The white Porsche Cayenne reduces the driving speed. Although Shi Lei talks with Bluetooth headphones, it will not affect the steering wheel with both hands. However, when the focus is on the content of the call, it may cause unsafe driving. Therefore, Shi Lei lowers the driving speed. Once an emergency accident occurs, it is convenient for reaction time to deal with it.
"Mu Shuang, are you saying that Amd Company still does not agree with the 50% accounting model?" Shi Lei asked about the specific situation.
Mu Shuang said with dissatisfaction: "Well, that's right, Amd Company disagrees with the profit of 55 cents, or even the June 4th tier, and they don't accept it. During today's negotiations, Amd Company came up with the final bottom line. They are only willing to give up the profit of 3 cents, and we also need to settle the payment once a week."
Shi Lei was slightly stunned and remembered something.
Amd Company achieved quite brilliant results in 2006. The acquisition of Eron processors achieved great success, with a market share of more than 25% and a maximum of 25.3%.
However, the good times didn't last long!
After Amd acquired the Atiti graphics processor company, indigestion occurred. The consequences of this sky-high merger and acquisition occurred, and Amd's cash flow had huge problems.
What's worse is that Intel's strong counterattack was made, and a large number of Intel's processors were constantly injecting new impacts on the market, causing Amd's share in the processor market to decline again and again.
After entering 2007, Amd entered a period of rapid decline, with the company's debt reaching US$2 billion and its market share fell by 15%. The stock price was hit hard by almost destruction, falling directly below US$10.
If something is already very bad, then there will definitely be even worse situations.
This is the case with amd company. Since 2007, after 2008, amd company has no improvement and has suffered losses for four quarters. In the whole year of 2009, it is still a loss! Loss! Loss!
In the fourth quarter of 2009, amd's debt reached US$3.9 billion, its market share almost fell below 10%, and its stock price fell between US$5 and US$6.
If it weren't for the restrictions of the anti-monopoly law that Intel would not be allowed to dominate, I'm afraid one of the two giants in the CPU industry. Amd would have collapsed long ago!
There are rumors in the market that when Amd was in the most difficult time, Intel invested in helping Amd Company and successfully became a shareholder of Amd Company.
As a result, Intel became the only overlord of the CPU market. After all, in later generations, Amd almost gave up on the field of high-end CPUs. Intel was dugu Qiubai in the field of high-end CPUs, and the price was completely set in the form of a one-man show. At the same time, the performance improvement of each generation of CPUs is basically only about 10%, which is completely a fool to users.
According to Mu Shuang, Amd Company requires Dream Entertainment to settle the payment once a week. This is obviously a problem with Amd Company's cash flow, trying to obtain cash flow support from Dream Entertainment's cooperation.
A crazy thought suddenly arose in Shi Lei's heart!
Acquisition of amd company!
That's right, it's just acquiring amd company!
In the next two years, Amd will be in an absolute state of weakness, and this state of weakness will not be fully recovered even until 2011.
Shi Lei hopes to seize this opportunity and take Amd into the company and directly allow Mirui Technology to gain the status of a world-class giant.
However, if you want to acquire Amd Company, you will need at least more than 5 billion US dollars to be able to hold more than 51% of Amd Company's shares and thus obtain absolute controlling stake in Amd Company.
Five billion US dollars, in the 2007 era, converted to Xia Guoyuan, was 40 billion yuan!
In a year, even Shi Lei did not have enough confidence to obtain 40 billion yuan. After all, this was 2007, not the turbulent era of stock market crashes in the 1990s.
Even in that era, Shi Lei was a hacker or a financial expert, how could he know and pay attention to the information about the stock market?
The omniscient and omnipotent is God. Even after being reborn, he cannot become the omniscient and omnipotent God. He is just a human being.
Crossfire can earn 5 billion yuan a year. According to the analysis of the situation where the Brave World focuses on the high-end market, if the number of users in the Brave World can reach twice that of Crossfire, it may not be a big problem to earn 40 billion yuan a year.
Analyzing the original historical situation, CrossFire will be released in 2008. In 2009, the number of people online at the same time exceeded one million, and then increased by one million every year. As of 2012, CrossFire's highest number of people online at the same time reached four million.
The annual revenue of CrossFire is 5 billion yuan in 2011, which means that the number of people online at the same time is about three million, and the number of active gamers is at least 10 million.
To achieve twice as many users as CrossFire, the number of active players is required at least 20 million.
This is almost an impossible task!
But Shi Lei still has to do his best to strive to win the Amd Company in 2008 and 2009 at the latest.
Only by owning your own processor manufacturing company can you create a central processor and graphics processor that truly conforms to the MiRi Technology system.
Moreover, it can also be made for supercomputers suitable for artificial intelligence!
Although there seems to be a lot of information about Amd Company, it actually flashed through Shi Lei's mind for a moment.
After confirming the plan to acquire Amd, how could Shi Lei still cooperate with Amd? If he cooperates with Amd, wouldn’t he take the initiative to help Amd solve the cash flow problem?
"Mu Shuang, notify Amd Company to suspend negotiations with Amd Company. If Amd Company wants to ask the reason, tell Amd Company directly that this is the decision of Mirui Technology's senior management. In addition, even if Amd Company is willing to accept a higher amount of accounting model, we must firmly reject Amd Company." Shi Lei expressed his plans.
This is a sinister decision that will greatly suppress Amd Company!
Although Amd Company has increased its sales by using the closed beta invitation code of the World of Braves in recent months, it is only a drop in the bucket and cannot save the general trend of Amd Company's sunset.
It has now entered April. About 90% of the closed-beta invitation codes in the World of Braves have appeared. In addition to natural purchases, no one has purchased large-scale purchases.
The agreement between Dream Entertainment and major manufacturers was completely achieved even in the final sales situation.
Once the support of the invitation code for the World of Braves, the central processor and Ati graphics processor of Amd will have another problem of sales plummeting.
Shi Lei sighed in his heart. I'm afraid this is why Intel and Nvidia sit firmly on Diaoyutai and do not contact Dream Entertainment. They know that Amd Company is in high debt and not nervous about any major changes.
‘As expected, Intel and Nvidia are both old foxes!’
Mu Shuang heard Shi Lei's answer and said in confusion: "Shi Lei, why? We will have a lot of profits in cooperation with Amd Company. If Amd Company can give up three layers of profits. According to our company's budget department, we have a profit of about 200 million to 400 million."
If this profit might be able to attract Shi Lei before acquiring Amd Company without planning to acquire Amd Company. But after making up his mind to acquire Amd Company, how could Shi Lei be tempted?
For most people, 400 million yuan is an astronomical number among astronomical numbers, but for Shi Lei, it is not an unattainable goal.
The world of bravery is destined to be prosperous, with just 400 million yuan, which is not really in Shi Lei's eyes!
It’s a pity that most people, in this era, do not understand the value and charm that online games can create.
Shi Lei did not intend to tell Mu Shuang about the acquisition of Amd Company. This is not because he did not trust Mu Shuang, but because he told Mu Shuang that it was meaningless.
Isn't this just a joke about a company that has just started for less than a year and is clamoring to acquire world-class high-tech companies?
If it only makes people laugh, Shi Lei would not care. But if it arouses Amd's vigilance or even attracts Intel's attention, it is definitely not the result that Shi Lei is willing to see.
Shi Lei doesn't want to be beaten up!
"Mu Shuang, the specific reasons are a bit complicated. When I have time, I will explain to you slowly." Shi Lei did not explain in detail.
Mu Shuang was very smart and heard that Shi Lei didn't want to tell her now. So she didn't ask much, "Okay, I understand. After lunch, I will notify Amd when the negotiations in the afternoon begin."
Shi Lei likes Mu Shuang's sensible style the most, "Then I'll trouble you, Mu Shuang."
"You're welcome, I also like the feeling of controlling the company. If you say it seriously, I should thank you. Thank you for providing me with an excellent platform." Mu Shuang said sincerely.
"Okay, OK, Mu Shuang, don't thank each other. Are you free tonight? Let's have supper together!" Shi Lei sent an invitation.
Mu Shuang refused, "No, I'll work overtime tonight, and the development of the World of Braves is about to be completed. You, the boss of the hand, are very relaxed, but the relevant review work is not easy at all."
In the strange country of Xia, even if the world of brave people is famous, and to a certain extent, the world of brave people represents the advanced technology of Xia, if the process of submitting for review is not done properly, it may still be stuck.
Shi Lei's heart skipped a beat. If the higher-level personnel of Xie Nanfeng want to get stuck in the world of bravery, I wonder if there is this possibility?
