Editor's note: Mr. Li Yang said: "If the number of hits in this article can exceed one million, our country has hope!" I very much agree with this sentence because we have reached the point of declaring war on the spam of the Internet. We need articles that can lead us to think deeply, especially articles that relate to our future destiny should be widely disseminated.
Take advantage of the world and build a world-class enterprise
Xiang Bing/Wen
There are two important trends in global economic development in the 21st century: First, the global economy is further integrated, and the global resource integration capabilities of world-class multinational companies have been further enhanced. The existing industrial resources on the earth and the existing mainstream industries have basically been divided. The country of the enterprise will become increasingly blurred, and more and more people will appear: "You have me, I have you." For example, IBM of the United States may have institutional investors or citizens of N countries holding it at that time. The stock, IBM's management team will also come from all over the world. Second, the greatest impact on the changes in the world economic landscape may be the global multinational corporations that have now dominated the world economy. The global strategy of these companies and their development trajectory will directly affect the reshaping of the world economic landscape in ten years.
Our analysis and judgment begins with the economy of the existing three major economic entities (Europe, United States, Japan), and then explore the opportunities and challenges of Chinese companies:
The greatest influence on the general trend of the world is, of course, “one super-strong†and “one superâ€: the United States. The United States has several characteristics. First, it is super powerful. For example, nearly 100 of the top 100 brands in the world are U.S.; 10 top brands, 8 U.S. companies; and 500 of the world's 500 are almost half; they spend more on military spending than the rest of the world. The development of the capital market and the financial management capabilities of companies are also unique. The overall technological and managerial innovation capability of U.S. companies is also global.
Second, the ability to coordinate global resources: U.S. multinational corporations have emerged from a huge domestic market, and then rely on their strong capital, advanced management and technology, and powerful brands to conquer the world step by step. Therefore, U.S. corporations have a clearer global strategy. And global resource coordination capabilities.
Third, the world's talent is for my use. The most unique and arguably the most important advantage of the United States is its ability to focus on the talented people in the world. This allows the United States to integrate its global resources with global resources. After "9.11", U.S. policy (such as immigration policy) tends to be conservative, which may further limit the further development of U.S. integration and global resource capabilities. However, the popular and openness of American culture, the United States’ leading global elite group of universities, and the United States’ system of talented people, the alluring American dream, unrivaled technology and innovative capabilities are all difficult for the elites of the world. Resist the temptation. The United States is the only country in the world that can “trinity†maintain and expand its economic interests: strong corporate groups can earn “moneyâ€, and financial and non-financial instruments can realize the strategic shift of “money†and even use powerful ones when necessary. Military machines to grab "money." In the foreseeable future, the U.S. economic dominance will not waver.
The current United States has the following characteristics: First, it is increasingly selfish toward the "U.S. national interest paramountcy." As the only superpower, it is less and less concerned about the interests of other countries, and it is not even willing to do its utmost to the global village. Some basic obligations of citizens (such as the Kyoto treaty); Second, intelligence and analysis of other countries are first class. It conducts systematic information collection and in-depth analysis of every country (current and potential) that he considers to be a competitor. In other words, countries that are opponents of the United States want to cope with the United States by means of straying through the oceans and stealth positions. It is very difficult. Third, it is very difficult for China, which has been positioned as an opponent by the United States, to obtain support and support from the United States and become a powerful nation.
European companies have both international competitiveness and humanistic spirit, and humanistic spirit is an important cornerstone for ensuring good corporate behavior. European companies should occupy a more important position in the global economic map in the future. It is worth mentioning that, compared with Europe and the United States, we should pay attention to the division of labor and cooperation between countries and enterprises in integrating global resources. The United Kingdom is a hard-core ally of the United States. The most likely future to form a good strategic alliance with China is France and Germany. France and Italy are leading globally in design and high-end consumer products, while Germany is a manufacturing powerhouse. So I estimate that we and France and Germany may jointly create a group of world-class companies may be relatively large. Especially in Germany, Germany is an important bridge and partner for us to lead a powerful country. We should better study the deeper and broader cooperation between manufacturing and German companies on a global scale.
From the perspective of geo-economics, our strategic rear area is East Asia and Central Asia. From this perspective, we should have a side of cooperation with Japan in terms of competition. We should look from the perspective of global strategy, look from the front, and win the idea that the next issue is the last word, and seek more cooperation with Japan. However, Japan has already been more wary of China, and Japan is the United States’ hard-core coalition in Asia.
I think that every Chinese in our country will hope that China will soon become one of the world's economic powers - not only a big country, but also a real power. The realization of our dream of building a strong nation requires the production of a number of world-class enterprises from China in the world's mainstream industries. In my opinion, it is imperative that our people (especially entrepreneurs) quickly change their horizons, look at China from the world, view the earth from the moon, and see the world from China. It is also important to build the capacity to integrate global resources, and thus to achieve a seamless connection between China and the world. We must realize that a nation cannot be the best in all aspects. For example, high value-added, precision manufacturing is dominated by Japan and Germany; high-end luxury goods and great-inspired designs are mainly French and Italian specialty. Capital markets, brands, technology, and management innovation are part of the U.S. companies' dedication to watch. It is also worth noting that our competitors (multinational corporations) have reached a new height and realm in integrating global resources. Under this new situation, it is very important to promote independent brands and independent innovation, but it is not enough to confine itself to independent brands and independent innovation. We must rely on ourselves and cultivate our ability to integrate resources on a global scale. Only relying on independent, self-reliant thinking to deal with the challenges of globalization may be somewhat unsustainable.
Another relatively common problem among Chinese ethnic enterprises is the narrowness of business thinking and the lack of innovative business models. For example, we have been mainly relying on low-cost strategies to cope with global competition. Few companies have competed through business model innovation and achieved global leading status (such as Amazon Online Bookstore, eBay, Google, IKEA, etc.). We are even more subversive. Business model and technology innovation. The global negative killing power of our competitive model based on the cost advantage of the price war is actually very large, and it may cause the world to become "uneasy." For developing countries, our low-cost manufacturing will have a relatively large impact on the industries there. It is very difficult for companies in these countries and regions to upgrade their industries. We may therefore lose their allies in the economy or even in diplomacy; in addition to the developed countries, our competitive strategy, besides the suspicion of "self-reduction of martial arts," can gradually transform the middle class in developed countries and regions. Become a low-income proletariat. Therefore, I emphasized on various occasions that the lack of an open field of vision and conservative thinking may be the biggest obstacle to our effective response to globalization.
Over the past 20 years of reform and opening up, we have achieved remarkable achievements that have attracted worldwide attention and laid a good foundation for meeting the challenges of the next decade and 20 years. We must further promote the "harmony but not the same" atmosphere and tolerance in our culture and actively explore new horizons, new thinking, and new strategies for acclaimed economic powers.
