Chapter 822 Layout
Wang Legend was sent to study abroad in 45 years, at that time the Chinese were discriminated against and looked down upon everywhere, and the experience of applying for a job in IBM stimulated Wang Legend's self-esteem, and the ridicule and low regard he suffered became the driving force for him to work hard.
Soon, his series of inventions made him very famous, and at this time IBM came out again and bought Wang Legend's magnetic stripe storage patent in an oppressive way, and the patent worth three million only gave him 500,000 yuan.
Wang Legend used the 500,000 yuan to start a computer company and realize his dream, and in the end, he defeated IBM in technology, and his PS system became his loyal customers all over the United States and even the world, from the president to the common people, and he built many factories around the world.
But how to say it, success is also Xiao He is also Xiao Xiao, hostility to IBM made him choose to go on the road alone, he refused to produce computers and IBM integration, but in Bald Eagle, IBM is an omnipresent giant.
In 86, because of physical reasons, he insisted on handing over the company to his son despite the opposition of the elders and shareholders, and then Comrade Wang Lie lived up to expectations, and strange tricks were frequent, and by 89 the company had entered a state of loss from an annual profit of three billion US dollars, and the stock fell from 43 US dollars to 7 cents.
Although Wang Legend finally realized his mistake in 89 and asked Wang Lie to resign and hire Edward as the general manager, the new president is a little bit able but ignorant of computers, he is a good hand in finance, and a series of means such as laying off employees, reducing burdens, and transferring debts, which reluctantly made Wang An's company slow down.
At its peak, Wang An, which had nearly 50,000 employees and a market value of nearly $6 billion, has shrunk to more than 10,000 employees and a market value of more than 500 million. A large part of these assets, including the factory in Wanwan (now TSMC), were sold by Edward, but fortunately, the main assets were taken over by the acquisition team.
Richard said: "Your Excellency, I apologize very much for disturbing your rest, just now there was news from the hospital that Wang Legend has passed away. ”
Zhang Xingming slowly put down the information documents in his hand and sat up straight. He couldn't remember when Wang Legend died, but he vaguely remembered that it was 90 years, but he didn't expect to meet this legendary figure in time. After sorting out his thoughts, Zhang Xingming asked: "How is the acquisition of stocks and the contact of key personnel?"
Richard said: "The acquisition of loose shares in the market has been going on, so far we have bought 81 percent of the outstanding shares, and the acquisition of minority shareholders is also very smooth, Wang Legend is a person who likes to monopolize power, and he controls the equity in this regard, and now nearly seventy-three shares of the entire company are held by Wang Lie, and his younger brother has only inherited a communication company." ”
Zhang Xingming nodded, thought for a while and asked, "Has Chambers been in contact with this person?"
Richard said, "Yes, there is an arrangement for this at the headquarters, and all the records of this person are here. ”
Zhang Xingming glanced at the document, what he wanted was this person, and the information had no meaning. He said, "Okay, I'll take a look at it here." I'm going to meet Wang Lie and Chambers tomorrow, can you arrange that?"
Richard spread his hands and said, "BOSS, Mr. Wang Legend has just passed away today, and I think it may not be a good time these days." ”
Zhang Xingming thought for a while and said, "Arrange for me to attend the memorial ceremony of Mr. Wang Legend." ”
Richard stood up and made a chest salute and went out, Zhang Xingming leaned on the back of the sofa and sighed, this luck, he just arrived there and there was no one. Turning his head to Li Chun, he said, "Contact Shami's people." Hopefully, I won't need it. ”
Li Chun nodded. Wang Honghua said: "If you look at the information, this company will not work, this is going to be finished, is it worth spending so much effort?"
Zhang Xingming said: "The business stuff doesn't tell the whole story, the foundation is there, and there is the scale, you are the No. 1 computer company in the United States? Moreover, although the bald eagle said that the sky is rotten, it is actually the most exclusive and exclusive country in the world, and we can save a lot of effort after taking Wang An's company. Computers. ”
The phone rang in the room, Su Yan picked it up and hung up after a few words, and said to Zhang Xingming: "Wang Legend's memorial ceremony is the day after tomorrow, and Richard has asked Chambers to come to the hotel tomorrow." ”
Zhang Xingming nodded, suddenly remembered something, picked up the phone and dialed Xi Shuhui.
"Sister Shu Hui, what is the current situation of those companies at Stanford?"
"Where did you go?"
"Well, I just arrived today, and I thought I'd ask you to see how to integrate it. ”
"Wait. The Sik company you mentioned was bought, it's a small company that only provides a little electronic equipment for the university, and has an annual turnover of less than six million dollars, so I really don't know what you like about him. I'll flip it over. It cost 20 million dollars, and now we have 95 percent, and Morich has 5 percent. The pair of teachers sold their shares and went on a trip.
The company is okay, but IBM and Fruit ended his cooperation contract, the prospect is not easy to evaluate, and I don't know much about computers. Now we have a stake in Micro Yuan Forty-two. This company has been a public company since '86, and in fact all of our forty-two except for Paul's fifteen were absorbed from the stock market. The lid accounts for forty-five, and the state government accounts for ten percent. ”
"Well, better than I thought. There won't be a problem with the shareholder, right?"
"No, more than a dozen investment companies cross. ”
"What about the fruit company?"
"Alas. Xi Shuhui sighed and said: "Maybe I can't keep up with you, I really don't know too little about computer electronics, and I can't make a correct judgment on related companies." In my opinion, this fruit company is useless, completely relying on the money of shareholders to lose, and the operation is extremely strange, and the successive leaders are so incomprehensible. ”
Zhang Xingming laughed and said: "Your judgment is correct, the reason why I am optimistic about this company is actually that I am optimistic about its promoter, and I am not in the company now." We don't need to understand what to do, do we have to understand what to do? Judging the future of a company is not necessarily based on technology, right? What is the current situation on his side?"
Xi Shuhui said: "So far, we have acquired less than 30 people, and there is really no motivation. ”
Zhang Xingming said: "Okay, then this is it, no matter what he is, just put the stock there." Next, I'm going to buy Wang An, and then integrate Wang An with SiK, with Moritas still as president and Chambers as vice president of operations after the integration. ”
Xi Shuhui asked: "Who is the main one?"
Zhang Xingming said: "Let Lao Mo and Lao Qian discuss this matter, it's all important." By the way, what happened to those semiconductor companies?"
Xi Shuhui said: "Except for the Japanese one, there is no controlling stake, and it will take some time." ”
Zhang Xingming said: "Okay, you can watch it, you can discuss this matter with Godfather Liu, he is more professional than us in this regard." ”
