Chapter 724 Guo, You Are Really a Devil

After having breakfast together, Aserina went out. There are still activities today, which must be attended. Guo Yongren is waiting for Burton's arrival at home. White has arranged the kitchen to start preparations, and everything is proceeding in an orderly manner.

After ten o'clock, Burton came over, and Guo Yongren hugged him. The two were considered old friends. They went to the garden to taste the red wine together. Romanee-Conti had been frozen and was waiting to be opened.

After two glasses, I handed Burton a glass, and the two sat in the garden, tasting the red wine slowly and talking, "Guo, what do you think about the communication market?" Burton started talking about the business, which is also his task.

"Burton, my plan for the communication market is the same as we discussed last time. I don't plan to intervene in the European communication market this year. However, next year, I will launch a patent storm and enter Europe with great momentum." Guo Yongren said directly, no Concealing a little bit, Burton smiled bitterly, really afraid of something.

"Guo, you have to consider the existence of the anti-monopoly law." Burton said seriously, and Guo Yongren smiled.

"Burton, we are old friends, there is nothing we can't talk about, just talk about it," Guo Yongren said directly, shaking the wine glass in his hand, Burton shook his head, sometimes too familiar is not a good thing.

"Guo, I don't know about other countries, but in the UK, after this year's shopping, the winner is about to be decided. It should be three large communication companies that win, but they all need the patent authorization of your umbrella. They are all Very capable, you understand what I mean," Burton said directly, and Guo Yongren smiled.

"These three companies, are there any companies that support your Labor Party?" Guo Yongren asked, and Burton nodded.

"One family and the other two support each other, so now I need to have a good talk with you." Burton said directly, and Guo Yongren nodded, understanding Burton's meaning.

"Burton, I won't hide it from you, I will grant at most two patent authorizations per country, no more than that is impossible," Guo Yongren said directly, and Burton nodded, motioning Guo Yongren to continue.

"The one that supports your Labor Party is fine. I will authorize it. Then the remaining two have only one quota. The other one can be fully acquired by me under the umbrella. We will see the outcome in the market then." Guo Yongren said directly, no Conceal your intentions.

Burton frowned and thought while shaking his wine glass. This matter is obviously beneficial to the Labor Party. With himself and others around, the umbrella must support the Labor Party. This cannot be denied, but now the opposite is in power.

"Are you so sure you can beat them in the market?" Burton looked at Guo Yongren and said, Guo Yongren laughed hahaha.

"Burton, what is the communication industry relying on? Technology, they are only authorized by the first generation. To tell you the truth, I have already applied for a patent umbrella for the second generation of products. What do they use to fight against me? , to fight for funds, or to fight for technology," Guo Yongren said, looking at Burton.

Burton smiled wryly. Guo Yongren is really calculating. The first generation on your side has just started to enter the market, and you have already obtained the patents on the second generation. No matter how you fight this battle, you will lose. of.

"Burton, I also contacted the French side, and it's the same way. There is no problem with the authorization of two companies at most, and there is no problem with France, and Germany is also not a problem. At that time, we will establish an analog communication standard to link the whole of Europe. If you don’t join, you will be boycotted, you know what I mean.” Guo Yongren said directly, and Guo Yongren actually communicated with Chirac about this matter.

Burton frowned. The European unified standard will definitely be based on the umbrella standard. It will be even more difficult for other communication companies to stand up. How do you play with this matter? There is no way. Who let the umbrella control the core technology? A hurdle that cannot be circumvented.

"Motorola in the United States has had enough of the umbrella. It has started trial operations in Chicago and New York. Three months later, it will enter the United States. By then, the United States, Europe, Southeast Asia, and the world will be a unified Standard" Guo Yongren did not conceal his strategy, which is easy to infer.

"Your ambition is really big, you think those governments will agree to your plan." Burton looked at Guo Yongren and said

"I hold an American passport. Do you think the United States will object?" Guo Yongren asked, and Burton shook his head. It is difficult for the United States to object.

"I have already communicated with France and Germany. Do you think that the things agreed by both of them in Europe will not pass? Are other countries willing to be shielded from the world, let alone Southeast Asia? My umbrella Tianyi has been rolled out , do you think these are problems?" Guo Yongren looked at Burton and said seriously.

Burton had a bitter look on his face. There was no other way. The United Kingdom also had to consider the opinions of France and Germany. Once the two parties reached an agreement, if the United Kingdom did not agree, then it would not be able to connect with the European economy. unbearable.

The benefits of wireless phones are basically known now. The United States has come to the back because of the intervention of the umbrella. Otherwise, it would have been popularized a long time ago. It can be said that many things in the current world have been changed by the umbrella. Guo Yongren has already paid attention to it. Yes, changing too much will affect history.

"Okay, I will seriously discuss this matter with the higher-ups," that's all Burton could say.

"Burton, we are old friends. You should understand what is yours and what is not yours." Guo Yongren said directly. Burton was taken aback and motioned Guo Yongren to continue.

"Burton, there are still two years left in your mayor's term. Now your approval rating is very good. Don't you want to take a step forward? Or in your second term, I have my umbrella to invest in London. , At that time, London can completely create an economic myth. If you have this as capital, you don’t need to think about it in the Labor Party,” Guo Yongren said seriously.

Burton began to think about it. Burton's age is here. It is impossible without ambition, but his strength is not enough. However, with the support of the umbrella, his strength is not enough now. Two years later, his strength can be This is not ordinary, this is a big opportunity.

"Guo, you are really a devil." Burton looked at Guo Yongren with a wry smile and said, if he wants to take a step forward, he cannot do without the support of the umbrella. In this way, he must protect the interests of the umbrella.

"We are all the same. Only the devil can live comfortably in this world, isn't it?" Guo Yongren looked at Burton and said with a smile. Burton could only smile bitterly, knowing that it was a temptation, but he couldn't refuse.

"Burton, this is a win-win situation for us. It's been a long time. Has my umbrella ever asked you to make things difficult for you? As for your other supporters, I believe you have a balance in your heart." Guo Yongren looked at Burton directly Said.

Burton nodded and understood that what Guo Yongren said was true. With so many supporters, Umbrella can be said to be the only company that did not embarrass him. This is very rare, and Umbrella also supports him the most. .

"I need some funds to operate this matter." Burton thought for a while and said, he must first settle the affairs within the party, which requires funds, otherwise, it is really difficult to handle.

"You can just go to Leo directly. This is not a problem. However, if the price is too high, I will give up the British market. Without my patent authorization, I will see how these companies and the ruling party will do. At that time, Blatantly violating the patent law, the reputation of the UK is none of my business," Guo Yongren said directly.

Burton nodded, understanding Guo Yongren's meaning. Guo Yongren's umbrella is rich, but Guo Yongren is not willing to throw it around. What's more, in this matter, the umbrella has the upper hand. If you want to be greedy, you can, but you Can't be greedy to the head of my umbrella.

"What are you going to do?" Guo Yongren asked

"Let's solve the internal affairs of the Labor Party first. Although I am favored by many people now, I still lack strong supporters in the party." Burton has a thorough view of himself. Just can't take it off.

Guo Yongren nodded, "By the way, Guo, I hope you can move a pharmaceutical factory in Liverpool to Leeds. Leeds is our camp, which is a great support for us." Burton looked at Guo Yongren seriously Said, Guo Yongren frowned, and began to think in his mind.

"Guo, the pharmaceutical company you bought was not valued at all in Liverpool, and there were no preferential measures at all. It will be different immediately when they arrive in Leeds. They will immediately give you a ten-year preferential policy, which can be signed. , the one from Leeds is a good friend of mine and will provide me with great support," Burton said directly, and Guo Yongren nodded.

"I will arrange for the Medical Bio Group to adjust this matter. They will increase their recruitment in Leeds." Guo Yongren said with a smile, and Burton also laughed. The employment rate is something that every ruler needs to consider. Of course, the dictatorship Don't think about it at all.

The two discussed a lot of things in the garden, many things were out of Benjamin's hands, and this was the fundamental reason why Burton wanted to meet Guo Yongren directly, because Guo Yongren could directly make decisions, which Burton knew very well .

Burton will connect later and let Umbrella cooperate with the University of London to become a research institute, mainly for biomedical research. The University of London is responsible for providing personnel, and the research results belong to Umbrella. Every time a result is achieved, the umbrella must provide a share of funds. In addition to the school getting a part, the professor in charge of the research and his team must also have it.
