Chapter 871: Now There Is
Speaking of HiSilicon, its predecessor can be traced back to 1991 Huawei ASIC Design Center, which has been one of the basic plates of Huawei since its establishment, and is also a chess piece of the most important part of Huawei in the layout of the entire electronics industry chain.
Although most people have the impression that HiSilicon is a mobile phone chip supplier to Huawei mobile phones, in fact, HiSilicon's business is not limited to mobile phone chips.
To be precise, Huawei HiSilicon provides chip solutions in the fields of digital home, communication and wireless terminals. In layman's terms, it means mobile phone chips, mobile communication system equipment chips, transmission network equipment chips, home digital equipment chips, etc. Even in the field of security prevention and control, its market share has reached a terrifying 90% after ten years of operation.
Due to Warwick's absolute control over HiSilicon, it can basically be said that HiSilicon is Warwick, Warwick is HiSilicon, and you have me, I have you, and the two are inseparable.
If Star Technology is allowed to enter HiSilicon, it means that Huawei may lose its absolute control of HiSilicon.
This is unacceptable to Wang Zhengfei.
However......
For HiSilicon, Star Technology's technology is also indispensable.
Therefore, after listening to Lu Zhou's request, a trace of solemnity suddenly appeared on Wang Zhengfei's face, and he sat there without saying a word, as if he was in deep thought.
Lu Zhou was not in a hurry, and after saying his request, he picked up the teacup and took a sip of hot tea, moistening his throat that was a little dry.
At the same time, he also took advantage of this gap to observe Wang Zhengfei who had fallen silent a few times with interest, trying to see something from his face.
But it's a pity that this Mr. Wang is an old man who has been in the mall for a long time, and Lu Zhou's Taoism can not see anything except that he doesn't speak because he is asleep.
emmm……
Is it too much to ask for yourself?
Although he and his senior sister were angry before he came, and she helped to advise on the equity ratio and technical cooperation, but to be honest, Lu Zhou, who has no negotiation experience, can't hold himself up, is he raising the requirements too high as soon as he comes up?
Thinking of this, Lu Zhou also muttered a little in his heart.
Looking at Mr. Wang's expression, this matter probably can't be done.
If it really doesn't work, in fact, purple light is also a suitable backup option. Although this company is mainly engaged in the supply of low-end chips, unlike HiSilicon, which is backed by Warwick, a giant located in the downstream of the industrial chain, it ...... Seems to be okay too?
Thinking of this, Lu Zhou spoke.
"Otherwise, this topic will come here first, Mr. Wang can go back and think about it before replying, anyway, I didn't bring the contract today, you must not be prepared, the specific agreement still has to be discussed in a more formal occasion."
With a slight loosening of his shoulders, Mr. Wang shook his head.
"No need."
Hearing this, Lu Zhou breathed a sigh of relief.
Although no cooperation was reached, the negotiations were finally over.
To be honest, he's really not very good at these things.
The next negotiation with Ziguang Group will be handed over to the senior sister to deal with.
“…… There's no need to go back and think about it, the things that should be considered have already been considered. I believe in my own vision and in Academician Lu's knowledge, and I will not be disappointed. ”
After saying that, Wang Zhengfei stood up, stretched out his right hand to Lu Zhou with a smile, and said in a solemn tone, "...... On behalf of the President of Huawei Group, I accept your proposal. I hope we can work together in the new era of carbon-based chips to achieve greater brilliance! ”
Lu Zhou: "......?" ”
What does this mean......
Agreed?
……
Although the intention of cooperation is preliminarily reached, this kind of major event involving equity change is not something that Wang Zhengfei can decide alone.
In particular, Star Technology plans to invest in HiSilicon, and HiSilicon is the basic market of Warwick. As is customary, he will have to hold a board meeting when he returns and ask the other board members for their opinions, and it is unclear whether he can convince the board to nod.
Especially now because of the confidentiality treaty, many things cannot be put on the table.
He is still worried about how to convince several other major shareholders in the company without revealing the carbon-based chip technology.
Star Technology can do without Warwick, they have many options besides Warwick. However, if Huawei wants to become the hegemon in the field of electronics industry in the new era, Star Technology is indispensable......
Until the beginning of dinner, Lu Zhou didn't come back to his senses for a while.
He really couldn't figure out how he persuaded this Boss Wang.
No, it doesn't seem to convince this link at all, and the other party seems to have only hesitated for a few minutes after hearing the conditions he proposed, and then made a decision.
Don't......
Am I a business wizard who has been delayed by math?
Thinking of this, Lu Zhou suddenly smiled a little embarrassed.
If it weren't for this, he wouldn't even realize that he was so awesome......
After dinner, Wang Zhengfei said goodbye to Lu Zhou and got into the black car parked in front of the hotel.
The executives who sat in the back row with Mr. Wang and came to Jinling with him couldn't help but ask.
“…… Boss, is it really appropriate for us to give them absolute control of HiSilicon? ”
The man sitting next to him was a very important executive in the management of Warwick HiSilicon. He was also involved in the previous closed-door meeting held in Beijing.
It is precisely because of this that he dares to discuss this matter with him here.
Although he has great respect for Mr. Wang, he has to say that he is opposed to letting Star Technology take a stake in HiSilicon. HiSilicon is the basic disk of Warwick, and there is no room for outsiders to interfere with it.
What's more, the share demanded by Star Technology is not small......
Glancing at the executive, Wang Zhengfei smiled and asked.
"Do you have a project team working on the research and development of carbon-based chips?"
Wang Zhengfei's words made the executive fall silent.
Although HiSilicon also has research projects on new semiconductor materials, it did not choose graphene as the direction for research, but chose molybdenum disulfide, which is now favored by the international academic and industrial circles.
However, these studies are only to avoid being thrown off by foreign competitors and to lay out in this field in advance. In the case that many key issues have not been solved, I am afraid that if we want to replace silicon as the main material of chips through materials such as molybdenum disulfide, I am afraid that we do not know how many decades to wait.
Reluctant to admit it, the executive struggled to speak.
“…… No. ”
Looking at the embarrassed expression on the executive's face, Wang Zhengfei didn't blame him, just smiled faintly and said.
"Now there is."
Executive: "......"
