Chapter 419 Technology Licensing and Disclosure

Chen Chen remembered the question asked by the game manufacturer just now, and immediately thought that he hadn't decided on the specific authorization method yet, so he was too lazy to think about it, so it was better to find a reference directly.

So Chen Chen asked Xingchen directly: "Xingchen Technology, has the technical licensing agreement with other mobile phone manufacturers been signed?" How are the authorization methods and fees arranged? ”

Xingchen nodded and said: "It has been decided, it is charged according to the retail price of a single terminal, the license fee of the intelligent assistant is 5% of the price of a single terminal, and the authorization fee of the Xingchen intelligent system is also 5% of the final retail price."

"In general, we charge a licensing fee of 10% of the price of each device, and if the official price of a mobile phone they make is 2,000 yuan, we will charge a licensing fee of 200 yuan.

"If the price of a mobile phone is 10,000 yuan, then we will charge 1,000 yuan directly."

Chen Chen nodded slightly after listening, thoughtfully, this kind of charging method is the authorization method used by Qualcomm and other companies to other mobile phone manufacturers in the past, charging according to the proportion of the final retail price.

I don't care how much you make, whether your profit is high or low, or even whether you lose money or not, we will take 10% of your sales.

This method is the most able to avoid all kinds of conflicts, and it is also the most beneficial authorization method for licensors and suppliers.

On the other hand, it is the most reluctant way for terminal sellers.

The best way for sellers is to charge a fixed one-time license fee, and I will use it as I like in the future, and how much I sell is my own business.

The authorization that Xingchen Technology got from Qualcomm is in this way, and it is free, and it also comes with a secondary license, and Xingchen Technology has the same status as Qualcomm.

Secondly, it is charged according to the percentage of profit, which is the safest, if I don't make money, then I can not pay you the authorization fee.

After signing such a contract, some companies will deliberately make false accounts, saying that they are not making money, so they will give little or even no authorization fees.

Then, it is a fixed license fee for a single device, such as a 10 yuan license fee for a device.

And in the end, it is the last thing they want to see, the way to charge according to the proportion of the sales price, not the manufacturers who are tough to a certain extent, do not dare to charge like this.

Xingchen Technology is such a tough, you originally came to beg me, of course I can do whatever I want.

Opening a 10% is already taking care of you, and if I'm not happy to open 20%, you should buy it or have to buy it.

The more the dispute, the more ugly it is, so in order to get by for everyone's face, at the price of 10%, these mobile phone manufacturers directly admit it.

After thinking for a while, Chen Chen spoke: "In the past, those game manufacturers came to ask about technology licensing, and now I have decided to charge 10% of their game's monthly turnover.

"Let the legal department of Xingchen Technology, according to the authorization agreement of the mobile phone system and the smart assistant, help make a set of game intelligent core authorization agreement, and find a time for someone from the game company to come and sign."

The licensing agreement signed between Xingchen Technology and the mobile phone manufacturer must have been carefully reviewed by the legal affairs of Xingchen Technology.

And because of the current status of Xingchen Technology, all the terms must be drafted and decided by themselves, and the other party will not be allowed to make any changes, only the option of accepting or not accepting.

Therefore, this cooperation agreement must be the most beneficial to Xingchen Technology.

Chen Chen's idea is also very simple, it is most beneficial to himself, and at the same time, he can avoid arguing as much as possible.

In corporate cooperation, this is a matter of course, and all companies have the same idea.

However, whether such an idea can be implemented in the signing of the contract is simply a consideration of the relationship between supply and demand.

If the status of the two parties is equal, then many clauses will be constantly revised, considering various reasons, tossing back and forth, and negating each other.

And if one side is absolutely strong, then the other side has no room for bargaining.

It is to give you a standard contract, and you have to sign a contract that is obviously unfair.

In the face of the mobile phone manufacturers of Xingchen Technology and the game manufacturers of Qingkong Network, this is the current situation.

Let you sign how you want, and if you don't sign, you will get out.

When you think about it, you feel like a bad person.

Chen Chen thought for a while, and then said to Qingkong: "Mobile phone manufacturers can shorten the development cycle by using our system and our intelligent assistant.

"That's because with our system and smart assistants, they don't have to think about system optimization at all, they just need to get the hardware right.

"So even when it's time to release the phone, it's no problem to give them permission.

"But game production is different from the mobile phone system and smart assistants, after changing our production methods, it takes a learning time for them to develop their own games without the initiative of Qingkong you.

"So, I decided to hand over the new game production technology to them in advance......

"But it's too troublesome to teach it in person, so let's make a tutorial, add the software platform for testing, and do it together, and put it directly on our official website, so that they can learn it by themselves."

Speaking of this, Chen Chen glanced at the two of them: "Qingkong, Xingchen, please leave the matter of the tutorial to you." ”

Qingkong smiled and nodded: "No problem, but if you put it directly on the official website, ordinary users can see it, right?" Will this affect the agreement with the game manufacturer? ”

Chen Chen smiled: "I thought about it, our cooperation agreement with them is to give them the right to use the intelligent core, not to transfer their confidential technology.

"We directly disclose the technology and software, so that ordinary people can use it for free, but for commercial use, we need our authorization, so there is no problem."

Xingchen blinked: "I understand, in other words, Chenchen's real purpose is actually to make the relevant technology public and improve the overall game production level in the domestic circle, right?" ”

Chen Chen smiled and said, "It can be said that it is...... The environmental foundation, the material conditions, and the mass foundation actually determine the development potential of a thing.

"We have a mass base in table tennis, so we can get the world's top results at will, and our second-tier athletes are the absolute main force when they go to other countries.

"On the contrary, the mass base of our football is very poor, so the competition is not good, and the preliminary round of the group stage is as difficult as the sky.

"In terms of culture, art and creativity, the role of a similar mass base is even more important.

"We sent out the talent development system in order to make full use of our huge population base in Donghua to improve the cultural creativity of the whole society.

"But the talent development system is a very basic tool, just like the most basic operating system.

"This time, we released specific tools and software related to game development and made a self-learning tutorial, which is a standardized guide.

"Through this tutorial, we will tell ordinary users how to use this system, which is the most convenient and fastest."

After the two listened, Qingkong nodded solemnly, and Xingchen said with a smile:

"I know that it is necessary to take advantage of the huge population base of Donghua, which is the same as industrial technology.

"After any high-tech is really mastered by Donghua, it will quickly go off the altar, the cost will be reduced very low, and foreign manufacturers will be completely squeezed into no way out."

Chen Chen smiled and nodded, but did not speak.

Chen Chen recently discovered that the differences between the personalities of Xingchen and Qingkong are becoming more and more obvious.

Qingkong is serious at all times, and he looks at each other, while Xingchen is a little naughty and relatively lively.

Xingchen and Qingkong, although they can't be considered real humans, are no different from humans except for their bodies.
