Chapter 1402: An Invitation to the Local Tyrant Show Off Wealth

After Weng Tongsheng's words, there was silence in the conference room. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info_ Yawen_8w=w'w-.'y'a=w-e'n·8·. =>

Although the scale of Lianchuang Technology is much larger than that of VIA Electronics and HTC Electronics combined, the mentality of people on the island has always been very proud: What about the large scale of your Lianchuang Technology? It's nothing more than a foundry that works hard and earns some hard-earned money, but we make high-tech money, easy and pleasant, much higher than your B-grade.

As for Lianchuang Technology, which has the ability to independently open and design mobile phones, has its own processor architecture, has a complete set of industrial chain from research to production technology to patents of digital cameras, and has its own computer research and production capacity, they should not be able to see these things.

But now, they can no longer keep their heads down and pretend not to see, if they don't cooperate with Lianchuang Technology, the results of waiting for VIA Electronics are already doomed: VIA's share of the chipset market will be lower and lower, and its share of the CPU market will fall from less than 4% to the possibility of eliminating the general-purpose CPU business.

How to choose? The answer to this question is actually quite simple.

"Maybe there's another way...... There's always another way......" someone muttered to himself in despair.

This reality is a big blow to them who have always been proud.

But no one answered, in fact, they themselves knew in their hearts that there could be no other way.

Wang Xuehong is worthy of being a strong woman who single-handedly created VIA Electronics and HTC Electronics, and after realizing that she no longer has any choice, she glanced at her husband Chen Wenqi, and then nodded: "Then so be it." ”

Wang Xuehong is the chairman of HTC Electronics, Chen Wenqi is the chairman of VIA Electronics, VIA Electronics and HTC Electronics have become the husband-and-wife shop of these two, and many years of life have made the two quite tacit, and they can understand what each other means with a glance at each other.

……………………

In order to show their sincerity, Wang Xuehong and Chen Wenqi chose to play golf at an international golf course in Window City, which was an acceptable choice for both parties: Lin Zheng and his wife had to fly for several hours. But after all, it is in China, and it can be regarded as its home field; For Wang Xuehong and Chen Wenqi, although the distance from the island to Window City is shorter, in a sense, they can be regarded as "going abroad". This is offset by this advantage.

"Mr. Lin, congratulations." Wang Xuehong came up and said, "I want you to invite you to this dinner tonight." ”

"Oh?" Lin Zheng was a little surprised, and didn't understand what Wang Xuehong said: "Of course it's no problem for me to ask, but ask Chairman Wang, where does the joy come from?" ”

"The share of the global smartphone market is as high as 54%. Isn't this something that even giants like Microsoft and Nokia have achieved that they have not achieved? ”

It turned out to be this, Lin Zheng suddenly laughed, and waved his hand modestly: "It's all about everyone giving face, not hiding from Wang Dong and Chen Dong, now we are losing money and making money, and now the poor have to be pants." ”

Chen Wenqi smiled and said nothing: Although each smartphone with a pre-installed system costs only $1, which is ridiculously cheaper than Microsoft's 1e2oo3, everyone is an insider, and it is said that they lose money. At this stage, the main free card must be losing money, but if he loses his pants, he will never believe it, and in less than 5 years, Lianchuang Technology will definitely turn losses into profits.

They certainly don't know that although Lianchuang Technology has lost money, it is not just a set of smartphone operating systems for Lianchuang Technology, and the "multiplier effect" brought by the system to Lianchuang Technology has been revealed. > Yawen Bar>___w-w-w=.-y'a-w-e·n·8·.· c-The accurate user behavior and habit data provided by C-Contribution is indispensable.

In addition, Lianchuang Technology can also make money by selling this data, and in fact, the entire project has been profitable since last year. However, Lianchuang Technology will not hype these things up...... To put it mildly, how can a company that does not cry poor get money from the state treasury?

Although he claimed to be here to play, playing is not an end, just a means, and the two sides have a concubine intentionally, and soon talked about the current trend of the PC industry. Wang Xuehong lamented that the life of VIA Electronics is not good now, and the company has lost money for three consecutive years now.

Lin Zheng took the opportunity to pick up the topic and said strangely: "VIA Electronics' chipset has always been well-known in terms of quality and cost performance, and its market share was once as high as 5o%, and now it has reached a settlement with INTE1 and has also obtained INTE1's compatibility authorization, how can it lose money?" ”

"INTE1 buried a back hand in the previous licensing agreement, and we were pitted by INTE1." Chen Wenqi smiled bitterly, he was really embarrassed to explain such a shameful thing.

Pursuant to the previous settlement between VIA and INTE1, VIA and INTE1 will each withdraw all ongoing litigation and enter into a 10-year cross-licensing agreement for their existing product lines. Second, in the future, INTE1 will authorize VIA to sell x86 instruction set processor products that are incompatible with the pin/bus of INTE1 processors, and agree not to claim patents for VIA pin/bus compatible processor products for a period of three years. Finally, INTE1 signed a 4-year chipset licensing agreement with VIA, agreeing that VIA may design and sell chipset products compatible with INTE1 processors and will not assert patents for its chipsets in the fifth year.

Judging from the agreements reached between VIA Electronics and INTE1, no matter how you look at it, VIA Electronics won the lawsuit, and VIA Electronics bit off a piece of meat from INTE1, and the entire technology and media circles on the island cheered for it at that time, but who would have thought that INTE1 would actually poison this piece of meat?

Lin Zheng nodded with a clear face: "Europeans and Americans have always been bone-knocking on the marrow when doing business, and setting obstacles and traps in the agreement is their most common method...... Well, everyone is Chinese, if there is anything I can help with, the virtuous couple must speak, don't be polite. ”

are all smart people, now that everyone has come together, there is no need to engage in the same set of wanting, stingy.

Wang Xuehong and his wife breathed a sigh of relief, although they both knew that they would definitely be able to reach an agreement, but Lin Zheng was so happy but it was also a little unexpected for them. Chen Wenqi nodded again and again, and said gratefully: "Thank you, Mr. Chen, you have helped me a lot...... Mr. Chen can rest assured that no matter what your requirements are, VIA will do its best to meet them, and the price provided to you will be the most competitive price, and will not make you embarrassed. ”

"Mr. Chen is polite." Lin Zheng smiled and nodded: "But tonight's dinner?" ”

For both parties, reaching this cooperation framework and intention, the work of the boss is completed, and the next details of the cooperation will naturally be completed by the negotiation teams of both parties.

"Of course I'm please!" Chen Wenqi said without hesitation: "I heard that Mr. Lin and Mr. Tan like to eat seafood? It just so happened that I knew that a restaurant had just entered a batch of Aolong and abalone, so I won't talk about it, this batch of abalone is said to be a rare three-headed abalone, and Mr. Lin must try it. ”

"Three-headed abalone? That's rare, Chen Dong is going to bleed heavily tonight. Lin Zheng said with a smile.

"Invite Mr. Lin and Mr. Tan to dinner, it's not okay to be stingy," Wang Xuehong waved her hand: "By the way, Mr. Lin, the entrepreneurs on the island organized an event next month, I don't know if you are interested?" ”

"Oh?" Lin Zheng raised his eyebrows: "What activity?" ”

"It is a yacht exchange meeting, everyone drives their yachts to go offshore fishing, splashing, when the island is the number one person entrepreneurs will be present, there will be a lot of stars and models, everyone catches fresh seafood will have a special chef to help you do it, very lively, Mr. Lin want to go over and play with everyone?"

I understand, what kind of yacht exchange meeting is simply a gathering of rich people to show off their wealth. Don't look at Wang Xuehong saying that everyone will go fishing and playing in the water together, but everyone understands in their hearts that when the time comes, it will be to see whose yacht is bigger and more luxurious, and who will have more face.

Lin Zheng now has a Gulfstream 2-SP upgraded and modified private jet, in addition to a Boeing, which is a public business jet for its senior industrial officials, yachts Lin Zheng has, in recent years, the big 6 billionaires have also begun to play yachts, but these yachts are more than ten or twenty meters of small and medium-sized offshore yachts, Lin Zheng's private yacht is large, but it is only 22 meters, to say that the kind of large, fifty or sixty meters at every turn, can carry out ocean voyages of luxury yachts, he really does not - Although no rich man would ever sail on such an ocean-going yacht, it would be another thing to do so, but whether there is one or another matter.

The reality of not having a luxury yacht made Lin Zheng frown slightly: "But I don't have a yacht." ”

"It's okay, you can go with us," Wang Xuehong immediately took over: "The entrepreneurs on the island have long wanted to see the demeanor of Mr. Lin and Mr. Tan." ”

"It's fine." After a little groaning, and Tan Na glanced at each other, Lin Zheng agreed to Wang Xuehong's invitation. (To be continued.) )
