He reiterated the technology that Motorcycle wanted, stating that if Xing Baohua agreed to allow Motorcycle to use his technology unconditionally, the other party would build a factory locally.

With this one condition, the city's collective opinion was that Xing Baohua should prioritize the overall situation and not worry about personal gains or losses.

If Xing Baohua feels that the losses are serious, the city will provide him with some support later.

Xing Baohua scratched his head. What a mess! When did motorcycles start using roundabout strategies? Haven't they always been using money to pave the way?

They won't even let go of such a small amount of money?

Xing Baohua thought for a moment and said to the local officials, "It's not that it's impossible. I want to talk to them about cooperation. No matter how the talks go, I will still firmly support the city's economic development."

While Xing Baohua was saying this, he was actually thinking about what strategy to come up with.

The Chinese data system isn't worth much money. Sooner or later, domestic manufacturers will copy it. Then Xing Baohua won't have any way to get revenge.

We can only watch helplessly as other manufacturers use it.

Now I'm pretending to be wronged, hoping to get benefits from both sides.

Xing Baohua's small factory is no longer the small workshop it once was. No one can just arbitrarily seize or take it away. The economic impact of his factory is much stronger than that of the motorcycle project.

However, from other perspectives, the political effects outweigh the economic effects, and the overall impact is significant.

Xing Baohua also admitted that the benefits brought by the motorcycle after it was put into operation far outweighed his efforts.

A verbal agreement was reached amicably, and Xing Baohua will hold a closed-door meeting with the motorcyclist.

The two companies will discuss cooperation issues; the city government will not be involved. This meeting will be crucial to the final decision on the motorcycle project.

In the afternoon, Xing Baohua arrived with only his secretary and asked two stenographers from the municipal government office to take notes on the meeting.

Four motorcyclists were present. Xing Baohua only recognized Nim and Henry; he didn't know the other two, and they didn't introduce them.

Xing Baohua handed Henry a supplementary agreement that he had prepared overnight, and asked him to take a look.

After Henry finished reading it, he passed it on to others.

“Xing, I want to know what you really want to do? Are you sure you want to build a communications satellite?” Henry said.

"It's not me who will do it; I'll be working on the satellite hardware?"

"Then who will do it? Your G family?" Henry pressed.

"Only you operators have the capability to succeed. The core technologies are all manufactured in your country, transported to our country for assembly, and then launched into space using our carrier rockets. The cost is only a quarter of what it would cost to launch from your own country."

As he spoke, Xing Baohua gave his secretary a look.

Then the secretary pushed in a portable blackboard. Xing Baohua began to brainwash, no, explain, to the group.

He first talked at length about the initial costs, and then, in a broader sense, talked about how they would be facing a world-class market that would bring in hundreds of billions of dollars every year.

When Nim heard "hundreds of billions," he laughed, feeling that Xing Baohua was exaggerating.

Currently, no company or group has annual sales exceeding 100 billion US dollars.

Xing Baohua smiled at Nim and said, "Don't believe me? Let me tell you in detail."

Talking nonsense doesn't cost money or pay taxes; it's just a waste of breath.

Ask a few people on a motorcycle: How many car companies are there in the world? How many cars can these companies produce each year?

Seeing that no one answered him, the guy continued, "Suppose all the car manufacturers in the world could produce 1 million cars, and the positioning system, along with the service, charges $100 per car. That would be $100 million in sales."

It seems the motorcyclists are still laughing; there's still a long way to go to reach 100 billion.

Xing Baohua said, "What about ships? What about handheld devices? In my current plan, we will add a satellite link chip to mobile phones in the future. This way, mobile phone users won't have to worry about getting lost. Customers who need navigation can just activate the service."

While Xing Baohua was giving his explanation, his secretary had already laid out a large-scale map of Luzhong City on the blackboard.

Xing Baohua took a pen and found the location of the city hotel on the map, and then marked the location of his factory.

The secretary had already placed the pre-prepared LED lights in the area circled by Xing Baohua.

Then, using a red pen, I drew the route between the two points.

Xing Baohua explained: "Now let's talk about the benefits of satellite navigation. Point A is our current location. Suppose a guest wants to visit my factory but doesn't know the route. They don't need to ask anyone. They can just take out a mobile phone or handheld device that supports positioning, and it will automatically select the best route."

Of course, if a driver is from out of town, they can directly use the car's navigation system to reach the designated location.

Now that the functions and profits have been explained, it's up to us whether Motorcycle can resist the temptation.

The four men on the motorcycles were whispering amongst themselves. Xing Baohua sat to one side and lit a cigarette. His secretary quickly brought him a glass of water.

Xing Baohua doesn't need to elaborate on how profitable telecom operators are; motorcycle enthusiasts know better than him. Otherwise, how could they have gone from being equipment manufacturers to the top of the food chain in the first place?

Actually, when they created mobile phones, they wanted to become a mobile network operator. They just didn't have the energy to actually do it.

Moreover, they have cross-shareholdings with a certain operator, and if they also engage in operating system services, it will create internal competition.

There's only one satellite operator, and if they go ahead with it, they'll be the second to try it out.

With such a large market, if managed well, achieving annual sales in the tens of millions is not impossible.

Furthermore, Xing Baohua's promises are too grandiose; satellite phones and satellite services are two different concepts and two different systems.

At present, these are all conceptual issues, and there are still many difficulties in realizing them. First of all, you need satellites.
