Chapter 237 Mutual Licensing of Technology Patents?!

For the production of military chips, Lin Chen actually has some scruples.

Because Zhongxin International was able to purchase a lot of advanced equipment, but promised that it would never produce military chips, it can be seen how much attention and vigilance foreign countries attach to this aspect.

If Dawning Technology produces military chips openly, then the iron fist of global suppression may have to bombard Dawning Technology.

Therefore, it is okay to produce military chips, but it cannot be produced secretly, and it cannot even be detected by outsiders.

Of course, Ren Zhengfei at this time did not talk about military chips in detail, but changed the topic and directly said the purpose of this meeting:

"This time we came here to actually take a fancy to the unique chip production technology mastered by your company, after all, for our communications industry, the super good chip constitution represents super stability."

Facing Ren Zhengfei, who was straight to the point, Lin Chen pondered for a moment, and then said with a smile:

"350 nm and 180 nm are easy to say, but the yield rate of 130 nm may not be available until around mid-September."

"Yes, most of our Huawei technology currently uses 180nm and 350nm process technology, and 130nm chips only account for a small part."

After all, it is the communication industry, and the most important thing in the communication industry is stability.

The advanced means the unknown, the unknown represents instability, and the communications industry does not pursue the absolute strongest performance.

Enterprises in the communication industry usually produce chips on a small scale using the most advanced process technology for communication chips.

Then when I see that the newly designed communication chip is quite stable, it will be replaced by large-scale production, and so on in turn.

Therefore, at present, most of the chips of Huawei Technology are made of mature and stable 180nm process technology, and although there are 130nm communication chips, they are not mainstream at present, but they are only produced on a small scale for market experiments.

"Mr. Ren Zhengfei, I welcome your company's chip foundry, but I think we also have other places to cooperate in addition to chip foundry."

Lin Chen stated the purpose of his personal meeting.

If the simple chip foundry negotiation was actually handed over to someone else, there was no need for Lin Chen to waste two hours receiving him personally.

The "other cooperation" proposed by Lin Chen this time actually hides a conspiracy against Huawei Technology, and also contains the strategic arrangement of Shuguang Technology for the future global mobile phone industry, which will have a far-reaching impact.

"Cooperation in other areas?"

Ren Zhengfei looked at Lin Chen with raised eyebrows, not knowing what else the two sides could cooperate with.

In this regard, Lin Chen paused slightly, and then slowly spoke:

"Our current communication chips of Shuguang Technology are to purchase other people's communication chips, and the cost of this model is quite high, and it can be said that most of the profits have been earned by others.

Your company has a lot of 2G GSM and 3G WCDMA and other mobile communication technology patents, although the total proportion of these communication technology patents in the world does not exceed 7%, but it is also a large patent share. ”

Hearing Lin Chen's words, Ren Zhengfei nodded very complacently.

In the past 20 years, Birch Technology has never stopped developing core technologies on the way from weak to rising.

Although the core patents of 2G GSM and 3G WCDMA have been occupied by foreign companies, Huawei Technology still tore a small gap in a patent barrier wall and successfully took root.

And this is also the reason why they can make the global communication giants grit their teeth with hatred, after all, how can they become small giants in the global communications industry without their own core technology.

"I wonder how you want to cooperate?"

Yu Chengxi, who had not spoken on the side, suddenly asked about Lin Chen, and Meng Yazhou on the side also looked at Lin Chen with a curious expression.

In this regard, Lin Chen glanced at the three of them, and then said word by word:

"At present, we have no ambition to enter the 2G and 3G communication industry, because our goal is directly on the 4G mobile communication market."

Hearing this, Ren Zhengfei, Meng Yazhou, and Yu Chengxi all moved in their hearts.

But at this time, they remained silent, and did not say anything but continued to look at Lin Chen, wanting to see what Lin Chen said.

They believe that Lin Chen said that Sugon Technology is engaged in 4G mobile communication technology, because even if the employees of Sugon Technology are very loyal, they will not disclose core secrets to the outside world.

But there are not so many scruples about the less important side information, so they have vaguely heard that Sugon Technology is engaged in 4G mobile communication technology.

At this time, Lin Chen continued:

"In the short term, at least for two or three years, we will not be competitors, so I would like to reach a cooperation agreement with your company on the mutual licensing of technology patents."

"Cooperation agreement on mutual licensing of technology patents?"

Meng Yazhou, the financial director of Huawei Technology, said with a frown:

"We don't have any good technology patents to license each other."

At this time, Meng Yazhou didn't think that they needed any technology patents from Shuguang Technology.

After all, one of them is the communication equipment industry, and the other is the mobile phone mobile terminal industry, where do the two sides need each other's technology patents?

Moreover, it is even more difficult to accept the idea of taking out the technology patents accumulated over the years and mutual licensing with Sugon Technology.

This is all the hard work that Birch has accumulated for more than 20 years for science and technology, how can it be possible to re-authorize technology patents with others?

Although Lin Chen said that the two sides will not be competitors in two or three years, what about two or three years later?

At this time, if the technology patent is mutually authorized with Dawning Technology, wouldn't it be equivalent to luring a wolf into the house?

"No, didn't Mr. Yu Chengxi take the lead in setting up the mobile terminal department this year?"

Hearing Lin Chen's words, Ren Zhengfei, Meng Yazhou, and Yu Chengxi's faces changed.

Because of their official entry into the mobile phone industry this year, they have actually become competitors with Sugon Technology.

At this time, Lin Chen directly pointed out this point, will the cooperation of chip foundry change because of this?

"You are a company that is not willing to be ordinary, and has been keen to invest in technology research and development since its inception, and then rely on core technology to defeat many competitors.

But at this time, you have just entered the mobile phone terminal industry, and there is almost no technology in mobile phones, and it is estimated that the birch mobile phone is only an assembly machine in the past two or three years.

Our company has many core technology patents in the mobile phone industry, whether it is the operating system or the mobile phone chip, there are many unique technical patents.

So I think we can work together on this and save you a couple of years of hard work. ”

Hearing Lin Chen's words, Ren Zhengfei and Meng Yazhou frowned, but Yu Chengxi's eyes lit up, and he found that this was indeed a good opportunity.

If they really reach a cooperation with Shuguang Technology, then Huawei Technology will be able to directly ascend to the sky in one step, and it can be said that it will take at least three years of detours!
