Chapter 643: Alliance VS Tribe
No business competition can be completely divorced from reality, just like the competition between huge companies and Motorola, in addition to the alliance formed by Guoke and Microsoft, and the tribe formed by Apple and Google, there are also many international consortia joining. Even Huaxia Capital, such as Lenovo's Hony Capital, has joined, but Microsoft disagreed, and they had to set up their own acquisition team, that is, a soy sauce player. Under everyone's tacit understanding, the stock price of motorcycles can be regarded as stabilizing, and with so much big capital joining, even with Zhou Shi's brain cells, he can come up with seven or eight ways to kill the opportunists. At most, everyone will not buy it, wait a few years, or buy Motorola's patent at a premium......
The reason why Shell Apple can acquire a large number of shares in a short period of time is mainly because it has been prepared for a long time, and many share transfers are negotiated in advance. Otherwise, such a huge share and capital flow would not have been unscathed.
Microsoft withered when the tribe of Google and Apple offered Motorola more than $20 billion, a price that significantly exceeded their expectations, and now Microsoft has bought Skype for $8.8 billion. If the bidding continues, Microsoft's spending will definitely exceed 10 billion dollars, for the sake of whether Motorola's patents are worth it? Different people will have different answers, such as Guohu, will definitely say that it is not worth it. For example, Apple and Google must think that it is acceptable, without communication patents, there will be a big problem for their development, rather than the company's development is limited, it is better to buy a future for themselves when there is more money. As for other consortia, it depends on whether they really have the courage to take over Motorola, and if they have the confidence to do a good job in this company, the market value of $20 billion is really not expensive. Guoke is now stumbling, and its market value is still between 600~70 billion US dollars. Although Motorola has a lot of debts and historical burdens, the brand value accumulated over a long period of time is actually much louder than that of Guoke! The reason why Guoke is difficult to surpass the sales of Apple's IPhone in any case is largely because of the lack of brand accumulation, even if there are superstars like McJackson and Ronaldo Kobe, they can only occupy an advantage in the Chinese market. This is still the result of Guoke's unremitting advertorial marketing, naval propaganda, patriotic marketing and price advantage, otherwise it will be properly given up with the urine of the people. After all, even the useless use that has been widely praised overseas has been questioned by many people, and many insulting titles have been attached to the husk.
Motorola was eventually acquired by the Tribe at a price of $68, or about $21 billion, and Shell not only did not make a profit in this acquisition, but made more than $2 billion. The details have not yet been finalized, but the outcome is already doomed. Several companies have also made a number of current and future patent deals because of mutual compromises. The reason why Microsoft and Guoke didn't choose to knock hard is because they have more options.
Nokia is still the hegemon of the mobile phone market this year, with a market value of around $20 billion (MD, now that I think about it, it seems that the market value of Guoke is too high, which is a little unreasonable?). However, sales of feature phones continued to decline, and smartphones still lacked growth under the impact of the iPhone and Guoke. In addition, they did not want to give up Symbian, and they were hesitant about Google's Android and Time's Android, and launched three systems of mobile phones. The complexity of the product line, the optimization of the operating system is naturally not in place, and the difference in operational ideas, even with Rubinstein joining, it has not changed much, but has expanded the loss. The more successful a company is, the stronger its internal traditions, and to paraphrase a competitive sports proverb, the successful ones don't need to change...... Nokia is in this position, the market is changing so fast that their minds can't react.
Microsoft has been eyeing Nokia for a long time, otherwise there would not have been that famous Trojan horse incident, and if it weren't for the sudden rise of Guohu, they might have succeeded a long time ago. This cooperation with Guoke involved Spreadtrum Communications and Time Android, and also brought Nokia to the sight of both parties.
"So Microsoft is very interested in Nokia?" Zhou Shi looked at Feng Xing and Carly Fiorina, who had come to the United States again to report to Zhou Shi about the acquisition.
"Yes, they want to ......," Carly Fiorina said, Microsoft is really not a good thing, and Zhou Shi can know that there is a lot of stuff in it even through Carly Fiorina's relay.
"One thing I think you must understand is that Time Company is not only a shareholder of Guoke, but also the most beneficial support for our long-term development, at least for now, I have not thought about making Time public, so our cooperation will last for a long time. Sometimes we can make sacrifices for the sake of time. Therefore, this cooperation tries to ensure the interests of Time Android, including Microsoft's licensing and patent cooperation with Time Android!" Zhou Shi, he said this mainly to Carly Fiorina, Feng Xing knew from the beginning that without the support of Time, Spreadtrum, etc., Guoke would not be where it is today.
"I understand that Google Android can't look the other way we can than Time Android. "Carly Fiorina
"In addition, don't worry about Microsoft, your cooperation with him will not involve anything else, and the Guoke mobile phone will not use Microsoft's mobile system for the time being, or you can delay this time as much as possible......" Zhou Shi
"Is this appropriate?" Feng Xing
"It's normal, Microsoft is already a behemoth now, and a more powerful Microsoft is not good news for us, or for any high-tech company!" Carly Fiorina explained, Microsoft's monopoly and the all-encompassing in the development process are not mentioned by many people now, ordinary people can be impressed by Bill's generosity, but entrepreneurs who have experienced this history will not forget their former arrogance.
The development of no enterprise is very clean, and in the previous life, Facebook was similar to a penguin, all of which were copied and copied, copycats and copycats. However, one is an international large enterprise, which naturally has a well-known favor in China. One is a local enterprise in Huaxia, Xiao Ma doesn't seem to have a background in studying abroad, and he is just a turtle, so naturally there will be more criticism. It is said that Robin Lee is even more shameless, but why is it that most of the time it is Brother Xiaoma's infamy? Turtles are not necessarily a good thing, after blocking Google in China, Baidu has successfully allowed Chinese people to spend more time searching year by year, and the efficiency of search is declining year by year, consuming the lives of many Chinese people.
"No matter what Microsoft thinks, first of all, we will ensure the patent issue of Time Android, and then the patent accumulation of Spreadtrum and Guoke mobile phones. "Zhou Shi, Nokia's life or death is none of his business, and he doesn't have to worry about whether Rubinstein will be implicated.
