The price tag of 4 billion is not cheap at a time when smartphones have just started.

But in the future, it can only be regarded as super cheap, even cabbage price.

The patent price is measured based on the number of smartphones!

These days, smartphones are in their infancy. There are not many smartphones in the world, so communication patents are relatively cheap.

In five years, when the number of smartphones in the world has increased exponentially, the value of these patents will also increase exponentially!

30% of Nokia's patents will not be worth 4 billion yuan, but 4 billion US dollars, or even more!

Originally, Wang Yi wanted to buy more patents, even if he spent another 4 billion, but unfortunately Nokia had too many and would not sell them.

They plan to package and sell the remaining mobile phone patents and mobile phone business to Microsoft.

Even initially, Nokia didn't want to sell these 30% patents.

Later, some directors wanted to cash out some of the shares first, so they agreed to sell 30% first.

With this money, Nokia shareholders are no longer anxious about a full sale.

In this way, you can slowly negotiate with Microsoft and negotiate a higher price!

It is conceivable that if Microsoft wants to acquire Nokia this time, it may have to spend more money.

However, this has nothing to do with Wang Yi.

Wang Yi said: "With these patents, Xingyi Technology's patent moat has been further improved. Although it is still difficult to launch full sales, it is still no problem to launch partial sales."

Zhu Changlin nodded: "Yes, our international layout can begin. Once we win some patents from other giants, we will be almost there."

"Yes, Xingyi mobile phones can be launched in Xingyi flagship stores and specialty stores in some countries and regions."

Wang Yi explained: "For example, in the Middle East, all Xingyi mobile phones are online and sold to the rich in the Middle East."

This place is special after all, and few brands have yet to initiate patent litigation in the Middle East.

When Apple, Samsung, and Nokia initiate patent litigation, they usually target mature markets such as Europe, the United States, Japan, and South Korea.

There are much less in other areas.

Now that Xingyi mobile phones are on sale in Europe, the United States, Japan and South Korea, it is still a bit dangerous, and there is a high probability of losing the patent war.

Firstly, the number of patents is insufficient, and secondly, they are fighting locally and have local buffs to support them!

Therefore, although many Xingyi flagship stores and specialty stores in Europe, America, Japan and South Korea have opened, they can only continue to sell Xingyi tablets, Xingyi TVs, Xingyi headphones, accessories, Xingyi air conditioners and other smart home products.

Other regions and countries such as the Middle East, where patents are not as mature, are the first targets for the internationalization of Xingyi Mobile.

Even if a patent war is launched, the patents in hand are enough to cope with it.

Zhu Changlin nodded: "These areas are fine. Our Xingyi TV's Polish factory previously covered the Middle East and opened ten flagship stores. Now it is just in time to distribute products."

"Yes, in addition, we can also open up exclusive stores, authorized stores and channels to join these areas. As long as the other party pays in full and delivers the goods in full, we have no risk."

For foreign markets, especially in special areas, Wang Yi does not want to open a large number of directly-operated stores. On the contrary, franchise stores are better.

Even if there is a problem, it is a specialty store, and the authorized store is responsible for its own profits and losses, and does not delay Xingyi Technology's making money.

The purpose of opening a flagship store is mainly for brand promotion and after-sales layout.

Zhu Changlin agreed and continued: "Chairman, unbounded mobile phones in these areas should also go on sale at the same time!"

Wang Yi nodded: "They all go on sale at the same time. The domestic market will definitely lose volume this month, and we can only rely on overseas markets to make up for it. There are also Asan, Asia, Africa and Latin America, which can sell Unbounded mobile phones, as well as the old Xingyi smartphones.

in stock."

These countries and regions are economically poor and have limited spending power.

The new flagship of Xingyi, which costs more than 5,000 yuan, has some difficulties and has few sales.

But the 999 Unlimited mobile phone is still selling well in those places even if it sells for 1199.

There are also old models such as xphone 1pro and xphone 2. After xphone 3 is released, xphone 1pro and xphone 2 will be unsaleable and will not sell well even if the price is reduced. They can be thrown into Asia, Africa and Latin America and sold.

It can be regarded as an additional output channel for old models.

"Okay, Chairman, I will make arrangements right away!" Zhu Changlin responded, this is considered channel expansion.

Once we win some patents from other giants and the patent moat is solidified, we can go on the market in Europe, America, Japan and South Korea, and then we will be fully internationalized!

After Zhu Changlin left, Wang Yi was preparing to play a game when Mihayou and Mr. Cai suddenly came.

Wang Yi was a little surprised by this.

Wang Yi holds 45% of the shares of MiHoYo and is the largest shareholder. However, MiHoYo is still not a subsidiary of Xingyi Technology, but operates independently.

When it was first acquired, Wang Yi was quite interested in miHoYo and would often go over to give him some advice.

Later, there were more business departments and the business was so busy that Wang Yi had no time to pay attention to it.

Now that Mr. Cai has not come to visit, Wang Yi almost forgot about MiHoYo.

Wang Yixiao said: "Mr. Cai, have a cup of tea, "Henghuai Academy" is a success, congratulations!"

"Thank you, Director Wang. MiHoYo is still a seedling, and it is still far behind Xingyi Games."

Mr. Cai looked complicated.

Last year, miHoYo launched "Honkai Academy", which incorporated Wang Yi's suggestions. It was equivalent to the previous "Honkai Academy" and was quite successful.

In the previous life, after Beng Er was launched, it made nearly 100 million in 2014, more than 100 million in 2015, and more than 200 million in 2016.

Now, with the support and promotion of Wang Yi, "Honkai Academy" was launched last year, and its annual revenue exceeded 700 million!

Directly surpassing the total income of many years in the previous life.

But that's all. Compared with Xingyi Technology's "Happy Fun", "Defend Yuzu", "Subway Parkour", "Star Hunter" and "Unbounded Cool Run", it is incomparable.

The annual revenue of "Honkai Impact" is not even as high as the monthly revenue of these games.

There is no way, the money-attracting ability of "Honkai Academy" is not on the same level as "Defend Yuzu", let alone "Happy Match".

MiHoYo is still growing these days and can’t yet make a horror masterpiece like Genshin Impact!

Wang Yi smiled and comforted: "For a new team, the first game can achieve an annual revenue of 700 million, which is already very successful. The future will be even better."

"Will it be better?" Mr. Cai was a little unconfident: "Frankly speaking, we are making a new Honkai Impact 2, but I feel that the improvement is limited, and it may not even be able to surpass Honkai Impact."

Wang Yi understood that the new Honkai was the Honkai San of the previous life. There was progress, but not much.

MiHoYo only became a god after the original god appeared.

Without Genshin Impact, MiHoYo would be just a small game company with some achievements, nothing more.

Maybe it will collapse soon like other similar companies.

That's how MiHoYo is right now, it's just making some money.

Looking at Xingyi Technology, any game it releases will be a hit.

There are many games released every year, and all of them are hits.

The monthly income of any model is higher than the annual income of Mihayou!

This made Mr. Cai no longer confident, and similarly, the other three members were no longer confident either.

"A new game, that's good. If you need anything, just ask, I fully support it."

Wang Yi is still very optimistic about MiHoYo and hopes that MiHoYo can make Genshin Impact in the future and make a lot of money for him.

Mr. Cai was a little embarrassed: "The support given by Director Wang is enough. We need traffic for traffic and resources for resources. We don't even think we are worthy of so many resources."

"Don't say that. You have to trust my vision and I won't see the wrong person! You can do it." Wang Yi encouraged.

Well, first make this bowl of chicken soup, and then work hard to make Genshin Impact and help me earn tens of billions!

Not to mention anything else, tens of billions have been invested in the research and development of lithography machines. Coupled with the country's layout and the efforts of major professional institutions, it is estimated that DUV lithography machines will be made around 2019!

EUV lithography machines will be difficult to develop within ten years, but there is hope for DUV lithography machines within six or seven years.

It will be enough to mass-produce 7nm chips by then.

The previous 7-nanometer mobile phone chip also appeared around 19 years ago.

Wang Yi has made up his mind to actively cooperate and increase investment in the research and development of photolithography machines.

Mr. Cai was in awe. This feeling of being recognized was so great!

Or it was personally recognized by the chairman of Xingyi Technology, a business legend, and a technology giant!

It felt really good.

But then he sighed: "Director Wang, thank you for your encouragement. We will not let you down, but we have some internal problems."

"Oh? What's wrong?" Wang Yi was a little surprised.

Honkai's annual turnover is 700 million, which is considered a profit, so how can something go wrong?

Is it possible that after making money, the family will be separated?

This is very common in entrepreneurial teams!

"It's like this. One of our co-founders, Jincheng... is a little less confident in new games, and even a little less confident in developing games."
