So the next question is, should we build it ourselves or let others build it for us? Wu Hao asked as he looked at everyone. Do we build it ourselves? Everyone couldn't help but shook their heads. If they didn't have a construction company, how could they build it themselves.
So the best way is to let others build it for them. But in this case, the cost of the entire project will also increase.
Zou Xiaodong looked at the others, and then spoke first: "Didn't you say before that we are a technology company, so there is no need to be like a certain company that mixes everything, intervenes in everything, and becomes a grocery store.
So, I think it’s better to [ ] just leave it to others to help us build it. It just so happened that our new headquarters was completed, and the old director and the first group of people also had a place to use. "
After hearing Zou Xiaodong's words, everyone laughed. Dong Yiming often said that after completing this project, he would retire with great merit, but he didn't expect that he would be unable to leave now.
Wu Hao laughed and scolded directly: "Yes, it seems that Old Dong's early retirement plan is going to go to waste again."
He is not yet fifty years old this year. Why retire? He should still use his remaining energy. Having experienced the entire construction process of the new headquarters, he is familiar with this aspect, so it is appropriate for him to be responsible for it. Zhang Jun said with a smile.
Everyone couldn't help but nodded when they heard Zhang Jun's words. Indeed, Dong Yiming is undoubtedly the best candidate for this project.
Seeing that everyone agreed, Wu Hao immediately nodded and said: "In that case, I will go and talk to the old director. First, I will listen to his views on this project, and then ask him about his wishes."
If you want to say it, he will definitely be willing. How old is he now? He must not be willing to just give up. Zou Xiaodong said.
Okay, I'll talk to him personally. Wu Hao nodded, and then looked at Tong Juan: "It is true that I am not suitable to arrange too heavy work for you now, otherwise it would be too unkind. But there are some things that you must be responsible for. You have to make good arrangements in this aspect, and you can’t focus on one thing and lose the other.”
Don't worry, work is work, life is life, I've weighed it all. Tong Juan responded neatly.
That's okay, I'll leave all the overseas affairs to you. Wu Hao nodded and looked at her and said: "You know the situation of the company this year. Not only does it have to move, but it also has to carry out several projects at the same time. I really don't have many manpower to give you. So in this regard, you have to find a way by yourself. .”
Understand, I won’t speak to you unless absolutely necessary. Tong Juan nodded and said: "But you also have to allow me to recruit relevant personnel overseas independently to cope with our growing overseas market."
Of course, I will let the human resources department cooperate with you.
Wu Hao nodded and said: "However, as our influence grows, especially with several major projects and close cooperation with the military, I am afraid that the United States and the West will focus their experience to deal with us this year.
So you have to be mentally prepared for this. "
"Don't worry, Europe and the United States no longer have the final say in today's world. And the stronger the company is, the better we can cope with it.
In fact, the company's related cooperation projects with the military are no longer a secret overseas, including some weapons and equipment from Baosteel last year. It's just that the West has not yet found a suitable reason to specifically target us. "Tong Juan said to everyone.
The reason is baseless. Isn’t that what Western countries do? What is national security is a frame, what needs to be bumped into. They want to deal with us, they don't need a reason. Zou Xiaodong sneered.
Tong Juan nodded and smiled: "You don't need a reason, but you need an excuse, otherwise how can you stop Youyou from talking.
To put it bluntly, it is still profit.
In addition to continuing to stick to the European market, we are also rapidly expanding in other regional markets, with rapid progress and fruitful results. Even if there is a problem in Europe, it will not affect our markets in other regions too much.
Moreover, European countries are not united and have various problems. Now we have to pay a lot of taxes to various countries every year. If we are banned, it means that this lot of taxes will be wasted.
This may be acceptable to big countries, but not necessarily to small countries.
Especially for some countries with relatively tight financial conditions, they absolutely do not have the courage and determination.
As for the big countries in Western Europe, they are not monolithic at home. We use some reputable local agents. These agents are backed by many consortiums and forces and are complex. With them standing in front of us, we can breathe a little easier. Of course, we are also prepared for the worst outcome. "
As long as you have this confidence. Wu Hao smiled and said: "However, we can't take it lightly, and we can't completely trust these people. We still need to take precautions.
Especially our two major overseas competitors, they have the ability to control Wall Street and even the United States and related countries.
We must always be alert to them and prevent them, otherwise we may suffer big losses. "
Tong Juan nodded and her expression became serious: "You are right, Guo Guo and S Star have been really restless recently and have been making various little moves frequently.
Our main confrontation with fruits is still in the European and domestic markets. Although we dominate the domestic market, our strength in fruit production cannot be underestimated.
Especially since Fruit has been in business for so many years and has a large group of loyal fans and users, it is still difficult to conquer and absorb it in a short while, and can only be eaten away slowly.
As for the European market, although the influence of fruits is relatively large, it is also relatively limited, and Europeans don’t seem to buy it. On the contrary, S Star is doing well in Europe and has become our biggest competitor in Europe.
Similarly in Southeast Asia, our fight with Star S is also very fierce. Although we occupy almost 40% of the Southeast Asian market with our product performance advantages, S-Star still occupies nearly 30% of the market with its years of operation and brand influence.
The remaining 30% is shared by other brands, such as Hwei, Corn, Blue Green Factory, and some local brands.
What I am more worried about is South Asia. Our relationship with Yindu is relatively tense, which also makes Yindu become more and more strict on our products.
There is even news that India will issue relevant orders to prohibit the sale of our products. We even have to shut down our servers in Yindu.
As a result, I'm afraid our market there may be completely paralyzed. "
Wu Hao and everyone couldn't help but look solemn after hearing this. This is indeed a thorny problem, and there is no solution yet.
