Magic City, High-tech Zone.
Xinghan Digital is located in an inconspicuous building here. Without cooperation, it would be difficult for the media to visit this company.
On Monday morning, Ren Zhi drove a Range Rover slowly into the underground parking lot. In big cities, there are many private companies that go to work at 9 o'clock. Of course, state-owned enterprises, banks, hospitals, and schools all start work at 8 o'clock.
As soon as he got off the elevator, he received a call from his cousin Ren Chao, "Xiao Zhi..."
"Mr. Ren, hello!" The pretty girl at the front desk saw the young boss coming in and quickly stood up to say hello.
Ren Zhi nodded casually. He didn't like this kind of red tape, but he had to have the necessary courtesy. Holding the mobile phone, he listened to his cousin Ren Chao describing the situation on the phone and venting his dissatisfaction with Jing Gao.
"Xiao Zhi, what exactly is the second uncle going to do with Jing Gao?"
Ren Zhi opened the door calmly, walked into his office, sat in a comfortable chair, and said, "I haven't communicated with my dad yet."
Ren Chao: "..."
Ren Zhi picked up the thermos cup and took a sip of water. "Since all your funds have been redeemed, let's deal with this matter and rest for two days. This matter will definitely have a result. Hang up first, I have to prepare for a meeting .”
The CEO office of Xinghan Digital is not large, about fifty square meters. Office desks, coffee tables, sofas, bookcases, and green plant displays.
Ren Zhi's character is calm and cold. But at this moment, when he put down his mobile phone, he felt a huge pressure on his face, as if the air was a little heavy.
He knew that Jing Gao had defeated Ma Yun in Wuzhen and was in the process of liquidating the matter. Now, it was finally their Ren family who took action.
Compared to the previous time when the conversation with Jing Gao broke down in the Tomson Golf Club, when he was silently despised by Mr. Guo of Fosun and complained in the eyes of Ali's people, he felt extremely aggrieved, resentful, and rude in his heart!
But now, these days have passed, and the emotions in his heart have calmed down. He has already figured out his situation: with Jing Gao's presence, his father may have to do a lot of work for him to take over the Galaxy Group.
For example, to dispel the concerns of Aunt An, Uncle Cheng, Uncle Xi and others.
Jing Gao's plain face flashed through Ren Zhi's mind. He still felt very disgusted, but he was silent and dared not speak, and he no longer despised this person as before. The gap between him and Jing Gao is already obvious.
Ren Zhi thought for a while and called his father Ren He.

Tan Qin had just flown back from the United States in the early morning, and it was already past 4 p.m. after jet lag. His villa is located on the outskirts of Magic City, surrounded by mountains and rivers. In early winter, from the living room on the second floor, the mountains and forests were all yellow, and the lake was silent.
At this time, the mobile phone placed on the sofa coffee table behind him rang.
"Alas..." Tan Qin, a handsome man in his forties wearing a turtleneck sweater and with side-parted hair, rubbed his face, walked to the coffee table and answered the phone, sat on the sofa, crossed his legs, and used his magnetic The voice smiled and said: "Hello, Assistant Song."
Tan Qin had extensive contacts. He and Ren He knew each other.
The call was from Ren He's assistant Song Fa. Song Fa said politely and respectfully: "Mr. Tan, hello. I want to ask you something."
Tan Qin said calmly: "You say it."
"That's right. This morning, a large number of private equity funds managed by Ren Chao were redeemed, and he has applied for liquidation. Does this matter... have anything to do with Mr. Jing of Phoenix Fund?"
Tan Qin understood as soon as he heard this that although he was in the United States. But WeChat can still be used. He said with a smile: "How to put this matter? It can be said to be related, but it doesn't matter. Mr. Jing has been promoting the acquisition of Didi recently. Some capital here in Shanghai has been trapped in it and is not allowed to come out. Killing the chicken to scare the monkeys! Finance As you know in the industry, whenever there is any disturbance, it will spread all over the city. It is probably that Ren Chao’s customers heard some rumors."
Song Fa said hurriedly: "Mr. Tan, thank you. I understand."
After hanging up the phone, Tan Qin sat on the sofa and couldn't help but shake his head. I don't know how this will end.
He and Ren He have a relatively close relationship. I know Ren He's temper very well: he loves face and refuses to admit defeat. Jing Gao wanted Brother Ren to be completely embarrassed this time. Can Ren Zhi mobilize US$1 billion? Can Galaxy Group mobilize its resources to suppress Phoenix Films? This must have been tacitly approved by Brother Ren.
So, if Ren Zhi loses this battle, his reputation among the big guys on Shengtan Beach is not good, and the gap between him and Jing Gao is too obvious. It was Brother Ren's face that was also lost.
And Jing Gao has been murderous recently, and his nature, tsk tsk, is really about grudges. It is said that when the conversation between Jing Gao, Xie Shihuang and others broke down, he pointed at Ren Zhi before leaving. The subtext is obvious: Just wait for me!
The two sides are at odds with each other.
In fact, the reason why he flew back to the United States within two weeks was because Igao made an appointment to visit him tonight to thank him for his support when Uber was facing difficulties in financing. This attitude should actually be equivalent to easing the fact that he was not accepted as a middleman to mediate Ali's conflicts.
See how beautifully they did this? Ren He wanted to know the situation, but asked his assistant to call him.
Hi!
…
…
In the morning, Jing Gao accompanied the leaders of Shanghai Magic City to inspect the "Shan Hai Jing Chip Research Institute" in Qingpu.
Phoenix Fund is determined to invest US$1 billion in chip design research. This is a project strongly supported by the government. Therefore, after this period of demonstration and investigation, the government approved 5,000 acres of land in Qingpu to build the headquarters building and park of "Shanhaijing Chip".
The park will not only have R&D buildings, but also residential buildings, schools, banks, hospitals and other facilities. Form a very large, mixed community.
This is not just about introducing high-tech companies to serve the municipal government’s science and technology strategy and planning. It can also drive economic development in Qingpu.
Of course, land is granted, the bidding and auction procedures still need to be completed, and the land transfer fee also needs to be paid. Because it is a land for scientific research and design, it is estimated that it will be acquired for about 3.5 billion yuan.
At present, the staff of "Shanhaijing Chip" still work in an office building purchased by Phoenix Fund in Pudong. Jinggao is not here to lie. He not only has 1 billion US dollars placed in an account jointly supervised by the city government to ensure the introduction of talents. He will continue to spend real money.
The land purchase cost is 3.5 billion, the scientific research funding is 1 billion US dollars, and the total cost of park design and construction will not be less than 20 billion.
These investments are the anchor that Mr. Jing is currently in the limelight but remains unmoved!
Not to mention that the chip project has been strongly supported by the country in recent years. When foreign capital comes in to engage in manufacturing and high-tech industries, it will inherently receive super-national treatment. With the combined efforts of the two aspects, the height of the well is naturally as stable as Mount Tai.
At this time, "Shan Hai Jing" has hired relevant talents at high salaries at home and abroad, and various chip teams are hiring people every day.
The chip industry can be roughly divided into three parts: design, manufacturing, and packaging and testing. At present, China has reached a relatively high level in chip design. The most typical case is Huawei's Kirin chip.
The packaging and testing aspects can basically be completed in China, and this part of the technology content is not high. The difficulty lies in manufacturing. Basically, after the chip is designed, it needs to be manufactured by a chip factory. In this industry, TSMC is the giant.
Intel, Samsung, and SMIC are all players in this industry.
Of course, if the chip industry needs to be subdivided, there are also software tools used to design chips, the arm framework of chips, etc. Photolithography machines, various materials, devices, etc. used to manufacture chips.
After a group of people inspected the land conditions in Qingpu, they ended their trip and returned to the city.
Jing Gao asked his old classmate Zou Jihui to sit in his extended Lincoln car. The desolate wasteland and low houses went back, and the convoy moved forward slowly. Zou Jihui is the "Old Zou" who attended the high school reunion during the National Day holiday in Jinggao.
Zou Jihui is a top student who graduated from Jiaotong University in Shanghai. After graduating with a master's degree, I entered Huawei's research institute. Of course, a technical researcher at his level would not have such a thing as a "competition agreement." Jing Gao has a dark eye on chip design.
He asked Lao Zou to check for him. Classify the chips needed in mobile phones. Those that can purchase patented technology licenses, and those that need to be developed by yourself. Those that can produce results quickly, those that require increased basic investment, etc.
Then, break down these areas. Find the world's top experts and professors to be project leaders, and recruit doctoral students, graduate students, and undergraduates in science and engineering to work on the "Shan Hai Jing Chip".
"Mr. Jing, we are still building a framework and classifying it into categories." Zou Jihui is not very good at words.
Jing Gao smiled and nodded, patting his old classmate on the shoulder, "It only took less than a month to set up. There are so many things to do, so don't put too much work pressure."
He knew very well that Lao Zou, a graduate student who had only worked for two years, would definitely not be able to serve as chief technology officer. It is even more impossible to be qualified for the CEO position of "Shanhaijing Chip". He wanted to follow Lao Zou's line and poach a few technical management talents from Huawei.
Thousands of gold to buy horse bones! Lao Zou is his horse bone.
Of course, this is also an opportunity for Lao Zou. As the veteran of "Shan Hai Jing Chip", Lao Zou will not be too bad in the future.
Zou Jihui nodded and said excitedly: "Yes."
Liu Zhen, the CEO of Uber, who came with Jing Gao to become familiar with the leaders, was also in the stretched Lincoln. He took the red wine from the beautiful assistant Jiang Zi and said, "Mr. Jing, there is no news in Hangzhou yet." Lift the blockade of Uber. I’m curious how you negotiated with Mr. Ma? Ali is very stingy in doing this.”
Zou Jihui noticed that Liu Zhen used honorifics. This CEO, who is highly exposed in the media and has a high reputation, seems to be convinced by Jing Gao.
Jing Gao just smiled, took a sip of red wine, and said: "I won't go into details. We are cutting Ali's flesh. Ali Capital and other related capital have invested no less than 6 billion U.S. dollars. Their shares will be profitable in the future. You will be lucky to get back 1 billion US dollars. Anyone left in this situation will be stingy. Ignore them. You hurry up and negotiate the acquisition plan with Didi's shareholders. I will ask Caroline to cooperate with you."
Caroline is Wei Chenjun’s English name.
Liu Zhen chuckled and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Jing. We estimate that we can negotiate within ten days. We should be able to sign the contract before the end of our free month."
…
…
After finishing the Shanhaijing chip affairs, Jing Gao took his assistants Jiang Zi and Dong Youwei to visit Tan Qin at the well-known luxury villa area "Changning Palace" on the outskirts of Shanghai in the evening.
Not long after he returned to the devil, Danqing returned to the capital to work. Such a large-scale transfer of Phoenix Fund requires a high-level person to be in charge. Moreover, the Taichu Strategy Research Laboratory is still under construction and needs help from people to manage it.
Guan Guan is qualified as the secretary of the board of directors, but as the vice chairman, he still needs to work hard.
It's still that big European-style villa nestled against mountains and rivers. After entering the villa gate, it takes about five minutes to drive to the main building of the villa.
Tan Qin had been waiting at the door, laughing and shaking hands with Jing Gao, "Mr. Jing, long time no see. Your style is even better than before."
This is a double entendre. The last time we met was at the end of September, and now it is the end of November. And Jing Gao's status in the "Jianghu" is no longer the same as before.
"Thank you." Jing Gao smiled modestly and greeted Tan Qin, gave him the gift he brought, and later went to the restaurant to dine together. His two assistants have other positions.
In the bright and elegant restaurant, there are eight immortal tables and wooden chairs. Several plates of side dishes exude the aroma of authentic Zhejiang cuisine. Drinking the soft rice wine, Tan Qin said a little drunkenly: "Mr. Jing, it's normal for you not to see Xie Shihuang at that time. But Mr. Ren, what are your plans? Don't get me wrong, I want to ask myself. It's not for Ren. Always a lobbyist.”
Jing Gao smiled and said, "Mr. Tan, don't talk about this topic."
Tan Qin understood immediately. Jing Gao's opinion was not ordinary. If you are willing to chat for a few words and complain, it means you don't take it seriously.
