Reinventing the Millennium

Industry meetings continue.

But in Fang Zhuo's eyes, it has completed its mission ahead of schedule.

He and Larry each showed the possibility, and after a brief confrontation, they quickly reached a tacit consensus on such an occasion.

No need, no need.

One is that there is no need to work hard to maintain the four alliances, and even try to introduce Nokia, the dominant player in the mobile phone market, with all the difficulties.

One is that there is no need to continue to increase prices, and at the same time, the position of hardware manufacturers in the future ecological promotion of mobile phone systems must be considered.

Competition is already turning vicious when industry conferences are organized and Nokia's vice president is invited.

Let's end it here.

Samsung Electronics President Lee Ki-tae was still talking about Samsung's philosophy on the stage.

Yu Hong noticed her boss's thinking look and asked softly: "Mr. Fang, are you thinking about how to cheat Google?"

Fang Zhuo reprimanded a little angrily: "Let's just say, can you, can you not think that I am so bad?"

Yu Hong nodded and asked again: "Are you thinking about cooperation and competition with Google?"

Fang Zhuo was more receptive to such questions and shook his head slightly: "I haven't thought too much about Google. That will happen after the Android system goes smoothly. This time it is not so much about choosing Android as it is about choosing Google."

He added: "Although Larry didn't make it clear, Samsung may have really changed. We need to finalize this matter today to avoid trouble in the future."

A contract written in black and white can be torn up, let alone a vague tacit understanding between two people.

"A three-party meeting was originally needed, and today is a good time." Yu Hong suggested.

Fang Zhuo feels the same way.

Now we need a platform to finalize the most suitable cooperation.

Lee Ki-tae of Samsung Electronics finished his speech and bowed down.

Stringer, the new head of Sony Group, squinted for a while and then walked onto the stage in high spirits. Speaking of which, today is the first time he has spoken in public since taking over Sony.

Fang Zhuo still didn't listen to the speech. He took out his mobile phone and communicated directly with Rubin from Android and Larry from Google. After the meeting, they decided to go to the conference room together to discuss a better way of cooperation with Android Company.

After both of them agreed, he notified Li Jitae and Sandel of the news.

Industrial meetings are temporary, and so are tripartite meetings.

Sandel was inevitably a little dissatisfied when he received the text message notification on his mobile phone. He suddenly discovered that Yi Kefangzhuo, the weakest one, seemed to have been playing a big role - who is the leader of the alliance?

When Li Jitai saw the text message, he immediately took a look at the two founders of Google. He felt that today was a good occasion to openly announce Samsung's withdrawal - from today on, there will no longer be a four-company alliance!

Stringer only saw Mr. Fang's notice after he came down from the stage to give a speech. He didn't feel anything at all, and he didn't even bother to analyze the changes - anyway, the cooperation between Sony and Yike is unbreakable.

At six o'clock in the evening, the industry meeting came to an end. After the meal, guests from Silicon Valley gave speeches on stage.

However, a reporter keenly discovered that big bosses from Motorola, Samsung and other companies all went to the conference room on the second floor.

The reporter wanted to follow him with his camera, but was firmly stopped outside.

She made several phone calls but failed to find any connection. In the blink of an eye, she found that Nokia's executive vice president Andreessen had also been stopped.

"Mr. Anderson, why are you here?" The reporter pointed to the direction of the conference room, thinking that the Nokia executive should be inside.

Anderson also looked confused: "I don't know. I saw Stringer, Li Jitai, and Sandel all coming here, and I thought there were additional things to discuss."

The stopped reporter and Anderson looked at each other.

In the conference room not far away, the atmosphere was quite calm. People from Google and the four alliances were drinking tea and coffee in silence.

Android's Rubin thinks this is the calm before the competition between the two sides.

He first expressed his position: "The development of the Android system is very effective. I believe that open source Android can set off a wave in the industry."

No one answered.

Rubin felt a little strange and continued: "Whether it's Google or hardware manufacturers, we all like Android..."

Lee Ki-tae of Samsung Electronics interrupted: “I don’t think four manufacturers acquiring Android companies together is something that can produce long-term benefits!”

The expected earth-shattering surprise did not appear.

Still no one answered.

In fact, Li Jitai only saw the expression on Sandel's face, and Sandel was disdainful!

what's the situation?

Have these three companies communicated in advance and stood together?

Li Jitai swallowed back the organized words in astonishment.

Google's Larry and Sergey both stood aside and watched. Samsung Electronics really jumped out. However, Mr. Fang also expressed his cooperation in a timely manner. So... if the current situation can be handled satisfactorily, then of course it is still Choose Mr. Fang.

The conference room was quiet for a while.

Sandel realized that he was the leader of the alliance and sarcastically said: "Your Samsung's ethics are just like your Samsung mobile phones, which can't come up with new things. What do you mean? Do you want to cooperate with Google?"

Li Jitai had long been fed up with the arrogance of the CEO of his rival Motorola. He originally considered being within the scope of the four alliances, but now that the words came out, he had no scruples and sneered: "Motorola can come up with new things, how long will it take? Is half a year enough for you?"

"Are business decisions a matter of will? Samsung is fully capable of acquiring Android companies on its own, and will seriously consider the possibility of partnerships."

He said word for word: "However, Samsung will never acquire Android together with the short-sighted Motorola!"

Sandel laughed loudly: "What you Li Jitai said today is more beautiful than what you said in the past few days. Is this a battle of wills? This is the most basic code of conduct in business. Ignore everyone's communication and focus on your own business." By saying this, is this all Samsung Electronics is doing?”

Except for Stringer and Fang Zhuo, everyone in the conference room was surprised by the exchange of words between Sandel and Li Jitai.

Boom, boom, boom.

Fang Zhuo knocked on the table with his cell phone: "Do you want to make a noise here? Since Samsung Electronics is not willing to act with us, then you can just leave."

Lee Ki-tae only looked at Rubin and Larry.

Both Rubin and Larry kept quiet, not wanting to antagonize potential hardware partners.

Lee Ki-tae won’t leave.

However, Sandel stood up: "I don't want to talk with such people."

He walked out and planned to continue discussing the acquisition next time.

Fang Zhuo frowned slightly and did not say anything to persuade him to stay. Goodbye, Leader Sang. I will look for you next time when I am short of leader.

Samsung rebounded and Motorola left the market.

The four alliances that originally competed with Google have actually fallen apart quickly, less than ten minutes after the three parties took their seats.

Seeing this, Larry said something.

"The Android system requires the joint efforts of all of us, including research and development and hardware cooperation."

He did not take advantage of the situation to directly attract Android companies, but reiterated cooperation from the perspective of business ecology.

Lee Ji-tae believes that Google is referring to himself.

But before he opened his mouth, he heard Fang Zhuo's voice.

"Larry, Rubin, it's time to end it. We at Yike and Sony are willing to work with Google to promote the development of Android."

Seeing that he didn't even mention Samsung, Li Jitai raised his voice and said, "Why?"

Fang Zhuo glanced at this person and gave the answer: "2 is greater than 1."

There are only three left.

Google is willing to accept cooperation, so naturally Sony + Yike is greater than Samsung.
