Reinventing the Millennium.

Chapter 889 Doer (4K)

Huawei's senior management team was very happy to visit Shencheng Yike.

Zheng Baoyong and Chen Zhaohui want to prevent the sale of Huawei terminals and are willing to strengthen cooperation with Bingxin.

Fang Zhuo is willing to go with the flow and help solve a small problem that he doesn't know "has ever existed".

Judging from current observations, Huawei's transition from OEM to brand is likely to be attempted after the end of cooperation with Vodafone, or it may be affected by the outbreak of the domestic market and enter the market early.

Because of Yike, because of the promotion of the Android system, and because of the overseas sales of Mars, Fang Zhuo can feel the eagerness of some domestic mobile phone manufacturers and those outside the industry.

The significance of Mars sales to some people may be... It turns out that domestic brands can also stand in the mid-to-high-end market circle!
And, Yike was successful in making a mobile phone for the first time, so why can't he try it himself?
In fact, Fang Zhuo also hopes to see some new faces, but he doesn't know if there are any people who can break out from the domestic market.

The communication with Ren Zhengfei was not carried out immediately. According to Zheng Baoyong, after they went back, they would cooperate internally and externally, relying on external opinions and strong internal suggestions to reverse Mr. Ren's decision in one fell swoop.

Zheng Baoyong was very serious and serious, and wanted to match his words with Mr. Fang.

But Fang Zhuo felt that this matter didn't need to be so troublesome, and he could just call Mr. Ren and connect directly.

Since the Huawei team came, in addition to three people chatting about terminal sales, they also talked about the PRO alliance that caused this trip.

As Huawei's No. 002 employee, Zheng Bao spoke highly of the framework formed by Yike and Google, and believed that once the PRO alliance can operate, it will pave the way for the development of the Android system.

However, the current problem with the PRO alliance is that mobile phone manufacturers with real patent strength have not expressed their willingness to join.

Like Samsung, why does it license patents with Yike alone?
Since it chooses to try to carry the Android system, can't it see the benefits of a stronger PRO alliance?

When Fang Zhuo talked about this matter at the dinner table, everyone could feel Samsung's subtle attitude of wanting Android to be good but not too good.

"Korean people sometimes give me a strange feeling. From Samsung to LG, from Samsung's Lee Jae-yong to LG China President Yu Nam-kyun, their posture is sometimes very high, and sometimes it is very low."

"It's a bit too much to say groveling, but the performance before and after is indeed quite different."

Fang Zhuo described how he felt dealing with Koreans.

That is, halfway through the dinner for Huawei, he received another call from LG during the dinner.

This time it was not Yu Nanjun, the president of LG China, or Wayne, the president of LG America, but Nam Yong, the head of LG Electronics.

Nam Yong took office at LG Electronics on January 1 last year. He used to be in charge of the South Korean operator LG Telecom, and he has a high position in the LG Group.

Now, after Yu Nanjun and Wayne's continuous contact and blush, he made a phone call in person, intending to fly from Seoul to Shencheng to negotiate face-to-face about LG and Yike's mobile phone patents.

"Eco is really busy recently, with constant guests, and the head of LG Electronics is also visiting Hang Lung." Fang Zhuo talked about the latest news with a smile after putting down the phone.

As the president of Huawei Terminal, apart from caring about his own business, Chen Zhaohui is also extremely sensitive to the entire market. He knows that the sales of 3G touchscreen phones released by LG are very good. Seeing Apple and Yike attacking LG one after another, it seems like a battle between dragons and tigers.

However, after toasting Mr. Fang for a glass of wine, he did not mention LG. Instead, he mentioned Nokia and kindly reminded: "Mr. Fang, LG is equipped with a Symbian system, which is the first Symbian S60 V5 mobile phone. Yike sued LG, Nokia may not stand by."

To some extent, LG's new machine is also Nokia's water test.

Now that the little brother is being sniped, the leading brother will take action no matter how he looks at it.

Fang Zhuo was aware of this matter and replied: "Nokia can also sue us when soldiers come to stop us, but Yike's attitude towards LG capacitive screens is also the attitude towards Nokia's capacitive screens in the future. We sue LG, and Nokia sues Yike. It sits down and talks about cross-licensing, and that's a good thing."

The silent Nokia is quite dangerous.

Suing LG is to establish patent authority and promote the Android and PRO alliances, but it would be great if it could be used by Nokia by the way.

Chen Zhaohui saw that Mr. Fang had a good idea, so he stopped talking about it. Instead, he asked about the development trend of Android and wanted to hear his judgment.

Fang Zhuo did not hesitate to show his confidence in Android.

On the one hand, Yike is fully betting on Android, which is naturally seen by everyone.

On the other hand, if Huawei, which is an OEM, is now making Android phones, it can only be an entry-level or a slightly higher product positioning.

Whether it is Huawei, Hanvon, or a grassroots start-up, Fang Zhuo welcomes anyone who can promote and promote the Android system in the domestic market.

In more than three months, Yike Mars will be officially launched in the domestic market. However, Mars alone cannot penetrate many consumers, and more manufacturers need to participate together, so that Yike can try to touch Penguin. traffic area.

Certainly not this year, I don't know if I can play against Penguins in 2009.

At that time, let Brother Wang sell his shares first.

Because Penguin and Ali merged, Fang Zhuo always felt that there was a bit of hostility there, and he hoped to prove that Penguin's hostility was correct.

On April 4, Huawei's inspection team left Shanghai.

Another day later, Zheng Baoyong solemnly handed over the analysis report that had been perfected several times to Mr. Ren, and talked impassionedly about the decision to sell Huawei terminals face-to-face.

As much as he has tried to overturn the established decision, another faction within the company has already made many reasons for selling.

I thought it would take a lot of time to communicate with Mr. Ren this time, but I didn't expect that Mr. Ren listened more and talked less, and his attitude was no longer firm.

"When you went to Shanghai, did you talk to Mr. Fang of Yike about our finding Bain and Silver Fox?" Ren Zhengfei listened to the report of the leader of the "Huawei Blue Army" and slowly asked a slightly off-topic question. .

"Yike has set up a PRO alliance, which is very ambitious. I am very interested in this. This time, I went to observe it with Mr. Chen." Zheng Baoyong changed his priority, "I created the Yike mobile phone with this person. If we meet with Mr. Fang, it is inevitable to talk about similar businesses, and his ice core is really good, he really dares to do it, and he really dares to spend money."

Zheng Baoyong's praise for Bing Xin came from the bottom of his heart, not just talking in front of President Fang.

Ren Zhengfei nodded slightly, and commented: "Fang is always a man of action."

Zheng Bao said with a smile: "I told him two days ago that he is a pragmatist. I don't know which evaluation Mr. Fang prefers."

Ren Zhengfei was taken aback: "He said on the phone that I am a pragmatic person."

Zheng Baoyong: "..."

Mr. Fang is quite anist...

Zheng Baoyong was thinking about chatting with Mr. Ren about his phone call with Mr. Fang, but Ren Zhengfei didn't intend to talk in detail, but just expressed his attitude towards this report.

"Huawei's terminal decision-making needs to continue to be demonstrated, and it must be combined with the development of the mobile phone market." Ren Zhengfei said, "This matter cannot be rushed. We also need to look at the advanced experience of domestic counterparts. In particular, Yike has also achieved success in overseas markets. A very good score."

Zheng Baoyong nodded steadily, knowing that things have turned for the better. If you want to look at the advanced experience of the peers, I am afraid that in August, the peers will be more advanced. At that time, it is not just the good results overseas.

Huawei terminals, Huawei mobile phones, as long as they sum up experience in the process of OEM for Vodafone, they will definitely gain market share.

Zheng Baoyong quickly finished his report.

He called Mr. Fang to thank him, and he was really curious about how Mr. Fang communicated with Mr. Ren.

"Oh, this one, it's very simple." Fang Zhuo didn't mean to whet his appetite, and said directly, "I called Mr. Ren, and when I came up, I told him that I wanted to sell Yike's shares, and asked him if he would buy it."

"Mr. Ren was taken aback and said that Yike had just started making mobile phones overseas, so it would not be a good choice to sell shares at this time."

"Then I told him that I was also surprised when I heard that Huawei was going to sell its shares in the terminal. How could there be such a decision that only cares about short-term interests and ignores long-term interests?"

"I said that those who make such decisions should be kicked out of Huawei."

"Perhaps my tone of voice was a bit harsh. Mr. Ren and I had a rather intense exchange of views on some opinions."

"In the end, I satirized him as a pragmatist who only cares about the present. He said that I was a doer who caused trouble."

"That's pretty much it, we're all pretty much back to calm by the end of the call."

Fang Zhuo described the whole process in one breath.

Zheng Baoyong was dumbfounded, this was completely different from what he had imagined, and Mr. Ren didn't mention the emotional color of that evaluation!
The pragmatist who only cares about the eyes, the doer who makes trouble!
Official history xxx, unofficial history xxx!

Fang Zhuo saw that the other person didn't speak for a long time, and asked, "What's the matter? It's counterproductive? I think the effect should be pretty good."

Most likely, it probably had a positive effect.

Thinking this way, Zheng Baoyong quickly affirmed Mr. Fang's help.

"It's okay, if you give someone a rose, there will be a lingering fragrance in your hand." Fang Zhuo was very happy to help, and reminded, "Huawei's OEM should try a higher market positioning."

Zheng Bao knows the elegant meaning by listening to the string song: "We will analyze the market and talk to Qualcomm about the procurement of chips."

This is the lingering fragrance that Mr. Fang wants.

Fang Zhuo likes dealing with such people who can bring about a win-win situation.

On the contrary, he believed that there was no win-win space between him and LG, and he almost wanted to find a reason not to miss Nam Yong, the head of LG Electronics who flew from Seoul to visit Yike.

However, Fang Zhuo still has some ways of hospitality, and feels that the other party is coming from across the country, and it would be too impertinent not to refuse in person.

On April 4, the head of LG Electronics arrived at Shanghai Hang Lung 27.

These days, in addition to business visits to the company, leaders from the city and district also come here from time to time, which once made the nerves of the employees on the 23rd floor numb.

Fang Zhuo also didn't like to deal with such frequent meetings, but they all had their own reasons, so he had to be patient.

"Mr. Fang, LG attaches great importance to the Chinese market, and has always had good cooperation with Chinese companies here in the past. This time, it has a dispute with Yike. I think there must be a misunderstanding. LG did not carry out effective and timely cooperation with Yike. Communication." Nam Yong, as the head of LG Electronics, has a very low profile, "So, I came here this time to resolve disputes and let everyone look forward."

Not only did he fly in from Seoul himself, but he also apologized.

"The patent dispute between Yike and LG, I believe it can be resolved legally." Fang Zhuo did not budge, "I have noticed Yike America's report on this work, I believe everyone can get a satisfactory result result."

"Eco is a company that has just entered the mobile phone industry and is about to launch a new mobile phone." Nan Yong persuaded, "Mr. Fang, LG and Echo have a lot of room for cooperation. We can completely focus on the mobile phone itself. , I heard that there is also cooperation between Samsung and Yike, and LG can also carry out patent licensing with Yike.”

He is quite sincere and wants to resolve this dispute that is not conducive to LG's new phone.

Fang Zhuo just shook his head and insisted on his words: "I respect the opinions given by Yike America. I don't think there is any room for discussion on this matter. Just like LG's patent litigation with Apple, let it go through the procedure quietly."

"LG also has deep patents, Mr. Fang, I hope that the matter can be resolved within the framework of our two parties, not under the multi-party procedures such as South Korea and the United States." Nam Yong took out the prepared documents, "Yi Ke The preparation of mobile phone patents is not easy, LG and I came here with sincerity, and Yike’s Mars also has very good sales in South Korea.”

The document is LG's analysis of Yike's suspected infringement of its own mobile phone patents.

This is the attitude of countersuing Yike at home in South Korea and the United States.

Nam Yong hoped that Mr. Fang and Yi Ke could sit down and talk and not fight each other.

Fang Zhuo couldn't bear to see Nan Yong's sincerity, but such a faint threat just followed his wishes.

"Since LG Electronics is ready, let's make it clear in legal procedures."

Nan Yong frowned, not quite understanding why this Huaxia person did not accept the solution so much, and he didn't even intend to talk about it.

He said this again and again, but the words on the other side became less and less, and his attitude remained the same.

Nam attaches great importance to LG's attempt to install the Symbian system, and the early sales have proved that this direction is very promising. Now he has encountered patent lawsuits from Apple and Yike, and he wants to solve the soft persimmons first.

Judging from LG Electronics headquarters' understanding of Huaxia, there is room for negotiation this time.

Nan Yong made the last attempt, seeing that Mr. Fang still didn't change his mind, his attitude changed: "Mr. Fang, Huaxia speaks well, and cooperation is beneficial to both. LG is not willing to be a patent troll, but it is not afraid of patent trolls. "

He walked away, already decided to give more responses from home court, patent, law, and public opinion.

There is an old story that is really worth talking about in front of the media.

Don't think that others don't know who is behind BOE's backstabbing. LG is also a victim of LCD Alliance being backstabbed.

Nan Yong was furious. Apart from such a plan, the first thing he did was to call Nokia. This Yike was not slapping LG in the face, he was simply slapping Symbian's ass.

Nokia, you don't care!
