Chapter 1098: Can it be restored?

Robert. Galvin met the visiting Eric in his office. Tan, but he never thought that this young man with power in Silicon Valley would first pay a respectful salute when he saw him.
This is completely different from what he envisioned.
In his thoughts, this man became famous at a young age and possessed huge wealth. He had a reputation that was in full swing, and he was also in a more advantageous position in the war with his own side-to Eric. At Tan's age, he must be a domineering person at least quite arrogant and conceited, but the reality does not seem to be the case.
In this young man, he saw calmness, calmness, and humility, and he even felt that when Eric saluted him, the respect came from the heart.
Tan Zhenhua then explained the reason to him: "Mr. Galvin, before I came to visit you, I spent some time learning about Motorola’s history, and this made me have a sincere admiration for you. , In the past thirty years of leading the company, Motorola has made remarkable achievements-you made the world’s first commercial high-power transistors; provided thousands of semiconductors for the "Apollo Project" for the first landing on the moon. Components, land-based tracking and testing equipment, and airborne tracking and communication equipment; the two series of CPUs MC6800 and MC68000 you designed led the computing revolution and made personal computers a truly popular commodity; you also promoted communication technology It was the first to realize the cellular mobile communication system, erected the world’s first commercial wireless telephone communication base station, and manufactured the world’s first commercial mobile phone DynaTac8000X, making convenient communication anytime, anywhere Dream. Mr. Galvin, as a latecomer in the industry, I must thank you and your colleagues for their outstanding contributions to improving the technological capabilities of mankind. Since there is an opportunity today, please allow me to tell you Express my respect."
No one would not like to listen to others complimenting themselves, especially when this person is a little older, he would prefer others to praise his most proud achievement in person. This feels like telling a grandson who doesn’t understand anything by the fireplace. Much more refreshing-so Tan Zhenhua's opening remarks immediately won Robert. Galvin's favor.
He even secretly compared the young man in front of him with his son Chris, and regretted to discover that when Chris was at Eric’s age, he still didn’t know anything but liked him at that time. Facing the dry stunned green...Fortunately, now he is also mature.
Robert. Galvin shook his head slightly, expelled the thought from his mind, smiled and asked him to sit down, and after a few simple chats, he quickly turned to the topic.
"Eric, I'm very curious, based on our current sharply antagonistic relationship, what do you want to talk about with me?"
"Of course it is cooperation. We will do some beneficial business together, which is beneficial to both of us." Tan Zhenhua answered his question with a smile.
"Benefit to both of us?" Robert. Galvin stunned, and then laughed: "Young man, you are not here to persuade us Motorola to give up our current position and join your "Midoor" camp? If you come with this purpose, I am afraid I have to tell you with great regret that it is impossible, and there is absolutely no need for you to waste time on that."
"I know, so I am not here today for that matter-in the two alliances, one will eventually fall, and the living one can enjoy the rich fruits of controlling all market resources, Mr. Robert, In the face of such a wonderful ending, I don’t think any of us will be willing to withdraw, so I will never discuss that with you. The cooperation I said has nothing to do with that."
Robert. Galvin was a little surprised, and then raised his eyebrows-is that right? This is the clear understanding and sharp words that a young and famous young man should have.
But then he had even greater doubts: "Eric, since it wasn't for that matter, then I can't think of where else we can cooperate? I thought we should be competitors."
"We are indeed competitors in many aspects, but this does not mean that we cannot cooperate in other complementary aspects, right?" Tan Zhenhua said, pointing to his mobile phone and said: "Mr. Robert, I The cooperation mentioned is about this product."
It turned out to be for this!
Robert. Galvin finally realized.
Eric is right. For the vast majority of companies in the "Matrix" laboratory or the "Midoor" alliance, there is almost a blank in the field of wireless communication. They have no accumulation or mastery of any core. Technology, and Motorola is the strongest in this field!
Motorola, which started in the walkie-talkie business, wireless communication is one of its most advanced and proud achievements!
It turned out that this ambitious young man wanted to reach out into his most leading industry? Want to cooperate with Motorola? But young people, we are Motorola, one of the overlords of the wireless communications industry and the maker of industry rules, why do you ask to cooperate with us?
Robert. A sarcasm smile appeared involuntarily at the corner of Galvin’s mouth. He just wanted to say something to ridicule the young man who was a little bit ignorant, but his next sentence blocked everything in his throat. Even the expression on his face stiffened.
"I heard that Motorola just encountered a serious failure in China? That's really a shame."
It’s a pity, but Robert. Galvin didn't see a trace of regret on his face, and the smile on his mouth looked like gloating.
"Eric, how do you know?" He asked involuntarily, and at this moment, he had a very bad association-Motorola's failure on that project would not be caused by the person in front of him. Ghost?
As if seeing what he was thinking, Tan Zhenhua shrugged his shoulders and said: "Mr. Robert, I can swear that I have nothing to do with that. In fact, I didn't know that it happened a month ago. I had another very important project busy at the time, and when I learned about it, the result was already out."
Robert. Galvin looked at Tan Zhenhua up and down with suspicious eyes for a long time, and decided to stop struggling with him on this issue. Anyway, the results have come out. I am afraid it will be too late to do anything. No, with the shrewdness that Eric just showed. And his ability to grasp the current situation, why did he specifically mention this seemingly hopeless project? Could it be that he has a way to recover the result of that failure?
