Chapter 1222: Extortion Is a Technical Job

Christopher's face changed slightly. How could he be sure about this kind of thing?

Looking back at the secretary beside him, the secretary immediately left the team knowingly, and then turned back to look at Wu Tao. Kristoff suddenly realized that the situation might be really bad this time.

Originally, I just planned to take advantage of them, but now I am faintly restrained by them.

Realizing this, Christopher no longer had to wait for the result of the secretary's call. He simply followed Wu Tao's lead and walked into the No. 1 conference room and sat down generously.

"Wu, I really don't understand. Since Motorola has decided to give up its mobile phone business, what else can we negotiate? Are you really interested in acquiring our mobile phone business?"

"... If this is the case, you only need to invest 10.9 billion US dollars, and I, little Galvin, can make the decision and sell it to you, so as to reap the long-lasting friendship between us and Huaxia Wu."

Kristoff talked seriously, as if the pigtail Wu Tao held in his hand was not his.

What's rare is that Wu Tao never interrupted him and listened to him politely. Then he said helplessly: "Christopher, I know that Motorola's mobile phone business has many high-value patents, but unfortunately, I really No need."

"... I have clearly expressed my position in public before. As for whether Liu Lenovo will be confused by your visit today, I am not optimistic!"

After hearing this, Christopher suddenly felt a lump in his throat, as if fate had strangled his throat.

I opened my mouth to say something, but felt that the words were really weak.

It wasn't until a tall and handsome young man next to him said a few words in his ear that he regained his energy and dealt with Wu Tao: "Actually, it doesn't matter, Wu. Even if we can't reach an agreement with Liu from Lenovo, we can still sell it to him." Google. And from the perspective of the continuation and development of Motorola’s mobile phone business, I think it is more appropriate to sell it to Sergey.”

"Oh~" Wu Tao couldn't help but smile meaningfully, "Sergey and Larry? These two guys have quite an appetite! Tianqi Investment seems to own a lot of original shares in Google. I have to ask about this."

Kristoff's face suddenly turned pale. How could we talk about this? He looked back at his most trusted assistant next to him, who seemed to have nothing to say.

Two consecutive small movements made Wu Tao notice the burly guy next to him. Thinking back to the previous introduction, this guy seemed to be called Mike. It was a very common name, and he couldn't remember the origin of this guy for a while.

It seems that I still read too little in my previous life.

Fortunately, at this time, the secretary next to Christopher who had gone out to make a phone call came back, whispered a few words between Christopher and Mike, and then sat back in the seat behind him obediently.

However, after listening to the report, Kristoff's face was so gloomy that he was about to shed tears.

"Well, since Wu is so thoughtful, let's talk about it. Now I'm really looking forward to seeing what interesting cooperation Huaxia Wu, as the soul of the International Financial Summit, can come up with?"

Wu Tao raised his eyebrows and glanced at Kristoff who gritted his teeth and said these words. On the contrary, he was not in a hurry: "To be honest, Kristoff, I am also looking forward to it because I haven't thought about it yet. I suggest that we Both parties should take a break, and there will definitely be a happy negotiation result later."

After saying that, Wu Tao got up and left first.

Extorting money is a technical job, especially to understand the chips in hand and master the balance between them.

Neither let the opponent easily pass the test, nor let the opponent break the pot.

Especially now that this guy knows how to use his international reputation to remind himself, he needs to be more cautious.

As soon as he returned to the president's office, Qin Xiaoxiao called.

"Boss, the Zhongguancun side has been temporarily calmed down. We have almost found out the price of little Galvin's negotiations with several companies. But I still need time to sort out what Motorola has to offer for extortion. "

"Then let's first talk about the specific situation of little Galvin looking for his husband's family for the mobile phone business." Wu Tao first grasped the main issue and said.

Qin Xiaoxiao's voice came clearly: "Little Galvin has contacted many interested buyers before, but only two have actually entered the substantive negotiation stage. One is Google and the other is Lenovo."

"For Google, I asked Larry and the price was 8.7 billion U.S. dollars. As for Lenovo, it is estimated to be around 11 billion U.S. dollars. Even if there is a deviation, it is still about the same."

Wu Tao thought of the US$10.9 billion that Christoph had challenged just now, and felt that US$11 billion was about the same.

At first glance, it sounds like a lot, but Wu Tao knows in his heart that if compared with Motorola of the same period in his previous life, the price is obviously underestimated.

It's a pity that Motorola is declining a bit quickly under the impact of the Lotus brand.

The failure of several new mobile phones in a row made little Galvin unable to withstand the pressure and decided to break his wrist.

But having said that, although the rise and fall of the two generations of Motorola mobile phones were different, the results were surprisingly consistent.

In the current situation, if little Galvin had taken action on the mobile phone business a few years later, he might have lost his hands completely.

When it comes to this point, little Galvin still has a strategic vision.

Qin Xiaoxiao's voice continued: "For Motorola's mobile phone business, Liu Chuanzhi's psychological price should be around 10 billion. So the operating space left for us is this 1 billion US dollars..."

Wu Tao felt that this statement was open to question, but he did not interrupt Qin Xiaoxiao's report, "In addition, boss, we also noticed an interesting situation."

"tell me the story."

"In addition to preparing to sell its mobile phone business, Motorola is also secretly in contact with a Chinese company, saying that it intends to acquire this Chinese company."

"Which Chinese company is it specifically?"

"Huawei!"

There was a bang in Wu Tao's mind, as if something deep in his memory was pulled away instantly, "Who specifically handled this matter?"

"Mike Zafilovsky is said to be the most popular candidate for the next CEO. Little Galvin values ​​him very much!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Tao immediately connected this familiar name with the burly unfamiliar face in the conference room just now.

It turned out to be him!

No wonder.

Things are getting really interesting...

Huawei, which suddenly emerged in its previous life, was almost completely acquired by a foreign company for US$7.5 billion not long after its development.

This has become a hotly discussed topic after Huawei became a national brand around the world.

And the person in charge of this matter is Mike Zafilovsky!

I have to admit, this guy's vision is definitely first-class. It's a pity that things didn't go as planned. Mike failed to succeed in the important matter of becoming CEO, and ultimately failed to become CEO. As a result, the plan to acquire Huawei was completely aborted...

It's interesting to think about fighting with such people.
