"Are you sure it's 118% of the total profit, not 11.8%?"
In the villa, after Lu Fei made the first phone call to Sun Hongjun, the second call was to Gao Qiquan, the president of Yangtze Memory Storage.
Yang Mi muttered, picked up the coat, suit, and tie scattered on the sofa, and hung them all on her arms.
She was only 22 years old, but she looked very much like the young master whose brand had been turned over. After a brief moment of resentment, she felt both secretly happy and uneasy.
She couldn't help but feel nervous. After all, there were too many vixens, spider spirits, pipa spirits, and all kinds of demons and monsters surrounding Mr. Lu. There were two of them beside her alone——
Liu Shishi and Jing Tian.
Gao Yuanyuan and Zeng Li, the two empresses in the palace, were naturally not in a hurry, but how could I not be in a hurry under the East and West Palaces? They were both as famous as themselves, a flower of wealth and a magnolia.
To put it bluntly, they are all competitors in the same ecological niche!
After Liu Yifei fled to Hollywood, the first of the four actresses, and the Iron Throne of the new generation born in the 1980s, was destined to be born between the three of them, and it also decided who would hit Hollywood.
Without a foreign enemy with the same guns, it is natural to fight among ourselves.
As for Jing Tian's film, TV and singing career, she is much more popular than she and Liu Shishi. Her life trajectory is simply not too smooth. Her singing is protected by Jay Chou, Fang Wenshan and others. Her debut in the film industry, "The Secret That Cannot Be Tellable", is also He won the Golden Horse Award for Newcomer and the Golden Rooster Award for Newcomer. He was the best among the three of them.
He is also the youngest!
Her breasts are not as big as hers, her acting skills are not as good as hers, and her dedication is not as much as hers, but she is favored by Lu Fei the most.
"Hmph! Cuteness is worthless in front of sexyness!"
Yang Mi immediately went to put on the newly purchased Victoria's Secret underwear, and went to the bathroom to fill the bathtub with water, never missing any opportunity to compete for favor.
"No wonder."
Lu Fei frowned, "Samsung dares to invest and expand production on such a large scale because it has the support of the Bangzi government and banks."
"What Bangzi can say this time is the power of the whole country. We will never give up until we destroy and cripple a few memory rivals."
There was a hint of dissatisfaction in Gao Qiquan's tone.
"Will we be affected?"
"No, Yangtze Memory's overseas share is less than 0.5%. Its profits and business are basically domestic sales. With so many orders from Logic, Shenzhou, ThePaper, HTC, and Lianxiang, it is more than enough. But Samsung's operation will destroy Elpida." , Hynix, Qimonda and other large manufacturers that cannot survive are forced to a dead end."
"What's going on with these three families now?"
"They are all struggling. Hynix is okay. It just received a loan of 800 billion won. Elpida is a little worse. The loan limit of Neon Government is not very sufficient. The worst one is Qimonda. I guess it is the first It’s the one that can’t survive.”
"So, Samsung has helped us a lot!"
Lu Fei's eyes lit up, "In addition to the US$400 million obtained from selling Huayaco's shares, what other self-rescue measures does Qimonda have?"
"I have applied for a loan from the German government, Infineon and the Portuguese State Bank for the second time, but the three to five billion are of no use at all. The hole is really too big. The net loss this year alone is at least 1.5 billion euros, plus the entire company If we want to survive the new year, it will cost at least seven to eight billion US dollars."
"Did Qimonda borrow so much?"
"It's hard to say. After all, Qimonda is already the only storage giant in Germany and even Europe. Even if the EU doesn't help, Germany will not sit idly by. However, this aid needs to be approved by the European Commission." Gao Qiquan analyzed clearly.
"That's not possible."
Lu Fei smiled and said: "We must be prepared for acquisitions."
"Acquisition? Acquisition of Qimonda?"
Gao Qiquan hurriedly reminded that Qimonda was a hot potato and Infineon could not get rid of it even if it wanted to. Even if the 77.4% of the shares it held was sold at a low price, no one would pay attention to it. It was already a disgusting thing.
"If it were the first half of the year, I might consider it this way, but now, I only consider the bankruptcy and liquidation of Qimonda, and we will acquire it exclusively." Lu Fei asked, "How much will it cost?"
"We have calculated this. To fully acquire the bankrupt Qimonda, the total cost will be approximately US$1.5 to US$2 billion."
Gao Qiquan reported carefully.
Although Qimonda fell from the fourth largest storage manufacturer in the world to the fifth this year, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse.
There are more than 12,000 patents in intellectual property alone, including technologies related to DRAM, FLASH memory, semiconductor processes, semiconductor manufacturing, lithography, packaging, semiconductor circuits and memory interfaces. There are more than 5,000 U.S. patents and applications, and more than 7,000 international patents. patents and applications.
Not to mention fabs, talent teams, R&D projects...
"You make an appointment with Luo Jianhua for me. You can arrange the time and place. Once the arrangements are made, let me know immediately."
Lu Fei hung up the phone, took out a cigarette from the cigarette case, bit the cigarette holder without lighting it, and fell into deep thought.
"Ding."
Just like when someone gives you a pillow when you feel sleepy, Yang Mi gives you a fire.
Lu Fei glanced at Yang Mi, who had a charming face, and lit the cigarette, blowing smoke rings carelessly, "Has the water been put away?"
"Put it away, the water temperature is just right."
Seeing him leave her behind and walk towards the bathroom, Yang Mi couldn't help but be confused. She lowered her head and looked at the voluptuous underwear and convex figure. She couldn't help but doubt her life. Is it possible that seniors don't like sexy?
Without thinking too much, he followed him in a hurry.
They saw that the clothes were thrown into the clothes basket, and Lu Fei was washing his hair carelessly under the shower with hot water.
"Senior, let me wash it for you."
Yang Mi untied her bathrobe and applied shower gel on her body.
After taking a bubble bath and facial cleanser, Lu Fei lay comfortably in the bathtub, resting his head in Yang Mi's arms and closing his eyes tightly.
"Hmm."
Yang Mi held her chest and head high proudly, let alone Liu Shishi and Jing Tian, even Sister Yuanyuan and Sister Zeng Li couldn't do it!
This is your advantage!
"Massage my head for me."
Lu Fei opened his eyes and glanced at the mobile phone placed in the waterproof bag.
Yang Mi pouted and obeyed obediently.
After a while, I heard the phone ringing loudly.
Unexpectedly, Luo Jianhua agreed to meet.
Looking at Gao Qiquan's text message, the corners of Lu Fei's mouth turned up slightly.
Yang Mi said: "Senior, you are smiling so happily, have you accomplished another small goal?"
"Haha, this is no small goal."
Lu Fei noticed her forced smile and raised his eyebrows, "Are you okay?"
"It's alright."
"Is everything okay?"
"Well, no, it's okay."
"If you have something to say, let's talk about it. I'm happy now. After passing this village, there is no such shop." Lu Fei glanced at him.
"It's this year's Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers. I obviously starred in "Search" with Shishi, but Shishi was nominated for Best Actress, not to mention the heroine nomination, and the supporting actress was not nominated either."
Yang Mi pouted, her words filled with resentment.
Jing Tian even won the Newcomer Award.
Only I caught nothing, everything was empty.
Even if she is like this with them, she is completely incomparable with Zeng Li. She was nominated for a Golden Globe Award and starred in "The Twilight Saga"...
"Look at you, you're in a hurry."
Lu Fei shook his head and laughed: "Why are you so anxious? I haven't prepared a script for a chick movie for you. Why, isn't there one?"
"Yes, "33 Days of Love"."
Yang Mi blinked, "But can I win an award if I act?"
"As long as you follow the script and listen to the director's intentions, you will be qualified if you achieve results. I won the Newcomer Award at the Berlin Film Festival for "17 Years Old Bicycle". This is the mentality."
Lu Fei pursed his lips and tried to remember.
A plain truth sounded full of force in her ears. Yang Mi kissed her with admiration, as if her whole body was tamed and submissive, "Senior, you have a talent. If you focus on acting, you would have been there by now." He’s already a superstar!”
"Well, if the ending of "33 Days of Love" is good, it can help you compete for the Hundred Flowers Award. What do you think?"
"Really, senior?!"
"Think carefully about the play, why are you so anxious?"
Lu Fei rolled his eyes, "You still have a long way to go, so hurry now. The company will make clear arrangements for you. Believe it or not, you will only be anxious because of too many filming appointments in the future. After filming domestic and Hollywood movies, Yeah, I couldn’t finish the photoshoot at all.”
"It's okay, I have to finish filming all the scenes."
Yang Mi was elated when she heard his promise.
"Oh, you want to have fun?" Lu Fei asked.
"I'm just saying that I can't and don't dare to."
Yang Mi retracted her head and stuck out her tongue.
"Are you okay?"
"No, it's okay."
"Okay, it's my turn to do something."
Lu Fei turned over and the bathtub overflowed with water.
Soon, Yang Mi realized something -
The person is deep and I am long, the large intestine covers the small intestine.
…………
Three days later, Luo Jianhua came all the way from Germany and arrived at the appointment on time at the Jingcheng Club on the top floor of the Jingcheng Building.
Looking down, Sijiu City seems to have a panoramic view.
"Hey!"
Lu Fei patted the leather art chair and motioned for him to sit down.
"Lu, what is so important that it must be discussed in person?" Luo Jianhua sat down with a look of confusion on his face.
"Samsung is going to start a price war, do you know that?"
Lu Fei pushed the cigar box over.
"Of course! Samsung is absolutely crazy!"
Luo Jianhua was rude and cursed, "Don't you just want to wait until we are almost dead, then start raising prices, seize the market we have vacated, and double the losses?"
"Gao told me about the current situation of Qimonda. Is there a problem with your funds? You seem to have been slow to support the more than 100 million U.S. dollars in payment receivable by Huayake."
Lu Fei stared at him and said: "There are also Yangtze River Storage..."
"Lu, don't worry. Please rest assured. There is absolutely no problem. Qimonda is fully capable of paying off the goods, but our turnover speed is relatively slow. We will be able to pay it off in one go soon! Very soon!"
"But this is different from the information Gao and I reported back."
Lu Fei bluntly said that Qimonda had borrowed money from Infineon and the German government again, and this time it also borrowed money from a Portuguese bank.
"Yes, a total of 325 million euros, but this is just a common commercial loan."
"Really normal?"
"It's very, very normal. It just needs EU approval. The procedure takes time, but it will be a matter of time. But you, Lu, I know you have always been interested in Qimonda, right?"
"really."
Lu Fei nodded and struck a match.
Luo Jianhua's eyes lit up with fire as he promoted his Qimonda shares for Qimonda and Infineon.
77.4%, if you can’t buy it, you will suffer a loss, and if you can’t buy it, you will be cheated.
Micron, Samsung, and Elpida are all interested, but they hope that Mr. Lu can continue the last acquisition of Huayaco, either by Yangtze Memory to acquire Qimonda, or by Logic directly acquiring it. In short, no matter which one it is, they will They are complementary advantages.
“How much does Infineon offer?”
Lu Fei lit the cigar and took a puff.
"About $3 billion."
Luo Jianhua stretched out three fingers.
"Haha, this number is pretty much the same."
Lu Fei pressed down two of his fingers with his hand, "You should know better than me. Qimonda's debts and losses over the years are at least over 4 billion US dollars. Am I right in my estimate?"
As expected of Mr. Lu!
Not as easy to fool as Lian Xiang!
Luo Jianhua coughed to cover up his embarrassment: "We can still talk about the price. Lu, as long as you are willing, I can go to the Infineon headquarters with you and help you negotiate a suitable purchase price."
“Is Logic a strategic partner of Qimonda?
Lu Fei stared straight at him in the swirling smoke.
"That's right."
"So, am I your friend?"
"Of course!"
"Then as my strategic partner, you want to cheat me, and as my friend, you want to lie to me. Why?"
"Lu, I don't understand what you mean!!"
"Luo Jianhua! Luo Jianhua! What have I done to make you disrespect me so much and not even want to tell me the truth?"
Lu Fei smiled coldly: "Do you think I don't know?"
Luo Jianhua swallowed his saliva, "What do you know?"
"When I meet with you, I will naturally investigate Qimonda thoroughly. There are two conditions for the German government to lend you money. One is approval by the European Commission, and the other is equal investment from Infineon. Qimonda Part of the company has been nationalized."
Lu Fei narrowed his eyes, "Do you want me to continue?"
"No, no need."
Luo Jianhua's face turned pale, and the hand holding his cigar couldn't help but tremble.
Lu Fei curled his lips. If he had taken 77.4% of Infineon's shares in a daze, he would probably face Qimonda being involved by the German government. Although he was the absolute majority shareholder, the creditor was Germany and his roots were in Germany. Let Germany decide.
The technology, equipment, and production lines cannot be moved away, and Qimonda has to suck their blood. It is almost like buying back a father!
Damn it, you and Tianzhu Asan are so bad!
"It cannot be said that if Logic acquires Qimonda, we will definitely withdraw this loan application."
Luo Jianhua's words revealed a guilty conscience.
"Even if I don't acquire it, do you think this application will be approved?" Lu Fei sat back and leaned on the sofa.
"Of course! Why didn't the European Commission approve it?"
“Is the European Commission the key to the problem?”
"This this……"
"I remind you one last time, tell the truth, otherwise today's meeting will be aborted because you don't respect me and don't treat me as a friend. How can I do what a friend should do?"
"Hey, Lu, how did you figure it out?"
Luo Jianhua seems to have aged decades.
"It's very simple. If Infineon tries every means to save you, how can it be willing to sell all its shares at a low price?"
Lu Fei glared, "It means that we have given up. Infineon, the major shareholder, has already given up on Qimonda. How can the German government invest? If the German government does not invest, what is the use of the European Commission's approval!"
"Lu, you Chinese people are really too smart."
Luo Jianhua lowered his head and apologized repeatedly.
"It's smart, not shrewd!"
Lu Fei said with a serious face: "You can tell me about difficulties, but don't lie to me, because it means treating me as a fool, which will make me very angry. Do you think I am stupid? So stupid that I feel like I was deceived by Goldman Sachs and IBM. Lian Xiang, who has to run around?"
"No, that's not what I meant."
Luo Jianhua felt hard to say, "Well, to be honest, we have not waited for assistance or approval. It is very possible for Qimonda, we are very likely, and we may have to..."
"Speak slowly and speak out."
Lu Fei smiled and poured him a glass of whiskey.
I saw him finish the wine in one gulp and said with a wry smile——
If Lu Fei does not intervene and Logic does not acquire it, Qimonda will declare bankruptcy either this month or next month!
"This is what a friend should say."
Lu Fei poured him another glass, "If Qimonda goes bankrupt, what will happen to the payments from Yangtze River Storage and Huayake?"
"We can only use technology licensing buyout to pay off the payment. You can get Qimonda's most advanced 46nm process technology and GDDR5 technology patents. I think this buyout fee is enough?" Luo Jianhua said helplessly, "If that's not enough, the production base in northern Hubei and the R&D center in northern Shaanxi can be used to offset the price for you, so you don't have to worry about the payment at all."
"The terms of the repayment look pretty good."
Lu Fei touched his chin.
Luo Jianhua was struggling in his heart, and finally said -
For the sake of friendly forces, help your brother!
Infineon's shares may not be worth US$3 billion, US$2 billion, or even US$1.5 billion to win!
It sounded very tempting, but Lu Fei didn't even think about it:
"But how much money will it cost to save Qimonda like this? 1 billion, 2 billion, or 3 billion US dollars? For Qimonda to go bankrupt, there must be a big problem with itself."
"I admit that Qimonda failed and we have a problem."
Luo Jianhua was immediately unconvinced. He only blamed the damn market winter and the subprime mortgage crisis. He also blamed Microsoft for designing a system as rubbish as Vista. The most important thing to blame was Samsung.
But no matter how it fails, not admitting it is a technical failure.
"Is not it?"
Lu Fei shook his head, "You can't control your production costs."
Luo Jianhua did not object, but this was a flaw of trench technology. Qimonda was not unprepared. It moved the production line to China on one hand and launched "embedded technology" similar to stack technology on the other. It just didn't have the funds. Just fall down.
He bit his cigar fiercely: "It's just one year. As long as we hold on for one more year, we will definitely be able to break through, and we can use the buried style to end the groove style era, and then kick Samsung's butt hard!"
"Do you really want to take revenge on Samsung?"
"That's no need to say it!"
"What if I say I'm willing to help with this?"
"Lu! You finally made up your mind to acquire Qimonda's shares, right?"
"no."
"That means you are willing to provide us with loans. Qimonda doesn't want much, just three to four billion euros."
"In a situation like Qimonda's, seven or eight hundred million dollars is useless."
Lu Fei pushed a document in front of him.
Luo Jianhua took a closer look and saw that it was a secret agreement for exclusive acquisition. That is, when Qimonda goes bankrupt and liquidates, just like Lehman, a bankruptcy administrator will be formed to sell all the assets.
And the conditions given by Lu Fei are quite generous——
The positions of Qimonda's existing employees can be retained, and the wafer foundry in Germany will remain intact for the time being.
Infineon can even continue to cooperate with Qimonda and Yangtze Memory on memory chip projects if it voluntarily wishes to do so.
Densely packed and comprehensive.
"Do you hope that Qimonda will stand up again after its bankruptcy, fight side by side with Yangtze River Memory, and defeat Samsung?"
Lu Fei filled his glass with whiskey again.
Like a devil whispering, Luo Jianhua's inner flame of revenge was drawn out again, and he drank a whole glass of wine -
By the way, it turns into a raging fire!
