207 Three sentences

 On November 23, TSMC sued SMIC in the United States.

That night, many senior managers of SMIC were recalled to Shanghai.

That night, Goldman Sachs and Deutsche Bank, as shareholders of SMIC, actively mobilized their contacts to try to confirm more real news.

That night, the entire domestic semiconductor industry was shaken. Even competitors such as Huahong, which was also in Shanghai, had been wiped out of their glory since SMIC moved into Shanghai. The moment they learned the news, they felt sad.

Huajing and Huahong both came into being. Although they were bloated with state-owned assets and had shortcomings of one kind or another, they were all aiming at the goal of progressing the domestic semiconductor industry from the beginning.

Now that Huajing is bankrupt and the cooperation between Huahong and NEC has collapsed, SMIC's vigorous development has brought extremely rare vitality, which is obvious to all.

SMIC is like the sun at eight or nine o'clock in the morning in the semiconductor industry. At this time, it is suddenly obscured by thick dark clouds. Although no more information has been disclosed, when the industry hears TSMC's move, they subconsciously feel that SMIC may not have a chance of winning.

high.

SMIC has always been developing at an astonishingly fast pace.

Everything has its own objective laws. What is behind the amazing speed?

This has led many people to have vague speculations. Now it seems that TSMC's bold attack seems to have provided proof.

Also that night, IDG Xiong Xiaoge and Goldman Sachs Xu Kaiwei all flew to Shanghai from other countries. They first confirmed with Deutsche Bank Zhang Hongli and DCM Connor, and then decided to hold a meeting with Fang Zhuo at Hang Lung 23 to evaluate the situation.

The possible impact of litigation.

This was a request from the four major shareholders. Fang Zhuo could not refuse, nor did he intend to refuse.

Because Xu Kaiwei of Goldman Sachs returned from abroad, in order to prevent him from missing the meeting, the time was set at ten o'clock in the morning, which was enough to ensure his normal flight arrival.

Fang Zhuo has held very frequent meetings recently. Although the nature of this time is different, it is not the first time.

The conference room of Hang Lung 23 has been slightly decorated, with green plants that make people feel happy, and chocolate, milk, and happy water. It is said that these are foods that can make people happy.

In any case, no matter what kind of impact the semiconductor industry faces, Fang Zhuo hopes that everyone can be relatively decent under this impact.

At nine o'clock in the morning, some shareholders arrived early.

Xiong Xiaoge, President of IDG China, arrived at Hang Lung 23 with his team.

Fang Zhuo and the CEO were old friends, but it was rare to see him with such a cold expression.

How would you describe his posture today?

Xiong Ziyingfa.

Xiong Xiaoge almost broke in with someone and saw Fang Zhuo, who was waiting at the door of the CEO's office after receiving the news.

With a wave of his hand, everyone at IDG stopped, and then he walked into the office alone.

The people from IDG didn't go in, but many people from Yike came in after them. When Xiong Xiaoge's subordinates saw Yike entering, they hesitated for two seconds and followed them into the office.

Everyone is familiar with the CEO office of Yike, and people on both sides feel like they are home.

Xiong Xiaoge squinted: "What? You can't understand my gestures? What are you doing here?"

Hearing what the president said, the IDG people hurried out before shouting "Mr. Fang".

It's okay, the reception room outside is also very familiar, and it's like going home. The tea must be Huangshan Maofeng or West Lake Longjing, the cigarettes must be Soft Box Chinese or Green Box Panda, and the snacks and snacks must be delicious.

However, the people from IDG went out, but the people from Yike didn't move at all.

"What? President Fangda is still afraid that I will pour gasoline on you?" Xiong Xiaoge sneered.

"That's not true. The main reason is that I'm afraid you'll stab me with a knife." Fang Zhuo confirmed that Old Xiong still had some sense, waved his hand and let him go out. Seeing that Su Wei was still there, he also gave her a look.

Su Wei finally walked out of the office and gently closed the door.

boom!

Before the door was closed, a sound came out and was heard by people who had not gone far outside.

Everyone looked at each other, and then they went to the reception room to drink tea as if nothing happened.

There are only two people left in the President's Office.

Two people who hate each other, appreciate each other, and harvest in one direction.

Xiong Xiaoge didn't hide his emotions at all. He didn't sit down and scolded with a smile: "Fang Zhuo, you have a deceptive face."

Fang Zhuo shrugged and said directly: "I told you about SMIC's listing prospects."

Xiong Xiaoge gritted his teeth: "You deliberately misled my judgment!"

Fang Zhuo shrugged and said again: "I told you about SMIC's listing prospects."

Xiong Xiaoge was angry: "You have done malicious financing more than once! More than once!"

Fang Zhuo shrugged and continued to emphasize: "I told you about SMIC's listing prospects."

Xiong Xiaoge glared: "Can you say something else?!"

Fang Zhuo thought for a while and asked with concern: "You don't have any recording equipment with you, do you?"

Xiong Xiaoge: "..."

Oh, yes, why didn’t I think of bringing a recording device to record these words so that others could see his face?!

He was annoyed and sneered: "Are you also afraid of being recorded?"

"Yes." Fang Zhuo sighed, "I never knew that a person should be responsible for his keen vision."

Xiong Xiaoge: "..."

Fang Zhuo continued: "It's as if I forced TSMC to sue SMIC. If I had that ability, what kind of ice core would I make? I am also a victim."

Xiong Xiaoge: "..."

Fang Zhuo spread his hands melancholy: "I have always had a close relationship with Mr. Zhang from SMIC. This time TSMC is coming aggressively and intends to undermine the development of the mainland's semiconductor industry. I called Mr. Zhang and we are all very angry."

Xiong Xiaoge threw the phone at Fang Zhuo without saying a word.

Fang Zhuo almost didn't catch it and looked at Old Xiong in confusion, not understanding what it meant.

Xiong Xiaoge said calmly: "Fight, now call Zhang Rujing, turn on the voiceover."

Fang Zhuo put his cell phone on the table: "Although I didn't get through Mr. Zhang's call last night, both of us are indeed angry about TSMC's behavior."

He stressed: "Everyone who is interested in developing domestic semiconductors is angry about this, and I am no exception, even more angry, because I know what SMIC will be like if it continues to develop."

Xiong Xiaoge has seen through Fang Zhuo: "He is full of righteousness."

"If you agree with my judgment on the prospects of SMIC's listing, you should also agree with my judgment on the extent to which it can develop without being hindered." Fang Zhuo said with reason.

Xiong Xiaoge no longer wanted to engage in unnecessary verbal disputes. He looked directly into Fang Zhuo's eyes: "President Fangda, you have to thank society. The rule of law society has saved you."

Fang Zhuo's shoulders hurt a little as he shrugged.

Xiong Xiaoge continued: "I thought that you had done everything possible, but I didn't expect that there would be another level."

"I have emphasized many times that we should learn from Japan and South Korea. We must learn from how Japan and South Korea have developed." Fang Zhuo didn't care about such accusations. "Old Xiong, since you have come to this meeting early, let's learn from it."

Just unify our thoughts, Bing Xin must keep on walking on thin ice bravely and not be discouraged when encountering setbacks!”

Xiong Xiaoge shook his head: "Fang Zhuo, others regard you as their friend, do you regard others as your friend?"

Fang Zhuo said without changing his expression: "Of course, but public is public and private is private."

Xiong Xiaoge nodded and said: "Okay, Mr. Fang, you are right, the public is public. From now on, we will do everything to the public and never to the private."

Fang Zhuo was surprised, why is Old Xiong so angry? He has no friends anymore? This is not the first time.

He tentatively said: "Old Xiong, I will treat you to a drink tonight to make amends to you."

Xiong Xiaoge said calmly: "That's enough, Mr. Fang, you are you and I am me. Your skills are great and I am convinced. From now on, you will walk your sunny path and I will walk my single-plank bridge."

Fang Zhuo was speechless.

Xiong Xiaoge emphasized again: "Remember, you are you, I am me, not friends, not enemies, just strangers, business is business."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and left Yike's CEO office. It was boring. This friend was boring.

Fang Zhuo watched Xiong Xiaoge open the door, thought for two seconds, and shouted at the back of the IDG China President: "According to the law, you are the director of our Bingxin, don't forget."

Xiong Xiaoge didn’t even look back, he was just a strange director.

Fang Zhuo raised his voice again: "Are you going to ring the Nasdaq bell at Yike?"

Xiong Xiaoge kept walking, ringing the bell in a strange way.

Fang Zhuo raised his voice again and shouted the third sentence: "I..."

boom!

Xiong Xiaoge closed the office door forcefully.

On this night and along the way, he reflected on his career as never before and determined one thing: he must trust his own judgment.

Now, Xiong Xiaoge made a judgment.

Can't hear it.

Fang Zhuo couldn't hear the third sentence.

If you listen to it again, you’ll have to stop!

I’m here for a meeting today, not to make friends!
