"What conditions, please say Mr. Fei. ”

Peng Mingsheng said with a smile.

"The integration of Lenovo and IBM's personal computer business unit is a very cumbersome matter, and the reason why we acquired IBM's personal computer division is actually the most important thing is that your company has a strong technical foundation, as well as a large number of excellent software and hardware engineers! Therefore, I would like to ask IBM to provide technical assistance to the new Lenovo Group in the next few years, help us develop new models, and solve problems such as software, systems, servers, PC patent infringement, etc. Yu Wenfei said with a sincere face.

IF YOU JUST BUY THE THINKPAD BRAND, OR THE SO-CALLED GLOBAL SALES CHANNEL, IT'S REALLY NOT WORTH SPENDING BILLIONS OF DOLLARS!

Dell, Hewlett-Packard, the reason why they are not interested in IBM's personal computer business unit is here.

Moreover, they also have the corresponding technology, although it is not as high-end as IBM's, but Dell HP does not make high-end computers in the first place.

However, many domestic manufacturers do not have the technology.

Why can't domestic computer brands go abroad, it's not that they don't want to, but as soon as they go abroad, they will be sued in various ways!

Lenovo has suffered this kind of thing, and the first company to sue them for patent fees is none other than IBM!

If there is only one company that can solve all the patent problems related to the whole PC, it is IBM.

Therefore, Yu Wenfei sold Knorr Supermarket in order to acquire IBM's personal computer business unit.

In this way, it not only directly ranks among the forefront of the industry in computer hardware and related processes, but also lays the foundation for entering the mobile phone industry in the future.

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

Listening to Yu Wenfei's request, Peng Mingsheng frowned slightly and thought about it seriously.

It is no problem to provide technical assistance, or even to provide the corresponding authorization, or to coordinate with other companies to provide authorization.

However, it is a bit too much to assist the new Lenovo in the development of new models.

The relationship is not a one-time transaction, and the company has to provide after-sales service for several years.

"That...... Maybe our engineers are also busy with tasks and don't have ......"

Peng Mingsheng just wanted to refuse euphemistically, but was interrupted by Yu Wenfei.

"It doesn't matter, the new Lenovo can pay for it. ”

Peng Mingsheng's eyes widened, after IBM's transformation, it is mainly to do software service business, to put it simply, it is to make money by technology and services, if the new Lenovo is willing to pay, this matter is easy to say.

He simply nodded, "That's no problem, we'll be happy to assist your company in developing a new model, and if there's a software need, just ask." ”

These things, of course, will also be written into the acquisition agreement, and the assistant next to him has already recorded the conversation between the two.

Bulk acquisitions, if you elaborate, involve too many things, especially such cross-border acquisitions. Therefore, Yuwenfei first acquired Lenovo, and then acquired IBM's personal computer business, also in order to take over more smoothly after the acquisition.

Under Yang Yuanqing, there is a mature team that can directly connect with IBM, saving Yuwenfei a lot of trouble.

There is no problem with the purchase price, and the following is the details of the acquisition.

The first question, of course, is how to pass the review of the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States of America and even the inquiry of Congress.

Peng Mingsheng said confidently: "There is no need to worry too much about this, our company has hired a number of powerful political figures, including the former national security adviser, as advisers to solve similar problems." Of course, it would be much more efficient if you could find some people on your side to help lobby. ”

Yu Wenfei nodded, "I will ask the Walton family to come forward, it should be able to speed up the review efficiency." ”

Peng Mingsheng's eyes widened again, of course he knew very well what the Walton family meant in the United States.

It can be said that although they are all giants in the industry and world-famous large companies, IBM's influence in the political world is completely incomparable with Wal-Mart.

Not to mention anything else, in terms of job creation alone, Wal-Mart can throw a few streets behind IBM.

It's the same in any country, the more people in control of the entrepreneur's job, the greater the influence!

For Yu Wenfei's energy, he needs to evaluate it again, and it is obviously not easy to be related to the Walton family.

On December 10, a piece of news first caused a sensation in the United States, and then it flew across the ocean and spread to China.

"100 Years of IBM Changing Hands! Buyers Suspected of Coming from the Mainland!"

The headline of this news is quite terrifying, and people who don't know think that IBM has sold the entire company!

Of course, this is also the reporter's usual method, in the news, it is naturally written that IBM's personal computer business unit has been sold, and the buyer is from Chinese mainland.

However, the more such news, the easier it is to arouse the interest of readers.

So, after the news spread, it became that IBM was acquired by the Chinese!

IBM is synonymous with the PC industry in many people's minds, so how can it be acquired by a foreign company?

On the American Internet, when discussing this matter, netizens were of course full of righteous indignation.

"I'm against it! How can IBM be sold to a foreign company? And it's a Chinese company, that's outrageous, when did China get rich to this extent? Aren't they still with electricity there, so what can they do if they buy IBM?"

"Upstairs idiot, haven't you ever stepped out of your yard, let alone been to China? Don't say those stupid things, you'll only make people laugh at you!"

"One thing to say, I just traveled to China this year, and the development there is really stunning. In the past, like the idiot above, I thought that China was so poor and backward, but after actually going to see it, I could only say that the news media in our country are too disgusting, and they talk nonsense with their eyes open. ”

"OKAY, OKAY, DON'T DIVERT FROM THE TOPIC, NO MATTER WHAT, I STILL DON'T APPROVE OF IBM SELLING THE PERSONAL COMPUTER BUSINESS TO A CHINESE COMPANY, THINKPAD, MY FAVORITE LAPTOP, CAN I NEVER BUY IT AGAIN?"

"Don't worry, you didn't take the news seriously, the company that bought IBM's personal computer business, and also bought Alien Computer, as well as one of China's largest computer brand companies. After the three are integrated, it is said that the scale is not smaller than HP Dell. MOREOVER, THINKPAD IS NOT GOING AWAY, AND THE ENTIRE BUSINESS UNIT REMAINS IN THE UNITED STATES, BUT WITH A CHANGE OF MAJOR SHAREHOLDERS. ”

On the American Internet, there are also rational netizens who look at problems more objectively.

Unlike the United States, when the news reached China, the reaction was too sensational......
