Chapter 483 A fool worth a billion dollars? !
There are no bright spots in the later visits. Qualcomm is nothing more than similar to other Silicon Valley companies, and there is nothing special about it.
However, the "patent wall" of Guang Qualcomm still gave Li Feng a big shock, which also gave Li Feng a deeper understanding of Fengrui's future technological innovation, "Only by mastering the core technology can we do whatever we want."
However, Qualcomm's "patent wall" did not bring any pressure to subsequent negotiations, mainly because the mobile era has not yet arrived, and these communication standard patents have not yet shown their powerful power.
Moreover, the cooperation negotiation between Fengrui and Qualcomm is still very smooth, especially with the matchmaking of Google Larry Page, Qualcomm not only agrees to join the Android Alliance, but also agrees to license the communication patents to Fengrui.
Of course, Qualcomm only agrees to patent licensing, but this is not free, and the main profit method of Qualcomm is patent licensing. It is nothing more than different licensing methods, more money and less money. At that time, not everyone could get Qualcomm's patent authorization.
Therefore, the general framework of the cooperation was quickly determined. The main reason is that both parties have common needs. A mobile operating system needs to be promoted, and a 3G standard needs to be promoted. With the promotion of Google, everything went very smoothly.
However, when it comes to the specific details of the final negotiation contract, Li Feng is a little serious, even a little fussy, especially when it comes to Qualcomm's communication standard patent licensing, Li Feng is word by word, one by one, and one by one.
"What authorization scope refers to the entire Android phone, not a single Fengrui phone..."
"The price of the whole machine refers to the cost price, not the ex-factory price, let alone the sales price..."
"What whole machine does not include a display panel, a camera..."
……
Li Feng's kind of "Grandet" negotiation made Qualcomm's Paul Jacob very puzzled, and even a little annoyed in the end. This is just like a street market vendor who buys vegetables for such a little thing. As for it?
As for?
For sure!
If someone can see the future, they will definitely do the same thing as Li Feng. The "Qualcomm tax" in the previous life really choked the "neck" of the entire smartphone, and in the end it became an industry standard, and no one resisted, or wanted to. You can't resist even if you resist, Qualcomm is the "father" of the entire smartphone.
Now that there is such a good opportunity, Li Feng must not let it go. Now every percentage point of negotiation, and every part of the negotiation will be negotiated for hundreds of millions, billions, or even tens of billions of dollars in the future.
What's more, Li Feng is talking about the entire Android system. If the patent fees for the entire Android smartphone can be reduced, the promotion cost of the Android system will also be greatly reduced in the future. Li Feng is doing this for the benefit of the entire industry!
So Li Feng gave in without Paul Jacob's displeasure, and kept pulling him. Larry Page didn't understand this very well. Isn't Li Feng always a very generous person!
Li Feng's "torturing" negotiations directly broke Paul Jacobs in the end, and only Paul Jacobs sighed directly, "Leo, it's too much trouble for you, if you really If you want our Qualcomm patents, you can take all of them for $10 billion."
He does not mean that.
Li Feng's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked Paul Jacob, "Paul, what did you just say?"
"I said, if you have 10 billion US dollars, you can take away our Qualcomm patents." Paul Jacob said nonchalantly.
"All of them?" Li Feng reconfirmed.
"Well, everything, as long as it is our Qualcomm patent." Paul Jacob said casually.
Paul Jacob felt that Li Feng would definitely not agree. What he did was nothing more than a lion opening his mouth to tell Li Feng not to be so clumsy anymore.
Moreover, for these patents of Qualcomm, since Qualcomm promoted CDMA, the total patent licensing fee is only two to three hundred million U.S. dollars. If Li Feng really agrees, it doesn't matter.
It’s just that what Paul Jacob didn’t expect was that Li Feng agreed, and he agreed so readily, happily, and even so eagerly that Paul Jacob couldn’t believe it. This is 10 billion US dollars, isn’t it? 1 million dollars!
And Li Feng once again gave Paul Jacob an affirmative answer, "Paul, 10 billion US dollars is fine, then let's revise the new contract now!"
Paul Jacobs really didn't expect that someone would actually dare to bid $10 billion for Qualcomm's patents!Billion!U.S. dollars!
Is he, Li Feng, a fool? !
Certainly not, a young man in his 20s who can successfully establish such a large company in the entire Internet desert of China must not be a fool!
But why did he dare to bid 10 billion US dollars to buy these patents? Could it be that there are treasures that he has not discovered in these patents?
Paul Jacob fell into deep thought for a while, and he didn't know what to do.
However, Li Feng was not willing to miss this opportunity, and urged again: "Paul, we can pay 10 billion US dollars, but we must revise the contract now."
This is a condition I put forward. I didn't expect that Li Feng really agreed. Although I don't know why Li Feng agreed, but Paul Jacob knew that Li Feng was definitely not a fool, and he had a big plan, but he couldn't find any reason. Come on, for a while Paul Jacob was a little bit stuck.
But Paul Jacob quickly figured it out, everything else was false, but the $10 billion was real.
And in this short period of time, he also thought of a few supplementary conditions to further make up for what he just said, and even raise the conditions a little bit.
Paul Jacob also said directly: "Leo, since I said it, then it's fine, but I also have 3 small conditions here?"
As long as there are no excessive conditions, Li Feng is definitely very willing to solve Qualcomm's patent authorization in one go!
"What condition? Tell me." Li Feng said straightforwardly.
"The first one is the 10 billion US dollars, which must arrive within half a year!" Paul Jacob said.
"Okay, no problem." Li Feng replied very straightforwardly.
"The second is these patents. We only license them to Fengrui, not to Fengrui, so Fengrui cannot license them to other companies, and the patent authorization period is 10 years." Paul Jacob said.
"Others are available, but the time is a bit too short. We spent 10 billion US dollars, and we need at least 20 years of free licensing." Li Feng said.
"No, 20 years is too long, let's make it 15 years." Paul Jacob said.
"Okay, okay, 15 years is 15 years, what about the third condition?" Li Feng said.
Li Feng did not continue to entangle with Paul Jacobs on these details. Anyway, it is now 2007, and 15 years later will be 2022. At that time, the 5G era will definitely come. Revise communication standards in the 5G era.
"Leo, wait a minute, this second condition is still unclear, I mean your Android system can use our Qualcomm patent, and if you Fengrui develops mobile phones later, you can also use it, no problem.
But this does not include other mobile phone manufacturers using the Android system. That is to say, if other mobile phone manufacturers use your Android system, they must sign a new patent licensing agreement with Qualcomm. "Paul Jacob said.
Oh, so there is such a thing, but it doesn't matter anymore, it's nothing more than Qualcomm continuing to exploit other manufacturers like in the previous life, while Fengrui has no worries, this is Fengrui's competitive advantage, and Li Feng has no reason to replace other manufacturers. Mobile phone manufacturers come forward, otherwise this will become an unspoken rule in the end, and Apple will benefit accordingly.
And Li Feng also nodded in agreement, and then hurriedly asked Paul Jacob the last condition, "Paul, these are all fine, what about the third condition?"
Li Feng really doesn't care about the 10 billion US dollars at all. He just thinks that Apple will pay Qualcomm billions of dollars in taxes every year in the future, and Li Feng feels much better. For the future, this is a small amount of money!
