it the tech industry's version of Mission impossible. First, we start | :00:56. | :01:02. | |
with the ChinaChinese President's tour of Europe. Multibillion`dollar | :01:03. | :01:15. | |
deals have been yielded, from energy agreements to orders for Airbus | :01:16. | :01:17. | |
jets, and an investment in struggling car maker Peugeot. Trade | :01:18. | :01:21. | |
between China and Germany is worth $200 billion a year. That is more | :01:22. | :01:27. | |
than trade with France, Britain and Italy combined. German firms moved | :01:28. | :01:34. | |
into China more aggressively than their European rivals, led by the | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
big car makers. Volkswagen was the first foreign car maker to set up | :01:38. | :01:40. | |
shop in China over 30 years ago. Rival BMW sells far more cars in | :01:41. | :01:44. | |
China than it does at home in Germany. However, that growth is | :01:45. | :01:46. | |
slowing and some German bosses want to see less reliance on China and | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
more focus on other markets like Africa. Laura Hesse is deputy | :01:51. | :02:05. | |
director of the trade bureau. We're just talking about the history in | :02:06. | :02:08. | |
terms of trade that has bound China and Germany for many years. How | :02:09. | :02:12. | |
would you describe the current state the relationship? China is an | :02:13. | :02:19. | |
important trade partner for Germany, it is the second`biggest export | :02:20. | :02:25. | |
market for German products the EU. Relations between Germany and China | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
are still very good. It is a very important day today, not only for | :02:30. | :02:33. | |
China's president, but also for Angela Merkel. Both economically and | :02:34. | :02:39. | |
also strategically, geopolitically, in light of the crisis in the | :02:40. | :02:45. | |
Ukraine. As I was saying, the rapid rise in trade between the two | :02:46. | :02:49. | |
countries has stalled somewhat in recent years, hasn't it? Is Germany | :02:50. | :02:54. | |
actively trying to avoid dependence on China? Or perceived dependence on | :02:55. | :03:02. | |
China? I would not say that Germany is dependent on China. It is the | :03:03. | :03:06. | |
biggest market, the second`biggest, as I said, but at the same time, | :03:07. | :03:17. | |
relations between Germany and China are importing geopolitically, in the | :03:18. | :03:20. | |
light of what is happening in the Ukraine. China's relations to | :03:21. | :03:28. | |
Germany are also important for Angela Merkel, because she needs the | :03:29. | :03:36. | |
partnership, the Chinese partnership, if she is going to off | :03:37. | :03:43. | |
she would have a stronger position vis`a`vis Vladimir Putin, if she has | :03:44. | :03:49. | |
stronger relations with China. There is some market speculation that | :03:50. | :03:56. | |
Frankfurt is vying for a position as a offshore trading hub for the yuan. | :03:57. | :04:08. | |
This deal might be signed on the same day that China's president is | :04:09. | :04:15. | |
visiting Angela Merkel. This would be important for Frankfurt, which | :04:16. | :04:20. | |
wants to establish itself as an offshore hub for trade with yuan | :04:21. | :04:26. | |
settlement, and also clearing of yuan trade. This is very important | :04:27. | :04:34. | |
for Frankfurt. You mentioned earlier, some of the political | :04:35. | :04:37. | |
relationships between Germany and Berlin, vis`a`vis Ukraine, recently | :04:38. | :04:44. | |
there was also that spat over solar panels, the decision of the EU to | :04:45. | :04:53. | |
impose regulations that am settled a lot of German companies that had big | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
stakes in China. They come through that now? China has been very act | :04:58. | :05:05. | |
of, not only in Germany, but also in the UN, France, and it is trying to | :05:06. | :05:14. | |
more or less have good contacts with other European countries, especially | :05:15. | :05:19. | |
in light of the trade conflict from last year. Eventually, it might try | :05:20. | :05:28. | |
has been outlining his ideas for the light, | :05:29. | :06:20. | |
has been outlining his ideas for the future of the country. Office will | :06:21. | :06:22. | |
now be available for iPad, but is that a smart move, or an admission | :06:23. | :06:30. | |
of defeat in the post` PC world. Our correspondence, Richard Taylor, was | :06:31. | :06:33. | |
there. This speech by Satya Nadella was the | :06:34. | :06:37. | |
first time the new loss has been able to outline his vision for the | :06:38. | :06:41. | |
country. A lot of investors were worried that he was too much of an | :06:42. | :06:45. | |
insider to be able to effect real change. He talked about a mobile | :06:46. | :06:54. | |
first, Cloud first strategy. The real goal for us is to step up to | :06:55. | :06:58. | |
provide the applications and services that empower every user, | :06:59. | :07:02. | |
across all of these devices, and all of these experiences. That is | :07:03. | :07:08. | |
perhaps job number one that we do, to empower people to be productive, | :07:09. | :07:14. | |
to do more across all devices. The move of Office to iPad really | :07:15. | :07:21. | |
signifies a strategic shift and a willingness to embrace rival | :07:22. | :07:26. | |
hardware. Previously, they were just holding it hostage to Windows. The | :07:27. | :07:30. | |
real question is, how much of an audience will it find. In the past | :07:31. | :07:40. | |
few years, developers have had plenty of perfectly respectable | :07:41. | :07:42. | |
applications that work well enough for a lot of users. If it is | :07:43. | :07:47. | |
executed well, then it provides one less reason for people to buy into | :07:48. | :07:55. | |
Microsoft's own hardware, like the Surface tablet. Microsoft is | :07:56. | :08:01. | |
operating in a post` Windows world, and now sat `` Satya Nadella has to | :08:02. | :08:11. | |
work out how to best embrace it. This could be mission impossible. | :08:12. | :08:14. | |
This is John Chen, the new boss of black brew, tasked with saving it | :08:15. | :08:23. | |
from extension. `` BlackBerry. Analysts expect the slump to have | :08:24. | :08:28. | |
continues, with sales down 59% on last year. Investors seem to have | :08:29. | :08:31. | |
confidence. BlackBerry still has one fan, the | :08:32. | :08:40. | |
president. The White House is testing other phones, but the user | :08:41. | :08:46. | |
in chief is not switching. A relief for BlackBerry, but also a reminder | :08:47. | :08:50. | |
of how far the company that popularised smart phones has fallen. | :08:51. | :08:56. | |
This is the tech insider charge with reversing the Canadian firm's | :08:57. | :08:59. | |
fortune. John Chen, watched carefully by Wall Street. The the | :09:00. | :09:04. | |
real focus by investors is going to be on what the new CEO, John Chen, | :09:05. | :09:10. | |
has in store in terms of maximising shareholder value. The wanting alike | :09:11. | :09:19. | |
about him is that he has come in and is viewing BlackBerry not just as a | :09:20. | :09:23. | |
device, but that all the assets and what they are worth. Touted by the | :09:24. | :09:28. | |
former boss as the company's salvation, these phones failed to | :09:29. | :09:33. | |
win back market share. Under John Chen, BlackBerry teamed up with a | :09:34. | :09:39. | |
Chinese manufacturer to save money and produce a low`cost phone. Since | :09:40. | :09:44. | |
John Chen took over last November, black area's share price has risen | :09:45. | :09:49. | |
by roughly 40%. Investors want to believe that he will succeed where | :09:50. | :09:56. | |
others have failed. Nobody expects BlackBerry's failures to be fixed | :09:57. | :09:59. | |
overnight. When it reports its earnings, investors will want to see | :10:00. | :10:02. | |
evidence that its fate is not misplaced. `` of their faith. | :10:03. | :10:09. | |
Shares mostly road `` rose in Asia on Friday. This is the view across | :10:10. | :10:19. | |
the region at the moment. Goodbye for now. | :10:20. | :10:34. | |
Alice will be back shortly when we review the papers. We want to | :10:35. | :10:39. | |
highlight some new research, suggesting that thousands of it is | :10:40. | :10:44. | |
