Vol 2 Chapter 1141: I object!

Chapter One Hundred Forty One

I object!

Full of enthusiasm!

With the current capital chain of the "Second World", it is almost impossible to mobilize US$3-40 billion in cash. When Lin Feng held a "Second World" board meeting via video conference, everyone heard that Lin Feng wanted to buy the company again, but they were unanimously opposed. Although Lin Feng's vision has always been very accurate, it is not a good thing to expand too hastily. The goal of the "Second World" is to become the world's best it company, so it must be steady, one step at a time, and not too eager for quick success. Otherwise, the foundation will not be stable, and once the future expansion is too fast, a slight omission will cause an avalanche-like disaster.

Everyone shook their heads and resolutely disagreed with Lin Feng's suggestion.

Lin Feng was also shocked. Unexpectedly, everyone opposed their proposal to acquire the company this time, whether it was the game development department or the hardware development department, all of them opposed it in unison. And it is firmly opposed! Of course, everyone is also concerned about Lin Feng's status and influence in the company. Although they are against it, most of them use various reasons to explain their opposition, rather than directly and rudely and resolutely.

"Boss, the company now repays 100 million U.S. dollars in debt each year. Moreover, it has just acquired the ‘imax’ company and ‘Blizzard Entertainment’ not long ago, and now there is really no money!” Wu Zhaopu said.

Although his proposal was repeatedly opposed by everyone, Lin Feng was not annoyed. Because Lin Feng's authority in the company is too heavy. The "Second World" itself was created by Lin Feng. It can be said that Lin Feng has contributed the most to its development to this day. Moreover, Lin Feng is the president of the company with a symbolic annual salary of $1. These various deeds make everyone unable to Go head-on against Lin Feng. This has advantages and disadvantages. Lin Feng fully understands his strengths and weaknesses.

It is not extraordinary wisdom or foresight that I can develop to this day. Lin Feng relies on only one thing-the memory of the future. But this memory will end in 2009. After 2009, how do I deal with more intense business struggles? This requires teamwork, not always relying on Lin Feng alone.

Therefore, this time everyone opposed Lin Feng's proposal at the same time. Instead of feeling angry, Lin Feng was very pleased. However, this plan must be implemented. As for everyone's opposition, Lin Feng believed that after they listened to his plan, everyone would no longer oppose it.

really! When Lin Feng told the whole story that the financing was actually to acquire some shares of "Nvidia", everyone was excited. Especially the two ministers of the hardware development department-Lu Zhiyi and He Guoyuan.

Lu Zhiyi has been troubled by the cruel fact that "amd" is technically far inferior to "Intel". Although "amd" has done its best, Lu Zhiyi must admit that the gap between "amd" and "Intel" is very large. , This is a gap. If it is the original "amd", Lu Zhiyi believes that he will never see "amd" catching up with "Intel" in his lifetime. This is just catching up, not catching up. But after joining the "Second World", Lu Zhiyi believed that he would be able to see "amd" surpass "Intel" in his lifetime, for sure!

But this will take a long time, and the "amd" in the middle cannot travel in any way, and "Intel" can't develop too fast. But now, the acquisition of "Nvidia" has given the "Second World" a shortcut to surpass "Intel". As long as you can control "Nvidia" and match the strength of "Second World", it is enough to compete with "Intel"!

If you use excitement to describe Lu Zhiyi, you can only use madness to describe He Guoyuan. As the founder of "ati" and the head of the "ati" hardware development department of "Second World", He Guoyuan deeply understands the power and excellence of "Nvidia". If the "Second World" can finance "Nvidia", my god, He Guoyuan will feel a burst of excitement from his bones when he thinks about it. Combining the technologies of the "Nvidia" and "ati" companies, the graphics card technology will take a step forward.

If it is really possible, I am afraid that in the future, the speed of the update of the graphics card will be faster than it is now!

As for those game development departments, the eyes are also shining. The more advanced the graphics card technology, the more perfect the game effects they developed can be displayed in front of the players. Especially the world war, which is about to be tested globally on New Year's Day next year, requires the support of graphics cards!

"Boss, this acquisition is okay!" Everyone opened their eyes and agreed with Lin Feng's proposal.

Lin Feng smiled. Sure enough, this proposal will definitely get everyone's approval. Although it is a little stretched in terms of funds, it is possible to complete the turnover of funds through banks. As for the company's too much debt, Lin Feng is not worried. Once it can acquire "Nvidia" and "Second World" has a sufficient weight of "Nvidia" stocks, the money can be earned back through the market. What's more, the stock price of "Second World" will definitely rise at that time, and it will be able to make a turnover by raising a little capital.

If the "Second World" had "Nvidia", it would definitely be a huge earthquake in the personal computer industry.

Just as Lin Feng was about to end the meeting, a discordant voice came.

"I object!" Abby Cohen's voice came.

Lin Feng held a three-party video conference. After all, this is about another major investment in the "Second World", so Lin Feng asked Abby Cohen to also listen. As a result, he did not expect that Abby Cohen, who originally thought Lin Feng should support him most, actually opposed his plan. You know, this is a plan that all company executives agree with. Lin Feng didn't expect Abby Cohen to oppose it.

"Abby, the reason!" Lin Feng asked.

Abby Cohen stroked his hair lightly.

"Boss, based on the current market value of Nvidia, it is about 4.82 billion U.S. dollars. If calculated at a premium of 150%, it will cost at least 7 billion U.S. dollars. Lin, if the second world invests about 3-4 billion U.S. dollars, then Almost 40% of the shareholding, including the distribution with the shareholders of Nvidia, it is estimated that the second world will be able to hold about 35% in the end. If you add the shares of the ati owned by the second world, this is already okay. Formed a monopoly in the graphics card market." Abby Cohen shook his head sighingly.

"At that time,'Intel' will definitely sue the U.S. antitrust organization in the name of'antitrust', so that once the U.S. government departments intervene, I am afraid it will be very bad. If you can't tell, it will force the company to split!" Abby -Cohen said.

After listening, everyone nodded again and again. Just now everyone was over-excited. They only thought of the benefits that the company would bring after financing "Nvidia", but did not think of the possible consequences after the financing.

Antitrust! If the US government really sued the anti-monopoly, it would be a disaster! At that time, "Intel" will probably laugh very cheaply!

"Abby, what do you think we should?" Lin Feng thought for a while and asked.

Abby Cohen smiled.

"Lin, this is actually very simple. In fact, since you established the'Second Consortium', the ties between the companies have not been close. This time is just an opportunity." Abby Cohen said.

Lin Feng remained silent after listening. Indeed, although I have established the "Second Consortium", in fact, among major companies, except for a few companies (such as "Tencent" and "Second World"), there is some cooperation between most companies. Do not interact with each other. This is completely different from the mutual shareholding of Japanese consortium companies. This connection is not close. The companies of the “Second Consortium” act as hubs for themselves, not the interests of the company.

This has advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that you can abandon some companies with poor assets at any time according to the actual situation, so as not to affect the operation of the entire group. But the downside is that the companies are not well connected and cannot work together to resist risks. And if there is any accident, the "Second Consortium" is very likely to fall apart.

"Lin, I propose that your bank contributes capital and cooperates with Oracle to raise Nvidia!" Abby Cohen said.

After listening to Lin Feng, he suddenly realized. The bank has been completely excluded from the numerous companies of its own "second consortium", and has hardly participated in any operation of the consortium except serving as a financial backing. This is not good. Now Abby Cohen proposes to finance "Nvidia" by his own bank, which is definitely the best way. Not only can the bank fully integrate into its own "Second Consortium" and participate in the operations among major companies, it can also solve funding problems. After all, if one's own bank always lends to the "Second World" at the lowest interest rate, that will cause much criticism. After all, the three banks under its control are all joint-stock banks, not their own private banks. Even if it is the "Second Bank", it actually owns more than 50% of it, but you must pay attention to the impression of the outside world. Otherwise, if the outside world does not invest too much, the "Second Bank" can be said to collapse or collapse!

"I see, Abby, thank you for your reminder!" Lin Feng said gratefully. If there is no reminder from Abby Cohen, then he has made two mistakes one after another.

The acquisition of "Nvidia" by the "Second World" is the first mistake, and the second mistake is to find a bank to continue to borrow heavily.

As for finding that bank to borrow, it couldn't be easier. The acquisition of "Nvidia" is to be able to have a certain right to speak in "Nvidia", and even a controlling stake. Naturally, the bank that invested in the acquisition can only be the "Second Bank" in which Lin Feng holds absolute controlling rights. Otherwise, if it is another bank, whether it is the "Bank of East Asia" or the "South African Standard Bank", if anyone in the middle makes things worse, then Lin Feng is depressed!
