Rewrite the Technological Landscape - Chapter 1002
Two days later, Cook got together with more than 30 entrepreneurs from Neon Country and Goryeo Country.
As for the reason for this gathering, after resignation, I had a meal with my old friends and reminisced about the past, although no one took this reason seriously.
But at the beginning of the dinner, I was still talking about some daily life things, and there were even gossip of various industry leaders. To be honest, everyone’s feelings are not very good, and they are still very close at the moment.
This simple friendship was not broken until someone asked, “I heard that Dafeng Group wants to dig Mr. Cook to take charge of their global supply chain building problems.”
Whether the person who asked the question was arranged in advance, no one knows, and no one cares about this detail anyway.
Cook nodded without evasiveness, “I have agreed to the Dafeng Group.”
“Oh? Although there have been rumors, it is still a bit unexpected to confirm this news. Is it convenient for Mr. Cook to tell us what you think?” Someone followed this meal to the topic.
Cook asked directly, “What do you think of the recent chaos in the global supply chain?”
After everyone looked at each other, Li Zairong responded, “Dafeng Group plays an extremely important role in the global supply chain. The chaos in the global supply chain this time can be said to be caused by the trouble encountered by Dafeng Group. This is enough to see. Given the strength and status of the Dafeng Group, Mr. Cook chose Dafeng Group for this reason.”
Cook smiled and shook his head, “The reason why I went to Dafeng Group is indeed because of the strength of Dafeng Group, but it may not be the strength that Mr. Li understands. The focus is different.”
Li Zairong asked directly, “I wonder what Mr. Cook’s focus is?”
Cook replied seemingly at random, “The essence of global business cooperation is actually supply chain coordination, linking the supply side and the demand side, integrating the four streams of business flow, logistics, information flow, and capital flow to achieve comprehensive coordination. Cooperation.
Everyone agrees with this, right? “
Everyone nodded.
“Then let’s discuss another issue. The U.S. has been emphasizing the return of manufacturing industries for the past two years. It can be said that it has been painstaking for the return of manufacturing industries, but after so much effort, the return of manufacturing industries has not achieved very good results. why is that?”
“The labor cost in the United States is too high, and it is impossible to support the manufacturing return.” Someone replied in seconds.
Cook continued to ask with a smile, “Huaxia’s labor costs have increased year by year in the past few years. Southeast Asian countries have taken away a lot of China’s orders in the past few years, but China’s manufacturing industry has continued to prosper in recent years. Why is this? This is obviously not a question of labor costs.”
No one answered this time, some people had the answer in their hearts, and some didn’t, but everyone looked at Cook and signaled him to continue anyway.
“The fundamental reason is that our global supply chain in the past was not a synergy-based supply chain, but a centralized and class-based supply chain. I started when I helped Apple build a global supply chain. It is this route, and to put it more realistically, one can only follow this route.
But I always know in my heart that this route is problematic, but when I consider the problem from the perspective of corporate profits, I have to consider not right or wrong, just like those on Wall Street who “compliance” manipulate the market will not Consider whether there is a problem with this matter. What they consider is that if they create greater profits, or even for greater profits, they will want to make the width of’compliance’ longer.
Therefore, under the global supply chain rules of class-solidification, the United States has lost the conditions for the return of manufacturing, and China Xia can continue to seize the advantage of the manufacturing industry shortly after losing its competitive advantage in labor costs. The key is Internet support and decentralization. The new global supply chain ecology of mutual benefit and symbiosis has emerged and matured.
But as a person who has lived in Silicon Valley for so many years, I know how difficult it is to establish such a new supply chain ecology, and I know that it is almost impossible to achieve, because it is fighting with the top class, because It is challenging the creators of existing rules.
But it is such an almost impossible thing that has really been achieved, and it is the Dafeng Group that did this. This is the reason why I chose Dafeng Group. “
The fact that Dafeng Group is creating a new global supply chain ecology is known all over the world, but what it has done, whether it has the ability to fight or even suppress the global supply chain in the past, there has been no conclusion in the market. Cook today used his choice to tell everyone that in his opinion, this matter is actually a definite conclusion.
Everyone is silent again, because they still don’t confirm that, after all, Cook is already a member of the Dafeng Group, and speaking for the new owner is also the basic quality of a workplace person.
Cook had already guessed their reaction and continued, “Let’s go back to my first question. What do you think of the recent chaos in the global supply chain? This chaos is indeed related to the troubles encountered by Dafeng Group. But if it is really as Mr. Li understands, then the recent chaos should be the same for everyone, but it is not the case.
Just look at the data in the past few days. The orders of upstream companies in the neon country have plummeted, but the upstream companies in China have basically no impact.
Although Dafeng Group shut down a number of overseas factories, the market supply has remained stable.
It is not the global supply chain that is chaotic now, but the global supply chain of the past. “
Cook’s words immediately touched a lot of people. Recently, everyone felt that the development of things was a bit strange, but they couldn’t say what was strange. The key point here is the amazing resilience of Huaxia Enterprises at the supply chain end. At the beginning, Dafeng Group and Huaxia Enterprise were suppressed by the limit, the entire market was in chaos, but in just over a week, Huaxia Enterprise seemed to have solved all the problems, and it has indeed been reported that Huaxia Enterprise began to guarantee. News of supply guarantee price stability.
Recently, many people have sent people to check the news, but now that Cook says this, everyone can be sure in their hearts.
“How did China Enterprise do it?” someone asked directly.
Cook still keeps smiling, “What you should consider is not how China Enterprise did it~www.mtlnovel.com~ but why you did not do it, because Neon State Enterprise and Korea State Enterprise have been in the supply chain in the past. They are all in a relatively high class and are high-profit grabbers, so when the supply chain starts to move towards a new ecology of Internet support, decentralization, and mutual benefit, the changes will be relatively slow.
As for verifying my statement, you only need to spend a little bit of thought to understand the supply chain situation in Southeast Asia and Africa in the last few days, and you will understand that it is not only Huaxia enterprises that are gradually recovering, but also on a global scale A large number of companies, but what these companies have in common is that they have or have almost placed themselves in the new global supply chain ecology. “
Insert a sentence, really good, it is worth installing, after all, you can cache books and read them offline!
“Wait!” Kazuo Hirai suddenly thought of something, “I talked to Meng Qian on the phone two days ago, so I know that Dafeng Group has abandoned some projects and orders, and if I remember correctly, it seemed that the Southeast Asian side had just Signed several large orders.”
“You need to understand these things yourself. I resigned before this incident, so I don’t know more details.”
Everyone knows that Cook’s remarks are nonsense, but at the same time everyone knows that Cook just wants everyone to dig deep, so everyone didn’t continue to talk nonsense with Cook.
After the dinner was over, all the entrepreneurs who participated in the dinner issued instructions to the company as soon as possible to investigate the details of the recent global industrial chain, because at this gathering, they all felt a greater sense of crisis.
