Chapter 971 (2/2)
This is a problem.
On the one hand, they are partners who have cooperated for many years, on the other hand, they are the rising and ambitious ERV, and arm's shares are mainly not in their hands, most of them are still in the founders' hands.
Even if they help.
You can't force an old friend to sell the company.
Others have different thoughts.
Intel's representatives are happy.
They have been competing for the market with arm, but in the field of mobile devices, they are almost beaten by arm. Now, ERV has set foot in arm. It's so nice to see if you are satisfied.
As for ERV, will arm be on the next floor.
Intel doesn't care.
The positioning of x86 architecture and arm architecture is different. It is impossible for both sides to break through this ”gap” by relying on existing architecture technology. Otherwise, there will be no current pattern.
”Chairman, it's very difficult for us. After all, we are only small shareholders of arm. It's impossible to force others to sell the company. Please understand.” Apple's directors took the lead.
Arm was founded at the beginning.
Apple owned 39% of its shares, and later sold most of them. Now it is only a small shareholder, but as one of the founders, it has a good relationship with arm.
Apple directors believe.
The chairman of the board is going to give them a head start, of course, and say something.
”yes, this company has the final say.” Samsung director said.
”Chairman, I think the success rate of arm acquisition is very low, and it is likely to spend all the cash raised by ERV, which is not conducive to other projects.” Continued the director of Sequoia Capital.
“。。。”
The directors are failing.
However.
The soldiers were unmoved.
”Please rest assured that you don't need to come out, as long as you don't object to it on the board of directors, it will help us. If the acquisition fails, it will be a big deal to start the standby scheme and follow the path of self-developed chip architecture.”
When they heard that they didn't need advice, the directors felt that the soldiers were overconfident. Did they despise them? Sometimes people are so strange that they are afraid of being used or being considered useless.
”This meeting is here. Please also pay attention to the regulations of the board of directors. Our vice chairman will fly to arm's headquarters in the afternoon to formally propose the acquisition. Do you have anything else to do? ”
That's it.
The warrior passed the resolution of the board of directors.
This is the advantage of absolute holding. At the critical moment, you can act on your own.
The directors looked at each other, and all of them were like this. What they had to say was that they would not listen to the advice anyway. Then the chairman of the board of directors was allowed to toss, and even if he failed, there would be no loss.
If it works.
It's not enough to burn up the financing.
There's sustained profit from war.
Or loan from the bank.
How to get ERV.
。。。
The next day.
ERV officially announced the acquisition of arm, and the media was furious. As soon as the financing was completed, they began to spend money. The reporters were glad to buy arm, and there was something to write about.
Most don't think it's reliable.
Or for the hype before ERV went public, so ERV took over the headlines for two days.
But.
Two days later.
That is September 23.
In an incredible look.
The founder of arm held the board of directors.
Agree to sell 41% of arm's shares, do not accept cash, and hold 3% of ERV's shares, which are issued by the chairman of ERV.
It's like getting a penny for nothing.
But it's not over.
There is no absolute holding.
Over the next week, ERV bought 5% of its shares at a premium from several companies, including Tang Qing's shares in the stock market and those sold by cousin EIman.
Tang Qing has achieved absolute control over arm.
And this kind of operation is endless.
It blinds too many people.
