Difficulties do not mean that things cannot be promoted, making money is always the first demand, and the merger of the three parties is still continuing to advance, although the progress is slow, but there has been substantial progress. The three companies began to discuss how to work together, rather than whether to cooperate or not.

In order to show sincerity, Da Mo was pulled into the financing of the shell, by the way let IBM participate in it, sometimes patents are not bought if you want to buy, Huaxia enterprises, or companies with Huaxia genes want to buy some sensitive technologies and patents in the United States, always have to pay some unconventional costs, Zhou Shi is barely acceptable, but the value is not easy to estimate, the future long-term patent licensing fee and short-term patent cost in the end which is more cost-effective, I am afraid that the most professional investment banks are also difficult to calculate, inflation, enterprise duration, patent validity, everything needs to be taken into account, adding great difficulty to their work。 The Android system company also cooperated with Guoke to entrust the purchase of some patents.

Soon on March 1, Singapore's Avago officially IPO on the Nasdaq Global Select Sector under the leadership of Chen Fuyang, with a market value of about $4.2 billion. Compared with the previous life, there is not much increase, and compared to Zhou Shi's entry price, it is barely a successful transaction. As for the delay in the IPO until now, the main reason is that Zhou Shi proposed to increase investment during the financial crisis, and took the opportunity to acquire a company called CyOptics that makes optical components at a low price, consolidating Anhuagao's leading position in the field of optical fiber products. It also acquired Javelin and strengthened its presence in the field of wireless communications. In the future of mobile Internet, wireless communication must be the focus, there are some things that Spreadtrum can't do that can't be acquired, if it has important strategic significance, the profit margin is relatively high, Broadcom will do it, to acquire. This is also due to his excellent working relationship with KKR and Silver Lake Capital. After all, they also want to participate in the financing of Zhou Shi's Guoke and other companies, in addition to not giving them board seats, the amount will not be very high, and Zhou Shi doesn't care, let who make money is not earning. In this IPO, KKR and Silver Lake Capital both cashed out, but Galaxy Capital did not. This is also due to the fact that the sources of funds of the two sides are different, and Galaxy Capital is not under much financial pressure now. There is no need to cash out too early, not to mention that Zhou Shi has other thoughts about Anwarao.

In fact, Avago's main business is now the design and development of semiconductors, which are used in optical fiber networks and wireless communication network services, telecommunications equipment, and optical mice. There is not much value, Zhou Shi mainly likes Chen Fuyang, he is very thoughtful and capable, and several big acquisitions in the future are good proof.

"Simon, can't you give us a little more share?" one of KKR's current giants complained to Zhou Shi again.

"You know, I'm not raising money for money, if I were an American, Shell would be a private business. "Zhou Shi doesn't want others to share the benefits, but society is like this, public companies are both restrictions and protections, otherwise a company with such a high profit margin and such a good performance is not coveted, I am afraid that the sons of the plane do not have such treatment, if there is not enough strength, do not toss who you toss. And as a new player, you also need to have deeper contact with various opponents in the market.

"We can help you with more, too!" said KKR boss

"But I didn't need much help. "Zhou Shi

"Well, if you need anything, remember to come to me at any time, maybe there will be an unexpected surprise. "KKR boss

"Of course, we are friends!" Zhou Shi

In other words, KKR is also preparing to go public, it was supposed to be listed in 08, but it did not expect to encounter a financial crisis, and in 09 it acquired a listed exchange fund in Europe to achieve a curve listing, and it was traded on Euronext Amsterdam in the Netherlands. However, those small exchanges naturally do not have the market size and financing channels like the United States, and they have little practical effect. I still want to move to the United States to facilitate financing. During this period, the support of various partners is indispensable, and Galaxy Capital's companies will also participate in this IPO.

The listing of Anwar can be regarded as the beginning of a new era, and Chen Fuyang is now full of ambition and ready to do a big job. He also recognized Zhou Shi's optimism about mobile communications and wireless interconnection, and now he has a goal, taking advantage of this listing, he has the opportunity to communicate with Zhou Shi face-to-face.

"Are you sure you want to buy this company?" Zhou Shi still doesn't know enough about this information, and he doesn't know much about this industry, so it's hard to judge.

"That's right, Atheros is a very good company, his chips in the fields of iFi, Bluetooth, GPS, Ethernet and other fields are widely used by major manufacturers, Netgear, TP-Link, D-Link, Intel and other manufacturers are his customers. "Chen Fuyang has been preparing for this for a long time, the development speed of Atheros is very fast, since its establishment ten years ago, the market scale has been expanding, although it has not yet been listed, but the market value is very amazing.

Zhou Shi is still a little hesitant, although he is optimistic about the development of the iFi chip industry, but he does not have the slightest impression of this company, although he knows that his founder is a doctor and president of Stanford University, but these do not prove anything. However, thinking that the direction of his investment was not to invest in technology, nor to invest in companies but investors, Zhou Shi no longer hesitated and decided to believe Chen Fuyang.

"Well, I support your decision. "Zhou Shi

Chen Fuyang also breathed a sigh of relief, the other two are all engaged in finance, only Zhou Shi has a technical background, if even Zhou Shi does not agree, it will be even more difficult for others to convince.

Zhou Shi's worries are not much necessary, in the history he does not know, Qualcomm in January 2011 can't wait to announce the acquisition of Atheros for $3.1 billion, and although Atheros ranks second in the industry, but it is the most professional supplier, with many patents on iFi and Bluetooth chips, and is also the leader of the new generation of wireless iGig standards. But he thinks of more than this, does Spreadtrum also need it? However, Spreadtrum is not listed, and it is convenient to acquire pure cash, and it may not be able to raise so much cash, besides, Spreadtrum is a Huaxia enterprise, how troublesome it is to acquire an overseas company, and the problem of time and capital has greatly increased the complexity of Huaxia Enterprise's acquisition of overseas assets.

Convince Zhou Shi and the other two parties, not to mention that the board of directors is occupied by these three companies, even the funds for the acquisition need to be provided by KKR, Silver Lake Capital and Galaxy Capital.

"He just convinced me, and now he's here to convince you!" Zhou Shi said helplessly

"If I can convince you, I may have no opinion!" said the KKR boss

"I'm still very convinced of Simon's vision. Silver Lake Capital Glenn Hutchins

"That's not good, I can't afford this responsibility!" Zhou Shi

"Actually, the meaning of I'm fed up with this is very clear, the sales growth rate of Guoke pad is very large, if this year, next year, the market explodes, the demand for iFi management chips will also be greatly improved. "Chen Fuyang

Yes, with an average monthly sales volume of nearly one million, the demand for iFi is likely to explode.
