Chapter 397: Year-end report
readx; This time, the negotiation was relatively smooth, although it was still not an inch of land on both sides, and the onlookers were shocked to see the table and come and go. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info But after Deng Liang and the others were worried for a long time, the final result still made them all breathe a sigh of relief.
But this chaotic scene of war and chaos still made Deng Liang feel apprehensive after the basic negotiation results came out, and he only waited for the final bargaining on the details. When Deng Liang and Shi Lei walked on the campus of Wu University, Deng Liang said like this: The strings of both of you are too tight, we are all terrified, but fortunately, the final ending is not bad.
Shi Lei's answer was: "The old man can ask you to call me today, which proves that he is ready to accept the final result, but he is old and always likes to take advantage of face." I just didn't let him take advantage, why? I take the silver of the white flowers and still want him to press me on the momentum? ”
Deng Liang wiped a cold sweat, but it was not bad to think about Shi Lei's words. If Xu Kejia hadn't had the result in his heart, he would definitely not have asked him to call Shi Lei early in the morning, and he would have answered the phone as soon as it was called. Shi Lei's attitude is no longer important, the important thing is that Shi Lei grasps Xu Kejia's final bottom line, don't think about robbing while the fire is not a problem.
In fact, Deng Liang didn't know that at the end of the negotiation, Xu Kejia angrily drove everyone except Shi Lei out and said something to Shi Lei. Deng Liang asked Shi Lei, but Shi Lei waved his hand and said If the old man is willing to let you know the content of the final conversation, he will not drive you out, and Deng Liang can only stop there.
And the scene at that time was:
Xu Kejia's hair was all open, looking at his words and deeds were simply angry cerebral thrombotic attacks, slapping the table and yelling at everyone to get out, and then pointed at Shi Lei and yelled: "You kid stay, you little guy who doesn't know how to respect the old and respect the virtuous!" ”
Of course, Shi Lei didn't give up an inch of land, and he also roared at a high octave: "You old guy, old is old, virtuous is not at all, respect is mutual, don't expect me to respect the old if you don't love the young!" ”
Deng Liang and the others left the laboratory in disgrace, and after closing the door, Xu Kejia had a dejected expression on his face, his breath was uneven, but the volume was obviously lowered: "You stinky boy don't swear to stop if you don't make Lao Tzu angry?" ”
Shi Lei's nostrils turned to the sky: "Don't come with me for this!" You're not a dinner party, this is a business negotiation, I'll give you a little step, you kind of old guy will definitely kick his nose in the face, and you won't be fooled! ”
Xu Kejia's nose was angry, but he was helpless against Shi Lei, so he had to sit on the chair: "The definition and scope of stage surname technology, let's talk about it later, this doesn't make sense with a half-assed person like you." I can barely promise you anything else! It doesn't matter if the final technology is given to you, but you have to promise me that you must not treat my students badly, and they have not been easy in the past few years. ”
"Humph! Finally, you old fellow still have a little conscience, and know that your students are suffering with you. It is useless to say more, with their R&D capabilities, it is not a big problem to earn an annual salary of 200,000 yuan in most enterprises, but if they can enter companies like Huawei and Julong, if they are dispersed and lead a R&D team, the annual salary will be between 300,000 and 500,000 yuan. But if you put it together to form a team, the value will be reduced, and at best, it will be 300,000 a year. I give them 600,000 a year after taxes, you 1 million, at least 10% of the annual increase amount, there is special value I will consider at my discretion. As for the future, I don't want to make any guarantees, at least everyone who is with me at the moment, whether it is a technician or an ordinary worker, you can ask yourself if anyone thinks I have treated them badly. So far, only one of my companies has left the company, but I bet that even the guy who left would never feel that I had treated him badly. ”
Xu Kejia rolled his eyes countless times in a row: "Do you think this old man of mine is a fool?" If it weren't for some channels to learn that you are quite kind to your employees, you think I would put up with your stinking attitude? I'll have kicked you out a long time ago! ”
"You deserve it! If you had a better attitude, I wouldn't have said anything to you! Shi Lei also rolled back a few times, absolutely disdainful.
"I hope you don't play tricks with me on the three characters of the stage surname, otherwise...... Hum! Don't think I'm an old man who can't handle you! I'm already old, my only relative is in the United States, and I basically haven't seen it a few times in my life, so it's a big deal that Lao Tzu went into the coffin with these data! Boy, you remember it for me! ”
Shi Leili ignored Xu Kejia's threat, and ridiculed him: "I'm too lazy to play tricks with you, I'm definitely not as good as you in technology, but if you engage in conspiracy and trickery, you are not my opponent if you are ten thousand." I can get Song Yin to give way to the Caizi Group, just you? ”
Xu Kejia was laughed at by Shi Lei, and finally regained a little of his professor's demeanor, reached out and pulled the hair on his head that was more white than black, and said seriously: "You have been saying that what values my design the most is my concept." Tell me what you want from this system, and if I think it's appropriate, I'll join the development process. ”
Shi Lei is not polite, just open his mouth, for him, there is actually nothing new, nothing more than to piece together the better things in Apple's iOS system and Google's Android system, and discard the aspects of the two systems that are not close to human habits. Although it is only in general terms, it is more than half an hour to speak. Xu Kejia listened very carefully, but he was so anxious about the people outside.
"Some of the ideas are good, and the functional caste has indeed been enhanced, but there are some places where I am not technically sure if I can do it. The free download of firmware, like ordinary programs to update and upgrade, this technical difficulty is not small. As for multi-touch technology, this may not be overcome within three years...... You kid only know a little bit about technology, where do you get so many quirky ideas? ”
Of course, Shi Lei will not tell Xu Kejia that he is reborn, these are all technologies that have been realized after five or six years, but he just rolled his eyes: "You pure technicians, what you lack the most is imagination." But in the information age, in fact, you need enough imagination, and many seemingly incredible things in science fiction novels and science fiction movies may not be so incredible in a few years, the key is that you have to dare to think. I don't even dare to think about it, I will never realize the day when I think about it, I can't realize it, that's the technical difficulty, I don't dare to think about it, it's stupid! ”
Although Shi Lei said very politely, Xu Kejia fell into deep thought, and after a long time, the old man finally nodded heavily, and completely agreed with Shi Lei's statement for the first time.
"Imagination is indeed the stepping stone of information technology, and my old man agrees with you! You go back and document all your strange ideas, and if you have any new ideas in the future, you can also communicate with me in time, I may not adopt them, but if I think it is a good thing, I will definitely find a way to implement it technically. Within three years, I will definitely give you a perfect and leading micro operation system based on touch technology! ”
Shi Lei also nodded solemnly: "Old man, this system is to be applied to mobile devices such as mobile phones, which is of great significance to the realization of human mobile communication and mobile office and even mobile entertainment, perhaps, a hundred years later, your name will still be engraved on the monument of the human informatization process, this system must have enough compatibility and carrying capacity, firmware update is the most important point." In this way, even if the system we are not perfect enough, it can be easily updated by users without requiring them to have any programming knowledge. ”
Xu Kejia finally smiled, this was probably the first time Shi Lei had seen this old man smile.
"It seems that I was really too stubborn before, as you said, if you can update the system like an ordinary software update, then the perfection of the system does not need to be so harsh. You're right, the key is compatibility with surnames and carrying capacity, but don't expect me to make any concessions on the three words of stage surnames! ”
"Old thing! You'll die if you say something nice! Shi Lei slapped the table again.
This time, Xu Kejia did not get angry, but looked at Shi Lei and laughed, which was meaningful.
After laughing for a long time, Xu Kejia shook his head and scolded: "Bastard boy, the whole Wu Da, scolding me behind my back, there are a lot of people, but you dare to scold me directly in front of me like this, you are still the first!" ”
Shi Lei still looked disdainful: "You deserve it!" ”
…… In fact, Shi Lei is also correct not to tell Deng Liang and others about this paragraph, even if Shi Lei told them, they probably have a hard time believing that this is the truth, Shi Lei and Xu Kejia's secret conversation really seems that Xu Kejia is a bit cheap, in Shi Lei's later summary of the words, that is, "not to be scolded and uncomfortable"...... With the unanimous opinion that has been basically implemented, the rest of the detailed negotiations are purely technical things, after setting a large number of detailed terms and technical specifications to a point of exhaustion, Xu Kejia did not hesitate to take his students from Wu University to choose to resign. Because it happened to be the time when the school was ready to start the winter vacation, the school was very easy to let people go. Although it will inevitably lose some donations from the United States in the future, Shi Lei also promised the university that in the future, the Stone Group will donate the same amount of funds to Wudong University every year for its scientific research purposes.
This is basically a happy ending, although only half a month or so is the traditional Spring Festival, but Pingjing's R&D center and the North China branch of the Stone Group have also been structured, Xu Kejia is not concerned anyway, Deng Liang and others have long been accustomed to the old man's style, so there are no complaints, followed Xu Kejia to Pingjing in the north, stationed in the Pingjing R&D Center of the Stone Group, and became the first batch of the Pingjing R&D Center of the Stone Group will also be the backbone of the technical force in the future.
Han Xiaoyuan also fully demonstrated her rapidly mature management and overall planning ability, in Xu Kejia led Deng Liang and others to settle in the Pingjing R&D Center in less than a week, has been in their cooperation, the entire R&D center is basically equipped with technical force, although it is impossible to carry out effective research and development years ago, but this time is just used to let these technical personnel who will work together in the future to carry out concept and technical running-in. And for having such an old monster as Xu Kejia commanding the Pingjing R&D Center, Shi Lei also felt quite relieved. The old man has a strange temper, but against those tech nerds, the strange temper can get better results.
At the same time, Qin Mubei and He Cailan also came with good news in the United States.
Because of the sufficient technical strength, although the scale of the company is still a little too small, but thanks to the help of Professor Castro and his student Joseph who works in SEI, Qin Mubei and He Cailan have basically reached the intention of establishing a cooperative R&D center with Sun, Cisco and Moto after encountering a lot of contempt, which basically covers the three most important scientific and technological development directions of the Stone Group. The direction of cooperation with Sun is network computing and solutions, and Sun's core concept of "network is computer" is the direction of future information processing that Shi Lei has always believed in the most. The joint research and development with Cisco is naturally the core technology development direction of the Stone Group, the technological innovation of routing and switching, and network transmission. The cooperation with moto, is based on their strong strength in the field of wireless communications, you know, moto's reputation in China is mostly focused on their pagers, mobile phone manufacturing and sales, but in fact, moto's mobile phone is just a secondary business of theirs, their main business is actually more high-tech integrated electronics and wireless communications, the most cutting-edge representative is satellite communication, and the lower end is semiconductors and small radio stations (including mobile phones and intercom equipment), it can be said that Moto's wireless communication technology capabilities cover almost all the current wireless communication methods of human beings.
Of course, the cost of cooperation with these three companies is obviously quite large, but as Shi Lei said, at present, the stone group is only in its infancy, and the accumulation of two years, even if it is the crazy growth of wealth and the investment in technology, is not worth mentioning for the real old technology enterprises. To be able to obtain cooperative research and development opportunities with these three companies, Qin Mubei and He Cailan obviously put in a lot of energy. In Shi Lei's mind, being able to cooperate with these three companies in research and development, just the experience that can be learned, is worth all the ticket prices, not to mention, this also means that the stone group has finally extended its tentacles to North America.
The year is getting closer and closer, the annual statement of the stone group in 1999 was finally released, and the total turnover of the group in 99 years has reached a huge scale of more than 3 billion US dollars, which naturally caused the domestic media and technology peers to continue to be surprised, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it has caused an uproar.
However, Shi Lei felt a little embarrassed, because nearly seventy percent of the more than 300 million miles came from the business of Shengshi Communication after the merger of Genesis Media, which was in an absolute monopoly position. In other words, Shengshi Communication has brought more than 2 billion US dollars in sales to Stone Group, and the real main business of Stone Group is only more than 1 billion US dollars, which is still under the premise of signing such a giant as Unicom.
Fortunately, He Cailan's efforts in Russia and CIS countries and regions over the past year have made Shi Lei see that after entering the new millennium, the sales of Stone Group will inevitably have a qualitative leap, and the North American market is a solid ice, due to the cooperation with Sun, Cisco and Moto, which may no longer be so difficult to break, at least, if you want to try to enter the North American market, it should still be possible.
Another point that makes Shi Lei feel embarrassed is that the sales of more than 3 billion US dollars in exchange for less than 1 billion US dollars in profits, and these profits have basically been completely reinvested, especially the newly established North China branch and several R&D centers, which have almost exhausted the real profits of the stone group. Of course, because of the huge sales, it has also brought at least one billion US dollars of liquidity to the stone group, and most of these funds are a collection of various payments to be paid, but as long as these funds are still in hand, Shi Lei will continue to make great progress.
The last good news that Shi Lei gained in embarrassment was the two newly established R&D centers in Pingjing and Bianhu, because the technical strength of Stone Group is obvious to all, and under the premise of high investment, the R&D centers in Yanxian and Luohu are carrying out CMM level 4 certification at the same time, and also submitted an application for CMM level 3 certification in one fell swoop. And according to Joseph's private disclosure to Qin Mubei and He Cailan, the chance of passing is very large, as long as there are no major accidents, these two R&D centers will pass the CMM level 3 certification within half a year.
At the last group company meeting before the arrival of the Lunar New Year, Shi Lei gave the group's senior management a generous year-end reward, and told Duan Qinglai with a categorical attitude.
"Everyone has worked hard this year, but I think everyone will work harder next year. Especially Mr. Duan, in 2000, I hope to ...... No, not hope, but must be achieved, the sales of Shengshi Communication must exceed 4 billion US dollars, and the sales of the group headquarters, our flagship products, must also exceed 3 billion. If you can't do it, you are all ready to plead guilty to me, or even get out! It's reached, and I celebrate you! ”
This number sounds scary, but with the expansion of the group's business and production lines over the past year, and the fact that the situation in the European market has basically opened up, and even the North American market may break through the ice, this figure does not seem so difficult to achieve. Especially with the existence of the strange freak of Shengshi Spread, the top management of the group almost did not hesitate, and issued a military order by himself
