Rebirth of the Wild Age

SMIC has changed its name to Ark Technology and is registered in the Cayman Islands.

Li Delei holds 14.9% of the shares, Li Dejing holds 43.79, Song Weiyang holds 20.71, Zhongwei Industrial holds 15.6%, and China Soft Park Development Company holds 5%.

Li Dejing, the largest shareholder, is Li Delei's own brother. Most of the shares he holds are obtained by squeezing out entrepreneurial partners. Now Li Delei is the fourth largest shareholder and president, his younger brother Li Dejing is the largest shareholder and vice president, his wife's uncle Wang Xiaosu serves as the company's chief financial officer, and Ark Technology has been turned into a family business.

Song Weiyang went north to the capital again, instead of running directly to take the offer, he summoned Li Xiaofeng, director of Ark Technology.

Li Xiaofeng used to be an executive of China Technology, and was sent by Song Weiyang to Ark Technology as the shareholder representative. When he first passed, he was extremely excited, thinking that he was about to reach the pinnacle of his life, but now he felt like a match. His former colleagues in China Science and Technology have become prestigious one by one, but they are stationed at Ark Technology half-dead.

"Boss!" Li Xiaofeng greeted respectfully. The true thought in his heart was actually a request to return to China Technology.

"Sit down," Song Weiyang asked straightforwardly without talking nonsense, "Some time ago, the media rumored that Ark Technology misappropriated the 863 project funds. Is this really the case?"

Li Xiaofeng shook his head and said: "No. With his ten guts, Li Delei did not dare to embezzle the funds of the 863 project."

Song Weiyang asked: "Then Ark Technology was about to close down last year, but now it has suddenly started construction work. Where did the money for building the building come from?"

Li Xiaofeng said: "The land was obtained three years ago. The star company paid half price and only paid 1 million yuan in the first payment. At that time, the company was busy developing chips and had no money to break ground to build a building, so the land remained unused until it was there. At the end of last year, Zhongguancun Software Park Development Company couldn’t sit still, and injected 50 million yuan to obtain 5% of Ark’s shares. The incidental requirement is that the money can only be used to build buildings, of which 20 million will be returned to the software park to pay for the land purchase. ."

"30 million is enough to build a building?" Song Weiyang said.

Li Xiaofeng said: "The Ark has borrowed another 30 million yuan on the mortgaged land, a total of 60 million building funds. Not high, only a few floors, 60 million yuan is enough."

Song Weiyang said: "In other words, there is no problem with Ark Technology's construction funds?"

"Surely there is no problem, otherwise the Ministry of Science and Technology can just sit back and watch?" Li Xiaofeng said.

Song Weiyang asked: "How do you evaluate Li Delei?"

Li Xiaofeng said: "This person is calculating and keen on fighting for power. But he has short-sightedness and is easily influenced by emotions. He can speak out any unobtrusive things when he is angry. He even publicly commented that the'Ark 3'chip is shit, making trouble. Everyone in Zhongguancun knows. How can the boss scold his own products like this? What does this make the R&D staff think? Just two months ago, the leader of the Ark 3 project team Li Jie resigned with the core team. left."

In another time and space, the head of the development of the Ark chip is Liu Qiang. However, Liu Qiang has long been poached by China Technology and is now the chief engineer of China's chip department. Through Academician Ni, Ark Technology invited Li Jie from the Chinese Academy of Sciences to be responsible for the development of Ark chips (Li Jie and Liu Qiang are classmates).

"Is the entire chip development team finished?" Song Weiyang asked.

Li Xiaofeng said: "All the core members are gone, but there are still some engineers who specialize in outsourcing projects."

"Outsourcing?" Song Weiyang said.

"Well," Li Xiaofeng nodded, "At the end of last year, the major agencies refused to purchase NC machines, and Ark Technology lost more than 95% of its orders. The company was on the verge of bankruptcy, and Li Delei started outsourcing. The main project was to make PHS chips. Now the PHS on the Chinese market, except for China's PHS, which uses self-developed chips, most of the PHSs of other brands are using chips designed by Ark Technology."

Song Weiyang asked: "How is the business situation?"

Li Xiaofeng smiled bitterly and said: "Of course it is to die or not. PHS is not easy to sell now, let alone doing outsourcing projects for PHS chips."

The market situation of PHS is indeed bad now, because low-end mobile phones are too cheap, and PHS has lost its price advantage. Then you can only look for advantages in phone bills. Buying PHS to send phone bills is almost equal to zero yuan purchase, and various packages are free to make calls-Telecom (Netcom) companies will subsidize PHS manufacturers, or simply telecom (Netcom) ) Customized machine.

China Science and Technology has decided to package and sell the PHS business, and several domestic companies are willing to take over, and negotiations are currently ongoing.

Song Weiyang said: "I heard that all the clients brought by Academician Ni were scolded by Li Delei. Why did he do this? Is it true that Li Delei only accepts government orders and despise the small orders of private enterprises? "

"I didn't want to understand this matter at the time. I thought it was Li Delei's swelling of honors," Li Xiaofeng said. "Looking back now, it was all Li Delei's performance of fighting for power."

"Speak carefully." Song Weiyang said.

Li Xiaofeng said: "The predecessor of Ark Technology was founded by Li Delei in cooperation with Harbin Institute of Technology alumni. He used Academician Ni to open up government relations, and at a critical moment, let his brothers drive away former shareholders, and the combined equity of the two brothers was realized. Absolutely holding. But he faced two other potential opponents, one is Academician Ni who helps the company build relationships, and the other is Li Jie who is responsible for chip research and development. In order to differentiate his opponents, Li Delei and Academician Ni said that Li Jie is his. Son-in-law. When Li Delei and Academician Ni had an affair, Academician Ni also alienated Li Jie. I only learned about this when I was chatting with Academician Ni a few days ago."

"What about scolding customers away?" Song Weiyang asked.

Li Xiaofeng said: "When Ark Technology was just founded, it relied on Academician Ni's rush to appeal. He didn't take a penny or ask for a share. But Li Delei treats the gentleman's belly with a villain, and he is afraid that Academician Ni will one day get involved. The company, so after the company is on the right track, he deliberately sings against Academician Ni. However, whenever Academician Ni brings in customers, he will give others a face, anger all the customers away, and prevent Academician Ni from coming to the stage. Academician Ni is What temper? I'm so angry that I no longer care about Ark Technology."

"Gong Dou is a good player." Song Weiyang smiled.

Li Xiaofeng said: "Since I left Academician Ni, orders from private enterprises will be accepted by Li Delei no matter how small he is. He is not a fool. However, Li Delei has long ruined his reputation. Even without the restrictions of the Wintel alliance, there are probably not many customers. Willing to cooperate. At that time, there was a company called Yuxing Technology, and Academician Ni finally got the order. Yuxing Technology invested millions of yuan, abandoned Intel and switched to the Ark chip camp. The deal was negotiated, and Li Delei suddenly refused to provide. Goods. Because Yuxing Technology believed in Academician Ni, he didn't sign the contract at all when discussing cooperation. Li Delei's breach of the contract caused them to lose their vitality and almost did not get over."

Li Delei has done this kind of thing several times, and he confuses all the clients introduced by Academician Ni.

To bypass the Wintel Alliance to make chips and systems, the most important thing is to establish an industry ecosystem. How can the industry ecology be built like Li Delei's foolishness? He pitted all the companies that supported him!

Song Weiyang asked: "How does Li Delei plan to develop?"

Li Xiaofeng said: "In fact, he has completely abandoned the research and development of the'Ark III' chip. After all, the core development team has run away. However, the Ministry of Science and Technology has just allocated more than 10 million project funds. This money cannot be used indiscriminately. Convene a few engineers to fool around, and you have to spend the money before you talk."

Song Weiyang said: "What is the company's future route?"

Li Xiaofeng said: “First, make quick money by doing outsourcing. Second, develop other commercial chips. Third, engage in real estate. To be honest, I agree with Li Delei’s idea. Continue to make NC chips is a dead end. The key now is , The cowhide of the NC chip has blown up. More than a dozen ministries and commissions sent representatives to congratulate, and directly pierced the cowhide and confiscated it."

Song Weiyang nodded and said: "It's really impossible to end, so someone through Academician Ni~www.readwn.com~ wants me to help clean up the mess."

Li Xiaofeng hurriedly discouraged: “It’s useless for anyone to come. The 863 project is not that easy to do. Take the'Ark III' project as an example. The funding is 15.38 million yuan, and the salary of scientific researchers must not exceed 15%. On average, participation More than 60 engineers in chip research and development, with a monthly salary of only more than 2,000 yuan. How is this possible? The external rumors that Ark Technology misappropriated scientific research funds are pure nonsense. The funding for Ark 1 and 2 is even less. Relying on the company to post money in, there is no money to move it."

"The Ark III project can be moved, the development team is gone, and the remaining money is spent casually." Song Weiyang laughed.

Li Xiaofeng said: "I mean, with your current wealth, boss, there is no need to touch the 863 project, let alone the 863 funding. If you do it well, you will be infamy. It is clear that the funding is not enough. People are still wondering whether the funds have been misappropriated. Moreover, the Ministry of Science and Technology has determined that it will be an NC market. This has no prospects. The mess of Ark Technology is not easy to pick up. Boss, you should transfer me back to China Science and Technology, Ark There is really no hope here, and giving up as soon as possible is the most reasonable choice."

"There are some things that you still can't see through," Song Weiyang said. "I will spend money to take over the loss-making business, and I will surely get a tenfold return in the future. Wiping someone’s **** is also a technical job, and it must be polished beautifully. It’s bright, otherwise a lot of people will have to stick a shit."

Li Xiaofeng said: "I understand a little bit, what does the chairman want me to do?"

Song Weiyang said: "You help me contact the Zhongguancun Software Park Development Company. It would be a waste to build a few floors on such a good piece of land. After I take over Ark Technology, I will have to build at least thirty or fifty floors for office buildings. The money that I smashed out will be earned back with capital and profits."
