Seeing that the heat was almost done, Williams no longer had the powerful aura of the lion's mouth just now, Du Chengyi felt relieved in his heart.

"I wonder how much Mr. Williams knows about the arm architecture?" Du Chengyi once again talked about another thing that seemed irrelevant. This erratic question and answer made Williams unable to touch Du Chengyi's thinking pulse again.

What exactly does this person want to do? Williams muttered in his heart. But he couldn't help but express his pride proudly. "Frankly speaking, Jeff, if you give me enough resources, no, just give me similar R&D resources to the arm company, I can develop risc chips that are more powerful than arm."

"You should know that ultrasparc launches a one-core multi-core 64-bit processor, which is much earlier than Intel and Amd. In terms of multi-core productization, sun is at the forefront of the world. Unfortunately, whether it is ultrasparct1 or ultrasparct2, these excellent CPUs cannot occupy the market in time and become mainstream, otherwise sun will not fall to the point of being acquired."

In fact, Stanford's hydra processor was first proposed and implemented on-chip multi-core processors. After the invention of hydra, the inventor naturally established a company. Naturally, although such a leading company was small and exquisite, it could not stand the technology leading, so this company was quickly purchased by Sun Company, which was at the time, and Hydra became the prototype of the Sun multi-core processor.

So sun did lead the industry in terms of multi-core processors. In the late 1990s and early 2000s, sun was once glorious and bold. Even Microsoft, which was a powerful and powerful, was reluctant to take the lead back then. In the same sun, ja*va stock at www.jtxsk.com, reached a historical high of US$258.75 in 2000. The market value exceeded US$200 billion.

You should know that a company with a market value of more than US$200 billion in around 2000 was definitely a behemoth. Apple, which is extremely awesome now, could not fall into the eyes of Sun at that time.

Unfortunately, the Yangtze River waves pushed the waves back and died on the beach. Waiting for the prosperity to dissipate, Sun became the prey of oracle. The final purchase price was only US$9.50 per share, with a total value of US$7.4 billion, which was less than a fraction of that year.

Perhaps it was so successful back then that now Williams still seemed to have an infinite nostalgia for the glory of the past when talking about Sun's CPU.

"Okay. Mr. Williams," Du Chengyi interrupted Williams' sweet memories of the past. "Maybe we can change to a new way of trading, a way that allows you to gain huge wealth and realize your dreams."

"We know that Apple's current offer for your patent is $100 million," Du Chengyi continued. This is not a very important secret. If the consulting company cannot provide this information, it will lose its value.

"According to industry experts' estimates, perhaps until the end, Apple will pay up to $200 million for this." Du Chengyi said. "Does Mr. Williams need to add this?"

Williams shook his head. The other party could have such clear information. If anything unreliable said, it would be just a joke. Besides, Williams was originally a technical talent, not a business talent.

After being distracted by Du Chengyi several times, Williams was completely unable to figure out what the other party was thinking.

Although Williams vaguely felt that things were not that simple, and he intuitively thought that there might be some hidden information in the middle, but whether the secret behind it could be used by him. Williams was not sure at all. Today, Du Chengyi had given him an excellent opportunity.

Williams is already in his forties and almost fifty years. He has spent more than a year of precious time with Apple. To this day, both sides are still arguing, and they don’t know when they can reach an agreement.

I don’t know if there will be any recurrence in the future, so for Williams, being able to lock in income directly is better than anything else. It seems that Du Chengyi can achieve his goal directly.

You should know that Du Chengyi has all the bills of exchange, and they can definitely be paid quickly after reaching an agreement. Compared with Apple's unpredictable patent dispute claims, this is a certain income. If it were a different time, Williams would have agreed to a price.

But now Du Chengyi’s obscure intentions make Williams feel that he can ask for more. So he has not reached the point now. Although Williams lacks some business skills, he is definitely not a fool. He is waiting for Du Chengyi to offer the price first to determine his asking price.

This order is very important. If Du Chengyi directly offers a price of $200 million, Williams can try to bargain. Even if Du Chengyi no longer increases upward, with $200 million as the bottom, Williams feels that the trip is worth the day.

"Then if we pay $200 million for the price of this patent, I believe Williams should not have much opinion, right?" Du Chengyi indeed offered the price according to this.

However, without waiting for Williams to express his objection, Du Chengyi then offered another price tag that was almost difficult for Williams to refuse.

"In addition, if Mr. Williams is still interested in the development of CPU, we can add another $100 million to buy NDK. Of course, Mr. Williams will also work for NDK's new CPU for at least 5 years."

When Williams heard this completely unexpected proposal, he was a little confused. Could this mysterious oriental man’s ultimate goal be to enter the tightly barrier-resistant CPU industry?

"Jeff," Williams picked up the teacup and moistened his throat, which was a little interfered with by the news. "This CPU development cannot be done by a small company like me."

"I know, Mr. Williams, you don't have to worry about resources. At least I can assure you that if an agreement is reached, you will receive more than 200 million US dollars in R&D expenses every year. Of course, for the development of a CPU, this cost may be a bit small. But at least you can find a way to continue, right?" Du Chengyi was like a witch who was tempting Williams at the moment.

This was not Du Chengyi's whim for a while, but Du Chengyi derived it from the overall situation of sal. After all, he saw a worldly turtle and became a foreign company executive. Although his power is very small, it does not limit his vision of looking at problems. Compared with ordinary people, Du Chengyi can see deeper and farther from the current patent battle.

As long as the new Nokia Mobile wins this life-and-dea patent war, the rise will be almost certain. In terms of the core components of the mobile phone, Du Chengyi already knows that the company has made breakthrough progress in new displays, and the relevant production bases are also under intensive construction.

According to Du Chengyi's estimate, the company's own display screen will be used at the earliest next generation of products. In the future, the new Nokia Mobile will achieve greater achievements. Things like CPUs must be customized to better reflect the company's advantages. Even if you cannot fully design a new CPU, it is also very good to be able to develop and optimize your own CPU based on arm like Apple.

Although Du Chengyi didn't have time to report this idea, Du Chengyi did this at this moment, using Cai Siqiang's authorization to the extreme.

Of course, throwing out this condition that Williams could hardly refuse was also to raise the price in disguise to acquire the key patent. And now it seems that this condition is even more tempting to the middle-aged man in front of him than to directly add another $100 million to Williams to buy his patent.

"Jeff, what you said is true. What is your background? Being able to support a small company with 200 million US dollars in research and development funds per year is definitely not something that ordinary companies can afford." Williams said excitedly. Being able to succeed in both wealth and career is simply an irresistible temptation for Williams.

"Of course, Mr. Williams, I'm not kidding. You saw that bill just now. We are definitely able to support the development of a new CPU." Du Chengyi smiled slightly, but he still avoided talking about his own background. This matter is of great importance, and even close relatives must keep it confidential, not to mention that the two sides are still negotiating their relationship.

"Well, you really made me excited." Williams pondered for a while and decided resolutely. "If the conditions are as you said, I agree to sign such a package."

Hearing this, Du Chengyi showed a real smile and stretched out his hands, "Welcome to join, Mr. Williams, this is undoubtedly a very wise decision, and soon you will understand how wise your choice is."

Yes, many years later, when Williams recalled this experience, he couldn't help but sigh. He felt very proud and actually very lucky. This was a very important turning point in his life history, turning himself from an unknown person to an indispensable storm in CPU history.

The real case of being able to shine in his 40s only brings new glory to his career. This real case became the best example of later inspiring middle-aged people to become late.
