Reborn Xiangjiang Tycoon Growth
Chapter 198 Mobile Phone
Because the scientific research value of the thesis was too high, MIT was worried that a public defense would provide opportunities for the Soviet Union and other Warsaw Pact countries to steal. Therefore, it did not require Bao Zixuan to defend it publicly, but simply asked a few questions and gave him an excellent score.
So far, Bao Zixuan has obtained all the credits from Oxford and MIT, and now has a double bachelor's degree from Oxford and MIT. This diploma will be recognized no matter where he goes. After all, the two schools have huge influence around the world.
.
Bao Zixuan has extended his study abroad time in the United States. There is nothing he can do about it. Many tasks and layouts have not yet been fully formed. Now we can only seize all the time to improve the scientific research system of Heiyun Group. There are still too few talents in Xiangjiang Polytechnic. I believe that when the university is established
Once completed, it should be able to meet some of the needs.
Originally he only planned to study for a doctorate in computer science, but when he thought about the future prospects of the communications market, Bao Zixuan also majored in communications. Fortunately, he was relatively proficient in this major in his previous life. At the same time, he planned to research and develop mobile phones, which after all is a trillion-level industry.
Big market.
Mobile Phone was first invented by the American corporate giant Motorola. On April 3, 1973, the world's first mobile phone was born at the Motorola laboratory in Manhattan, New York. The leader of the research team was Martin Cooper. The mobile phone
Birth means the beginning of a new era.
When people move from being closed to being open, passion and ideas alone are definitely not enough, they must also use tools. In 1987, Mobile Phone entered China, and it undoubtedly became an important tool to accelerate people's information communication and social interaction. When mobile phones first entered the mainland,
, there is a strange name called "Big Brother". This is actually a homophony of the title of gang leader in Hong Kong and Guangdong. Gangs generally call the small boss Big Brother, and the leading boss is naturally called "Big Brother". It is said that the mobile phone has this
The name comes from the fact that the movie star Sammo Hung was the first person in Hong Kong to own a mobile phone. When he was a director on the set, he never left his mobile phone and often used it to give orders. Sammo Hung was originally a big brother-level figure in the Hong Kong film industry, and others respectfully called him "Sammo Hung".
He is called Big Brother. Because there were so many photos of him holding a mobile phone in the newspaper, the Hong Kong media simply used the term "Big Brother" to refer to mobile phones, and the name became popular. Regardless of whether this source is true or not, the three words "Big Brother" carry
The message is clear. In that era, it was a symbol of identity, status and wealth. For Chinese people who not long ago thought that "upstairs, downstairs, lights and telephones" were communism, the shock it brought was inevitable.
. This is not only because of its expensiveness, but also because of the magic of high technology it displays.
According to the historical development trajectory, Motorola mobile phones will not be launched on the market until 1983. Martin Cooper is still competing with other groups, which is a target that can be won over.
If Bao Zixuan wants to develop a business on mobile phones, poaching Martin Cooper from Black Cloud will definitely be very effective; however, it may not be that easy. And with Bao Zixuan’s understanding of the mobile phone market, he can avoid many detours in the future.
Even if we enter the intelligent era, we will not fall behind.
It is Bao Zixuan's character to just do what he says. Since he has decided to make a mobile phone, he must execute it. Bao Zixuan decided to go to Chicago and the Motorola headquarters. He wanted all the technical information about mobile phones. Motorola was not as powerful as in his previous life.
, you must know that at the peak of his previous life, he planned such a wild plan as the "Iridium Project".
After receiving Heiyun Group's request for mobile phone business negotiations, Motorola quickly responded. After all, Heiyun Group is now a popular company, and many companies may not even bother to contact them. Now they can actually contact Motorola. This is for
Endorsed by Motorola.
Robert Calvin is the current leader of Motorola. He is the son of Paul Calvin. It can be said that he is a veritable rich second generation, different from other rich second generations. Robert Calvin has demonstrated his outstanding performance since he was a child.
A shrewd business leader, it was under his hands that Motorola reached its peak in his previous life.
Nowadays, the other party will definitely pay special attention to the mobile phone, and it is unrealistic to buy it. However, I believe Motorola will not refuse if they exchange patents with each other. After all, Heiyun has many patents that everyone is jealous of.
Robert Calvin found Martin Cooper, the father of mobile phones. He wanted to know the current progress of mobile phones and when they would be commercially available. He was full of confidence in this product with broad prospects in the future. However, he also wanted to know about the many patents held by Heiyun.
I'm also very interested. At this time, it depends on everyone's individual conditions.
Robert Calvin said to Martin Cooper: "Martin, how far is the research and development of mobile phones at present and when will it be commercially available? I am very confident about this product. Now Heiyun Bao Zixuan wants to discuss the mobile phone issue with us.
Negotiation, so I want to hear your opinion."
"After all, Bao Zixuan's vision is very accurate. The success of digital cameras, laptops, game consoles and other products is the best compliment to him. Now that he is interested in mobile phones, it proves that mobile phones have a bright future. Even better than Motorola expected.
Otherwise, Heiyun Group wouldn’t be able to negotiate with such a big fanfare.”
Martin Cooper: "Boss, it can only be used around the laboratory now. It will take a while before it can be commercialized. I think it will take about three years to overcome the technical difficulties. The current operation of the equipment is very unstable and the signal coverage is very poor."
Hearing Martin Cooper say this, Robert Calvin was thinking deeply in his heart, thinking about how to maximize Motorola's interests in this negotiation.
After a while, Robert Calvin said: "Martin, what impact will it have on us if we let the black cloud join in?"
Martin Cooper: "Actually, it's not necessarily a bad thing to bring in the black cloud. To achieve the effect of mobile phones, you need to build a large number of base stations, which is a very expensive project. In a city like Chicago alone, we need to build more than 10 base stations.
, Only in this way can the signal be fully covered.”
"The cost of a base station is about 300,000 U.S. dollars, not counting land use costs. If the total cost of a base station is about 500,000 U.S. dollars, and the number of these base stations expands to the world, then our financial resources simply cannot support it.
Get up. I thought about cooperating with a telephone operating company in the past, but if Heiyun Group joins now, it will greatly improve the entire project."
"Although they have not been established for a long time, their financial strength is stronger than Motorola. Although it does not seem like an admission, it is a generally recognized fact."
After hearing Martin Cooper's introduction, Robert Calvin had ideas and decisions in his mind. It was not a bad idea to let Heiyun enter the mobile phone market. The key now is how much benefit he should get from Heiyun in this negotiation.
Before Bao Zixuan went to Motorola, he discussed with Larry Brown's legal team the maximum price that Heiyun could pay to obtain mobile phone technology and patent licensing. After all, if the price is too high, the gain will outweigh the loss. It is not impossible to develop new research by oneself, but there are many patents.
Barriers are not easily broken down.
Both parties are calculating how to maximize their interests, and it can be said that they both need each other. Bao Zixuan needs mobile phone technology and patent authorization, and Motorola hopes to get more oil from the fat piece of Heiyun Group.
Although the purposes of both parties are not pure, their starting point is to hope to promote this cooperation. This is the prerequisite and necessary condition for achieving cooperation, and at least they are unified on this point.
