Technology company, I will become the light of China!

Chapter 442: The arrow shot in 2014 hits the forehead in 2016

"welcome."

"Shuashuashua——"

The moment Chen Xing stood up, Zhou Zhaoji, Yao Nana, Zhao Siqiu, and Kunpeng Company CEO Ren Guofei in the conference room all stood up and looked towards the door.

The reason why Chen Xing arranged so many people was not only to ensure his own safety, but also to use the deterrent technique of negotiating the number of people.

Anyone who has participated in a large-scale negotiation meeting between two parties knows that some people may not speak at all during the entire meeting and are purely decorations. However, decorations can also play a big role.

This is because a large number of people can put pressure on the other party visually and instinctively.

For example, as a teacher, you will feel very pressured when you first step onto the podium. When you look at the faces and eyes of the students below the stage, even if you know that they have no ill intentions, you will instinctively feel a lot of pressure.

This is because many survival instincts have been engraved into human DNA after 200 million years of tribal life.

For example, giant phobia, deep-sea phobia, acrophobia, etc. These are the lessons learned by countless primitive humans who died.

It is precisely because of these instincts that human beings were able to reproduce and thrive in primitive times.

"I've heard of Mr. Chen's great reputation for a long time. I'm Brian Savant, the board representative of Gaotong Company. You can call me Savant." Savant took the initiative to extend his hand with a smile on his lips.

"Nice to meet you, nice to meet you. Please come in."

Chen Xing responded politely.

"Thank you very much." Savant walked straight in without any hesitation. Ren Guofei also greeted him at this time: "Welcome to Longguo Shencheng, I am Ren Guofei, the chairman of Kunpeng Company."

"So you are Mr. Ren. Seeing is believing, seeing is believing!" While speaking, Savant made a circle and went to the other side to shake hands with Ren Guofei.

Although Ren Guofei was in the first seat on the left and Savant was in the first seat on the right, the two only needed to cross the main seat to shake hands, but if you really crossed the main seat to shake hands, it means you don't take the person in the main seat seriously.

No matter what the occasion, shaking hands with other people or shaking hands without going around the host are taboos.

Don’t think that only the Dragon Country has such social customs. The West also has them, and they are even more complicated and cumbersome.

Savant went around in a big circle, successfully shook hands with Ren Guofei, and then shook hands with several other people, keeping his posture very humble. This also made Chen Xing, Ren Guofei, and other people in the meeting room aware of Gaotong Company's attitude.

"I am the barrier-free translator for Representative Savant. Mr. Rodalega and Mr. Chen can speak Chinese directly, and I can convey it in real time."

"Welcome, welcome. Please take a seat."

"Mumino, the accompanying secretary."

"Well, take a seat."

While Chen Xing nodded in response, he also got a general understanding of the members of Gaotong Company's negotiation team. The same was true for Ren Guofei and others.

"Mr. Chen... Mr. Chen, how are you?"

When the last person entered the conference room and came in front of Chen Xing, both Chen Xing and Ren Guofei showed a hint of surprise.

He was none other than Morenkof, the instigator of the infringement.

"Morenkoff is not dead. It seems that Jewish capital wants to squeeze out every last drop of his value." Chen Xing thought about it and said in a welcoming tone, "How are you? Have a seat."

"Ah."

Morenkov nodded and walked to the right seat of the conference room.

"Bang-"

The door of the conference room was closed by the secretary.

After both parties arrived, Chen Xing glanced at everyone and nodded, "Everyone, take a seat."

"Shuashuashua——"

Both parties in the negotiation chose to sit down.

On the left side of the conference room are Zhou Zhaoji, Zhang Heting, Zhao Siqiu, Ren Guofei, and Yao Nana.

On the right are Savante, Rodalega, Mumino and Morenkof.

After both parties sat down, Chen Xing, who was sitting in the main seat, looked at Savant and said, "Since everyone is here, let's get straight to the point."

"Regarding your company's infringement of our "DSP Multi-core Architecture" of Longxing Group, what is your solution?"

The words fell.

All eyes were on Sawant.

Although Savant is fat, weighing about 200 to 300 pounds, he is not stupid. He understands that negotiation requires using stillness to overcome movement and striking back after being attacked.

"We want to hear your ideas. If it's appropriate, we can sign an agreement." Savant threw the question back to Chen Xing.

As if he had expected the other party to do this, Chen Xing glanced at Yao Nana, signaled with his eyes, and then looked at Savant and said, "Okay, let's come up with a specific implementation plan first."

Yao Nana opened the file on the desktop and read out the contents calmly and confidently in fluent English.

“This proposal has three demands.”

"1. Qualcomm must recall all infringing chips on the market, specifically the Snapdragon X16, Snapdragon X17 and Snapdragon X18 models, and destroy them in a centralized manner."

"2. Gaotong needs to provide all orders for the commissioned production of baseband chips, and pay ten times the compensation to the infringed party, Longxing Group, based on the number of chips produced in the order, as patent royalties for illegal infringement."

"3. Gaotong must publish an apology in mainstream media such as MI15, Reuters, and AFP. It must also issue an official apology announcement on public media platforms such as TikTok and Twitter, and tag our group account. The number of days for the announcement must not be less than days."

Listening to Yao Nana's story, Savant and even Morenkov frowned. This was simply a humiliating treaty.

Recalling the chips and destroying them in a centralized manner, and paying ten times the compensation based on the number of orders would be fine, but apologizing in the world's mainstream media and on a public platform is an attempt to make Gaotong a laughing stock around the world. This is absolutely murderous!
Sometimes death is not scary, what is scarier than death is social death.

Once, a young man was hit while riding an electric scooter and flew several meters away. The last thing he did before fainting was to delete his browser history. You can imagine how important reputation is to some people.

"We agree to recall the illegal chips and provide compensation, but regarding publishing an apology letter, do you think we can discuss it again, Mr. Chen?" Savant's eyes flashed with embarrassment.

If a technology company admits to infringement and publicly admits it in the world's mainstream media, it will be courting death.

The reason why they came to Longguo to negotiate with Chen Xing was to pay compensation and avoid other things if possible.

"If you do something wrong, you have to write a self-criticism. This is something even elementary school students in our Long Country know." Chen Xing responded calmly.

The meaning of his words was very clear, that is, there was no room for negotiation, the apology had to be made, and the matter could not be left unattended with a simple payment.

What would happen if every company secretly infringed upon rights and just paid money when they were discovered?

Although money can allow one to do whatever he wants, Longxing Group is not interested in those two coin-operated companies. Its apology is intended to tell other companies that Longxing Group is capable of detecting infringements and hopes to deter scoundrels.

"cough…"

Sawant coughs.

Morenkov, who was sitting in the second seat on the right and had been silent for a long time, trembled slightly, looked at Chen Xing and said:

"The infringing DSP multi-core architecture was my idea, and no one else in Qualcomm knew about it. I am willing to accept any punishment, just to minimize the impact of this incident."

"Was it your idea alone?"

Chen Xing's mouth corners slightly raised.

Morenkov is an old acquaintance of his. When the Qingzhou chip came out, it was he who publicly fought against counterfeiting and even took out professional equipment to embarrass Chen Xing.

It was he who forced Longxing Group into a desperate situation, and it was also he who joined forces with other chip manufacturers and parts suppliers to cut off supplies to Longxing Group.

If it weren't for Morenkov, Longxing Group wouldn't have developed so fast. It was precisely because of this poisonous snake chasing behind that Chen Xing thought about integrating domestic resources to fight against sanctions from the West.

Now that he is in Chen Xing's hands, it is naturally impossible for him to let go easily.

"Yes, it was my idea alone."

Just as Morenkov was about to take the blame and remove Gaotong from the picture, Chen Xing immediately responded, "That's perfect. We have one more demand, and that's you!"

Chen Xing stared at Morenkov and continued, "He must also publicly apologize in the world's mainstream media and on public media platforms, and the time must not be less than 15 days."

Mollenkopf: "..."

That’s not right!
There's something wrong with the script!
According to the normal plot, everyone is responsible for their own actions. If there is any problem, can't we just blame Morenkov?
What does it mean now?
Only add and no subtract?

However, what they don't know is that Chen Xing doesn't buy into heroism. Since you, Morenkov, have come out to admit it, he can only reluctantly add another request.

“䱱…”

Morenkov subconsciously wanted to scold Chen Xing.

As a Western elite and supporter of white supremacy, he looks down on the Asian yellow race from the bottom of his heart.

The so-called Western gentlemen are nothing more than a cultural invasion instilled by Western media, with the purpose of maintaining white supremacy.

The effect of this cultural invasion is also very obvious. A large number of Chinese people have a natural gentleman filter for foreigners, and women are even more eager to throw themselves at them, and are finally described as "easy girls."

Chen Xing looked at Morenkov's angry and speechless expression, and asked calmly, "What's wrong with me?"

"..."

Mollenkopf was silent again.

He is now under someone's roof and has to bow his head.

Even though he was extremely angry, he had to obtain Chen Xing's forgiveness if he wanted to be free.

Thinking back to the torture he had suffered some time ago, he no longer wanted to experience it. He stood up, walked to Chen Xing's side, knelt on both knees, lowered his proud head and said, "I did this alone. I am willing to take full responsibility. I am very sorry."

Faced with Morenkov's kneeling apology, Chen Xing felt no wavering at all.

Judging from Morenkov’s performance just now, he didn’t know that he was wrong, but he was in great trouble and had to admit his mistake to Chen Xing.

This is like when criminals are caught and brought to court for trial and they cry bitterly. It is not because they know they are wrong, but because they are afraid of criminal punishment.

Chen Xing did not look directly at Morenkov, but glanced at Savant, Rodalega and Mumino. The three of them had very calm eyes and were not surprised by Morenkov's kneeling apology. It was obvious that he did it on purpose.

"All right."

Chen Xing shook his head and insisted, "We are all businessmen, so we shouldn't try to gain sympathy."

For businessmen, profit comes first.

How much is kneeling worth?

Seeing that Chen Xing didn't buy it, Morenkov was really scared, and his experience on an unknown island some time ago flashed through his mind.

Like many imprisoned women, he became a tool for entertaining guests.

Don't think that men are safe when they go out. In today's world, some people are becoming more and more twisted.

Of course.

This has to do with brain thresholds.

What is a threshold?
A classic example is the mountain child in the movie Metamorphosis. Due to insufficient cognitive ability, the child born in the mountain does not feel how unfortunate he is before he broadens his horizons.

But when he comes to the big city where every inch of land is valuable, attends a prestigious school, and eats at a welcoming banquet that costs thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars, his inner threshold will instantly be raised.

Having eaten Australian lobster, braised pork, and all kinds of delicacies and snacks, could he still eat the stale leftovers from the mountains?

The answer is very realistic.

They can't adapt.

Because the threshold is forcibly raised, it is like going from hell to heaven, and then falling from heaven to hell. No one can adapt.

This is also why "Super Boy" has a very bad reputation, because it is a show that sacrifices the lives of children in the mountains to make children in the city wake up.

It is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality because of the threshold of human nature.

When some rich people get tired of playing with women and their thresholds cannot be satisfied, they will start to develop various ways of playing. After raising the threshold again and again, they will move towards the area of ​​perversion.

Judging from the fear that flashed in Morenkov's eyes, he was obviously badly hurt and was afraid to go back to the island.

"Mr. Chen...Mr. Chen, this was really my fault. I would be willing to kill me as long as this matter can be put to rest."

"please."

"I kowtow to you."

Morenkov kept begging.

Ren Guofei, Zhou Zhaoji, Zhang Heting and others looked at each other. After exchanging glances, the former said:

"I think we are all in business, and we can discuss anything from a business perspective. There is no need to do this, it's inappropriate."

As he spoke, he looked towards Sawant.

Faced with Morenkov's kowtow and begging for mercy, the other three people from Gaotong Company remained indifferent. It was obvious that it was their idea.

"That's right. Business matters must be resolved through negotiation."

"Morenkov, please get up."

Zhou Zhaoji and Zhang Heting echoed this.

Yao Nana and Zhao Siqiu looked at Chen Xing without saying anything. They realized that Gaotong Company wanted to morally blackmail Chen Xing and seek more room for negotiation.

Can it be useful?

For others, it may be a soft heart.

After all, a president worth hundreds of millions knelt down and kowtowed, willing to die to apologize.

But Chen Xingke knew very well that it was Morenkov who had forced the Longxing Group into a desperate situation and wanted to kill them all. Forgiveness was impossible.

"Is this how your Gaotong company handles infringements?" Chen Xing's calm tone carried a hint of threat, as if this meeting could collapse at any time.

Savant's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly said, "Of course not, Mr. Chen, you misunderstood. Morenkoff is just expressing his sincerest apologies to Longxing Group for what he did."

"Cough cough..."

He coughed twice.

Morenkov, who was still kowtowing, stopped immediately. When he stood up, one could clearly see that his forehead was red, and it was obvious that he was really kowtowing.

Although he tried his best to hide it, Chen Xing could still feel his hatred.

For this kind of white supremacist elite, he will not look for his own problems, but will blame Chen Xing for discovering his infringement, leading to his end.

"Sit down, if you want to talk, let's talk properly, don't make unnecessary things."

Chen Xing warned again.

"That's right, that's right." Savant smiled and glanced at Morenkov, which made the latter shudder and return to his seat in shame.

After the episode, Chen Xing brought the negotiation topic back on track: "Mr. Savant, you heard it too. Now we have four demands: recall of chips, unified destruction, and compensation and apology."

"can."

Savant suddenly agreed readily, but then he changed the subject and said, "But can the fifteen days for publishing the apology be shortened to three days?"

"Then you still lack sincerity." Chen Xing shook his head.

Is it money he wants?

Do not!
What we want is a public apology from Gaotong.

Once Gaotong Company publicly apologizes, Chen Xing can use this as an excuse to increase the volatility of rice stocks.

"No, no, no, we are very sincere, but it takes too long to publish the article. We need further negotiation." Savant expressed his attitude, and the two sides gradually reached a stalemate.

At this time, Ren Guofei spoke again: "Peace is the most precious thing, peace is the most precious thing. Since Gaotong Company is asking for a shorter time to publish an apology, why don't you propose other conditions, Mr. Chen, as compensation."

Chen Xing's originally tense and serious face relaxed immediately after hearing this. He looked at Ren Guofei and said, "Then according to Mr. Ren, what conditions should I propose as compensation for shortening the apology time?"

"That depends on Mr. Savant's sincerity." Ren Guofei looked at Savant opposite him and winked.

The two people's concerted efforts have made Savant and Morenkov smell something unusual. These people must have other intentions.

But is there any way they can refuse?
No way.

The patent crisis is imminent.

If this patent incident is not handled properly, it is likely to lead to large-scale mutual infringement between Chinese and American companies.

To put it bluntly, if this matter is not handled properly, pirated versions of the Android system may appear the next day, and the same goes for the Windows system, chip technology, and automobile production technology. The patents will become completely worthless.

You should know that Silicon Valley technology companies have applied for a large number of patents, publishing technical principles in exchange for patent protection time.

Chen Xing had anticipated this, as the Netherworld press conference had clearly stated that it would not apply for a patent for "Chip Stacking Technology."

In addition to the chip stacking technology, there are also the manufacturing principles of the lithography factory and the various technologies of the stacked CMOS sensors, all of which aim to prevent both parties from breaking the jar.

Of course.

Not applying for a patent requires extremely high technical barriers and great courage.

Because if the other party masters the technology, discloses the technical principles and applies for the patent, it will directly cut off Longxing Group's retreat.

There are naturally advantages to every disadvantage. Since the technical principles are not disclosed, the other party will not be able to conduct research and development based on the disclosed information, let alone infringe on our rights privately.

If Longxing Group applies for patents for all its technologies, Silicon Valley companies may really give up because they are really coveting "China Chip", "Photolithography Factory Manufacturing Principles" and "All-Solid-State Lithium Battery".

"You state the conditions. As long as Gaotong Company has them, we will try our best to meet them." Savant had no choice but to give in again.

This negotiation is not on behalf of Qualcomm, but on behalf of Silicon Valley technology companies.

If the talks really fail, then Longxing Group will have a legitimate reason to infringe on copyright. Even if it is sued for infringement, the United States will not be able to do anything about it, after all, they were the ones who opened the door to piracy.

Seeing the other party give in again, Chen Xing and Ren Guofei looked at each other, and the former cleared his throat and said, "Since you have infringed our patented technology, why not use the patented technology to repay us."

"What do you mean?"

Sawant suddenly realized it.

He suddenly found himself in a game set up by Chen Xing and Ren Guofei, with one playing the good cop and the other the bad cop, with the goal of luring them into using technology to supplement.

"It's very simple." Chen Xing said what he was thinking: "All the 4G communication network technologies you own are unconditionally authorized to Longxing Group for use."

"4G?"

“What do you want 4G technology for?”

Savant was puzzled.

"If Mr. Chen wants it, he must have his reasons. This involves business secrets, right, Mr. Chen?" Ren Guofei continued to assist.

"It does involve commercial secrets, but it doesn't hurt for me to tell you. I just want to save the usage fee of 4G network patent technology." Chen Xing responded calmly.

"Is that really all there is to it?"

Savant still didn't quite believe it.

Morenkov was hesitant to speak. Based on his understanding of Chen Xing, this man was definitely not just trying to save on patent royalties. He might have other intentions. However, he did not open his mouth to remind him for fear of messing up the negotiations.

After all, if he angered Chen Xing and caused the talks to fail, his anus would be destroyed by those visitors on the island, and that would be his nightmare.

"if not?"

Chen Xing asked back, "My Longxing Group has the 5G network's "Millimeter Wave Technology". Don't you think the 4G network is still worth researching?"

"this…"

Sawant was speechless for a moment.

After listening to Chen Xing's explanation, it seems to make sense. Others have already developed 5G networks, so the 4G network is indeed not worth researching.

However, neither Savant nor Morenkof would have thought that Longxing Group's 5G high-speed network was not a real 5G high-speed network. It was just a pseudo-4G network developed by using the 5G network technology mastered by Doichmann and "millimeter wave technology".

The reason why Chen Xing agreed to negotiate with Gaotong Company was for their 4G network technology patent, so as to develop a true 5G high-speed network and achieve the highest network speed.

At this time, Chen Xing was fearless because his goal could be achieved regardless of whether Savant agreed or not.

If they disagree and the talks fail, Longxing Group will retaliate in kind and directly infringe on their rights.

Similarly, Longxing Group can legitimately use Gaotong’s 4G network patented technology to carry out in-depth optimization of the 5G network.

This means that Chen Xing had already won before the negotiation even started.

Authorizing Longxing Group to use all 4G network patents was beyond Savant's authority. He said in a troubled tone, "This condition is beyond my authority. I need to ask for instructions from above."

"Please."

Chen Xing nodded in agreement.

As soon as he finished speaking, Savant quickly stood up and walked towards the door of the conference room.

Morenkov witnessed all this with a very complicated look in his eyes. He felt familiar with it, but gradually he realized it belatedly.

Asking other companies to share patents...

Isn't this what he did in the first place?

The arrow he shot in 2014 actually traveled two years and hit him right between the eyebrows in 2016.

It was at this time that a sentence from "The Book of Documents: Taijia" flashed through his mind: He who brings trouble upon himself will suffer the consequences!
