Hayakawa Ning glanced at her, and only felt that this woman was just beautiful and temperamental, and very quiet, but she didn't expect to be able to get to the point in one sentence. He smiled slightly: "Of course joint ventures can, and they can win the favor of Sharp's top management more than the acquisition of technology!" However, since China's reform and opening up in 1978, all companies that want to obtain technology in the form of joint ventures have almost all been wiped out! It's not that they all ended up in losses, but they have forgotten their original intentions! Compromises cannot be exchanged for the understanding of the ruthless capital, nor can it be respected by the opponent! This is the 'market for technology' that often appeared in the newspapers in your Chinese media in the last century, but it has not been heard often since the new century, because it has been proved by countless examples to be a very unsuccessful national policy! ”

Song Chen said bitterly: "Sharp has a lot of money, if I want Sharp to invest in the company with technology, I'm afraid that Sharp will ask for at least 50% of the shares even if he agrees!" In this way, how can we talk about localization? ”

"Yes, you've thought it through!" Hayakawa Niichi said lightly, "This is the dilemma you have to face when you rashly get involved in this industry, this is no longer a problem that can be solved by simple funds!" If not, why would the powerful political zhì family in China come to you? Bring sand to the beach! ”

Song Chen was silent.

In the conversation between the two men, Su Wan perfectly played the role of a courtesan who warmed up the scene, and only spoke when the atmosphere was stiff. Seeing that both Weng and her son-in-law were silent, she pretended to be distressed and said to her lover: "In this way, it seems that there is no other way to go!" ”

Hayakawa Neichi shook his head and said with a wry smile: "There is no way to do this. An established technology company may be conservative at times, but it certainly won't transfer core technology to competitors in a flash! And behind this is also mixed with ideological institutional confrontation and political games between countries...... It's simply something we can solve by talking face-to-face! ”

Until here, Song Chen finally understood that Sharp's path was no longer possible, and even if he contacted Gu Benmao, I was afraid that the result would not be better!

Therefore, Song Chen said helplessly: "Then this plan can only be put on hold for the time being!" ”

Hayakawa Ning raised his eyebrows in surprise, because in his impression, Song Chen was a man full of imagination and aura, and he was not a person who gave up so easily. He couldn't help but ask, "Why?" I've given you your best options so far! ”

Song Chen pondered it again and again. Finally, he said slowly: "After the outbreak of the Asian financial crisis in 97, the Korean semiconductor industry suffered a heavy blow! The South Korean government has also been using finance as a lever to secretly promote the separation of the Zheng family, the big chaebol in South Korea, and it has also damaged the interests of LG Group in a certain way! LG Semiconductor and Hyundai Semiconductor had to merge under the pressure and mediation of creditors, and the management team changed its name to Hynix this year after taking back the company's control from creditors! Gu Benmao was very unhappy with this. I have always hoped to control the Hynix company. But it has been resisted by the management of Hynix! ”

Hayakawa nodded thoughtfully. "So?" he asked. ”

"Although Goomoto Shigeru didn't say it, I think he still hopes to get Hynix back!" Song Chen's face sank like water, and his bright eyes were unusually deep and charming. "So the last time he visited, I promised him that if LG Group wanted to acquire Hynix, I would be willing to provide part of the acquisition funds as a financial investor!"

The slightly squinted eyes couldn't stop the flash of light at that moment, Hayakawa Nenyi pursed his lips and snorted softly: "First the British ARM company, then TFT-LCD, and then the semiconductor industry...... You're really a great game! Sue me, what products is your Chenxing Technology developing? ”

"Cell phone!" Song Chen's eyes lightly threw out a word.

Song Chen said vaguely, and he didn't reveal his core strategy at all! But Hayakawa Ning was stunned for a moment, thinking that Song Chen had an idea about the feature phone, so he nodded: "Mobile phone? Your goal is clear! The mobile phone market in mainland China is very huge, and when I take up my duties in China, I can see most clearly that this market contains huge opportunities! ”

It's no wonder that Hayakawa Niichi understands the bias, Song Chen neither revealed that his mobile phone strategy involves "intelligent operating systems", nor did he say that it is a "full touch screen product strategy". IN FACT, IN 2002, MICROSOFT'S WINDOWSMOBILE OPERATING SYSTEM DOMINATED THE COUNTRY, OCCUPYING MORE THAN 60% OF THE SMARTPHONE MARKET, WHILE THE SALES OF SMARTPHONES ACCOUNTED FOR ONLY 10% OF THE ENTIRE MOBILE PHONE.

He still shook his head with his own understanding and commented: "Samsung's road is not easy, are you sure you want to continue?" ”

Song Chen also shook his head and said lightly: "The path I took is indeed similar to Samsung, but the essence is different!" My father-in-law will soon find out about this in the future! “

"That's it! It's been said that 'no one knows what you're preparing when the curtain is lifted', and that's true! At the turn of the century, in this technological desert of China, there are really unusual figures like you! Hayakawa Neichi shook his head with a wry smile.

Su Wan covered her mouth and said with a smile: "If there is no such anomaly, Ning Yi, wouldn't you have such a good son-in-law?" ”

Yin Jinghe pursed her lips and smiled silently, seemingly agreeing.

Hayakawa Neichi was noncommittal, but said: "If Shigeru Gomoto really agrees with your proposal, and Hynix investors also agree to this merger, you can acquire Hynix's TFT-LCD LCD panel business with the support of Shigeru Gomoto!" You can get both technology and talent, this is the best way! The status of the financial investor somewhat restricts you from obtaining greater benefits from Hynix, but this way, the Korean government will not oppose the acquisition because of your status! And once you change your nationality in the future, maybe you can go further, this is indeed a win-win solution! The question is, how determined is Goo Ben Shigeru? ”

Thinking that he had lost the initiative to introduce LCD panel technology, Song Chen's mood was not very good, and he could only say in a muffled voice: "I hope he can make a decision that is beneficial to both parties!" ”

……

When Gu Benmao received Song Chen's call, it was already more than three o'clock in the afternoon Seoul time. Regarding Song Chen's desire to obtain the fifth-generation TFT-LCD panel technology, Gu Ben Shigeru really rejected Song Chen's request on the grounds that "the South Korean government and technical partner Philips are unlikely to nod" as Hayakawa Nenichi expected; But when Song Chen changed his words, hoping that LG Group would play a role in the acquisition of Hynix, he was silent.

As Song Chen said, Gu Benmao does not want to lose Hynix, and also hopes to be able to acquire Hynix Semiconductor, but there are many problems that need to be solved urgently.

The first is the South Korean government, which has maintained a leading attitude towards the chaebol government in recent years, while threatening to suppress the South Korean chaebol during its term of office to the people who have votes. On the other hand, they are worried that the crackdown on the chaebol will have a negative impact on the South Korean economy.

After all, the influence of the Korean chaebol on South Korea's society, economy, and politics is almost deep-rooted. There is a deep symbiotic relationship, they are afraid of suppression and rat taboo, and they change their attitude at any time with the domestic public opinion!

But one thing is for sure, once the South Korean chaebol in the country wants to acquire industrial influence. Radicals within the South Korean government will rise to the top. Even though the Gu family has a strong influence in the political arena. Gu Benmao didn't dare to "commit crimes against the wind"!

Secondly, due to the shortage of funds, LG Group started its transformation early and survived the difficulties of the Asian financial crisis. The effect is also impressive, but after all, it hurts the vitality, which is the key reason why the South Korean government can use the bank syndicate to impose a scalpel on LG Semiconductor.

Finally, the attitude of Hynix's investors and management, if LG Group wants to acquire Hynix, it must not only obtain the consent of Hynix's creditor banking group, but also let Hynix's management express its support! Most of Hynix's management is the former Hyundai Semiconductor, and it is doubtful whether they are willing to belong to LG Group!

After putting down the phone, Gu Benmao sat in the low-key and luxurious study and fell into deep thought.

At this moment, a middle-aged woman in her fifties walked in with a bowl of Chinese medicine with a strong and strange taste, she was Kim Young-sik, Goo Ben-mao's wife, and saw her husband sitting at the desk and gently tapping on the table with her hand.

She said reproachfully: "Since you are resting at home today, let's rest well!" What other great things are you thinking about? ”

Seeing his wife, Gu Benmao's facial expression instantly softened, and his smile was like a Chinese medicine in a bowl, extremely bitter: "When you are the president, how can you really be idle!" And I don't have an heir......"

The heir seems to be a common heart disease of the two, and before Gu Benmao's voice fell, Kim Young-sik changed color. Goomoto's face was also very painful, because he remembered his son who died in a car accident!

For South Korea's top two chaebols, the heir is no longer a private matter of the Goomoto family, but a major event of the Goo family and even the entire LG Group - just like the crown prince of the ancient feudal empire, hanging in the air will cause the country to be uneasy!

Gu Ben Shigeru sighed, picked up the bowl and drank the bitter Chinese medicine. After waiting for him to finish drinking, Kim Young-sik silently picked up a towel to wipe the residue off the corner of his lips, and handed over a grain of rock candy.

Gu Benmao put the rock candy in his mouth, and then sighed deeply: "I shouldn't have mentioned it!" ”

Kim Young-sik said softly: "There is nothing that should not be done!" It's fate! ”

Goo Benmao nodded, putting this heavy topic aside, and instead brought up another matter: "How did so-jin talk with the little boy of the Choi family of SK Group?" Did his father and third uncle agree? ”

"It should be almost!" Kim Young-sik asked, "Why did you mention so-jin again?" Last time you took her to New York, it was really nonsense, I don't know who Song Chen is? ”

Gu Benmao smiled bitterly: "I said, the third uncle has already agreed, what are you complaining about?" ”

"Then you shouldn't come forward!" Kim Young-sik said unhappily, "After all, you are the chairman of the dignified LG Group, why are you involved in these things?" Since the third uncle is optimistic about Song Chen, he wants to send his granddaughter to Song Chen, so let him send it himself! ”

Gu Benmao, who is a typical patriarchal tendency, seemed very unimpressed, but he didn't want to reason with his wife about this matter, he shook his head and said, "Song Chen just called me and asked if I was willing to buy Hynix Semiconductor!" ”

"Hynix Semiconductor?" Kim Young-sik asked in surprise, "The acquisition of Hynix Semiconductor is also a matter for our LG Group, why is he so active?" ”

Gu Benmao pondered for a moment and said slowly: "He hopes to get the fifth-generation TFT-LCD panel technology. I refused and settled on the next best thing, hoping to acquire Hynix Semiconductor's TFT-LCD business! ”

Kim Young-sik squinted slightly, and sneered: "He wants to be beautiful, even if we are willing to sell, will the government approve it?" ”

Gu Benmao said lightly: "Compared with the fifth-generation panel production line we cooperated with Philips, Hynix LCD panel technology is relatively backward, and with the government's mind, it is very likely to agree to this 'N-1" transaction plan!" After all, Hynix Semiconductor is still in debt! ”

Kim Young-sik hesitated for a moment and asked, "What are your plans?" Husband. Lee Kun-hee is now at odds with Song Chen. Your sudden trip to New York last month has already put you in the spotlight, and bringing your niece has made the local media even more cranky, why should you continue to go down with the other party? ”

"People who have achieved great things, where can they care about this false name? If it weren't for Xiuzhen, she wouldn't be able to catch Song Chen's heart. I'm happy to see it happen! Gu Benmao said lightly. Have you ever wondered. Why am I so optimistic about Song Chen? ”

Kim Young-sik sneered: "Isn't what you men value is profit? The Chenxing Group created by Song Chen is getting stronger and stronger, of course you men have to look at it twice! But to be honest, I don't understand this Chinese career at all. You say he's powerful, and the global tech community is now overwhelmingly reporting on him; You say he's not strong, he has a lot of subsidiaries, but he hasn't made much profit at the moment, right? ”

"What you see is what everyone has already seen, but I have to think a little deeper!" Gu Benmao's eyes flashed with an elusive color, and he said slowly, "I've been guessing that he is accepting Charlie? At the time of the Ross interview, what is the so-called second venture! He called today, and I vaguely saw a little bit of it, but I didn't feel like it! ”

Kim Young-sik said disapprehantly: "How can it be so profound! I don't deny that this boy is very talented, but you don't need to read his words and deeds so thoroughly, some things need time to dig out the truth after all! ”

"I'm afraid it'll be too late then!" Gu Benmao shook his head, feeling very dissatisfied with his wife's words, "If Song Chen before the Internet stock market crash bubble still has a little luck and can catch the opportunity brought by the pulse of the times!" So after the outbreak of the Internet bubble crisis, the steady development of Chenxing Group has shattered this 'luck theory', and every step he takes seems to have an extraordinary sense of smell, which makes me have a strong interest in this man! I'm wondering if LG Group can reach a closer relationship with Chenxing Group! And the third uncle's request also made me realize that it was not only me who saw this, but also the third uncle's vein! ”

Kim Young-sik hesitated for a moment, and finally said stupidly: "Fortunately, you don't have a head to faint, take Yanqiong to see Song Chen, otherwise I will definitely be angry!" ”

Gu Benmao smiled bitterly: "Don't say I didn't have this idea at the beginning!" Even if there is, Yanqiong's child doesn't have a good impression of Song Chen! That kid is hell-bent on finding a handsome and handsome prince charming, not a half-hearted playboy! ”

"That's it!" Kim Young-sik smiled, and then asked, "What are your plans regarding Hynix?" Really want to buy Hynix? ”

Gu Benmao groaned: "Whether I want to buy Hynix or not, it is feasible for Song Chen to have relatively backward technology!" As a shareholder of SK Hynix, I happen to know that China's BOE is in contact with SK hynix, which is trying to acquire SK hynix's LCD panel production business! But what's interesting is that Song Chen is ready to buy BOE in his mother's name to achieve the purpose of cross-industry operation - he obviously doesn't know that BOE and Hynix Semiconductor have long been closely connected! ”

Kim Young-sik was surprised: "Huh? It seems that he decided to get involved in TFT-LCD panel technology in a very hasty manner, and he didn't do his homework well! It doesn't seem like his style, he's a proven master of strategy! ”

"It seems that his two fathers-in-law who are big officials have played a very important role, and the Chinese bureaucrats are not two things to make decisions about!" Gu Benmao smiled slightly, "Despite this, since Song Chen wants to get involved in this industry, I am afraid it is also necessary for his own strategy, otherwise the investment of billions at every turn is not something he can afford now!" ”

Kim Young-sik suddenly understood: "So...... Are you going to do a favor? ”

Gu Benmao nodded: "Since Song Chen sent me a consultation, I'm afraid that he has hit a wall with Hayakawa Ningyi, otherwise Sharp's technology is more advanced, and he doesn't need to ask me at all!" Although I can't decide to sell the fifth-generation panel technology to him, I can act as a middleman and sell Hynix's LCD panel technology to him first! As for the acquisition of Hynix, I think it can be put on the agenda! ”

Jin Yingzhi frowned slightly and said, "Last time you said that you wanted to use Song Chen's funds?" He's a little sensitive! ”

"It's okay!" Gu Ben Shigeru squinted his eyes, and a smile appeared on the corner of his lips, "He accepts Charlie?" After Rose's interview, there are not many people who know that he plans to change his nationality! What's more, he only provided funds as a financial investor, and did not occupy a seat on the board of directors, and the government would not put obstacles in this matter! ”

Kim Young-sik nodded and asked thoughtfully, "Will he come to South Korea?" Since the family photo incident, it seems that our people have put him on the list of undesirables! ”

"Whew!" Gu Benmao ridiculed mercilessly, "It's just that some media who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic cannot represent the entire people, nor can they represent the will of the capital circle, he is just the whispers of some radicals, and he can't be true!" As for whether Song Chen will come? I guess he wouldn't dare, after all, people who are stared at by Chairman Li have to turn around three times when they walk! ”

In the end, Goo Ben-mao's words are full of mockery of Lee Kun-hee! (To be continued......)
