Chapter eight hundred and twelve sharpening knives

Popular recommendations: The emperor comes to Hongmeng, Heaven punishes evil, and controls the beasts: The pet beasts are just for me to bond with.

When the people's hearts are broken, it will be difficult to lead the team. What Alcatel Mobile is doing is a conspiracy, without any skills at all. It just relies on super high revenue to give out huge bonuses.

They are upright and have no skills at all. If other mobile phone manufacturers do not want to be poached, they will do the same as Alcatel Mobile and continue to increase the salary and treatment of technicians. As long as they can earn as much money as Alcatel Mobile,

I don't feel bad about tens of millions of dollars as bonus.

The entire mobile phone industry has been shaken by Alcatel's gold-dollar strategy.

After Alcatel mobile phones, Nokia, Motorola, Ericsson and other major mobile phone manufacturers also announced to increase the salary of technicians. They have no choice. If they don’t want to be poached, they can only follow Alcatel mobile phones to pay and see who has the most capital.



But other small and medium-sized mobile phone manufacturers are in bad luck. Gods fight and mortals suffer. Several major mobile phone manufacturers have increased their salaries and benefits. The first unlucky ones are these small manufacturers. They finally have a few technical talents, but they change jobs in the blink of an eye.

Or be poached away. After all, water flows to lower places and people go to higher places. Who can not be greedy when watching their peers eating meat and drinking wine!

"The mobile phone industry is undergoing a reshuffle!"

This is a comment made by the electronic technology media. The infighting among mobile phone manufacturers and the substantial increase in salaries will definitely kill a bunch of small and medium-sized mobile phone manufacturers.

Of course, correspondingly, the market share of the major mobile phone manufacturers may increase significantly, that is, the giant manufacturers will have more to eat, while the small mobile phone manufacturers may just hang on and grab a seat in the low-end mobile phone market.

eat.

This kind of thing will happen sooner or later. Even if Alcatel mobile phone is not the first to start it, it will be started by other mobile phone manufacturers. It's just that this time Alcatel mobile phone fired the first shot!

The headquarters of PA Semiconductor is located in the same park as Alcatel Mobile Phone. The Alcatel Mobile Phone Park has been expanded several times and has grown several times in size. However, a considerable part of the office buildings and laboratories have been given over to PA Semiconductor, Fortinet Antivirus, and Sega Host.

Developed and used by other companies.

When Song Yang passed by, PA Semiconductor was busy. PA is no longer an unknown person. After acquiring ARM, PA Semiconductor now provides one-stop services from processor design, research and development to production.

Even chip giants such as Texas Semiconductor and Intel dare not say that they can surpass PA Semiconductor in chip design. Instead, they may need to rely on ARM's design capabilities.

In the mobile phone processing industry, with the help of Alcatel mobile phones, PA Semiconductor has become an instant success. The PA200 processor developed for Alcatel mobile phones is already a high-end chip in the mobile phone industry, not much worse than the high-end chips supplied by Texas Instruments to Nokia.

Computer chips, PA Semiconductor is now the chip supplier for Apple computers. As long as Apple computers sell well, PA Semiconductor will naturally make money.

PA Semiconductor, now mobile phones and computer chips are in full bloom. Alcatel mobile phones and Apple computers cannot account for half of the processor industry. What other chip companies except Intel and Texas Instruments can do to compete with PA Semiconductor? Tactics

Lean back...

When Song Yang passed by, a group of PA Semiconductor executives were in a meeting, and Marcus, the general manager who was in charge of Song Yang's money bag, was also among them.

Seeing Song Yang, Marcus came out of the conference room. There was nothing polite between Song Yang and Marcus. In terms of Song Yang's worth and the property in his hands, Marcus was probably more responsible for handling Song Yang.

Greg, the legal affairs man, still needs to know more.

Only Marcus knows where and how many industries Song Yang has invested in in recent years. If those industries were reported, it would probably scare the financial media.

Not to mention other things, just talking about Yeadex, which Song Yang invested in Lao Maozi, and the Star Wishes Foundation established in China, the value of the companies he invested in has been soaring in recent years!

Only Marcus knows how many industries Song Yang has invested in besides the Internet. If the Internet industry goes into recession, it will have an impact on Song Yang's net worth, but in fact, the impact is not that big.

Marcus' hair was combed meticulously, and when he sat there, he looked like a top financial accountant. His hair was getting grayer, but Marcus' demeanor became even more extraordinary.

Since serving as Song Yangde's financial advisor, Marcus's private accounting firm has been on the rise, and powerful people from all walks of life have come to Marcus to take charge of finance.

The second richest man in America has emerged!

Even those who want to handle the finances of Marcus's accounting firm must have a certain level of worth to be qualified.

Of course, for Marcus, the most important thing is still to help Song Yang manage those finances. The salary Song Yang pays him every year alone is more than what his accounting firm makes, not to mention

It brought Marcus fame and fortune.

"The acquisition of DEC's semiconductor division is not going well?"

Song Yang asked Marcus. He just heard that Dober Poole, the president of PA Semiconductor in the conference room, was getting angry with a group of executives.

Long before Song Yang's trip to Italy, PA Semiconductor had been asked to start acquiring the DEC semiconductor department. As a result, it has been delayed until now, and the acquisition has not been completed. Obviously, it is not going well.

"DEC's asking price is too high. It's just a semiconductor department plus a brand, and now it's asking for US$1.5 billion!"

Marcus frowned and said, DEC is selling itself now, and only wants to sell it at a good price. It doesn't care about anything else. As long as it can be sold, it will be sold.

In order to sell at a high price, DEC also did a lot of tricks, recruiting Compaq, Intel, HP, IBM and even overseas manufacturers to let these manufacturers bid for DEC.

But there are no fools. Today's DEC Group has more reputation than strength. It still has many good things and its capital is there. It is okay to let these manufacturers pick up DEC and let them go crazy for DEC. That is just too much.

Already.

To put it bluntly, DEC has fallen behind. The workstation computers and minicomputers that once made it prosperous were replaced by SUN and completely defeated by IBM, HP, and Compaq.

DEC is proud of its chip department, which once competed with Intel. Now it is Wang Xiaoer's Chinese New Year. It is not as good as the previous year. This year it does not make as much money as PA Semiconductor. In this case, those manufacturers have no regard for DEC.

Quotation, naturally hesitant.

Speaking of which, DEC, which is considered an old technology giant, has not yet become popular among Internet companies. Now, it is not difficult for any Internet company to sell billions of dollars worth of it!

Hearing that DEC dared to quote such an outrageous price, Song Yang couldn't help but rubbed his brows. This was purely Zai Kaizi. DEC obviously saw the Alcatel mobile phone behind PA Semiconductor and wanted to give it to him.

Previous transaction.

"Which company is currently competing with PA Semiconductor for the DEC semiconductor department?" Song Yang asked.

Marcus said, "DEC has invited many semiconductor companies, but those semiconductor companies' bids for DEC's semiconductors are not very high. Now, the one most likely to compete with PA Semiconductor is Intel!"

After going around and around, we still end up with Intel. This troublemaker in the semiconductor industry is best at playing tricks. Even if it gets DEC's semiconductor department, it doesn't have much effect on Intel, but Intel still interferes.

, not letting other semiconductor manufacturers get it so easily.

"That old guy Palmer, he is a traitor to DEC!"

When he met Song Yang, Doberpur still cursed DEC President Palmer.

Song Yang glanced at Dobberpool. If Song Yang remembered correctly, Dobberpool was much older than Palmer.

Facing Song Yang, Doberpur felt a little embarrassed. He originally thought that he could cut through the mess quickly and get DEC's semiconductors and that brand into his pocket immediately, but who would have thought that it would take so long?

.

"That guy Palmer can't handle the guys on the DEC board of directors. They are just a bunch of vampires who want more chips!"

When it comes to DEC, Doberpur always has a tone of resentment. When he was at DEC, although there was a bit of a recession at that time, DEC was still one of the leaders in the technology industry, and it also had good reputations.

But now, it is the DEC board of directors who have brought DEC into this situation, and they actually want to make a lot of money by relying on the seller's bottom line. For this reason, they are even willing to compromise on their former enemy Intel.

"Let's make a joint acquisition. Find a company that is most interested in DEC. PA Semiconductor can join forces with it to launch an acquisition of DEC. We can also bring Intel into the acquisition group!" Song Yang said while looking at Doberpur.

Hearing that he was joining forces with his arch-rival Intel, Doberpur felt awkward.

Seeing the look on Dobopur's face, Song Yang couldn't help but shook his head. Letting technological experts like Dobopur do research and development, he is a good person, but letting them use these means to spend their time is not enough. It is too precious.

Lost face.

If it were Bill Gates, he would have hooked up with Intel and started to divide DEC.

In order to deal with Netscape, what Bill Gates and Microsoft did before was that they took the flexibility of big men to the extreme. Even their rivals SUN, AOL, etc. were able to lower their heads just to break up their alliance with Netscape.

"Intel cannot be defeated in one day. Even if we get the Alpha processor and PA Semiconductor that DEC is developing, at most it will cause some trouble for Intel. Replacing Intel is definitely not something we can do now!"

Although later generations may criticize Intel and call it a toothpaste factory, Intel is not a vegetarian in being able to become the overlord of the chip processor industry. Even if AMD and others have caused some trouble for Intel, they have not been able to make Intel a success.

Get off the horse.

Now Intel has pulled many computer manufacturers into its battle chariot, and has also formed an alliance with Microsoft. With PA's current status, it wants to challenge Intel openly, even if it is optimistic about PA Semiconductor.

No one dares to say that PA Semiconductor can win this game.

"Dr. Doberpur, this time, PA Semiconductor only needs to get the R&D personnel of DEC's semiconductor department, as well as the Alpha processor and DEC's brand. It will be a matter of the future to compete with Intel!"

"As long as Apple computers can return to the first-tier brands, PA Semiconductor and Apple form an alliance, and with the support of Alcatel mobile phones, Fortinet TV boxes, hardware firewalls and other brands, PA Semiconductor can challenge Intel in the future."

Doberpur understands what Song Yang means. Instead of fighting with Intel and finally getting cheaper from DEC, it is better for PA Semiconductor and Intel to join forces and divide DEC.

Acquiring DEC's semiconductor department will divide DEC's technology with Intel. What Intel actually values ​​is DEC's technology. Regardless of whether it is suitable for Intel, it can only be assured if it is obtained.

Although he felt uncomfortable, Doberpur still nodded and prepared to join forces with several other manufacturers to dismantle DEC and take over the DEC brand!

After coming out of the Alcatel Mobile Phone Industrial Park, Song Yang went non-stop to the ICQ headquarters and attended several meetings. After returning to San Jose, a lot of things were waiting for Song Yang to sign.

After ICQ merged with America Telecom, the integration started in a hurry. In fact, there were not many changes. In name, ICQ became the parent company of America Telecom. However, in fact, America Telecom still operated independently and transferred all its debts.

After giving it to ICQ, America Telecom is now debt-free and has issued several bonds with the help of ICQ to build lines and base stations.

ICQ is not ready to stop. It is preparing to make its accounts more beautiful, make its performance look brighter, and then start a new round of big moves.

In addition to ICQ, other companies invested by Song Yang are also somewhat ready to make a move. Double Click Company is preparing to take advantage of the Internet's turmoil to swallow up Nielsen Data Survey Company.

Whitman, who is also the president of eBay, couldn't bear it when he saw that Amazon's stock price continued to double after its listing. After Amazon's listing, it was known as the number one e-commerce stock and began to be sought after by the market.

In less than half a year, the stock price has tripled, and the market value exceeds US$2 billion!

Seeing the performance of Amazon, Song Yang was also ready to make some moves on eBay, wanting to do something big. When Whitman held a conference call with Song Yang, he mentioned eBay and wanted to join forces with PayPal to complete the listing.

At that time, e-commerce plus the concept of electronic payment, eBay's listing, will definitely detonate the market, surpass Amazon, and become the first e-commerce stock!

People's hearts are floating, not only in other Internet companies, but Song Yang is no exception. Companies such as eBay, PayPal, Feita, and Sohu that have invested in China are all ready to make moves.
Chapter completed!
