How did I become a god

Chapter 577 Visit

Huawei has a total of three rotating CEOs: Xu Zhijun, Guo Ping, and Hu Houkun.And each of them served as the vice chairman of the board of directors, and had been in charge of various major business departments (BG) of Huawei.Make outstanding contributions to Huawei's development.

(Note: Huawei only upgraded to the rotating chairman system in March 2018. At the beginning of November 3, it was still a rotating CEO system. The previous fallacies have been corrected.)
The term of the rotating CEO is six months.Mr. Xu happened to be on duty now.According to Huawei's system, he is now the top person in charge of Huawei's daily management.For Jing Gao's itinerary today, it is very appropriate for him to receive him at the first stop.

"Mr. Jing, welcome to Huawei." Xu Zhijun was 51 years old at the time, and had served as president of Huawei's wireless product line, president of strategy and marketing, president of products and solutions, and director of the product investment review committee.

His age is the best age among corporate executives.With a pair of glasses, the hair is a little bald.

"Mr. Xu, thank you very much for your reception." Jing Gao shook hands with him with a smile, and sat down in the office after exchanging greetings.

Jing Gao and his party consisted of more than a dozen people, and not everyone was in this office, only An Xiaoqian, Dong Youwei and other six people.

Communication takes the form of question and answer.A total of 10 minutes, almost a cup of coffee time.Huawei's CEO time is also very precious.

This is also because Jing Gao's identity is quite special.A big man in charge of a nearly trillion-level enterprise group and group took the initiative to visit. It was called a visit on the surface, but it was actually a study.This must be given some treatment and specifications.

In fact, Huawei receives a large number of visitors and visitors every year.There's media, there's suppliers, and so on.

It is said that in the early years of the 21st century, when Wall Street was in charge of the world, executives from Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley visited Huawei to lobby for Huawei's listing.As a result, Mr. Ren only sent staff from the Public Relations Department to receive them.

Wall Street was furious immediately, knowing that their treatment from the government was better than this.Go back and black Huawei.The top investment banks want to hack you, nothing more than those methods.First, call the wind and rain in the capital market, express disfavor for you, collectively denounce, and sing bad news.Create a very bad public opinion environment.

Second, rating agencies make arrangements.Say your XX is not good, adjust the rating to BBB.and so on.This thing has a lot of influence on the issuance of bonds, especially the issuance of corporate bonds in overseas markets.It happened that many people took this set at the time.

But the problem is, Huawei and its partners make a fortune together, who the hell cares about your report or bad-mouthing!Those who are willing to deal with Huawei to make money are always willing.Those who don’t want to make money, those who want to be fooled by Wall Street, then you can continue.

This is the same as the three major rating agencies: Standard & Poor's, Moody's, and Fitch lowered our sovereign debt rating not long ago.As a result, we immediately issued US dollar bonds on Hong Kong Island, which were snapped up by investors immediately.Immediately face the three major rating agencies.

To introduce Huawei's history, development process, and current strategy, all these things will be introduced to Jing Gao by the personnel of public relations affairs.Therefore, at the beginning, Jing Gao directly communicated his doubts and opinions.

"Mr. Xu, I admire Huawei's breakthrough in the 5g standard. Although the Coolpad mobile phone is still very weak, Coolpad is willing to support Huawei's 5g standard. I hope Huawei can give us a discount on the patent licensing fee. "

5g标准之争在2016年的三次3GPP会议上已经落下帷幕。最终在2016年11月14日-18日的雷诺会议上，华为拿下了控制信道标准。

However, the focus of the entire meeting was whether to use Huawei's standard (Polar) or Qualcomm's standard (LDPC) in the data channel, and Huawei lost.The final vote count was 55:31.

However, there are Samsung, Intel, and Ericsson in the Qualcomm camp, and the global share is very high.The end result is the use of the Qualcomm standard (LDPC) in the short codes of the data channel.

Jing Taka was very concerned about these three votes.Because anyone who runs a business understands that first-rate companies set standards, second-rate companies make culture, and third-rate companies make products.

In this confrontation, in the second meeting of 3GPP, Lenovo voted against Huawei in the data channel standard.It hopes that both the long code and the short code of the data channel adopt the Qualcomm standard (LDPC).This was the complete opposite of all Chinese companies at the time.

Of course, there is a saying that Lenovo voted for Huawei in the third Renault meeting.But Huawei still lost.The difference in market share ratio is a bit large.Success is not judged by the number of votes.

Jing Gao doesn't know what will happen next, but he can predict it. As long as this matter is exposed, Lenovo will be in big trouble.

He generally understands Lenovo's decision.It seems that Lenovo has accumulated some technology in the field of LDPC.In addition, Huawei's decision to enter the field of personal notebook computers is digging into Lenovo's roots.Lenovo must have some reaction!
However, from a personal point of view, Jing Gao does not want to forgive Lenovo at all.Before this kind of principled question of right and wrong, we must first ask ourselves whether it is a comprador, the conscience of the US emperor, or a Chinese enterprise?

Having answered the question, how to vote, is it hard to decide?Moreover, even from the perspective of patent fees, they must invest in Huawei!Huawei's patent fees are much cheaper than Qualcomm's.

To be honest, Huawei is not a perfect company.After reading all these Huawei materials, Jing Gao had a rough idea.Huawei's wolf culture is very vicious.Take the mobile phone business as an example. Although domestic mobile phone manufacturers overwhelmingly support Huawei standards, if one day the global mobile phone market is weak and there is a need to compete fiercely in the domestic mobile phone market, Huawei will remember the sentiment of this vote, and Don't you want to kill your domestic friends and businessmen?
It's impossible to think about it with your butt!Wolves want to eat meat.

However, the problem with Lenovo is here.Why can Western companies support Qualcomm in a coordinated manner, and why can other domestic mobile phone manufacturers support Huawei overwhelmingly at this time, but Lenovo can't do it?
What a difference in life!

How to compete behind closed doors, even to the death, is the business of Chinese companies.The meat rotted in the pot.How much do you mean by voting for Qualcomm?
Xu Zhijun laughed and said, "Boss Jing, you are embarrassing me! Huawei's philosophy, in terms of patent fees, we are based on the principle of less collection and win-win cooperation. Personally, I am willing to give Coolpad the patent fee. Discount. However, for specific matters, please go and confront our colleagues.”

Jing Gao laughed, "The word confrontation is used accurately." He was also joking.This is how it is understood.Coolpad pays Huawei a mobile phone patent fee. From his point of view, if he asks for a discount, it may be 2000 million US dollars.

This money is equivalent to his net worth, a drop in the bucket.He can joke about it.But for businesses, it's not a big deal.Therefore, from Xu Zhijun's point of view, he may not agree to the first meeting between the two.Although Huawei is a private company, it has no controlling shareholder.No one can go rattling the cost of a business like this.

And the so-called "confrontation" is negotiation.If the shipment volume of Coolpad mobile phones is large, it is estimated that there will be some discounts.

Jing Gao smiled and said, "I still have a question I want to talk to Mr. Xu. Coolpad mobile phone plans to enter the field of OEM. I wonder if Huawei is interested in cooperating with Coolpad?"

Xu Zhijun said neatly: "We will send people to investigate. If Coolpad's foundry can meet Huawei's needs, we are willing to expand our global supply chain to ensure the safety of the mobile phone business."

Inoko nodded with a smile.

He was actually a little unhappy.Because Xu Zhijun's words are clichés.You know, when he talked about cooperation with Xu Jiayin, Li Yanhong, and Wang Shitou, it was settled in a few words.It doesn't matter if it's a business of [-] million or more than a billion.

However, he suppressed his emotions.He can understand the operation mode of this kind of private enterprise with dispersed equity and collective decision-making.Or, this is also a style of Huawei.

An Xiaoqian asked a few more management questions.Arrived in 10 minutes, the two sides shook hands and said goodbye in a friendly atmosphere.Next, the employees of Huawei's public relations and government affairs department took them to visit Huawei's history.

That is their well-known corporate culture at home and abroad.
