Chapter 405: The Unbreakable Knot (I)
It's like a movie, even more exciting than a movie.
It's a lose-lose tragedy for Yahoo and Hanhua, but it's an opportunity for financial vultures like Robert and Zhang Quanbao to make a fortune.
When Kyle and Yang Zhiyuan negotiated the terms of the settlement, the continuous good news made the stock prices of Yahoo and Hanhua soar. In the midst of the changes, although the bet on the treasure has made a lot of money, the big head has been pocketed by the quiet Robert, and many small and medium-sized investment institutions that have been kept in the dark are full of mourning. The big conglomerates use inside information to make profits, and it is vividly manifested at this moment, and it does not leave the slightest evidence to the outside world, as if everything is a normal fluctuation of the stock market.
At a gathering organized by alumni, Li Jiaming, who was pulled by Lao Guo Qiang, saw Yang Zhiyuan from a distance and politely raised his glass. Today's party is called alumni, but it is actually about the two of them, and Li Jiaming knows it from Lao Guo's insistence.
Alas, private profits are not less, and corporate losses are even greater. Hanhua seems to have won, but it lost nearly half of the wireless office market in North America, and had to ask the iTunes Store to compensate Yahoo a billion dollars; Yahoo lost even worse, although Apple has sprung up in the wireless office market, and the losses within the wall are far from enough to make up for the lost market value and advertisers' claims.
The doomed war, the unpredicted tragedy, everything is made by the world.
The two of them, who could afford to win and lose, shook hands, which also made Zhang Luo's old Guo and them breathe a sigh of relief. In the past few years, Chinese scholars in California have been getting better and better, in addition to their own efforts, a very important reason is that these two have won glory for everyone and given a lot of funding to their compatriots in terms of project funding.
However, the heart knot has been planted, and if Li Jiaming and Yang Zhiyuan want to return to the previous friendship years, it is too high to look at the minds of the two. If it weren't for Hanhua to make the first move this time, it would be impossible for the IOS alliance to replace Excellence, but it would be inevitable to lose a considerable part of the market; if it weren't for Robert and the huge forces behind him, Yahoo would not have died, but it would inevitably shed its skin again.
It's just that the two of them still have a lot of common interests, and it's difficult to be completely strangers. The GCA Research Institute has not stopped the research and development of chips, but the technical level has never kept up with the pace of Intel and FL, and can only be used on iPods.
After some entertainment, when the two met again, Yang Zhiyuan took the initiative to say: "Jiaming, take a step to speak?"
However, if Li Jiaming was placed in Yang Zhiyuan's position, he would definitely try to break away from Hanhua's control. It's just that he will lay out quietly and will not easily let people see the flaws.
"Hmm".
Li Jiaming raised his glass to the alumni next to him, and then followed Yang Zhiyuan out of the hall. Coming to the terrace outside the hall, the alumni chatting here also greeted each other tacitly and left, giving up this place to the two Chinese lights.
With a 'ding' sound, Yang Zhiyuan took the initiative to touch the cup with Li Jiaming and discussed: "Smile and complain?"
"Not a grudge?"
In contrast, Yang Zhiyuan, who suffered a loss, smiled and said open-mindedly: "I can't talk about it, I can't help myself."
This can't be done, the war was provoked by himself, but the root is not in himself, Li Jiaming grabbed the white and said: "Grievance?"
Why?
Everything is done under the rules of business, and it is not the turn of Li Jiaming, who has played with the means, to teach him. But justice is at ease in the hearts of the people, even if it was the war provoked by Li Jiaming, even if he not only declared war but also engaged in conspiracy and trickery before the war, Yang Zhiyuan still felt that he was at a loss. As early as when Yahoo acquired Apple shares, when Yang Zhiyuan asked Li Jiaming for help, Li Jiaming clearly crossed the bottom line.
However, Yang Zhiyuan believes that if he puts himself in his shoes, Li Jiaming will only do a better job than himself, instead of cooking the possible opportunity into a sandwich meal that almost chokes people to death.
"Interesting?"
It's not interesting, being kind is the philosophy of life, but you can't sell your name and learn from the overlord.
"Of course, I warned you a long time ago that this is an era of collaboration, and everything is about win-win. ”
Yang Zhiyuan still had a smile on his face, and said-for-tat: "Didn't iTunes Store also give up the charge for digital certificates?"
That's just an expedient measure in a critical moment, how can it be the norm? Li Jiaming said happily: "Hanhua will soon propose a profit share to the software developer. ”
"You"
"A word of caution, you are still a major shareholder of GCA, although you have been expelled from the board."
"I also remind you that you are still the second largest individual shareholder of FL, with more shares than David!"
It's still for FL, Li Jiaming didn't care and said: "It doesn't matter, if the money comes to me, what I'm worried about all the time is how to spend the money." If my children and grandchildren are like me, what will I do if I keep money? If I am virtuous and have more wealth, I will lose their aspirations; if my children and grandchildren are not as good as me, what will I do if I leave money? If my children and grandchildren are like me, what will they do if they leave money? ”
"Hypocrisy!"
is indeed hypocritical, not to mention that Yang Zhiyuan doesn't believe it, and even Li Jiaming himself doesn't believe it. If he didn't leave his property to Xinxin's siblings, don't say that his father couldn't spare him, and even Sasha, who was still tinkering with the design studio, would have a cold war with him.
However, he needs to show Yang Zhiyuan an attitude not to kidnap him with benefits. FL is important, but if FL doesn't work for him, it's a good investment with little real value.
Looking left and right for a few moments, seeing that there was no one around, Yang Zhiyuan, who came on a special trip, whispered: "Jiaming, our performance is almost the same as Intel, and the time is ripe." ”
"No, we need Intel as an ally. ”
"I heard the news that the KMT and the CPC are preparing to sign the 'Cross-Strait Economic Cooperation Framework Agreement' in Shanghai."
Li Jiaming knew about this early in the morning, and through his father-in-law's way, he knew the general framework, and he knew what the other party meant when he said this, but he wanted to hear the real promise, not the cloudy nonsense. Although the two had a vicious fight, they still trust this person's character, as long as they don't donate to the interests of FL, many things can be discussed.
"Economic Cooperation Frameork Agreement, abbreviated as ECFA".
"Yes, your father-in-law is the executive deputy director of the Financial and Economic Committee."
"Make a point!"
"Ok", Yang Zhiyuan finally threw out his bargaining chips - to build a chip production base in the mainland.
"What does this have to do with our hair?"
Of course, it has a relationship, excellent mobile phones occupy 80% of the market share of smartphones, and Hanhua, as the leading boss, has a huge influence on the downstream of the industry, but if you want this guy to help secretly, you have to give him what he wants, and a little economic benefit alone will not help.
"We are going to settle in Xunyang, what do you think?"
This is a bit interesting, but Li Jiaming doesn't want to forget about it, so he can't deny it: "My father-in-law is no longer in Xunyang." ”
Compared with the cost of transportation, the market is more important, recalling the transportation network around Xunyang, Yang Zhiyuan gritted his teeth and said: "What about your hometown?"
This bargaining chip is not good, although Li Jiaming also wants to make a hen that lays golden eggs for his hometown, but things that violate the laws of the economy will be corrected sooner or later.
"And what do you want?"
Li Jiaming wanted the diffusion of technology, and as long as FL agreed to cooperate with Hanhua, he agreed to persuade domestic mobile phone manufacturers to give priority to the purchase of FL chips.
"It can't be"
It was impossible to pull it down, Li Jiaming turned around and left.
