Leaving the conference room, Shirakawa Kaede followed Kozo Osone towards the elevator in the hallway.

"Ding" The elevator door opened, and the two stepped into the elevator one after the other.

Because they had just confronted each other at the negotiation table, the two were alone at the moment, and the atmosphere was a little dull.

"Shirakawa-san, a word of advice for you. Going against Sony is a very unwise choice, especially for a fledgling club.

Today is a rare opportunity to cooperate with Sony, and please don't make a mistake with Shirakawa-san. ”

For Shirakawa Electric, Kozo Osone thinks he has given enough face.

It's okay to buy a patent for 1.3 billion, and as for Shirakawa Electric Appliances, it can also make a profit by selling Walkmans.

So what, as soon as I collect my local patents, you can't sell one, and in the end it is not the fate of bankruptcy.

In Kozo Osone's view, the other party is just not satisfied and wants to make a windfall.

Even at the beginning, Kozo Osone advocated that he should sell it directly overseas regardless of Shirakawa Electric's patents.

However, the high-level management is also worried about their reputation, and they are also worried that doing so will make the other party have the idea of breaking the net.

Sell the patents directly to overseas local companies, and in that case, Sony will be in even more trouble.

Hearing Kozo Osone's words, Shirakawa Kaede smiled, "Thanks to Osone-san's reminder, Shirakawa welcomes any friendly communication and cooperation. ”

Cooperate? Yes. But the acquisition of such a cooperation is quite unfriendly, at least for Shirakawa Electric.

And the offer just now was too insincere, and the reason why Shirakawa Kaede wanted to see Norio Ohga may not have the intention of changing people to talk.

Kozo Osone didn't say anything about Shirakawa Kaede's point-in-point reply.

He tugged at the corners of his mouth and smiled meaninglessly, sometimes it wasn't necessarily a good thing to be acquired.

"Ding" The elevator door opened again, and when he came out of the elevator, Shirakawa Kaede only felt that his vision suddenly opened up.

The corridors here face the outside walls and are replaced by patches of glass curtain walls.

Standing here in Tokyo, there is a constant flow of people and vehicles, and the high-rise buildings are scattered all over the place.

Sure enough, it is close to the top of Sony, just standing here, the kind of heroism that wants to take the world into your arms is spontaneously born.

However, such a stunning view was only for a short moment, and soon Kozo Osone knocked on an office door with him.

"Click" an assistant opened the door and bent down to signal them to enter.

After nodding to each other, Shirakawa Kaede also walked into the office.

Contrary to what you imagined, the decoration style of this office is not strong business style.

On the contrary, Shirakawa Kaede even feels that the setting here is full of art.

As it turned out, on the desk in front of me, there were pictures of various classical music performances live.

And the protagonist in the photo, without exception, is Norio Ohga, who is sitting behind the desk in front of him.

has a Chinese face, a pair of gold-wire glasses, and there is no seriousness and majesty on his face.

On the contrary, when Shirakawa Kaede looked over, the other party was also looking at him with a smile.

"Shirakawa Kaede, I'm sorry to disturb Ohga-san, please bear with me."

For the actual controller of Sony at this time, Shirakawa Kaede still has an admiration in his heart.

"Shirakawa-san is really young and promising, and I've long wanted to see what kind of young man can stump Sony.

Since you're here today, let's just put everything together and talk about it, please take a seat. ”

Norio Oga has both a cheerful and enthusiastic side, but also a shrewd businessman.

He speaks with a frankness, but it is by no means a lack of indulgence.

He gave Shirakawa Kaede a very different feeling, at least from the seriousness, coldness, and decisiveness of the imaginary person at the helm of a large enterprise.

With a hint of inquiry, Shirakawa Kaede readily agreed, and the two came to the spacious and bright reception area and sat opposite each other on the sofa.

On the side, Kozo Osone accompanies him, and the assistant goes to prepare coffee.

"Regarding the matter of patents, Shirakawa-san has any suggestions, so let's say it directly.

Presumably, he didn't come to see me to quarrel with me.

Sony is not a company that is so domineering that it can't even listen to suggestions for cooperation, but the premise of all of this must be reasonable. ”

Norio Oga was clearly aware of their dispute in the conference room.

So just open your mouth to remind you, and those meaningless words don't have to be repeated.

He wanted to hear valuable advice, but it had to be "reasonable" and not just a spurious one.

And Shirakawa Feng can sit here, which is also a recognition of Shirakawa Electric's strength.

Negotiation, to put it bluntly, is a means that will be used when each other can't help each other.

Shirakawa Kaede nodded, and he naturally understood the other meaning in Ohga Norixiong's words.

"Sony wants overseas markets, and Shirakawa Electric wants to develop locally. The two are not contradictory, on the contrary, they have one thing in common. ”

"Oh?" Norio Ohga took a sip of coffee, revealing an interested look, "Shirakawa-san might as well talk about it, what is the common denominator?" ”

Shirakawa Kaede glanced at him, then at Kozo Osone beside him, and said with a smile.

"Both Sony and Shirakawa Electric want a business environment that will never go wrong.

Enterprises can let go of their worries and operate the market wholeheartedly.

Shirakawa feels that this is the most ideal, or the most desirable business environment for a company. ”

Norio Ohga glanced at Shirakawa Kaede with some surprise, this young man is very confident.

At the same time, he couldn't help but secretly praise this sentence.

Be able to let go of your worries and run the market wholeheartedly. For many companies, this is indeed the ideal situation.

However, the premise is that the company has its own creativity, or R&D capabilities.

When you are confident in your products, then a business environment where you have no worries and let your products shine is your greatest help.

For Sony, this sentence is indeed what it desires, because its R&D capabilities are indeed worthy of anyone at this moment.

But for Shirakawa Electric, Norio Ohga smiled and looked at the figure opposite.

Shirakawa Kaede's heart was hot, he knew what Norio Ohga wanted to say.

It is nothing more than Shirakawa Electric following behind Sony and launching the Walkman. Then what he just said is a little ironic.

But none of this is a matter for the thick-skinned Shirakawa Kaede.

"Ohga-san, although Shirakawa Electric started late, it is not without its own ideas."

Norio Ohga nodded, this is also true, at least the other party's earbuds are still very thoughtful.

There are some people in the company who have suggested that Sony also launch a similar style of headphones.

If you think about it like this, you are all half a pound and eight taels, and you have innovation, but you also think about each other's good things.

Shirakawa-san is right, both Sony and Shirakawa Electric want to have a business environment that will never be troubled. So..."

Norio Ohga looked at Shirakawa Kaede and wanted to hear what kind of advice he would come up with next.

Is such a suggestion worth it, Sony abandoned the idea of acquisition.

"So..., we both grant patents to each other!" Shirakawa Kaede said word by word.

"Reciprocal patenting?"

Not only Norio Oga, but even Kozo Osone, who had not spoken, was taken aback.

"That's right, Sony authorizes Shirakawa to patent patents in the domestic market, and Shirakawa authorizes Sony's patents in overseas markets."

Norio Ohga's eyes lit up, this seems to be okay.

It's just that it sounds like Sony has taken advantage of it. After all, the scale of the overseas market and the local market cannot match at all.

Will the other party be so kind? Oga Norio looked at Shirakawa Kaede suspiciously.

Although it was the first time they met, based on what he had just said, Norio Oga could conclude that Shirakawa Kaede was by no means the one who suffered the loss.

Sure enough, Shirakawa Feng added with a smile, "Of course, considering the disparity between the two markets, Shirakawa Electric needs 100 million points of compensation." ”
