Chapter 247 Collective Rebellion Incident

Time flies very fast, and half a year has passed in a flash. Teacher Xiao Zhao is sitting in Shencheng and has not left. The technical "exchange" with ASML is his most important thing at the moment.

In the past six months, I only went to Hong Kong Island in March. After half a year of negotiation and planning, Bandung Bank has been acquired by Teacher Xiao Zhao. The price is a bit more expensive than expected, nearly 2.4 billion Hong Kong dollars. Of course, it is also within the acceptable range.

HSBC seems to have lost interest in Zhongxing in the past six months, and its enthusiasm for investing in Zhongxing seems to have been extinguished.

Vision also spent half a year withdrawing assets from the U.S. stock market with a capital of 34 US dollars, and got back 5.8 billion US dollars, with a profit of 2.4 billion US dollars.

Compared with Soros, who made a profit of 50 to 60 billion US dollars by sniping against the British pound, and made a lot of money, the prospect is just to follow Soros and drink some soup.

Twenty-four US dollars was already a lot. Vision added US$1.2 billion to repurchase 13% of Motorola's shares in CITIC. Motorola's shareholding in CITIC has dropped to only 3%.

Zhao Guoqing told Tommy that he should just sell all the 3% shares.

Tommy shook his head, unwilling, saying that the 3% was feelings.

Shit feelings.

Motorola invested US$2 billion in China News, which is called "God's operation" on Wall Street!

Tomi is now honored, not to mention that profits have doubled in more than a year. The key is that Motorola has obtained Zhongxun WCDMA technology, which has established Motorola's current dominance in the global market. This is what they value most. .

Friction has begun. Motorola's marketing is incomparable to Zhongxun. With the same functions and the same price, consumers choose Motorola more than the unknown Zhongxun.

From September last year to now, Motorola's stock price has increased 7 times, which shows the capital's pursuit of Motorola.

Teacher Xiao Zhao is also used to it. There is no relationship in the shopping mall. It is a relationship of mutual use, and the pursuit is nothing but profit.

Motorola's departure was both expected and unexpected.

"That's fine, I won't have to worry about their faces if I slap them in the face!"

Of course, there is also Lee Kun-hee of Samsung. In 1992, Samsung's semiconductor division suffered a huge loss of US$1.2 billion, with most of the losses concentrated on the DRAM project.

However, Samsung's next operation made Mr. Zhao confused. Even with such losses, Samsung still invested US$800 million in building six new wafer fabs in 1993.

The more you lose, the more you build? This is countercyclical investing.

And Li Jianxi comes to Shenzhen market almost twice every month.

He was so shameless that he begged Zhongxun for technical assistance and then stabbed him back.

How could Mr. Zhao tolerate it? The transfer of WCDMA mobile phone technology was just that. Sinocom provided technical information in accordance with the contract. As for whether Samsung could digest it, Sinocom engineers were not so enthusiastic about the guidance.

Li Jianxi specifically told Zhao Guoqing: "Central's engineers did not guide them in localization according to the contract..."

Teacher Xiao Zhao’s answer was also very simple: “We teach seriously, but you learn too slowly!”

So much so that after more than a year, Samsung's mobile phones are still stuck in the stage of assembly with incoming materials. As for South Korea opening up the WCDMA mobile phone market to SinoCom, that is a joke.

As Zhao Guoqing expected, unless a product is not produced in South Korea, as long as it is produced by a local Korean manufacturer, Korean consumers will definitely choose their own product, no matter how bad the product is.

Because their culture of low self-esteem is so exclusive, it has been extended to business, making South Korea the most closed market in the world.

As for the 500-nanometer advanced process that Li Jianxi was obsessed with, Mr. Zhao asked Samsung to provide equivalent technology in exchange. For example, large hot-rolled steel plate technology for ships, automobile engine production lines, automatic transmissions, precision chemistry, modern pharmaceutical technology, and several large five-axis machining centers.

Samsung is unwilling to transfer technology, and naturally neither is Zhongxun.

Office of the President of Zhongxun Corporation.

Fred said: "Mr. Zhao, the finance of Sinocom Chip Processing Factory has been separated, and the personnel and assets have been separated from the group. SMIC is now an independent company!"

From this moment on, SMIC has become an independently operated company. It has five wafer fabs, 136 sets of various photolithography, etching and other equipment, and masters the world's most advanced 500-nanometer process.

The slogan is that it can serve as OEM for chip manufacturers around the world.

Currently, SMIC's largest business is manufacturing DRAM memory particles for SinoCom, accounting for about half of its production capacity, while mobile phone chips account for about 20% of its production capacity.

Currently, we are OEMing CPUs for VIA, but the quantity is still very small, and it will take some time to reach full production capacity.

Xie Lianchi, general manager of SMIC, is an old man. Zhao Guoqing brought him here from the Core Energy Processing Factory. He hurried to Zhao Guoqing's office and said, "Mr. Zhao, I have an emergency to report to you!"

When Zhao Guoqing saw Xie Lianchi's furious look, his heart sank. Something big had happened to SMIC.

Xie Lianchi said: "Seventeen people from the second workshop resigned collectively today. They handed in their resignation letters and left directly. The HR department did not give them a chance to talk to them!"

"All of them will resign in one day!" Teacher Xiao Zhao narrowed his eyes slightly, this is interesting!

"You didn't ask for compensation? Didn't you talk about options? Remember in the contract, no matter which party proposed to terminate the contract, there was a confidentiality fee, right, but it wasn't discussed either?"

Work is a two-way street, and it is impossible to ensure that everyone has no ideas. Zhao Guoqing imitated foreign technology companies and agreed on confidentiality fees in the contract for those involved in core research.

If core technicians resign, the company will support them with 80% of their original income for three years. The conditions are very simple: they cannot go abroad or join a multinational company during these three years.

Three years of income, based on Zhongxun’s salary level, is not a small amount!

Xie Lianchi said: "No, I didn't say anything, and I didn't answer the phone!"

"..."

Zhao Guoqing made a phone call in front of Xie Lianchi.

Reported the situation to the person on the phone.

"Liu Chu, this is the situation!"

"Mr. Zhao, SMIC is a first-level confidential unit, and we have already paid attention to these dozen people!"

"..." Zhao Guoqing asked: "What's their situation now?"

Liu Chu said: "They were divided into three groups to go to South Korea. Sixteen of them were detained on the spot at the airport. There was also a cruise ship named Qiu Longchun who was on board the ship now..."

"Qiu Longchun?" Zhao Guoqing asked Xie Lianchi: "What is the position of Qiu Longchun?"

"Chip terminal inspection engineer!"

Zhao Guoqing nodded and felt relieved. It didn't matter even if he escaped. He didn't control the core secrets.

Xie Lianchi said: "Mr. Zhao, Samsung must have done this. It's so shameless. We can't just let it go!"
