Chapter 462 Cooperating and Negotiating Too Smoothly With Withering

Looking at the headquarters of the Withering Group in front of him, Wen Liang straightened his clothes habitually.

I have dealt with Weiluo Gekong a lot, but this is the first time for him to come here.

The size of the building group is acceptable.

Surrounded by crowds.

It can be seen that its background is not shallow, and the scenery remains the same.

After raising his legs and taking two steps, Wen Liang had a smile on his face.

In front of them were Wu Dong and other new senior executives of the declining group. They really showed up.

"Mr. Wen, welcome to Shuer."

"I came here uninvited, so much trouble, I hope you will forgive me."

"Where there is, Mr. Wen is driving, and he is full of glory."

"Wu Dong is polite."

"Inside please, inside please."

"Please, Director Wu."

During a polite handshake and greeting, a group of people walked into the withered building talking and laughing.

In the contact just now, Wu Dong has a distinctive style.

It is closely related to his identity. He is not a businessman, but directly appointed by the state-owned assets. His rank is not low, and he has a deputy director.

This reflects the importance that state-owned assets and related units attach to the circle of things surrounding the decline, and their determination to reverse the situation.

How should I put it, Weiluo is not the same as other companies that have been reformed from the state to private enterprises. It is really famous.

How big is it?
What is the status of the chrysanthemum factory in the later generations in the eyes of most netizens, and what is the status of the current decline.

For a long time, when speaking publicly on the Internet, you can't mention it casually.

One mention is the light of the nation.

One mention is the acquisition of IBM to win glory for the country.

In the past one or two years, before the goodwill has declined, its halo is even worse than that of the later generations of Juchang.

On the contrary, the current Chrysanthemum Factory is really "not worth mentioning" in the eyes of ordinary netizens who have heard of this company.

Because before 2010 and even now, most people think that Juchang is just a copycat switching and routing manufacturer that started by copying Cisco.

What’s more, practitioners especially in network engineering-related industries are very disdainful when talking about Juchang, or even spread rumors, saying that it’s okay for Juchang to copy Cisco.

The facts are not so outrageous. There was indeed a lawsuit. From 03 to 04, it was fought for a year and a half, but in the end there was a handshake.

But it is not so innocent. The operating system used by Juchang’s early enterprise-level switching and routing is almost the same as the Cisco switching and routing operating system ios. The operation command content and protocol are almost the same, and even Cisco’s unique protocol is used.

Yes, Cisco's operating system for switching routing is also called ios, and Apple officially changed its name from iOS 2010 at WWDC in 4 after obtaining the iOS name authorization from Cisco.

Of course, after the start of the intellectual property litigation, Juchang also took a lot of countermeasures, including the emergence of H3C, etc. Juchang hired IBM for management consulting very early, and the compliance aspect is getting better every year. .

Chrysanthemum Factory's reputation on the Internet is not ideal, and it is also related to the lawsuit that lasted for a year and a half. Cisco is a relatively mature company in all aspects, and it used public opinion methods when it came up. Exaggeration is inevitable.

In short, looking at any large commercial company, such and such things happened in the early stages of chaos.

No one can live like a white lotus.

Business is a business where profits come first.

It's not that Bolang doesn't have a dark history, and he doesn't talk about those behaviors in overseas markets. Xiaochengshu has played a lot of routines and tricks since he started.

Because it was the first time to come to Wither, Wen Liang's thoughts diverged farther away.

Thinking of Juchang from withering, and now thinking of Juchang, an interesting company, Wen Liang felt a little playful in his heart.

Regardless of the future or the present, in fact, there have been certain "unbelievable" things happening around the chrysanthemum factory.

Most of these things have to do with infighting.

For example, Yu Dadong repeatedly stated his vision for the mobile phone terminal business through Weibo and other platforms last year. In fact, he was coercing the momentum of public opinion in disguise to express his position to some people, and it was also to put pressure on some people.

So far, there are still many senior executives in Juchang who are not so optimistic about the development of the mobile phone business. Even if the operators have begun to significantly reduce the customized phone business, they still want to eat the last bite.

Another example is that Yu Dadong often brags in later generations, and he has similar intentions.

Another example is Yu Dadong's resolute refusal to join the Xinghe IC design community.

In short, the root of internal fighting is for profit.

There are many interests involved here.

Among them, there is a succession dispute that cannot be avoided. The chrysanthemum factory is a bit different from ordinary private enterprises. It seems that the boss is not so good at passing the company directly to future generations. It is difficult to convince the public. Lah, etc. are all constraints.

Just like Wen Liang can easily control Bolang, so can Ren Boss.

But he is 69 years old this year, and the end of his life will only get closer and closer. Some people probably already think in his heart that he will retire at the right time, and then it will be a power struggle in the office.

Therefore, no matter now or in future generations, Juchang actually does not care as much about online public opinion evaluation as netizens imagined. These things are even a tool for them to compete for, which is very interesting.

Wen Liang is not worried about this most complicated issue of internal interests.

He even dared to limit the veto power of the founder team in principle.

Because he thought about the transfer of control early on.

Giving the representatives of the employee stock ownership meeting the rights of one person, one vote is to put management power in a cage for supervision in a real sense.

Not only that, but there are also supervision considerations in promoting the listing of Bolang Xiaocheng.

Use primary market investors, secondary market stock investors, etc. to supervise its social platforms from being used as internal struggle tools.

Wen Liangyou seriously regards the chrysanthemum factory in the past, present and future generations as the best teacher of Bolang's management system.

Even in many ways, it is to carefully touch the chrysanthemum factory to cross the river.

Fortunately, Wen Liang can not only learn from Juchang to avoid repeating the same mistakes in Bolang's management development, but also has more room for experimentation and maneuvering than Juchang.

Because he is still a few days away from his 21st birthday, there is at least 40 years to spare, and he will only be 40 after [-] years, probably not enough to live~
Walking into Shuluo, then contacting the Chrysanthemum Factory, and thinking about Bolang himself who already has a similar network status, Wen Liang's heart is inevitably awe-inspiring.

Standing on such an old 'bone', Bo Lang was still thundering every step of the way.

Moreover, Bolang has gradually stepped into the predicament of starting a business, which is not easy!

…………

wilting a large conference room

After the group of people sat down separately, Director Wu exchanged warm greetings again and introduced Wen Liang's team of withered executives.

After a while, Director Wu took the initiative to mention the current predicament of Wei Luo: "To tell the truth, Mr. Wen, our company is facing internal and external troubles. I don't know if there is room for cooperation with Bolang."

Wen Liang: "..."

He was really stunned again, no one had mentioned to him that Director Wu was related to his side, how could the steps be in place so well?
From the left and the right, no one can see that Wu Dong is pretending to be fake.

"Wu Dong..." Wen Liang paused for a moment, and he was straightforward, "To tell the truth, Wu Dong, I came to visit your company this time to hope to have some cooperation in the computer and server business."

Wu Dong's eyes brightened slightly: "Mr. Wen, please tell me."

Wen Liangke said politely: "As the world's largest personal computer brand, your company has relatively deep accumulation in the domestic market and the international market. Our company is promoting a new computer ecosystem based on the star core. We hope to cooperate with you. Your company cooperates in this regard.”

"It's the same in the server space."

Wu Dong said sincerely: "As a Chinese company, it is also part of our duty to promote an ecology with domestic intellectual property rights. Of course, such cooperation is no problem."

"..."

Next, the two sides exchanged views on the direction of cooperation.

Although the beginning was very smooth, the negotiation lasted for two days.

because……

On the first day, the meeting between Wen Liang and Wu Dong and the others ended in less than 10 minutes. What Wu Dong meant was that they already understood Wen Liang's purpose and needed some time for internal communication.

Wen Liang took advantage of the situation and said goodbye tomorrow.

In fact, Wen Liang also needs some space to find the answer.

Find the answer to why Wu Dong's posture is so 'weird'.

However, the strange thing is that neither the business people including Boss Lei, nor Uncle Yu Chengyu or even the old man could answer Wen Liang's doubts.

Everyone doesn't know this Wu Dong.

There is no way to talk about Wu Dong's posture.

But Wen Liang is not the kind of character who is timid and timid, so let's talk about the cooperation that should be discussed.

On the second day, Li Xia was mainly in charge, and one of the executives was also in charge of the decline, because this time it involved a more specific cooperation project.

Lixia first expressed his specific expectations for cooperation: "We hope to cooperate with your company in a special form to launch a new series of personal computers, similar to the ThinkPad series."

Zhiluofang executive: "This is no problem. Due to our company's current predicament, we have also had such considerations. We acquired Yulin Mufeng Company a month ago. The Mufeng Xingchen developed by it is currently the most successful No. [-] product on the market. Three-party desktop operating system."

beginning of summer:"……"

She was stunned for a moment, Wei Luo's riding a horse is poisonous, and she has already robbed her lines!

This is exactly what Bo Lang expected.

At present and in the foreseeable future, Bolang does not plan to authorize the star system, including the star tablet system, the star desktop system, and the star cloud system.

As for the star service system that has been trial run in the internal computer room, it will be sold to the outside world in the future. Like all server systems, it is actually selling services.

Therefore, Bolang plans to cooperate with Weiluo in the hope that Weiluo can develop its own operating system based on the star kernel, or acquire desktop operating system products that have been developed based on the open source star kernel.

Who would have thought that Wei Luo had already done this well.

However, Li Xia is Wen Liang's assistant at any rate, and has a strong ability to handle affairs independently. He immediately returned to his senses and continued to talk: "Our company has authorized part of the intellectual property rights of Shenlong D1 to the Galaxy chip, and launched the Galaxy desktop processor platform. Performance is about 1% of D65."

"Of course, this new series of your company can be divided into two models of the same level, the Galaxy platform and the Intel platform."

Withering party executive: "Your company means that the pricing strategy is consistent?"

"Correct."

"No problem, with the Xinghe platform, we will have stronger bargaining power against Intel."

"..."

Really smooth ride.

This was Li Xia's truest emotion after she spoke a few words. At the same time, she was energized and became more vigilant.

She thinks that Wen Liang's worries yesterday are very reasonable, and cooperation can be discussed, but one must be vigilant against the medicine in the gourd.

Lin Hong and the deputy he brought also cheered up and became vigilant in their hearts.

Oral negotiations are implemented in terms of each cooperation clause, which is where problems are most likely to occur, and major legal and compliance issues can arise!
After preliminary discussions between Lixia and the senior executives of Shuilafang, the two parties reached a basic agreement on cooperation in the personal computer industry.

specifically is:
Wither launches a new line of personal computers: Little Star.

Focus on thin and light office, entertainment and study.

The audience is positioned as general office workers, student parties, and household parties.

The starting price is initially set at 4599, which is more than 1000 more expensive than the cheapest production line in the ThinkPad series.

Wei Luofang said that this series will adopt a new industrial design language, focusing on the balance between comprehensive performance, experience and price, and focusing on word of mouth.

This new series will adopt both Intel platform and Galaxy desktop platform on the processor, and will promote the Galaxy desktop platform from the business strategy.

The system uniformly uses a more in-depth iterative version based on Wood Wind and Stars, and the final system name has not yet been determined.

The part of this cooperation that is beneficial to Bolang is:

1. The system uses the Star Core and is commercially available. Wither will take the initiative to pay the authorization fee.

2. Galaxy desktop processor platform orders.

3. Promoted the PC ecology based on Xingchen+Galaxy.

4. Artificially pulling down Intel processors will reduce Intel's goodwill to a certain extent... Once the Xinghe desktop platform and the Intel platform are equated, it will definitely affect Intel's goodwill.

5. The main components of the Xiaoxing series will go through the supply chain of the Bolang terminal, which means that this will help jointly control the reputation of the new series of products.

6. Withering Fangzheng took the initiative to become a potential vassal of Bolang's terminal... At least in this small star series, he was basically working for Bolang.

however……

In the cooperation of this hanging rail, those parts that are most beneficial to Bolang, such as 1, 5, and 6, were all proposed by the wilting party, and Bolang's party never thought of doing this.

Because of such content, theoretically speaking, no company will agree.

MI's Redmi series is not so excessive, and Boss Lei also took a lot of benefits.

For example, the early research and development costs of the Redmi series were saved. For example, the surging S1 chip was marked with the MI label. This thing is enough for Boss Lei to tell several stories, such as using MIUI.

Right now, if you are withering, you will not get any benefits.

This is the world's largest computer brand!

But despite this, Lixia continued to discuss cooperation in the server industry as planned.

At this time, Wu Dong got up and walked to Wen Liang, and said with a smile: "Mr. Wen, let's go to my office and have a cup of tea together."

The doubts and vigilance of Wen Liang and his party were not concealed. Obviously, Director Wu planned to solve the mystery...
