Chapter 627: Everything is in plain sight
The bigwigs discussed it, and the next day, many bigwigs went abroad to Europe for a friendly visit, and they didn't know what they were doing secretly.
A week later, many countries issued statements that Tianqi Group violated the principle of fair trade by allowing suppliers to choose one of the two, and hoped that Tianqi Group could make changes.
The pressure began to press towards the sky, and it was clear that Europe had to speak out, and several bigwigs in the United States were in Europe, so they must have reached some agreement in secret.
Now just issued a statement asking Xu Ping'an to cancel the two-choice rule, which has withstood a lot of pressure, and if you change the company, you will definitely start to impose fines and sanctions in minutes.
Again, Xu Ping'an's public statement of choosing one of the two does violate the principle of fair competition, although Lao Mei often does this, but it is not directly said above board.
This kind of thing can only be done but not said, and now Xu Ping'an's direct and upright statement, although it is very domineering, it also makes many people sad.
However, this time is different from the past, the bigwigs are very supportive of the decision of the Apocalypse Group, and they must fight for their own interests by taking this opportunity, do you also need to talk about the blockade of our other enterprises.
Peace is fought for, interests are fought over, and everything depends on your strength.
The secret confrontation began, and under the mediation of Europe, the two sides began to negotiate, which was carried out very secretly, and ordinary people and the media did not know about it.
Er and others also called Xu Ping'an, sometimes they have to back down when it's time to back down, if it really comes to a certain point, I'm afraid it will be a lose-lose ending.
When necessary, Europe will definitely have a front with the United States, which will not benefit the Apocalypse Group.
After Xu Ping'an hung up the phone, he let out a long sigh, stronger than people, I can't help but bow your head.
Europe is too deeply involved with the United States, and when it really comes to a critical time, it would rather endure labor pains than attack the Apocalypse Group, and when the time comes, the current good situation of the Apocalypse Group will be ruined.
The next day, Wei Dongshuo went to Xu Ping'an's residence, talked with Xu Ping'an seriously, and left after more than an hour.
The big guy of the United States very much wants to completely play hooligans to kill the Apocalypse Group, but now Europe has no way if it does not fully cooperate, and only a limited number of countries cooperate, which will put pressure on the Apocalypse Group and Xu Ping'an.
What's more, this time the Celestial Empire government is very tough and will never allow the Apocalypse Group to suffer unfair treatment, and the Celestial Empire now has the strength to protect the legitimate interests of its own enterprises from being infringed upon.
Under the entanglement of all aspects of the situation, we can only talk about it, the stock prices of so many domestic companies have plummeted, and soon, the market share of these companies will also be greatly affected, and the profitability will decline, which will affect many industries.
The impact of the Angstrom-level chip is too great, and now the Celestial Empire has made it clear that it is protecting the Tianqi Group, even if it expands the scope to attack the Celestial Empire enterprises, the Celestial Empire will not care, after all, the Tianqi Group's scientific and technological capabilities are very strong.
Again, the bigwigs are still worried, now Xu Ping'an has not yet developed science and technology towards the military industry, and if he really starts to develop and improve the military strength of the Celestial Empire in an all-round way, it will be dangerous.
Now the super fish oil and super pancreas are still in normal production, once Xu Ping'an can't produce normally, the shock will be even greater.
But it's not so easy to talk about now, in the past, it relied on the technical advantages in semiconductors to cut off the supply of Celestial Empire enterprises, but now, this trick is not good, and it is the turn of the Celestial Empire to cut off the supply of Angstrom-level chips to the United States.
For the Angstrom-level chips, I'm afraid it will be difficult for other countries to cooperate, and the negotiations in the secret have begun, and the United States is really anxious, and several companies are still barely insisting, and there will be no good news for a while, and it is inevitable that there will be layoffs again.
Xu Ping'an is not worried at all now sitting firmly in Diaoyutai, there are many projects in his hands, but Tianqi Scientific Research Group did not apply for patents last year, not because there was no technological breakthrough, but directly sealed.
Time passed slowly, and on this day, Chen Qingshan came to Xu Ping'an's house, talked with Xu Ping'an for a while, and left.
Less than 24 hours before the time of choosing one of the two, Xu Ping'an issued a statement on social networking sites to lift the restriction because it violated the principle of fair competition by doing so.
After this statement was issued, the stock market began to level off, and many companies around the world breathed a long sigh of relief that the agreement was finally reached.
The big guy of the rice country is holding his breath this time, wait for me, I will find a chance to clean you up.
If you really tear your face and fight hard with the Celestial Empire, you can only benefit from Europe, and it is estimated that those people wish for this kind of scene in their hearts.
Once both sides lose, the world's center of gravity will return to Europe.
The Celestial Empire knows about this matter, the United States also knows this matter, and there are many people in Europe who are sitting with this kind of intention in their hearts, and the United States has no choice but to make concessions.
Secretly, many agreements have been reached, and the international market has begun to calm down, but the undercurrents are beginning to gather energy, which is not a joke.
On this day, Qualcomm issued a statement that Leonardo resigned as chairman of the company, and Nielsen became the new chairman of Qualcomm.
This news shocked many people, Qualcomm has maintained high growth under the leadership of Leonardo over the years, and the current decline in Qualcomm's performance is not Leonardo's problem.
directly asked Leonardo to resign as chairman, which seemed very impersonal.
In fact, the board of directors of Qualcomm is reluctant to resign Leonardo, because Leonardo has a good personal relationship with Xu Ping'an, and once Leonardo leaves, it will be difficult to cooperate with Tianqi Group again in the future.
It's just that Leonardo has made up his mind, and after so many years, Leonardo's painstaking experience has really tired, and he must take a good rest.
After resigning, Leonardo also secretly cleared his Qualcomm shares, which have no value, because Xu Ping'an has already plugged into the chip industry, and it is impossible to stop halfway.
The board of directors had long been warned not to get involved in this, but it still came in, and Leonardo had the intention of slowly increasing his holdings of Qualcomm shares and turning it into a family-owned business, but now everything is in vain.
More than half a month has passed, and when Xu Ping'an was drinking tea in the office, Liu Wenjun came in and reported, "Mr. Xu, Leonardo, the former chairman of Qualcomm, is downstairs and wants to see you."
Xu Ping'an was stunned after hearing this, Leonardo came, how could it be so sudden, why didn't he give himself a call before coming, no matter what, the personal relationship between the two parties is still very good.
"Please" Xu Ping'an said, and Liu Wenjun turned around and left.
It didn't take a long time for Liu Wenjun to bring Leonardo over, Xu Ping'an stood up to greet him, and hugged Leonardo with a smile.
"Why don't you give me a call, I'll arrange someone to pick you up at the airport," Xu Ping'an said with a smile.
Leonardo also smiled, Xu Ping'an's attitude was obviously to treat himself as a friend, "It was decided to come to the Celestial Empire temporarily, and I will leave tomorrow and fly directly to Europe."
Xu Ping'an nodded, and turned his head to look at Liu Wenjun, "The best restaurant will book a private room for me, and we will have a good drink at noon."
Liu Wenjun nodded after hearing this and turned to leave, Xu Ping'an beckoned Leonardo to sit down and drink tea together, chatting while making tea again.
After a cup of tea in his stomach, Leonardo began to talk to Xu Ping'an about business, and after telling the matter, Xu Ping'an was very stunned, looking at Leonardo, and his heart welled up with the feeling of underestimating Leonardo before.
After resigning as chairman of Qualcomm, Leonardo directly sold all the Qualcomm shares in his hand, and he didn't care about losing money, he knew it very well.
Since Xu Ping'an has intervened in the chip business, it is impossible to exit, Qualcomm's shares will become more and more worthless in the future, and the market share will begin to shrink wildly.
If you shoot early, you will be satisfied without losing money.
Leonardo is not only an industry of Qualcomm shares, but also another family business, but because of this, many people in the outside world do not know about it.
Europe's Sun Foundation, Baide Fine Chemical Group, Dines Seiko Electronics Group, Roaring Power Group, etc., all belong to the Leonardo family business and have 100% absolute control.
Although each company does not belong to the industry leader, the profits that can be created are not low, and together, the strength is definitely above the average international giant.
This time, I came here to discuss cooperation with Xu Ping'an, and there is a lot of room for cooperation between the two sides, and Leonardo will stay in Europe and Spain in the future.
Leonardo is a dual citizen, the United States and Spain have both nationality, and many Western countries recognize dual nationality.
The Space League could continue to exist, and many of the projects were transferred to the family business under Leonardo's operation, and a new scientific research group was formed in Spain, which transferred these projects to the new company.
"Leonardo, this time I offended the bigwigs over there to death"
"For so many years, it is the first time that those bigwigs have lost face in the international market, if you cooperate with me on a large scale, don't you worry about retaliation from the United States" Xu Ping'an looked at Leonardo and said directly.
Leonardo smiled directly, "Xu, you don't need to worry about this, I have a solution, after all, this is a Spanish business"
"Again, now that the trade between Europe and the Celestial Emperor is growing rapidly, I believe that in about ten years of development, Europe will tilt towards the other side of the scale."
"The reality is that they don't make the right choice, and our family doesn't have any energy in Spain."
After listening to Leonardo's words, Xu Ping'an smiled directly, picked up the teacup and looked at Leonardo, Leonardo also smiled and picked up the teacup and touched Xu Ping'an's teacup, and the two of them dried up directly.
You don't need to say much, you just need to know it in your heart, and everything is in plain sight.
