Global Monopoly of Technology

The latest website: "Mr. Luo, what you are doing is so inauthentic. Young people are immoral and disregard the interests of all mankind for their own selfish interests. You knew about the super solar storm tomorrow, but you didn't stand up to warn the world in time. Instead, for personal gain.”

In the conference hall, the negotiators from both sides were sitting clearly. John, the co-CEO of the North American Semiconductor Industry Association who was present at the meeting, came up and started to question Luo Sheng. John then added in a sarcastic tone: "...this is the What do you mean by looking at the whole world and serving all mankind?"

Luo Sheng, who was sitting opposite, replied calmly: "I also have a problem with Mr. John. If I don't make some money, how can I fill the capital hole left by the Tianti project after the investor's withdrawal?"

It's good not to say this, but speaking at this time made the group of foreigners at the meeting even more angry, and it was unusually harsh in their ears. Here, a foreigner whispered to the person next to him: "That bastard did it on purpose. Let's mess with our mentality..."

Hearing Luo Sheng's words in their ears, he was undoubtedly mocking Chi Guoguo, and he even slapped him too much. Those investors who quit in the middle, especially Wall Street capital, are now almost the butt of jokes. Luo Sheng's record has How brilliant they are, how shameful they are.

At this moment, Luo Sheng saw that the other party was angry and did not answer immediately, and continued calmly: "Take a step back, there is no law that requires me to stand up and warn the world, maybe you will think that I am spreading the word. As for the rumours, that's not the focus of today's negotiations."

John answered in a cold tone: "Then let's talk about the main point. Our request is very simple. You must transfer the remaining chip order, or cancel the order."

The current situation is that Europe and the United States have fallen into a great passive position. Luo Sheng smashed the order contract of 2 trillion US dollars two years ago, and frantically placed orders and swept away goods from major semiconductor manufacturers around the world.

At that time, all the semiconductor manufacturers were mad with joy, and after four years of full orders, it was necessary to expand the production capacity by 30% before it was possible to complete the delivery according to the contract.

It also directly stimulated the global semiconductor industry to go out of the super bull market in the past two years, and the listed semiconductor companies all over the world are skyrocketing.

What was the concept of placing a $2 trillion order almost in one go at that time? Calculated in terms of the purchasing power of the US dollar currency at that time, the current market size of the global chip industry is less than 500 billion US dollars.

In other words, Luo Sheng's layout two years ago had arranged the order to be just four years before the solar storm, during which all the remaining production capacity in the world must be given priority to supply to him.

So here comes the question,

During this period, the chips produced by the chip manufacturers have to be delivered to Luo Sheng. If European and American countries want to stock up on chips in the last year or so, it means that there is no time window.

The latest batch was delivered a year and a half later, when the solar storm hit and a hammer was produced. At that time, it was not a matter of output, but of reconstruction.

For Europeans and Americans, the problem is here, and the passive is also here. The effective time window is completely occupied by Luo Sheng.

Additional expansion of the production line? The big deal is to avoid Luo Sheng's list?

This seems to be an effective solution, but in fact it is impossible. How could Luo Sheng leave such a big loophole for them to exploit?

Chip technology is characterized by rapid iteration, with a generation difference of one and a half years, and the current chip technology is close to the physical limit. In order to supply Luo Sheng's orders, major semiconductor manufacturers around the world have expanded their production lines.

The problem is that these semiconductor manufacturers will never agree to expand production capacity, and they will never do so.

If they do this, they will face unpredictable risks. Expanding production capacity is a loss-making behavior. When the solar storm blows over, they will all be scrapped, and the cost will definitely not be recovered. It is blood loss, and the risk of the company going bankrupt is great.

Do European and American authorities subsidize these semiconductor companies? Excuse me! No money!

The old beauty has no money to spend, and the issuance of bonds is not worth it now. Without taking over, she was severely cut by Luo Sheng's sickle, not to mention the beaten continent.

It seems that these semiconductor companies can default, but these semiconductor manufacturers do not have this obligation in the first place. Even if they are conscious of defaulting, it means paying a huge amount of liquidated damages to Luo Sheng, not only the expected profit is gone, but also a loss. money.

Will the shareholders of these semiconductor companies agree?

However, the expectation that the solar storm will inevitably cause huge losses has not disappeared. This time and again, the company will cause the risk of capital chain breakage, which will trigger a chain reaction, and the storm may blow at any time. It may go bankrupt.

This is also unbearable for major semiconductor manufacturers, so they can only be forced to form a group to negotiate with Luo Sheng.

When John made the request, Luo Sheng spread his hands and said very cheerfully: "No problem, the transfer order will be settled at double the price. If you cancel the order, you can do things according to the contract."

"What did you say? Double?" A member of the European negotiating team on John's side said angrily: "You are taking advantage of the fire. Mr. Luo, I advise you to do it yourself and not go too far."

Luo Sheng, as always, was calm and calm, and said, "In business, I just quoted a reasonable price, and the goods in my hand are in line with the premium expected by the solar storm."

At the same time, I replied in my heart: You are right, that is to take advantage of the fire.

At this time, the head of the business negotiation team on the North American side said with a cold face: "I need to remind you Mr. Luo, we are negotiating with you with sincerity, please show some sincerity, I have to tell you, According to federal law, the chip supplies you have stockpiled in North America have the right to be requisitioned by the federal government under special circumstances.”

"So is the alliance!"

The little book and the stick did not speak.

Obviously, the words spoken by Europeans and Americans are full of threats. If you can't do it, you can directly requisition. Your goods are not offshore in China anyway, and they are all sealed in Europe and North America.

If it's a big deal, it will tear up the face. If it sounds good, it is emergency requisition. If it sounds bad, it is directly robbing.

The negotiating team on the European and American side thought that this would frighten Luo Sheng and force him to compromise. After all, he spent real money to break in, and it was an astronomical sum. An empty, but not worth the loss.

Luo Sheng looked down at the manuscript on the table in front of him and smiled silently. John and the others across the negotiating table looked at each other, not knowing what medicine he was selling in the gourd.

At the end, Luo Sheng looked up at the opposite side, still speaking in a calm and unwavering tone: "I also have something to tell you, according to our country's "Constitution", in necessary special circumstances, in order to maintain the security and stability of the country, It has the right to make emergency expropriation of all resources onshore, and even nationalize it if necessary."

As soon as these words came out, John and the others across the negotiating table seemed expressionless, because Luo Sheng spoke Chinese in Chinese, even though he could speak English.

After their interpreter finished translating Luo Sheng's words intact, John and the others suddenly changed their faces.

"you--!"

At this moment, Luo Sheng lowered his head and took a sip of hot tea, then looked up and smiled, "I'm fine."

The people across the negotiating table seemed to be so angry that they shut themselves out.

The people on Luo Sheng's side showed contemptuous sneers, and thought the people on the other side were funny. If the big boss can be scared by this, can he cut off your 10 trillion yuan? Still have today's achievements?

hurt each other?

Come on, let's see who loses the most. There is still about 15% of the Shengfeng Capital ladder project. If you dare to engage in so-called "emergency requisition", you dare to take back the remaining 15%. State-owned, this asset alone is already an unbearable loss.

What's more, the investment of European and American capital in Greater China has increased significantly in recent years, and the Old Midea Pension Fund has made a lot of investment here. But still not a small sum.

If you dare to break the most basic rules of the game, don’t even think about going offshore for a penny of these assets.

The result is not difficult to predict. It may evolve into building barriers to each other, stop trade exchanges, and if it continues to deteriorate, it may get out of control and even lead to a hot war.

At this time, the person in charge of the negotiation team on the Japanese side saw that the two sides were deadlocked and could not come to the stage, so he decisively stepped forward and spoke to the muddy character: "I propose to adjourn the meeting for an hour, and then discuss it in an hour!"
