Chapter 266: Panasonic's Conditions

"Okay, Shirakawa agrees to the deal. So what is your so-called difference compensation? ”

Although disappointed, Shirakawa Kaede still agreed to Panasonic's request.

And seeing him agree, Kubori couldn't help but smile that everything was under control.

"Considering that the battery technology we provide is a complete manufacturing process, in addition to the technology license, your company should also compensate for the price difference of 200 million yen."

200 million yen? How dare you make an offer.

Shirakawa Feng sighed helplessly, "20 million, in addition, Panasonic will also send someone to guide the construction of Shirakawa Electric's production line until the product is off the assembly line normally." ”

"Shirakawa-san, this is battery technology.

This represents an industry of the future, and it must be of great value to Shirakawa Electric. ”

Kubori, who is not giving up, is still emphasizing that he has paid for the real manufacturing process, and wants to negotiate more compensation on this basis.

"Kubo Rissan, the future of batteries is in nickel-metal hydride energy, and nickel-cadmium batteries have limited prospects.

In addition, Shirakawa Electric's patent licensing fee is definitely a good deal compared to Panasonic's huge production capacity in the future. ”

Shirakawa Kaede didn't bother to deal with him anymore, and directly explained the essence of the so-called battery technology, as well as the comparison of what the two sides paid for.

"Well, the contemptible will try to get such conditions from the headquarters." Kubori agreed with embarrassment.

"Then please leave it to Kubo Risang", since the other party borrowed the slope to get off the donkey, then Shirakawa Kaede must also be aggressive, and gave the other party a step.

"Certainly, the contemptible people have long said that Panasonic is willing to cooperate with other clubs in business."

In fact, the conditions negotiated had already exceeded the expectations of the headquarters, so Kubo agreed without any psychological pressure.

Just when Bai Chuanfeng felt that things were about the same, the other party suddenly changed the topic again and changed to another direction.

"By the way, I heard that your affiliated club, SIC, is carrying out chip business?"

Well? Shirakawa Kaede's heart was immediately alert.

"It's still in the initial stage, which makes Kubo Risan smile. Don't know how you found out about this? ”

Shirakawa Kaede snorted and probed the other party's source at the same time.

Kubori smiled mysteriously, "Panasonic has cooperative relations with many research institutes, and our technicians have a very good evaluation of SIC chips after using them." ”

Institute? I see.

Presumably, the chip that Heitaro Nakajima gave to some national research institutes for trial fell into the hands of Matsushita.

That's why Kubori is now tempted, and he has become even more energetic after learning about SIC's grass-roots creation.

"The club is just starting out and needs a lot of R&D funding. If Shirakawa-san is in difficulty, Panasonic can provide all-round assistance.

Whether it's financing or technical assistance, we are strong enough to help you. ”

Panasonic also has a business in semiconductors, which is why Kubo is so confident.

"Thanks to Kubo Risso's care, SIC is currently cooperating with Fujitsu and is able to cope with it for the time being.

Of course, if there is a demand in the future, we will also consider Panasonic as soon as possible. ”

The dog noses of these giant companies are too smart, SIC has just tried to introduce it to the market, and it is not really commercial, and the other party smelled it and came.

Looking at Kubori's reaction just now, Shirakawa Kaede even suspected that the other party came to talk about battery cooperation with Shirakawa Electric just to add to it, and SIC was their real goal.

When he heard about the cooperation between SIC and Fujitsu, Kuboli could not hide his disappointment.

"I see, that's a pity."

It's a pity that Fujitsu was the first to board, and when you think about it, Panasonic is still a little far from Tokyo after all.

Such a potential club will be targeted by peers early.

At this time, he didn't know that Shirakawa Kaede's so-called cooperation with Fujitsu was only to jointly develop the CPU processor of Fujitsu's next-generation computer.

It was not the financing he imagined, and SIC became Fujitsu's promoter.

But Shirakawa Kaede didn't lie, it was indeed a cooperation, and of course he wouldn't explain anything.

Pulling Fujitsu over and pulling the banner always dispelled the idea that Panasonic should not have.

"In that case, then let's take our leave."

Things were pretty much discussed, and Kubori and Kusaichi Kawaguchi also got up to leave.

"Risa-kubo, Kawaguchi-san, if you can, please stay in Tokyo for two more days."

Unexpectedly, seeing that they were about to leave, Shirakawa Kaede enthusiastically retained it.

Kubori was a little unclear, but it was Kawaguchi Nanichi who answered the call skillfully.

"Osaka is busy with work, and Tokyo can't stay long."

"That's why I want to enjoy the sights of Tokyo."

Bai Chuanfeng looked at them with a look of pity, "The two of you are just too involved in their work."

It's hard to come to Tokyo once, so why don't you go to Roppongi? You say yes, Kawaguchi-san? ”

Shirakawa Kaede looked at Nanichi Kawaguchi with an expression that you understand.

"Ahem" Kawaguchi Nanichi pretended to frown, "Shirakawa-san said the same, I have indeed been a little tired recently. ”

"So," Shirakawa Kaede immediately followed the conversation, "Please let the contemptible people do their best to be a landlord, and take the two of you to appreciate the difference between Roppongi and Tobita Shinchi." ”

Speaking of which, even Kubori, who is not very familiar with Tokyo, can tell what is going on.

Roppongi may not know much about him, but Tobita Shinchi does.

This is one of the must-visit neighborhoods in Osaka for a man, and Kubori is naturally a frequent visitor there.

If it can be as famous as Tobita Shinchi, then I think this Roppongi can also look forward to it.

"Hmm~ Since Shirakawa-san was graciously invited, then the contemptible and Kawaguchi-san would be disrespectful."

Pretending not to understand the mystery, Kubori, Shi Shiran agreed to Shirakawa Kaede's invitation.

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say" Shirakawa Kaede glanced at Hasegawa beside him.

The latter immediately greeted him warmly and prepared to take two guests from Osaka to experience a Roppongi dragon.

"Oh yes," Shirakawa Kaede seemed to have just remembered something, and he lowered his head to Kubori's side and whispered.

"Regarding battery technology, Panasonic's discarded formula there may as well be copied for Shirakawa Electric as a reference.

Please rest assured that some information will be personally delivered to the two of them to ensure that nothing goes wrong. ”

What is the cost of the material? Personally? Infallible?

Kubori instantly activated the element perception and captured the keyword.

"Ahem, it's just a scrapped manuscript, it's not worth mentioning.

Naturally, I promised Shirakawa-san to guide your company's battery production, so it is natural to make a separate note or two for common small mistakes.

When the time comes, these will all be transferred to you, and nothing will be missing. ”

"That's great, oh, Roppongi at night."

"Yo Xi, see you in the evening."

Looking at the backs of the two leaving, Shirakawa Kaede finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"President, are we really going to make nickel-cadmium batteries?" Yasuda, who had not spoken, quietly walked over.

Even a layman knows that nickel-cadmium seems to be about to fall behind.

Yasuda has also read a lot of news about nickel-metal hydride batteries and even lithium batteries published in newspapers.

Now to make nickel-cadmium batteries, it seems that the future is unclear.

"Yes, of course. It is precisely because of backwardness that Panasonic is willing to sell to us. ”

How Shirakawa Kaede didn't understand this truth, but Shirakawa Electric started from scratch.

If you want to enter the battery industry, there is a mature and complete set of processes, which is the best choice for entering the industry quickly.

It doesn't matter if you are a little behind, getting the entrance ticket is the most important thing for Shirakawa Electric now.

And although the nickel-cadmium battery is about to set sunset, it is still no problem to hold on for a few more years.

With the buffer of these years, the accumulation of technology and then into the nickel-metal hydride battery and even the lithium battery in the future, isn't there a foundation?

As for nickel-metal hydride batteries, this is the bottom of the box that Panasonic will use to focus on the household battery market in the future.

How could it be easily handed over to Shirakawa Electric, and it would not be possible to give money.

What can be traded must be technology that is at least one generation behind.

Moreover, the technical threshold of nickel-cadmium batteries is not too high, and what can really become an obstacle is a large amount of start-up capital.

It just so happens that the capital is not a difficult thing for Shirakawa Electric, as long as Shirakawa Feng is willing to invest, it will definitely be able to smash out a qualified nickel-cadmium battery.

This is also one of the reasons why Panasonic is willing to sell it to Shirakawa Electric, since it can't become a technical barrier, and it's about to fall behind, it's better to buy some money.

Seeing that Yasuda is still distressed about his own technology and large funds.

Shirakawa Kaede couldn't help but smile and comfort him, "Don't worry, Yasuda-san, nickel-cadmium batteries are not without potential." ”

"Eh" Yasuda looked at Shirakawa Kaede in surprise, didn't he say a good sunset industry.

"There's really limited potential for the current formulation. But who says the current formula is the limit? ”

At least Shirakawa Kaede knew that there was still a battery in later generations, so he squeezed out some of the potential of nickel-cadmium batteries.

And it also sold well, and even later most Walkmans, portable CD players, and digital cameras used this special battery design.

It lasts for a few years, and it can be connected to the promotion of other new batteries in the future. Perfect, seamless.

"What does the president mean that the formula of nickel-cadmium batteries can continue to be optimized?"

Yasuda finally reacted that Shirakawa Kaede was willing to buy Panasonic's nickel-cadmium battery technology.

"Of course" Shirakawa Kaede smiled, which is why he took special care of Kubori and packed all of Panasonic's discarded recipes in the past.

What is the purpose? Of course, it is to avoid detours.

Perhaps the people at Panasonic could not have imagined that Shirakawa Kaede bought their technology but did not plan to try it on a large scale at all.

He wanted to gather those formula data and gather the professors of chemical physics at the East Institute of Technology to continue to develop better formula ratios.

The presence of scrapped manuscripts can save a lot of time for exclusion, allowing valuable energy to be invested in the development of unknown recipes.

Batteries are both energy, and Shirakawa Electric is just a toddler who is trying to take his first step.

Shirakawa Kaede returned to the office, but unexpectedly saw Asuka Kobayashi.

"Eh, how come Kobayashi has time to come here, don't you still want to experience the life of an assistant?"

Since being fooled by himself into becoming the Minister of Personnel, Asuka Kobayashi has been busy most of the time.

Come to think of it, the scale of thousands of people in Shirakawa Electric is busy, and a little trivial work is concentrated.

And hearing Shirakawa Kaede's mouth, Asuka Kobayashi uncharacteristically did not quarrel with him.

Instead, he turned his head to look at him and smiled, "Okay." ”

"Huh?" Kaede Shirakawa's eyes widened.
