518. The Invisible Battle

"colon, here is the situation about the mainland company. Please check it out." The well-trained assistant staff brought up a thick document and placed it in front of the middle-aged man.

Colon is the name within the company. In Hong Kong Island, an international port that is more than ten or even decades ahead of the mainland, whether it is a professional manager who is in his or her life, is not too strange. This trend will spread to large and small companies in first-tier cities in mainland China in the future, especially foreign companies and multinational companies. They use an English nickname to call each other internally, which is very common to the novel chapter.

The middle-aged man, the investment director of the Investment Affairs Department of PCCW Yingke, was originally named Chen Kelun. So, based on the habit of Hong Kong people, his colleagues around him took the last two words of his name and called it in English colon.

"Let's put it here, by the way, let the project team send two people to pay attention to Tengxin as much as possible. Although the amount of this investment is not large, and it can be said that it will almost never see the impact on the company's future, we still cannot take it lightly. Do you know? It is no longer a question of whether the investment can proceed smoothly, but it is about our reputation as a PCCW. Being snatched away by an unknown mainland company will cause senior management to question our abilities." Chen Kelun explained very seriously. Although in his heart, he did not think that Yangyi Culture could pose any threat to him, but be careful in everything. This is a professional manager, especially the most important quality of an investment power manager like him. This old man who has worked for PCCW for more than ten years can have a resume with no background and no advantage over other colleagues of the same level. However, he can still hold a firm position in the position of the head of the investment department, relying on his extremely cautious personality.

"I understand." After the assistant nodded respectfully, he stepped out, leaving a space for him to think.

Did Yangyi Culture notice that after learning about their investment intentions in PCCW, or did it have such plans long before the company expressed its investment intentions? Chen Kelun didn't know, but this did not prevent him from facing his opponents.

Although fighting in the business world is a very common situation, you will never understand what kind of mask your opponent is wearing and where his real purpose is pointed, he still feels uncomfortable when he is challenged so closely in person. Of course, it also arouses his fighting spirit. Or it is a hope that after seeing his opponent fail, he realizes how ridiculous his previous behavior was facing a giant like Telecom Yang Ke.

However, the art of war tells you that you know your enemy and your own will never be defeated. Before Liu Kelun completely obtained the investment rights in Tengxin, he will definitely do all kinds of skills. Moreover, when PCCW decided to invest in the mainland market, he had developed a good intelligence system. In addition to some emerging companies in the industry in Shenzhen and Yangcheng, they also have a large amount of consulting information about political and business figures such as the Magic City and Beijing, so that the company's various targeted investment behaviors will be more targeted and not appear too blind.

"Yangyi Culture... the book publishing industry? It's really interesting. It's rare to see companies of this nature. They will have a precedent for investment interest in a new industry that has almost no intersection with them. Well, I just experienced a policy blow last year? This is what the mainland is like. Problems that cannot be solved in the market always seek out ways through other ways. It is a bad habit that people can't stand." Chen Kelun shook his head and looked at the information in front of him and talked to himself. Just like a traditional Hong Kong islander, he always has habitual prejudice towards the various situations in the mainland. Although this prejudice will not make him look down on his opponents, it will obviously not be a pleasant thing if he is known by his mainland partners who have worked with him.

However, next, he seemed to have found something extraordinary in these documents, and his eyes that were not very concerned about him became more interested. This man who made a decision could change the fate of many companies and many people. After knocking on the desk, he picked up the latest report. This is the situation they just collected yesterday after receiving the headquarters order. It was about the various cooperation agreements reached by Yangyi Culture and the Magic City Government at the meeting held before the New Year.

"The nearly 20,000 meters of land in Yangpu District are just used to build new headquarters and server center projects? So in this way, they are indeed ambitious to show their strengths in the Internet? So now, we really can't say that they are cross-border investment, but they only start to do it after they are prepared..."

After reading this report, Chen Kelun pressed the call bell in front of his desk again, asked his assistant to come, and then ordered his decision.

"Yes, I understand. So who do you need to draw this new investment project team?" The assistant lady asked respectfully, which was obviously the greatest affirmation of Chen Kelun's ability.

"Let Addison decide. Now his group is parallel to the original investment group's rights, and he is responsible to me at the same time. After the personnel are transferred, you can let him come and see me." Chen Kelun smiled. Because of the high-intensity work, the corners of his eyes that had crow's feet faintly showed, and a trace of glittering that did not belong to him is blooming.

On the morning of the fourth day, Yang Yi was waiting for the information collected by Xu Pengxiang, but when the phone rang and he connected, he found that this was a strange number he had never seen before.

"Hey, who do you want to find?" In this era, there are few cases of harassment or missed numbers on mobile phones. After all, the overall number of mobile phone users is not as many as that of later generations, which has reduced the occurrence of the previous situation to a certain extent.

After hearing his opening remarks, the other end of the phone was a firm and powerful Mandarin with a clear southern accent: "Hello, is it Mr. Yang from Yangyi Culture? That's right, I am Madison, the project specialist of PCCW Investment Affairs Department. You can call me Addison. My intention to make this call is because PCW has a strong interest in your upcoming Internet search engine project. If possible, I hope to have a chance to meet and discuss it in detail."

PCCW?

This Hong Kong Island company that competes with him for Tengxun shares actually called him directly? I have to say that Yang Yi was really surprised. He was surprised at the smooth information of the other party, and was surprised that the other party had just come to him directly. It was not because of the investment matters of Tengxun, but because he wanted to attack Yangyi Network in turn!

However, the other party's approach is also in line with the usual style of a large company.

After hesitating for a moment, Yang Yi smiled and shook his head, "Sorry, we are not very interested in foreign venture capital. At least the existing profitability of Yangyi Culture can fully support Yangyi Network, that is, the development needs of Internet search engine projects. Therefore, I can only say I am sorry for PCCWEI here."

"I also know this. Yangyi Culture's ability to make self-produce. It can be said that it is incredible for any company in the traditional cultural industry. But I think Mr. Yang, you may be underestimating the degree of demand for funds in the Internet industry. According to your mainland, investing in the Internet is equivalent to burning money. And are you really so confident that you can guarantee that after your Internet development projects are launched, you will be able to support the project progress yourself?" The voice on the phone is not offensive. But it has a sense of superiority unique to large companies, which is not a big problem: "In fact, even if you meet us, there will be no trouble for you and your company. On the contrary, maybe after meeting us, we will reach some understanding or even cooperation intentions because of the consensus on certain issues?"

I have to say that Madison has a very good tone. If someone else looks at it, he will definitely not think that the two companies have already launched a series of actions to target and prevent each other under the water because they are attracted by the same investment target.

"Okay, I must say that you have touched me a little. After all, not everyone can say no to PCCW. So, the specific meeting time and location will be decided by you. I think you also know that we are completely unfamiliar with the place here and do not know where to negotiate." After thinking for a while, Yang Yi finally agreed to Madison's meeting request. He was not interested in the other party's investment, but wanted to see if he could find out whether he could use some of the words and information revealed by the other party to find out what further preparations he had in investing inquiry.

After the two agreed on the time and place, Yang Yi hung up the phone and began to ponder what possible consequences this triangle dispute might have in the end.

Perhaps the other party is really interested in Internet search engine projects, so he wants to convince himself to accept their investment, or he may want to use other conditions as threatening or exchanging conditions to make himself give up this investment. However, no matter what the situation is, as long as the other party takes action, he can in turn infer or even find out the determination of PCCWC in investing in investment and their investment price bottom line through the other party's series of actions.

After making this decision, Yang Yi called Qiu Yuan and Xu Pengxiang respectively and told them about the situation they encountered.

Both of them have much better experience in business than young people, especially Xu Pengxiang, who knows much more about disputes in some industries and various open and secret guns, so after telling him what he just now, he can also give Yang Yi some good suggestions on related aspects.
