Chapter 649 Raise the card

Afternoon. Flash Dance

Hu Yang attended the board meeting of Xintong International.

Although North America did not directly suppress Xintong International this time, the company realized that there is no wind and no waves, and the public opinion in North America is not a rehearsal for the next crisis.

In the end, the board of directors reached a consensus to fully support the development of domestic lithography equipment, and sent people to negotiate with Bolong Optics to actively participate in the research and development of the other party's lithography machine, and at the same time proposed to participate in Bolong Optics.

In fact, high-end lithography equipment is a very niche product, and the combination of equipment manufacturers and application manufacturers is the general trend.

For example, ASML not only absorbs funds from companies such as S Star, Taipower, and Intel in the research and development of EUV (extreme violet lithography machine) projects, but these international giants also hold a small part of ASML's equity.

For Xintong International's initiative, Populus euphratica is happy to see.

"Mr. Meng, everyone, let's eat together at noon?"

At today's meeting, Zhang Rulin did not attend because he was on vacation abroad, and all the other directors were present. After the meeting was over, Hu Yang invited everyone to lunch.

This little thing, everyone is still very face-saving.

The operation of the entire company of Xintong International is basically carried out around Meng Rusong. There is no way, people should be respected and empowered accordingly if they have the ability.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, the proposals proposed by Meng Rusong in the board of directors rarely fail to pass.

In addition, Hu Yang's control over Xintong International is getting stronger and stronger, and Meng Rusong is his confidant. Many factors have contributed to the current situation, and the company has really embarked on the fast track of rapid development.

All the directors at the meeting happily had a lunch together before leaving. The specific work fell on Meng Rusong's head, and he would definitely have to be busy for a while.

"Mr. Hu, Bolong Optics, you can say hello over there, no problem, right?"

Hu Yang and Meng Rusong came to the end, Meng Rusong hoped to speed up the negotiation process with Bolong Optics, so he begged Hu Yang to use his influence.

I think the strategic alliance between Xintong International and Bolong Optics can be regarded as a real win-win situation.

I'll talk to Charisma Semiconductor when I get back and get them involved. In this way, the high-end lithography equipment of your two companies has a stable supply channel, and Bolong Optics not only has long-term and stable customers, but also has an additional financing channel. ”

Hu Yang agreed very happily, and the plan proposed by Meng Rusong is also a common practice in the world.

From any point of view, there was no need for him to object.

"With Mr. Hu coming out, this matter will be done. Well, I'll go first, there are too many things in the company. When I'm free, I'll drink with you. ”

Meng Rusong got what he wanted, pulled his legs and left.

Hu Yang watched the other party get into the car, and watched the car go away, and couldn't help but laugh and scold: "This world! Even Meng Rusong has become so realistic!"

Of course, this is just a joke. After Hu Yang got into his car, he called Xu Younian and asked him to propose a meeting of the company's board of directors, which would be held next Monday.

There are five days left between now and the meeting. Hu Yang hopes to unify his thinking with Xu Younian and others first, so as not to make mistakes in the board meeting.

Xu Younian notified the directors of the company, and then rushed from the capital to the magic capital.

"Mr. Hu, Xintong International has already sent someone to contact us, and Mr. Dai and I are still very interested in their plan. ”

The night before the extraordinary board meeting, Hu Yang ate out with Xu Younian, Zhang Xiao and Dai Xiangjun.

When the wine was half-drunk, Zhang Xiao turned the topic back and talked about the plan of Xintong International.

This plan, strictly speaking, is a bit like cross-shareholding, but not quite. This time it is only a one-way shareholding, that is, Xintong International intends to hold a small part of the equity of Bolong Optics through private placement.

The specific proportion has not yet been negotiated, and in principle, it is appropriate not to exceed 20%.

"Mr. Xu, what is your opinion?"

Since Zhang Xiao provoked the conversation, Hu Yang simply discussed the matter with them while drinking.

"I agree with Mr. Zhang, but I think it's better to think about this matter. For example, if Charm Semiconductor also intends to do this, then the company may wish to take them into account in the new round of additional issuance. ”

Xu Younian hadn't seen Populus Hu before today, so he didn't know that Populus Hu already had this idea.

"I have already talked about this matter with Mr. Yan of Charm Semiconductor, and he made it clear that he is very interested in participating in Bolong Optics.

Recently, he has been on patrol in the field, and it is estimated that he will arrive in the magic capital by tomorrow afternoon at the latest. Mr. Zhang, you will be responsible for negotiating with them at that time, and the conditions will be the same as those of Xintong International. ”

Anyway, if a charm semiconductor is added, the total amount of additional issuance will not change. At that time, the two companies will share 20% of the shares, and no amount of it will be possible.

Zhang Xiao and Xu Younian both nodded, thinking that Hu Yang's arrangement was very good.

Dai Xiangjun said with a smile:

"Mr. Hu, people have locked our equipment, so we don't have to worry about sales in the future. However, Xintong International has high requirements for equipment, and I hope we will not disappoint people!"

Watching the encounter with microelectronic equipment, these guys here inevitably have some sad feelings.

Dai Xiangjun knew that Zhang Xiao's work on building a new supply chain was not going very well. So, can the company's high-end lithography machine really achieve mass production after half a year?

Of course, he wouldn't say this kind of discouragement in front of Populus Hu.

Obedient and listening, Hu Yang immediately understood what Dai Xiangjun was hiding. However, he didn't say anything, but looked at Zhang Xiao.

"Mr. Hu, at present, it is a little difficult to build a new supply chain, but it is not to the extent that it cannot be solved. Give me a little more time, I won't let you down!"

Zhang Xiao has his own ideas, he has not been in Bolong Optics for a long time, if he can't complete the task this time, it will inevitably affect his status in the company.

So, he can't accept defeat no matter what. You can only give it a go.

For Zhang Xiao's spirit of daring to meet challenges, Hu Yang admires it very much.

He looked at the other party and said, "Mr. Zhang, let's work together." Things are man-made, and there is no hurdle that cannot be overcome. In addition, Mr. Dai, don't think that the addition of Xintong International and Charm Semiconductor will dilute the income of the original shareholders, and it is very beneficial to the company's development to lock in sales in advance and let them participate in R&D. ”

As a minority shareholder of the company, Dai Xiangjun has to explain to him clearly in advance, regardless of whether he has other thoughts or not.

Dai Xiangjun hurriedly expressed his position and said: "Mr. Hu, I have no opinion, and I will not have any extra thoughts. ”

Hu Yang nodded, and stopped talking. They are all smart people, and some things are thorough, so there is no need to say too much.

Following.

Bolong Optics' additional issuance plan was unsurprisingly approved by the board of directors.

The next thing is to negotiate the specific details on several sides. The Board of Directors has delegated to Xu Younian full responsibility for reaching an agreement as soon as possible.

Hu Yang didn't meddle in these things, he was still very relieved about Xu Younian, Zhang Xiao and others. However, he himself has not been idle for a while, and has been paying attention to the changes in microelectronic devices from beginning to end, especially the changes in stock prices.

The hard work paid off, as soon as he went to work that morning, Yu Hongbo rushed in and said: "Boss, the microelectronic equipment issued a performance warning announcement in the morning, and the opportunity we are waiting for has come." ”

As of yesterday's close, the share price of microelectronic equipment was 12.53 yuan. In the morning, the company suspended trading for an hour, and an announcement was issued.

The announcement clearly describes the difficulties the company is currently facing, and some parts in the reserve are less than three months of use. Due to the restrictions in North America, the company will face the risk of discontinuation of high-end lithography machines within three months to the next month, and it is expected to report a loss for the full year.

"Then get ready to do it, and when the market opens, it is estimated that the selling will be very large, and you can start buying here." ”

Microelectronics has a small circulation in the market, with only 80 million shares. The number of shares that can be absorbed is not too large, but it is very meaningful.

This time, the purchase of shares of microelectronic equipment from the secondary market was carried out in the name of Bolong Optics.

At the last board meeting, Bolong Optics has authorized Huijia International Investment to operate for them, and the money has been transferred to the securities account.

"Okay, boss!"

Yu Hongbo suddenly came to his senses and immediately ran out. He and his team have been preparing for a long time, and this opportunity is certainly not to be missed.

Trading in microelectronics stocks resumed after an hour-long temporary suspension. It's just that the huge amount of selling instantly blocked the fall limit, and the price was set at the price of 11.28 yuan.

"Assistant Yu, what should I do now?

The huge drop limit often indicates that there is a certain decline in the later stage, and it is difficult to estimate how much it will fall.

Yu Hongbo looked at the sealed order, and there were about tens of millions of shares waiting in line to be sold.

"Let's start buying, in batches, with a cap of 10 million shares. ”

Yu Hongbo's heart was not shocked, and he still gave the order according to the plan.

As a result, at a time when many investors are abandoning microelectronic devices, the large number of buying orders is surprising.

During this period, the microelectronic equipment opened the fall limit three times, and then sealed it again. So that many short-term customers do not dare to enter the market, it is obvious that the long funds rushing in today have been suppressed.

After Yu Hongbo bought 10 million shares, he stopped all his actions. In the next few days, there is a high probability that microelectronic devices will still fall.

He is ready to change his operation strategy next, continue to buy slowly, and will not be as fierce as today, throwing hundreds of millions of dollars in as soon as he makes a move.

For the next few days, Hu Yang stayed in Hongbo's office almost every morning. Yu Hongbo and several assistants commanded a team of dozens of people to operate several separate accounts.

The stock price of microelectronics did not fall continuously, but it soon fell below the 10 yuan mark.

"Boss, our buying operation is over. In this operation, a total of 33.4 million shares of microelectronic equipment were bought, with an average transaction price of 10.33 yuan. ”

When Yu Hongbo ended his buying move, microelectronics finally ushered in a rebound. The strength of the rebound was not small, and the stock price then fluctuated around $12.

There is no way to buy more than 5% of the company's total share capital, and the listed company, the stock exchange and the regulatory authorities must be notified, and an announcement will be issued, which is commonly known as "raising the card".

Bolong Optics' action of raising cards forcibly reversed the tragic decline of microelectronic equipment. However, due to the sharp deterioration of the company's fundamentals, the prospects of Bolong Optics are not optimistic about the market, so there is not enough momentum to rebound to 12 yuan.

"This transaction price is very good! Lao Yu, give your team a few days off, and the bonus will be issued later." ”

During this time, Yu Hongbo and his team have been keeping an eye on microelectronic devices. At the same time, it also constantly put forward various reference opinions for Populus euphratica.

Now that it's done, as is customary, a bonus will be issued,

In this way, Bolong Optics plus the 6.6 million shares previously obtained from small shareholders holds a total of 40 million shares of microelectronic equipment, accounting for 9.57% of the shares.

This ratio is just right, if it exceeds 10% of the shares, it will have to make a second announcement.

"Mr. Hu, congratulations! The shares in your hands plus the shares bought by Bolong Optics in the market this time are almost 29%, can you talk to me about your next step?"

The fact that Bolong Optics raised the brand of microelectronic equipment has caused quite a big response in the industry. Li Qi didn't dare to wait any longer, and went directly to the International Building to find Hu Yang.

"Li Dong, now that it is a bright brand, I just want to acquire microelectronic equipment. You are doing your duty, why don't the major shareholders behind you come forward?"

Now, there is no way to hide it anymore, and Populus Hu simply admits it generously.

He originally thought that Director You or Yang Hu would come to him as soon as possible, but he didn't expect that it would be Li Qi who would be the first to charge.

Li Qi took a sip of coffee, and then said a little helplessly: "Director You doesn't want to clash with you head-on, so he sent me to fight a front." I said, Mr. Hu, it doesn't make much sense for you to do this, how many shares are there in the market? Even if you have 80 million shares in your pocket, you can't control the company. ”

Peak Capital holds a little more than 100 million shares of microelectronic equipment, and Modu State-owned Assets holds 150 million shares of microelectronic equipment, and the combined equity ratio of the two exceeds 50%.

Therefore, Li Qi said that Populus euphratica was doing useless work.

"Oh, not necessarily. The combined shares of Bolong Optics and I have now surpassed the peak capital and ranked second. Who can say what will happen in the future?"

Hu Yang didn't explain, now Yang Hu and the others and Director You are not of the same mind at all, and it is not impossible to break through each other.

Li Qi understood what Hu Yang meant, and couldn't help but be silent for a while.

"Mr. Hu, now that the company is in turmoil, I am really a little overwhelmed, can't you major shareholders unite and tide over this difficulty together?"

To be honest, Li Qi didn't want to do it anymore, he was too tired. External pressure is one thing, and the intrigue of the three major shareholders is another.
