The second thing is that Shi Zhijian is planning to use the two billion to invest in Intel Corporation of the United States.
Intel was founded in Silicon Valley in the United States in 1968 by Robert Noyce, Gordon Moore and Andy Grove. After nearly 50 years of development, Intel has laid a solid foundation in the fields of chip innovation, technology development, products and platforms.
It has achieved a leading position in the world and has always led the technological product innovation and industry and market development in related industries.
In the previous generation, in 1999, Intel's market capitalization reached a peak of US$500 billion, with a peak of US$509 billion.
For this giant that will be worth 500 billion U.S. dollars in the future, Shi Zhijian will take down this company no matter what. What he has to do now is to use 2 billion to quietly absorb Intel's shares in the U.S. market, and even
To acquire shares from other shareholders at a high price, you must obtain at least 30% of Intel's equity!
Why did Shi Zhijian do this?
To be precise, it was forced by American semiconductor companies.
The last time the US ambassador to Thailand met with Shi Zhijian, his words were full of sharp threats.
Shi Zhijian's semiconductor business in Japan has gradually taken off, which has touched the Yankees' cheese. According to the rules of the previous generation, the Yankees would start to attack Japan's semiconductor market in 1985 at the latest.
The emergence of Shi Zhijian in this generation prompted the Americans to take action in advance to sanction Japan Semiconductor, thus breaking the backbone of Asian semiconductors.
What Shi Zhijian has to do is to outflank the Yankee Semiconductors when they are preparing to sharpen their knives to slaughter their own companies, first taking down Intel, then Apple, and the giant among the Big Macs, Fairchild Semiconductor.
company!
Compared with when Shi Zhijian asked Shen Bi to find Jobs and invest in Apple, this time Shi Zhijian asked him to invest in Intel, which Shen Bi found quite reliable.
After all, Intel's current performance report is very good. Not only Shi Zhijian is targeting it, but many large international investment companies are also targeting it. The question is, will Intel accept funds from Shinhwa Investment Company? After all, those Americans are doing a lot in semiconductor protection.
Very precise.
In this regard, Shi Zhijian’s suggestion is to use a shell to lay eggs! First find an American investment company in the United States, and then inject Shinhwa Capital into it, so that you can have the prerequisites to invest in American semiconductors.
Shen Bi listened to these suggestions from Shi Zhijian, but before hanging up the phone, Shen Bi still asked her doubts: Why is Shi Zhijian so concerned about American semiconductor companies?
Of course Shi Zhijian would not tell him the real answer, telling him that the semiconductor industry controlled by Shinhwa would start a technology war with American semiconductors to dominate the world in the future!
Shi Zhijian did this to prepare for a rainy day.
The reason Shi Zhijian told Shen Bi was that those companies were very profitable.
This answer is in line with Shi Zhijian's principle of putting interests first, and Shen Bi fully accepts it.
…
After hanging up the phone, Shi Zhijian rubbed his temples. During this time, he had been working at a newly opened health care product factory in Bangkok.
As a newly married groom, he is considered a workaholic. Instead of spending time with his two lovely wives at home, he suffers in this factory.
Shi Zhijian leaned on the chair and closed his eyes, falling asleep, but his mind was spinning rapidly.
In his opinion, the two tasks he assigned to Shen Bi sounded easy, but in fact they were very difficult to accomplish.
First of all, whether Steve Jobs can be found is one thing; secondly, whether Steve Jobs will accept financial assistance from Shinhwa is another matter.
You must know that geniuses all have quirks. This Steve Jobs was also a very autocratic person. In his previous life, it was his autocratic power that helped turn Apple from a small company into a world-class enterprise.
In addition, Shi Zhijian asked Shen Bi to acquire Intel, which was an impossible task. Not to mention that the American semiconductor people have a strong sense of self-protection, but the US policy does not allow foreign funds to control their semiconductor lifeline.
Therefore, Shi Zhijian's requirements are not high. As long as he can get some equity from the other party and have a say, that's fine.
For this reason, Shi Zhijian believes that this sneaky acquisition process will last three to five years, or even longer.
Two billion US dollars seems like a lot. If you calculate it carefully, it is still not enough to control a world-class semiconductor company with this amount of money. To be precise, it is not enough! That's why Shi Zhijian is so diligent and doesn't even go to the wedding and honeymoon. Du, come here and suffer.
Just like Shi Zhijian said to Lai Hao, "Health products are really profitable!"
Thinking of Lai Hao, Shi Zhijian suddenly remembered that this guy came to the factory with him today, euphemistically saying that he, the second boss, came to the factory to inspect the work. Where has he gone now?
Soon Shi Zhijian knew the answer.
At the entrance of the factory, Lame Hao was sitting on a horse with one leg horizontally, a cane on his back, and was playing chess with Xu Shubiao.
Xu Shubiao is a well-known chess player, and he especially likes to play chess. In his spare time from work, he likes to set up a stall in front of the factory and compete with some of the factory's masters.
And in order to show off his expert demeanor, Xu Shubiao also promised those opponents that if anyone beats him, he will treat him to dinner, at least for a week!
There must be a brave man under the heavy reward!
So many people like to play chess with him.
Unfortunately, Xu Shubiao's chess skills were not very good, and many of his opponents surrendered within a few games.
It was the same today. It was rare that the factory was not busy at noon, so Xu Shubiao laid out his own strategy, hoping to be defeated!
The previous masters had fallen behind one after another and did not dare to accept the move easily again. It happened that Lame Hao saw this scene, and Lame Hao actually sat down and started playing a game with Xu Shubiao.
Then, Xu Shubiao’s hard days came!
It’s not that Lai Hao is a chess god or sage with superb chess skills. On the contrary, Lai Hao’s chess skills are terrible!
If you don't take two steps, you will die. The problem is that the lame man has a unique trick, which is "regret move"!
"No, no! I made the wrong move, please try again!"
"Hey, it's only three things! I regret one more move!"
"To be honest, I rubbed my eyes just now and couldn't see clearly!"
In short, no matter how the lame hero makes a mistake, he has every reason to regret it!
Xu Shubiao was almost furious!
But he knew that the lame man opposite him was not easy to mess with. He used to be a gangster, and that lame leg was proof of that!
What's more, Xu Shubiao also heard that Laihao had a bad temper, was prone to anger, and would kill people with a knife at every turn!
Based on the above factors, Xu Shubiao was ready to give up the fight, but Lame Hao was addicted to playing at this time, and refused to let Xu Shubiao leave, let alone stay. As soon as Xu Shubiao moved his butt, Lame Hao immediately stared at him: "Why, you want to leave. ?”
Ever since, under the murderous look of Lai Hao, Xu Shubiao had to hold his butt steady and continue to "fight fiercely" with Lai Hao on the chessboard.
What is it like to play chess with a person who is a bad chess player? If there really is a hell in the world, Xu Shubiao is willing to call it hell.
So when Shi Zhijian came to the gate, what he saw was a lame man sitting on a small pony with a golden sword, holding a chess piece in his hand and placing it around, looking very impressive.
Xu Shubiao's face was heavy, as if he were mourning his heir.
Just then, the factory lunch bell rang.
The workers started to get excited. Xu Shubiao took the opportunity to stand up and said: "At noon, we need to eat!"
Lai Hao had just placed the chess pieces when he heard: "Eating? We haven't finished playing yet!"
Xu Shubiao: "Today is the Dragon Boat Festival. We have rice dumplings for lunch, and I also have to speak to the employees to cheer them up! The work is heavy, and as for this game of chess... let's leave it another day!"
"Dragon Boat Festival?" Shi Zhijian was stunned for a moment. Now he was busy with work, working day and night. He didn't expect that the Dragon Boat Festival would come so soon.
Although most of the employees employed by this factory are local Thais, there are also many Chinese among them.
Chinese people attach great importance to traditional festivals, such as the Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival. They are all very important festivals. Especially on the Dragon Boat Festival, dragon boat racing and rice dumplings are eaten.
At this time, the female workers in the workshop who had stopped working and came out to eat, all greeted the young boss expectantly when they passed by Shi Zhijian.
When Lai Hao saw it, he said: "Sit down and continue playing chess with me. Let A Jian do the mental work like encouragement and encouragement - he is the big boss, so he should contribute! Besides, you didn't watch.
Seeing those female workers ogling him one by one, I guess if he takes the stage to speak on your behalf, those female workers will definitely be so angry that their stomachs may bulge..."
At this time, Master Ma came out with a large pot of rice dumplings. The rice dumplings were tied with ropes of different colors. The red rope meant that the rice dumplings were meat, such as bacon rice dumplings, big meat rice dumplings, etc. The green rope meant that the rice dumplings were vegetarian or mixed with other ingredients.
There are bean paste, five-spice flower kernels, and tangerine peel, etc.
Those rice dumplings are bulging one by one, and even if they are wrapped in leaves, you can still smell the sweet fragrance, which whets your appetite.
In addition, because today is the Dragon Boat Festival, in addition to the extra rice dumplings, the employees’ working meals also include three meals and one soup.
Seeing this, Xu Shubiao said to Lai Hao again: "By the way, I remembered that I still want to distribute rice dumplings! I really can't play chess with you. Let's fight another day!"
This time, before Laihao could say anything, Xu Shubiao had already gotten up from the maza and fled, running to Master Ma: "Master Ma, let me help you make rice dumplings!"
Master Ma saw that it was Xu Shubiao, director of the factory, and said hurriedly: "I can't help it, I can just do this little thing!"
"There is nothing that can't be done -" Xu Shubiao looked very enthusiastic and whispered: "Help!"
Only then did Master Ma understand. He looked at Lai Hao with a blank stare and whispered, "Is his chess skills really that bad?"
"It sucks!" Xu Shubiao wanted to cry when he thought of the battle just now.
At this time, Shi Zhijian also came over to help distribute rice dumplings, and the two of them shut up.
The lame man over there was still self-righteously "seeking defeat alone" and said: "Who in the world can still fight with me? Even masters like Brother Biao were scared by me and ran away -" After speaking, he looked towards
Those who were watching were all afraid of being spotted by him and ran away!
Lame Hao sighed again: "One look can make them piss themselves off - I'm so powerful!"
The lame man feels good about himself and thinks that his chess skills are superb and that he is an unparalleled master. However, he does not know that his chess skills are so bad that he can drive people away!
"Forget it! I'd better make rice dumplings with A Jian and the others. After all, I'm also the second boss here!" Lame Hao sighed, then stood up on crutches, carried his lame leg to Shi Zhijian's side, and helped the employees.
Make rice dumplings.
After the on-site workers lined up to receive the rice dumplings, Master Ma, who could barely straighten up and take a breath after his busy work, looked at Shi Zhijian and asked with a smile: "Mr. Shi, today is the Dragon Boat Festival, do you want to go home for dinner? Axiang is sure
I’ve made a lot of delicious food waiting for you!”
Shi Zhijian shook his head and said: "There are still things to do here, please call her back for me and tell her that she doesn't have to wait for me!"
"Okay!" Master Ma sighed inwardly, thinking that my dear granddaughter, I can only help you so far. Although the saying "catch a man's stomach, you can catch a man's heart" is very true, the problem is that he
I rarely go home to eat, but you still have to catch something!
"By the way, A Jian, since today is the Dragon Boat Festival, do these workers have a holiday?" Lai Hao asked nonchalantly while helping to distribute rice dumplings. "I think back when I was a leader of Yiqun in Hong Kong,
Every Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival, I give the boys around me a day off! The same goes for other clubs, everyone stops killing people for one day!"
Lai Hao's voice was loud, and some female workers deliberately slowed down, as if waiting to hear what Shi Zhijian said.
Shi Zhijian glanced at Lai Hao, then asked Xu Shubiao with a smile: "Although I am the big boss here, you are the manager here. Tell me, do these employees want to take a vacation, or do they not want to take a vacation?"
"All the Chinese here want to take a holiday. After all, this is a traditional Chinese festival, but the local Thais are not willing to take it! If you work less, you will make less money. Besides, Mr. Shi, you are so kind and not only take care of food and housing.
, and provide them with benefits during the holidays, at least every household will not be short of rice and noodles!" Xu Shubiao replied.
Shi Zhijian smiled: "In that case, let's separate! Those who want to take a vacation can apply, and those who don't want to take a vacation can continue to work. The dinner will be better and the salary will be doubled!"
"Wow, if you mess with me like this, no one will want to take a vacation!" Xu Shubiao said with a smile.
Lame Hao also said: "Ajian, you are indeed my brother. You are 70% as good as me in spending money like water!"
Master Ma said: "Of course everyone will be happy if we can get double the salary!"
In fact, the reason why Shi Zhijian did this was because he did not want the workers to take a holiday.
Nowadays, the health care product market has opened up, but the output cannot keep up with the market demand. Even if the factory is running at full capacity, it cannot produce as much melatonin, three-strain oral liquid, etc.
Selling these products can make a lot of money, especially during the holidays, sales are even hotter.
Shi Zhijian wished that these workers were working like crazy without eating or sleeping, so how could he be willing to give them a holiday?
Of course, as a "young capitalist" who grew up under the red flag, Shi Zhijian also understands the principle of "more work, more reward", so he is never stingy in salary payment and welfare rewards, even one or two times that of many companies!
On the surface, these workers were "squeezed" by Shi Zhijian, but they were all willing to be "squeezed"! And they were "squeezed" "shuangwaiwai"!
