Chapter 526: Those who travel a hundred miles are half ninety

In the face of the threat of "spare tire" thrown by Zhang Zhongmou, Gu Biao talked and laughed freely:

"If Zhang Sheng has doubts about the investment environment in the mainland or the risk of being regulated by the United States, he can stay in Xiangjiang if he wants. And I have to remind you that Wanwan is a capital attention area, where the stock market is very developed.

If you are not afraid of being packaged, you will take two injections of chicken blood in a short period of time, and throw it on the stock market to find a receiver in the morning and twilight, then you can go as well. I am afraid that when the time comes, the tragedy that Your Excellency experienced in Deyi will be repeated again.

With all due respect, you are talking about semiconductor technology and foundry now, which sounds so good, but how many people will really be optimistic about you for a long time for ten years? The current industry resource scheduling habits have not been reversed, because semiconductor foundry is just emerging, and the current giants all have their own factories, why should they look for you foundry?

Your growth can only be expected to rise in the future 'new teams with their own design capabilities' have sprung up, and these people have no technical ability, and must look for you. When these people rise, you can follow the rise, and this is destined to be very protracted, and those short-sighted funds in the stock market can't wait that long. ”

Gu Biao's words can be described as hitting the nail on the head.

That was also an important lobbying argument that he had been working on for months and thinking of well.

Short-sighted investment funds will not be able to sustain the return expectation for so long.

This is to start from scratch and cultivate a new era of resource layout thinking, which is very subtle and long.

Zhang Zhongmou was hit in the soft underbelly, and his mood was shaken for a while, and then he immediately forced himself to calm down, and asked rhetorically: "But Xiangjiang is also a place where financial capital operations are rampant, and the stock market in Hengsheng is more rampant than Wanbei."

IMHO, from what I know about the people here, they only hype up the media and real estate, or play with financial concepts, as for high-tech industrialists...... Hehe, I'm not targeting anyone, I think the so-called technology industrialists here in Xiangjiang are all frogs at the bottom of the well. ”

Gu Biao couldn't help but be a little stunned.

Shouldn't this be a line of "Big Brother"?

It was a coincidence that Zhang Zhongmou, a guy who is not a traverser, said it by chance.

However, his attitude is no problem, and his words and tone are slightly different from "Senior Brother", which is very in line with the context of this situation, so Gu Biao no longer suspects that the other party is also a traverser.

The people of Xiangjiang are indeed too uncompetitive in terms of high-tech industries, which is the concept of financial speculation. The "Yingke Digital", which was said to be very awesome before the collapse of the Internet crisis in the millennium, the concept that Xiao Li Superman engaged in is not just a bunch of bubbles. (Of course, if the two Tengyun shares were not squeezed out when the Yingke Digital squeezed the bubble in the future, maybe the boasting would have come true)

After sorting out his thoughts a little, Gu Biao responded positively: "Uncle Zhang thinks that Xiangjiang's financial capital is too strong and disgusting, so it's easy to solve." We only set up production bases, R&D bases and actual operating companies in Xiangjiang.

As for the holding company that controls the company, it can be set up in the mainland – of course, as a foreign-funded company registered in the mainland. If Uncle Zhang still thinks that this may lead to regulation in the future, we can put another layer of skin on it and put it in any economic entity that you and I can trust each other and does not have a stock exchange market and listing mechanism.

Finally, add some clauses to the articles of association and preparatory agreement, such as within 10 or 15 years, the initiating shareholders shall not seek public listing in any form, or compulsorily not allow the transfer of equity to the outside worldβ€”β€”

Of course, in some countries, the latter clause may not comply with local company laws. Then we can also change it to 'if we want to transfer equity, it must be transferred between internal shareholders and the maximum price must be sealed'.

This blocks the space for the initiating shareholders to use the company's shares to arbitrage and exit within 10 or even 15 years. In short, you can ask a lawyer to sit down and talk about the specific terms, and there is always a way to trust each other. ”

Gu Biao threw out a series of contingency plans that were extremely hostile to the financial capital market and the stock market, which made the other party feel great sincerity.

Zhang Zhongmou did not completely fail to consider the depth of the possible relationship between Gu Biao and the Blackstone Fund, nor did he fail to consider the extent of the role played by the Blackstone Fund in the Texas Instruments Wind Direction Change Incident.

However, Zhang Zhongmou never had enough evidence before, so he couldn't hate Gu Biao, although he had a slight hatred for the Blackstone Fund, but he also knew that the Blackstone Fund was just following the usual ideas of CEO John Charber.

People are shareholders, there is nothing to hate, just profit-seeking. The key is John Shabber's short-sighted guy with bad ideas, and the mechanism that allows the other party to magnify the evil in human nature and fully short-sighted profit-seeking.

If it was half a year ago, or Zhang Zhongmou, who broke up peacefully in another time and space and left Texas Instruments, he would definitely not be persuaded by Gu Ao's sincerity at this moment.

However, the way he left now has made him full of bitter hatred for the financial capital of the stock market.

At this moment, in his eyes, the stock market is the number one mortal enemy of basic scientific and technological innovation - note, it is only the mortal enemy of singing, basic scientific and technological innovation, not the mortal enemy of tinkering and semi-plagiarism "micro-innovation".

For "micro-innovation", the stock market is not only not a mortal enemy, but also a catalyst for its optimization.

As Peter Thiel famously said, "People want flying cars, but Silicon Valley under the control of the stock market only gives people 140 characters".

The stock market is the catalyst for the "140 characters" innovation, and the stock market loves this kind of short and fast story. "Flying cars" are the things that have been murdered by the stock market.

Although Zhang Zhongmou didn't know the aphorisms he would say in the future, he had already figured it out in the two months of painful soul warfare.

If you go to Wanwan, you may not be able to escape the cruelty of the stock market, and one or two companies of Wanwan people will definitely not be able to raise so much money, and the equity structure will be complicated and people's hearts will be even more uneven.

In this case, the simpler the shareholder structure and the more rigidly written the articles of association and investment agreement, the less uncertain there is for those who do not have perseverance, and the less likely it is that traitors and renegades will appear in the middle.

Of course, the cost is that it is easy for the management to have the final say, which affects the company's business decision-making power.

"Give me some time, I'm going to take advantage of the Thanksgiving holiday to take a good look in Xiangjiang. In principle, I accept the kindness of Gu Sheng's invitation. After thinking about it again and again, Zhang Zhongmou decided to leave an opening for cooperation first.

A large investment of hundreds of millions of dollars is possible for investors to decide on a conversation, but for entrepreneurs, it is impossible.

Just like when Sun Zhengyi had a lot of money to burn his bags, he would talk to Ma Feng for five minutes and throw 20 million US dollars to Ahri Baba, but Ma Feng would never accept Sun Zhengyi's money after five minutes of chatting, and he would go back to have a meeting and conspire with Cai Chongxin again.

In this case, it is generally more prudent to receive money than to give money.

Of course, if you are not an entrepreneur who does things sincerely, and you are deceiving people with PPT, then it will be the other way around. That kind of drama must be that the party who gives the money is very cautious and takes the money very refreshingly.

"Yes, this kind of big thing, of course, you have to think about it slowly. Come on, serve. Uncle Zhang took the Thanksgiving holiday to talk about things, how could I not entertain and do my best to be a landlord. ”

Gu Biao smiled and agreed, very tolerant, and ordered the maid to serve the Thanksgiving meal that had already been prepared.

Today is the fourth Saturday of November, and Thanksgiving Day in the United States is the fourth Thursday of November every year, which is the day before yesterday.

THANKSGIVING IS A NICHE HOLIDAY THAT IS ONLY CELEBRATED IN NORTH AMERICAN COUNTRIES, NOT A FESTIVAL WITH THE SURNAME JIAO IN WESTERN COUNTRIES, AND BRITAIN AND FRANCE IN EUROPE. According to the American tradition, the holiday begins on Thursday and lasts until Sunday, and most families only gather for a big meal on Thursday, although a few celebrate until the weekend.

Zhang Zhongmou had not officially left Texas Instruments, so he was usually busy with the handover, and this time he came to see Gu Biao to discuss secretly, and he also took advantage of the company's long holiday on Thanksgiving.

Gu Biao is also a person who has been in the United States for two or three years, and he is still a student of Kissinger, so of course he wants to use this kind of detail to get closer to the other party, and it seems that "we are all people raised in American culture."

Zhang Zhongmou really ate this set, and his vigilance against Gu Biao relaxed a little.

"Gu Sheng is a pure Chinese, do you usually celebrate Thanksgiving?" he asked with a slight suspicion.

"Why, no, I remember that I had a photo of Thanksgiving a few years ago, and Uncle Zhang can take a look if he is interested. ”

Gu Biao snapped his fingers, and then instructed the maid to bring a reprinted photo album. There are holiday photos from 81 to 83 when Gu Biao spent Thanksgiving.

The guests above included a private banquet for friends who invited Ye Kun to spend time with, as well as a reunion of classmates and teachers with other students of Professor Kissinger.

The Thanksgiving food in the photos is extremely rich, and of course today's feast is even more sumptuous. It can be regarded as the ultimate under the tone of American style. (Of course, compared with the Chinese food in Xiangjiang, it is still relatively simple, and Gu Biao's chef has mixed the elements of Xiangjiang cuisine as much as possible)

Even Zhang Zhongmou, who has seen the world, can't help but believe that Gu Biao is really a person who likes the American lifestyle in his bones.

"Gu Sheng really enjoys life, and when he was in the United States, several Chinese had to have a Thanksgiving feast together. Zhang Zhongmou looked at a photo of Gu Biao and Ye Kun the year before last, and couldn't help but laugh slightly self-deprecatingly.

"In my eyes, there are no borders, only the enjoyment of the most refined and upper-class life. Here, a toast. Gu Biao took out the previous year's Lafite and personally poured a glass for the two of them.

"I can see it - I heard that before your kid came to Xiangjiang to talk about business this time, he was making waves in the entertainment industry in the mainland, and he drilled into the pile of women everywhere. Zhang Zhongmou sneered.

He also has intelligence support from the United States. After all, he is a Chinese-American who wants to leave the United States to start a business, and there are always people who give him eye medicine or provide him with all kinds of free consultations.

This is also a characteristic of the times.

However, the nutrients that Zhang Zhongmou drew from those messages were obviously not what the providers behind him wanted him to pay attention to.

Everything Gu Biao did was just for the sake of wealth and personal interests, and he didn't seem to have the slightest national layout.

He is just a scumbag suave man, and he smelled the smell of money and career before he was temporarily alert.

"So what, I'm a refined egoist, and I'll understand it when I get in touch with Uncle Zhang. Gu Biao felt a little complacent, the dirty life of more than a month before he came was really not disguised in vain, at least it made him not seem so scheming.
