Although he has made up his mind to buy Infineon, although Qimonda's DRAM technology is of great use to the Fairy Company, Xiao Qi is very upset with the Germans' combination.

But this is no way. Companies in European countries like Germany are really too difficult to acquire. It's no wonder that companies in these countries can't develop, and the development model of the United States is completely two extremes!

Therefore, the United States can successively produce super large groups with a market value of tens of billions and hundreds of billions of dollars, but there is no such large group on the European continent!

No wonder the impact of the European debt crisis can be so far-reaching. This kind of stubborn behavior, this kind of behavior that does not fit into the world at all, can develop and become prosperous!

Slightly disregarding the young man's complaints, when Xiao Qi decided on the plan, Goldman Sachs smiled and went to Germany again with the plan.

What they need to do is to coordinate Infineon’s delisting of the German stock market, complete the overall privatization process, and supervise the transfer of intellectual property rights that may occur to the Germans during the transaction process, and also prevent the loss of assets. The situation develops-don't think that the Germans are more honest, their workers are about the same, and anyone who is a company boss and senior person can't be honest!

As long as this long and cumbersome work is completed, Goldman Sachs will receive at least $300 million in commissions. This huge commissioned profit can almost make Goldman Sachs European companies laugh out loud in their dreams.

Xiao Qi really had a feeling of schadenfreude for their elation.

Because this world is only known to Xiao Qi. Goldman Sachs’ good days are now these few months, with the outbreak of the financial crisis. With the deepening of the debt crisis in Europe, Goldman Sachs, the super giant behind the scenes, will become the target of everyone's slaps, fines and punishments will directly make them cry out of their dreams.

What makes Xiao Qi a little regretful is that even such a severe punishment did not cost Goldman Sachs much. They are still the world's number one investment bank. The same can be done in Wall Street, Financial Street and other places, and entrap countless people.

The strength of Goldman Sachs and the strength of the United States are closely related. As long as the United States remains the world’s hegemon, then Goldman Sachs will continue to make waves. After all, many people know that Goldman Sachs and even Wall Street are actually beasts raised by the US government. Financial means are used to combat American competitors. In order to ensure the strength of the United States.

Xiao Qi thinks that he is not a smart person, at least much worse than the elites of Wall Street such as Goldman Sachs and Merrill Lynch. Therefore, the development direction he chose from the beginning was not virtual financial trade, but real electronics. Technology Products.

Otherwise, Xiao Qi could certainly win for a period of time with the advantage of reincarnation and rebirth. But after 2013, Xiao Qi, who has no advantages in reincarnation and rebirth, can cope with Wall Street, which has brought together financial geniuses from all over the world?

Conquering Wall Street is just a joke.

Back to the front, the agreement reached by Xiao Qi and Infineon is worth more than 9.6 billion U.S. dollars. But it is not a one-off payment, but a three-part payment spanning nine months.

Unless you are using cash plus stocks. Otherwise, such acquisitions that span several months, or even one or two years, have occurred particularly frequently in Europe and the United States. After all, apart from Apple and such companies, not many companies have billions or tens of billions of dollars in spare money in their hands. .

Xiao Qi has money. Although the cash flow in his hands has been reduced recently due to the acquisition of Nortel Networks, the DreamStars issued at the end of December has sold 2.2 million units, which makes him increase his cash flow. There are more than 40 billion U.S. dollars in cash flow available for use on his account.

During the 9-month payment process, Xiao Qi agreed to pay in U.S. dollars, at least 20% less than it is now. After the collapse of Lehman Brothers, the Federal Reserve was terrified. The U.S. dollar depreciated wildly at that time, but it would cause countless People scold the United States for being "heartbroken"!

The young boy’s deposit at Citibank was settled in RMB for him, which means that from the moment Xiao Qi deposits it, Citibank converts him into RMB, but Xiao Qi can withdraw U.S. dollars at any time according to the market exchange rate of the day. Only Xiao Qi could enjoy this convenient and quick way.

Xiao Qi’s payment is basically deposited into China Merchants Bank as soon as it arrives. China Merchants Bank also has the task of foreign exchange reserves. They converted Xiao Qi into Renminbi immediately and placed it in his China Merchants Bank account. There is no risk of devaluation.

On the contrary, the depreciation of the US dollar and the appreciation of the renminbi in the future, if the two are added together, I am afraid that it may save 30% of money!

The Germans originally wanted to make a fortune, but just because of a time difference, they lost so much, which is equivalent to only earning more than 6 billion U.S. dollars. This kind of huge contrast will make them want to cry when they want to come. Tears!

That is to say, Xiao Qi still has a certain amount of money that is not visible now, that is the money he made in the subprime mortgage crisis, and now it has returned to his private bank account, which has exceeded 6.2 billion U.S. dollars, except for Tong Wencong and Xiao Qi. Besides knowing, Xiao Qi didn't even tell his wives.

Not to mention Tong Wencong. Although he has now become a well-known fund manager on Wall Street, if people know that the private commission he manages has earned 6.2 billion and his income has exceeded 200 million US dollars, I am afraid not only Only when the supervisory department came to him, the police and judges would also invite him to drink coffee.

This kind of thing, if there is no extremely tyrannical background, it is better to make a fortune in silence!

Don’t look at Xiao Qi’s total in the subprime mortgage crisis and the European debt crisis. He can make a huge amount of about 20 billion U.S. dollars, but if the time span exceeds 3 years, it is not easy to launder this money. If you don't want the reputation to be completely stinky, you must be cautious if you want to use it.

The acquisition of Infineon is just a move by Xiao Qi on his own chips and smart sensors, and there will be a series of steps next.

The first one. What Xiao Qi wants to acquire is Spreadtrum Communications, a company founded by overseas students from Silicon Valley in China. The company is headquartered in the East and listed on the Nasdaq in the United States, but its development is not so smooth, and the market value is only around US$1.8 billion.

The reason is still that the accumulation of technology and invention are less.

After Xiao Qi bought Spreadtrum Communications, the first thing was to send all their elites to Infineon to learn German technology.

The bosses of Huaguo Company are not very good in IQ and EQ, but there are still many smart people in Huaguo, among the senior IQ talents in the United States. A large part of them are Chinese.

Therefore, although the people of Spreadtrum Communications can't work in companies, they can still be assured of technology. Especially the learning ability of Chinese people should not be underestimated.

As long as the people of Spreadtrum Communications have learned Infineon’s technology, Xiao Qi can open another laboratory in China to make a fuss about smart car systems, CPU chips and mobile phone baseband chips. He will not dare to talk about mobile phones then. The chip does a better job than Qualcomm. But from MediaTek's mobile phone to grab the low-end chip processor market, it is not small.

In terms of smart car systems, Xiao Qi can also do some simple fittings to compact cars or miniature cars. If the price can be lowered a bit, I believe no one would be willing to give more insurance to their safety. No one is unwilling to add some technological color to their driving.

Talking about acquisitions with people, Xiao Qi believes that professional people can do the best.

This time he chose Citibank.

Citibank has always been Xiao Qi's iron rod, and has a lot of business in all parts of China. This kind of persuasive thing is most suitable for them to do.

Spreadtrum's previous life can be acquired by Tsinghua Unisplendour. It proves that they still want to hold their thighs, and they have such a powerful backer as Fairy Company. Their performance is also better, and naturally there is no reason to refuse.

Then the second step, Infineon's smart sensor is very powerful, Xiao Qi of course will not let it go.

He has notified the experts from the Fairy Lab and Huaguo Optoelectronics Institute to prepare. Once the contract is signed, the huge laboratory engineers with at least 500 people will go to Germany to learn from the German experts. And do experiments on your own, for a period of at least one year, and then rotate after one year.

As the executives of Fairy Company said, technology is always better in your own hands.

An open country like the United States is not the same. The technology of Mingxiang Holdings' North American Laboratory is common to that of the Fairy Laboratory. As long as you are not involved in sensitive fields such as the military, Americans are still tolerant in these areas.

Europe is notoriously blocked.

Take a simple example. Everyone knows Volvo acquired by Geely, right?

Volvo is a good car, and its safety performance and environmental protection factor are well-known brands all over the world.

When they couldn't do it because of costs such as labor and technology, Geely bought Volvo directly.

At first glance, this is a good thing!

We bought Volvo and used Volvo's advanced technology, so we can't beat up those joint venture cars of the same level?

If nothing else, just the cost of a joint venture car can't be compared!

but!

Things are not as simple as everyone thinks!

Volvo is sold to Geely. UU read www.uukanshu.com, but when they sell it, they have conditions, that is, the R&D and production departments in Sweden must remain the same. No layoffs or interference in internal business activities are allowed. allow…

Well, where is this to buy a company? It is purely to buy an ancestor to go home for offering!

Such harsh conditions are also the reason why Geely has only made a slight localization of cars after acquiring Volvo for a few years!

Take a look!

This is the disadvantage of technology control in the hands of others!

With this lesson learned, Xiao Qi certainly won't make the same mistakes again! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point () to vote recommended votes, monthly tickets, your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile users please go to read.)

PS: When I looked at the information, I felt a little aggrieved. We bought the company outside, basically the rhythm of being pitted, and Volvo is a typical one. If you want to rise again, there is a long way to go!
