Chapter 399: Gnomes
"Xiao Li, please respect Elder Sun. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info" Zhang Zhongmou said unhappily.
Sun Yunxuan suffered a stroke a few years ago, which caused the lower half of his body to be unable to move, but Zhang Zhongmou pushed him over with a wheelchair.
In fact, the two of them also guessed some of Li Mo's ideas, the specifics are not very clear, the key is that TSMC is really short of funds now, and the last thing Li Mo lacks in his hands is funds, it depends on how to talk about it this time.
"Mr. Zhang, it's not that I don't respect it, but this matter is not trivial, if you agree, I will take you over to see something. If you don't agree, it's as if it didn't happen. Li Mo threw away a non-disclosure contract.
The two looked at each other, and Zhang Zhongmou asked suspiciously, "Is it very important?"
"It's important, it's ten times more important than your company's technology, a hundred times a thousand times. ”
Zhang Zhongmou's old face blushed, how can TSMC have any technology accumulation now, it is purely a copycat company.
But this statement, the two became curious, and they both signed it.
Li Menu pouted: "Hao Like, go to Qualcomm." ”
"He's Hollick?"
"Zhang, I'm Hao Like. ”
"Long admiration, long admiration," Zhang Zhongmou said.
When they came, they also inquired, could Hao Like not know, the general under Li Mo.
"You're welcome. ”
Hao Lick pulled them to Qualcomm, and what they just moved over was actually nothing, the main one was a test building.
Jobs and Jacobs are all inside, Zhang Zhongmou and Sun Yunxuan don't know Jacobs, but they know Jobs. Several people said hello, and Li Mo took two people to visit.
Today's mobile phones are no longer the size of laptops, about the same as Big Brother, and it is beyond the scope of Qualcomm technology to further compress them, which is why Jacobs continues to ask Li Mo for money, in addition to burning money for research and development, there is another way, that is, acquisition.
There are ten mobile phone models on the desk, which are mobile phone molds made by Yile according to Li Mo's instructions, and the size and weight are similar to those of the mobile phones developed later, that is, these ten models are the future mobile phone models.
Li Mo introduced them one by one.
Zhang Zhongmou exclaimed: "If it can be successful, it will be an epoch-making product." ”
"It's almost successful, and all technologies are facing breakthrough points...... not only mobile phone hardware technology, but also batteries and communications. Li Mo pondered that the fastest breakthrough in mobile phone hardware technology, followed by the battery. The battery will not work until next year, but the battery is developed, and there are many difficulties from the laboratory to production. However, although the research and development in China is relatively slow, it will be put into production about the year after that. However, whether it is GSM or Qualcomm's TAMD, it will take at least 92 years before it can be fully put into use. The battery can also be in time.
Only then did Zhang Zhongmou understand why Li Mo asked them to sign a confidentiality agreement, this technology is not trivial...... However, his eyes flashed and jumped, there are many functions of chips, but the most used is the PC, not only the processor, there are more than a dozen different chips.
However, these chip markets have long been carved up by various large companies, even if TSMC now wants to take over some odd jobs, it is very difficult.
However, this new mobile phone allowed him to see the dawn again.
After the tour, Li Mo led them to the conference room.
Li Mo opened the price code.
He bid $700 million, and the GDP of the entire bay is only more than 100 billion dollars, which is already very powerful. Not to mention the situation of Wanwan, looking at the world, in 89, there are very few acquisitions that can reach 700 million US dollars.
In fact, Li Mo settled on these two people, otherwise even if he signed a confidentiality agreement, Li Mo would not have been able to take them to visit and introduce them one by one.
Moreover, Li Mo's price code is a figure that has been repeatedly calculated by Jacobs and others.
It must have so much money for TSMC to quickly complete the accumulation of technology, including various equipment and equipment required for R&D and production, as well as some companies and related patented technologies that may be acquired.
It is impossible for Li Mo to wait for TSMC to complete the accumulation of technology step by step.
This price is astronomical, even if TSMC is included, the entire package is less than 100 million US dollars, so only 10 million US dollars can be used as dividends generated by the acquisition, and all the funds for the rest of the year are used for R&D and production.
Divided into two batches, the first batch will inject $200 million this year for TSMC to acquire related technologies and purchase related equipment.
The second batch will inject $500 million next year, but the main production base will be on the land that Li Mo "bought" from the Hong Kong government in Xiangjiang. This will have to wait until next year, and next year Li Mo will invest more money in where to renovate, including the construction of docks.
The reason is also very simple, according to the contract signed between Li Mo and Wilsson, Li Mo's taxes on all industries will be halved, and the taxes in Xiangjiang are not very high, and the taxes alone will save a lot of money in a year. In terms of labor costs, separated by a barbed wire fence, the problem is not big, and a large number of workers can still be recruited from the interior. With mainland workers, everyone understands how cheap the labor cost is.
At the same time, Li Mo also provided a preferential condition to give TSMC 100 hectares of industrial land for free.
The Wanwan stock market is booming again, regardless of housing prices and land prices, they have risen together.
These conditions are also something that Zhang Zhongmou cannot refuse.
The three funds under his name control 40% of TSMC's shares, Qualcomm controls 30%, and the remaining shares continue to be distributed by Zhang Zhongmou himself, including Wanwan's "Executive Yuan", which allocates equity in these 30% shares.
Zhang Zhongmou asked: "Mr. Xiao Li, you took out so much cash, why don't you start a company independently?"
"You and Jacobs have a treat. Li Mo said.
Jacobs was also skeptical at the beginning, but unlike the original acquisition of TSMC, when Li Mo bought Qualcomm, he took out very little money. Now Jacobs will definitely not say less, he will talk about Li Mo's acquisition of Qualcomm, it is not that Li Mo did not start, the key is that after the establishment, Li Mo can not find relevant talents, it is better to leave some shares, the original talents will be left, so that the new company can develop at a high speed. Zhang Zhongmou did not doubt it......
With the rapid development of various companies under Li Mo's name, Li Mo himself did not have much time, let alone set up a headquarters, so he handed over the company's finances and other trends to Hao Like and Xie Fuman to supervise, and they were also responsible for providing Li Mo with various consultations, including collecting intelligence information, so there were more and more personnel, and the two had more than 30 direct subordinates.
And in Zhang Zhongmou's eyes, Li Mo has operated currency and stock market futures many times, and even made a fortune by taking advantage of the difference in the appreciation of the yen.
However, he still asked: "What kind of company is Yihua Company?"
"Yihua company is about to produce this kind of real mobile phone company, not only mobile phones, there will inevitably be PCs in the future, and even related to home appliances and small household appliances, the same is not my own company, I will take out 35% of the distribution of various talents, in addition to absorbing some American shareholders. Li Mo said.
"Qualcomm you can't control it?"
Obviously, Yihua owns 80% of Qualcomm's shares, and Li Mo may only own half of Yihua's shares, so theoretically, Li Mo does not control Qualcomm.
"I already have a lot of shares, so why do I need to control them?" Li Mo replied.
In fact, only Qualcomm is not fully controlled, and it cannot be controlled, because it involves key technologies such as communications, and the United States will allow a Chinese to control them.
TSMC is a different story, and once the negotiations are successful, it will actually hold a 53.4% stake.
But if you go around a bit, it will make two people think that there are shares of other Americans, after all, the outside world is not very clear about the three fund companies. For example, Cisco, Li Mo gave up many shares, all of which were Americans, and on the bright side, there are still several fund companies that hold these shares.
In addition, from the company's point of view, it is all real American companies and Xiangjiang companies, and they have nothing to do with the mainland.
This should also be noted, after all, in the future, the relationship between the two sides is very bad.
Jobs didn't speak on the side, and Li Mo was afraid that the two Wanwan people would be unhappy, and deliberately neglected his stake in Yihuali.
Last year, when he went to China, Li Mo made a comparison with him, which was $5 billion.
At first, Jobs didn't believe it, this is the dollar, not the Korean won.
Now, the money doesn't have to worry about.
In fact, it is more than 5 billion US dollars, for example, Li Mo spent more than 900 million US dollars on Qualcomm, and Yihua Holdings 80%, which is equal to more than 700 million US dollars. If the acquisition is negotiated, it will be 24 percent, or nearly $200 million.
The key is that the battery will inevitably be cross-held with Yihua Company at that time, otherwise it will be inconvenient to exchange patents, and in the current situation between China and the United States, cross-shareholding is also conducive to "disguising identity". The value of this battery is geometric, and if it is not studied, as long as it is studied, its value will not be less than two billion US dollars.
Moreover, in the future, it will also involve PCs and various household appliances, Li Mo has a similar personality to him, and if he wants to do it, he will make high-quality products, so each of them will require an amazing investment, more than 5 billion.
Take this dry stock yourself...... It's a bit inappropriate.
He was really embarrassed, not only him, but even Bill Gates was a little embarrassed, he shared too much money. Yihua is still early, I can say it later, but for now, ...... It seems that after this negotiation, I will have to make a phone call to Bill Gates.
Zhang Zhongmou asked about some other situations, and Li Mo also explained his doubts one by one.
He said the last condition, that is, not only TSMC and Qualcomm, but also Li Mo will set up two other companies in the future, one in the mainland and the other in Europe, and these companies must share technology.
There is also a justifiable reason for this.
Now the most bullish chip company is undoubtedly Intel, but there are also giants such as Texas Instruments, Micron, Philips, Siemens, Italy's SGS Microelectronics and France's Thomson Semiconductor, which merged to form STMicroelectronics, as well as Japan's Toshiba, Hitachi, Mitsubishi Electric, NEC's semiconductor division, as well as South Korea's Samsung, Hynix Semiconductor, and so on.
In the eyes of these giants, Qualcomm and TSMC are not even qualified to be a dwarf.
Therefore, Li Mo will set up several companies to gather outstanding talents from Europe, the United States, the Gulf and the mainland through the means of technology and patent sharing, and quickly catch up with the gap.
Sun Yunxuan didn't listen to Li Mo's flickering, he sat in a wheelchair and asked, "Mr. Xiao Li, is there any relevant technology and talent in the mainland?"
"Mr. Sun, let me ask you, how many countries in the world have built atomic bombs and hydrogen bombs? Don't underestimate the mainland, the same root and the same species, you know the IQ of the Chinese. ”
Sun Yunxuan said in Chinese: "Mr. Xiao Li, I understand your feelings, the current situation in the mainland, you want to cunning rabbit three caves, I can understand, but several companies, which company will the future order be handed over? This must be made clear." ”
"Mr. Sun, the reality is simple, the European part is only responsible for the production of the European part, the mainland part is only responsible for the output of the mainland part, and Qualcomm and TSMC are responsible for the rest of the production. For example, after this kind of mobile phone is launched, the annual sales are 1 million units, only 200,000 units in the European part and only 100,000 units in the mainland, so the companies in the European part are only responsible for the production of these 200,000 chips, and the mainland companies are only responsible for the production of these 100,000 chips. This is Yihua's production allocation, and as for the orders received from other companies, whoever receives them will belong to whom. ”
Then there is no doubt about it.
And they all underestimate the mainland market, but also underestimate the chip market, and even many toys can use chips in the future.
"Mr. Xiao Li, can we take a look at the incense?"
"Yes. ”
In fact, they still want to think about it, what Li Mo is not worried about is that the relationship between the two sides has not deteriorated, second, the shares are easy to confuse people, and the third is that TSMC does not agree, Li Mo can buy a small company at any time, and inject huge funds to quickly make it grow, and Li Mo also retained 30% of the shares for them. There are also orders that may arise from these products...... These will have a fatal temptation to Zhang Zhongmou.
What may hinder is the Wanwan government, after all, there are a lot of shares in the "Executive Yuan", and Li Mo is not afraid, because today's TSMC ...... Before leaving, Sun Yunxuan also praised: "Mr. Xiao Li, you have played a good game of chess by winning the land of Xiangjiang." ”
After all, he was born in politics, and Li Mo's little trick couldn't deceive him.
However, what Li Mo didn't know was that after Sun Yunxuan got on the plane, he turned his back to Hao Like with a gloomy face, and whispered to Zhang Zhongmou twice: "Mainland, mainland ......"
Zhang Zhongmou also whispered: "Old Sun, if you don't want to, let's refuse." I don't believe that without this fund, we TSMC will not be able to break into the sky. ”
He can't blame Li Mo, he can't remember, when Hao Like was collecting intelligence, after all, there were many limitations on which side of Wanwan he was, and there was an important piece of information that Hao Like's subordinates did not find. That is, Sun Yunxuan's impression of the mainland is very poor.
In 87 he said: I don't approve of investing in the mainland, I don't talk about politics, I don't take too much risk economically, my country's businessman has no status there, you don't know what identity he gives you, the political system there does not change, and now it seems to be a free economic system, even if he gives you preferential treatment, you don't know when he will take it back, and besides, they have always had problems with foreign exchange, there is no money to pay, and in the end it is the manufacturers themselves who are upside down...... In terms of competitiveness, although their wages are cheap, their productivity is low, and their workers are not disciplined, which is not necessarily a cost-effective investment, and even if it is a cost-effective investment, it is tantamount to building up their own opponents and creating enemies in their own market...... When the manufacturer trades with China G, don't eat this candy, it is very likely to be poisonous.
When Li Mo said the shares, Sun Yunxuan had no objection.
Li Mo has made so much money, it is impossible not to control it.
And Yihua's ambition also made Sun Yunxuan see one order after another.
Sharing technology, TSMC does not suffer a loss, Qualcomm still has a lot of technology accumulation, what can TSMC have?
Touching the mainland made his boss unhappy.
Li Mo thought that he had made up his mind, and he really asked Sun Yunxuan to return to the law to refuse, this is 700 million US dollars, not 700 million Taiwan dollars. Faced with the $700 million, Sun Yunxuan didn't know what to do.
