1307 Let the government act as a notary
Regarding Xie Heping and Li Fei sitting on the side and plotting to rob themselves by means of collecting taxes, Yun Fei didn't pay attention to it at all.
At this moment, he is weighing whether to bow to AMD.
After all, this matter is the order of the bigwigs above, and it is related to the national strategy. If it weren't for AMD, which was almost overwhelmed by Intel, in order to get some benefits from the competition between the two, it would not have allowed Yun Fei to do this.
$500 million is a bit of a small amount for this technology.
Don't you see that Intel has invested tens of billions of dollars?
If AMD collapses, then the entire world hardware market will be monopolized by Intel, just like Microsoft, and the most disadvantaged is China, a country that is suppressed by the United States using high technology.
Without Yun's Holdings and the Jiuyi Research Institute, Intel's people might be in front of the leaders of China's Ministry of Science and Technology or the Ministry of Electronics Industry, like people who can't harden the company, and say to the bigwigs with contempt: "Can you Chinese still produce computers without our processors?" ”
"Yun Fei, this matter ......" Xie Heping saw Yun Fei's face and knew that Yun Fei didn't attach much importance to the contract. They don't know what's going on here, but they don't want it to break down in the end.
"What's the matter? This matter, that's all, Mr. Yu, about Philip's equity, this involves the company's trade secrets, and I don't want you to do anything here that damages the company's image. Yun Fei saw that Yu Xiaogang was about to explain this matter, and said to him coldly.
Then he turned his head and said to Medek: "Mr. Medek, the rights and obligations of both parties have been written very clearly in this contract, if you do not believe in our respect for our laws, and need me to provide additional commitments and guarantees, there is no need for our negotiations to proceed at all." What's more, you're just a vice president at AMD. Why should I be required to make a commitment? Why should I be required to sign this contract? ”
After Yun Fei finished speaking, he picked up the water cup in front of him and drank the water.
The entire room fell silent.
Medek didn't expect why Yun Fei would be like this, according to the conditions of Yun Fei's plan, this shows that he still wants to reach this cooperation agreement very much. On this, Yun Fei's table is too weird. It was very strong at first, then it changed all of a sudden, and it started to be strong again at this critical moment.
I don't see what his purpose is.
Isn't it just to get him to sign a pledge not to use abnormal means to snatch equity?
This is also in Chinese mainland, if internationally, there is no need to worry about these at all.
Once Yun Fei finally does this, even if the U.S. government puts pressure on the Chinese government. The Chinese government will also use the excuse that this is a private business and that the government cannot interfere. And the Chinese government is going to build a lawsuit against them in China.
Such a lawsuit, even if they have sufficient evidence, it is estimated that there will be no result in ten years, eight years, or even thirty or fifty years.
Investing in China is a big political risk.
Seeing that the entire negotiation was deadlocked because of such a small issue, Xie Heping and Li Fei could only smile bitterly and speechlessly. Worried that the two sides would collapse like this, Xie Heping hurriedly played the role of an intermediary. The two sides take a break for a while, and the two sides communicate a little more, and then sit down to negotiate.
Both sides approved of his mention and entered their own lounges.
And Xie Heping also asked his secretary to quickly call Zhang Hu, who could persuade Yun Fei. Then he began to ask Yun Fei why he did this.
That's tens of billions of dollars. The investment of the entire Jiuyi Research Institute over the years is basically such a number, as long as you sign it, you can get it! Although, the Rongcheng government will levy a part of the tax on this huge amount......
"Mayor Xie. You still don't have to persuade the boss. We've already suffered a lot of damage in this matter. If it weren't for the intervention from above, they would have lost a billion dollars, and they wouldn't have wanted to get our technology at all......" Yu Xiaogang was worried that Xie Heping, who didn't know the inside story, would make Yun Fei completely rampage. Especially this old guy is actually embarrassed to tax their first technology patent income......
"Meddling up there?" Xie Heping and Li Fei were both stunned, and they suddenly became confused.
It felt like their brains were crashing like backward computer chips that couldn't handle it when they couldn't handle it -- they really couldn't figure out how the big guy above was involved.
"The matter of Philip is not our fault, this can be seen from the urgent visit to China by the Prime Minister of the Dutch Government and the President of Philip...... Eiffel," Yu Xiaogang told Xie Heping about what he had learned.
This kind of thing, they really shouldn't let it anymore.
Not even with the orders of the upper leadership.
A company cannot lose its most basic principles for the sake of profit, especially a person like Yun Fei, who is a soul force for the entire group company. Such a thing will definitely be reported in detail, at that time, how can Yun Fei maintain his strong image?
"Boss, I think if we push the other side like this again, it is very likely that this negotiation will be deadlocked again." After entering their lounge, Alina said to Medek with a frown. "Although we still haven't figured out why they lowered the conditions so much, and we know too little about what happened between them and Philip......
"That's what the board is asking for. Yun Fei has done this several times, and it is hard to guarantee that he will not do this in the future. We can't afford to lose the Chinese market, and who knows what will happen in the future? Medek also knows that neither side has a plan for such a partnership for long.
However, the market is unpredictable, and no one knows what will happen in the future.
AMD's profits have fallen sharply, and it has begun to become more and more weak under the pressure of Intel.
The Chinese market is their breakthrough point, and as long as they join forces with Yunshi Holdings to drive Intel out of China, they will be able to change the current situation. They don't need a large share of the Chinese market, as long as they have a market share of thirty percent, it is enough.
However, will Yun Fei agree?
"We should sue the board of directors for the current situation. There must be something wrong with the equity dispute between Philip and Yunshi Holdings. After the cooperation is reached, we should focus on building a business intelligence network for the Chinese market......" Alina was speechless about this.
They entered the Chinese market too late, and the company's investment in the Chinese market has been inadequate.
This leaves them without the intelligence they need to help them make judgments at critical moments.
"That's for sure. It's just ...... at the moment," Medek said with a frown.
"Boss, even if we don't believe Mr. Yun Fei, we can trust the Chinese government. The two leaders of Rongcheng are present, we can completely let them be notaries......" Zheng Qi, who had been just listening all the time and had no chance to speak at all, suddenly said.
Hearing Zheng Qi's words, Alina and Medek both looked at this Chinese girl as if they were staring at a monster.
Zheng Qi was a little unbearable and wanted to escape, but the girl said tremblingly: "Boss, I'm just an idea......"
"Zheng, your idea is really great!" Hearing Zheng Qi's words, Alina and Medek looked at each other, and when Zheng Qi was struggling with whether he would resign voluntarily or wait to be fired by Alina, Alina suddenly hugged her, kissed her on the face, and screamed happily.
This immediately made Zheng Qi dumbfounded.
"Zheng, your idea is really good, so that we don't have to worry about Yun Fei breaking the contract when we don't break the contract in the future. As long as we have the signature of the local magistrate, we can go to their government in the future, except for problems! Medek gave Zheng Qi a thumbs up.
It never occurred to them to have a Chinese government official act as a notary, after all, this is a commercial contract, and there is no precedent at all.
"Is this really possible?" Zheng Qi was a little confused.
She just said something nonsense, and she didn't think about it seriously at all.
"Of course, Alina, we should probably talk to the officials in Rongcheng now......" Medek said excitedly.
In this way, the impasse between the two sides is greatly broken, and they do not have to force Yun Fei to make a commitment, which is far more secure than the Chinese government's intangible promise. If Yun insists on tearing up the agreement, the Chinese government will not agree to it.
Because this is the Chinese government as a notary.
Once such a thing spreads, who would not worry that the interests of foreign investors entering China will not be protected? The government has no credibility, and who will invest in China?
Medek and Alina soon met Xie Heping and Zhang Hu, the vice governor in charge of the economy of Bashu Province.
"You mean to let our government be the notary of your cooperation? In this way, the contract will not have to be notarized by a notary office? Hearing Medek's mention, Xie Heping frowned.
There is no precedent for this at all.
"There's no precedent, but we can sign it. We should have full confidence in Yunfei. Besides, this can also show that our local government attaches great importance to such cooperation! Didn't the old man say that reform and opening up is just crossing the river by feeling the stones. Although we have been engaged in it for 20 years, we haven't crossed this river yet......" Zhang Hu knew Yun Fei's temper deeply.
He also knew that this was the best way to solve the problem at the moment.
In this way, there is no such thing as a shame, and the credibility of the government is much stronger than Yunfei's guarantee.
"For such a big project, we can do this in the future!" Li Fei also nodded in approval.
Anyway, as long as the funds are smashed into Rongcheng, it will be enough for them.
The more attention local governments have, the more foreign investment will come into their sphere of power. (To be continued......)
