Chapter 143

"I agree to cooperate. I think your first commanding point is the chip?" Li Zekai asked again.

The reason for his guess is very simple. Xiangjiang has no high technology that can be called the commanding height. It can do everything else here. The only possible target of Xiaoshan is taijidian across the Strait.

"That's right. The first step in our cooperation is to acquire TSMC."

Xiao Shan talked about the plan negotiated with Gerald, and then said:

"What we need to do is to set up a company in your name, bypass the regulations of Taidao and complete the acquisition. Then I will take a stake in your company, obtain the controlling right, take control of taijidian and control the first commanding height. Then we will use the means of financing acquisition and holding to control the global commanding height, and finally give birth to the whole semiconductor industry chain on the road, and then we will have monopoly profits."

Li Ze opened his eyes and raised a question: "it's easy to acquire, but we still have obstacles after we took over?"

Xiaoshan smiled: "this needs my influence. I bet the people of Taidao support me."

He said it with great confidence.

Li Zekai suddenly understood Xiao Shan's dependence.

The most terrible thing about Xiaoshan is his influence!

Money is not terrible. The Li family is much richer than Xiaoshan. After all, Xiaoshan's rise time is too short. Although he will surpass the Li family in the future, he can't do it now.

But in terms of influence on the people, the Li family is far inferior to Xiaoshan.

Even now, no entrepreneur in the world has such a huge influence as Xiaoshan.

No one can study and imitate every idea, every model and even every sentence as a textbook, and benefit greatly from it.

This is a superstar entrepreneur.

"OK!" Li Zekai finally dispelled his doubts and said excitedly, "I have invested 4.9 billion US dollars. Can you buy it?"

He didn't have $4.9 billion, but his father didn't want to split his industry, so he gave the inheritance right to his eldest son. At the same time, in order to compensate his second son, he promised to support him to enter the science and technology industry, with an amount of $5 billion.

Li Zekai himself would not dare to invest $5 billion, but he has confidence in Xiaoshan. He is a man who specializes in creating miracles.

Xiao Shan smiled: "no problem. The acquisition of TSMC was successful. I invested $5.1 billion in your company and obtained 51% of the controlling stake."

So far, a semiconductor holding giant with an investment of 10 billion US dollars was born.

……

The Dean held his glasses, looked at Gong Hao and frowned slightly:

"Take over Gerrard's equity? Isn't Philips so far? Is there any conspiracy about it?"

Gong Hao's eyes narrowed slightly and said, "no matter what plot there is, we have to take it. We must take over the equity of taijidian, otherwise Taidao's lifeblood will be controlled by the road funds."

After a pause, he added: "if it is Li Zekai, it will not be controlled. The status of the Li family still has the right to speak. I'm afraid Xiao Shan will join hands with Li Zekai, then we will be completely passive."

He can be an industrial fund manager. There is no doubt that he is a man of insight.

"Xiao Shan is still in Yanjing now. How can he join hands with Li Zekai? Besides, Gerrard has never left Taidao. I think it's not so complicated." the Dean objected to taking over.

"Even if the present is not so complicated, what about the future?" Gong Hao reminded.

"But if we take over, we still have financial constraints. The key is to intervene too deeply, which is unfavorable to the development of taijidian. In case of disputes, the other side may target taijidian and let mainland enterprises give orders to Samsung or Intel, which suddenly intensifies our internal contradictions."

The Dean hit the nail on the head.

Gong Hao suddenly said, "then give up. If Xiao Shan really dares to come, let him die in Taidao!"

The Dean was startled. If he did, he would be in great trouble.

on the third day.

Li Zekai set up a new company - ark holdings.

Gerald flew directly to Xiangjiang. At Hilton's Gangli Hotel, witnessed by the specially invited media, he officially signed the equity transfer agreement with Li Zekai.

Gerald transferred 27% of TSMC's preferred shares to Fangzhou holdings at a price of $900 million.

The questions raised by the on-site media once again pushed Li Zekai to the forefront of the storm.

"Mr. Li Zekai, does your newly established ark holding take semiconductor as the investment direction?"

"Why did you buy TSMC?"

"Why is the registered capital US $4.9 billion? Is there any follow-up capital injection?"

"When will you and Li Sulan get married?"

Li Zekai wished he could take off his shoes and kill the reporter, but he had to answer them one by one.

Gong Hao watched the TV news carefully and suddenly felt bad.

Gerald's equity transfer to ark holdings is completely legal and there is no violation. However, this is obviously an illusion.

On the 4.9 billion registered capital of ark holdings.

How exactly $4.9 billion?

It is easy to think that there is capital injection in the follow-up, and that person is the controlling shareholder.

Contact Gerrard again, but he has already got on the plane and gone back to Philips.

Gong Hao felt a chill in his heart.

……

In Taiji's conference room.

General manager Zhang Zhongmou glanced at several senior managers and asked, "Shang Yi, what do you think of this?"

Jiang Shangyi, chief technology officer, smiled and said, "Li Zekai is a computer student. Where does he come from? There is someone else behind him."

"Who is it? Li Zekai's father?" Zhang Zhongmou asked.

"Impossible." Jiang Shangyi shook his head firmly. "Li Zekai's father never set foot in high technology. I think this man must be Xiaoshan."

Zhang Zhongmou nodded and said, "if it's Xiaoshan, it's reasonable. This man's ambition is big enough, but his ability is terrible. Personally, I agree with him. At least it's much better than Li Zekai."

Jiang Shangyi shook his head and said, "Xiaoshan can't control too much accumulated electricity. Gong Hao must have obstructed the board of directors."

Zhang Zhongmou was silent for a long time and nodded.

He has only a 1% stake and nothing can change.

But he is not worried about his position. No matter who comes, he must continue to be the general manager.

Because no one understands the operation of semiconductor OEM enterprises better than him. This is the enterprise he founded and even the OEM industry he invented.

Before him, all chip industries, such as Intel, designed and produced their own chips. As soon as the chips were upgraded, they had to build new factories, which was extremely expensive.

It was he who invented the OEM mode, which developed the whole chip industry vertically and greatly reduced the chip cost.

As a senior expert, no one dares to ignore his value.

Xiaoshan is undoubtedly a person who knows how to delegate power. Otherwise, it is impossible to expand so many industries, which makes it better to get along with each other.

Zhang Zhongmou expects that if Xiaoshan can control the board of directors, TSMC will complement each other and have a strategic promotion.

Yes, in his eyes, Xiao Shan is a strategist that no one can compare.

……

the forth day.

Hilton's conference room is full of more than 20 people. In addition to Xiaoshan and Li Zekai, they are all internationally famous venture capital institutions, such as red shirt capital, de Fengjie, IDG, Softbank investment, Carlyle investment, etc.

Last time Xiaoshan raised $1 billion, he took the money from red shirt capital, but this time the amount of financing was too large, so he called more than a dozen venture capitalists.

After one hour's negotiation, Xiaoshan exchanged part of the equity of taobao.com, Teana technology, fire game, true love.com and starting point.com for $4.3 billion in cash, which was directly injected into ark holdings.

This is invested in his own name, because he sells his own equity and has no relationship with Taobao websites.

Then, in the name of Teana technology, Xiaoshan invested US $800 million in ark holdings, totaling US $5.1 billion, holding 51% of the shares, and obtained the control of ark holdings.

At the same time, these institutions promised to give up their right to vote.

This is the precondition for Xiaoshan to leave without giving up and refuse to bargain.

These VCs can only accept it. After all, it's hard to find someone who can make more money than Xiaoshan.

So far, the shareholding of five companies in Xiaoshan has been reduced to 35%.

But the absolute holding has not changed. Even if these venture capitalists do not give up, Xiaoshan also has the absolute holding right, because people such as Zheng Siyi and Miao Kexin absolutely listen to him.

Subsequently, Li Zekai convened a press conference again and officially announced that Xiaoshan had become the owner of ark holdings.

All the reporters were in an uproar.

Doesn't this mean that the road controls the economic lifeline of Taidao?

The media of Taidao, Xiangjiang and Dalu, with overwhelming reports, caused an uproar all over the world.

Even the American media are extremely interested, but they just believe that Xiaoshan wants to build a semiconductor industry chain and analyze the threat to American companies.

Gong Hao was so angry that he knew that he was completely fooled by Xiao Shan.

This is definitely planned in advance. It has been under Xiaoshan's control since Philips transferred its equity.

It's just that it's no use talking about Philips now.

Philips fully fulfilled the agreement and informed Gong Hao in advance that the receiver was indeed Li Zekai and there was no violation.

But Li Zekai is a puppet. The real behind the scenes is Xiao Shan!

On the road network, there were cheers.

It's amazing to buy taijidian!

Xiaoshan immediately became an idol worshipped by the whole people, especially in the hearts of countless girls.

On the Taidao network, there are serious differences. People who worship Xiaoshan warmly welcome Xiaoshan to join taijidian and hope that Xiaoshan will lead taijidian to a new glory.

Others worry that if too much Jidian is in the hands of Xiaoshan, it will be strangled by the enemy.

Each side sticks to its own words and is in a mess.

Miao Kexin's women were stunned. Didn't they say to dig people? How did you make a fuss and buy taijidian?

In their opinion, Xiaoshan's exchange of website equity for taijidian is not worth it at all.

If the real industry makes more money, it is nothing compared with the Internet!
