Reborn, you call this an honest person?

Since Qualcomm is out of stock, there is nothing to talk about. Mr. Lei can only choose a lower-grade burst. As for Huahua, there is no need to think about it at all. Who doesn't know that the output of Huahua is only enough for them to use...

After Mr. Lei left Qualcomm, Wang Heng soon received news from an informant from Qualcomm.

Although Qualcomm did not supply to Mr. Lei, Qualcomm internally began to raise the price of chips. Especially after the developer conference, OPPO, vivo and other domestic mobile phone manufacturers have consulted Qualcomm chips, which further prompted Qualcomm executives to decide to sell to Honor. The chip price increases,
Originally, regardless of computer or mobile phone spare parts, the larger the purchase volume, the cheaper it is, and the older the version, the cheaper it is. Electronic products are originally updated quickly.
However, Qualcomm did the opposite, which made Wang Heng unbearable. This made Wang Heng feel that he was the richest man in the world, and Qualcomm was jealous!want to kill a pig,

Honor mobile phones also held an interim meeting on the price increase of Qualcomm chips.
After Xu Wenhua finished talking about Qualcomm's opinion,
Wang Heng said directly, "Let them make the orders in the contract first, and as for the future chips, I will think of other ways."

There are two chip suppliers for Honor mobile phones, one is Qualcomm and the other is Lianfa. Qualcomm has raised prices, but Lianfa has no news.
Wang Heng didn't mention bursting, Xu Wenhua subconsciously felt that Wang Heng wanted to do something, so he couldn't help asking curiously,
"Mr. Wang, do you want to honor the production of chips by yourself?"

Wang Heng nodded and said,

"Yes, let's look up other than Lianfa and Qualcomm, there are other companies that research and produce chips. Hengda Group bought them and supplied them to Honor."

Under the financial crisis, many companies around the world went bankrupt, and their market capitalization was less than a fraction of what it was in 07. Therefore, the Glory team has no objection to buying a chip factory to produce by itself.

What's more, with Hengda Group's money, although Honor mobile phone earned more than 200 billion, it didn't pay dividends, and it was used to build Honor's headquarters building, industrial park, etc.
Since Glory wants to break up with Hua, and everything has to be restarted, it will naturally cost a lot of money.

The Honor Industrial Park is naturally designed for the hardware supply chain of Honor Mobile. When the time comes, the upstream and downstream industrial chains of Honor Mobile will move to the Industrial Park of Honor Mobile, which will definitely provide convenience for the production of Honor Mobile.

……

In less than half an hour, Honor's executives found a bunch of chip manufacturers, but they were all chip manufacturers with only production lines and no research and development capabilities.

Before the Honor smartphone came out, all kinds of counterfeit phones, and even some domestic brand phones used this kind of brand-name chips.
After the Honor smartphone came out, these copycat phones closed down one after another, and domestic brand phones also stopped production one after another, resulting in a large number of chip manufacturers also closing down.

Naturally, Wang Heng would not buy this kind of chip if he wants to do business. What he wants is a chip manufacturing plant with R&D capabilities.

Spending money on research and development, he dares to compare with Huawei now,
For Wang Heng's request, Glory executives quickly found a suitable company.

"Boss, look at this company!"

As Xu Wenhua said, he moved the laptop in front of Wang Heng,

"Sony? They also engage in chip research and development?"

For Sony, Wang Heng still has a little impression. In order to promote Weibo, he bought a music company, and later sold it to Sony at a loss.
After that, Wang Heng shorted Sony stock again, causing Sony's market value to drop nearly three times.
It happened that Wang Heng bought Yuna Island. He wanted the remaining 888 million square meters of land and wanted to get rid of the 1600 islanders.
To do several things together, he decided to go to Neon Country to see,

Although Wang Heng didn't dare to go abroad, he was afraid that the beautiful country would harbor evil intentions, but he still dared to go to the Neon country.

As long as there are more bodyguards, no one should come to assassinate him. He heard that people in the Neon Kingdom admire the strong most,
He even likes to be the dog of the strong, so as long as you are strong, you can conquer them. Wang Heng is very confident about this. After all, he is the richest man in the world, isn't he strong enough?
……

After Wang Heng arrived in Neon Country with dozens of teams, he went straight to the location of Sony's company.

Sony executives were very surprised when they learned that Wang Heng intended to buy Sony's chip business.

After several contacts between the two parties, on the afternoon of the third day, the bosses of the two parties formally met for a meeting in a business hotel.

Today, Nobuyuki Idei is no longer the head of the Sony giant group.

Three years ago, he handed over the position of Sony CEO to Hod Stringer, who was 63 years old at the time, and this Briton, who joined Sony in 1997, has been in charge of entertainment departments such as film and music for many years.

There is general skepticism about Idei's decision inside and outside Sony.

After all, the name Sony is a symbol of the manufacturing industry in Neon Country, and it is unbelievable to hand over such a head of the family to someone who has two cultures completely different from Sony.

Sony's coaching change is different from the passive coaching changes of other companies in Neon Country due to the change of major shareholders, but it is entirely due to the full efforts of Nobuyuki Idei.

Under the background of the strong culture of the Neon Country, it is absolutely impossible to achieve such a result without the fortitude of "I will do it even if I die" and the calmness of planning and action.

There is a reason why this neon country electronics giant can stand on the brink of a series of bankruptcy.

According to the annual report released in May this year, Nobuyuki Idei can finally breathe a sigh of relief. Although Sony’s stock has plummeted, Sony’s main business of electronic products has doubled its profits, surpassing Panasonic, and regained the top spot in Neon Country’s electronics companies.

However, this is not good news for Wang Heng, who wants to acquire Sony's chip business. It means that Sony indirectly has greater bargaining power.

Sony has been going bankrupt for the past few years, but now it seems that it has calmed down. After all, in the general environment, there are still a lot of companies worse than Sony.

It's like worse than bad. Under the financial crisis, everyone is swimming naked. It's clear at a glance who is worse. This is equivalent to another difficulty for Sony.
Of course, this is not good news for Wang Heng, which also brought some variables to his acquisition of Sony's chip business.

At this time, sitting opposite Wang Heng was an Englishman, that is, Hod Stringer, the current head of Sony, and the eyes of the two sides were looking at each other without hesitation.

For the young man sitting in front of him who is only a third of his own age, Hod didn't have any contempt for this giant in the technology and business world.
"Mr. Wang, I'm very curious why you are interested in Sony's chips?"

Hod asked bluntly in his opening remarks. This is a question Sony executives began to study after learning about the wishes of the Honor mobile phone.

Hod didn't expect to get a real reply from the other party.

"We are here to make friends. Sony is a great consumer electronics empire. Honor very much hopes to form an alliance with such a company. We believe that future winners will not be obtained through competition, but cooperation."

In fact, this kind of negotiation could have been handed over to other people. In addition to doing business, Wang Heng also wanted to see the special products of the Neon Kingdom.
After all, the special products of the Neon Country had always been his comfort in his previous life, and now he came to take a look when he had the chance, so the work was actually a cover-up.

Wang Heng doesn't know the pronunciation of Neon, but it doesn't matter that both sides have translators,
"make friends?"

Hod couldn't help laughing, looking directly at the other party,

"I've never seen a friend like this. When I first came up, I got a glimpse of the Cell processor project that has spent more than 40 billion US dollars in painstaking efforts."

"But Cell has become the biggest joke in the history of chips." Wang Heng said looking at the information in his hand.

It's true that which pot is not opened and which pot is lifted, Huo De is a little angry,

"Then why are you still interested in Cell?"

"So, we're here to make friends."

The words went back and forth, leaving Hod dumb for a moment, but after a moment he said,
"Sony is also very happy to make friends with Honor, but it should not be at the expense of the Cell business. We will not sell this business. Sony has already fully escaped the crisis, and the Cell processor is jointly developed by Sony, IBM and Toshiba. It is not Sony who has the final say on the sale of products.”

Hod officially took the helm of the electronics empire in 2005. At that time, Sony was in a difficult period. As soon as he took office, he announced "the mid-to-long-term corporate strategy to revive the electronics business and strengthen the group's performance." The company will focus on the three major The core business areas are deeply cultivated, namely: electronics, games, film and television entertainment, and its strategy focuses on strengthening the competitiveness of the group company, especially the revitalization of the electronics business.

The research and development investment of the Cell processor exceeds 40 billion U.S. dollars, and the cost has not been recovered after so many years. For Sony, this price is a bit too heavy.

Still, sales of Sony's PS3 console are improving thanks to price cuts and a shortage of Nintendo's Wii console, which has sold 3 units a week in North America and Europe since last year's Black Friday. Weekly sales can also reach around 20 to 40 units.

If this trend continues, by 2009 next year, the hole in the Cell chip should be filled. Of course, if this non-performing asset can be sold, Sony's accounts will immediately become gorgeous.

But the price is still heavy, because this is equivalent to Sony doing nothing in [-], while competitors are making continuous progress, and the invisible losses in this are immeasurable.

Not only have we been busy for so many years, but in an era of rapid technological progress, being delayed for six or seven years is simply a catastrophic blow.

The price is that Sony's dream and ambition to revive its past glory have basically been declared bankrupt. The opponent is already far ahead, and now the taillights of the dumped cars can't be seen.

Today's Sony, the PS4 under development is no longer noisy, and honestly chooses Intel's x86 architecture,

Does Sony really not want to make trouble?Of course not, but there is no capital to make a fuss. This year's financial crisis has cost Sony a lot.

After all, at the beginning, no one wants to see their company's stock price drop, especially when the company's money is spent to buy back stock.
However, after paying the capital, unable to withstand the general trend, he could only choose to lie flat,
At this moment, holding Sony's black information, Wang Heng turned into a negotiator and continued talking with the other party.

On the surface, Sony is like a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water, and still treats Cell as a treasure,
In fact, Wang Heng's team couldn't hide the information from the investigation, so Wang Heng was convinced of the other party, and Sony was actually in a state of hesitation and entanglement.

On the one hand, they really want to sell it, and the reason is very simple. Few people are willing to carry an oil bottle, but at the same time, although the dream is shattered, it is still lingering in their hearts.

After figuring out what the other party wants so as to prescribe the right medicine, Huo De suddenly asked,

"Mr. Wang, I suddenly feel... Are you really here to make friends with Sony? I seriously doubt that you want to enter the console market. You are a terrible competitor, and Sony will not be fooled!"

After finishing speaking, Ho De looked at Wang Heng with firm eyes.

"Glory won't enter, and neither will Hengda. Don't worry about that. I never thought about entering the game console market.

The acquisition of the chip business is mainly for the Honor mobile phone, in order to prevent Qualcomm and Lianfa from getting stuck... Wait! "

Wang Heng came to his senses, why did he reveal his old background?

However, when he finished speaking, Hod's translator didn't listen to him, and directly translated his words to Hod,
Huo De didn't believe all of Wang Heng's gaffes, but only half of them, or even less.

However, one thing is certain, even if a consensus can be reached on this M&A transaction, it cannot be completed within three or two days.

After a while, Hod asked, "How much is your company willing to bid?"

Hearing this sentence, Wang Heng understood that Sony really wanted to sell. After looking at the data given by the team, it was 13 billion US dollars.
Wang Heng subconsciously rounded up an integer, and tentatively said, "10 billion US dollars."

When the quotation was said, several Sony executives present felt an impulse of fury when they heard it.

Hod frowned and said, "Is this the sincerity of your company? If so, I don't think there is any need to continue the discussion. I would rather let Cell be listed as a non-performing asset on Sony's asset list."

What international joke?Sony invested 40 billion US dollars in research and development, and Wang Heng only paid 10 billion US dollars?
Let Cell lose as much as 30 billion US dollars?Even if the product fails, the technical accumulation will not disappear, so as long as it is not sold, Sony has always owned the asset of Cell, and it has always been worth 40 billion US dollars.
Wang Heng didn't care about Sony's high-level change of face, isn't it normal to do business and bargain?

Wang Heng said directly, "I am the buyer and naturally want to spend less money, but you are the seller and you want to make more money, isn't that reasonable?
Now that I have made an offer, if you are not satisfied, you can also tell us your offer, let’s talk slowly, and negotiate a price that both parties are satisfied with. Isn’t that how business is done? "

Negotiation is the art of compromise. Wang Heng has not mastered this art. In the past, he always hired negotiators for acquisitions. This is his first time negotiating in person.

After listening to Wang Heng's words, Huode didn't say anything, and directly quoted an opposite price, "30 billion US dollars!"

"30 billion? This is killing pigs. It's too expensive at 12 billion."

"28 billion is the least." Huo De was distracted by Wang Heng, and he bargained along.

……

The first interview between the two parties did not reach any substantive written agreement or happy consensus. Sony was already struggling.
Wang Heng really wanted to buy it, but he didn't want to spend more money. After all, he had to invest money in research and development after buying it.
Moreover, he still has an island to spend money on building. It seems that more than 70 billion US dollars is quite a lot, and it seems that it is not enough to spend.

And he didn't want the Nehong people to take advantage of them, that is, Yuna Island. Although he thought about luring those 1000 people away with 1600 million yuan per person, he thought it was too cheap for them, so he didn't make a decision.

This time he came here to see if he could buy more land in Nihong Guojing County and exchange it with the residents of Yuna Island.
888 million square meters of Yuna Island land, even if it is 1:5 for the garbage land in Jing County, it doesn't matter.

After all, it is only 78 yuan per square meter, even if it is 4500 million square meters, it is only 35 billion yuan.
Compared with giving 1000 million to one person, it would cost 160 billion, saving 01:30 points.

With 5 times more land, plus the 1-200 that they had allocated before, Wang Heng believes that the residents of Yuna Island should move.
