With regard to the power supply problem of the new car, the communication system needs to be considered next. Bao Zixuan already had a plan to deal with this, and Motorola entered his field of vision once again.
Although Heiyun Automobile is a local company in the United States, he is an outsider after all. It will not be trusted by the US side, so it is imperative to draw a strong ally. The communication system is related to national defense and security, and it is difficult to be trusted with the background of the black cloud automobile. Motorola is a supplier to NASA, and Armstrong used their equipment to send back sound from the moon.
It has cooperated with the US side in many aspects and is definitely one of the trusted companies.
Regarding this matter, Bao Zixuan deliberately communicated with Robert Calvin on the phone, but the process still has some twists and turns.
It is not uncommon for Bao Zixuan to call Motorola Chairman Robert Calvin. The two are not only partners, but also friends. For a certain demand, of course, I want to hide my strength. Black Cloud phones and super base computers have been using chips made by Motorola, one of the company's largest customers.
For this time Bao Zixuan's invitation to participate in the research and development of the new military vehicle communication system, Robert Calvin could not refuse. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the black cloud is definitely out of play. Rather than wasting time, it is better to have a good negotiation with the other two companies.
There are no human feelings in business, and the business field is more focused on interests. At a time when the U.S. government has basically handed over orders to GM and Ford, Robert Calvin doesn't want to intersect with the dark clouds in this regard. That will not only get the order, but also make the US side misunderstand.
Motorola's involvement would be a bit sour and would be seen as one of the bidders. Not only will it have a certain impact on the decision-making of the Department of Defense, but it may also lead to misunderstandings among the American people.
Of course, if you have money, you want to earn it, but it also depends on what kind of money you earn, and whether you can earn it with such good luck. Obviously, it is not a good thing to cooperate with the Black Cloud Group to bid for this military vehicle project. The possible result is that the fox didn't get hit, and it also got into a show.
Bao Zixuan was annoyed that Motorola rejected the invitation for joint research and development from Heiyun Group. He really thought that he was invincible in the field of communication, but it was just that the black cloud did not reveal his strength. But now the time is not ripe, let Motorola be arrogant.
So the richest man in Bao could only bite the bullet and call Robert Calvin in person.
Bao Zixuan: "Mr. Calvin, my old friend. I haven't heard your voice for a long time, but I miss you very much."
Of course, Robert Calvin knew why Bao Zixuan called. The other party is definitely not concerned about themselves, and some businessmen will be particularly concerned about their partners and competitors.
There is no such a coincidence in the world. Just in the morning, the invitation for cooperation from the Black Cloud Group was rejected. In the afternoon, Bao Zixuan called. The other party obviously wanted to convince him, or he was dissatisfied, and came to Xing Shi to ask his guilt.
These are all normal, and it is not a good thing for young people to go all the way down too smoothly. Let Motorola teach him a lesson today. Don't think that everything is due, that no one in this world owes anyone.
Motorola's cooperation with Black Cloud Group can bring huge benefits. In comparison, the Black Cloud Group earns more. Although there are other competitors, in the eyes of Robert Calvin, his company's products are the world's first.
Robert Calvin said with a smile: "Mr. Bao, I haven't heard your voice for a long time. But there is a lot of news about you, and the business is getting bigger and bigger, which is really enviable. It seems that we are really old people. Well, you have taught American industrial companies a good lesson."
Robert Calvin is a well-known figure in the American business community, and the old military vehicle project is obviously the business of the Department of Defense's black cloud group. This kid is also amazing enough to be able to make a living from a money-losing business. Some series of operations have been stunned by American business celebrities, and their views on Bao Zixuan have risen to a new level.
Neither mainland China nor the Middle East countries, including Brazil, are fools. This kid can actually sell the product without the buyer seeing it, and it's a second-hand product. It requires absolute trust from customers and recognition of their strength. More importantly, you have a deep network of contacts, otherwise people will not care about you at all.
It can be said that Bao Zixuan has calculated everything from the very beginning. Jedi is a person who takes one step and sees three steps. You have to know that this kid is still so young, it's okay to be a little more mature.
Robert Calvin knew that the Black Cloud Group would definitely be a formidable rival in the future. Now that's the case with Motorola, what he's thinking about is a possible threat to America's position. Mainly in the industrial sector, of course. No businessman or business has yet been able to shake the political position of the United States of America in the world. Not even the Soviet Union, let alone Bao Zixuan, a young man.
Therefore, for the Heiyun Group, it is necessary to cooperate and take precautions. This scale is difficult to grasp, but Robert Calvin feels Motorola has no problem.
Bao Zixuan: "Mr. Robert is joking, everyone is an old friend. The Black Cloud Group wants to compete for the new US military vehicle project, and hopes to get technical support from Motorola in terms of communication. We are cooperating once in the field of communication."
"It's a good opportunity to enhance Motorola's reputation and technical strength. I believe that the combination of Motorola and Heiyun Group will not be ignored by the US government."
This is to show that with the influence of Motorola, the wishful thinking is loud enough. I want to keep rejecting you; how could it be possible to cooperate on the military vehicle project, wouldn't that be poked in the spine by a local American company!
Rejection is also a kind of knowledge, at least it can't tear one's face. At this time, Motorola still needs Heiyun orders, at least in the future, it can't be too offended.
Robert Calvin: "Mr. Bao, regarding the cooperation request from Black Cloud Group. Motorola has received it, but the company's board of directors is not optimistic about this project."
"Everyone is an old friend, so I'll tell you straight. The Department of Defense means to hand over the order to GM and Ford. I believe you should know even if I don't say it."
"They've spent a lot of time hiring PR firms to lobby the White House and the military. Other companies are basically useless, including Black Cloud Motors."
"Although Motorola has a certain military background, it cannot over-consume."
Robert Calvin's meaning was obvious, and he persuaded Bao Zixuan to give up voluntarily. In this way, everyone does not get angry, and they are still friends when they meet. Rejecting the Black Cloud Group is a business matter, mainly a board decision. But now that Bao Zixuan has called him, he must not use a tough tone. The young man is full of vigor, and he can't get any benefit from angering the opponent Motorola.
Bao Zixuan said deliberately: "Don't the US purchase rely on product quality and performance! Is there still a black box operation here, which is very inconsistent with the country's temperament that has always advertised freedom and democracy."
Hearing Bao Zixuan say this, Robert Calvin thought to himself. The kid is still too young; he still believes in getting a fair chance. Arms sales must take care of local companies, and the US government will never treat the black cloud as its own.
If Motorola chooses to jointly develop with Heiyun, it will certainly offend GM and Ford, and it will run counter to the plans of the White House and the Department of Defense. Even though Motorola is deeply rooted in the United States, it does not dare to offend so many companies and institutions at once.
Robert Calvin: "Mr. Bao is still young and has never contacted the American side before. Fair competition basically does not exist, and the balance of interests is the prerequisite for cooperation."
"As a friend, I can only say so much, and I may make mistakes in many cases. Please involve a lot of confidentiality principles in military affairs I hope you can understand the difficulties of Motorola."
How could Bao Zixuan give up so easily, otherwise it would not be him. Even if the order for military vehicles cannot be won, the water will be muddy. So he said with a smile: "As the world's most technologically powerful communications company, Motorola doesn't want to develop further!"
"Of course I know that the US government can't get the order, but Saudi Arabia and Kuwait in the Middle East also need new military vehicles. The US government is more of a pretense, and the Middle East is the target of the dark cloud."
"This time, we don't need Motorola to come forward with the U.S. government. Everything will be negotiated by Heiyun Group. We will only use the Motorola logo on the in-vehicle communication equipment. If you don't agree, you can also use the Heiyun logo."
Hearing that, Robert Calvin felt there was some truth to it. But worry about cheating, after all, Bao Zixuan is not a good man and a woman.
He is still very optimistic about the Middle East market. At least Motorola should not give up, so agreed to send a technical working group to Black Cloud Auto. The premise is to promise them that they can withdraw at any time if they find something wrong.
Robert Calvin was worried that he would be misunderstood by the military, and he would be speechless.
