Chapter 700: how to cooperate

At dinner, Peng Mingsheng apparently made preparations to understand the communication products of Zhiduoxing and Lianxiang.
"Chapter, we can use some communication technology to invest in the subsidiary of your Zhiduoxing mobile phone business. As far as I know, there is another major shareholder in that company, is it Mr. Li from Xiangjiang?"
"I also had a relationship with Mr. Li. We have had cooperation in the communications business. I think this cooperation will make our interests more closely combined."
Peng Mingsheng was very interested in seeing the rapid growth of Zhiduoxing mobile phones in the past two years. If you can invest in such a rising company, it will definitely bring a lot of return to IBM.
Before IBM proposed a tens of billions of dollars in research plans, major adjustments have been made, and they plan to increase research costs to ensure industry leadership.
At the same time, they will also vigorously promote patent protection to protect their own interests. Of course, the external statement is to protect the interests of all patent holders, they are the largest patent holders.
"What does IBM want? Then what technology will come out?" Zhang Yang squinted.
Peng Mingsheng said several professional terms, but Zhang Yang never changed his expression. Peng Mingsheng couldn't sit still, he was not satisfied with his condition?
"Chapter, what the do you want?"
"It's not what I want, it's up to you what IBM has. I don't lack money, and any of your IBM shareholders can use as much cash as I do, so you don't have to say anything if you invest money."
"In terms of technology, we have worked with several companies, the largest of which is Motorola. At that time, we paid more than 200 million US dollars in cash to help Motorola overcome the difficulties. For this reason, I also let me invest Another wafer company has received the fab that Motorola will sell."
"Do you think we lack technology? Can't we develop the technology ourselves? Many of the patents you just mentioned are very good, but it seems that many of them are only applied in the United States, but not yet in other places, because similar patents have been found in other places. Successfully applied locally."
"Coincidentally, we have applied for a lot of patents last year, including a lot of communications. If you only have these mainstream but not leading technologies, then we do not need to talk about this issue, change the topic. Is it not good?"
As a reborn person, how can Zhang Yang not know the importance of technology? If the company is to grow and develop, and can not lag behind, it must master the top technology, and always ensure that the technology is leading.
In the game industry, their game consoles already have many advanced technologies, such as somatosensory games, and this is the leader. Others are some fun game designs that lead the trend.
In terms of non-game industry and investment, it is necessary to ensure the development of technology, so the investment in technology research and development has never been reduced every year, and has been increasing.
Zhang Yang is more willing than others in this respect, and the recruitment of technical staff has always been the most. Not only Zhiduoxing, including Wan Yan and other companies, also attaches great importance to technological research and development, and the speed of applying for patents is also fast.
In fact, the companies that claimed to have tens of thousands of patents in the previous life, many patents have long been unused, because they are already outdated. But they combined some patents and authorized them to obtain some benefits.
No one even wants a lot of patent portfolios, and they will not give up. They can also upgrade on this basis and bring benefits to the company again.
And many companies have infringed on other people's patents, and they didn't find them because they didn't know they had this patent. The patent ten years ago may seem to be a very common technology now. You can easily research it and use it and you will be claimed by the other party.
Some patent holding companies never declare how many patents they have, remind others to circumvent and avoid infringing patent ownership. He will wait for the other party to use it, make a profit, or even grow and grow, and ask for more compensation, otherwise it will make your company bankrupt.
In this way, they sold the original patent technology worth 10 million yuan for a 100 million license fee and made more money.
Of course, there will be many infringements of patents, without waiting for you to reap them, go bankrupt, or sell to others, and take the money away.
And IBM has the most American patents. Many patented technologies may be applied before the research is completed. When you review, the research is completed, which shortens the time to apply for a patent.
In this regard, some "human relations" are involved, and IBM has been caught in the past life. Many executives have paid bribes, and they have been punished a lot for the sake of profit.
"Chapter, don't you want to cooperate with us in communications?" Peng Mingsheng was a little unhappy. You offered to take the initiative. Is this playing me?
"No, I think. It's just that it's not necessarily Zhiduoxing. It can be another company, a communications company in Ghana."
Peng Mingsheng suddenly responded: "The Ghanaian communications company that was acquired before is your hand?"
"I am just one of the partners, not the leader. Now do you think that we still have the possibility of cooperation?"
"of course."
Peng Mingsheng smiled. He didn't mind working with another company, as long as he could make money for the company. The better the performance of his CEO, the higher the salary.
Turning around, Peng Mingsheng asked again: "Liu, so can our two cooperate on the mobile phone project? We can also deepen exchanges, maintain a closer relationship and develop together."
"You can talk about it. I'm also thinking of divesting the mobile phone business and setting up a subsidiary. IBM is also welcome to buy shares."
Regarding cooperation with IBM, Liu Chuanzhi is not against ~EbookFREE.me~ Even thinking is not as emboldened as Zhiduoxing. It has the technology bought, the technology developed by itself, and the products are sold so well. If you amortize the logistics and sales costs of direct-operated stores, even if you want to make mobile phones in the domestic market, you will lose money.
"How about each of us holding 50%?"
Liu Chuanzhi shook his head: "Up to 30%."
The other party still has 19% of the equity of Lianxiang Group. If both parties hold 50% of each other, wouldn't the other party have indirect control?
The subsidiary company they even think of can only be controlled by the Lianxiang Group. The development direction must be controlled by the Lianxiang Group, and will not be handed over to outsiders!
"Too few, many of our technologies can be taken out, and we can also give a cash."
Liu Chuanzhi picked up the glass and interrupted the other party. Why use the money we bought your PC business to buy into our mobile phone business?
"Less than 30% can be talked about. It's impossible. And IBM has never made a mobile phone. What is your technology? It hasn't been tested by the market."
