"It's a great movie, and it deserves the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language even if it doesn't need any publicity!" After watching the movie, Harvey Waynes took the initiative to find Jia Yapeng and express his feelings.

"Then can I not ask Mr. Waynes to help me with the publicity?" Jia Yapeng couldn't help but laugh.

"Well, of course not!" Harvey Waynes smiled awkwardly, "There is still some necessary publicity, otherwise others will publicize more, and it will still have an impact." ”

"Then please ask Mr. to make a price, how much publicity money is needed?" Jia Yapeng said with a smile.

"That's about $300,000!" Harvey Waynes Road.

"No problem!" Boss Jia nodded, he was originally ready for 1 million US dollars, but now it is only 300,000, and he feels that he has made a lot of money.

"Actually, I didn't need so much, but I heard that "The Lover of Four Thousand Gold" seems to be asking someone to promote it, which is a bit troublesome!" Harvey Waynes said to Jia Yapeng, and then added, "Mr. Jia, if there is an accident at that time, this publicity fee has already been spent and cannot be returned." ”

"Of course!" Jia Yapeng nodded, Harvey Waynes breathed a sigh of relief this time, and left with the check for $300,000 given by Jia Yapeng.

"Is this the darkness of Hollywood?" Ivanka Ivana, who witnessed all this throughout the process, said a little lukewarmly.

"How can this be considered darkness?" Boss Jia smiled slightly, "If such an excellent film can't win awards like Farewell My Concubine, that's the real regret and darkness"

"But the prize should be won by one's own ability, not by money!" I can't see that the current Ivanka Ivana still has such a lost social morality in her heart, so she insisted on saying it a little.

"If this is an absolutely fair award, then naturally these methods should not be used!" Jia Yapeng nodded and said, "But this review itself is already unfair, so we must use some small means." Otherwise, two people will duel, the opponent will have a gun in his hand, and we still have a sword in our hands, and this duel will already be lost without fighting! ”

"Believe it or not, if I hadn't paid this money this time, it would have been "The Lover of Four Thousand Gold" who would have won the Best Foreign Language Film award, not "Farewell My Concubine," Jia Yapeng said.

"Why are you so sure?" Ivanka Ivana asked curiously.

"Because I work in Huaxia, I am a fortune teller!" Boss Jia said with a smile, and Ivanka Ivana nodded blankly, because there is no word fortune teller in English, and Boss Jia translated it as a prophet by the way, which made Ivanka Ivana very puzzled, could it be that this Boss Jia is still a loyal disciple!

"Miss Ivanka, would you like to sit in my room?" Boss Jia gave a very obvious hint, but unfortunately, Ivanka Ivana had no interest in it, and waved goodbye to Boss Jia directly, so that Boss Jia shook his head and could only sleep alone for one night.

Boss Jia didn't know that at this time, Qualcomm's board of directors had already had a heated discussion around the acquisition letter issued by Boss Jia.

At the beginning of its establishment, Qualcomm was composed of 7 scientists in the field of communications, who firmly believed that the future communication industry can bloom with unprecedented brilliance, and whoever can master communication technology can master the future.

So these 7 scientists got together and created Qualcomm in 1986, and later Qualcomm went public in 1991.

However, the majority of the shares are still concentrated in the hands of a few forces.

Four of the seven scientists who founded the company still hold a significant initial stake in Qualcomm Group: current High School Group Chairman Owen Jacob, Franklin Antonio, Andrew Cohen, and Harvey White.

The remaining three scientists either withdrew or sold their shares in large quantities, so there are only four scientists left who still own a large stake in Qualcomm.

In addition, there are three forces, two of which are large investment funds, and they have invested millions of dollars in Qualcomm in both angel round investment and Series A investment, so they also own a large number of shares.

The remaining one is actually an investment company, but this investment company is very familiar to all Chinese people, because this company is called SoftBank Group, and the chairman is called Son Masayoshi.

That's right, the same businessman who once invested in both Tencent and Alibaba, and now, he is also a major shareholder of Qualcomm Group.

The reason why Qualcomm Group immediately convened a board meeting to discuss this sudden investor as soon as it received this acquisition letter is because Qualcomm's capital chain is about to be unable to hold on.

At this time, it is an important period of the turning point of Qualcomm's fate, because of Qualcomm's CDMA technology, which is now facing a situation where it is facing a wall everywhere.

CDMA technology, the Chinese name is code multi-address technology, as for the specific explanation is very long, I believe everyone is not interested in seeing.

To put it simply, CDMA technology is one of the 2G technologies, that is, the rules and standards of the second generation of mobile phone communication technology.

The first generation of mobile phone communication technology, that is, the technology used by Big Brother, is actually all one, that is, analog communication technology, and all mobile phone manufacturers use the same communication technology, which is nothing to say.

However, many communication manufacturers have realized that the first generation of mobile phone communication technology is about to become obsolete, and the world is about to usher in the second generation of mobile phone communication with stronger communication capabilities.

However, unlike the dominance of the first generation of communication technology, there are many manufacturers of the second generation of communication technology that have developed different standards and technologies, and the main technologies are currently divided into 5 types, namely GSM, IDEN, IS-136, CDMA, and PDC.

All in all, these 5 technologies are in the hands of different manufacturers, and each manufacturer wants to promote this technology into a standard technology used by all mobile phone manufacturers in the world, because in this way, even if the R&D company does nothing, it can eat a big fat man just by lying down and eating patents.

Among them, CDMA technology belongs to Qualcomm.

However, compared with the other 5 manufacturers, Qualcomm is the weakest, so even if their CDMA technology was first proposed and developed as early as 1986, it was not until February this year that it was recognized by the United States Telecommunications Industry Association and became one of the five standards, but it was the last of the five standards to be approved.

While other companies have already experimented with their own technologies in real scenarios, Qualcomm's technology only exists in the laboratory.

This creates great risk and uncertainty for Qualcomm investors.

If the CDMA technology development fails and cannot occupy the market, then investors will suffer huge losses of hundreds of millions of dollars, and what is even worse is that now Qualcomm has spent a huge amount of money because of a large number of research and development, as well as trying to build the first CDMA network experimental area in Hong Kong, and the balance on the books is less than 5 million US dollars, which is not enough to pay the company three months' salary.

At this time, Qualcomm's board of directors was meeting every day, hoping that the major directors would increase their investment, but all the directors were very hesitant.

It's not that they don't have money, but if the money is thrown in, and the technical experiment fails, or is not recognized by the market, it is to put out the fire with salary.

So when these directors saw that someone was willing to buy Qualcomm's shares, these directors instantly felt pardoned and held a meeting on the spot to discuss whether to sell the shares and how much to sell.
