Return to 78: Why are all the Americans panicking about doing scientific research?

The price war lasted for several months, with the US government taking sides.

Require island nation companies to comply with fair business principles established by the United States.

Send people to threaten Sony Group privately.

It is best for island countries to stop the price war in moderation.

Otherwise, the United States will not only reduce the share of imports from Japanese goods, but will also sanction those Japanese companies that are causing trouble.

Faced with this situation, Sony Group immediately changed its tactics and arranged personnel to negotiate with Longguo.

We tried to regain the attributes of high quality and low price of goods by investing in and building factories in Longguo and cooperating in business.

In addition, Sony Group arranged Koji Kobayashi, general manager of Toshiba Group, to act as an envoy to contact Lin Kaifeng.

Through the exchange of interests, the business cooperation between Northern Machinery Company and Best Buy Group was cut off.

Kobayashi Koji went to Northern Machinery Company twice and was turned away both times.

Every time I come here, Lin Kaifeng is definitely not in the company.

No longer going on business trips, but heading abroad for business inspections.

Kobayashi Koji didn't think there was such a coincidence in the world, and Lin Kaifeng might have deliberately avoided him.

When he came for the third time, Lin Kaifeng still didn't see him.

This time, Lin Kaifeng neither went to Hong Kong nor went overseas, he stayed in the local area.

"Translator Hu, come with me for a walk. I'm in a very bad mood right now. If you continue to stay in the room, I will definitely go crazy."

After a burst of anger for no reason, Kobayashi Koji urgently needed to go out and breathe some fresh air.

Thinking of how Lin Kaifeng had rejected him three times in a row, Kobayashi Koji wanted to just walk away.

Calm down, Kobayashi Koji can't do this.

Whether the island country's home appliances can regain a foothold in the U.S. market and defeat their biggest competitor in the U.S., Best Buy, depends on Lin Kaifeng and Northern Machinery Company.

Toshiba Group is not only one of the largest home appliance companies in the island country, but also an important member of the home appliance alliance.

In response to the increasingly serious double standard policy of the United States, Sony Group was the first to stand up and call on the island country's powerful home appliance groups to form an alliance to deal with the economic suppression of the United States together.

Once the cooperation between Northern Machine Company and Best Buy Group is broken, Best Buy Group will no longer be able to obtain high-quality and low-priced home appliances.

The island nation will immediately seize the opportunity and launch a full-scale counterattack.

Hu Changan, who was sent by the local foreign affairs department to serve as Kobayashi Koji's translator, immediately led the way.

Introduce some interesting places in the local area to help Koji Kobayashi relieve his anger.

"How is this going?"

Not long after the two left the foreign-related hotel, Kobayashi Koji was surprised to find that the road ahead was blocked.

Hu Changan said: "These people are all citizens waiting in line to buy goods. As I just told you, Comrade Lin Kaifeng has been busy with commercial transformation recently. His company has invested in a department store in our city, transformed the department store into a department store building, and adjusted the environment inside."

Hu Changle translated word by word what Lin Kaifeng was busy with recently.

"Open supply?!"

As Hu Changan talked about Lin Kaifeng's initiative to make concessions, the prices of color televisions, which represented luxury goods, were lowered across the board. The prices of two models of televisions were benchmarked against the prices of black-and-white televisions exported by the island country to Dragon Country.

The price of a 14-inch color TV is less than one thousand yuan.

Kobayashi Koji's face changed drastically and his heartbeat began to accelerate.

Dense beads of sweat covered his forehead in an instant.

Hu Changle asked immediately, "Mr. Xiaolin, are you feeling unwell? Do you need to go to the hospital?"

"Lin Kaifeng, this bastard, what on earth does he want to do!!!"

Kobayashi Koji cursed, pushed away Hu Changan who was blocking his way, and walked forward quickly.

Following the team, Kobayashi Koji arrived at the department store.

Looking forward carefully, Kobayashi Koji took a deep breath.

Looking at the first floor of the department store from here, it is crowded and bustling.

Television sets were carried out one after another by local residents.

The faces of the citizens holding their televisions were filled with joy from the bottom of their hearts.

After watching for a while, Kobayashi Koji glanced at his watch, took out a piece of paper and a pen from his suit pocket, and recorded in detail the number of televisions purchased by local people and the approximate number of customers inside.

In a full hour, more than 200 large and small color TVs were taken out by citizens.

Simultaneously.

The local people coming out of there, even if they are not holding color TVs, must be carrying large and small bags.

"Mr. Kobayashi, what are you doing..."

"do not speak!"

Kobayashi Koji raised his hand to interrupt Hu Changan and said in a deep voice: "Now I am going to go in for further observation. You go in with me. Do not reveal my identity, and do not speak to me in the island language in front of your local citizens. Hu Changan

Not understanding what Kobayashi Koji was trying to do, Hu Changan could only obediently follow Kobayashi Koji and line up.

After waiting in line for an unknown amount of time, the two finally walked into the department store.

As he entered, Kobayashi Koji's expression became increasingly grim.

The first floor is a special area for household appliances. In addition to two models of color TVs, the shelves also have radios, tape recorders, and electric fans.

The second, third and fourth floors were also crowded.

There were a large number of people and the environment seemed orderly.

There are staff members to provide guidance every few steps.

"Nani! Dragon Country now has a relatively complete commercial complex..."

More than an hour later, Kobayashi Koji walked out of the department store with a gloomy face and without saying a word.

Lin Kaifeng lowered the price of color televisions to the level of black-and-white televisions imported from the island countries. It is now clear what he is trying to do.

By proactively reducing prices, Northern Machinery Company will unleash its influence in the home appliance market.

The Island National Power Alliance has reached a cooperation intention with the Longguo Special Economic Zone.

Next year, major companies will invest large sums of money to build home appliance factories in the Special Administrative Region.

Reduce the production cost of electrical appliances through Longguo’s low-cost labor.

While selling abroad, we are also trying to seize the market in Longguo.

In the past, the scale of household appliances exported by the island country to Dragon Country was not large and the variety was not many.

It is just a minor matter.

Once it has established a firm foothold in Longguo, Island Electric will be able to defeat Longguo companies that also produce home appliances with a devastating force.

But now.

The situation has changed subtly.

Once Northern Machinery Company changes its development focus from simply exporting home appliances to the United States to exporting and supplying domestically at the same time.

The idea that island companies will dominate the market is likely to be shattered.

At the same time, Koji Kobayashi became worried about the department store.

Lin Kaifeng introduced a modern commercial retail model by renovating the department store.

In the field of retail department stores, the island nation also has strong development potential.

Department stores of all sizes are scattered all over the island.

Five years ago, the island's department store association and supply companies reached a new purchasing agreement.

Carry out joint development, joint research and joint production.
