Who knew it was a cell phone!
He said in a tone that seemed designed to slap the other person in the face, "Henry, we may be friends, but Motorcycle rejected Rice's offer before. Why should I cooperate with you guys? What's in it for me?!"
"We can give you money."
"I don't lack money. If I did, I could just go to Wall Street and make a fuss. The investors who want to give me money would line up from the East Coast to the West Coast. Do you believe me?"
"Then what do you want?" Henry asked, sounding disgruntled.
"I want all of Motorola's chip patents, not just usage rights, but a buyout. Sell me everything you can, and I also want your chip design team to design a few chips for me," Xing Baohua said, making an outrageous demand.
"Xing, you know this is impossible."
Xing Baohua slammed his hand on the coffee table in front of him, using a bit too much force, which made it sting and leave him feeling numb.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Then how did you know that you would sell the patent for my rice phone?"
"These are different; they are two different concepts."
"In my view, it's just a concept, it's business. There's nothing you can't buy in the capital market, unless you don't have the money. Don't you think so, Henry?" Xing Baohua asked with a hint of sarcasm.
Henry's expression remained calm, and he didn't seem to care about Xing Baohua's tone. He even advised, "You should go to Wall Street less often. Look at you, they've corrupted you. Let me tell you, there are many things that money really can't buy."
These words left Xing Baohua speechless, and she could only manage to say, "You..."
Okay, Xing Baohua admits that once Western countries put money aside, you really can't buy it by waving your money around.
They're afraid that if they sell to you, you'll learn the techniques and squeeze out their market share.
Motorcycles sold their two-way paging technology to rice companies, squeezing out their market share. The former market leader, what has become of them? Only dignity and pretense remain.
The talks weren't very friendly, mainly because Xing Baohua was angry. Now that the conditions have been stated, hopefully Henry will consider them.
Before leaving, Xing Baohua told Henry to learn from IBM. They'd already sold off their outdated chips; why weren't they selling them off? They were just keeping them to breed more. He added, "Think about Moore's Law; the update cycle is 18-24 months."
As times progress, so does technology.
If we won't sell new technology, then we'll sell old technology.
Xing Baohua left Henry's room and went to the Desert Prince's room.
There are some things that need to be clarified. Although the shareholders have changed, his shareholding has not changed, and he continues to invest. The interests of the Desert Consortium are protected.
Stabilizing the desert team is equivalent to stabilizing the funding.
Director Min reported the wafer fab situation to his superiors and explained Xing Baohua's plan in detail.
He explained that Xing Baohua was afraid the other party would give him a humiliating treaty, so he had made a step-by-step plan in advance.
If he could successfully use the imported equipment, he continued to secretly cultivate the technical skills of his own people, and also mentioned the branch factory in Dongcheng.
In response, the top leaders of the Shanghai Stock Exchange held a special meeting to fully support the use of both imported and domestically produced equipment. However, the question remains: will the originally announced investment of 12 billion yuan be reduced due to the lack of imported equipment?
It has indeed shrunk, by a third.
The Shanghai Stock Exchange believes that since investment has decreased, they no longer need to work so hard to make up the numbers; they can calculate the proportion based on the actual investment.
If there's too much, they start to cut back; if there's too little, they let the wafer fabs invest themselves.
The next day, Philips' Davis left with his team and his arrogance.
Henry from Motorbike was still struggling when, after receiving a call from headquarters, he also left with his team.
The relationship between rice and motorcycles has reached a freezing point.
IBM and Motorola have different strategies. Both companies value the future development of the mainland market and made early investments and participated early on.
Therefore, without making too many demands on IBM, the Shanghai wafer fab agreed to take a stake.
One day later, the Shanghai wafer fab was officially established and renamed Huaxia Guoxin.
Xing Baohua was appointed as chairman.
Xie Yingying also successfully became the company secretary.
The remaining board members are China Merchants Group, Shanghai Stock Exchange, Desert Consortium, and IBM.
Once the company is established and the board of directors is confirmed, how much information should be released?
This has attracted the attention of many investment institutions around the world.
Because the investment comes from the Investment Promotion Bureau and the Desert Consortium, they want a piece of the pie. They're asking around the world if any further investment is needed.
When will the Series A funding round take place, and what are the investment terms?
Banks associated with Xing Baohua also began to curry favor with him. They were interested in when and where Huaxia Guoxin would go public, and they wanted to acquire Huaxia Guoxin's IPO shares.
Although Huaxia Guoxin's investment has shrunk considerably, Xing Baohua still insists on claiming an investment of 12 billion yuan.
Even if outsiders know that Huaxia Guoxin's investment has shrunk, they can't see the financial reports! No one except the shareholders can see the detailed reports.
Even so, there are still quite a few people who want to take advantage of Huaxia Guoxin.
Xing Baohua never expected that the IBM team would ultimately take the lead.
Huaxia Guoxin will allocate one billion US dollars to allow IBM to fully develop its management system services.
This money has to be spent. I bought this service before and it worked well.
In the early stages of factory construction, staffing, management, and other aspects all require professional management concepts, which is something we need to learn.
In addition to these, there is also technical learning, with IBM also providing service concepts and technical guidance.
These are services outside of high-end equipment, and IBM is a good teacher in this regard.
If we're talking about putting in effort, the motorcycles actually put in more effort.
