Chapter 298 (1/2)
After successfully completing the task in Brazil, baozixuan separated from Wu Guangzheng and returned directly to the United States. The Brazilian auto factory project has been implemented, and a professional team will follow up. The company has also completed preliminary negotiations on engine supply with Embraer. Although it has not received a penny, it can only open the market at present.
Black cloud aviation power department needs the cooperation of Embraer to obtain real flight test data and obtain aviation airworthiness certificate. Only in this way can the black cloud engine fly over the world.
There is another reason why Bao Zixuan returned to the United States. After months of trying. Jul Engel has led the team to overcome the technical barrier of mobile phone short message. Now black cloud mobile phones can send short message services to each other. This is a remarkable achievement, especially in this era.
SMS: refers to text or digital messages that you can send and receive directly on your mobile phone. In this era, it is absolutely impossible to exist, but it is just idea innovation, and there is no great difficulty in technology. Especially for the elites from Bell Labs.
Baozixuan plans to upgrade the mobile phone once a year and position the mobile phone department as the most important department of the company. All resources will be provided first, and a professional lawyer team will serve for a period of time. At present, black cloud has more than 200000 employees and about 2000 employees in the mobile phone department. However, 1800 of these 2000 people belong to R & D personnel, and the rest are administrative personnel to cooperate with R & D.
It can be said that R & D strength alone is absolutely superior to the others, and other enterprises do not pay much attention to the role of basic patents. Because the royalties charged by baozixuan and Motorola are still relatively low, this is also the reason why other manufacturers feel that their own research and development is not cost-effective in terms of cost. However, at the thought of a frustrated aristocrat of Nokia in the future, the annual basic patent use fee can receive $5 billion, and Qualcomm has charged a huge high tax, which shows the importance of basic patents.
Returning to the black cloud R & D center in Cambridge, I saw that Jul Engel was debugging the equipment. Bao Zixuan said with a smile, ”you er, how's our new mobile phone going?”
Jul Engel has a habit that he doesn't like to be disturbed at work. Bao Zixuan was too excited to forget this rule, but now he knows it's too late. Jul Engel was angry and wanted to swear. When he saw that it was baozixuan, he controlled his emotions.
Seeing the old man's appearance, Bao Zixuan quickly explained, ”I'm sorry. I'm too excited. It's destroying your thinking.”
For these top scientists, if they want others to work well, just giving money is not enough. They must be given enough respect. The boss is tired enough, but now he can only follow their temper for future happiness.
Hearing that the boss apologized to himself made Jul Engel feel better. He is not a completely inhuman monster. Sometimes he still has to give the boss enough face. Otherwise, his descendants will be excluded if he continues to mix in the industry in the future.
Jul Engel: ”nothing, just a little distracted for a while. However, boss, our new mobile phone has been developed, and all technical indicators can meet the requirements. The most important thing is that the SMS service has been opened, and SMS can be sent at any time. ”
Bao Zixuan: ”what about the upgrading of old mobile phones!”
Jul Engel: ”our old mobile phones can be upgraded in the black cloud mobile phone store as long as a computer is connected to a data cable. But after all, it is the first generation product, which can only save 32 text messages. I don't want the new mobile phone to save 64 text messages. ”
At the beginning of the design, the black cloud generation mobile phone considered upgrading by external connection, which was not understood by the R & D personnel at that time. After all, this would add a lot of cost, which was useless at that time. Now it seems that the boss is far sighted and can consider all problems in advance.
Bao Zixuan: ”it doesn't matter. We just need to ensure my technical advantages. What about our research and development of other functions of mobile phones. For basic patents and technology patents, you can achieve the ultimate as long as you can meet my requirements and how much R & D funds you need. ”
Jul Engel smiled and said, ”boss, I haven't seen you like this. Other investors are thinking about how to save money, but you desperately give us R & D funds. If Bell Labs had such support for me, Martin would never be the first to develop mobile phones.”
