"So, the way of cooperation proposed by the Huizhou Province is generally recognized?" After listening to Leilani Taylor's introduction to the communication with Huizhou Province, Chen Geng confirmed to her.

"Yes. "The main problem now is that the Hui province thinks that the proportion of control we want is too high, and they can't accept it. ”

67% of the shareholding ratio, if you don't know how big a business this is, it's just that, now that you know how big a business this is, how can Hui Province not want to try to participate in more shares?

For this situation, Chen Geng had already expected, he pondered for a while, and said to Leilani Taylor: "You can make some concessions appropriately, but not less than 51%, how to weigh your own grasp, my request is one, to complete the signing of the agreement as soon as possible, and to ask Wanyan Electronics to provide VCD-related technology information as soon as possible, and to register more patents as much as possible, this matter is the top priority at present." ”

When Philips, JVC, Sony and other experienced and skilled electronics giants complete the analysis of VCD technology and the registration of patents, there is much less room for maneuver.

Leilani Taylor immediately said: "I discussed with the leaders of Hui Province, but although the leaders of Hui Province agreed very happily, they always seemed to be blocking us intentionally or unintentionally in the actual implementation process, and they seemed to be preventing us from contacting the top management of Wanyan Electronics. ”

Hearing Leilani Taylor say this, Chen Geng immediately understood what was going on: the interests were too great, and Wanyan Electronics was the biggest and only bargaining chip in Hui Province, of course, they had to stop Chen Geng's people from meeting the person in charge of Wanyan Electronics before they negotiated - of course, it was not good to stop them on the surface, so they adopted this method.

In the final analysis, it's still money.

After pondering for a moment, Chen Geng asked, "Is Chen Xiaoshan here?"

"Mr. Chan is outside," Laylani Taylor said immediately, "I'll let him in." ”

"Boss, are you looking for me?" Hearing Leilani Taylor say that Chen Geng was looking for him, Chen Xiaoshan was a little excited.

"Well," Chen Geng responded, and asked directly: "Chen Xiaoshan, Hui Province is intentionally or unintentionally blocking us from contacting people who can speak to Wanyan Electronics, do you know?"

"I can see it," Chen Xiaoshan hurriedly said, "Boss, what do you command?"

"I want you to bypass Hui Province and find a way to connect with the senior management of Wanyan Electronics without attracting the attention of Hui Province, and it is best to get in touch with Mr. Jiang Wanmeng directly, can you do it?"

Chen Xiaoshan's heart thumped, and he hurriedly said, "Boss, no problem!"

Swallowing his saliva, Chen Xiaoshan said: "I have a college classmate who is from the Hui Provincial Animal Husbandry Research Institute, and through his connections, he should ...... No, I'm sure I'll be able to contact someone from Wanyan Electronics,"

Speaking of which, Chen Xiaoshan already understood why the boss of the Zhang family deliberately called him in: "After contacting Wanyan Electronics, I will find a way to ...... with the other party It is best for Mr. Jiang to explain the situation and tell them that now the consumer electronics giants of the East and the West, such as Scottber, Philips, and Sony, are analyzing the technology of VCD, and now is the last time to register the surrounding patents of VCD. Philips initiated a patent lawsuit and fought a lawsuit with them, on the other hand, it was not feasible to preemptively register peripheral patents as much as possible, and finally reach a patent swap, and the best way now is for them to provide technical information and entrust us to register VCD-related patents in various countries. ”

"That's right, that's it," Chen Geng was very satisfied that Chen Xiaoshan was able to comprehend his meaning in such a short time: "How is it, is there a problem?"

Chen Xiaoshan said without hesitation: "No problem!"

"Then let it go, it's getting better and better," said to Chen Xiaoshan, and after saying to Chen Xiaoshan, Chen Geng instructed Leilani Taylor again: "Leilani, no matter what kind of support Mr. Chen's side needs, you will fully support him." ”

"Don't worry," Laylani Taylor said immediately, "I will do my best to meet all of Mr. Chen's needs." ”

Chen Geng responded, and finally advised: "You must be fast!"

Hanging up the phone, Chen Geng pondered for a moment, looked at the time, thought for a while, estimated that Rosemary had not rested, picked up the phone and dialed her out, and after a while, Rosemary's voice full of ridicule came out of the phone: "Boss, you can really pick a time to call me." ”

"What? are you resting?"

"Not yet, just took a shower," the voice was a little small, accompanied by the whirring of the wind, as if Rosemary was blowing her hair on a hair dryer, "Boss, tell me, what's the matter?" I know you wouldn't call me at this time if it wasn't for something very important. ”

Chen Geng chuckled lightly, and admitted it: "That's the case, Mary, you should be very familiar with Texas Instruments, right?"

Rosemary laughed: "Boss, are you kidding me? Don't forget, at least 60% of the optical drives on our thinkcenter and ThinkPad are from Texas Instruments, you say I am not familiar with Texas Instruments?"

"OK, that's the best," after a pause, Chen Geng said: "Mary, that's right, I found a very interesting thing here in Huaxia, VCD, video-cd, which is the same size and style as an ordinary CD music disc, but it is similar to a videotape developed by the mpeg coding technology of Scober Microsystems, and I am very interested in this thing......

"It's the technology that can put movies or other things into a disc together, it sounds like a very interesting thing," Rosemary understood as soon as she heard it, as a person who has been with Chen Geng since the beginning of Chen Geng, Rosemary has a family-like mentality towards Chen Geng, and there is a tacit understanding that is difficult for ordinary people to understand, Chen Geng has not finished speaking, she has roughly understood what Chen Geng meant: "So you plan to entrust Texas Instruments to help you develop such a set of disc drivers and reading systems?"

"That's right, that's it," Chen Geng nodded, "The patented technology belongs to us, but in the future, I can purchase the movement from their Texas Instruments." ”

"Leave it to me," said Rosemary confidently, "I promise to give you a satisfactory answer soon." ”

“OK。 ”

........................

Rosemary's movements were very fast, and on the third day, she called Chen Geng: "Boss, I contacted Russell, the senior executive vice president of Texas Instruments, and he said that Texas Instruments is willing to help us develop VCD movements, and this cooperation is carried out in a commissioned development mode, and they are also willing to help us OEM VCD movements, but if we OEM the movements, it will be very difficult for him if our order is too small." ”

"Texas Instruments is so good at talking?" Chen Geng was a little surprised.

"It's still very talkative," Rosemary replied, "especially after I promised to increase my order for CD-ROM drives next year." ”

I see!

Chen Geng couldn't help but shake his head: he thought about this matter simply, he is the largest customer of Texas Instruments Group's computer optical disc drive, and now he asks Texas Instruments to help him develop a VCD movement, for Texas Instruments, this is not too high technical difficulty, and he is willing to sell it himself.

"Since Texas Instruments is so face-saving...... That's it," Chen Geng thought for a while, and instructed Rosemary: "You tell them, let them help me design and manufacture two VCD movement production lines, and I am going to set up a special VCD movement production factory in Huaxia." ”

Since it is impossible to grasp the VCD patent in the hands of Wanyan Electronics, it is better to take a step back and find a way to make yourself the largest VCD movement manufacturer.

"There should be no problem," Rosemary said with confidence, "If you promise that all the information reading and decoding chips on the movement will be purchased from Texas Instruments, I think Texas Instruments should be happy to cooperate with you." ”

"So be it...... Well, Mr. MacDonald Jr. is coming to China in the next few days, why don't you come with Mr. Russell with Michael?" Chen Geng asked, "I think this business is good, I think we can sit down and have a good talk." ”

"Yes, I think it's good. ”

........................

Just when Chen Geng and the leaders of Hui Province were "fighting openly and secretly", Chen Geng's decision to marry Ding Ruoyan had already caused a huge sensation in a small area.

Although Chen Geng and Ding Ruoyan have been talking for several years, everyone is actually not very optimistic about the future of the two, or whether Chen Geng will marry Ding Ruoyan, on the one hand, because of the unspoken rule we mentioned before, and on the other hand, everyone feels that Chen Geng has a better choice: I heard that the Morgan family, the Rockefeller family, many political families in the United States, And many royal families in Europe are interested in marrying Chen Geng, from this point of view, Chen Geng's choice of any of these women to be his wife will help his career more than choosing the daughter of Comrade Ding Haijun, in this case, how could he choose Ding Ruoyan?

Put yourself in Chen Geng's shoes, everyone thinks that don't look at the two of them who seem to be in love, the possibility of Chen Geng choosing Ding Ruoyan is really slim, not to mention that this guy's private life is really not good.

But what everyone didn't expect was that Chen Geng just chose Ding Ruoyan - what did he think?

But no matter how much everyone doesn't understand Chen Geng's choice, a realistic question is, what should we do here?

For a while, many bigwigs were divided into two factions, and everyone started arguing about the reasons for their support and opposition.
