Chapter 218 Mama

(With full sincerity, I present this 5,000-word chapter. I am begging for monthly tickets and collections. Great job, friends!)

Have a good night's sleep.

"The sun is shining on your buttocks, so the lazy guy needs to get up soon."

"Mom, what time is it?"

"What time is it? Your aunt and I went shopping for groceries and we're back. It's almost nine o'clock and you still don't get up. Watch out for your mother to take off your quilt."

Wang Yaocheng enjoyed the comfortable bed at home very much. The corners of the quilt revealed the fragrant smell of mites roasted in the sun. When he returned home, he seemed to be a child again; "Oh, I didn't want to lie down for a while."

Her mother, Chen Xiulian, slapped her hard twice across the bed. When she saw Wang Yaocheng grunting and looking like he had grown up, she couldn't help laughing, "Okay, I'll give you half an hour. I'll go to the bank on the street to withdraw some money.

If you are still lying in bed when you come back, mom will tell you why the flowers are so red today."

"I know, because they are all flowers of the motherland."

"Okay, just stay poor here for me." Chen Xiulian held back her laughter and walked out, calling her uncle by the way; "Xiu Tong, go with the eldest sister to pick up some money. Just take a look around to see if there are any suitable houses."

When I came back, I told my sister that we don’t need to save money for him in this small city. Look at the cars parked at the door. Each of them is worth dozens of houses. I finally understand that this little monkey can’t help him if he doesn’t spend some money.

What a waste."

"Hey, that's good." Chen Xiutong happily jumped three feet high and followed him with a bump in his stomach.

Wang Yaocheng sat up from the bed and thought about it for a moment. "Rebecca, are you there?"

"You called me."

Rebecca opened the door and walked in. She saw Wang Yaocheng lying lazily on the bed. She couldn't help but lick her mouth. It looked white, tender and delicious.

Wow! What do you mean?

Wang Yaocheng rolled his eyes; "My mother and uncle went to the bank. I'm a little worried. You should follow behind to prevent any accidents."

"Is there any reward?"

"Yes, come back and help me get dressed."

"whispering sound!"

Rebecca shook her head proudly and left. The lynx came over quietly and closed the door again.

room

Wang Yaocheng placed two pillows on his back, placed his hands behind his head and lay comfortably on them, thinking about the further development plan of his business empire.

From the current point of view, the layout of the United States, Hong Kong and mainland China has been completed. Apart from Wangan Computer, there are no other targets that need to be focused on mergers and acquisitions.

Wangan Computer, which is in the bankruptcy protection stage, and President Huo Jiaguang have been following up on the negotiations. The two parties have maintained secret contact. Now is not the best time for open negotiations.

Wang An Computer was founded in 1951 by Chinese entrepreneur Wang An. In the 1980s, it became the world's largest word processor manufacturer. At its peak, Wang An's company employed 31,500 people. At his peak, Wang An was worth US$2 billion. He was

Known as the most successful Chinese.

It is a pity that such a huge company involved in the production of personal computers collapsed in just five years. The company's stock price plummeted from US$43 to US$0.75, with a market value of less than US$200 million and an annual loss of more than US$400 million.

This competitor that once made the giant blue giant IBM tremble, Thomas Watson Jr., the head of IBM, once told his subordinates to always pay attention to any disturbance in Wang An Computer.

At the peak of his career, Wang An was obsessed with his personal grudge against the blue giant IBM, or his obsession with defeating IBM. He insisted not to associate with the other party, and his computer products were not compatible with IBM.

But IBM is no longer the IBM of the past. Its desktop computers use the world-popular Microsoft operating system, and its microprocessors use the Intel 8086 chip. IBM has formed a firm alliance with Microsoft and Intel, and has achieved great success in the market.

Wang An Computer single-handedly fought against the entire market trend, just like Don Quixote rushing towards the windmill, and the end was obvious.

In just a few years, the company quickly collapsed despite its prosperity. It filed for bankruptcy protection at the end of 1992 and now has less than 7,000 employees.

The many original patents owned by Wang An Computer Company are simply a treasure. Its high-end scientific research and sales talents are the envy of IBM. Later, he joined Cisco and brought Cisco from a market value of 600 million to John Chambers, with a market value of 444 billion.

In Wangan Computer, you can only be a regional sales manager, which shows that there are a lot of talents.

What's more, Wangan Computer has complete personal computer production facilities, large-scale production plants and mature sales channels, and almost has all the complete industrial chains needed for personal desktop computer production.

Such an enterprise may be seen as shabby in the eyes of others, but in Wang Yaocheng's eyes, it is simply more valuable than gold.

If all production lines can be moved to China, the competitiveness of this company will be unparalleled, and it will certainly cut a rich piece of cake in today's rapidly developing world desktop computer market.

The only thing that hinders the merger and acquisition is Wang An Computer's current 7,000 employees. Wang Yaocheng only wants high-end scientific researchers and mature sales channels. He doesn't want any workers in the production factory.

When it comes to American companies, labor unions are an unavoidable topic.

Wangan Computer's rapid decline, and the labor union was also a very important factor. During the period when the company was booming, Wangan Computer's powerful labor union often went on strike, demanding improvements in employee benefits and salaries, which in disguise increased the company's costs.

At its peak, there were as many as 31,500 employees, with annual labor costs exceeding US$1.4 billion. Under such circumstances, the union was still dissatisfied and held strikes of varying sizes every year, finally bringing down the entire enterprise.

Just imagine, who dares to hire such an employee?

With the help of corporate bankruptcy protection, the famous American business expert Edward Miller wielded the big stick of layoffs, laying off more than 20,000 people in just over a year. This not only stopped the bleeding of the company in time, but also caused Wang An Computer's business to shrink extremely, and was in a precarious situation.

middle.

According to the intention conveyed through secret channels, Edward Miller needs to continue to lay off 5,500 employees throughout the company, retaining only the high-end research department and corporate sales channels, and maintaining a small number of remaining personnel in the factory warehouse.

This work is expected to be completed in June 1994, at which time formal acquisition negotiations can be initiated to capture this key piece of the business empire puzzle.

The whole of 1994 should be a year of steady development. We should practice our internal skills well and welcome the next round of explosive growth.

in Hong Kong

In order to boost the stock price, Mr. Yu Chengde, the "supreme god of decline", accidentally fell down after a drinking party and sought medical treatment overnight, attracting the attention of Hong Kong media.

the next morning

After the Hong Kong Stock Exchange opened, the stocks of three listed companies, Cathay Pacific Airways, Swire Pacific and HAECO, all skyrocketed. This shows how fearful market investors are of Mr. Yu Chengde, the "supreme god of decline".

Two days later, due to serious injuries, Mr. Yu Chengde returned to the mainland for medical treatment.

The Hong Kong Stock Exchange unexpectedly ushered in a bullish market that had not been seen for a long time. Among them, the stocks of three listed companies, Cathay Pacific Airways, Swire Pacific and HAECO, rose the most.

In just two weeks, the stock price has basically recovered to the level before the merger. This is a return of value, and there is no lack of promotion by secret hands.

After all, most of the shares are locked up, and the remaining market values ​​can be speculated up with little capital, and they have also been enthusiastically welcomed by Hong Kong stock speculators.

According to the work plan, after the Spring Festival on February 10, senior executives from SoftBank, Nokia and CITIC will visit one after another to discuss corporate strategic cooperation issues.

During this period, Wangqi Fund once again increased its holdings of Nokia shares, investing an additional US$450 million. The shareholding ratio has now reached 5.12%, making it the fourth largest shareholder of Nokia, with shares worth up to US$1.26 billion.

As Nokia's performance became more and more outstanding, it also rose in the capital market. The 1993 annual report showed that Nokia's market share in the personal mobile communication equipment market jumped to 5.6%, almost double that of 1992.

The American company Motorola is still the dominant company, accounting for 73% of the world's mobile communications equipment market. It seems to be an insurmountable and daunting mountain.

In the second echelon, Nokia's rapid development has allowed it to stand out and become the leader in the second camp of personal mobile devices.

The market has expanded, profitability has increased rapidly, and the stock price has naturally risen to a normal level, quadrupling compared to the beginning of the year.

Wangqi Fund will continue to increase its holdings of Nokia shares, and the final US$450 million is expected to be fully invested in the near future. The continued increase in shares will reach a level of more than 7%, making it the third largest shareholder.

Nokia has deep doubts about this, and this visit by Chinese people after the Lunar New Year is a concrete manifestation of this doubt.

If Wangqi Fund shows strong acquisition intention, Nokia shares may launch an anti-takeover plan, including the introduction of strategic investors, white horse knights and other tit-for-tat measures.

From Wang Yaocheng’s personal perspective, holding Nokia shares has two major benefits;

First, as Nokia's market share gradually expands and it earns huge profits, you can imagine what will happen to its corporate value as its market share jumps from 5.6% to more than 70% in the global mobile phone market.

changes today.

Secondly, by joining the board of directors of Nokia, you can maintain a friendly strategic cooperative relationship between the two companies, which has many benefits.

In the production planning of Atlantic Company, the Pearl eight-inch wafer production base is under construction. After it is put into production, it will enter the fields of personal computer CPU, communication equipment chips and other fields, and quickly seize the market high ground.

Today, Motorola's mobile phone chips will definitely use products from Intel, and Nokia will be an important user of Atlantic.

The second phase of the Huaizhou eight-inch wafer fab will further expand its applications and extend to more application chip fields such as automobiles, home appliances, magnetic card ICs, etc. The future market prospects are broad.

Maintaining a good relationship with Nokia will help products enter Nokia's supply chain. Nokia has some involvement in these production areas, which can further expand the company's competitiveness.

Why not kill two birds with one stone?

It is expected that all the production facilities of the American Wangan Computer Company will be moved to Huaizhou City in China to build a super-large personal computer production base, giving a pair of wings to the hometown economy.

After the implementation of this heavy-asset project, it will be divided into 123 phases of construction, which will eventually solve the work problem of more than 100,000 people, which shows its huge scale.

For his father Wang Guodong, who is in charge of the economic construction of the development zone, he almost wakes up laughing.

Later, the famous OEM company Foxconn established an industrial park in Huaizhou City and recruited more than 200,000 employees for production, becoming Foxconn's most important production base in East China.

Huaizhou City, located in the thoroughfare of seven provinces, has a superior geographical location and a high level of culture and education, which is enough to support such a high-tech production enterprise.

A few days ago, when meeting with the leaders of Mingzhu City, they hoped that the Wang Consortium could invest in the construction of a high-level foreign-related hotel, and Wang Yaocheng happily agreed.

There are not many opportunities to enclose land in Huangpu District. The local leaders take the initiative to offer it to them, and there is no reason to turn it away.

As for foreign-related hotel brands, Wang Yaocheng has already considered using Peninsula Hotel. The name is Peninsula Hotel in Pearl City. Peninsula Hotel’s management level is high enough, its top international brand is loud enough, and its reputation for excellence is enough to make it a celebrity in Pearl City.

As for whether Michael Kadoorie agrees?

This is not within the scope of Wang Yaocheng's consideration. After the Spring Festival, the acquisition battle for the Hong Kong and Shanghai Hotels Co., Ltd. will be launched. For such a small kiss, Wang Yaocheng does not need to be personally in charge. It is enough for President Mo Yuxuan to preside over the acquisition.

Regardless of the fact that all the liquidity of Wangqi Fund will be exhausted, it is more than enough to mortgage the Nokia shares to the bank and lend out a billion US dollars in minutes to kill Michael.

Such is the power of tyranny. The Hong Kong and Shanghai Hotels Co., Ltd. is like a ripe fruit on a tree branch, which can fall off with just a touch. As for the small and medium-sized shareholders who are stragglers?

hehe!

It's not enough to watch at all.

If small and medium-sized shareholders go against the big bankers composed of professional traders, they can only end up with an ugly death. They will lose money and be eliminated in the violent shocks one after another. Don't ask for the reason. This is the end of the stragglers.

In the Stock Exchange market, rumors about the Hong Kong and Shanghai Hotel and China Electric Power were flying all over the sky, and the stock prices fluctuated like monkeys in the sky, even attracting the participation of the securities company under the command of the famous stock market sniper Liu Luanxiong.

It seems that despite the failed attack on the Hong Kong and Shanghai Hotel, Liu Luanxiong still has an obsession in his heart and wants to take the opportunity to cause trouble this time.

Fortunately, Liu Luanxiong only wanted money, and he was also very shrewd. He took the initiative to contact President Du Bo to advance and retreat together. In the end, he would hand over all the chips in his hand, and he was considered to be standing in the same trench.

now

Michael Kadoorie may be struggling to deal with what may be the biggest crisis in the family's history. If he were to stand in front of Wang Yaocheng, I wonder if Michael would still be as greedy as before.

Wang Yaocheng no longer cares about these little things.

"Small town..."

Her mother, Chen Xiulian, rushed in with a look of panic and closed the door. Wang Yaocheng was so frightened that he sat up in excitement, "Mom, please tell me slowly."

"You... how much money did you put in your bank card... in your bank card?" Her mother, Chen Xiulian, was running out of breath and couldn't speak coherently. She lowered her voice and asked mysteriously.

Ahem...it scared me.

Wang Yaocheng lay back again; "I put 30 million yuan, but you can't use the U.S. dollars."

"If you're going to die, why would you put so much money away? Mom doesn't need this card, so you can take it back to develop your career."

Wang Yaocheng said, dumbfounded, "Mom, I invest tens of billions of dollars outside now. This is not much, but not much. You can spend whatever you want with it? Do you know how much my private jet costs?"

Converting it to RMB is more than 300 million. Now you know how rich your son is, right?"

Well……

It seems quite reasonable. My mother, Chen Xiulian, sat thoughtfully on the edge of the bed, looking at Wang Yaocheng with fixed eyes. I wonder what thoughts are running in her heart?

Wang Yaocheng felt uncomfortable when his mother saw him, so he smiled dryly and sat up again.

"What's wrong, Mom?"

"Mom knows that our little town is very smart, and all the children can't compare to it, but I don't know that your child is beyond my expectations. Hey! It's really a blessing that the Wang family has cultivated in eight lifetimes. As a mother,

It’s considered a great achievement!”

"That's necessary." Wang Yaocheng sang with a serious face; "The military medal contains half of me and half of my mother, ah... ah ah ah..."

"Okay, goodbye. The most regrettable thing is that your singing has not conveyed your mother's excellent genes. What are you singing? The barren accent is so off-key." Her mother, Chen Xiulian, waved her hand and began to think of how to use this song.

A huge sum of money;

"Xiaocheng, you said that my mother used the money to invest in some businesses so that your uncles would have something to do so that our family's money would not go to waste. They themselves are embarrassed, and my mother also feels awkward. What do you think?"

"Okay, but you can keep the money, I will help you with the matter!" Wang Yaocheng was not bragging, he rolled his eyes and came up with an idea; "In this way, after the Spring Festival, we will discuss investment projects with Huaizhou City

, this can be considered a project.

The company will communicate with the city leaders and acquire hundreds of acres of land next to the bus station to develop a small commodity market. When the construction is completed and the recruitment of merchants is completed, you can just accept what is ready.

When the time comes, take out your ID card and give it to my secretary Zhao Feng, and let him go through a set of industrial and commercial registration procedures. Just think of a company name. After accepting it, you and a few uncles will take care of rent collection every month and maintain market order.

Already."

My mother, Chen Xiulian, thought for a moment about such a big matter. She felt confused and had no clue, and she didn’t know what to name the company. “It’s called Xingwang Company. It’s a bit unsophisticated, so it’s better to call it Endeavor Company.”

Tsk tsk tsk, something is wrong, what should I call it?"

Wang Yaocheng smiled casually, "You can discuss it with a few uncles, just to increase their sense of participation. In the end, you can just make the decision. You can call it whatever you want, and you will be happy!"

"Okay, let's do it."

"Leave the operation of the small commodity market to a few uncles. You don't have to worry about anything. You should eat and play. Don't they know how to collect rent?" Wang Yaocheng warned again.

"Well, I think it means that this will not delay my little sisters and me from playing in the group art hall, and your uncles will also have a stable income, including your second uncle, so everything has been arranged."

My mother, Chen Xiulian, thought about it for a while and felt that this plan was really good. She pinched Wang Yaocheng's face with joy and said, "Your child has no other merits. I don't know how this little head was born. He is just very smart."

"Only Mom knows that."

"Ouch, if I can't stand this disgusting feeling, why should I call you daddy?"

"Daddy..."

Wang Yaocheng deliberately prolonged his tone, and his mother, Chen Xiulian, pretended to tremble in fear; "Call this to your dad later during dinner, and I'll make sure he spits out every mouthful of rice and returns the cake... Oops, it's so gross, I can't stand it anymore."

.”

"Mom..."

"Oh, okay, I can't stand you anymore. I'm going out to cook. Please get up quickly."

"Oh, Mommy...my shoes..."

My mother, Chen Xiulian, slammed the door and ran away.

Wang Yaocheng enjoyed the warm feeling of family very much. He enjoyed his mother's laughter and scolding, even if he was hit with a broom stick, it was an unforgettable childhood memory. It's good to look back on it.

Only with his mother, he is no longer a leading figure in the high-tech industry who is taking the world by storm, and the focus of financial news tracking, but a big boy who is not itchy for three days and can act coquettishly and cutely.

In the eyes of his mother, Wang Yaocheng will always be a child.
