Chapter 161: Angry Intel
Seeing that Wu Tao was not only not angry, but took the initiative to stretch out his hand, Brian couldn't help but shake Wu Tao's hand with great joy and said: "We are here with the sincerity of cooperation, and I hope Mr. Wu can give Intel a chance."

Wu Tao smiled at the corner of his mouth, and said secretly in his heart: "Since it is a big fish, of course I will give you a chance." But he said disapprerovingly: "Klenick, it's serious." It's all business cooperation, and there's nothing that can't be discussed. ā
"Yes, that's right."
Elon saw that the meeting between the two sides was harmonious, so he moved out of his place, walked to Straw's side, and joined in the testing of the high-energy battery.
"Mr. Wu, let me briefly introduce you, this is Justin from the R&D department. Ratner and his assistant Alan. ā
Wu Tao nodded, said hello, and then gave Tao Wenwen a look. The latter generously introduced himself: "I am Mr. Wu's secretary, Tao Wenwen." ā
After a brief introduction, Wu Tao sipped his coffee and watched Bryan sit in the position before Elon fixedly, and the corner of his eye noticed that Allen projected a slight contempt in his gaze.
It seems that the first assistant of the R&D department is still unwilling to buy Tianyu's technology, at least not as willing as it seems, let alone the slightest expectation and desire.
Since this is the case, Wu Tao simply fell silent. Leisurely stirring the coffee, as if it were more interesting than a $10 billion bill.
Compared with Wu Tao's calm and relaxed, Brian is not so calm. Because they finally got the opportunity to meet this time, if they can't reach a successful cooperation, Intel's stock decline trend may continue. He categorically cannot tolerate such failures during his tenure.
"Mr. Wu, we misassessed your technical strength and missed a good opportunity for cooperation. Now, through the research and testing of Tesla's self-driving technology, we have witnessed your strong strength and technology accumulation. Therefore, this time, I hope to be able to purchase and obtain the shared use rights of neural network multi-core architecture technology. After the company's board of directors decided to discuss the decision, we can fully accept 10 billion US dollars. ā
Wu Tao sat up straight, and his elite gaze swept over Brian and the others: "Mr. Klenick, I think you are mistaken. For the transfer of neural network multi-core architecture technology, Tianyu's intention has not changed. But in terms of price, we need to renegotiate. Ten billion dollars was our previous offer, but now that time has passed, it has lost its timeliness. ā
Brian's face couldn't help but froze, Justin looked more and more confused, and Alan was even on the verge of madness. Technically, when did Intel get so hostage from others?
Wu Tao ignored the other party's expression and said eloquently: "As far as I know, this morning alone, Intel's market value has evaporated as much as 10 billion US dollars out of thin air. AMD, which announced its cooperation with Tianyu, has seen its stock market soar. So Klenick, you and I should understand that now Tianyu's multi-core chip technology is the only special medicine to save Intel's stock market from plummeting. Of course, if you can overcome the problem of multi-core chip technology in a short period of time, it is a different matter. ā
Brian couldn't help but sigh, although he was angry in his heart, he had to admit that what Wu Tao said was the truth. And this kind of price increase that takes advantage of people's danger has not been done by Intel before.
So in the final analysis, this is not that Wu Tao deliberately can't get along with Intel, but a typical business negotiation routine. Any qualified businessman would do it.
Thinking like this, Brian's psychology suddenly felt a lot better. He patiently asked, "Then Mr. Wu, how much do you think the price is appropriate?" ā
Wu Taojing raised three fingers and said: "My idea is that for every multi-core control chip sold by Intel, Tianyu Company will receive a commission of 300 US dollars. What do you think, Mr. Klenick? ā
Brian couldn't help but gasp and looked at Wu Tao with a shocked expression.
In the short term, there is no cost-effective buyout of the 10 billion dollar buyout in this way. But with the development of this market, sooner or later there will be an explosion. At that time, Tianyu's annual revenue from Intel will be a staggering figure.
And Justin's cloudy eyes gradually brightened, and he could see that Wu Tao, who had no fear, seemed to have a back-up move.
But Allen jumped up angrily and said, "This can't be! IMHO, do you really think that without Tianyu's technology, our Intel would not be able to conquer multi-core chip technology? As long as we eat the manuscript thoroughly......"
"Shut up!" Justin, who had been silent, suddenly interrupted Allen's words with a cold drink.
'Manuscript? Wu Tao's heart sank, but on the surface, he spread his arms unconsciously, looked at the other party innocently, and said: "I have no doubt that Intel will conquer this technology sooner or later, as long as you are willing to raise tigers for trouble, because AMD has reached a transfer agreement with Tianyu." ā
Brian couldn't calm down for a moment, and Elon and Straw, who were busy with high-energy batteries, heard the sound and looked over.
Justin stood up and said, "Mr. Wu, based on this alone, Brian probably won't be able to convince the board. What's more, the market capacity of multi-core control chips is limited in the short term, and we can carry out technical research and get more complete multi-core chip technology before the market matures. ā
"The market is mature?" Wu Tao read these English words and said: "As of the time I got on the plane, Tianyu headquarters has received cooperation intentions from the world's major automobile manufacturers, and roughly according to the statistics, they will position about one-tenth of this year's production plan as electric vehicles or smart cars." Based on last year's car sales, that figure is about seven million. That's right, that's equivalent to seven million multi-core control chips. ā
Brian was already stunned, and he found that the rhythm of the entire negotiation was completely controlled by Wu Tao. And Justin, who was speechless, was stunned to realize that he had guessed that Wu Tao would have a follow-up move, but he didn't expect that his grasp of the entire market had reached such a precise point.
Allen couldn't believe his ears at all, seven million multi-core control chips per year, compared with Intel's total chip production capacity, it is indeed not large. However, the price of multi-core control chips is not comparable to ordinary chips. Therefore, the scale of 7 million pieces, the total output value is already a lot of money.
Such a market is not yet mature? What does it mean to be mature? If this trend continues, when Intel conquers the multi-core control chip technology, I am afraid there will be no place in the market.
Looking at Wu Tao, who held the technology in one hand and the nascent market in the other, Brian suddenly felt that Intel, which lacked bargaining chips, had no power to fight back, and there was no other way than to let the other party lead him by the nose.
