Chapter 929: Speculation
The elegantly patterned wooden door was pushed open from the inside, and Atletico walked out first, walking calmly and briskly.
Behind him, two slender figures, one red and one blue, walked out, but Pan Yao and Zhu Lingling were wearing water red and royal blue uniforms and skirts.
After the two white-collar beauties, Wei Huailiang of Bee Mobile, Xu Zhong of Bee Games, and Zeng Xuenong of Bee Network came out, and these three, together with Pan Yao of Bee Mirage, are known as the "four generals" of Atletico Madrid, helping him firmly control the board of directors and the entire group.
Behind a few people, three middle-aged and elderly men walked out of the conference room, their leather shoes were shiny, their ties were smooth, and their hand-made suits perfectly covered their belly, and the smell of business elites and successful people came to their faces. However, at this moment, they were depressed, bowing their heads and walking quickly, obviously the meeting that had just ended made them a little disappointed and sad.
When they were all gone, a gray-haired man in a placket walked out slowly in old cloth shoes, with a calm expression on his face, which looked like the presence of soy sauce.
These people are the directors of the Bee Group.
Atletico Madrid firmly holds the majority stake and most of the voting rights of Bee Group through Jiajing Holdings, he and Tang Jiayi occupy two board seats, and bring in Zhu Wei, Xu Zengpan and other cronies, leaving only three seats for external shareholders, plus an independent non-executive director served by a social elite, forming the 11-member board of directors of Bee.
Outside investors only have three votes, and if they want to get a majority of the votes, they have to win over the INEDs and two Atletico Madrid cronies at the same time, or encourage three cronies to turn against the water, which is difficult to do either way. If you want your proposal to be approved, it is more reliable to use your mouth and engage in persuasion and education.
Of course, this road is also not easy to follow. Just now, Atletico Madrid rejected a director's proposal to transform Bee Green and open up a bike-sharing business.
Now that shared bicycles are particularly popular, they are faintly regarded as the next "outlet", and funds from all walks of life are drilling into this field, and new players will enter the market every once in a while. Everyone voted, but the bees were indifferent, and they were also a little anxious.
"Hey, these people are really, the company's performance is so good, isn't it good to wait for dividends with peace of mind? What kind of bicycle are you tossing?" In the conference room, Lin Jiwu looked left and right, and saw that the shareholders and supervisors had left, so he came to Lin Chen and whispered.
Seeing the latter look at him, he added: "How good is it to sell chips like this now, why do the directors have to go through the troubled waters of bicycles?"
As employee representatives, they were sent by the Bee Supervisory Board to sit on the board of directors and witnessed the whole process.
The highest authority of the company is the general meeting of shareholders, under which the board of directors is the decision-making body, the supervisory board is the supervisory body, and the management body is the managerial level, that is, the president, the cEo and the chief xx officers, and their subordinates.
According to the law, supervisors are non-position shareholders and employee representatives, and the specific proportion is stipulated in the company's articles of association, but employees account for at least one-third. These people are either small shareholders or ordinary employees, or both, seeing the company's normal operation and performance to a new high, knowing that their dividends and bonuses are guaranteed, everyone is naturally satisfied, and more and more people are not pleasing to the eye.
Lin Chen stood up and walked out while packing up his things, and said casually: "People are ambitious when they think so, if they don't do anything and honestly receive dividends, what is the difference between them and pension funds?
"If the green bank switches to bike-sharing, it will definitely accept external investment, so that the capital behind them can get more involved and further expand its influence in the bee system. If the new business develops well, the green bank may also go public and cash out, and their shares can be cashed out at a high level, which is higher than earning dividends honestly. ”
However, this is only an ideal situation, the bike-sharing industry is still in the stage of staking and burning money for the market, and then it will enter the cruel elimination stage, and the laggards are either eliminated or merged, and no one can be sure that they will be able to hold on to the end.
Thinking of this, Lin Jiwu couldn't help but sigh: "In the final analysis, people are too greedy!"
Hearing him say this, Lin Chen sighed: "Hey! I only regret that I wasn't greedy enough!"
The greed he said was naturally not embezzlement and bribery to dig into the company's corners, and even if he wanted to, the third department of the shadow auxiliary development where he was located really didn't have much oil and water to make money.
"Now I know that I regret it? I told you to invest more before, but it was all kinds of shirks, and now I know that I regret it, right?" Lin Jiwu joked with a smile.
After several years of development, Bee's virtual stock system has gradually improved and become more complex, with more VAM and investment elements, which can not only invest in this sector to share risks, but also invest in other sectors to eat meat. The company formulates the upper limit of the investment amount according to the position level and contribution, and the specific amount of investment is determined by the employees.
"Alas," Lin Chen sighed, "I can't help it, my wife was pregnant during that time, I have to prepare some living money in my hand, if there is an accident, the hospital will not give me time to raise money." ”
"If you don't have the money to go to the operating table, how can any hospital dare to do this now?
"Just in case, if something really happens, my family will be ruined," Lin Chen shook his head in annoyance, looking quite miserable.
This is actually his excuse, the real situation is that he took most of the cash to buy financial products, he is short of cash on hand, and he has no courage to borrow money to invest, so he can only watch.
Like Lin Jiwu, if he smashes all his net worth on the company's project, if it becomes a good thing, it will be crooked, but if something is not harmonious, the project fails, but he is also facing the risk of blood loss and death.
Not wanting to continue this topic, Lin Chen changed his smile and looked at the other party, "By the way, Brother Xiaowu, do you have any plans for vacation or business trip recently?"
The latter shook his head, "No, we are busy working on the development of 'Crazy 4', and we don't have time to take a long vacation, why do you think of asking this?"
"It's nothing, my daughter's 100-day banquet is coming, let me know in advance, and prepare a share of money for me!"
"This is natural," Lin Jiwu agreed, "Speaking of which, I am also unlucky, most of my classmates and friends are in other cities, and as a result, they have paid a lot of money, but they rarely have a wedding banquet." People can still remember me, and it's good to have the heart to send a candy gift box. This time I must eat enough, don't dislike it when the time comes!"
"Even if you eat, as long as you don't waste it, even if you stick to the wall in the end, I don't have a problem?," quipping the other party, Lin Chen couldn't help but persuade him: "But I said Xiao Wu, it's time for you to think about marriage, after all, you're almost 30!"
"Yes!" Lin Jiwu nodded, and then gritted his teeth fiercely: "In the past few years, you have not been robbed of money, and it's time to double it." ”
"Haha! You have finally enlightened? Tell me, do you plan to look for it in the company this time, or do you want to look for it outside? If you are outside, I can ask your sister-in-law to help you introduce a few girls, there are many girls of the right age to be married, and there is no problem with their appearance and character. ”
"Don't worry, I'll see after a while, the most urgent task now is to get 'Crazy 4' out as soon as possible. ”
Each generation of "Crazy Football" has changed a lot, the latest generation has added "Wild Ball" and "Open Map" elements, the scene has been expanded more than ten times, and the content has also increased a lot, from a pure football game to an action RPG with football characteristics, the change is not small.
Fortunately, Bee Game has rich experience in building open worlds and building action games, and with the help of seconded veteran drivers, Blue Fireball has successfully completed the construction of the alpha version, and is currently busy catching bugs and debugging, striving to complete the launch in time for next spring.
Thinking of the limited information of this game, Lin Chen shook his head and sighed: "Your brains are also powerful, cutting off your children's legs, tearing your clothes and eagle claw hands, violent iron head skills, breaking doors with heavy artillery, and dribbling balls on the roof, it's very touching to think about it." Why did you suddenly remember to take the martial arts route?"
"There's no way, FIFA, Live, CM, and FM have finished the orthodox route, so we can only go sideways and play sideways. Besides, the performance of the next-generation host is so powerful, it is really a waste not to make a big scene. ”
"yes," Lin Chen nodded, "The company is really interested in the console department, and it is willing to use the most advanced technology to manufacture game processors, and there is no one in the world." ”
"In fact, it is not as exaggerated as it seems, the structure of ARm is simpler than x86, and the design and manufacturing cost is lower, so it is still very cost-effective to spend a little more money in exchange for the leading third-generation process. And ......" Lin Jiwu dragged out his voice.
"And what?" Lin Chen really hit the plan, and hurriedly asked.
The former did not answer, but stretched out his hand to the side.
If you look in the direction of your finger, you will see a glittering fruit sign, which is everyone's favorite fruit tea room.
Lin Chen suddenly understood, showed a clear smile, and stretched out his hand, "Of course it's no problem, please come in and take a seat!"
Lin Jiwu smiled proudly, raised his feet and walked into the tea room, and then he couldn't laugh anymore.
The name of this tea room is "Electricity with Love", and the interior decoration is particularly romantic and warm, full of peach powder. The tables and chairs used are also specially made, each table is equipped with two fixed chairs, sitting on them with both feet on the ground, which can push the tables and chairs to rotate together, drive the generator under the table, and then light up the cartoon castle model on the table, realizing "electricity generation with love".
Then, it's a little embarrassing, such an occasion is obviously not suitable for two straight men to talk about things. Lin Jiwu ran away for the first time, but Lin Chen, a married person, was quite calm, walked to the bar unhurriedly, asked for two cups of mixed fruits, and then left with Shi Shiran.
found the former in the indoor garden and stuffed the paper cup in his hand into the other party's hand, Lin Chen criticized: "It's an ordinary couple's tea room, not a gay stronghold, what are you running?"
Like most domestic companies, Bee lags behind the rest of the world in terms of employee diversity, with no back-of-house facilities for minorities, no gay cafes, and no vegetarian restaurants.
Knowing that he was out of trouble, Lin Jiwu had no choice but to take the paper cup with a smile, bow his head and inhale and pretend to be intoxicated by the rich fruity aroma.
Lin Chen didn't take advantage of the victory to pursue, sat next to the other party with a paper cup, continued the topic just now, and asked, "Xiao Wu, what were you going to say just now?"
Lin Jiwu said: "626 is a general-purpose chip, which can be used by the host and mobile phone." ”
"Hmm, isn't it?" Lin Chen showed a puzzled expression, "Didn't you say that it was a high-performance chip designed for big roosters?"
"Hey, hey!" the other party replied and asked, "If the performance is enough, why do you want to continue the 4-chip architecture?"
Bowing his head and taking a sip of juice, Lin Jiwu continued: "Brother Chen, you haven't seen the real thing, and it's not surprising that you have this misunderstanding. We have an engineering Pt2 in our studio, and it has a very small processor, and the four chips together are only slightly larger than the original one. ”
"Doesn't that mean anything?" Lin Chen retorted: "The previous generation of chips is still a 28nm process, and now this one is 10nm, with 20 and 16 generations of processes in between, which can greatly increase performance while reducing the area, just like the Snapdragon 835!"
"And then?" Lin Jiwu looked up at the other party, "The chassis is spacious enough, and there is a place to accommodate the circuit board, why make the chip so small? Isn't it better and easier to make a 24-core super chip directly?"
"yes, why not?" Lin Chen was steadied by this question.
Lin Jiwu threw out his opinion: "There is only one answer, and that is to facilitate generalization!"
"Designing 24-core and 32-core superchips is not much more difficult than 4-core and 6-core. The reason why few companies do this is because the number of such chips is too small to dilute the design cost. The server business is not powerful, and I have been using tablet chips to make do, the best physique is given to the server, the medium is given to the host, and the worst is given to the low-end tablet after frequency reduction. This time was no exception. ”
"I know this, but what's the matter with mobile phones? Aren't all mobile phone processors integrated with baseband?"
"Who said that mobile phone chips must be integrated with baseband? iPhone has been using external baseband from the beginning to the present, and I haven't seen any opinions from users. ”
"No!" Lin Chen shook his head, "I mean, don't we have an independent baseband, and we have worked hard to study it, why do we have to give up now?"
"That's no way, who made the three major operators angry?"
"Why is it on the operator again?"
"The big ear baseband is very embarrassing now, there is no cdmA in the five modes, China Telecom Unicom doesn't want it, and you can only plug in the Qualcomm baseband if you want to get the whole Netcom; the network speed is not enough cat7, and the mobile is reluctant to receive, so you can only use the Qualcomm x12 baseband. Although we have our own online and offline channels, the operator channels can not be ignored, and it is completely conceivable what choice Bee Mobile will make," Speaking of this, Lin Jiwu added: "Of course, this is just my guess, and how to do it depends on the actions behind." ”
