"Xiao Dong, do you think they will be opportunistic again?"
Luo Yonglin quickly finished reading the information, and then he seemed to understand something, looked up at Xiao Bai and asked."
It's hard to say, but the other party will definitely not add too high.My guess is that their final offer could be $7.690 billion or $7.720 billion. ”Xiao Bai felt that the other party's offer would not be higher than $7.750 billion, and there was a high probability that it would be around $7.7 billion, but it would definitely not be lower than $7.650 billion.There is no evidence to support it, Xiao Bai only made a judgment based on analysis.Or rather, intuition."
Mr.
Luo, our final offer is $7.777 billion.I trust my own judgment and should be very different.Looking at it now, the offer is already very high. ”Xiao Bai finally decided to offer $7.777 billion, which is actually close to the ceiling price of $7.8 billion in his heart.Luo Yonglin also felt that there was nothing wrong with this offer.On the day of the third round of quotations, Xiao Bai and Luo Yonglin came to Sun's Technology Company together.Sun Xiaocai, the controlling shareholder of the other party, also came to the scene, and he did not appear in the first two rounds of offers, and coming here today means that this matter will come to an end."
Then let's get started."
Sun Xiaocai greeted everyone first, and then announced that the last round of quotations was opened.Luo Yonglin handed over the filled out quotation materials to the staff, as did the representatives of the companies on the island, and several executives of Sun's Technology Company opened the package on the spot and reviewed it.Then they whispered with Sun Xiaocai for a while."
Ladies and gentlemen, AUO's offer is $7.777 billion, and the island's companies are quoted at $7.750 billion.After our comprehensive evaluation, I now announce that AUO has won the opportunity to acquire Sun's Technology Enterprise.Congratulations to Dong Xiao!
Congratulations to Mr.
Luo!
”During the three quotations, Sun's Technology Company also negotiated other conditions with two competitors.Other than the offer, AUO did not disclose the other conditions, and neither AUO nor the island company knew what the other party's conditions were.Sun Xiaocai and the company's executives believe that AUO's conditions are more in line with the local situation, and the future development prospects will be better and more stable if the company is handed over to them.Of course, the last round of offers also played an important role."
Sun Dong, rejoice and rejoice!"
Xiao Bai stood up and stepped forward and shook hands with Sun Xiaocai.Luo Yonglin stepped forward to talk with several executives of Sun's technology company, and everyone quickly discussed the time of signing the contract and some other details.Representatives of the island's enterprises left the conference room the moment they learned of the results.This time, they obviously became the ones who accompanied the runner, and although they still retained some grace on the surface, the disappointment in their hearts was difficult to hide."
Dong Xiao, I am very relieved that the company is in your hands.Let's go to my office and sit down, I still have some good tea there, let's try it together?
”Sun Xiaocai then dragged Xiao Bai to his office.Luo Yonglin and Sun's technology executives continued to stay in the conference room, and they still had a lot of specific work to do.At night.Xiao Bai had dinner with Huang Mingxuan and Luo Yonglin in the manor."
Dong Xiao, Mr.
Luo, congratulations on taking Sun's technology enterprise into your pocket.The scale of Sun's enterprise is not very large, but it has its own uniqueness in technology, which is worth having!
”Huang Mingxuan has been silently following the progress of this matter throughout the whole process, and he has had some things at home recently, so he has also stayed in Penang during this time.Now that the dust has settled, he is also happy for Xiao Bai and the others."
Mingxuan, thank you for being the matchmaker.Without further ado, let's have a drink. ”Xiao Bai responded with a smile, and then drank a glass of wine with Huang Mingxuan and Luo Yonglin.He will leave for China tomorrow, and Luo Yonglin will stay to sign the contract and deal with some follow-up things, including the reception of the company.There is no need for Xiao Bai to worry about the acquisition funds, AUO's performance over the years has been very good, and the acquisition funds of less than 8 billion US dollars can be solved by itself.In fact, Sun Dong is also inclined to sell the company to AUO, which itself has a factory in Penang and has a strong comprehensive strength.After the successful acquisition of Sun's Technology Company, AUO's influence in the industry will further increase, which can be regarded as the last good thing that Sun Dong has done for the company. ”Huang Mingxuan felt that Xiao Bai and Luo Yonglin had won beautifully, the Times Department had been operating in Malaysia for many years, and their reputation in all aspects was good, so Sun Xiao knew how to choose.The premise is that the purchase price can be reasonable.In the last round of offers, Xiao Bai basically saw through the thoughts of the companies on the island and did not give the other party any chance.At a price of $7.777 billion, the other party's offer of $7.750 billion was successfully suppressed, and the balance of victory completely tilted to AUO's side.Following.Xiao Bai flew back to Shencheng on a business jet."
Xiao Dong, our negotiations with the two communication giants have also come to an end.The two giants will each acquire a 4.5% stake in Times Communications, while Times Technology Group will each acquire a 3% stake in the two giants. ”A few days after Xiao Bai returned to Shencheng, the negotiations on Juwenson's side were successfully completed.He came to Xiao Bai in the morning, and at the same time brought a draft agreement, and after Xiao Bai signed and confirmed, the four parties could sign the agreement separately.Xiao Bai looked at the draft agreement carefully, and then signed.The draft agreement will then be reviewed by the legal department, after which it can be formally signed."
Mr.
You, you will deal with this matter with Mr.
Qi as soon as possible."
Xiao Bai quickly handed the signed draft agreement back to Juvinson, who left the office to deal with the follow-up.This news naturally can't be hidden, and when the news came out, not only the stock price of Liao Hongxing's company rose sharply, but also the share price of Times IC Manufacturing Co., Ltd. rose a lot.It can be seen that the market reaction to this matter is positive and positive.However, Xiao Bai knows very well that this time the cooperation between several parties is essentially a group for warmth.The external environment has not changed for the better because of this incident, but for the worse.But with this alliance, the domestic market stabilized in the first place.In the long run, this mutual participation of the giants is a landmark event, and its significance may not be realized until several years later.Time flies.Xiao Bai once again came to the magic capital and participated in the coordination meeting of the EUV lithography machine.According to the meeting, the mirror project of the Northeast Institute of Optics and Mechanics has made great progress, but it will take some time to be completely successful.Xiao Bai is well aware of this result, and it is precisely because of the participation of the Times Science and Technology Research Institute that the research and development of the objective lens project has been accelerated sharply.Zhou Siyi invested 5.5 billion yuan in this project, and sent a capable research team to the Institute of Optics and Mechanics.The scientific research results and intellectual property rights generated by the project are jointly owned by both parties."
Chairman Xiao, in general, the EUV lithography machine project still has a long way to go."
After the meeting, Fan Donglin invited Xiao Bai to lunch.Fan Donglin did not have high expectations for this (EUV) project, and he estimated that it would take at least three to five years for the entire project to succeed, if not longer."
Everything is difficult at the beginning, as long as the pre-technology research and development is successful, the follow-up research and development work may be accelerated.Mr.
Fan, how is the company doing recently?
”Xiao Bai smiled, this project is a project that must be done, not to mention three or five years, even ten or eight years have to grit your teeth and do it.Moreover, he believes that he will succeed in five years.However, he doesn't want to say too much about this project.It's not appropriate to say anything now, you just need to work silently.So, he changed the topic and asked about the current situation of Pudong microelectronic equipment."
The company is running smoothly and its revenue is growing steadily.As you know, we have invested too much R&D funds over the years, and the operating costs remain high, diluting the profits.We are unique in the field of low-end lithography machines, and our current market share in China has exceeded eighty-five, and we have also won a lot of orders in the world.In the high-end lithography equipment, our 28N lithography machine has basically matured, and the technical indicators have reached or approached the level of foreign counterparts.There are still a lot of improvements to be made in the 14N lithography machine, and we plan to launch a new generation of products within six months. ”When Fan Donglin talked about Pudong microelectronic equipment, he came to the spirit.The company has achieved good results under his leadership, especially the mature 28N lithography machine has become the new favorite of the market.At present, not only the times of IC manufacturing, many domestic IC manufacturers have begun to order this equipment (28n lithography machine), the product has formed a large-scale mass production, but also to the company has also brought a steady stream of profits.With this flagship product, Pudong Microelectronics intends to truly have the capital to compete with international giants.It has also made the situation of domestic IC manufacturing enterprises have improved.Advanced manufacturing processes can't go on for the time being, for example, Times IC Manufacturing Co., Ltd. will stop at the 7n node.However, the mature process, which accounts for the majority of the market share, has gradually emerged from the crisis.This is remarkable, and it can be called an important turning point.After eating, Xiao Bai and Fan Donglin separated.Fan Donglin returned to the company, while Xiao Bai went to Times IC Co., Ltd."
Dong Wei, Mr.
Liang, it's rare that both of you are here."
As soon as Xiao Bai got out of the car, he saw Wei Jianjun and Liang Jinsong who were waiting for him.One of these two people is the chairman of a listed company, and the other is the CEO, and it is usually difficult to get together."
Dong Xiao, let's go to the office and sit for a while?"
Wei Jianjun now spends half of his time on the journey, and the booth of the IC manufacturing of the times is getting bigger and bigger, as the general manager of the group company and the chairman of the listed company, how can he have a free time?
Liang Jinsong stayed in the magic capital very peacefully, he is good at technology, especially the process research and development of advanced processes, which can better reflect his value in this position.For this reason, with Xiao Bai's consent, the listed company also specially assigned him a deputy.The deputy focused on the management of the company, and the two had a clear division of labor, and so far they got along very well.The enterprises under the Times Department are more taboo about internal consumption.Although there are rivers and lakes where there are people, there must still be a degree, and if the limit is exceeded, some people will be unlucky."
Let's go directly to the factory and have a look, well, just go to see your national production 14N production line, by the way, have all the problems encountered in this line been solved?"
Xiao Bai shook his head and went directly to the factory accompanied by Wei Jianjun and Liang Jinsong."
Partially solved, but the equipment is unstable, and occasionally happens.Fortunately, our yield rate has increased a bit, and we plan to enter the risk mass production stage next month to see how the effect is. ”During the whole process, it was Liang Jinsong who was answering technical questions to Xiao Bai.This nationally produced (de-M) production line actually has the nature of technical testing, mainly to test the stability of domestic equipment.Now it seems that the technical performance of some equipment needs to be improved.Of course, according to the actual situation analysis, these current devices can be used.The yield index has also been improved to an acceptable level, and the conditions for mass production have been initially met."
Well, Wei Dong and Mr.
Liang, the localized 14N production line we are building will definitely be able to use a new generation of 14N lithography machine.At that time, the stability of the equipment will be further improved, and you will have the experience of running in all the equipment, and the effect will be much better than now. ”Xiao Bai timely revealed the movement of Pudong microelectronic equipment, which he had just heard from Fan Donglin's mouth.The improved 14N lithography machine will be better than the existing equipment, and the technical indicators have also been improved."
That's great!
Not to mention, Fan Dong, their reaction speed is quite fast, how long has it been, and they are planning to launch the second generation (14N) product?
”When Wei Jianjun heard this, his eyes immediately lit up.The process level of listed companies is still quite good, but if the equipment is not up to standard, no matter how good the technology is, it will not be able to play a good role.Pudong Microelectronics launched improved products so quickly, which somewhat exceeded Wei Jianjun's expectations and gave him a big surprise."
Well, within half a year, we should be able to catch up with the installation and commissioning of the equipment of the new production line.Wei Dong, you arrange for someone to contact Pudong Microelectronics as soon as possible. ”Since the improved device is not strictly a new device, but only repairs some minor defects on the existing basis, it does not need to be technically verified from scratch.From the point of view of time, it is completely too late to replace the improved equipment of the new production line (14N), but it is time to communicate with Pudong Microelectronics."

Okay, Dong Xiao, I'll call Dong Fan right away."
As Wei Jianjun spoke, he walked to the side and called Fan Donglin.Fan Donglin laughed when he heard this, and he told Wei Jianjun that the company's first-generation 14N lithography machine will soon be discontinued, and all the products supplied in the future will be improved second-generation products.Wei Jianjun was relieved.Xiao Bai walked around the factory for an hour and walked out.Subsequently, I went to the administrative building and briefly listened to the work reports of Wei Jianjun and Liang Jinsong.Liang Jinsong spoke first, there is nothing new in the situation he introduced, and in the process of inspecting the production line just now, it was actually involved.
