Chapter 936: Something Happened to the North American Company

If you are not in the mobile phone industry, you may not know the "good things" that Samsung has done at all.

But Yu Wenfei used to be the boss who led the company to the top three in global mobile phone sales, and he naturally knows everything about the industry.

If history follows the trajectory of his dream, then in 2010, HTC is still the same mobile phone brand that is in full swing.

Mobile phones sell well all over the world, and even became the world's largest mobile phone manufacturer for a time.

But it was also in this year that HTC's G7 high-end smartphone was just launched, and it was just showing signs of popularity.

Samsung directly came to the bottom of the kettle and cut off the AMOLED screen used on the G7......

Because Samsung was also promoting its own S2 high-end mobile phone at that time, and HTC's G7 happened to be a competitor!

HTC was dumbfounded at the time, and there were very few manufacturers that could produce AMOLED screens, and Samsung was the only one that could supply them in large quantities.

Temporarily, where can they go to find an LCD panel manufacturer to supply them?

As a result, the G7 was out of stock as soon as it went on sale......

Later, HTC found Sony's side to cooperate and replaced the SLCD screen for the mobile phone, and the display effect of this screen is obviously not as good as AMOLED.

As a result, word-of-mouth and sales plummeted.

That is, starting from the G7 generation, HTC quickly went into decline.

In fact, you can't blame all the reasons for HTC's decline on Samsung, after all, HTC's own "riotous operations" also have a lot, which can be regarded as killing itself.

But Samsung's screen supply outage incident has a huge impact on HTC.

............

It is worth mentioning that Samsung has not only used the same tricks against HTC, but also used the same tricks against other manufacturers.

But Samsung controls the entire mobile phone industry chain, and all the core components can be produced by themselves.

Especially when it comes to screen and storage, it's basically impossible to get around it.

This has also led to Samsung becoming more and more powerful.

But that was many years later, at least in 2005, Samsung was not so arrogant.

At the same time, it has a lot of competitors.

At least in Japan, whether it is making LCD screens or storage, there are still several companies that are competing fiercely with their Korean counterparts.

Yu Wenfei still has a choice.

Oh, and to mention, at this time, Sharp's screen is more famous and of better quality than Samsung's.

Therefore, Yuwenfei's first choice for his mobile phone is to find Sharp to provide the screen.

However, these things do not need to be talked about by Yu Wenfei himself.

Zhou Mengyi: They went back and did it.

Today, Yuwenfei wants to realize his ideal and make a cross-era mobile phone.

Actually, it wasn't that difficult.

Because he has too many resources at his disposal!

Whether it's human, financial, or relational.

As long as he says what he wants to achieve, prepares a sufficient budget, and naturally has his subordinates to help him build a strong R&D team, source the right components from all over the world, and then find the best foundry to produce. When the product has not yet come out, it is overwhelmingly publicized through the channels of the Facebook spectrum......

It's that simple.

As long as the product is reasonable, it is very difficult to sell well.

That's what you do!

After several years of accumulation, it has reached the time period for the outbreak.

..................

"Mr. Fei, on the side of Facebook North America, two shareholders, Google and Microsoft, proposed to hold a shareholder meeting. I said that there are some situations about the international version of Facebook, and I would like to inform you about it and discuss countermeasures. ”

Pell pushed the door open and reported.

Yu Wenfei was slightly stunned, the shareholder meeting?

Generally speaking, it is necessary to hold a shareholder meeting, and that is certainly not a trivial matter.

"Is there anything specific about it?" he asked.

Peier shook her head, "No, Microsoft said that the matter is still in the confidential stage, and it needs to be met in person by the representatives of several shareholders, and the matter is more urgent, I hope that Fei will always fly there as soon as possible." ”

Yu Wenfei nodded, indicating that he knew.

Then he instructed: "Call the Pearl Company and arrange a private jet flight as soon as possible, we ...... Let's leave tomorrow afternoon, and it will be daytime in the United States. Prepare the shareholders over there and have a meeting as soon as we get there. ”

Since the matter is urgent, don't waste time.

As for sleeping, there was enough time to rest during the flight.

Now that his Boeing 747-8 VIP has arrived, he can take that big guy over, let alone sleep, and swim on the plane if he wants.

After Pei'er walked out, Yuwen Fei got up and took out a box of cigars.

After cutting it open and lighting it, I went to the massage chair by the floor-to-ceiling window and sat down.

While smoking a cigar and looking at the scenery outside, Yu Wenfei fell into deep thought.

What is it that makes Microsoft and Google eager to hold a shareholder meeting?

Obviously, this matter must be about Facebook International or Facebook North America.

In addition, this matter must be not small, otherwise it would not be so exciting!

Even......

It could also involve Facebook North America's re-expansion or the introduction of new strategic investors.

Because it's the only thing of this level that a shareholder meeting is needed.

Then the question arises, if Microsoft and Google really want to increase their stake in Facebook North America because of something.

Do you want to say yes......

..................

This Boeing 747-8 VIP is really large and not inferior to large airliners at all.

Yu Wenfei boarded the plane with a group of several entourages for a while, and the plane took off with a roar, soaring into the sky......

After the plane calmed down, Yu Wenfei unbuckled his seat belt, turned his head and instructed Pei'er and Xue Chunlai next to him: "You have the latest data of the international version of Facebook, according to this information, help me calculate what price is more appropriate for this company to quote if it is refinanced." ”

Xue Chunlai was a little surprised, he was the chief financial officer of Facebook Holdings, and he didn't receive a notice in advance that Facebook North America was going to raise money.

He hesitated for a moment and asked, "Mr. Fei, is this shareholder meeting going to discuss the issue of refinancing?"

Yu Wenfei smiled and replied, "It should be, let's make a rough estimate first, be prepared." ”

Also, Facebook North America, when it introduced three strategic investors, Google, Microsoft, and the Walton family, made a valuation.

But months have passed, and in the meantime, Facebook International has made tremendous progress.

The current valuation of this company must not refer to the last valuation.

The valuation must be made again based on the latest data.

Yu Wenfei must be aware of what happens in order to deal with it calmly!
