Chapter 1159: Internal Contradictions
In January of this year, Xiao Qi and Samsung Electronics reached an agreement.
Samsung's upcoming smartphones, as well as tablets without shadows, are based on 20 million smartphones and 10 million tablets, and each has a cost of $20, which is the patent fee paid to Fairy Company.
Although according to the agreement, the more they produce, the royalties will continue to decrease, but even if they produce the final number of 200 million smartphones and 20 million units in the future, they need to pay at least $5 per smartphone.
If so many new patents are added, then Xiao Qi will not charge them a minimum of $10 for a patent fee in the future, and he is sorry for Samsung's own enthusiasm.
Samsung's total sales of smartphones and tablets in the next year will exceed 300 million, and the $10 patent fee means that Xiao Qi can get $3 billion in net profits from Samsung every year.
This is the liliang of technology!
That's the wealth that patents transform!
Xiao Qi thought of so many profits, and couldn't help but feel a little surprised, no wonder so many people went one after another to make inventions, no wonder Shijie would develop so fast.
If you want to follow the doctrine of taking and copycat from ancient times to the present, I am afraid that it is still a feudal era.
It is worth mentioning that although Xiao Qi has obtained many patents by virtue of his memory, in addition, he still attaches great importance to invention patents.
The R&D expenses spent on Fairy Labs, Ming Xiang Holdings' North American Laboratories, and app stores have already exceeded more than $5 billion, and this amount is still increasing.
In addition, the fairy company is also desperately buying and obtaining various related patent authorizations throughout the shijie range, and this fee is carried out with the research and development of Xiao Qi's DreamStars. It's increasing even faster.
Therefore, regardless of the high patent licensing fees that Xiao Qi received from Apple and Samsung, the patent licensing fees he paid were also a lot, and even as DreamPad and DreamStars sold more and more, he would give more and more.
Without further ado.
For Xiao Qi to say that he has a big appetite, Li Jianxi smiled slightly, "Qi Shao." Samsung is not short of money, what is lacking is jishu...... I believe that Samsung will give the right price, and we and the fairy company will definitely cooperate with the app store to achieve a win-win situation. ”
WHEN HE SAID THIS, XIAO QI SMILED UNCONSCIOUSLY, "CHAIRMAN LI, THE IPHONE OF THE GANG LEADER QIAO HAS ALREADY MADE A LOT OF MONEY FOR YOU, RIGHT?" But I don't see where the profits created by Samsung are...... Joe's gang leader recently called. Not only did he ask to rob me of my profits, but he also named Samsung to say that Samsung did not deserve a 5% profit share. ”
After the iPhone landed in the app store, the crazy sales momentum of various game software programs was not inferior to that of the DreamPad.
ACCORDING TO THE SOUTH FLORIDA TIMES, IPHONE FANS SPEND 70% OF THEIR FREE TIME ON TRAMS AND TRAINS PLAYING APP GAMES. The data is against the sky!
YOU KNOW, IT'S NOT JUST YOUNG PEOPLE WHO ARE BUYING IPHONES. There are also many middle-aged and elderly people over 40 years old who have also bought it, and if you remove this part of them, it is that the remaining 98% of young people like to play some fun games in their free time.
IPHONES HAVE NOW SOLD 15 MILLION COPIES, AND THE PROFITS FROM THE APPS CREATED BY THESE FANS HAVE LONG SINCE MADE PEOPLE WANT TO ROB THEM.
Qiao Gang Leader also called Xiao Qi several times in a row. It is required to renegotiate the way of profit allocation, and it must not be divided according to 5% of the net profit, otherwise Apple will lose too much.
Xiao Qi, of course, did not agree.
Qiao Gang Leader has a very tough personality, if Xiao Qi retreats once, then he will be pressed again and again in the future. Until Zuihou took control of the app store.
It is said that Ma Yun's desire to control. The hope is very strong, but if you compare it with Qiao Gang Leader, it is the difference between heaven and earth.
The reason why Xiao Qi disagrees is very simple,Your iPhone app is selling well,But my DreamPad is selling more than you,I'm close to 50 million units,The number of programs purchased for each DreamPad,Now it's still firmly suppressing your IPHONE,I didn't say that Apple took advantage of DreamPad,How much money do you have?,It's starting to be arrogant?
Besides, isn't Samsung's smartphone yet on the market? Can you say that people must be very bad when they go public and can't sell apps?
The reason for such a strong refusal is that Xiao Qi also sees that the Qiao gang leader has no way to quit the app store, and this strong coercion is just to get more benefits for himself.
Because of the various APPSTORE applications that Xiao Qi had an impression of in his previous life, 90% of them have appeared or appeared in the app store in advance.
If Joe's gang leader starts from scratch, where will he find so much software and games to use? CAN IPHONE USERS AGREE? WILL THEY SEE THAT OTHERS CAN PLAY SO MANY GAMES AND USE SO MANY SOFTWARE PROGRAMS, WILL THEY STILL STAY IN THE CAMP OF THE IPHONE?
THEREFORE, IF APPLE CREATES ITS OWN APPSTORE, THEN THEY WILL NOT ONLY LOSE A HUGE PROFIT IN THE APP STORE, BUT ALSO THEIR OWN CUSTOMER BASE, WHICH WILL DEFINITELY OUTWEIGH THE LOSS.
So, it's really good to be one step ahead.
Li Kunxi is not surprised by Jobs's statement, because during this period of time, Samsung Electronics' share of the app store is indeed very high, take the first 29 days of this July, Samsung's gross profit is almost 200 million US dollars, without any effort, can get so many profits, no wonder Qiao Gang will be unhappy.
"Hehe, our Samsung will definitely not be worse than them, Qi Shao, please wait and see!" Lee Kun-hee is also an old fox, of course he refuses to show weakness, "Besides, Samsung will not be as unsatisfied as Apple, and our attitude towards friends is only one word: sincerity." In the future, what is the use of you to get me, Li Jianxi has nothing to say. ”
Of course, Samsung will not be worse than Apple, and the number of smartphones owned by Samsung in the future will be 3 times that of Apple!
With such a base, at least in terms of app sales, Samsung will not lose to Apple - this is one of the reasons why Weishenme Xiao Qi has the confidence to refuse Qiao's gang leader's attack. (To be continued......)
