Chapter 102: Joining Hands to Block

Chen Mo frowned and put down the book in his hand: "Notifying you so late? Are you in such a hurry?"

"The point is here." Zhao Min's tone was not good.

They have already negotiated today, the terms of cooperation between the two parties have been set, and the details of the contract have all been determined.

Originally they were going to sign the contract tomorrow morning, but the other party informed them at this time tonight that all the contracts negotiated today were voided, and the signing ceremony was also cancelled.

This means that the other party wants to redo the contract, or does not cooperate.

"Why is that?"

"I don't know, we talked very well today, and they seem to be very sincere. The reason for the other party's change is not clear for the time being. Maybe they will talk about it tomorrow." Zhao Min said.

"It's a bit strange to suddenly change your mind. If the cooperation is not reached, it doesn't matter, you can go back to China first, and you can delay the European market for a while."

"Understood, I will inform you in advance this time, I am afraid that this trip to Europe will not bring much gain."

Sudden change of mind, the other party must want greater interests. And for the greater good, they can't give in. If the two sides do not agree, this trip to Europe can only be left empty-handed.

"Let's do this first, you rest early. If they don't have much sincerity tomorrow, go back to China first, there's no need to waste it."

"it is good."

After putting down the phone, Zhao Min rubbed his eyebrows and walked slowly to the window.

It is late at night, and the Danube is under the lights, like a dream, it is easy to get lost in this night scene. This is one of the most prosperous corners of the world, but behind the prosperity, I don't know there is blood hidden.

This place is not as peaceful as the country, and in the area controlled by capital, interests are paramount.

After calming down, Zhao Min walked back to the bed and lay down.

I am afraid this trip to Europe will come to an end, and the internationalization of the army ants will still take some time.

What's the matter, I'll talk about it tomorrow, Zhao Min didn't think much and closed his eyes.

the next day.

Zhao Min followed Julie and the others and left the hotel. Under the pick-up and drop-off of the team, we will soon arrive at the Altice Group headquarters.

"Mr. Kang Bomin, we need an explanation. Didn't we already negotiate yesterday, count the time, it was the time of signing the contract, why did we suddenly cancel the cooperation?"

As soon as he saw Kang Bomin, the CEO of Altice Group, Zhao Min spoke up. The tone was not very good, it felt like someone was playing tricks.

It took such a long time to negotiate the good terms, and it was simply cancelled by the other party after a call. No one had a good temper.

"Ms. Zhao, don't be impatient." After listening to the translation, Kang Bomin pushed his eyes on the bridge of his nose, smiled slightly, and pointed to the seat opposite the table: "Sit down and talk about yesterday's terms, the board of directors disagrees, I There is no way."

"Then how do you guys want to cooperate now?" Zhao Min sat on the chair and calmed down.

"We decided to cooperate in another way. We acquired 10% of the shares of Army Ant Company and used our company's resources to grow Army Ant Company as quickly as possible and squeeze Apple out of the European market. We will gain greater benefits. ." Kang Bomin said.

He used to be the CEO of Arang Corporation and has a good understanding of the software and hardware market of communication in the European telecommunications market. I have to say that the Butterfly Eye mobile phone of the Army Ant is a very good product, and if it can be obtained by an agent in Europe, the profit is definitely not small.

It's just that the contract was rejected by the board of directors, and the board of directors only wanted the shares of Marching Ant Company to obtain greater benefits, rather than acting as a proxy for the benefits of Butterfly Eye Mobile.

The meaning of the above is very firm. If you don't get the shares of Army Ant Company, it is impossible to let them enter the European market, and they said, they can naturally do it.

After all, the whole of Europe is so big, and big financial groups and big capital have long been the uncrowned kings of this place.

"Impossible, we will never sell our shares." Zhao Min said with a sullen face.

As she thought, the other party really wanted to get more benefits. It is obviously impossible to just focus on the shares of Army Ant Company.

"Ms. Zhao, you have to think about it. Europe is a huge market. With our help, you can quickly eat this cake. The benefits here are much more valuable than 10% of the shares of Army Ant."

"I'm not interested. Since your company doesn't cooperate, I can only regret it."

Zhao Min stood up and turned to leave.

"Ms. Zhao, if you leave here, you will leave the entire European market. It will be difficult to enter in the future. It is only 10% of the shares, and we are only a controlling shareholder and do not participate in the operation of the company."

Kang Bomin frowned when he saw Zhao Min leave so decisively.

"No interest, goodbye." Zhao Min said goodbye and left with Julie and others.

It is impossible to talk about matters involving company shares. It is impossible for Chen Mo to take out the shares of the Army Ant Company, and he is still sitting on the table talking without playing. It is just a waste of time.

Seeing Zhao Min leave decisively, Kang Bomin made a phone call: "Sir, Marching Ant Company refuses to sell shares."

"Get out if you don't surrender." A decisive voice came from the other end of the phone.

As soon as Zhao Min left, the heads of major European telecommunications operators collectively received news that they were not allowed to cooperate with the Army Ant Company.

The spread of this news indicates that it is almost impossible for the army ant mobile phone to enter the European market.

In Europe, it is not the government that decides, but the big capitals, families and trade unions that bring those politicians to power.

"It looks like they're trying to block our way."

That night, in the hotel, Zhao Min put down his mobile phone and sullen. They wanted to find another company to cooperate with, and this happened, and the plan was in vain.

Now Army Ant is blocked by a major European telecom operator.

Zhao Min looked at the time and called Chen Mo.

"How about it?"

"Yes, as I expected, the people from the Altice Group changed their terms. Their terms were 10% of the shares of Army Ant Company."

"Can you change to another partner?"

"I rejected their request. The largest operators in Europe have joined forces to block and are not ready to let us enter the European market. This time, the people of the Altice Group suddenly changed their minds. It is estimated that these telecom giants are working together to make a fool." Zhao Min said .

"Is there a way?" Chen Mo asked.

"In Europe, most of the telecom software and hardware are in the hands of these operators, which almost monopolize the entire market. As an outsider, it is impossible for us to break through." Zhao Min said.

Huawei has developed very well in Europe, but even Huawei will not easily offend these telecom operators because of us, and will not help us enter the market.

Because this market already has their big cake, if the marching ants are provoked in, it is to find a competitor for themselves, which is not in their interests.

"It seems that I still have to rely on myself." Chen Mo smiled.

"Take your time, this is just the beginning, there is still a long way to go in the future. The Marching Ant Company has come this way, but we have experienced a lot." Zhao Min said.

"Since it's blocked, it's not very useful to stay in Europe. Go back to China. It's inconvenient to talk on the phone. Let's go back to China."

"OK."

The next morning, Zhao Min and others took a plane back to China.
