Microsoft expects bright days in China
Microsoft Wednesday declared that it had signed a Memorandum of Understanding with National Development and Reform Commission of China during Chinese President Hu Jintao's visit to the company. It is a further commitment on its China strategy which seems to be working better now. An article by China News Service (CNS) Friday gives analysis as the following.
Microsoft has reasons to be particularly proud these days. It hosted the reception for Chinese President Hu Jintao during the latter's visit to the US and won big orders from four major Chinese PC makers. The giant company finally began to see its good days on horizon in China.
The favorable environment in China helps Microsoft's success here. China has been increasingly integrated into and bound by the rules of the international community. The intellectual property rights protection is one of them.
In its 11th Five-year Plan for 2006-2010, China promotes the idea of an innovation-oriented nation. That cannot be achieved without the protection of the Intellectual Property Rights.
Microsoft's operating system has won biddings from the Chinese government procurement which has launched a campaign to make sure authentic software is installed in PCs of government institutions. The efforts on promoting authentic software is under way in the whole society, including publicity and market rectification. Microsoft's benefits are protected more effectively in the process than ever.
The biggest software company in the world was founded in 1975 while China, the largest developing country in the world, has a history of more than 5,000 years. When Microsoft entered China in 1992, it was at a loss about how to deal with a country with such a long history.
In Microsoft's early days in China, its policy of "anti-piracy" and image of monopoly disgruntled the Chinese public. Soon both Bill Gates and Microsoft's CEO Steve Ballmer realized that something had to be done to appease the public.
That brought about frequent visits between 1999 and 2001 to China by the company's executives. In those talks then Chinese leaders, including President Jiang Zemin, Premier Zhu Rongji and Director of the Planning Commission(former NDRC) Zeng Peiyan, told Microsoft that it can cooperate with the National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Information Industry.
Then a series of agreements were signed between Microsoft and the two ministries on investment, personnel training and aid projects to equip rural schools with computers by Microsoft.
Microsoft's cooperation in China proceeded well since then and built up an image of a good corporate citizen. Chinese President Hu Jintao's recent visit to Microsoft during his US tour symbolizes the support of the Chinese government and reflects Microsoft's years of efforts.
China may be the only country in the world which is able to challenge Microsoft's Windows. Thus, Microsoft didn't try to change China as it did before. It's tried to change itself for China. Chen Yongzheng, President of Microsoft Greater China, has strengthened communications with the company's US headquarters to help them develop further understanding about China.
Microsoft has not made profit in China but has firstly invested heavily on cooperative projects in China. As a Chinese saying goes: if you want to take, you must first give.
For Microsoft, the upturn to profits is right in sight.

Nokia eyes more market share in China
Nokia Corp., the world's largest maker of cell phones by shipments, said that it expects to gain more market share in China this year through its focus on both the low-end and high-end segments of the market.
"We had over 30 percent market share in the greater China area at the end of last year, and in the first quarter, our market share further strengthened on a pretty healthy product mix," said Colin Giles, senior vice president of China area customer and market operations.
The executive, however, declined to provide specific market share targets in China.
The Finnish mobile handset maker saw its global handset market share rise to 32.8 per cent in the first quarter from 30.9 per cent a year earlier.
Second-ranked Motorola Inc. saw its share rise to 20.1 per cent from 16.5 per cent, while third-ranked Samsung Electronics Co. saw its market share dip to 12.7 per cent from 14.1 per cent a year earlier.
New phones
To further boost its presence, Nokia unveiled three new "N-series" mobile phones, which allow users to take photos, read e-mail, listen to music or watch TV on the move.
Nokia said it has sold more than 5 million N-series multimedia phones since last year and expects the multimedia market to grow to 100 million units in 2006 and exceed more than 250 million units in 2008.
"China has great potential for these converged devices. There are sufficient people in China with enough disposable income who have an interest in these products," Giles added.
While companies such as Samsung have focused on the mid-to-high end segment of the market as they typically yield higher average selling prices, Giles said Nokia's strategy in China is to cover all the product categories.
While consolidation in the mobile handset industry is ongoing, Giles said Nokia has no further plans for acquisitions, especially in China.
Still, Giles said he expects competition in the China market to remain tough. (AP)
