Sprinkle coins every day

It's like saying.

If all the loans and corporate debts are paid off now, there will be no penny in Germination's account.

It can be seen that the germination capital chain is indeed tight.

Before spending 2 million yuan to acquire land in Houhai to build the headquarters building of Maili Technology, he turned around and mortgaged the land to the bank, and borrowed 1.5 million yuan in mortgage loans from the bank.

The "actual expenditure" for buying land is only 0.5 million yuan, and the proportion of funds is only 25%.

Of course, viewed from another angle, Germination is now the time with the most abundant funds, even if it is about to pay Nokia a down payment of US$5 million.There is still nearly a billion yuan in liquidity remaining in the account.

Sufficient germination to start follow-up business activities.

Not to mention, after obtaining the patent license, if Maili Technology wants to really operate, in addition to recruiting people at the headquarters, it also needs to prepare for the establishment of research and development laboratories across the country.

It is used to digest the patent license bought from Nokia in the shortest possible time.

otherwise.

Why can Maili Technology launch the first mobile phone of Maili Technology in the next year?

It's not that Zhang Shuo is in a hurry.

But the mobile phone industry has only been in the limelight for the past two years. Compared with Xiaomi, Maili Technology has already started late. If it does not catch up, it will produce a finished product next year.

After that, there is probably no chance.

And for a mobile phone, from R&D and design, to production and manufacturing, to sales and operation, and finally after-sales service, the construction of the entire system requires a lot of money.

And it's a lot of money.

It can be seen from this that the 2 million US dollars obtained by selling wichat is so important to the subsequent development of Sprout, otherwise it will really be hollowed out by a single transaction from Nokia.

…………

the next day.

Zhang Shuo took the plane, accompanied by Chen Xiaowan and others, and flew to the Europa continent for the first time.

It was also his first time abroad.

Chapter 210 Tens of billions of coins, sprouts shine all over the world!

As one of the five Nordic countries, Finland is definitely in a class of its own.

In addition to the birth of world-renowned companies such as Nokia and Nestle, there are many well-known companies in many fields such as papermaking, chemicals, rubber, energy, and finance.

UPM Group, for example, is the world's third largest paper and paper products manufacturer with a century-old history.

Simultaneously.

Finland is also the home of Santa Claus and Clash of Clans.

Benefit from this.

Finland is also rated as one of the happiest countries in the world.

Zhang Shuo and his party first flew to Shanghai, and then changed planes in Shanghai. After flying in the air for nearly eleven hours, they landed at Vantaa International Airport at 14:40 local time.

Apart from Chen Xiaowan, Li Feng, translators, and reporters from Binhai Daily, they accompanied her.

The record-setting transaction of US$15 billion is important financial news even internationally, and it is even more important financial news domestically.

Of course, the local media in Binhai City had to go to the front line to report and grab the headlines.

Just got off the plane.

Gu Mingzhang and his party were waiting at the airport and took the bus to the hotel.

Take a break.

In the living room of the suite, Zhang Shuo met with the main members of the team that Gu Mingzhang dug from Nokia. There are nine people in total, including operations, mobile phone operating system research and development, mobile phone overall design, mobile phone hardware research and development, mobile phone chip design, mobile phone manufacturing management, etc. Top talents in the field.

Nine of them are industry-leading talents, and the real team has a total of more than 200 people.

And this is just the first batch.

Once Nokia sells its mobile phone business to Microsoft in the future, it can continue to recruit more engineers and developers from Nokia to continuously enrich the R&D and design team of Maili Technology.

Among them, there are two cores.

One is Song Yun.

Former deputy director of Nokia R&D Center, familiar with mobile phone overall design, software and hardware design, chip design and other links, is a real technical expert.

According to Gu Mingzhang's recommendation, Song Yun will serve as the technical director of Maili Technology.

One is Xue Tao.

The former director of Symbian system research and development will also be the main operator of the mali mobile phone operating system.

Of course.

Mali will be based on the secondary development of the Android system, rather than starting from scratch like Nokia.

Zhang Shuo wanted to start a new stove, so as not to be controlled by others in the future. With Microsoft's technical research and development level, the WP system developed was stumbling.

How can we expect the nascent wheat technology to surpass the two mountains of ios and android?

Unrealistic.

Even if it is necessary to start a new stove, it will be three to five years later.

The most urgent task facing Maili Technology now is to come up with a finished mobile phone that can be recognized by consumers within one year.

This is the most important.

When they met for the first time, Zhang Shuo didn't have a deep chat, but just met each other and got to know each other.

After returning home.

Zhang Shuo is really looking forward to talking with Song Yun about the technical parameters, design concept, and future development path of the wheat grain mobile phone, and other strategic issues.

Although Yuan Shikong is not engaged in the mobile phone industry, he at least understands the evolution trend of mobile phones in the next ten years.

Take as few detours as possible.

…………

7 pm.

According to the practice of international business activities, Nokia arranged a vice president to host a banquet for Zhang Shuo and his party, and at the same time finalized some details for tomorrow's media signing ceremony.

Yes.

In view of the extraordinary significance of this cooperation, as agreed between Nokia and Bud Group, a media signing ceremony will be held tomorrow, and Nokia has invited many international media.

Germination here is Binhai Daily.

Originally, Zhang Shuo was also considering whether to notify higher-level official media to participate in the report, but he finally gave up this idea when he thought of the private nature of the Germination Group.

Just let it be.

Anyway, with the presence of the Binhai Daily, the news could quickly spread throughout the country.

It's just a reprint.

In fact, the atmosphere of the banquet was just like that. From the fact that Nokia only arranged for a vice president to receive it, instead of an equivalent president, or even the chairman, we knew that Nokia still had a little western arrogance.

In his bones, he looked down on Germination.

What can Zhang Shuo do?We can only hold back, who told us that we are now the party with backward technology.

It can only turn aggrieved into motivation.

The only fortunate thing may be that under the blessing of Xueba halo, Zhang Shuo's English has improved rapidly, and now he can read any English news and books without barriers.

That is, the spoken pronunciation is not very authentic, but it does not affect the most basic communication.

Although he doesn't want to admit it, but in Zhang Shuo's position, he will have to deal with crooked nuts on many occasions in the future, and even sign documents in English.

If you are not proficient in English, you may really make a fool of yourself.

original time.

The scene of Rebs' English press conference was a carnival feast of internet jokes.

…………

the next morning.

Because of jet lag, Zhang Shuo didn't sleep well last night, so he got up early in the morning, and accompanied by Li Feng, went for a morning jog in the park near the hotel.

After warming up, I played Tai Chi proficiently.

There are also many Finnish local morning joggers in the park. Seeing Zhang Shuo's posture, they all gave thumbs up and shouted: "Chinese gongfu!!!"

Another year, young people took the initiative to say hello, and tentatively asked, "May I ask if you are Mengya Zhang?"

"I am, are you?"

Zhang Shuo was very surprised. He didn't expect that there were people in Finland who knew him.

Is he so famous?

"It's really Zhang!!" The young man was even more pleasantly surprised than Zhang Shuo, and said excitedly, "I'm Paananing from Super Cell Game Studio, and the budding game is really great!!!"

"Ting!!!"

Zhang Shuo's expression was a little embarrassed. He didn't expect to meet the person in charge of Supercell, the production company of "Clash of Clans", just for a jog in the park.

In fact.

Supercell Studio was established as early as 2010. The first two games developed, gunshine and battle buddies, both ended in failure.

It wasn't until the advent of "Cartoon Farm" that it gained some fame.

Then came Clash of Clans.

What kind of experience is it to cut off someone's work and become someone's idol?

Anyway, Zhang Shuo left quite embarrassed.

He didn't even think about investing in Super Cell Studio, it's already like this, and it doesn't make sense to invest again, at most, it's just that he didn't start with "Cartoon Farm".

You have to leave something for others.

Anyway, "Cartoon Farm" is not the only similar mobile game. For example, "Happy Farm" and "Dream Town" are relatively classic farm simulation management mobile games.

Of course, "Happy Farm" was launched as early as 2008.

…………

09:30am.

Zhang Shuo finally met Elop, the president and CEO of Nokia. This big man who jumped from Microsoft to Nokia last year returned to Microsoft after Nokia's mobile phone business was acquired by Microsoft.

No wonder people keep talking about it on the Internet.

What to say as early as 2010, Microsoft was making a big move to acquire Nokia, and when Microsoft acquired Activision Blizzard in 2022, it also had similar operations.

Just very soft.

"The global structure of smartphones has basically been settled. Apple, Samsung, and Nokia are three pillars. Why did Sprout choose to enter the market at this time?" Elop asked curiously.

This was indeed what puzzled him the most. He couldn't figure out what Germination was trying to figure out.

"Because China's market is big enough." Zhang Shuo said with a smile.

"But as far as I know, China does not account for a high proportion of global smartphone shipments." Elop is not so easy to fool.

"Doesn't that just prove that the Huaxia market still has huge potential?"

"I hope it's as you say."

Elop was also very sensible and didn't get to the bottom of it.

After half an hour.

Under the witness of many media reporters, the two signed the contract together.

The whole ceremony was actually very brief.

But this transaction itself was shocking enough, and some reporters couldn't help but ask questions.

"May I ask Mr. Zhang, does Mengya spend a lot of money to buy Nokia's patent license, does it just prove that your company's lack of R&D can only be exploited?"
