#16 - Section: Business mutual praise
Commercial flattery, who wouldn't?
Lu Haifeng said, "Google was founded in 1998 and has become one of the top ten companies in the world in terms of market value today. This is truly gratifying. Today, they have acquired the system accelerator. Google's market value will definitely double. I congratulate you here on unifying the mobile phone operating system as soon as possible."
"Then, to borrow Mr. Lu's frankness, you are also the youngest rich man I have ever met," Smith replied.
The others watched the two of them standing there flattering each other. The one who regretted it the most was Park Xingcai, the president of Samsung's Greater China region. He had said the same thing yesterday. There were also two groups of people who were speechless, namely the people from Ali and Huawei's investment departments. When their investment department was valuing Huaxing, it was between 5 billion and 6 billion RMB. Now, someone is selling a technology for 2.6 billion US dollars. The numbers are not too different, but one is RMB and the other is US dollars. How can they invest? People have 10 to 20 billion in cash, but you say they are only worth 5 to 6 billion. Isn't that just freeloading? So they never spoke up.
"Mr. Lu, the money will be in your account within a week. Then we will leave first," Smith said.
Paying off 2.6 billion in one lump sum is also a burden for Google, but considering the significance of the system accelerator technology to the Android system, Smith still decided to bid for it, because the system accelerator can completely optimize the entire Android underlying layer and improve performance by 90%.
The Android system will completely crush Apple's ISO system. Google even has the opportunity to further increase the market share of the Android system.
Smith left Daxia Country that night, while the business team stayed behind to negotiate with Huaxing Technology. Lu Haifeng will be responsible for the technology handover. This transaction is not for the ownership of the software, but for the optimization technology of the operating system.
On the 28th of this month, Smith held a press conference in the United States,
Immediately attracting the attention of countless media, Smith was extremely confident in front of countless flashes, with a smile on his face:
"Thank you all for coming,"
"Today I want to announce good news to everyone,"
"We have acquired a company in Daxia Country's software for optimizing the Android system."
"We have optimized the underlying logic of the Android system with this technology. We will launch the latest version of the Android operating system on the first of next month."
"The smoothness of the latest version has been improved by 90% compared to the previous version, and the power consumption has been reduced by 40%."
After the press conference, the news spread. In just half an hour, Google's increase reached 10%, which further triggered investors' enthusiasm. For a time, Google made a lot of money, and Smith also received countless congratulations. Major shareholders and the two founders even called to encourage and reward him.
Lu Haifeng has been very busy recently, meeting with various domestic and foreign investment banks every day. These people are all coming with money.
Especially foreign investment banks, which are very active and offer very generous terms. This is the power of money. With money, you can invest in companies and then earn more money. The power of capital is infinite. When foreign investment banks first developed in Daxia Country, they invested in many large domestic companies with money and made a lot of money.
And now, Lu Haifeng is facing the investment负责人 of Goldman Sachs's Greater China region. Goldman Sachs International is the most excellent and largest investment company in the world. The other party has offered a very excellent price?
One billion US dollars for 10% of the shares. Lu Haifeng remained unmoved. No matter what conditions the other party offered, he was not interested and refused them all. And Lu Haifeng notified his secretary, Xiao Ai, to refuse to meet with anyone who came to invest.
It's too much time to waste talking to these incomprehensible nonsense.
……
On the sixth day, the money had arrived.
Huaxing Technology has obtained a piece of land next to the old factory, which can be used to build its own Huaxing Industrial Base. After the original old factory buildings are demolished, they can be connected into one piece.
The entire base is designed according to the highest specifications, and a large, high-precision laboratory will also be built. As everyone knows, laboratory specifications are extremely high, and the cost is extremely high.
The entire park will be designed as a large factory that can accommodate hundreds of thousands of people, and will have various facilities, such as canteens, supermarkets, gyms, cinemas, and even commercial streets. After all, Huaxing Technology's employees and workers cannot just eat, go to work, and get off work. There are also various entertainment facilities. Because the amount of work is huge, it can only be built slowly.
Lu Haifeng went to the laboratory and asked Lu Hong:
"Lao Lu, have our chips been taped out yet?"
"President Lu, only some of the chips have been taped out," Lu Hong replied.
It seems that I need to build my own chip factory. Lu Haifeng returned to the office and called Xiao Ai, "Go and call Manager Zhang to my office."
After Xiao Ai went out, Zhang Yu arrived soon. "President Lu, you're looking for me?"
"How is the factory? Is it renovated?"
"It's already renovated. The intelligent production line has been fully debugged and can be put into production directly.
"Then put it into production directly!" "I have re-ordered five intelligent production lines from foreign research institutions, two intelligent headset production lines, one data production line and charger production line. They will arrive in two or three days. When you debug them, you can put them aside first."
"Also, a large laboratory will be built behind the old factory. You go to the personnel department and ask them to recruit some technicians."
"Then what kind of technicians should we recruit?"
"We need people from all fields. As long as they are technicians, we need them. Also, build another chip factory on the left."
"Also, notify the cooperative headhunting company to recruit talents and elites in the semiconductor industry."
Hearing Lu Haifeng's words, Zhang Yu was a little confused. Huaxing Technology is developing rapidly, and the demand for talent is also very high. Ordinary recruitment naturally cannot keep up with the speed, so cooperation with headhunting companies is natural. A new company wants to develop, it needs talent. Ordinary recruitment is too slow, so it must find headhunters to help.
"President Lu, are we going to enter the chip manufacturing industry?" Zhang Yu asked.
The chip industry mainly has two types, one is companies that can produce, and the other is designing chips. It is rare to have both.
