"Does the industry alliance interfere in the internal operations of various companies?"

Zhou Shuo's request caused heated discussion among the people in the audience. It sounded like Fanhan Group was ruthless and wanted to fight the Americans to the end.

Is this appropriate? No matter how powerful the Fanhan Group is, it is just a company after all. It is hard to say what the future will be for competing with a country.

What's more, if joining this alliance means losing control of one's own company, then isn't this a way to lead a wolf into the house? None of the businessmen here will naively think that the Panhan Group is a saint angel, and Lei Feng, who specializes in benefiting others and never benefits himself. If the market starts at that time, and the company is acquired or controlled by the company, it will be really crying without tears.

Any issues related to company control are very sensitive.

Of course, Zhou Shuo knew that this issue must be explained carefully, otherwise the entire plan would fail.

He said confidently: "I can hereby guarantee that the Industrial Alliance will never interfere with the management affairs of each company. The purpose of the alliance is to enhance the competitiveness of China's electronics industry and seize the domestic electronics market. It will only cooperate fairly with members, benefit mutually, and will never let members only pay without rewards."

"What specifically? What kind of requirements will the alliance make for members of the technology spread?" someone from the audience continued to ask unwillingly.

"Specifically, it is an assessment of the market share of members."

A contract appeared on the curtain wall behind Zhou Shuo, and he heard him say: "This is a patent authorization agreement. One of the most core terms is to require the authorized party to obtain a considerable domestic market share within a certain period of time. If the market share is lower than the requirement, then the authorization fee will have a punitive increase. If this market share exceeds, the authorization fee will also have a reward decline based on the scope exceeding. The more it exceeds, the greater the decline."

"How does Fanhan Group determine the market share occupied by the authorized party?"

"Disclaimer based on the data of third-party statistical agencies." He paused for a moment, and then said toughly: "But please note that there is another additional clause in this clause, that is, if the products of the authorized party have the same quality and price accessories and technology in China, domestic accessories and technology must be given priority. Simply put, it is required that members do not use American products."

Wow—

The people in the audience did not whisper, but became completely panicked.

This clause is too targeted. If such clause is signed, it will be completely on the side of Panhan Group's fight against the United States.

Chinese people all know that this "siding team" has always been the most profitable business. But at the same time, striding team is also the most risky business. If you take the team correctly, you will make a lot of money, and if you take the team wrong, you will never make a breakthrough.

This is no longer a business competition, but a political struggle.

How to choose? Today, when I got on the Panhan Group ship, I will definitely be transferred to another list by Americans in the future. Who do electronic products business does not deal with Americans?

But if you don’t get on the Panhan Group ship today, you will definitely be listed by Zhou Shuo. If you can be given a favor by Americans, it would be fine, but it is foreseeable that Americans will not sell you products that you would not have sold to you just because you did not join this industrial alliance. You will not cut off a piece of meat from the profit you deserve.

On the contrary, it is the domestic market situation. If the industrial alliance of Fanhan Group has the upper hand, such an organization that supports each other internally and has higher technology, it will definitely not give the fenceists or even the compradors a good deal.

What should I do? Those present are all leaders in the domestic electronics industry. Without any reputation in this industry, they will not appear in the venue of Fanhan Group now.

It can be said that everyone present has to face the pressure of taking sides. Behind each of them is almost the leading companies in the field.

Newman's company, such as Wang Hongfeng and Tang Weide, occupied almost 60% of the market share of the domestic voice service system of paging station before 1999. Although the paging market has shrunk significantly in recent years, they seized the opportunity and opened up a new mp3 market. Newman's mp3 product share in the market has increased to 25% in just two years.

For both domestic and foreign mp3 markets, Fanhan Group is a behemoth that cannot be avoided.

"Lao Wang, did you see it just now? There is a product..."

"You are talking about mp4, right?" Wang Hongfeng nodded impatiently before Tang Weide finished speaking, and said, "I saw that mp4 is an upgraded product of mp3. In fact, there are already many mp3 products with large screens. The difference between mp4 is that it does not have hardware video decoding capabilities. In this regard, Fanhan Group happened to launch an audio and video decoding chip, which has cleared the obstacles to the launch of mp4."

"The mp3 market would not have expected that it would face elimination so soon..." Tang Weide's expression darkened. Newman had just invested in the mp3 market for less than two years. The update speed of electronic products was too fast, and even the product form of mp3 was about to fall behind.

"The same is true for mp4. Have you not seen the concept of full-screen smartphones? Mr. Zhou also said that this kind of mobile phone product will appear around 2005. At that time, let alone mp3, even mp4 will be an outdated product. At present, most of the functions of mobile digital devices will be concentrated on smartphones."

"What do you mean? Our products have nothing to do with Americans. If we can get the mp4 technology and accumulate a few years of experience and capital, entering the mobile phone market should be a good choice."

Wang Hongfeng laughed and nodded excitedly, "Yes, the future mobile digital market will definitely be the world of smartphones. From this point of view, Mr. Zhou is so high that he is not sure where he goes! To be honest, I have a premonition that it will definitely fail in the field of mobile communications in less than ten years."

"Then we?" Tang Weide hesitated for a moment and looked at Wang Hongfeng in search.

"No hurry, let's first look at where companies that have relationships with Americans are on."

Sure enough, on such a major issue, someone will raise his hand to speak soon.

"Mr. Zhou, I would like to ask if you join the industrial alliance, can you exit at any time? What are the requirements for exiting? The most important thing is, what should you do if domestic equipment and accessories cannot meet the needs? We all know that sometimes an accessory does not just look at the performance and price. Products with the same paper data often have a big gap in use. The stability, heat dissipation, and whether the ergonomic design are reasonable, these also have a great impact on the product."

Before the person could finish his words, he sat down, and the other person stood up and asked impatiently.

"Hello, Mr. Zhou, I also have a question. We all know that China may be able to lead Americans in some kind of technology, but its foundation is not as rich as them. Even if it can lead for a while, it is probably impossible to rule out the possibility that Americans will come from behind. If the market share is reduced due to backward technology, who is the responsibility? In this case, will members be restricted from using American products?"

"Mr. Zhou, I have a question. Regarding the use of patent authorization ladder, should we calculate it based on the final result at the end of the year, or based on the average weighted monthly?"

"Mr. Zhou!"

"Mr. Zhou, here I-"

...

Looking at the surging questions from the audience, Zhou Shuo not only did not feel annoyed, but instead smiled on the corner of his mouth.

As the saying goes, the buyer of goods is the one who buys goods. Now the people who are actively asking questions are not only not trying to embarrass him, but are people who are really interested in this plan.

As long as their doubts can be resolved, I believe they will make the right choice.

The current situation is very obvious. The opportunity to make a fortune by investing in the Fanhan Group is close to you. If you defect to Americans, you cannot even say that you defect to them, because the "Americans" you want to defect to have no specific target. You can only say that you do not offend relevant American companies, but American companies will not give any benefits.

Isn’t it easy to make a decision after entering and exiting?

Zhou Shuo smiled and pressed his hands down and said, "Please have a question, one question, I will answer the question of this gentleman at the beginning. Regarding the withdrawal of the industrial alliance, this is not an alliance with compulsory effect, nor is it a trust like the United States. It is necessary to form a monopoly organization that controls the upstream and downstream of the entire industry. If you really want to say that this is just a loose alliance formed by Chinese semiconductor companies in order to save themselves. Whether you join or exit, it depends entirely on voluntary."

"The second question is actually very related to the first question. For members, if the technology or profits provided by the alliance are not satisfied, they can withdraw from the alliance at any time. For this reason, our Panhan Group will also try our best to ensure that our technology and quality can always meet the needs of members. But one thing must be said before is that if the members violate the terms of the agreement before they exit the alliance, they will have to pay huge compensation."

...

The concerns of these manufacturers can be said to have similar commonalities. Zhou Shuo had answered these concerns and questions many times in other field meetings a few days ago.

Although there were constant people asking questions in the audience, Zhou Shuo answered without any hindrance. His neat and confident attitude gradually infected everyone on the field, and the number and frequency of questions gradually decreased. In the end, after a long period of quietness, Zhou Shuo spread his hands and looked at everyone with a smile and asked.
