Chapter 299： [All plastic friends]

The latest website: Bob Swan, who came to negotiate on behalf of IBM, is not weak, and it looks like he is playing a plastic friendship.

IBM is very unhappy. Whatever "vinegar jar" says, just turn it over, right, originally we two had a good time, and we had a good life in the little days. You have to keep your eyebrows on your eyebrows. Yunwei is still my apprentice to IBM.

How could you be better with my apprentice?

IBM is angry and the consequences are serious.

Suddenly staged a "triangle love" drama in the technology industry.

The truth is that the story is about to be serious. Three days ago, IBM unilaterally announced that it was no longer cooperating with Weiwei and withdrew all the remaining engineers and consultants.

This has to be said about some of the old past. When he always regarded the "blue giant" IBM as a world-class teacher, he was so moved that he resolutely decided to spend 4 billion tuition on tutoring from IBM, and he asked him shamelessly to learn from IBM Art, which lasted five years.

This kind of mind, pattern and willpower is also extremely rare in the history of world economics. This is also the key factor for the reason why Weiwei can reach the top of the world's communication technology.

IBM was actually unwilling, but had to be willing to, because in the 1990s, the "blue giant" suffered the worst financial crisis in history, sales revenue stopped growing, profits fell sharply, and losses reached $ 16 billion. And on the verge of bankruptcy.

This "blue giant" has always been the pride of the United States in the last century. This tragedy has been described by the US media at the time as "a foot has entered the grave"

Weiwei came to school with almost 4 billion tuition fees at this time. At this time, IBM could not refuse, so he accepted the apprentice.

Moreover, IBM misjudged the form. When I saw that I was studying at my door, there are many companies in China who have such a strong thinking like Weiwei. IBM is called a heartbeat, and one is about 4 billion. Ten companies are 40 billion.

As a result, IBM was stunned. The Chinese market only had this awareness of being a company and no other company. If more companies at the time had this awareness, Americans should be afraid.

Today, I am a giant who has grown to be a dare not to be ignored in the global communications technology field.

At this moment, Luo Sheng is facing a reverse question from Bob Swan, and laughs: "It doesn't make sense. The cooperation between me and Weiwei to build a few data centers does not conflict with my cooperation with IBM. Weiwei The next orders won't be separated from IBM's orders. The agreement arrangement is clear. Is it not a breach of contract for me to do so? "

Well, it's justified, but my Bluestar technology is in great demand, and that's what happened.

But is this really the case?

Obviously not, IBM is not stupid. Anyone who can see clearly that Luo Sheng's move is supporting the server business of Weiwei. The reason is very simple. I think the current server solution is far inferior to the IBM solution. You still have one. Give the list vigorously.

And one by one, one a year, now almost two a year.

Weiwei's server business unit has stable orders, has income, and then invests money in research and development. Technological progress is affirmative, and there is a sentence. IBM feels that Weiwei is worthy of recognition and respect. .

"Mr. Luo, there is nothing wrong with giving you several orders. The problem is that your behavior is supporting a potentially powerful IBM competitor." Bob Swan said with a serious face.

"What?" Luo Sheng was surprised. "If at this moment there is a senior executive sitting next to me, he will be surprised when he hears you. He can be so respected by a former teacher, and he will probably be flattered and deep. I'm honored. "

Bob Swan stared blankly at the other side without saying a word. In short, it seemed that Luo Sheng owed him hundreds of millions.

However, Luo Sheng did not dislike his expression, and said immediately: "But then again, I think IBM is too overestimated, and too unconfident in myself. I ca n’t believe this is the blue What the Giants said. "

Bob Swan felt stomachache when he heard it, and he seemed to be admiring IBM for a while, but when he thought about it, he was clearly taunting that IBM was getting old and unconfident, and even his former apprentices were false.

However, for a moment, Bob Swan opened his eyes and said, "Mr. Luo, as a long-term strategic partner, IBM and Bluestar Technology are facing a crisis of trust. This time I come to consult with you on behalf of IBM to resolve the crisis of trust. This is to ensure that We can stabilize the fundamental problems of cooperation in the future. "

Luo Sheng said briefly: "How to solve it?"

Bob Swan said immediately: "Your company immediately ceased to cooperate with Weiwei, and IBM's production capacity can be completely replaced. This point is completely unnecessary for your company to stop working with Weiwei. If your company is determined to cooperate with Weiwei, IBM's strategic cooperation with your company will cause serious harm in the future, and even the termination of the cooperation is possible. "

There is a sense of threat in the lines, especially at the current time point. IBM, which is brought by Silicon Valley IT giants, has just reached the alliance and the power of the Open-Stack open source cloud platform.

Americans are wrong.

They did not calculate that Luo Sheng would not be intimidated by this threat. At first, it was expected that IBM would not be able to put up this huge cake of more than 40 billion US dollars, and now it has eaten more than 5 billion US dollars, leaving only I have n’t eaten about 40 billion. Second, there is no IBM. This is not an IBM competitor. If Ignore such as Intel, then this is not a good idea. The big problem is to light up the server technology here. If it is harder, it will be harder, and if the strategy shrinks, it will shrink. Anyway, I am confident that I can make a comeback in the future.

The reason why the server is not done is because it is not necessary. For Bluestar Technology Group, this is considered a marginal business, and the second is to understand the sharing of benefits. Money is inexhaustible. Scattered people. At this time, a group of enemies on the outside have been peeping for a long time, and the inside is even more united.

If you are rich, you can make friends by sharing benefits, even if it is plastic friendship.

But eating food alone is the enemy of the world. Even a plastic friend can't make it. That's too bad.

Not many people are idiots in the game of shopping malls.

Eating this set of food alone, no matter how powerful, there will be no end in black technology.

"Haha, Mr. Bob, I think your company is really overly concerned, I just like to make friends." Luo Sheng talked pleasantly and laughed: "I want to say ... IMHO you Americans have a stubborn stubborn smell. The problem is that you must make a clear distinction between right and wrong. As a result, your friends have made a little, but the enemies who have formed Liangzi have more than a dozen friends. The quality of the enemy is even higher than that of friends. Friends are the worst, most of them are pig teammates. "

Bob: "..."

Luo Sheng looked at the other with a puzzled look and added: "I don't understand. Why do we always create opponents out of thin air, and why do we always turn over the original sins and bosses of others? Bluestar Technology hopes that there are more friends and fewer enemies. Yes, we have made friends with IBM, made friends with Yahoo, and made friends with Google. Now you are joining forces to get rid of the Nebula Star-Cloud. It doesn't matter. Commercial competition should be the only way to promote development, but the friends we should make are still If you want to make such a friend, you can make such a friend, and for such a friend, you have to make a friend. We have to make friends of the left, middle, and right. "

For an American who adheres to the distinction between friends and enemies, advocates the Thuides trap, and believes in the value of zero-sum game, Luo Sheng's words make Bob Swan feel incredible. Once the competition must be divided between friends and enemies, the result of the competition is bound to Win or lose.

How can you make friends with the enemy?

The next level is only the enemy's enemy can be friends.

If Bob Swan could understand the truth and values ​​in the Chinese Book of Changes, there would be no such doubts.

"It's okay to make friends. As you said just now, if you make friends accidentally, you will be stabbed in the worst way. Before I make friends, I want to find out if you are a friend of IBM, or will you stab a friend in the back?" Bao Bob Swan stared straight into the other's eyes.

Luo Sheng doesn't expect to change an American's values ​​with just a few words, so Bob would not be the global vice president of IBM.

But for a moment, Luo Sheng annotated the other with a slight smile: "There is a philosopher of Cicero who says that everything in the world is written on the face, and lies to look at the face, but the eyes are traitors to the soul, then Mr. Bob Are you seeing my friend or my friend in my eyes, eh? "

In the end, facing Luo Sheng's unequivocal gaze, instead, Bob Swan quickly defeated, actively looking away, subconsciously raising his hand and touching his forehead, but did not sweat. www.novelhall.com ~ but sweat.

This person is terrible. He is obviously twenty years older than him. However, when negotiating with the other party, he finds that he is becoming less and less energetic, and that invisible pressure is growing.

Because Luo Sheng's words just embarrassed Bob Swan, and he even prayed that the other party should not see anything.

That sentence seemed to hit the soul, and hit the point with impartiality.

Because, at least IBM wants to be a Bluestar technology's loss friend, and has been thinking about how to stab each other behind the back, really think it is a friendly partner. IBM is actually envious of Bluestar technology's cloud computing services, can't wait Swallowed.

All plastic friendship!

Bob Swan realized that he wasn't Luo Sheng's opponent at all. The opponent's self-confidence, aura, and the tension of negotiation completely exploded himself. This sentence could not be discussed.

Unless you play tricks, but it will only be more ugly to lose, IBM's face loses the rhythm, and you can prepare to resign when you go back.
