At the same time as the negotiation between Wells Fargo Energy and Samsung, Meng Qian received an invitation to the relevant state departments for an interview, and he was a little surprised by the news, what is the government looking for him at this time? However, Zong Yan had already expected that this kind of cooperation involving a wide range of areas would affect the rise and fall of the industry, and the senior management would inevitably pay attention.

"Does that mean the government wants to meddle in this business?" Meng Qian didn't understand.

"This is not a field related to national defense and security, it should not be, but it will affect a large number of practitioners...... Zong Yan stopped halfway through his words.

"And then?" Meng Qian waited for his analysis.

"Recently, the boss of our country visited South Korea, right?" Zong Yan looked at him.

Meng Qian seemed to understand, Zong Yan continued: "Samsung can be said to be a large group that affects the South Korean economy, although the rise and fall of the mobile phone business cannot destroy them, but the big loss is predictable, when the two heads of state meet, they will definitely talk about some areas of cooperation." ”

"That's what you want me to say?" Meng Qian understood.

"It should be." Zong Yan admired Samsung's ability, and from the perspective of business and politics, he judged that they were really nervous.

"I need to talk to a friend." Meng Qian was still unsure of the purpose of the high-level interview, so he called Liu Jianye and discussed this aspect with him.

Liu Jianye gave advice: "You just need to make your ideas clear, the government will not interfere with your choice, but your intentions will affect the leaders' views on this matter." ”

"Understood." Meng Qian got an affirmative answer, the government generally does not interfere in private business, in principle, they want to promote and promote everything.

So the next day, Meng Qian and Zong Yan went to the meeting.

At the same time, the news also reported the leader's visit to South Korea, in addition to the friendly exchanges between the two countries and the cooperation in the natural gas market, it really involved the technical and commercial fields, and also mentioned the development and recent situation of the electronic consumer industry of the two countries.

China's attitude is to support and promote, but the final outcome depends on the progress of the commercial negotiations.

Although the boss did not say what would happen, it does not represent the chain effect of the entire industry, because this time there has been a lot of cooperation with South Korea, and if it can be achieved, it must be the icing on the cake...... Invisibly, official pressure was formed.

……

But on the other hand, Warwick's emerged as a pioneer in the fight against pressure.

Warwick has been in contact with Wells Fargo Energy privately, and hopes that they will cooperate with Apple, why...... Samsung is an opponent who has hope to catch up, both sides are the same system, Samsung can play tricks, and Warwick can play the same tricks. And for Apple, it's a bit of a no-brainer.

When the large screen machine was prevalent, Apple's criticized small screen could still cause the frenzy of fruit fans, and the popularity and sales were not reduced, so Huawei was really a little confused about this opponent. Replaced by Samsung, it can finally be a large screen VS large screen, hardware VS hardware.

But what the hell is Apple?

From the level of competition and the difficulty of becoming a giant, Warwick wants to compete with Samsung, not Apple.

As one of the top technology companies in China, it plays a pivotal role, and Huawei also has influence on the government, although if Wells Fargo Energy cooperates with Samsung, it will be the icing on the cake for the boss's visit to South Korea, but it should hurt Warwick? They're not happy!

Therefore, the official pressure faced by Wells Fargo Energy has allowed Huawei to bear it.

On the surface, it is still calm, but Meng Qian, who knows the whole incident, is happy: "This teammate of Huawei is really positive, take the initiative to exert force." ”

Zong Yan can understand: "It is related to their mobile phone unification cause, and they must be attentive, and they even intend to promote our negotiations with Apple." ”

"What about the movement of the apple?" Meng Qian asked, Samsung has even used the relationship at the national level, and Apple, which is also a behemoth in the United States, will definitely not be idle.

"Cook may have to change his itinerary to visit China." Zong Yan said.

……

Apple is naturally not idle, in addition to their accurate business intelligence - that is, they can accurately grasp Samsung's quotations and trends, and on this basis, the price they provide in every contact is higher than Samsung's; They are also working on a broader business and political scale.

On the business front, Apple's increased cooperation with China will drive more fields, jobs, and more tax revenues. This is also the attitude that Cook has expressed to the official during his previous visits to China, and it has indeed led to many industries after the fact, and the results have been good.

Going deeper, there are also Chinese companies in the United States, because foreign countries are a mode of conglomerate economy and capital speaking, and big capital is influencing politics all the time. Therefore, behind the business, there must be politics, and there must also be pressure.

"I really dare to talk about the interests of Chinese companies overseas." Meng Qian admired that it is relatively obscure at home, but it is above board abroad.

Liu Jianye, who sat across from him, said: "If Apple loses tens of billions of dollars a year and its market value plummets because of the loss of this opportunity, capitalists will dare to do anything." ”

"Apple simply gave me billions, and the cooperation was done once and for all." Meng Qian was whimsical.

"Then they wouldn't be capitalists." Liu Jianye smiled, Apple is staring at Samsung now, they are out of 2.5 billion, Apple is out of 2.6 billion, a little better than you.

Meng Qian was disappointed: "I originally wanted to do a win-win situation, provide high-end models for the two companies, and let them handle the low-end by themselves, but Apple didn't agree to die." ”

"You can only choose one or the other." Liu Jianye said, "Don't forget that there is also the power battery, if we can reach a cooperation with Apple, it will make the implementation of batteries in the United States get more help." ”

"Now it's up to the price." Meng Qian understood.

……

Negotiations continue, and Samsung and Apple are also staging a "fairy fight" behind the scenes.

Meng Qian was tired of talking again and again, so he threw the work to his subordinates, and when there was actual progress, he would follow up.

Now he is considering other further aspects, and when the dust settles on the cooperation of mobile phone batteries, Wells Fargo Energy will prepare to enter a larger field.

Power battery.

The market is huge, the interests are crazy, and there is an absolute undercurrent. Even if new energy sources do not threaten the oil industry for 20 years, no one wants to sit idly by and watch their rivals grow. Even Meng Qian knew that he wanted to apply for patents first, so that his opponent had no way out.

Unless rich country energy only hides in the country and develops within its own borders.

But this mode of hilarity behind closed doors...... It was proven wrong a hundred years ago.

They could have conquered the whole world, but now they are hiding in the corners of the East?

This is not what Meng Qian wants, but he has no clue how to deal with it...... In the end, I can only start to be more realistic, go to the laboratory to study power batteries.

Different from mobile phone polymer batteries, power batteries require lower cost and smaller life, just like today's lithium-ion polymer and 18650, the former is dedicated to mobile phones, safe and stable; The latter is an electric car (such as Tesla), consisting of thousands of 18650s, which is at risk of being blown up.

Therefore, the new technology must focus on ensuring safety, and the lithium system is a bit difficult to move, but starting from itself and the protection board (system), it can still be improved by several levels. In particular, Tesla's first partner in the future is likely to be Tesla, and they are also very concerned about safety.

On the way to use his brain, Zong Yan called.

He reported on the progress: "Samsung is willing to continue to cooperate for five years and then increase the unit price, but Apple has not yet said that they may quote a higher price as is customary." ”

"Continue to pause?" Meng Qian asked.

"Samsung may be approaching the limit of its offer." "Apple has also used political influence, and the government says it won't interfere in our business, but it's actually paying attention." ”

"I see." Meng Qian knew that things were about to come to an end, although he wanted to squeeze three or four billion, but it was impossible, and capitalists were not stupid.
