Xing Hai Technologies actually invested in Qualcomm and became the major shareholder of this high-tech company.
This was a very surprising matter, and there were many discussions on the Internet.
"A few years ago, Broadcom intended to acquire Qualcomm. The offer was as high as 130 billion US dollars, but it was coldly rejected by Qualcomm. Now, it happily accepted Xing Hai Technologies' investment and sold itself at a very cheap price. Does it mean that the betrothal gifts will be lesser if one is handsome? "
"F * ck, 80 billion yuan. It's not even 15 billion US dollars, and he's taking away 40% of the shares. Isn't that too cheap?"
"Xing Hai Technologies has picked up a great bargain. Tens of thousands of communication patents will be used for free. Of course, Qualcomm will not lose out either. After getting close to Xing Hai Technologies, the benefits that Qualcomm will obtain will far exceed the shares that it took out."
"This isn't right. What Xing Hai Technologies is doing is not right at all. Initially, we were happy working with Hua Yao, but now our baby is unhappy."
"Hua Yao: Hai Hai, we were having such a good time just now. In the blink of an eye, you're suspicious of me. You're not good, you're not good. I'm punching your chest with my little fists."
"Hua Yao: Yesterday you were still calling me Xiao Tiantian, but today you're calling me Mrs. Hua. You heartless heartless man."
"Hua Yao: Haihai, please don't leave me. We need to continue being each other's angels."
The netizens were all making fun of it. It was originally a very normal business news, but with the help of a few experienced drivers, it suddenly became dirty.
Of course, public opinion generally agreed that Xing Hai Technologies' decision was wise. They had entered the huge communications industry with very low costs and directly inserted themselves into it.
Some commentators even pointed out that Qualcomm had given up 40% of its shares at a price that was significantly lower than the market price. It was also an attempt to cling tightly to Xing Hai Technologies in this way, and then use the strength of Xing Hai Technologies to join forces to snatch Hua Yao's market share. One had to admit that Qualcomm's move was indeed very sinister.
Of course, Hua Yao also saw this point.
Therefore, on the day when Qualcomm and Xing Hai Technologies announced that they had reached a strategic partnership, the mobile phone in Ling Jun Dong's pocket rang.
He received a phone call.
It was a call from Zhao Ming, the CEO of Huayao.
It was obvious that Zhao Ming was very angry on the other side of the phone.
"President Ling, why didn't you discuss such an important matter with us? Even if they didn't want to discuss it, they should at least inform him in advance, right? You have quietly reached an agreement with Qualcomm, causing rumors and speculations on the Internet. There are even rumors that the relationship between Hua Yao and Galaxy has broken down. In fact, I don't care about these speculations, but we are all companies from Z country. We must be united and not let outsiders laugh at us. "
"I'm sorry, President Zhao. I'm very sorry."
Ling Jun Dong apologized profusely. "It's our fault for not considering it thoroughly. We really should have notified them in advance, but we didn't pay too much attention to this problem and neglected it. I'm sorry again."
Zhao Ming became even angrier. "How could you ignore such an important matter? It was not a problem for Xing Hai Technologies to collaborate with any company. Hua Yao would not interfere, but they must pay attention to the influence of the internet. They must pay attention to unity! What's more, Xing Hai Technologies is the founder of the 'Star Alliance' and the 'Star Brain Alliance.' It is the leader of the alliance. How can you ignore this problem? "
"Yes, yes, yes, unity. Our Z country's enterprises must be united!"
Ling Dong Jun repeatedly expressed his agreement and promised, "We will not make such a mistake again. Xing Hai Technologies will abide by our obligations as the leader of the alliance and will never destroy the unity!"
Only then did Zhao Ming stop being relentless.
They bickered with each other for a while and played Tai Chi for a while.
In the end, Zhao Ming could not bear it anymore. He had to say, "President Ling, I think it's better to cancel your collaboration with Qualcomm. Don't collaborate with foreigners. It's too much to fork out 80 billion in one go. It's better to give this money to Hua Yao. Hua Yao will give 5% of our shares to Xing Hai Technologies. Xing Hai Technologies will be able to use tens of thousands of Hua Yao's communication patents for free. President Ling, don't be muddle-headed when it comes to major issues. "
"I know, I know."
Ling Jun Dong smiled bitterly and said, "But the contract has already been signed. Quite a lot of the 80 billion in cash has been transferred over. The liquidated damages are very high. We really can't break the contract."
But in his heart, he was complaining. President Zhao, are you bullying us because we are not good at mathematics? Between 5% of the shares and 40% of the shares, any smart person would know which to choose.
Speaking of unity, Qualcomm was also considered a Z country company. Other than the main executives, more than 90% of the employees and technical personnel of this company were Z people. The Z people also held the majority of the shares. There was no need to be too entangled with this problem.
"Liquidated damages? How about Hua Yao lend you some money to help pay for the liquidated damages? President Ling, give your President Chen a call. Don't be muddle-headed. Really, don't be muddle-headed. "Zhao Ming was still unwilling to give up.
"I know, I know. I'll give President Chen a call."
Ling Jun Dong shook his head and brushed off the other party perfunctorily. Then, he hung up the phone.
In fact, one did not need to think much to know that if Xing Hai Technologies only cooperated deeply with Hua Yao, it would make Hua Yao more and more powerful in the field of communication technology. In the end, it would defeat all its competitors and become a monopolistic giant. It would not be good for anyone. If Hua Yao wanted to play rogue, no one would be able to stop it. This was somewhat alarmist talk. But who could predict the future?
It was unknown how many people had evolved from kind-hearted heroes to evil demons.
It was still better to have some competitors in the market.
Therefore, Xing Hai Technologies would always hold the card of Qualcomm in their hands.
…
Other than that.
The news of Xing Hai Technologies' investment in Qualcomm also quickly spread abroad.
A 23-year-old young man, Tom Bruce, noticed the news on a portal.
He was immediately taken aback.
"Our best technology company has been bought by the Z people?"
"The buyer? Or is it the giant pirate Xing Hai Technologies who stole our most advanced 'intelligent learning technology'?"
"Damn it! That abominable company from the Z country has already stolen our top technology. Now, they want to use the money earned from these technologies to buy our Qualcomm? "
Tom Bruce felt that he was about to lose his temper. A voice in his heart shouted, "Despicable Xing Hai Technologies, quickly stop!"
In the process of resisting the comments, Tom Bruce not only saw similar complaints, but also saw a post that was forwarded from an unknown source.
The title of the post was "The traitor of the M country, a detailed count of Qualcomm's three sins."
After reading the content of the post, Tom Bruce's eyes widened. His breathing became heavy, and his chest rose and fell violently.
The post said:
"Qualcomm is a traitor! He sold his body and soul to the Z people! "
"Our Fruit Company was once the world's largest mobile phone company. The Fruit Company sold 40 million Fruit mobile phones in the Z country's market every year. At least 100 million Z people were fanatical fans of the Fruit mobile phone, bringing us tens of billions of profits every year. But Qualcomm used groundless patent lawsuits to let the Z country find an excuse to ban the Fruit, causing us to lose hundreds of billions of dollars. Although the Z country eventually lifted the ban, the lost market share could no longer be recovered. Now, the Fruit mobile phone market share in the Z country is less than 1%. It was Qualcomm that made our proudest technology company fall in the Z country. "
"Last year, in order to please the Z country's masters, Qualcomm moved its headquarters to the Z country. What's more surprising is that Qualcomm's 5G chip only charges 5% patent fees in the Z country, but 8.5% in the M country. That's right, Qualcomm's chips are more expensive in the M country than in the Z country. Qualcomm is using our money to subsidize the Z people!"
"Now, Qualcomm has sold itself to the Z people. It has given tens of thousands of patented technologies developed by the engineers of the M country to the Z people, making the Z people stronger in the field of communication technology. It has allowed the Z people to use those technologies to steal our privacy more unscrupulously."
"Qualcomm has destroyed our great Fruit Company; used our money to subsidize the Z people; gave tens of thousands of patents developed by the engineers of the M country to the Z people. This company has done countless things that we can't imagine. In the Z country, it even has the title of 'The Conscience of the Empire'. The executives of this company are all Asians in white skin! "
"My friends, what should we do? What should we do about such a company?"
Boom …
Tom Bruce's eyes turned red when he saw this.
His body trembled violently, and his face was flushed.
He placed his trembling hands on the keyboard and quickly typed a line of words, letting out his angry roar.
He roared, "I swear, I will never buy any products related to Qualcomm in the future!"
