"Oh, it's selling well! 300 billion dollars? You are robbing, naked and robbing."
"Mr. Xu Zhenming, our IBM group company will not accept your extortion!"
"Hi...300 billion dollars? Mr. Xu Zhenming, you don't seem to be sincere?"
When Xu Zhenming finished talking about the minimum requirements, the representatives of Big Blue looked at him in amazement, thinking that Xu Zhenming did not want to license the technology of the big data system to IBM.
In fact, Xu Zhenming did have this idea.
The technology of the big data system is very important to the IBM Group. If this technology is obtained by HP or DELL, IBM is very dangerous.IBM's monopoly will be broken, which is exactly what Xu Zhenming wants to see.
However, the CEO of Giant Blue will not be foolish.He is a professional manager invited by the New York Consortium, and the starting point for considering things must be responsible for the consortium behind the Blue Giant.
"Mr. Xu Zhenming, our company now does not require a global technology license, but only our big data system technology patent license in the United States. How much does it cost?" He squinted his eyes and smiled at Xu Zhenming, and he took a step back. compromise.
Of course, if Xu Zhenming is not a Chinese, Yiming Group is not a Chinese enterprise.The fat, bald, middle-aged man in front of him would definitely not use this attitude to talk to Xu Zhenming.
Not to mention that Xu Zhenming is the owner of a private enterprise, but what if he is the president of a small American country?The consortium behind the CEO has the ability to deal with these troubles.But now he has a headache and has to compromise Xu Zhenming and put forward a very duty-bound request.
"5 billion dollars. This is the lowest price and cannot be counter-offered." At this time, Xu Zhenming stretched out five fingers and shook it, telling the big boss of Giant Blue an amazing price.
His transaction price for the island country was US$3 billion, and his offer to Jobs was US$4 billion, and the tall, fat bald man in front of him would actually increase the price by US$1 billion.
This is obviously just not wanting to make a deal with IBM!
"What?" The bald man asked Xu Zhenming excitedly in his native language, without passing it through an interpreter.He told Xu Zhenming that he already knew that Xu Zhenming's offer to Apple Computer was only $4 billion.And now, why does Xu Zhenming increase the price?
Looking at the person's rich expression, Xu Zhenming smiled, "Because Apple Computer has the patented technology we need. I want to make a deal with them. OK?"
"Fak! This is a naked discrimination against our company!" Hearing Xu Zhenming's introduction, the bald man kept cursing his mother in his heart.He did not expect that Xu Zhenming would actually look down on the patented technology and technological projects of Giant Blue.How can this work?
Ever since, the bald man asked the chief technology officer of Giant Blue to start introducing Xu Zhenming about the Blue Giant Group.For example, they invented the hard disk, they invented the laptop, they invented the touch-screen laptop, they invented the personal computer, etc.
...Wait, wait, and so on.
Big Blue’s past is brilliant, and it deserves to be the world’s most powerful computer company, not one of them.In particular, their company also has technology patents on handwriting input methods and touch screens.
Among these patented technologies, Xu Zhenming is very interested in patents on hard disks, handwriting input methods, and touch screens.
If Yiming Group obtains these patents, it can develop its own unique and more advanced patented technology.At that time, the second-generation Core PDA or Kaiyuan second-generation mobile phone can start the digital era of color screen with handwriting input.
Although thinking so, Xu Zhenming's face was impatient, "No, our Yiming Group is not interested in these technologies. Unless your IBM company is willing to use cash to buy technology patent licenses for big data systems. ."
Seeing Xu Zhenming's attitude so resolute and not giving face, Powell was a little panicked.
He has dealt with Xu Zhenming and knows that Xu Zhenming has a hard temper, and he is also very stubborn.If Xu Zhenming didn't give face, today's negotiation would not go on.
"BOSS, I suggest that we take a 15-minute break and eat some fruit before negotiating." Powell got to the bald man's suggestion.
The bald chief executive took Powell's proposal very seriously.Only Powell of the Giant Blue Group has a better understanding of Xu Zhenming and China’s national conditions. At this moment, you can only listen to Powell’s suggestions.
As a result, this negotiation only lasted for more than half an hour with an intermission, and both parties participating in the meeting had to discuss countermeasures.
Xu Zhenming led the team members to leave the meeting room and handed the small meeting room to a group of bald men.He took Sister Han, Liu Jing, Yang Yurong and others to another small conference room.
"Xu Dong, if we temporarily increase the price, will IBM turn its face?"
"Minister Liu's worry is somewhat justified. IBM has never encountered such a thing. Will they become angry and retaliate against our group company?"
"We are sure of revenge. IBM has always been more arrogant in its way of doing things."
In the small meeting, Sister Han and others worriedly reminded Xu Zhenming that IBM should be given a step to make it easier for them to step down.
But Xu Zhenming didn't think so. "Do you know what big data system technology means to IBM?"
"After obtaining this technology, they can continue to monopolize the high-end computer market. However, they can also use other methods to obtain this technology."
Among the crowd, Liu Jing's comprehensive level is relatively high, and she quickly analyzed the various ways that Giant Blue Group can obtain big data system technology.
For example, they can force islanders to make concessions and privately provide them with big data technology.Or, they can ask Korea and a country in Europe to transfer technology.and many more……
Hearing these words, Xu Zhenming smiled, "I don't think it will. They will definitely get this technology as soon as possible. Because they want to fight with Seattle to help the ring, they will not lose it because of the 5 billion dollars. Another monopoly opportunity."
It was as expected by Xu Zhenming.
At this moment, in the small meeting room where I was negotiating.
"BOSS, we must compromise. Xu Zhenming has a weird temper and never considers actual interests. He may have reached a secret agreement with Jobs."
"I think Powell's proposal is very reasonable. Jobs's Apple company is very bad now, Xu Zhenming may want to become the owner of Apple Computer, and then go public in the United States."
"Oh... it's so high. Xu Zhenming's conspiracy turned out to be like this. Falcao's opinion is very correct. Xu Zhenming wanted to enter the U.S. and thus the North American market."
"Impossible, we must stop him!"
"Then what shall we do?"
"We can sell the ThinkPad to Xu Zhenming, and we can also sell the Hard Drive Division to Xu Zhenming. In this way, we hardly need to spend much cash."
"No, no, if we sell the ThinkPad and Hard Drive Division to Xu Zhenming, wouldn't he be able to easily enter the U.S. and even North America markets?"
"We can set the threshold. Besides, can our Congress allow a Chinese high-tech company to come to the United States?"
"Yes! This method is better. Hahaha..."
"Hahaha..."
In the meeting room, there was already a burst of laughter.The members of the Blue Giant's senior management team have agreed at this time and are ready to dig a hole for Xu Zhenming and let Xu Zhenming jump into the fire pit.
These people are worthy of being the elites sent by Wall Street to manage the Blue Giant, and they will brainstorm Xu Zhenming's inner plan.
But what about the facts?
After fifteen minutes, the meeting started again.
At this time, Powell put forward a new proposal on behalf of Giant Blue Group, "Mr. Xu Zhenming, after some discussion, our group company is willing to accept your request and agree to use 5 billion dollars to purchase the authorization of big data system technology. However, we Expect to use some shares to offset the account."
Powell talked freely and put forward the mature plan they just discussed.
This proposal completely exceeded Xu Zhenming's expectations.
First, Xu Zhenming never expected that Big Blue would transfer ThinkPad this year, nor did he expect them to transfer the hard drive division and laboratory.
These two departments have more than 10,000 patents, and according to Xu Zhenming's estimation, they are worth at least $1 billion.Not to mention the brand value of ThinkPad.
Second, the patents for handwriting input method, touch screen, LCD screen, etc. that Xu Zhenming wants to obtain are also within the terms of this transaction.
In this way, he doesn't need to put it forward to expose his true thoughts.
Although the situation is so generous, Xu Zhenming still frowned.
"You are only willing to pay $1 billion in cash. I am really not interested. Moreover, the ThinkPad division and the hard disk division are empty shelves. What is the use of our group company to get it?"
These issues raised by Xu Zhenming are in line with facts.With the rise of Wanwan OEMs, Big Blue’s ThinkPad division now only leaves the design department and sales department, and the production is entirely dependent on Wanwan’s ASUS OEM.
This is especially true for their hard drive division, which has fallen behind Fuji and Seagate in storage technology.Had it not been for the patented technology to be charged, the hard disk division had also been cancelled.
Compared with the Big Blue, the two major departments are a big burden.
Not only that, if the Yiming Group Company eats these two departments, it cannot easily dismiss employees of rice nationality, and cannot abolish these two departments or move back to China.
In other words, Yiming Group will carry a big burden from now on to help the U.S. raise people and provide jobs for the U.S. countrymen.
This kind of treatment is the same as the thinking computer company before Xu Zhenming's rebirth. Although he got the ThinkPad and Motorola brands, he was just working for the Americans.
But can Xu Zhenming be that stupid?
"We don't need ThinkPad, we don't need your hard disk business unit. We can accept shares in IBM." He smiled and shook his fingers, showing a very determined attitude.
"NO...NONO! This is impossible." Seeing that Xu Zhenming was indeed very much guessed by Powell, he must get shares in IBM. Of course the bald man would not agree.
As a result, he repeatedly made concessions and took out some idle laboratories and useless patented technologies under the name of the IBM Group to offset the account, but he did not want to give Xu Zhenming cash.
After this tug-of-war, Yiming Group has made a lot of money, and has obtained nearly 20,000 invention patents from Big Blue Group.
For example, Giant Blue's chip manufacturing process patent technology, chip design technology, graphics card chipset technology... etc.
Although these patents are outdated, they are the starting point for new technology patents.Once Yiming Group has obtained these patents, it can study newer patented technologies on its basis.
Therefore, Xu Zhenming fought very beautifully in this battle, making full use of the mentality of having no desire to be strong and digging into a gold mine from his opponent.
Around 10:30 in the evening, the tug-of-war of the negotiations ended victoriously.Xu Zhenming represents the Yiming Group Company, and the top man represents the Giant Blue Company. Both of them signed the draft agreement on patent cross-licensing with a smile.
The topless man is very happy. He only used 600 million US dollars in cash to obtain the technology of the big data system and win the future for the Giant Blue Group.
Xu Zhenming was also very happy. He obtained the hard disk technology and ThinkPad brand for Yiming Group only through the patent authorization of the technology of the big data system.In addition to these, there are three laboratories with 20,000 invention patents.
The results are extraordinary!
"Oh, it's selling well! 300 billion dollars? You are robbing, naked and robbing."
"Mr. Xu Zhenming, our IBM group company will not accept your extortion!"
"Hi...300 billion dollars? Mr. Xu Zhenming, you don't seem to be sincere?"
