Chapter 0741 three questions
People die for money and birds die for food. Whether they are from Hua or mei, it is the same.
Paul was indeed unwilling to stay in Huaguo for a long time because there were different cultures and customs here, and he had to consider the issue of his wife and children, but he still agreed to Li Rui's invitation.
There is no way, Li Rui gave too much!
There are really too many!
In order to avoid the long and long dreams, Li Rui pulled him to Gusu on the afternoon of the day when Paul agreed to visit the mobile chip research and development base selected by Tang Lihe himself.
The ancient saying "Fireworks in Yangzhou in March". At this time, it was just the third month of the lunar calendar. The climate and scenery of Gusu are no less than those in Yangzhou.
The Gusu Industrial Park is full of factory buildings, a busy scene.
As the car drove along, Paul saw many familiar brands and exclaimed a series of surprises, making people wonder whether he came from Magnesium or from Philippines. Why did he look like he had never seen the world?
I heard that Freescale's technical director was coming, and people from the Suzhou side quickly came out to greet him. Tang Lihe was unable to come at any event, so he sent Thomas and Wei Renfa as representatives, and the specifications were already quite high.
Li Rui was in a good mood when he came to the plot chosen by Tang Lihe himself.
Judging from the location and level of the plot, Tang Lihe really attaches great importance to the mobile chip industry. Although the base has not been established, everyone can imagine that a magnificent and brilliant building will stand on this land in the future.
Even Thomas said in surprise: "I came here with my father to see this land a few years ago. The land that I decided to do was messy at that time, and it was smoothed like this in just a short time? Director Wei, your work
Good work!”
Wei Ren smiled and said, "This matter was supervised by General Manager Tang himself. Of course, we dare not neglect it. During the Chinese New Year, the engineering team did not rest and worked overtime day and night. Finally, the four-way and one-level land area of this land was completed in a week.
In addition, the buildings next to them were cleared out."
He was talking about several buildings built by a treasure island investor next to the plot. He was originally going to build a high-tech factory area, but later the capital chain broke and ran away, which was just left for Li Rui.
Li Rui explained the design of the R&D base to Paul, and Paul was amazed at the ears.
"This is all ours? Oh my God, it's ten times bigger than Freescale's factory in Austin!" Paul exclaimed, "Boss, I've been to many chip research and development bases all over the world. I can compare with this place, even one of them.
No! I have heard that you, Xia Guo people, are infrastructure madmen, it turns out to be true!"
"All we can do is infrastructure. First, make the environment better and provide you with the best R&D environment. As for whether it can be successful, it depends on your research." Li Rui said.
This is very real. No matter how big the R&D base is or how advanced the lithography machine is, it is just a hardware facility.
If you really want to create a chip, hardware facilities do not occupy the general factors, and talent and software are the key.
Before Paul came, he was just for three times his annual salary and 1% of his shares. Now, seeing such a large plot of land, he also had great ambitions.
In the past two years, he actually held his breath. He was obviously a mobile chip, but he was thrown into the on-board chip department. Although he was still paid the salary of a technical director, he always felt that his colleagues were pointing fingers behind his back.
During the internal meeting of Freescale, it also regarded the mobile chip department as a money-lossing product many times and tried every means to get rid of them.
During that time, Paul almost became depressed.
When Paul came to Huaguo, he was just to complete the task and actually had no hope for the future.
But Li Rui's generous and sincere touched him, and the plain in front of him also touched him.
He realized that this was a place where he could fully utilize his abilities, and if he still planned to go further in his career, there was no better choice than here!
With such an idea, Paul became much more active next.
During dinner that night, Paul asked some questions and ideas.
The first problem is investment.
Paul told Li Rui that the investment in mobile chips is like a bottomless pit.
Why Freescale gave up its mobile chip department is that it cannot see the future.
In this industry, whether it invests hundreds of millions or tens of billions of magnesium, it is like a waste of money. No one knows what to study before investing money. Even if you invest it, you don’t know if you can do it.
After researching it, even if it is done, I don’t know if it can be done.
Moreover, there are more competitors in this industry who are willing to spend money to invest, forming an early inverter development. If you invest 100 million, I will invest 200 million. If you develop dual cores, I will develop quad-core. If you consume less power, I will consume less power.
It has to be lower. If you have strong computing power, I must surpass you. So everyone is working hard to develop it. In the end, it is not about who has stronger technology and better products, but about whoever has the capital chain that cannot support it.
car.
The powerful Deyi, Infineon, Broadcom and Freescale, are all the same.
Li Rui has had an answer to this question.
"I will give you as much money as you want."
This answer means no answer. Many investors will brag about this kind of charity, but there will always be a day when the cowhide is broken.
Paul took it seriously because Li Rui did show his wealth and strength.
Acquiring Freescale for 50 million yuan may not be anything. It is definitely a big deal to buy no more than ten lithography machines around the world with 80 million yuan.
Of course, the most important thing is that Li Rui offered him three times his annual salary, which made Paul feel that the people of Xia are really too rich!
Paul's second question, technical support and raw materials.
Although Li Rui acquired Freescale's mobile chip division, including many technical patents in the past decade, Paul honestly told Li Rui that most of the patents are outdated, and even if they are not outdated, they are low-end products and lack
Market competitiveness.
If new technologies cannot be developed as soon as possible, the lithography machine may not be able to use it until it forms a spider web.
There are also raw materials. Many raw materials for making chips are monopoly and must be ordered from a special manufacturer. This is not a question of how much it costs, but whether the other party is willing to supply the goods.
If you can't get the raw material supply, the lithography machine can only be placed there to make spider webs.
Li Rui said: "I don't know much about technology. Please make a plan and demand list. Whether it is purchasing or developing it yourself, I hope to enter the actual testing stage as soon as possible. As for raw materials, please rest assured, I will definitely guarantee the source of goods.
supply.”
When Li Rui said this, he was not very confident.
He thought that he might have to find time to go around Magnesium Island and Europe.
Paul's third question is also the issue that Li Rui has always been most concerned about.
