Chapter 905: Misfortune Leads to the East
"Mr. Hu, I think you are deceiving me, do you really think they really have the technology? Your company is in a city, whether they have established a strong R&D team, you don't know? In our eyes, it is easy to defeat a company without core technology. Glittery said domineeringly.
Glittery isn't a fool either, and it's impossible for Apple not to know anything about its competitors, not to mention that the two companies have been working together before.
"It's easy? Hehe, how easy? I really don't understand, how to do it. Hu Mingchen smiled lightly.
"Hu Now, let's talk about our own affairs, why bother to pay attention to fame and fortune companies, there is no need to care about it. Glitteri didn't follow Hu Mingchen's wishes at all.
"I think it's necessary because we can work together in a lot of ways, but ...... As the third company to launch a new product, I'm really worried about your strength. In the mall, people like to work with the strong rather than choose a weak one. Hu Mingchen said.
Watching Hu Mingchen and Glittery play a sharp game, Chen Xuesheng sat next to him and listened, never interjecting. Because he already knows Hu Mingchen's bottom line, that is, he does not plan to sell IPENG at all, let alone sell Pengbo Electronics. It's just that Hu Mingchen suddenly pulled the topic to the fame and fortune company, and he was a little puzzled, why did he want to change the topic like this?
Hu Mingchen did this, of course, he had his ideas. Apple can not be afraid of fame and fortune, but Hu Mingchen cannot be afraid of it at all.
They are now all mainland enterprises, and the scale of the company and Pengbo Electronics are not on the same platform at all, especially their manufacturing capacity, Pengbo Electronics can't catch up.
If you don't do the fame and fortune company, at least in the domestic market, Guo Mingli will be a powerful spoiler.
Although Hu Mingchen has secretly changed technology and created obstacles for Guo Mingli, Hu Mingchen still can't take it lightly for the future.
"Yes, Vanity is indeed a very large-scale company, with hundreds of thousands of employees, but don't forget, they are just a foundry, and there are many foundry companies on the market, if Vanity Company can't get orders, they will collapse at a very fast speed. In our opinion, only companies with technology in their hands are real enterprises, and companies like theirs can support another one at any time if they want to. When Hu Mingchen said that, it was difficult for Glittery to completely avoid it, so he had to follow Hu Mingchen's words and say, "The foundry relies on the upstream brand owners to eat, and once the brand owners abandon it, it is difficult for them to fight back." ”
"Is that all?, Mr. Glitterrie, if that's what you're doing, then I'm sorry, I think your company is going out of business, and working with you is a dead end. Hu Mingchen said disdainfully and unceremoniously.
"Why do you deny us, let me tell you, our company is impossible to go bankrupt, it is impossible, we have a first-class technical team, we have a first-class management team, we have a first-class product. Glitterrie fought back as if he had been stepped on by the tail.
"First-class? Are you a first-class manager? Part-time jobs are a joke, if it's really like you say, can those OEM owners still become billionaires? Do you think that without you, people will go out of business? Do you think it's so easy to support a company that can compete? I remember that your company is a customer of Fame & Fortune, why? Is it because you enjoy food? No, because they can do what you want at a very low price. Not to mention whether another company can have that cost advantage, that is, quality control, I'm afraid you don't dare to choose a small foundry easily. I really didn't expect that your insight was like this, if this can be regarded as first-class, then I am afraid that there will be hundreds of Fortune 500 companies in Africa. Hu Mingchen said sarcastically.
Hu Mingchen's words made Glitter angry, and he wanted to refute it, but he couldn't completely deny Hu Mingchen's words, because Hu Mingchen was telling the truth.
Although there are many OEM companies, the larger the brand owners, the more they dare not choose small foundries. Just like Pengbo Electronics in the past, it has never received an order from a company with international influence.
Because these big brands, of course, are interested in price, but they also value production capacity, whether they can place a large number of orders and can deliver on time, and the quality can be guaranteed.
As far as these conditions are concerned, in addition to a price advantage, the previous Pengbo Electronics did not occupy any others, so it could only eat some domestic customers. Others don't dare to bet too heavily on them, otherwise once they mess up, the brand owner will have to follow suit.
Hu Mingchen is disgusted with fame and fortune companies, and he also looks down on Guo Mingli, but Hu Mingchen is not crazy, he is not self-righteous to the point of ignorance. On the contrary, Hu Mingchen kept his senses, a company of the size of Fame and Fortune Company, if they were to fall all at once, it would be impossible.
"What's going on? Mr. Glitterrie, you don't even have a fame and fortune company, and you say you can do this and that, forget it. Although the scale of our company is not large, it will not cooperate with second- and third-rate companies, even if we want to sell, we can sell to Nokia, sell to Sansan, and sell to Motorola. Go back, I guess it won't be long before you will be defeated in front of the Fame and Fortune Company, and maybe I will be more wise to go to the Fame and Fortune Company to cooperate. Hu Mingchen pursed his lips and said.
"No, you can't work with Fame Inc. Hu Mingchen mentioned that he would sell to Fame & Fortune, and Glittery was extremely excited.
It's strange to say, Hu Mingchen mentioned Nokia, Sansang, and Motoruola, and Glitteri could still keep calm, but Hu Mingchen mentioned that he could sell it to Fame and Fortune, and he couldn't stand it.
"Why can't they? Do you think they can't afford to spend $150 million? Don't forget, Guo Mingli is also a billionaire, a billionaire. Hu Mingchen raised his eyebrows, raised his voice and said, "Who do you think you are, can you decide our direction for us?" Don't you think this is ridiculous?"
Glitterrie, or Jonas, is really not worried about Hu Mingchen and Nokia working together, for the simple reason that those big companies don't think that smartphones will be the way of the future, at least so far, and they are not optimistic. Otherwise, according to their strong strength, similar products could have been developed long ago.
Those companies are still fighting on traditional mobile phones, conquering the city and seizing the market.
But they are very concerned about the cooperation between Pengbo Electronics and Vanity, which is fatal to Apple. The reason is simple, this is a strong combination.
Now that Vanity has preemptively released their smartphones, it shows that Guo Mingli is also very optimistic about the market, and he is very similar to Jonas unlike those old international business owners. Vanity has no technology, but Pengbo Electronics has, and Vanity has the world's leading strong production capacity, and as soon as they cooperate, Apple will lose half its life.
There is also the most critical point in this, once Hu Mingchen and they cooperate with Fame and Fortune, then the very fatal point of Fame and Fortune Company will be completed, which is what Glittery and Jonas do not want to see anyway.
"Mr. Hu, Mr. Chen, I am here for your own good, you can't cooperate with a thief, you should know that a thief has no moral bottom line. There is no intellectual property right in the products of Vanilla Company, and I am sure that their technology is either stealing yours or ours. If you cooperate with them, you are playing with the tiger. Glittery said excitedly.
"I'm sure that their technology definitely doesn't come from our company, we do a very good job of secrecy, and we don't have any interaction at all, let alone cooperation. By the way, I remember, your company is one of the important customers of Mingli Company, and your computer products are produced by them. Oh, I see, you're all in this together, one second you warned me not to work with thieves, the next second you all show your close cooperation, I'm so disappointed in you, Mr. Glitterrie. Hu Mingchen said very calmly.
Hu Mingchen can't be forgetful, of course he knows that the technology of Vanity Company was stolen from Pengbo Electronics, and even Chen Xuesheng knows this.
Chen Xuesheng really admires Hu Mingchen's mental quality, this lie is said confidently, his face is not red and his heart is not beating, it is like the real thing.
"We're not in a bunch, I swear to God, we're not. Our partnership was limited to the past, and we will definitely adjust our relationship in the future. Let me tell you, our company has prepared the legal documents and is about to sue Vanity for its egregious torts. As long as we win the lawsuit, the fame and fortune company will be unlucky, how can we be in a gang. We checked, and they didn't have a single patent for this product, but instead used a lot of our patents, but they didn't get our authorization. Glittery jumped to his feet angrily.
In fact, Apple believes that Fame and Fortune stole key information from them. Otherwise, they wouldn't immediately think of going to court.
The laws on intellectual property protection in the United States are very strict, and the penalties are also very severe. In this lawsuit, Apple will choose to fight in the United States, not to mention anything else, once this lawsuit starts, the North American market of Vanilla will basically be blocked. Moreover, the probability of fame and fortune companies losing is almost 100 percent.
Guo Mingli himself felt that they were using Pengbo Electronics' technology and property rights, and they didn't think it was like that, and before that, Apple kept its own technology absolutely secret. That's why Guo Mingli has no fear, and he is ready to be sued by Pengbo Electronics, and even plans to pay a fine of tens of millions in the end.
It's just that in this domestic environment, even if Hu Mingchen and the others win, they will lose in the end, because the profits of fame and fortune companies can be tens of millions, hundreds of millions, and tens of millions.
