Chapter 1463 (2/2)

”Bypass Qualcomm's board directly?” Andy frowns and mumbles. To be honest, he is worried about a possible capital war in the future.

But it's not the idea of privatization. As long as he can control six to seven seats on Qualcomm's board of directors, his first acquisition plan will be basically completed.

”At present, how many of the largest holders of Qualcomm stock are likely to accept our offer?”

”Boss, we don't need to focus on the top ten institutions, whether Blackstone, pioneer group, Fidelity International Investment Fund, State Street and Wellington management group. We just need to get their support. What we have to do is to impress those small and medium-sized institutions with the quotation.

We can take the lead to promise that the current senior management of Qualcomm will be like a stay in office. After all, our purpose is not to make Qualcomm into turmoil. You just want Qualcomm's authority and shares, don't you? ”

According to bardstone's timely analysis, the more in-depth understanding of Qualcomm, the more optimistic bardstone is about the future of the company.

Since its establishment in 1985, Qualcomm has been mainly engaged in the application services of mobile communication technology in the transportation industry. In 1989, Qualcomm first launched a mobile communication solution based on CDMA technology, and has since become the standard setter of this emerging communication industry.

In the evolution and development process from 2G to 3G technology, Qualcomm has accumulated more than 4000 CDMA patent technologies, always leading the technological development pace of the mobile industry.

With the advent of the era of smart phones, Qualcomm's mobile microprocessors are the first to support Android operating systems. It can be imagined that with the widespread popularity of free Android systems, Qualcomm will definitely become the leader of the mobile chip industry.

Bardstone knew that the acquisition would eventually become a capital war for several months, which would be an unimaginable game for the cash consumption in the hands of the boss. However, at this time, at the most serious node of the financial storm, it is the best way to make a commitment to cash transactions that can hit these institutional investors. Seeing the deep lock brow of the big boss, he said again Avenue.”Qualcomm's success is very similar to Intel's. In a high-tech field, through high investment in R & D, far ahead of the technical level, a wide range of patent barriers, almost all competitors can be blocked to survive. No one can threaten Qualcomm's position in the future unless there is a major change in the industry.

With the increasing popularity of IT technology, many traditional industries have undergone profound changes. Whoever can adapt to the times and introduce IT technology into the traditional industries at the earliest will gain the ability to subvert the giants. ”

”Paul Jacobs, the current CEO, is the son of Owen Jacobs, the company's founder. It may be a difficult link to break.” Andy looked down at Qualcomm's acquisition plan, fingered the desktop, and frowned.

”Boss, this should not be a big problem. Qualcomm's shareholders are the real leaders. After Paul Jacobs took over the post of Qualcomm's CEO from his father Owen in 2005, he has experienced patent wars with Nokia and conflicts with regulatory authorities. Although these disputes were finally resolved, Nokia's counterclaim has attracted many shares Dong denounced his ability. Now, Qualcomm's stock price has dropped to around $28, nearly halved from the highest $56, and shareholders' trust in him has been basically exhausted.

Jacobs owns about 0.13% of Qualcomm's shares, including publicly held, restricted shares and options. Some restricted shares will be attributed based on Qualcomm's performance over the next few years.

Although it's the founder family, they hold too few shares. I don't believe that emotional relationships can counter the prevailing economic considerations, especially the large shareholders, including Blackstone and vanguard, who, ha ha... ”

Alvette is ironic. Andy and bud know that these private fund institutions are the real interests first, and Nai is the typical representative of mother.

”I remember that in July, Blackstone, together with NBC global, acquired the weather channel of landmark Communications Co., Ltd...” Although it's a tone of doubt, Andy, who has the skill of never forgetting, naturally remembers it very clearly. ”It seems that I should contact with him personally. There is no regulatory problem in our acquisition, which is undoubtedly the biggest advantage. Don't worry about the obstruction of the regulatory authorities.”

Mr. bardstone and Mr. alvert agreed with each other. If a foreign company acquires a high-tech company like Qualcomm, it will undoubtedly face a headache of strict review and regulatory procedures. Even if all aspects are agreed, if one of them threatens the national security of the United States, it can directly terminate the transaction, which will really cause heavy losses 。

”After Christmas, I will send these friends tickets to the rockets and the Lakers for the Christmas War. I will hold a Christmas party in Houston. First, I will contact them in advance to explore their attitude.” Andy ponders and makes a decision.

Qualcomm, he is bound to gain, which is related to the power of the future mobile Internet era, but also the most important part of making money for a better future. He will never give up the opportunity of annexation when Qualcomm is at its lowest point!
