In the years when the LCD panel was stuck in the neck, the days of domestic color TV companies are simply indescribable!
However, fortunately, there was a Beijing Oriental Technology in China, and after ten years of lying on the salary, it finally rose up and beat the Japanese-funded panel companies, especially the Taiwan-funded panel companies, to take revenge."
Mr.
Xu, if we want not to be stuck in the future, we have to enter the display device industry now.Whether it is plasma display technology or liquid crystal display technology, we always have to choose a technical route. ”Xiao Bai's decision was to choose liquid crystal display technology.And other domestic color TV companies,It's not without a sense of crisis。
Just as Changhong Electric chose plasma display technology in the future, it invested heavily in the plasma panel production line.It's just a pity that Changhong Electric gambled in the wrong direction, and was deceived by scammers for billions of dollars, and finally declined.After listening to Xiao Bai's words, Xu Changqing pondered for a long time.He didn't ask Xiao Bai why he was sure that the LCD technology would win, as the other party just said, you have to choose one of the two paths.Choose one of the two, the odds of winning 50, it depends on the vision and wisdom of the decision-maker."
Xiao Dong, I think I understand what you are thinking.In the future, IC manufacturing will face the same problem, right?
If you can't master the advanced manufacturing process, you will eventually be stuck. ”Xu Changqing is not a stupid person, on the contrary, he is a very smart person who can draw inferences from one case to another.From Xiao Bai's words, he heard a sense of crisis.It was precisely because of tonight's conversation that Xu Changqing changed a lot of inherent thoughts in his heart, and it was only at this time that he realized that he was really a little too conservative.As the saying goes, people who have no long-term worries must have near-term worries, and a conversation with Xiao Bai finally aroused Xu Changqing's sense of distress."
Xiao Dong, we don't have much technical accumulation in LCD technology, and I'm afraid we will encounter unimaginable difficulties in the future!"
Although Xu Changqing understood Xiao Bai's thoughts, the reality was very cruel, lacking technology and talents, and this road was not easy to follow."
Mr.
Xu, he is not so pessimistic.A closer look at the origin of liquid crystal technology is actually born out of integrated circuit manufacturing, and thin-film transistors were originally an alternative, but they stand out in the display field.There is a saying that liquid crystal technology and chip manufacturing technology are born from the same root, and there are many experiences to learn from each other. ”Xiao Bai smiled, he was still very confident.After eating a meal until more than ten o'clock in the evening, Xiao Bai and Xu Changqing left the East Lake Hotel.Today's meal is worth it, at least the two of them have eliminated a lot of misunderstandings and have more understanding.Half a month later.Times Optoelectronics LCD module factory was completed and put into operation, two months ahead of the original plan.When Xiao Bai saw Shang Liancheng, he was startled, he hadn't seen him for a long time, Shang Liancheng had lost a lot of weight, and his eye sockets were sunken."
Mr.
Shang, you should also pay more attention to your body.You can't always work so hard, if you're tired, who else can the company rely on?
”Xiao Bai really looked a little distressed, he worked so hard that he couldn't find many in the entire era department."
Fortunately, I finally successfully completed the task you gave me.Through this construction of the factory, I and the technical backbone of the company have almost mastered the key to the LCD module production line.If we continue to expand production in the future, the production line will not need to cooperate with others, and we will decide to build a qualified production line. ”The first time the factory was built, Shang Liancheng and others basically ate the LCD module production line, which shows how much effort they put into this process.However, if you have thoroughly understood the LCD module production line, you may not be able to build a TFT-LCD production line by yourself, and the technical difficulty of the two is different."
Mr.
Shang, so we still have to actively introduce talents.By the way, have you made any progress in your engagement with the modern side?
”Although Xiao Bai has the determination to be self-reliant, if he can introduce technology, he will not miss the opportunity.The introduction of advanced technology at the same time as self-developed technology is not contradictory in itself."
There hasn't been any progress yet, but I think Hyundai is still sincere enough to keep in touch with them."
Negotiations for mergers and acquisitions or technology transfer are often protracted.He was mentally prepared for this Xiao Bai, he nodded, and asked Shang Liancheng not to be discouraged, but to actively contact with modern times.Xiao Bai then walked around the entire factory, accompanied by Shang Liancheng.The current production of the LCD module factory is to make a supporting match for Samsung, of course, the company can receive other orders, without affecting the delivery to Samsung at the same time, love how to produce it."
Mr.
Shang, the company's various living facilities must keep up.I will discuss with other directors to finalize staff dormitories and recreational facilities as soon as possible. ”Xiao Bai felt that the company's facilities were not complete, except for the staff restaurant, which was not bad, other places needed to be improved.A few days passed.Xiao Bai met with Yang Xuecheng and Li Longbin and discussed the supporting facilities of Times Optoelectronics.The welfare of enterprises is not a trivial matter, if all aspects of the conditions are very poor, I am afraid it is difficult to introduce talents on a large scale.Li Longbin and Yang Xuecheng are very open-minded people, and Xiao Bai's suggestions have smoothly become board resolutions."
Xiao Dong, shouldn't you also rest for a few days?
I don't think your complexion is very good, and some things can't be rushed. ”Everyone was busy with business, and Li Longbin looked at Xiao Bai and frowned.Xiao Bai was indeed a little busy during this time, the key was that he had encountered difficulties in breaking through in several directions, and he was a little angry."
I also want to be calm, but there are some things that are really annoying.But it's not a big deal, Li Dong, Mr.
Yang, let's go to have a meal together at noon. ”Xiao Bai smiled and waved his hand, indicating that he didn't have much of a problem.These days, Wei Jianjun's technical verification work and Times Optoelectronics' talent introduction plan have made him very worried.So he's been suffering from a little insomnia lately, apparently because he's overthinking."
It's okay!
Let's go, let's eat. ”Li Longbin and Yang Xuecheng were relieved, so the three of them went to eat something at noon, and then went to the golf club to play for two hours.On the way back to the company, Xiao Bai received a call from Shang Liancheng."
Dong Xiao, there is an urgent matter that must be reported to you.I just called your office and said you're out, where do you think I'm looking for you?
”Shang Liancheng was obviously in a hurry, but the matter was not clear on the phone, so he was in a hurry to meet Xiao Bai."
I happened to be outside, don't run away, I'll go to the company to find you."
Xiao Bai hung up the machine after speaking, and then asked the driver to go to the Times Optoelectronics LCD Factory, Shang Liancheng was over there at this time."
Dong Xiao, there was a sudden financial crisis on the Hyundai side of South Korea, and the company's stock fluctuated violently.Just a few hours ago, Hyundai announced the sale of its TFT-LCD assets, including a Gen 2, Gen 3 and Gen 35 production lines. ”Xiao Bai just walked into Shang Liancheng's office and sat down, he couldn't even take care of drinking saliva, and Shang Liancheng hurriedly reported the news he had gotten."
Mr.
Shang, don't worry, let's talk about one thing at a time.Hyundai has long been interested in selling its TFT-LCD assets and related technologies, but this matter has only become clear today, so is there any other question?
”Xiao Bai is not surprised by Hyundai's decision, which suffered a heavy blow during the Asian financial crisis and will have to break its arm to survive sooner or later.And selling their LCD assets is their only choice."
I heard that after the news of Hyundai was released, there were two merchants who were interested in negotiating purchases.Among them is a domestic enterprise, and there is also a treasure island enterprise. ”Shang Liancheng was anxious to see Xiao Bai for this reason, he was still hiding in Hyundai before, but now he can't wait to let everyone know that there are multiple buyers.That's right, it's Hyundai himself who is making a positive noise."
It's okay, it's normal to meet opponents in M&A.Where is that domestic company you are talking about?
It can't be from the capital, right?
”If it is a company in Beijing, it is probably the Oriental Technology Company in Beijing, after all, this company used to make display devices and has a strong strength in desktop computer displays.As a result, when I heard Shang Liancheng's answer, it was really Oriental Technology."
That's it, Mr.
Shang, you transfer two technicians from the company, and I will ask Mr.
You to immediately set up a negotiation team and let him lead the team to talk with Hyundai.You is always a master negotiator, and the technical things are taken care of by the technicians you send, and he is responsible for the negotiations. ”Xiao Bai made a decision and decided to send a negotiation team to formally negotiate with Hyundai.The factory has just been put into production, and Shang Liancheng can't leave for the time being.Xiao Bai dispatched Juvinson and others to talk to Hyundai immediately.If things are a little clear, Shang Liancheng will go to South Korea again, so that the production of the LCD module factory will not be delayed.After the two discussed, Xiao Bai quickly informed Juvinson.Juvinson, as Xiao Bai's deputy, is now a leading figure in the times, and letting him go out shows how much Xiao Bai attaches importance to this project.In the following days, Juvinson familiarized himself with the entire negotiation plan, and also learned about some technical issues, so he led the team to South Korea.Before leaving, Xiao Bai specially told Juwenson that he must pay attention to the company on that treasure island.Judging by the laws of history, it is very likely that the company is acting as a stirring stick.Sure enough, two days after Juvinson arrived in Hyundai, news came back that it was the Jiandu company of the treasure island that proposed to form a consortium with Dongfang Electronics to exclude Times Optoelectronics.This round of negotiations can be regarded as a thorough investigation of all aspects.Hyundai offered $4.5 billion to sell three production lines and introduced some basic information, and the first round of negotiations ended.The second round of negotiations will take place in three days' time, and that will be the time for the sword.
