57. IBM Acquisition Intent

But it was said that Liu Fei began to produce spare parts for Apple after returning to Europe, but Liu Fei left the aB drawings to Jobs, if such a good thing fell in Liu Fei's hands, then Liu Fei would rather die to apologize. Please search () to see the most complete! The fastest update

In fact, the reason why Liu Fei left the aB drawings to Jobs was that Jobs thought that he was born in a computer, and he first worked on computers and then mobile phones, and Liu Fei naturally didn't care about such a thing, because Jobs was the executive chairman. Liu Fei is just a non-executive chairman who provides all kinds of high-energy equipment, sitting and dividing.

In addition, Liu Fei also plans to use Jobs to cultivate brand effect, at least Liu Fei (old combi) thought of Jobs as soon as he heard Apple.

"An apple woke Newton up, and from then on there was gravity; An apple was bitten by Jobs, and there was an apple from then on. "This is what both the old tease god and Liu Fei have heard, although it is not this parallel time and space, but I believe that there will be such a sentence in this parallel time and space in the future.

The aB designed by Liu Fei is the part of the notebook that Apple launched later, and the performance is higher, and the technology only appeared when CPU technology developed greatly, because GPU occupies a part of the CPU, so although Inl and A are both developing GPU (APU), but CPU is still the main direction of their development.

Because Liu Fei has a built-in GPU, the graphics card can be regarded as no need to install it under normal circumstances, but if you want it, you can also have it. In fact, Jobs himself meant not to add it, but Liu Fei was very strong. It was hard for Jobs to install two graphics cards that could crossfire. Of course, this is a high-end configuration, with 6GB of video memory.

……

Liu Fei sat in his main office drinking tea, and then watched the press conference, now that Jobs was in high spirits, at this time, no one could stop him from developing.

Jobs used an ordinary white aB on stage to demonstrate the hardware of Liu Fei's hardware. Endure. After opening Microsoft Pro Flight Sim, you can still play the web, which is completely impossible in the previous laptop.

In fact, "Microsoft Professional Flight Simulator" is now used as a copy test software, and the performance of the computer is useless, just try it with this thing. Some counterfeit computers are even scrapped in half an hour, of course, this is a long time after Apple's aB was released.

Jobs' battery level test was of great interest, and the battery was reduced to less than a tenth of its capacity after more than half an hour of use, which was a feat. Because the development of many laptops is limited by hardware, the most important of which is the CPU, and the other is the battery.

Batteries are very important for laptops, and laptops sell batteries. If the battery is very weak, it is better to move a desktop to use it everywhere, and the performance is much better than that of a laptop.

aB and a are the main hardware devices of Apple later, since time has proved that aB and a are very good things, then Liu Fei can naturally take some detours. This detour may not be known to the current generation of Jobs, but time will prove that Liu Fei did the right thing.

Just as Liu Fei was drinking coffee and watching the press conference and enjoying a rare leisure time. Liu Fei looked at Jobs's still slightly emaciated face, and suddenly remembered a sentence he predicted in 1996 about IB: "IB or Xerox product developers can make better products or computers, but when you monopolize the market, it is the sales and marketing people who can make the company more successful, they will eventually control the company, and the product people will be excluded from the decision-making circle." ”

This was confirmed when IB was faced with a dilemma later, Liu Fei did not want his Liu's Electronics Manufacturing Co., Ltd. to be a subsidiary of Apple, a subsidiary of Liu's Electronic Manufacturing Co., Ltd., to be seized by salesmen, which was a great disrespect to Liu Fei, who was technologically supreme.

Therefore, Liu Fei needs to create a competitor to compete with Apple, of course, this needs to be in his own hands, just distribute the benefits according to the market share, so that it is truly fair.

So Liu Fei thought of IB, this is an old brand, Lenovo's notebook part is the acquired IB's ThnPad ("thinking book"), Lenovo's notebook department later sold well, at least in the big flower area to do very big. (Even the old funny notebook is associated)

It can be seen that IB's notebook department is still very good, and in fact, their overall ability is also quite good.

IB's software is also good, at least it is still very competitive, coupled with the brand effect of decades, IB is not yet at the end of the mountain, and it may be difficult to acquire now. However, Liu Fei has never been worried about difficulties, the stronger the difficulties, the more challenging Liu Fei thinks, this is the life that men should worship.

As a result, Liu Fei's intention to acquire IB was formalized, and he began to find ways to know his strengths and weaknesses. Only after knowing your strengths and weaknesses can you make the right choice, the current IB is still a behemoth, and now Liu Fei does not dare to buy IB easily. Liu Fei's liquidity is not much left, and the aviation manufacturing industry has a long money-making cycle, so the liquidity will be partially limited in the near future.

After statistics, the funds that Liu Fei can mobilize now are to remove the greedy ones. After $1.923 billion, $300 million spent on Apple, $70 million in monthly payroll and maintenance, about $1.2 billion in the short term, and $1.6 billion in long-term liquidity. Liu Fei's steps were a little bigger, so that now the company's internal liquidity is pitiful.

Therefore, Liu Fei had to put aside this intention for the time being, because this intention may be leaked in advance, causing the entire Liu Group to fall into a situation from which it will never recover.

Among the Lufthansa Group, Yang Lingxue pendulum: With an aB on the desk, this computer is very lightweight. After the memory inheritance of the old comic god, Yang Lingxue knew his location. However, as for how the old tease came about, Yang Lingxue doesn't know, this is also a question that Yang Lingxue seems to know.

Now Yang Lingxue pendulum.. Playing a lighter aB than he remembered, his white fingers flew on the keyboard, and he soon found a news that appeared briefly in a very inconspicuous corner of the official website of Liu's Group recently: "On September 4, 2004, Liu's Electronic Manufacturing Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Liu's Group, successfully negotiated with Apple Group about the acquisition, and Liu's Electronic Manufacturing Co., Ltd. spent $300 million to hold 25% of Apple's shares. ”
