Wang Hong's face changed, and then she laughed quickly, "Qi Shao, htc is htc, and Microsoft is Microsoft. If we can pay for it, I think it is better for us to do it ourselves."
Microsoft has been asking for an increase in HTC's shares during this period, but Wang Hong insisted on refusing, because if more shares were given, HTC would gradually be cannibalized by Microsoft and become an American company.
If, according to what Xiao Qi said, Microsoft provides the exchanged technology patents, then they definitely have the right to request that these technology patents be converted into equity capital, and then the shares will be increased again.
"If that's the case, let's put it aside for now." Xiao Qi nodded and said, "Fairy Company has Fairy Company rules, and I can't change them too much."
Wang Hong and Cheng Wen glanced at each other, and both could see the disappointment in the other's heart.
They knew the rules of Fairy Company and knew that the two companies were actually competitors, but they also hoped that Xiao Qi could give htc some help for the sake of our family.
However, Xiao Qi's refusal was so firm that they could not find any good way to persuade him for a while.
But Wang Hong was not an ordinary person after all. Although the purchase request was rejected, she turned around and talked about other things with a smile, as if the embarrassment just now did not exist.
Yin Ziling, who was eavesdropping while eating food, felt a burst of emotion.
▼First of all, I lamented that Wang Hong is indeed a hero among women, capable of bending and stretching. Although it is difficult to negotiate business, she has not lost her sense of proportion.
Then he lamented that Xiao Qi is really majestic, and the domineering power of the world's richest man is fully displayed. He actually refused to do such a big business of 3 billion US dollars, and did not take this huge sum of money seriously at all.
Unfortunately, after working hard for more than ten years, my current wealth is only more than 30 million US dollars. It is almost only one percent of this huge sum of money.
Compared to Yin Ziling, Ling Shuangshuang didn't care what Xiao Qi and the others were talking about.
She has never had much talent for business, nor does she care much. If Xiao Qi hadn't found a professional manager for her, and Wang Shuang would help look after her, as well as Guo Taiming and Wang Hong. I'm afraid Ling's
It is simply impossible for the fund to prosper as it does today.
Wang Hong didn't talk about the patent purchase anymore, but Cheng Wen next to him couldn't sit still. He wanted to talk about this matter several times, but his wife stopped him with a look.
Wang Hong knew very well that since Xiao Qi refused so simply, it proved that he had thought about this kind of thing. If htc didn't have better bargaining chips, it would be difficult to buy the technology he wanted with money.
I think so.
Although Fairy Company has sold many patents, most of them are mid- to low-end technologies. When it comes to high-end technologies, other companies need to exchange their own high-end technologies.
It is also through such exchanges that Fairy Company has increasingly taken a leading position in the intelligent electronics industry.
Of course, Fairy Company's tens of thousands of technical personnel are also one of the foundations for their strength today.
Now HTC is seeking help from Fairy Company. Of course Xiao Qi will not make HTC cheaper. Peer-to-peer technology exchange is a normal requirement.
Besides, Fairy Company treats any company like this, not just HTC. So Wang Hong was not very angry.
What she is now thinking about is how to obtain the Fairy Company's patent through other means.
Because if HTC wants to go further, it must make technological breakthroughs, including batteries, touch screens, displays, camera corrections, etc. There is a lot of room for improvement.
I didn’t realize before that when HTC and Microsoft engineers worked day and night for hundreds of years but could not succeed in technological research, they realized how unsatisfactory the success of Fairy Company, Apple and even Samsung was.
easy.
If there was no other way, Wang Hong would definitely not want to beg Xiao Qi in such a low voice. US$3 billion is not much in Xiao Qi's eyes, but it is a lot in HTC Company.
Since htc company is currently unable to provide the technology Xiao Qi needs, she is willing to make some other exchanges. Anyway, Fairy Company is so big, there are always projects that can be cooperated with htc.
On the other hand, Xiao Qi is also very satisfied with Wang Hong's demeanor. This woman was born in the Wang family, the family of the treasure island management god, but she did not become a playboy, but relied on her own abilities to get to where she is today step by step.
the point.
Although htc eventually fell due to various reasons in the previous life, there are many factors involved, which cannot deny Wang Hong's efforts and brilliant achievements.
No matter for which aspect, she can be called an outstanding rich second generation, much stronger than Li Dachao.
Even if HTC was a bit short-sighted in the previous generation and was not so friendly with mainland companies, as Wang Hong said, everyone is Chinese. In the smart electronics industry, Chinese companies have more companies and have more say.
Some, always a good thing.
What's more, in this life, because of Xiao Qi, htc has paid enough attention to the mainland market, and its ties with mainland companies have become much closer. They have also become one of the companies close to the mainland in Baodao.
This is a very good team.
After thinking about it, Xiao Qi decided to give her some benefits on the other hand, so as to increase htc's own strength without worrying about bringing too many threats to Fairy Company.
Anyway, it would be a good thing if HTC competes with LG, Sony, Nokia and Motorola for the market.
"Director Wang, I heard that you are recently negotiating with Letronis in the United States to acquire shares, is that right?" Xiao Qi asked Wang Hong.
Wang Hong hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "Yes."
Her answer was a little dry because Wang Hong didn't know the reason why Xiao Qi asked this matter.
beatseletronis is an American company called Moyin Electronics. They have two most outstanding features. The first is Moyin headphones, which are known as one of the best headphones in the world. The second is their online music streaming service.
It is an online paid download and on-demand music service.
Now Beatronis' first headphone business is developing in full swing. The performance is very good, and the second online music streaming service is also booming.
htc took a fancy to beat-colored letronis because of its second project.
They saw that Apple's iOS music website was making huge profits and could increase users' stickiness to Apple phones, iOS, and iPads, so they were naturally attracted to it.
They can't do anything about the app store. After all, this is Microsoft's home field, but they can learn something about online music streaming.
So htc wants to buy beat color letronis, so that many users of beat color letronis can become htc users.
This matter was done in a relatively secretive manner and was not announced to the outside world. Even now it is still in the contact stage and does not involve an actual quotation. Wang Hong didn't know how Xiao Qi knew about it.
If she hadn't known that Xiao Qi had the appstore as a killer, Wang Hong would have thought that Xiao Qi wanted to be the first to seize the company Letronis.
"How's your negotiation going? Has the price been decided?" Xiao Qi asked.
Wang Hong was a little embarrassed by Xiao Qi's reticent remarks, but after thinking about it, she decided to answer truthfully, "There has been a lot of progress, but there are some differences in the price. They want a valuation of US$400 million, and we HTC give it
Their valuation is only $250 million."
"Apart from the price issue, do they also insist on having harsh buyback terms?"
"..."
Not only was Wang Hong shocked, Cheng Wen, who had not spoken during this period, could not help but look at Xiao Qi with jaws dropped.
Is there a traitor in htc?
Otherwise, how could Xiao Qi know so clearly?
It shouldn’t be. The people negotiating with my husband and wife are all old people who have been in the company since the beginning. They also have shares in htc, so it is impossible for them to join Xiao Qi!
Of course Xiao Qi would not say that he only found out about it after seeing the news from later generations.
He smiled faintly, "As your friend, I suggest you get the beat color letronis as soon as possible, regardless of the price. But the buy-back clause must be cancelled. For this reason, it doesn't matter if you pay more!"
"Qi Shao, why?" Cheng Wen couldn't help but ask.
"Because Letronis has a very good future development potential." Xiao Qi said with a smile, "In five years, I am optimistic that it will have a valuation of more than 3 billion US dollars."
3 billion US dollars!?
The couple gasped.
No matter how optimistic they were about beat-colored letronis, they never thought they would have so much money!
However, Xiao Qi's investment vision is recognized as first-class in the world, and it is basically impossible to make a mistake.
"Qi Shao, why do you have to remind us like this?" Wang Hong asked solemnly, "Don't you want such a good company?"
"The first one is that I have purchased the Swedish Shengpotian company. It is similar to the beat color Letronis and has better development potential." Xiao Qidao said, "The second one is that I am very grateful to the two of you for your support to Shuangshuang.
I need to take good care of her. From now on, when she lives in Baodao, she will also need the help of good friends. I know you two will not let me down."
Wang Hong and Cheng Wen suddenly realized what they were saying.
Although the first reason is the main reason, having the relationship with Ling Shuangshuang is undeniably the important reason why Xiao Qi gave them a try.
For Xiao Qi, this is just a piece of cake, but for HTC, it is very valuable news!
No one in the company can see that beat color letronis has such great development potential, and they don’t pay enough attention to it!
Now that Xiao Qi said it will be worth 3 billion U.S. dollars, he needs to negotiate harder and hold it firmly in his hands. HTC will have another magic weapon to win!
htc’s foundation is not very deep. If it can develop in many aspects, it will be an excellent supplement and development for the business development of the entire group!
Thinking of this, the two looked at each other and smiled.
"Qishao, Shuangshuang, come on, let us toast you a drink." Wang Hong and Cheng Wen stood up and said respectfully.
Xiao Qi and Ling Shuangshuang also stood up, clinked glasses with them and sat down.
"Please rest assured, Mr. Qi, Shuangshuang is just like my sister. As long as I, Wang Hong, are here, no one can bully her!" Wang Hong assured Xiao Qi after drinking down a glass of red wine.
Sister Zhiling next to me looked envious.
She really wants to be treated like this! (To be continued.)
