Chapter 256

In the conference room, representatives of Future Technology and Apple had a heated discussion on the licensing of flexible screen technology and lithium-air battery technology, although there was no gunsmoke, but this was as cruel as the real battlefield, they would intrigue on any clause, they would be careful about any number for a long time, and sometimes they would even quarrel over the number after the decimal point with a red face and a thick neck.

In order to protect their own interests, the representatives of Apple lost their demeanor and completely forgot that they were a so-called high-end person, so they almost rolled up their sleeves and went directly to the guy to fight, but Tang Yun took out the contract that had already been drawn up by the lawyer group here, and did not give an inch throughout the whole process, forcing Apple to compromise step by step.

If you don't compromise, you don't need to talk about it.

Meetings were held from morning to afternoon, and even lunch was settled in the conference room – a meeting that would make or break the life and death of a company, and no one dared to let up.

Tang Yun, on the other hand, is much more leisurely, and even has time to take out his mobile phone to play two games......

Her indifferent attitude made the Apple delegation even more hateful, and they finally experienced the feelings of the downstream manufacturers who had been forced to go crazy by their harsh terms.

On that day, the meeting did not come out of anything.

"They're pretty tenacious."

Song Ming raised his eyebrows: "Since that's the case, then give them another gift." ”

In the evening of the same day, Future Technology issued an announcement to clarify the rumors on the Internet.

"We welcome any company to come to inspect and cooperate, but we don't have any intention of selling the company, nor do we have any idea of accepting Apple's acquisition, any rumor that we will be acquired by Apple is fake, please don't believe it, don't spread rumors, don't believe rumors, don't spread rumors, thank you."

Not long after the announcement was issued, it immediately spread all over the Internet, causing heated discussions among netizens.

"I'll just say, how can technology be sold in the future! Fools know that they have a bright future! ”

"It's a pity that Future Technology is not a listed company, otherwise I would have to buy their shares!"

"Don't be stupid, wake up, are you sure you can buy the issue shares?"

And the media on the Eagle Country side also translated this announcement and reprinted it in the past, this is good, originally because of yesterday's news and rose against the trend, the stock price that has just risen instantly collapsed again, even more ruthless than yesterday, many retail investors have begun to compete to cut meat for self-protection, some large investors also see the good to receive, the other part is hesitant, planning to continue to wait and see.

This wait-and-see is two points gone.

Lose your marbles!

The people in the stock exchange of Torch City have gone completely crazy staring at the chart of Apple, such a strong and strong stock, it is such an avalanche!

At this time, a mysterious account took advantage of this opportunity to start buying the bottom and quietly pocketed all the stocks that were sold......

"Today, the stock market just opened and there was an avalanche, and now our securities analysts have found out that someone is buying the bottom, and now they have become the largest retail shareholder in the market, but we don't even know who this person is!"

"He now holds more than 0.5 percent of his shares, and as things stand, I have no doubt that there will be a new individual shareholder."

"Although the timing of this person's appearance was good and helped us catch our breath, why did I have a sense of foreboding? Are there so many stocks held by retail investors? ”

"Gentlemen, we have to talk openly and honestly, have you ever sold your own stocks?"

There was an eerie silence in the conference room, and after a moment, a shareholder said lightly: "I sold 1% of my personal shares in the morning." ”

"Mr. Harman!? Why!? ”

"Why, you ask me? In the past few days, the stock price has plummeted, and my personal assets have shrunk by a billion dollars! You can still carry it, I can't carry it! ”

"I also sold 0.5%."

"I sold 0.3%."

Some people started it, and others confessed one after another, and the final statistics showed that all the shareholders present had a total of nearly 3.5% of their shares today!

Oh, my God!

When this number was learned, everyone turned pale.

"Are you crazy? Why are they all sold!? Harman, who spoke at the beginning, was the one who was the most fearful, "The collective sell-off of shareholders will cause a chain reaction!" ”

"What are you talking about, obviously you sell the most!"

"I thought I was going to sell it myself! Who would have thought that you would all sell them all! ”

"Damn it! Worse! Cook's side must reach a deal with Future Technology as soon as possible! We need good news that will stimulate the stock market! ”

"Contact him as soon as possible! It can't be dragged on any longer! ”

The next day, Cook, who had dark circles under his eyes, came to Future Technology again with his team, and the first thing he said when he saw Tang Yun was "You have won".

Tang Yun smiled slightly: "This is a matter of course. ”

"Now I just want to know, is it your people who are buying bottoms in the stock market?"

Even if the stock price falls, it is not possible for ordinary people to eat so many stocks.

Tang Yun spread his hands: "Who knows?" ”

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the Apple delegation finally completely compromised, and they could no longer afford to drag it out.

They can only accept the harsh conditions proposed by future technology.

"It's the most demanding contract I've ever signed in my life." Cook's eyes were bloodshot, "I'm going to be a disgrace to Apple." ”

Tang Yun was still smiling: "But if you successfully renew its life, at least you can let it live for a few more years." Happy to work with. ”

"Not at all pleasant."

Although Cook said this, he still shook hands with Tang Yun.

Under the contract, Apple will pay $5 billion a year to FutureTech for exclusive access to flexible screens and lithium-air battery technology in overseas markets, limited to mobile phones and laptops.

He endured!

And that's just the right to use.

To produce flexible screens and lithium-air batteries, the corresponding production lines must be purchased from Future Technology, the price of a flexible screen production line is as high as 100 million US dollars, and the price of a lithium-air battery production line is as high as 500 million US dollars! And because there is no production technology for core materials, in order to produce lithium-air batteries, it is necessary to buy the core materials of lithium-air batteries from Future Technology, and the pricing of this core material is even more outrageous, reaching $100 per gram, which is more expensive than gold!

He had to endure it!

Although only a small amount of core material is required to coat each lithium-air battery, the high price of the material still makes Cook's heart bleed, so after thinking about it for a long time, they finally made a decision - to temporarily abandon the construction line and buy customized finished products directly from Future Technology.

And then...... The earliest delivery time given by Tang Yun is until March next year.

He continued to endure it!

At the same time, because of the partnership, Future Technology can develop conversion software for the future window system of Sugon mobile phones, which allows users to convert the software in the Apple App Store and continue to use it in Sugon mobile phones.

Leaving aside the question of whether it is technically feasible - this is simply a naked digging of Apple's lifeblood in front of you!

But...... Cook still has to endure!

After the overseas version of the Sugon mobile phone is launched, Apple must cooperate with the promotion of Future Technology, and at the same time share its own sales channels, including retail stores and after-sales service outlets, for Future Technology to use......

Damn, this is for Apple to raise the Dawning mobile phone as its own son!

I can't take it anymore - I have to put up with it!

Even with Cook's cultivation, his heart beat faster several times and his blood pressure increased and he almost went berserk, but for the sake of Apple, he could only endure and accept those harsh terms!

When Cook signed his name on the contract, he couldn't help but think that when those people in the history of the flower family signed the treaty of loss of power and humiliation of the country, I am afraid that the mood was just like this, right?

Obviously, the other party made it clear that he wanted to eat himself, but he still had to work hard to squeeze out a smile and thank the other party for letting him live......

Cook's heart was filled with humiliation and unwillingness.

He couldn't help but think that after he went back, this CEO would be left to someone else......

By the time the name is signed, Apple's short more than ten years of glory will almost come to an end.

Next, it is the era of future science and technology, and the era of flower growers.

Tang Yun said with a smile: "Is Liz a reporter from the Torch Daily?" Let's take a picture of this historic moment. ”

Adele readily agreed, and captured this moment with a camera prepared by Future Technology.

Then Cook wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and hurriedly said, "Liz, now you rush to the manuscript immediately, and be sure to send this news back before five o'clock." ”

At about half past six o'clock on the Eagle Country's side, the stock exchange opened, and the decline in stock prices must be curbed as soon as possible!

Adele blinked: "Don't you think I'm annoyed now?" ”

"Don't bother! Please! ”

Adele touched her smooth and delicate skin, and said with a sad face: "But I've been running around and I'm tired, and I've been working overtime and the pay is low, I have no money to buy skin care products, and my skin has become rough......

Cook looked at her through gritted teeth: "Me! To give! You! One! Hundred! Ten thousand! ””

“OK！”

Adele was satisfied, and immediately took out a tablet and started working.

Then Cook looked at Tang Yun again: "Mr. Tang, look, since we have reached a cooperative relationship, do you want to explain it on the official website of Future Technology?" ”

Tang Yun knew that he was about to be driven crazy by the continuously falling stock price, so he smiled and nodded: "Of course, I'll arrange it." ”

After calling Liu Keyi over and whispering a few words, Liu Keyi nodded and left quickly.

It was only at this time that Cook finally relaxed his tense nerves and could breathe a sigh of relief.

Although the acquisition was not successful, only a cooperation was reached, but people from the outside world did not know the specific details of the cooperation.

Soon, a news item appeared on the official website of Future Technology.

"Warmly celebrate the strategic partnership between Future Technology and Eagle Country Apple! 》

Short news stories of hundreds of words spread around the world along the web at incredible speed, appearing on the front pages of major media outlets.

Then, on the Torch Stock Exchange, which had just opened, the shareholders who had originally held Apple shares and had been urgently sold were shocked to find that Apple's shares were going up like crazy!

Just broke through yesterday's opening price high in an instant!

Every time the market is refreshed, you can see that it is still continuing to rise!

The one who cuts the flesh wept.

Those who persevered laughed.

And Apple's shareholders who cashed out their shares yesterday ...... I want to jump off a building now.

Just one. Night Kung Fu, one in and one out, they lost tens of billions of dollars!

And the only big winner in this stock market turmoil...... There is only one.
