Chapter 488: Success
Even if Liu Ruoyi persuaded Lao Li from the overall situation, but in terms of specific matters, she had to agree to wipe Xiao Li's ass and come forward to clean up the already chicken feathers of the PCCW.
At its peak, PCCW, which had a market value of 580 billion Hong Kong dollars, has now shrunk to less than 20 billion Hong Kong dollars, and it is still alive and cannot find the direction of development.
On top of that, the Li family is controversial because of this.
Fortunately, the PCCW of chicken feathers is no longer the king of negative equity riddled with huge debts, but has finally climbed to real positive assets.
Liu Ruoyi briefly studied the current PCCW business, which is simply lackluster, real estate and fixed telecommunications services are still profitable, but the mobile services that have been re-entered are basically the most marginalized mobile service providers in Xiangjiang.
It can be said that there is no way to save it.
However, for Liu Ruoyi, this is not too much of a problem, the most important thing is close to being solved, and now Zhang Rujin convinces the mainland partners to agree to open another wafer processing factory in Xiangjiang that is ready to go to the top process in the future, share intellectual property rights and brand the logo of Zhongxin International, to ensure that the future will be unimpeded in the mainland.
Liu Ruoyi couldn't intervene in this matter, so she could only wait for Zhang Rujin's roundabout.
However, this incident was somewhat unexpected by Liu Ruoyi, and a week later, Zhang Rujin returned to Xiangjiang with a lonely face.
Not only are there opposition voices among shareholders, but also the local government in Gimhae is even more opposed, they are unwilling to add another competitor (in their eyes, this is completely a cultivated competitor), and they use Zhang Rujin's original promise to carry out moral kidnapping.
This attitude was exhausting.
"Annie, I'm afraid I'm going to live up to your good intentions, I didn't expect things to be so complicated. Mr. Zhang said lonely.
"I'm afraid this can't go on. ”
Looking at this old man who was still excited when he left, as if he was about to charge, Liu Ruoyi's original intention of breaking up immediately faded a lot.
From an investment point of view, this is Liu Ruoyi's most uncertain investment so far, and it is also a huge investment that does not require much return, and the same money is put into the financial market, Liu Ruoyi believes that it is possible to become 300 billion US dollars in the next ten years.
She can invest in the new generation of Internet companies that have already emerged and have not yet been properly valued, or she can use her familiarity with the future world financial market to carry out speculation of selling high and buying low.
is the only one who fights in this completely unfamiliar industry, except for some ideas and some money, Liu Ruoyi can't even point out the direction of technological development for them.
In her past and present lives, after all, she studied finance and played finance.
It's just that...
Looking at Zhang Rujin's lonely face, Liu Ruoyi knew that if it weren't for her intervention, I was afraid that the time for this person to leave the front line of this industry would have entered the countdown.
Internal and external troubles, shareholders do not work together, this kind of broken ship is really a huge torture for the captain.
Liu Ruoyi's head was running as fast as electricity, and finally, she grabbed a small opportunity.
After discussing with Zhang Rujin like this, Mr. Zhang looked at Liu Ruoyi in surprise, "Is this possible?"
"I don't know, but I know it's not bad for us, maybe it works. ”
"Then I'll try?" Zhang Rujin said unwillingly, if this matter is stopped, he is the most depressed person among them.
I obviously saw a new road to the goal, wider and easier to walk, but it was hung up on it and forbade traffic, this thing really can't bear it!
Zhang Rujin followed Liu Ruoyi's method to meet with the high-level of Xiangjiang again, and after the two of them left the staff and discussed secretly for nearly 2 hours, the high-level of Xiangjiang flew to the capital.
Then he went to Gimhae, I don't know how he operated, and when Zhang Rujin returned to Gimhae's office again, the secretary told him that Gimhae's senior management wanted to meet him.
Then Zhang Rujin was stunned and was notified, and Jin Hai was relieved.
Xiangjiang can establish a new factory of Zhongxin International, but the condition is that the orders that can be produced by the factory in Jinhai shall not be transferred to Xiangjiang for production!
In this way, the problem of internal competition between the two places will be solved.
In other words, the things in Jinhai's rice bowl, Xiangjiang can't be moved at all, not only now, but also in the future.
But for Zhang Rujin, he was overjoyed to be allowed. For this requirement, there is no problem at all from his point of view, according to Liu Ruoyi's plan, what is established in Xiangjiang is a top-level process factory, which is simply an order that Jinhai can't do if he wants to.
With this result, Liu Ruoyi began a substantive operation, and the Australian iron ore cash funds, which were originally intended to be used for venture capital, are now redirected to chip processing.
In response to the transformation of PCCW, Liu Ruoyi simply prepared to let him make a complete transformation, and let the Li family cooperate with a private placement of 1 billion US dollars, Liu Ruoyi's investment company got a relative controlling stake of nearly 35%, and then transformed the board of directors, personally served as the chairman of PCCW, and announced that PCCW would enter the semiconductor processing industry.
With the land and the funds obtained from the additional issuance, 500 million US dollars will be allocated to invest in a wafer processing plant, and the land in the original Cyberport plan will be used as the site of the wafer processing factory, and participate in the latest process 12-inch wafer processing factory plan, which is currently claimed to be 50 billion Hong Kong dollars.
Immediately, the high-level publicity of Heung Kong supports this plan, and calculates that the publicity will add more than 30,000 jobs to Hong Kong in the future, and the Hong Kong government will provide support for this project to the best of its ability!
Immediately afterwards, Zhang Rujin announced the establishment of Zhongxin International (Xiangjiang) Co., Ltd. in Xiangjiang, with a registered capital of 60 billion Hong Kong dollars!
This series of dazzling operations has caused an uproar in Hong Kong and abroad.
Some of the PCCW shareholders were jubilant and finally had hope after seeing the slow bearish journey, but some shareholders were still insensitive, believing that this was just another game of concept.
In any case, Liu Ruoyi, the financial queen, is more sought after by the market than the original financial prodigy Xiao Li, waiting for the suspension to end the funds to start trading, and instantly raised the stock price of PCCW by two percent!
This brought tears to the eyes of the old shareholders of PCCW, and it was like the New Year to quickly sell their stocks and cash out and leave!
According to the prior disk protection plan, Liu Ruoyi's funds were fully collected, and the market finally stopped the fire sale and began to enter the first time after the shares were finally increased to about 40%.
What is even more unexpected is that the four major families of Heung Kong have expressed their support for the relaunch of the Cyberport plan and will directly invest in Cyberport's first wafer processing plant project, although their contribution is only US$500 million at most, but this attitude has made the market look sideways.
Even Liu Ruoyi didn't expect this change, I don't know if it was her overall situation that day that made Lao Li Wanran wake up, or if there was some other reason that made the four families have the ambition to promote this matter together.
As soon as the news came out, PCCW rose again, and in just a few days, PCCW issued $1 billion in new shares from a market value of less than 20 billion, and immediately rose to a market value of nearly 40 billion.
For PCCW veteran stockholders, all this seems like yesterday, the first wave of missold stockholders have regretted it, and the subsequent rising trading volume began to shrink sharply and was reluctant to sell.
Seeing that the situation was under control, Liu Ruoyi didn't care about the short-term ups and downs of the stock market, and was invited to become the chief strategy officer of Zhongxin International (Xiangjiang) Co., Ltd. The first direction specified for the company is mobile chip processing, she doesn't understand anything else, but Liu Ruoyi will never be wrong about the general trend of mobile chips.
Therefore, after Zhang Rujin had a deep talk with Liu Ruoyi, he also cautiously agreed with Liu Ruoyi's judgment, and in terms of the equipment and process of the construction of the Xiangjiang factory, he mainly aimed at the Qualcomm chip plan, the current leader of mobile chips.
The current Qualcomm is not the same as the future, whether it is the status or influence of the rivers and lakes, compared to the graphics card chip and CPU chip, the gap is still relatively obvious, although it has begun to show the dominance of mobile chips, but the number and amount of mobile chips are much worse.
So in TSMC's sequence at the moment, Qualcomm is still only a second-class customer.
In Zhang Rujin's heart, he may not particularly believe that mobile chips will be one of the mainstream of the market in the future, but there are not many customers left for him to choose, and CPU and graphics card customers obviously don't have to think about it for the time being, and the Xiangjiang factory is still in the preliminary plan.
However, Zhang Rujin, who has sufficient financial security, is now very sure that this factory will be built within two years, there is no shortage of funds and technology, and equipment procurement will no longer be restricted, and what can affect him in the future is talent!
However, after negotiating the cooperation plan of Jinhai, Zhang Rujin can freely transfer the personnel of both sides to tackle key problems, and at the same time, the personnel recruitment plan of Xiangjiang Company has also begun.
Liu Ruoyi gave 15% of the management equity, Zhang Rujin really listened, and after registering Dexin Technology Investment Company in the Cayman Islands, Zhang Rujin began to conditionally grant the company's equity to the core members of his team.
Of course, by the way, let these people "accidentally" spread the information, and soon, UMC, TSMC, Licensed Semiconductors... and other chip foundry technical backbones began to inquire about specific details.
When they inquired about the option pool of up to 10 billion Hong Kong dollars, many of these backbones were red-eyed!
Although I know that this 10 billion is still a pie hanging in the air, with Zhang Rujin's reputation, as long as these shares exist, they will fall on the brothers sooner or later.
I can't bear it, especially the second-rate manufacturers such as special effects semiconductors and UMC Lianxing, who have little chance of rising and average income, secretly call friends to find the leader in Zhongxin International.
You must know that Zhang Rujin brought a lot of people from these companies into Jinhai Zhongxin International, so he didn't wait for the recruitment advertisement to hang out.
More than 300 people have been recommended internally!
All of them are high-level technical engineering personnel.
Zhang Rujin saw that the list was all backbone post talents, and gritted his teeth, the dead friends are not dead and poor, and they accepted it!
As for saying that these friends may jump their feet, they can't care so much now, anyway, after this side secretly agrees to accept it, they can start to resign under various names.
After half a year and a year, these people appear in Xiangjiang again, and it has nothing to do with Zhang Rujin, these have resigned for so long, how do I know what's going on?
Because there is no civil construction in the factory now, and the equipment is still in the bidding and procurement process, it is useless for these people to come, so they simply promised to give half a year's salary subsidy to the future entry and lock in the talents in advance.
Only in this way can Zhang Rujin have the confidence to build a new 12-inch wafer processing plant with the latest process in about two years.
With such a group of talent reserves, Xiangjiang Zhongxin International officially put out recruitment advertisements and began to recruit talents according to their positions.
Borrowing the talent echelon of Jinhai, Zhang Rujin put up the shelf in less than a month, issued the first purchase order, and signed the construction contract of the first phase of the factory with the construction company!
If it runs efficiently, it is completely supported by Zhang Rujin's superhuman energy and sense of responsibility, because he feels that this may be the last chance in his life to catch up with competitors.
So Zhang Rujin is simply burning himself as hard.
The senior management of Xiangjiang had nothing to say about support, and especially agreed to the request of the mainland construction company to come across the river, because they could realize the construction in two shifts and shorten the construction period of the factory to half a year!
None of the construction teams in Heung Kong could make such a promise.
In order to settle this matter, the Li family made a special sacrifice and secretly negotiated to provide new job opportunities for the Xiangjiang construction team.
Liu Ruoyi took over the mess of PCCW and immediately saw improvement, although the business is still the same, but the hostile attitude of shareholders towards the Li family has greatly improved, obviously even if the PCCW repeats itself again in the future, Liu Ruoyi will attract hatred for the Li family.
Of course, Liu Ruoyi will not sit idly by, and after spending a while to sort out the PCCW business, she finally found the main direction of attack.
According to PCCW's strong business, it is the current telecom business, which is dominated by broadband and fixed telephones, but at present, this market has been carved up and there will be no new growth points.
All that's left is for the price war between the existing service providers.
And PCCW's mobile business is simply not to be mentioned, so weak that there is simply no voice.
But now Liu Ruoyi sees an opportunity in it, because after careful research, Liu Ruoyi found that iTV (interactive TV) has developed at present.
The pay-per-view movie channel, which had been finding an opportunity, suddenly combined with this ITV in Liu Ruoyi's brain!
made Liu Ruoyi suddenly enlightened, originally thought it was a burden of the scencing, but now his thinking has changed, and he has become Liu Ruoyi's treasure in an instant.
Others can't think of it, but how could Liu Ruoyi not think of the triple play super magic weapon sent by Telecom in the future!
And Liu Ruoyi is stronger than Telecom, she even has a ready-made platform support on the content side!
When consulting legal experts is not restricted in Xiangjiang, Liu Ruoyi made the set-top box project of Yishi Technology quickly transform into an iTV set-top box, and there are not too many new things in terms of technology, and Yishi Technology completed the prototype verification and entered mass production in less than two months!
The integration and transformation of the telecom side is relatively difficult, but according to the contractor, the transformation of the three-in-one authentication and billing system will be opened up in half a year at the latest.
Aurora Media's digital TV system has also begun to be implemented in full swing, and at most in the fall, PCCW and Aurora Media can jointly launch a new shocking business.
There is no doubt that it will be invincible in this era.
In order to raise funds for the promotion of this business, Liu Ruoyi once again launched a financing plan, this time through a public additional offering to all shareholders.
However, in the announcement, it was specifically pointed out that if all the additional shares are not subscribed by shareholders, they will be fully underwritten by Liu Ruoyi's investment fund.
The average price of the additional issue shall be subject to the average price of the closing price of the previous 20 trading days.
This additional issuance announcement made the old shareholders smell a familiar smell, so that most of the newly issued shares fell into Liu Ruoyi's underwriting fund, so that Liu Ruoyi's shareholding increased to more than 55%.
In the face of investors' doubts, Liu Ruoyi did not explain too much, but proposed that a new business will be launched in the future to inject new impetus into PCCW's revenue, and the development space will be very broad.
However, this additional issuance, the market responded with silence, and the stock price neither plummeted nor skyrocketed, as if nothing had happened.
