Chapter 157: The results of the investigation are astonishing
After receiving a call from Jeff, Sutis was speechless for a long time, in fact, he has been under a lot of pressure recently, persuading shareholders to go all out to research and develop CDMA technology, and under his leadership, he has also made many achievements.
CDMA technology has its own uniqueness, and has significant characteristics in terms of good call quality, less dropped calls, low radiation, health and environmental protection. It is higher than GPRS in transmission rate and more mature than GPRS in new service bearing, providing more medium and high-speed new services. The transition from 2.5G to 3G is smoother than the transition from GPRS to WCDMA. CDMA network coverage is large, the system capacity is high, and the number of base stations required is small, which can greatly reduce the cost of network construction.
Only these R&D personnel know that analog technology is called the first generation of mobile phone technology, GSM is the second generation, and CDMA is the second generation and a half of mobile communication technology, which is more advanced than GSM.
After a long period of hard work, Qualcomm's CDMA system is about to launch a commercial system, and Sutis believes that as long as it enters the commercial field, the benefits will come, and the rate of return is amazing.
Well, now a Dahua company in China has made too many patents, and these patents have formed a barrier, Qualcomm wants to develop, but it can't bypass this barrier, originally thought that spending some money could solve the problem, now it seems that the other party is very clear about this aspect of things, and it is impossible to simply take it.
"I need detailed information about Geng Daming!" Sutis took a Chinese for the first time.
I have to say that Qualcomm's energy is still very large, and it didn't take long for a detailed material about Geng Daming to be placed in front of him.
At first, Sutis looked carelessly, and he really didn't take Geng Daming too seriously, but, looking at it, Sutis looked at it with shock, and looked at the secretary and said, "Is this information real?"
"Yes, it's true, and we got it through many channels. ”
"He wants the United States to have so much money?"
I don't know if I don't look at it, under this look, Sutis is really speechless, I thought it was just a simple character, nothing more than some inventions, and some cleverness, but now Sutis has to pay attention to this young man.
After a patent company got tens of millions of dollars, he invested in the securities market, and then, in a short period of time, his funds rose several times, and after several operations, now the funds he can use have reached billions of dollars, and recently there was another income in the account, and it turned out to be billions of income!
Don't look at Qualcomm as a big company, but, Sutis himself knows his own business, after spending a lot of money on the research and development of those technologies, they have bottomed out their funds, not to mention taking out billions, even if they take out hundreds of millions, they have to calculate carefully.
The idea of using money to smash Geng Daming is now completely ruled out, and he knows that in front of Geng Daming, the money he took out is useless.
"Notify the Board of Directors. Sutis had no choice but to inform all the directors of the situation.
Soon, the directors who could come arrived.
"We are holding a board meeting here today, and what we want to say is related to the life and death of our company!" Sutis said directly.
The directors all looked at Sutis and were shocked by what he had said.
"Sutis, what the hell is going on?"
"yes, it's that serious?"
"Ladies and gentlemen, as you know, we have invested heavily in the research and development of CDMA technology, and even purchased a lot of related technologies, so to speak, it is gambling, everything is developing in the direction we expected, our commercial system is about to be launched, as long as it is launched, we will be able to make a lot of money, which is enough to push our company to a height, unfortunately, now there is a problem!"
"Is it the trouble of the Dahua Company in Huaguo?"
"Didn't you send Jeff to solve it? The Chinese have never seen a lot of money, as long as they spend millions of dollars, they can buy any kind of patent. ”
Everyone laughed at this time, and sighed about the affairs of Huaguo, the current Chinese people have not seen the world, often very useful technology patents, they only need to spend tens of thousands of dollars to be able to win, they do not believe that a Chinese farmer will realize the importance of the patent in his hand.
Seeing everyone laughing there, Sutis said seriously: "Everyone, I am very sorry to tell you that Jeff's first round of negotiations failed. ”
The scene suddenly fell silent, and someone exclaimed, "Impossible, Jeff didn't hit that kid with a lot of dollars?"
"Jeff offered to buy all of the other party's patents for $500 million, and the other party refused!"
Five hundred million!
You must know that even they can't come up with so much money, if they spend 500 million, it is estimated that many patents can be obtained, and the Chinese farmers have not sold them, I don't understand this!
Sutis said seriously: "Everyone should know the situation, our commercial system will be launched, if Geng Daming's patent barriers are there, not only will it be difficult for us to develop, but also, if a company sees the prospect of this technology and cooperates with him, all our investment will be lost." ”
Everyone understands people, and naturally knows the relationship, if this is the case, then it is really troublesome, and Qualcomm may really fall, which is something that everyone does not want to see.
"What's that kid's opinion?" Finally, someone asked.
He said that it is possible to sell patents, but not to sell. ”
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and someone laughed: "As long as we can get the technology, we will not lose at most." ”
"Not only will we not lose, but since we are in the front, we will make a lot of money then!"
The atmosphere suddenly came alive.
Sutis smiled bitterly and said: "I haven't finished speaking, he has put forward a request, we need to help him build a chip production line, and help him train some technical talents." ”
"What?"
Everyone was surprised, knowing that there are many key technologies that the government is not allowed to sell to Chinese people, and this is a bit more difficult to do.
"His only condition is this, and since he wants such a production line, I believe that he will use it to make mobile phones, and if he produces mobile phones, there will also be some competition with us. ”
"Don't worry, we're not making mobile phones, we're just selling technology. ”
The meeting got into an argument, and everyone had a heated argument over money.
