The richest man starts with black technology

Chapter 149 Heavy Cooperation

Apple's desire to cooperate with the source code company is not just talking about it. Instead, it sent relevant personnel from the Xiaguo district headquarters to start researching the market and contact the source code company.

Although the mobile phone's intelligent voice assistant was not made by Apple at first, it must have been carried forward by Apple. If Apple can acquire SIRI and PullString for the voice assistant, it will definitely be interested in smarter Xiaoyuan.

Apple has sent a letter to the source code company, hoping that the top executives of both sides can meet and negotiate in the Shanghai stock market.

Apple’s behavior accelerated Warwick’s determination to cooperate with the source code company, but it embarrassed Blue Factory and Green Factory.

The Blue Factory and the Green Factory just banned the use of Xiaoyuan. Here, Apple wants to acquire Xiaoyuan’s voice assistant technology. What is this not to slap yourself?

Now the two mobile phone manufacturers don't know whether they should continue to disable Xiaoyuan's voice assistant or open it up.

Netizens also began to question:

"Apple is ready to acquire Xiaoyuan's voice assistant. Do you still want to continue to ban the use of Xiaoyuan's voice assistant?"

"Warwick is discussing cooperation with the source code company, and Apple is discussing the way to cooperate. Your operation is a bit fascinating!"

The Blue Factory and the Green Factory can only play dead.

Three o'clock in the morning, source code company, conference room.

Zhou Xiao, Ma Xin, Chen Ye, Xue Ninglu and others sat together. After a long meal of instant noodles was considered an extra meal, they continued to analyze Warwick's information.

Ma Xin said: "We are able to solve the technical problems raised by Warwick, and now there are two main problems. One is the unit price of the installation, and the other is that Warwick hopes that after the two parties sign the contract, we will no longer cooperate with other companies."

Xue Ninglu added: "Warwick will not care that we continue to list Xiaoyuan's voice assistant on third-party platforms, but more advanced voice assistants can only work with him."

Zhou Xiao did not answer this question immediately, but said: "What do you think about the price?"

At present, the source code company has only input but no output, and the cooperation with Warwick may be the only income at present.

Ma Xin said: "Although Warwick did not specify it, it hopes that it will not be higher than the patent fees of ordinary mobile phones."

The general mobile phone patent fee refers to the product usage fee paid by the mobile phone using the patented products of certain companies. This part of the fee is mainly concentrated in the communication baseband, cellular standards and so on.

Mi bought Qualcomm's chips and still pay Qualcomm patent fees?

Correct!Monopoly products are so black, products are products, and patents are patents.

And this part of the patent fee ranges from tens of yuan to more than one hundred yuan.

"We calculated a number based on the company's cost and future profit goals, as well as the annual sales volume of Warwick mobile phones." Chen Ye handed the accounting sheet to Zhou Xiao and said: "The fee we charge is not less than 30 yuan to be able to Ensure the company’s profitability and R&D capabilities."

Warwick is the world's largest mobile phone terminal provider. It would be great if you can negotiate with Warwick.

Zhou Xiao said: "Just talk to Warwick with the installed capacity of 30 yuan per mobile phone. It is impossible for us to cooperate with a Warwick company, but we can give Warwick the priority to use it for one year."

Zhou Xiao is striving for the greatest benefit and influence for the source code company.

If Xiaoyuan’s voice assistant cooperates with Warwick, then Xiaoyuan’s voice assistant must be deeply integrated with Warwick EMUI. The functions will be more powerful and intelligent. In addition, the source code company has opened up the English language library, which can be used for translation. , And also able to launch the overseas version of the voice assistant for foreign users.

In this way, the installed capacity of Xiaoyuan's voice assistant will be guaranteed and a certain reputation can be accumulated.

Non-Huawei mobile phone users see Xiaoyuan's voice assistant so smart and convenient, and will actively download and experience the third-party version of Xiaoyuan's voice assistant.

Warwick guides users to use voice assistants, and third-party applications allow more users to experience voice assistants. As a result, Zhou Xiao can see that the monopoly value exceeds 70%.

As for working with Apple?

Let’s put this aside first. Apple’s conditions have been initially known to Zhou Xiao, and there is still a certain gap compared to Warwick.

Cooperation with Warwick is called cooperation, and cooperation with Apple means that your product obeys the IOS arrangement.

At five o'clock in the morning, the cooperation plan with Warwick was finalized. After Ma Xin drank three cups of coffee and ate a cage of small buns, he washed his face and prepared to negotiate with Warwick again at eight.

Zhou Xiao looked at such a desperate middle-aged man and said, "Brother Xin is also fighting for the meat buns with coffee. After discussing the cooperation with Warwick, I will give you a long vacation."

Why do people fight?

If the job can meet your dreams, of course you must work hard.If the job is just to earn money to eat, then of course it is to fish if you can.

He Bin also had the opportunity to stay up all night, thinking about today's negotiation plan with the team.

The bottom line of the price Warwick needs to pay He Bin is very clear, and Yu Jiangdong gave He Bin a request——

Be sure to reach a cooperation with the source code company before the release of MATE40. MATE40 must use the latest and most advanced Xiaoyuan voice assistant, and MATE40 must become the king of the machine!

Based on this goal, Yu Jiangdong called He Bin early in the morning.

Yu Jiangdong said: "You and I understand the situation of Warwick's mobile terminal in the past two years. The chip is stuck in the neck of the United States. If there is no accident, MATE40 may be the pinnacle of Warwick in the next few years."

Although He Bin stayed up all night in a row, his thinking was still clear at this time.

He understood very well what Yu Jiangdong meant. Warwick has a strong chip design capability, which is catching up with Qualcomm.However, Warwick does not have enough chip manufacturing capabilities. Almost all previous chips were produced by TSMC.

Now that the United States is stuck, TSMC cannot continue to supply Warwick, and Xiaxin International has insufficient technology. The Kirin 1020 processor may really be the pinnacle of the next few years.

The chip can no longer improve, how can Warwick continue to stand at the top of the market?

Only relying on optimizing the ecological chain and optimizing the intelligence of mobile phones, Xiaoyuan's voice assistant obviously provides an opportunity for Warwick.

"Mr. Yu, don't worry!"

At the beginning of the negotiation, both parties did not have much opinion on the price and technology.

The only difference is in the priority service life.

The one-year priority period given by the source code company, Warwick hopes to be extended to three years.

When the two parties were in a dispute, Ma Xin said: "Xiaoyuan Voice Assistant is developed based on Oracle programming software. The source code company intends to establish an Oracle programming software R&D team with your company to develop our own ecological chain, including the operating system. "

After Yu Jiangdong learned of the news, he personally decided to sign the cooperation agreement.

The content of the agreement is as follows:

The source code company and Warwick jointly established a voice assistant research and development department to develop an intelligent voice assistant based on the EMUI system based on Xiaoyuan's voice assistant technology. The voice assistant continues to be named Xiaoyuan.

Every time Warwick installs a small lady, it pays the source code company's 30 yuan soft sister coin for the use of technology patents.

The new voice assistant server will run on the Warwick cloud server.

The source code company will not allow other terminal companies to cooperate in the development of new voice assistants in the next year.

The two parties set up a system ecological research department to jointly develop and optimize the ecological chain of mobile terminals using Oracle programming software.

On the day the agreement was signed, Yu Jiangdong also rushed from Shenzhen to Jiangcheng to attend the signing ceremony.

Ma Xin and Yu Jiangdong signed their names on the agreement and took a group photo.

A large number of reporters came after hearing the news, and surrounded small source code companies.

After obtaining Zhou Xiao's consent, Chen Ye agreed that reporters with a press card would enter the conference room to film the process of signing the agreement.

"Heavy news! Heavy news! Warwick appeared in Jiangdong in Jiangdong and is signing a cooperation agreement with the source code company! It is expected that more advanced intelligent cloud voice assistants will be carried on Warwick's new mobile phones in the future!"

"Blue Factory and Green Factory are relieved, because they don't need to disable them, and the source code company will not cooperate with them."

"The cooperation between Warwick and the source code company means that Samsung and other companies' strategies to disable Xiaoyuan's voice assistant have all failed! We look forward to Warwick becoming better, and we also expect Xia Guo to have more technology companies like source code. "

"Hello everyone, this is the live broadcast of Litchi. It is rare for Warwick Consumer BG and CEO Yu Jiangdong to appear at the signing ceremony! It also shows that Warwick attaches great importance to this cooperation."

Ma Xin was in a trance at this time, feeling that time and space were in a disorder.

Not long ago, he was an ordinary employee of Warwick, and the leader Yu Jiangdong was only seen at the conference every year.

When I saw Yu Jiangdong, I basically used a notebook to write notes or listen to the leadership's advice. I never said a word to Yu Jiangdong, let alone sit on an equal footing.

Today, Ma Xin and Yu Jiangdong are sitting together.

Today's agreement is also perfect, and the source code company is struggling.

Yu Jiangdong and Ma Xin shook hands and said: "I know that President Ma also worked in Warwick before, and today is your cooperation between Warwick people."

Ma Xin smiled and corrected Yu Jiangdong's statement: "Today is the cooperation between the source code company and Warwick."

Yang Liu in Shenzhen watched the live broadcast of Litchi and saw his man standing on the stage and shaking hands with Yu Jiangdong after exchanging an agreement with Yu Jiangdong.

This scene made Yang Liu cry no longer.

Yangliu's nose was sour and crying. Only she understood how much pressure her husband was under when he left Warwick.

Today, all the pressure is released!

He succeeded!

Yang Liu whispered, "Ma Jingwen, you have to know that your father is the best man in the world!"

The cooperation between the source code company and Warwick has made more people understand that Xiaoyuan Voice Assistant has unlimited potential!

After Warwick obtained the right to use Xiaoyuan's voice assistant, it took a week to polish up the more advanced Xiaoyuan voice assistant integrated into EMUI with the source code company.

Warwick worked overtime to put the voice assistant in the MATE40 that has been produced.

One month later, in November, Warwick's autumn new product launch conference, MATE40 was released!

Zhou Xiao looked at the 53.43% monopoly value, and sat on the sofa at home watching Warwick's new product launch.

If there is no accident, at most one week, the monopoly value will soon reach the standard!
