Chapter 131: Interview (7/18)
Several Americans looked at each other.
Frank Kuidong had a polite smile on his face, but he scolded in his heart, they originally thought that the object of the negotiation was Qiu Shiming, so they had studied Lao Qiu for a long time.
After all, Qiu Shiming is the current president of Tianqing Technology Company, and even the original developer conference was he gave a speech on behalf of Tianqing Technology.
For this business negotiation, I did a lot of preparation for Qiu Shiming, but after the meeting, Gu Cheng came to talk?
WFT?
The previous preparations were in vain.
It's not that they don't want to know Gu Cheng, on the contrary, they want to know this person too much, because Gu Cheng is the founder of Tianqing Technology and the soul of this company.
But the problem is that he barely shows up, and no one has dealt with him at all, and there is no way to find out.
At this point, we can only take one step at a time.
"Mr. Gu, we are deeply sorry for some unpleasantness in the previous cooperation, but as you know, we are actually very reluctant to give up cooperation with your company, but in the face of the ban of the North American authorities, we have no other way." MEAS President Frank Quidon was the first to speak, and it was like throwing the pot at the North American authorities.
Gu Cheng sat cross-legged on a sofa and said succinctly: "Understood." ”
Whether it was the Americans, the British, or the people present, they were all muttering in their hearts, they found that Gu Cheng was obviously in his early twenties, but he had an inexplicably powerful aura on his body, which was something that only forty or fifty-year-olds should have.
They didn't know that if it was strictly calculated according to their mental age, Gu Cheng, who was a person in two lives, was actually not younger than them.
Frank Kuidong coughed lightly, he couldn't figure out the other party's personality routine, so he could only see the tricks on the spot, and simply said bluntly: "Mr. Gu, let's talk openly, your company has no need to waste resources to repeat a research and development, we can supply Tianqing Technology, although the 'entity list' thing is really embarrassing, but we all know that contemporary is a highly compact global supply chain era." MEAS can supply a large number of products for your company, as long as you give up self-development, we can even jointly recommend Tianqing Technology to join the SIA Semiconductor Industry Association as an international member, so as to avoid unnecessary duplication of resources and unhelpful vicious competition, and further integrate the high allocation of global resources. ”
Simon Hijas, the current president of ARM, also hurriedly continued: "We also take into account the TQv1 architecture of Tianqing Technology, and ARM provides a new cooperation plan, which is to cross-hold shares with your company's subsidiary 'Tianqing Architecture', and the two sides will establish a cooperation channel for technology sharing on this basis to share the global market." ”
After speaking, Simon Hijas looked at SoftBank's people, ARM has been acquired by SoftBank, and obviously, SoftBank Investment also agreed.
"With all due respect, why didn't you come to talk to me before the developer conference?" Gu Cheng suddenly asked lightly, as soon as these words came out, the foreigners present were greatly embarrassed, and it was not good to answer, and it was not good not to answer.
This kind of problem was originally unwilling to be exposed, but Gu Cheng was good, which pot was not opened, and he said it in person.
Hell knows you're holding back such a trick!
Falling into an embarrassing atmosphere for a while, Gu Cheng glanced at them and sneered in his heart, if it wasn't for the announcement of their hole cards at the developer conference, it would be impossible for these foreigners to lower their posture and come over.
Moreover, what made Gu Cheng very unhappy was that even now they still put forward this kind of condition that is clearly cheating.
Give up self-development?
A fool would do this, giving up the road of independent research and development, which is equivalent to wielding a knife from the palace.
After a while, the representative of the North American Semiconductor Industry Association secretly gritted his teeth and asked, "Then may I ask Mr. Gu, what is your specific wish?" ”
Hearing this, Gu Cheng responded without hesitation: "Tianqing Technology's attitude has already been made clear, as long as North America is willing to sell us chips, we will definitely buy them, and they will buy them in large quantities, we will not reject them, we will not do this kind of narrow self-growth." ”
Sweat......
This made several foreigners present at the negotiation feel embarrassed again, just talk about business, don't always be a diss person between the lines.
Gu Cheng immediately smiled and continued: "It is impossible for us to give up the road of independent research and development, and to tell the truth, this kind of convulsive ban of the North American authorities is even more impossible." ”
Frank Quedon said: "There are two years left at most, and he will definitely not be re-elected. ”
Gu Cheng spread his hands and shrugged: "Who knows, maybe he will be re-elected?" Frankly, not to mention two more years, I can't stand two months. ”
Frank Kuidong and others are embarrassed again, in fact, they are not interested in the North American authorities, they are tossing and turning all day long, and they can't do cross-border trade well, but that's no problem, they have to endure it for more than two years, and they have to endure it.
If the North American authorities can be re-elected, Frank Quedon feels that God is probably blind, and the great America will sooner or later be played by him.
At this time, Gu Cheng added: "And I have a condition, Tianqing Technology is purchasing a large number of chips from North American suppliers, and in exchange, Tianqing Technology's products must be allowed to enter the North American market." ”
Hearing this, the representative of SIA frowned and said: "Mr. Gu, it is understandable for your company's products to enter the North American market, but the two cannot be confused, we are not the North American Ministry of Commerce, and we do not have the right to ......."
Gu Chengcheng interrupted him and said, "But you're a North American company, aren't you?" That's enough. I buy your products, you buy my products, it's a fair trade, it's a win-win situation. ”
For a while, the two sides were deadlocked here.
There is no doubt that this meeting and negotiation did not make any substantial progress, Frank Kuidong and others left expressionlessly, and were surrounded by a large group of reporters just after leaving Tianqing Company.
"This is the "AFP" reporter is now reporting that we found that Huaguo Tianqing Technology Co., Ltd. is suspected of having the first private negotiation with North American semiconductor manufacturers, just now the presidents of ARM and MEAS companies left the headquarters of Tianqing Company, but everyone refused to accept any interviews and had a solemn expression when they left, and the suspected negotiation and negotiation may not have achieved the desired results......"
A French female reporter stood at the door of Tianqing Company and reported to the camera, but there was a gloating expression between the lines, and if you delved deeper, it is not difficult to understand why the French are in this mood.
How Alstom was cold back then, the French have not forgotten that from this point of view, the French are on the opposite side of the Americans.
With the reports of major media chasing after the wind and shadows, it has also caused widespread discussion on the Internet, but in any case, the head of the North American company took the initiative to talk this time, which itself is a manifestation of helplessness and self-slap in the face, and the taste of compromise is self-evident.
broke up with Frank Kuidong and others, and Qiu Shiming learned that he would meet Gu Cheng again. I couldn't help but sigh lightly when I learned the result.
"Mr. Gu, what should I do next? If neither side makes concessions, how can the problem be solved? ”
Gu Cheng said leisurely: "Ride a donkey and read the record book, and we'll see." ”
