Facing the question, Sun Heng did not respond immediately.
Rather, he meticulously examined the document in front of him.
Although these technologies were just obscure ones to him, being obscure was only relative to himself.
Sun Heng was very clear that any one of these obscure technologies placed in the world would be absolutely top-notch!
In this situation, Sun Heng naturally cannot make such a fool's easy move, especially when the recipient of this easy move is from the maritime world.
After carefully examining the document, Su Heng had a general assessment.
According to the content of the document, he can choose three modes of collaboration with the Iron Tower.
Among them, one-time permanent transfer can get the most benefits in a short period of time.
The Iron Tower offered an exorbitant sum of 68 billion dragon coins directly for the condensate battery!
If Sun Heng agrees, the Iron Tower will buy out this technology at this price, gaining the permanent right to use this technology!
The price is high, but to be honest, it's not that high.
The high price is because this technology is completely free for Sun Heng.
Even 680 RMB is a gain for him.
But, that's only relative to Sun Heng himself. In reality, considering the value of the technology itself, the 68 billion is not high.
As always, the condensate battery technology is nothing to Sun Heng, but on the world stage, it can completely crush all current batteries!
Not just ordinary crushing, but a cliff-like crushing!
In plain language — don't undervalue pickled vegetables as dry grain!
Such excellent technology can not only be used in new energy vehicles, but also almost all other electronic products related to batteries can use this type of battery!
For example, mobile phones, flashlights, and various communication devices...
The applications are numerous, with the global market estimated to be at least several hundred billion or even several trillion yuan!
With such high value, the Iron Tower has only offered 68 billion, which can be said to be completely without sincerity.
However, the reason why the price has been pressed to such a level is entirely due to the Tengyun No. 1 battery.
The Iron Tower side saw the Tengyun No. 1 battery and understood that in the face of the Tengyun batteries, this condensate battery has no advantage, and the market will inevitably be greatly squeezed by the large-scale production of Tengyun batteries in the future.
So that's why they made this offer.
In essence, it's Sun Heng's own products that have compressed their own value and potential...
Seeing this, Sun Heng felt somewhat helpless.
"Too much of a good thing isn't necessarily good either..."
Shaking his head, Sun Heng continued to lower his gaze.
In addition to the buyout, the second mode of cooperation is short-term dividends. Sun Heng provides the condensate battery technology, and then divides the profits with Iron Tower. For every set of batteries produced by Iron Tower, Sun Heng receives a dividend for that set.
The third option is also a dividend, but it is long-term. Compared to the second option, the dividend ratio of the third option is lower.
Sun Heng simply glanced at these two modes of cooperation and decided to abandon them directly.
From a long-term perspective, both of these cooperation models, even the long-term dividends with the lowest dividend ratio, will inevitably yield more profits than the buyout in the end.
Even from a longer-term perspective, the long-term dividends with the lowest dividend ratio, if normal development continues, can bring greater benefits.
But the account clearly can't be calculated like this.
Just like the Iron Tower's concern about the technical squeeze, while the condensate battery is advanced, there is already the Tengyun No. 1 solid-state battery!
Once Tengyun No. 1 becomes widely produced, the market for condensate batteries will inevitably be severely compressed!
At that time, the benefits to be gained will plummet like a cliff!
Of course, whether it will be produced on a large scale is something Sun Heng can control, after all, Tengyun batteries are his own as well.
Just that the current world situation is full of twists and turns, and things are constantly changing.
This "steady and continuous" approach is clearly not suitable.
Not to mention "steady and continuous," it might become "water without roots" any time soon!
Moreover, Sun Heng also considered one thing: if he gave the technology to the Iron Tower, it was hard to guarantee that the Iron Tower wouldn't give it to Black Eagle or other maritime powers the next day.
Especially Black and White Eagle, even if the Iron Tower doesn't give it, who knows if Black and White Eagle won't use force, blackmail, fraud, extortion, cheating, and other means to obtain the technology.
Even if the Iron Tower guarantees that the technology won't be stolen or obtained by Black and White Eagle through other means.
Since Sun Heng is going to sell the technology, it is necessary to apply for technical patents.
He didn't apply for patents before because he wasn't afraid of being stolen, but if he sells the technology without applying for patents, isn't he just waiting for others to take his technology and apply for patents?
Once others apply for a patent, then who cares who invented the technology? The one who owns the patent is the one who benefits from it!
Sun Heng is not a brain-dead person, how could he do such a foolish thing as sending his technology as a gift!
And applying for technical patents requires disclosure of the technical content!
Once the technology is disclosed, the whole world will know his technology. Although there is patent protection to prevent others from using it, the so-called patent is a rule devised by the west to protect their own interests. Now this rule is restricting their interests!
With the shameless nature of the Anglosphere, when rules fail to protect their interests and instead constrain them, they won't care about any rules. By then, the Anglosphere will undoubtedly overturn the table and destroy the rules or renege on their promises and unscrupulously devise new rules that benefit themselves!
By then, his technology might become the Anglophone's technology!
With the pirate nature of the Anglophone maritime world, they can indeed do something like this.
By then, what dividends would he collect for nothing!
So it's better for him to get the benefits all at once rather than wait for others to cause him trouble.
What is in the mouth is the good thing, what is not in the mouth is always a big cake!
Hesitating for a moment, Sun Heng slowly spoke:
"In terms of the cooperation for Iron Tower's condensate battery technology, my idea is to buy this technology outright..."
"Buyout?" Qiao Zhenhai's brow furrowed slightly.
"Yes," Sun Heng nodded slightly and continued, "The long-term benefits from the buyout are not as high as dividends, but this type of cooperation has the lowest risk, and we can gain the most benefits in the short term..."
Sun Heng spoke in a concise manner, explaining his thoughts to Qiao Zhenhai.
After listening to Sun Heng's speech, Qiao Zhenhai nodded slightly.
Indeed, as Sun Heng said, this type of cooperation has the lowest risk.
Qiao Zhenhai also doesn't trust the people of the Anglophone maritime world.
Don't talk about contract spirit. No one believes this except for some shepherd dogs, public intellectuals, and idiots who have been deceived.
Do the maritime worlds have a sense of contract spirit?
Don't joke around.
To be honest, the Anglophone maritime world does indeed have a sense of contract spirit, but only when the contract is in their favor. Once the contract is unfavorable to them, what would be the outcome? That's all bullshit!
They would just turn the table and then hold a gun to your head to sign a new "contract" with you!
"Of course, after they require the technology buyout, I cannot authorize its use by anyone else except them and ourselves. This requirement is acceptable, but the price of 68 billion yuan is too low. My psychological bottom line is one trillion yuan!"
"Not only Iron Tower, but also San De Village on this side. San De Village also wants this technology. Let's give it to them together. They want the technology, so they need to pay me one trillion yuan. I will agree with them that, except for them and us, no third party will be authorized to use this technology!"
"Of course, I can also promise them that within ten years, I will not authorize the Tengyun batteries to any power except ourselves, and I will not export the Tengyun batteries to any village outside the Long Village!"
After listening to Sun Heng's words, Qiao Zhenhai was silent for a moment before furrowing his brow and saying:
"Little Su, not exporting Tengyun batteries will restrict our hands, may be cutting off the main root and chasing shadows?"
Compared to the mere two trillion yuan, Qiao Zhenhai is more aware of the hidden benefits behind the Tengyun batteries.
That's a market worth tens of trillions!
Is it worth giving up a market worth tens of trillions just for two trillion yuan?
In response to the question, Sun Heng smiled slightly and then continued:
"Chasing shadows instead of the main root? No, Master Qiao, have you forgotten my other technologies?"
Hearing this, Qiao Zhenhai was taken aback for a moment, then quickly recovered and pondered: "Little Su, your meaning is..."
"In the short term, I don't intend to export the Tengyun batteries. This battery is not much to me, but I also don't need to squeeze my own product. Exporting the Tengyun batteries would only cause the value of my other technologies to plummet!"
"By retaining the Tengyun batteries, we can not only maintain our leading advantage but also maximize my interests to the greatest extent!"
"Although not exporting the Tengyun batteries will give us no advantage in exporting batteries, I still have absolute confidence that even if we use the same batteries, we can gain the maximum possible benefits!"
"Take cars as an example. The core of a car is not just the energy source, but also the powertrain and control systems!"
"As for the power system, there's nothing to say. Electric motor technology is not a cutting-edge technology. Both our side and the maritime world can easily produce electric motors that are sufficient to drive cars..."
"But in terms of the car's information system, I have the most advanced artificial intelligence technology and satellite navigation technology!"
"In this area, I can completely crush them!"
"Even the low-level artificial intelligence on my previous 'Wild Pig Drones' can completely crush the artificial intelligence of the world!"
"As for satellite navigation, there's no need to say more. Master Qiao, you should be well aware of the power of my Tianchu satellite system..."
After hearing what Sun Heng said, Qiao Zhenhai nodded slightly.
Indeed.
As Sun Heng said, even if using the same batteries, Sun Heng has an absolute leading advantage over other villages.
Artificial intelligence and the Tianchu satellite navigation system are both powerful enough to dominate the world on their own.
With these things, if we can't compete with the Anglophone world, then there's no need to talk about competition. Just go to sleep early...
But then, Qiao Zhenhai thought of another matter:
"Little Su, San De Village also wants your artificial intelligence technology. What are your thoughts on that?"
Hearing this, Sun Heng smiled and said directly:
"They want it, then give it to them, right? It's just the low-level artificial intelligence technology installed in cars. Even if they have it, they won't be able to make much out of it. Master Qiao, by now, you should be well aware that my artificial intelligence technology is not just some coding programs..."
"……" After hearing what Sun Heng said, Qiao Zhenhai fell silent.
Then he nodded as well.
As Sun Heng said, they have been in contact with Sun Heng's artificial intelligence technology for a day or two.
They are very clear about the value of Sun Heng's artificial intelligence technology.
That's not just a bunch of code, but also the amazing basic industrial technology behind it!
For example, the chip that carries artificial intelligence!
The world's top mobile phone chips are already just 28 nanometers!
The most advanced industrialized mature chip process is still just 28 nanometers.
The chips in Sun Heng's hands are not only suitable for their own use, but even the chips on the drones they exported are 14 nanometers!
Of course, large-scale equipment does not pursue the most advanced chip process.
Like the Black and White Eagle Village's Falcon fighter, the chip on its aircraft is only 90 nanometers in process.
The Tianlong and Yinglong fighters exported by the Long Village have on-board chips that are only 64 nanometers.
Car chips don't need to be as compact as mobile phones, and don't need to pursue the most advanced process, but rather need to maximize the number of things that can be accommodated within the smallest space.
However, this is relative.
The complexity of artificial intelligence technology necessitates supercomputing power that is beyond imagination!
Similarly, the same 28 nanometer chip, with one billion operations per second and hundreds of billions or trillions of operations per second, are entirely different things!
If the same software is put into two computers with completely different performance, one computer can only play the "Minesweeper" game, while the other can play AAA titles. Imagine which one can run better?
Sun Heng not only has the most advanced chip process technology but also the most advanced chip design!
Even more, the chips used by Sun Heng himself are not the mainstream silicon-based chips in the world now, but rather more advanced carbon-based chips or even photonic chips!
Even with advanced artificial intelligence technology, without the corresponding fundamental industry, the most advanced artificial intelligence would be useless!
It's like putting a modern supersonic fighter jet into the era of ancient cold weapons. Give you the blueprints, give you all the technology, can you build it?
Therefore, Sun Heng has absolutely no concern about artificial intelligence technology being mastered by others.
At this moment, Sun Heng said again:
"I've thought about it. Let Tie Tower Village pay 200 billion yuan for the battery technology!"
"As for San De Village, give them the low-level artificial intelligence for smart driving in cars..."
Hearing this, Qiao Zhenhai pondered, "Little Su, are you wanting to have them compete with each other?"
"Hmm" Sun Heng nodded slightly, "Although they are currently doing well with us, at the end of the day, they are not on the same side as us. Right now, they are just relying on us because we have an advantage. They will eventually move towards us."
"An ancient Chinese saying goes: 'Different races have different hearts.' We can collaborate and provide certain benefits, but we cannot let them get full and satisfied. Once they are full, they will not be content with their current situation..."
"Giving the battery technology to Tie Tower will give them an advantage in battery energy, and giving artificial intelligence to San De will give them an advantage in AI. However, each of them also has their own shortcomings!"
"This way, we can maximize the benefits of convergent battery technology and artificial intelligence, while also controlling their ambitions to the greatest extent!"
"And us, with both battery technology and intelligent technology, will occupy the largest advantage in the international market in the future, thus gaining the maximum benefits!"
Sun Heng never thought highly of Tie Tower and San De Village.
From the village level, commercial level, or personal level.
Therefore, Sun Heng never thought that just because two villages approached him, he should help them wholeheartedly.
Interests are just interests; there's no problem with exchanging interests. Talking about feelings? It's not impossible either, but everyone is an adult, or rather, mature villages.
The "best friends" and "brothers" stuff can deceive the 250 IQ smart guys, but it's unnecessary to deceive ourselves...
