Chapter 117 Advancing and Retreating Together
Is Huaxin Technology short of money? Their graphics card sales are about to catch up with the Besturn processor every month, and they are high value-added.
Intel also needs to spend a lot of money on the research and development of chip technology, and Huaxin Technology is completely foundry, which saves this cost, so the profit of a single display chip is on top of the Intel processor, plus the video memory chip......
Buffon suspects that Huaxin Technology's liquidity even exceeds that of Intel.
Would such a company care about more than 500 Pentium 586 processors?
Buffon even thought that even if Huaxin Technology made a phone call, Intel China would obediently replace all of them with the latest processors and give them a lifetime warranty.
But the other party sent Intel to the dock, which made Buffon feel the smell of conspiracy.
So as soon as Mercedesine returned to the company, he immediately approached her to understand the situation.
"How about it, does Huaxin Technology agree to our mediation agreement?"
Mercedeslin nodded and said: "It's just that there are some doubts about the confidentiality agreement, they think that adding a huge amount of confidentiality liquidated damages to the agreement, without paying the corresponding confidentiality fee, is not in line with the reciprocity of rights and obligations." ”
Buffon frowned slightly, the most important one in the entire settlement agreement is the confidentiality agreement, but he can't be the master of the $2 million confidentiality fee.
In a fax, Buffon kicks the ball to Intel's U.S. headquarters.
Feliro got the fax, threw it in the trash, and said to the secretary: "China, do you need it? Even if Intel doesn't recall, what can they do? Can they still buy Intel's processors?"
No, they will beg to buy our products, and you immediately reply to Buffon, not responding to Huaxin Technology's brutal request. ”
Elizabeth Hao Lin just walked to the door, and was stopped by Feliro, he felt that the object was Huaxin Technology, and the handling should not be so sloppy.
"Elizabeth, Huaxin Technology can give them a recall, replace the processor, or return the product, the same as the treatment in Europe and the United States, that's all. ”
......
Buffon received a call back from the headquarters and sent a notice to Huaxin Technology as soon as possible.
Intel is willing to recall the Pentium processors used by Huaxin Technology.
Huaxin Technology naturally accepted and withdrew the complaint from the Haidian District Court.
The next day, Huaxin can invite major media people to hold a press conference.
At the press conference, Wang Lang, spokesman of Huaxin Technology, praised Intel as a responsible company, and they recalled the Pentium 586 processor used by Huaxin Technology as soon as they found product problems.
Huaxin Technology praised Intel's behavior and said that it is looking forward to strengthening cooperation with Intel.
Is there anything else down there?
Major media reporters think that what products Huaxin Technology is going to release, is it because the Java language was born in advance?
After looking at Wang Lang with a confused face, he had already entered the question session.
"Hello, I am a reporter from the Daily Times, as far as I know, the scope of Intel's recall does not seem to be in Chinese mainland, and I don't know what explanation Huaxin Technology has. ”
As a press spokesman, Wang Lang naturally practiced the ability to pretend to be stupid, and when he heard the reporter's question, he took a piece of paper with a confused face and said: "Is there any? Impossible, Huaxin Technology has signed a recall agreement, and the photocopy is on the table in front of you, you can flip through it casually." ”
More than 50 media outlets and more than 100 reporters got photocopies of the recall agreement.
"It's true, Huaxin Technology got the recall agreement. ”
"What will Intel do again, is Huaxin Technology the first batch, and will recall the processors of the entire continent next?"
"This is a positive sign from Intel, and I now want to know who else is in this first batch of recalls. ”
"Hey, I thought that Huaxin Technology held a press conference to announce what bull X products, disappointed. ”
came in with a confused face, and went out with a confused face. Especially the foreign media, I originally wanted to come over and grab a front-page headline, but the news released by Huaxin Technology was too low, at most, it was placed on the homepage of the sub-page, and the headlines of the sub-page were not qualified.
The next day, Wang Anran opened the newspaper, and the domestic media still had a positive attitude towards Intel's treatment. Many media went to Intel China to inquire about the relevant recall policy and the time of the recall.
As Buffon paced back and forth in his office, he had already received requests for interviews from dozens of media outlets, all of them asking about the exact timing of Intel's recall in the mainland.
Now, the mainland's recall policy has become the focus of national attention, and it is impossible for Intel to deal with it in a low-key manner.
"Sure enough, it was a conspiracy, and Huaxin Technology planned to introduce Intel into the vortex from the beginning. ”
Buffon shook his head, he is only the president of Intel in China, and he is not qualified to dictate the recall policy of the headquarters, what he has to do now is to kick the ball back to the headquarters as soon as possible.
To this end, Buffon wrote a detailed report in which he not only described the entire process, but also assessed the possible consequences.
“...... If Intel does not handle it properly, it is likely to trigger a domino effect, and consumers in mainland China will be extremely disgusted with Intel, and within three to five years, Intel will have no image of scientific research. ”
The report quickly landed on the desk of the executive Fei Liluo.
Recall, impossible!
Intel is conquering the 320nm manufacturing process, and the cash flow of this province is being eaten by this gold-swallowing monster, and there is no spare money to recall.
Moreover, the Chinese market is too small, and the shipments of a country's Pentium 586 cannot catch up with a bay, which makes Feliro not interested at all.
He picked up his pen and wrote down an opinion without hesitation.
"Cold treatment. ”
Then write your name.
"Tell Buffon not to care about the opinions of the Chinese, what these Chinese should do should be to thank Intel, not to blame, if there is no Intel, they are still wearing animal skins and beating monkeys with wooden sticks!"
Buffon shook his head when he received the order from the headquarters, he was now caught in the middle, inside and out, not human.
"The headquarters is not paying attention to the Chinese market at all, but I am sure that if China's economy continues to be in this way, this market can at least catch up with the UK. ”
Intel China did not respond to media requests.
The people who eat melons in the mainland are unwilling, you all say in the media that Intel will recall mainland products, and after waiting for so many days, what will happen later!
A few of the brave ones picked up the sign and went to Intel China to protest, but they were quickly taken to the police station.
The media is also helpless, Intel doesn't speak, what can they do? It's not like that? If you don't want Huaxin Technology, ask for a statement?
Wang Anran is definitely not a big deal, since Intel is a dead duck with a hard mouth, Huaxin Technology doesn't mind pushing another wave.
Three days later, Huaxin Technology issued an announcement, which completely put Intel in the limelight.
"Huaxin Technology's investigation found that Intel has no relevant recall policy for Chinese mainland.
...... Huaxin Technology rejects Intel's offer to recall alone, and we will work with all Intel Pentium 586 consumers in mainland China to advance and retreat......"
