Chapter 2002 The SUN Company Is in Hand!

Xiao Qi's first attack was to directly expose the "golden parachute" request from the top management of Sun Company.

okay.

Only the eight executives of Lehman Brothers were on the front foot. Because of their greedy and shameless "golden parachute" requirements, Lehman Brothers fell. When the global financial crisis began, you revealed that the top executives of SUN Corporation also demanded "" "Golden Parachute" in order to sell SUN Company to Fairy Company, which will blow up the nest!

Ordinary people in the United States are actually quite honest. If they are fooled according to the whole people, they must not be able to compare with the people of China, because our small people in China also have the wisdom of small people, but their ordinary people do not.

Being honest means being easily deceived and impulsive.

They saw that SUN also asked for a "golden parachute", but they didn't think about the deep-seated reasons. They didn't think that SUN was different from Lehman Brothers. They didn't think that SUN was a technology management company, while Lehman Brothers was an investment company. speculative company.

What they think is this dog. Japan's Sun company, what a bastard! The previous Lehman Brothers have made such a mess, do you think we are not miserable enough?

As long as the executive who asks for a "golden parachute" is a bastard! It is the enemy of the Americans! !

This belief has completely penetrated into the minds of Americans, causing them to burst into anger directly.

As long as the American people care about it, the senators and congressmen will make a big fuss.

Seeing the public opinion, Obama jumped out first: "Presidents and executives of Sun Corporation should face up to the damage caused by the 'golden parachute' to the feelings of the American people. Business transactions should not involve so many outsiders. matter!"

Bush Jr., who was about to step down, also rushed out, using his usual unreliable remarks: "These people are a disgrace to the United States, just lock them up for 100 years!"

After all, the two of them are the most well-known, so they still have some scruples about their influence, but the senators and congressmen below, in order to stand out. But any weird remarks can be said.

"I think so, just shut down SUN. Let's see where they are going to blackmail!"

"You don't even get enough money to sell stocks, and you have to be compensated with a huge 'golden parachute'. You really know how to do business! But you treat everyone else as a pig's brain? Like you?"

"I think the Fair Trading Commission should file a lawsuit against them immediately. The United States does not need these scumbags!"

"Pennsylvania has decided to severely condemn Mamons, the president of SUN, who was born in this state. You are a shame to us!"

"People on Wall Street are nothing! Silicon Valley seems to be the same! I think there should be a special tax rate, as long as the shares of these guys are sold. Tax them all! Make them not make a penny!"

"..."

On the one hand, the political circles are the same, and the same is true in the financial circles, and the people are even more outraged, so executives such as Sun's Mamons have really become street rats, and everyone shouts and beats them.

It has to be said that the unlucky example of Lehman Brothers also seriously implicated SUN. Originally, the US government should have cared about Fairy Company's continuous acquisition of the US electronic technology industry, but now it is completely off topic. Everyone agrees that if Sun Company does not sell to Fairy Company according to the normal price and procedures, it will be a great crime!

The will of the people cannot be violated.

This is true whether in Europe, America or China. All the same applies.

Under the strong pressure, Sun Company could not resist in just three days. Actively contacted Credit Suisse First Boston.

They don’t want to compromise and there is nothing they can do. Not only is it condemned by public opinion, but the protesters also surrounded the office building. Whether employees enter or exit from the building or from the underground parking lot, they will be smashed with tomatoes and eggs, but these protests There are still many others, if you dare to resist anything, then you will have fun.

The middle and bottom employees of the company. Very angry about this because it has nothing to do with them. But it involved them.

And the most important thing is that the life of SUN company these years is too ordinary. They were two heroes with Microsoft in the past, but now they are in a miserable state. The employees of SUN company hope to rise again all the time.

But the problem is that the executives of SUN have repeatedly made mistakes in decision-making, which caused the company to lose opportunities time and time again.

If that's the case, that's all. After all, they founded the company and they are the decision-makers.

But now that you are a half-dead company, there are super giants like Fairy Company who are willing to buy them and give them greater development prospects. This is what any motivated employee would like to see!

The results of it?

Fortunately, you don't care about the company's development at all. Instead, you ask the "golden parachute" to withdraw a fortune. What kind of responsibility is this?

If the news hadn't been revealed by the newspapers, the employees would not have known that such negotiations had taken place. In this way, the intentions of the management were clearly revealed.

So, a group of employees also collectively went to talk to Mammons. If the management is willing to continue to run the company well, then they have no objection, but if they are not interested in the company, then they hope to sell the company to Fairy Company. Don't think about eagerly making a fortune and knocking a fortune to leave.

In addition, SUN's stock has also plummeted recently. The stock price dropped from 6.37 US dollars before the news broke to 3.23 US dollars, and the market value plummeted to 2.4 billion US dollars, setting the lowest market value in SUN's history.

With such internal and external troubles, the management of SUN can only choose to compromise.

Credit Suisse First Boston Bank is now full of confidence and is not used to them at all.

In addition to the cancellation of the "golden parachute", Credit Suisse First Boston only gave a 20% premium to management shares, 10% less than before.

Anyway, if you want to sell it, you can sell it, and we are not in a hurry if you don't sell it.

SUN really doesn't have the capital to bargain. Seeing the financial crisis spreading, SUN is already a weak software company, and it will be difficult to get up in two or three years.

If they miss this opportunity, they will get even less when the stock price drops to worthless.

Don't doubt how serious they are thinking, but when the whole of the United States condemns Sun, even Microsoft will be killed by Sun, let alone they are not a behemoth like Microsoft.

Out of pessimism about the future, Mamons and the others agreed to Fairy Company's various conditions after negotiating all night.

Fairy Company acquired 53% of the shares held by the management and employees for a total of 1.5 billion US dollars, of which the employees' shares were purchased at a premium of 30%.

The rest of the companies and institutional shareholders who hold SUN shares will also purchase at a price increase of 30%. The shares held by SUN have met the requirements for privatization and delisting.

Xiao Qi only needs to be responsible for signing and paying the money, and Credit Suisse First Boston will help him with the rest.

Although it was Xiao Qi who made the most of this time, and Xiao Qi also sold 3% of Dream Stars shares in Credit Suisse First Boston Bank, but they still have to charge up to 130 million U.S. dollars for a complete set of acquisition services.

But it's worth it, at least when Xiao Qi gets it in his hands, everything will be straightened out for him, and he only needs to recruit a few good professional managers to stabilize Sun Company.

The most valuable things of SUN are two - the JAVA programming language and the Solaris operating system.

Among them, the JAVA programming language is open to all programmers free of charge like LINUX, but the important programming language JAVA2ME derived from it belongs to the patent of SUN Corporation.

Maybe the importance of JAVA2ME has not been revealed yet, but after one or two years, when large-scale online games and mobile games are integrated, the system processing requirements for mobile phones will be very high. At that time, JAVA2ME will show its talents when.

To put it bluntly, mobile phone manufacturers all over the world will pay patent fees to SUN because of JAVA2ME.

Although there are not many, the problem is that if SUN does not allow you to use it, then it is not a matter of a little patent fee, and your product will not be able to be marketed!

The Android system of GOOGLE in the previous life was sued by Oracle, which bought Sun, for this reason. The demand for compensation of 1 billion US dollars made GOOGLE a headache even looking at it.

Xiao Qi won JAVA2ME, just as a backup, he will not take the initiative to target anyone, but if anyone wants to target Fairy Company, then don't blame him for being rude.

As for the remaining Solaris operating system, it is a great supplement to the fairy system.

With more and more users, there are more and more various apps. How to make the best use of these apps, whether it is a game or a program, depends on your program tuning ability.

There are no less than hundreds of people under Xiao Qi who specialize in studying the fairy system, but they have too little background. Although Xiao Qi has acquired many companies, none of them can compare with Sun's Solaris operating system.

After all, he was a famous operating system that was comparable to WINDOWS back then.

Even without JAVA2ME, Xiao Qi felt that $3 billion was worth it just for the Solaris operating system.

In the future, almost all domestic mobile phones in Huaguo will use the Android system. Isn't this a kind of sadness?

Xiao Qi wants to find a way that does not rely on others, and this can be regarded as contributing to Huaguo's smart electronics industry! ! (to be continued ~^~)

PS:  The richest man has changed so quickly these days. Lao Ma was first defeated by Li Chaoren, and then surpassed by Wang Wanda... The rich man in the stock market is really not so safe.
