1060 Fruit Headquarters

Zhou Qiang's A321 customized by Airbus has been refitted, with a fuselage length of 4,451 meters, four doors on one side of the fuselage, two cabins carrying 185 passengers, and a range of 5,950 kilometers.

This type of aircraft is seven meters longer than the A320, which is commonly used in China, with more space, and is more comfortable after being converted into a private jet.

The A321 is quoted at 1.3 billion yuan, plus the cost of modification, nearly 1.5 billion US dollars.

When Zhou Qiang saw the modified aircraft, he felt that the 1.5 billion meters were worth it.

The space of the plane is very large, and the decoration is very luxurious.

The first thing that comes into view is a rotunda with leather sofas on either side and a coffee table in the middle.

Walk back into the corridor from the rotunda to the aircraft's lounge, with a 55-inch TV and comfortable sofa bed in the front, more seats in the back for meals or meetings, two 47-inch TVs on the wall at the back of the lounge, and a circular toilet full of personality at the back of the lounge.

Upon further opening, a master bedroom is presented with a bathroom and function areas such as a changing room and walk-in closet, refrigerator and safe.

Traveling on this plane is very comfortable, not much different from being in your own home.

Zhou Qiang took this plane to go to the United States to discuss cooperation with the fruit company.

On the plane, I talked about work, watched a movie, took a shower, and slept without feeling tired at all.

The location of this interview was set at the headquarters of California Fruit Mobile in the United States.

Zhou Qiang also wants to see for himself what the company with the highest market value in the world looks like.

The headquarters of the fruit is a ring structure, the shape is like a spaceship, the cost is 5 billion meters of gold, it is said that the fruit company in order to engage in greening, all the greening trees in the two states of the United States, resulting in other enterprises have no trees to buy.

When Zhou Qiang took the car and rushed to the Fruit Building, his first impression was very shocking, like a future technology building or an alien civilization.

The executives who walked with Zhou Qiang this time were, Fang Wenxiu, Pace, and Lin Hongbin.

After getting out of the car, Lin Hongbin looked at the fruit building stupidly, and said, "Dong Zhou, how do I feel a little weak." ”

"Me too. Pace nodded.

"With a market value of trillions of rice dollars, how many of them are not false?" Zhou Qiang said with a smile.

At this moment, a bald man with several staff members greeted him.

Pace reminded in a whisper, "This is the vice president of the fruit company, Galava. ”

"Mr. Zhou, welcome to Fruit Company. "Galava Road.

"President Jiawala, it's a pleasure to meet you. Zhou Qiang smiled and shook hands with the other party.

"Dong Zhou, I heard that you came directly from the mainland, and you are probably tired, do you want me to take you to rest and talk about work." "Home Wala Road.

"No, I slept on the plane, very energetic, let's talk about cooperation directly, after the talk, I have time, I also want to visit your company." Zhou Qiang said with a smile.

"No problem, I'll be your guide. Galava made a gesture of please, leading the group into the fruit company.

The interior of the fruit company is also very modern, without that obvious luxury, but it gives people a sense of elegance.

The meeting room is simple, with an oval-shaped white table surrounded by two rows of white leather chairs, which seem to be custom-made and comfortable to sit on.

The staff brought the tea and left the conference room, leaving only the negotiators from both sides.

"Mr. Zhou, we are very interested in the battery technology of Wittur New Energy, and we hope to enhance the relationship between the two companies through this negotiation. "Galava Road.

"That's what I expect from that. Zhou Qiang said.

"I heard that your company has reached a cooperation agreement with Warwick Company. "Galava Road.

"Your company is very well-informed. Zhou Qiang said.

"I would like to ask you what kind of cooperation you have with Warwick?" said Garawa.

"We license the new battery technology to Huawei Company, and Huawei Company has to pay a certain percentage of patent fees for every mobile phone it sells. Zhou Qiang said.

"What does a percentage mean, selling price, profit?" said Garawa.

"Profit. Zhou Qiang said.

"If you were working with our fruit company, would you do the same?" said Garawa.

"Of course, no one is the same. Zhou Qiang said.

"I don't know, what percentage of the royalties your company intends to charge?" said Garawa.

The profit of fruit mobile phones is much higher than that of Warwick and four-star mobile phones, and Zhou Qiang also feels that it is unrealistic to ask for 20% of the net profit as a patent fee.

"Fifteen percent. Zhou Qiang said.

"No, no, no, that's too high. "Galava Road.

"How much do you think is appropriate?" asked Pace.

"I think we can work together in a different way?" said Garava.

"What kind of cooperation?"

"I think our two companies can further cooperate strategically and bring the company closer together. "Galava Road.

"What kind of strategic cooperation?" Zhou Qiang said.

"Exchange of shareholdings. "Galava Road.

"Huh. Zhou Qiang smiled and asked rhetorically, "What do you think the market value of Wittur New Energy Company can reach?"

"One hundred and fifty billion dollars. "Galava Road.

"If you exchange shares, how many shares does your company want?" Zhou Qiang said.

"Thirty to fifty percent is fine, and we will exchange it for equivalent shares in the fruit company. "Galava Road.

Zhou Qiang showed a wry smile, the market value of the fruit is nearly one trillion, if the equivalent exchange of shares, the fruit is still the fruit, Wittur New Energy Company is not what Zhou Qiang said.

Zhou Qiang is not stupid, so naturally he will not agree to such conditions.

What's more, in Zhou Qiang's view, the market value of Wittur New Energy Company is definitely not more than 15 billion meters, as long as it can reach cooperation with major technology companies, just collecting patent fees every year, there are billions of meters, and the company's market value will definitely go all the way up.

"Wittur New Energy Company is not only a shareholder of me, and the cooperation method of exchanging shareholdings is too responsible, and it is estimated that other shareholders will not agree. Zhou Qiang said.

Although there are other shareholders of Wittur New Energy Company, Jiancheng Group is the absolute controlling shareholder, and Zhou Qiang can make his own decisions about Wittur New Energy Company.

"Our company, can we spend a sum of money to buy out your company's patent rights?" said Garawa.

Zhou Qiang shook his head, "Four Star and Huawei have both proposed this kind of cooperation, but we refused. ”

"If you follow the cooperation method proposed by your company, then the proportion of royalties charged must be reduced, and 15% is absolutely not possible. "Galava Road.

"How much do you think is appropriate?" Zhou Qiang said.

"One percent. "Galava Road.

Zhou Qiang frowned, "Are you kidding?"

"Our company's net profit is more than ten times that of Warwick. "Galava Road.

"That's not my focus. Zhou Qiang said.

"And what are you concerned about?" said Galava.

"What I care about is how much your company can increase the sales of fruit phones after using our company's battery technology. Zhou Qiang said.

"We use your company's battery technology just to hope that it won't be a shortcoming in this regard, and we don't use this new battery technology as a major selling point. "Galava Road.

"The world's mobile phone market, divided by fruit, four-star, Huawei, of which the fruit mobile phone has the highest profits, but the market share is not the highest, we expect to only cooperate with two mobile phone companies, the market share of the third mobile phone company, must be divided, each loss of a mobile phone market, the loss of 100% of the net profit, which is more important, I believe you should be very clear. Zhou Qiang said.

"Two percent. "Galava Road.

"Fourteen percent. Zhou Qiang said.

"Mr. Zhou, I hope we can show some sincerity to each other. "Galava Road.

"Me too. ”

"Four percent. "Galava Road.

"Ten percent. Zhou Qiang said.

"Dong Zhou, our company's mobile phone profit is at least ten times that of Warwick, you can't favor one over the other. "Galava Road.

Zhou Qiang touched his nose and said, "Eight percent." ”

"Five percent, that's our company's floor price. "Galava Road.

"Seven percent. Zhou Qiang said.

"Mr. Zhou, our company's mobile phone business had more than 40 billion yuan of benefits last year, and 5 percent of the patent fees were more than 2 billion million meters, which is equivalent to more than 10 billion people's currency, which is already a lot. Galava sighed.

The two sides had another stalemate, and Galava always bit the bottom line of five percent, no matter what Zhou Qiang said, the other party just refused to increase the price.

Fruit mobile phone is also confident, even if Zhou Qiang cooperates with Huawei and four-star companies, the patent fees that the two companies can give are not as good as the fruit company, he believes that as long as Zhou Qiang is a smart person, he will definitely cooperate with the fruit company.

The proportion of royalties was finally set at 5 percent.

After the talk, Galava breathed a sigh of relief.

For this new battery technology, the fruit company is also bound to win, but it does not want to pay too much price, and the five percent patent fee is equivalent to tearing off a large piece of meat from the fruit company.

Zhou Qiang also breathed a sigh of relief, and he was under a lot of pressure to negotiate business with the world's largest company in terms of market capitalization.

Zhou Qiang opened his mouth and asked, "Garava, is the computer business of the fruit company in your charge?"

The corners of Galava's mouth twitched, and he waved his hand, "It's not my business, this is not my business." ”
