057 Informal negotiations

Walking into Microsoft's China headquarters, Wang Zhengyu knew that there was a reason why the women around him wore so little. The central air conditioner of Microsoft China, which has deep pockets, is estimated to be uninterrupted 24 hours a day, and the room is simply warm as spring.

It's just that when standing in the Microsoft headquarters, the women around him have lost the smiling posture they had when they were in the car, and their demeanor became dignified and steady.

"Mr. Wang, please come here!"

Just when Wang Zhengyu was still admiring a few gold-inlaid letters in front of the hall of the Microsoft Research Building, Huang Siqi beside him made a gesture of invitation very decently.

"Where is this going? Didn't you invite me to visit the Microsoft Huaxia headquarters building? Wang Zhengyu muttered as he walked in the direction of the elevator guided by Huang Siqi.

"Mr. Wang can visit the headquarters building at any time, but the commissioner from Microsoft headquarters has been waiting for you for a long time, so why don't you go and talk to him first!" Huang Siqi said with a smile.

Wang Zhengyu nodded, he still understood the truth of the guest's will. Anyway, it's just a building, and no one will let him in if there are really secret places.

"By the way, Mr. Wang, how is your English level?" Standing on the elevator, Huang Siqi asked.

Wang Zhengyu touched his head and asked, "What?" Don't you specialists from Microsoft headquarters know Chinese? So what else is he coming to talk to me about? โ€

Huang Siqi was embarrassed again. I just felt that it was really tiring to communicate with Wang Zhengyu, but I had to quickly explain: "Mr. Wang misunderstood. I mean, if there's a language barrier between you, I'll act as the translator! โ€

"Oh!" Wang Zhengyu nodded, and suddenly asked, "I don't know what position your commissioner holds at Microsoft headquarters this time?" โ€

Huang Siqi was almost stunned by the out-of-the-box thinking of the teenager in front of him, and subconsciously replied: "This time I came to meet you with Mr. Terry Myerson, the director of the indos division of Microsoft headquarters. โ€

"The head of the Indos Division? Senior technical talent, he doesn't even understand Chinese? You have to persuade him to learn Chinese quickly, if you don't learn it, it will be too late! As soon as Wang Zhengyu's voice fell, there was a sound of "ding", and the elevator just arrived.

"You please!" Huang Siqi, who was already so thundered that he didn't know how to answer, hurriedly spread his hands again and invited. avoided the embarrassment of not knowing how to answer Wang Zhengyu.

Wang Zhengyu didn't care, and after stepping out of the elevator, he followed Huang Siqi without saying a word until he was taken into a small conference room.

"Mr. Wang, please wait a moment, I will go and ask Mr. Myerson to come and meet you!" After bringing Wang Zhengyu into the conference room, Huang Siqi owed slightly, then turned around and gently closed the door of the conference room, leaving Wang Zhengyu alone in the conference room.

"Huh! Sure enough, it's a world-class large company, and any supervisor is big enough! Wang Zhengyu sneered and muttered, and then began to look around the conference room.

I have to say that Microsoft definitely lives up to its title as a high-tech company, and even this small conference room looks very modern. On the left side of the door is an LED display screen, which occupies an entire wall. In front of the display, a variety of modern office equipment is neatly placed.

In the middle of the conference room is a creamy rectangular conference table for eight people, and at the other end of the room is a small projection equipment, a standard multi-functional conference room structure.

Wang Zhengyu nodded, although there are many slanders against Microsoft because of that video, but good things have to be learned, such as this conference room. Compared with it, the conference room of Tianshu Technology is shabby, which makes Wang Zhengyu embarrassed.

Microsoft didn't let Wang Zhengyu wait long, he just studied all the equipment in the conference room, and the door of the conference room was pushed open. Huang Siqi walked into the conference room with a tall Caucasian man.

"Hello, Mr. Wang, I've kept you waiting, this is the director of Microsoft's indos business unit I just told you, Mr. Terry Myerson!" Huang Siqi introduced Wang Zhengyu as soon as he entered the door.

โ€œhe11o๏ผโ€ Mr. Wang greeted Terry Myerson in one of the few words he knew in English.

โ€œhe11o๏ผŒnicetomeetyou!โ€ Terry Myerson naturally uttered a string of English and held out his hand.

Wang Zhengyu stretched out his hand and shook Terry Myerson in a friendly manner, while naturally looking at Huang Siqi and asking, "What did he just say?" โ€

Huang Siqi was stunned, and the simple sentence "I'm glad to see you" Any street aunt in the capital can probably understand, but Wang Zhengyu won't understand? Even if you don't understand it, you can guess what it means! He did it on purpose, right?

However, as a professional woman, she obviously couldn't complain, and could only translate with a smile: "Mr. Myerson is saying hello to you!" โ€

This time, it was Terry Myerson's turn to look at Huang Siqi with a puzzled expression, and asked in a fluent M, "What were you talking about just now?" โ€

Huang Siqi really feels like she's going to collapse this time, this kind of meaningless conversation is really enough. So after she briefly explained to Terry Myerson, she conveniently arranged for the two to sit down before Wang Zhengyu asked what the two said, and the two of them were pulling down in such a nonsensical way, she really didn't know how to deal with it.

Fortunately, after the two sat down, Terry Myerson quickly opened his mouth and cut to the point, so that Huang Siqi was not entangled in a bunch of chattering nonsense with the two.

"Mr. Wang, Mr. Myerson came to Huaxia this time to represent Microsoft and want to talk to you about your company's Longdun system business. He would like to ask if you are interested in selling the source code of your company's Dragon Shield system, as well as the corresponding technology patents, and Microsoft is willing to pay a huge amount of money to acquire them. Of course, this is an informal negotiation, and if the two parties can reach a preliminary agreement, we will have professionals to sign the contract. โ€

Wang Zhengyu was stunned, he really didn't expect a big company like Microsoft to fall in love with Longdun's chicken rib system. Sure enough, it is a large international company, it seems to be very bold, and it is a huge acquisition as soon as it opens its mouth.

So Wang Zhengyu asked with a smile: "Oh? Huge acquisitions? I wonder how much money this Mr. Myerson is talking about? โ€

After Huang Siqi conveyed Wang Zhengyu's meaning, Terry Myerson obviously didn't expect to enter the stage of bargaining so quickly, and couldn't help but think for a moment before saying a paragraph in English.

"Mr. Myerson said that Microsoft is willing to pay $300 million for obtaining the source code of your company's Dragon Shield system and the corresponding technology patents."

"Three hundred million? Or the dollar? So much, huh? Wang Zhengyu almost ran out of luck.

When Huang Siqi opened his mouth just now, it really made him look forward to a little bit of money, but what he didn't expect was that the huge amount of money in the mouth of this M country guy was only 300 million US dollars.

Not to mention the order just negotiated with the Ministry of Defense and the government, which gave him nearly $200 million in income. Let's talk about Apple, in order to let him open the copyright of the Ios version of the voice-activated smartphone, it gave 200 million US dollars, and no one else mentioned the source code at all.

He thought that Apple was unkind enough, but he didn't expect Microsoft to be unkind compared to Apple! Is this a robbery? Or is he really a turtle who has never seen money? $300 million is a huge amount of money? Do you really think that China is still before liberation?

So Wang Zhengyu's face changed quickly, and he continued to speak: "Beauty, you can help me ask this Mr. Myerson, we don't sell the Dragon Shield system, but we are willing to pay a billion dollars to buy the complete source code of the Indos series, and ask him if he sells it!" โ€

As soon as Wang Zhengyu's words came out, Huang Siqi obviously felt that there was a smell of gunpowder in the conference room. Especially the young man who seemed lazy just now, suddenly became serious, and even had a bit of momentum that she didn't feel just now, and hurriedly translated Wang Zhengyu's words completely.

"Mr. Wang, Mr. Myerson said to let you rest easy. Microsoft's offer is a deliberate offer that takes into account the market value of your system. Of course, this price is still negotiable, for example, we can also pay 300 million US dollars, but only ask for the source code of the Dragon Shield system. โ€

Sure enough, the negotiation method of the people of country M is direct enough.

"Since Mr. Myerson said so, let me ask first, how does Microsoft calculate that the source code of our Dragon Shield system is only worth $300 million? Can you tell him to tell me? Wang Zhengyu asked coldly.

"Mr. Myerson said that your company's Dragon Shield system must rely on our Microsoft Indos Windows system to survive, which greatly limits the value of the Dragon Shield system. In fact, for Microsoft, the Dragon Shield system is more like a parasite system. Of course, out of respect for technology and intellectual property, we are willing to pay some price in exchange for the source code of this system! โ€

"Parasite systems?" Wang Zhengyu smiled and asked: "Then I want to ask Mr. Myerson, if the Dragon Shield system is a parasite, then what is the application software based on a part of the code disclosed by the Indos series?" That's how you describe your partners? โ€

When Huang Siqi translated Wang Zhengyu's original words to Myerson, the Microsoft executive's face finally showed a trace of displeasure. Grunted out quickly.

"Mr. Wang, Mr. Myerson asked you not to change the subject. If you are not satisfied with the price offered by our Microsoft company, we can raise some of the price code, this is a negotiation of the two sides, please do not be rash! โ€

"Raise the price? Okay, let's talk about it, tell me your psychological bottom line, and see if it satisfies me? Wang Zhengyu said disdainfully.
