Coquettish Rebirth

After telling Samsung the quotation, Jia Hongjian also gave the other party a time to think, and he himself returned to the hotel.But after returning to the hotel, Jia Hongjian didn't sleep in the hotel or look for some strange massage items. Instead, he sneaked out of the hotel by himself, preparing to go to other places.He took a taxi and came to No. 20, Yeouido-dong, Yeongdeungpo District, Seoul, a place called Lexi Jinxing Group.

As soon as Jia Hongjian stepped into the door of the Lexi Jinxing Club, he saw a middle-aged man in his 40s waiting for someone with a group of middle-aged people and young people in the lobby.As soon as they saw Jia Hongjian appearing, a group of people came forward immediately, "Mr. Jia Hongjian? Hello, I am Gu Benling, the executive director of LG Group, on behalf of the president of the headquarters, Gu Benmao, welcome Your arrival!"

What, this Lexi Jinxing Club is actually LG?That's right!This lg was renamed as lg in 95. This is the name changed for internationalization. In the past, this lg was composed of two parts, a Jinxing club specializing in the sale of electrical products, with "Golden Star" as its trademark, There is also Lexishe, which started out as a chemical industry and uses "Lexi" as its trademark!The name of the group is the combination of the two clubs - Lexi Jinxing, which is the abbreviation of the two words "lucky Jinxing" ar in Korean!

This lg was the first electronics company in South Korea in 58, and it was the same as Daewoo Group in the 70s.Taking advantage of Park Chung Hee's rule, they extended their business tentacles to various heavy industries. Now in 95, in order to be more internationalized, they have become the first Korean chaebol to adopt a full English name!

But why did a chaebol like LG welcome Jia Hongjian so respectfully?It's very simple, because Jia Hongjian is rich!It turned out that when Jia Hongjian called his parents the day before to ask for 10 billion US dollars in funds, he suddenly remembered that around 99 in history, LG had a big deal with Philips.At that time, Jia Hongjian seemed to be going to practice in the Philips China branch, so I remember this very clearly-Philips spent 15 billion US dollars to acquire 50% of the shares of LG's LCD business unit, and then established a company called lg Philips joint venture!

At that time, Jia Hongjian thought about it. Since Philips can acquire 15% of the shares of LG's LCD business department for US$50 billion, even if Jia Hongjian and the others do not have the identity of Philips, they can buy a company with a price higher than Samsung's for US$10 billion. Better conditions, that's not a problem?So at that time, Jia Hongjian asked his family to send a fax to LG to ask if the other party had a production line for the second-generation TFT LCD screen.

This LG originally entered the tft industry at about the same time as Samsung. They entered the TFT industry in 87. In 95, the p2 factory was built and put into operation, which is the so-called second-generation factory!Now it is basically the second largest LCD panel provider after Samsung in South Korea!Since the opponent has this strength.Then why didn't Jia Hongjian come to shop around?Why do you have to hang yourself on Samsung?What?Samsung's Li Jianxi took the initiative to tell Jia Hongjian a secret?That was what he said on his own initiative, not what Jia Hongjian begged him to say!And he said that he also wanted to benefit from Jia Hongjian. This was a business, so why did Jia Hongjian act like he was not married?

After meeting with this Gu Benling from LG, a group of people got on the elevator, and soon came to the office of the president of LG's headquarters. Inside, there was a person who looked 5 points like Gu Benling, who was a little older Little man. "This is the president of our company, Gu Benmao." Gu Benling introduced.It sounds like both of them have the last name Gu.And they are all from the same generation. Could it be that these two are brothers?Just when Jia Hongjian was curious, he saw that Ben Mao walked up to shake hands with Jia Hongjian enthusiastically, and then said in English: "Welcome Mr. Jia to our lg, I didn't expect Mr. Jia to be so young! Really young and promising!"

Whoops!Comparing the president of LG with the president of Samsung, it is obviously not so airy, and it is obvious that he will be a lot of people!But even if the other party knows how to behave like this.But Jia Hongjian still won't get carried away easily!At this time, Jia Hongjian shook hands with the other party very gracefully on the surface, and then began to ask: "President Gu, can you introduce to me the history of your company's tft research and development?" "No problem, our company started in 87 Started to enter the tft LCD panel industry. Then lost money for 8 consecutive years, with an annual loss of more than 5000 million US dollars. After the 95nd generation production line was put into production in 2, it finally started to turn losses into profits..."

Yo?It turns out that LG's LCD business is also so bumpy?It seems that if a developing country wants to enter this industry, it must first endure losses!Just when Jia Hongjian was surprised, after hearing Gu Benmao think for a while, he said frankly: "I am dissatisfied with Mr. Jia. The problem with our first-generation line is the same as that of many Japanese manufacturers. We all used the equipment and factory buildings that used to produce solar panels to produce TFT screens. The result was that the yield rate was extremely low, only 10%! Later, many manufacturers in Japan couldn't stand it anymore, and Toshiba and Sharp found it. The Applied Materials Company of the United States asked them to help solve the problem. As a result, the Applied Materials Company of the United States, the world's largest supplier of semiconductor production equipment, came to study for several months and finally found the reason. It turned out to be the workshop and equipment for the production of solar panels. Although it is called a dust-free workshop, the solar panel itself is not sensitive to a small amount of dust, so it is basically enough. However, the tft LCD panel, a product that no one has produced before, is particularly sensitive to dust. In semiconductor production, if a piece of dust falls on the panel, several of the hundreds of chips in a wafer may be defective, and those few can be eliminated. But the LCD panel is different, according to the current standard If there are 100 dead pixels in 5 million pixels, then this screen will be scrapped, and it will be a substandard product!"

"Later, Applied Materials sent their engineers to the production lines of those two companies. After several months of research, they found the problem. They planned to use chemical vapor deposition to remove dust. After two years of research and development, They finally developed the AKT-1600 type of CVD chemical vapor deposition equipment, claiming that it can increase the yield rate from 10% to 90%! After 94, the second-generation line that was first put into production in Japan began to apply this Of course, our lg company's production line will also use this kind of equipment...but unfortunately, Mr. Jia, because of the high-tech export ban in the United States, we can't export this cvd equipment to you...but please Rest assured, our lg company will try our best to use our own ability to improve the yield rate for your company..."

wipe!It turns out that there are still these twists and turns?Sure enough, if the U.S. high-tech export ban is added, it is true that after the introduction of the first-generation line in China, it is easy to lead to a low yield rate!And there is no way to solve it!snort!As expected, there are still some things that Samsung has not said!I made it seem like I said everything before, so there are still some things hidden here!If it wasn't for Jia Hongjian's shopping around, maybe he would really have to sign the contract in the future to know these things from Samsung!Maybe at that time Samsung will take the contract and say, either you tear up the contract and lose money, or use the method Samsung prepared for you to remove the dust... These old foxes really have every good thing!

After thinking for a while, Jia Hongjian put all the emotions in his mind aside, looked at LG's president Gu Benmao with a smile and asked: "Then how does President Gu think we can cooperate? "Ju Benmao smiled very heartily at this time, "As long as our company is not allowed to smuggle American CVD chemical vapor deposition equipment to you, we can cooperate in any way! Your company can also buy the first-generation line that our company has eliminated. If you want to buy our second-generation line without cvd, you can also have a joint venture between the two parties, or you can sell certain technical materials to us!"

Gu Benmao is now the grand opening guest!Their lg is not as rich as Samsung, and it has been losing money for 8 consecutive years, which is not a small loss. It is rare to have a big money, so why not cooperate quickly?Anyway, if you have made the bottom line clear, let the other party choose by themselves, anyway, try to make back the previous losses as much as possible!

Jia Hongjian thought for a while, and finally asked: "President Gu, if your company provides your own CVD chemical vapor deposition equipment, how will the effect be?" Well, we can say that among the things your company can buy, ours is definitely the best! We cannot guarantee a 90% good product rate, but we can still guarantee more than 70%! Even if your company is willing, we will Some engineers from our company's CVD chemical vapor deposition department can be stationed in your company to solve problems for your company with zero time difference!"

"Well, not bad, but I have a request, that is, if your company gives us the 2nd generation line, it needs to remove the restriction of the best economical cutting, and if necessary, it may break through the restriction to manufacture some large panels..." Jia Hongjian said with a smile on his face. Said with a smile.Gu Benmao was stunned when he heard this, but soon he laughed, "No problem!" Originally, why did he care so much about this kind of thing, Jia Hongjian was willing to cut it uneconomically? That was Jia Hongjian It has nothing to do with him, Gu Benmao!

Now, Jia Hongjian himself is calculating that if the size of the first-generation line is 300400, the diagonal of the entire LCD screen is about 500 mm, which can be claimed to be a 20-inch screen, while the panel size of the second-generation line 370470 , the direct calculation of the diagonal is the inch, which is a 24-inch screen!How about cutting it a little bit like this, making it into a 21-inch screen and selling it to Changhong, and then Changhong made it into an LCD TV and sold it to Iron Boss?
