Microsoft and silver news finally get finally confirmed that the body “Microsoft concept” with the wave of micro and touch also long. August 26,, Microsoft and wave investment agreement signed, Microsoft investment of 200 million yuan ($25 million) shares holding subsidiary wave wave group international, get so far Microsoft in China the biggest sum investment.
For wave group is concerned, 200 million yuan RMB is just a small investment, but the tide in the status of Microsoft China strategic layout is let them excited inotropics support, record this wave can catch Microsoft ship, make up for its in software technology the boards. The long-sleeved dancing behind it as a wave of the Microsoft of shandong government, so far the Chen yongzheng Chinese place in cooperative strategy complete layout.
Unusual in hand
August 26, Microsoft Office 2010 and wave has opened with $200 million veil of the cooperation, the official information for: Microsoft will invest 200 million yuan to wave is mainly used for development cooperation in jinan wave ERP, electronic government, software outsourcing, and other related businesses. The most important is, according to the headquarters of the wave Microsoft layout mode, in jinan high-tech zone established within the international advanced technology enterprises park.
And wave IT products mainly engaged in international distribution, procurement and resale, main is to act as a wave was an overseas group electronic components the role of the purchaser. Obviously, wave and Microsoft cooperation is the foundation of the software industry, the main business is not the cooperation.
So why Microsoft to bypass a and the cooperation, no business contact of Hong Kong listed companies to complete the wave-international capital injection?
Wave group brand ZhaoLeiMing department for the financial times explanation is, “wave international is the wave group foreign cooperation window, wave in international financial system more transparent, internationalization. On”
And Microsoft directly capital injection and shares a Chinese company is not common, although there have been zhongguancun software and Shanghai minimally invasive precedent, but Microsoft accounts for equity is less, and the cooperation, Microsoft will have wave international 28% equity stake, its shareholders will further increase its identity “indigenous descent”, while strengthening the cooperation of the project’s actual control.
Local cooperative strategies
Wave restive group of shandong, the largest shareholder of shandong province (accounting for 38.88% of) the financial, another two big shareholders for the China Orient asset management corporation (16.13% of shares) and China huarong asset management companies (19.99% of shares), were state-owned assets management company. Microsoft large flick, 200 million yuan wave flower falls. Microsoft is certainly on the Chinese territory in shandong Microsoft strategic position.
Shandong is in Beijing, Shanghai’s two biggest cities, and between the east and the Japanese, South Korea facing each other across the sea, finished last year in the gross domestic product (GDP) the second. The government has made great efforts to the development of high and new technology in shandong province, in the form of law fixed the high and new technology development zone of legal status for the city government agencies and can be set up level 1 financial and level 1 vault, enjoy the government at the next higher level than the area of higher status and management authority, it is rare in the whole country.
Microsoft and cooperation in shandong province has a long history. In 2004, shandong government procurement office software is based on the Windows platform of all. Microsoft’s operating system and office suite the winning more than 5000 sets, jinshan WPS 2005 the winning 1500 sets, and the division of the winning 100 red flag just symbolic of Linux.
In addition to government procurement, Microsoft still tight stare at the electronic government affairs and enterprise informationization. But now the government of e-government and the enterprise information list to the most local enterprise, Microsoft is hard to step in. With the wave form alliance, a Microsoft important purpose is local software suppliers and interests bind, rob government big list.
Microsoft obviously for China’s national conditions more clearly know, state-owned enterprises and governments at all levels of the software market is major share of China’s software market. Microsoft CEO Chen yongzheng of greater China region, seeing the is the market. Microsoft is not simple and a enterprise alliance, “MingXiuZhanDao, sneak”, it wants the is and enterprise behind the government concluded “good”.
In Microsoft’s map, wave from the east, the west have long rainbow, south have a conducive intellectual, a north China digital. Pretender to the government large sheet, Chen yongzheng of “local cooperative strategies” has reached the acme.
This new strategy with Microsoft China schooling. In 2004, the first ACTS of half an year launched Microsoft China’s new Chen yongzheng strategy, it is the key of the “rooted in the Chinese native Chinese, software, and the Chinese government’s economic cooperate actively with”. In “bang” government procurement effect is not apparent, Microsoft “bypassing” place strategy, is to help it gradually around the threshold of the government procurement law.
