For Xie Heping and Li Fei sitting on one side plotting to rob themselves by means of tax collection, Yun Fei didn''t pay attention at all.
At the moment, he was measuring whether to bow to AMD or not.
After all, this is the order of the leaders above, which is related to the national strategy. If amd hadn''t been overwhelmed by Intel, it wouldn''t have let the cloud do this in order to get some benefits from the competition between the two companies.
Five hundred million dollars is really a little less for this technology.
Don''t you see that Intel''s investment is tens of billions of dollars?
If amd breaks down, the whole world hardware market will be monopolized by Intel. Just like Microsoft, China, which is suppressed by the United States using high technology, will suffer the most.
If there were no cloud holdings and no 91 Research Institute, Intel''s people might be in front of the leaders of the Ministry of science and technology or the Ministry of electronic industry of China, and say to the big guys with disdain like those who can''t stand the company: "can you Chinese produce computers without our processors?"
"Yunfei, this thing..." Xie Heping saw Yunfei''s face and knew that Yunfei didn''t pay much attention to the contract. They don''t know what''s inside, but they don''t want the final negotiation to break down.
"Why? This thing, that''s it. President Yu, about Philip''s equity, it involves the company''s trade secrets. I don''t want you to do anything harmful to the company''s image here. " Yunfei sees Yu Xiaogang ready to explain the matter and says coldly to him.
Then he turned to medek and said, "Mr. medek, the rights and obligations of both parties in this contract have been clearly written. If you don''t believe our respect for China''s laws, I need to provide additional commitments and guarantees. There is no need to continue our negotiation. What''s more, you''re just a vice president of AMD. Why do you ask me to make a commitment? Why should I sign this contract? "
After Yunfei finished, he picked up the water cup in front of him and drank water.
The whole meeting room became silent.
Medek didn''t think why Yunfei was like this. According to the conditions of Yunfei''s scheme, it shows that he still wants to reach this cooperation agreement very much. In this regard, Yunfei''s performance is too weird. At first, it was very strong, then suddenly changed, and began to be strong again at this critical moment.
I can''t see his purpose at all.
Isn''t it just for him to sign a guarantee that he won''t use abnormal means to seize equity?
This is also in Chinese mainland, if there is no need to worry about it internationally.
Once Yunfei finally does this, even if the U.S. government puts pressure on the Chinese government, the Chinese government will use it as an excuse that it is a private business behavior and the government cannot intervene. And the Chinese government will advise them to file a lawsuit in China.
Even if they have sufficient evidence, such a lawsuit will not have any results in ten, eight, or even thirty or fifty years.
There are great political risks in investing in China.
Seeing that the whole negotiation was deadlocked because of such a small issue, Xie Heping and Li Fei could only smile in relative silence. Worried about the collapse of the talks between the two sides, Xie Heping hurriedly acted as an intermediary. He suggested that the two sides take a break, communicate again, and then sit down for negotiations.
Both sides accepted his proposal and went into their own lounge.
Xie Heping also asked his secretary to call Zhang Hu who could persuade Yunfei, and then began to ask why Yunfei did this.
This is tens of billions of dollars. The investment of the whole 91 Research Institute in recent years is basically such a number. As long as you sign, you can get it! Although the Chengdu government will levy a part of the tax on this huge amount of money
"Mayor Xie, you''d better not persuade the boss. We have already suffered a great loss in this matter. If it weren''t for the above intervention, they would lose a billion dollars and don''t want to get our technology at all... "Yu Xiaogang was worried that Xie Heping, who didn''t know the inside story, would let Yun Fei run away completely. In particular, the old goods had the good intention to tax their first technology patent income
"Did it interfere?" Xie Heping and Li Fei were stunned and immediately became confused.
They feel that their brains have crashed like backward computer chips that can''t handle huge data - they really can''t figure out how to involve the big guys.
"Philip''s business is not our fault, which can be seen from their urgent visit to China by the Dutch Prime Minister and Philip president Eiffel..." Yu Xiaogang began to introduce what he had learned to Xie Heping.
They really shouldn''t give in to such things.
Not even with the orders of the top leaders.
A company cannot lose its most basic principles for the sake of interests, especially cloud non, which belongs to the soul power of the whole group company. Such things will certainly be reported in detail. At that time, how did Yunfei maintain his strong image?
"Boss, I think if we force each other like this again, it is likely to lead to another deadlock in the negotiation." After entering their lounge, Elena frowned and said to medek“ Although we still haven''t figured out why they have greatly reduced the conditions, and we don''t know much about the things between them and Philip... "
"This is the board''s request. Yun Fei has done this several times. It''s hard to guarantee that he won''t do it in the future. We can''t lose the Chinese market. Who knows what will happen in the future? " Medek also knows that neither side has a long-term plan for such cooperation.
However, the market is unpredictable, and no one knows what will happen in the future.
AMD''s profits have fallen sharply, and it has become more and more powerless under the pressure of Intel.
The Chinese market is their breakthrough point. As long as they unite with Wynn holdings to drive Intel out of China, they can change the current situation. They don''t need a large share of the Chinese market. As long as they have a 30% market share, it''s enough.
But will Yunfei agree?
"We should tell the board the current situation. There must be something wrong with the equity dispute between Philip and cloud holdings. After the cooperation is reached, we should build a business intelligence network in China... "Elena is very speechless about this matter.
They entered the Chinese market too late, and the company''s investment in the Chinese market has been weak.
This makes it impossible for them to obtain some information they need to help them make judgments at the critical moment.
"That''s for sure. Just for now... "Medek said with a frown.
"Boss, even if we don''t trust Mr. Yun Fei, we can also trust the Chinese government. The two leaders of Chengdu were present. We can let them act as notaries... "Zheng Qi suddenly said, just listening and having no chance to speak.
Hearing Zheng Qi''s words, Elena and medek looked at the Chinese girl like staring at a monster.
Zheng Qi couldn''t stand it all the time and wanted to run away. The girl trembled and said, "boss, I''m just an idea..."
"Zheng, your idea is really great!" Hearing Zheng Qi''s words, Elena and medek looked at each other. When Zheng Qi was struggling whether to resign voluntarily or wait to be fired by Elena, Elena suddenly hugged her, kissed her on the face and shouted happily.
This immediately made Zheng Qi silly.
"Zheng, your idea is really good. In this way, we don''t have to worry about breaking the contract when we don''t break the contract in the future. As long as there is the signature of the local chief officer, we can find their government in addition to problems in the future! " Medek gave Zheng Qi a thumbs up.
They never wanted to let Chinese government officials act as notaries. After all, this is a commercial contract and there is no precedent at all.
"Is this plan really feasible?" Zheng Qi is a little confused.
She just said something casually and didn''t think about it seriously at all.
"Of course, Elena, maybe we should talk to Chengdu officials now..." medek said excitedly.
In this way, the deadlock between the two sides will be greatly broken. They don''t have to force Yunfei to make a commitment. The invisible commitment of the Chinese government is far more secure than Yunfei''s commitment. Once the cloud wants to tear up the agreement, the Chinese government will not agree at that time.
Because the Chinese government acts as a notary.
Once such a thing gets out, who will not worry that their interests will not be protected? The government has no credibility. Who will invest in China?
Medek and Elena soon met Xie Heping and Zhang Hu, a senior official in charge of the economy of Bashu province.
"Do you mean to let our government be the notary of your cooperation? In this way, the contract will not be notarized by the notary office? " Hearing medek''s proposal, Xie Heping frowned.
There is no precedent at all.
"Although there is no precedent, we can sign it. We should have sufficient confidence in the cloud. Besides, this can also show that our local governments attach importance to such cooperation! The old man said that reform and opening up means crossing the river by feeling the stone. Although it''s been 20 years, we haven''t crossed the river yet... "Zhang Hu deeply knows Yun Fei''s temper.
He also knows that this is the best way to solve the problem at present.
In this way, there is no one who will lose face. The credibility of the government is much more powerful than the guarantee of cloud and Africa.
"For such a big project, we can do it in the future!" Li Fei also nodded his approval.
Anyway, as long as the funds hit Chengdu, it''s enough for them.
The more attention local governments pay, the more foreign capital will enter their scope of strength.
