As for other computer core components such as graphics cards, motherboards, sound cards, and memory, Sugon Technology is also preparing to carry out the acquisition to the end.
After all, Shuguang Technology, which now has money, can directly acquire those companies, not to mention having a mature R&D team.
It can also own many technology patents owned by the company and other technology patents previously obtained by the company through cross-patent licensing.
It can be said that acquisition is the simplest method, of course, the premise is that you have money, and Sugon Technology is rich at this time, so in this case, it is natural to adopt the simplest method.
However, the specific negotiation and acquisition was a troublesome matter. In the end, this matter still fell on Rebus.
Regarding this, Rebus naturally felt a headache, but the capable man had to work hard, and since Lin Chen was also very busy, Rebus could only take the responsibility.
So as the decision was made on this matter, the meeting that determined the course of Sugon Technology and even the global technology industry quickly came to an end.
During this meeting, Sugon Technology made several major decisions.
The first decision was to expand mobile phone production capacity to an annual output of 360 million units.
The second decision is to invest US$25 billion a year to develop semiconductor production equipment and solve the problem of 90-nanometer process production equipment as soon as possible.
The third decision was to go public on the Nasdaq stock market while ensuring 67.5% of the absolute controlling stake of Sugon Technology and giving out small shares to reward meritorious officials. The interests of Wall Street Capital and American shareholders were aligned. Get an invisible umbrella of protection.
The fourth decision is to implement the separation of brand and production. From now on, Sugon Technology will only have mobile phone brands and no longer production capabilities.
In the future, Sugon's mid-to-high-end mobile phones will all be produced by Sugon Electronics, which will be established soon. In the future, Sugon Technology's new mid-to-high-end mobile phones will also be developed by the R&D department established by Sugon Technology.
The fifth is to decide to enter the computer industry and officially develop domestic X86 computers.
The first step in this decision is to prepare to contact the corresponding computer accessories company and directly acquire their computer division or directly package and acquire the entire company!
Among these five major decisions, any decision can be said to affect the future of Sugon Technology and even the future development process of global science and technology.
However, it is not easy for these things to show ripples. After all, it takes a process from making a decision to implementing it and then to the results, and the outside world does not know this at this time.
At this time, the outside media are frantically reporting on the miracles created by Sugon Technology, and how terrifying the sales of Sugon S2 smartphones are.
After all, the Sugon S2 smartphone was only released on June 1st, and now it is only June 5th, which is one of the craziest periods of news and public opinion.
…
Time flies by. Sugon mobile phones are still selling like crazy and the four major mobile phone giants are preparing to jointly develop smartphones.
A few days later, on June 8, 2004, Sugon Technology made a big move that caused a global sensation.
This big move is that Sugon Holdings, the parent company of Sugon Technology, split off Sugon Technology and packaged a series of mobile phone factories and mobile phone parts factories owned by Sugon Technology for independence.
Sugon Electronics, which is at the same level as Sugon Technology, was established to be responsible for the production of complete mobile phones and mobile phone spare parts.
People in the world were naturally confused when faced with Sugon Technology's huge move.
I don’t know what Shuguang Technology is doing. Why did the good Sugon Technology suddenly split into two companies?
Of course, while they were surprised and puzzled, they quickly focused their attention on the second news.
Because this second news is no less sensational than the previous one, and even has a stronger sensational effect.
This second news mainly has three contents. The first one is that the newly established Sugon Electronics announced that it will invest 10 billion Xia Yuan to build its own lithium battery factory in Jiangsu.
If there are no accidents, Sugon Electronics' lithium battery factory will be officially put into production around the beginning of May a year later. It is expected to be able to meet its own needs and sell large-scale mobile phone lithium batteries to the outside world.
As for the second content, Sugon Electronics announced that it will spend 30 billion Xia Yuan to build three 5th generation TFT-LCD screen production lines in Tianjin.
Once the construction of these three fifth-generation TFT-LCD screen production lines is completed, Sugon Electronics will be able to produce its own mobile phone screens and computer screens while also selling screen panels to external parties to gain huge profits.
As for the third and final content, Sugon Electronics announced that it will expand its production capacity on a large scale. From then on, Sugon Electronics' mobile phone production capacity will increase from 120 million units to 360 million units per year!
In this regard, in the face of several big news made by Sugon Technology.
Netizens around the world were naturally confused, and then they all lamented that Shuguang Technology was such a big deal. It actually spent 40 billion Xia Yuan to build a factory.
Although the news was not actually made by Sugon Technology but Sugon Electronics, people still subconsciously attribute Shuguang Electronics to Sugon Technology.
However, while many people are marveling and sighing, some business people are also calculating how much strength Sugon Technology has left after being split up.
He is also calculating how many powerful companies there are under Sugon Holdings, the company behind Sugon Technology, and how strong those companies are.
Soon as they made their calculations, they were surprised to find that each of the holding companies under Shuguang Holdings was quite extraordinary. A single move by each company could cause huge turmoil in the industry!
First of all, among the many holding companies, the first one to focus on is Shuguang Technology Company.
Shuguang Technology Company is currently specializing in the mobile phone industry. All the mobile phones it sells are mid-to-high-end mobile phones. It is expected to sell hundreds of millions of units. In terms of profit and income, it can be called the absolute king of the mobile phone industry.
Although Sugon Technology has been dismantled now, it no longer has the production capacity of complete mobile phones and mobile phone parts.
However, the valuation of Sugon Technology after being dismantled did not decrease much, because producing mobile phones by itself is not much different from OEM production by brother companies.
The cost of producing mobile phones yourself can indeed be lower, but after all, it is a labor-intensive enterprise, and the risks of setting up a mobile phone factory are still high.
Although the cost of hiring a brother company to OEM mobile phones will be slightly higher, for a mobile phone company like Sugon Technology that specializes in the mid-to-high-end mobile phone industry, what does the higher OEM cost mean?
Therefore, Sugon Technology's strength and valuation have not decreased much, and it is still the undisputed king of the mobile phone industry. (End of chapter)
