Xinhua:
Thank you. I am Xinhua News Agency reporter. This issue to Zhang Ruimin representatives.We know Haier acquired GE electrical appliances last year, after the international merger and acquisition of enterprises is very difficult.
Zhang Ruimin:
We had more than $ 5 billion in merging GE electrical appliances last year, and now we are faced with two major challenges: the first one we have surpassed it in strength, because in 1992 they were ready to merge Haier, which was made in China to find a Very potential business, selected Haier.However, we talked for more than two months, did not talk about, we did not agree with its merger.
Did not think, 24 years later, we instead of the GE electrical appliances. That is to say our size is small, not comparable, but we are now far more than it is the size of the merger requires two factors, the important factor is you The strength of the strength itself is strong enough, it is an important factor, not a deciding factor. Determinants can be achieved after the merger of the '1 + 1 greater than 2', the reporter mentioned, most of this problem can not be solved. The solution is in strength over it, the management model to learn it, the output of Haier's management model.
The original GE is the example of learning all over the world, and now we put a single mode of output to the GE, when they have doubts about this there are hundreds of executives and I met, when an executive asked you to merge us, How to lead us, meaning that was learning us.I said you should be clear positioning, I am your shareholders, but not your leadership and superior, your leadership and my leadership is the same person, is the user. Concept, we must serve the user.
Therefore, they accept the model of the single person.To the present, it may be the only big company in the United States to break the hierarchy, the use of self-management, into an independent entrepreneurial team.Although the current is not good enough, but the effect has been The growth rate of their revenue and profits grew 2-3 times over the same period in the first nine months of this year, and I think we will have to make the Chinese model the best model in the future. The Chinese model is the best.
I told him that, like Westerners familiar with the salad, we merged a lot of international companies, but I did not change you. I did not change the number of people in the United States. The form, you want to unify the use of my pattern, that is, vegetables to maintain their own form, but the salad dressing is uniform .I think this is really embodied in the word, is self-confidence, the total secretary of the four self- Personally think that 'four self-confidence' that is home is the four words - China self-confidence. Thank you!
