"Is Xinke's Hu and his girls arranged?"

"We hired the best banquet company in Austin, and guaranteed that those Chinese who had never seen the world could not even speak English. ”

"Alright, let's get down to business. ”

A lot has happened to Motorola in the last year. Due to the friction with ST in the joint venture company Yizhuhu Company, the relationship between the two companies can only be said to be maintained at the level of "partners". It can't be said to be detached, but it is by no means like glue.

Although the Motorola fab in Austin is open to Chinese interns, the Americans are not stupid enough to give up all their skills. Although the Chinese have learned a lot, to be honest, running a fab is too much of an over-the-top topic.

In order to hand in the perfect answers, the Chinese interns still have to work hard.

In addition, the agency business of water lithium battery battery has also made Motorola taste a lot of sweetness. Just the channel agency fee, in 1985, it was conservatively estimated that the profit was more than one billion, not to mention the application of lithium water in the analog signal of the big brother, which not only greatly reduced the volume of the mobile communication product, but also increased the battery life.

Lithium-ion rechargeable batteries are taking up a sizable chunk of Motorola's commercial landscape.

As a result, Addison, the director of communication technology who played a big role in the patent transaction of lithium water battery, has now won the title of Motorola's new CTO-chief technology officer with this achievement.

However, it wasn't all good for him, as a big challenge awaited him.

"Okay, Mr. Addison, I would like to know how the research and development progress of our third-generation water lithium battery is? Haven't you come up with a finished product yet?"

It was Williams, the CEO of Motorola, who spoke. Right. It's the former general manager of Motorola's semiconductor division, the guy who once got stuck in the training process of new interns. Although there were a few minor troubles in his tenure, the semiconductor division is the core division of Motorola, and his position has not been greatly affected by this.

Rose, Motorola's old chief executive, retired last year, and he was already a transitional figure, but Williams united several major shareholders to become Motorola's new chief executive.

After he took over the position of executive president, what was in front of him was the reality of the company's product advantages formed by heavy reliance on water lithium battery technology. This is for a time-honored multinational enterprise. It is undoubtedly the hands of people who exercise their own lifeblood. Even if ST did not show any hostility, Motorola could not rest assured that it would only be an agent.

What's more, there were a lot of twists and turns in the cooperation between Motorola and Xinke later, and the two sides did not turn their faces, but there was really not much left.

The most serious crisis and challenge facing Motorola is to master the third-generation water lithium battery technology as soon as possible and get rid of the clamp of Xinke Company.

Addison frowned, and nodded with difficulty under Williams' inquiry and the gaze of Motorola's entire management.

"The technology of the third generation of water lithium battery has basically matured, and now the problem is the industrial production of ion permeability membrane, and we Motorola have no technical advantages in this regard!"

"You can't work with other businesses. Or commissioned development?"

"We are already in contact with other companies, and the most advanced ion permeable membrane technology at the moment is naturally DuPont. Judging by our engagement with DuPont. The production of this kind of permeable membrane is very difficult, and if there is no way to significantly reduce the cost, it will be difficult for the product to have an advantage in terms of cost performance. ”

"Does DuPont have what it takes to solve production problems?"

Addison stiffened his head and affirmed, "It should be possible, but it will take time." ”

"Hurry up and contact DuPont, we must take out the low-cost permeable membrane as soon as possible. "Williams looks like he's fighting against all odds, and in front of the entire management, he must show his determination and authority.

"I see. Addison nodded in response.

"But Mr. Williams, there's a more serious problem. The product patent for the ion permeable membrane is in the hands of Yizhuhu Company, which owns 50% of the company's shares and is the main source of its profits. Even if we get the production technology of low-cost permeable membrane, the patent is still restricted by Yizhuhu Company. Unless we can get all the shares of Yizhuhu Company, the core patent of the third generation of water lithium battery is still not in our hands......"

Williams nodded, looked at the other executives, and asked in a deep voice, "Guys, do you have any suggestions for this?"

"Can we buy the shares of the Yizhuhu Company in the hands of the Chinese?" one executive asked.

"Sorry, we probably can't afford to buy 50% of the shares of Yizhuhu. Addison shook his head.

"What?" the executive who asked couldn't believe it, and there was a "you're kidding me" in his voice.

"I'm telling the truth, let's put it this way, at present, the patents and sales channels of water lithium batteries are in the hands of Yizhuhu Company, and we and Xinke Company account for half each. Last year, Xinke supplied 150,000 sets a day, and our book income in Yizhuhu was more than one billion US dollars, of course, this money has not been paid dividends yet. This means that the other shareholder, ST, also has at least $1 billion in dividends. Ladies and gentlemen, the price of the Golden Dragon batteries supplied by ST to Yizhuhu is US$20 per set, and the price of our terminal is US$80 per set. Allow me to say a foul word, this TM is more profitable than selling white/powder!"

Addison pursed his lips, apparently sneering at the guys who didn't know the value of lithium water, and then continued his rambling calculations. Truth be told, the account had been in his stomach more than once, and he was more eager than anyone else to buy the Heterophyllous Lake Company, yet he knew better than anyone how difficult it was.

"If you want to acquire Yizhuhu Company, you obviously can't use the fixed asset accounting method. Based on a standard five-year yield, even if we assume that the market is hungry in the first year, demand is extremely much higher than supply. After meeting the market demand in the next few years. The demand is calculated in decreasing quantities - uh. To be honest, these words can also deceive fools, the current supply of lithium water battery can not even make up for the loss of the US market, which is a serious shortage of supply. What's more, at present, lithium battery only supplies the US market, and there is basically no lithium battery supply in the world except for China, Japan and the United States. ”

"So, even the most conservative calculations, the company will earn more than $4 billion in the next five years. Coupled with the value of the basic patent of lithium water battery. Seriously, the Chinese were crazy enough to register all possible patents. Intermediate patents, preparation method patents, product patents, solution formula patents, amorphous patents, and all composition patents. This is also the reason why our third-generation water lithium battery technology cannot be bypassed by Yizhuhu Company, as long as it is still developed on the basis of water lithium battery, we have to bow to Yizhuhu Company. ”

"The next five years of earnings plus the acquisition of these patents, or the supply contracts of ST and the distribution channels that we have put in place. Ladies and gentlemen, Heterogeneous Lake is now a 'poor billionaire'. Addison said with two fingers out of his hands and bent them next to his head, "I mean." This broken company is really worth tens of billions. ”

"And, I have to warn you. Please make a decision as early as possible. Because of this damn broken company, the expected price is skyrocketing every day. The reason why it did not attract the attention of the market is simply that it does not disclose its accounts, so no one knows its value. And we at Motorola are a public company, which means that we have to disclose our 1985 annual report before April, and then the world will know the value of the company. ”

All the Motorola executives present looked at each other when Addison said this, and they never thought that the Heterophylla Company, which was almost a puppet, really wanted to study the original value of such a large sum of money. Listed companies must disclose the annual report of the previous year in the first fiscal quarter of each year, think about it, if the shares in the hands of ST are acquired by other consortiums or multinational companies, Motorola will never complete the strategic plan of acquiring Yizhuhu without taking off a layer of skin.

If Yizhuhu Company does not grasp it in its own hands, Motorola's third-generation water lithium battery strategy will not be able to advance, otherwise no matter how much you do, you will end up working for others, which is the pain of not having the basic patent in hand.

Even with such a big risk, it is impossible for Motorola to stop now. Not to mention how much money has been invested in the research and development of the third generation of lithium water battery, Motorola loses a lot of money every year due to research and development failure, and it is by no means unaffordable. The key is the benefits brought by the water lithium battery technology, as well as the future market prospects of the third generation of water lithium batteries.

Theoretically, the ultra-high energy density, charging speed, and low cost of the three generations of water lithium batteries, the fully developed lithium battery market, the global annual two or three billion is absolutely no problem. If you take into account the use of lithium water batteries and electric motors to partially replace internal combustion engines, the 100 billion dollar market is also it!

As long as Motorola is still an enterprise with ideals and constantly pursuing profits and capital, it is impossible for it to refuse such a temptation, which is an opportunity to build a great enterprise!

There was a moment of silence in the conference room before the executives offered uncertain comments.

"Five billion dollars, if we issue additional shares to raise funds in the market, can we ......"

Without waiting for the executive to finish speaking, Williams preemptively rejected the proposal: "The sudden issuance of additional shares will inevitably attract the attention of the market, how can we explain the use of such a large sum of money as five billion?"

"What about targeted financing?"

"To make matters worse, the wolf noses on Wall Street are much more sensitive than the average stockholder. ”

"Bank loans?"

"Banks and Wall Street wear a pair of pants. ”

"What's more, I'm afraid this information won't be hidden for a long time, maybe someone in our senior management has a relationship with Wall Street, or there are many investment institutions in Motorola's major shareholders that are not reliable at all......"

As Williams said this, little Edgar of the Legal Department moved his ass slightly unnaturally.

"And what do you mean, Mr. President?"

Williams nodded: "I have been in contact with Chinese Hu of ST Corporation, and as far as my intuition is concerned, he seems to have invested more attention in wafer technology than lithium water battery." ”

When Addison heard this, he hurriedly objected: "But Mr. President, after we stuck the neck of the Chinese wafer factory interns last time, we signed a supplementary agreement with them, and this means can no longer be used!"

"It's not necessarily the way it was last time. We can change the means. For example. These Chinese seem to have good internship results? I think we can keep them all. Staying in the U.S. and working, we at Motorola can offer them a new job, a job in the U.S.! I don't think anyone can resist the temptation, right?"

"They have a work agreement, and if we poach ST, we will probably have to pay high default fees. ”

Williams scoffed: "Addison, that's just an agreement." We can choose to violate the agreement first and then compensate the Chinese. At least for this reason. It can greatly alleviate our financial pressure. By the time the court decides, the fines we pay and the money we paid to acquire the company may be less than $5 billion. Besides, it's just a ploy, and it's not going to poach all their workers. As long as the Chinese Huken sells its shares to us at a low price, we will stop this action. ”

"Allow me to object to you doing this!" Addison said sincerely, "I think it's foolish to make ST our enemy completely." ”

"It's just a Chinese company, and they were lucky enough to come up with lithium water. Williams disagreed: "As long as we get the Yizhuhu Company, China's Hu will not even be qualified to enter Motorola's headquarters." ”

"You don't know ...... him"

Williams resolutely interrupted Addison's speech: "Well, I don't need to get to know a Chinese nouveau riche. Regarding the scheme I said. What do others think?"

......

"Xinxin, Jiajia, ouch. It's a lot heavier!"

Lu Yinglong held his two daughters with a happy face. I haven't been with my family for almost half a year, and I'm alone in the United States busy with a team of hundreds of interns, how can I say that I don't have a little psychological exhaustion?

However, the moment he saw his two daughters, Lu Yinglong's exhaustion disappeared without a trace in an instant.

Not only him, but dozens of big girls and little daughters-in-law who went to the United States with Hu Wenhai seemed to have abandoned the shyness and shyness of the Chinese at this time and became enthusiastic and unrestrained.

Holding hands, hugging, and even kissing in public. The bachelors who poked their heads out of the dormitory window erupted into earth-shattering noises, and there was no way to separate them.

In fact, one floor has already been emptied in the dormitory, and a "cave room" has been specially prepared for these people, so that they can be newlywed.

In the ghost crying wolf howl of a group of bachelors, a pair of young couples either enjoy a rare reunion, or simply provoke to make intimate actions in the eyes of everyone. There was even a male colleague who was quite bored on weekdays, who actually picked up his wife, and then turned around and went upstairs.

It is only at this time that these young people who study selflessly on weekdays can release their hormones to their heart's content.

Even bachelors have to take the opportunity to shout, make noise, and carnival loudly, otherwise it is not enough to comfort the suffering and sweat they have paid.

Although they are bachelors, they are optimistic by nature. Although poor, the possibilities are endless. Reckless, but energetic. What they have is not a small but certain happiness, but a great and hard work, which is the spirit of the people of the eighties. To describe them with a slogan that has been shouted badly, the unique magic of people in the eighties is to be strong.

No matter how much scar literature, how many public elites, and how many historical records, the workers of the eighties were not as ****, numb, ignorant, and depressed as they said. On the contrary, perhaps they are immature and live in poverty, but their spiritual world is rich. Young people in this era do not need to be oblique 45° and scissor hands for photography, and naturally have a spirit on their faces. They don't need contact lenses, their eyes are naturally as charming as the starry sky. There is no need for cosmetics, and the friendship alabaster is more handsome than any stick star!

Hurdle vests and blue-gray overalls, rubber shoes and heirloom Shanghai watches, just a few things, standing there is a spit and a nail.

Hu Wenhai sometimes thinks about it, but in fact, he feels sorry for the younger generations of those born in the 80s. This group of young people in the 80s was cultivated by the state according to the standards of successors, and they really became successors in the 80s, so there are no regrets, right?

It's a pity that the younger generations born in this era don't have this blessing, and the education they receive in school is still to train them as the successors of the country. Politics classes in elementary and junior high schools are the organization of the state and the essence of the law, and the true face of society is laid bare in front of them.

However, when those juniors came out of school, they had to face an embarrassing situation, and they were trained according to the standards of successors, only to find that the country no longer needed them as successors. The imbalance between knowledge and reality brings about the tearing of life and the social gap.

The saddest thing is not a numb life, the most cruel thing is to give a person dignity, and then completely trample on his dignity.

People born in the 80s, as long as they pass the political class when they go to school, how can they not be able to see the essence of society 30 years later? The most painful thing is this, you can see the world clearly, you are taught "exploitation", "surplus value", "communist manifesto" and other things from elementary school, and then you will clearly realize that you are being exploited and taken away from the surplus value, even if you shout the Internationale, you still have to be sent to be exploited in order to live and live well, and you have to be happily exploited.

Isn't there nothing more cruel than this? You can't live in a muddy way, you have to be sober and painful to realize the reality of society, and you have to bow to reality.

Memorizing political topics and memorizing disciple rules, I really can't tell which one is "happy".

Hu Wenhai and the Girl Scouts arrived in Austin at noon, and in the evening, Austin's best banquet company set up a lavish and sumptuous dinner on the grass behind the dormitory. Chinese interns with their families poured out of the dormitory and carnivaled on the grass along with the bachelor interns.

Perhaps it is because they have been in the United States for a long time, and these young people have learned more or less the skills of the American people to be good at singing and dancing. A few young people danced to the carnival music, bringing along those colleagues who were not very good at dancing, and finally the whole meadow was full of scenes of "demons dancing".

Hu Wenhai held a bottle of beer in his hand, sat in the corner and roasted a whole leg of lamb on the grill of an American BBQ, and took a knife in his hand to cut and eat, but he was not comfortable.

"Mr. Hu, Motorola's Addison wants to see you. ”

"Oh, that's an old friend, please come here. Hu Wenhai opened a bottle of beer with a bang and motioned for Qin Kai to come with a bottle too, but he was predictably refused.

"EDITION, EDITION, long time no see! Ha, Motorola's smartest EDITION!"

Hu Wenhai shoved the beer into Addison's hand and touched him.

"Mr. Hu is really interested, the world of young people is enviable!"

Addison is now in his early forties, and no matter how well the American people can sing and dance, after all, they still have to take care of the parts of old arms and legs.

"You may be seated, Mr. EDITION. Motorola has made a lot of money this year, I heard that you are already the CTO of Motorola?

"Haha, this is thanks to the water lithium battery technology of Xinke Company. Motorola may make a lot of money, but ST only makes more!"

"Hey, our Xinke is just a small company, and it can't compare to Motorola! There is only one King Long battery that is the main product, how can it be compared with so many product lines of Motorola? I heard that the profit of Yizhuhu Company last year was more than 2 billion, I don't know when we will pay dividends?"

"Well, it may take some time for the accountants to prepare. Addison smiled awkwardly.

"I came today because I have something I want to inform Mr. Hu. ”

"Oh, what's the matter with Motorola?"

"It's not a big deal, Motorola hopes to buy the shares of Yizhuhu Company in Mr. Hu's hands, please make a price." ”

Hu Wenhai nodded, the water lithium battery was originally going to be sold, and he didn't take Yizhuhu Company too seriously. When he has a wafer factory in his hands, the cash flow will only be greater than it is now, and he doesn't care whether he sells it or eats dividends.

"I think Mr. Addison has also seen last year's company's financial report, and the annual profit of more than 2 billion yuan is deducted from operating costs. ”

"That's right. Addison nodded stiffly.

"In that case, I won't say more. Hu Wenhai stretched out a finger: "Ten billion dollars, a fixed price." Cash, stocks, and bonds, any payment method is fine. (To be continued.) )
