"But why did Microsoft's Gao Qunyao call me? What's his motive? "Yang Yuanqing continued to ponder.
"I understand. He is the new CEO, and he does not want to see Microsoft's Hua Xia's sales decline. Once the Daqian leaves, the 100 million USD licensing fees will disappear!"
"That's why they are looking for me. They must want me to replace the Daqian and pay the Daqian's licensing fees." Yang Yuanqing was smart. After thinking for a while, he figured out the problem.
Now, the problem is, should Mei Liang take over the Daqian's licensing fees?
This problem is complicated. The best outcome is for Mei Liang to not take over the licensing fees. This is because Mei Liang and Microsoft had signed a brand licensing agreement. That means Microsoft will give Mei Liang the rights to use the Windows operating system. All the PCs sold by Mei Liang in the future will be installed with the original Windows operating system.
This licensing agreement is for the entire Mei Liang, and there is no limit to the number of PCs sold.
That means Mei Liang can reject the licensing agreement and take over Xiaomi's market share. The licensing fees for the original operating system will not increase, and this is the best choice for Mei Liang.
But this choice is not without its disadvantages. After all, Mei Liang and Microsoft's licensing agreement is signed annually, and it is based on last year's sales to calculate next year's sales and set the licensing fees.
That's why Mei Liang can maintain the licensing fees this year, but it will increase next year. At most, Mei Liang can only get one year's worth of benefits.
Also, this will offend Microsoft, and the other party might want to make up for the lost profits next year. The licensing fees will be much higher than the previous year.
Mei Liang has no choice but to accept this number. This is because Mei Liang cannot leave the Windows operating system license in the official PC market.
Although Mei Liang can make profits in the short term, it is not a loss in the long term.
But Yang Yuanqing is a fool to spend so much money just to please Microsoft. His reputation in the company will be tarnished.
"So, is there a better solution?" Yang Yuanqing thought for a while. There is still half an hour left, and Yang Yuanqing feels he can think of a good solution.
Just when Yang Yuanqing is thinking hard, his secretary rushed into his office. Before Yang Yuanqing can deliver the goods, his secretary said in disbelief. "President, it's a call from the Daqian. The Daqian Company is looking for you!"
"Daqian? They are calling me!" Yang Yuanqing is stunned. he had not communicated with the Daqian for the past few years. Why did they call him????
"It's just a call from the Daqian Company. How can you be so irritable? Is Da Qian your father? " Yang Yuanqing....... Daqian Group's. Jia...... he.... He is. You. he is...... He is..... calling.
. "" Jia Yapeng is looking for me! " Yang Yuanqing staggered and sat back in his chair. He did not have the so-called decorum at all.
"Ahem!" Yang Yuanqing coughed to calm himself down. At the same time, he told himself that Jia Yapeng is just a competitor who is on the same level as him. There is no need for him to be agitated. He should communicate with Jia Yapeng in an equal tone.
After a while, Yang Yuanqing regained his composure. He waved his secretary away, took a deep breath, and answered the phone. "Mr. Jia, hello!"
"President Yang!" Jia Yapeng's cynical voice came from the phone. "I have been waiting for so long. Aren't you in the office?"
"Yes, something happened just now!" After saying this, Yang Yuanqing regretted it. Jia Yapeng is not Liu Chuanzhi. Why do I have to explain to him?
It's fine if I explain, but I have to lie. I have to tell him the truth. I just don't want to pick up Jia Yapeng's call so early. I asked him to wait. If he doesn't want to wait, he can just hang up.
"Mr. Jia, you are such a busy man. I don't think you would call me for no reason. What can I do for you?" Yang Yuanqing tried to make himself sound as imposing as possible.
"Let's reconcile!" Boss Jia said with a smile on the phone.
"Reconcile?" Yang Yuanqing was stunned again. Jia Yapeng actually took the initiative to call him and ask for reconciliation. Did the sun rise from the west? Did Da Qian finally realize how powerful Mei Liang was?
However, anyone with a discerning eye knew that Meiliang could not even defeat the Daqian's subsidiary company, Xiaomi Computer, let alone the whole Daqian Group. How could the Daqian be afraid of him? He took the initiative to reconcile.
However, the problem was that the Daqian actually took the initiative to reconcile, and Jia Yapeng personally called him. This treatment was sincere enough.
"Mr. Jia, when did Meiliang declare war on the Daqian? There is no need for us to reconcile! "Yang Yuanqing thought for a while, then answered.
This answer was actually very clever, because it actually had some meanings.
The first meaning was that Meiliang and the Daqian had never declared war, so there was no need for them to reconcile. They were still good friends, which was equivalent to agreeing to reconcile.
The second meaning was that since they had never declared war, there was no need for them to reconcile. Everyone should do what they should do as usual. This meant that Boss Jia's words were nonsense!
As for which one to choose between the two meanings, it was up to Yang Yuanqing himself.
"President Yang, we are all people of Hua Xia, and we are all enterprises of Hua Xia. No matter how much we didn't get along before, we should still stand together on the issue of who is the real opponent!"
"The Windows system now occupies 99% of Hua Xia's market. This is unreasonable. Our Hua Xia should have our own operating system, so I sincerely hope that Meiliang can give up on the Windows system like our Daqian and switch to our Hongmeng system!" Boss Jia said calmly.
"This fellow has finally revealed his true intentions!" Yang Yuanqing suddenly realized why the Daqian had taken the initiative to reconcile with him. It turned out that they wanted to use the system.
Currently, Xiaomi and Meiliang occupied more than 90% of the entire branded computer market. In other words, if the two companies gave up on the Windows system at the same time and switched to the Hongmeng system, they could almost instantly destroy the Windows system's hegemony in Hua Xia, and the Hongmeng system could take advantage of this opportunity to rise.
Even if they couldn't change the system of the old computers, all the new computers would be based on the Hongmeng system, which would completely change the face of Hua Xia's market.
"Jia Yapeng really has a good plan. He thinks that he can get the entire market with just a settlement. He is too arrogant!" Yang Yuanqing's face became even angrier and more indignant after he thought it through.
