Go back to 1990 to start a business

Anna and the others lamented that business traps were everywhere. If it weren't for Xia Chuan, none of them would have seen the problem here.

But Xia Chuan mentioned this problem in Yanjing. Commercial contracts can only be guaranteed for a while. After other decoding chips are upgraded, new patents are not subject to the contract and can immediately overflow, losing control of the core technology, or being blackmailed at high prices. , or they sell it themselves.

In fact, in the previous life, Sun Yansheng and Jiang Wanmeng did not have such a sharp conflict.

Because they were established as a joint venture, each of them took a character for their name, and Wanyan was born.It sounds really like a dinner party, the Last Supper.

In this kind of joint venture, the initial interests must be consistent, otherwise Jiang Wanmeng would not be able to take risks.

As long as Jiang Wanmeng obtains the VCD patent, Sun Yansheng's technology will not overflow.

The problem is that Sun Yansheng's investment was wasted, so he doesn't sell it himself, but stupidly provides you with the exclusive supply of decoding chips. After all, he is not selling it on your territory. Is he used to your country's uncle?

But the problem Xia Chuan faced was acute.

Xia Chuan's technology company has nothing to do with Sun Yansheng. As long as he monopolizes the decoding chip, Sun Yansheng cannot get the profits from VCD.

So Sun Yansheng was embarrassed.

Xia Chuan made it clear, how do you answer it?

give up?How could you pass up this obvious opportunity to make money?

Sign an unequal treaty and give Xia Chuan a permanent monopoly?Wouldn't that be such a loss?

If an agreement cannot be reached, should he develop VCD by himself? If they invest [-] million US dollars, he can get the patent before Xia Chuan?

He had no confidence at all against Xia Chuan. The risk was too great.

If an agreement cannot be reached, Xia Chuan will definitely find another company to bypass patents or upgrade and find other solutions. Then he will make a decoding chip and sell it to whom?

Xia Chuan just looked at him with interest.

Sun Yansheng became more and more embarrassed. He couldn't come up with a solution even if he wanted to say something, and he was unwilling to give up.

Anna chuckled and asked simply: "Are you sincere in cooperating?"

Sun Yansheng said quickly: "Of course I am sincere, but the market is changing rapidly and accidents always happen. For example, what if you can't get the VCD patent? I can't sell it to others yet? So we can only take one step at a time and take care of each other. I need to find a balance point for my own interests, and it would be unrealistic for me to bear all the risks.”

Anna immediately asked, "Then if we acquire your company, wouldn't our interests be aligned?"

Sun Yansheng also immediately asked: "Valentin acquired Cisco and became the chairman of Cisco. Where is the founder? Was he kicked out?"

Anna didn't know about this yet, so she immediately asked Xia Chuan: "Is the old man so bad?"

Hahaha, Xia Chuan laughed:

"No, sister Anna, I would have done the same thing. The couple could only turn the company into a dirty business. But in Valentine's hands, Cisco will become a great technology giant. This has nothing to do with morality. Business has business. It's the rules of the game, and I haven't broken the law. This is what is meant by talking about business in business.

To put it another way, the success of a business depends entirely on the entrepreneur.It has little to do with how many patents you have.For example, the technology company founded by Valentine and I did not have any patents, but Wall Street financiers were willing to invest money in it. This is the reason.

Yansheng, my bottom line is here. If you agree to the acquisition, I will use this new company to acquire it. I want 51% of the equity.If you don't agree, I wish you success in your career and you can leave. I won't ask you to sign any contract. "

This straightforward showdown made Shiyun and others sweat. After all, everything Xia Chuan planned was based on Sun Yansheng's patent.

If Sun Yansheng's patent is bypassed, I don't know how long it will take to succeed.

Only Xia Chuan was extremely relaxed and truly calm.

In fact, Xia Chuan was not sure. He was just bragging. If Sun Yansheng really left, he would still go to Sun Yansheng to sign the contract.

But who could believe that a person of Xia Chuan's status would be so shameless and go back on his word?

But this is normal for Xia Chuan, but since his rebirth, he has never encountered anything that required him to do this.

But he gave Sun Yansheng the feeling that he didn't care about his patent at all. There must be other solutions, whichever one he chose would be fine.

Thinking about Xia Chuan's legendary experience, he felt deeply powerless. He didn't have enough to force such a person to compromise.

He asked tentatively: "What about after you acquire it?"

"You are still the general manager, that's for sure. I believe you are the most suitable CEO in the field of audio-visual technology. However, you are not good at strategy and development concepts, your grasp of market demand is not accurate enough, and your foresight is too poor. But I can do anything you can’t do.”

Everyone's hearts tightened, and for someone who is so desperate to attack him, he is an expert in the audio-visual field. He can find top talents who can prove that he is a top talent. Are you not afraid that he will become angry?

Sun Yansheng's face stiffened slightly, and then he asked: "Then you can make a forward-looking prediction for the audiovisual field?"

Xia Chuan smiled, "I want to make a foresight, but it is worth more than your company. The most important thing for a company is the right direction of development. But I can tell you. Whether you agree to the acquisition or not, I hope you will follow the right direction." We will continue on this path and promote the rapid development of audio-visual technology.”

Sun Yansheng was immediately awe-struck. At least Xia Chuan's realm was really higher than his, and he only wanted to use technology to promote human progress.

“Audio-visual technology is the foundation of artificial intelligence, and it is inevitable that technology will move towards artificial intelligence.

The three-dimensional world is the real world. Current shooting and display technology limits us to a flat world.For example, in games, all we see are two-dimensional images. How can we turn them into 3D images? "

Sun Yansheng suddenly became excited. Xia Chuan's words made him see the clearest direction of development.

Shiyun was always observing his reaction, sighing inwardly that this was really worth more than his company.

Xia Chuan continued calmly: "For humans, they can see things in the surrounding environment clearly through their eyes, and they can also identify and understand these things, and form cognitions and decisions about these things.

And artificial intelligence has to do the same thing.

Starting from human three-dimensional vision, three-dimensional intelligent vision will definitely become a popular field of artificial intelligence research and application.

With the deepening of intelligent vision applications, intelligent vision technology will enter the three-dimensional stage, that is, it is not only necessary to see something clearly and recognize something, but also to enter the scene and truly experience the scene in the three-dimensional world.

To be more specific, for example, if I wear a 3D helmet and the helmet is connected to the Internet, then what I see is a real picture, what I hear is a real sound, and what I even smell is a real smell. Of course, this is real in perception.

This requires intelligence with three-dimensional space perception and cognitive capabilities, that is, three-dimensional intelligent vision.

What support is needed to realize three-dimensional intelligent vision?It needs the support of big data. This big data is based on the Internet. It is not yet time to develop big data.

In the pursuit of audio-visual enjoyment, human beings are undoubtedly greedy..."

There was so much information in his words that Sun Yansheng barely had time to think about it. A new thing came out. While he was greedily absorbing it, the bodyguard suddenly walked in and interrupted:

"Boss, Steve Case from America Online has requested a meeting."

Xia Chuan was immediately overjoyed. What a great assist, but Sun Yansheng's expression changed slightly. Miguo Online was also in the audiovisual field. Although he couldn't make a decoding chip, who said Xia Chuan had to go the decoding chip route?

Xia Chuan immediately stood up and said, "Yan Sheng, that's it for today. If you agree to the acquisition, come back tomorrow. If you don't agree, I wish you good luck in your career."

Directly banishing guests, the subtext is that if you don't agree, don't come.

Sun Yansheng stood up slowly. When he stood up straight, he finally said: "I agree to the acquisition."

Shiyun and the other three slowly breathed a sigh of relief. It was really suspenseful.

"Oh." Xia Chuan said to the bodyguard: "Tell him that I am negotiating an acquisition and ask him to wait for a while."

The bodyguard turned and left.

Xia Chuan did not let Sun Yansheng sit down and said with a smile: "I don't know how many patents your company has. Just give me a quote."

Sun Yansheng said sincerely: "I will give you a fair valuation. I hope that we can make this company bigger together and not let it die halfway."

Xia Chuan said seriously: "What you said is exactly what I am best at. I will do this to make the company bigger, and no one will die."

Everyone smiled, and they understood that Sun Yansheng did not doubt Xia Chuan's ability, but was afraid that Xia Chuan would harm the interests of the technology company for the benefit of the company.

But after all, Sun Yansheng got a promise, and he felt relieved. He said: "For 1600 million U.S. dollars, I will give you 51% of the shares."

"OK. Deal." Xia Chuan stretched out his hand.

The two shook hands tightly, and Sun Yansheng asked with a smile: "Do you want to acquire Miguo Online?"

"Two different things. It has nothing to do with VCD." Xia Chuan said seriously.

Sun Yansheng nodded. He suspected that Xia Chuan was prepared with both hands, but he had nothing to say: "Then we will wait until your company is established?"

"Within three days." Xia Chuan gave an accurate promise.

Sun Yansheng was completely relieved and left immediately.
