Chapter 252: Texas Instruments
Early the next morning, Li Guangyu and others took a charter flight to Dallas, Texas, at the Los Angeles airport, where Texas Instruments is headquartered. Flash Dance
In his previous life, Li Guangyu heard the name here, but he only knew about this city because he watched the NBA. Looking at the NBA of that era in the previous life, the top three in Texas were always talked about. Due to the fact that Da Yao joined the Rockets as the champion, the influence of the NBA in the United States on the mainland has been greatly enhanced, and there are many fans discussing these teams.
In the years when Lee watched the game, the Texas top three were always a playoff team. There are many fans on the Internet who are teasing the top three in Texas, and the famous words are that the Mavericks are too weak, the Spurs are too old, and the Rockets are too strong, which was called the three major illusions of Texas at the time.
The city of Dallas is also known to many fans on the mainland because of the Mavericks, and the mutual respect between the team's owner Cuban and the German tank Nowitzki is also admired by countless fans.
On the plane, Li Guangyu said to Qin Peng, "Qin Sheng, after the signing of this contract, your group is ready to start establishing a company in Hsinchu, first recruit the company's senior personnel in place, as for the construction of Hsinchu, when the time comes, Xingguang Construction Industry, a subsidiary of Xingguang Real Estate Group, will go to Baodao to build the company, you can work here in Xiangjiang now, and then move to work after the establishment and perfection of Hsinchu." ”
Qin Peng replied, "Li Sheng, after we return to Xiangjiang, we will report your arrangements to Ms. Li Xuemei, and our group will quietly complete the establishment of the semiconductor company." ”
Li Guangyu said, "The company we set up this time needs a large number of technical personnel, and Xiangjiang obviously cannot meet our needs in this regard, your group has not yet been formally established, and Hsinchu has not yet started construction, so we are looking for more talents in the United States, especially Asian talents, many companies in the United States are not treated fairly, our group shows sincerity, I think they are willing to work in our group." ”
Qin Peng knew that Li Guangyu personally invited talents related to semiconductors last night, obviously preparing for the upcoming establishment of a semiconductor company.
Qin Peng said, "Li Sheng, you can rest assured, our group also attaches great importance to this aspect, Ms. Li Xuemei emphasized this issue in the high-level meeting, and our Xingyu Group American branch is also contacting some talents in this area in the past two months, so that they can work in our group." ”
Li Guangyu lamented that the ability of the group's top management is indeed strong enough, and they don't need to worry about many things at all, and they can handle the group's affairs in an orderly manner.
Since Los Angeles is in the U.S. Pacific time zone, Dallas is in the U.S. Central time zone. So Dallas was two hours earlier than Los Angeles, and Li Guangyu's charter flight that took off at seven o'clock at Los Angeles Airport arrived at Dallas Airport after more than two hours of flight, and it was already noon local time. 35xs
Li Guangyu and others rushed to Texas Instruments after having lunch at the hotel they had booked, and at two o'clock this afternoon, Xingyu Group signed a technology transfer agreement with Texas Instruments.
Li Guangyu didn't need to come to Dallas in person, and Qin Peng's coming this time is enough to show that the Li Group attaches great importance to this technology transfer, but Li Guangyu received an invitation from the Dallas city government and Texas Instruments at the same time, hoping that he would be able to come to Dallas and attend the reception held by the city government this evening.
Li Guangyu knew that the city government obviously knew that his group would sign a technology transfer agreement with Texas Instruments today, so he would invite him, and as for what the Dallas city government wanted to discuss with him, Li Guangyu was not too clear.
At 1:50 p.m., Li Guangyu and his entourage arrived at the office building of Texas Instruments.
Outside the building, several founders of Texas Instruments greeted Lee and others.
Li Guangyu learned about the situation of these people under the introduction of Wang Qi, general manager of the American branch of Xingyu Group, who negotiated with Texas Instruments.
Sysel H. Green, J. Eric Johnson, Eugene McDermott and Patrick E. Haggerty were the four who single-handedly created the company and had a huge impact on the semiconductor industry.
Sessel H. Green, chairman of Texas Instruments, said, "Mr. Lee, welcome to our company. This time was really a surprise to us, I didn't expect you to attach so much importance to our company and be able to accept our invitation to come in person. ”
Li Guangyu said, "I am also very happy to meet with you, Texas Instruments is at the forefront of science and technology, is leading the transformation of science and technology, the rapid development of electronic components, I believe you will be able to lead Texas Instruments to become a great enterprise." ”
These people were very happy to hear Li Guangyu's praise for their company, and the market value of Texas Instruments is not comparable to the market value of Li Guangyu's Xingyu Group, let alone the entire Li Group. This time, Li Guangyu was able to attend the signing ceremony in person, which was very face-saving for himself.
Saysel H. Green said, "Mr. Li, Mr. Qin, Ms. Gan, please among you. ”
After arriving at the Texas Instruments conference, Li Guangyu said, "Mr. Green, thank you for being able to transfer a series of technologies to our group this time, which provides a foundation for us to develop the semiconductor industry. ”
"Mr. Lee is gracious, we are also mutually beneficial, and the funds from the sale of our technology can also be invested in the research and development of new technologies, which is also a great benefit to our company." ”
Texas Instruments' executives were very satisfied with the deal with the Lee Group, and some of the technologies that Texas Instruments no longer needed could be sold to the Lee Group for a high price of $150 million, and they all felt that the company had made a lot of money this time.
After exchanging courtesies, Qin Peng and Texas Instruments Chairman Saysel H Green checked that the contract was correct, signed their names, and Qin Peng also handed the check prepared for the acquisition to Texas Instruments' financial director.
Li Guangyu said to the senior management of Texas Instruments, "Mr. Green, Mr. Johnson, after my company is established, we still need you to send some technical personnel to assist us in establishing a transistor production workshop and a chip production workshop, there is no problem in this regard, right?"
"Mr. Li, as long as your production workshop is set up and the production line is installed, we will send the company's technicians to assist you in production. This is a clause in the contract and we will not break it. ”
Li Guangyu said with a smile, "Mr. Green, then thank you, I hope that our group and you can have more cooperation in the future, if you are willing to sell the current technology at the right price, our Li Group is also willing to buy." ”
Saysel H. Green is not stupid to sell the current technology, that is, to sell, but also to wait until Texas Instruments has a new generation of products, and then sell the current generation of technology to the Lee Group. Anyway, they have a lot of money, and it is better to invest in the development of new technologies themselves.
Saysel H. Green said, "Mr. Lee, we at Texas Instruments have no plans to sell this generation of technology for the time being, and when we want to sell it in the future, we will definitely contact your Li Group." ”
