Chapter 314 One peach kills three people
On the Dongling Hi-Tech side, some restrictions have been made in advance for domestic companies such as UTStarcom, Amoi, and BBK that are allowed to produce PHS.
PHS products produced by Starcom, Amoi, BBK and other companies can be allowed to be sold in China, but if they want to be sold abroad, they need the consent of Tanglin Hi-Tech!
This is something that Dongling Hi-tech is keeping a close eye on. There are many companies producing PHS, and most of them will be involved in domestic involution and engage in price wars, which will also benefit domestic users. Dongling Hi-tech can accept this and treat it as Cultivate the domestic mobile phone market.
But if due to involution and price war, the overseas mobile phone market is also disrupted, and overseas markets such as Japan, Siam, Malaysia, and Brazil are cheaper, then Tanglin Hi-Tech will not be willing!
However, although Amoi, BBK, Starcom, etc. are not allowed to enter overseas markets at the moment, the more users abroad who use PHS, the more beneficial it will be for them. If they cannot export overseas now, it does not mean that they will not be able to in the future. !
Just like the current domestic PHS market, Tanglin Hi-Tech was not the only one before, but now, faced with a serious shortage of production capacity, coupled with the emergence of counterfeit PHS manufacturers, there are signs that , Donglin High-tech still released the authority to produce PHS, although the commission for PHS produced by Amoi, Starcom and other companies is very serious...
But the news about PHS overseas , after all, it has made many domestic PHS manufacturers also have expectations. If they can export one day, they will earn foreign exchange!
Companies that can earn foreign exchange are now at the top of the industry in China. They can get large loans from banks, enjoy tax refund policies, and be cultivated as key companies by the local city government. Which company? I don’t want such treatment!
Two major events in the domestic technology industry are both related to Tanglin Hi-Tech. The first event is that PHS received a large overseas order.
The second thing is that Dongling Hi-Tech, the company that invented the Shenzhou USB flash drive, publicly announced that it would only license USB flash drive patents to five companies globally!
That is to say, in the future, only five companies in the world, including Donglin Hi-Tech itself, will be allowed to produce USB flash drive products within at least 20 years of the USB flash drive patent held by Tanglin Hi-Tech.
As soon as this news came out, the technology industry was almost in an uproar. Not only domestic, but also foreign companies that were ready to take advantage of USB flash drives were also hit in the face.
Although the reason given by Donglin Hi-Tech is to provide users with U disks with higher technical content for the healthy development of the U disk industry, to avoid the proliferation of shoddy U disks and causing users to suffer losses, etc. , but who in the technology industry can’t tell that Donglin Hi-Tech has joined forces with four other companies to form an alliance that will reap U disk dividends and prevent other companies from getting involved in this industry.
As soon as the news came out, the domestic manufacturers of Luwen Yipan, Acer, Patriot, and Lenovo who were working overtime to imitate Shenzhou USB flash drives have not yet spoken out. Foreign SanDisk, Kingston, Toshiba, and Sony , Samsung, Hebrew Systems, Singapore Trek, and a bunch of other companies that wanted to produce USB flash drives, they just blew up.
Donglin Hi-tech's move is obviously to cut off their opportunity to enter the USB flash drive industry and earn dividends. How can these companies be willing to do so!
The president of SanDisk directly criticized Donglin Hi-Tech in the media, "Dongli Hi-Tech is completely taking advantage of Donglin Hi-Tech's patent advantage in the USB flash drive industry and wants to monopolize the entire USB flash drive industry!"
“We must launch a class action lawsuit against Tanglin Hi-Tech. I think it should be Hebrew, Arab The United States, Europe and other places should launch antitrust investigations into Shenzhou USB flash drives, and even ban Tanglin Hi-Tech from selling Shenzhou USB flash drives in these regions!”
Hebrew Systems is even more demanding! , directly through the Hebrew and American media, and should directly target Tanglin Hi-Tech.
Other companies, especially small and medium-sized memory manufacturers, are constantly clamoring and clamoring, threatening to sue Dongling Hi-Tech for antitrust. These small and medium-sized memory manufacturers understand that if there are only five companies in the world, they can produce U disk, then giant companies will definitely get the opportunity, and it will not be their turn to take advantage.
But regardless of how companies in the memory industry reacted, Tanglin Hi-Tech quickly announced companies willing to license U disk patents.
Before, Bienwei Company took away a quota for U disk production from Dongling Hi-Tech. Tanglin Hi-Tech occupied one quota, and only three companies were left with the remaining quota!
Tanglin Hi-Tech subsequently announced that it would authorize the third quota of U disk production patents to IBM, the old American technology giant!
Dongli Hi-Tech announced that as long as IBM wants to produce USB flash drives and is willing to reach a corresponding agreement with Tanglin Hi-Tech, it can produce USB flash drives.
To be honest, IBM was surprised when it heard the news. It did not expect that Tanglin Hi-Tech would give it this quota.
But IBM responded quickly. Although it didn't know what conditions Dongling wanted, it quickly announced that it was willing to develop the USB flash drive industry with Dongling Hi-tech, and quickly sent IBM executives in mainland China to contact Dongling Hi-tech.
Although IBM is a giant company with a century-old history, and it is arrogant, this does not mean that IBM can be arrogant about the US dollars sent to the door. Especially the current IBM President Gerard Gerstner, for the mainland market Very seriously.
U disk will be a dividend market in the future. Everyone knows this. Now Tanglin Hi-Tech has restricted only five companies to produce this thing. As long as you get the quota, you can make money in the future. Earning hundreds of millions of dollars a year, or even more than a billion dollars, is not difficult at all. How could IBM give up!
After IBM, Tanglin High-tech unexpectedly gave the fourth USB flash drive quota to the European OEM giant Antarctic, no, it was the Philips Group! The current Philips Group is not the OEM giant nicknamed the European version of Antarctica. It still has its own operations, especially in the field of medical equipment. It is still very promising. More than ten years ago, the predecessor of ASML lithography machine , it was through joining forces with Philips and getting the first pot of gold from Philips that the current Philips came into being.
In addition, TSMC, which is rushing towards the global chip foundry king, was also cultivated by Philips. Philips used patents, technology, and orders in the early stage to help TSMC gain a firm foothold.
Except for these two companies, NXP, the automotive chip giant in the previous life, was formerly the semiconductor department of Philips. In terms of R&D strength, to be honest, Philips at this time was killing all its opponents.
If the story only ends here, then Philips will still be the Royal Philips, the crown jewel of European technology, with ASML, TSMC and NXP in its hands, then Philips will definitely have a place in the history of global technology in the future. Even if it's an OEM, the OEM fee is a bit more expensive than other brands.
But this is Philips. In later generations, it started to play OEM, and it was even more exaggerated than the Antarctic people. From electrical appliances to skin care products, to mobile phones, driving recorders, etc., without Philips it would be impossible. Dare to put up a sign.
The person at Pangajiao sold Philips mobile phones and made 28 million in one night. He just didn’t know that those buyers who ordered Gazi’s fake wine bought back “big brands” "What kind of experience will you have with the Philips mobile phone?
The reason why Donglin High-tech gave the fourth USB flash drive quota to Philips is naturally because it wants to use Philips' influence and strength in Europe to safeguard the profits of Shenzhou USB flash drives in Europe.
A skinny camel is bigger than a horse, not to mention that Philips is not cool yet. With Philips coming forward, those brands that dare to produce USB flash drives without Tanglin Hi-Tech’s authorization, don’t even think about selling them in Europe. Sell it out.
Choosing IBM also has the same meaning. If there is only one company, Bienwei may not be able to take care of the patent of U disk in North America. Add in the old gangsters in the technology industry, the famous trouble maker IBM , that’s totally different.
As a veteran in the technology industry, IBM has never seen anything like this, and it is easy to deal with ordinary copycat pirated USB flash drive manufacturers.
Winning IBM and Philips on board, apart from the fact that they can help Tanglin Hi-tech to protect the USB flash drive patent in Tanglin Hi-tech's hands from being infringed by some companies with ulterior motives, Tanglin Hi-tech actually chooses When these two companies cooperate, they also choose Bienwei.
They all want to obtain hard drive technology and patents from IBM and Philips. IBM is the first company in the world to experiment with solid-state drives, and it has quite rich technical reserves in this area.
Philips is an expert in semiconductors. If it can get help from Philips, then Tanglin Hi-Tech's chances of developing a solid-state drive will naturally be much greater!
There are not a few companies that can see Dongling Hi-tech's method of play. After all, it is almost a well-known brand. If Donglin Hi-tech is alone, then SanDisk and other companies are not afraid of infringing on Donglin Hi-tech. U disk patent.
It’s just an Asian continental company. So what if they infringe the law? What can Tangling Hi-Tech do to them? What are their plans? Tanglin Hi-Tech sues one by one. Even if they win the lawsuit, the most they can pay is a small amount. Hundreds of millions of dollars, and then I can continue to sell USB flash drives. Compared with the profit from selling USB flash drives, the small amount of fine is not painful at all.
But when Donglin Hi-tech brings in companies such as Beenway, IBM, and Philips, the situation will be different. The four companies joining forces will definitely make it difficult for any company to go around. , but it’s not as simple as being fined and compensated. Maybe not a single USB flash drive produced can be sold in America, North America, or Europe!
By this time, SanDisk, Toshiba, Samsung, Sony, Kingston and other companies no longer want to scold Tanglin Hi-Tech, because there is only one quota left to produce USB flash drives. If they can't grab the quota, they will have to Being blocked from the U disk industry!
There is no need for Dongling Hi-Tech to do anything else. A group of memory companies have started to fight among themselves for the last U disk quota. Which of these companies is willing to spend more than a billion dollars a year in the future, or even Give up more profitable business?
For a time, a group of companies such as SanDisk and Toshiba, which had scolded Donglin Hi-Tech very harshly, sent people to Hanxi in a hurry, trying to grab the last USB flash drive quota and rebel against Donglin. The Ling Hi-tech Alliance has not yet been formed, and it has just disbanded due to internal strife like a bunch of chickens and dogs!
……
“Donngling Hi-Tech doesn’t want to become the Daewoo Company of Hanxi?”
In Pingyang, Hanxi, Zhou Weikun, president of IBM's mainland region, came to the headquarters of Dongling Hi-Tech and asked Li Dongling curiously. He was also looking at the founder of a rising technology star company in mainland China and even Asia.
