The Japanese are extremely contradictory in treating foreign investment. On the one hand, Japan lacks resources to establish a country, which is simply technology and capital. Of course, they hope that the more foreign investment, the better. But on the other hand, the Japanese are very sensitive and closed, and they react very fiercely to accepting foreign leadership and being occupied by foreigners. Even its American fathers have to use swords, guns and politics to cut off their losses. The result of playing with the economy is "the Japanese can say 'no'."

Especially if they are surpassed by foreigners in terms of high technology, especially the Chinese who have always looked down upon, their islanders will be in trouble, and Zhou Shuo may be in a mess.

If there is a casing for disguise, it is also a good idea.

Tokyo, Roppongi View and Restaurant.

Komaki Kami is a typical middle-aged Japanese man with a half-bald head. As long as he sits at the table and drinks a little Japanese soju, he will immediately feel happy.

Junbo Oda earnestly filled the wine cup in front of him, nodded and bowed: "Ko Musang, this is my partner, Zhou Shuojun from China."

"Taiwanese? Hong Kong people?" Xiao Muganji picked up the wine glass, took a sip of it happily, and asked with a hint of eyes.

Zhou Shuo adjusted his kneeling posture, and he was inevitably not used to this kind of sitting method.

"Chinese, I come from Bohai Province in mainland China."

"Oh, mainlander." Xiao Mugan nodded lukewarmly.

He turned to Oda Juno and asked, "Oda, have you brought what I want?"

Juno Oda nodded, took out an envelope from his arms and pushed it over to him. Komaki Kasuki opened the envelope, and a pile of Natsume Soseki's avatars were exposed. He nodded with satisfaction, put Natsume Soseki back, put the envelope in his pocket, and then took out a folder from his carry-on bag and patted it on the table.

"This is the information of other investors who are currently interested in taking over DB. I will read it here. I will take it away after reading it."

Zhou Shuo and Oda Juno looked at each other, nodded, picked up the folder and looked through it.

The equity structure of DB company is relatively simple. The founder Hiroshi Aura owns 65% of the shares, and the remaining 35% of the shares belongs to Sakura Bank under the control of Mitsui Consortium. Hiroshi Aura owns many companies, and DB is just one of them, which makes him tend to sell all DB companies with poor profitability.

However, DB company itself has many former employees of Sakura Bank, so it hopes to retain a certain influence on DB to take care of these middle and senior executives who have many relationship networks in Sakura Bank.

This is also one of the reasons why it is often difficult for Japanese companies to make drastic reforms. Once there is a slight move, it will involve not only the company, but also many affiliated companies and investors.

This time, only 65% ​​of the shares of Kawahiro's name and 15% of the shares of Sakura Bank. If a Japanese person comes to cooperate with Juno Oda, of course there is no need to worry about being excluded. But if it is a Chinese investor, the 40% plan for each person to sell shares is absolutely unacceptable.

By then, the middle-level manager will be Japanese, and the Japanese holdings in the board of directors will be 60%. Zhou Shuo can almost certainly foresee that he will not have any benefits in this joint venture.

"Hiri Software Company is also interested in DB!" Oda Juno shouted in dismay.

"Ri Li acquired Toyota's IT consulting service provider?" Zhou Shuo also said in surprise: "Why?"

"Komu-kun, what's going on?" asked Juno Oda.

Xiaomu Ganjiu poured himself into drinking: "This is a high-level secret of the company, so I can't tell you."

Juno Oda shook his head in frustration and said, "Zhou Sang, Rili Software Company is not something we can compete with. I think it's better to give up."

Zhou Shuo remained silent. Rili Software is a software company under Rili Group. Rili Group is the second largest manufacturing company in Japan after Toyota. What exactly did they like DB Software Company for?

DB is a software company that provides IT consulting for Toyota of Mitsui Consortium, while Rili Software is a subsidiary of Rili Group of Nissan Consortium. What clues can bring these two giants together?

He shook his head and said, "Ri Li's purpose is not yet clear, and it would be a little too timid to surrender without fighting."

Juno Oda said seriously: "Zhou Jun, you are a Chinese, maybe you don't understand what it means in our six major Japanese consortiums. Although Rili Software is just a subsidiary of Rili Group, it can be considered a member of Nissan consortium no matter what. Although DB company has 35% of the shares of Sakura Bank, it does not even count as part of Mitsui Consortium. Rili Software wants to acquire DB company, DB cannot resist. It is not a subsidiary of Toshiba, and its position in the hearts of the two major consortiums is incomparable."

"Toshiba!" Zhou Shuo suddenly shuddered and shouted out in dismay.

"What's wrong with Toshiba?" Oda Shunto was puzzled.

Zhou Shuo didn't care about him, turned to look at Xiaomu Ganjiu and looked at him with a thorough look and said, "Xiaomujun, Rili is interested in DB's patents that mastered the sports compensation technology, right?"

"You!" Xiao Mu Ganjiu looked at Zhou Shuo like a ghost, and asked in shock: "How could you know!"

Zhou Shuo no longer cared about him and turned to Juno Oda and said, "Oda Sang, I can hand over the technology of the ERP system to you, but we will acquire 51% of the shares in DB Company!"

DB Company is not a newly established joint venture, and it has been established for more than three years, and shares can be moved at will.

Juno Oda swallowed, was captured by his serious aura, and asked blankly: "The entire implementation technology of the ERP system?"

Zhou Shuo nodded affirmatively and said, "No matter how small you keep, you will be able to teach and have a good time."

He clenched his fists in his heart and made up his mind to take the DB company into his own hands.

Just kidding, this is a technology that affects the future market of hundreds of billions! The so-called motion compensation technology is not a sports term, but a method that describes the difference between the first and last two frames in a video. This method is now widely used in video compression and video codecs to reduce redundant data in the video.

Of course, this technology did not jump out of the cracks of the stone, but was first used in the industrial field. Toyota's production line used its early prototypes.

Later, this technology was applied to MPEG data compression, and in 1996, the standard of MPEG-2 technology was formed. This technology standard was applied to DVD technology and became part of the patent protection content of the 6C Alliance.

The so-called 6C Alliance refers to the DVD technology patent protection alliance composed of six companies, including Dongzhi, Rili, Panasonic, JVC, Mitsubishi Electric and Time Warner. Later, China's DVD industry once accounted for 90% of the world's output value of hundreds of billions. As a result, the 6C Alliance not only began to develop China's DVD industry, but after the industry matured, it jumped out and charged high patent fees. It completely strangled China's DVD industry in one fell swoop.

MPEG technology can not only play a role in the DVD industry, but later Chinese color TV companies also have the sword of Damocles hanging on their heads. Just look at when these patent overlords are happy, they can make Chinese digital TV companies the same.

In addition, audio, computer, MP3, video player and other products, as long as there are digital media applications, they are all trembling in front of MPEG patents. Whenever you want to get stuck and how you get stuck, it depends on the mood of these people.

Rili is obviously making advance arrangements for the 6C Alliance.

As long as Zhou Shuo masters DB, he can not only cut off one hand of Rili, but also take this opportunity to enter the formulation of the next generation of MPEG technology standards. The current development of action compensation technology has not yet reached the level of perfection. In the basic patents of DB, he can first develop more advanced variable block action compensation technology, or overlap block action compensation technology.

The formulation of the MPEG-4 standard must not be avoided by action compensation technology. As long as the MPEG-4 standard was established in 1998, it can break through the 6C Alliance's patent blockade through cross-licensing.

"But with the strength of Rili Software, we have no chance of winning if we want to bid with them." Juno Oda said worriedly.

"Then I won't compete with them." Zhou Shuo turned around and said to Xiaomu Ganjiu: "Xiaomujun, I need detailed information from the president of your club. Can you do it?"

Komaki Ganjiu looked up at him. The president of a company that was about to sell it had any prestige. He was recommended by Sakura Bank to DB software company. What if he didn't take this opportunity to make some money? He nodded and said, "One million yen, but I won't collect information involving illegal acts."

"Trade!" Zhou Shuo nodded fiercely.

Xiao Mugan slowly stood up from the tatami, opened the door and walked out. It was not until half an hour later that Zhou Shuo's legs and feet were numb and unconscious, and he walked back with a folder.

"That's all. Please transfer the money to my account tomorrow." Xiao Mu Ganjiu threw the information on the table, picked up the coat from the shelf at the door, and left without looking back.

Zhou Shuo didn't care about him and quickly opened the folder and started reading.

Hiro Kawakawa has many industries, but it is mainly concentrated in the software industry. In addition to DB software companies, he also runs an application software company, which is a financial software that sells affordable locally in Japan. A security software company specializes in enterprise-level information security and data recovery businesses. A design software company produces a series of industrial auxiliary design software. A game company follows the trend and makes several electronic games, barely maintaining a situation where you don’t lose money or make money.

Zhou Shuo stared at the document that had only more than ten pages in total and read for a long time. Until Juno Oda was a little impatient, he stretched and slowly stood up. He now understood why Komaki Kazuki was always slow to get up. This kneeling posture made him dizzy!
Chapter completed!
