Chapter 290 “Saigon Development”

As soon as Intel's wafer foundry model came out, semiconductor companies were shocked.

As soon as the press conference ended, countless people came to the door, almost breaking the threshold of Intel.

When TSMC was established in the previous life, the response was average and was even questioned. TSMC cannot give too many discounts to other semiconductor companies. It develops slowly step by step. Intel is originally an industry giant and uses a lot of advanced machinery and equipment. It has many advantages over TSMC in its previous life. , it is much cheaper to hand over chips to Intel than to produce them by other semiconductor companies themselves, which makes many semiconductor companies very excited.

Of course, these semiconductor companies will all face a very embarrassing problem. It seems that the wafer factories they invested in can be shut down.

With the increase in business volume, Intel will definitely increase the scale of its wafer fabs in the future. This time it will undoubtedly give Intel an opportunity to grab a bargain.

Just imagine, other companies' wafer fabs are not operating anyway, so it's better to sell them to Intel at a low price.

When Andy Grove was discussing cooperation with representatives from other companies, he naturally brought up the idea of ​​acquiring their wafer factories or purchasing their machinery and equipment. Some machinery and equipment can still be used.

If Intel doesn't do this, other companies will eventually do it, and then it will become another "TSMC".

In order to stifle competitors, Intel will naturally not give other companies this opportunity.

…

Intel's wafer foundry business is so popular that it is beyond Li Zetian's expectation. Li Zetian ordered Zhang Zhongmou to expand the scale of the wafer factory in Hong Kong again to form a super-large-scale wafer foundry. At the same time, he also established a chip packaging and testing factory. , to achieve the goal in one step, one-stop service!

There is an Ant Factory in Shenzhen, and the chips produced in Hong Kong are shipped to Shenzhen and can be quickly assembled into products, reducing transportation costs and time.

Ant Factory is equivalent to Foxconn, and Intel wafer foundry is equivalent to TSMC. It is not difficult to imagine that Hong Kong and Shenzhen will become the production centers of global technology products in the future.

Li Zetian's great contribution and influence to China are by no means something ordinary businessmen can achieve.

At this moment, Hong Kong citizens are beginning to realize that Hong Kong's economy is not just about real estate, finance, trade, transportation, and tourism. It now also includes high technology and manufacturing.

In fact, when an influential company settles down in a certain place, it will often attract other companies to settle there.

Intel, Microsoft, Apple, Oracle, Sun Microsystems, Mango, Gene Technology, Galaxy Network and other companies have established branches and Asian R\u0026D centers in the Science Park. For those companies that want to seek cooperation, do you think they will come to the Science Park? starting a company?

The Hong Kong media can't help but call the area where the Science and Technology Park is located, namely "Hong Kong Sai Kung", "Hong Kong's Silicon Valley"!

It will be the end of March in a blink of an eye.

Li Zetian finally reached an agreement with the Hong Kong Telephone Company and finally acquired the Hong Kong Telephone Company for US$4.5 billion.

After the news came out, it caused a sensation all over Hong Kong, but people knew that Li Zetian would definitely successfully acquire the Hong Kong Telephone Company. There was no doubt about this, after all, he was too rich.

After winning the Hong Kong Telephone Company, Li Zetian felt very happy and satisfied.

At this time, the Hong Kong government held a banquet and proposed the "Sai Kung Development" project, and invited him to participate!

Li Zetian was naturally invited to participate.

Sai Kung is known as Hong Kong's back garden because most of the area is undeveloped and many places still retain beautiful natural scenery. Now as high-tech industries take root here, it is necessary to develop Saigon.

The banquet was held on the top floor of the Peninsula Hotel, and most of Hong Kong's most prominent figures were present.

However, when Li Zetian pushed the door open and walked out, the entire banquet suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked at him.

"It's Chronos Li, he's here!!!"

People were surprised.

After several seconds, everyone immediately stepped forward to greet Li Zetian as if they were welcoming the most precious guests.

Li Zetian's wealth and influence put them out of reach. They seemed like dwarfs who could only stand at the foot of the mountain and look up at the giant!

"Chronos·Li, hello!"

"Chronos·Li, hello!"

"..."

Li Zetian always had a faint smile on his face and nodded slightly to them as a greeting.

"Chronos Li, you can come to the banquet, it really brings glory to this place! There will be a lot of land tenders for this development of Saigon, and you are bound to win it!"

At this time, the chartering king, who was relatively influential in Hong Kong, smiled and said to Li Zetian.

Li Zetian smiled and said: "King of Chartered Ships, you are just joking. Saigon is undergoing great development and there are many opportunities. If you have money, everyone can make money together. Am I the kind of person who likes to eat alone?"

"Haha, of course not!" A smile appeared on the charter boat king's face. He said this, but in his heart he really wanted to say that you are simply a solitary eater...

At this time, Sun Hung Kai Properties Kwok Ping-hsiang brothers, Henderson Land Lee Shau Kee, Peninsula Hotel Kadoorie family, Swire Group Swire Group, Shangri-La Robert Kuok, Cheung Kong Holdings Li Jiacheng and others also came over to say hello to Li Zetian.

These people are all well-known big shots in Hong Kong. If they stamp their feet, Hong Kong will be shaken.

Some young people who came with their elders couldn't help but be envious when they saw Li Zetian chatting and laughing with these big shots.

"Chronos Li is not a few years older than me, but he is on an equal footing with the top families in Hong Kong. No, he should have a higher status. Look at all the people surrounding him, when will I become like him, even if only half of him? good……"

After a while, lights appeared on the stage and a pot-bellied official stepped onto the stage.

"Hello everyone, welcome to this banquet. I think everyone should have received the news. Yes, that's right, the Hong Kong government is preparing to launch a major development of Saigon. This banquet is just a press conference. Let me inform you that the real tender is It will be a month later. However, I have the information on the bidding content here, you can take it back and study it."

After speaking, the four beautiful models took the information and handed it out to everyone present.

The official continued: "The Saigon Development Project is very huge. This is not a project that one company can afford. I have gathered everyone here today just to let you communicate here and cooperate together in the future. Okay, I won't say more. , everyone enjoy this dinner!"

Li Zetian was sitting in the corner, drinking red wine, and looking at the bidding content. He looked quite surprised, "It is indeed a huge project and very ambitious! If this development continues, Hong Kong and Saigon will become prosperous!!"
