“Lianxiang creates the largest merger and acquisition of Chinese enterprises in the first half of the year!”
"Lianxiang acquired Motorola's smartphone business from Google for US$1.5 billion. This is another major acquisition since the acquisition of IBM's personal computer business."
"Lianxiang Chairman Yang Yuanqing said: Lianxiang's acquisition of Motorola is a key step towards the internationalization of the smartphone business, and it will rise to the forefront of the world. In the future, it will join forces with Logic, Shenzhou and HTC to become a new force in domestic mobile phone brands.
, to jointly compete with international brands such as Samsung and Apple.”
On the TV, relevant financial news is being played.
"Hahaha, hahaha."
Lu Fei watched as if he were watching a joke, the smile on his lips became more and more unrestrained, and his shoulders couldn't help but twitch.
"Mr. Lu, I never thought that Lianxiang, an empty shell like Motorola, could actually offer 3 billion yuan, and it's still a beautiful thing! Should I say that they are taking advantage of it, or that their brains have been squeezed through a crack in the door!" Sun Hongjun laughed.
The voice was full of treachery.
"They may be stupid, but they are definitely not stupid."
Lu Fei suppressed his smile, "Now Lianxiang's laptop business and PC business, whether domestic or foreign, have lost market share in the competition with Shenzhou, and are slowly shrinking. The only hope to support the stock price externally is smart phones."
Regarding mobile phones, the acquisition of Motorola is nothing more than an attempt to increase market value and take shortcuts.”
"Mr. Lu's analysis makes sense. Lianxiang just acquired Motorola and immediately contacted us, hoping to replace Motorola's membership seat in the Android Alliance. He has also been asking about the Hardcore Alliance and seems to want to join."
There was a hint of caution in Sun Hongjun's words.
"There is no airtight wall in the world. It is not surprising that news about the hard-core alliance was leaked." Lu Fei disagreed.
Sun Hongjun said: "However, Yang Yuanqing made an unreasonable request. He said that he was conveying it on behalf of Liu Chuanzhi. He hopes that we adults will have a lot of people and stop arguing with children. We will intercede with Didi so that you and the Hardcore Alliance can show your favor.
, release Didi Yima.”
"Hey, according to what he said, if I don't release Didi, wouldn't there be a large number of people? Is it just adults bullying children?"
Lu Fei teased: "I'm not very old."
"Mr. Lu, how should I reply?" Sun Hongjun asked.
"Anyway, Lianxiang has acquired Motorola. It's because of the momentum. It's definitely not possible to refuse it openly. It would seem too petty and unstructured." Lu Fei touched his chin, "If you want to replace Motorola and become a member of Android, you can! If you want to join Hardware
A nuclear alliance is also possible! But if I want to intercede for Didi, I can’t!"
He said slowly: "At least we have to wait for a while."
"Mr. Lu, what do you mean..."
Sun Hongjun was puzzled.
Lu Fei said quietly: "When Shunfeng acquires Kuaidi, completely integrates the Shanghai stock market's business, and begins to conquer the entire East China market, we are ready to support Didi. At that time, the first phase of suppressing Didi will be successfully completed."
"In terms of reasons, let's just say that joining the Android and Hardcore Alliance, the review will take some time." Sun Hongjun said with a smile, "As for lifting Didi's restraining order, you must become a member of the Hardcore Alliance to be eligible to propose it, and you have to attend a meeting.
Discuss voting.”
"that's all."
Lu Fei nodded with satisfaction, "Things like Didi are not worth the logical distraction. We have to focus on our friendly businesses like Samsung, Lianxiang, Nokia, and Apple."
Sun Hongjun couldn't agree more. Apple needs no words. It has been an old rival for many years and must be fully respected.
Nokia, which was acquired by Microsoft, will make a comeback this year and release a new mobile operating system, which is also one of its major enemies.
As for Samsung, the Galaxy series was unable to enter the U.S. market because Apple interfered and extended the import restrictions on Samsung electronic products. It had to follow logic and fight head-on in the Central and European markets.
But only Lianxiang, what grade?
Even after acquiring Motorola, it is not worthy of being a logical opponent!
"You think Lian Xiang has nothing to worry about?"
Lu Fei took a sip of tea playfully.
"Mr. Lu, 70% of Lianxiang's current mobile phone shipments are through operator channels. Once there are huge changes in sales channels, Lianxiang's mobile phone business will definitely collapse."
Sun Hongjun sounded disdainful.
"I got you."
Lu Fei revealed at one point that with the transition from 3G to 4G, the sales channels for smartphones will gradually shift from operators to the Internet.
By then, operators' channel marketing costs will also drop.
Marketing expenses mainly include sales, advertising and publicity expenses. Among them, the sales expenses spent on mobile phone terminal subsidies account for the largest proportion. Under the background that overall expenses must decrease, operators will definitely invest limited terminal subsidies into 4G mobile phones.
Companies like Lianxiang that rely on 3G will be over sooner or later.
The acquisition of Motorola hastened its death.
"Mr. Lu, when will the 4G licenses be issued? Do you have any news?" Sun Hongjun asked with a smile.
"The letter from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology is for next year."
Lu Fei frowned and said: "It seems that Logic and Shenzhou are now going to stop research and development of 3G products and projects, gradually reduce production plans, and fully transform to 4G."
"Mr. Lu, this year's iPhone 6 is a 4G mobile phone."
Sun Hongjun carefully introduced the basic parameters.
It has 1GB to 2GB of memory, 16GB, 32GB, and 64GB storage space. It is equipped with an 8-megapixel rear camera and a 1.3-megapixel front camera jointly developed with Leica. The screen is still the best AMOLED panel...
"These are just the basics, but they cannot be used as selling points. An important selling point of this year's iPhone 6 is the four defenses!"
Lu Fei stretched out four fingers and said, "On top of being waterproof, dustproof, and shockproof, we also add an anti-fall feature."
Sun Hongjun vowed that regardless of the overall design of iPhone 6, the glass panel alone uses Corning’s second and latest generation of Gorilla Glass, which is thinner, lighter and harder.
But there are also some regrets, "It's a pity, iPhone5 will definitely use this model, and it will definitely not be available for the first launch. But Mr. Lu, I can guarantee that it has four defenses, especially the resistance to falling and hanging, which is definitely far ahead of all competitors.
"
"very good."
The corner of Lu Fei's mouth raised, "Old Sun, there is one thing you should pay attention to. You should not rely too much on Kang Ning. How is Chen Hong's self-research?"
"The Xuanwu special glass project has been launched. The research and development is jointly conducted with Bourne Optics. BOE cooperates with the manufacturer and is fully responsible for the subsequent production." Sun Hongjun reported truthfully.
Lu Fei solemnly said: "Now it is waterproof, dustproof, shockproof, and dropproof. In the future, on the basis of the four protections, we will add antifreeze, anti-crushing, anti-shake, anti-this, and resistance to that. After all, mobile phones will be like the human body in the future."
They are just like organs, and people cannot live without them."
"In terms of heat resistance and anti-freeze, we are already cooperating with Huawei, and Yu Chengdong is very interested in this project."
Sun Hongjun laughed heartily.
"We really should learn from Huawei in this regard. After all, communication base stations have to work in high-temperature environments and low-temperature and extremely cold environments. Huawei must have rich technology and experience in this area."
Lu Fei narrowed his eyes.
Last year, the type-C interface and definition of fast charging were unified. This year, we will reshape the core concept of four defenses in the industry!
In the past, because of the exaggerated and false propaganda of waterproof and anti-fall in TV shopping, especially the negative impact of counterfeit phones on fake three-proof technology, the "four defenses" became notorious. Consumers are more concerned about the waterproof, anti-fall, dustproof, and shockproof of mobile phones.
Seriously distrustful.
After chatting about iPhone 6, the two of them talked about the second trial lawsuit between Samsung and Logic, until Elpida applied for bankruptcy protection from the Neon authorities. Samsung and Micron, like them, were eyeing it.
"By the way, remember to make it clear to Lian Xiang."
Lu Feidao: "You can join the Android Open Alliance, or even the Hardcore Alliance, but you must follow the rules. The payment interface must be Caifubao and Penguin Pay, and it is never allowed to support Yipay."
"What about Didi?"
"Similarly, we must support Caifubao and Penguin Pay. This is one of the conditions for lifting the Didi restriction order and cannot be negotiated!"
"Mr. Lu, these are the requirements of the hardcore alliance to lift Didi's restrictions. Liu Qing, I have studied it repeatedly with the executives..."
Cheng Wei hesitated on the phone and found it difficult to speak.
"Have you decided to surrender?"
Lu Yun's face was gloomy and he gritted his teeth.
The reason why I founded Didi, and why I introduced Liu Chuanzhi and Lianxiang to invest in Didi and Yipay, was not because I hoped that Yipay could access the taxi payment scene through Didi and the mobile terminal payment scene through Lianxiang.
However, all these plans almost went bankrupt!
Didi was supported by Lu Fei in an understatement.
"Mr. Lu, we have no choice. Now Didi is in an embarrassing situation. Not only is it being squeezed out by its peers, targeted by hard-core alliances, and severely investigated by relevant departments, but more importantly, Shunfeng actually persuaded Kuaidi to agree to the acquisition, and has already taken the lead.
If we conquer the Shanghai market in one step, if we continue to consume it, East China will not be protected!"
Cheng Wei said anxiously: "If Yanjing is lost, Pengcheng is lost, and Shanghai East China is lost, capital will give up investing in Didi."
"So, you surrendered?"
Lu Yun was so angry that his whole body was shaking, and his eyes almost burst.
"Mr. Lu, we don't call this surrender, we call this strategic tolerance. We endured the calm for a while before Didi started. Although you and Mr. Liu are escorting us, we are obviously weak compared to the tailwind. We need time.
To develop, we need to accumulate the power of the market and capital. When we grow stronger, we can wipe away our shame and fight with Shunfeng with real swords and guns!"
What Cheng Wei said was high-sounding and without any shame.
"you!"
"Oh, I understand what you said, that's all."
Lu Yun was angry at first, but after thinking about it, a helpless feeling of powerlessness came to his heart, and he slumped on the chair.
A beeping busy tone came from the phone receiver.
The online ride-hailing market is foreseeable, but with hundreds of millions of potential users and tens of millions of daily active users, it can create a billion-level daily average GMV, and Yipay can make a living even if it gets a piece of the pie.
However, with Caifubao and Penguin Pay stepping in, Yipay will slowly be marginalized or even abandoned by Didi.
As for the Hardcore Alliance, all mobile phone access channels across the country are bound to Caifubao and Penguin Pay, and even all Android smartphones around the world are not separated.
What about Easy Pay?
As long as the goddamn Lu Fei plays dirty tricks and uses his fingers to control the hard-core alliance like he did with Didi, he can silently block the downloads and traffic of Yipay on mobile channels.
Coupled with the Internet, it is comparable to sophons locking down human technology!
Why?
Why it came out like this!
Lu Yun couldn't figure it out. There were more and more cigarettes in the ashtray, and more and more wine bottles on the table and chairs. One day, two days...
For a week, I rarely went to the company, rarely answered the phone, and even stopped going to work. My whole body was depressed, and I stayed in the study, becoming more and more strange.
Known for his eloquence, he gradually began to stop talking, going out, eating, seeing other people, and even sleeping. Lying in bed, he always felt less and less sleepy.
At first I could stay up late into the night and squint for three or four hours.
Later it was shortened to one or two hours.
Even sometimes, he simply opened his eyes and watched the sun rise. He actually didn't think about anything, but there was a heavy feeling of powerlessness pressing on his chest, making him breathless. His eyes lost their color and were full of despair.
Gray, life is worthless.
Fortunately, there is also Zhang Ying.
After all, he is a thoughtful wife who discovered something was wrong early on. Combined with his behavior and repeated inquiries, she actually came to a very scary conclusion.
Husband may get depression!
Zhang Ying was so frightened that she panicked. News about the suicides of depressed patients flooded her mind. She hurriedly pulled Lu Yun and forcefully took him to see a doctor.
"Depression? Are you kidding me?"
Lu Yun, whose face was covered with stubble, was lying on the sofa, as stiff as a zombie, with dark circles under his eyes, but he was not sleepy. He had just eaten, but he felt that he could not exert any strength.
"No need to discuss, change clothes quickly!"
Zhang Ying pulled him up and said, "Before you go to the hospital, shave your beard clean. It's not ugly because it's not a beard."
"No, I told you I don't have any inhibitions..."
Lu Yun retorted angrily.
"Do not talk nonsense!"
Zhang Yingsheng forced him to take him to a private clinic that was authoritative, reliable and extremely private in the field of psychotherapy.
After all, with Lu Yun's current wealth and status, once any illness is exposed, it will affect Yipay and Didi.
Lu Yun was inside the house, and she was outside. At first, she could sit still, but as time went by, she began to pace nervously in the corridor.
After a while, the door opened and Lu Yun walked out slowly.
"How about it?"
"Well, the doctor didn't say anything, just ask the family members to come in."
"Um?"
Zhang Ying's heart skipped a beat and she hurriedly entered the house.
The doctor also looked very worried. After she sat down, he said: "He is very resistant to treatment now, and he thinks he is fine from the bottom of his heart. When I ask him questions, he either responds perfunctorily or keeps silent, so I don't
Detailed diagnosis cannot be made."
"Then what do I need to do?" Zhang Ying asked.
"Do you know what he was doing some time ago? Or do you know what his heart disease is?"
Heart disease?
Isn’t it Lu Fei who is suffering from heart disease?
Zhang Ying sighed and could only choose what she could say.
After hearing this, the doctor's brows gradually relaxed, and he seemed to have some clues, and said: "This is a typical case of depression."
"Fortunately, it was discovered early. This is considered mild depression, but the symptoms are very obvious and there is a tendency to develop into moderate depression."
"Then how to treat it? Take medicine?"
"Taking medicine is just for relief. As the saying goes, you need to tie the bell to untie it, and heart disease needs heart medicine to cure it. The key is to get rid of the root cause of depression, and then the disease can be cured."
"dig up the roots!?"
Zhang Ying smiled bitterly, get rid of Lu Fei?
If Lu Fei didn't kill them all, it would be a mercy to get rid of them.
God, is there really no cure for Lu Yun’s depression?
For a moment, I shed tears of despair and despair.
