The relevant news and discussions about the semiconductor industry have lasted for almost a month and are still high, but the negotiations between the two sides that the outside world wants to see the most have not been able to wait, both sides are holding back, and market investors are also holding on to the currency.

There is neither a posture to negotiate, nor the intention of stopping, and the game under the negotiation table is still fierce, which also affects the market sentiment to rise and fall.

A week later, the latest news finally came out.

The Cote d'Azur officially announced the formal establishment of the "Special Fund for Domestic Integrated Circuit Business", officially began to fulfill last year's commitments, and announced the first batch of semiconductor enterprises as many as 179 manufacturers of the application rules for capital loans.

Huaxin International received 1.52 billion US dollars in borrowing funds, equivalent to about 10 billion yuan, which is the largest loan amount among the first batch of 179 manufacturers, and Huaxin International is actually a competitor with Xiongxin Electronics.

The two sides had some entanglements before, and Huaxin International once wanted to sell itself, but Luo Sheng did not accept it.

And this act of benevolence and righteousness undoubtedly gives a clear signal to the market, even if it is a competitor of Xiongxin Electronics, there are difficulties not only will not fall into the ground, but also pull a hand, which is not only the embodiment of the invincible heart, but also the manifestation of the mind.

Hua Hong Semiconductor received 650 million US dollars in borrowing funds, equivalent to about 4.25 billion yuan, and the manufacturers that received the minimum borrowing funds also received 225 million yuan.

Luo Sheng promised that the Cote d'Azur can have a future, everyone has a future, and the manufacturer partners who follow him on the road of self-development will receive at least 750 million yuan of special borrowing funds from him in the next three years.

Some people are happy and some are worried, and people who have been in contact with ASML before have also applied for a fund loan, but the reply given is that the Cote d'Azur does not meet the minimum standards for its assessment.

So don't borrow.

……

"The Côte d'Azur's routine of playing with a carrot stick is so real that you can't even say anything." The head of Huahong Semiconductor can't help but feel a lot of emotion when looking at the semiconductor market trend at the moment.

This is a very simple trick that many people understand and use, but not everyone can use it well.

Seeing the current downward trend in the stock prices of those manufacturers who have contacted ASML, Mr. Wang knows that Huahong Semiconductor has bet on the right treasure, and most of those manufacturers are already half out, at least they can't enter the core team of the whole industry chain plan of the Cote d'Azur semiconductor, and the fact that they did not get the borrowing funds from Luo Sheng itself shows that it is the beginning of being marginalized.

With the help of ASML, a part of the potential risks was cleared almost at any cost, and Mr. Wang was also convinced of this risk control and management ability.

ASML's market capitalization is now only $35 billion, and its peak once rushed to $130 billion, and it took less than a month to fall to that number.

In terms of U.S. stocks, the technology semiconductor theme continues to be sluggish, as the industry as a whole remains full of uncertainty.

However, investors cannot always wait and see, and only when funds flow will they create more value, and the result is that foreign capital continues to go north and enter the big A for investment.

Lithography machines, consumer electronics, concepts belonging to the Cote d'Azur, concepts belonging to Bluestar Technology, concepts belonging to pure electric vehicles belonging to the Cote d'Azur, chip semiconductors and other themes have risen sharply.

Obviously, the capital has silently made a judgment, and they have proved that they are more optimistic about Luo Sheng with practical actions, so they are betting on him, at least hedging.

Shengfeng Capital also took this opportunity to start unwinding one after another, releasing liquidity for itself layer by layer, and the market was also well controlled, rising steadily rather than crazy.

If the money in Shengfeng Capital does not come out, in terms of the current market trend, I am afraid that the rhythm of crazy rise again, the technology bubble will begin to blow up again, and it will have to plunge again, Luo Sheng is also contributing his own strength within his ability, and try not to repeat the mistakes of his previous life again this year.

……

Wall Street, an analyst firm at Goldman Sachs' headquarters.

"There is a huge amount of money through the clearing institution of the HIIB investment bank into the Greater China region, the transaction is completed in the two major financial centers of London and Hong Kong, the amount of up to 45 billion US dollars, the inflow of the institution is the Cote d'Azur company's 'integrated circuit special fund'."

"At present, there is no plan for this fund to come out of Greater China, at least for five years."

"Whose money is this money for? Who is secretly supporting Luo Sheng? ”

"I don't know, it's under investigation, and the available data shows that they are all private equity institutional accounts and transactions are very frequent, and it is difficult to find out the specific identity of the behind-the-scenes financiers."

"Does he really want to privately raise $175 billion from overseas? Who's paying? Deutsche Investment Bank? J· P Morgan? UBS? Merrill? Or some sovereign funds? ”

"It can't be these institutions you mentioned, they, like Goldman Sachs, want to force Luo Sheng to let the Cote d'Azur go public, and it is impossible to give it a lot of financial support at this time, and the profit motive is not logical."

"We must find out the specific source of these funds, and we can't even find out who the opponent is, how can we fight the financial war?"

"Damn, why is there always someone sending him money? And once it is given away, it is hundreds of billions of dollars, is the dollar so worthless? ”

Not only Goldman Sachs is re-investigating, but also the top institutions on Wall Street, anyone who wants to profit from Luo Sheng is tracking, of course, including the North American side using the resources of NSA, CIA and other intelligence agencies to closely investigate.

……

Time passed day by day, and SIA still did not want to take the initiative to come to talk, so it was consumed, but the external media and the market were impatient, and they felt anxious for both sides.

In fact, both sides know that this technological war is very critical, and it seems to be calm, but in fact, they are actively preparing and playing behind the scenes.

Just entering the new year, as the "Integrated Circuit Business Special Fund" has successively issued the first batch of lending funds to major supply chain partners, the opponent has also responded with practical actions.

Another major breaking news has brought the ICT controversy, which is about to dissipate, back to the hot spot, and related news has once again dominated the headlines.

This news is that the Global SD Association and the WIFI Alliance suddenly announced one after another that they would kick out the Cote d'Azur, which means that the terminal equipment of the Cote d'Azur cannot use SD memory cards and cannot participate in the development of WIFI standards.

In other words, it will be difficult for the three major terminal businesses of the Cote d'Azur, including Azure smartphones, ieP tablets, and ACC game consoles, to supply the market after the existing inventory is exhausted.

Far from showing signs of easing, this battle for technology has intensified.

Negotiation?

It doesn't exist, the result has not yet been determined under the negotiating table, and it has even just begun.

……

On January 7, an A380 special plane landed smoothly at the newly built international airport in Sioux City, this passenger plane is an asset of the Côte d'Azur company, and it is also a signal of the same special plane as Luo Sheng.

The passenger plane carrying No. 422 people walked out of the terminal in unison, and what is even more striking is that about 65% of the people are all European faces, all engineers from Europe, and they can be regarded as employees of the Cote d'Azur.

The leader is a German, and in him you can see a rigorous style that is unique to Germans.

At the terminal, Luo Sheng with several assistants, including An Qingxue, and some bodyguards were waiting quietly outside the terminal, a business car and seven buses were waiting for a long time, obviously to receive important people.

The media didn't know that he appeared on this occasion, but some people who ate melons were afraid that the picture was uploaded to the Internet, and it has begun to spread.

The last person to enjoy this kind of treatment was Dr. Ernst Wenneck, the current director of the "Lingnan P4 Laboratory", who was personally greeted at the terminal when he decided to join Luo Sheng's life science fund team.

"Professor Haas, you've finally moved the entire company over." When Luo Sheng saw the Germans led by him, he immediately stepped forward with a smile, and the two sides shook hands with each other.

"I am very disappointed with the current situation in Europe, whether it is the capital, the industry or the authorities, it is really terrible, very frustrated, I hope my decision is not wrong." Hyland Haas said with a wry smile.

Luo Sheng didn't learn German, and Hyland Haas didn't know Chinese, but that didn't stop the two sides from communicating with each other, because they both spoke English.

In public in China, even if he is facing all foreigners, Luo Sheng always insists on speaking his native language and listening to the translator by himself, but there is no need to do this in private, it seems hypocritical, and it has the taste of deliberately stating his position and identity to distinguish himself from the other party.

Of course Luo Sheng wouldn't do such a stupid thing, Hyland Haas dragged his family to join him today, so he naturally had to show a sense of intimacy.

Professor Hyland Haas, a German physicist and former head of the Department of Mobile Communications at the University of Edinburgh's School of Communications, decided to start a technology start-up in early 2012.

However, local capital is not optimistic, and some old technology giants in Europe do not give face, and even deliberately suppress them, because it will affect their core business, which is a typical conservative idea, resulting in Hyland Haas not being able to raise money, and the company was once on the verge of bankruptcy and was about to be unable to operate.

Eventually, having to seek the support of overseas capital, Hyland Haas was lucky enough to meet the strategic investment department of the Cote d'Azur when the company was on the verge of bankruptcy, and was very fond of the technology he was researching.

On the same day alone, Hyland received $15 million in angel round financing from the Cote d'Azur, and in the following three years, the Cote d'Azur still exclusively contracted his company's three rounds of A, B, and C financing, with a Series A financing of $50 million, a Series B financing of $80 million, and a Series C financing of $200 million last year.

It's almost burned out.

It's just that there is a lot of money, and it is smashed willfully.

After being "raised" by the capital of the Cote d'Azur, Hyland Haas no longer worries about funds and began to devote himself to the development process.

"I already know about the WIFI Alliance, they have indeed lost their minds, in the rejection of technological progress, you will win the final victory," Hyland Haas said with a regretful face, in fact, the heart is happy, the WIFI Alliance's divine assistance is equivalent to the fact that the technology he is now working on is further enhanced here in the parent company Cote d'Azur, and the Cote d'Azur will accelerate the commercial progress of its technology.

Luo Sheng smiled: "So it's time for you to appear on the stage below, you are my secret weapon, I assure you Professor Hyland, no matter whether the WIFI Alliance finally recovers as before, I will apply your technology on a large scale and vigorously promote it, this is part of our agreement." ”

Hyland nodded: "I believe." ”

Luo Sheng immediately made a gesture of invitation and said, "This is not the place to talk, if we don't leave, we will be surrounded by reporters." ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, and Hyland Haas said, "I'm looking forward to this moment." ”

Luo Sheng turned to look at the core backbone employees brought by Hyland Haas, these people were originally unwilling to go all the way to China to work far away from Europe, and they would always naturally resist going to an unfamiliar environment.

But there is no way, the owner gives too much.

Luo Sheng looked at them and laughed loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to China." ”
