"Xu Dong, we are willing to order two KrF lithography machines for your group company, we are willing to act for your group for the silicon wafer rods produced by us, and we are willing to invite your group company to join our semiconductor industry alliance..." The secretary was instructed to take out the document and read it aloud.
This person is proficient in Chinese and has a soft and pleasant voice, but Xu Zhenming can't help being shocked by what he said.
The KrF lithography machine is the third-generation krypton fluoride lithography machine. It is currently the most advanced lithography machine in the world. Can Americans sell islanders to China?
It is also possible to think about it. With the collapse of the northern powers, the infamous "Battle-Unification Agreement" also disappeared.The "Wat Senner Agreement" restricting the development of China has not been signed, and it will not be formally signed until July this year.
But even so, do the Americans leave it alone?
Intel is also using KrF lithography machines. Will they agree to the flow of this advanced equipment into China?
Facing China for the first time to have an advanced lithography machine that is synchronized with the world's technological trends, Xu Zhenming was really moved.Although he knew it was a poison pill, he was still more heart-stricken.
You can get the most advanced equipment for as long as you spend money. Who is not interested?
Seeing this scene, Fujita Seki's mouth rose slightly, and a triumphant smile appeared on his face.
The representatives who came with him also smiled triumphantly at this time.
They are from NEC, Panasonic, Sony, Toshiba, Nikon, Hitachi, Canon... and other international brand-name companies in the island country.If in normal times, they do not belong to a consortium, they are competitors.But now they all follow Fujita Seki obediently, and are happy together.
Xu Zhenming's current unbearable expression is exactly the same as they expected. Why are they upset?
And Xu Zhenming is doing ideological struggle at this time:
“It’s better to buy by yourself! What is the difference between my current thinking and all the people in the country? If there is a company in China that can manufacture cutting-edge lithography machines, only Yiming Group can do it. Other companies even have five axes. Linked CNC machine tools can't be made, can you make lithography machines?"
In addition to cutting-edge systems such as the light source system and lens system, the main body system of the machine tool is also very critical. The positioning accuracy of the mechanical system must be less than 0.001 mm.
Americans and islanders choose special mechanical technology when manufacturing this equipment, such as pneumatic bearings and adding a workbench balance system.
Only in this way can the accuracy and stability of the lithography machine table be ensured.
The domestic machine tool factories in China have never heard of this technology. How to develop it?
Moreover, with the rapid development of the domestic economy, entrepreneurs are becoming more and more impetuous. How many bosses are still studying technology?
Thinking of this, Xu Zhenming immediately pressed the idea of buying two KrF lithography machines.
He was determined to give the Hu Mingzhen team time to make the domestic lithography machine.It doesn't matter if the accuracy of the first lithography machine is not high, it does not matter if the Chinese have such experience and R&D experience.
"Mr. Fujita, are the two KrF lithography machines provided by your organization all from Nikon?" Thinking of this, Xu Zhenming asked Fujita Seki quietly.
He wants to see what medicine is sold in this person's gourd!
Seeing Xu Zhenming got into the set, Fujita Seki smiled triumphantly: "No, one is Canon and the other is Nikon."
While he answered Xu Zhenming, the representatives of those island nations nodded and smiled triumphantly, maintaining a reserved demeanor.
The scheme they adopted is understandable. After all, these two companies are both on the blacklist of Yiming Group and belong to the scope of the sued company.At this kind of moment, of course, we must have a good relationship with Yiming Group.
Thinking of this, Xu Zhenming asked calmly: "If our group company orders, when can we receive these two KrF lithography machines?"
This is an important point!
If they can receive these two devices immediately, it shows that the islanders still have some sincerity and are willing to provide the most advanced equipment to Chinese enterprises.If you want to wait more than a year, it's purely fucking.
This incident is just another poisonous pill for the people of the island nation. The next pie is waiting for Xu Zhenming to be fooled!
as predicted.
After hearing this, Fujita Seki frowned and said: "Xu Dong, because there are more orders. We will provide these two KrF lithography machines in July 1997."
This is equivalent to not saying.
At that time, Intel will ask suppliers to provide KrF lithography machines with shorter wavelengths.The lithography machine that the islanders sold to Yiming Group is one generation behind Intel.
From this point of view, there is a problem with their starting point. Maybe they already know that Yiming Group is developing a lithography machine.They used this toxic bait to fool Xu Zhenming and gave up their own plan to develop a third-generation lithography machine.
Its intentions are extremely vicious!
Not only that, but in their stated conditions, the goals of Articles 2 and 3 are also very clear, which is to make Xu Zhenming give up his investment plan to build a silicon wafer factory.
Just imagine, if you have a very easy way to make money, you will make money by producing silicon wafer rods yourself?
In addition, after Yiming Group joins the Island Country Semiconductor Industry Alliance, can it easily obtain various resources, and will it have the intention to build its own supply chain?
However, this kind of treatment is relatively risky. What if the islanders turn their faces after the signing of the "Wa Senner Agreement"?
Fortunately, Xu Zhenming is a reborn person who has experienced the "Zhongxing Incident" and the "Huawei Incident".Otherwise, he will be confused by Fujita Seki’s preferential terms and give up sticking to the path of self-development.
From this point of view, the success of islanders and Americans is no accident.People's routines are too deep, and the Chinese people will be taken in by accident and deceived.
With these in mind, Xu Zhenming had to think of a complete solution.He wants to achieve his goal, but also to confuse the islanders in front of him.If you want to play tricks, the Chinese can be said to be their ancestors. Who is afraid of whom?
"Mr. Fujita Seki, I don't think you are sincere in coming to negotiate this trip. A dozen companies in your industry alliance have stolen our Yiming Group's patents and have earned more than four billion U.S. dollars. Up to now, none of you have Talking about this, I don’t want to compensate our Yiming Group. What is your attitude?"
Xu Zhenming's face instantly sank, and he asked Fujita Seki with a straight face.
The attitude he showed was anger and greed, and he asked the islanders to pay two billion US dollars first, and then add the preferential terms just now.
"Shameless and greedy!" Looking at Xu Zhenming's angry appearance, Fujita Seki cursed Xu Zhenming in his heart.He did not expect that Xu Zhenming would do this and easily break the first set of laws he set.
The representatives of the island enterprises who participated in the meeting were also very shocked at this time.They didn't expect Xu Zhenming to suddenly turn his face, and the lion opened his mouth and asked for two billion US dollars.
Is this still coming?
No one will spit out the profits they have eaten!
"Xu Dong, your algorithm is wrong. We at Sony did not get such high-profile profits, and the losses were very heavy, and our market share in China declined particularly sharply."
"Yes, yes! It's the same with Hitachi. Xu Dong, you have to hold your hands high."
"Xu Dong, the profit of U disk, USB chipset, MP3 and other products is not as high as you think."
After receiving Fujita Seki’s eyes, the representatives of the island countries who came to the meeting began to complain.
They all complained that Xu Zhenming's asking price was relatively high and the estimated profit amount was wrong, and they asked Xu Zhenming to let their business go.
This plan is also planned before they came to Yiming Group, and it belongs to the scope of the second plan.
When these people were grieving, Fujita Seki looked at Xu Zhenming silently and observed Xu Zhenming's every move.He wants to find out what Xu Zhenming's heart can bear, so as to prescribe the right medicine.
Xu Zhenming still maintained his angry and greedy appearance at this time, wanting to become a fat man with one bite.
He doesn't care how the islanders complain, but asks He Lu and Wang Zhuoya to prepare the materials, take out the third-party survey and statistics data, and send them to the islanders present.
In the face of facts and the data of third-party agencies, the complaints of islanders are much smaller.However, they still grimace, sighing, wanting to win Xu Zhenming's sympathy.
"Xu Dong, we came with sincerity. Because of this litigation storm war, our companies have suffered very great losses. Can you give us an understanding and reduce the amount of compensation. Of course, the term "compensation" must not be compensated. The brand of our company has suffered."
Seeing that the fire had arrived, Fujita Seki began to play tragic cards again.He knew that Chinese people love face and are soft-hearted. As long as Xu Zhenming is praised high, Xu Zhenming will definitely give concessions.
But he miscalculated again this time!
Xu Zhenming didn't take that set at all, and shook his head with a serious expression, "Less than 2 billion US dollars, let's not talk about it at all."
He was fully prepared this time and would not fall into a patent trap like another inventor of the U disk in time and space, be bullied by foreigners, and didn't make much money.
Before the release of U disk, USB chipset and MP3, Yiming Group has applied for patents worldwide.Since islanders want to commit crimes against the wind, they must be punished.
Otherwise, what's the use of patenting?
Seeing Xu Zhenming's greedy appearance, Fujita Guan's face suddenly sank, "Xu Dong, don't we have to talk?"
"Okay, Mr. Fujita Seki. Let's talk about it today." Xu Zhenming also stood up with an uncomfortable expression, as if to terminate the meeting immediately.
If you don't talk about it, don't talk about it, and Yiming Group does not matter!
Now the losses are for companies from island nations. Although Yiming Group will also suffer losses, many domestic companies are making huge profits.For example, a VCD company, a TV company, an air conditioner company... and so on.
While taking advantage of the damage to the brand of island-state enterprises, these enterprises vigorously promoted their patriotic sentiments and directly swallowed the market gap left by island-state enterprises.Over time, the products of island companies may lose the crisis of the Chinese market.
Who suffers, Fujita Seki doesn’t know yet?
as predicted.
Fujita Seki suddenly laughed again, "Xu Dong, don't be angry. We have come with the utmost sincerity. Moreover, before this, our country’s leaders communicated with the relevant departments of your country by phone. He instructed us to reach an agreement to end this commercial dispute war."
Fujita Seki began to play politics again, implying Xu Zhenming that they have received support from the island government.
If Xu Zhenming is the boss of a state-owned enterprise, he will also worry about the island government.What if he travels to the island country one day and is detained by the islander?Or, what if the funds he transferred abroad are deducted by foreigners?
But Xu Zhenming is the owner of a private enterprise, so he still cares about this?
Thinking of this, Xu Zhenming shook his head, "Your semiconductor industry alliance must also compensate at least US$2 billion, otherwise there is no talk!"
"One billion U.S. dollars, and used second-hand chip production lines, second-hand battery production lines, second-hand LCD display production lines, second-hand silicon wafer production lines, etc., to offset in kind."
Fujita Seki had no choice but to start bargaining according to the third set of plans.He regarded Xu Zhenming as a waste collection station and used the production lines eliminated by the island country to offset the account.
Then again, many companies in China have made their fortunes by purchasing second-hand foreign production lines.
Even Xu Zhenming is no exception.He looked at Fujita Seki’s face and made a slight concession, “Mr. Fujita Seki, you have to pay 1.8 billion U.S. dollars and give two KrF lithography machines to let Yiming Group join the island country semiconductor industry alliance. This is our The last condition."
At this moment, he deliberately exposed a more greedy side. He wanted to get the two KrF lithography machines and also wanted to join the island country semiconductor industry alliance.
Greedy, too greedy!
How could Fujita Seki agree?He shook his head repeatedly, "No, no, no more than 1.5 billion dollars."
1.5 billion dollars is equivalent to more than 100 million dollars in compensation for every island country enterprise.This is similar to the amount of compensation for the Big Blue, and much more than the Big Three in Korea.
The representatives of the island countries who came to the meeting were very regretful at this time, "Why do we listen to the Americans? If we are like the Koreans, how much money should we save? It's so special, the Americans are bad."
"A price of 1.8 billion US dollars. If it is less, we will not talk about it today, and we will continue to talk about it tomorrow." At this time, Xu Zhenming thought that the rhythm was almost the same, and said the most suitable price in his mind.
Even so, the island nation’s businesses have also made a profit through infringement.They have to make at least two billion dollars.Not only that, they also realized the outdated second-hand production line as a cash repayment to Yiming Group.In other words, as long as Fujita Seki nodded his head, they only made a profit for this transaction.
Therefore, all the representatives present here looked up at Fujita Seki, hoping that Fujita Seki would immediately give in and accept Xu Zhenming's 1.8 billion U.S. dollar offer.
However, this offer is 200 million US dollars higher than the index obtained by Fujita Seki.
Which line of this?
If he signs an agreement, the old guys in the consortium will let him commit suicide and sink him into the water of Tokyo Bay.For the safety of his life, Fujita Seki smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Xu Dong, I am very tired now. Let's take a break, can we?"
"No problem." Seeing Fujita Seki's attitude, Xu Zhenming was very big.
He knew that he had won, and he could get at least 1.5 billion yuan in second-hand production lines to return to China.
With these production lines, the semiconductor components of the TV industry, electrical appliance industry, and small household appliance industry in China can be fully localized.
What could be more pleasant than something?
