Sprinkle coins every day

Chapter 357 Pingguo confesses, the new head of Daosuke Group is in place, and walks on two legs!

In the office, Lu Kai is reporting to work.

"Mr. Zhang, the acquisition of 25% shares of Baishi Express in Ari's hands has been settled. The final purchase price negotiated is 4.2 million. After the acquisition is completed, Pinxixi Group will wholly own Baishi Express."

"very good."

Zhang Shuo was quite surprised that Ari withdrew from Baishi voluntarily, thinking that Ari would increase capital accordingly.

As a result, he simply withdrew.

In this way, Baishi has become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pinxixi Group, and there is no problem of capital increase. It can directly express to Baishi, or Qingfeng Baishi, to transfer operating funds.

The program will definitely be much more convenient.

After Ari withdrew, although Qingfeng Baishi will still provide express services for Ari, it is obvious that the two parties will downgrade from the previous strategic cooperation relationship to ordinary commercial cooperation.

Qingfeng Baishi will also focus on Pinxixi's business.

It was tantamount to Ahri cutting off his own arm.

"In addition, Jingdong will launch the D2 round of financing. Jingdong actively invited us to participate. The specific investment amount needs to be determined by Mr. Zhang." Lu Kai continued to report.

"Sprout just follows the investment and ensures that the shares are not diluted, so don't go to war."

For Jingdong, Zhang Shuo has no greater ambitions. Although Brother Dong is very righteous and actively invites Germination to join the game, he does not want to "take advantage of others' danger" and continue to expand his shareholding in Jingdong.

That would make Brother Dong feel uneasy, and it's completely unnecessary.

"understood."

With Zhang Shuo's instructions, Lu Kai will naturally handle the next thing properly, and then he talked about another investment, "According to Luo Chang'an's feedback, their inspection of Licheng Technology went smoothly. Maybe it's Because of the Dream Fund, Licheng Technology is also very active in this acquisition."

"That's good."

Zhang Shuo was also relieved, it can be seen that launching the Dream Fund is indeed a wonderful move.

.........

Just when Zhang Shuo was busy.

Because "Legend of Dota" and "Summoner" were suddenly taken off the shelves of IOS, disputes broke out again on the Internet.

"What the hell? Why did Pingguo take "Legend of the Sword Tower" off the shelves? I'm just playing it."

"Looking at the notice, it seems to be due to a security protocol issue."

"Bullshit security protocol, just playing a game, what security loopholes can there be?"

"that is!"

"Besides, Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment is not a new company. It has developed so many mobile games and has never had any problems before. How come two new games were taken off the shelves at once?"

"Don't you understand? Think about what happened last weekend."

"So, this is Pingguo's revenge on Germinal? This is really too nasty!"

"To be honest, it's really tasteless."

"The crack in the wall requires Pingguo to be put back on the shelves quickly, I protest!!!"

"As an Android user, I sympathize with Pingguo users (dog head)..."

"Damn it, I was still hesitating whether to change to Pingguo 5 or Wheat X1. Now I don't have to hesitate. I decided to choose Wheat X1. Pingguo looks too ugly."

"That's right, Pingguo doesn't care about the interests of Huaxia consumers at all, it's too arrogant."

"Let's see what Guofan says this time."

Of course, Pingguo users have no F*** to say, and no way to complain.

And soon, Jade Bird Huyu responded, first condemning the unreasonable removal of "Legend of Dota" and "Summoner", and then announced the update plan for the new version of "Clash of Clans".

Note that this update does not include North America.

Netizens were delighted at once.

"Sure enough, in this area, the germination system never disappoints."

"Blue Bird did a great job!"

"For this barbaric act of Pingguo, you can fight back with fire."

"Comfortable, comfortable."

"I just like Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment, which prefers to bend rather than bend, and directly confronts the front."

"If Ping really wants to have a backbone, he will remove all mobile games under Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment."

"Ping Guo: I dare not, I don't."

"Long Pingguo doesn't have the courage. If it is really going to be removed from the shelves, then the global users of Pingguo will have to be halved at least."

"So, if you want to deal with Pingguo's bullying, you have to master some secret weapons, like Tengda, even if you are targeted by Pingguo, you probably won't be able to do anything about it."

"Tengda: It has been connoted."

"We should be self-improving. I hope that the Maili mobile phone can really kill Pingguo one day."

"Don't talk about it, I went to Maili's official website to place an order, and I must support a wave."

This time and again, Jade Bird Huyu has regained face, not to mention, causing Pingguo's reputation in China to decline again, and even some fruit fans can't stand it anymore.

It is also a show operation.

.........

Pingguo Huaxia District Headquarters.

"Is this a threat to Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment?" Tao Feilin, the president of China District, looked embarrassed.

"Calculate!"

Sitting opposite Tao Feilin was James, Vice President of Pingguo Huaxia District.

He is also the actual speaker of the company.

For nothing else, James is from Pingguo headquarters, so he is naturally superior in the company.

Tao Feilin is more of a mascot.

"Tao, this turmoil was entirely caused by you. You need to report to the headquarters in person to resolve this matter." Compared to Tao Feilin's apprehension, James was more at ease.

It's none of your business, hang up high.

"I"

The expression on Tao Feilin's face became even more embarrassing.

Because of the birth of Maili X1, and the lack of supervision in Pingguo Huaxia District, she has already been reprimanded by the Pingguo headquarters, and now she will face scolding again.

The doormat has been hammered.

This time, the inclusion of wheat grain X1 on the scarf is not only a marketing need, but it also means to use the public for personal gain and secretly take revenge on the wheat grain group.

Unfortunately.

Tao Feilin kicked the iron plate again, and after that, he was even more difficult to get off. In a flash of enthusiasm, he chose to be tough with the Maili Group, and even made his own claim, threatening to release the new game of Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment.

Thinking that this would tame Germination, forcing Germination to bow its head.

As a result, Cyan Bird Huyu changed hands and sent a counterattack, pointing directly at Pingguo's vitals.

It was really hit by Zhang Shuo, Pingguo didn't dare to take the risk of completely tearing his face with Jade Bird Huyu, just for such a small friction, it's not worth it at all.

Inside is all delicate calculations.

Looking at James' expression of "nothing to do with me", Tao Feilin was depressed, but he didn't dare to attack. Of course, he wouldn't worry too much, the worst would be to be reprimanded by the headquarters.

It's not that he hasn't been scolded.

As for whether she will be dismissed from the headquarters, Tao Feilin is not very worried. She was selected by Pingguo as the president of Huaxia District not because of her outstanding ability, but because of her connections in China.

As long as there is this layer of amulet, she can be kept safe and sound.

.........

Two days later, on November 11, Dream Fund and Dao Sui Group officially issued an acquisition request to Licheng Technology, and the acquisition price was US$22 billion.

About 116 billion.

In order to dispel some concerns of Licheng Technology, the acquisition memorandum also clearly stated that in this joint acquisition, Dream Fund will hold 55% of the shares, and Dao Sui Group will hold 45% of the shares.

In other words, Dream Fund will have a controlling stake in Licheng Technology.

Otherwise, the acquisition will be difficult to proceed.

Licheng Technology immediately held a board meeting, and in principle passed the joint acquisition request of Dream Fund and Inao Group, followed by specific acquisition negotiations.

Not to mention this.

Just when the acquisition of Licheng Technology was going smoothly, there was also good news from Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment.

Not surprisingly, Pingguo chose to compromise, and soon lifted the forced removal of "Legend of Dota" and "Summoner", but did not publicly apologize.

Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment did not refuse to give up, but accepted it as soon as it was good.

A small-scale, small-scale collision finally ended with a compromise between the two parties, but everyone knew that the conflict between Pingguo and Germination would not be resolved because of this.

Quite the opposite.

The grievances between the two sides will only deepen, and eventually a larger-scale collision will break out.

This also gave Zhang Shuo a sense of crisis.

Pingguo previously dissed Maili X1 on the scarf, mocking that the chip and operating system of Maili X1 were not self-developed. Although it was boycotted by Chinese netizens, it is indeed true.

On the chip side.

With the advent of the Candle Dragon chip next year, it should be able to make up for the shortcomings soon.

Even walking in front of Pingguo.

Only the operating system, the MILI system wants to completely get rid of the traces of the Android system, start anew, and still be above the standard, it is actually very difficult.

What Zhang Shuo can think of is the original space-time Hongmeng.

If memory serves me right, the original Space-Time Warwick started planning the Hongmeng system in 2012, that is, this year, and it was not officially announced until 2019.

It took seven years in between.

The time is not short, but the development of an operating system is definitely not too long.

Taking Android as an example, the research and development of Android began around 2005, and it was released to the public in 2007. In 2011, it replaced the old Symbian system and became the first and became the mainstream operating system.

It took six years before and after.

If it is to benchmark against the Android system, then whether it is the MILI system or Hongmeng, it seems that they started a bit late, and they may not be able to keep up with the pace of development of the other party.

Just like Hongmeng in the original time and space.

When it was born in 2019, Android at that time had undergone multiple iterations, and each iteration solved many of the previous problems.

Each iteration makes Android more and more powerful.

The apps on the Android system are also rich enough. Almost all mainstream and non-mainstream apps in the mobile phone market support the Android system.

Once a strong ecological chain has been formed, it is difficult to break through.

It is no wonder that some people say that Hongmeng is just a low-end version of Android. When it first came out, it could only achieve [-]% of the performance of Android, and there are still many shadows of Android.

It has not been fully recognized by consumers.

In fact, Hongmeng is not actually the second Android. If it is the benchmark Android, it will lose from the beginning.If you want to succeed, you can't follow the path that others have walked.

It should have belonged to the next decade.

As we all know, both Android and IOS systems were developed ten years ago.

Even though they have gone through countless iterative improvements now, the underlying logic in their bones is actually the same set ten years ago——

"They are still systems designed for terminals and apps in the 4G network era."

More directly, they are designed for mobile phones.

The simplest question is: How can a Pingguo mobile phone and a Pingguo computer achieve deep data, resource and even hardware sharing between the two?
At the beginning of their operating system design, has this kind of sharing been considered?
IOS has indeed achieved the sharing of some data and functions, but so far it has not been able to achieve the amazing in-depth sharing.

Although Android and IOS have gained a rich ecology by virtue of their first-mover advantage, they also suffered a big loss because of their first-mover advantage-the development of hardware is too fast, and there are too many new scenarios, which can no longer keep up.

So far, the main battlefield of Android and IOS is still on mobile phones.

The operating systems of tablets, watches, and cars are mostly specialized products derived from Android and IOS, such as Lite OS and Android Auto.

Pure Android and IOS are actually not well adapted to these later hardware.

Even Pingguo himself can't stand this phenomenon. The first-generation Ipad was directly installed with the Iphone OS system, which was later changed to IOS, and now it has become Ipad OS.

The system for that era will not be able to meet the needs of the future era after all.

But Hongmeng is different.

When Hongmeng was born, the world had reached the dawn of 5G, "Internet of Everything" had become a commonplace technology direction, and "creating a system compatible with all platforms" had long been a basic consensus.

The back wave will always beat the front wave to death on the sand.

It's not because the previous waves are not good, but because the latecomers are ahead. After all, Hongmeng has been designed from the very beginning to be "facing the future" and "connecting everything possible".

But Hongmeng is not without weaknesses, the biggest weakness is that it appeared too late!
Zhang Shuo couldn't wait.

The Maili mobile phone also can't wait, and must come up with finished products in the next three to four years.

But it's easy to say, but if you really want to make it, it's not that simple, and it's not something that can be done by simply throwing money into it.

otherwise.

There will be no Nokia's collapse in the smartphone market.

Even Samsung, didn't it finally succumb to Android?

To develop an operating system that is qualified and even surpasses Android in terms of underlying logic in a very short period of time requires a strong technical accumulation in the communication field.

What Germination lacks the most is the background in this aspect.

Therefore, Zhang Shuo said that the shortcut he can think of is to unite, unite with Huawei, it is best to set up a joint venture company, and try to get Hongmeng out a few years in advance!
.........

Zhang Shuo was thinking about it when Gu Mingzhang knocked on the door and came in, followed by a middle-aged man.

"Mr. Zhang, let me introduce. This is the one I mentioned to you earlier, Mr. Lin Zhengdong, the global vice president of Intel, has left the Intel and officially joined the Sprout Group." Gu Mingzhang introduced with a smile.

"welcome!"

Seeing this, Zhang Shuo stood up and greeted him with a smile.

"Mr. Zhang, I've admired you for a long time."

As an industry leader of the same level as Gu Mingzhang, Lin Zhengdong was not cautious, but he gave enough respect to Zhang Shuo, a business legend.

This is the case in shopping malls, where the strong are respected.

The current Germination Group is very different from the Germination Group when Gu Mingzhang first joined more than a year ago. Both its size and profitability have more than doubled.

Even if it is placed among global high-tech companies, it can barely be called a "giant".

Of course.

Compared with a real global giant like Entel, it is still a little bit less interesting.

Among other things, just taking 2012 as an example, Intel is expected to achieve a net profit of US$110 billion, and its profitability is far higher than that of the entire Sprout Group.

It will be different next year.

With Maili Group starting to make profits, Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment's game business is also booming. Even if it is the most conservative estimate, it is not a big problem for Buds to achieve a profit of 60 billion next year.

It may even surpass Yingtel in one fell swoop.

That's why, after receiving Gu Mingzhang's invitation, Lin Zhengdong resigned from his position as the global vice president of Yingtel without much hesitation, and turned to join the Sprout Group.

Even if it is just to be the president of Dao Sui Group, a subsidiary of Germination Group, it would be a blessing.

Because only in the bud, Lin Zhengdong can truly gain 100% trust, truly grasp the real power, truly display all his talents, and make a big splash in the semiconductor industry.

Just like Gu Mingzhang.

After the unprecedented success of Maili X1, Gu Mingzhang, the president of Maili Group, has already attracted much attention among executives in the global mobile phone industry.

its influence.

How could it be comparable to what it was when I was at Nokia?
Career really ushered in the second spring.

"Boss Lin, I want to ask you a question." Zhang Shuo was straight-tempered.

"Please speak."

Lin Zhengdong sat upright.

"If the Germination Headquarters can meet all the capital needs of the Daoear Group, whether it is 10 billion, 100 billion, or even more funds. How long will it take to build the Daoear Group into the next Yingtel?"

Zhang Shuo made no secret of his ambitions in the semiconductor field.

"Uh, this..."

Lin Zhengdong was startled immediately, he didn't know if the new boss was joking or really meant it.

Think about it.

Lin Zhengdong said hesitantly, "I'm afraid it will be difficult to realize this."

"why?"

"First of all, when Dao Sui Group is developing forward, Yingtel will not stop. In addition, semiconductor technology is changing with each passing day. It may be difficult to catch up." Lin Zhengdong said.

As far as he is concerned, it is also hard to believe that there will be a second Weintel on a global scale.

"Then why can't we take small steps to catch up quickly, or even overtake on a curve?" Zhang Shuo didn't think so, "Just like Huaxia did in the fields of high-speed rail, UHV power transmission, aerospace and other fields."

If after establishing a leading edge, you can lead forever, then the world will not be what it is now.

There are many latecomers.

"I don't deny that what you said is indeed a very remarkable achievement, but the semiconductor industry is different from these!"

Lin Zhengdong is obviously also very human.

"What's the difference?" Zhang Shuo insisted.

"First of all, the semiconductor industry has been a pillar industry of the beautiful country so far, and even in the foreseeable future, and will always be the jewel in the crown of industry."

The implication is that something like high-speed rail has special conditions for its existence.

Because the investment and demand of developed countries in this area are not large, but on the contrary, China's investment and demand in this area are the largest in the world. Relying on market demand, it has given birth to the upgrading of technology.

Semiconductors are different.

Today, semiconductor-related technologies, from semiconductor software, to chip design, to core technologies such as lithography machines, are still in the hands of Pretty Country.

you can say it this way--

The beautiful country holds the key to the semiconductor industry, so it has no fear.

"Inaosui Group wants to make a difference in the semiconductor industry. Every step forward is full of thorns, and there are almost no shortcuts." Lin Zhengdong elaborated his point of view.

This is not to say that Lin Zhengdong has no fighting spirit, no dreams, etc. Otherwise, he would not resign from Yingtel's position and resolutely join Germination.

That said, I just want Zhang Shuo, the new boss, to recognize the cruel reality of the semiconductor industry.

The road ahead can be described as long.

"It's hard, but it's not impossible, isn't it?" Zhang Shuo is determined and will not be frightened by the difficulties in front of him. Only when there are difficulties and challenges, do he do it more. A sense of accomplishment.

"Yes."

Of course, Lin Zhengdong also has ambitions, otherwise he would not have chosen to join Inaho Group, and said with a smile: "Inaho Group's current acquisition plan for Licheng Technology and Hitachi Storage is actually to give full play to the power of capital and try our best to shorten the accumulation time in the early stage, and realize another form of small steps and fast running.”

Money may not be everything, but the value of capital cannot be denied.

Through acquisitions, it is undoubtedly better to quickly acquire mature technical reserves and talent reserves, and then start new research and development on this basis, than to start from scratch.

At least ten years of work can be saved.

It must be admitted that even in China, they do not have no foundation in the semiconductor industry, and they have accumulated a lot of wealth, but there is still a little gap from the world's advanced level.

What Inaho Group has to do is to make up for the gap in a certain field.

"As for, if you want to achieve cornering overtaking in the semiconductor industry, then your vision should not be limited to this generation of semiconductor technology, but to lay out the next generation of technology in advance."

Just catching up step by step will never become a surpasser.

In this regard, Huaxia actually has a wealth of experience. It not only completed the homework of the first three industrial revolutions in a very short period of time, but also tried to lead the new industrial revolution.

"The next generation of technology, do you mean quantum chips?" Zhang Shuo's eyes flashed.

"That's it." Lin Zhengdong was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that the new boss had such a deep understanding of the semiconductor industry. "The existing chip structure has its limit. Generally, the industry predicts that 2nm chips may be the limit."

"If you want to make further breakthroughs, you need to develop new fields such as quantum chips."

Of course, the quantum chip is only a concept at present. It can only be said that it may be a new form of chips in the future, but it is still too early to say whether it is the only form.

But no matter what.

For the current Inaosui Group, betting in the field of quantum chips in advance is the most likely to succeed.

"very good!"

Although it was the first time we met and the conversation was not long, Lin Zhengdong left a good impression on Zhang Shuo, and said with a smile: "As you said, the Dao Sui Group will walk on two legs in the future. support!"

"Thank you Mr. Zhang."

Lin Zhengdong was also determined, and finally passed the final interview.
