Chapter 1331 Motorola, are you kidding me?

"Are you sure you want to listen to my conditions?" Lin Zheng looked at Edward with a smile. Jander: "It's certainly okay to ask me to say, but after I speak, Motorola must do it according to my requirements."

Edward Jand, who finally calmed down, felt anger rushed to his forehead: Damn! Are you really here to negotiate? Are you sure you were not here to smash the situation? But Edward Jand was Edward Jand after all, he looked at Lin Zheng with a disappointed look and said with a tangled look: "Lin, I think we are already friends."

"Yes, we are indeed friends," Lin Zheng nodded. Although he had not dealt with Edward Jand in the past many times, strictly speaking, he was indeed "a friend who was not very familiar", but friends in this kind of relationship were really just friends. If you want to use this kind of friendship that nods to trap yourself, either Edward Jand is too simple or he overestimates the importance of Chinese people to friends: "But you Americans have a saying that "Business is business, friendship is friendship." We Chinese also have a saying that "not in their position, do not do their politics." If you come to chat with me today in a private identity, of course I welcome it, but..."

Speaking of this, Lin Zheng shrugged: "It seems that it is not."

Edward Jander didn't expect Lin Zheng to say so directly, and he was speechless for a moment. In the past, when Chinese people talked about friendship with Motorola, Motorola talked about business with others. Now retribution has come. Motorola wants to talk about friendship with others, and it is the turn of others to talk about business with Motorola.

"Okay," Lin Zheng took the initiative, and Edward Zhande had no good idea, and said depressedly: "So, what do you want?"

"I want Motorola's patent..."

"This is impossible," Edward Jander interrupted Lin Zheng angrily: "Lin, you should understand that patents are Motorola's most valuable asset. Don't talk about me, even if it's any chairman, he wouldn't dare to talk to you about this... Lin. If you really want to talk, please show some sincerity."

Lin Zheng pursed his lips.

Of course he knew Edward Jander was right. Patents are indeed Motorola's most valuable assets. Motorola now has about 16,500 patents. There are about 7,000 other patents under review. The most valuable part is patents related to cellular radio technologies such as 4g high-speed data transmission. 4g is Motorola's hope. Unless Motorola's senior management collectively flees, they will not be able to give this part of the patent to Lianchuang Technology.

But... Lin Zhengben didn't expect Edward Zhande to agree to this condition. He said lightly: "I'm talking about semiconductor patents."

"Semiconductor?" Edward Jander was stunned for a moment. Then he looked at Lin Zheng with a funny face: "This is impossible. The US government cannot approve it."

"I know," Lin Zheng looked calm: "So we need some workarounds."

After understanding Lin Zheng's meaning, Edward Jander's face changed suddenly: What is a means of adaptation? It is clearly this bastard who wants to take away Motorola's precious assets without spending a penny! Taking a deep breath, Edward Jander said: "Lin, I think I came with sincerity, but your actions disappointed me. I didn't see where your sincerity is."

"Of course we also came with sincerity. I can come because I am sincere. Please remember that war was initiated by Motorola. Motorola can choose when to start the war, but when to end the war, and what the result of the war is not Motorola can decide." Lin Zheng looked at Edward. Jander without giving in, his tone was faint, but this faint tone kept reminding Edward. Jander a fact that made him extremely painful: Motorola provoked the war, but sadly, Motorola was not the winner of this war.

"So you are planning to dismember Motorola? Lin, I need to remind you that although Motorola is at a disadvantage now, we are not the target of being slaughtered, nor are we not the power to fight back. If you must start a war, Motorola..."

"Then you fight back." Before Edward and Zhande finished speaking, Lin Zheng said indifferently.

This was too shameful, as if he was so heartbroken that Edward Jand almost couldn't breathe.

Yes, counterattack, if you have the ability, you can counterattack, but... Motorola has not fought back, and even once joined forces with one of China's largest channel dealers: Gome Electrical Appliances, and wanted to cut off Lisheng's mobile phone directly from the channel, but what's the result? For Motorola, if it could counterattack, it would have been a long time since it was still waiting for today? If Motorola could counterattack, would there be this meeting today?

Resisting the urge to leave with a sleeve, Edward Zhan De said: "We are willing to admit our previous mistakes. We can lobby Congress to lift the ban on Chinese mobile phones and personal computer products. I think this should satisfy you, right?"

Convincing Congress to lift the ban on Chinese mobile phones and personal computers? Lang Xuan turned her head slightly toward Lin Zheng: He should agree to such a good condition, right?

But Lin Zheng's actions surprised Lang Xuan. He slowly shook his head: "To me, this is actually not important."

"It's not important?" Edward Jander opened his mouth and looked at Lin Zheng dumbly, beginning to wonder if there was something wrong with his ears: he actually said that this was not important?

"It really doesn't matter," facing Edward Jander's surprised gaze, Lin Zheng explained to him: "The US market is actually an extremely xenophobic market. What if the ban is lifted? Will personal computer brands such as Kangbo, Dell, and HP use their various resources to desperately block Chinese companies? Will the US government use its public power to make stumblings on Chinese companies? Will the media that are concerned with the interests of American companies desperately advocate American companies..."

When Edward Zhande heard Lin Zheng say that the US market is so bad, he couldn't help it and interrupted Lin Zheng and said, "So, are you planning to give up the United States, the world's largest personal computer and mobile phone market?"

"To be corrected, it is the second largest market for personal computers and mobile phones in the world, and China is the largest market for personal computers and mobile phones," Lin Zheng said with no regard for Edward. Zhan De said with shame: "Of course we want it, but we will not beg the US government to do this. On the contrary, our goal is to make the US government ask us."

"..." Edward Zhande was shocked by Lin Zheng's words, and could not believe that this was said from Lin Zheng, causing the US government to beg them? Is this guy crazy?!

"Why? Don't believe it?" Looking at Edward. Zhande's eyes that seemed to be looking at a madman, Lin Zheng smiled casually, but his words were as sharp as a knife: "Mr. Zhande, are there no factors from the US government when you come to me this time?"

Edward Jand, who originally wanted to say something, immediately closed his mouth tightly.

Lin Zheng is actually right. This time he came to Lin Zheng, there are really factors from the US government. Although the US government has not said a word about the war between Motorola and Lianchuang Technology so far, Motorola's stock price has been falling all the way, and its market share has been getting worse day by day. The US government, military, lawmakers, and those pro-Motorola people within the government can finally help it.

They and Motorola have a relationship of prosperity and loss. When Motorola was strong, they were Motorola's extremely steadfast supporters and pawns. But once Motorola's strength was damaged, it means that the funds provided by their supporters to them decreased. If politics is not done without money, it is absolutely impossible to do politics without money. What kind of politics can be done without money? The taste of power is fascinating, and once it is contaminated, it is impossible for people to dance. For their own status and interests, they will also fight to put pressure on Motorola desperately.

For Motorola, now they are in urgent need of support from the government and Congress. With these resources, Motorola has a great hope of returning to its peak, but once it loses these support and the resources that Motorola has cultivated for so long, Motorola will really be in a slump.

Edward Jander dared not take this risk, or in other words, no Motorola chairman dared to do so.

However, Lang Xuan looked at Edward and Zhan De in surprise, then turned his head to look at his man, and was more surprised and happy: This is my man.

Seeing the default Edward Zhande, Lin Zheng didn't care much about himself and looked at him with a smile: "Now, will Motorola still refuse?"

Edward Jander smiled bitterly: "Okay, but Lin, you should understand that even if Motorola agrees, the regulators will not approve this kind of patent transaction. Not only will it not approve it, but the review will be particularly strict."

The implication is that even if there are flexible means, it will not work unless Motorola intends to be enemies with the entire interest group.

"What else is there to talk about?" Lin Zheng was a little unhappy when he heard Edward Jand say this: "After all, what you mean is to tell me that Motorola intends to admit defeat but refuses to pay the price. How can there be such a cheap good thing in this world? Are you sure you are here to talk to me about this today, not to be here to enjoy me?"

Indeed, even Edward and Jander felt that their faces were hot. Since they were losers, they always had to pay some price. But now, Lin Zheng raised a condition and refuted it by himself, and then he refuted it by himself... Are you playing tricks? (To be continued.)
