We're building a super chaebol in Hong Kong

Those reporters who had just left received new work assignments from their headquarters: to go to an IBM office building near Times Square.

Helplessly, the reporters had no choice but to rush back to Su Cheng and the others.

They had already sent the press release for the morning conference back to their companies.

Originally, they thought they could relax comfortably during this business trip.

Unexpectedly, there was still work to do?

Soon, dozens of media outlets rushed from around New York to the IBM office building.

When all the reporters discovered that in front of them were not only the president of IBM, but also the technical director of Kodak, the president of Storage Technology Corporation, the vice president of Texas Instruments, and Yang Chaoye and others who had just finished the press conference, they realized that this matter seemed quite important.

At exactly three o'clock in the afternoon, a press conference had been temporarily set up in the conference room.

More than a dozen big shots were sitting on the stage, and in the middle was Yang Chaoye from the Su Corporation.

"We have called you here today because there is a statement to be made jointly by 11 companies, including Oracle Computer Corporation, IBM Corporation, Kodak Corporation, Texas Instruments Corporation, Intel Corporation, Storage Technology Corporation, and Hewlett-Packard Corporation." After seeing that all the reporters were ready, Yang Chaoye said.

Those with video cameras recorded everything, those without video cameras used portable recording devices to record the speech, and more reporters took up their pens and quickly recorded the speech using the most primitive method.

"I represent Oracle Computer Corporation, and together with the other 11 companies, I sign a commitment statement promising that the hardware technology involved in the Oracle computers currently released by our Oracle Computer Corporation, such as storage technology, processor technology, and graphics card technology, will be sold to these 11 companies at a suitable price in 180 days from today, to jointly raise the level of global technology. It is our corporate responsibility, and technology is a symbol of human civilization and a ladder for human progress," Yang Chaoye continued.

The detailed content, of course, was given to the reporters in written form in the joint statement, so Yang Chaoye did not read it in detail.

After Yang Chaoye finished speaking, the president of IBM took the lead in applauding, followed by everyone else.

In the conference room with less than a hundred people, the applause was thunderous and lasted for a long time.

Soon, Yang Chaoye handed a joint statement to the reporters, allowing them to take pictures of it.

It could be seen that on the second page of this hundreds-of-words joint statement, there were signatures of more than a dozen big shots in the technology industry, and each signature was stamped with their respective seals.

These things, like Zhang Zhongmou, the technical director of Kodak, and others, had naturally called their headquarters in advance to report. There was no need for the headquarters to slowly hold meetings for such matters; what was needed was speed.

What if there was no seal from the headquarters? Use the seal from the branch company.

Although the laws in the beautiful country did not mandatorily require contracts to be sealed, the rigorous ones naturally felt that it was better to have an official seal, as it also represented their company's position.

Soon, the joint statement was photographed by all the media.

Only now did the big shots above breathe a sigh of relief.

If there were no accidents, this news should be broadcast on television tonight.

The effect would be even greater when more newspaper media outlets released the statement the next morning.

Su Cheng stood on one side at the bottom of the conference room, watching the big shots with smiles on their faces, and he also smiled.

Isn't this also advertising for Oracle Computer?

In half a year, the Oracle brand, and even the experience stores, could become well-known.

This is much better than spending money on advertising.

Not only does it save a lot of advertising expenses, but it also gains a good reputation. Why not do it?

When the media rushed back, Su Cheng and Yang Chaoye also left the IBM office building together.

"Mr. Zhang Zhongmou won't be returning to Texas so quickly tonight, will he?" Su Cheng asked as he walked.

"No, his flight is tomorrow afternoon," Yang Chaoye shook his head and said.

"That's good. Tonight, please help me ask him out. I have something to discuss with him," Su Cheng said with a smile.

Everyone is Chinese, so chatting over tea is the most suitable.

"Okay, by the way, boss, I have something else to tell you. Intel's president, Gordon Moore, hopes to find some time to talk in detail about the technology-for-equity matter," Yang Chaoye said with a smile.

"Oh? They're getting anxious so soon?" Su Cheng was a little surprised.

"After all, Intel is only a 10-year-old company, unlike IBM, Texas Instruments, and other companies with decades of history. It lacks foundation. Although it has released several processors that have been recognized by everyone, the current computer market is still small, so large companies basically have their own processors, and only some small companies use their processors, so the company's benefits are not very good. Now that our computer has been released, it is equivalent to cutting off their retreat. If they take any further action, it will definitely be a disastrous consequence for them," Yang Chaoye explained.

Currently, Intel is also a leader in the fields of processor and storage technology before Oracle Computer announced its products.

But after Oracle Computer's processors and storage devices came out, their company's products were relatively outdated garbage.

If Intel were to research Oracle Computer's processor technology on its own, it would take at least seven or eight years. Could they wait? Of course not.

Therefore, they had no choice but to come to our door.

After all, Intel's funds are not sufficient in the first place. If they don't have products to sell, they simply can't support their research and development.

"Tell me, how much Intel equity should we ask for in exchange for technology?" Su Cheng said with a smile.

"Boss, do you want to control Intel?" Yang Chaoye asked in return.

"No, I have absolutely no interest in holding Intel," Su Cheng said with a smile.

He can just cultivate his own semiconductor company in Xiangjiang. As for Intel, Su Cheng can just hold some shares and not interfere in their affairs. Let Gordon Moore and his team develop Intel.

Moreover, he doesn't want the news that he holds Intel shares to be known by others.

An Intel that is not interfered with is a good Intel.

"Then I think we can sign a contract with them, give them the technology first, and the money can be paid in installments," Yang Chaoye said with a smile.
