Chapter 199 (2/2)
But when I saw Armstrong's photo of landing on the moon, baozixuan was a little confused. At that time, Armstrong's ”a small step for me and a big step for human aerospace” was transmitted back to the ground through Motorola equipment. It can be said that it was a highlight moment in Motorola's history and an insurmountable classic.
Robert Calvin smiled and said, ”welcome Mr. Bao and all black cloud employees to Motorola. You're welcome here. You can visit at will. All places in our company are open to black cloud employees today.”
Bao Zixuan: ”thank you for Mr. Calvin's warm hospitality. Motorola is a great company. Black cloud still has a lot to learn from you, which is a vivid learning course for us. ”
Robert Calvin: ”Mr. Bao is flattered. We still have a lot to do. It took only two years for black cloud to develop into its current scale, which many people dare not think of. Unexpectedly, Mr. Bao did it. This is a great achievement and a place for Motorola to learn. ”
Bao Zixuan: ”it's very kind of you. You must know our intention today. Heiyun wants to get technology and patent authorization for mobile phones. I know that many products of black cloud Motorola intend to enter, so cooperation is the best way to solve the problem. ”
Robert Calvin: ”the future prospect of the mobile phone market must be very broad. Motorola can't dominate the market alone, it can't eat it, and it may also be filed for antitrust investigation. It's not impossible for black cloud to enter. The key is to exchange something. ”
After seeing baozixuan's wink, Larry Brown knew he was going to start, and said, ”Mr. Calvin, according to Motorola's financial statements, your company has invested about $45-50 million in R & D funds in the whole mobile phone project, and heiyun group can use this money to obtain technology and patent authorization.”
Motorola is a listed enterprise, and its annual financial report should be released to the public. These materials are almost defenseless in front of gold medal lawyers, which is also the disadvantage of listed companies. What is too transparent and some secret projects are difficult to do.
After Larry Brown spoke, Robert Calvin was not saying anything. Martin Cooper next to him would answer the question. Identity problems exist in all walks of life. The boss and employees lose their identity in the dialogue at this time.
Martin Cooper: ”you only see the economic cost we pay, not the time cost of joining the engineer team day and night. Therefore, Motorola will not recognize the valuation of black cloud for mobile phone R & D, and many hidden costs have not been added. ”
Larry Brown: ”so, Mr. Cooper, as the inventor of the mobile phone, what is your valuation of it?”
Martin Cooper and Robert Calvin have long valued mobile phones and the existing patents of black cloud. They have long listed the products they want and made comments. Motorola is not a very short of money. They also want to get black cloud's patent authorization.
Martin Cooper: ”we don't need cash. Motorola doesn't really need money. We hope that black cloud can exchange patents for laptops, digital cameras and flash cards. ”
Hearing this, baozixuan feels that Motorola is really greedy. After the exchange, the media may how to write about heiyun group and how to arrange baozixuan!
Larry Brown: ”this condition is unacceptable. But you can choose one of them for exchange. After all, some products are not Motorola's strengths. Motorola seems to have no technical reserves in optical lenses. We have proposed another deal that may interest Motorola! ”
After that, he handed the prepared information to the Motorola negotiator. After seeing the information, Martin Cooper didn't feel anything. He just felt that heiyun wanted to buy some products from Motorola, but Robert Calvin's happy expression immediately showed.
The number of products purchased by heiyun group every year is too amazing. If the contract is signed according to this purchase quantity, the company's share price will fly to the sky. In fact, this is also the result that baozixuan wants. The rise of Motorola's share price is also of great benefit to him. Blackstone fund holds a lot of Motorola shares.
