    Xiao Qi did a little calculation and found that in ten years, the patent authorization would be more than 95 million. Now one or two years seems to be a bit more expensive, but considering the rapid development of China in the past ten years, this amount of money is simply a drop in the bucket.

    "In addition, the continued appreciation of the RMB against the US dollar in the future will also depreciate this money, but Xiao Qi's development in China will benefit greatly from this.

    But he was not happy on the surface: "These guys are really desperate for money. They have already taken this. Isn't six million a year enough? I have to pay more than thirty million more."

    Wade explained: "You can't say that, Mr. Xiao. In fact, the patent for the optical fiber transmission equipment invented by Nortel Networks is still very valuable. Nortel Networks now relies on this for a large amount of their income. They  I would rather sell it in every country, but this increase year by year is also the norm in the market. After all, the Internet is developing at a rapid pace. Good technology is not afraid that no one will buy it, and the price given to you is already very cheap.  "

    Xiao Qi nodded secretly.

    Nortel Networks made its fortune by relying on its own invention of optical fiber transmission equipment. Because it could greatly increase the data transmission speed, which was in line with Clinton's "Information Superhighway" construction plan, Nortel Networks made a lot of money and started  They expanded without restraint.

    If you do not control it, it means that you do n¡¯t digest it. You do n¡¯t need to say when the market is, but once the market is not good, it is easy to have problems.

    For example, the crisis of Nortel Networks in recent years has been caused by the optical fiber transmission equipment. Because around 2001, the Internet bubble burst, and many companies that purchased Nortel Networks optical fiber transmission equipment went bankrupt, causing unintentional breaches of contract.

    This also caused a large amount of equipment from Nortel Networks to be squeezed and unable to be sold, causing them to have insufficient circulating funds and thus being unable to support losses in other industries.  Under the domino effect, very large companies that originally cost more than 200 billion collapsed and were dying.

    Under this circumstance, as the economy improves, Nortel Networks certainly hopes to sell the valuable things on hand for more value.

    Technology companies in Western countries have always looked down upon the Chinese market because they know it.  No matter how good your products are, it won't be long before imitations and cheaper products come out, and then take advantage of the price advantage to force yourself to collapse - don't believe it? Microsoft is the best example!

    Therefore, when Nortel Networks heard that the Chinese wanted to buy patents, they quickly lowered the price.  Moreover, they were afraid that the Chinese businessmen would not be able to hold on and would no longer buy it in a few years, so they signed a ten-year contract in one go, which was almost the expiration date of their patent protection period.

    ¡°Otherwise, if calculated according to normal circumstances, a superpower that is larger than the United States and has a larger population than the United States would cost at least hundreds of millions a year to package the entire optical fiber transmission equipment.  There will also be a royalty fee for each piece of equipment produced.

    People have even given up their rights and interests, which means they are not optimistic about the development of optical fiber in China.

    They are not optimistic about it, but Xiao Qi is very optimistic about it, even confirmed that he is optimistic about it.

    As soon as the iPhone comes out, the smartphone era will begin. From then on, China's demand for network speed will rise sharply, and the fiber optic technology that determines the network speed will rise sharply.  That's the most important part.

    If Xiao Qi is not wrong, China's three major network operators, China Mobile, Liandu and Dentsu, will definitely not dare to use pirated software. Therefore, the future improvement of China's network speed should also be due to their purchase of technology patents.  the result of.

    If the patent license for optical fiber transmission equipment is now in his own hands, then Xiao Qi and several major operators in China will have a natural advantage in cooperation.  It can even lay a good foundation for your future mobile phone to become a contract phone of the three major companies.

    Although it is an Apple mobile phone number, it will be Gang Leader Qiao in the future.  But it is only because of contract machines from various countries that it has developed so fast!

    "The contract has been signed for ten years, which is a great thing that Xiao Qi never thought of before.

    Not to mention anything else, Nortel Networks will only have to persist until the middle of next year, after the iPhone is officially released, then they will usher in a spring again, and prices will definitely skyrocket every year!

    Now they have given the ten-year patent authorization to Xiao Qi in one breath, and the young man can only smile and put it in his arms.

    "I don't have any objections to optical fiber transmission equipment." After thinking for a moment, Xiao Qi said calmly, "But for the acquisition of wcdma's department, I hope to pay an initial payment of 100 million US dollars, and the second payment of 200 million will wait until next year.  It will be paid monthly, and the last 100 million will be paid in March next year. What does Mr. Wade think?"

    "Well" Wade thought for a moment, "I'm afraid it's a bit difficult to handle. They just want to get the money as soon as possible and get rid of this burden."

    "In terms of money, it shouldn't be a problem. After all, for a large-scale acquisition, how can the money be paid off at once?" Xiao Qi had already made a plan. "As for the wcdma department, it is even simpler. The employment contractIf you have any contact, just transfer them directly to my company. From the first moment the contract is signed, their salary and benefits will be borne by me, and I guarantee that they will not be reduced.  "

    Xiao Qi is right. In any mature acquisition case, the money will never be transferred to the acquired company immediately after signing the contract. That is definitely an idiotic act by the owner.

    Even in the United States, it is normal for an acquisition to be fully funded within one year.

    Wade was stunned and said: "There are more than 80 people in their entire department, and their monthly salary, experimental and administrative expenses have reached 3 million. If you take it in advance, you will spend at least 10 million more."  !¡±

    "More than ten million is nothing. The most important thing is to make them available to me as soon as possible." Xiao Qi replied calmly.

    The most important thing in the 21st century is talent.

    Although this sentence was said in China, it is equally applicable in the United States and even applies anywhere.

    When buying a company, the most important thing is not the patent right, because patent rights generally last for twenty to twenty-five years. In order to build your own patent fortress, you need to constantly invent new patented technologies.

    And these employees who originally created the invention patent are naturally the most important human resources for further development. It is definitely not easier to start from scratch than to continue research. Xiao Qi certainly needs to calm their minds.

    " Compared to the profits they will create for Xiao Qi through patents in the future, a mere tens of millions of dollars, what is it?
