Chapter 731 The time left for us is running out
"Boss, I have good news for you. This Italian company is very interested in our acquisition plan, and they agreed to start negotiations on it."

Xia Bing called back from Italy just to tell Hu Yang about this.

"Oh? This is really surprising. But Mr. Xia, do you still remember what I told you before leaving? You should be more cautious over there, and be careful of North America's interference."

On the phone, Hu Yang didn't say much.What should be said has already been said before Xia Bing left, and now she only needs to remind her.

"Please don't worry, I will never forget your explanation. Boss, where are you? Are you in the wild? There are quite a lot of rumors."

Xia Bing smiled, looking confident.

"I just boarded the Snow Wolf. Mr. Gao and I plan to go fishing today and take a day off. Mr. Xia, let's not talk about it. Let's communicate in time if there is any new situation on your side."

Hu Yang quickly hung up the phone and walked into the cabin with Gao Mingkang. The "Snow Wolf" set sail immediately and slowly left the Xiangjiang Pier.

After Xia Bing finished talking with Hu Yang on the phone, she carefully revised the principles of the acquisition negotiation.There are many pitfalls in international mergers and acquisitions. If you are not careful, you may fall into protracted litigation.

at dusk.

Hu Yang and Gao Mingkang had a seafood feast in the cabin, and then came to the deck, lying on chairs and blowing the sea breeze.

Today's weather is fine, calm seas, clear skies.

"Mr. Hu, I also want to understand that some things really can't be too anxious. I think that all the companies under our Huijia department will be able to achieve 100% de-North Americanization in a short time.

I've been thinking recently that the company still needs to enrich its product line and try to combine the consumer end with 4G application scenarios. "

With the maturity of 4G network, there are more and more application scenarios.

Gao Mingkang did not expect this business to become a new growth pole, but for Mingkang Communications, this is a deliberate exploration.

"Well, I think your idea is fine. However, Mr. Gao, you still have to focus on chip design, system software, and ecological construction."

The main business of Mingkang Communication is communication equipment, but the company has also developed very well in the fields of smart phones and chips.

Some popular consumer products can be done, but you can't put the cart before the horse.

Gao Mingkang nodded and said: "I think so too, but I will gradually extend my tentacles to multiple fields."

While drinking beer, the two chatted wildly, and before they knew it, it was completely dark.

Gao Mingkang proposed to stop the yacht, and then the two started night fishing.

Populus euphratica looked at the fishing rod, and his mind drifted away unconsciously.It can be said that the Huijia Department has encountered many obstacles, but it has basically survived.

To be honest, companies that can survive the strong suppression in North America are extremely rare in the world.

France's Alstom, RB's Toshiba, Deutsche Bank, etc., all chose to succumb to the pressure from North America.It is really not easy for the Huijia Department to get to where it is today.

However, after experiencing so many hardships, this group of executives from the Huijia Department has fully matured.

For example, Gao Mingkang, Xia Bing, Meng Rusong, Yan Hanzhang, Huang Tao, Zhang Xiao, Xu Younian, Mu Shaoqing, etc., even without Hu Yang, I believe they can do well

"It seems that it is time to continue to delegate power to the decision-making committee."

Hu Yang thought about it in his mind, and decided to wait for these two days to go back, ponder over it, and come up with a workable detailed rule.

"Hooked!"

Populus euphratica was wandering in the sky, Gao Mingkang suddenly lifted the pole, and a sea fish weighing three catties drew an arc from the sea and flung it onto the deck.

"Haha, Mr. Gao, you've opened your business."

Hu Yang laughed, anyway, his fishing skills were not very good, and he had no intention of comparing himself with Gao Mingkang from the beginning.

the next day.

The Snow Wolf returned to Xiangjiang Wharf. Hu Yang and Gao Mingkang and their party did not continue to stay in Xiangjiang, and returned to the deep sea that night.

Half a month later, Xia Bing reached a merger agreement with the company that produced plasma implantation machines in Italy, and immediately Xia Bing returned to China.

"Boss, the other party agrees to our acquisition plan. However, they have strict requirements on the terms of breach of contract.

The liquidated damages are [-] million euros. In terms of force majeure, it does not include government approvals and risks brought about by foreign approvals. "

The reason why Xia Bing did not sign a formal agreement with the other party was the difficulty in breaching the agreement.According to the meaning of the Italian company, after signing the agreement, if the domestic or foreign government does not approve the acquisition plan, Huijia International Investment will also need to pay liquidated damages.

"Hehe, this is a big problem. Mr. Xia, we can't agree to this condition, otherwise wouldn't the [-] million euros be like giving it away for nothing?
If you ask me, if the other party is very sincere, you might as well come to China to set up a joint venture company first.They provide technology, and we provide capital. "

Hu Yang sneered, they are so shrewd, if they don’t want to take the risk, did they make us successful?
"I'm also worried about this, so I only reached a non-legally binding intention with them. Later, I will do as you said and ask them if they would like to come to China to build a joint venture factory."

Xia Bing was not discouraged either. Mergers and acquisitions between companies, especially international mergers and acquisitions, have always been very complicated, and they can't be done so quickly.

But she didn't expect that when Huijia International Investment proposed a new cooperation plan, the Italian company immediately rejected it.

This shows that people are not in a hurry.

"Hey, does this mean we're going to be determined? Forget it, Mr. Xia, let's end the negotiation with this company and withdraw all of our people."

Hu Yang considered for two days, and finally decided to abandon the acquisition plan.

Although both he and Xia Bing felt a little pity.

However, the normal business exchanges between everyone have not stopped.The other party is still willing to participate in the supply chain of companies such as Xintong International and Charm Semiconductor, and said that their products will not be affected by the North American ban.

For this point, not only Populus euphratica, but also Meng Rusong expressed doubts.

After Meng Rusong sorted out the things made in Southwest China, he spent a lot of time on Xintong International Deep Sea Factory.

The deep-sea factory represents the highest level of Xintong International's process technology, but relatively speaking, the process of de-North Americanization is slower.

The reason is to maintain advanced production technology, so the technical level of equipment and raw materials cannot be low.For example, some replacement equipment manufactured by Southwest cannot enter the deep-sea factory for the time being due to insufficient technical level.

At present, North America has not issued a clear ban on Xintong International.As long as Xintong International does not manufacture chips for Mingkang Communications, there will be no problem for the time being.

In order to ensure the chip supply of Mingkang Communications, the production has been transferred to Southwest Manufacturing.The deep sea factory currently provides 28nm (N+2 generation) production services for domestic and international customers, and orders have been queued until one year later.

"Mr. Hu, it's really a pity. The various chips of Mingkang Communication are very powerful, and the indicators are far superior to GT's products. It's a pity that North America can't compete with us fairly, so they took the method of turning the table. It's really shameful. "

What Meng Rusong meant was that it would be great if we could manufacture for Mingkang Communications in the deep sea factory. The most advanced technology should serve our own people first.

"Take your time. Do you think the deep sea factory can maintain the status quo? Based on my understanding of North America, the other party will definitely not let it go. It's just that they haven't found an excuse yet."

Hu Yang curled his lips. He knew very well that North America was definitely very unhappy about Southwest Manufacturing making chips for Mingkang Communications.

However, whether it is production equipment, components or raw materials, Southwest Manufacturing has completely bypassed North American technology and enterprises, and the other party is not very good at direct attack.

In addition, the attitude of the relevant domestic departments also makes North America a little afraid.

"Well, the deep sea factory has been doing de-North American work. It's just not so intense. After all, I want to ensure quality first."

According to the plan of the deep sea factory, it will take about two years to completely de-North America.This is a safe strategy, the purpose is not to affect the normal production.

Hu Yang nodded, and said: "You just have to know what's in your mind. Anyway, we don't have much time left."

Meng Rusong didn't sit in Hu Yang's office for too long, the two of them went to the top floor to have lunch at noon, and he went directly to the factory.

Hu Yang came to the lounge, ready to take a lunch break.

"Mr. Hu, Academician Lu Yiming called. He said that he had just arrived in the deep sea with some experts from the Electric Power Research Institute. When are you free? They want to visit you."

Before he could lie down, Wu Xinhui knocked on the door apologetically and walked in.

"Oh? Academician Lu has come to the deep sea? Assistant Wu, call me, I'll call them back."

Hu Yang met Academician Lu last time in the capital, and he also said that he would invite Academician Lu to come to the deep sea to play when he has time, but he did not expect to meet him suddenly.

When the call was made, it was Lu Yiming who answered.

The two chatted a few words on the phone, and then made an appointment to meet at the Investment Building at 04:30 in the afternoon.

in the afternoon.

Hu Yang has been processing documents in the office until Lu Yiming and his party arrive.

"Mr. Hu, let me introduce you. This is Dr. Ma Qiang from the Electric Power Research Institute, and this is Dr. Liu Qiyu from the Electric Power Research Institute."

Accompanying Lu Yiming was a man and a woman. Both of them were in their 30s and [-]s, and they looked like researchers.

"Academician Lu, Dr. Ma, Dr. Liu, please sit down. Would you like coffee or tea?"

Hu Yang received Lu Yiming and others in the small reception room.

"Give us three cups of tea."

The other two seemed a little restrained, and Lu Yiming replied with a smile.

Hu Yang nodded, and then asked Wu Xinhui to bring in a pot of tea.

"Mr. Hu, this time I came to Shenhai suddenly, besides looking at you, I have something to ask for your help.

Dr. Ma and the others have successfully developed an ion implanter, and the performance of the product is definitely at the advanced level in the world.However, they lack experience and funds for industrialization. Are you interested? "

After everyone sat down, they talked for a while, and then Lu Yiming went straight to the topic.

"Ion implantation equipment?"

Hu Yang was a little dazed, he didn't know whether it was his good luck or Lu Yiming was his lucky star in the first place.

Some time ago, Xia Bing had been staying in Italy, discussing mergers and acquisitions with the other manufacturer. Wasn’t it because of ion implantation equipment?

"Ahem, Mr. Hu, let me tell you about our research project. Look, I also brought relevant materials."

When talking about his research project, Dr. Ma talked a lot.

Dr. Liu quickly took out a large stack of technical documents from his bag and handed them to Hu Yang.Hu Yang took it, flipped through it casually, and then put it aside.

"Don't read the information first, everyone, sit down for a while, I'll make a phone call."

Hu Yang smiled slightly, it was only now that he dared to believe that such a coincidence really existed in the world.The ion implantation equipment that he, Meng Rusong and Xia Bing had been worrying about for a long time suddenly appeared in front of them.

He said hello, then went out, asked Wu Xinhui to call Xia Bing and Meng Rusong, and told them to come quickly.Xia Bing has been negotiating with the Italian company for a long time, and she has an idea about this.

As for Meng Rusong, let alone, he is an expert in this field.

Hu Yang went back to the small reception room and sat down, and said with a smile: "Academician Lu, Dr. Ma, Dr. Liu, I don't know much about technology. But I have technical experts and experts who specialize in investment here. Will be there."

"Haha, Xiao Ma, Xiao Liu, I said that Hu is always a cheerful person, right? Don't worry, he obviously attaches great importance to your research results."

Lu Yiming observed the situation and knew in his heart that the industrialization of Dr. Ma's research results has a high probability of success.

"Thank you Mr. Hu, we are not in a hurry, it's okay to wait a little longer."

Liu Qiyu quickly expressed his gratitude to Hu Yang, and said that he was not in a hurry to wait for others, so he could wait longer.

Hu Yang nodded with a smile, then looked at Lu Yiming: "Academician Lu, what have you been up to lately? If you have nothing else to do when you come to the deep sea this time, I will accompany you around."

"What else can I be busy with? My main job now is to promote the development of domestic core technologies. To tell you the truth, I am here this time mainly to help Pony and their projects and find funds for industrialization.

If you have no problem here, I have a lot of time, and I can look around when the time comes.If you can't do it here, I have to find another way, so I don't have time. "

Lu Yiming won't feel that this matter is safe just because he has a good relationship with Hu Yang.Whether things are successful or not depends on each person's needs and vision, and he will not force it.

Hu Yang smiled and nodded, noncommittal.

This kind of thing requires a professional evaluation process, and he will not easily express his position before the conclusion is out.

Not long after, Xia Bing walked in.

"Mr. Xia, it just so happens that Dr. Ma and the others have successfully developed ion implantation equipment. Now they plan to promote industrialization. Let's talk about specific issues. Academician Lu, let's go to my tea room?"

Hu Yang vacated the space for Xia Bing, and after Meng Rusong came, they could talk freely.
