HK874 AMD shareholders take the initiative to make concessions! [1st Anniversary]
Jade Building, 38th floor.
Shi Lei sat on Mu Shuang's desk, picked up the information prepared by Mu Shuang, and started reading it casually.
Mu Shuang was sitting on the ergonomic health chair, with a calm and indifferent smile on her delicate face, "Shi Lei, although you know very little about business, I believe you can understand this information.
clear!"
Shi Lei originally just flipped through it casually, but after Mu Shuang reminded him, he slowly started reading. The information prepared by Mu Shuang started from the front and introduced the basic situation of AMD.
Since the beginning of the new millennium, AMD has been operating at a loss. Under normal circumstances, world-renowned companies rarely suffer losses. High-tech manufacturing companies like AMD have been operating at a loss for six consecutive years.
Simply unbelievable.
In the field of personal computers, there are only two companies operating in the central processing unit (CPU) market. Leaving aside wntel, they are AMD. In such a semi-monopoly industry, AMD is actually operating at a loss, which is quite shocking!
In fact, AMD is inferior to untel in terms of technology, and it adopts the framework authorized by wntel. Therefore, AMD's products have inherently lower profit margins than untM's products. In addition, in terms of market share around the world
, Intel took the overall lead, suppressing AHRD, causing AMD to suffer losses every year.
Up to now, AMD has owed approximately one billion U.S. dollars in payments to various upstream raw material manufacturers. If the antitrust laws of the United States government had not been in effect, AMD would have collapsed!
Dream Entertainment acquired AMD, and almost the entire upstream supply chain of AMD was cheering. Dream Entertainment has a lot of money. After taking over AMD, AMD's arrears of payment should be returned, right?
ABRD's upstream supply chain merchants have actually wanted to urge AMD to repay the money, but AMD just doesn't have the money and can't pay it back even if it wants to.
Shi Lei looked through all the information roughly, with a relieved expression on his face. Shi Lei actually knew that AHRD had been losing money, but Shi Lei didn't know that AMD's losses were so serious.
"Shuangshuang, based on AMD's losses, their shareholders have not paid dividends for seven years. What you mean is that as long as we can lead AMD out of the predicament, whether it is AMD's top management shareholders or grassroots workers, they will all
Express your welcome attitude?" Shi Lei put down the information in his hand.
Mu Shuang nodded and said: "That's right! As long as we can lead AMD out of the predicament, even if we ask AMD's management shareholders to dilute their shareholding ratio, they will agree. No matter how many stocks there are, if there is no circulation value and
The dividend value is actually just a pile of paper!"
Shi Lei said with deep emotion: "AMD has withdrawn from the Nasdaq stock exchange. Before it was relisted, the stocks representing the ownership of AMD were indeed very cheap."
"Sr. Xiao Bo sent a message that all seven shareholders of AMD have completed their discussions and agreed to hold an online video conference. The system automatically arranged the online conference. You only need to participate in the meeting." Yi Zuer's voice sounded in the Bluetooth headset,
Reminding Shi Lei.
Shi Lei pressed the Bluetooth headset and responded: "I know, I will deal with it later!" After saying that, Shi Lei hung up the connection with Yizuer and explained to Mu Shuang: "Shuangshuang, what happened just now?
The company’s personnel reported to me about Li Jianguo’s affairs. We can now conduct online video conferences with AMD’s senior shareholders.”
Mu Shuang stood up, did not refuse Shi Lei, and followed Shi Lei into the conference room of Dream Entertainment Company. The projector in the conference room had been controlled by Yi Zuer, and Yi Zuer projected light on the huge projection cloth.
It is divided into nine small square light screens. However, only eight small square light screens display content, indicating that the image information is waiting to be loaded. The small square light screen in the lower right corner does not have any feedback information about image loading.
The small grid light screen split screen in the lower left corner lit up, and Xiao Bo's familiar figure appeared in the small grid light screen split screen in the lower left corner of the projection screen.
"Boss, what you told us has been completed. All seven shareholders of AMD have agreed to start an online video conference. Boss, are you ready?" Xiao Bo said excitedly: "Boss, today we will
We will take down ABRD and make AMD a subsidiary of our dream entertainment company!"
Shi Lei also said with an excited tone, "Xiao Bo, have you sent the corresponding online video conference address to the seven shareholders of AMD?"
"Boss, how could I make a mistake on such a small matter?" Xiao Bo said with certainty, "I guarantee that every shareholder of AMD will receive the message I sent. As for what they will choose, boss, I
I believe they will all come. AMD's situation is a little worse than we imagined.
Just as Mu Shuang and Xiao Bo predicted, all seven shareholders and executives of ABRD appeared on the light screen projected by Yizuer. When all AMD shareholders arrived, Shi Lei also connected to the online video conference
Address, but in a light screen square at the bottom right, Shi Lei's image did not appear, but a black background and white mark appeared - 'SaundOnly,' which means that there is only a sound link! No image
information.
Faced with Shi Lei's threats, AMD's seven shareholders expressed neither dissatisfaction nor objection. Only Tom, the senior vice president who is most familiar with Dream Entertainment.
Crusi was the first to ask: "Mr. Shi, why don't you show up?"
Shi Lei chuckled and said: "Mr. Tom, there are some technical problems in the line, and the image information cannot be transmitted temporarily. Okay, let's not talk about these minor problems, let's discuss the future of AMD."
ABRD's current president Dirk.
Mayer first spoke: "Dear Mr. Shi, before discussing the future fate of AMD, I have a question to ask you."
"What's the problem?" Shi Lei didn't care about Dirk.
Mayer, the unruly inquiry, I'm afraid Dirk.
Mayer's issue should be of concern to all senior AMD shareholders.
Dirk.
Mayer paused for a moment, sorted out his words and tone, and then asked as calmly as possible: "Dear Mr. Shi, do you plan to move AMD to Xia? If you want to move AMD to Xia,
The problem arising from this is definitely not..."
Shi Lei interrupted Dirk.
Mayer's question, "Mr. Dirk, please forgive me, I have to interrupt your inquiry. We, Dream Entertainment Company, have never thought of moving AMD to Xiaguo. All the current status of AMD remains intact."
Keep it. It is our Dream Entertainment Company that acquired AMD, not the Xia government. All previous information about AMD were all rumors spread by the news media."
In the picture of the projected video conference, Dirk.
Mayer's expression was relieved, "So that's it, then I don't have any problem!"
Answered Dirk.
After Mayer's question, Chief Technical Engineer Atwood.
Irvine, then with an unquestionable tone, suddenly asked: "Mr. Shi, I am Atwood Irvine, the technical chief engineer of AMD. Everyone calls me Old Irvine, if Mr. Shi doesn't mind
, you can also call me that. I just want to ask Mr. Shi, what attitude will you use towards the technology development department after you and Dream Entertainment take over AMD?"
Atwood.
Ai Wen just finished asking. He seemed to realize that his tone was wrong and bowed to show his respect. Then he continued: "Mr. Shi, let's put it in a more straightforward way. How much will you invest in the technical research department?"
R&D funding?”
Atwood, who is in charge of the technology development department.
Alvin is very concerned about this issue. If Shi Lei gives too little research funding, he will have to find another way to make a living.
Shi Lei glanced at the projection screen and saw Atwood.
The image of Ivan said with a smile: "Old Ivan, I can only guarantee one thing, that is, your technology research and development department will obtain great authority during the period when Dream Entertainment is in charge of AMD, and every year
The research funding will not be less than what you invested in the research before! If you make some achievements, we will only provide more research funding."
After answering two questions again, we finally entered the formal discussion of AMD's future and destiny. At this stage, Shi Lei returned the negotiating rights to Mu Shuang. Mu Shuang was far more powerful than Shi Lei in business negotiations!
Shi Lei listened to Mu Shuang's negotiations and couldn't help showing admiration. When Mu Shuang started working, she seemed to be a real queen. She could easily negotiate with the seven shareholders of AMD.
The seven shareholders of AMD originally demanded 25% of the shares, that is, they would not give up any of the shares in their hands. However, half an hour later, the seven shareholders of AMD only asked for 100% of the shares.
Fifteen percent of the shares and the remaining 10% of the shares were given directly to Dream Entertainment without Dream Entertainment paying even one cent.
Shi Lei almost agreed to this plan, but Mu Shuang quickly stopped Shi Lei and continued to negotiate with the seven shareholders of AMD. After another half hour, the seven shareholders of AMD gave up 5% of their shares again.
They only hold 10% of the shares.
This result was almost the most ideal result in Shi Lei's imagination. But Mu Shuang was not satisfied yet and continued to negotiate with AMD's seven shareholders.
Shi Lei felt dizzy. Is this the power of professionals?
If Shi Lei had been allowed to negotiate on his own, he would probably have been persuaded by the seven shareholders of AMD!
'My Lady Queen, why are you so powerful?' Shi Lei looked at Mu Shuang's smooth and jade-like side face, and a happy smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, because such a powerful Lady Queen also belongs to him!
Shi Lei is greedy. If you look at Shi Lei from a secular perspective, you can criticize Shi Lei as a playboy. But Shi Lei is sincere to every girl. Who can say that Shi Lei is just a vulgar scumbag who plays with women's emotions?
'Your Majesty Queen, we will go to the end together!' Shi Lei looked at Mu Shuang who was fully involved in the negotiation with a firm gaze, and silently made a promise in his heart...
