After hearing this, Ye Chen suddenly realized that this was obviously using the patent authorization to raise the price!
If the price were a little more reasonable and higher, I would have turned a blind eye and passed it by. This price is worth tens of millions. Everyone would want to be the second mother of the sun, right?
Throughout the morning, the few of them could not reach an agreement at all, and finally broke up on bad terms. County Magistrate Yu had no choice but to send Ye Chen to the door of the county office building.
"Mr. Ye, this factory, if you think more about patent licensing, you will definitely not lose money!"
County Magistrate Yu said.
After saying that, County Magistrate Yu came closer and whispered: "I heard that Mr. Ye and other CEOs of electronic companies are not very easy to deal with. This patent licensing matter can save you a lot of trouble!"
"I won't bother you with this. I'll think about it first. Anyway, I have nothing to do during this period, so I'll just stay here and think about it before I come to visit you again."
After Ye Chen finished speaking, he got in the car and left.
After Ye Chen's car drove away, County Magistrate Yu and his party regained their expressions.
"County Chief Yu, the actual price of the factory is only 200 million. 280 million is too high. No one will take advantage of this!"
Mr. Sun said anxiously, "The machines we have are still quite advanced now, but they will fall behind in a few years. By then, let alone 200 million, it will be hard to sell even if they are discounted in half!"
"impossible!"
County Magistrate Yu said angrily, "So much money has been thrown into this factory. If it is sold for 200 million, the county government will lose nearly 20 million. This price is not something you and I can afford!"
After hearing this, Mr. Sun only wanted to scold his mother, but due to the other party's status, he could only remain silent.
He was a businessman and his business was losing money, so he could just sell it. However, because the county government refused to sell it for less than 280 million, the factory had been idle for a long time.
You must know that machines are constantly iteratively updated. After a few years, the machines will fall behind and the factory technology will be worthless!
But his arms couldn't twist his thighs, and he couldn't persuade County Magistrate Yu, so he could only leave in a sulk.
There is nothing that County Magistrate Yu can do. He took the lead in joining this factory, and now that it has been compensated, he must bear full responsibility.
He is already in his forties. If he stumbles on this matter, he will have no hope of moving forward in his life.
Therefore, he tried his best to keep the price stable, but he also knew in his heart that this was not a long-term solution!
Just then, the county secretary came back.
"County Magistrate, I went here to inquire about Ye Chen. He poached Lenovo's chief engineer Xu Zhiyuan. He scolded many state-owned enterprises in public at the Shenzhen Electronic Technology Conference and poached many of their people."
"So, his relationship with other electronics companies is indeed not good?"
County Magistrate Yu said thoughtfully.
"It's very bad. It is said that state-owned enterprises such as Skyworth and Changhong have secretly joined forces with some private companies, such as Lenovo, Dayinke, etc., to block technology and will never license patents to them!"
County Magistrate Yu was very happy after hearing this!
If you're in the electronics industry and don't have patent authorization, it's impossible to do it. You can't just start research and development before you start selling!
By the time you're done, the day lilies will have been cold for a long time.
"Also, the county magistrate, I heard that Ye Chen is very willing to spend money on this. He has hundreds of millions of funds in his hands and is clamoring to lead China's electronics industry. Judging from his behavior, he is indeed planning to do big things.
"
After hearing this, County Magistrate Yu became more confident. Isn't such a person sent by God to help him?
He originally thought that if it didn't work, he would lower the price a little. After all, fewer and fewer people were willing to buy it, so he couldn't let it happen to him!
But judging from Ye Chen's current situation, as long as he takes control of the patent licensing issue, he won't be afraid that the other party won't buy it!
Thinking of this, County Magistrate Yu returned to his office happily.
Ye Chen also arrived at the hotel, looking a little ugly.
"The price of this factory is so high. If you don't know better, you might think it's some big high-tech factory!"
Jia Hui said angrily.
Hearing this, Ye Chen sighed, "They must have investigated me before and knew that my relationship with other electronic state-owned enterprises was not good, so they knew for sure that I would not be able to obtain their patent authorization, and then used this matter to blackmail me."
"Then why can he get it?
Is this how Lenovo sells their face?”
"It should be a contract issue. At that time, Lenovo invested money just to test the waters and buy some shares. However, it did not participate in the operation and had no decision-making or voting rights. Therefore, Lenovo did not need to agree to sell the factory. It only took the money."
“Can Lenovo do this kind of thing?
You hold 70% of the shares, but you still don’t have voting rights?”
Jia Hui didn't believe it.
"Previously in the car, County Magistrate Yu said that their contract was written like this. Lenovo exchanged its operating rights and voting rights for more shares, and as long as the factory has not been sold, Mr. Sun and County Magistrate Yu can renew the patent contract.
Authorized.”
"I see."
Jia Hui nodded, "Now County Magistrate Yu may be thinking that if we agree to the acquisition, before signing the contract, he will come forward to find the other party to renew the patent license, and then transfer the factory and the factory to us."
"That's it, but the problem is, the price is too high."
"Then what should we do now?"
"Let's stay here for now and don't show any sign of urgency. They are the ones who are anxious to take action now. Maybe they will relent in two days."
Ye Chen sighed and said.
Then, three days passed.
County Magistrate Yu drinks tea and reads newspapers in his office every day. Ever since he got to know Ye Chen, he no longer worries about not being able to sell his factory.
In his eyes, Ye Chen is rich, willful, and not popular. He can't get a patent authorization at all. The most important thing is patent authorization. If he can't get it, the factory won't be able to open!
Under this situation, Ye Chen had no other choice but to buy the Gaochun Electronics Factory!
Therefore, County Magistrate Yu was fearless at this time. He even regretted not raising the price to 300 million. Anyway, even if it was 300 million, Ye Chen would have to hold his nose and buy it!
Unless he obtains patent authorization from other companies, he will have no choice but to admit defeat.
"But I can urge him."
County Magistrate Yu thought, picked up the phone on the table and called.
After sitting there for several days, Ye Chen actually couldn't sit still anymore. When he saw the phone on the table ringing, he hurriedly picked it up.
"Hello?
Mr. Ye?
I'm Yu Zhenhua. How have you been in Gaochun County these days?
Is it okay?”
"Okay, County Magistrate Yu, do you want to talk about the factory?"
"Yes, and no, I mainly want to say hello to you. If you have nothing to do, you can come to our small canteen for a meal. I will do my best to be a landlord!"
County Magistrate Yu said with a smile.
"As for the factory, Mr. Ye, I really have no room for retreat. You should know very well that even if you find a factory that is better than Gaochun Electronics Factory, you do not have the patent authorization of a big factory!"
"Without patent authorization, wouldn't this factory be just an empty shell?"
"Of course, Mr. Ye, if you can get the patent authorization from a big manufacturer, then my 280 million is indeed a bit higher. But having said that, Mr. Ye, if you can really get the patent authorization, we will also
There is no need to remain in a stalemate here for so long."
"So Mr. Ye, don't hesitate. With 280 million, we have all the factories and patent licenses available. You can't buy it and you won't be deceived!"
When Ye Chen heard these words, he wanted to curse him. The other person was grabbing his pigtails and not letting go!
