175 Negotiations
Wang Zhengyu's words fell, and after the translator translated the original text, the three Hijima people on the other side laughed at the same time, and only after a while did Michiro Kanya speak: "Chairman Wang, maybe you have misunderstood, this has little to do with whether we change our minds or not, in fact, you should also know that Nikon's lithography equipment is a controlled product, and the problem is not even with us, so I think it is actually a matter of little significance for us to continue this topic." ā
"Oh?" Wang Zhengyu frowned slightly, and said lightly: "Then you mean, INTE1 company buys your company's S62OD lithography machine for 30 million US dollars each, and I can't buy it with 6ooo US dollars?" Thirty units, 1.8 billion US dollars, we can use the previous T/T transaction, such a big business Mr. Kantani is ready to turn away like this? ā
As soon as Wang Zhengyu's words came out, the three of them looked obviously stern, especially Nikon's marketing manager Tomotaka Ida, who was puzzled by how to look at his frowning brows.
If someone else had said this, perhaps the people of Nikon would not have been so entangled. After all, $1.8 billion is not a small number, and it is also a direct 100% advance payment, which not all Huaxia companies can afford.
But the person on the other side definitely has the financial resources, which is beyond doubt.
Seeing that such a large sum of money cannot be earned, the entanglement in everyone's hearts can be imagined. In particular, Nikon's precision equipment business posted a loss in the last quarter of last fiscal year due to the sluggish semiconductor and 1CD production facilities due to the slump in the global PC business.
Nikon's imaging equipment business was also affected by Canon's products, and had to lower the price of cameras and lenses. It has had a big impact on profits. If it weren't for the sudden emergence of Nikon's life science instrument business, which drove the total profitability of Nikon's entire instrument business. Their financial statements for this quarter are really out of sight.
So when Wang Zhengyu made this offer without hesitation, Nikon's senior management would be true or false if he didn't want to say that he was not impressed. What's more, they have no doubt that Wang Zhengyu has the strength to come up with this money. Who doesn't know that Tianshu Technology is rich now?
Given that Tianshu Energy's ice core batteries are not sold to foundries. Don't look for dealers, only the sales policy for the brand. It is used for the supporting production of high-end imaging equipment. And the batteries they need are relatively small, and those big ones don't know how much they have to contribute to Tianshu Technology every month. However, no matter how conservative it is, it will at least increase dozens of times.
Besides, Tianshu Technology also has the income of the advanced version of the Chinese language, and the two sky-high transactions with Microsoft and Apple some time ago have spread all over the world. With these funds as a foundation, $1.8 billion is really nothing to Tianshu Technology. Not to mention the movements in the U.S. stock market, these people have heard of it, although everyone has no evidence that the Chinese man in front of him did it, but who else can be so sure that he has invested such a large amount of money to short Microsoft?
Needless to say, it's just on the U.S. stocks. The one in front of him has swept at least nearly eight billion dollars. Therefore, although Tianshu Technology is not listed and does not need to publish financial statements to the public, it is a fact recognized by everyone that Tianshu Technology is wealthy.
Such a local tyrant sat in front of him and threw out a contract that was difficult for him to refuse, but he had to refuse, and the deep entanglement in the hearts of Nikon's senior officials at this time can be imagined.
So this time, Michiro Kanya hesitated for three minutes before frowning and slowly speaking: "Chairman Wang may not know, in fact, our products have been signed ......."
"$70 million a piece!" Wang Zhengyu didn't even wait for the translator to translate Michiro Kantana's words, but just looked at the other party's expression when he spoke, and directly interrupted Michiro Kantana's words, and continued to increase the price.
Then he picked up the fragrant tea on the table. took a sip lightly, and looked at the more tangled expressions of the three people opposite. Looking at the various sad looks of the three opposite, Wang Zhengyu even thought it was quite interesting.
"Chairman Wang, please listen to me. Some things are not money......"
"Eight million dollars! But I'm a person who likes to do business simply, and if I reach my bottom limit, President Kantani is still so unruly. I'll stand up and leave directly, President Kanaya, please think about it seriously! As a matter of fact. The equipment I need isn't something that only Nikon can provide! Wang Zhengyu put down the tea in his hand and said indifferently.
After Huang Yuanyuan completely translated Wang Zhengyu's words. This time, the three of them were completely silent. It's just that the tangled color on his face is also thicker.
80 million units means that each S62OD lithography machine can bring Nikon nearly 60 million US dollars in profits, 30 units is a turnover of 2.4 billion US dollars, and a profit of about 1.8 billion US dollars, which Michiro Kanya believes is simply an irresistible temptation for any company.
This is more than a part of the funds invested in the research and development of the latest EUV lithography technology, or this new lithography product can mature faster. You know, Nikon is not without competitors. As Wang Zhengyu said, INTE1 has invested more than $5 billion to buy shares in ASML, just to speed up the company's EUV research progress.
And for Wang Zhengyu, he is also inclined to cooperate with Nikon, which is why he found Nikon first.
First, Nikon is the supplier of inte1 lithography equipment, and their technology is relatively perfect, and second, the EUV lithography technology researched by Nikon just overlaps with ASML's research, even if he has to exchange the technical difficulties given to him by the book of heaven in the end, this is just to make EUV lithography technology available in advance.
According to Tianshu's judgment, with the huge financial support of INTE1, this extreme ultraviolet lithography technology will be able to pass the inspection of the UEG real YĆN room by May 2o17 at the latest, and will be officially used for the production of semiconductor chips.
In addition, Wang Zhengyu has prepared a complete set of EUV research materials, including a complete set of light source design, photomask substrate making, and other difficult materials that are difficult to overcome with lithography technology, and is ready to provide to enterprises committed to Huaxia's independent lithography machine research.
Of course, with these information, whether Huaxia can research it independently or not, Wang Zhengyu really can't care. After all, his energy is also limited, and he really can't cover everything, especially the industrial base of Huaxia, which takes too much time to improve. In the words of Tianshu, repeated research on this technology that is destined to be obsolete in the future is a meaningless waste of resources.
Therefore, Wang Zhengyu is naturally more inclined to spend money on equipment, which is simple and simple. His idea is even simpler, one day these manufacturers of production equipment will work for him, even if he pays more now, he will have to pay him back in the future. There is technology, so there is confidence.
The three of Nikon didn't speak, and Wang Zhengyu didn't say much, just sat there quietly, observing the reactions of the three people opposite, and occasionally picked up the teacup and took a sip. There was silence in the negotiation room.
For Nikon's executives, no one likes Wang Zhengyu's simple and crude negotiation method, in fact, if it weren't for Tianshu Energy's ice core battery, maybe there would not have been today's formal meeting at all.
But the price offered by Wang Zhengyu really made them hesitate, if they managed to facilitate this business, the profit obtained would even exceed Nikon's total earnings in the second fiscal quarter, which was obviously an extremely cost-effective deal. How good would it be if Tianshu Technology wasn't a company in Huaxia?
So this time the silence lasted longer, almost a full five minutes, and Michiro Kanya slowly spoke: "I think about this business, we need to have some communication within Nikon, or we will come here today, we will carefully consider Chairman Wang's price, and give you a result!" ā
"Do you still need to communicate?" Wang Zhengyu smiled, straightened his body and said solemnly: "President Kangu, with all due respect, I need your company's lithography equipment, just because we Tianshu Technology don't want to put too much energy on the research of existing semiconductor electronic industry equipment, in fact, if you can't buy products, we Tianshu Technology can also research and produce the same type of lithography equipment as your company, but it takes a lot of time." If we are forced to develop this kind of lithography equipment by ourselves, Nikon will not only miss this lucrative business, but also more likely to set up a competitor that you can't beat in the next two or three years, so please think twice! ā
Wang Zhengyu's words obviously hurt the other party's nerves.
As one of the only manufacturers in the world to have mastered the most advanced lithography technology, Nikon is quite confident in its own lithography technology. It's something that took a lot of time and money to pile up.
They know very well that Huaxia's research results in the field of lithography technology are far from reaching their manufacturing process and technical level, so although Wang Zhengyu offered a lot of money, these words really made them feel quite harsh when they listened.
"With all due respect, Chairman Wang, you are too confident, you must know that the research in the field of optical devices is definitely not as simple as you imagined, especially the 193nm immersive lithography technology from the beginning to the maturity, Nikon's efforts are beyond your imagination. I admit that your battery products and intelligent software technology are epoch-making products, but do you really understand lithography technology? Take one of the S62OD's lenses, for example, it has hundreds or thousands of lenses inside, and each lens is installed according to the perfect design, which is almost not good at all. Moreover, each lens has its own function and is not the same size, and the core technologies such as optical design, optical testing, and precision machining are integrated here. We know that Huaxia now has the ability to produce its own lithography equipment, but your company's willingness to do so seems to be enough to illustrate it. As for catching up with Nikon in two or three years, isn't Chairman Wang really joking? Nikon Vice President Tatsuya Yamaguchi couldn't help but speak. (To be continued!)
