Soon, Hongxin Company released news that they were discussing cooperation matters with Thunderstorm Home Appliances. They wanted to invest in Thunderstorm Home Appliances and enter the field of smart home appliances.
It was just a rumor, but it attracted the attention of many people.
"Hongxin is going to enter smart home appliances? Yes, it's possible. Their company has indeed been making smart products. "
"Thunderstorm Home Appliances? This company seems to be ordinary. Does Hongxin want to buy them? "
"Hongxin Company has never been listed, but Thunderstorm Home Appliances is a listed company. Hongxin Company has developed to this point, and they have done almost everything. They are very powerful. From the looks of it, this company has a bright future! They can invest! "In the capital market, some investors with keen senses smelled something.
However, this news was just a rumor. Hongxin Company did not officially announce this matter. Moreover, this matter was only an intention and had not been implemented. However, some people found out through their connections that this matter was indeed being discussed.
Immediately, those investors set their sights on Thunderstorm Home Appliances' shares. If they bought Thunderstorm Home Appliances' shares now, if Hongxin really invested in this company, wouldn't it rise greatly in the future? Then, they would take the opportunity to make a fortune?
There were many people who had such thoughts.
When the stock exchange holiday ended a few days after the Spring Festival, people suddenly realized that Thunderstorm Home Appliances' shares had become a hot stock, and the increase was astonishing.
As for the shareholders of Thunderstorm Home Appliances, they realized that the shares in their hands had suddenly become valuable!
And all of this was because of a rumor released by Hongxin Company! If Hongxin really invested in them, the value of these shares would skyrocket!
Even if they had to transfer a portion of their shares to Hongxin Company according to the acquisition agreement, the value of the remaining shares would far exceed what they had before.
This time, these shareholders were all tempted. Without even needing Su Xu to say anything, all of them took the initiative to ask about this matter and even wanted to promote this matter.
Nie Guanglin, who had been hesitant, also sensed everyone's wishes. If he objected, everyone would not agree.
Fortunately, he took advantage of the situation. After the Spring Festival holiday, Thunderstorm Home Appliances' first meeting was to discuss this matter.
There were almost no obstacles. Everyone agreed to transfer a portion of their shares and let Hongxin take over Thunderstorm Home Appliances.
Lu Zixin left these matters to Su Zhirong.
After the two sides reached an agreement, Su Xu, Lu Zixin's father-in-law, naturally became the new CEO of Thunderstorm Home Appliances. The original Nie Guanglin was the vice president, in charge of the business of traditional home appliances.
Some former Hongxin Group employees had also joined the company's management team. Lu Zixin also attended the first management meeting of the new company.
There were more than twenty people present, and most of them were former employees of Thunderstorm Home Appliances. This was the first time they were meeting the leader of Hongxin Group, Lu Yan.
Seeing that the legendary Lu Yan was so young, everyone was a little surprised.
Lu Zixin briefly introduced himself and began to talk about the company's key development issues.
"Many of you should be wondering why Hongxin is buying Thunderstorm Home Appliances. Are you interested in this company's potential? "
"No, that's not it. To be honest, in the field of home appliances, Thunderstorm Home Appliances' potential was not outstanding. Hongxin made this decision because they saw a group of forward-looking people in Thunderstorm Home Appliances. For example, the current CEO, Mr. Su, and some employees. "
"Smart home appliances are the trend of the future! Thunderstorm Home Appliances' future development direction is smart home appliances! Whether it's air conditioners, washing machines, televisions, microwaves, and other home appliances, we have to work hard to make them smart. "
"We can even make a perfect smart home system and let smart service life. Thunderstorm Home Appliances will become an internationally renowned brand! "
Hearing him say this, many people were still a little confused. Although some of them knew about smart home appliances, they were not very professional in this field.
Thunderstorm Home Appliances' biggest problem was that they did not have their own research and development ability. Many of their core technologies came from licensing and cooperation with other channels. A smart speaker had been developed for two years and did not have any results.
"Do you have anything to say?" Lu Zixin saw that everyone did not understand and asked.
Everyone looked at each other and did not know what to say. They looked at Nie Guanglin, and Nie Guanglin represented everyone to ask. "General Lu, what you said makes sense, but I have to ask based on the current situation."
"Go ahead." Lu Zixin said.
Nie Guanglin said. "Our company does not have our own core technologies now, and we have spent a lot of money just to research ordinary home appliances. We do not have extra money and technology to invest in research and development."
"You mentioned to make Thunderstorm Home Appliances an internationally renowned brand. Then I would like to mention Geli Home Appliances Co., Ltd."
Nie Guanglin said as he looked at the data on his laptop.
"In the field of home appliances, they should be considered as a giant in China, and they are also well-known internationally."
"And according to the data announced by Force Appliances last year, they have more than ten thousand researchers, two national technical research centers, one national industrial design center, one provincial enterprise key laboratory, nine research institutes, fifty-two research institutes, and more than seven hundred laboratories … In addition, they have the world's largest air-conditioning research and development center, and the only national energy-saving and environmental protection refrigeration equipment engineering research center in the Chinese refrigeration industry."
"They have invested more than 4 billion RMB in research and development in a year! It is almost equivalent to the total market value of Thunderstorm Home Appliances half a month ago! "
"Compared to them, our company's R&D resources are almost zero, and our R&D funding is also very tight. I think these grand goals are a bit too far away."
His words basically represented the views of some of the older employees in the company. Although Hongxin entering Thunderstorm Home Appliances made them earn a lot of money in the stock market, but in terms of internal management, many of them were still conservative.
Lu Zixin smiled and said, "It seems that everyone still does not understand Hongxin's strength. Let me tell you something practical."
"We are not making smart home appliances for fun, we are taking out real swords and guns."
"This year, we plan to invest an additional 5 billion RMB, all for research and development!"
The moment Lu Zixin opened his mouth, he said five billion, which shocked everyone. An additional 5 billion RMB investment will definitely dilute their shares, but the actual value will increase.
"Is there really 5 billion?" Nie Guanglin asked in surprise.
"If 5 billion is not enough, we can continue to invest." Lu Zixin said calmly. In any case, the company would become his, and he would not feel bad about investing in research and development.
