Chapter 245: Everyone is a person who understands
Yu Chengnan and an assistant walked in under the guidance of the waiter. At this time, Yu Chengnan had a flat head, a gray suit and a burgundy tie, which looked very atmospheric. After seeing Chen Mo and Zhao Min, he immediately smiled.
"Mr. Chen, Mr. Zhao, long time no see."
"Long time no see." Chen Mo and Yu Chengnan shook hands.
"Assistant Xiaoyu, you're getting more and more beautiful." Yu Chengnan looked at Xiao Yu and said.
Xiao Yu smiled slightly: "Thank you, Mr. Yu." ”
"Who is this?" After a pleasantry, Yu Chengnan looked at Xu Yanxin and then at Chen Mo.
Chen Mo glanced at Xu Yanxin: "Xu Jialin's daughter, Xu Yanxin." ”
"Your introduction to me, if you can remove the first half of the sentence, it will be perfect." Xu Yanxin stretched out her hand and smiled politely at Yu Chengnan: "Mr. Yu, hello, I have admired my name for a long time, my name is Xu Yanxin." ”
"Hello." Yu Chengnan looked at Xu Yanxin: "I heard that Xu Jialin has a good daughter, I saw it today, and it was really everyone's best girl." ”
"Thank you for the compliment." Xu Yanxin said with a smile.
Yu Chengnan just sat down on the sofa, and Lei Jun also entered the private room under the leadership of the waiter. Beside Lei Jun, there are two men, namely Chen Mingyong, the president of Opal, and Fan Wei, the head of Vivo.
The three technology tycoons came together, making the private room lively all of a sudden.
"Mr. Chen, Mr. Zhao, Mr. Yu."
After Lei Jun saw the people in the house, he also strode over, and Chen Mingyong and Fan Wei also followed closely and greeted Chen Mo.
Several people sat down on the couch and began to chat.
This time, only the heads of the four major mobile phone giants came to meet, and now they have arrived.
It is home to most of the domestic mobile phone industry.
Xu Yanxin saw this situation and also withdrew from the private room with interest. These bigwigs get together and talk about business, which is not something that she, an outsider, can listen to.
After the scene quieted down, Lei Jun took the lead in speaking: "I don't know how Mr. Chen wants to cooperate this time?" ”
"You ask Zhao Min, she is responsible for the company's operation." Chen Mo set his eyes on Zhao Min, and the eyes of others also looked at Zhao Min.
Zhao Min took a few documents from Xiaoyu and handed them to Yu Chengnan, Lei Jun and others.
"The documents in your hands are the terms of the contract that we are ready to work on, and everyone is the same." Zhao Min said directly.
As soon as these words came out, several people were slightly surprised, and hurriedly read the documents in their hands carefully. It's clear that Marching Ant has the idea to empower multilingual intelligent assistants to them.
They had all thought about obtaining a multilingual authorization for the smart assistant of the marching ant company. But the marching ant company is only used on butterfly eye mobile phones, and is not externally licensed.
This time they are ready to authorize, and they will naturally not let it go, especially during this period of Apple's Siri intelligence.
"I don't need to introduce the functions of the smart assistant. This time, you are authorized to be a multilingual intelligent assistant, I believe you also know, let me briefly talk about the main conditions. Zhao Min said.
Everyone on the field pricked up their ears and waited for Zhao Min's words.
"For this authorization, we charge 5.2% of the price of each mobile phone, which is billed quarterly."
"5.2% is a bit high." Yu Chengnan said: "Mr. Zhao should know that the profit of each of our mobile phones is not very high. ”
"I think the price is very reasonable, is it possible that after you have new technology, the price of the mobile phone is still the same as the original price? Impossible, right? Zhao Min said calmly.
"We don't make money, most of it is made by channel providers." Chen Mingyong spoke.
"Indeed, the profit of our mobile phone is just that." Fan Wei nodded.
"A smart assistant, more than two thousand or three thousand mobile phones, the sense of experience is straight after Apple. The price increase is inevitable, the price of your mobile phone rises by 10% and you sell, and you make money, and my charge is already very low. Zhao Min said.
Several people on the field fell silent.
Several companies on their field, except for Huawei has a high-end market, rice has a high-end market, and other brands are mid-range or low-end markets. A mobile phone is generally more than 2,000 yuan, and you need to pay more than 100 yuan to the marching ants.
"There are multilingual intelligent assistants, South Asia, Southeast Asia and European markets, you completely occupy the initiative, the mid-end market into the mid-to-high-end or even high-end, squeezing the share of Samsung Apple's high-end market, it is not impossible. I don't need to tell you about the benefits. ”
The others looked at each other, did not speak, and seemed to be thinking.
Zhao Min's statement is indeed right. In Southeast Asia, South Asia and Europe, many places do not use English, and multilingual intelligent assistants have clearly overcome this problem and given them an advantage in the market competition.
If it weren't for the march ant company's steps to the international market, the march ant company is likely to have surpassed them in the mobile phone industry.
No one dared to say no to cooperation.
They all know the consequences of refusing to cooperate, and the most serious consequence is to be squeezed out by several other companies on the field.
The intelligent assistant of the marching ant company is not the half-baked mobile phone assistant of the past, this is real artificial intelligence. When it first came out, they knew that this was the beginning of another revolution in the mobile phone market.
If it is not handled well, just like when Samsung and Apple squeezed out Nokia and Sony after the advent of smartphones.
They don't want to be the next Nokia.
"How about a technical fee of 150 yuan per mobile phone?" Lei Jun spoke.
As soon as his proposal came out, Yu Chengnan and the others were dazzled, and they also looked at Zhao Min: "Mr. Zhao, I think Mr. Lei's proposal is good." ”
"Nope." Zhao Min didn't think about it, and shook his head directly.
"Too low? Take a price increase of 10 yuan, 160 yuan. According to the average price of our mobile phones, 160 yuan is close to 6% of the average price, you are very cost-effective. Fan Wei said.
"No, I can't. You don't have to negotiate the price, authorize the multilingual intelligent assistant, we have already made a big concession, and it is impossible to compromise on the price. Zhao Min smiled, she also knew their abacus.
As a veteran of the shopping mall, it is impossible to suffer casually, whether it is her or others on the field.
Because of exchange rate fluctuations, rising material costs, the difference between the incremental market and the stock market, as well as the enhancement of the competitiveness of mobile phones and user reasons, these factors make the average price of mobile phones is rising.
She has data in hand, last year, the price of mobile phones generally rose, an increase of 30%, as prices rise, various expenses increase, mobile phone prices will only get higher and higher.
The licensing fee for each mobile phone is 160 yuan, and within a year, it seems that they are at a loss. However, after the price of mobile phones continued to rise, the authorization fee was still 160 yuan. Even when they entered the mid-to-high-end market, the licensing fee was still 160 yuan per unit, and they suffered a big loss.
"I don't want any 6% of yours, we only need 5.2%, needless to say in terms of price, everyone understands people."
Zhao Min pointed to the document.
"Cooperation is what you and I want, we have shown our sincerity, and the next thing is up to you. The terms of the contract, you take it back, after reading it carefully, you feel that there is no problem, you can contact us at any time to talk about cooperation, if you have any problems with the terms, you can also contact me. Of course, if you sign now, I won't have an opinion. ”
"Okay, let's get here first today, work is important, and eating is even more important." Chen Mo stopped the topic on the field.
The group walked to the dining table and asked the staff to start serving.
"Mr. Chen, what technology have you been busy with lately? Speaking out is an eye-opener for us. Chen Mingyong asked.
"You're the new generation of coquettish figures, share your experience." Lei Jun also said half-jokingly.
The rest of the field chimed in.
"Remove the word 'lead'."
As soon as Chen Mo said this, everyone on the field laughed.
"What I'm busy with is confidential, I can't say it, I can't say it, there is no mystery when I say it, you look forward to it first, and the answer will be revealed later." Chen Mo smiled.
The atmosphere at the dinner table was a little relaxed, and they were all talking about some interesting things in ordinary life. Although they are business rivals, they can also communicate as friends in private.
Until the end of the dinner, everyone did not bring the topic of cooperation just now to the dinner table.
Talking about business while eating can affect your mood to some extent.
After eating and drinking, a few people took a little rest and got up to leave.
The next most important question to study is the sample contract given to them by the marching ant company. Zhao Min said just now that as long as they pass the terms of the contract, they can sign a contract at any time.
Now Apple's S3 has just come out and is still in the pre-sale stage. As long as they are fast enough, they can compete with Apple for a market before the official release of the S3.
