In January this year, Xiao Qi reached an agreement with Samsung Electronics.
Samsung's upcoming smartphones and shadowless tablets are based on 20 million smartphones and 10 million tablets. Each unit has a cost of 20 US dollars, which is the patent fee paid to Fairy Company.
Although according to the agreement, the more they produce, the patent fees will continue to decrease, but even if they produce 200 million smartphones in the future, the ultimate number of 20 million units, they still need to give a patent of at least US$5 per unit.
fee.
If so many new patents are granted, Xiao Qi will not charge them a patent fee of at least US$10 per unit in the future, which will not be enough for Samsung's own enthusiasm.
Samsung's total sales volume of smartphones and tablets in the next year will exceed 300 million units. A patent fee of US$10 means that Xiao Qi will receive a net profit of US$3 billion from Samsung every year.
This is the power of technology!
This is the wealth transformed by patents!
When Xiao Qi thought of so much profit, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised. No wonder so many people came one after another to invent and create. No wonder the world developed so fast.
If we all follow China’s borrowing and copycatism from ancient times to the present, I’m afraid we’re still in the feudal era.
It is worth mentioning that although Xiao Qi obtained many patents with the help of his memory, other than that, he still attached great importance to invention patents.
The research and development expenses spent on Fairy Labs, Mingxiang Holdings North America Labs, and App Stores have already exceeded 5 billion US dollars, and this amount is still increasing.
In addition, Fairy Company is also desperately trying to purchase and obtain various related patent licenses around the world. This cost has increased rapidly as Xiao Qi's DreamStars research and development progresses.
Therefore, regardless of the high patent licensing fees Xiao Qi received from Apple and Samsung, the patent licensing fees he paid were also quite large. Even as more and more DreamPads and DreamStars were sold, he would also pay more and more.
many.
Talk less.
When Xiao Qi said that he had a big appetite, Li Jianxi smiled slightly and said, "Qi Shao, Samsung is not short of money, it is short of technology... I believe Samsung will give a suitable price, and we and Fairy Company will definitely work with the app
Cooperation with stores is the same, achieving a win-win situation.”
When he mentioned this, Xiao Qi couldn't help but smile, "President Li, Gang Leader Qiao's iPhone has already made a lot of money for you, right? But I don't see where the profits created by Samsung are... Gang Leader Qiao
I called recently and not only demanded my profit, but also told me by name that Samsung did not deserve a 5% profit share."
After IPHONE landed in the App Store, the crazy sales momentum of various game software programs was no less than that of DreamPad.
According to statistics from the South Florida Times, 70% of iPhone fans are playing APP games during their free time on trams and trains. The data is incredible!
You know, it’s not just young people who buy IPHONE, there are also many middle-aged people over 40 years old, and elderly people also buy it. If you remove these people, it will be the remaining 98% of young people who like it.
Play some fun games in your free time.
IPHONE has now sold 15 million units, and the profits from the applications created by these fans have already made people jealous and want to rob them.
Gang leader Qiao also called Xiao Qi several times in a row, asking to reevaluate the profit sharing method. It must not be divided according to 5% of the pure profit, otherwise Apple will suffer too much loss.
Of course Xiao Qi did not agree.
Gang Leader Qiao has a very tough character. If Xiao Qi gives in once, he will press hard again and again until he finally takes control of the App Store.
It is said that Ma Yun has a strong desire for control, but if compared with Gang Leader Qiao, there is a world of difference.
The reason why Xiao Qi disagrees is very simple. Your IPHONE apps are selling like hotcakes, but my DreamPad is even more popular than yours. I have a base of close to 50 million units, and the number of apps purchased for each DreamPad is still there.
Suppress your IPHONE firmly. I didn’t even say that Apple took advantage of the DreamPad. How much money do you have, and you are starting to become arrogant?
Besides, there’s another point. Haven’t Samsung’s smartphones not been on the market yet? Can you say that after they go on the market, they will be very poor and cannot sell applications?
The reason why Xiao Qi refused so forcefully was because he saw that Gang Leader Qiao had no way to exit the app store. This strong threat was just to gain more benefits for himself.
Because 90% of the various APPSTORE applications that Xiao Qi had an impression of in his previous life have already appeared or appeared in the App Store in advance.
If Gang Leader Qiao starts a new business, where will he find so many software and games? Will IPHONE users agree? They see that others can play so many games and use so many software programs proficiently, but they will still stay in the IPHONE camp.
In?
Therefore, if Apple creates its own APPSTORE, they will not only lose huge profits in the App Store, but also lose their own customer base, which is definitely not worth the gain.
So, it feels really good to be one step ahead.
Li Jianxi was not surprised by Jobs's statement, because Samsung Electronics' share of the app store was indeed very high during this period. Take the first 29 days of July as an example, Samsung's gross profit was almost 200 million
U.S. dollars, without any effort, to get so much profit, no wonder Gang Leader Qiao is unhappy.
"Haha, our Samsung will definitely not be worse than them. Qi Shao, please wait and see!" Li Jianxi is also an old fox, and of course he will not show weakness. "Besides, Samsung will not be as unsatisfied as Apple. We are very satisfied with our friends."
There is only one word for attitude: sincerity. Li Jianxi will never say anything about how you will be of use to me in the future."
Of course, Samsung will not be worse than Apple. In the future, the number of Samsung smartphones will be three times that of Apple!
With such a large base, at least in terms of application sales, Samsung will not lose to Apple - this is one of the reasons why Xiao Qi has the confidence to reject Gang Leader Qiao's attack. (To be continued. Please search
