Global Monopoly of Technology

The interview was over, and the next day, "Economic Weekly" released the content of the exclusive interview. The domestic media quickly quoted the report, which caused a huge response from the outside world. The keyword "Interview with Luo Sheng" also became a popular keyword of the day.

Faced with the difficult situation in North America nowadays, the domestic public are also very concerned about the latest developments of Luo Sheng and his company.

Friends and businessmen lost their voices collectively at this time, and even the executives of friends and businessmen had less interaction online.

But good melon netizens are all turning into rhythm dogs at this time, and they all help @Friendshang come out and say something. It's really a big deal to watch the fun.

"We just know: Cote d'Azur and Bluestar Technology are so great."

"Monopoly business will always be targeted by others."

"I hope to protect the blue coast and Bluestar Technology with practical actions. If these two companies fall, it will not only be one or two companies that will fall..."

"I really admire Luo Sheng's pattern for this."

"666, we don't want to make more money, we really don't want to make more money, we have no interest in money, we just want other manufacturers to survive."

"I won't do it even if I ask you to earn money. If I do it, I feel that Boss Ma and Boss Luo's businesses will go bankrupt.

"He just wants to maintain the high profits of his business, don't overestimate his moral level, don't forget his worth."

"I found that many fools can't understand words."

"Haha, the moral level should still be higher than the trolls and keyboard warriors, because they are always standing on the moral high ground to troll people."

"Actually, the old United States is not much better. According to media reports, the revenue of the top semiconductor companies in North America will drop significantly. If this situation continues, the number of layoffs in the semiconductor industry in the United States will reach 40,000. This is only for the Cote d'Azur, If Bluestar Technology is included, the number of unemployed will increase by more than 100,000."

"It's no wonder that the North American business community, especially the technology giants in California, is so fierce. It seems that Apple's iPhone uses the WOS operating system. If the Cote d'Azur is no longer authorized, the iPhone will be GG."

"Although Mr. Luo only owns 30% of the shares in Cote d'Azur and less than 25% in Bluestar Technology, he has a special right in such a large enterprise group, one-vote veto power, you can hardly see this. A supergiant company of any size has this privilege. What is a one-vote vote? Everyone on the board raised their hands and passed me and I said no or no, but everyone was willing to give him the veto power.”

"There are still people who don't want to, like Wall Street."

...

Cote d'Azur headquarters, CEO's office.

"Accelerate the upgrade of the domestic supply chain system as soon as possible, and the de-North Americanization of key technology nodes will be further accelerated, including the supply chain links that North America thinks should have alternative domestic solutions as soon as possible." Luo Sheng faced the man standing in front of him. Yao Jianhong ordered.

Although Luo Sheng's performance in the public interview was calm, he must pay attention to the enemy tactically, and the technological war has already started.

Yao Jianhong said: "The day before yesterday, I personally went to the headquarters of Jingdongfang for research. In the past five years, the company has been under pressure from price cuts by international giants and the impact of the international financial crisis. .but,

Jingdongfang, which is still losing money, has unexpectedly developed against the trend and launched the 4.5th generation line, the 6th generation line and the 8.5th generation line in succession, setting off a 'liquid crystal storm'. "

"This has brought a lot of pressure to major international TFT companies such as Samsung, LG, Sharp, etc. At present, Jingdongfang has started a road of rapid development. This time, we have reached a cooperation agreement, and Côte d'Azur will take a 30% stake in Jingdongfang. Equity, financing 22 billion yuan, and financing at a premium in order to further accelerate Jingdongfang's upgrading of screen technology."

Luo Sheng nodded. He fully recognized the investment layout. Currently, the only domestic supplier in the screen field is Jingdongfang. However, the performance of the company itself is not good, and it has been criticized by shareholders. With the more than 20 billion yuan invested in the Cote d'Azur, it will inevitably accelerate the development of the company's screen technology.

However, this cooperation was signed with a non-disclosure agreement, and it was not disclosed to the outside world. The outside world only knew that Jingdong had obtained a large-scale capital financing. Many people thought that the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Office was supporting the enterprise.

Of course the state wants to support it, but how can there be so much money?

The reason for the secrecy is mainly because at this time, I don't want to stir Samsung Electronics' nerves too much. Although Samsung Electronics has its own technology that Samsung Electronics can't avoid, it is better to have more things than less things.

The "spare tire" plan over the years, under the strong capital output of Shengfeng Capital, the layout of the entire domestic semiconductor industry chain is also stable and progressing. Among them, the EDA software company "Jingchuang Technology" is quite eye-catching. A start-up company, and now Shengfeng Capital has completed its D round of financing, and has invested more than 500 million US dollars in it.

But the speed of progress is also gratifying, and the results are even better than Huada Jiutian, and the latter's financing scale from Shengfeng Capital is three times that of Jingchuang Technology.

In the field of precision manufacturing, it is mainly suppliers of various components of lithography machine equipment. Major related companies have not only obtained the investment of Shengfeng Capital, but also obtained the technology of Luo Sheng. technology for complete replication.

It is not far from the real start of manufacturing the first prototype, including the wafer purification technology and other links, including the continuous development of Xiongxin Electronics in wafer foundry.

This series of "spare tire" plans is the reason why Luo Sheng dared to be calm in public interviews.

Just then, Luo Sheng's phone rang.

"That's it for now." Luo Sheng took out his phone, Yao Jianhong nodded and left the office.

Luo Sheng looked at the phone screen, and the caller ID was Zhang Bowen from Bluestar Technology.

"Mr. Luo, this time is really in trouble. The company's North American office sent back news that North America will officially announce the revocation and termination of the international Internet services provided by Bluestar Technology North America in the United States the next day. Simply put, this time They're going to force us out of the North American market, including the Côte d'Azur."

Luo Sheng's eyelids twitched slightly, and he said solemnly, "Is the news reliable?"

Zhang Bowen: "Reliable!"

Luo Sheng replied calmly, "Understood, since you don't stay here, let's withdraw, and withdraw more decisively. Isn't it because there are 300 million fewer users, and there are less than 300 million Internet users in the United States."

On the other end of the phone, Lao Zhang couldn't help but sighed, while listening to Luo Sheng's instructions.

"We can take all the assets we can take away after liquidation in North America, and directly destroy what we can't take away, including smashing all the data in major data centers, renting a few freighters to take away all the hardware facilities that can be taken away, as long as it is Don’t leave a single screw of our assets behind, and those who are not allowed to take away, for example, for information security reasons, will be physically scrapped in front of them and thrown into the Pacific Ocean.”

Zhang Bowen was dumbfounded when he heard this, and said in a daze: "Mr. Luo, are you really not crazy? If you do this, our layout in North America in the past 10 years will all be in vain. The profits earned are equivalent to all zeros, and tens of billions of dollars have to be paid back."

If nothing else, renting a few boats, tearing down data centers, and physically scrapping so many heavy assets requires a lot of money.

It's not crazy what is it? Although it is not a good choice to sell, at least Bluestar Technology's layout in North America in the past ten years will not be empty.

Luo Sheng said calmly: "I'm not crazy, just do it. Tomorrow the other party is going to announce that you will hold a media conference, release my decision, and see how Lao Mei reacts. If the other party still insists on being tough... Then execute it immediately, huh, the whole family of Bluestar Technology will withdraw from the site collectively, all the data centers will be destroyed, the data and information accumulated over the past ten years will disappear, and the Internet infrastructure in North America will go back ten years, at least five years. Give them a chance to rebuild."

Luo Sheng has never lacked this kind of courage.

What's more, the total number of Internet users in the United States is less than 300 million. Without Bluestar Technology, even if there is a window period in this market, it is difficult for North America to develop its own Internet company to play Bluestar Technology internationally. .

What's more, Luo Sheng's seemingly crazy move, in fact, he has already laid out the dark chess of today's headlines, quietly entered the village, and don't want to shoot. In the 4G era, Tik-Tok, the international version of Douyin, has occupied the North American market.

In a sense, it's like changing a vest.

Three or five years later, when Lao Mei realized that Luo Sheng was trapped again, her mentality was about to explode.

It's just that these outsiders don't know, only Qin Weimu knows, Lao Zhang doesn't know, so Luo Sheng's operation is so arrogant that Lao Zhang doesn't know what to say.

There is no entrepreneur in the world so rigid. This is equivalent to a complete tearing of his face, and he will no longer have any nostalgia for returning to the North American market.

"Understood, I'm going to prepare for the press conference. I'll wait for the announcement tomorrow." Zhang Bowen ended the call and shook his head with a wry smile. Now that Luo Sheng has made a decision, no one in the entire company can stop it. Getting him is not only for authoritative reasons, but even through the program Luo Sheng has absolute control over Bluestar Technology.

Zhang Bowen still hopes that North America will admit to cowardice. There may be room for manoeuvre in that matter. Luo Sheng heard it here, and he will definitely not be cowardly this time.

It's just that they really hurt each other so much. The Internet in North America has been set back for five years, and it is also very hurtful to the Bluestar Technology Group.

Just a few minutes after Lao Zhang ended the call, Yao Jianhong, who had just left the office for a few minutes, hurriedly knocked on the door again.

Luo Sheng knew what happened by seeing his expression: "You don't need to say it, I already know."

Yao Jianhong was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses and immediately said, "Then how should we deal with it?"
