Global Monopoly of Technology

Samuel Palmisano, the head of IBM at the time, was not idle. After the incident, he began to run, and made several trips to Wall Street. Frank Vann met.

It is worth mentioning that the core layer of Goldman Sachs has entered a major adjustment since the first half of this year. The former head Henry Paulson has stepped down. traditional arts.

The Goldman Sachs board of directors has decided to appoint Gary Cohn and Jon Winkreed as the next group president and co-chief operating officer, and at the same time absorb them as board members, join the group executive office, and directly appoint the chairman and chief executive officer of Goldman Sachs Group. Chief executive Lloyd Blankfein reports.

These people are all great people in North America, and there are too many "Goldman Sachs" figures in the North American authorities. Luo Sheng's embrace of Wall Street is undoubtedly a very correct choice.

These talented people are the real local snakes.

Goldman Sachs has no doubt supported Samuel Palmisano this time. IBM and Bluestar have Goldman Sachs' interests in them, and it's not a small number.

Lloyd Blankfein gave Samuel Palmisano a personal contact.

This man's name is Obilu.

This is a loyal speculator, born in Florida, who used to be a lawyer for former Goldman Sachs CEO Weinberg, and his wife is currently working in a Goldman Sachs foundation, relying on the late Weinberg six years ago. Grid's sponsorship took part in state legislature elections, both as a congressman and as a visiting professor at the University of Florida.

Weinberg donated money to the school, and the school offered Obilu a high salary in return, all legal.

But this kind of money can never be free.

Obilu is a very straightforward speculator who plays py trading. To put it simply, you give me money and I will help you make more money. It belongs to the kind of key that will not disobey him even if he is accused by thousands of people. supporters of people.

When Samuel Palmisano left Wall Street, he followed the contact information to find Obilu. The tens of billions of dollars in business cooperation involved the vital interests of multiple employers, and it was enough to drive a large group of people behind them to keep running. , is active.

The strongest fortress must be breached from the inside, and it can also achieve the effect of four or two thousand pounds.

Luo Sheng just did one thing, to divide the interests here with Wall Street,

Nothing left to do.

If even Wall Street can't settle it, Luo Sheng, as an outsider, can't settle it, so he has to cancel the plan to build the four major data centers in North America, and cloud computing services can only withdraw from the North American market.

Of course, Bluestar Technology will reap the huge liquidated damages paid by IBM for this, and at the same time IBM will lose this order and hand it over to its competitors.

However, Luo Sheng is very optimistic about Wall Street.

And IBM can't admit it. Samuel Palmisano has been running very diligently these days. In order to promote this international business cooperation, IBM did not hesitate to threaten the North American authorities. Move out of North America.

This is a tried-and-true trick by major technology giants in North America. Enterprises move their factories out, resulting in the hollowing out of the local manufacturing industry, and local people have to face unemployment crisis. In fact, a large number of North American multinational companies have moved their factories to emerging markets in order to save labor costs. market country.

For example, Guancheng in Huaguo is a good choice.

The labor cost in North America is really high. At present, General Motors is the most typical example. It is still struggling to support it, but its core management has already felt the imminent crisis. Maybe it will face the crisis of bankruptcy and reorganization next year.

This matter can be big or small, but Luo Sheng is not worried about it. He believes that Wall Street has the energy and relationship to settle these matters because it is in the United States.

...

Another person came to the headquarters of Bluestar Technology when Laomei tried to stop the Bluestar Technology Group's business expansion in the North American market.

On the afternoon of May 19, in a reception room of the company, Luo Sheng sat down opposite the visiting guests and said with a smile, "I was wondering what kind of wind brought you here."

The visiting guest is Xu Zhijun, the head of Lens Semiconductor and one of the core managers of Huawei.

"The recent actions of the Bluestar Group are getting bigger and bigger. Regarding the cloud computing concept you proposed, Hua Wei is currently doing research on a topic internally, and I think it is necessary to take part in this matter." Xu Zhijun said with a smile, he didn't either. After beating around the bush, he opened the chat box and bluntly stated the purpose of this visit, and immediately added: "To be honest, I came here not because of Lens Semiconductor, but for Hua Wei to run business."

"Running business? Come to me?" Luo Sheng looked at the other party with interest.

Xu Zhijun said with a laugh, "You signed a server order with IBM of more than 24 billion yuan, which is equivalent to about 36% of Huawei's total sales last year. Do you think that Huawei can sit still?"

Hearing this, Luo Sheng seemed to understand his intentions. Hua Wei had already started actively preparing to enter the server market three years ago. This is a marginal industry developed by Hua Wei in addition to the core business.

Once a company becomes bigger, it will insist on consolidating its core business, and at the same time, it will inevitably expand to marginal businesses, thereby diversifying its development.

"Frankly speaking, Mr. Xu, I'm just starting to build three data centers in China, and it may be more than tenfold in the future. For new contracts in the future, for the data centers built in the mainland, I can give Huawei's servers some orders, and even I hope I can give you the list of all the data centers in the mainland, but you have to develop the technology, I heard that you are cooperating with Intel?"

Hearing Luo Sheng's words, Xu Zhijun was stunned for a while, then his spirit was lifted, and he subconsciously said, "Really?"

Luo Sheng instead sighed: "Old America has already begun to make things difficult for the company to build a data center in North America, making various excuses to prevent my expansion in the North American market. The same reason, in case American semiconductor companies do not If you supply me, it is not just a problem in the North American market. If Huawei can do it in the server area, I will not have to worry about the potential hidden dangers at this level in the future.”

That being said, Luo Sheng firmly believes that once Laomei finds that North American companies can't beat them through normal competition, they will definitely use unconventional economic means to suppress them, including not limited to technical blockades, market blockades and other means.

Xu Zhijun couldn't help sighing when he heard it: "I thought that the dazzling achievements that Bluestar Technology Group has achieved today, Mr. Luo must be the most proud of it, but I didn't expect the sense of crisis to be so serious."

Luo Sheng smiled and said, "It's necessary to be proud, but it shouldn't be carried away."

Xu Zhijun laughed a few times and said, "This has given Hua Wei a major opportunity in the server market. Being able to get your order, we are more confident to make a name for ourselves in this market."

When he came to see Luo Sheng this time, Xu Zhijun felt that the chance of persuading the other party should not be a problem. After all, this is also a technology from Lens Semiconductor, and Luo Sheng's Azure Coast company holds 34% of the shares of Lens Semiconductor.

As a new entrant in this field, especially in the initial stage, the most feared thing is to invest a lot in the early stage, but it will not be favored by customers later, and it will not be able to recover the cost if it cannot get the order, thus forming a disgusting cycle. lead to final failure.

And the support of Bluestar Technology, which is definitely a major customer, means that the cost can be recovered and the money earned can be reinvested in research and development, thus forming a favorable two-way positive cycle.

Under normal circumstances, customers will never look for such new players in the industry as Wahwei, but to look for industry giants such as Dell, Intel or IBM. The reason is also very simple, affordable and guaranteed.

Only Luo Sheng can do this, dare to hand over orders to newbies and support the development of enterprises in the mainland.

There are not many entrepreneurs who can be admired by Xu Zhijun, but Luo Sheng is definitely one of them.

A consensus was reached on this matter today, and Luo Sheng decided on the spot to give Huawei a contract worth 1.5 billion to build a data center with 120,000 sets of servers under the server brand of Huawei in the future.

Hua Wei's products have not been seen, and he was the first to win a large contract. This was undoubtedly a dose of stimulant for Hua Wei's server business department. Not verbally.

But in general, Hua Wei's ability to do well in the server market is beneficial to both Bluestar Technology Group and Cote d'Azur.

For Bluestar Technology Group, it is to improve its own fighting ability to increase the opponent's cost of fighting and thus reduce the enemy's willingness to strike. For Bluestar, it can share 34% of the profits, which is real. of.

Luo Sheng wouldn't make a server by himself, even if he was a traveler.

Doing everything is equivalent to offending everyone. Spreading too large a plate will also bring more enemies. The key is that it may not be able to bring the greatest profit from a commercial point of view, and may face a collapse. Dangerous, Luo Sheng doesn't want to follow in the footsteps of Boss Jia in the previous life, although he admires Boss Jia's ability to fool.

The correct approach should be to have many friends and few enemies.

In fact, most of the successful technology giant groups are not kaleidoscope-shaped. They seem to be involved in everything. In fact, they are marginal businesses, and they are more of a pit.

At a critical moment or when necessary, these edge services can be cut off at any time without having too much impact on themselves.

Luo Sheng firmly believes that the correct approach for a technology company is to focus on a few core businesses, mainly those with high added value, and then incorporate marginal businesses into continuous trial and error. Once it is determined that it will not become a core business, it will be spun off.

Giants such as TI, IBM, and Intel all do this.

They hold the core links of the industrial chain, those high value-added businesses in their hands, and then support the entire industrial chain, allowing more companies to participate, expanding the market, and giving away marginal businesses in exchange for regional market access licenses and many more.

The business of Bluestar Technology Group seems to be a lot now. At first glance, it already has ten wholly-owned subsidiaries, and now it has a cloud computing service sector. Luo Sheng has also invested in edge businesses such as the game industry.

However, after careful calculation, whether it is blue space, online video business, or game business, these all focus on one core point, that is, the ecological chain built based on the data core.

Therefore, the cloud computing service of Bluestar Technology Group did not establish a subsidiary to separate the business, but was directly operated by the parent company.

In the final analysis, big data is the lifeblood of Bluestar Technology. As long as the data is in hand, it is equivalent to having the ability to regenerate a broken arm, and its recovery ability is unparalleled.

Even if other business segments of Bluestar Technology Group are severely damaged or even enter a crisis of survival, as long as the data core is not threatened, they will soon be reborn.

But this is not enough, Bluestar Technology still has flaws, and this flaw will be solved perfectly with the Cote d'Azur.

Luo Sheng's ownership of these two companies means that it can create a closed loop of a perfect ecosystem from software to consumer electronics.

And as time is approaching day by day, the day when the Cote d'Azur will make a big splash is getting closer and closer, and it has entered the countdown of the last three months.
