Rebirth Turn of the Century

Chapter 590 The War No One Tells About

PS: Wen Jing is a character in the plot, so I will scold after watching it.

text:

Passing by an iron gate on Sanlitun North Street, Li Bo wrote his name and pager number on a piece of paper, leaving information that he wanted to rent the place. After more than half a year, on May 15, 1995, Jazz.ya ushered in its opening. This is the first bar in Sanlitun, and it is also the 'old place' where Li Wei, Bai Li, and Hao Ying had children.

When the lights came on, the two children walked out of the Jazz.ya bar. The bar is not facing the street, but the people in line have already lined up from the door to the main road.

Seats have been placed on the side of the road, and countless young people are already sitting there, watching the sunset with draft beer.

The hazy nightlife in Sanlitun is about to begin, romantic and beautiful.

"Zhao Song seems to have said that before the opening of the bar street, there was no fashionable person in Sanlitun, and when the construction of Sanlitun is completed, there will be no unfashionable person in Sanlitun."

Under the amazed gaze of the people, the two women took a walk in the setting sun. The white-collar workers in line recognized Li Wei's identity, but they didn't bother her because of her polite response.

"That's why he chose Yiren's first store here. He said this will be the last space and reason to embrace slow life in Beijing."

Li Wei looked around, except for this bar street, ruined walls and clanging construction sites everywhere, she couldn't see anything special here.

There is no Taikoo Li, there is no Uniqlo, there is no looking around with various telephoto lenses in front of its door, and there are no coquettish girls with X organs.

fashionable?

Except for the young people who come to the bar, Li Wei, who lives abroad, can't see anything fashionable here.

She shook her head and asked, "Do you still remember Brother Ji?"

"Why don't you remember?" Bai Li smiled, "There is no one here who doesn't know him. Although he is in his fifties, he is still like a chasing boy. Without him, the nightclubs in the capital are less exciting, and the sisters in the capital see him. , They all flew up. Brother Ji had one of the most irritating words—the post-80s generation did not pass the life that our old scumbags lived, but our old slapstick is slapping on the life that your post-80s passed. "

Li Wei recalled that absurd time, feeling a little embarrassed: "At that time, the three of us were like little fans. I remember that on his 45th birthday, he made a 'squeaky' sound..."

She danced and said, "Show a sharp weapon, not a sword, but a qin. The guitar is like a rock and roll weapon. Suddenly it shattered, and he smashed the guitar on the roast duck stove, and then threw the broken six-stringed instrument. Put it in a roast duck oven and burn it, and the famous performance art was born."

Thinking about it now, the three of them are a group of girlfriends standing at the crossroads of changing times.

There is no silence in the regiment.

That obedient schoolgirl has never been on the same side as them except for comparisons and fighting spirits.

"Wen Jing is back."

Betty said suddenly.

"I know." Li Wei nodded, "Tianmao is at home, I don't know what to do."

"She's hooked up with a lot of people and trying to recruit that idiot."

"She came back from the United States, so she's not that stupid," Li Wei shook her head and said, "Zhao Song is in full swing now, those people are just playing around and looking for great opportunities in these major domestic crises. After all, as long as Zhao Song makes a move To solve the problem, money will definitely clear the way, and this is the opportunity for those people."

Betty asked with interest: "What about you?"

"I'm leaving!" Li Wei said firmly, "Among those people, some of them have scary backgrounds. The scary thing is that they are all involved by someone. What's even more scary is that I don't know who that 'someone' is. !"

Bai Li asked anxiously, "Does Zhao Song know?"

"I don't know." Li Wei patted Fa Xiao's shoulders, smiled and comforted, "There is nothing to worry about, in fact, that person was pushed out to test Zhao Song Chengse.

If he loses, the private companies in his hands will be like Shenzhou. If there is wealth, everyone will distribute it together, and I will honestly mix in the system as his little god of wealth; if he wins, this kind of thing will be much less in the future. "

"Will he lose?"

"..."

Li Wei was silent, and then shivered as if remembering something, and said with lingering fear: "Bai Li, if you knew his experience in the United States in the past two years, you wouldn't ask such a stupid question."

"That's good~" Bai Li smiled and pointed to Yi Ren not far away, "Let's have a spa treatment together, and then you can talk to me carefully."

"good."

Li Wei looked at the signboard of the Yiren club. The name was given by Zhao Song, which is the same as the name of the 'Weiwei' group.

"Things, let's start after the market battle between Tesla and Wanwan..."

...

South Xinfa Market South.

The lonely and secret courtyard is still there, and the road leading to it is getting wider and greener.

The courtyard is very lively, children's noises come and go, accompanied by women's scolding, dogs barking, full of the breath of life.

"Liu Yupeng, the money has been sent to the account you provided, remember to check it."

"..."

"You're welcome, I have no other requirements, as long as you provide me with your progress at the right time, isn't that too much?"

"..."

"Okay, waiting for your good news."

In the luxurious high-ceilinged living room, Wen Jing put down the phone, didn't care about someone's glaring, picked up the little baby who was struggling to crawl, and hugged her lovingly.

"snort!"

This is the old eighth with an angry face.

"Oh~"

This is a bland culture.

Wen Jing squinted at the two of them, and said indifferently: "What are you two doing so strangely?"

The old man glared at her angrily: "Come back when you come back, and stay with uncle and concubine well, what are you doing with those moths?"

Wen Jing spread her hands: "Make money."

"You can't make money in America?"

"After earning, I sold the PayPal shares."

"If you earn money, you earn money. Tell my uncle, what kind of money won't be earned for you, what are you doing to Zhao Song?"

"..."

Wen Jing didn't speak, she turned her face to Lao Ba, and rolled her eyes fiercely in his angry look.

"You~"

"Okay, old eight."

Wenhua smiled, told the old eighth to be calm, and asked her daughter in a harmonious voice:

"Do you know who's in charge?"

Wen Jing thought for a long time before shaking her head and said: "I don't know, I only know that the person in charge is not very important, but some of the people he contacts are very powerful."

"Quiet, I'm telling you, if you dare..."

"Brother." Wen Jing interrupted the old eighth, "My funds have gone to Longcheng.

You need to know that if Zhao Song does not participate in this project, the steel is originally dominated by state funds; if Zhao Song participates, even private funds and normal business exchanges can change from gray to white for benefits.

So even if there is no Wen Jing, there will be Li Jing and Zhang Jing. "

"..."

Lao Ba was speechless, his face flushed.

"What's more, I don't know whether Gangben is the target of that person. If I know, do you think I won't tell Zhao Song?"

"What can't Nizi do?" Lao Ba said angrily.

"Crack~"

The used diapers were stuck on his face, and Lao Ba just wanted to fight back, but found that Wen Jing picked up his little nephew and blocked his head.

Wenhua and his young wife looked at each other, and then continued to laugh at the siblings fighting, the happiness in their eyes that was about to overflow could not be hidden.

When the two of them had no more diapers to spare, he said gently:

"Quiet, what do we need to do?"

After handing the younger brother to the young stepmother, Wen Jing asked tangledly:

"How many three-way and one-da shares do you two have?"

"You!" Old Ba Teng stood up.

"Old Ba." Wen Hua signaled to calm down his nephew, and replied to his daughter: "I am a shareholder, and Lao Ba is the manager of the North China Region. We add up to a total of 5.3 points."

"Does the headquarters management have shares?"

"No." Wenhua shook his head, "Three links and one delivery are business consulting-style management. Over the years, we have been exploring our own business model under the guidance of Wanwan and the international logistics professional team, and how much we pay for the work we do."

"Does that mean they don't have much power?"

"You can't say that," Wenhua shook his head. "At least they have a lot of say in the construction of local distribution centers and logistics outlets."

"That's good." Wen Jing put her hands on her chin and looked at her father expectantly: "How about...sell me your shares?"

"Whimsical!" Lao Ba shouted angrily.

"Okay." Culture took it easy.

"Uncle~" Lao Ba couldn't believe it.

"Since there are people who want to court death," Wenhua looked at his daughter teasingly, "there are still people who want Zhao Song to be obedient and accept their fate, then I will help them!"

"Uncle~"

"Old Ba, don't you have confidence in Zhao Song?"

"..."

"Then sell it to her, and then accompany uncle to enjoy this great show."

Wen Jing patted happily and said, "Thank you."

"Don't thank me in advance~" Wen Hua waved his hand and asked with a smile, "Are you rich?"

"Yes." Wen Jing said confidently, "Thank you Zhao Song, because Tesla's previous patent war and the current secondary financing have attracted the attention of capital and let me secretly sell PayPal shares."

"Look, this is my precious girl!" Wenhua laughed loudly, "Go all the way."

"Big~" Wen Jing said coquettishly.

"The matter of the shares is settled, now let's talk about the patent war, let us learn more, and let your starling have more confidence in Zhao Song."

"..."

A trace of fear flashed in Wen Jing's eyes, and after a long time of recollection, she slowly opened her mouth:

"His opponents are Apple and a consortium of manufacturers led by 27 medium-sized companies, which is famous in the United States for its patent litigation against large companies.

When Tesla and Wanwan finished their market battle, they launched the Ipod and many off-brand MP3 players, and then waited for Tesla's patent lawsuit. "

"Wait?" Lao Ba asked suspiciously, "Why didn't they initiate a lawsuit first?"

"Because in the patent disputes in the United States, the passive party is mostly established and well-known companies. Apple and the manufacturer alliance know this and don't want to become a tool for Tesla to make a name for themselves, so they are waiting."

Speaking of this, Wen Jing's hands suddenly trembled slightly, she took a sip from the water glass, and then continued to state:

"But they obviously underestimated Zhao Song's patience and marketing and advertising planning capabilities. Tpod chassic2 was launched, Zhao Song's three advertisements and Hao Ying's two new Grammy songs made Tesla's market share fall for three consecutive months. It went up instead of down, so they were in a hurry, and the lawsuit began."

Wen Jing held the cup tightly with both hands:

"According to the previous agreement, each of the three parties pays several million in legal fees, drags on for a year and a half, and the one who gains the most in the market pays another tens of millions in settlement fees, and the matter is over.

However, no one expected that Zhao Song would come. "

The living room was very quiet, Wenhua and Lao Ba listened carefully, and the young mother quietly sat beside Wenhua after putting the child to sleep.

"When he arrived in the United States, the first thing he did was to directly reject all suggestions from the legal team, Tesla management, and from China.

The 11 patent infringement case was split into 139 cases by him frantically, so the most exciting patent war in the United States began.

From the day he arrived in the United States, this patent war lasted a total of 22 months! "

Lao Ba opened his mouth and asked in surprise: "Why is there no report in China?"

"Because Tesla has lost 8 consecutive losses from the very beginning." Wen Jing was very scared, "No one is optimistic about him, including his former partners, except for three people. Ding Tao is sitting in the country, lobbying and appease those leaders everywhere; Gui Luyang graduated from the business school ahead of schedule, opened up off-site wars, and created conflicts in all aspects of talent, patents, stock markets, and the market.

At that time, when Apple poached one from Tesla, Gui Luyang dared to poach ten from it.

And Liao Yingzhu, ignoring multiple market warnings and death threats, completed the acquisition of three small manufacturers, allowing Tesla to perfectly bypass the patent wall of the manufacturer alliance! "

"Then you started winning?" Lao Ba asked expectantly.

"We lost another 6 games." Wen Jing shook her head and smiled wryly, "The opponent made too many tricks outside the market. It was the first time Zhao Song appeared in front of American consumers. No one could imagine a yellow-skinned flower grower. Tesla is a flower grower company. ... a scene that was all used to provoke people with a heart."

"..."

"I still remember that two days ago there was an American financial media review, and I was too busy to count Zhao Song's quotations. In public, he said f***k 23 times, B***ch 19 times, and lost his composure 8 times after the trial. time, clashed with the other party’s lawyers three times, spent 31 hours in the police station, and spent more than 9 million dollars on bail.”

"..."

I don't know why, Lao Ba suddenly felt panicked in his heart, he asked tremblingly: "He...why didn't he tell us? He...how did he get over here..."

"have no idea."

Wen Jing's eyes are slightly red:

"Except for those three people, other subordinates persuaded him, business partners questioned him, and major domestic leaders questioned him.

But he just refused to retreat. At that time, he found a personal assistant and handed over his personal phone number. No one paid any attention to him. He continued to fight, swear, and confront Crazy Qiao in the media! "

"And you won?" Old Eight asked expectantly.

"2 more losses."

Wen Jing stretched out two fingers, and suddenly laughed, "8, 6, 2, a total of 16 lawsuits, it took half a year, until someone finally reacted - they finally found out: If according to the previous indictment In nine cases, they haven't even finished a single lawsuit, but Tesla has dragged down three small manufacturers, and Apple's stock has fallen by 1.2%..."

Hearing this, Wen Hua was finally moved, and Lao Ba was dumbfounded.

"Before the seventeenth hearing, Gui Luyang visited the partners of several other big law firms. I don't know how she convinced those old and cunning guys. Anyway, since then, because of the payment of legal fees, The alliance of manufacturers fell apart."

"..."

"Because of the nervousness, Zhao Song always relied on driving a sports car to relax at that time. At that time, a small manufacturer jumped the wall and drove a big Chevrolet..."

Wen Jing's face was full of fear.

"His personal assistant frantically pulled the steering wheel and turned the passenger side of the Chevrolet."

"Boom~"

"The assistant was seriously injured, Zhao Song almost went crazy!"

"..."

Wen Wen was silent, and he held his wife's tightly clenched little hand, and Lao Ba muttered uncleanly.

"That's why the news of the victory was not reported in China.

The month since then has been the best month for law and order in New York, and it is also a month of crazy revenge from the American investment banks behind Tesla. Off-the-board tricks disappeared.

It was at that time that everyone understood his purpose of letting Tesla go public. "

"After that, in order to prevent further accidents, the American courts accelerated the progress, and the number of Tesla lawyers reached an unprecedented 233 people.

Half a year later, Tesla and the Alliance of Manufacturers reached an out-of-court settlement at the cost of more than RMB 90 million in legal fees, RMB 20 million in compensation, and USD 0.37 for each Tpod. "

"...This," Lao Ba wondered, "does this count as a win?"

Wen Jing shook her head: "If you follow the advice of the lawyers, there are roughly so many compensation plans."

Culture: "Where are the apples?"

"Apple proposed reconciliation negotiations. Zhao Song once again rejected the persuasion of countless people. He didn't even reply. He continued to fight Madman Qiao."

Wen Jing said with emotion: "Since then, young people in the United States prefer to call him a lunatic. No one still talks about his skin color, Tesla's origin, and brand history. A young billionaire who fights without saying a word, alone against dozens of famous CEOs."

Wenhua finally vaguely guessed Zhao Song's purpose, and sighed:

"Individual heroism prevails in America."

"Maybe it has more meaning." Wen Jing disagreed with her father's statement, "In 18 months, Tesla's market share in the high-end PC market in the United States was 16.7%, music players accounted for 43.3%, and Shengtian's share in the digital music market directly increased. To 77%, the commercial software ecology has opened up the market, rising rapidly to 6.7%.

In terms of high-end accessories, the country of players has directly pushed its own unknown Wanwan brand to the 2nd and 3rd tier positions, and its market share was once equal to that of EVGA..."

Wen Jing took a sip of water to moisten her throat, held back her excitement, and turned up the volume:

"Zhao Song said in front of the media: Apple has the right to choose when to start, but when to end is up to Tesla.

As a result, the lawsuit continued, and Apple's stock price continued to fluctuate. "

"In the eighteenth month, a number of heavyweight business management papers from Ivy League universities were published in the top journals. The papers explained in great detail various concepts derived from Zhao Song:

Entrepreneur's personal brand, eyeball effect, fan economy, etc..."

"In 22 months, the lawsuit was pronounced. Tesla compensated Apple more than 30 million US dollars, 0.83 US dollars per unit, and 130 million lawyers' fees. So far, all 139 patent disputes have come to an end."

(PS: Similar to Apple and Google, the annual patent attorney fees and compensation are as high as tens of millions of dollars)

"..."

"Is this a win or a loss?"

Wen Jing waited for the bright eyes, and exclaimed: "The result is not much different from the result suggested by the legal team at first. Do you think you won or lost?"

"I think I won." Lao Ba scratched his head, "After playing for such a long time, at least Tesla is not inferior to Apple in terms of branding. Zhao Song's personal reputation is in full swing, which has increased the sales of Tesla products in disguise and cultivated many loyal fans. Fans, the complete settlement of the patent has a lot less hidden dangers than the pre-court settlement..."

"You ignore the Tesla management team." Wen Jing added, "Except for those three people, even if the others opposed Zhao Song, they all cooperated with him with all their strength. After the sale, Tesla has survived all of them, which is the foundation for it to gain a foothold in the international market.”

Culture nodded in agreement, then laughed:

"So some people want to take advantage of the fact that the terrorist team is not in the country to make troubles.

Aren't you afraid of Zhao Song? "

Wen Jing rolled her eyes: "Da~ Please replace 'you' with 'they'.

Of course I was afraid, but Zhao Song proved his foresight with countless correct decisions, which made more people pay attention to the few sole proprietorships in his hands.

Then, they set their sights on one kilometer, three links and one reach.

What is he going to do? What does their future mean?

Nobody knows, but it's definitely not small.

Therefore, those people will never imagine being excluded from the wealth sharing gate like companies such as Shenzhou and Tesla.

then……"

Wen Jing spread his hands, needless to repeat.

Wen Hua stood up and patted Lao Ba on the shoulder: "Aren't you worried about Zhao Song now?"

Lao Ba curled his lips: "I never worried about it."

"Tough mouth." Wenhua laughed and scolded, then he looked at his daughter and blessed:

"Then I wish you success."

"Big~"

Wen Jing was weak and coquettish, "It's them, not me."
