The Light of Domestic Products: The whole world begs me to sell

Chapter 431 Are you teaching me to do things?

Two days later, the strategic department of Aramco contacted the Ministry of Commerce of Yanguo.

As soon as the news came back to China, the Ministry of Commerce, from the top to the ordinary employees, laughed and laughed and were very excited.

Everyone is celebrating this great victory. This is definitely a moment of historic victory for Yan Guo and A Mei for so many years!
soon.

The exciting news reached Hu Lai's ears.

Because the peace talks plan proposed by Ami this time involves the Phoenix Group's chip price war, so early the next morning, Chen Hai and the comrades from the Ministry of Commerce came to the Phoenix Industrial Park to find Hu to discuss the matter.

"Mr. Hu, Aramco's plan for the Phoenix Group is that they will release restrictions on all Phoenix products entering the North American market. Correspondingly, our domestic restrictions on Qualcomm and other chip companies will also be lifted."

"In addition, they also hope that companies such as Inet and Qualcomm will establish a 'chip price dialogue mechanism' with your company to jointly maintain the stability of chip market prices."

"In human terms, we hope to end the price war and stabilize chip prices."

After Chen Hai finished speaking, Hu Lai was not surprised.

Among all countries in the world, Yanguo's chip market accounts for nearly 40% of the market. With such a large market, it is no wonder that chip manufacturers such as Qualcomm and Inet are willing to give up.

Not to mention price wars.

Now the Phoenix Group sells a single chip under the one-stop IDM model, and the profit is only 10%. Companies like Qualcomm that only rely on the design side and other testing, packaging, manufacturing and other links rely on foundries have already approached the loss line.

The industries affiliated to Qualcomm's industrial chain have already reduced a lot of profits, and now the entire industrial chain is basically gritting their teeth.

In such a predicament, it is natural to be anxious.

"Chen Bureau, what do you mean?" Hu Lai asked back.

"The higher-ups held a meeting overnight last night, which means that considering the overall situation, they are still willing to negotiate peace with Ami in order to strive for more benefits."

After saying this sentence, Chen Hai glanced at Hu Lai, saw Hu Lai's expression was calm, and continued:

"Aramco and us are highly complementary economically, and they are our largest exporter. Many of our companies need their strong market consumption power."

"If the economic and trade exchanges between the two sides are normal, it will be of great benefit to our economy and our foreign trade enterprises."

"However, we still need to ask for your opinion and listen to your thoughts."

Hu Lai smiled slightly.

Anyway, Chen Hai's attitude made him feel respected.

He already had a plan for this matter in his heart, and he didn't write any ink. After sorting out his thoughts a little bit, he said:
"Ju Chen, I don't have any problem with letting go of restrictions on Qualcomm's entry into the Yanguo market. I will follow the decision of the higher authorities."

"However, forget about the 'chip price dialogue mechanism' they proposed, I will not agree."

Chen Hai seemed quite surprised.

The chip price war has indeed caused huge losses to Qualcomm and Inet, but the chip industry of Phoenix Group has also been greatly affected.

This is undoubtedly a situation in which one thousand enemies are killed and eight hundred are self-destructed.

"Mr. Hu... With all due respect, this time Ami proposed the establishment of a 'chip price dialogue mechanism'. I think it is a good opportunity for us."

"We can use this to take the initiative and gain a greater say in future chip pricing."

Hu Lai smiled when he heard the words, and shook his head after a while.

In the end, he looked at Chen Hai and said slowly:

"Chen Bureau, we don't need the so-called 'chip price dialogue mechanism', we don't need it."

"In the future, the price of chips will definitely be decided by us, and it will definitely be decided by us."

Chen Hai was taken aback for a moment, and his eyes became much more serious.

After a while, he exhaled slowly, looked at Hu and said:

"Mr. Hu, since you have made up your mind, I won't say more."

"It happens that the most important thing this time is whether to release Qualcomm's restrictions, and the 'chip price dialogue mechanism' is second. In this case, I will draw up the content of the negotiation according to your intention."

"it is good!"

……

After early communication, the first meeting between the two parties was finally scheduled in a week.

This time the talks between the two parties will be held online. Although Ami strongly requested that the on-site meeting be held in a third country, Yanguo completely ignored Ami's request.

The staff responsible for the liaison had only one word for this:

Love to talk, don't talk to roll.

In desperation, Ami finally had to accept the online meeting.

Just the contact before the meeting made Ami feel Yan Guo's tough attitude, which also made Amei's strategic team more convinced of Kane's judgment about Yan Guo.

Soon, the first online meeting between the two parties officially started.

Aramco sent company representatives headed by Liu Yixiu and Kane, as well as chip group and aero engine group.

As for Yan Guo, although the Phoenix Group was involved, Hu Lai had no intention of compromising on the price war at all, and simply asked Factory Manager Zhang to attend this important but not so important meeting on his behalf.

The video conference started, and the images of the members of the two delegations appeared on the screen.

The first person to speak was the representative of Yan Kingdom.

"Hello everyone, I won't say much about greetings, let's get straight to the topic of today's meeting."

"According to the previous communication between our two parties, we have reached a preliminary consensus on the main issues, and today's meeting is to further discuss on this basis."

"First, let's express our opinion."

"As for your proposal to release Qualcomm's sales restrictions in Yanguo, we can agree, but we need to add to your proposal of 'releasing the Phoenix Group to enter the North American market'."

"Not only the Phoenix Group, but also companies in Xiayan country also need to relax restrictions, and you need to ensure that you will no longer interfere with its normal operations in the North American market for unjustified reasons."

"The list is as follows: AVIC, Shufei Company, Jingjiawei..."

The representative of Yanguo read down the list one by one, and read the list of dozens of companies for more than two minutes.

As soon as he finished reading, there was a voice of disapproval from the other side of the screen.

"NO! We can't accept it."

"According to our previous communication, Qualcomm and Phoenix Group belong to the same conditions and mutually lift restrictions. The company you mentioned just now obviously does not belong to the scope of our discussion in this meeting."

"We can't accept such a request!"

"Hehe, Qualcomm and Phoenix Group belong to the same conditions. That's the previous consensus. It was in the past, and it is now!"

"Now, do as we say!"

The meeting was very intense from the very beginning, and Yan Kingdom's official attitude was obviously much tougher.

Immediately afterwards, the two sides began a fierce game on this issue, and Yan Guo, who took the absolute initiative, must compare the flaws in his performance and never give up.

Such a strong attitude made Ami a little overwhelmed.

After more than an hour, Ami compromised.

In order to lift Qualcomm's restrictions and to allow the peace talks to continue, they agreed to most of the company's restrictions proposed by Yan Guo.

After talking about this matter, the negotiating team on the other side of the screen was obviously a little depressed, and everyone's face was solemn.

On the other hand, Yan Country is in full swing.

"Very good. I am very glad that we can reach an agreement on the issue of the chip market. The next thing we will discuss is your proposal to establish a 'chip price dialogue mechanism'."

After the representative of Yanguo said this, the representatives of the chip group on the other side of the screen suddenly became energetic.

Strictly speaking, Qualcomm's problems involve more of Qualcomm and Qualcomm's affiliated industry chain; and the price war is undoubtedly a problem of Aramco's entire chip industry chain.

Once an agreement can be reached on the price war, Aramco's chip industry chain will undoubtedly breathe a sigh of relief, and at the same time, it will be able to better implement the Nemesis plan.

Even the analyst Kane couldn't help but straighten his back and raise his spirits.

For the "chip price dialogue mechanism" plan, the representative sent by Aramco is Inet President Pat.

He fiddled with the microphone lightly, then looked directly at the camera with a serious face, and then said:
"I am very happy that both of us can reach an agreement on the issue of Qualcomm, which at least shows one thing, we both have common interests."

"I believe that you have also noticed recently that the prices of various chips in the world are obviously in an abnormal price range. If things go on like this, it will not only have a huge impact on the interests of both of us, but also have an unpredictable impact on the global chip market. "

"So... I hope that both of us can sit down and have a good talk, and set up a 'chip price dialogue mechanism' together. This mechanism is similar to the OPEC (OPEC) organization in the oil industry. We jointly maintain the global chip price."

Although Pat has described the "chip price dialogue mechanism" in extremely embellished language, no matter how he avoids the core issue, anyone can hear another meaning hidden in his words.

That's right, that is:

I beg you, we have given up, don't fight a price war!

Now that peace talks have been made, let's quickly restore the price, so as not to affect our two parties' ability to make money.

All the participating delegates at Yanguo couldn't help showing a tacit smile. The conference delegate took the conversation and said softly:
"The main body of the 'chip price dialogue mechanism' proposed by you is the Phoenix Group. Today we also invited General Manager Zhang to participate in the meeting."

"Our country of Yan has always been adhering to a free economy and a market economy. Currently, the price of our chips is set by the Phoenix Group independently, so we will leave this issue to General Manager Zhang."

"General Manager Zhang..."

Amidst the speeches of the conference representatives, everyone's eyes turned to Director Zhang.

Director Zhang was not timid at all, with a faint smile on his face, his eyes revealed that the camera was looking directly at Pat, the president of Inet.

He said slowly:
"Mr. Pat, if I remember correctly, we met once when you came to Phoenix Group last time, and today is the second time."

Pat's face was a little embarrassed.

"The last time I came to the Phoenix Group, Mr. Pat came here to maintain the price of chips; we Mr. Hu agreed for your face and gave you a chance, but what about you?"

"Provoke us again and again! Do you really think that our Phoenix Group is a toilet? Block it if you want to block it, talk about peace if you want peace talk?!"

"so……"

"Let me tell you clearly that we have no interest in your proposed 'chip price dialogue mechanism'."

hiss--!
The screen did not expect that Zhang's attitude would be so tough on such an occasion. After a moment of surprise, Pat quickly reacted.

"Mr. Zhang, you have to believe in our sincerity this time."

"Now there are only us and your company at the top of the global chip industry chain. It will be of great benefit to us to establish the 'chip price dialogue mechanism' together!"

"Isn't it good for us to monopolize the world's chip industry together?"

Director Zhang snorted, his face already full of disdain.

He looked at the screen, as if covering everyone in his disdainful eyes, and said lightly:

"You, are you teaching me to do things?"
