Chapter 687: Several parties wrestle
On the Nokia side, Li Guangyu made a big mistake, because he focused his attention on Motorola from the beginning, and because the popular big brother in Xiangjiang was produced by Motorola in the previous life, and Nokia was the first mathematical mobile phone in 92 years to start emerging.
This has led Li Guangyu to always think that Nokia's mobile phone appeared much later than Motorola, and Lokia is not as high-profile as Motorola, they have developed the first mobile phone this year, but it has not yet been listed, and they have not carried out extensive publicity.
In addition, Li Guangyu and Du Yuemei didn't pay too much attention to it, so they didn't know too much, so Qin Yu and He Jin learned the news when they negotiated with Doel Norwich, the president of Lokia, after they went to Nokia City, Finland.
This directly disrupted Li Guangyu and their plans, they were going to directly acquire all their mobile phone research and development technology, and it was best to dig up the relevant talents, those who were willing to go to Xiangjiang went directly to Xiangjiang, and those who were unwilling to directly enter the research laboratory of British Telecom Group.
Now that Nokia's mobile phones have been developed, and its senior management also attaches great importance to the mobile phone industry, it will not be easy for them to acquire these technologies.
However, the good news for the Lee consortium is that the Finnish market is too small, and Nokia is obviously reluctant to shrink the Nokia mobile phone market in such a small place, and this is their opportunity.
After listening to He Jin's report on the phone, Li Guangyu said to him: "You try to negotiate a technology buyout with Nokia's top management, if not, talk about technology licensing, and at the same time let them know that the young head of Motorola is still in Xiangjiang, and Motorola is currently pinning its hopes on opening the Asian market, and we have a broad channel here to help them sell mobile phones." ”
Mobile phones are not only mobile phones, you also need the cooperation of telecommunications companies, otherwise only mobile phones, telecommunications companies in various regions are not equipped with signal towers, do not let your brand mobile phones access the network, this is still in vain.
Doyle Norwich is also very aware of the disadvantages of his company compared to Motorola, their Finnish market is too small, compared to the American market is not at all a grade, and it is impossible for them to compete with Motorola in the American market at the moment.
Look at Motorola, it has been developed for so long, and it is still not officially sold to the outside world, and they Lokia will not be able to enter that market before the development of Motorola mobile phones.
He has long had a deep understanding of the Li consortium, and at present, as their main opponent, how could they not pay attention to the movements of the head of Motorola.
The Li consortium not only monopolizes the telecommunications business of Hong Kong, but also occupies a 50% stake in the British Telecom Group, once their company can reach a cooperation agreement with the Li consortium, their mobile phones can smoothly enter these two markets.
And they are also aware of the influence of the Lee consortium in Treasure Island and Southeast Asia, and at the same time, British Telecom Group is easy to expand in the Commonwealth region, and their own market will spread all over these regions at that time.
He also knows that he can't be too anxious now, and since the Li consortium has sent someone to negotiate with him, it seems that the negotiation between the other party and Motorola is not too smooth, and he can take some initiative in this.
Of course, he also knows very well that his company is likely to be a bargaining chip in the negotiation between the Li consortium and Motorola, after all, the Li consortium has always been committed to cooperating with Motorola.
He does not want to see the Li consortium and Motorola reach a cooperation, in that case, his company will be isolated from the American and Asian markets, and for a long time in the future, he may only be able to shrink into the Nordic market.
With the small market of Northern Europe, it is simply unable to support the development of the mobile phone sector, and he desperately hopes that Nokia can go out of Finland and into the world, becoming a multinational global company.
In this regard, Nokia needs to cooperate with the Lee consortium, and Doyle Norwich is also thinking about what concessions he can make.
Bob Galvin, who was in Xiangjiang, also got the news that the senior management of the Lee consortium had gone to Nokia, Finland, which he saw on the Xiangjiang News that although he did not understand Cantonese and Chinese characters, his temporary assistant did.
Jiayi TV and Xiangyu Daily reported on He Jin, vice president of Xiangjiang Telephone Group, who went to Nokia, Finland, He Jin's identity is too special at the top of the Li Foundation, she used to be Li Guangyu's housekeeper, and her family has been serving in He for several generations, this time He Jin personally went to Finland, it can be seen that Li Guangyu attaches great importance to this.
Bob Galvin knows Nokia much more clearly than the Li consortium, and this time he also feels a lot of pressure, once the Lee consortium and Nokia reach a comprehensive cooperation agreement, it is unlikely that they Motorola will enter this market in the short term.
He knew that the reason why the media of the Li consortium reported a lot on He Jin's trip to Lokia was to put pressure on Motorola, hoping that his side would make concessions on some issues, so that the Li consortium could enter the mobile phone industry.
Now that the problem is getting more and more complicated, he can only report this matter to his father, Robert Galvin, hoping that the company's senior management can come up with a plan as soon as possible.
After listening to the report, Robert Galvin pondered for a while and said: "Bob, you don't need to be too anxious, this time is the time to compete for patience, I believe that Nokia will not easily let their technology be used by the Li consortium, they should know the strength of the Li consortium, once they enter the mobile phone market, we companies in Asia will not have a good time." ”
Bob said: "But Nokia is obviously more eager to enter the Asian market than we are, and their market is too small, and this kind of thinking will make them think that it doesn't matter if some technology is licensed to the Lee consortium, they can at least collect royalties on the Lee consortium." ”
Bob Galvin is well aware of Noki's weaknesses, unlike his own company, which has a market as large as the United States to exploit. Nokia is based in Finland, and their domestic market is limited, which is simply not enough to support their mobile phone division.
This time, the Li consortium came to the door, and they would not let go of this opportunity. Nokia is currently their biggest rival to Motorola, and every time they occupy an extra part of the market, it means that their company will lose a part of the market, and he does not want to see the Lee consortium and Nokia reach a cooperation.
Robert is very clear that at present, there are some bad things for Motorola, they have not applied for access to the network in the United States, and the construction of telecommunications base stations has not yet begun, if the Li consortium and Nokia reach a cooperation, with the financial resources and efficiency of the Li consortium, Xiangjiang is likely to become the first city in the world to let mobile phones be commercialized.
The Lee consortium has never been short of funds, and in a small area like Xiangjiang, they were soon able to set up a city-wide base station so that mobile phones could be used in various parts of the city.
Robert also knew that he needed to communicate well with the top management, and the agreement between the Lee consortium and Nokia would be a huge disaster for Motorola.
