Chapter 1116: The American consortium strikes again

Li Guangyu was unwilling to let the Li consortium be a vassal of the American consortium, and the United States would naturally not let him develop with peace of mind.

They have already got the construction land in the morning of October, and the specific construction problems can be planned slowly, this time the three major groups got 60 hectares of construction land from the Lisboa government, which is enough for the development of their major groups in Lisboa.

You know, in a few days, the 20-hectare limit at Lisboa will come into effect, and it will be impossible for him to get land like this in the future.

It's a pity that his happy mood didn't last long, and as soon as he arrived at the office on the 11th, Gan Qin reported to him: "Li Sheng, there is news from the United States, the U.S. government defines our Phoenix operating system as an insecure product, and government units prohibit the use and installation of our operating system, and at the same time advise the American people not to use our system as much as possible to avoid information and privacy being leaked." ”

The United States is now the largest computer market, and the introduction of this policy of the US government has a very great impact on the Phoenix Group, which not only affects the US market, but also affects the market in other regions if it is ignored.

In the face of this rogue approach of the United States, Li Guangyu has not much to do, and now he can only try his best to seize the market in other regions and suppress Microsoft in the US market as much as possible.

Li Guangyu knows very well that in the future, for the sake of their own domestic interests, there will be many such things, and in the future, the European Union, Japan, South Korea, etc., will follow the example and suppress some foreign products, the difference is that they are not as hegemonic as the United States.

Li Guangyu asked: "What is the opinion of the Phoenix Group, and do they have a specific response plan?"

"Mr. Li, Miss He is holding a high-level meeting, and a press conference will be held to refute the views of the relevant departments in the United States, and I believe that many other governments are more willing to use our operating system than Microsoft, after all, Microsoft is behind the U.S. government, and because we are located in Xiangjiang, countries will be more at ease. ”

Li Guangyu knows very well that the United States does not like to do things according to the rules, and in his previous life, many companies were dismembered by them, and if everything threatens their enterprises, the US government and the consortium behind it will try their best to eliminate the danger.

Phoenix has clearly been seen as a threat by the U.S. government and consortiums, and the January patent lawsuit is still unfinished, with Phoenix, Microsoft, Apple, and Xerox becoming some of the most talked about companies around the world.

Microsoft sues Phoenix, Apple sues Microsoft and Phoenix, Xerox sues Microsoft and Apple, and the U.S. government seems to be deliberately dragging this lawsuit on, not wanting Apple and Microsoft to be positioned as plagiarists, and they don't want Microsoft to be sanctioned and increase the negative impact of their companies.

Once Microsoft is determined to infringe Xerox's graphical interface patent rights, Microsoft will be claimed by Xerox for a large amount of patent fees, knowing that Xerox's side of the Lee consortium is one of the major shareholders, so they don't want to be cheap Lee Consortium.

Moreover, this will also damage the reputation of Microsoft and Apple, and put the two companies at a disadvantage in the competition with the Phoenix Group, which the US government and the consortium behind it absolutely do not want.

Now the Federal Security Service has jumped out again, saying that the Phoenix OS threatens their security, and has begun to restrict the Phoenix OS from seizing the US market.

Li Guangyu knows why this is the case, from January 1 Phoenix operating system officially listed, in the first three months, the Phoenix operating system due to the fairly low price and the strength comparable to the current Microsoft operating system, so that the Phoenix operating system in a short period of time occupied 13% of the market in the United States operating system market.

Now that many forces in the United States can no longer sit still, if they continue to develop like this, I am afraid that in less than two years, the Phoenix operating system will be able to compete with Microsoft in the American market.

The US Government's move this time is to suppress the momentum of the Phoenix Group, and it is not ruled out that the Phoenix operating system will be banned in the United States in the future.

What Li Guangyu didn't know was that the US Department of Commerce planned to conduct an anti-dumping investigation against the Phoenix Group and was preparing to increase tariffs on the Phoenix operating system to prevent the Phoenix Group from competing in the market at low prices.

While Lee Guang-woo was busy dealing with the US government's crackdown, in Seattle, Microsoft's top executives were attending a cocktail party hosted by several of Microsoft's founders.

In the past few months, in the face of the increasingly powerful Phoenix Group, they have been under great pressure, their company is not as strong as the Phoenix Group, and they are not as strong as the Phoenix Group, and they don't even dare to have a price war with the Phoenix Group.

After coming out of the Phoenix operating system, the market value of their company has been in a downward state for three consecutive months, and compared with last year, the market value has dropped by nearly 500 million US dollars, which has hit them quite hard.

You must know that since the listing in March last year, Microsoft's market value has soared from more than $1.25 billion on the first day of listing to $2.6 billion at the end of last year.

As a result, their market value not only did not rise as quickly as they expected, but began to decline slowly, and if it weren't for last year's good performance, the company's market value in the stock market would have been even worse.

Today their company finally came out of the haze of the past few months, and after the FBI released a press conference this morning, their company's stock price immediately won a big gain, although the market value has not returned to the level at the end of last year, but it is a good start.

They believe that with the passage of time, Microsoft's market value will definitely soar rapidly, and now the Internet industry is developing faster and faster, and the market value of their industry will soar rapidly, and he believes that in less than two years, the market value of his company will be able to exceed 10 billion.

Not to mention the outside market, at least in the United States, they can dominate, and they are the largest market in the world.

What makes them most unhappy is that the Phoenix Group, a subsidiary of the Li consortium, is on the same page as them, and its Tianyu Investment Company is one of their major shareholders, and they have no good way to deal with it.

Although they all know very well in their hearts that the Jade Bird Fund, which holds 12% of their company's shares, is Tianyu Investment Company, and Tianyu Investment Company and Phoenix Group are both Li Guangyu's, but on the surface, Jade Bird Fund and Tianyu Investment Company have nothing to do with each other, let alone Phoenix Group.

They just want to kick the representative of the Jade Bird Fund out of the board of directors, but there is no way, just like Apple, which also wants to kick out the representative of Tianyu Investment Company, but now it has not been successful.

As far as he knows, the Lee consortium also holds shares in Oracle, Cisco, Intel, and other companies, and they are all among the major shareholders of these companies, especially Cisco, which is said to occupy more than one-third of the company's shares, and is now the second largest shareholder of the company, after the company's founders and his wife.

Even if some of the consortium investors behind these companies hope to kick the Lee consortium out of Silicon Valley, Tianyu Investment has been rooted here for a long time, and it is difficult to realize such a plan at present.
