Rebirth of the 92 Business Tycoon - v6 Chapter 850
“Please,” all the opponents haha and walked in. Cummins whispered to Charlie Kidd. “When I look at his smile, I feel that we are all lambs to be slaughtered.”
Apple’s Jeff Williams listened quietly to the two of them muttering. At this moment, his heart said, you don’t need to be slaughtered. It would be nice if you don’t come.
Kiddle nodded, and Cummins immediately turned to Jeff Williams, “Jeff, what do you think?”
I said… I want to say I am a mallet. Doesn’t that mean I’m eavesdropping on your conversation? “What?” He pretended not to understand.
“Hehe, nothing,” Cummins just smiled.
Just at the shamelessness of Williams, this time he and Kiddle are definitely not so easy.
“I hope you all had a good rest last night, ha ha,” George Riddle laughed again.
He doesn’t want to be like this. He really doesn’t want to be too proud. He knows very well that it’s not good to be like this at this time.
But I just can’t help it.
To say, it was too long.
These few days, from bankruptcy in 2009 to the present, they feel the most comfortable days.
He also believes that whoever encounters such a world-renowned company and rushes to send money, how can the joy in his heart be contained?
He especially looked at Williams and Cummins. Good people, if it weren’t for Apple and Android, which quickly made smart phones popular, how could their patents be so popular?
Well, Microsoft also contributed a lot, thanks to Microsoft for initiating so many patent lawsuits.
“Thank you again for coming. Today’s auction is based on Intel’s yesterday’s price of 1.5 billion US dollars, as the starting price,” George Riddle tried to make himself speak without laughing.
1.5 billion dollars!
You know, they are actually very satisfied with Android’s $900 million quotation. As patent owners, they naturally have a share price for 6,000 patents. Normally, the book value will only be 200 million US dollars. As a result, Android turned 4.5 times!
In the first round of auctions, Intel actually increased the price to 1.5 billion US dollars from the beginning!
This is so happy that they can’t believe their ears, and they have some emotions and doubts about how good money is now.
But they also know that this must not be the final result. This can be seen from the faces of the guys who participated in the auction today. Yesterday’s local tyrant Intel is quite calm today, but the other three parties, whose faces are not Holding the heart of winning?
This is good!
I hope you will increase the price even harder.
Will it directly rise above 2 billion US dollars from the start today?
He is looking forward to it!
“At the same time, considering the starting price, this round of auctions, each increase in price must not be less than 50 million US dollars,” he said, looking at everyone with a trembling smile.
“So, if there are no other questions, we will start now!”
As soon as he sat down, the Apple team gestured, “1.55 billion U.S. dollars,”
George Riddle repeated it, and the smile on his face faded a bit. To be honest, he was a little disappointed. You are Apple, holding more than US$50 billion in your hand, and you have also encountered multiple patent lawsuits. Apple needs this patent.
But the first time you quoted, you only added 50 million US dollars, so stingy!
He looked at Intel. You were very brave and proud yesterday. We are optimistic about you!
But Intel is very calm at this time, or in other words, a little indifferent.
Could it be that you guys, what you did yesterday turned out to be an idea to scare away other bidders in one fell swoop?
He looked at the alliance headed by BlackBerry. I know that your hardware business is falling sharply. Therefore, you need these patents very much to strengthen your ability to profit through intellectual property rights, and you can get back from the government afterwards. A lot of subsidies come, so…?
He immediately turned his gaze away. If there are more members in an alliance, it is troublesome. The minimum price increase is 50 million US dollars, and you have to discuss it.
In fact, he also knows that this is mainly due to the fact that the BlackBerry is smaller and the money is too small compared to the other three parties.
He just glanced at the alliance between Android and Microsoft, just to see Microsoft’s Charlie Kidd looking at Cummins next to him a little strangely, do you have to discuss it?
He was wondering if his previous forecast was a bit too optimistic, he saw Cummins smile, and Kidd immediately lowered his head.
How is this going? Do you still have conflicts?
He then repeated Cummins’ offer, “1.9 billion…”
He was overjoyed all of a sudden, adding to 1.9 billion, bullish!
This is what a company like you should have.
But he was a little embarrassed afterwards, because he found that he could not completely repeat Cummins’ offer.
“1.9 billion 2…”
He only remembers that it was more than 2 million dollars behind, which is a bit weird.
Cummins repeated it again with a smile, and speaking slowly, George Riddle took the note handed over by the person next to him, and said, “1.921.6 million…$583!?”
He glanced at Cummins, is this your offer?
So there are wholes and zeros, and there are zero 583 dollars?
Brother, this is an auction, and your offer is more than 1.9 billion US dollars. Not to mention 2.16 million, but zero 583 US dollars?
What the **** is this?
In other words, I can represent Nortel to give this fraction to you, okay?
Cummins smiled and nodded at him, yes, this is our offer.
George Riddle suddenly understood why Microsoft’s Charlie Kidd is still bowing his head. Although thank you for raising the price to nearly 2 billion U.S. dollars, is such a price a bit unserious? Brother dei!
The other three parties were also whispering at this time. They were obviously as puzzled as Riddle, but soon, some people looked at Cummins a little strangely. What’s the matter?
The subordinate spoke to him, and George Riddle glanced at him uncertainly, then nodded.
Brown constant, what is this thing?
Okay, I really don’t appreciate the fun of you guys in science and engineering. He looks at the other parties. What numbers will you report next?
What kind of constants are accurate to single digits?
He saw that the representative of the BlackBerry Alliance had moved his mouth several times, but in the end he couldn’t laugh or cry…You guys, you can’t find a similar and close number. Is it hard to speak?
Riddle really wanted to say, this is an auction, it’s an auction, everyone!
Can you be more serious?
He followed and saw that after the three parties exchanged a few glances, Apple’s Jeff Williams actually proposed, “I suggest, this round, let’s do it first!”
“agreed, agreed!”
Hey~www.mtlnovel.com~ I said, less than 2 billion US dollars!
Riddle looked at the groups of people that Lu continued to leave. Who are these people!
…………
“What? Brown constant?” Cook frowned.
“Yes, Cummins’ offer is the Brown constant,” Jeff Williams said.
Cook looked at the numbers that appeared on the computer and couldn’t help but “tsk”. It was actually accurate to 3 dollars. What kind of nasty fun is this?
But Williams thinks differently from him. He is a little worried, “Tim, I think that Android obviously has the heart to get it, so there is such an offer.”
Cook stood up, “You are right,”
If you are not confident enough, how can you quote such a random price?
“So, do we need to adjust our strategy now?” Williams asked.
Cook paced back and forth several times. “In this way, it is necessary to make some adjustments.”
He thought for a moment, “Since BlackBerry hasn’t quoted them yet, then we can go and check their tone first.”
Cook also took a fancy to BlackBerry’s inherent advantages, and also saw the BlackBerry’s dilemma-they are the weakest, unlike the other three parties, they have money in their pockets, and they don’t panic.
“Intel, since there is no quotation today, you can also contact it,”
Speaking of it, although Apple and Intel have been cooperating again after 2005, there are too many grievances between the two of them. When cooperating on patent auctions, there will be many details to discuss. Now It may not be too late.
“Good Tim,”
Cook hung up the phone and couldn’t help but think, Feng Yiping, can you guys go a little bit more?
Or are you using this way to show contempt for my remarks yesterday?
