Chapter 2861 Mr. Luo’s Dream Is Hard to Come True
Compared to the congestion, noise, haze and pollution in Seoul, Quan Wuxuan and his team fell in love with Munich at the airport. Although it was just as cold, the fresh air here quickly swept away their fatigue from the long journey.
Many people in the team said to themselves, "Even the air is sweet!"
Looking again, wow, I couldn't see it clearly on the plane just now, but now the Alps under the rising sun are really majestic and spectacular! - Of course, this is also said in my heart.
On the surface, they all said, "It's okay, but compared with Halla Mountain, it still lacks some style,"
"Halla Mountain is so good, with beautiful and unique scenery, and you can experience warm, hot, cool and cold at the same time. What does this mean? This means that one day on Halla Mountain can have four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter,"
The total area of the Alps is more than 200,000 square kilometers, with an average altitude of 3,000 meters.
Halla Mountain is their highest peak, located on Jeju Island. The mountain is not big, and the highest is only 1,950 meters.
But it was this mountain that they named Hallasan, which means that it is so high that it can catch the Milky Way...
I am afraid that only Quan Wuxuan could not relax at this time. Neither the air of Munich nor the scenery of the Alps could leave a shadow in his heart.
On the way into the city, he kept looking out the window, but he did not see anything outside the window.
For Munich at this time, he only had one concept, Feng Yiping was here!
And he was getting closer and closer to him, that is, he would soon face him face to face.
But thinking of the chairman's earnest expectations and solemn instructions, he was under great pressure. After a short rest in the hotel and a quick breakfast, he hurried to Qimonda to pay a visit.
He also contacted the local Samsung employees, and only knew that Qimonda had hosted Feng Yiping and his party in a castle under the Alps yesterday. The specific details were not yet known-the local Samsung employees were not professional intelligence personnel after all, but since they had not yet issued a statement, they should not have reached an agreement.
But because Infineon CEO Peter Bauer followed Feng Yiping to the Hilton Hotel last night, it is not ruled out that they are negotiating overnight, which means that they may reach an agreement soon.
This information made Quan Wuxuan dare not neglect it at all.
No matter what the final result is, the attitude must be very positive, the chairman is still paying close attention to this place!
Fortunately, when they arrived at Qimonda, the curtain had not fallen yet. The old rival, the silver-haired CEO of Qimonda, smiled and greeted them warmly in front of the building.
His appearance made Quan Wuxuan quite unhappy. How could you still put on such a posture? You really had better die soon.
"Nice to meet you," "I have heard of you for a long time," they held arms and walked into the Qimonda building together.
What made Quan Wuxuan more satisfied was the attitude of Mr. Luo after the meeting began. It was very cordial, really as cordial as a guest at home. This is not right!
"People in the same industry are not necessarily enemies, but they know each other better. We have always admired Samsung Semiconductor for being able to become the leader in the storage market in just a decade or two," said Mr. Luo with a smile.
"We have always been very willing to cooperate with such an outstanding peer,"
Kwon Oh-hyun also knew the language style of this competitor at this time, so he automatically changed "cooperation" to "acquisition."
He was a little bit grumbling in his heart. He welcomed our offer so warmly. Could it be that Feng Yiping had come more than a day earlier, but there was no progress?
He immediately flashed a little bit of joy in his heart, but then he denied it himself. It's impossible!
That's Feng Yiping.
You know, he was ready to hear that Feng Yiping had reached an agreement with Qimonda on the plane or as soon as he got off the plane.
"We also respect the achievements of Qimonda and Infineon. The plan of Mr. Schumacher, the former CEO of Infineon, is very impressive,"
He looked at Mr. Luo with a smile, but Mr. Luo couldn't smile at this time.
Kwon Oh-hyun's words were quite meaningful.
It was indeed under the leadership of Schumacher, the first CEO of Infineon, that the various businesses, including memory, developed best.
It can be said that Schumacher was the standard bearer of Infineon's memory expansion strategy. During his tenure, he also had a plan that, if successful, would allow Infineon's memory business to remain at the top of the industry.
Schumacher envisioned at the time that he would form an alliance with manufacturers across the strait, bring both ProMOS and Nanya under his command, and add SMIC, with a market share close to 30% - that would completely suppress Samsung.
To be honest, this plan is really feasible.
ProMOS, Nanya, and Powerchip are the three most powerful memory manufacturers on the other side of the strait.
Among them, ProMOS was a joint venture established with Mosel Electronics before Siemens separated its semiconductor business and established Infineon. Therefore, as soon as Infineon was established, it became one of the major shareholders of ProMOS Electronics.
But it was ProMOS, which seemed to be a natural ally of Infineon, that became the biggest negative factor in Schumacher's plan.
In 2001, due to the sluggish memory market, Mosel, which held 62% of the shares of ProMOS Electronics, pledged a large amount of ProMOS shares in the market without Infineon's knowledge, which led to conflicts between the two parties.
Schumacher was also a man of temperament. In anger, he interrupted the technology license to Promos. For Promos, which did not have its own technology, this was no less than a death sentence. So it insisted that it still had the right to use Infineon's technology... The two sides completely tore each other apart.
Later, Schumacher had to join hands with Nan Ya, a subsidiary of Formosa Plastics, to establish a joint venture company, Huaya Technology, to manufacture for Infineon. Just when he was about to use other paths to complete his vision, he was expelled from the company by the board of directors on the grounds of bribery. He started a lawsuit with Infineon... His dream of alliance has since been shattered.
And because of the extreme lack of money, under the leadership of President Luo, Qimonda cashed out all the shares of Huaya Technology last year, so that the last crystallization of Schumacher's original ambition was completely dissipated.
President Luo looked at Quan Wuxuan, and he understood that Quan Wuxuan's words actually meant that for Infineon and Qimonda, we respect Schumacher very much, but everyone except Schumacher, including you, is scum!
He almost cursed out loud again. If Schumacher's idea could finally succeed, I would be sitting in front of you today, discussing how to acquire your company.
The painful thing is that he dared not show such emotions at all.
His confidence yesterday was all based on Feng Yiping's interest in Qimonda. After Feng Yiping showed so much determination, if Qimonda wanted to avoid bankruptcy, Samsung was their last hope.
So he still smiled and said, "It is Samsung's persistence and counter-cyclical investment strategy that deserves our admiration."
It must be said that his performance at this time is absolutely better than a large number of gold medal actors in Hong Kong dramas.
But Quan Wuxuan looked at his smiling face and further confirmed one thing, this is not right!
There must be something going on.
What will happen?
This is not difficult to guess. There must be something wrong between Qimonda and Feng Yiping, otherwise, he would never flatter like this.
Is it really something that happened between him and Feng Yiping, that is, Feng Yiping's acquisition of Qimonda has a problem? Quan Wuxuan is a little unsure, that is Feng Yiping!
After thinking for a while, he asked, "By the way, I heard that Mr. Feng arrived in Munich yesterday? Our president even asked us to bring him New Year greetings."
Mr. Luo was very clear about the inquiring meaning of Quan Wuxuan's words, but this inquiry just hit his sore spot.
He chose his words carefully, "Mr. Feng's concern for Qimonda, I think you also know, Mr. Quan, we are very sorry that he flew to Munich during the Spring Festival."
"The negotiation between us was also very smooth. Of course, considering the professionalism of the memory industry and the future development of Qimonda, we still welcome peers to invest in Qimonda."
Kwon Wuxuan's eyes were full of excitement. Yes, there was really a problem between Qimonda and Feng Yiping!
He laughed, "Of course, this is also our wish. I think I must report this good news to our president immediately, so you see, let's come to visit again in the afternoon, okay?"
Mr. Luo was a little panicked, that's it?
What's there to report?
No, they must have noticed something.
But forcing them to stay would cause more problems.
"Of course, no problem. It just so happens that we have plans next, you know," he said with a smile.
Quan Wuxuan was completely unmoved. It's useless to scare me. If you can reach an agreement, you would have reached an agreement long ago.
On the way back to the hotel, he started to make phone calls. When he arrived at the hotel, he finally got the news he wanted. Feng Yiping and his group had flown to the UK early in the morning!
He couldn't help but be ecstatic!
