Chapter 288 Boss Liu Comes to the Door
Chapter 288 Boss Liu Comes to the Door
"They used to say we were cowards and wouldn't let them in, but now they can't do it either."
Everyone in the conference room smiled knowingly. This once again proved America's weakness; although they were still powerful, their glory days were numbered...
He's nothing but a paper tiger.
The Minister of Industry and Information Technology then added: "Secretary Zhao is right, Transsion's core industrial chain has been fully operational."
Panel, main control solution... we can provide everything domestically.
The faster the US compiles its sanctions list, the more panicked they are. Now, the question we should be discussing is how to retaliate.
The other leaders all nodded in agreement.
Transsion has taken root in Guangzhou and has also supported thousands of companies in the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain. It is a key enterprise supported by Guangzhou City and even Guangnan Province.
Now that we've reached the level of competition at the national level, we must have sufficient confidence.
The Director-General of the Department of International Organizations and Conferences of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs maintained his consistently tough style and offered his opinion.
"After all, we have never fought such a rich battle before, nor have we had such an experience. This is all new, so we must fight hard."
We've already issued our statement, so now it's time to take action: initiate the dispute settlement mechanism at the WTO and sue the United States for trade bullying.
And don't take the document we issued lightly. We should directly conduct compliance reviews of relevant American technology companies operating in China and implement reciprocal countermeasures.
We can't let them think we're just going to passively react.
As soon as he finished speaking, many people nodded.
This was already a fairly strong stance, and many people present felt that it was forceful enough.
After all, the impact of the economic crisis has not completely subsided. If Obama resorts to drastic measures to stimulate the economy, it would be a losing proposition for China...
At this moment, the Minister of Commerce coughed lightly twice, and everyone's attention turned to him.
He has a rather calm demeanor, and speaks slowly and deliberately, exuding an old-fashioned and steady aura.
Almost everyone subconsciously categorizes it as a moderate conservative.
"I understand the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' position; their attitude is very clear, and their direction is correct."
That's a good plan.
The hardliner director from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs nodded in agreement; there was no room for compromise on such a major issue, especially given the technological advantage.
How could such a thing be?
The tone in the meeting room had been firmly set: a strong counterattack.
Just as everyone else was about to speak, the Minister of Commerce added another sentence.
"But personally, I think... this plan is still too conservative."
Everyone looked at him, especially the hardliner deputy director, who looked incredulous.
"minister……"
He hesitated for a long time before finally speaking: "I've already taken reciprocal countermeasures and filed a WTO investigation against American companies. Is that considered conservative?"
Several people in the meeting room couldn't help but twitch their lips slightly.
The minister remained serious, not at all like he was joking.
"You're saying that if you throw a punch, I'll throw a punch back, which is a passive, equal exchange."
My conservative approach is like this…”
The other "conservatives" in the meeting room nodded in agreement. The minister said a few words, and the secretary next to him immediately stepped forward and offered a solution.
The other conservatives applauded immediately after reading the proposal.
"This plan is better, let's go with this one."
"That's what you call being safe."
"That's right, the safest approach is not to get into a street fight with him, but to directly overturn the table he's happy to eat at."
The Party Secretary of Yangcheng City couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Old leader, still the same old style."
Everyone thinks you're a conservative, but you're actually the most well-hidden attacking force.
There are three options on his screen.
Firstly, since Transsion's industrial chain is completely independent and controllable, we will not only not back down, but will instead expand our presence in North America to circumvent regulations and continue to seize market share.
By directly compiling a list of America's core interests in China, precise countermeasures will be launched against the agricultural products, energy, and high-end components that the United States relies on most heavily for, hitting the most vulnerable spots.
Secondly, with the leadership from above, the Transsion model will be replicated and promoted, supporting a group of high-tech enterprises to go global and directly impact the foundation of the United States' global market.
The leader presiding over the meeting shook his head helplessly: "I've figured it out today. There are no doves here, only the steady ones who seem more composed but are ruthless in their actions."
.........
Following Transsion's announcement that Motorola was withdrawing from the American market, there were more voices of persuasion in Transsion's comment section.
"After Transsion withdrew from the American market, there's no need for it to remain here now."
After all, without this major business, the brand value of the grain depot would be greatly diminished, so there's no need to keep it.
Transsion still refuses to sell, which makes many people curious as to why Transsion is so determined to hold onto Motorola.
After all, with its stepson and biological son, Huawei, as its backer, Motorola seems to be able to do whatever it wants.
According to Lazy Sheep's assistant's analysis, there must be other plans involved.
The answer soon became clear.
After the news broke, several technology companies expressed interest in the Motorola brand.
For example, Lu Mingyuan, after the Lu family's downfall, his tech company launched two or three mobile phones, hoping to recoup losses through telecom operators, but alas...
They couldn't get their purchases made through headquarters, so they could only rely on some of their former subordinates, but they couldn't sell anything, and over time...
So Lu Mingyuan set his sights on Motorola and wanted to pool his savings to buy one...
But his strength is still no match for LX.
The boss directly used his connections to call Shen Fei.
"Mr. Shen, I am Mr. Liu, the owner of LX."
Shen Fei smiled knowingly when he received the call; the great nemesis had finally arrived.
But only one of the two factors has come together, so now is not the time.
"Mr. Shen, I've heard about the Motorola thing. LX is very interested and would like to talk to you about it."
As expected, the fish had been starving for a long time; they bit the hook very quickly.
"Mr. Liu, I'm very sorry. Motorola isn't for sale?"
"Not selling? Then what do you want to do with it?"
Mr. Liu over there was clearly surprised. After all, Motorola was a hot potato right now, and for a normal person, the best course of action would be to get rid of it as soon as possible...
But Shen Fei...
"Keep it!"
Shen Fei's words were full of sincerity.
"Our Chinese market is huge. Motorola sold quite a lot in China last year, and the European market is doing well too!"
There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone, as if they were considering a solution...
"Mr. Shen, you already have the Transsion brand in China."
How do we differentiate between the Motorola and Transsion brands? Are we going to let them compete with each other?
This is not a good thing. Take my advice and sell it as soon as possible.
This would be good for both Transsion and Motorola, and wouldn't you like to hear my offer?
However, Boss Liu on the other end of the phone had already tried to appeal to Shen Fei's emotions. Seeing that Shen Fei didn't say anything, he directly gave him a number, believing that Shen Fei would definitely agree.
After all, for a banned brand to sell at this price, he has already done more than enough!
"Isn't this a great deal that we can offer?"
