Chapter Seventy-Six: Press Conference

Yang Lin smiled, this kind of news similar to the promotion of advertorials is very good for Matrix Digital, after all, being able to sit down with giants like Google and Apple has already proved the success of Matrix Digital.

I am afraid that there are only a few domestic industrial giants that can do this, Huawei and Lenovo, and as for Xiaomi, which has been in the wind and water recently, I don't know how much grade it is missing.

It is foreseeable that after this news is reported, it will be able to enhance the image of Matrix Digital to a large extent.

In fact, the idea of releasing contact with Google to the public through the media has been around for a long time, and two days ago, Yu Donghua planned to find a reporter to announce the negotiation between Matrix Digital and Google, but Page asked for a private conversation with Matrix Digital, so it was not done.

Now that he has no intention of inserting willows and willows, Cook's sudden arrival has given Yang Lin a chance to fish in troubled waters, and Matrix Digital has reached an agreement with the two giants, so there is nothing to keep secret.

"Mr. Yang, do you want me to reveal some more about the reporter?"

Yu Donghua said on the other end of the phone.

Yang Lin thought for a while and said with a smile: "Don't say anything first, let the reporter fry for a few days." Also, reach an agreement with Google and Apple on the charging issue of [matrix optimization] as soon as possible, and then hold a press conference to announce it! ”

"Okay!"

It turned out that Yang Lin's decision was quite correct.

Although Cook and Page left China the next day, the storm caused by the photo of them and the top executives of Matrix Digital appearing at the Sheraton Hotel at the same time intensified in the media.

In the eyes of outsiders, it is also strange that these two giants, who were supposed to be-for-tat, actually came together with Matrix Digital.

A day later, the photo made the front page of the New York Times with the caption:

War and Peace

Of course, in the eyes of the international media, the protagonists are naturally the two giants of Apple and Google, and Matrix Digital is only the lucky one who is favored by these two giants at the same time, but in the eyes of domestic counterparts, Matrix Digital has become a rising star leading China's mobile phone software industry.

Many people who hadn't heard of the app before began to notice its existence, and the 95% positive rating also led to a rapid increase in the number of downloads and installs of [Matrix Optimization].

In China, in less than a week, the installed capacity of [Matrix Optimization] exceeded 200 million, and in other regions outside China, the installed capacity of [Matrix Optimization] exceeded 300 million.

You must know that at this time, the number of smartphones in the world is only one billion, and the number of smartphones in China is 360 million.

From this, you can imagine the popularity of [Matrix Optimization].

Some optimistic Chinese media outlets have even gone so far as to assert that China will give birth to a world-class software company.

At the same time, the negotiation team sent by Apple and Google also officially arrived in Jiangcheng, and together with Matrix Digital, the three parties negotiated the future charging issue of [Matrix Optimization].

Apple naturally hopes that the higher the charge of this APP, the better, so that the impact on the iOS system will be smaller and smaller, Google is just the opposite, the price is too high will inevitably affect the number of installed [matrix optimization], and it will also make it difficult for the Android system to maintain an advantage in front of the iOS system.

On the first day, the negotiations between the two companies almost broke up, but fortunately, Yang Lin was in the middle to reconcile, and the negotiations between the three parties barely proceeded.

After a whole week of difficult negotiations, the three parties finally agreed that [Matrix Optimization] will be upgraded in one month, and the upgraded [Matrix Optimization] will expand some functions to provide users with antivirus, firewall and other services, and at the same time, Matrix Optimization will also start charging services.

The annual fee in Chinese mainland is 24 yuan per year, and 2.5 yuan per month if paid monthly.

In Europe, the United States, Japan, South Korea and other regions have a flat annual fee of $10, and they are paid monthly for $1 per month.

Such pricing will inevitably scare off some users, but even if the installed base drops by half, [Matrix Optimization] can bring nearly $200 million in profits to the new company every month, not to mention that with the further promotion of smartphones, the installed base of [Matrix Optimization] is still very worth looking forward to in the foreseeable future.

Google, Apple and Matrix Digital reached an agreement and formally signed the agreement.

The three parties will formally establish a joint venture Matrix Optimization Technology Co., Ltd., in which Google and Apple will each hold 30% of the shares, and Matrix Digital will hold 40% of the shares.

The new company will have Donghua as the CEO and legal representative, and Apple and Google will send two executives as vice presidents of Matrix Technology Co., Ltd.

The preparation of the new company is also on the right track, although the public is not clear about the specific situation of the negotiations between Matrix Digital and Google and Apple, but the Jiangcheng city government is well aware of this.

Especially with Lin Zhiguo's attention, the registration of the new company has received strong support from the Jiangcheng City Government.

All kinds of formalities were completed in less than half a month.

……

Yangcheng, in the office building of "Nandu".

"Xiaohu, come here, you go to Jiangcheng tomorrow!"

Editor-in-chief Zhao Zhiqiang called Hu Jia to the office and handed her an invitation letter.

Hu Jia was slightly stunned, the invitation was red as a whole, and the logos of Matrix Digital, Apple and Google were on the outside.

Since Hu Jia exposed such a big news in Jiangcheng last time, there has been a period of time when news about matrix digital has been flying all over the sky.

Although Cook and Page later returned to the United States, coupled with the silence of Matrix Digital, the news about Google and Apple to acquire Matrix Digital gradually faded.

But Hu Jia has not relaxed his attention to Matrix Digital.

She never expected that she would receive an invitation letter from the other party, and there were logos of Matrix Digital, Google, and Apple outside the invitation.

Hu Jia hurriedly opened the invitation and looked at it.

Inside is a text:

Dear Ms. Hu Jia,

At 10 a.m. on January 25, 2013, Matrix Digital, Google and Apple will hold a press conference in the conference room lobby on the 10th floor of the Sheraton Jiangcheng Hotel.

This conference will announce the major cooperation between Matrix Digital Technology Co., Ltd. and Google Inc. and Apple Inc., so stay tuned!

CEO of Matrix Digital Technology Co., Ltd.: Yu Donghua

Hu Jia closed the invitation with glowing eyes, looked at Zhao Zhiguo and said, "Editor-in-chief, this is big news, is it really up to me?" ”

Zhao Zhiguo smiled slightly and said: "You did a good job last time, and the news related to Matrix Digital will be up to you for the time being!" ”

"Yay! Thank you, Editor-in-Chief! Then I'll go and prepare first! ”

Hu Jia's face was flushed with excitement, and he hurriedly rushed out of Zhao Zhiguo's office.

Zhao Zhiguo shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's really a little girl!" ”
