Chapter 422: Unreasonable (Asking for Monthly Votes)
Today is a roadshow, a one-to-many meeting, to answer questions for potential investment institutions that are interested.
It also shows the style of a leader of a company that is about to go public.
If it were another place, Fang Zhuo would not pay attention to Di Yan, the vice president of Yingke, because she did not look like she had missed the opportunity to invest in Yike and returned to the right path. She looked more like she was following Li Xiaochao to find fault with her original "non-investment".
But even so, she should still give a convincing response, otherwise, some investors who did not have such doubts in their hearts may have doubts after hearing her words.
So, what is more convincing than hearing the president of Sony Music answer in person?
"Shh, everyone please be quiet next, I'll make two calls."
Fang Zhuo took out his mobile phone, just like a magician took out a magic wand, attracting the attention of everyone in the conference room.
Originally an ordinary listing roadshow suddenly became unique.
"Mr. Fang..."
Xu Kaiwei spoke up, feeling that something was wrong. If the call did not go through or the phone had a negative effect, then today's roadshow would be completely ruined.
Moreover, judging from the performance of Di Yan next to Li Xiaochao, this was not a double act.
He had absolute confidence that if Mr. Fang wanted to do a double act, he would definitely inform him, as he had done the previous two times!
Xu Kaiwei felt that with his position as the president of Goldman Sachs China, it would be no problem to get the roadshow back on track. It was nothing more than a few polite words, such as "It is normal for everyone to have different opinions" and "Time will soon prove it".
Fang Zhuo smiled at Xu Kaiwei. He had already found Tanaka Miu's number on his phone. Facing everyone's gaze, he solicited opinions: "Is it okay for me to do this? Isn't it rash? This is my first roadshow, and I don't really know the process."
Wu Zheng saw a familiar smile on Mr. Fang's face. At this moment, he felt like he was back in the Sina conference room, so he said, "No problem. Mr. Fang's method is very fair. Subjective opinions are always difficult to convince each other. It's easy to judge by observing."
Li Xiaochao, who was watching from the sidelines, spoke slowly: "Yes, speaking of which, I also met Mr. Stringer of Sony Music. I admire his business talent very much."
He did meet Sony's Stringer at a banquet with his father. At that time, it was his father who talked to him.
Stringer is not only the president of Sony Music, he is also the chairman and CEO of Sony America. In April this year, he became the vice chairman of Sony Global Corporation. The resources he can mobilize are quite amazing.
Xu Kaiwei heard the words of the rich man and tasted the implication - look, he has met Stringer, so he is not afraid of fakery.
"Okay, I'll call Tanaka Minoru in Japan first, so that everyone can hear how to talk to the distribution company." Fang Zhuo dialed the number, pressed the external voice, and asked while the call was not connected, "Japanese people's English accent is a bit weird, can everyone understand it?"
Many people in the conference room nodded. Hong Kong has a lot of business dealings with Japan, so they know the tone.
Soon, the call was connected.
The voice of Tanaka Minoru, president of Japan's Lexiang Electronics Company, came out.
"I'm Tanaka Minoru, Mr. Fang, hello." The Japanese voice came out earnestly.
"Oh, Mr. Tanaka, is Lexiang Electronics doing well? It hasn't closed down, right?" Fang Zhuo gave the first greeting.
Unless you are very close friends, the first greeting after answering the phone is obviously impolite, especially since Fang Zhuo's tone of voice is not very smiling.
Tanaka Minoru was not displeased, and continued with an earnest tone: "Thanks to Mr. Fang's care, LeXiang Electronics is doing very well."
"The business is very good, well, then tell me how it is good." Fang Zhuo asked the president of the Japanese company to make a brief report.
Tanaka Minoru did not hesitate. LeXiang Electronics was his own business, so the report was naturally very smooth.
Fang Zhuo took this opportunity to observe the conference room.
I don't know if this kind of open eavesdropping satisfies people's gossip psychology. Everyone in the conference room, including Li Xiaochao, Wu Zheng, Yang Lan, and Xu Kaiwei, held their breath and listened to the report of a Japanese entrepreneur silently without making a sound.
LeXiang Electronics is developing its business with Tokyo as its main base. This move of selling music players in Sony's headquarters is bound to encounter difficulties, but Tanaka Minoru firmly believes that the Internet + mp3 player is the future.
Tanaka Minoru not only reported on his work, but also talked about how he solved the difficulties with difficulty.
Such an entrepreneur spoke with sincerity and logic, almost impressing the eavesdroppers in the conference room.
However, just when Tanaka Minoru was talking about how he would solve the sales channels in other cities with a low profile, Fang Zhuo interrupted his complaint without caring and gave him a heavy blow.
"Mr. Tanaka, we Yike are considering entering the Japanese market."
With just one simple sentence, the excitement immediately turned into silence.
A few seconds later, Tanaka Minoru's voice sounded again, with a cry that could be heard: "Mr. Fang, Mr. Fang, we agreed that Yike could not enter the Japanese market!"
Fang Zhuo said lightly: "I changed my mind."
Tanaka Minoru's voice suddenly rose and then quickly fell: "Mr. Fang, we, we signed a contract, there is a contract, Mr. Fang, did we Lexiang do anything wrong?"
He didn't even dare to argue.
Fang Zhuo said in a flat tone: "There is a contract? Then compensate according to the contract, or go through legal procedures."
"Mr. Fang, you, you can't do this. I must have done something wrong. I will fly to China now. There must be room for resolution in our cooperation." Tanaka Minoru said hurriedly.
"Oh, OK."
Fang Zhuo hung up the phone regardless of what the other party wanted to say.
The conference room was silent.
This...
This is really not a rehearsal, right?
If this was a performance, the other party must be a professional actor, talking about the joy of the company's development, the shock of hearing the decision, and the humble pleading...
Just listening to this phone call, the arrogant breach of contract by Yi Ke's president makes people feel pity for Tanaka Minoru!
"Tanaka Minoru invested all his fortune to found LeXiang Electronics. The products are manufactured by our production line. With the emergence of various competing products, if they don't have our OEM, they can actually find new products."
"However, the functions of iMusic and online music are unique to us. Another Apple will not send its own products to Japan to sell under a different brand. Without our cooperation, Tanaka Minoru will soon go bankrupt."
"This is the power of our company's moat, and it is also the threshold that other competitors must consider."
Fang Zhuo briefly explained the origin, and finally said to Di Yan who questioned him: "This is a distribution company, and it is a channel whose life and death is decided by us."
Di Yan was speechless.
The channel is decided by the hand, and a few words are about life and death.
This time, the arrogant and unreasonable breacher of contract became a listed president who is well versed in business methods. Everyone suddenly had a new understanding of this young man.
There is also a two-in-one in the evening. Two-in-one means two chapters. Wake up, they are all charged by the number of words.
