Chapter 1237: Tempting conditions that can't be refused

Even after midnight, Shangri-La's food was still uncompromised.

Wu Tao, who has jet lag, has a really good appetite, and he eats extremely happily, and he can't even bother chatting and talking.

Until Liu Ruoxi waved his mobile phone in front of him, the huge Lotus Phone screen displayed a blood-spurting yoga picture, which almost didn't make Wu Tao's mouth full of black truffles spew out.

"This ...... What is this?"

Although he occasionally browses pictures of certain websites in his spare time, it is too bold to browse on his mobile phone in such a blatant way, right?

Besides, the current mobile phone pixel limitations, the experience is not so good.

was looked at by Wu Tao with a strange look, Liu Ruoxi immediately realized that the boss wanted to fork, "You...... , you can see clearly, this is a yoga photo sent to you by the tall and straight flight attendant!!"

Swallowing the black truffle in his mouth, Wu Tao's gaze returned to the Lotus Phone screen.

Sure enough, it was Li Qiuwen's pretty face.

Although it is not real, judging from the focused expression on her face, she should enjoy this kind of yoga exercise.

It's just that she can do so many difficult movements, and it makes people's blood run high just by looking at it.

After all, that means unlocking a lot of poses.

When he turned to the last photo, Wu Tao was still unsatisfied, only to realize that it seemed that he had been staring at these photos for a long time, a little too focused, and in front of another woman.

retracted his gaze and met Liu Ruoxi's meaningful eyes, "Why don't I add her school code to your personal phone?"

For the needs of work and life, Wu Tao's number actually has four numbers.

Among them, only one little-known number was carried by him, and the other three numbers were all handed over to Liu Ruoxi to take care of.

One for the public and the other for the private, for the maintenance of high-level relationships. In addition, there is also a well-known external number, such as this number left in the company's address book.

And each number has an on-campus account number, which corresponds to it.

Li Qiuwen's school account was added to the well-known external number.

"No," Wu Tao waved his hand pretending to be profound, "I just didn't expect that you would really add her to the school." ”

Liu Ruoxi took back her mobile phone lightly and said, "If you need it for work, you may be able to use it when you can use it." ”

Wu Tao calmed down, okay, what you said is right.

Moreover, this Li Qiuwen's commission is really right, at least there are such benefits to see.

I don't know if this development continues, will it ......

Thinking of this, Wu Tao decisively stopped his reverie. If it really develops to that scale, I'm afraid it won't be far from being deleted and blocked by Liu Dami.

So, tall and straight, you better ask for more blessings.

After eating and drinking, Wu Tao sent Liu Ruoxi, who was sleepy, to sleep, to sleep, but he didn't feel sleepy.

When I think of the purpose of this trip to England, it is actually more form than meaning.

On the surface, it was to cheer for Fujiwara Rina in the open negotiations, but in fact, it was an important step in the negotiation with the Rothzadel family.

It's just that in the end, whether he can negotiate with David and reach a consensus, Wu Tao is really not sure in his heart.

Actually, it's no wonder.

At present, ARM is just a small company with a market value of less than $1 billion, and even if it is all left to David to swallow in one bite, it is not enough to stuff his teeth.

What's more, it is impossible for Wu Tao to let the other party occupy a dominant share.

Therefore, it is not easy to convince Amway David that this is a semiconductor company with great value-added potential, and that this is a transaction in which the other party takes advantage.

Still, Wu Tao still has to give it a try.

After all, the significance of Yuanqi Technology to himself is extraordinary, and in his spare time, he still hopes that fewer people will get involved as much as possible.

Early the next morning, Wu Tao finished breakfast, and not long after returning to the suite, Rina Fujiwara, who was wearing sunglasses, flashed and followed in.

Wu Tao looked back, and this costume looked like stealing something.

Accompanied by Rina Fujiwara to sit down on the sofa, Alyssa, who came with her, took the initiative to prepare coffee and morning tea.

Rina Fujiwara took off her sunglasses, apologized to Wu Tao apologetically, and then explained that this was the need for low-key driving.

Wu Tao nodded, that's right, this is what he confessed, but why do you look like a sneaky little joy.

Of course, Wu Tao didn't ask this, but asked directly about business, "How is the negotiation with ARM?"

Speaking of business, Rina Fujiwara couldn't help frowning, "Wu San, I'm really sorry, for the bid of 1 billion US dollars, Herman, the founder of ARM, was a little moved, but Chris was extremely insistent on 2 billion! So the negotiations were a bit deadlocked." ”

$2 billion?Wu Tao smiled, "Where did Chris get the courage to call out this price?"

Today, ARM's market capitalization is only about $720 million, and even considering the premium, $1 billion is very conscientious.

Moreover, in his memory, in his previous life until 2007, ARM's market value was only $1.7 billion.

Is this a desire to go to heaven?

Rina Fujiwara made a statement with Pan Tuo without concealment: "Chris said that as of last year, the total shipment of ARM chips has exceeded the 1 billion mark. With the development of smart machines and smart terminal devices in the future, their prospects are immeasurable. ”

After speaking, he hesitantly added: "I checked it, 1 billion pieces are real, and it has been applied on Nokia 7650, and the response is very good." So in terms of potential......"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Wu Tao waving his hand: "Don't let them lead your way of thinking crooked." You can ask them, how much revenue has been achieved, has it exceeded 50 million dollars?"

“…… What's more, 1 billion pieces is a lot of it? If they work with us, it's just a month's worth of shipments in the future. ”

These words immediately startled Rina Fujiwara, and even Alyssa, who came with the coffee, shook her hand and almost didn't spill the coffee.

"Oh my God, it's incredible. Fujiwara Rina did not hide her exaggerated expression, and then said with a look of embarrassment: "But Wu San, this seems to be inconvenient as a condition for negotiation. ”

That's right.

Wu Tao pondered for a while, and then thought: "In this way, when you restart negotiations today, you will start with revenue and hit the weakness of the other party." Then you tell them that if you work with us, the Lotus phone will consider using ARM chips in the future, and the Palm system will consider porting to the ARM platform to support the ARM instruction set. ”

Rina Fujiwara quickly jotted it down, "So Wu San, these are the two conditions?"

"That's right. ”

"Give a big stick, and then two sweet dates. Fujiwara Rina regained her confidence and said, "Wu Sang is really smart. ”

"No, these are two sticks, two sweet dates. "After all, once these two sweet dates don't eat each other, they will become another big stick in the blink of an eye.

Wu Tao smiled, and then said solemnly: "But Lina, you need to remember." The acquisition of ARM is actually a gift from my strategic cooperation with you in the semiconductor industry. So you are dominant. ”

Fujiwara Rina rolled her eyes, and immediately said, "Hi, Wu Sang, Rina understands." So, thank you!"
