[Today, I brought my child to my mother-in-law's house and came back late, so there are only two chapters. To express my apologies, I'll update it tomorrow. Is everyone satisfied?]
It was impossible to buy Daqian phones for 1.5 billion USD. There was no way Mr. Cui, Lee Zailong, and Lee Jiankang would agree to it.
"That's a pity!" Boss Jia shook his head and said, "This is a company with a market value of trillions of USD in the future. It's such a pity that you don't want to sell it!"
"How can your stupid phone company have a market value of trillions of USD? I'll chop off my head and give it to you like a ball!" Mr. Cui cursed in his heart, ignoring Boss Jia's nonsense.
Of course, after a decade or so, Mr. Cui would have to think about how to chop off his head to make it look rounder. On the other hand, whenever Li Jiankang recalled that he had the opportunity to buy the Da Qian Mobile Phone with 1.5 billion USD, he would beat his chest and stomp his feet in regret.
Therefore, Mr. Cui worked as an executive for the rest of his life. This despicable guy, why didn't he have the guts to go against me and make his own decision to buy Daqian phones for 1.5 billion USD?
Lee Jiankang hated Mr. Cui for the rest of his life.
"If that's the case, then I'll take my leave!" Back to the topic at hand, Cui Zhangjiang had already felt that it was impossible for Da Qian to sell their mobile phone business. It would be useless even if he tried to persuade them. Hence, he decided to leave. He didn't want to stay in Da Qian for a moment longer.
However, to Mr. Cui's surprise, Boss Jia smiled and asked him to stay. Then, he said, "Forgive me for being blunt, but the reason why Samsung wants to buy Daqian's mobile phone business is because they are interested in our Daqian phones' cost control ability!"
"This guy is quite self-aware!" Mr. Cui snorted, then nodded. If Samsung was not interested in the Daqian phones' high production cost, why would they want to buy Daqian phones? Could it be that they could see the Daqian phones' scientific research ability?
In terms of scientific research, a hundred Daqian phones would not be a match for Samsung. Mr. Cui was that confident.
"If that's the case, then there's no need for Samsung to acquire Daqian's mobile phone business!" Boss Jia smiled. "If Samsung Group is also interested in entering the mobile phone industry, then you can hand over the production of mobile phones to our Daqian Group. Our Daqian Group will definitely give Samsung a price that they can't refuse!"
"I'll be your OEM!" Manager Cui was stunned for a moment. After thinking about it carefully, it didn't seem impossible.
After careful calculations, Samsung Group realized that if they were to produce their own mobile phones, the cost would be about the same as Nokia's. As long as Daqian works for Samsung at the same price as Nokia, Samsung can earn an extra 1,000 USD per phone. What is there to be dissatisfied with?
"Don't worry. We will pay Samsung the same price as we paid Nokia. We are honest!" Boss Jia saw that Cui Zhangxing was deep in thought and immediately made a guarantee.
"Why is this guy so eager to be Samsung's OEM?" Manager Cui looked at Boss Jia strangely, then couldn't help but ask curiously, "Mr. Jia, aren't you afraid that after Samsung enters the mobile phone industry, it will have an impact on Daqian's mobile phone business and compete with your market?"
"Of course not. Only with sufficient competition can the industry develop better!" Boss Jia said in a bureaucratic tone. Manager Cui was speechless. Only an idiot would believe such words!
However, the next second, Boss Jia smiled and said, "I don't know if Manager Cui wants to hear the truth?"
"…" Cui Zhangxing felt as if he had been punched. After being stunned for a long time, he asked helplessly, "What is the truth?"
"The truth is that if I don't work for you, you will produce your own phones. You can't avoid competition anyway. Why don't you earn the money first?" Boss Jia laughed and said, "Besides, Samsung's mobile phones are no match for Daqian's mobile phones. If you enter the mobile phone industry, it will be a waste of money!"
"This guy …" Manager Cui was so angry that his teeth were itching. However, he was basically sure that Boss Jia was telling the truth.
Of course, Manager Cui still couldn't make the decision when it came to OEM. He could only report to Li Jiankang after communicating fully with Boss Jia.
Naturally, Manager Cui told Li Jiankang the truth about Boss Jia's words.
"This arrogant guy!" Li Jiankang grinned and said, "Okay, sign this OEM contract with him."
What a joke. The cost of each mobile phone could be reduced by nearly 1,000 USD. Only a fool wouldn't sign this contract. In the future, he would use Daqian's own mobile phones to defeat Daqian's mobile phones. Then, he would make Daqian's mobile phones his own OEM. How angry he was now would be how happy he would be in the future.
Hence, Manager Cui, on behalf of Samsung, signed another OEM contract with Daqian. In the future, all the production work of Samsung's mobile phones would be handed over to Daqian. This news made Leng Xuxin grin. He already had enough business in Heavenly Star. Now, Boss Jia actually found a new business for him. It seemed that he had to build a few new factories and get a few sets of new equipment.
He had no choice. He was too busy.
Although the OEM contract with Samsung had been signed, Samsung's mobile phones would not arrive so soon. After all, Samsung's mobile phones were still being finalized in the research and development room. It was not clear if it could be released this year.
However, another big event for Daqian was coming soon.
That was the finals of the Daqian Pokemon International Championship, which would be held in Yuzhang. At the same time, it was also the day of the first WCG.
At this time, the Pokemon International Championship had been completed in 11 cities around the world. It would be held in the last city, which was Yuzhang City.
After the championship ended, there was no need to wait for another month. In three days, the WCG would be held directly. Then, in the afternoon of the opening ceremony, there would be a global finals, which would kick off the five-day WCG competition schedule.
Well, the WCG could only be held for five days. There was no other way. The number of games was not enough, and the number of viewers was not high either.

The people of Yuzhang swore that they had never seen so many foreigners in their own city. Since the beginning of May, the people of Yuzhang noticed that there were suddenly many foreigners on the streets.
At first, they thought that they were lucky to meet one or two foreigners. However, on the 10th of May, no matter which street they walked on, they would see one or two foreigners passing by every few minutes. Then, they started to feel that something was wrong.
