Reborn in Hong Kong as a Tycoon

Chapter 479 Investment and Development of the Semiconductor Industry

Both Wang Yiping and Li Fuquan could understand, and Lin Baicheng was immediately relieved.

Lin Baicheng asked the two of them, "Has CITIC started operation now?"

"It's already being prepared."

Wang Yiping said: "We are now inviting Mr. Lin to become a director of CITIC, which is part of the preliminary preparations. When the company will start to work, it depends on the chairman of the company, Comrade Rong."

Lin Baicheng nodded when he heard the words: "Well, this is a rare opportunity. Now I will talk about my own views on the economy, and I would like to ask the two of you to help pass it on."

"Please tell me, Mr. Lin."

Wang Yiping and Li Fuquan were a little surprised when they heard the words, which they did not expect, but since Lin Baicheng wanted to say it, they would definitely listen carefully and convey it on his behalf.As for the judgment of CITIC, it has nothing to do with them, after all, they and CITIC have different departments.

"Let me just talk about my views on financial investment in the current time period."

Lin Baicheng said: "Because of the oil crisis a few years ago, oil prices rose, and the economies of Western countries were severely affected, resulting in an economic crisis. Although the economic crisis has passed, I think the economies of Western countries will still be affected. And gold is a safe-haven precious metal, so there is still room for gold prices to rise, and investing in gold during the current period will make a lot of money.”

"Then there is Xiangjiang. The country decides to reform and open up. I personally believe in domestic determination and believe that China can take back Xiangjiang from the UK. Xiangjiang is a domestic and international port and has an important position. As long as the domestic reform and opening up If the determination remains the same, then Xiangjiang will definitely benefit, and the overall economy of Xiangjiang will definitely flourish.”

"Among many industries, the real estate industry will have better development prospects. After all, the land area of ​​Xiangjiang is limited. With the rapid development of the economy and the increase of per capita income, the price of land and housing prices will definitely rise accordingly, so investing in the real estate industry will definitely benefit."

Lin Baicheng's words were full of nonsense, without any perfunctory. As for whether the management of CITIC Corporation would seriously consider his judgment, that was out of Lin Baicheng's consideration.Anyway, he has already said what he should say, if the other party can't seize the opportunity, then it has nothing to do with him.

"Mr. Lin, don't worry, we will convey your words on your behalf."

Wang Yiping nodded. In terms of economics, he is not an expert, so he will not judge Lin Baicheng's words, as long as he conveys it on his behalf, and there will naturally be professionals to judge.

Li Fuquan then said: "There is no doubt about the domestic determination to reform and open up to develop the economy, so Xiangjiang's economy will develop as fast as you said, Mr. Lin. If everyone can see it clearly like you, Mr. Lin, that would be great." .”

"No matter what, Xiangjiang will always be a part of the motherland. I believe more people will choose to support the return."

Lin Baicheng said something aloud, but he knew very well in his heart that more people in Xiangjiang want to maintain the status quo. Who makes the domestic economy bad? Compared with the two, the people of Xiangjiang naturally feel that their lives are better. I look down on the mainland and don't want to live in poverty.

However, the return of Xiangjiang does not depend on the will of the people of Xiangjiang. The inland side has a bigger fist, and even the United Kingdom has to make concessions, let alone a small place like Xiangjiang.

"Xiangjiang is able to return, thanks to the support of patriots like you, Mr. Lin."

Wang Yiping and Li Fuquan also spoke nicely, and everyone carried the bridal sedan chair.

Lin Baicheng smiled: "You're welcome, this is what I should do."

After that, the three chatted about something else.

After chatting for a while, Wang Yiping and Li Fuquan prepared to say goodbye and leave.

When they were about to leave, Lin Baicheng hinted to them that the share price of Hutchison Whampoa would not fall too much, and that the stock price would inevitably rise sharply this year.I didn’t say anything more detailed, not only because there is an agreement with HSBC, but also because this is a company he controls, so it would be bad if it was too detailed to make Wang and Li think that he was recommending his own company.

Lin Baicheng didn't have much thought about becoming a director of CITIC, and in his opinion, this matter would not have much impact on him.At his age, even if he has extraordinary achievements, it is not as simple as it sounds on the surface to convince the management of CITIC Company to trust his judgment.

Lin Baicheng can imagine that the other directors of CITIC Corporation should be no less than 50 years old. These seniors will not feel that their abilities are inferior to Lin Baicheng. It is not easy for them to think that Lin Baicheng is better than them in financial investment.

Therefore, Lin Baicheng didn't have much thought about becoming a director of CITIC Corporation, and he mentioned it whenever he had the opportunity, regardless of whether CITIC Corporation could seize the opportunity.

Lin Baicheng decided that it would be better to implement it as soon as possible regarding the matter of investing in the Shekou Industrial Zone.

That afternoon, Lin Baicheng went to HK Electric Group.The reason why I came here is mainly because Lin Baicheng has 100% control of several other companies. Although the control of Hong Kong Electric Group is in the hands of Lin Baicheng, the matter of letting Hong Kong Electric Group invest in the Shekou Industrial Zone still needs to be discussed with the management. .

Hong Kong Electric Group also has Lin Baicheng's office here. He first called Levi's, the company's executive, over.

Lin Baicheng didn't go around in circles with Levi's, and directly talked about the investment.

"Chairman, wouldn't it be uneconomical to invest there?"

Levi's frowned slightly after hearing this: "The company has a lot to rely on the Hong Kong government. If the Hong Kong government does not like it when investing in the north, it will do more harm than good. After all, investing there will not see profits in the short term. What's more, I am worried that after this news is announced, it will have a certain impact on the stock price, and shareholders will definitely be afraid that the company's investment there will be confiscated by the officials there."

"It's not unreasonable what you said, so let's release the news first to test it out."

Lin Baicheng thought for a while and said, he doesn't necessarily want Hong Kong Electric Group to invest in Shekou. Although he, Wang Yiping and Li Fuquan said that Hong Kong Electric Group will invest there, he can change to another company. It is enough to see the funds invested, and it is the same for which company invests.

The reason why he chose to release the news was because Levi's words reminded him that if the release of the news would cause the company's stock price to drop, then he just bought some at the bottom.

Lin Baicheng now only holds 38.93% of the shares of Hong Kong Electric Group. Now he has a lot of funds in his hand, and he doesn't mind buying some more stocks to increase his holdings.Although nearly 40% of the shares are already safe, the current stock price is not high, and there is no harm in increasing the holdings.

Levi's asked: "Chairman, are you going to test out the news in the form of an announcement, or release the news to the reporter?"

Lin Baicheng thought for a while and said: "A board meeting will be held tomorrow, and then the matter will be discussed at the board meeting, but the directors will not be voted on first. After the outside world knows the news, the stockholders' reaction will be reflected in the stock price."

"I know what to do."

Levi nodded in understanding.

Since it was decided to convene a board meeting tomorrow to test the impact of the investment in Shekou on HK Electric Group, there is no need for Lin Baicheng to talk to other management about it now.

However, it was rare to come to Hong Kong Electric Group. Lin Baicheng still called several top managements to his office and asked them to report to him in more detail. He could also have a clearer understanding of Hong Kong Electric Group.

It was already four o'clock in the afternoon when Lin Baicheng left Hong Kong Electric Group. After thinking about it, he still went to Xinghe Semiconductor Company. He planned to go again tomorrow.

Although Galaxy Semiconductor is the parent company of Galaxy Semiconductor, its current scale is not as large as Galaxy Semiconductor, and the production line of the factory is also received from Galaxy Semiconductor.There is a large factory area, but the problem is that there are no production lines and workers, and most of them are empty.

This is not because Lin Baicheng has no funds to purchase production lines, but because the company's current production lines are already large enough and cannot be expanded blindly. Only after the sales of Xingyue consoles, arcade machines, TVs and other products increase, can the production line expand.

The manager of Galaxy Semiconductor is Noda Hao. When Lin Baicheng came here, he was the first person to look for.

"Chairman!"

Hiroshi Noda knew he was Japanese just by his name. He had worked in the semiconductor industry for more than [-] years and was recruited by Lin Baicheng with a high salary.He is not a talent in R&D, but in management. At the same time, he has strong contacts in the semiconductor industry in Japan and knows many technical masters.

"Noda, sit down."

Lin Baicheng greeted Noda Hao to sit down.

After Noda Hao sat down, Lin Baicheng said: "Noda, I came here this time to tell you that in addition to the 5 million Hong Kong dollar loan just received, Galaxy Semiconductor will get more funds in the future, at least not less than 10 billion Hong Kong dollars. With a total injection of 15 billion Hong Kong dollars, you need to recruit more talents for the company and start technology research and development."

"Chairman, don't worry, I'm preparing to report to you tomorrow. I'm planning to go back to Japan on the weekend, chat with some old friends, and recruit them to the company."

Hiroshi Noda paused, and asked: "Chairman, apart from the company's existing chips and memory categories, there are other semiconductors. I don't know which field the company should conduct research and development first? With the goal, I would also like to invite technical talents from related industries.”

Lin Baicheng said in a deep voice, "Tell me what you think."

"The company is currently at the world's advanced level in the field of memory, so as long as it maintains and catches up, it doesn't need to invest too much."

"The field of semiconductors includes many subdivisions. Since the company has acquired an integrated circuit manufacturing chain, it should continue to expand its advantages in this area, and continue to catch up with the world's advanced level in design, manufacturing, and packaging and testing. Make a certain investment in the field of semiconductor materials and lithography machines.”

Hiroshi Noda talked about his opinion. In his opinion, only after reaching the world advanced level in one subdivision field can it expand to other fields.

"It seems that we are thinking of getting together."

Lin Baicheng couldn't help laughing when he heard the words. Although he has great ambitions and wants to make a difference in the entire semiconductor field, he doesn't have that much money now, so he has to do the same thing, waiting for the world's advanced in a certain semiconductor subdivision field. After technology, invest in other segments and try not to let your company be manipulated.

"Noda, in addition to what you just said, you should look for R&D talents in the field of displays, and the company will also carry out R&D of displays. At the beginning, there is no requirement for immediate results, and the investment will not be too large, so you can invite people from the industry. Dana is the best, and if you can’t invite someone, the lesser ones will be able to accept it.”

"What's more, don't forget about recruiting talents from the United States and South Korea, and try to get as many talents as possible to work in Xiangjiang. At present, apart from Xiangjiang, the company only has branches and laboratories in the United States. Technical talents can only choose to work in these two places.”

"Okay Chairman, I see."

Hiroshi Noda responded first, and then said: "Chairman, if possible, I hope the company can establish a branch in Japan. Some high-tech industry giants have always been a company that is not short of invitations. Although you opened The treatment is higher, but some people may reject us because they don’t want to leave the country, after all, their income is not low, and they are not very short of money.”

"I understand what you mean. If this happens, then set up a branch in Japan."

After pondering for a while, Lin Baicheng still made a decision, even though Galaxy Semiconductor will spend more in this way.But there is no way, if you want to recruit talents, you must pay for it.

"Yes, Chairman!"

Noda Hiroshi can be said to be very happy now, because the company has a lot of funds, which can allow him to make great achievements.He joined Xinghe Semiconductor Company not only because of the high salary, but also because Lin Baicheng promised that he would invest huge sums of money in the semiconductor field, and the company would make great achievements. Now it seems that Lin Baicheng did not fool him, and the company will have more than 3 million US dollars of funds to use .

For the funds used by the company, Noda Hao didn't care whether it was a loan or Lin Baicheng's own money, he only cared about how much funds the company could use.

In the field of semiconductors, money does not necessarily make a difference, but it is absolutely impossible to make a difference without money, so money is very important.

Today's Galaxy Semiconductor Company actually has nothing to look at, so instead of going to the factory, Lin Baicheng discussed the company's future development plan with Noda Hiroshi.

Lin Baicheng has not thought about paying back the money he has invested in semiconductor companies right now, and he is already mentally prepared not to pay back the money for at least ten years.Even if the company's technology reaches the forefront of the world in a certain field and starts to make money, Lin Baicheng will continue to invest the profits in semiconductor development and will not take away a penny.

Next year, Lin Baicheng will make a huge profit on gold futures, and Lin Baicheng is ready to invest part of it in the semiconductor company. He must raise this company and prepare for the future.

Not to mention the era of smartphones in the distant past, semiconductor companies can be used in the coming Internet era, and computers contain too much semiconductor technology.
