The office was quiet except for the sound of turning pages.
Luo Jianhua looked over the agreement over and over, "If you can produce such a document, you must have studied the German bankruptcy law, right?"
“Our legal department is professional.”
Lu Fei put the cigar on the ashtray.
According to the bankruptcy law, Qimonda's reorganization and reorganization plan will be given the green light all the way due to the bankruptcy application. The first step is to entrust a bankruptcy administrator to re-evaluate the bankruptcy application.
For example, it does not meet the bankruptcy conditions stipulated in German law.
Such as whether there is enough money to pay for the procedure...
As long as it enters the bankruptcy liquidation period, Yangtze Storage will be able to participate in the reorganization bid to rescue Qimonda, and there will be many ways to do so.
"It seems you are well prepared."
Luo Jianhua was in a complicated mood. Bankruptcy and liquidation would inevitably lead to being divided up. In order to avoid being divided, there was naturally a bid for an exclusive acquisition, which was equivalent to eating alone.
The prerequisite is that you must win the bid.
A satisfactory price must be given.
“In addition to what is written in the agreement, we will spend a sum of cash to acquire Qimonda, and we will be responsible for repaying the US$1.75 billion debt owed by Qimonda. With these conditions, I don’t think anyone can afford better than us. Conditions are met, what do you think?"
Lu Fei observed his expression calmly.
Luo Jianhua opened his mouth, not wanting to admit it, but he had to admit that the conditions were indeed attractive, but he was still unwilling to admit that the only way for Qimonda was to go bankrupt, reorganize and be acquired.
Once you apply, there is no turning back for Qimonda.
Including him, tens of thousands of employees have no way of turning back.
Seeing the confusion written on his face, Lu Fei raised the corner of his mouth:
"Luo, do you know why I added 'retaining the positions of the company's existing employees' in the agreement? Because I cherish talents."
“What attracts me most about Qimonda is not the fab, patented technology, or production line, but the talent!”
"There is a saying in China, if you save the land and lose the people, you will lose both the people and the land. If you save the people and lose the land, you will save the people and the land. As long as Qimonda's team is here, the second and third Qimonda will be born!"
Then he poured wine into Luo Jianhua's glass, "As a friend, I can give you an assurance that even if we can't acquire Qimonda, we will try our best to recruit you to Yangtze River Storage, like you, the vice president's The spot is always reserved.”
Are you trying to bribe me? !
Luo Jianhua's eyes flashed with meaning.
Either buy it and use it as a dog, or accept it and use it as a dog. It’s your choice. Lu Fei took a sip of whiskey with a smirk on his lips.
Luo Jianhua thought about it and was very excited.
No matter what, Qimonda cannot escape the fate of being unable to pay off its debts and filing for bankruptcy. If it can be acquired and reorganized by Yangtze River Storage, all its employees, including themselves, can keep their jobs.
Even if it is not successfully acquired, Yangtze Memory still retains the position of vice president, and it is not aggrieved.
After the bankruptcy of Qimonda, Yangtze Memory can at least obtain the world's most advanced 46nm process technology, GDDR5 and embedded technology. Its allies include Nanya, Toshiba, and Elpida. It has the backing of logic and China as its backer. Plus Qimonda, Huayake, and Yangtze River Storage's own talents——
In less than three to five years, great things can be accomplished!
Becoming one of the top five in the global storage industry is just around the corner!
No matter whether they are advancing or retreating, Mr. Lu has given most people in Qimonda, including him, a way out, a way out, and a way out.
What a timely gift!
"Actually, I also think it's unfair for you to go bankrupt."
Lu Fei saw that he was silent and continued to "fool", "I agree with your statement. Qimonda failed not in technology, but in capital. If we have our support behind it, there is no need to worry about Samsung's price war." , and it will not leave embedded technology without financial support. If you think about it, if you think about it carefully, if Yangtze Memory and Qimonda are combined, are you still afraid of Samsung? Samsung is afraid of us!"
"Gulu."
Luo Jianhua drank the wine in one gulp, "Lu, once Qimonda files for bankruptcy, it is very likely that Dresdner Bank will intervene. As long as I can convince the management, I will have the confidence to convince the bankruptcy administrator with the management, but this is still The final restructuring plan still needs to be approved by the local court and creditors such as Infineon and Deutsche Bank, otherwise it will not work."
"Don't worry, I'll make you an offer that's hard to refuse."
Lu Fei said seriously: "But the key is you. You must be on our side. Do you understand this?"
"Understood, I will fully support your acquisition."
Luo Jianhua is determined to lead the way for Yangtze River Storage! I want to lead 10,000 people in Qimonda to vote for the Communist Party!
…………
After reaching a consensus, the two left the club and separated.
Lu Fei reported immediately, and after completing the appointment process, he was arranged to meet inside the red wall the next afternoon.
The old man was as gentle and gentle as ever.
The secretary served tea to Lu Fei, but Lu Fei didn't bother to drink it and explained the ins and outs of the acquisition of Qimonda.
As long as the acquisition is completed, we will be able to obtain a complete memory integrated circuit industry chain including chip design, manufacturing and application, and it will be the world's most advanced high-end storage technology.
With a single embedded technology similar to a stack, Changxin Memory in its previous life went through several twists and turns and purchased Qimonda’s technical data, breaking through the technical blockades of Samsung, SK Hynix and Micron.
If Qimonda had not gone bankrupt, Qimonda might have been the first giant to master the stack among global storage manufacturers!
If Yangtze Storage succeeds, a technically and capital-enhanced domestic storage aircraft carrier will be born.
Neither steam ejection nor conventional power.
But the nuclear power of electromagnetic ejection!
"We have the opportunity to transform from a technology follower to a Chinese DRAM player that is on par with technology, leading the world, and even far ahead of its peers. Even if we compete with Bangzi and America, there will be no problem at all!"
Lu Fei said that his mouth was dry and he drank some water.
When he heard "leading in the world" and "far ahead", the old man's eyes lit up, "Xiao Lu, are you really so sure?"
"Yes! We have been keeping an eye on Qimonda for a day or two!"
Lu Fei vowed: "The future is an era of intelligence and data. Smart machines, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence will usher in an explosion. As the amount of data increases, the ability to process data must be strengthened, which requires powerful CPUs and GPUs, as well as Memory with larger data capacity and faster read and write speeds, now we are the first to conquer 3D flash memory, and with Qimonda’s stacked architecture technology, we have the possibility of overtaking the United States, Japan and South Korea.”
"Secretary Huang, take note of this."
The old man had a plan in mind, "We made it an important topic for discussion at the meeting, and included it in this European trip. When we arrived in Germany, we also visited the headquarters of Infineon and Qimonda."
After saying that, he looked at Lu Fei and encouraged him as if he were his own nephew: "Xiao Lu, just let go and go for it!"
"Yes, leader!"
Lu Fei smiled.
"You did a great job on Double Eleven this time, driving consumption, helping many companies switch from foreign trade to domestic sales, and make a soft landing in subprime mortgages. We will continue to work hard next year."
The old man praised, then changed the topic and mentioned the listing of Feigou.com, and said quietly: "Hong Kong is one of our international financial cities. During this global economic crisis, they expressed their hope that you will come to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. .”
“In fact, our first choice is also the Hong Kong Stock Exchange!”
Lu Fei shook his head and laughed and said: "It's not just Feigou, it's Penguin, it's Sogou too. The only reason is that the Hong Kong Stock Exchange has been unwilling to change. As long as we agree to 'different rights for the same shares' and the 'partnership system', we will immediately start the process." Plan to list in Hong Kong.”
"What you made is not an excessive request."
The old man gave a meaningful look.
"As long as these two major prerequisites are met, let alone Feigou.com, Penguin, Sogou, and Yangtze River Storage, I will all choose to be listed in Xiangjiang and build a position for China's Internet and high technology."
Lu Fei looked like he was "going through fire and water".
"It's good that you think so."
The old man patted him on the shoulder and told him to contact Secretary Huang or even him at any time if he encountered any difficulties.
From semiconductors to e-commerce, from logistics to the Internet, after chatting for a while, Lu Fei and Secretary Huang both walked out of the office.
"On January 26th, just wait at home, Mr. Lu. We will have a special car to pick you up at the airport to board your flight. Then you can just report the pick-up location to us." Secretary Huang said as he walked.
"OK."
Lu Fei nodded, and on the day after New Year's Eve, he, Ren Zhengfei and others accompanied the leaders on their trip to Europe.
"Regarding Qimonda, does Mr. Lu need support or help in any way now?"
Secretary Huang led him to the cafeteria.
Lu Fei climbed up the pole, "I heard that 3G licenses will be issued soon, right? I want to seek some support from China Mobile, China Unicom, and Telecom. After all, Qimonda is not only facing a huge crisis, but also a profit crisis. I want to Find it some business.”
……………
In order to implement 3G, the telecommunications industry has carried out the largest merger and reorganization, merging the original six major operators of China Unicom, China Telecom, China Mobile, China Railcom, China Netcom and China Satcom into three.
Satcom and China Telecom merged to form a new telecommunications company.
China Unicom and China Netcom merged to form New China Unicom.
The merger of China Mobile and China Railcom resulted in the coveted fixed-line business, that is, broadband business.
Three, corresponding to three 3G technical standard licenses, namely WCDMA, CDMA2000 and TD-SCDMA.
The weakest China Unicom got WCDMA.
China Mobile, which has the strongest strength and the richest financial resources, will be tasked with carrying out the domestic 3G standard TD-SCDMA.
"Mr. Lu, what do you think this is?"
In Lu Fei's Yonghegong courtyard, Wang Jianzhou poured out his frustrations. After all, TD-SCDMA was a big pit.
"There is no way. Who told you to move more people and make more money? 3G construction requires a lot of money to invest in base station construction and technology research and development."
Lu Fei consoled him and said, "You can't just give up because you think the cards you've been dealt are bad. How can we develop our own 3G standard?"
"I also know this. I have no objection to China Unicom taking WCDMA, but why should it give CDMA2000 to China Telecom? The most important thing is that China Mobile will pay for this license!"
Wang Jianzhou snorted coldly, feeling quite unhappy.
"You don't have to envy Telecom. Most of the CDMA technology is monopolized by Qualcomm." Lu Fei touched his chin, "I know Qualcomm very well. Qualcomm likes to eat alone. If it can't eat, it will eat more and occupy more. At most, it will be given to others. Let’s take a sip of soup. If it weren’t for TD-SCDMA, I’m afraid Qualcomm wouldn’t even let us drink this sip of soup.”
"Mr. Lu, what you said is fair!"
Wang Jianzhou had a wry smile on his face.
"Come on, let's drink."
Lu Fei raised the red wine and offered words of comfort.
Although TD-SCDMA is not as good as WCDMA and CDMA in terms of technology and network speed, it is not as good as having it yourself. No matter how bad it is, it is our own patented technology after all.
Nowadays, the IT and TMT industries are in global competition. They do not have their own standards and can only be controlled by others. Not to mention high patent fees, they may be expelled from the market at any time.
"Oh, who says it isn't!"
Wang Jianzhou clinked his glass and drank it in one gulp.
Lu Fei smiled and said: "Don't be so negative. With the users and wealth you have accumulated over the years, even if it only operates TD-SCDMA and has nearly 400 million user number resources, China Mobile still has a great advantage, enough to survive into the 4G era. "
"We think so too, and we will wait until 4G."
Wang Jianzhou sighed, "Let TD be TD. A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Compared with 2G, 3G speed is still a qualitative improvement. If you lose some customers, you will lose some. We accept it."
"In fact, there is still an incremental market in China."
Lu Fei narrowed his eyes, "You can dig if you move."
"Where is it! Say it quickly! Say it quickly!!"
Wang Jianzhou took the initiative to pour him wine.
“Don’t PHS still have 80 million users?”
The corner of Lu Fei's mouth raised. Telecom obtained the CDMA license. PHS, as a compromised backward technology, naturally had no value.
Didn't Gao Qisheng in "Hurry Up" just smash his hands?
With the decline of PHS, users are destined to change careers and join one of the three major operators. This is a good opportunity to cut off the number.
What do PHS users use PHS diagrams for?
Isn’t it just that the rates are cheap!
As long as China Mobile launches a PHS network transfer plan that provides purchase subsidies or even free gifts, coupled with reasonable charging packages, why worry about poaching PHS's massive users?
Even if one third is poached, it will still be nearly 30 million!
"Okay! It's good, but the trouble is..."
Wang Jianzhou's eyes lit up, then dimmed.
The industry chain of TD-SCDMA is not mature enough. The terminal alone is a big problem and there is no machine available at all.
Currently, there are only low-end phones developed by Datang and Xinyoutong.
Because European and American manufacturers, led by Qualcomm, suppress or even kill China's 3G standards, they do not produce TD-SCDMA chips. Basically, mobile phones on the market do not support TD-SCDMA.
"That's why I invited you here today."
Lu Fei narrowed his eyes.
"Mr. Lu, you mean you will help us!?"
Wang Jianzhou was surprised and happy.
"Of course, will I stand by and watch? Will I sit back and watch China Mobile and Datang develop TD-SCDMA in a painful way?"
Lu Fei teased in a joking tone.
"Mr. Lu, no, Brother Lu, thank you, brother!" Wang Jianzhou was extremely excited. "I won't say anything anymore, it's all in the wine. Come on, I'll toast you one, no, three glasses!"
"But I also have requirements."
Lu Feiyang raised his hand, TD-SCDMA was a big pitfall, and China Mobile had to subsidize it no matter what.
"No problem! Absolutely no problem!"
Wang Jianzhou patted his chest, "We originally planned to invest tens of billions of subsidies every year to improve the TD-SCDMA industry chain, but there is a shortage of terminals, chips, communications, in short, all kinds of shortages."
"For mobile phone terminals, in addition to logic, I will also arrange for Xiaomi, Tianyu, and Shenzhou brands to follow up. As for chips, don't worry. The Paper has already cooperated with Datang on TD-SCDMA, and there have been several projects. In addition, I will also persuade Huawei and ZTE to participate, what do you think?"
Lu Fei looked sideways and observed him.
In the previous life, the domestic chip industry began to rise driven by TD-SCDMA. Because foreign manufacturers such as Qualcomm did not cooperate, they had to roll up their sleeves and do it on their own.
Lianxin, Spreadtrum, and Huawei have benefited a lot from this.
The one who has benefited the most is MediaTek. The TD chip market has become an important market for Chinese chip companies to compete for.
Helping TD-SCDMA not only lays the foundation for TD-LTE in the 4G era, but also the entire logic will benefit. Freescale's low-end chips will come in handy.
Dram chips also have a huge gap!
After all, PHS has 80 million users.
China Mobile will definitely not be able to afford it, as will China Telecom and China Unicom.
The logic is that all three companies can take it all. The huge production capacity of Yangtze Storage's acquisition of Qimonda will be put to use. In addition, in the second half of 2009, Microsoft will launch the Windows 7 system——
Qimonda's crisis was easily resolved.
"Brother Lu, don't say anything anymore."
Wang Jianzhou was moved to tears. At the critical moment, Mr. Lu was the most reliable, and China Mobile always supported him in vain!
Instead of toasting red wine, he replaced it with white wine and poured a large bowl full of it. "Remember this favor move. In the future, it will be 4G or 5G. No matter how many G it is, we will definitely support you!"
"Which of us brothers is following whom? Cheers."
Lu Fei's mouth curled up slightly, everything was under control. (End of chapter)
