Chapter 915 Bad News

Fang Zhuo returned to Shanghai on the last day of August.

It is logical that Yike mobile phones are selling well in China. Some waves did not reverberate big ripples. Instead, the company received enthusiastic calls from many channel vendors and inquiries from many friends about the Android system.

The company once again reiterated the open source of the Android system and the significance of the Pro Alliance, and welcomes more friends to join the Android camp.

Now there are two identified, one is Hanwang and the other is Meizu. They are expected to launch products equipped with Android system at the end of the year or the beginning of the year.

This may have more ramifications for companies on the sidelines.

Fang Zhuo is looking forward to the blossoming of the Android camp.

As for the competition with each other, from the foreseeable period of time, Yike has a strong advantage.

Before replying, Fang Zhuo also presided over a high-level meeting focusing on the future at Sina.

The news of Yike’s mobile phone launch is still in my ears, and the sales breakthrough of one million is already in front of me. Is the future of tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of users still far away?

This will definitely have a profound impact on the Internet industry.

Fang Zhuo has said similar things on different occasions, but this time at Sina, he held the board of directors first and then the executive meeting.

In the past few years, Fang Zhuo, who bought Sina in good faith, has shown his respect for Sina's management with practical actions, and rarely interferes with the actual operation of the company.

However, this time the battle was very serious, and it seemed to be setting the tone.

After the executive meeting, Fang Zhuo and CEO Wang Yan communicated even further, directly talking about "allin".

Today's Sina website is indeed behind Penguin Portal if evaluated from the perspective of traffic, but it is still the most professional in China in terms of content, especially in the field of news for ten years.

In particular, in August this year, with the help of "watching the Olympics and going to Sina", it has a new brilliance.

Fang Zhuo believes that the characteristics of Sina should not be wasted. We must look forward to the new development of the mobile Internet era in a timely manner, let Sina become the traffic depression of the next era, and let Sina become the most dazzling headline of the next generation.

Of course, this still requires the laying of a large number of intelligent hardware foundations, and it is also linked to the development of the Android camp next year.

Fang Zhuo had a lot of conversations with Wang Yan, making sure that this man could understand his intentions and determination.

At the beginning, when Fang Zhuo took over Sina, he had a crucial communication with Wang Yan.

At that time, he put forward such a statement-whether he wants to be a certain Sina CEO who is ordinary and frustrated, or a business strongman who solves Sina's profit dilemma and leads Sina to create brilliance?

Now is the time to fulfill the second half.

As long as Sina seizes the opportunity of Allin's mobile Internet, he, the CEO, will be someone that Sina and even Huaxia Internet must write more about.

The communication between the two was generally smooth.

Wang Yan only asked a question at the end: "Mr. Fang, do you actually think that Sina is not brilliant enough?"

Sina has a portal website that remains at the forefront, a vibrant social platform, and online games with a high reputation. It is a company that needs to add an s from the Internet Three Musketeers to bat.

Wang Yan is quite satisfied with the current Sina. He still remembers the time when he was struggling to earn advertising fees.

...

Fang Zhuo was very emotional: "Since I became the chairman of Sina, there has been such a saying that I don't care about Sina, that Sina is just my godson. This is complete nonsense. I treat Sina as my own!"

He added: "Brother Wang, you guys have done a good job, it's not that Sina is not brilliant enough, who wouldn't want their own son to be even more brilliant."

Wang Yan thinks it makes sense, Mr. Fang is definitely not the kind of person who is close or distant.

Sina's next step of development will take time, and strategic awareness is the first construction.

Fang Zhuo planned to have another communication with Wang Yan and others before the Spring Festival, and also look at their internal arrangements for Sina.

When people return to Shencheng, the dense itinerary will be placed immediately
In front of me.

This trip to the capital was more or less a holiday when it was connected to the Olympic Games. He had a few days to watch the games live, and his family basically witnessed the whole process of the first Olympic Games held in China, and the degree of investment was much greater.

In the first week of September, I need to fly to Xiangjiang. Morningstar Semiconductor will be listed soon. As a shareholder and a partner, Fang Zhuo gladly accepted the invitation. I am very happy to see that Morningstar has reached a new stage of development.

However, it is a little regrettable that MediaTek seems to have made progress in the field of TV chips, and the competitive pressure of MStar is further increasing.

And mobile phone chips, which MStar regards as an important opportunity for transformation...

Qualcomm has officially established a project internally, intending to create a low-end product.

Yike mobile phone mars2 has continued the best-selling momentum of the previous generation, which has consolidated the relationship between the iron (3 + 1) angle. The cooperation between Qualcomm, Yike and Bingxin is still a sweet period. Not to mention, Fang Zhuo also helped introduce the intentional change of the product Positioned customer Huawei.

Unlike Morningstar and MediaTek, which are struggling with chip development, Qualcomm is very confident and doesn't think it is difficult.

In view of such a situation, even if the two leaders of Morningstar and MediaTek met and communicated in person, Fang Zhuo could only plan to do business. It's not that he didn't give the opportunity, but the opportunity is indeed limited.

On the night of September 9, Fang Zhuo, who had been busy all day, was just about to relax when he got home when he suddenly received a call from an American golfer.

The golfer Austin is a friend introduced by Geithner of the New York Fed. Like Lu Peining's core staff, he is basically Geithner's spokesperson.

On the phone, Austin enthusiastically invited the party to practice golf again when he was free. He also talked about the increasingly disturbing atmosphere in the US financial market. Everyone seemed to have lost their direction.

But he also said that he is very confident in the determination of the current administrative stability situation, and an important company like Fanfang and Fangfang will definitely have a stable prospect.

When the phone call ended, Su Wei found Fang Zhuo thoughtful and asked, "What good thing made President Fang so dazed?"

"It's really a good thing, someone wants me to close the net." Fang Zhuosi thought, "However, I wonder if Geithner will get a good position by November, and he is starting to avoid suspicion. "

Xiao Ao avoided it relatively early, Lu Peining became a member of the mobile phone address book a few months ago.

But Austin is different. This is the first time the two have more formal communication.

...

Su Wei listened to the so-called network closing, and asked, "Is this too vague? Is it really a signal?"

"I talked to Geithner about the couple's affairs last time." Fang Zhuo shook his head slightly, "They know better than me what this golf club is for, but they are still very happy. Austin will not find me for no reason. It’s a tacit understanding.”

He added: "I asked Kong Yu to meet with Austin again in the United States and talk about it. I may not be able to elaborate on the phone."

The last time I talked with Geithner about the gossip that the United States took over the two rooms, it was partially denied at that time, but now, it is most likely a belated verification.

Two rooms will not be allowed to go bankrupt.

Correspondingly, when the two companies start to be taken over, the Lehman moment will not be far away.

Fang Zhuo went to the study to contact Kong Yu who was in New York, and mentioned the possible change of the situation simply and cryptically. This was a signal from a high-end customer, and the authenticity was quite high.

Kong Yu has been in charge of the operation of the MIGA Fund Department from last year to this year. At this time, there is a feeling of "finally coming to an end" in his tone. He also didn't say a lot on the phone, but said steadily that he would do his job well. .

Fang Zhuo put down the phone and thought about the next situation for a while.

Once Lehman falls, companies on the acquisition list can be asked one by one, just like Morningstar Semiconductor, which is about to encounter a series of bad news, and the attitude of attracting investment from Germany must be different. .

However, the ice core still needs to maintain a low-key development, as long as it can be low-key.

The thoughts in Fang Zhuo's mind kept coming and going, and finally he couldn't help but grab

He picked up his mobile phone and called Liang Mengsong, who had quietly joined Luzhou Bingxin.

"Dr. Liang..." Fang Zhuo paused after making the phone call, exchanging regular greetings, "How are you doing in Luzhou? Are you getting used to it?"

"Very good, there is nothing better than now." Liang Mengsong sounded very energetic in the middle of the night, "The foundation of the ice core fab has been laid very well. Except for Mr. Qiu's poor technical ability, everything else is good."

Fang Zhuo: "..."

He pretended not to have heard such an evaluation of the CEO as soon as he joined the job, and asked kindly: "Dr. Liang, if you have any problems in life and work, you can talk to me as soon as possible."

"Mr. Fang, you don't have to worry about life issues. Ice core has a good foundation, but there is still a long way to go with Taiwan Ji." Liang Mengsong was not very polite, "But since Cai Lixing was replaced by Taiwan Ji, they have been messing around. I heard that The manpower optimization plan that we had always insisted on has changed, and we have started layoffs in disguise, which is a great opportunity for us.”

The manpower priority plan is an internal policy of Taiji. It is a special management for the last 4% of employees in the performance appraisal to help them improve and improve the quality of human resources in the company. It is rare to actually lay off these people.

However, the Tai Ji led by Cai Lixing began to show different changes from the past.

Although Liang Mengsong has left Taiji, there is still the latest news.

He may be the one who cares most about the desk record in the ice core.

"Well... I also heard some rumors, and there will be some follow-up in this regard." Fang Zhuo pondered, he may be the second person in the ice core who cares about the station record, and he is more specific, just to see if there is any suitable one Talented people can get Luzhou.

...

"Very good, Mr. Fang, just dig me like you did in the past." Liang Mengsong was very happy.

Fang Zhuo: "..."

Dr. Liang was indeed straightforward.

But it's kind of a compliment.

Fang Zhuo can understand Dr. Liang's emotions within the two-year non-compete agreement, and I believe he can turn these into a steady stream of motivation.

It was getting dark at night, and Dr. Liang quickly said that he would continue to sort out some research, and he didn't mean to be polite.

Fang Zhuo let go of Dr. Liang, thinking that Bingxin could shorten the process distance by at least half a generation next year, and after 40n, the master-student pair might be able to work hard in the second half.

Eleven o'clock at night.

When Fang Zhuo got up to take a rest, Yu Hong suddenly called from the mobile phone in his pocket.

"It's probably bad news." Yu Hong's tone was serious, "5 minutes ago, Tai Ji and SMIC reached a settlement again. Mr. Zhang announced his resignation as SMIC's CEO. This may be one of the conditions for the settlement."

There is no sound on the phone.

Yu Hong waited for 20 seconds: "Hello, Mr. Fang?"

"It's probably good news to hear that it's not bad news from Yi Ke." Fang Zhuo let out a breath.

Yu Hong heard the taste of joy in bitterness, and said slowly: "I happen to be in Washington State, and I will help you keep an eye on the latest news. You probably need to use the phone now, so I won't talk about it."

"Hmm." Fang Zhuo didn't say much, and he wasn't even in the mood to ask about the latest market situation of Yike mars2 in the United States.

He squeezed the phone, found Mr. Zhang's number, pondered over and over again but never dialed it.

Two minutes later, the phone suddenly received a message from Mr. Zhang.

"I'll take the flight back to China later, see you in Shanghai."

Fang Zhuo only replied with one word: "Okay."
