On the way back, Mr. Li was smiling. Zhou Liwen did not go back to Shanghai directly this time when he returned to China. Instead, he went to Huacheng and negotiated with Samsung for touch screen orders. Orz's next new smartphone, including the tablet computer project that Zhou Liwen had already prepared, will soon start. As the head of the company, Zhou Liwen must arrange the matter before returning to Shanghai. In addition, Samsung transferred displays, network equipment and other technologies to TCL, including the introduction of assembly lines, etc. He also had to explain to Mr. Li. Even if Mr. Li didn't appear today, Mr. Liwen originally planned to let Mr. Li come immediately after returning to Huacheng.

Who would have thought that after learning the negotiations in China, Mr. Li could not hold back in Echeng? He immediately rushed to Huacheng without saying a word without saying a word. It was precisely because of this that Zhou Liwen met him at the airport in surprise. Since we met, we would go back and chat together.

The Guo Enterprise Building project has officially ended, and Guo’s office was moved in as soon as it was used. In addition, according to Zhou Liwen’s instructions, Guo Tao specially prepared a floor for Zhou Liwen as his office here. This is the first time Zhou Liwen has come to this office this time. Compared with the office at the research institute, this office looks larger and wider. The decoration was made by Guo Tao from Xiangjiang, which is very modern. His office accounts for half of the entire floor, with a total of more than 500 square meters, and the other half is the office used by Zhou Liwen’s secretary and assistant. Even if Zhou Liwen doesn’t work here normally, these people can still handle some documents for him and report them to him by phone, fax or email.

When he walked into his office, Zhou Liwen looked around and felt very satisfied. However, this place was a bit too big. Even though it was divided into several areas, Zhou Liwen still felt a bit wasteful when staying in such a large environment.

But when I think back, Zhou Liwen smiled and shook his head. Guo Tao made his office like this. China's national conditions are different. Chinese people look at the appearance and pomp of business. Such a huge and luxurious office space is also a display of strength. Since Guo Tao thinks it is necessary, let him go. Anyway, Zhou Liwen is not short of this little money now. Besides, the entire building is owned, and the meat is rotten in the pot, why not do it?

"Tsk tsk... Jay Chou's place is really..." After entering the office, even the knowledgeable Dong Li gasped. He didn't expect Zhou Liwen to be so luxurious. His office was large enough on the top floor of TCL headquarters, but compared with this place, it was a chicken coop. Moreover, whether it was the decoration layout, the use of materials, or even some artworks placed in the office, it surprised him very much.

"It's the first time I've been here. Mr. Guo has made it for me. I didn't expect that I would almost make it into a palace for him. This guy is really a waste of money. Such a big place is simply a waste." Zhou Liwen explained with a smile, taking Mr. Li in there.

"Luxury is considered, but waste is not necessarily the case. With Jay Chou's current value, he is worthy of having such an office. To be honest, this place looks itchy, and maybe I will make this one for myself in the future."

"Haha, this is easy. Why don't I call Mr. Guo and ask if there is any space upstairs and downstairs? You can just move the office to me. It's convenient for us to be a neighbor at that time?"

After Zhou Liwen said this, Dong Li suddenly burst into laughter and shook his head and said, "There is no need. If I move here to work, what should I do with the group? You can't let my old bone drive hundreds of kilometers to and from get off work every day, right? Forget it, if the design drawings here are still there, let Xiao Guo give me a copy. I just need to find time and I can just build a small-scale one in the group."

Zhou Liwen laughed when he heard this and agreed. The two sat and chatted for a few words. After the secretary brought the brewed tea in, they closed the door and left. Zhou Liwen then talked with Dong Li to Li about some of the technology and assembly line facilities details that Samsung Group transferred to TCL this time.

Speaking of Samsung Group's investment in China, in fact, as early as 1995, Samsung Group used this as a platform to penetrate the mainland market by registering Samsung SDI in Xiangjiang. In 1996, Samsung established Samsung Pengcheng SDI branch in Southeast Province, and this year it established another SDI branch in Xiang City, Guancheng. It mainly produces UG and UK quality LCDs and CDT electronic guns, and then opened SDI branches in Shanghai and Tianjin. In January this year, the factory in Southeast was moved to a new factory area, covering an area of ​​130,000 square meters, and from the original "raw material manufacturing" factory to an independent company with more than 4,000 employees.

TCL Group almost overlaps with Samsung's business in many business fields, and TCL's ace TV and imaging tube manufacturing are also second to none in China. If there is no previous mobile phone storm or the influence of Zhou Liwen, according to history, TCL will acquire the color TV business of Germany Schneider this year to further promote TCL's development in this field based on this.

But history has changed with Zhou Liwen's influence. The acquisition of the color TV business of Schneider in Germany was not expected. Although TCL's management has recently proposed to acquire Japan's Sanyo to obtain Japanese color TV technology, this plan was rejected by Zhou Liwen.

Zhou Liwen once talked to Li Dongshen about this. With the advancement and development of technology, ordinary color TVs will soon be eliminated, and traditional imaging tubes will be replaced by new technologies. The most promising one is LCD or LED display equipment that belongs to LCD technology but has slightly different differences. In simple terms, it is an LCD TV or LCD display.

Compared with LCD TVs, ordinary old TVs have many problems, such as bulky, low display frequency, and the damage caused by the use of high-voltage components to the human body. However, LCD TVs do not have these problems, and their resolution is even more unattainable to ordinary TVs.

Zhou Liwen asked Samsung for LCD technology. Although this technology was formed in the 1970s and was mastered by Japan in the 1980s, Japan and South Korea began to develop new LCD TVs since the early 1990s. Compared with old-fashioned imaging tube TVs and projection TVs are products that are about to be eliminated. Either don’t do it or do it the best. This is Zhou Liwen’s choice. But there is a problem. Although Samsung agreed to transfer this technology to TCL and provide equipment support, Zhou Liwen has always been worried about whether TCL has the ability to digest it.

"This is indeed a bit difficult." Although Mr. Li is not a professional, he created TCL and is not unfamiliar with the technology in this area. After listening to Zhou Liwen's concerns, he thought about it carefully and replied.

"But, can't Samsung provide technical support? There is also a complete assembly line for us. I think if you have these, you can always master them even if you take a longer time, right?"

Zhou Liwen smiled bitterly and shook her head, "My Brother Li, do you think Bangzi is so kind? As far as I know, Samsung has speculation in China exceeds 100 million yuan, and it has invested in SDI alone, with a total area of ​​more than 50,000 square meters. If we master LCD technology as soon as possible and officially put into production, do you think Samsung will give up these investments and let us occupy this market?"

After being reminded by Zhou Liwen, Li Dong immediately reacted and said solemnly: "Brother, do you mean that Samsung is just bait? They don't really intend to transfer core technology to us?"

"Yes, no." Zhou Liwen shook her head again and said, "This time in South Korea, I met Lee Kun-hee, the head of Samsung. This is not a simple person. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is so scheming. How could a large group that can operate Samsung Group to the highest level in South Korea and even count in the world be an ordinary person? I can conclude that there will be no problem with his technology transfer, and there will be no too many tricks in equipment. But given our technology and production capabilities, it is hard to say whether we can produce products that meet the requirements. After all, he is a businessman, and merchants are pursuing interests. He will never set strong obstacles to his products."

"Brother Zhou, as you said, is it useless for us to get the technology and equipment?"

Dong Li was immediately anxious and couldn't help asking questions.

Zhou Liwen shook his head again: "It's hard to say, the key depends on the actual situation. In this way, I will give you a small suggestion first. If the LCD TV cannot be successfully put into production, I suggest starting with LCD monitors first. After all, the international and domestic computer IT industry is developing rapidly, and LCD monitors are widely used. Moreover, compared with TVs, production is relatively less difficult. In this way, Samsung can dispel concerns and cooperate with us with all its strength. Second, it can also borrow the manufacturing monitors to gradually digest their technology to lay a solid foundation for future production of TVs."

"This is a way of thinking, maybe it's OK." Dong Li's eyes nodded, but he thought about it and felt strange, and asked, "Since that's the case, why is Samsung still so generous?"

"They are not generous, they also have something to ask for." Zhou Liwen smiled and pointed at him. Lee Dong was stunned and then laughed loudly, nodding repeatedly: "I understand, you and Lee Kun-hee are actually working on the same abacus and tacitly act together in front of everyone."

Zhou Liwen immediately laughed and nodded. It seemed that Dong Li had already understood the situation. As he said, everyone was performing, but they also made efforts. Whoever made a profit would depend on who had better methods and abilities.

"There is another thing I almost forgot to tell you. This old boy Cai Mingjie has made another trick. This time it's a big deal!"

"What do you mean?" Zhou Liwen asked in surprise as he looked at Li Dong's gritting teeth.
