What's SoftBank's current situation?
Overseas, I am restricted by a group of giants in Silicon Valley, and in Japan, I am suppressed by the six major chaebols. Now I am just resting on my laurels, pretending to be awesome by relying on the dividends from Alibaba and Yahoo shares.
But recently there have been some differences between Sun Zhengyi and Jack Ma.
This is about the super butterfly effect caused by Chen Yi, the wind god dragon, inadvertently flapping his wings.
Compared with the previous life, after the existence of Xi, an artificial intelligence, in the mainland, some industries that had been controversial due to regulatory difficulties in the previous life were directly opened to the world, because Xi can achieve the strictest supervision.
Therefore, the payment business license, also known as the payment license, was opened to the private market after only two months of discussion in the Mainland. It was implemented in August last year, but it still has to be an enterprise with all mainland capital to be eligible to obtain the license.
But Alibaba, a player that started with foreign capital, is definitely not able to meet this condition, but it must have this license for its next development.
So Lao Ma made a lot of moves and directly opened another Jiangnan Alibaba Group Co., Ltd., and after a lot of capital operations, he finally made Alipay a wholly-owned subsidiary of himself, and then directly changed its name to Ant Financial Services Company. .
Yahoo and SoftBank immediately exploded on the spot. What they liked about Alibaba was its Alipay, which has unlimited potential and can be developed into a super leek harvester. But now it has nothing to do with them at all?
So Lao Ma started an elegant and easy-going conversation with Sun Zhengyi and Yang Zhiyuan (Chairman of Yahoo).
Sun Zhengyi and Yang Zhiyuan thought it was too unethical for Lao Ma to be a solitary eater. Such a large gold mine directly kicked SoftBank and Yahoo away.
But Lao Ma felt that he had done the right thing for Ali, because if Alipay could not be fully owned by mainland capital, it would be impossible to continue to develop in the future, so the differences between the two parties arose.
It's just that Yahoo and SoftBank are very angry that Alipay doesn't have a share in them, because Alipay is also their lifeblood!
If Alipay has nothing to do with them, it will be equivalent to losing most of their income. This will be a fatal blow to the two established giants who have begun to rest on their laurels, so the two began to take action.
Lao Ma has a bad reputation internationally and is considered a person who does not keep his word. However, privately, the three parties are still slowly talking. Now, after the three parties have talked for a long time, although the smell of gunpowder is not as strong as at the beginning, there is still nothing. An agreement was reached, but soon.
After all, the three parties did not really want to break up. Lao Ma needed the overseas connections and channels of Yahoo and SoftBank, and Yahoo and SoftBank were reluctant to part with the treasure trove of Alipay, so they finally discussed a compromise plan.
Alipay pays Alibaba Group a certain percentage of its pre-tax profits in the name of intellectual property licensing fees and technical service fees. After listing, it will also pay a certain return based on a percentage of its own market value. The specific amount is still under discussion.
During this incident, Sun Zhengyi felt very worried because he found that after this incident, Lao Ma could no longer maintain the same tacit understanding with him as before, but regarded him as a burden.
In fact, Sun Zhengyi was indeed a burden, but he didn't think so, but he realized one thing.
That is, SoftBank seems to have nothing else to sell except Alibaba and Yahoo. And if Alibaba does something wrong again, Yahoo will also attack, and SoftBank will also attack.
In other words, SoftBank's life and death all depends on Alibaba. Well, after Chen Yi's previous life, Alibaba and Sun Zhengyi broke up, SoftBank was not only directly in debt, but also completely lost all mainland connections and channels.
Of course, the relationship between Lao Ma and Sun Zhengyi is not so tense now, but there is a gap in their hearts, so Sun Zhengyi is also looking for a new breakthrough, and must get rid of the current embarrassing situation where SoftBank relies on Alibaba for everything.
But since I invested in Alibaba, in addition to investing in several Internet companies in the mainland and successfully listing them, everyone was sad and cried when I heard about them. After hitting the wall all the way, I finally saw a glimmer of hope in smartphones.
But Shuguang Club is not a poor guy like Lao Ma who is in urgent need of funds. It is not easy to get more say. But before that, he has to determine one thing, and that is whether Shuguang Club has any useful information.
Sun Zheng's eyes flickered, he looked up at Kira and asked directly: "Do you have a prototype now?"
After asking this question, he actually felt very uneasy, because he was afraid that Shuguang Society just suddenly decided to enter the market in a fit of enthusiasm, and the progress was still zero.
Kira just took out three photos and an mp4 from his side and handed them to him.
"Shuguang Society has been researching smartphones even earlier than Nokia and Apple. This is the latest generation prototype in the laboratory!"
Sun Zheng perked up after hearing this.
There are already prototypes in the laboratory, and there are more than one generation?
Doesn't that mean that mass production is not far away, and Shuguang Society's relevant technical reserves sound like it may be stronger than Apple's.
Sun Zheng's face showed a burst of pride when he thought of this.
"I knew you could do it!
When it comes to the semiconductor industry, Japan really has no one to fear. It wasn’t the suppression of the United States more than ten years ago, but now it has already crushed Silicon Valley to the ground. How can it be the turn of those people in Silicon Valley to be arrogant?
Many upstream components and raw materials in the entire Blue Star semiconductor industry must be purchased from us! "
But after all, Sun Zhengyi's movements were not slow at all, and he quickly took the photos and MP4.
However, he was deeply attracted by the first glance at the photos. The three photos were of the front, back and side of the prototype.
As soon as Sun Zheng looked left and right, he didn't find the keyboard. He only found two buttons, one long and one short, on the side.
However, the mirror as smooth as obsidian attracted his attention deeply like a magnet. He couldn't leave it in a short time. His breathing became rapid, and he immediately realized something.
Kira understood very well that the other party was acting like she had never seen the world before, because she wasn't much better when Chen Yi showed her the prototype yesterday.
"This... this... this... is really a mobile phone?!
Capacitive touch screen control? !
Barka can!
this. . . this. . . This is simply a work of art! "
Kira just said calmly: "This is a mobile phone. You can watch the video demonstration directly for the specific operation."
Thinking of this, Sun Zhengyi remembered that Kira had given him an mp4, and quickly took it to his eyes. There was only one video in it, which must be a demonstration of the operation of a smartphone. He quickly opened the video.
It's still an obsidian mirror, but this time it looks much more vivid.
I saw a pair of hands showing the front, back and sides of the phone respectively. After pressing and holding the side button for a while, the screen emitted a faint light. Suddenly, a one-eyed minion appeared on the screen. Sun Zhengyi's His expression froze instantly.
After he saw this familiar logo, he immediately looked at Kira with incredulous eyes, and his whole body became like crying and laughing at the same time.
"Is this...legion's bitch?!
I always thought you were joining the Android camp, but I didn’t expect you were joining the chip alliance!
Hahaha, I'm so stupid, really, with the strength of the chip alliance, how can it be really indifferent to the next generation of mobile communication terminals!
It turns out that they had prepared everything a long time ago. I'm so stupid. I'm really stupid. They are not as flamboyant as Silicon Valley. They don't show anything. It's just their introverted personality. But I think they are short-sighted and just give up. Got this big cake!
Shuguang Society has signed a rare earth preferential agreement with the Rare Earth Alliance. I actually naively thought you were joining the Android camp!
How stupid I am, really! "
