Chapter 136 Zhang Lei’s Thoughts

Pichai's face wasn't very pretty, and he always felt like he was being cheated.

The fact is that he was indeed cheated!

Pichai was determined to bargain to see if he could get the price to the lowest, but the price Zhang Lei offered was beyond his expectation.

This price is a bit beyond his psychological budget. Even if he can make the decision and agree to it first, he still has to go back and convince the board of directors.

However, if I go back with this result, I'm afraid it won't be easy to explain to the board of directors.

Maybe, my position will be in jeopardy!

"Mr. Zhang, your price is a bit unkind. I'm afraid I can't explain it to the board of directors. You have to believe in the sincerity of our Google. So, what do you think of 10 billion US dollars?"

This price is indeed the lowest price that Mr. Pichai can offer. If it exceeds this price, it will need to be explained to the board of directors and persuaded.

Zhang Lei moved the tea cup with a very helpless expression: "Mr. Pichai, I'm afraid your price cannot satisfy our Director Liu! Our Director Liu said that the minimum price must be 15 billion US dollars. Lower than this price, It will only make your trip in vain! You see..."

Xu Li on the side was holding back a smile.

As expected, Mr. Zhang really carried out Director Liu's words to the fullest, asking him to kill him ruthlessly. As expected, he was rude and said it in a decent manner.

When Director Liu arranged for Mr. Zhang to take charge of this matter yesterday, Xu Li was present. She did not hear Liu Haoyu say that the original price was 25 billion! The price of friendship is 15 billion!

It’s just a trap for him to work hard! Sure enough, Mr. Zhang's performance today was very good in carrying out Director Liu's instructions!

This is completely Mr. Zhang’s independent display!

Pichai looked a little unhappy. In his opinion, this was a complete deception that could not be negotiated.

There was a stalemate at the scene, and the atmosphere was a bit solemn. Pichai's face was uncertain, and he was trying his best to calculate the gains and losses, and his mind was spinning rapidly.

More importantly, Pichai still needs to think about how to convince the company's board of directors if he really wants to agree to this price?

The assistant who came with Pichai didn't look very good either. Although he knew he couldn't get in the conversation, he was secretly analyzing the pros and cons of this transaction.

Zhang Lei looked at Pichai with a calm expression. He was a little surprised that Pichai actually remained calm and did not have an attack when he heard the price.

He is truly worthy of being the CEO of a major global company!

Pichai was a little unhappy and asked again: "Is this price really no longer negotiable?"

Zhang Lei spread his hands, shook his head with a helpless expression, and gave an apologetic smile.

Zhang Lei actually thought carefully about this price. Although the price of 15 billion is difficult for Google to accept, he will reluctantly accept it with gritted teeth and the corresponding huge benefits.

If it were any higher, it would really exceed Google's real bottom line.

Seeing this, Pichai had to calm down again. The rewards of being able to cooperate with the Qiankun System were too tempting.

Even though the asking price was high, Pichai was reluctant to give up.

This time, the silence lasted for twenty minutes. Zheng was very patient and did not rush.

During this period, Pichai also borrowed a free corner and made a few phone calls.

Zhang Lei also knew that for such a large deal, Pichai would need to find someone to discuss it, and it would be impossible to decide on it in one go.

Finally, Pichai sat back on the negotiating chair and looked at Zhang Lei with a sullen face: "We can accept your company's offer, but we have one requirement. Your company must ensure that the operation time of the Qiankun system is five years. If a substitute product appears, the contract will be extended to the substitute product. In addition, if your company launches a computer operating system, it will be included in our cooperation! In other words, your company will also be equipped with our computer version of the system by default. product service."

Pichai is really a little scared. If in another year and a half, Universe Technology comes up with a product that replaces the Qiankun System, then he will really cry!

Tai Chi voice assistant is a lesson learned from the past!

Although Universe Technology has not launched a computer operating system yet, it does not prevent the possibility, so Pichai also added this point.

Regarding Pichai's request, Zhang Lei just thought about it for a moment and nodded: "Okay, that's no problem."

In Zhang Lei's view, there should be no alternative products for the Qiankun system, at most they are just upgraded versions of the system.

Regarding the computer version, the Tai Chi voice assistant originally included a computer version. If the Qiankun system also has a computer version, adding this will naturally be no problem.

After everything was agreed upon, we started drafting the contract. The contract was already ready, and we just needed to add or modify some content based on this meeting.

After both parties confirmed that it was correct, it was quickly signed.

As the CEO of Universe Technology, Zhang Lei was authorized by Liu Haoyu, so he naturally had the right to sign this contract.

After the contract was settled, Pichai rejected Zhang Lei's request to have dinner together and quickly said goodbye. To be honest, this meeting really didn't bring him much joy in successfully negotiating the contract, but it only added a lot of depression. How can he still think about eating?

"Mr. Pichai, go slowly. Welcome to come again next time!" Downstairs in the office, Zhang Lei smiled as she watched Pichai get into the car and leave.

"I'm also looking forward to our next cooperation!" After saying this with a smile, Pichai waved his hand to Zhang Lei through the car window.

After saying that, Pichai signaled to the driver that he could drive!

Zhang Lei watched Pichai's car go away, and then walked in with Xu Li.

One or two scattered reporters nearby also noticed this scene. If there were not security guards around, they would have rushed up just now.

Not to mention that the Spring Festival is approaching, even if there are usually no reporters waiting at the door of Universe Technology, after all, there is not much information to report. The information that can be reported is almost available online, and it is not necessarily possible to get any revelations by standing at the door. , after all, this is just a technology company, not an entertainment company that cultivates star artists.

These two reporters couldn't buy tickets in time after the press conference yesterday, so they wandered around downstairs in boredom to try their luck.

Not long after Pichai got on the car and left, Liu Haoyu finally arrived at the high-speed rail station in Xinyang City. After Chen Qiang and Gao Peng picked up the car, Liu Haoyu got in the car and drove to Universe Technology.

Originally not planning to go to the company again, Liu Haoyu suddenly became curious, how was the discussion between Zhang Lei and Google?

So I stopped by to take a look and ask about the situation!
