Although the sales volume of Apple S3 was less than expected due to the trouble caused by Marching Ants, the data is still very impressive.Coupled with breakthroughs in artificial intelligence technology, in the long run, Apple's business will only get better and better.
They Samsung is not so lucky, there is no breakthrough in technology, and they will be squeezed by the army ant company.
"Mr. Zhao, 17.2% of the price of the whole machine is too high. What we can accept is 7.4%, which is the highest limit. No matter how high it is, we will have no profit." Gao Zhendong said.
"No profit? After installing the smart assistant, your price will increase by more than 17.2 to [-] percent, and your users will buy it. The price of [-]% doesn't seem high." Zhao Min said calmly.
At present, for a $400 mobile phone, baseband patents cost more than $50, and WI-FI technology patents also cost $50. Add up the main profit of the mobile phone, plus other patents, screens, batteries, spare parts, channel fees, and advertising. fees etc.
There is only so much profit that manufacturers can get, which is why companies such as Rice and Huawei have not made much money in the mobile phone field.
For a long time in the past, there was no domestic technology, and foreign technology was monopolized.
Products produced, including televisions, automobiles, mobile phones, computers and other electrical appliances, have to pay a large amount of foreign patent fees. If they do not produce, they will take away the bulk of the product profits. Domestic companies can only take a small part of the profits.
This situation still exists now.
What the Army Ant Company is doing now is what foreign capital companies did in the past.They have core technologies, and it is impossible to license these technologies at a low price.
"8.1%, that's the bottom line."
"16.9%, otherwise you can wait until the next time you come here. If you continue to talk like this, there will be no progress when it comes to tomorrow." Zhao Min said.
"Mr. Zhao, we have shown our sincerity. The price of 8.1% is already very high."
Gao Zhendong was very helpless, he experienced the powerlessness of being squeezed by others.It's just that they didn't know that when they squeezed the mobile phone but couldn't lose their temper, losing their temper here meant that the cooperation ended and his future would be affected.
"Is it high? I don't feel it." Zhao Min said calmly: "Well, let's back down a little, 16.6%. If we can't negotiate, let's do it next time."
Gao Zhendong took a deep breath: "10%, this is the bottom line. Even if we sell at a premium, those profits are here. If this is not possible, the cooperation cannot continue."
"Then goodbye." Zhao Min smiled lightly, got up and prepared to leave.
Seeing Zhao Min's actions, Gao Zhendong's face darkened.For the first time, he felt that this woman was difficult, she was simply unreasonable, and to put it bluntly, she was insatiable.
"Wait, Mr. Zhao." Gao Zhendong called Zhao Min to stop.
The 'negotiation' will continue. If it is dragged down by Zhao Min, we will negotiate next time and lose users, which is difficult to make up for.
"What? Agreed?" Zhao Min sat back in his seat.
"16% is really too high. It's impossible for any company to accept it. Even if you leave, I can't agree." Gao Zhendong said: "The highest is 11%. If it is higher, I really can't agree. "
"15.8%, or come over next time." Zhao Min said.
"Mr. Zhao, we have already given our sincerity, so it's not good for you to do this." Gao Zhendong held his breath, he didn't want to talk about it, but he had to talk about it.
"Since this is not good, let's talk about it next time? I have to go on a business trip tomorrow." Zhao Min said.
"11.5%." Gao Zhendong gritted his teeth and said.
The negotiation was still going on, Gao Zhendong looked aggrieved, and could only smash his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.Without mastering the core technology, you can only be threatened by others. This is a helpless reality.
An hour later, the negotiations stopped.
13.1%, the authorization fee, has hit the bottom line, which is a little higher than they expected.This woman Zhao Min is simply terrifying, knowing that they will definitely accept it, she will eat them to death.
"Pleasant to work with."
"Pleasant to work with."
After signing the licensing agreement, Gao Zhendong struggled to utter these words.
Chapter 259 Freshly Released
Coming out of the Army Ant Company, Gao Zhendong's complexion has not been good.After going back last time, they came to the Army Ant Company again, and they were ready to be slaughtered.
They expected that Marching Army Ant Company could only ask for 12% of the price even if the lion opened its mouth. But he underestimated the woman Zhao Min.
Although the difference is only 1.1%, at this price, it will cost Marching Ant Company billions more in technology fees a year.
He doesn't know the authorization fees of other companies, but he can be sure that they are definitely higher than those of several companies in Huaxia.
The only thing that can be done now is to get it back from the user.The price of mobile phones has increased by 13%, and mobile phones are only a few hundred yuan more expensive. Considering the current level of mobile phones and consumption, this price increase is still within the acceptable range of consumers.
"Let someone announce that we have reached a cooperation with Marching Ants. The new flagship machine S11 will be released in two weeks." Gao Zhendong said to the assistant next to him after getting into the car.
"Okay." The female assistant next to her nodded.
The news of the cooperation between Army Ant Company and Samsung Company swept through like the wind.When foreign countries are reporting, the domestic network has already climaxed.
Many netizens on the Internet were outraged by the cooperation between the two companies.For a long time, many people have felt disgusted with the country of South Korea.Now that Army Ant and Samsung have reached a cooperation, the debate on the Internet has resumed.
Some expressed disappointment with the army ants this time around, while others defended the company.
This is an era of globalization. It is normal for domestic mobile phone giants to cooperate with each other. Many companies use Samsung's screens and memory technology.
The controversy resumed, but the Army Ant Company ignored these remarks and continued to work as usual.
Because of this questioning voice, they have long been used to it.Over time, this kind of speech will disappear in the Internet.
As long as you use your brain to think about it, you will know that the cooperation between the two companies is the most normal thing. Besides, it is the army ants who license Samsung. If it is said to make money, it is the army ants who make their money.
At this time, Zhao Min was holding the phone in the office, and the pen in his right hand was tapping lightly on the table.
After licensing the smart assistant to Samsung, the fierce competition in the mobile phone market is still going on.However, they are not the parties involved, so there is not much movement in the army ant company, and they can compete in any way they want, making money silently is the kingly way.
"Mr. Alexander, I can't decide what you want to see our boss. I'll tell him later. If possible, let him meet you once when you come over."
"Okay, Ms. Zhao, I'm looking forward to our meeting."
After hanging up the phone, Zhao Min thought for a while and looked at the smart speaker on the desktop: "Mr. Mo, does the boss have time now?"
Now Marching Ant Company is full of artificial intelligence from top to bottom.
The entire ant nest headquarters is like a large intelligent building, and the intelligence of the building is connected to Chen Mo's personal intelligent assistant.
Chen Mo's artificial intelligence assistant is called Mo Nu. After following Chen Mo for so long, he still understands these things.
Mo Nu is also the most technologically advanced artificial intelligence of the Marching Ant Company, but no one knows her true intelligence level, because other than Chen Mo, no one else can use this artificial intelligence at all.
"President, wait a moment, let me ask." Mo Nu said, and not long after, Chen Mo's voice came from the speakers: "Are you looking for me?"
"There's something I want to tell you."
"Come to Building No. 3, Laboratory No. [-] on the second floor, and I'll show you something by the way."
"Has the holographic projector come out?" Zhao Min asked curiously.
She knew that the technology hidden in Building No. [-] was a terrifying secret. Now that Chen Mo had invented a new technology, she now doubted whether Chen Mo was an alien.
"You'll know when you come."
"It's still a secret."
Zhao Min muttered, got up and left the office.
Building No. [-], the number of times Zhao Min came here can be counted on two hands.Fully automatic production is adopted here, coupled with intelligent robots, all kinds of strange robots, without any human breath, but full of sense of technology.
Every time I come here, I have a feeling of seeing the future.Even she was worried that in sci-fi movies, robots betrayed and wanted to replace humans would really happen.
With Chen Mo's "imperial decree", Zhao Min entered Building No. 3, and all the way was smooth.Not long after, Zhao Min entered the No. [-] laboratory that Chen Mo mentioned.
"It's coming, you're right, the holographic projector is here." Chen Mo pointed to the product on the experimental table.
In front of him, there is a circular instrument on display, only the size of a laptop computer. The whole body is silver-white in color, exuding a brand-new luster. The instrument is covered with various small laser lights, as well as the precision parts inside the instrument. Accessories, full of sense of technology.
After Mo Nu's continuous work day and night, and with the help of 3D printers, the designed samples were manufactured.
This small instrument costs more than 200 million.
Chen Mo is designing a holographic projector, and Zhao Min, as the president of the company, still knows this information.But she was surprised that Chen Mo made it so quickly.
"Can this work?" Zhao Min asked.
"It's freshly released, and it's about to be tested. I don't know." Chen Mo said with a smile: "Mr. Mo, I'm going to start the holographic projection."
After Chen Mo pressed a button, he began to wait.
The light from the medium-sized holographic projector lights up and meets above the disc.
Not long after, a little girl in a white skirt appeared on the light curtain of the disc, she looked like an ancient little princess, very cute.
This little girl is the image of the Mo girl.
The projected image is still a bit transparent, but it is really three-dimensional, with 360 degrees without dead ends. If you don't know it, you may think a ghost is floating in the air.
Seeing this scene, Chen Mo smiled, and Zhao Min also showed a look of surprise, and turned around on the experimental table, looking carefully at Mo Nu from all angles.
She has only seen this kind of technology in sci-fi movies, but she saw it here today.
"Brother Mo." Mo Nu said: "The internal operation of the instrument is stable, mainly because there are some problems of color difference and color blur. Solving these problems, the images projected in the future will have a higher sense of reality, or add an extra projector, Linked projections from different directions can also increase the sense of reality.”
"Record the data, and I will start to calculate the parameters to optimize the color blur." Chen Mo said.
This holographic technology essentially forms a three-dimensional image in the air, similar to a mirage, but a little more advanced.
Unlike the two-dimensional projection on the plane, this is a true 360-degree holographic projection without dead ends.It can be used in various fields such as three-dimensional film, television, art exhibition, cultural relic protection, military map detection, microscopy, and underwater detection.
There is a future in this technology. Whoever masters and uses this technology first will get the ticket to the train to the future.
"How do you feel?" Chen Mo looked at Zhao Min.
"It's amazing, when will the technology mature?"
"It shouldn't be too long." Chen Mo said with a smile, "By the way, why are you looking for me?"
Only then did Zhao Min remember that she came here to find Chen Mo, seeing this, she almost forgot the business.
"The European Rothschild family wants to cooperate with us in the mobile phone business, and their heir Alexander wants to meet you."
Chapter 260 Ink Girl Destroys the Stage
The Rothschild family, this once powerful family, became well-known from "Currency War" and was legendaryized by various online novels.
At its peak, the financial power of this family could indeed affect a country's finances, but the reality today is that this family has declined, and its influence on the world is minimal.
In the late nineteenth century, the family made several fatal mistakes and suffered two wars and the expropriation of assets by the former Soviet Union.Now after historical changes, but not keeping up with the changes of the times, there is only one Rothschild bank, which ranks among the top [-] in the world.
It can be said that this former lion is old.
The book "Currency War" deifies the Luo family, coupled with the continuous expansion of various online works, many people think that this family is still the mysterious hand of world finance, but in fact it has declined and has little impact on the world.
But a lean camel is bigger than a horse.
Even if the Luo family is in decline, it still controls a top [-] investment bank in the world. Among them, the family's accumulated network resources over the years are still huge, which is beyond the reach of ordinary wealthy families.
The most typical case was when Geely acquired Volvo.Behind the acquisition of Snake Tunxiang, there is the help of the Luo family. Otherwise, the little snake of Geely would not be able to swallow the elephant of Volvo.
The presence of Roche in China is Rothschild Financial Group.
Over the years, this veteran family still has not given up its efforts to restore its former glory.
The first cooperation between Army Ant Company and Roche is the sales of intelligent robots.The agent right of the intelligent robot in Europe is a company controlled by the Roche family.
For such a long time, their mobile phone business has not entered Europe.A big reason is the joint blockade of major European telecommunications companies.
It may be that they are worried that their mobile phones will enter the market and touch the vested interests of too many people. This is what the oligarchs behind do not want to see.
Now that the Luo family wants to cooperate with them in the mobile phone business, it is obviously a bit ambitious.
"They really said they want to cooperate in the mobile phone business?" Chen Mo asked.
"Yes."
Zhao Min nodded affirmatively.
"Alexander took over the Rothschild bank from his father when he was 37 years old. For his age, it is ridiculous to take over the bank at such a young age.
But the world is different now. As the talented manager of the Luo family, the hope of the Luo family's comeback also falls on him, so it must be more risky to act.It was his idea to act as an agent of intelligent robots last time and to cooperate with us in the mobile phone business this time. "
"High-risk, high-yield, in this era, age does not mean great wisdom. It would be best if we can cooperate. Although the mobile phone business is not our main business now, no one has too much money, especially foreigners. money."
"He may come over in the next few days, and then I will ask him to come and meet you?" Zhao Min asked.
"Yes." Chen Mo nodded.
"I'm leaving first, so I won't disturb your research." Zhao Min looked at the holographic projector on the experimental table, turned and left.
As soon as Zhao Min left, Chen Mo turned to look at the computer screen: "Mr. Mo, now let's optimize the problem of blurred colors and call out the formula."
