Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The reason why big people are different from small people is reflected in various aspects.  ¡ø¡à

    For example, don't look at the tit-for-tat confrontation between the three of them in the conference room just now. You won't let me, and I won't let you. But after arriving at the Fairy Company cafeteria, eating delicious food made by top chefs, drinking drinks, the three of them chatted and laughed, and the atmosphere  Very harmonious.

    Because Gang Leader Qiao has been recuperating, the master of traditional Chinese medicine in China specifically told him not to drink alcohol, not to drink too much coffee, and to pay attention to his diet, so he did not drink wine from Xiao Qi and Li Jianxi during the meal.

    Based on his temper ten years ago, most of the young and old would be drunk by him today.

    The same goes for Li Jianxi. After all, he is in his sixties and has begun to pay attention to health care. At most, he can only drink a glass of red wine.

    It¡¯s natural for people like Xiao Qi who hardly drink. Apart from drinking a glass of champagne, the rest was just food.

    Compared to the slightly dull interior, the five or six temporarily arranged dining tables outside, including people from Apple, Samsung, and Fairy Company who participated in the specific negotiations this time, were hanging around, eating meat and drinking beer, red wine, and liquor.  It's so lively.

    Just looking at this, not many people would think that starting from tomorrow, these people will fight fiercely for the interests of their companies, and they will definitely fight for every cent.

    But let¡¯s talk about tomorrow¡¯s matters tomorrow.

    For example, after Gang Leader Qiao, Li Jianxi and Xiao Qi finished eating, Gang Leader Qiao happily took Xiao Qi and Li Jianxi and went directly to Laoba Road for a stroll, and then went to the snack bar inside to taste delicious snacks.  Only then returned happily.

    During this period, no matter which one of the three people it was, they behaved exactly like ordinary people. They were not aggressive and decisive in the company, nor were they astonishing at the negotiation table.

    When the three of them passed by the Folklore Square.  I was also taken to dance for a while. This folk dance party, which is held every night, often brings tourists to dance together. The laughter makes people forget their hard work and fatigue.

    However, early the next morning, the three delegations outside were sitting separately in three corners of the same large conference room.

    They are waiting for the three bosses to come up with a rough charter.  For example, Apple and Samsung should be sold a percentage of app store ads, and then they should be responsible for what they pay and what they get.

    Such a complicated process certainly does not need to be discussed by the three giants, but it is also very important and cannot be careless at all.

    Therefore, when the people of the three delegations looked at each other, they no longer had the enthusiasm of calling each other as brothers last night. Instead, they looked at each other with class and enemy scrutiny.

    In the small conference room, yesterday's negotiations continued.  It also went directly to the topic.

    ¡°I went back last night to discuss it, and I think it is a very practical consideration for Apple to get a total of 5% of the shares and Samsung to get 3% of the shares.¡± Xiao Qi said calmly.

    "Too little!" Gang Leader Qiao said impatiently, "Why do we only get 2%, while Samsung gets 3%? Apple's sales are nearly twice that of Samsung!"

    "Sorry, according to the latest data, in December and January, the sales of Galaxy-tab are added. Our Samsung smart electronic products have exceeded 9 million units in a row, which is just one step away from Apple." Li Jianxi said  : "Besides, last time Apple asked to increase its shares. At that time, Samsung should also have the right to ask for some shares. So having said that, I think Samsung and Apple together, asking for 5% is not too much."

    "I don't agree!" Gang Leader Qiao said directly: "Apple will launch a new generation of iPhone next month. By then, our two generations of mobile phones will be sold together, and we will be able to reach at least 20 million units per month. You  Why is Samsung the same as us? I want 10%, and you want 3%. This is a very appropriate number.¡±

    "Why?" Li Jianxi was unhappy, "Samsung will also launch new mobile phones in the next few months, and our sales may also increase significantly! Apple and Samsung are both on the same starting line. You can't ask for more.  , we want less, this is not true!¡±

    The two started to quarrel as they talked.

    Apple and Samsung came together to put pressure on Xiao Qi, but they will never pee in the same pot.

    Therefore, Xiao Qi doesn't have to worry about them joining together. After all, both Gang Leader Qiao and Li Jianxi hope to suppress each other in the first step, and then oust Xiao Qi from the alliance leader throne. They will never accept that the two people have equal power.  The situation of being suppressed by Xiao Qi.

    Xiao Qi was happy to see them noisy. The two people had different opinions, which naturally gave Xiao Qi more room for maneuver.

    However, Gang Leader Qiao would not forget that he was the protagonist. He argued with Li Jianxi for a while and immediately changed the subject.?? pointed at Xiao Qi: "Xiao Qi, what's going on? You'd better say something!"

    "Didn't I make a proposal for discussion? You don't agree." Xiao Qi spread his hands and said with a smile, "How about we make another gambling agreement?"

    "Dream!"

    Gang leader Qiao flatly refused.

    He was deceived badly by Xiao Qi last time. From the 15% requirement, he only got a 3% share commitment, which caused his prestige in Apple to drop severely.

    Now Gang Leader Qiao has a shadow, fearing that he will be tricked by Xiao Qi again.

    Li Jianxi¡¯s expression changed, but he pondered for a long time before tentatively saying: ¡°I wonder what your gambling method is, Mr. Qi?¡±

    "You also know that Dreamsnow is currently expected to ship 25 million units a month." Xiao Qi said eloquently, "Starting from the time it starts selling, if I sell more than 400 million units within a year, then  Apple will only get 3%, and Samsung will get 1% of the shares. If I sell more than 500 million units within a year, your commitment to get the shares will be cancelled. If I fail to do so, then Apple will get 10%.  , Samsung gets 7% of the app store shares, how about it?¡±

    The two immediately lowered their heads and began to calculate.

    The original calculation was 300 million units per year. It seems that there is no difficulty in reaching this number. It may not be difficult to say 400 million units, but it is obviously an exaggeration to say 500 million units.

    Apple and Samsung both make mobile phones. Of course they know that mobile phone production cannot be increased just because they want to.

    It is subject to two aspects: the first is the production capacity of the factory, and the other is the supply capacity of parts.

    For example, iPhone is limited by the production capacity of the factory. The current factory in Daoyin with an annual production capacity of 96 million units has been almost a year since the concept was proposed, but it will still not be officially put into production until around May.

    Therefore, in the first few months after the launch of the second-generation iPhone, it will definitely fall into the embarrassing situation of insufficient production capacity - the Hongqiongdao Bay factory has expanded its production to the limit of 10 million units per month, and it is impossible to produce all the second-generation iPhones.  iPhone?  The first generation iPhone will be sold for half a year or even a year at the same time!

    Speaking of which, Xiao Qi unintentionally tricked Gang Leader Qiao. If Xiao Qi hadn't booked the foundry in Daoyin early in the morning, and if it hadn't been delayed by snowstorms and major earthquakes that lasted for more than three months.  , now Apple may have already started producing iPhones at the Red Sea Doyin factory.

    The supply capacity of parts and components is a major factor restricting production.

    You have the workers and the factory is ready, but you don¡¯t have the parts. How can you produce?

    Parts manufacturers¡¯ one-year production plans are set well in advance. They also need to book demand with downstream raw material suppliers in advance so that they can be supplied to factories.

    Even if there are some preparations for fluctuations, it will not be as exaggerated as 300 million units expanding to 500 million units, right?

    "If Fairy Company doesn't want it, if some parts need to be upgraded next year, wouldn't the extra 200 million sets of spare parts be lost?"

    For a moment, both Gang Leader Qiao and Li Jianxi were a little moved.

    But they immediately realized that Xiao Qi was very good at gambling.

    Whether it¡¯s oil bets or other bets, Xiao Qi has never lost!

    As long as he speaks out, he will definitely be confident. If he is greedy, he will be easily framed by Xiao Qi.

    ¡°And the time span of the bet is as long as one year. The variability of the future is really uncertain. It is much more cost-effective and safer to get the shares now.

    "Don't talk about betting, let's settle the matter at hand first." Gang Leader Qiao said decisively: "I want 7%. This is my minimum requirement. If you don't agree, we have nothing to talk about.  Yes! Apple will definitely have its own ideas!¡±

    Xiao Qi sneered at his threat, "Stephen, I don't need to tell you how promising the app store is. Apple wants to start a new business. With your sales volume, can you support an app store? Users who are used to the app store, there are  How many people are willing to leave with you?"

    Gang Leader Qiao snorted coldly and refused to answer Xiao Qi's words.

    Li Jianxi also sighed in his heart.

    In fact, this is also the biggest weakness of Apple and Samsung.

    ¡°If they had not cooperated with Xiao Qi at the beginning, but had built the app mall themselves, then even if they were weaker, the two of them would not have come to Chengdu to negotiate and suffer.

    But it is useless to say this now. The app store is a behemoth jointly cultivated by Apple, Samsung and Fairy Company. Let Apple andI would be extremely reluctant to start a new business in the future.

    Not to mention the huge amount of money invested, just the hardship of starting over from scratch, and facing the unrivaled app store, will give you an irresistible sense of frustration!

    Therefore, the two of them, who are neither fools, only thought about how to obtain more benefits, and never really thought about leaving!  !  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature. The novels will be better and updated faster!
