Chapter 1060: Cooperation

Chen Geng decided not to stimulate Li Rui, what if this guy thought he was really mocking him?

He nodded in response, "That's right...... Well, but according to my understanding, Huaxia's technology in the field of mobile communications, especially in the field of GSM digital mobile communications, is almost blank, so what are your plans for this cooperation? What is the short-term plan? What is the long-term plan?"

Chen Geng's words were too direct, and Li Rui was a little embarrassed.

can be embarrassed to be embarrassed, Li Rui has no way to refute Chen Geng's words.

No way, Chen Geng is telling the truth, in 1994 in China, there is no technical background and accumulation in digital mobile communication technology, although the current mobile phones are 20 years later no one will pick up the black and white screen monophonic mobile phone, except for making and receiving calls and sending text messages, nothing else can be done, listen to songs, watch videos, Even Bluetooth and even more advanced NFC functions are not to be thought of, but even so, we can produce a mobile phone case and buttons at most, in the core field of mobile phone radio frequency technology and mobile phone baseband chip technology, we are also completely blank, probably the only thing to be thankful for is that compared to the original time and space, now we can produce batteries - Chen Geng investment, Ding Ruoyan operated.

So Chen Geng's question is very real: you are blank, so, how are you going to play this game?

Since Li Rui had already invited Chen Geng, he had naturally done some homework before. He pursed his lips and said: "In the early stage, it is natural to focus on CKD, but we hope that through the accumulation in the early stage, we will gradually establish and form a complete set of design and R&D capabilities from the appearance design of mobile phones to the core baseband chips and RF chips......"

Without waiting for Li Rui to finish speaking, Chen Geng smacked his mouth: "Mr. Li, if you want to meet this requirement, the annual investment must be at least 100 million yuan, this is still the early stage, and then the scale of the enterprise will expand, and the annual investment in technology research and development may be one billion.

Are you overly optimistic?

The most important thing is that information security has been paid more and more attention by governments, information security is national strategic security, and the communication industry is a major event related to the national economy and people's livelihood and even national strategic security for any country...... Isn't it a bit risky to hand over such a thing to a joint venture company?"

After listening to Chen Geng's words, Li Rui smiled: "Mr. Chen, what you said and your worries, we actually have considered, the huge investment in research and development is indeed a problem, but the domestic market can not be satisfied, we can find a way to export, as for whether you are worried about whether it is appropriate for joint ventures to do this, have you forgotten the magic bell company? ”

Modu Bell Company is the introduction of Huaxia in the 80s, the most advanced technology, by the central government directly under the only joint venture company in the communications industry, in the domestic industry status is extremely transcendent, Li Rui mentioned the Modu Bell Company, is to tell Chen Geng, with the good cooperation and mutual trust we have built over the years, since we can even believe Bell Company, can we still believe you?

Now that Li Ruidu has already said this, Chen Geng is not entangled, he nodded and said: "If this is the case, then I personally have no problem in principle, but I need to conduct a thorough investigation of the details of the mobile communication industry." ”

"Finding out?"

"That's right, find out," Chen Geng sighed and said: "No way, we don't have any experience in the mobile phone and communication industry before, let alone the accumulation of technology and patents in this area, but our computer industry and the communication industry are more or less intersecting, and we know a little about their situation, huh...... Let's not talk about this pile in the computer room for the time being, just talk about mobile phones, such as the core baseband chip in the mobile phone, a complete baseband chip includes a central processing unit, channel encoder, digital signal processor, modem and interface module.

In the world, the patents related to mobile phone baseband chips and RF chips have been in the hands of international giants such as Nokia, Ericsson, Texas Instruments, Marvell, Freescale, Broadcom and ADI, and these international giants use these patents to compile an airtight patent wall. ”

Implication: You say, can I not find out about the situation beforehand?

There is a deeper meaning behind this: how should the benefits be distributed? If you don't say anything, how can I respond to you?

But at the same time, Chen Geng can be regarded as showing his attitude: everyone has opportunities and space for cooperation.

Li Rui naturally understands these two meanings, in fact, this is the effect that Li Rui wants to achieve in this meeting, and he does not have the luxury of expecting that Chen Geng will be able to agree without hesitation just by meeting with him, which is unrealistic.

"Boss, the Wanyan company you asked for and their founder Mr. Jiang's information, I have found it," Leilani Taylor's tone was full of disbelief: "This Mr. Jiang is definitely a genius in the field of electronic audio and video decoding technology, but this genius is simply an idiot outside of technology, for the VCD he invented and related decoding technology, he did not apply for a patent, and it was cheaper for Scooper!"

After a pause, Leilani Taylor said with some excitement: "Boss, do you know what this means? This means that this Mr. Jiang has given away at least hundreds of millions of dollars, which is incredible! I don't know whether to call him a saint or an idiot." ”

In the eyes of Leilani Taylor, Jiang Wanmeng's approach is not only stupid, but also an idiot!

In the United States, if any person or company invents a technology, the first thing they have to do is to apply for a patent, and this Mr. Jiang Wanmeng of Wanyan Electronics did not apply for any patents for the VCD-related technology he invented, which made Leilani Taylor exclaim: There is such a simple business leader in this world?!

Chen Geng sighed in his heart: Of course he knew that this was the result.

"Don't talk about that," Chen Geng waved his hand and said: "What I heard is that in September last year, when Mr. Jiang's first batch of VCD products went offline, all the 1,000 VCD products they produced were bought by competitors such as JVC and Philip for technical disassembly.

Leilani Taylor's resources are naturally incomparable to others, and she immediately nodded: "Companies such as Scooper and Texas Instruments have begun to register relevant patents one after another, but some patents are still being registered and applied. ”

"Then it's not too late," Chen Geng pondered for a moment, and said to Leilani Taylor: "Leilani, I need you and Mr. Chen Xiaoshan to go to Hui Province together, get the authorization of Mr. Jiang and Wanyan Electronics, and have a patent defense battle!"

You tell Mr. Jiang that as long as they agree to us to help them fight this patent lawsuit, we don't want them to pay a penny, and the only requirement is that they can use the relevant patents of VCDs...... Well, I will say hello to the relevant leaders of Hui Province in advance, and I will let you meet that Mr. Jiang as soon as possible. ”

For domestic enterprises in this era, they don't dare to imagine going to the United States, Europe and Texas Instruments, Scober Microsystems and Philips Electronics to fight a patent lawsuit, and they don't think they can win at all, but for Chen Geng, all this is not a problem, isn't it just a lawsuit, and their annual expenditure on this area is not less than hundreds of millions of dollars, just so as not to be bored by those litigants...... As long as you can get the authorization of Wanyan Electronics and Dr. Jiang Wanmeng, everything else is a minor problem.

"Okay," although she didn't understand why her boss attached so much importance to the technology of this VCD, Leilani Taylor immediately agreed, but after a little hesitation, Leilani Taylor still asked Chen Geng: "Boss, can I ask you a question?"

Chen Geng nodded: "You say." ”

"As far as I know, Sony and Philips seem to be working on a whole new generation, disc-based multimedia standard that is much clearer, and they're ready to work with Hollywood to roll out this standard to a broad standard worldwide, so ......"

"So you think that this standard of Sony and Philips is the global standard, I don't understand why I attach so much importance to Mr. Jiang Wanmeng's VCD with average definition?"

"Yes. Laylani Taylor nodded, that's what she thought.

"It's very simple," Chen Geng said, "Because Philips and Sony obviously didn't plan to take us to play, but I want to come in and play, in the case that others don't welcome us, what do you say we have to do to make the previous giants have to accept our existence?"

It dawned on Leilani Taylor: "Of course, we have mastered a hugely influential multimedia audio and video standard. ”

"That's right, that's it," Chen Geng nodded: "So, remember to pay attention to your attitude after meeting that Mr. Jiang Wanmeng, don't be domineering, what I want is to cooperate with Mr. Jiang, and I want to get the authorization of VCD-related technology as soon as possible, and I don't want to waste my energy in some irrelevant places." ”

Raylani Taylor understood, this is the boss warning herself not to put on a nostril-facing posture.

Speaking of which, Leilani Taylor really doesn't look down on Dr. Jiang Wanmeng, she always feels that such a stupid person who doesn't even know how to register a patent is not worth being so cautious, but now listening to Chen Geng once again emphasizing in such a serious tone that she must get Jiang Wanmeng's authorization as soon as possible, Leilani Taylor was suddenly shocked, and then realized that if she continued to maintain her previous attitude, it was very likely to delay the boss's major event, and for a while, her forehead was faintly sweaty, and she quickly nodded solemnly: " Rest assured, sir. ”

"Well," Chen Geng nodded, after all, Leilani Taylor was an old man who had been with him for a long time, and Chen Geng would not be too harsh, and told her: "Tell Dr. Jiang Wanmeng that we will cooperate with him in a wider range of fields." ”

PS: Sorry brothers, please wait a few minutes.
