and the cost of copying and maintenance in the later stage can be ignored. As long as it is developed and recognized by the market and customers, you can wait at home to count the money. This is also why every time the Black Cloud Group is in a tight financial position, it will be transferred from the software company; because Bao Zixuan knows that the revenue capacity of the software company is absolutely reassuring.
But now that the Japanese have developed their own office software, black cloud products, including American software companies, are somewhat difficult to enter. The Japanese are very xenophobic, especially when Takakura Jiro mentions network security, he will pay special attention to it.
Although the Prime Minister's official residence order is not very profitable, its influence is unparalleled. Therefore, after receiving the first external order, many companies began to visit Sony. The popularity of Takakura Jiro in Japan has skyrocketed, and it is not an exaggeration to describe him as a household name.
While the people lamented Bao Zixuan's vicious eyes, they also praised Akio Morita. It was he who sent his sons to study in Xiangjiang to get the rough jade of Takakura Jiro to be carved; he just graduated and was entrusted with important tasks. Everything is showing people what the decision-making ability of an entrepreneur is.
At this time, Akio Morita's status in Sony had already surpassed that of Ibuka. This shows that Sony's second entrepreneurial success, at least in terms of computer software, Sony is already well-deserved first in Japan.
At this moment, Bao Zixuan was not idle. After spending three days with his wife, he entered the working state. Although he is about to become a father, for Bao Zixuan, the development of the enterprise cannot be compromised.
In the office of the chairman of the Black Cloud Group, Leonard Posak submitted an analysis report. Bao Zixuan took it politely, browsed it quickly, and said, "How about the students' graduation works, did you disappoint your teacher?"
Seeing that Bao Zixuan still seemed to be nothing, Bosak really admired it. The strength of his competitors can no longer be underestimated, and the boss is still calm and comfortable; it is estimated that he may not be able to practice this kind of tolerance until he dies.
Writing such excellent software is actually considered a graduation project; I don't know if it is blind arrogance or overconfidence! However, the man in front of him does have this strength. After all, there is still some gap between Sony's software and Heiyun. But it was enough to shock Bosak. After all, it took less than a year for Sony to develop the product. In the future, in the competition, it is still unknown whether to catch up with or surpass the black cloud.
Leonard Posac said with a serious face: "I'm not as optimistic as you are. Church apprentices and starved masters should be your Chinese proverbs. Although I never want this kind of thing to happen, but some things don't Nothing can stop it."
"Jiro Takakura's software already has 80% of the functions of similar products of Heiyun. At most, we are superior in compression algorithm, and there is no obvious advantage in other aspects. If you think that this is a student's graduation work, then it can definitely reach the doctoral level. ."
"Without making changes, we will lose the Japanese office software market."
The Japanese market is a very serious word. With the rapid economic development in recent years, the Japanese have entered the buying, buying, and buying mode in the world. No company dares to ignore their terrifying spending power.
Leonard Posacsu mainly works at Yulin Institute of Technology, but Bao Zixuan wants to train him well. In the previous life, this kid was kicked out of the company by John Chambers and other board members because he didn't know how to be flexible in business. At present, Heiyun does not lack programmers, but there are very few comprehensive talents who know R&D, management and integration.
A few must be trained, and Leonard Posack is one of them. I was reluctant to leave the lab, but I knew the boss's original intention, so I didn't get too entangled. And the wife is pregnant, and it's not like that always in the lab.
Bao Zixuan: "Science and technology will never end. There is innovation in the field of electronics and computers, whether it is hardware or software. The Japanese market itself is very difficult to enter, and these Japanese have never trusted outsiders."
"And we have to make arrangements in advance for many things. In business, we must not eat alone. When a company reaches a certain scale, it must take the initiative to cultivate competitors. The US Department of Commerce is not easy to mess with, and they cannot be allowed to seize any leverage at present."
"As long as the most advanced technology is always in our hands, there is nothing to fear! Sony's support for Takakura Jiro is far less than my support for you. And I believe that your teacher will never be defeated. to my students."
Actually, I didn't want to talk so much with this scholar-type talent, but since it is absolutely necessary to reuse it, it is safer to explain it.
Leonard Posack did not expect that his boss would consider the US Department of Commerce; he only heard about it before, but now he realizes that it is not as simple as imagined to do well in a business. It's not that your products are good, your service is good, and your customers are satisfied. Everything will be fine; you need to consider various factors and coordinate the interests of everyone.
What Bao Zixuan didn't know was that it was because of his words; the former founder of Cisco gave up the idea of starting a business, it was considered an unintentional intervention!
Leonard Posac: "The technical advantage is of course on our side, and we will continue to work hard in the future. But the market is only so big, and Japan is an existence that cannot be ignored; I am really unwilling to watch it like this."
In fact, Bao Zixuan is preparing for the Plaza Agreement. According to the memory of the previous life, this agreement is about to be signed. But that was based on the fact that major Japanese companies slaughtered the world, and this life was because of the emergence of the Black Cloud Group. This leaves Japanese companies with little advantage in many aspects, and some are even pushed to the ground and rubbed.
Even so, the revenue of Japanese companies is not much small. And because Bao Zixuan made a large-scale investment in Japan in the past, and even asked his partners and friends to go there, the Japanese property market and stock market were even crazier than in the previous life. Now the stock market and property market have reached the level of the end of 1985 in the previous life, which shows how crazy it is.
Previously, the Japanese believed that they were controlled by others in terms of software, so with the success of the development of the Sony office inventory management system by Takakura Jiro. It shows that Japan has reached the world's advanced level in the field of software. At most, it will be worse than the Black Cloud Group and the United States, and it is definitely the top three in the world.
And the developers are still a group of young people, which means that there will be infinite hope in the future. UU reading At this time, the Japanese have pinned their hopes in the software industry on Jiro Takakura. After all, this kid has proved himself with practical actions.
Things turned out as Bao Zixuan expected, after the success of the office software. Other software has been developed, and investment in computer hardware has also increased to some extent. In short, Japan is currently thriving.
The Japanese are gearing up, and of course the Americans will find out. Then their attention will be diverted from the Black Cloud Group, at least not as tight as before; this is the result that the richest man Bao wants.
So much investment in Japan, if the Plaza Accord is not signed. Given the Japanese nature of urine, I certainly don't want the yen to appreciate on a large scale. On the surface, it looks like an increase in wealth, but it is very unfavorable for exports. Japan is just an island country. If major companies do not have the advantage of exporting, how can they feed their workers?
Therefore, the Plaza Accord is a document that must be signed, and Bao Zixuan cannot afford to take this risk. If the Plaza Accord is not signed, neither the Black Cloud Group nor the Blackstone Fund's investment in Japan can be described as heavy losses.
Looking at the high-spirited Takakura Jiro in the newspaper, and of course the ambitious Morita Akio. Bao Zixuan was finally relieved, and improving the strength of Japanese software was the last thing he wanted to see. But to destroy it, you must make the other party go crazy first. It seems that the effect is not bad, at least the Japanese have firmly believed that they can also become the world's first in the field of software.
Combined with the advantages of other original products, Japanese companies will certainly have a bright future. As for the Plaza Accord, it is not unacceptable.
Before doing business, you must give some sweetness, otherwise, with the shrewdness of the Japanese, they will always find various reasons for rejection.
