Chapter 285: Entering the South China Sea Again
Entering Zhongnanhai again, Zhou Shi was still very excited. This is the center of the country, and every thought of the bigwigs may affect thousands of ordinary people. In fact, he can also influence many people, the global users of the friend network have already exceeded 500 million, and may exceed one billion, two billion in the future, can each of his decisions directly affect these people? The answer should be yes.
"There are a few things that I came to you this time, let's talk about them one by one. "The boss of the National Housing
Zhou Shi sat down and listened carefully. There aren't many people here, probably for secrecy.
"There are a lot of unclear development plans for your semiconductor foundry industry, can you elaborate on them?"
"It's still in strict secrecy, and if the information leaks out in advance, our billions of dollars of investment may be in vain for several years. Zhou Shi casually glanced around.
"Don't worry, if there is a leak here, we will compensate you twice as much. The boss of the National Housing House said magnificently.
MMP, am I a person who cares about money? Who knows if it's true, does Zhou Shi dare to ask them for these losses in China?
"The production and operation of Nortel Networks, a world-renowned telecommunications equipment company, is in a predicament, Galaxy Capital has targeted him or their patents, and at the end of last year they have mortgaged all the patents of Nortel Networks to us, and if they go bankrupt within three years, or are unable to pay the patent licensing fees or interest, their patents will become ours. We are very sure that Nortel Networks will go bankrupt in two years. "Zhou Shi
Several bigwigs listened to Zhou Shi's words, and they all felt a chill on their bodies on this hot autumn day, bankrupt, bankrupt again. This guy is not very old, and for his goal, he can bankrupt people at every turn, and his anger is too heavy!
"In addition, IDCC, a NASDAQ-listed company, has a large number of 2.3.4G patents, and their core patents even exceed those of Qualcomm, and we are sure to control this company. If Nortel's network patents and IDCC's patents are combined, we will surpass Qualcomm, Nokia and other telecom equipment companies in communication patents. Moreover, it can allow the mobile phone companies under Galaxy Capital to get rid of patent troubles and participate in global competition. With the cost and efficiency in China, we are confident that the mobile phone company will hit the first group.
In addition, we believe that smart phones are the core of the future mobile Internet era, which will replace the position of feature phones in the market and greatly change people's lifestyles. It can even allow us to overtake in the CPU and operating system fields and get rid of the monopoly of Microsoft and Intel.
That's why we acquired Spreadtrum and invested heavily in strengthening its research capabilities and technology. According to our forecast, the global smartphone sales may not fall below 1 billion units per year in the next decade, and mobile phones will also change from durable goods to fast-moving consumer goods. In other words, the demand for high-performance and low-power mobile chips will expand greatly in the future.
This is the most favorable development opportunity for IC design companies like Spreadtrum and foundry companies like SMIC.
In the smart phone industry chain, there are a lot of chips involved, and if it can occupy one-tenth of the market, SMIC can enter a benign development track.
Galaxy Capital has already bet on the entire industry chain, and we originally planned to buy AMD's spin-off chip manufacturing division, but the local tycoons in Abu Dhabi are one step ahead, so we have turned to Singapore's licensed semiconductors, the world's third-largest foundry. The local tycoons in Abu Dhabi will assist us in acquiring this business. If we can control SMIC, then there can be more talent exchanges between the two foundries in the early stage, and at the same time ensure that the development of technology will not lag behind, and if the country is strong in the later stage, the two companies can merge and achieve transcendence in an instant. Zhou Shi spoke for dozens of minutes in one breath, and his mouth was dry.
"We have already paid more than $5 billion for the layout of this industry, and it may be so much to really develop and grow. Zhou Shi paused for a while and continued
"Where did you get so much money?" said a big guy in surprise
"I made $3 billion in the domestic A-share market in three years. Lu He is abroad, and has been long crude oil, gold and copper all these years. It wasn't until last month that shorting crude oil began. We have been shorting the U.S. subprime mortgage market since late 2006 and the entire U.S. this year. It's a once-in-a-century opportunity, so we're earning a little bit more. Although Zhou Shi didn't show much pride, but thinking of pretending to be forced in front of these bigwigs who control the fate of more than a billion people, the sourness in his heart at this time is simply indescribable.
It's a bit much, although the bigwigs control the flow of tens of trillions of soft girl coins, but that is the wealth of the entire country, and now there is a young man who has not dried up in their eyes to create such a miracle, which makes them embarrassed. So he forcibly resisted asking Zhou Shi how much money they had now. Zhou Shi didn't know how much money he had now, anyway, he was rarely short of money.
"Let's move on to the second thing. The big man of the National Houses said
"Did you buy a lot of Volkswagen shares, and the people from Volkswagen have come to us for feedback. The big guy asked
"Can they confirm it's me?" Zhou Shi wondered
"They don't know who it is, they only know that it's a Huaxia person, and they think it's an official act of Huaxia," the big guy said with a bad face
"Then it's okay, let them make a fuss. Zhou Shi didn't care
"Volkswagen is a very important company in China, can you tell us why you do this?"
"I have only one purpose, and that is to buy Volkswagen" Zhou Shiyu was not shocked
Several bigwigs looked at Zhou Shi, as if they saw a psychopath.
"Volkswagen's market capitalization is now close to 50 billion. "An unfamiliar big guy
"My stake in Volkswagen is close to five percent," Zhou Shi
"That won't buy the public!" a guy who doesn't know the big guy
According to what we have learned, Porsche's desire to buy Volkswagen is very strong. "Zhou Shi
"Oh!" everyone suddenly realized.
"I can cooperate with the actions of certain companies to a limited extent without harming my own interests. Zhou Shi said this meaningfully.
Although it is not clear how much of Volkswagen Porsche currently owns, it is unlikely that they will bypass Zhou Shi to buy Volkswagen in any case. You must know that the Saxony government holds 20.1 percent of the shares of Volkswagen, and Zhou Shi holds about 5 percent of the shares and options, and if they want to buy Volkswagen, they will ask for at least 75 percent of the shares, even if they buy all the shares in the market!
Without enough strength, Zhou Shi can also make a little money, and with enough strength, Zhou Shi or others can get more.
