Chapter 244 Things have changed, the West holds an emergency meeting
While the domestic alliance is distributing the South Asian market cake, the official announcements of Longxing Technology and Kunpeng Company have spread throughout the industry.
The moment Apple CEO Wang Feng heard the news, his expression changed drastically, and he quickly opened his mailbox and sent an email to Pou Ke.
He has no authority to handle such a major matter and can only hand it over to the Apple headquarters in the United States for decision-making.
While editing international emails, Wang Feng murmured to himself: "Ren Guofei actually openly sided with Longxing Technology. Could it be that Chen Xing has developed some trump card?"
They are all. A veteran in the business world, he didn't believe that Ren Guofei would support Longxing Technology without thinking. There must be interests bound up in this.
“Could it be that 5G has come out?”
A terrible thought flashed through his mind.
Kunpeng Company’s current main business is the construction of 4G base stations. It has received a lot of help from domestic orders alone. It is no joke to make tens of millions of dollars a day.
If you can let it have a showdown and take sides, the chain of interests behind it is absolutely terrifying!
What can create high profits can only be the 5G network that shuffles the 4G network. Only 5G can bundle them together.
Thinking of this, Wang Feng did not forget to add his own guess at the end of the email.
At the same time.
Peninsula Seoul.
Korean Star Group Headquarters Building.
The heavy rain brought by the rainy season keeps washing away the glass of the building. The sky is gloomy and gives people a sense of depression. However, the mood of the eldest princess Li Zhenzhen is completely opposite to the heavy rain outside the window.
Just now!
Lee Ji-woo, CEO of Korean Star Group Longguo, called and told everything about what is happening on Longguo Internet now.
Kunpeng Company had a showdown and openly sided with Longxing Technology Company, but Chen Xing actually gave them a false shot!
Entering Southeast Asia?
It’s just a lie spun by Chen Xing!
"This is great news. The West may not be able to sit still." Li Zhenzhen murmured to himself, feeling happy.
After thinking briefly, she called her contacts on Wall Street.
A moment later.
International calls are connected.
"The eldest princess is looking for me?"
The voice on the other end of the phone sounded sleepy. It was still early in the morning in New York, and some people didn't have the habit of getting up early at all.
“Intensify the efforts to be bearish. Not only Gaotong and Apple, but Buffett’s investment companies must also be bearish.”
“Warren Buffett?”
< br>The person on the other end of the phone was surprised.
Strictly speaking, Buffett is on Wall Street, and sometimes he is willing to share interests with them.
Li Zhenzhen listened to the hesitation and sneered: "Hesitated?"
"That's Buffett...the stock god!"
"So what?"
"His liquidity is too strong. Currently, no company can short his company. Are we overestimating our capabilities?"
The method of shorting the stock market is very simple, that is, first buy the stock on credit. Return at the agreed time.
Suppose 10,000 shares of stock are borrowed on credit, and their total value is one million. If they are sold directly, the short-selling institution will make a profit of one million. When the agreed time is up, if the value of the 10,000 shares is only If the price is 900,000 yuan, then the institution only needs to spend 900,000 yuan to buy back the stock and return it, and the remaining 100,000 yuan belongs to the institution's money. This is short selling.
However!
This is Buffett, abundant funds can increase the stock price!
Once he discovers that someone is shorting his company, Buffett can completely increase the value of 10,000 shares to 1.5 million, so that by the agreed date, the short-selling institution will have to spend 1.5 million Buying stocks and paying them back is equivalent to a direct loss of 500,000.
Faced with the concerns of his partners, Li Zhenzhen told what happened in Long Guo and expressed his own views:
"I know Chen Xing very well, and he can make Ren Guofei take sides publicly. The chips may be so big that we can’t even imagine it. It’s very likely that the 5G network will come out!”
The man on the other end of the phone broke his voice. If it is as Li Zhenzhen guessed, Longxing Technology is going to reshuffle it!
Although Buffett is his idol and has taught him investment skills, money is the most important thing on Wall Street.
“Understood.”
He hung up the phone after saying that.
Li Zhenzhen tidied up her image, then pretended to be anxious and hurried to Li Zaiyong's office.
Obviously.
Her ambition is far from what it seems.
…
The other side.
Across the ocean in the United States, Cupertino, California.
Due to the jet lag, it was still dark here, and Ku Ke had always been in the habit of running in the morning. The alarm clock on the bedside table rang early, and he immediately got dressed and went for a morning run.
After three kilometers, I feel refreshed.
Back in the villa, Pou Ke first went to the bathroom to wash away his sweat, and then made himself breakfast unhurriedly.
Breakfast in Western countries is very monotonous, basically bread and jam sandwiches, milk, oatmeal and ham sausage.
“Ding——”
The bread machine beeps.
Pou Ke picked up the toasted bread, brought it to the dining table, and then poured himself a large glass of hot milk.
"Thank God."
After praying briefly, he skillfully spread jam on the bread slices, took a bite, and showed a satisfied expression.
It has been almost a month since he heard any news from Longxing Technology, and his nerves have relaxed a lot during this time.
In his opinion, Longxing Technology has not dared to step out of the country. It must have received wind and knew that Buffett was waiting for him.
That’s fine too.
Apple can develop with peace of mind.
While he was enjoying his leisure time, the cell phone in his pocket made a "ding" sound, which made his right eyelid twitch a few times involuntarily.
Before he even took out his cell phone, the emergency conference call had already come in.
After the call was connected, the chairman of the meeting, Renato Marotta, did not hesitate at all and said directly: "If you use a computer to participate in the meeting, you must be there within ten minutes."
Puke: "..."
In such a hurry, something big must have happened.
He didn’t know what happened, but since the other party was a congressman, he quickly responded: “I’ll get my laptop right away.”
After hanging up the phone, Pou Ke saw Wang Feng’s hair. Incoming mail.
He clicked into his mailbox, found the latest email and clicked to check it. His pupils suddenly shrank and he said in disbelief: "The 5G network has been developed? Impossible! How can it be possible to rewrite the algorithm architecture so fast! Absolutely impossible!"< br>
Although Longxing Technology has "Millimeter Wave Communication Technology", the data algorithm has always been in the hands of the West.
Want to get around it?
As little as three to five years, as many as ten years.
Three years from now, who can guarantee that 5G will be the leader?
This is why CEOs such as Pou Ke and Molenkov are not worried about Longxing Technology taking out the 5G network.
But the analysis in Wang Feng’s email is quite reasonable. If it weren’t for the 5G network, would Kunpeng take such a big risk and publicly take sides?
I have dealt with Ren Guofei, and it is no exaggeration to call him an old fox.
It is absolutely impossible for such a CEO, who has been in the business world for many years and is as shrewd as a fox, to make such a decision without being driven by large enough interests. “Is 5G coming?”
Pu Ke couldn’t imagine it.
If Longguo companies are really allowed to develop commercial 5G networks first, then the liquidation of the West will begin immediately.
Don’t blame others for what you did to Longguo Enterprises!
While Pou Ke was in a state of confusion, Mollenkopf had one head and two heads. Kunpeng Company wanted to abandon the Snapdragon chip, which was a devastating blow to Gaotong Company.
In the current Longguo mobile phone market, the only ones that use Snapdragon processor chips and still occupy a certain share are the flagship phones of Kunpeng Company.
Because there are three major operators helping to sell mobile phones and launching countless contract phones, the overall sales volume of Kunpeng mobile phones has always accounted for about 35% of the market.
With the loss of Kunpeng Company, Gaotong Company’s quarterly revenue will drop by at least one billion, which is unacceptable to the shareholders behind the scenes.
However, before Molenkov could feel sad, more desperate news came.
[Bricken Calgar]: "Some institutions are shorting a large number of Gaotong's shares. Has something happened to the business?"
Bricken Calgar is a shareholder of the company. , he is also a giant on Wall Street.
Now that it is getting brighter in the United States, all kinds of news are also becoming active, especially the Dragon Kingdom, which is the most concerned about the West.
Faced with questions from shareholders, Mollenkopf said patiently: "Mr. Bricken Karga, don't worry, there is absolutely no problem with the company's operation. I will give a unified reply in the future. Now I need to participate in Reina "The emergency meeting held by Toto Marotta."
Renato Marotta said his name, Bricken Calga did not ask further questions, nodded and said: "That person will attend the meeting first. , I need a perfect explanation before midnight today.”
“I know.”
Molenkov hung up.
He quickly opened his laptop and entered the specific chat software.
A moment later.
Representatives from various Western Alliance companies arrived one after another.
As the convener of the meeting, Renato Marotta had a gloomy face and went straight to the topic: "We have all been fooled by Chen Xing. He has no intention of entering the Southeast Asian market, but instead sets his sights on "What?"
Molenkov was a little out of sorts.
With him, there is Buffett, who has already made plans in Southeast Asia.
Buffett can't sit still. He has invested tens of billions of dollars in Southeast Asia and invested in hundreds of companies. Now you are telling me that Chen Xing is actually going to South Asia?
Southeast Asia and South Asia are just one word apart, but they are thousands of miles apart. The layout here is of no use to the other.
Renato Marotta continued with a sullen face: "I have just received the news, and Kunpeng Company has joined forces. They will build a large number of 4G base stations for Pakistan Railway and create intelligent intelligence for Longxing Technology. The environment for mobile phone use.”
“It really does exist.”
Shima Kuni Shin-Etsu Chemical CEO, Ono Taro immediately agreed.
He touched his beard, his eyes flashed and he said fiercely: "I think the Longguo manufacturers must have private contacts. This time it is Kunpeng Company, and next time it will be Rice Company. It is better to restrict them all at once."< br>
“I object!”
Molenkov’s expression changed drastically, and he explained his point of view: “If there is a one-time restriction, it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction in the Dragon Kingdom, and the situation may become uncontrollable. "
He is now madly cursing Taro Ono in his heart, and comprehensively restricting the mobile phone manufacturers of Longguo? Who does Gaotong sell its chips to?
"Xiba, you are so poisonous, you little Baga!" The boss of SK Hynix also cursed in his heart. If there is a comprehensive restriction, who can eat the memory chips they produce?
Korean Star Group?
People have their own memory chips.
Apple?
Grab Micron’s share? Will American companies agree?
The interest chain of the Western Alliance is complex. If it were not for a "father", they would never be able to sit down and form an alliance.
After Taro Ono stated the comprehensive restrictions, representatives continued to refute him, including Google, which provides Android systems.
"I object too."
"I object too."
......
"Guys, stop for a moment." Moving in the direction of the collapse of the talks, he immediately corrected: "Our top priority now is not to restrict other companies, but to find out the next steps of Longxing Technology and Kunpeng Company."
The words fell.
Maria, the representative of Baile Group, nodded and said: "Yes, Puke is right. We should think about the direction in which Longxing Technology will continue to develop."
Batie and the others were too late, so they could only plan ahead for the next country.
Renato Marotta nodded slightly and analyzed: "Since it is South Asia, I think there is a high probability that it is in the countries surrounding South Asia. There is a rice company in the ancient Elephant Kingdom. Do you think they will join forces?"
“Very possible.”
Buffett was the first to give the answer.
After calming down, he discovered that Chen Xing’s choice of South Asia had actually been forewarned.
I won’t say that Kunpeng Company built the base station first. The key is Rice Company. It has been operating mobile phones in the ancient Xiang Kingdom, and now it has become No. 1 in the industry!
If Chen Xing is established in Pakistan Railway, will the rice company that is already established in Ancient Xiang Kingdom help him to establish a stable position in Ancient Xiang Kingdom?
Buffet's unique vision made Renato Marotta narrow his eyes slightly and murmured: "If this is the case, the rice company will have to hammer them first and not let them connect."
As soon as he said this, Buffett immediately stopped the task and said, "Leave it to me, I still have some connections in the Ancient Elephant Kingdom."
He didn't mean this. Not for Renato Marotta, but for Martina. Only the All Seeing Society can give him what he wants.
Renato Marotta and Martina also knew what Buffett wanted, and they gave him guarantees one after another:
"The task of killing the chicken to scare the monkeys, then trouble Buffet." Mr. Special.”
“It will record your contribution.”
After receiving the promise, Buffett's eyes became extremely sharp, and his age seemed to be several years younger.
However.
That’s when.
Pu Ke hesitated for a long time, and finally told Wang Feng’s guess: “Now that it is confirmed that Longxing Technology is likely to be active in South Asia, there is one more thing I want to say, and that is that Kunpeng Company suddenly took sides. From what I know about Ren Guofei, he must have gained huge benefits."
"What is it?"
Renato Marotta was a little impatient.
“Now Kunpeng Company’s main business is 4G base station construction, and it can be attracted by Longxing Technology...”
Pou Ke only said half of it, but the companies present here The representatives all woke up.
“5G?!”
Mollenkopf gritted his teeth and said.
The only thing Longxing Technology has that can make Kunpeng Company willing to work hard and not be afraid of Western restrictions is the 5G network.
Kunpeng Company is already full of construction orders for 4G base stations. What if it is the construction of 5G base stations in the future?
Betting or not?
If they were Ren Guofei, they would definitely bet!
Because Longxing Technology holds "Millimeter Wave Information and Communication Technology", Mao Xiong's top expert Doichiman also went to Longguo.
It is basically a certainty that Longxing Technology can develop 5G. It just depends on whether it can be realized within ten years.
As the topic of 5G network extends, the video conference of the Western Alliance fell into dead silence, with each representative calculating their own interests.
The most regrettable thing is the representatives of Google. They banned the Android system. As a result, they launched the Tianxuan operating system. There is basically no possibility of cooperation in the future.
The most fortunate person here is none other than Lee Jae-yong, the helmsman of Korean Star Group.
Before the meeting started, his sister Li Zhenzhen informed him to increase his short selling efforts. Now that he has inside information, Gaotong Company is so fat that one bite will make your mouth full of oil!
