Knowing Nokia's current financial embarrassment of internal confidential information, Cai Siqiang, who was calm, looked like he was sitting firmly in the Diaoyutai, not at all worried about the situation that Nokia did not respond at all, and he did what he should do, judging from the current financial situation of Nokia, Time Tietie is on his side, so he doesn't need to worry at all.

Nokia's management still seemed to be very patient, and this wait was enough to make Cai Siqiang wait for a week.

"It's hard to believe that Nokia really has the possibility of selling its mobile phone business." Lu Yunpeng, who received Nokia's response, still couldn't hide his surprise on the phone, "I just received a message from Sampson. Henry is looking forward to a formal meeting with Mr. Cai. Lu Yunpeng continued.

He is in the venture capital business, unlike professional M&A service companies, which conduct very in-depth research on every listed company in the market today, so his understanding of Nokia's current financial difficulties is far less in-depth than that of professionals. So when I received the slightest news that Nokia was willing to talk about mergers and acquisitions, I felt that all this was a bit incredible.

Although Sampus did not mention the merger at all, since Sampus conveyed the intention of SAL acquisition to Nokia's senior management, Nokia is still willing to negotiate with SAL, so it means that this acquisition is also optional.

"Thank you, Mr. Lu, thank you so much. What is the next specific operation process, and does President Sampson have any good suggestions? Cai Siqiang asked.

"Regarding the specific place and time of the meeting with Vice President Terry, Sampson said that he would discuss it with you and see when it is convenient for both sides." Lu Yunpeng said.

Now that the negotiations have been agreed, it is basically a small detail in terms of time and place, so Sampson has no special requirements.

"Okay, Mr. Lu, do you think this will work, the venue for the negotiation is in Beijing, and the time is determined by President Sampson?" Cai Siqiang thought about it and made such a suggestion.

This happens to be a neutral treatment, and no one will suffer.

"I don't think there's a problem, but I'll contact Sampson later, and then we can have a short video conference on Skype to settle the matter." Lu Yunpeng said happily.

To be honest, Lu Yunpeng agrees with and is optimistic about SAL's acquisition of Nokia's mobile phone business, which is an area where venture capital has been observing and preparing to enter, but there has been no good opportunity.

According to Lu Yunpeng's understanding of SAL, in terms of mobile phones, SAL now not only has the full voice intelligent control technology that amazed the industry last year, but also is said to have developed a new type of display screen.

According to the sporadic information released by Cai Siqiang on SAL Weibo, the display accuracy of this new display exceeds that of all current products, with movie-like high-definition performance.

And the mobile phone hardware team recruited by Dr. Duke, the technical director of SAL, from the United States motorcycle and Apple and other companies with high salaries, is working day and night to design a so-called new mobile phone.

Considering the amazing performance of the Sirius-1 navigator, Lu Yunpeng is very much looking forward to SAL, a company with amazing creativity, and hopes that SAL's mobile phone will also have the same amazing performance.

As far as the current situation is concerned, if the navigator business is booming and Lu Yunpeng no longer has to worry about his investment shrinking, then the real opportunity to make a lot of money, Lu Yunpeng still thinks that it will be on the mobile phone.

Therefore, Lu Yunpeng, who has always been very concerned about SAL's mobile phone business, although he is full of confidence in SAL's products, he is also very clear and worried about SAL's shortcomings in making mobile phones.

Because as a mass consumer product, brands and channels cannot be established and perfected overnight, and selling mobile phones and selling brainwave telekinetic helmets are two completely different concepts.

First of all, the sales volume of the two is not in the same order of magnitude, and secondly, the consumer groups are very different, so the brainwave telekinetic helmet can be shipped through e-commerce channels through some kind of hype.

However, if the mobile phone also adopts this way, it is expected that it can rely solely on the network channel to complete the sale, which is basically equivalent to self-isolation in front of the majority of users, in the mobile phone sales, the network can only occupy a part of the sales channel shipment, and it is a relatively small part, most of them need to be sold through mobile phone stores or electrical appliance malls and operator channels.

This complex channel system is obviously not available in SAL.

As for the brand disadvantage, it is even more obvious,In the eyes of most users,SAL is a software company that started with voice input method,Even if the voice input method has accumulated a certain popularity among computer and mobile phone users,It also gives people the impression of a software company。

Although SAL's acquisition of TOMTOM to make a navigator has also attracted some attention, after all, this piece is already an independent brand in operation, and it has nothing to do with SAL.

It's not that there is no precedent for a software company to make mobile phones, but it is very easy to criticize in terms of professionalism.

Especially now when most sales have to go through salesman promotions, as long as the competitor's terminal salesperson tilts his mouth, "SAL? That company may be okay to do input methods, but this is a completely different thing for a mobile phone, and the quality can be compared with Samsung? Think about the mobile phones made by Internet companies in the past two years, and there are several quality ones. ”

Therefore, Lu Yunpeng feels that SAL's disadvantage in the brand is more huge than that of the channel.

The acquisition of Nokia can make up for these two shortcomings in an instant. As for production capacity and patents, although they are also important considerations, in Lu Yunpeng's view, the importance of brands and channels is always worse.

Although Lu Yunpeng still knows nothing about SAL having its own mobile phone operating system, he does not know that SAL has made a relatively thorough avoidance of software in terms of patents.

As soon as the phone was put down, Lu Yunpeng connected to Samps and told him about it, and soon the three of them went to Skype to negotiate on the matter of negotiation, and there was nothing to say about this preparation and coordination, since everyone was willing to talk about it, Sampson had no opinion on setting the meeting place in Beijing, and the time was set for the morning after tomorrow.

After all, it takes about ten hours to fly from Helsinki to Beijing, and Vice President Terry can't just get off the plane to participate in the negotiations. As for the negotiation hotel, Lu Yunpeng helped arrange it at the Wang Fu Hotel, which is a five-star hotel with very good conditions, it is said that the Western food is authentic, and the chef level from France is second to none in Beijing, and I think Tere, who is French, will like it.

As soon as this matter was negotiated, Cai Siqiang took the acquisition team that had already been prepared the next day: Dong Feng, overseas M&A director Zhan Shaofeng, acquisition consultant Merkel from Europe, and Du Chengyi, Cai Siqiang's overseas affairs assistant and translator, and a group of five people went to Beijing to prepare to meet with Tere. Henry's negotiations.
