Chapter 473 Merger

Just after Huang Xiuyuan visited the Sun Valley Industrial Park, it was also the third day after the launch of the new product of Dragon Totem.

Datang Group Headquarters.

A commercial negotiation officially kicked off the full attack of textile semiconductors to lithography semiconductors.

MediaTek Chairman Cai Mingjie and General Manager Xie Changhua sat in the conference room. The ample air conditioning and air conditioning made them feel a little chill.

Dou Jianfang, the deputy general manager of Datang, was opposite the two of them.

"Mr. Cai, let's tell the truth! The price of your company is too high. The 51% stake, 8 billion Huayuan, is obviously not in line with the actual value."

Cai Mingjie frowned slightly, but he had no confidence: "Mr. Dou, this price is already very cheap."

MediaTek's 51% 8 billion Huayuan looks really worth it. After all, MediaTek's market value at its peak was once approaching 200 billion Huayuan.

Unfortunately, the phoenix fell into the water is not as good as a chicken. After suffering continuous impact, MediaTek's value has long been much worse than before. Its current market value is less than 18 billion Huayuan.

Moreover, as time goes by, more and more domestic semiconductor design companies are rising, and are fully impacting the remaining market of MediaTek.

Xie Changhua thought for a while and tentatively said, "Mr. Dou, how much do you think is suitable?"

"2 billion 67%. " Dou Jianfang said calmly.

"What?" Cai Mingjie's face darkened. Obviously, he felt unacceptable to the price.

But Dou Jianfang, who was sitting firmly on Diaoyutai, said carelessly: "If your company thinks it is not suitable, then we won't force it. After all, the forced melon is not sweet."

It's a damn thing, but it's so hard that it's not sweet? Cai Mingjie cursed in his heart, but he still calmed down quickly.

Sometimes under the general trend, I really can’t help myself.

MediaTek's situation is very bad at this time. Because of their chip design, they tend to be lithographic semiconductors. However, the current situation in the lithographic semiconductor camp is a complete decline.

As for the transformation into textile semiconductors, the technological route in the industry cannot be achieved by just a slap in the head.

In order to develop the textile semiconductor system, the Suiren Group took out the courage to take all the gambles, coupled with various layouts and technical reserves, so it forced the textile semiconductor system to be launched.

MediaTek is just a company, and the area is very embarrassing. The Textile Semiconductor Alliance has been suppressing the semiconductor industry in Nanbo Bay, so naturally it will not authorize the other party to use its own patents.

The semiconductor design field is very patent-oriented and has not mastered the patent. Once you enter the design field of textile semiconductors, you will not mention whether there is any order. Patent authorization alone is enough to make MediaTek unable to move forward.

Obviously, Datang is determined to be MediaTek. If MediaTek does not agree to the acquisition plan, then Datang will not lose anything, and at most it will develop slowly.

Datang plans to merge MediaTek because it lacks chip design and hopes to acquire the other party's chip design capabilities by merger MediaTek.

It’s like ZTE is eyeing UMC, Unigroup also likes Hynix, and Huawei has private negotiations with TSMC.

Obviously, all the textile companies have already shown their fangs and are preparing to gradually merge lithography semiconductors to absorb the other party's technology and complete the expansion of their own industrial chain.

The all-round industrial chain of Dragon Totem is all-round from top to bottom. It not only lowers the overall cost, but also ensures that it is invincible. Dragon Totem and Samsung are role models for a number of domestic semiconductor companies.

Of course, this is the ambition of large companies.

It is more appropriate for small and medium-sized enterprises to play small links in the professional field. After all, the entire industrial chain requires a huge amount of funds and also tests internal coordination capabilities.

MediaTek, which is now in crisis, urgently needs to obtain admission tickets to textile semiconductors, which is also the origin of this negotiation.

In fact, it is not the first time the two sides have negotiated. They negotiated separately in August and October last year.

However, the price of Datang is lower and lower again and again, MediaTek takes the initiative to come to the door again and again. At the beginning, Cai Mingjie also proposed a plan to swap shares, but unfortunately his wishful thinking was disrupted little by little with the sudden change in the market.

Now Cai Mingjie no longer dares to ask for any exchange of shares, but only wants the Tang Dynasty to give him a way out.

The status of both parties is often unequal in this kind of business negotiation, just like when domestic foreign investment was introduced, it was basically a bargain price, and even had to pay in reverse.

Today, Nanbowan semiconductor companies are facing this helpless situation.

Since the second half of last year, among the semiconductor companies in Nanbo Bay, many of the small and medium-sized enterprises have been merged by domestic companies, and talents have been lost even more crazily.

Cai Mingjie and general manager Xie Changhua discussed for a while, and both of them understood that 2 billion 67% of the shares were equivalent to free gifts. No problem was that they had no room for bargaining.

The longer the time goes on, the lower the value of MediaTek will be, the greater their losses will be. Once the company goes bankrupt, the losses will be even greater.

Cai Mingjie is still making the final struggle: "Mr. Dou, how about 5 billion 60%?"

"Absolute holding is the bottom line, 2.3 billion 67%.

Both parties grind their teeth for a long time, and Cai Mingjie and Xie Changhua used the noon time to discuss with other shareholders for more than an hour.

Finally, around 5 pm, the two sides reached an agreement.

Datang acquired 67% of MediaTek's shares for 2.7 billion yuan. Datang absolutely controlled MediaTek. As soon as the memorandum of cooperation was signed, both parties issued an announcement.

Although this news has caused a lot of opposition among the people in Nanbo Bay, it is useless to make a fuss.

Even if a special bill can be passed to prevent this transaction, no force is willing to come out and be the first to be a leader.

Because of the current situation, if you don’t agree to the acquisition, MediaTek will sooner or later be over. At that time, the Western capital that invests in MediaTek will suffer even more losses.

Under this strange calm, the Tang Dynasty successfully merged with MediaTek, which officially kicked off.

Major domestic semiconductor companies have issued intensive acquisition offers to semiconductor companies in Nanbowan, Goryeo and Japan.

The three largest acquisition offers are Huawei’s acquisition of TSMC, China Samsung and Long Totem acquire Goryeo Samsung, and Unigroup acquire Tokyo Electronics and Hynix.

Although I don’t know how many companies will be acquired in the end, the offensive of textile semiconductors has made lithography semiconductors retreat step by step.

Intel, GF and Texas Instruments can only hide in North America, catching up while trying to win over Xizhou semiconductor companies.

Xizhou Semiconductor also understands the truth that the dead are dead. Once the Silicon Valley system falls, the textile semiconductor alliance that loses checks and balances will definitely blow up Xizhou Semiconductor Industry with one punch.

In fact, the Xizhou Alliance did not expect that the Silicon Valley would lose so quickly, which caught them off guard.

Originally, Xizhou Semiconductor companies planned to sit around the mountain and watch the tiger fight and secretly develop their own independent semiconductor industry. However, everything became too fast. Xizhou Semiconductor, which reacted very slowly, felt that when they woke up, the weather changed.

Now they have to maintain the Silicon Valley system. They have done all the work, but they still can't stop the general trend from being crushed.

On the other hand, the wave of semiconductor industry mergers in Northeast Asia is also becoming more and more intense.
