: Blame-shifting posture

The dinner ended promptly at eight o'clock.

When she walked out of the magnificent dinner hall, classmate Liu Xiaohan was very angry. She decided to deal with this bad guy Ning Qing in the next twenty-four hours. The mood of other people in Hanwei Group was very stable. Liu Zhixin did not tell the negotiators this time

The delegation did not disclose anything about Ning Qing. Therefore, the members of the delegation also believed that this visit was just a temporary measure of the chairman, and naturally they did not have any special expectations. Some even felt that the chairman's decision was a bit willful.

For the other party in the negotiation, the situation is exactly the opposite. The biggest feeling of almost everyone who has access to certain news at this time is probably confusion and deep confusion. When a completely impossible possibility appears, the big bosses

The first reaction was probably that I just thought it was funny.

But when more and more information supports that this impossible possibility seems to be possible, the big guys start to stop laughing. Someone has to think about what it will bring to the subsequent negotiations if this possibility exists.

Impact. What's more, if this news is true, it will not only affect the immediate referees, but also the development strategy of West Chip.

However, the results are actually similar.

When the Hanwei Group delegation returned to the hotel, they did not rest, but began to work overtime to discuss how to proceed with the next negotiation. Business negotiation is a very complicated task, and one needs to guess the other party's bottom line through constant testing.

, and use various methods to demonstrate their own advantages and amplify the other party's shortcomings, thereby exerting pressure and obtaining favorable results for themselves.

Especially for Hanwei Group, the policies promulgated by the Ryan government have put too much pressure on them, and the situation they face is more complicated, so they naturally need to work harder.

In a sense, Ning Qing's performance at least brought the two sides to the same starting line, because at this time, the West Chip executives were also working overtime, because they had to judge that Tony Sanda had no intention of getting what he wanted from the high school student today.

How true is that information?

Liu Zhixin's worries were obviously unnecessary, because the West Chip meeting was obviously of a very high level. It was not just the technical executives who participated, but almost all the executives participated in the meeting. It can also be seen from this point

In fact, West Chip also attaches great importance to this acquisition initiated by Hanwei Group.

There is no way, although during the negotiations, West has always emphasized that they have the most advanced chip technology in the world, and the products have no worries about selling. But in fact, West's current situation is not good, and the so-called advanced is not good.

Only compared to the chip industry of Yonghan Republic.

In fact, West Chip's products currently do not have advantages worldwide. It's not that their products are inferior to others, it's mainly because this old chip company is facing a cost-effectiveness problem. In addition, West Chip belongs to the

A large integrated chip company that has both chip design and chip manufacturing capabilities also means that the company has too many heavy assets. Once profits decline, liquidity problems will easily arise.

In addition, there have been some problems with high-level decision-making in the past few years. In order to develop profit points, West Chip has spent huge sums of money to start laying out the fields of smart chips and automotive chips. Judging from the market development in recent years, this layout is slightly ahead of its time.

The result is that the corresponding technology, which has cost a lot of money, cannot bring corresponding profits to the company for the time being.

At the same time, investment cannot be cut off. Because more and more companies are beginning to seize the track, once they relax, they may be overtaken by latecomers. Therefore, even if the concept of smart cars is still not accepted by the public, West still

You have to bite the bullet and keep throwing money into it.

This resulted in the current situation.

West Chip is short of money, big money. Hanwei Group is currently in urgent need of chip manufacturing technology, so the two parties directly sat together.

If an agreement can be reached in this negotiation, Hanwei Group will be able to obtain the two chip manufacturing plants of West Chip in Ryan. Although the processes of these two factories are lagging behind, at least they have mature production lines that can help Hanwei.

Wei Group has overcome the current difficulties. At the same time, West Chip can also get rid of its backward production capacity and obtain the cash flow that is most important to the company now.

It was supposed to be a hit-and-miss business, but now it's stuck with a huge political donation.

According to West Chip, if they want this deal to be completed smoothly, they will need at least 200 million Swiss dollars to lobby relevant government decision-makers. But Ryan does not want to pay any of this money, and more than that,

Therefore, this money must be allocated to the transaction amount of this acquisition, and Hanwei Group needs to transfer this money to West Chip after signing the contract and before the acquisition is officially launched.

Because West Chip cannot guarantee that after the money is spent, the acquisition will definitely be allowed. But the rule is that after the money is spent, no matter whether the lobbying is successful or not, there will be no refund. In other words, Hanwei

The group may have spent 200 million Swiss dollars, but the policy still cannot guarantee that the acquisition will proceed smoothly.

Although West Chip has repeatedly assured that this possibility is not high, as long as the decision-makers are willing to accept money, they will usually get things done. But from the perspective of Hanwei Group, this inexplicable risk is obviously unacceptable. This is why Liu Zhixin

He always laughs at himself because these Ruian people think he is here to bring warmth.

If you want to get back the money you gave out, you will have to file an international lawsuit.

However, West Chip determined that Hanwei Group was now desperate, so it refused to give in to this request. To put it bluntly, it was betting that Hanwei Group had no retreat, so it began to exert extreme pressure.

This is also the reason why Ning Qing performed that drama in front of Tony Sanda. The purpose was to give West Chip the illusion and make them realize that Hanwei Group has a way out. Of course, the best result is to make West Chip

It would be even more perfect if the decision-makers of Special Chip feel that the acquisition proposed by Hanwei Group is actually to paralyze the Ryan government's technological blockade.

Anyway, Ning Qing didn't know if he could make money by doing this, but what was certain was that he would definitely not lose money. Moreover, Ning Qing believed that the possibility of success was very high. When the advantage of poor information is used against stupid people, the effect may not be that obvious. But

If the opponents are all smart people and conspiracy theorists, the effect will often be unexpectedly good.

The facts seemed to be developing in the direction Ning Qing expected.

When Tony Sanda explained the contents of his conversation with Ning Qing this afternoon and some of Ning Qing's performance at that time as completely as possible to the company management in the conference room, everyone had strange expressions.

But this was not the climax. The real climax was after Tony Sanda roughly recounted the conversation between the two in the afternoon, and all the senior executives participating in the meeting received a stack of Ning Qing's information. At this time, everyone finally realized

This high school student is unusual...

In fact, this information is not very complete. It only contains Ning Qing’s current school, the two papers he submitted to the International Mathematical Modeling Competition, the program he wrote, and a question he raised. But these are actually enough.

.

A high school student has been valued by two world-class mathematicians. The mathematical problems he raised have triggered widespread discussions in the world's mathematics community. At the same time, he has been listed as a focus of attention by an internationally renowned consulting and management company. More importantly, the article on finance

The financial operating tools mentioned in the innovative paper...

Such an awesome experience added at least 30% more credibility to what this high school student said to Tony Sanda in the afternoon.

It is indeed understandable that a high school student who can come up with world-class mathematical problems helps a chip laboratory solve a mathematical problem about chip design, and thus obtains a lot of information about the laboratory's new chips that do not need to be too confidential, right?

As for why he said these things to the people at West Chip...well, you can't ask a young man who is not yet eighteen years old to have the same thinking as an adult. There was another person in Ryan's defense department who was over 20 years old.

A technical officer who is 2 years old has posted all the country's top-secret information on the Internet. No matter what a child of this age does, it will not be too strange.

Not to mention that Ning Qing did not mention too many key technical details, nor did he describe the details of the mathematical problem he solved. He only revealed that there is such a chip laboratory that is researching a new configuration of chips.

This kind of information is probably not top secret. If Tony Sanda's description is followed, Ning Qing just wants to show off his abilities in front of fellow technicians.

Is it wrong for teenagers to show off?

So although this news sounds incredible, it is still possible after all.

…

"Okay, everyone, let's share your opinions." There was silence in the conference room for about twenty minutes, enough for everyone to browse Ning Qing's information, and then Eric Watt, the current CEO of West Chip, spoke. Paper

It is impossible to give these people time to look carefully. At least half of the people in the conference room cannot understand it.

After Eric Watt finished speaking, some people immediately began to express their opinions.

"Everyone, I think this news is most likely false. Before this meeting, I consulted with Nardo. I wanted to study a new chip configuration. He roughly described to me what he wanted to accomplish in the eyes of a technical person.

How difficult is it to design a new chip configuration? It is almost impossible without several years of technical accumulation. From material selection, to design software, to hardware system research.

Ryan's restrictive measures against Hanwei Group's chips only came to light last year. Even if Hanwei Group had reacted at that time to start developing chip manufacturing technology, it would not have been in time. In addition, if it was really a rainy day,

After several years of developing a chip, it is impossible for us not to hear any news. The above is my opinion."

The person who expressed the opinion was Rabis Crowe, global vice president of West Chip, and one of the few female executives of West Chip.

Her attitude was very clear, and she obviously didn't believe Ning Qing's performance words.

Eric Watt nodded, and then looked at Vint Berner, chief technology officer of the chip research center: "Vent, what do you think?"

Wente Bernard, who was still studying Ning Qing's paper with his head down, raised his head and looked around the conference room, then curled his lips and thought for a moment before speaking: "It's hard to say. From a scientific research perspective, Ms. Crowe just said

This is actually true. But sometimes there are various coincidences in the development of human technology. For example, a laboratory error may lead to the birth of a new material.

A sudden idea by an engineer while doing relevant experiments may lead to a technical miracle. This kind of thing sounds like a small probability event, but if it is magnified to thousands of laboratories, this situation is actually

It's not uncommon. So I'm not sure whether Hanwei Group really started laying out a special chip direction based on some coincidence.

In addition, Ning Qing leaked some technical details in his communication with Tonyer. From a professional point of view, these technical details are actually very difficult to make up without samples for testing and support. It is very easy to make them up.

We can find loopholes in it. Unfortunately, the technical details disclosed by that little guy, including the all-carbon heat dissipation structure, are feasible after computer simulation.

Based on the above reasons, I dare not give a final conclusion on the authenticity of this information on behalf of the R&D center. My personal opinion is that even if the other party has not successfully developed the corresponding chip in the laboratory, at least it should already have enough

We have relevant technical reserves, but I’m not sure when it will be mass-produced.”

A very conservative guess and a very smart statement.

For these technical executives, they only provide technical reference opinions to decision-makers. If they are not sure, there is really no need to speak too absolutely. After all, it is necessary to take responsibility for giving an accurate judgment directly.

"So, assuming that the information revealed by Ning Qing is true, the chip he described is more advanced than traditional chips?" Eric Watt frowned and asked.

"Of course it is impossible to obtain in the early stage, but the isomeric configuration of silicon and carbon definitely has more development potential than pure silicon materials. According to Ning Qing, this kind of circuit is engraved on the inner and outer walls of carbon nanotubes, so it is a three-dimensional structure

.The expanded area may be larger. On the other hand, carbon atoms are much smaller than silicon atoms, so in the future, this technology will probably be more competitive in more advanced processes."

Winter Bernard shrugged and answered.

Then Winter Bernard turned to look at Tonyer Sanda, who was sitting on his right, and said: "Tonyier, you are the one who has been in contact with Ning Qing this afternoon, why don't you tell me your opinion?"

Tony Sanda said solemnly: "I think it's better than this. Tomorrow we will find a reason to invite the young man out to have a meal alone. We can chat with the young man together and then judge the information.

True or false? I believe everyone’s wisdom can tell whether this high school student is lying.”
