Warwick company in 1990 was not Warwick company in 2015, but now it is a small company. There are no excellent contacts, no strong financial resources, and even face the risk of bankruptcy.

    There are many successful examples of the development of Chinese foreign joint ventures. Baidu, Alibaba, Tencent, Lenovo and other companies are all controlled by foreign capital. However, the management right of the company is on the Chinese side, and it is subject to the supervision of the Chinese government, which enables the company to develop and grow in China!!! Henry also develops according to this model. In order not to let others find out that Cisco absolutely controls Warwick, he also specially founded Aihua holding company, which controls Hong Kong Hongnian company and Kowloon Investment Co., Ltd. behind the scenes, making several companies control Warwick separately without attracting people''s attention!

    Henry naturally knows that if Cisco wants to dictate and control the development of Warwick, then Warwick has not become a giant telecom equipment manufacturer. It''s OK for the company. Otherwise, it is likely to arouse the strong resentment of the Chinese government and suppress Warwick.

    Therefore, Henry had thought very clearly before that the management right of Warwick company should be handed over to the original staff of Warwick company. Cisco controls the company behind the scenes and seizes wealth. It only needs to send financial supervisors. And then use the huge amount of money from Warwick to invest in R & D, so as to keep ahead of the world in technology!!!!

    Technology is hard power!!!

    Of course, equity incentive plan is a very important part of the development of the company. Henry''s company will start the equity incentive plan, take out 10% - 20% of the shares!

    For example, John Chambers, CEO of Cisco, owns 2% of Cisco''s shares, which is $2.4 billion in US dollars! As a professional manager hired later, instead of the founder, he made $2.4 billion, which is already the best professional manager in the world!

    ……

    ……

    Warwick headquarters.

    Ren Zhengfei and others discussed for an afternoon, but did not come to a conclusion.

    At this time, they received news that sun zhehan of Hong Kong Hongnian company went to another two switch companies in Shenzhen in the afternoon. These two companies are also agents of Hong Kong switch. They only do sales, not research and development, but their scale and sales channels are much larger than those of Warwick. If Cisco becomes a shareholder with technology, it will make up for the weakness in technology research and development. In addition, it has more complete sales channels than Warwick. Once the products come out, Warwick will undoubtedly suffer from the disaster!

    The whole Warwick company was scared when they heard the news!

    The next day, for Warwick company, it is a heavy blow!!!

    Before, some customers who ordered the small switch asked for a refund one after another, because other companies promised them to provide better and cheaper switches! Other companies are not other companies, it is sun zhehan yesterday afternoon contacted the two switch agents!

    Warwick is in a mess.

    The customer''s money has been invested in R & D, and Warwick is so poor that it can''t give them any money back.

    Customers blocked at the gate of Warwick company, shouting: "Warwick, give me money back!"

    Ren Zhengfei calm face, sitting in the office, speechless, around him full of the company''s top management! In the room, smoke smoke, choking people breathless!!!

    "Mr. Ren, if this continues, those customers will rush in and smash things!" One of the employees suddenly rushed in and yelled.

    Ren Zhengfei took a deep breath and asked in a deep voice, "what kind of conditions did sun zhehan offer there? Did they agree to cooperate?"

    "The details are not clear, but they are still negotiating," said Ren Ping, vice president of intelligence gathering

    Sun Yafang, a senior financial officer of Huawei, said: "sun zhehan can''t represent Cisco. Although Huawei is not big, it can independently develop switches. I think this is the key for Cisco to take a fancy to us, otherwise sun zhehan would not come to Shenzhen, and the first stop is to come to our Huawei Company! "

    Ren Ping said: "that being said, if our Huawei Company does not agree with sun zhehan''s terms, then they may cooperate with him..."

    "It''s just sun zhehan''s trick to force Huawei to agree to their terms in this way," Sun said

    "Yes, that''s right!" Ren Ping nodded and said, "but this is the plot of others. Even if we know it, what can we do? Now the top priority is to find funds to solve the problem of customer refund. We Warwick''s switch is about to succeed in research and development. We can''t fall short at the last moment

    There was silence in the office!

    Ren Zhengfei looked up at Sun Yafang and asked, "Sun Yafang, go to the bank and see if they can give us a loan?"

    "I''ll go now..." Sun Yafang nodded, then stood up and walked out of the office.

    Ren Zhengfei sighed: "we have to do this first... Ren Ping, go to appease the customers first and say that our switch can be 10% cheaper; For those who insist on asking for a refund, you say we can get the money back to them soon, please don''t worry! " After a pause, he said, "well, you can delay as long as you can, and strive to wait until the bank loans us!"

    "OK, I see!" Ren Ping answered and walked out of the office.

    Ren Zhengfei said to the people around him, "you also go out to help. I want to be alone."

    "OK, Mr. Ren..."

    However, two days later, Avon sun, the financial officer of Warwick, went all over the banks in Shenzhen, but none of them was willing to lend money to Warwick. In itself, bank loans are very difficult. Secondly, the bank sent people to understand the current situation of Warwick company, and even more dare not give it a loan. This loan may become a bad debt in the future, and the risk is too great.

    Sun Yafang disappointed to return to the company, Ren Zhengfei from her face has seen the results.

    "No bank is willing to lend us money?"

    Sun Yafang nodded and said dejectedly, "that''s right..."

    Ren Zhengfei nodded and asked nothing more. In the past, if the bank was willing to lend to Warwick, Warwick would not have to use the money of subscriber reservation switch for R & D expenses. Now, many customers are blocking the door to ask for a refund, and the bank still dares to give a loan to Warwick company. Ren Zhengfei doesn''t believe it very much... However, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, he still has to try, but after trying, he still fails!!!

    "Is there only one way for Warwick?" Ren Zhengfei''s eyes were dazed, looking at the wall.

    At this time, will there be a turn of events happen?!
