Chapter 849

They have picked a few more attractive ones, about one million more for a + venture capital. Even the giants like Comcast will devote themselves to the construction of cable broadband infrastructure next year. If they have any worries, they will have a better life.

Even if start-ups are risky and have a low success rate, as long as the 11 million venture capital can incubate, not to mention Netscape, listed companies like DTS will not lose.

"Director Jiang promised to help with the team's recruitment. He said that he had just received a loan from the local government and continued to concentrate on making VCD machines. Next year, he would upgrade the production line and expand the manufacturing scale to cope with the competition."

"Palm has had a good life since it was acquired by American robot company. Jeffrey Hawkins and other founding teams have a very stable R & D environment. His mind to do PDA has revived, and he plans to launch the next generation of PDA products next year."

"Jim Clark took me into a venture capital project, which is included in that 11 million, and intends to make professional management software for the medical industry. He said it was a promise to you, and he asked me to remind you that there will be big moves in Netscape next month, that is, next January. "

Dr. Chen continued to report that the shares of the three companies managed by a + venture capital are not high, with 15% of Wanyan, 5% of palm and 3% of Netscape. They can only passively accept the operational decisions of the actual controllers of the company.

At present, the only one who can make decisions is 3dfx. After additional investment, a + venture capital has become the largest shareholder of this 3D accelerated chip company, with about 38% of the shares. Therefore, he hosted a dinner party in Highland Park, tail of the company in 1995. He personally hosted the founding trio of 3dfx accompanied by maybers, as well as the newly recruited president Ballard.

"Where are your bodyguards?" Trio leader Ross Smith was impressed with Tony and the muffler.

"Bodyguard? Oh, that's my cousin. They're on vacation in the Caribbean. " Song Ya replied.

"Ha ha, you can rest assured aplus, we have already started to accept orders from graphic card manufacturers. The situation has changed. They need our voodoo chip, voodoo1."

The trio was shivering in the cold Chicago wind. Ross Smith took a breath of heat, put the collar of his overcoat up and his neck retracted. He kept moving, warming and protesting: "I said, can we come into the room and talk? Your wharf is beautiful, but it is It's just a little cold. "

On purpose, song Ya was not satisfied with the three swindlers. He touched his warm mink coat and said, "don't you enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Great Lakes?"

"Well, all right." Ross Smith rushes to the wharf nuozui. "The scenery is really good. There should be a yacht here. I heard that Mr. Jim Clark is going to spend hundreds of millions of yuan to build his dream sailing boat. It will take three years to build it alone."

"There used to be one. I sent people to the Bahamas."

The ship was sent by Mariah Carey. She had already gone to the Bahamas through the developed inland river system of the United States. After divorce, she still owned the boat. Thinking that the two had quarreled for the yacht several times before, everything was just like yesterday. Song Ya couldn't help but feel a little sad.

"We plan to set the video card manufacturers into different cooperation levels, cooperation mode, chip price and supply quantity, so that we can better control them."

Said Ballard, 3dfx's president, who was also shivering with the three.

"Well, go in and talk about it in detail." Song Ya stopped "punishment" when he did not have a grudge against him.

"Yes Three people group happy to run to the villa, midway also picked up the area of snow kneaded into snowballs hit each other.

"These guys..."

Although they lie and have big mouths, these three men are really big boys with full value of science and technology house property. Their childlike innocence makes song Ya shake his head and smile bitterly. If you didn't know that these three guys were not so bad and didn't love money so much, they would not have increased their capital for the second time. At that time, the Trio also transferred many of their founder's shares for the company's sake, and at the same time paid for the company's control.

They are somewhat similar to Jeffrey Hawkins of palm. Their technical ambition is the first, they don't like the tedious management affairs, and put money in the second place.

"In February next year, TSMC, our chip foundry, will start the official version of the commercial chip production of voodoo1. In March, we will launch a joint test with the video card manufacturers. The products will be launched in May and will be put on sale at the end of May. Publicity activities and media advertisements will also be carried out simultaneously. At present, there will be three of our top-level partners, ORCID, STB and imperial. They will participate in testing earlier and more deeply, produce products on the market earlier, and get more chips at cheaper wholesale prices. "

Entering the warm room, Ballard began to report formally, "the second level is innovation, Elsa..."

"Wait a minute." Song Ya interrupted him, "bring innovation to the first level."

"Well, aplus, this is related to the purchase scale of manufacturers. If they want to improve the cooperation level, they should order more chips from us instead of..." Ballard said hesitantly."You're an inventory management expert, Ballard. I can understand your work."

Ballard is a senior manager from a headhunting company. At present, he is doing very well. Song Ya mildly said, "but you know, I have a good relationship with the two innovative bosses. Their boss Hu specially called me a few days ago to ask me. I'm still the spokesman of their shenbaka. Have you seen my advertisement for them?"

"Of course, we are all users of their Sound Blaster card."

Ross Smith continued, "it's good to use. You're smiling brightly on his home's packaging, aplus."

"Please allow me to discuss with them..." Ballard did not immediately agree. Instead, he took the trio and Dr. may to the side for a small meeting, and then made a few phone calls. "OK, yes, but we need to sign a supplementary agreement with innovation. They should keep this matter in strict secret. Otherwise, other partners will rebel and innovation will face our fine."

"We are upstream companies, the last thing we want to see is a graphics card manufacturer challenging our authority."

Rose Smith said triumphantly, "we will be out of stock to those who are dishonest."

"Aren't you afraid that they will switch to other chip manufacturers?" Dr. Chen asked.

"There is no competitor to match the voodoo chip." "We're going to be in a very good seller's market for at least 1996," Ballard said

"I'll say that we'll be right about aplus, and your investment will not be wasted." Rose Smith said with a smile.

"Well..."

Song Ya was satisfied and continued to study the documents in hand. Among the lower level manufacturers, the names of crooked enterprises appeared most frequently, accounting for more than half of them. Now it is a global manufacturing center for electronics and semiconductors, and even keeps ahead of Silla, which the United States has specially supported to suppress the semiconductor industry.

Well done, he was also very satisfied, "does not a Chinese mainland enterprise have any?" However, it seems that no mainland enterprises have been found.

"The unified pricing of our 3D accelerator card will be very expensive, and the consumption and manufacturing capacity of mainland China are not good." Ross Smith said.

"Oh." Song Yanu nuzui, put down the document.

"Only one has submitted an application." Ballard saw the boss's mind, "it seems to be called QDI. Yes, the QDI manufacturing department under Lanoff is mainly OEM."

"Now that you have applied..." Song Ya's crazy hint.

"OK, I'll put them on our list of manufacturers."

Ballard nodded. "It's not difficult to make a display card. I'll ask people to give them some technical help, but it's also important to keep it secret."
