Chapter 719 The Harsher You Speak, The Weaker You Feel
Lu Yi's words caused a cold sweat to break out on Bob Dylan's back.
because.
At least IBM wants to be a bad friend of Future Group.
He has been thinking behind his back how to stab this strategic partner.
otherwise.
IBM will not respond to Eric Schmidt's proposal to join the OpenStack alliance to fight against the Future Group.
Although both parties are important strategic partners.
But they are also competitors.
IBM also has a cloud computing business, and its "Blue Cloud" platform is one of the few platforms that has blazed its own technological path.
Regarding the huge cake that Future Group has achieved in cloud computing, IBM is envious and jealous of "140" from top to bottom, and they can't wait to swallow it in one gulp and replace it.
so.
There are no friendly partners.
It's all just business.
Behind the scenes, it’s all plastic friendship.
When the opportunity comes, I will stab you without any negotiation.
Bob Dylan felt that his decades of life had been in vain.
Facing a young man who is not even 30 years old, he eats more salt than Lu Yi eats rice.
But in this confrontation, he was completely defeated!
Whether it was his aura or negotiation ability, he was completely blown away by Lu Yi.
Originally, he came to Longguo to investigate the crime with the mission given by the above.
Turns out great guys.
Instead, he was forced into a corner by Lu Yi.
This is beyond discussion!
The meeting ended in a hurry after about half an hour.
The end result is.
Bob Dylan had nothing to gain except a few harsh words about the outside world.
It seems like they want to forcefully break the table with the Future Group, but they are actually a weak group in their hearts.
It is not an exaggeration to describe Bob Dylan's hasty departure as fleeing.
Have no idea.
IBM feels as if it has pinched the throat of Future Group in the server area.
In fact, it's just wishful thinking.
If you don't have enough chips in hand, you can't be tough in front of Lu Yi.
Even if the attitude is very tough, it cannot hide the hollowness inside.
But Future Group is different.
You didn't hold my throat, and I am Party A's father.
Do you want to fall out with me?
The best I can do is slow down the development of cloud computing.
And what you IBM lost is tens of billions of real money!
I can give you a list of IBM, I can also give it to Intel, Huipu, Dell or even a flower factory.
This is the right that Party A’s father should have!
"Director Lu, will IBM really break the table with us?"
Lu Qi came to Lu Yi's office and asked.
To be honest, he is still a little worried about breaking up with IBM.
Cloud computing is one of the group's pillar industries, and he has been in charge of it.
If it breaks up with IBM, the group's rapidly developing cloud computing business will inevitably suffer major setbacks, giving competitors an opportunity to take advantage of it.
Lu Yi glanced at Lu Qi and said, "Why do we care whether IBM breaks up with us?"
"If we care about this, it will be equivalent to giving the chips to IBM.
"In this way, we will inevitably be threatened by IBM in various ways."
"The end result is to constantly compromise with the other party [to hand over more things."
Hear the words.
Lu Qi nodded.
indeed so.
North American thinking is to worship the strong.
The more you grovel to please someone, the worse you will be bullied.
on the contrary.
If you remain tough, you will be favored in return.
"Moreover."
"In my opinion, I don't care whether IBM has a falling out with us or not."
"IBM is indeed an important partner of ours, and the quality of their products is indeed excellent, but they are not without competitors. Which companies such as Intel, HP, and Dell are not eyeing IBM's service business?"
"Even if IBM breaks up with us, at most the development of our cloud computing business will slow down a bit, and the high-rise buildings we built will not collapse overnight because of the absence of IBM servers..."
"In this way, we have figured out our bottom line."
"That is, without IBM as a friend, we would not be hurt by this. At most, it would be a little harder."
"On the other hand, if IBM loses our friend, they will lose tens of billions of real money. Can the shareholders behind IBM agree?"
"so."
"I don't care at all about the harsh words Bob Dylan said. The harsher they say, the weaker their hearts are."
"Whether IBM and we are friends or enemies, we don't have to choose. We leave the choice to IBM."
Lu Qi nodded and said, "I understand."
The other side.
Bob Dylan returned to the hotel where he was staying and reported the results of today's talks to the senior management of the headquarters.
This time he came angrily and wanted to raise an army to hold him accountable.
5.5 I thought that the Future Group would definitely admit its mistakes under his threat.
result.
On the contrary, he himself left in embarrassment.
Over at the IBM headquarters, Bob Dylan reported that he was also a little unhappy.
The result of this negotiation is completely different from the hundreds of previous deductions.
Lu Yi's tough attitude was beyond their expectations.
only.
They didn't dare to break up with Yi directly.
If we really do this, IBM will suffer huge losses.
then.
Three days later.
Samuel Palmino, the head of IBM, flew to Sioux City from North America and was ready to talk to Lu Yi in person. .
