I’m Almost Losing to a Muggle

Lin Dong, the boss, was taken aback by these showy operations.

If he hadn't known the personalities and work styles of Pei Qianlong, Liu Xia and others, he would have almost believed in this drama.

What a trend.

The executives were fighting among themselves, he didn't dare to have such a dream, he was afraid that Le would wake him up by making pig noises.

But where did Liu Xia have the guts to choke on Eunuch Pei.

This is absolutely impossible.

Also sent to Moments...

Even editing these words, he can scare himself to death.

Most importantly, Lin Dong knew Pei Qianlong's plan.

He wants to acquire ARM in an upright manner. The resistance is not in the price, nor in Softbank and ARM itself, but in the conquest of various pots led by Xiaoguo.

Other pots and pans can be attacked, but as long as Xiao Guozi disagrees, nothing will be mentioned.

Therefore, the biggest difficulty lies in Xiaoguozi.

However, Xiaoguozi strategy is too troublesome, and the price/performance ratio is too low.

Therefore, Pei Qianlong's plan has become to let Xiaoguo take the initiative to allow Maochang to acquire ARM.

It is undoubtedly a good breakthrough to let Maochang distract its attention and not put all its energy on the lithography machine.

Xiao Guozi is not stupid.

Therefore, this game must be very realistic.

No, it can also be said that this game is true.

Even Lin Dong felt that the concerns of netizens were correct. If the cat factory's energy was too scattered, it would undoubtedly do nothing.

Research is not the Internet.

The internet is all about money.

Oh yes, plus no Bilian.

Scientific research requires a huge amount of money, time, and energy, and it is absolutely impossible to make any achievements.

The current scientific research direction of Maochang itself is already complicated enough.

Chips, systems, artificial intelligence, new energy, unmanned chickens, materials...

Any section can require tens of billions of financial resources to make things, and Maochang can do everything.

Now I still want to buy ARM as a processor.

If the acquisition of intel is said, even if Xiao Guozi thinks with his toenails, he will oppose it to the end.

In 2015, ARM's revenue reached $1.489 billion, while Intel's was $51.69 billion.

ARM mainly lays out mobile processors.

Its server performance is clearly not as good as the Intel Xeon.

Moreover, Intel develops, manufactures and sells chips, and ARM only licenses the technology to other semiconductor manufacturers and collects a small amount of licensing fees.

ARM will, and Intel will basically.

Intel can do it, but ARM can't do it, at least some of them will fail.

Of course, it does lead Intel and MIPS in mobile processors.

But to maintain its advantage, it must spend huge human and financial resources on research and development, and this investment is no less than that of lithography machines and fabs.

Moreover, the rate of return is not high.

Once the cat factory has acquired ARM, it is even better for Xiaoguo to go to the neck of the cat factory.

After all, ARM's negligible income is all based on licensing. Once semiconductor companies around the world reject ARM's processor architecture, it will really be cool.

It will inevitably become a gold-swallowing behemoth that can only enter and not exit.

Softbank has strong financial resources and still has no plans to hold ARM for a long time.

It was originally intended to be sold to Intel, but semiconductor companies around the world disagree.

The result of the dominance of one family is that everyone will have to look at Intel's face for food in the future.

Then, finding other buyers for ARM has become a headache for Softbank.

In June 2010, Apple expressed its intention to acquire ARM for $8 billion, but was rejected. ARM CEO said that ARM is more valuable as an independent company.

The slap came very fast.

SoftBank Group spent $32 billion to acquire ARM in 2016.

However, after Softbank acquired ARM, the situation is not optimistic. Because even if ARM is included, the vision of its Internet of Things empire has not been greatly improved.

What a waste of money!

The sale of ARM is a last resort for Softbank in the face of sluggish performance, and it can be seen as a helpless move in a cash flow dilemma.

Because of this, neither Samsung nor Apple wants to pay too much premium.

40 billion US dollars, this is Intel's offer.

There are many obstacles to selling to Intel, and the 40 billion US dollars is not a cash payment-how can Intel get so much cash.

Even if there is, take it out today, and Intel will have to break the funds tomorrow.

Anyway, it's all kinds of tossing.

Who knows how much money is left over.

Apple and Samsung are not willing to bid more than 30 billion US dollars.

I bought it for 32 billion, so why sell it to you for 300.

Now, the cat factory that can make lithography machines has become a new choice.

However, this thing is not easy to sell.

If you sell it to Xiaoguozi, Huaxia will object; if you sell it to Huaxia, Xiaoguozi will go crazy.

Softbank is now regretful.

Fortunately, Sun Zhengyi of Softbank finally saw a ray of light from the excitement in Huaxia.

His friends at Xiaoguozi said that their attitude towards the farce on Huaxia's side has quietly changed.

It's just that there is more hope that Softbank will split ARM up for sale.

Sell ​​the core, or key things, to the small fruit company, and throw the mess that has stripped the core technology to the cat factory.

It's as if your cat keeps coming over to bother you while you're playing games.

You throw a toy at it.

Let it not bother you.

Sun Zhengyi almost laughed angrily.

Are these people mentally ill? If the cat factory is stupid, it wouldn't make you deal with it so hard.

Responses vary from side to side.

But generally no one doubts that the internal strife in the cat factory is a self-written and self-directed drama.

Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes.

It is only natural that there are disputes in the cat factory.

As for the strategy of the cat factory, even a blind person can see that there is a problem.

Dad doesn't want the progress of the research and development of the lithography machine to be dragged down by other research and development tasks. This is really not pretending.

The hearts of netizens are fierce, and they don't have any personal thoughts.

Whether it is the acquisition of Maxwell or the acquisition of ARM, it is actually a performance of not doing business properly.

Where is the future of semiconductors?

Xiao Guozi immediately answered: Of course it's on our side.

How to prevent Maochang from entering the 10nm or even more advanced 7nm era has become a top priority.

Compared to this, ARM is really nothing.

Just as it doesn't matter how powerful Huawei's chip design is, it still has to find someone to stream the chip after all.

No matter how clever the processor development of the cat factory is.

In the end, it still needs to find someone to make this processor.

Without a higher-end EUV lithography machine, Maochang's processors can only be rotten in their hands, and Intel's mobile processors will rise rapidly and replace ARM to occupy the global market.

give him!

Xiaoguozi finally let go of borrowing, and even took the initiative to promote the negotiation between Softbank and Maochang.

It won't show up.

It's impossible to show up, after all, you have to show some face.

However, they do have people who speak for them.

This kind of spokesperson even comes from Huaxia, and he has a reputation.
