Rebirth of the Evil Life

Chapter 699: Anxious Reporter

The next day, on Monday, March 3, 2003, Lin Feng appeared at Alcatel headquarters on time.

"Mr. Lin, happy meeting, happy meeting!" Alcatel President Philip-Germain had a warm expression on his face.

"Mr. Germain, fortunately meeting, I feel very lucky to be able to cooperate with a century-old brand like Alcatel." Lin Feng said with a full face.

The successful acquisition of the mobile phone division of Alcatel this time is of great significance to Lin Feng and the Chinese mobile phone company. For a long time, the Chinese mobile phone market has been firmly occupied by foreign brands. Nokia, Ericsson, Motorola, etc., occupy almost absolute market share in the domestic mobile phone market. Until last year, in 2002, local mobile phone brands emerged strongly. Brands such as Bird, tcl, Konka attacked strongly, adopted low-price strategies, and focused on the low-end market, occupying 30% of the market. Let many foreign mobile phone manufacturers suffer for the first time.

However, this fruitful transcript cannot conceal the fact that domestic mobile phone brands lack their core technology. There are three core technologies of the mobile phone: First, the peripheral circuit design technology based on the mobile phone module. This is also the least technical aspect of the mobile phone's three-layer technology, but there are still very few domestic mobile phone manufacturers that can have complete peripheral circuit design capabilities.

Second, the chip-based module design is like a computer motherboard design. At this point, domestic mobile phone manufacturers are completely wiped out, and none of them have independent design and production qualifications.

Third, it is also the highest field of mobile phone core technology-chip design, just like computer cpu and chipset design. This point is currently owned by only a few companies in the world, and all of them use the "arm" company's authorized technology. In this field, "arm" is the absolute overlord.

These three technical fields also directly determine the fate of domestic mobile phones-losing money and earning money. Almost every mobile phone sold is profited by foreign mobile phone manufacturers with core technology. This has also caused a weird phenomenon in which domestic mobile phone manufacturers gradually occupy market share, but every family loses money in their operations.

But all this came to an end after Lin Feng acquired Alcatel. Although Alcatel does not possess the technology of chip design, it has certain advantages in the core technology of the first two layers, the peripheral circuit design technology of the mobile phone mill and the module design of the chip. The "five-dimensional joystick" of Alcatel mobile phone is its exclusive signature technology (although the short life span is its shortcoming).

But for Lin Feng, its third layer, the most technologically advanced chip design, is not a problem. After merging with "amd" and "ati", Lin Feng issued an order for "amd" to research mobile chips. So far, although the "amd" hardware development department has not developed enough to compare with the current mobile phone chips. The overlord "arm" (a well-known company in the microprocessor industry, occupies 85% of the market share of the mobile phone chip market, but mainly designs the cpu architecture by itself, and then provides it to the ic design company to launch different chips for different products. Siemens. , Nokia, Motorola have their authorized mobile communication chips, but it will happen sooner or later.

The future is the era of communication. Mobile communication will completely replace fixed phones. It is a general trend to have mobile communication chips designed by ourselves. Therefore, no matter how much money is invested in this area, Lin Feng will have no regrets.

Later, after asking each other and there was no objection, the acquisition and cooperation signing ceremony of "Phantom Technology" and "Alcatel" was officially held. Under the flashing spotlight, Lin Feng and Philip Germain formally reached a contract to acquire the mobile phone division of "Alcatel", and the two parties established "Shanghai Phantom Alcatel Co., Ltd.".

"Mr. Lin, I heard that you are going to buy a football club. I don't know which one?" After the signing was completed, Alcatel President Philip-Germain was in a good mood and asked jokingly.

Lin Feng smiled.

"Yes, Mr. Lin, which football club will you buy? Premier League, La Liga or Serie A?" Many reporters originally came to interview companies from China to acquire the mobile phone branch of the century-old French brand "Alcatel". However, after hearing what Philip-Germander said, I wanted to ask Lin Feng about the acquisition of the "Alcatel" mobile phone branch and about the future development blueprint of the newly established "Shanghai Phantom Alcatel", but I didn't ask about it at the moment. .

Europe is the paradise of football, where football is the first topic.

Lin Feng shrugged helplessly, and after repeated questions by many reporters, Lin Feng decided to reveal a little bit of information in advance after some thoughts.

"The English Premier League is the best league in the world, and its commercial operation is also the best in the world, so I am planning to acquire an English Premier League team." Lin Feng said with a smile.

auzw.com Now many reporters have heard about it, and they look excited. This time it can be regarded as a major news. Obviously, this little information is not enough.

"Then I don't know which team Mr. Lin is going to acquire in the Premier League? Manchester United? Arsenal? Liverpool? Or other teams?" Numerous reporters eager to dig for more information asked again and again.

However, at this critical moment, Lin Feng suddenly paused and said nothing. This made all the reporters anxious. Lin Feng didn't say anything, they were used to it anyway, and just guessed it by themselves. But Lin Feng said half and hid half, which is really cute.

Seeing the anxious look of many reporters in the audience, Lin Feng was happy.

"Everyone, I am here to sign a contract with Alcatel, not to buy a football club..." Lin Fengyu said with a pun.

Many reporters are human beings, so why don't they understand the hidden meaning in Lin Feng's words, this is Lin Fengxiang they want to promote. Ask them to publicize the news that Linfeng’s "Phantom Technology" has acquired the mobile phone division of "Alcatel" to create momentum for it.

Cunning Chinese! ——Many Western reporters whispered to themselves. But now they are eager to get news about which club Lin Feng has acquired, so they all slapped their chests, boasting that the news of this acquisition must be prominent in the financial page. Although this is not something that many on-site reporters can decide, as long as you can dig into the inside story of which football club Lin Feng acquired, plus the gold content of the Chinese company's acquisition of the French company branch, this guarantee is absolutely no problem.

As assured by many reporters, Lin Feng's smile was even worse. Even if there is no guarantee from these reporters, Lin Feng will reveal to him, in order to test the attitude of the club he is preparing to acquire. Of course, this cannot be said to be too white or too dead. It needs to be a little bit cryptic.

"I am going to acquire a London team. This team has had a glorious history, but it is not in good shape. Because both Mr. Mourinho and I believe in one thing-inheriting a dynasty is far from creating a dynasty. Excited.” Lin Feng finished speaking, no longer away from the many curious reporters who wanted to continue to figure out which club they were, and Philip Germain, the president of Alcatel, left.

Many reporters looked at Lin Feng's floating figure, with anxious expressions on their faces. This time Lin Feng only confided half of it, which really rushed them. But Lin Feng finally came up with a standard and a range. There are not many teams in London, just a few.

Many reporters rushed back to their newspapers, turned on their computers, and inquired about the actual situation of the London team.

Currently, there are 13 teams in London. When the news was found, many reporters looked shocked. I did not expect that there will be so many teams in London, but fortunately, Lam Fung acquired the Premier League, and there are currently 5 teams in the Premier League-Arsenal, Chelsea, Fulham, Tottenham Hotspur, West Han Mu Lian. Of course, the Crystal Palace football team, which is in the English Premier League, has a good record and is very likely to enter the Premier League next season.

If you count Crystal Palace, there are a total of six teams. Looking through the information of these six teams, many reporters hated Lin Feng. Lin Feng didn't say this clearly. As a result, London may have six Premier League teams, which is really hard to guess. Fortunately, Lin Feng also said that it had a glorious past, but the current situation is not good, which can be regarded as narrowing the scope again. This deletion leaves only four teams, Arsenal, Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham United.

Arsenal, of course needless to say. The current Premier League giants have won a total of 3 Premier League titles, 10 Premier League titles (no Premier League in the past), 10 FA Cup titles, 1 UEFA Cup title, and 1 European Cup Winners' Cup. If Mourinho wins the European championship, Arsenal is undoubtedly a team that fits its status as a European champion.

However, Arsenal just won the league title last year. Although the situation is not good this year, it does not seem to be in line with Lin Feng’s slogan of "has a glorious past, but the current situation is not good." Moreover, Arsenal’s head coach is French coach Wenger. He is also a coach who has been in charge of Arsenal for 7 years and is unlikely to give way to Mourinho. In this way, it seems that Arsenal is not Lin Feng's target.

Many reporters checked Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham United. Among these three teams, West Ham United’s glory in the past is a bit shameful, and I am afraid it should not be Lin Feng’s goal. According to the speculation of many reporters, Lin Feng's goal should be a team between Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur.

Chelsea has won 1 English Premier League championship, 3 FA Cup championships, 2 European Cup Winners' Cup championships, and 1 European Super Cup championship. They also have a good past. Tottenham Hotspur, 2 English Premier League champions, 8 FA Cup champions, 2 UEFA Cup champions, 1 European Cup Winners' Cup champion.

The qualifications of the two are similar. Moreover, the recent situation is not very good, very much in line with what Lin Feng said-starting a dynasty is always more exciting than inheriting a dynasty.

Who are Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur?

While the major European media madly published their own speculations, many domestic media were reporting on Lin Feng's acquisition of the "Alcatel" mobile phone division. Many domestic mobile phone manufacturers heard the news with chills-the wolf is coming!
