Chapter 212: No Result
"Metcalfe, why are you here ......?"
Due to the arrangement of the standardization committee, when Alex Clark and the two arrived at the designated office of the committee on time on Monday, Clark couldn't help but ask when he saw Metcalfe, who had already sat down first.
"Two gentlemen, since you can all come, then of course I can too!"
made the other party suffer two big losses under his own hands in a row, and Metcalfe's sense of superiority was already high, and when he heard Clark say this, he would not be polite to the other party.
But at the same time, he was also vigilant, this standardization committee arranged for the two of them to participate in the discussion of their committee's Internet technical standard formulation at the same time, which was absolutely not good, he could see at a glance that the other party wanted them to pinch each other with Feiyue Technology Company, and then sit back and reap the benefits, but they couldn't refuse yet, otherwise they could only give up their efforts.
"Gentlemen, now is not the time to target each other, and in order for our committee to complete the work of formulating Internet technical standards as soon as possible, I think it is necessary for all of us to put aside the previous contradictions and work together.
It's not a very simple job that can be done quickly, and we have to have a lot of patience to do it together......"
Seeing that the two sides are facing each other, Emerson, as the host, must not let this situation continue for any reason, and must be reconciled, and at the same time, at the beginning, he made it clear to everyone that this requires a continuous process in the formulation of technical standards, which is a magic weapon that they can use openly in the next work, and can deal with all kinds of dissatisfaction.
"Mr. President. Can we know how long this discussion and technical standards will take to develop, do you have a clear plan time? ”
Whether it's Metcalfe or Alex, it's okay if they can get things done in Brussels for a short time, and then they can still be patient to get things done before going home.
But if you need to fight a protracted war here, it is not worth it for the company's representatives or senior management of the company to nail here, it is better to send two people here to be responsible for this matter, no matter how successful or bad the matter is, it will not delay the normal operation of the company.
"Mr. President, we need to know about this as well!"
No matter how the two sides target, their words and deeds are still relatively consistent on this matter on which both sides have agreed on it.
"Of course, this needs to be decided according to the specific progress of the matter. But three or five months. I guess it should be unavoidable......"
Their standardization committee doesn't expect to tie up the representative voice of other companies, their purpose is just to use the technology of the other two parties to formulate a national interest that is in line with their respective vassals, no matter who you are here, as long as the communication channels between several parties are always open.
"In that case. Mr. President. I think all we need to do now is to define the intention of cooperation. I don't know which technical standard your European Committee for Standardization prefers between our DIX Group and Feiyue Technology Company? ”
Seeing that this is going to be a long game, this is for Metcalfe. It's not good news, but it's not bad news at least.
Compared with Feiyue Technology Company, which has still achieved nothing, with the DIX Group based on the IEEE Association and the International Organization for Standardization, they will occupy a very big advantage in the next competition between the two sides, as long as they continue to fight steadily, the world of the Internet will definitely belong to them.
However, it would be better if he could know the other party's intentions in advance, but he also knew in his heart that in front of others, I am afraid that this answer is almost impossible to get.
"Mr. Metcalfe, the strength of your DIX Group's technical standards lies in practical application, while the strength of Alex's OSI Internet Reference Model lies in the technical concept, specific and better developability, if possible, we certainly hope that you can cooperate with us at the same time.
If we had to make a unilateral choice, I think it would take us a while to think about it and decide on it......"
I haven't seen these two companies fight, this is completely inconsistent with the previous idea of their committee, so why let them fight again, so as to increase their voice in the next negotiations with Feiyue Technology.
Cooperation has become an inevitable trend, and the next negotiations have entered the stalemate stage without any suspense, whether it is Metcalfe or Alex Clark, of course, they hope to successfully suppress each other, but obviously because the two parties have their own advantages, in the end, no one can bargain, so that Emerson, who has to watch the play, is very happy, what they want is this effect.
"Mr. President, we will return to the company tomorrow, and then we will send some professional staff to contact you, I hope we can cooperate happily!"
The facts are already in front of them, and this is a very bad start for them to fly over the technology company, but what should be fought for, must be fought for, otherwise it will only cheapen others for nothing.
In addition, they have been out for nearly two weeks, and after leaving the company for such a long time, they must have accumulated a lot of work waiting for him to deal with, and the matter of Morgan Stanley's loan must also be resolved, and the construction process of the new headquarters building cannot be delayed.
"Mr. President, we are the same, I hope that at next year's West Coast Electronics Fair, we can meet again, and I will definitely invite you to have a few drinks with Gater and Mr. Maxi at that time!"
For next year's West Coast Electronics Show, they DIX Group is imperative, because by that time, they will be launching their concept product, and it won't be long before they can go global.
"Thank you very much, gentlemen, and I wish you a happy cooperation!"
Emerson's smile was very bright, and he personally sent the people from both companies out of their standardization committees.
"Boss, our trip to Europe is over, but we have basically nothing to gain so far, the International Organization for Standardization has chosen the DIX Group, and the European Committee for Standardization wants to cooperate with us and the DIX Group at the same time, and there is still a long time before they make a decision, about three to six months.
If we have to choose one of the two, Vice President Emerson said, this time may continue to be extended, and the current situation can be said to be very unfavorable for us, I think we have to find a good solution, otherwise at the West Coast Electronics Show in February next year, they will launch a concept product, and then we will be completely passive! ”
Before boarding the plane in the afternoon, Alex estimated the time and called Yao Fei, who was far away in Hong Kong, to report the current situation.
"West Coast Electronics Show next February? Just launching a concept product? Well, I'll let the facts speak for themselves! (To be continued......)
