Chapter 455: OEM and Acquisition

For the next half hour, the interview was somewhat uneventful.

Liu Xi found that the 18-year-old boy in front of him was like an old fox who had gone through the world, no matter how tricky the questions he asked, he could answer them calmly.

Some questions involving privacy, Pang Xuelin either cleverly avoided them, or directly told Liu Xi that this was personal privacy and it was difficult to answer.

As for CVD-related issues, he talked a lot, bragged about it, and even predicted that the annual output of CVD would reach one million or even tens of millions of units in the future, and the market size would reach 10 billion RMB.

Liu Xi could only hehe.

However, Pang Xuelin can achieve today's achievements, and the doubts in her heart have been reduced a lot.

Such a genius boy who is as cunning as a fox is strange if he can't succeed.

Half an hour later, Liu Xi got up and said, "Mr. Pang, thank you very much for accepting the interview with Southern Weekly today, I estimate that this interview will not be released until next month." ”

Pang Xuelin laughed and said, "Don't worry, anyway, you have my mobile phone, remember to tell me when the time comes." ”

"Good!"

"I still have some things, Reporter Liu, then I won't send you, Lao Liu, you can send Reporter Liu."

Pang Xuelin glanced at Liu Qi.

Ten minutes later, Liu Xi came out of Transwarp Technology with a bulging carriage and horse fare, and opened the red envelope, Liu Xi couldn't help but gasp, a whole pile of 100 yuan bills, at least 5,000, equivalent to Liu Xi's salary for more than half a year.

"This Pang Xuelin is really atmospheric!"

Liu Xi shook his head and smiled, stopped a taxi casually, and prepared to return to the newspaper office.

Pang Xuelin is so atmospheric, she naturally doesn't want to publish anything unfavorable to Transwarp Technology in the interview, but in the next time, she will make a big blow about Transwarp Technology.

……

Inside the office.

Liu Fatzi said: "Brother Pang, wouldn't it be bad to give so much carriage and horse fares?" ”

Pang Xuelin laughed and said: "If the reporters on other platforms, three or five hundred will be counted, Nanzhou is different, this media will serve well, and it will be of great benefit to us to promote CVD in China in the future......"

The two were talking when there was a sudden knock on the office door again.

"Please come in!"

A woman who looked a little charming pushed the door and came in, and said delicately: "Mr. Pang, Mr. Liu, there are two guests outside who claim to be guests of Wanyan Company and Scooper Company in the United States to visit. ”

"Wan Yan, Scooper?"

Pang Xuelin was slightly stunned and thoughtful.

"Brother Pang, do you know people from these two companies?"

Liu Fatzi said curiously.

Pang Xuelin pondered for a moment and said with a smile: "I don't know, but I've heard of it." ”

Immediately, he raised his head and said to the woman, "Secretary Chen, you take them to the reception room, and I will be there later." ”

"Okay."

Secretary Chen nodded and exited Pang Xuelin's office.

This Secretary Chen is the personal secretary recruited by Liu Fatzi, at first Pang Xuelin thought it was Xiao Mi raised by Liu Fatzi in the company, and originally wanted to have a good talk with Liu Fatzi.

As a result, the other party's performance was somewhat unexpected by Pang Xuelin, and his work ability was very strong, although the relationship with Liu Fatzi was a little unclear, but on the basis of not delaying the development of the company, Pang Xuelin also mentioned Liu Fatzi a few words, and did not say much.

Ten minutes later, Pang Xuelin came to the reception room and saw two men who looked like they were forty years old sitting on the sofa in the reception room.

One of them has a square face, a straight eyebrow, and looks a little honest.

The other has a very different temperament, wearing a suit, a pair of Kings glasses, and a polite appearance.

Seeing Pang Xuelin coming in, Jiang Wanmeng and Sun Yansheng couldn't help but be stunned.

Jiang Wanmeng, who had a square face, said curiously: "Hello, may I ask ...... you are?" ”

Pang Xuelin laughed, stretched out his hand and said, "Mr. Sun, Mr. Jiang, hello, I am Pang Xuelin, the founder of Transwarp. ”

"You are Pang Xuelin?"

Jiang Wanmeng and Sun Yansheng glanced at each other, and an incredible look flashed on their faces.

After coming to Shencheng, they first went to buy a Star Ring CVD product, with a silver-gray fuselage, a boxy and angular design, with a strong sense of digital technology, and the Wanyan VCD they made is simply a representative of stupidity and stupidity.

Not to mention, this CVD uses MPEG-2 technology, and in terms of clarity, it beats Wanyan VCD.

And they also went to the patent office to do some investigation, and found that Transwarp not only registered the patent of the whole machine of CVD and the patent of the decoding chip, but also registered several compression algorithm patents.

With the strong patent network it has built, Wanyan VCD basically does not have the possibility of continued development.

The two were disheartened and prepared to leave Shencheng and return to Luzhou to dissolve Wanyan Company, but they were a little unwilling before leaving.

At Sun Yansheng's suggestion, Jiang Wanmeng simply came to Transwarp Technology Company with Sun Yansheng, wanting to meet the competitor who was knocked to the ground with a punch before they could start developing.

Jiang Wanmeng and Sun Yansheng have always had some guesses about Pang Xuelin, who founded Transwarp Technology, but they never expected that the other party would be a young man who looked like a high school student.

"Mr. Pang, hello! I am Jiang Wanmeng, general manager of Luzhou Wanyan Company. ”

"Mr. Pang, hello, I am Sun Yansheng, a Chinese-American, and the founder of MPEG video decoding chip Scober."

Pang Xuelin shook hands with Jiang Wanmeng and Sun Yansheng respectively, and said with a smile: "I don't know what the two of you are visiting?" ”

Jiang Wanmeng and Sun Yansheng glanced at each other and said with a wry smile: "Mr. Pang, in fact, we just want to meet you." ”

"Meet me?"

Pang Xuelin was slightly stunned.

Jiang Wanmeng said with a smile: "Mr. Pang, do you know, Wanyan Company is a company that I cooperated with Lao Sun, the main development product is VCD, which is similar to your company's products in terms of function, but we use the first generation of MPEG technology, which is still inferior to your company's CVD player in terms of performance." But what we didn't expect was that not long ago, after completing the product development, we found that your CVD had been put on sale in Xiangjiang and achieved great success. ”

Pang Xuelin's face suddenly showed a look of sudden realization, and he said with a smile: "Then your intention to come here today is mainly for patent issues, right?" ”

Jiang Wanmeng and Sun Yansheng were slightly stunned.

Sun Yansheng's eyes suddenly lit up and said, "Mr. Pang, is your company willing to authorize patents?" ”

"Patents?"

Pang Xuelin shook his head with a smile and said, "Transwarp has no plans to grant patents to the outside world for the time being. ”

These two years are the two years when CVD has taken off, and the profit is almost three or four times the cost, how can Pang Xuelin easily grant patents.

Only after a year or two, when the entire CVD market matures and the industrial chain and other aspects are up, will he license the patent and sell it at a reduced price.

Pang Xuelin smiled: "Although the patent cannot be authorized, we can still cooperate between the two companies." ”

"How to cooperate?"

Sun Yansheng was a little disappointed just now, and his eyes lit up suddenly when he heard this.

Even Jiang Wanmeng looked at Pang Xuelin expectantly.

You must know that in order to develop VCD, Sun Yansheng and Jiang Wanmeng have invested more than 14 million US dollars in R&D, and have also booked a large number of parts and components from upstream manufacturers for the next production, and even the plant and workers have been prepared.

In this case, the birth of Transwarp Technology has almost turned all the efforts of Sun Yansheng and Jiang Wanmeng into a river of spring water.

They didn't know what the future of Wanyan Company should be, and when they suddenly heard Pang Xuelin's proposal for cooperation, how could they not be excited.

Pang Xuelin pondered for a moment and said with a smile: "The upstream and downstream of your industrial chain should have been opened, right?" ”

Jiang Wanmeng and Sun Yansheng glanced at each other and nodded.

Pang Xuelin said: "You have been preparing for so long, if you give up all of them, it will be a pity, I don't know if your company is interested in doing OEM for our Transwarp Technology?" ”

"OEM? What is the OEM method? ”

Jiang Wanmeng frowned.

Pang Xuelin said with a smile: "Our Transwarp Technology Factory now has an annual output of less than 100,000 units, and the entire CVD market in the future can at least reach 10 million or even hundreds of millions of levels, therefore, the whole market still has a lot of room for expansion, we hope that you can join in, do OEM for our products, and the brand is attached to the brand of Transwarp, as for the profit, after deducting the OEM cost, I will leave you a net profit of 200 RMB per unit." ”

Jiang Wanmeng was a little moved.

If they agree to Pang Xuelin's conditions, then their losses will be much less, and even Wanyan Company itself will have a chance to survive.

Sun Yansheng, on the other hand, was still a little worried.

Although he also has some shares in Wanyan, his real roots are still in Scober.

Scober has invested a huge amount of money in MPEG video decoding chips, and now he is just ready to do a big job, Pang Xuelin uses the second-generation MPEG to shoot his products directly on the beach.

This worries him even more.

In the real world, although Wan Yan died, Sun Yansheng's Scottber company was thriving because of the explosion of China's VCD market.

Until the later era of mobile Internet, Scober is still an important supplier in the field of global digital multimedia chips.

Today, however, the situation is quite the opposite.

If Wanyan Company is willing to OEM for Transwarp, it still has a chance to survive.

On the contrary, it was his Scober company that had a huge crisis.

Transwarp has completed the development of the second-generation MPEG-2 chip and mastered a series of subsequent patents for MPEG technology.

Seeing Sun Yansheng's sad appearance, Pang Xuelin smiled and said, "Mr. Sun, are you interested in selling Scober?" ”

"Sell Scooper?"

Sun Yansheng shook his head and looked at Pang Xuelin incredulously.

Transwarp has mastered the most advanced MPEG technology, what does he want Scooper to do?

Pang Xuelin laughed and said: "I am more interested in your company's R&D team in the United States, if Mr. Sun is willing to transfer, I can pay 30 million US dollars to acquire all the shares of Scober." ”

"Thirty million dollars?"

Sun Yansheng fell silent.

In the field of video decoding chips, even in the United States, Scober is a first-rate existence, with more than 200 R&D engineers in the company, all of which were built by Sun Yansheng.

Originally, Sun Yansheng planned to use MPEG technology to make a big move, but the birth of Transwarp Technology made Sun Yansheng have no direction for Scooper's future.

He didn't know how Scooper would develop in the future once Wanyan Company fell and had no source of profit.

Selling is indeed a good choice, and Pang Xuelin can give 50 million US dollars, which is a relatively real price.

It's just that the child he raised by himself was handed over to others, and Sun Yansheng was a little difficult to accept for a while.

Pang Xuelin looked at Sun Yansheng, who was hesitating, and was not in a hurry.

He values Scober's R&D team more than the technology he masters.

CVD and even the next DVD technology, in Pang Xuelin's view, are just used to make money.

His real goal is to help China build a chip industry.

It's just that in this era, the development of the domestic integrated circuit industry is struggling, not to mention anything else, there is a big gap between the talents in the field of microelectronics alone and the world.

In this regard, Pang Xuelin is also a clever woman who is difficult to cook without rice.

He can only focus on foreign R&D teams.

And Sun Yansheng's Scooper company is undoubtedly a good choice.

Sun Yansheng pondered for a moment and said, "Mr. Pang, can I think about the sale of Scooper first?" I'll have to think about it. ”

Pang Xuelin laughed and said, "Okay, let's not worry about this, let's talk about the cooperation between Transwarp Technology and Wanyan first!" ”

Next, Pang Xuelin directly called Liu Qi and chatted with Sun Yansheng and Jiang Wanmeng about CVD OEM.

Liu Qi naturally has no resistance to Wanyan OEM Star Ring CVD.

On the one hand, when Transwarp was established before, although Liu Qi prepared factories and workers, compared with the popularity of Transwarp CVD today, Transwarp's production capacity is a little insufficient to meet the needs of Xiangjiang, let alone develop the mainland market in the future.

Therefore, Liu Qi is naturally very happy to have one more factory to share the production capacity for Transwarp.

On the other hand, the last time I went to Xiangjiang, before I came back, my old bean specially pulled himself over to mention his face, so that he must listen to Pang Xuelin's words and not disagree with Pang Xuelin within the company.

Liu Fatzi kept these words firmly in his heart, and naturally he would not have any resistance to Pang Xuelin's order.

In the next few days, the four of them had a full range of talks on all aspects of OEM.

Then five days later, Liu Fatzi took several core executives of the company to Luzhou with Jiang Wanmeng and Sun Yansheng to inspect the production environment of Wanyan Company.

As for Sun Yansheng, he still hasn't decided whether to sell his Scooper company.

Pang Xuelin is not in a hurry, anyway, his money in the stock market is still rising, and if he delays the acquisition until next year, it can help Pang Xuelin make a lot of money.
