Chapter 1331: Motorola, Are You Playing With Me?
readx;?“ Are you sure you want to hear about my conditions? Lin Zheng looked at Edward with a smile. Jender: "Let me say sure, of course, but Motorola has to do what I ask me to do when I say that." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Edward, who finally calmed down. Jander, only to feel a wave of anger rushing to his head: Nima! Are you really here to negotiate? Are you sure you're not here to smash the field? But Edward. Jander is Edward after all. Zhan De looked at Lin Zheng with a disappointed expression, and said with a tangled expression: "Lin, I thought we were already friends." ”
"Yes, we are indeed friends," Lin Zheng nodded, although he had been with Edward in the past. Jander doesn't deal with many times, but strictly speaking, he and he are indeed "not very familiar friends", but friends in this relationship are really just friends, and if you want to use this kind of friendship that is also a nodding friend to trap yourself, or Edward. Jander is too simple, or he is too overestimated Chinese importance of his friends: "But you Americans have a saying, called 'business is business, friendship is friendship', and we also have a saying in our Chinese, called 'not in his position, not in his politics', if you come to chat with me today in a private capacity, of course I am very welcome, but ......"
Speaking of this, Lin Zheng shrugged: "Now it seems that it is not. ”
Edward. Jander didn't expect Lin Zheng to say so directly, and he was speechless for a while, when Chinese talked about friendship with Motorola, Motorola talked about business with others, and now retribution is coming, Motorola wants to talk to people, and it is the turn of others to talk about business with Motorola.
"Okay," the initiative was in the hands of Lin Zheng, Edward. Zander didn't have much to do, and said depressedly: "So, what do you want?" ”
"I want a patent ...... for Motorola"
"It's impossible," without waiting for Lin Zheng to finish speaking, Edward. Jander interrupted Lin Zheng angrily: "Lin, you should understand that patents are Motorola's most valuable asset. Don't talk about me, even if there is any chairman, he won't dare to talk to you about this...... Forest. If you really want to talk, please show some sincerity. ”
Lin Zheng pursed his lips.
Of course he knew about Edward. Zander is right that patents are indeed one of Motorola's most valuable assets, with Motorola now owning about 16,500 patents. Another 7,000 or so are under review, the most valuable of which are those related to cellular radio technologies such as 4G high-speed data transmission, which is Motorola's hope, and it is impossible for them to give this part of the patent to Lianchuang Technology unless Motorola's top management is collectively pumping.
But...... Lin Zheng didn't count on Edward either. Zander was able to agree to this condition, and he said lightly: "I'm talking about patents in semiconductors. ”
"Semiconductors?" Edward. Jander was stunned for a moment. Then he looked at Lin Zheng with a funny face: "This is impossible." It is simply impossible for the US government to approve it. ”
"I know," Lin Zheng said calmly, "So we need some workarounds." ”
Understood what Lin Zheng meant, Edward. Zander's face changed suddenly: What is a workaround? It's clear that this bastard wants to take away Motorola's valuable assets without spending a penny! Taking a deep breath, Edward. Zhan De said: "Lin, I think I came with sincerity, but I am very disappointed by what you did, I don't see where your sincerity is at all. ”
"Of course, we also came with sincerity, and the fact that I can come is sincerity in itself. Please remember that the war was started by Motorola, and Motorola can choose when to start the war, but when to end the war and what the outcome of the war will be is not up to Motorola to decide. Lin Zheng looked at Edward without giving in. Jander's tone was light, but this light tone reminded Edward all the time. Jane had a very painful fact: Motorola started the war, but sadly, Motorola was not the winner of the war.
"So you're going to dismember Motorola? Lin, I need to remind you that Motorola is at a disadvantage right now. But we're not something to be slaughtered, and we're not going to fight back, and if you have to start a war, Motorola ......"
"Then you fight back." Not waiting for Edward. After Jander finished speaking, Lin Zheng said indifferently.
This is too faceless, like a slap in the face, top Edward. Jander almost didn't catch his breath.
Yes, fight back, you have the ability to fight back, but ...... Motorola has not fought back, and even once united with one of China's largest channel providers: Gome Electric, wanting to directly cut off Lisheng mobile phones from the channel, but what was the result? For Motorola, if it could fight back, it would have fought back a long time ago, so why wait until today? If Motorola could fight back, would there be this meeting today?
Resisting the urge to throw his sleeves away, Edward. "We are willing to admit our previous mistakes, and we can lobby Congress to lift the ban on Chinese mobile phones and personal computer products, and I think that should satisfy you, right?" ”
Convincing Congress to lift the ban on Chinese mobile phones and personal computers? Lang Xuan looked at Lin Zheng slightly: With such a good condition, he should agree to it, right?
But Lin Zheng's approach surprised Lang Xuan, and he slowly shook his head: "For me, this is actually not important. ”
"It doesn't matter?" Edward. Zander opened his mouth and looked at Lin Zheng blankly, and began to wonder if there was something wrong with his ears: he actually said that this was not important?
"It really doesn't matter," said Edward. With Zander's surprised gaze, Lin Zheng explained to him: "The U.S. market is actually an extremely exclusive market, even after the ban is lifted? Will personal computer brands such as Combo, Dell, and HP use their various resources to desperately block Chinese companies? Will the U.S. government use its public power to stumble Chinese companies? The media, which has a stake in U.S. business, will not desperately advocate the ...... of U.S. business."
Hearing Lin Zheng say that the U.S. market is so bad, Edward. Zhan De couldn't help it, interrupted Lin Zheng's words, and said, "So, are you planning to give up the United States, the world's largest personal computer and mobile phone market?" ”
"To be correct, it is the second largest in the world, and the world's largest market for personal computers and mobile phones is China," Lin Zheng said very disagreeably to Edward. "Of course we want to, but we won't beg the U.S. government to do it, on the contrary, our goal is to make the U.S. government beg us." ”
"......" Edward. Zander was stunned by Lin Zheng's words, and couldn't believe that these words actually came from Lin Zheng's mouth, so that the U.S. government begged them? Is this guy crazy?!
"What? Unbelief? "Look at Edward. Jander looked at himself as if he was looking at a madman, Lin Zheng smiled casually, but his words were as sharp as a knife: "Mr. Jander, you came to me this time, is there no factor on the side of the US government?" ”
Edward, who wanted to say something. Jander immediately shut his mouth tightly.
Lin Zheng is actually right, this time he came to Lin Zheng, there is really a factor of the US government, although the US government has not said a word so far about the war between Motorola and Lianchuang Technology, but in front of Motorola's stock price all the way down, the market share is not as good as day by day, the US government, the military, lawmakers and those pro-Motorola people within the government finally can't help it.
When Motorola is strong, they are Motorola's staunch supporters and pawns, but once Motorola's strength is damaged, it means that their supporters provide less funds to themselves, and to engage in politics, it is absolutely impossible to do without money, and what kind of politics is there without money? The smell of power is intoxicating, once it is contaminated, it will make people dance, and for their own status and interests, they will also desperately put pressure on Motorola.
And for Motorola, now they are in urgent need of support from the government, Congress, with the support of these resources, Motorola back to the top of the hope is not small, but once lost these support, lost the resources that Motorola has cultivated for so long, Motorola will really collapse.
This risk Edward. Zander didn't dare to take the risk, or rather, no chairman of Motorola dared to do so.
It was Lang Xuan who looked at Edward in surprise. Jander glanced at it, then turned his head to look at his man again, and was more surprised than happy: This is my man.
See the default Edward. Jander, Lin Zheng didn't care about himself, and looked at him with a smile: "Now, will Motorola still refuse?" ”
Edward. Zander smiled bitterly: "Okay, but, Lin, you should understand that this kind of patent transaction, even if Motorola agrees, the regulator will not approve it, not only will it not approve, but the review will be extremely strict." ”
The implication is that even if there is a workaround, it will not work, unless Motorola intends to make enemies of the entire interest group.
"So what else is there to talk about?" Listen to Edward. When Jander said this, Lin Zheng was a little unhappy: "Speaking of which, you mean to tell me that you Motorola plan to admit defeat, but you are unwilling to pay the price, how can there be such a cheap good thing in this world?" Are you sure you're here to talk to me about this today, not to entertain me? ”
This is true, even Edward. Zhan De felt that his face was hot, since he was a loser, he always had to pay some price, but now it was good, Lin Zheng put forward a condition and was refuted by himself, and then put forward another condition, and then he was refuted by himself...... Are you playing tricks? (To be continued.) )
