Chapter 502 (1/2)
On the whole, the talks between Gao Xian and frank Cary were pushed forward layer by layer. After visiting Gao Xian industrial estate, it came to the bottom of the house.
In this regard, Gao Xian didn't bother to talk much and directly handed over the statements that could be consulted by Goldman Sachs.
Frank Cary and his entourage read it carefully, and then became more and more aware that Huanyu computer company has a tight layout and the picture is not small.
First, in terms of hardware, Huanyu computer company has built a supply chain that includes all important components, including 15% of Intel and 20% of ZILOG, another microprocessor supplier; Factories and R & D departments are located in Silicon Valley in the United States, Toronto in Canada, and Xiangjiang and Singapore with obvious cost advantages in Asia; Moreover, Huanyu computer company, focusing on the European market, is planning to open factories in Ireland, which gives various preferential conditions in order to attract high-tech industries.
Secondly, Huanyu computer company has a R & D team of more than 400 people around the world, accounting for about one fifth of the total number of employees. It is not outstanding, but the results are considerable. It has prepared and implemented detailed and mature Huanyu personal computer technical specifications.
What is norm? To give a simple example, such as the electrical performance and communication protocol of the slot on the motherboard. As long as the third-party manufacturer develops according to these requirements, the expansion card products can work together with the whole Huanyu personal computer system.
It is worth mentioning that in the next version of the draft Huanyu personal computer technical specifications, which is still in a confidential state, and on the product roadmap of Huanyu computer company, it is very clear that Huanyu computer company will officially launch 32 personal computer products in the next eight years at most.
IBM and others are sweating. You know, at this stage, IBM's mainstream mainframe computer products are 32. According to the product roadmap of Huanyu computer company and the technical specifications of Huanyu personal computer, isn't there a huge risk of being eliminated within ten years?
This is by no means an empty statement. With the technical maturity of Huanyu computer company and sufficient financial support, it is highly possible to become the overlord of the personal computer industry, which will naturally extend its tentacles to the high end.
Frank Cary didn't want to explore the details such as the level of production line management. He found Gao Xian and made it clear that ”IBM is ready to buy Huanyu computer company according to the terms offered by Sir Gao, but more detailed negotiations need to be held in the United States, because my stay in Xiangjiang can't be too long.”
Gao Xian nodded with great understanding. The CEO of a huge business Kingdom like IBM can be called a day-to-day machine. It's not easy to come to Xiangjiang and talk to himself for two days.
”It will take me about a week to deal with the matter at hand, and then I will leave for the United States.” Gao Xian agreed to move the negotiation table between the two sides to the United States on the other side of the Pacific Ocean.
In this way, Frank Cary returned home after staying in Xiangjiang for two days; Little Watson was much more casual. He spent two more days in Xiangjiang, and then went to a book.
Of course, this has nothing to do with Gao Xian. He is busy leading his team to Beijing to prepare for a long-term visit.
……
Thanks to the early-stage work in place and the vigorous momentum of Sir Gao and Gao's consortium, Gao Xian basically achieved all the predetermined goals in his short five-day trip to the mainland.
For example, in terms of hotel cooperation, the Great Wall Hotel construction plan with an investment scale of 80 million US dollars has been determined.
The background is that with the increasing foreign exchanges, the reception capacity of hotels in the mainland that can meet international standards is seriously insufficient. Therefore, a leading group for the construction of Tourist Hotels with overseas Chinese and foreign capital was specially established this summer to be responsible for the introduction of funds, equipment and management technology.
Far sighted and powerful Chinese capital on Xiangjiang side are actively participating, such as Huo Yingdong, Bao Yugang, Li Bancheng, etc., including Gao Xian's father-in-law Yi Mingzhe.
However, Gao Xian didn't join hands with the Yi family. The reason is not that there are disagreements between the two sides, but that there is inevitably a problem of supporting the protagonist in this operation. It's hard for his son-in-law to rob his father-in-law's scenery.
In terms of the qualifications for contacts with the mainland, Gao Xian is not as deep as Huo Yingdong, but Gao Xian is not strong and famous. In particular, he has acquired Xiangjiang land with great momentum this year, and the mainland knows him very well.
