Chapter 588 - Nokia's request for cooperation
"Nokia wants to take a stake in Snapdragon, and we're still thinking about it, and if they can guarantee a certain order, I think we can agree. Li Liyou stood on the stage, Li Yinan was bored playing with his mobile phone, and technology was the most suitable for him.
"Nokia, why did they choose Snapdragon?" Zhou Shi, shouldn't Qualcomm's S processor be their choice?
"It is said that the Android version of the phone has a higher praise from users than the Android version of the phone, and they believe that this is because of the processor, and it is also high-end, and Nokia does not want to lose this market positioning. Li Liyou gave his own guess.
MMP, it turned out to be porcelain marketing, this Zhou Shi learned from Lenovo, the means of pushing through the old and bringing forth the new, was actually remembered by Nokia, he really wanted to scold ten MMPs in a row.
"Do you think we should say no? Bear to know that Corntree is Spreadtrum's staunchest ally, but Nokia is not. "Zhou Shi
"This is also a problem that I have been thinking about for a long time, even if Nokia is allowed to take a stake, they can only be a minority shareholder, and the initial chips will definitely be supplied to Guoke first. Although Guoke is our ally, one company cannot be completely tied to another, and expanding the sales reach of Snapdragon is the most suitable choice for Spreadtrum in the long run. "Li Liyou
"Since that's the case, then this matter can be discussed, but let's delay it for a while, give the fruit shell at least half a year, and let it go on the market first. "Zhou Shi
"This is no problem, we can establish cooperation first, and then talk about it after both parties are satisfied, and then delay the progress, half a year will pass quickly, but can Guoke be listed within half a year?" Li Liyou said suspiciously
"It's okay, it's been a long time coming, but it's still a secret now, don't spread it out for the time being!" Zhou Shi
"Well, I understand. Li Liyou naturally knows the truth that "if the king is not secret, he will lose his minister, if he is not secret, he will lose his body, and if he is not secret, he will be harmed".
"But if they are sincere, try to promote this cooperation!" Zhou Shi thought of something and specially reminded him.
"Okay!"
Due to Zhou Shi's participation, the mobile smartphone industry has become unrecognizable, and if Nokia can survive tenaciously, he is not sure what the market pattern will become in the future. However, the second and the eldest compete with each other, and the first to suffer losses is often the third and fourth, which is not a rule, but a blow from the giants intentionally or unintentionally. There are many reasons why the apple and the husk can live in peace, and before it has time to hit the husk, the husk has already made it dare not strike. Both sides have nuclear weapons in their hands, and both can threaten the other, and as a result, neither of them dares to act rashly.
Now Motorola, the only major patent holder in the market, is about to die, and the financial market is turbulent because of this, and Galaxy Capital is also aware of it. Google, Apple and Microsoft all have abundant cash flow, and it is easy to buy Motorola, but not everyone has the courage to buy a $10 billion company for patents. Jobs is dying, Cook may not have the courage, and Apple's acquisition of Motorola is a bit wrong no matter how you look at it. Microsoft and Google are barely acceptable, it's not that Zhou Shi doesn't want to get involved, but he really can't spare the energy at this time, and he doesn't have the strength, except for a little trouble, it seems that he can't do anything.
With so many companies, who buys Nokia will have greater benefits for Guoke and Spreadtrum, Zhou Shi can't figure it out after thinking about it for a long time, and let the people of Analysys think tank analyze it, but there is no result. It can be said that whoever buys Motorola will not be beneficial to Zhou Shi. Let Motorola continue to survive, and he doesn't have the ability to do so. Unless he is allowed to take control of this company, and then make drastic changes, even so, the possibility of success is not great, the previous history of this company is too glorious, the engineer culture is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, stubborn, relying on the old and selling the old I am afraid that there are many, many people, of course, not understanding the Internet may be their biggest flaw. In the future, mobile phones will not only be mobile phones, why should Guoke arm itself with a useless use? This is to give consumers a more reason to choose you. Smartphones are a kind of life, and different brands of smartphones are a different pursuit of life. Just like the people who used Xiaomi in the previous life were more rational, the people who used Apple were very complex, fashionable, and vain, and the people who used Huawei mobile phones were driven by the rising national nature, "This is the most powerful technology company in China, and the quality of their mobile phones is good...... "Okay, Huawei mobile phones are good, but the quality is really not much better than that of Xiaomi and OV. In this era, it is unknown how many years a poor quality mobile phone brand can survive, but it is certain that it will not be able to be among the top few in the market. Zhou Shi prefers to believe that Huawei's mobile phone is strong, technical strength is part of it, and a good relationship with operators is also the key to it (Huawei telecom equipment is technologically advanced, cost-effective, and very strong overseas, if the mobile phone is bundled with telecom equipment, the operator will definitely compromise.) Of course, the specific process should be more harmonious and tactful), doing the right thing at the right time, that's all that matters.
It is difficult for the US imperialists to attack Huawei, whether it is to attack China's high-tech industry or Huawei's existence, or whether ZTE's existence has had a great impact on the Five Eyes Alliance's surveillance world. Does Qualcomm chip have a backdoor? Zhou Shi didn't know if Spreadtrum's strength would make the United States jealous? He also didn't know. Will Qualcomm's ability to do so seriously interfere with Spreadtrum's normal operations? Spreadtrum is a Chinese company, and the tone has long been set, unless he doesn't want to do it in China, otherwise Spreadtrum, which is registered in Bermuda, has always been a Chinese company, which undoubtedly increases the risk of Spreadtrum, but if Nokia can reach an alliance with it and can cooperate with some patents, the risk faced by Spreadtrum will undoubtedly be much smaller.
"By the way, Mr. Zhou, I heard that there is a cool thing in the Time Lab, when will it be released?" Li Liyou suddenly asked Zhou Shi
"Cool thing? you mean......" Zhou Shi thought for a moment, "Felix!
"It turns out that it's called Felix, what's the use?" asked Li Liyou curiously
"Felix, help me call Li xx's number!" Zhou Shi opened the mobile phone he took from Chen Wen's hand, and before he unlocked the screen, he showed it again. Then, Li Liyou's mobile phone rang......
"Wow! so powerful!" Li Liyou exclaimed again and again with Zhou Shi's demonstration!
"I originally wanted to let Time Android be released this month, but the current smartphone can't be upgraded directly, so it doesn't make much sense, so it's better to wait for the release of Guoke 4 to launch this feature together. And its voice interaction function still needs to be improved," Zhou Shi finally said, revealing a mysterious smile.
"Oh!" Li Liyou obviously didn't care what Zhou Shi said, picked up the mobile phone used in the demonstration just now to play, and Zhang Yinan was also attracted by this novel toy......
