Seeing that the atmosphere in the whole conference room had eased down, Harry Potter sighed and said, "everyone, just now everyone was angry. I also had some small abacus, so I cheated everyone!"
"But I think everyone should calm down now, so I'll talk to you from the bottom of my heart and you will understand my pains!" said Harry Potter. "President Albert is right. If there is no big deal, Qualcomm can swallow the whole CDMA market, and no enterprise in the world can compete with Qualcomm in CDMA!"
"But have you ever thought about a problem, that is, if there is no Daqian and Warwick, the Chinese market will also be occupied by GSM. A month ago, Daqian and I have been negotiating, so I know very clearly how much effort, effort and money Daqian spent to layout CDMA successfully!"
Next, Harry Potter told everyone how Daqian handled the market. Then they realized that the Chinese market did not come out of thin air, but was painstakingly operated by Daqian and Warwick.
We are not fools. Without Daqian and Warwick, Huaxia would not adopt CDMA, but GSM, which is now almost an international standard.
"In fact, we can also layout China like Daqian!" one director said unconvinced.
"Hehe, to be honest, if we didn't know that Warwick sold CDMA base stations in China, who really paid attention to the Chinese market? Does Qualcomm have a branch in China, even if there is only one regional manager?" Harry Potter asked, and everyone immediately closed their mouth.
Yes, they never really cared about the Huaxia market. In their mind, Huaxia is a poor pimple, which is similar to the Indian tribe. How can Huaxia engage in mobile communication!
If Nokia hadn't suddenly appeared this time, they wouldn't know that China still has such a huge market!
"If we don't know the Chinese market, it's impossible to operate the Chinese market. Not to mention that we are foreign parties and don't understand the national conditions of China at all. Without the operation of local enterprises such as Daqian and Warwick, it's impossible for China to engage in CDMA."
"So we need to see through the essence of things, that is, Daqian and Warwick actually helped us develop the market. If Warwick and Daqian can't do CDMA, we won't have the Chinese market!"
"That's why I'm willing to sign a contract with Daqian!" Harry Potter sighed. "At that time, Daqian made it clear to me that if you can't get the patent authorization for CDMA, Daqian will never develop CDMA base stations in China, and Daqian can only turn to GSM. If so, where can we still have the market in China?"
"Now, I have authorized the patent to Daqian, and Daqian has successfully opened up the Chinese market. At the same time, Daqian Huawei and I have made it very clear in the contract that Qualcomm can also sell in China, and both sides can have fair commercial competition. In this way, Daqian will help Qualcomm open the Chinese market. At that time, everyone will pay in the Chinese market Feng, are our business elites still afraid of competing with a group of buns? "Harry Potter's words caused a burst of laughter in the conference room, and everyone's mood was much better.
"In addition, Daqian gave us $300 million. Although it is not as huge as the US $2 billion we asked for, this figure is not much lost. Entering Qualcomm with us $300 million is like a long drought and rain. In fact, we have less than US $5 million left on Qualcomm's book. If we go on like this, Qualcomm may not even be able to operate unless new people inject capital The camp can't go down! "
"I'm here to assure you that of the $300 million, in addition to the funds given to you, the remaining $255 million will be invested in Qualcomm's daily operation and development, so that Qualcomm won't have to worry about funds for at least two years. Isn't that borrowing the enemy's hands and funds to make us live!" laughed Harry Potter,
The crowd could not help nodding. Yes, indeed, that's right!
"The last point, which I have to promise!" Harry Potter sighed again, then snapped his fingers, and his secretary sent a thick material to Harry Potter, who put it in front of Albert.
"Mr. President, please look at this information!" said Harry Potter.
"Hmm!" Albert opened the information with some doubts, looked at it for a few eyes, and his pupils stared out in an instant. Then he quickly read the next information. After reading it for more than 20 minutes, he put down the information, looked at Harry Potter and said, "these technologies have been conquered by thousands?"
"Of course, Daqian has applied for global patents on these technologies. How can they be fake!" said Harry Potter. "Daqian doesn't take away our technologies and patents in vain. In fact, Daqian has also been studying CDMA Technology in recent years. Although it has not achieved as many results as us, it has also made many important achievements, with a total of 67 CDMA patents!"
"I don't understand these technologies and patents very well. I don't know what President Albert thinks of these technologies and patents?" Harry Potter asked.
"Hey, I can't imagine that Chinese people still have such scientific research ability!" Albert still looked incredible. He looked at the catalogue of these patents and finally sighed "Among the 67 patents, more than a dozen patents are very important, which directly blocks our way of further research. As for the remaining dozens of patents, it is also very important, involving all aspects of technology. If they are stuck, they need to consume a lot of money to go around."
"Let's say that the most important dozen patents will block our way forward in CDMA technology, because if we want to continue to develop CDMA technology, we must obtain the authorization of these patents, otherwise, we can't move forward at all!"
"As for the remaining patents, although there is a way to get around, it will cost more. It is equivalent to a huge stone blocking the road, which is very uncomfortable!" Albert shook his head.
"According to our agreement, Daqian will also license these 67 patents to us for free. Qualcomm can use them. Now we don't need to be restricted and troubled by these patents and can continue to rush towards CDMA technology. I also reached a follow-up licensing agreement with Daqian. In the future, all technology patents developed by both sides should be granted to each other first, but each time we grant them All rights are subject to different licensing fees according to the value of patented technology, so please seize the time and work hard to develop and harvest more CDMA technology patents, so as not to be ridiculed that Qualcomm is not as good as a Chinese enterprise! "Harry Potter.
"Yes!" everyone nodded one after another, and a feeling of unyielding came out. They secretly vowed to work hard, seize the time to engage in scientific research and thoroughly compare those damn chinese people.
"I really don't understand whether these Chinese are people or ghosts? Why did they quietly develop these CMDA technologies that we haven't developed? Chinese people still have such terrible scientific research ability? Aren't Chinese people as stupid as Indians, but as smart as white people?" Albert said unbelievably.
"Hey, actually, I have realized this for a long time!" another scientist shareholder present said "As you all know, I'm actually a professor at Yale University. Among the students I teach, the students who get the best grades and work the most hard are always those of Chinese descent, or just foreign students from China. Their IQ is by no means lower than us, but far higher than us in hard work and diligence. If all Chinese people in the world can enjoy and enjoy the same If we have the same education as the United States, I'm afraid China will become our biggest opponent in less than 100 years! "
"Well, let's not talk about these digressions!" said Harry Potter. "Do you still think that I did a stupid thing by licensing our Qualcomm patents?"
……
There was a sudden silence in the whole conference room, and then Albert stood up and said, "Mr. Harry Potter is really dedicated to the development of Qualcomm. These decisions are wise decisions. There is no mistake. We are wrong. We should not lose our temper without knowing the truth!"
"Yes!"
"We are too reckless!"
People said one after another. There was a smile on Harry Potter's face. He stood up and said "Thank you, Mr. President, for your fair evaluation. In fact, I have done something I shouldn't do today, but I can't help it. I'm just an agent of the foundation. The shareholders of our foundation require me to completely control Qualcomm. I can only make such a bad decision to take away your equity."
"However, I still have some rights. I can turn the equity I just bought from you into Dividend Equity and send money to you. In the future, as long as you stay in Qualcomm and continue to contribute to the development of Qualcomm, the dividend right of equity will remain the same. At the same time, I still have the right to speak, the position of director and even the dividend right in the board of directors It can be passed on to your descendants for up to 50 years. "
"However, once you leave Qualcomm, these dividend rights will disappear. I don't know if you can forgive me for taking such a decision. Can you continue to stay at Qualcomm and work together for the future development of Qualcomm?"
Seeing that the equity just bought by Harry Potter has returned, although there is only dividend right, it is enough for them. After all, their equity is originally used for dividend. In addition, they have no other way to use these equity.
So after hearing what Harry Potter said, everyone smiled with satisfaction, and then unanimously expressed that they were willing to stay at Qualcomm and continue to develop new CDMA technology!
