Guo Wanhua thinks that Li Yunhai can make a profit by speculating on his own stocks, but it is not impossible to operate.

After all, this year, the Securities Regulatory Commission in Xiangjiang has not yet been established.

Moreover, Intel's attack on Sihai Group is not something that Li Yunhai can control, it belongs to the force majeure of the outside world.

Li Yunhai just took advantage of an information gap, sold the stocks in his hand first, and then bought them back after the stock price fell.

He can make billions of Hong Kong dollars casually, even if someone questions it, it can only be said that his vision is too poisonous and he sees the right time.

But Li Yunhai would not do this. When Xiangjiang's stock price was in turmoil last year, Li Yunhai did not arbitrage in this way. Because at the end of the day, this kind of behavior is to manipulate the stock price.

Stock price manipulation is not necessarily an external institution, but may also be the company's internal management personnel, major shareholders, invisible shareholders, individuals, concentrated capital advantages, internal information advantages, management advantages, or other investors do not have special conditions, to achieve sustainable changes in stock prices, that is all stock price manipulation.

Guo Wanhua held Li Yunhai's hand and said anxiously: "Yunhai, we have no choice but to do this!" The orders we received this year have not yet been completed, and if they really can't be delivered, then the PC orders we received from the CES electronics show and the two dealer conferences will not be completed! Not only can't you make money, but you also have to lose money! What are you going to pay for? ”

Li Yunhai shook his head calmly, and said resolutely with a face full of determination: "It's a big deal, I'll lose all my net worth!" I still went back to Xizhou to open a repair shop. ”

Guo Wanhua knew that she couldn't convince Li Yunhai, and said, "Then let's find a way to redeem it first!" Let's hope Intel won't wipe us out. ”

However, this is absolutely wishful thinking, Intel even dares to sue AMD, and will it let go of the Chinese Sihai Group?

Li Yunhai contacted Shen Xiulan and asked how many PC orders had not yet been delivered?

Shen Xiulan didn't know that such a big thing had happened, thinking that it was a normal query, so she counted it and told Li Yunhai: "There are 120,000 alien computers and 80,000 Longteng PCs." ”

A total of 200,000 computers!

That's 200,000 chips!

This batch of goods should have been the sales record of Sihai Group this year!

If Sihai Group can buy a few months, it will definitely be able to complete these orders.

But time doesn't matter, and Intel simply doesn't give licensors any buffer time.

Since the launch of 386, Intel has turned losses into profits, with an annual revenue capacity of more than $3 billion, and huge profits, making Intel only go further and further on the road of dictatorship.

If this batch of chips can be purchased from Intel, then Sihai Group can still maintain these orders, but the big deal is that it will not make money.

What if the order is scheduled for a few months from now? Then Li Yunhai can only return all the money received to the buyer, and also compensate for the losses caused by these orders to the buyer.

Sihai Group lost billions, not to mention, but also to pay billions!

Then Li Yunhai really has to lose all the money he has earned in the past few years.

His major projects in Xizhou, Xiangjiang, Beijin and other places will also be suspended due to lack of funds.

Li Yunhai didn't dare to imagine how serious this consequence was!

Lin Xiaofeng, who was far away in the United States, flew to Intel's headquarters the next day for negotiations.

In fact, before Sihai Group invited MJ to shoot advertisements and hold the Xiangjiang Global Distributor Conference, Intel did not pay attention to this small company.

It's like smuggling and copying, when you make a small fuss, no one knows about your existence and doesn't bother to care about you. But once you make a big fuss, you will immediately be focused on, especially hard!

Intel is fighting a lawsuit with AMD, and at the same time, it is also cutting the authorization of other companies, just as soon as MJ's commercial film came out, it was targeted by their people, and immediately contacted the newly established branch of Sihai Group in New York, asking Sihai Group to stop producing X86 chips.

Lin Xiaofeng found Intel to negotiate, but the result was very bad.

Intel has been particularly strong, directly rejecting any form of authorization, whether it is a perpetual license for the instruction set or a short-term production license.

Lin Xiaofeng said a lot of good things, hoping to get the authorization and ask the other party to open a price.

The other party said casually, okay, want a permanent license? Then give us $50 billion!

Lin Xiaofeng smiled bitterly, not to mention 50 billion US dollars, it is 5 billion US dollars, and Sihai Group can't take it out now.

The other party is obviously deliberately trying to embarrass Sihai Group.

Lin Xiaofeng knew that this matter was not negotiable, and even if he found Li Yunhai, he would not be able to come up with a solution.

She also asked the other party for a five-year chip production authorization.

Intel said yes, but we can only give you a production license for 286 chips, and the license fee is $15 million a year.

The 286 chip is a chip that is about to be phased out.

Any chip is expensive when it first comes out, and it will take two or three years to come, and when the new generation of chips comes out, the price of the old chips will be reduced.

The chip, which costs only a few tens of dollars, has just come out and sold for $950.

After a year or two, the price is cut in half.

After another two years, it sells for $150 and then $90.

Not to mention the 286 chip, it is the 386 chip, which is so expensive now, three or four years later, it can only be sold for about 100 US dollars. This is still Intel's official price reduction, and if it is a chip produced by other manufacturers, the price will only be lower.

What is the point of such an authorization?

Lin Xiaofeng retreated and begged Intel for grace.

Intel took a tough stance and left no room for words, you must finish production within three days! Otherwise, we'll file a lawsuit and pay you $2 billion in infringement fees! And prohibit your products from entering the United States!

Lin Xiaofeng was taken aback, the other party was so aggressive, she felt powerless to resist, so she had to follow Li Yunhai's last advice and order 300,000 chips from the other party.

The other party's tone finally eased up, saying that it is okay to order chips, but we have limited production capacity now, and a new factory is still under construction, and our 300,000 chips will be delivered within 6 natural months.

Lin Xiaofeng was dumbfounded!

Half!

The daylilies are cold!

This is really going to kill the rhythm of the Four Seas Group!

Lin Xiaofeng obeyed Li Yunhai's orders and did not refuse on the spot, saying that he would discuss it with the headquarters.

After she left Intel, she immediately called Li Yunhai, regardless of what time it was.

Li Yunhai hadn't slept yet, and had been waiting for Lin Xiaofeng's call.

After listening to Lin Xiaofeng's report, Li Yunhai let out a leisurely sigh!

Lin Xiaofeng knew that Li Yunhai was bitter in his heart, and said, "Yunhai, what should I do now?" We will definitely not be able to come up with a $50 billion licensing fee. ”

Li Yunhai snorted, even if he sold the entire Sihai Group, he would not be able to raise $50 billion.

In 1988, the New York Times published an article saying, "The awesome Intel has a monopoly on its own market, and the entire PC industry and Wall Street realize that Intel controls one of the most lucrative monopolies in the world!" ”

This year, Intel was 20 years old, recorded a revenue of $3 billion, and climbed 50 places on the global Fortune 500 list to 150th!

And what about Sihai Group?

It's just a baby who has just been salivating for four years, with a total market value of less than 20 billion Hong Kong dollars, and he can't even enter the Fortune 500.

Just as Li Yunhai was thinking about countermeasures, Lin Xiaofeng's voice came in his ears again: "Yunhai, should we order their chips?" Or buy their 286 chip production license? ”

Li Yunhai said: "Order chips!" The authorization of the 286 chip is of little significance! ”

Lin Xiaofeng said: "Although it doesn't mean much, but if we win the authorization, our lithography machine can continue to be produced." We launched a cheap computer, which is sold in China, and there is still a certain market. Now that the 286 chip is already very cheap, we can make the price of the computer to the lowest. ”

Li Yunhai groaned: "Five-year authorization, $15 million a year!" That's $75 million! Do you think we can make so much money back on 286 chips every year? ”

Lin Xiaofeng said: "This? I'm not sure, you're the boss, please decide. ”

Li Yunhai said: "Okay, then let's gamble!" Our self-developed chips have not come out so quickly, and we always have to produce our own chips. ”

Lin Xiaofeng said: "Yes, we are still reliable in producing our own chips." ”

Li Yunhai said: "In this way, we won the authorization of 286 chips and ordered 300,000 chips at the same time. ”

Lin Xiaofeng said: "For 300,000 chips, we need to pay almost $300 million!" They are very domineering, they have to collect the payment first, and then help us arrange production. ”

Li Yunhai sneered: "This is the advantage of monopoly, no matter what kind of conditions they offer, we can only listen to them!" ”

Lin Xiaofeng said: "300,000 chips, enough for us to sell for a year, right?" ”

Li Yunhai said: "It's hard to say now. Auntie, you are in the United States, please contact our distribution in the United States, especially Hebrew, Mike and others, and ask them in person for a grace time for delivery. ”

Lin Xiaofeng said: "Then it will be delayed for more than 6 months? ”

"Hmmm! Yes! ”

"What if we can't talk?"

"If we can't talk, we're going to go bankrupt!"

“……”

Li Yunhai and his Sihai Group have suffered the biggest crisis in history!

And it's a major crisis that can't be solved!

In order to continue the chip business, Li Yunhai needs to take out three or four hundred million US dollars to hand over to Intel, get a five-year license for 286 chips and order 300,000 pieces of 386 chips.

If the buyers return the goods collectively and ask for compensation, then Sihai Group will really face the brink of bankruptcy.

This epic crisis came so suddenly!

Li Yunhai was completely powerless to parry.

He is now at the mercy of others.

Next, he raised $400 million to hit the account of the United States, won Intel's 286 chip authorization, and also purchased 386 chips.

On the other hand, Sihai Group mobilized all the way to communicate with buyers around the world.

If it can be postponed, try to postpone the delivery as much as possible, and if it can't be postponed, strive to get the other party to cancel the order and prevent the other party from suing for compensation.

There are only three days left until the Lunar New Year.

The members of the entire Sihai Group were shrouded in a thick haze, and no one had the heart to spend this year.

Lin Xiaofeng and David originally planned to return to China in the next two days, but they couldn't come back.

Chinese New Year, foreigners can not celebrate the New Year.

All the people of Sihai Group worked overtime during the New Year, and seized the time to explain to the buyers and strive for understanding.

As long as there is no fine, Sihai Group can survive this harsh winter.

Even if foreign businessmen do not refund the order, it will be difficult for Sihai Group to survive in the next six months.

In the past two years, the computer business has been their biggest income, but because the chip was stuck in the neck, the 386 model could not be produced within six months, which was a huge blow to the Sihai Group.

As expected, 90% of the orders that Li Yunhai worked hard to pull up at the CES exhibition and dealer conference returned the computer orders.

Li Yunhai invested heavily in publicity and held a dealer conference, but it ended up in this end.

Fortunately, most of the orders were signed recently, and many foreign businessmen have not had time to make payments, and they are also considerate of Sihai Group and will not be held liable for breach of contract.

Li Yunhai let out a long breath.

Although there is no need to pay a huge amount of liquidated damages, Sihai Group is still very angry.

The money in the account was all used to pay Intel for the purchase of chips and 286 licenses.

In addition, it will not be able to rely on 386 computers to make money in the next six months, and the revenue of Sihai Group will be cut in half.

On February 17, Chinese New Year's Eve, Li Yunhai hurriedly returned home with Lin Zhi.

His parents asked him, "Why did you come back so late this year?" ”

Li Yunhai would not tell his family about his troubles at work, only that he was too busy with work and came back late.

The building where the third child lived, because the roof was crushed by heavy snow, and the rain eroded the adobe brick house, so the third child moved to a new house.

This kid finally understood the benefits of the brick house, but unfortunately he was still unrepentant, he couldn't study well, and after the holidays, he played cards and smoked outside with a group of half-grown children every day.

Li Yunhai didn't have the energy to care about him, let alone a brother, he was a son, if he was so disobedient, what could he do?

On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, the village was lit with festive firecrackers.

Li Yunhai and Lin Zhi stood at the door of their homes, looking at the jubilant mountain village, and their unsatisfactory work was finally alleviated at this moment.

Lin Zhi comforted him and said, "Yunhai, let's do some small business!" Don't be too demanding. Even if we don't make computers, we can still make money. ”

Li Yunhai snorted: "I know!" This lesson is too profound! We've lost at least $1 billion! It's equivalent to what we've done in vain in the past few years! ”

Lin Zhi said: "How could it be done in vain? We also have Sihai Group, we also have CCA patents, micro piezoelectric printers, and Sihai Xerox copiers! There are also typewriters, learning machines, and translators! Our product line is still very rich. ”

Li Yunhai said: "Have you found it?" Only one's own technology is reliable, relying on others to enjoy food, that is a castle in the air, others are stuck in the neck, and all efforts are in vain! We spent so much money to ask MJ to do the publicity, and held a global dealer conference, and the result was a loss! Our alien computer, others want to buy it, but now there is no goods for sale! ”

Lin Zhi said: "Yes, so let's sell these products with independent intellectual property rights first!" We don't have chips, but we have memory, we have motherboards, we just can't sell the whole machine. ”

Li Yunhai gritted his teeth and swore to the sky: "One day, I, Li Yunhai and Sihai Group, must take back half of the computer!" ”

Lin Zhi saw his ambition, but also saw his loneliness and sadness, and said: "Yunhai, just rest for half a year!" Don't overthink it. Our life has been very good, and I am content. ”

Li Yunhai hugged Lin Zhi's shoulders and said softly, "Okay!" ”

Lin Zhi's stomach became more and more pregnant, as if he was carrying a small watermelon.

Think about the day of pregnancy, I should have been pregnant in August last year, and the due date was at the end of June and the beginning of July.

Li Yunhai discussed with Lin Zhi that as soon as his 22nd birthday passed, the two would get married, and said that July 1 was a good day.

Lin Zhi said that at that time, my belly was as big as a ball, how could I get married?

Li Yunhai said it's nothing, and he doesn't wear Western-style dresses, so how can we come conveniently.

Lin Zhi smiled shyly: "Relatives and friends will definitely laugh at us when they see it." ”

Li Yunhai said: "It's too late for them to bless it!" It's called Double Happiness! Hahaha! ”

The smell of the New Year in the village is still so strong, and the young people who go out to work go home for the New Year, and the number of people in the village is instantly increased.

Li Yunhai planted a seed in major cities across the country, that is, he supported more than 1,000 printing shops.

These printing shops are all opened by villagers in the Meishan area.

Now, this seed has become a spark that has led more people to join the industry.

Many villagers in the Meishan area began to raise their own funds, leased equipment from Sihai Group, and opened printing shops in major cities across the country.

Li Yunhai has made Meishan people and made them enter a good business of making a fortune.

These people, in turn, helped Li Yunhai make money.

The rental of equipment and the purchase of consumables continue to bring considerable profits to Sihai Group.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, there was an endless stream of people who came to Li's house to pay New Year's greetings.

The first batch of Meishan villagers who went out to open a printing shop all made money and went home to build a building, and they carried the chickens, ducks and geese raised at home, bacon, and candy to thank Li Yunhai.

Li Yunhai even said that there is no need to give gifts, please bring them back!

But everyone said, "You have helped us, we have made money, and we have built a brick house at home, and we have nothing to repay you, so please don't dislike it."

Seeing that Li Yunhai didn't accept gifts, everyone put down their things and left.

The Li family couldn't catch up.

Seeing this scene, Li Yunhai's disgraced heart was suddenly burned by the sun.

And who said that his efforts were meaningless?

Here's what he's all about!

Through his efforts, his own life has been dramatically improved, and it has also changed the Meishan area, a national-level impoverished city!

Almost all of the country's printing shops are opened by Meishan people, and now the number has reached more than 6,000.

In the past two years, more people will invest in this industry, and printing shops will be opened in various cities.

Xiongguan Mandao is really like iron, and now it is stepping forward from the beginning!

The glory of the past and the setbacks of the past have disappeared in the long river of history with the sound of firecrackers in the New Year.

When the Spring Festival passed, Li Yunhai took Lin Zhi on the way back to Jiangzhou.

No matter how tortuous the road ahead is, Li Yunhai will unswervingly enter a new journey! (End of chapter)
