Chapter 225 Zhang Zhongmou
"Well, I'll go to the airport with you later to greet Mr. Zhang Zhongmou." Su Cheng said with a smile.
Zhang Zhongmou has unique insights into the semiconductor field. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to serve as the vice president of Texas Instruments as a Chinese, let alone later create the world's largest chip foundry company.
Since you have such an opportunity to get to know him, you can't miss it.
When Yang Chaoye said that he and Zhang Zhongmou were good friends, Su City had plans to build a semiconductor company in Xiangjiang.
Oracle Computer Company, Sioux City's vision of its future, was simply that of a computer manufacturer.
Semiconductor companies are not only useful for computers. The entire technology industry is inseparable from semiconductors.
Yang Chaoye is in charge of the Su Group and has too many subsidiaries to manage, so he may not be able to handle it all.
As for the semiconductor industry, as long as it is done well, this alone can become a world-class company.
Such as Intel, TSMC, Qualcomm, Nvidia, Texas Instruments, etc.
After a mature semiconductor company is established, the semiconductor company will be responsible for the research and development of semiconductors, and Oracle Computer Company will be responsible for the research and development of the entire machine.
"Okay, since the boss is willing to go there in person, it would be best. I will introduce you to each other." Yang Chaoye nodded after listening to Su Cheng's words.
He couldn't bear to see what happened to his friends, so he also deliberately dragged Zhang Zhongmou to Xiangjiang.
We have different paths and do not seek each other.
Since Zhang Zhongmou’s development philosophy is different from that of Texas Instruments, it would be better to resign early and find another path like him.
Speaking of which, Zhang Zhongmou also studied and lived in Xiangjiang.
"When does his flight arrive?" Su Cheng looked at the time on his watch and asked.
Now, it is about three o'clock in the afternoon.
"Arrived at 4:30 in the afternoon." Yang Chaoye replied.
"In that case, let's go." Su Cheng said with a smile.
It’s about 28 kilometers from the Metropolitan Opera House to John Fitzgerald Kennedy International Airport. Don’t look far, but it takes more than an hour to drive.
Because there are too many traffic lights on the road, and the traffic volume here is much greater than that on the Xiangjiang side, traffic jams are common.
Su Cheng and Yang Chaoye got into the car and the driver went straight to the airport.
When we arrived at John Fitzgerald Kennedy International Airport, it was already 4:15 in the afternoon.
When we arrived at the pick-up hall at the exit of the station, it didn’t take long for the time to arrive at 4:30.
After waiting for another ten minutes, people started to walk out of the station exit one after another.
Su Cheng knew that he should be a guest on Zhang Zhongmou’s flight.
As expected, soon, Yang Chaoye pointed at a middle-aged man with Asian appearance, smiled and said to Su Cheng: "Look, that is Zhang Zhongmou."
At the same time, he also raised a He started waving his hands.
Zhang Zhongmou also discovered them soon.
In fact, there are relatively few Chinese people in this airport, and they are basically all white or black.
So, whether Su Cheng looked at Zhang Zhongmou or Zhang Zhongmou looked at Su Cheng, he could see the other person at a glance.
"Brother Chaoye, long time no see!" Zhang Zhongmou pulled a suitcase over and greeted Yang Chaoye with a smile. "Yes, Zhongmou. Counting the time, it has been almost a year since we last met in Los Angeles!" Yang Chaoye said with some emotion.
Judging from their names, Su Cheng knew that the relationship between the two was indeed a very good friendship.
"This should be your boss, right?" Zhang Zhongmou turned to Su Cheng and asked Yang Chaoye.
"Hello, Mr. Zhang, I am Su Cheng, and Mr. Yang is my partner." Su Cheng smiled and stretched out his hand to shake hands with him.
"Mr. Su is really young and promising. He is the only one in the world who has worked hard to achieve such a big career at such a young age." Zhang Zhongmou admired.
"No, it's just good luck." Su Cheng said modestly.
“Judging from the history of your fortune, it doesn’t look like you relied on luck at all!” Zhang Zhongmou said with a smile.
If you want to check some of Su Cheng's superficial family history, you can still find it, so some media have already dug into him and continued to report on it.
Zhang Zhongmou, a good friend's new boss, has naturally paid attention to him, so he still has some knowledge of Su City's details.
"Stop chatting now. There are many people and things here. Let's go back to the hotel first, and then we can chat slowly." Yang Chaoye said with a smile.
“That’s right, let’s go then.” Zhang Zhongmou nodded and said.
Seating in the car driven by Su City's bodyguard driver, they returned to Times Square again, and naturally checked into the hotel where Yang Chaoye stayed.
After arranging accommodation, it was already six o'clock in the evening.
So, Su Cheng, Yang Chaoye and Zhang Zhongmou went to a nearby Chinese restaurant to have dinner together.
Chen Ji Chinese Restaurant is a well-known restaurant nearby, with a lot of repeat customers. When Su Cheng and others entered the restaurant, they found that not only Chinese people were dining here, but also many foreigners.
“Give me a private room.” Yang Chaoye said to the restaurant manager in Chinese skillfully.
"Okay, here are some distinguished guests." With a smile on his face, the manager led Su Cheng and others to a private room.
I saw the words Cuizhuju on the door of the box.
Su Cheng looked at the names of nearby private rooms, such as Ruoshitang, Juhuaju, Qiushuitang, Millennium Gate, Yiyamen, Guxiangtang, etc. They are full of Chinese flavor.
The bodyguards were also eating their dinner at Ruoshitang nearby.
There will be a bodyguard standing guard outside the passage.
"Brother Chao Ye, what kind of product launch are you holding that is so mysterious?" Zhang Zhongmou couldn't help but ask after ordering.
"I can't tell you yet. Anyway, it's almost time for the press conference. You'll know tomorrow. In short, it's a cross-generational product. After it's released, I'm sure you'll be surprised." Yang Chaoye still didn't reveal it, but said with a smile. .
"Hey, well, it's so mysterious. If it weren't for the fact that you are my brother, I wouldn't have come over!" Zhang Zhongmou said helplessly.
"Mr. Zhang, I would like to ask, what do you think of the future prospects of the semiconductor industry?" Su Cheng asked from the side.
“The semiconductor industry will definitely be the most important industry in the technology industry in the future. I am very optimistic about companies like Intel. Even though Intel’s current market value is very low, in the future, as long as it continues to develop steadily, It will definitely become a world-class enterprise like IBM and Texas Instruments," Zhang Zhongmou said with certainty.
"Why do you think so? Intel is just a company with a market value of tens of millions of dollars now. Can it really develop into a super company like IBM with a market value of more than 20 billion U.S. dollars?" Su Cheng said with a smile.
Regardless of the fact that Intel is now famous all over the world with several processor products, in fact, compared with IBM, they are not at the same level of companies, and the gap is very big.
“Because they attach great importance to investment in semiconductors, and they have many big names in the semiconductor industry, such as processors and memories. They currently have leading technologies. Although they currently have There are not many products developed yet, but it can be seen that their potential is huge!" Zhang Zhongmou said directly.
