Chapter 91: Response and Reaction

"Alright, I understand. Please tell your boss that the door will always be open for him," Wei Dajin replied with a frown after receiving Zhao Na's call.

"Also, if you're not satisfied with the terms offered by Huawei, please state your terms. I'll inform the company and let them consider." Wei Dajin maintained his professionalism. His tone didn't change at all although he was unhappy about being rejected.

Right on the heels of that, Zhao Na and Wang Qian got on the line.

"Director Zhao, Heyme Corporation is sincere about this. Please consider this carefully. If you're not satisfied with our terms, please state so directly." Heyme Corporation had the lowest hardware profit margin. The margin on a 1,000 yuan entry-level phone was only 50 yuan.

If Heyme could obtain the exclusive rights to use the Divine Dragon Optimization App, a phone's performance on the same hardware would be doubled.

Although the price of the phone could not be doubled, increasing it from 1,000 yuan to 1,500 yuan wasn't an issue. Moreover, after the price increased to 1,500 yuan, its performance could even crush other manufacturers' 2,000 yuan phones.

Before they came, the senior management of Heyme Corporation convened a special meeting. They were unanimous that no matter what method they used or what price they paid, they had to get the Divine Dragon Optimization App!

Moreover, five million Heyme entry-level models had already been produced in the factory this year.

The plan was to release it on April 1st. If the Divine Dragon Optimization App became popular in the market, everyone's old phones would have fast processing speed and would function very well. Their performance would even surpass their newly released phones. Who would then buy the five million phones that had already been produced?

Once they obtained the exclusive rights to the Divine Dragon Optimization App, they would install it on these five million phones. This batch of phones would offer mid-level performance at the entry-level price, they would definitely become the bestseller of the year.

"I'm sorry, President Wang. Our boss has no plans to sell the Divine Dragon Optimization App." Zhao Na's tone was firm.

After Wang Qian thought for a while, he could only make a second proposal.

Huawei and Heyme proposed acquiring the Divine Dragon Software Company as this was the cheapest solution.

"Director Zhao, have you considered other methods of collaboration? The Divine Dragon Optimization App can be licensed exclusively to Heyme phones. We are willing to buy the permanent right to use the Divine Dragon Optimization App at 18 yuan per phone."

"Heyme sold 200 million Android devices in 2046, which was last year."

"If the Divine Dragon Optimization App was installed on all the devices, the annual software license fee will hit 3.6 billion yuan!"

Heyme Corporation had done its sums. After monopolizing the Divine Dragon Optimization App, their phones would definitely be positioned at a higher level. The prices would increase, and the number of devices sold would definitely decrease.

Moreover, while using the Divine Dragon Optimization App, the software department of Heyme Corporation would also think of ways to reverse engineer the App.

As long as they obtained the source code of the Divine Dragon Optimization App, it would not be hard for Heyme Corporation to imitate it.

As long as it was not a direct copy, they wouldn't breach any patent laws.

More often than not, the most critical part of software function implementation was the original thought process. As long as one understood the method, there were countless ways to achieve the same functions.
