1172 Crazy Thoughts
To be able to turn a company on the verge of bankruptcy into a huge company with a market value of more than one trillion yuan, and to be able to lead the development of an industry in ten years, Steve's firm will, indestructible confidence, and strong perseverance are naturally beyond doubt. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
But no matter how much he doesn't believe in evil, when the facts are in front of him, he can only accept them.
There is no way to falsify the time and date of the patent's grant.
But how could a stunning design made by the team led by himself be granted a patent in the field of design by JusticeF more than a year ago?
Steve didn't understand.
He racked his brains and couldn't figure out why.
But that's the case, no one can question the validity of patent documents in black and white......
Thinking that Steve might have fallen into self-denial and self-doubt, Fu Zhengyi quickly closed the laptop and dragged a chair to sit in front of him for fear that he would lose confidence and lead to serious consequences due to this blow. "Steve, don't be so frustrated, maybe it just happened. The purpose of my visit this time is not to destroy your confidence, I hope to be able to reach an agreement with Apple and you on some key matters, I really don't have the idea of dampening your confidence, let alone the idea of blackmailing you with a patent, so ......"
Steve slowly raised his head, very dazed. The company's current design is all carried out under my auspices, although the design is very easy to appear similar possibilities, but the design center not only collects MP3 players and [Yuyao Technology], but also all the manufacturers that are on sale, or ready to be launched, including South Korea, Japan, the United States and other MP3 player samples, for [Yuyao Technology] this has created the MP3 industry, And Sony MD player eliminated the company, the designers have studied its design thinking and design concept in depth, and even deduced the appearance design of [Yuyao Technology] no less than 20 models, but the design concept of iPod is completely different from the design concept of [Yuyao Technology], this is like a product designed by two people, even if the design ideas are similar, but there should be no such situation, the design of [Yuyao Technology] should not be like this......"
As he spoke, Steve couldn't go on.
No matter how many reasons he has, but the facts are already in front of him, where is he still qualified to defend himself?
"Steve, don't be like this, I didn't think about criticizing your design, let alone thinking that you were plagiarizing the design of [Yuyao Technology], the world is so big, there are no surprises, it's just a coincidence......"
"So ......"
"The patent problem is easy to solve, whether it is a buyout or a license, you can sit down and talk. Personally, I think it's far better to let Apple release this designed iPod than to let [Yuyao Technology] release similar products, but I hope that [Yuyao Technology] and Weizhi Technology can become Apple's foundry, share technology and market with each other, and jointly deal with the challenges of other manufacturers, which is what we need to consider now......"
Steve was stunned and thought for a moment before wondering. "Really?
Fu Zhengyi smiled and nodded, and opened his notepad. "This time I came here to talk about cooperation. But there are some things I think would be better to tell you about them first. First, the current financial market turmoil has already had a negative impact on the company, and the continued decline in the stock price will cause a blow to investor confidence, so I will continue to invest in absorbing funds if necessary, and the relevant statement will be issued in the near future......"
Speaking of this, Fu Zhengyi paused for a moment, and then continued when he fully understood what he meant. "Second, I hope that Weizhi Technology and Apple can form a strategic partnership, share each other's supply chain and sales channels, and jointly develop the global market. The technical cooperation can make the two companies closer, whether it is products, or management experience, personnel exchanges, market development, can do a lot of ......"
After listening to his story, Steve thought for a long time before he spoke. "You already own nearly 20 percent of Apple......
If we can reach an agreement on cooperation, I can conditionally grant you the voting rights of this part of the equity, improve your voice in the company, boost your ability to control the company, and let you no longer be restricted and interfered by the board of directors, how about it?"
Steve was completely stunned, and said after half a sound. "You're not kidding?"
Who is the main contributor to Apple's development?
And who can make Apple a 'great' company?
There are some things that can't be explained to Steve, but Fu Zhengyi believes that even if he still makes mistakes, Apple's future is still in his hands, if you don't want this company to lose its ability to grow due to external interference, early cooperation is the best choice, so Fu Zhengyi also smiled. "Steve, it's the first time we've met, and not understanding is the root cause of misunderstanding!"
Steve nodded slowly. "Well, until the legal obstacles are resolved, I can only say that if such conditions are not accepted, then the company's tolerance is too low......"
Seeing that Fu Zhengyi seemed to be relieved because of this, Steve's words changed. "But there is another problem, that is, whether it is cooperation or the boost of the company's stock price, I think the current board of directors will definitely block it, whether it is in terms of policy, or from those investors who have held the company's shares for a long time, you must be mentally prepared......
"If not, you can make an offer for the acquisition, and if not, you can privatize the company, in short, in a word, give wings to the imagination, not put shackles on ......"
Steve was stunned. "A tender offer? a complete privatization?"
"Yes, if anyone is not satisfied with the deep cooperation between Weizhi Technology and Apple, it is better to privatize the company. Apple's current total market capitalization is only tens of billions of dollars, give me two weeks, and the funds will definitely be in place......"
Steve rubbed his cheeks hard, took a deep breath, and smiled wryly. "Oh my God, even though I'm considered a billionaire and a rich man, I've never had such a crazy idea, and even when the board of directors expelled me, all I thought about was how to protect my rights and interests, how to give myself more money to start my own business again......
"Can I think that's a compliment?"
"Yes! and a heartfelt compliment," Steve chuckled, and then sighed a moment. "Well, I'll admit that I should say 'envy' is more appropriate......"
