Chapter 225: The Giants Meeting of Wall Street
Medico, Wall Street.
At this time, in a certain company's building, a huge conference room was filled with more than 40 people with the temperament of a big boss.
If a journalist comes here, they will be amazed that everyone here is the CEO or deputy CEO of a major company.
Everyone here can make a huge move in the industry, such as Chen Damou, the CEO of TSMC who is sitting at the end of the crowd at this time.
Although Chen Damou is only sitting at the bottom of the seat, he really wants to do something, which can cause huge movements in the entire chip foundry industry.
The companies behind everyone here are big companies, and almost all of them are leading companies from the electronics industry.
At this time, they came together, and a huge event in the electronics industry circle was about to break out.
"It's a pleasure to be here, I'm the moderator of this meeting, Chambers, and I'm also the CEO and president of Cisco."
At this time, a middle-aged foreigner with a slightly convex head and a slightly curly hairstyle smiled and stood up to greet everyone at the scene.
"Mr. Chambers, it's a pleasure to meet you."
"Good morning, Mr. Chambers, I have a drink."
"Mr. Chambers ......"
When Chambers finished speaking, many people in the audience also greeted him.
It seems that this guy's popularity is quite good, and I don't know if it's because of his popularity, or because he has created historical achievements.
This guy is not simple, he has the title of "the world's first person in mergers and acquisitions".
"The world's first person in mergers and acquisitions", as the name suggests, likes to make the company grow rapidly through mergers and acquisitions.
Through mergers and acquisitions, this guy has successfully transformed Sike from a router company to the world's largest router Internet communication equipment company.
Finally, in 2000, the company became the world's largest company by market capitalization!
Before the first dot-com bubble, before 2000, the company's market capitalization peaked at $540 billion!
$540 billion!
This terrifying market value far surpasses that of Moto Gongla, and also surpasses Intel, surpasses Wei Soft, and tramples other international companies under their feet.
And the reason why Sike can create such a miracle is the business philosophy that Chambers has pursued all his life.
"Either you don't do it, or you do it first or second!"
It is in line with this philosophy that since he became the CEO of Cico, he has acquired hundreds of companies in just a few years through crazy mergers and acquisitions.
Through the acquisition of hundreds of companies, the company has successfully grasped the huge patents in the field of router and Internet communication, and has obtained an almost monopoly position in the market!
And all these achievements are the merits of Chambers, who has a modest face and looks similar to that of an ordinary businessman!
So that's why he's so popular.
"Okay, okay, but for now, let's get to the bottom of the meeting.
Everyone must know what this meeting is, and the thing to be discussed this time is about Hantang Technology. ”
Naturally, it is impossible for a company to sit in the chair position for such an important meeting, but to take turns.
This time it happened to be the turn of Sike, so at this time, Chambers was urging everyone to hurry up and get into the topic.
"Hantang Technology, this guy is really amazing about this company."
"Not only is the company amazing, I think the real horror is Lin Xuan, the boss of this company.
This guy is simply a real-life version of Iron Man, with his existence, I am afraid that even the 45nm process chip process is just around the corner.
After all, they have successfully developed lithography machines, and the remaining core equipment such as etching machines and chemical deposition equipment are not far away. ”
When it came to Hantang Technology, the people at the scene whispered to each other.
Chambers, as the moderator of the meeting, shrugged his shoulders and said nothing, and when the discussion had calmed down a bit, he continued:
"Last time, on whether to further suppress Hantang Technology, we finally accounted for the majority of negative votes, so that the suppression of Hantang Technology ended without a hitch.
This time, I propose to continue to vote and vote on whether to implement stronger and harsher suppression of Hantang Technology! ”
"This ......"
Hearing the words of Chambers, the president of Siko, many people at the scene who had voted against each other last time looked at each other with hesitation in their eyes.
The decision has not been made for more than a month, and the results are going to be repeated? Isn't that a bit of a slap in their own face?
But that Hantang technology is indeed becoming more and more powerful with the passage of time, and it is becoming more and more difficult to contain.
If this situation is not suppressed more brutally, then it will not be suppressed even if you want to suppress it in the future.
However, some people felt that it was useless to carry out more brutal suppression, so he asked curiously:
"I don't know how you want to suppress it? People can now produce their own mobile phone chips, and there is no room for meddlers in the field of low-end mobile phone chips.
As for the mid-to-high-end mobile phone chips, it may not take a few months for them to successfully develop other core equipment for the 45nm process process, and then solve the problem of mid-to-high chips by themselves.
As for the field of mobile phone foundry, we have no way for other mobile phones to find Hantang Technology to OEM mobile phones, so how to suppress Hantang Technology in this case? ”
Looking at the Texas Instruments boss who asked questions, the people at the scene fell silent.
At present, many things can be produced and sold by Hantang Technology, and it is very difficult for them to interrupt the capital chain of Hantang Technology.
But at this time, Chen Damou of TSMC suddenly said:
"In fact, it is very simple to suppress Hantang Technology and break the capital chain of Hantang Technology."
“?”
Hearing Chen Damou's words, many people at the scene looked at Chen Damou in surprise, I don't know why Chen Damou said that?
And the other party also called this matter very simple, which surprised them, after all, they were having a headache.
"WIPI wireless LAN standard l standard!"
Chen Damou slowly explained the reason why he thought this matter was very simple.
In an instant, the eyes of many CEOs of the communications industry at the scene lit up, including Paul Odeus, the president of Intel!
"The Sword Comes"
Intel is an important core member of the WiFi Alliance and one of the developers of WiFi standards.
Among them, WiFi can be popular all over the world, which is actually inseparable from Intel's strong support in recent years.
It is precisely because of Intel's strong support in the field of computers that WiFi has entered the notebook and even into the desktop.
So WiFi is becoming well-known with Intel's strong recommendation.
At this time, Chen Damou mentioned the WIPI wireless LAN standard, and many CEOs in the communication industry on the scene were dazzled.
This is indeed a breakthrough point!
What the so-called WIPI wireless LAN standard is, many people in the communications industry on the scene are clear.
The so-called WIPI wireless LAN standard is the fundamental core technology of WiFi technology, and the underlying architecture of many WIPI standards still uses WiFi standard technology.
So this is also the reason why the router in Daxia can naturally support mobile phones that use WiFi.
Because the underlying technology is the same, but the encryption standard is a little different.
This difference can be solved at the level of software simulation!
Therefore, although WIPI and WIFI seem to be two standards, the so-called WIPI wireless LAN standard is the WiFi standard.
This has led to the fact that Hantang Technology has seriously infringed the WiFi standard patent in fact!
So WIPI is really a great breakthrough!
"It's worthy of being a Great Xia person!"
At this time, the president of the company said with a smile.
In this regard, Chambers, the president of Sike Company, also said with a smile:
"Yes, the WIPI wireless LAN standard is accurate and it is really a breakthrough, and we were afraid of the attitude of Daxia before.
But there is no need to care about it now, because the threat of Hantang Technology is already too great, and we don't care about how Daxia will react. ”
At this time, Chen Damou, the president of TSMC, looked at the people at the scene and said:
"You don't have to worry about Da Xia's reaction at all, because I know Da Xia, as long as our actions are legal and compliant, you don't have to worry at all.
We can make a big deal about WIPI, and we have to make it as big as possible, so that they don't dare to really do it. ”
Seeing his convincing appearance, many people at the scene couldn't help but believe it.
"Next, let's crack down on Hantang Technology through the WiFi Alliance, and I suggest that it's time for a more brutal crackdown.
We must interrupt the capital chain of Hantang Technology, and we can't let it have enough funds to conquer the etching machine of the 45nm process process, and Daxia will master the production of 45nm chips, which is a disaster for the global electronics industry......"
"We at Cisco agree."
Chambers, the president of Siko, nodded slightly.
"We agree with Botong."
Botong, the second-largest telecommunications company in Medico, also agreed.
The company is a key member of the WiFi standards setters and has a position on a par with Intel in the WiFi Alliance.
"We, Langxun, also agree."
Lang Xun, a giant in the telecommunications industry, also made a decision to agree.
"We at Texas Instruments also agree."
"We agree with the draft." ……
At this time, a number of members involved in the communication field or the WiFi standard setter alliance have agreed to suppress Hantang Technology more severely, which means that the WiFi Alliance has the will at this moment.
This will is to stop Hantang Technology's infringement of WiFi and sue Hantang Technology!
Once this thing is successful, it will definitely prevent Hantang Technology's low-end chips from being exported overseas.
It's hard to say over there in Daxia, but overseas is the world of their international companies.
As long as they sue the WIPI wireless LAN standard, and then the patent lawsuit is successful, the patent lawsuit finds that WIPI has infringed the WIFI Alliance patent.
Then they would be able to prevent WIPI-enabled devices from being marketed abroad and pay huge damages to the WIFI Alliance.
As for Lin Xuan's compensation for the loss of patent infringement, this is actually not a big problem, if Lin Xuan insists on refusing to compensate for the infringement loss.
The Dali Temple of the Meidi Kingdom can announce the fine and seizure of Hantang Technology's overseas assets.
In addition, from now on, Hantang Technology's products don't have to think about going to sea.
Because after the goods of Hantang Technology go to sea, major companies can report them directly, and then the Dali Temple of the American Empire can justifiably seize and auction the goods belonging to Hantang Technology.
After all, this is the asset of Hantang Technology!
