The First Thousand Four Hundred and Seventy-Nine Chapters Raise the Price

"President Feng, the people from IBM have contacted me again, they want us to do a favor. -79 Novel Network -

"

"What help?" Feng Yu was very curious. Since everyone has stopped cooperating, and the acquisition has not been discussed, what can we help? Are you familiar with them?

"Raise the price!"

Raise the price? Feng Yu understood that IBM was looking for a new buyer. He was afraid that the other party's bid would be too low, so he asked Lianxiang Group to pretend to buy it and raise the price.

"Oh? Then what's the benefit of us?" Helping in vain is definitely not possible. IBM is not a Huaxia company. Everyone is still a competitor, not one's own at all.

"All of IBM's patented technologies on PC can be licensed to us. It is not a short-term license, but a long-term license."

Licensing is not the same as selling. Licensing to Lianxiang Group means that Lianxiang Group can use it, conduct research and development on the existing basis, and improve technology. But there are also restrictions, that is, Lianxiang Group only has the right to use it, and it has no ownership, so it can no longer license the technology to other companies.

However, this permanent license is enough. Even within the patent protection period, even the Xiang Group can use it all the time, only need to pay the license fee once, and the price will be relatively much cheaper.

In this way, Lianxiang Group's technology will be greatly supplemented and improved, allowing them to fully enter the high-end market.

"What about the authorized price? Is there a discount?" Feng Yu asked.

"No, but it's more reasonable, and the price is a little lower than when we wanted to buy it." Liu Chuanzhi thinks this is good, because IBM refused to authorize some key technologies even if the group offered a high price.

And this time, he only needs to help perform a play, and he can get the opportunity to purchase these patented technology licenses at a reasonable price. Liu Chuanzhi is very moved.

Hearing that there are no more discounts, Feng Yu is a little regretful. It didn't take advantage of it, why does it feel like a loss?

"You've decided, and I'm with you. By the way, who is the new buyer ibm is looking for?"

"Two companies, one is the Four Star Group and the other is the Suni Group."

Four Stars and Suo Ni? They are all Asian consumer electronics giants. Feng Yu realized after thinking about it. If IBM were to sell to a North American company, the value of sales channels, factories, and brands would be greatly reduced.

However, Asian companies can use ibm's pc business to enter Europe and the United States, so as to maximize their value.

So IBM wants to find Dai and wait for the price to rise, and they are not stupid, they won't believe it at all. But if Lianxiang Group joins the competition, then these two companies will definitely believe it, because it is no secret that Liu Chuanzhi has indicated that he will acquire IBM's PC business a long time ago.

"Go for it, I believe in you."

Not only can you get the technology you want, but you can also pull your competitors into the water, killing two birds with one stone. Feng Yu doesn't really like these two companies.

Well, maybe those two companies don't like Lianxiang Group or Feng Yu either.

...

"President, IBM really wants to sell their PC business, and Lianxiang Group has sent Liu Chuanzhi to negotiate in person. And President Park Yitian of Four Star Electronics Co., Ltd. has also gone to the United States. Their goal is also this. This The news must be true, shouldn't we talk about it?"

Noga Oga listened to his subordinate's report, staring at the world map on the wall in a daze.

Opportunity, this is a good opportunity. IBM, once the only overlord in the IT industry, is one of the top companies even now. The current standard is still the one developed by IBM. They are going to sell the pc business to focus on software and servers?

If IBM's pc business income can be subordinated, then Suoni's pc sales will definitely increase, and it will become the world's top five!

Combined with the technical advantages of ibm and Suoni, and research and development innovation, it may not be long before they can become the world's top three, or even the world's number one!

Liu Chuanzhi went there himself.

The four-star group only sent the chairman of the Electronics Co., Ltd. to go, which is not enough. Dahe Dianxiong decided to talk about it himself.

"I see, you go and call the two vice presidents, Koizumi and Inoue, to come over. I'll tell them some things." After the "hands" are done, he will set off for the United States.

The plane took off and landed, and Dana Oga appeared in New York.

The people from the Suoni branch have already sent someone to pick up the plane. After getting in the car, they began to report to Dahe Dianxiong.

"Let's talk about other things later, Liu Chuanzhi and Park Yitian have already been in contact with people from IBM?" Dahe Dianxiong asked in a deep voice.

"Liu Chuanzhi has been in contact with ibm many times, and it seems inevitable. But I think they have the least chance, because Lianxiang Group invested in Lianxiang Yinshan some time ago, in order to help Lianxiang Yinshan promote xos and Their WPS office software, so their funds are definitely not enough."

"On the contrary, Four Star Electronics Co., Ltd. has a great opportunity. They have developed well in recent years and have sufficient funds. They are likely to be our biggest competitors."

"No, our biggest competitor is still Lianxiang Group. First of all, Lianxiang Group and ibm have cooperated for a long time, and the two sides have more contacts, and the negotiation will progress very quickly. Secondly, Liu Chuanzhi has long planned to acquire IBM's PC business. This Many people in the industry know it. As for the funding issue you mentioned, this is not a problem. If there is not sufficient capital, they can use stocks to discount, maybe ibm will be more willing." Dianxiong Oga has a completely opposite view.

Lianxiang Group is also a company that is on the rise. The stock of this kind of company is definitely a high-quality stock. Others can't buy it if they want to buy it. IBM is also a good investment, and those shareholders must be satisfied.

That said, Sunni's opponent is very strong. Both companies are not very easy to deal with. But in the end, it still depends on who has a higher price and whose conditions are more satisfactory to ibm.

"Contact ibm as soon as possible, I want to meet with them as soon as possible to test it out."

The longer the delay, the greater the possibility of a negotiation between IBM and Lianxiang Group. At that time, even if he offered good conditions, he might not be able to cut the beard, and Oga Dianxiong was a little anxious about this.

What worries him the most is that if Liu Chuanzhi of Lianxiang Group, like Feng Yu, pays attention to a quick strategy in acquiring a company that he likes, then maybe they haven't talked about it yet, and the other party has already signed the contract!

At this time, Liu Chuanzhi was indeed negotiating with IBM's senior management, but not to acquire their PC business, but to obtain the authorization of PC patent technology.

At this time, Liu Chuanzhi had already brought his technicians to select his favorite patented technologies, screened out some relatively backward technologies, and then removed some similar technologies owned by Lianxiang Group. The remaining technologies were used for negotiation.

"Lu, Miller, these are the list of patented technologies we want to obtain authorization. Please give us a quotation as soon as possible." Liu Chuanzhi 'handed over' the printed list to the people at ibm.

"Okay, within three days, we will give an absolutely reasonable offer, and I hope that within three days, Lianxiang Group can give us a reasonable offer."

Liu Chuanzhi smiled slightly: "Of course no problem, we will achieve a win-win situation."
