Chapter 196: Diversion Of Attention, World-Class Companies Gather! 【2 More Updates Please Subscribe】

"Lin Yu appeared in the United States, visited the "Harry Potter" crew, had dinner with Qi Muyun, and had a close relationship!"

"According to the official report of Magas, the largest island in the world for sale: Camelback Island has been sold, with a total area of ​​about 196 square kilometers. This giant island has been acquired by a wealthy man entrusted by Litton Bank, and is currently renamed: Phuket Island, and the buyer is suspected to be the owner of Litton Bank and the chairman of the umbrella company - Lin Yu!"

"Lin Yu appeared in the United States, purchased the world's largest private island, and became the largest island owner!"

"It is reported that Phuket Island is an island with no development value, with sparse vegetation and lack of fresh water resources..."

While the world is in full swing to elect the Star Awards, Lin Yu is already out there making love.

Buying an island, going to visit the "Harry Potter" class, and having dinner with the girl?

However, Lin Yu’s purchase of the largest private island has also aroused heated discussions among netizens!

"196 square kilometers... Can anyone tell me how big it is?!"

"294,000 acres, as big as 460,000 NBA basketball courts, as big as more than 700 bird's nests...!"

"Hell, what are you doing, Mr. Lin? By buying such a big island, are you building a maritime city? Or a maritime kingdom?"

"After thinking too much, I checked the information about this island. It is basically a deserted island. It doesn't even have fresh water resources. It is impossible to build a city? A kingdom? It has no sovereignty!"

"Then why did Mr. Lin buy it? Is it fun?"

"Buji Island? I don't know? Lin Shao really knows how to play, and every name he chooses is so unique!"

Some people speculate that Lin Yu must have a way to improve the environment on the island, and he can do seawater desalination. With the various high technologies emerging in the Umbrella Company, seawater desalination is not difficult, right?

The information about Lin Yu's purchase of a super large island quickly aroused heated discussion, and even the "Starry Sky Award" was vaguely suppressed.

The ‘Starry Sky Award’ is done after everyone has voted and is waiting for the draw. There is no need to continue to pay attention; the specific number of votes will not be displayed | But you can count how many votes each ten people cast?

But WeChat Circle is a global social networking site with nearly 1 billion active users worldwide. Apart from the official umbrella company, who will keep statistics on this information?

Lin Yu knew that the issue of islands was being discussed in the WeChat circle, but he did not elaborate.

The island is used as the base of the Umbrella Corporation. It can be said to be a military base. It is better not to attract too much attention and let it naturally fade out of sight after a while.

This time when he came to the United States, he had some serious issues that needed to be dealt with.

That is to sign L+ language licensing agreements with several technology companies in the United States.

I believe that once this news is sent out, it will soon cover up the news about ‘Phuket Island’!

On April 6, many reporters got the news:

Lin Yu is discussing L+ language licensing and holographic projection technology licensing with major technology companies, software companies, and Internet companies around the world.

In addition to local American companies such as Microsoft, Google, Apple, Intel, IBM, and Qualcomm, there are also large companies from other countries around the world, such as Samsung, SAP, Hitachi, Sony, Ericsson, etc., who have rushed to the United States for talks in Tuga. .

This time many companies gathered together to put pressure on Lin Yu;

On the other hand, everyone should discuss what price to pay to obtain authorization from Lin Yu?

L+ language, the umbrella company has said, is only used for research and does not require authorization, but for commercial use, authorization must be obtained.

At the Mobile World Congress, some companies approached Lin Yu individually to obtain authorization, but Lin Yu's price was very high. For products using the L+ language, 5% of the turnover was charged as a licensing fee!

This is simply a money grab!

Similar to Apple, if their mobile phones or software use L+ language, they must spend 5% of their turnover as licensing fees.

To sell a mobile phone, you need to pay about 40 US dollars in patent fees... This is easy to calculate. For companies like Google, their search engine uses L+ language, which is not the majority of the company's revenue. Want to pay 5% to Lin Yu?

Last year in 2017, Google’s advertising revenue alone reached 90 billion U.S. dollars. Does this mean that it has to pay 4.5 billion to Lin Yu?

This is 5% of revenue, not 5% of profit!

There is no other way to explain this except to steal money.

At the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, ​​companies such as Google and Apple broke up with Lin Yu on bad terms. It was not until recently that these companies joined forces to discuss licensing matters with Lin Yu.

Lin Yu happens to be going to Phuket Island this time, so he stopped by for a talk this time!

The so-called asking price is high, and you have to pay it back when you get it.

Anyway, Lin Yu is not in a hurry. L+ language is an external trend. These companies must have done research and know that L+ language is excellent. If they want to use it commercially, they must obtain authorization.

He offered such a high price at first. This will facilitate the subsequent negotiations.

If the asking price is low at the beginning, how can we negotiate later?

These companies are unwilling to accept this form of patent licensing, and are more willing to pay a one-time payment of how much money to obtain the license.

The highest price is 100 million per year, with authorization starting from 10 years, or 2.5 billion with permanent authorization, and patent protection is only for 20 years.

Think about a company with 2.5 billion. There are more than 20 companies gathered this time alone. If they are all authorized, they can get more than 50 billion US dollars!

But Lin Yu wouldn't be so stupid as to directly grant a 20-year license, unless there is something wrong with his mind, and the annual patent fee is only 100 million?

Are you going to send the beggar away?

How much patent fees does the world pay Qualcomm every year?

That’s tens of billions!

Apple alone has to pay billions, just for one year.

With 100 million US dollars a year now, you just want to get + language license? You think it’s like buying Chinese cabbage!

The negotiations broke down on the first day!

Everyone left the hotel where the negotiations were held and were quickly questioned by reporters.

So many big bosses showed up in person to show their sincerity, and at the same time they also wanted to put pressure on Lin Yu. Unexpectedly, Lin Yu was so determined and refused to give face at all. The first day of negotiations ended like this, without giving any face.

The people who came this time were at least the CEO of the company, and (well, it was good) even the founders came.

The opportunity is rare, so remember to wait here.

These reporters are all on the record of major newspapers, magazines, and television stations, and they can only come in after being recognized.

Otherwise, if there are dangerous elements and people here die, the global economy will be in turmoil!

"I would like to ask Mr. Lin Yu, this time many technology companies gathered together, what are they mainly discussing?"

"Mr. Cook, what was the outcome of this negotiation?"

"I would like to ask Mr. Mark Zuckerberg, how is the progress of this negotiation?"

"Mr. Larry Page, this time Google..."

Faced with inquiries from numerous official reporters, Lin Yu and other company executives gave simple answers without saying much.

This kind of negotiation will definitely not end soon. It is better to leave it to professionals. Both parties actually have their own bottom line. As long as they are close to this bottom line, the negotiation can basically be completed. .
