Chapter 237: A Different Way

"Now we have adopted a relatively simple approach, we can pay a high price to buy these small companies with patented technology against large companies such as Apple, which is equivalent to directly turning their patents into our patents, and then using these patents into our new strike weapons." Du Chengyi said with a smile.

This time he said it very bluntly, Cai Siqiang completely understood it at once, and his mood couldn't help but suddenly brighten. However, there seems to be another problem, Cai Siqiang thought about it.

"But if there's such a good thing, why don't these small companies use these patents to collect huge revenues from Apple or other big companies? And why didn't those competitors just buy them up? Although Cai Siqiang understands this principle, there are still some key points that he has not figured out.

"Quite simply, first, IP litigation is one of the most expensive in the world, and without deep financial strength, it is very difficult for these small companies to survive such a protracted lawsuit with large companies. According to statistics, the average cost of each patent litigation case was only $5 million in 2007, and by 2012 the average patent litigation fee had risen to more than $10 million.

This is because IP litigation is becoming more and more complex, and the cost of protracted litigation is starting to skyrocket, and the average small company is basically unable to sustain such a huge expense.

Second, large companies are not necessarily willing to spend a lot of money on it, because there are so many small companies with innovative patented technologies that no one company has the strength to buy them all. Du Chengyi carefully explained.

"Okay, understood, I'll hold a small high-level meeting in a while, and you can talk about your ideas with everyone." Cai Siqiang nodded to indicate that he understood.

Hearing Mr. Cai say this, Du Chengyi felt a burst of ecstasy in his heart, being able to enter the core high-level meeting of Mr. Cai, even if it is an attendee, it is also a huge opportunity for himself. He desperately suppressed the joy in his heart, "Yes, boss, I have compiled a presentation document, and I can demonstrate it to the leaders at the meeting later." ”

"Oh, good." Cai Siqiang said approvingly. "Good job."

When Du Chengyi heard Mr. Cai's last sentence, he knew that from today onwards, he could be regarded as truly entering the boss's field of vision.

Although he had tried his best to suppress the ecstasy in his heart, the joyful posture he walked with and the joy that could not be concealed from his eyebrows betrayed his inner thoughts at the moment.

"Assistant Du, what are you so happy about?" Cai Siqiang's secretary Gao Fengling watched Du Chengyi come out with a happy face, and couldn't help but ask curiously. "You brought bad news to the boss, and the boss didn't lose his temper?"

"Don't talk nonsense, Secretary Gao, how can the boss be that kind of person." Du Chengyi replied. "I think the boss is in a good mood."

As for why it's good, Du Chengyi won't say anything about it at this time. Not to mention that this involves an extremely confidential business plan of SAL, it is more likely to become a key point of life and death for the new Nokia Mobile.

"God is mysterious. I don't know how to engage in a famous temple. Secretary Gao said a little stupidly.

In the past few days, in the face of Cai Siqiang's cold face, several secretaries in the office are actually a little uneasy, and it is rare to see Assistant Du coming out of the boss's room with a happy face. It's just that Assistant Du, who used to be easy to talk, doesn't seem to want to say it today.

However, since the boss is in a good mood, it's good, so that everyone's life is better, and it doesn't matter if you know the inside story.

An hour later. Facing several real bosses of SAL sitting in the small conference room, especially the big boss Duke, Du Chengyi couldn't help but feel a little dry when he stood next to the computer. Although the main idea has been explained to Cai Siqiang and has been praised by Boss Cai, in the end, it will not be successful, and it will be Dr. Duke from his own family who will make the final decision.

Du Chengyi took a sip of water, sorted out his surging mood, and began to talk about his thoughts from beginning to end.

After the lecture, there was silence in the conference room. It was so quiet that Du Chengyi could even hear the sound of the laptop fan.

The scene is too weird, I don't agree, everyone is making a statement. Du Chengyi's heartbeat was directly accelerated by this silent result, and his heart seemed to be hanging in mid-air.

After waiting for a while, as if digesting this new idea, Duke, Dong Feng and Zhao Jianwu glanced at each other.

Then they applauded together.

"Okay, this path can be described as a different way, the sword goes sideways, and I think the idea of Chengyi is very reliable." Duke said a word, pulling back Du Chengyi's heart that was hanging in the air.

This result can be described as a strange peak, and suddenly found a third option in the desperate road, although it is not yet known what the final result will be, but after all, there is a new choice, and it is indeed a new way to find a new way.

"I think the acquisition of patents is led by Cheng Yi, this is his idea, should be more thoughtful, about the acquirer, I insert, do not use the name of our current company, just set up some new investment institutions, such as to Europe, the United States, Bermuda, etc., to register, as far as possible to make the movement of things smaller. Avoid adding unnecessary resistance. Duke followed these words and immediately sent Du Chengyi to the other side of happiness.

However, although the big boss spoke, Du Chengyi still looked nervously at the other bigwigs present, although he knew that Duke's words had always worked, but this matter was very important after all.

According to his original assumption, what happened to this matter is that Dong Feng and Zhao Jianwu chose one of the two to preside over in the center, he can serve as a deputy and actually deal with specific affairs, this is very good, if this matter is done, the credit will be really there, and if there is a chance in the future, the boss will naturally take into account himself.

Who knew that things were even better than he imagined, and the big boss actually promoted himself directly to the point of being in charge. If you can really take responsibility for getting this thing done, then the situation will be completely different, and you will most likely enter the real core layer of SAL.

Although he has been a senior executive in a foreign company such as the president of China, these big foreign bosses have never regarded themselves as their own, and his role as president of China sounds very imposing, but in fact he has very little power, and on the surface he has full responsibility for the Chinese market, but he does not have enough power to make decisions for this responsibility.

Procedurally, Du Chengyi first reports to the President of Greater China, who then reports to the President of the Asia Pacific Region, and then the President of the Asia Pacific Region reports to the Vice President of Marketing and Sales of the head office. Every step is hierarchical and insurmountable, and as a result of such layers of communication, there is still much autonomy.

So in terms of actual power, he, the president of China, is more like the director of the company's China office. So when Cai Siqiang extended an olive branch to him, after careful consideration, Du Chengyi resolutely decided to come to this private enterprise in the grassroots.

Du Chengyi was very excited by the rapid development of SAL, but Du Chengyi had always lacked an opportunity to enter the core management of SAL.

Now that the opportunity has suddenly come, is it just that Mr. Cai and the other two CEOs can rest assured? Will they object? Happiness came too suddenly, and Du Chengyi also suffered some gains and losses for a while, and he couldn't calm down.
