Chapter 234: Prepare with both hands
Fang Ping raised his eyebrows and said in surprise: "But what? ”
"But through my understanding, there is a big gap between BOE's technical strength and foreign companies!"
Tang Jun said helplessly: "Even if we reach a joint venture agreement, it is still unknown whether we can overcome the technical difficulties in the end." ”
"How big?" Fang Ping asked rhetorically.
Tang Jun took the wording: "Describe it like this! If the technology of foreign companies has reached 3, then BOE's technology is still trying to break through 1. ”
"Such a big gap?" Fang Ping was a little surprised.
His knowledge of BOE is limited to the information obtained on the Internet in later generations.
That's it, or because BOE is a listed company, he knows it by studying stocks in order to speculate on stocks.
I really don't know the specific technical strength of BOE at this time.
If BOE is really as Tang Jun said, then the first generation of smart phones of Xingchen Technology will be listed in July and August, I am afraid it will be a bubble.
From this, Fang Ping also understood why Tang Jun said that there were some things that he needed to make his own decision.
It seems that he has doubts about his stake in BOE.
Or rather, the faith is not so strong.
Sure enough, after Tang Jun nodded, Yu Feng changed his mind and said: "Mr. Fang, I think the matter of taking a stake in BOE should be temporarily delayed." At present, according to the needs of the company, it is still necessary to cooperate with foreign companies. ”
"Only in this way can we ensure that Xingchen Technology is expected to launch the first generation of smartphones in July and August!"
"No, it went according to the original plan!" Fang Ping sighed.
To be honest, he also knew that Tang Jun's proposal was right.
But think about the future generations, those companies whose technology is not in their own hands and are bullied.
He doesn't want Xingchen Technology, or even his own company, to have such a day.
In order to cope with this day, there are things that are not beneficial for the present and must be done.
Tang Jun frowned, and when he was about to speak, Fang Ping added: "However, cooperation with foreign companies must also be done together!" ”
"We can't delay our strategic plan because of the lack of smart screens on mobile phones."
"Mr. Fang, if you do this, the investment will be big!" Tang Jun just breathed a sigh of relief and lifted this breath again.
He didn't understand why Fang Ping stubbornly wanted to invest in BOE, no, to be precise, to support the domestic supply chain.
And he also vaguely felt that Fang Ping naturally had a kind of resistance to foreign companies, as if he was worried about something.
And he didn't find anything bad about foreign companies, on the contrary, many foreign companies wanted to cooperate with Huaguo companies. Even the production bases of many companies have been relocated to China.
This puzzled him.
Fang Ping shook his head: "If you invest bigger, you will invest bigger." But in the future, no matter how big the investment is, it must be done. ”
"Technology, in your own hands, is the last word!"
"Mr. Fang, I know what you mean, and I also know the advantages of mastering technology. But I always feel that Mr. Fang is doing these things as if you are preparing for something! Tang Jun glanced at Fang Ping deeply, hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help but say.
Fang Ping was silent for a moment, and then asked rhetorically: "Do you think that in the future, there will be foreign companies stuck in our necks?" ”
"How is that possible! No way! Tang Jun shook his head.
Just kidding, now foreign countries are very optimistic about the domestic economic situation, and almost slightly larger companies are coming to invest in China and seize market share.
Stuck our necks with technology, they are afraid that they want to give up such a large domestic market.
Fang Ping smiled bitterly: "Yes! It doesn't seem possible, but actually..."
"Mr. Fang, are you too worried? I think that with such a large market in our country, it is impossible for companies to ignore it in any country. How could such a thing happen? Tang Jun raised his eyebrows and said tentatively.
Well, that's when you don't know the pace of development in our country.
After a decade or so, you will find that our country's total economic output is about to reach the first place in the world.
You wouldn't think so!
Fang Ping touched his nose, not wanting to dwell on this issue, so he changed the topic and said, "Okay, don't talk about it." Anyway, let's prepare for everything, and that's it! ”
"Since Mr. Fang said so, then I will do as you instructed, and while signing with BOE, I will look for a supply company abroad!"
Tang Jun coughed dryly: "It's just..."
"Just what?" Fang Ping said in amazement.
Tang Jun smiled: "Just make these preparations, I'm afraid you need to continue to invest." ”
"Uh, two billion dollars, spent?" Fang Ping's eyes widened.
He knew that technology would burn money, but he didn't expect it to be so expensive.
It was only a few years ago that Xingchen Technology invested two billion US dollars, and it has only been less than two months.
Actually came to reach out and ask for money again!
Tang Jun hurriedly said: "Mr. Fang, you misunderstood, it's not that the money has been spent." Just do what you say, Mr. Fang, two billion US dollars may not be enough. ”
"Not to mention the continuous investment, the money on establishing research centers around the world and developing chips. It is to invest in BOE, according to the current negotiations, it will cost 200 million US dollars to obtain 30% of BOE's shares. ”
"Not to mention going abroad to find new supply companies to work with."
"You speak, can you not gasp for breath!"
Fang Ping was speechless and said, "I thought that it would take more than two months for two billion US dollars!" ”
"Blame me, blame me for not making it clear!" Tang Jun said with some embarrassment.
Fang Ping waved his hand: "Okay, it's still the old rules, I'll figure out how to deal with money!" ”
He also knows that although Xingchen Technology has not spent two billion US dollars now, it is really prepared according to the formula, investment on both sides, and investment in R&D projects such as chips.
Two billion US dollars, which seems like a lot, can't help but burn money.
"Yes, Mr. Fang, do you want to participate in the signing ceremony of the BOE shareholding?" Tang Jun nodded, suddenly remembered something, and asked again.
Fang Ping groaned, "When?" ”
"According to the current progress of the negotiations, there will be about five days left, and the talks will be completed." Tang Jun said busily.
Fang Ping thought for a while: "When the time comes, you call Xiaoxiao, and I'll make a decision based on the schedule!" ”
"Okay, Mr. Fang!" Tang Jun nodded.
Later, Fang Ping and Tang Jun learned about the development of Xingchen Technology, and learned that Xingchen Technology has established more than ten research centers around the world, recruiting thousands of scientists of all kinds to carry out related research work.
In addition, it also cooperates with some of the world's top universities to support the research of scientists in mathematics, physics and chemistry.
It can be said that the development of Xingchen Technology is carried out in accordance with Fang Ping's instructions.
This made Fang Ping understand the direction of the company's burning money, and he was also satisfied with Tang Jun's execution.
After learning about Xingchen Technology, Fang Ping and Tang Jun exchanged pleasantries, and then left the office area of Xingchen Technology and went to the office area of the investment company.
He's got to prepare for the money again!
