Chapter 407 The importance of a voice

"Very good. The whole brick-moving project still needs to be accelerated. Coco still asks me for a talking cat every day. Moving bricks on the construction site is indeed very hard. It really doesn't work... more investment can't be said for such a big experiment. Room, after three years, hand over a chip and go out..."

Ning Wei gave the order.

The biggest advantage of discussing with March here is that it will definitely not be leaked. Except for the backup records saved in a specific area, no one can access the conversation.

"Meow... There is an optimal solution for additional investment or resource allocation. Blindly additional investment may not necessarily achieve the desired results. According to the development laws of the earth's industrial system, a 30-baseline difference is acceptable."

"Then don't just limit yourself to simulation preparation. At special historical nodes, we need to come up with more things to ensure that we can obtain more benefits. We will issue orders when they are needed, and put physical products into the market in batches to ensure our leading advantage. .”

"Meow……"

"Don't make any noise. My phone will ring soon. A group of people will think that I am treacherous and just take money and do nothing... You know, human standards are different from yours and not so pure. To put it simply, I slap You can slap me, but you must not slap me, otherwise it will be a violation of the established rules... As for who made the rules, it has never been important. The main thing is whether the fist can be hard enough to make everyone accept these rules."

"It's not enough now. There will always be people who think they can still try harder. Once this kind of perception is formed, it will be bad, and it will be more troublesome next. Think about it, after spending so much money to make something, there is still hope. If someone can pay for it as soon as possible, it is best to make more money as soon as possible, so that you can have spare energy to continue investing, so that the product can be updated faster and enter a virtuous cycle.”

"Everyone is short of money now, and Ning Si's investment is too big. We can't just focus on the domestic market, we have to wait until the next generation of products is released to take a breath. In such a large laboratory, every day when you open your eyes, a lot of money is spent Evaporated... Oh, by the way, you have never had any idea about money. Let me tell you this, if you cannot achieve scale effect as soon as possible, your computing power may not only be unable to continue to expand in the future, but may also gradually decrease... So Say you understand?"

"Meow... I understand. I will integrate resources as quickly as possible to ensure that within the next month at least three or more companies will be able to produce batches of qualified composite gel products, and integrate all controllable supply chains."

"Well, that's right. Although we don't know how to do business, we are all connected in our bones. The more critical times like this, the more we need to have a stronger voice. At this time, we can We must not let those people unite, otherwise there will be a lot of trouble.”

“Humans’ thinking patterns are different from those of machines. When people are chased by life and fed shit, how to feed them the first bite is often the most difficult. But once they successfully feed the first bite, they will feed the second bite. There won’t be any big obstacles. Until the third, fourth, and countless bites, some people will even think that shit is actually delicious. So come on, March.”

"Meow……"

March screamed, but the most outstanding thing was the vivid interpretation of the disbelieving cat face - it looked particularly cute under the influence of the holographic video. Ning Wei almost wanted to reach out and pull it over and take a deep breath...

I can only express regret for this kind of resistance. Maybe if I could have hatched a puppy, I might not have been so surprised and resistant to the topic of eating shit...

"Then you go ahead and get busy. I'm leaving. By the way, come back and sort out all the data for me. I'll take the time to take a look at it. But for things that require people's cooperation, don't copy them to me. Send them directly to Just put it in the laboratory logistics mailbox. Every day the mailbox is full, and I have to ask you to help me clean it up. Isn’t this an endless loop? That’s not how you use abundant computing power. Well, that’s it. "

"Meow……"

After the face-to-face conversation with March, Ning Wei walked out of the central operation room.

I turned around the corridor, got on the elevator, returned to the cabinet in the laboratory rest room, and got my mobile phone back. Not surprisingly, there were already several missed calls and more than a dozen new emails.

Everything is expected.

The negotiations on Huawei's side are almost coming to an end. It's time for these big guys to feel indignant and want to ask for an explanation.

In fact, under normal circumstances, Ning Wei doesn't want to, is too lazy, and has enough confidence not to get involved in these things.

But then again, if someone really needs to be the villain or the peacemaker in this matter, there is no doubt that he is more suitable to be the villain. After all, as a multinational company, Huawei has too many investments, research bases and overseas employees abroad. If Huawei turns against it, the loss will be too great.

But Ning Wei is different. How should I put it? Although everyone who has met him has been smiling in recent years, the actual situation is that his relationship with his opponent has basically reached the absolute zero point, and there is basically not much room for improvement.

If these Western technology tycoons were asked to vote for a Chinese person they hoped would be killed immediately, even taking into account some personal grudges and perceptions, there is a high probability that Ning Wei's name would be directly ranked first.

So Ning Wei really has no scruples when it comes to being this bad guy. Anyway, these people want to attack Ning Wei for a day or two, but unfortunately, they have never been able to find a breakthrough in reality. On the contrary, Ning Wei can always defeat them. The most sensitive position to tease, so I don’t owe you this time...

Especially since he just stayed in the operation center and didn't receive any of these calls, Ning Wei could probably imagine that the big guys on the other end of the phone might have started greeting him in various beautiful languages...

But this is obviously no problem. In fact, Ning Wei never minds being scolded. In order to relieve these anxious emotions, Ning Wei is very considerate and prepared to return the phone calls one by one.

Based on Ningwei's consistent moral principles, these angry people must have a channel to vent their emotions, and they must not accidentally hurt friends and businessmen. The order of returning calls should be based on the order of incoming calls, so as to avoid any distinction between closeness and distance.

So the first call was made to IBM President Palmisano.

Speaking of which, Ning Wei didn't have much dealings with this big guy, but he had cooperated with him before. Not quite familiar, but not unfamiliar either.

"Ning, hello."

"Hello, Mr. Palmisano, I'm sorry, I wasn't near the phone just now and didn't receive your call. Is there something urgent?"

Ning Wei asked directly.

There are still some phone calls that need to be answered, and we need to save as much time as possible.

Although generally bosses don’t like to spend too much time chatting on the phone, but what if you encounter a chatty one...

"There is indeed something. Ning, actually I am still in China, just in Shencheng. Not long ago, we went through a series of meetings. We had a series of discussions on the establishment of a technical alliance, but there is one very important point. The question is, Ning, the Huawei representative’s speech seems to be inconsistent with the promises you made before. There are many unimaginable and incomprehensible cooperation terms. What’s even more frightening is that they said this was what you meant?”

"Well...Mr. Palmisano, if the incomprehensible terms of cooperation you are talking about are about the technology inventor having one-vote power to decide standards and one-vote power to veto standards that may hinder technological development, then there is no such thing. Wrong, it was indeed my suggestion...but I have to correct one thing. It seems to be no different from the promise I made before. In fact, did I promise anything?"

"Um……"

From the sudden stop on the other side, you can understand why people who are too upright are often not popular in this society.

Most of the time, the truth is not very flattering, and few people like to hear it. Especially when it is told too directly, it can easily make people speechless, leading to poor communication.

Fortunately, the big boss on the opposite side has also experienced big storms, and quickly responded: "Ning, if this is the case, we will not accept such conditions. Maybe we need to reconsider the previous gift, and more It's important that we reconsider the idea of ​​uniting developers around the world to expand the reach of new technologies as soon as possible. You know, it's a lose-lose situation, so you should reconsider this proposal."

Ning Wei was silent for a moment, and then asked curiously: "Um...Mr. Palmisano, when you say 'we', do you refer to IBM alone, or can you represent more companies?"

"Of course it represents more companies, and we are always in communication."

"Oh... um, wait a moment..." Ning Wei responded, then sat down, turned on the computer and summoned March classmate again.

The mobile phone and the computer are interconnected, and he is too lazy to think about how to word his response.

"Well, Mr. Palmisano, in fact, the donation to the March Education Fund is conditional and revocable. Even though the funds have now entered the March Education Fund account, according to the agreement between us, For a contract drawn up under friendly negotiation conditions, if in the final negotiation your company is unable to reach cooperation with a third party based on friendship and mutual trust, you have the right to require us to return all donated funds."

"After you submit a written application, March Education Fund will also guarantee to refund the principal in full within sixty working days in accordance with the contract. After completing the refund transaction, the contract previously signed by you and us will come to an end. We are no longer guaranteeing that your company will get a chance to negotiate. Well, that's probably the case, so Mr. Misano, are you going to submit a written return of the deposit report on behalf of all of them or IBM?"

It's a very formal response at a glance. Some of the words are a bit awkward to pronounce, and the reading is a little inconsistent. The rest is pretty good.

"Ning...this is not a way or attitude to solve the problem. We should communicate on a rational basis and choose a method acceptable to everyone to achieve final cooperation. In Huaxia's words, we will definitely find a win-win point of convergence. .”

The voice on the other side began to become gentle...

"Um... I'm sorry, please wait... That's it, Mr. Palmisano, in fact any advice I give to my partners is the result of careful consideration and full verification, and it is precisely to achieve what you said. A win-win model. In fact, since ancient times, Chinese people have always adhered to the concept of being kind to others and win-win cooperation when doing business, which has been verified by history. It can be said that no one in the world understands win-win cooperation better than the Chinese people."

"The suggestions we have given are also prudent decisions after taking into account the interests of all partners. Throughout history, we can see that a unified voice is the basis for the long-term survival of an alliance. And to achieve a unified Voice requires a leader who can and dares to take responsibility to unify the various internal opinions and coordinate everyone's interests."

"An alliance full of intrigues and unable to unify opinions will eventually prevent everyone from obtaining theoretical benefits due to internal instability, and may even destroy an industry. So please believe that the suggestions I have made are exactly The best choice is to use strong measures to plan the orderly and healthy development of this emerging industry under the leadership of one voice within the alliance, which is the best choice that meets the interests of all parties."

"There is a saying in China that power and responsibility are equal. The more power you have, the more responsibility you have to bear. So please believe that as long as you accept our suggestions, in the future development of the industry, we will fully consider and maintain the alliance. In the interests of all members, as the leader of the technology alliance, I also believe that Huaxia Company will exercise the rights granted by the alliance in accordance with the principles of fairness, justice and openness..."

"Um……"

"So, Mr. Palmisano, any more questions?"

"Yes, Ning Wei, can you show your sincerity and speak well?"

"Um... I'm sorry. Mr. Palmisano, there's a call coming in. I need to hang up. If you have any other ideas, we can continue to chat later."

After saying that, Ning Wei hung up the phone decisively.

This time he was really doing it for the benefit of the president of IBM across from him. The kitten on the computer screen was already a little unhappy...

After all, after putting together a perfect set of words, he was judged as not being able to speak well. This would somewhat make an intelligence with anthropomorphic emotions unhappy...

Ning Wei thinks that this can actually be a paper, "How important it is to know how to appreciate the beauty of language."

"Hi, Pat, my friend, don't tell me that you also felt frustrated during the negotiations in Shencheng? I thought you could understand us. Think about it, without Intel who said the same thing, where would the current prosperity of the semiconductor market be? , if motherboard manufacturers cannot unify their ideas, respect technology, and proactively adapt chips, where can there be such a vibrant industry?"

"Remember the history of Microsoft trying to control Intel? Really, Pat, you definitely understand the importance of a voice, right?!"
