Chapter 598 [Who is the tool person? 】
When Pete Venick's special plane arrived in China, it was just evening local time. I learned about it just after leaving the terminal that the shares of Asml Company's stocks plummeted when they opened.
The stock price is leaking wildly, and the plunge is expected by Pete Winick. Such a huge change has occurred in the industry, and market investors are obviously pessimistic about the future of Asml.
After Pete Venic arrived in China, he first checked into a hotel. He couldn't help but get up in the middle of the night to look at the US stock market. The trading day had already ended.
Asml's stock price plummeted 32.73%, evaporating US$29.9 billion on the same day, and the total after-hours trading market value was only US$61.5 billion.
In just two days, the market value of Asml Company was cut by half. What's the word "miserable".
Even though Pete Venic was prepared, when he saw this trend, when he thought of the shame coming here, he almost felt unstable and was completely in a bad mood.
Sometimes, people are just being mean to be inferior. Pete Venick knows that it will be even more angry when looking at the stock price, but he just can't help but want to go and find abuse if he is self-harm.
...
The next day.
Technology Complex Building.
"Xiaona, test the software environment." Luo Sheng is programming and designing the programming powered exoskeleton operating system, and is also conducting a high-level video conference inside the Costa del Sur.
"Mr. Luo, we have received the news that the head of Asml came to China in a low-key manner. He got off the plane last night and sent someone to the company today to meet you and have a talk."
Yao Jianhong said so.
The company's core executives already knew about this. At this moment, a manager at the meeting said happily: "Haha, the purple star lithography machine here just exposed, and Pete Venic flew over the next day. This reaction was too real and too fast."
The others laughed when they heard this. No matter how they looked, Asml's move seemed a little embarrassed.
Another person also continued: "Asml's market value was cut in half for two days, and anyone else was anxious. It was unexpected that Pete Venick came so quickly, but it was reasonable."
Everyone present nodded again to agree, and it was very pleasant.
Asml is today too.
Luo Sheng was stunned for a while when he heard this. After Yao Jianhong said this, he realized this. Recently, Lao Yao was dealing with these problems, while he himself was engaged in development.
At this moment, Luo Sheng's brain flashed through various possibilities quickly, and his thinking was as quick as ever. But after a moment, he said with a smile: "Haha, it's time to come, but it's time to come too fast and too direct."
When everyone heard Luo Sheng’s words, they couldn’t help but be curious.
"Mr. Luo, what you mean is..."
Luo Sheng looked at the simulation environment of the power exoskeleton system, and said calmly: "Peter Venic looked embarrassed when he ran in such a hurry, but it was also true. However, there are some problems here worth pondering. It is certain that Asml wants to talk about, but whether the final result can be decided is different."
Yao Jianhong said concisely: "Mr. Luo means that the role of sia in it cannot be ignored."
Luo Sheng nodded and said, "Yes, asml came to me alone to talk to me to make a humiliation. He no longer had the bargaining chips I valued. He must know this, but he came so quickly and directly. This is intriguing. Can I suspect that there are conflicts and differences within them?"
Everyone was thinking.
Luo Sheng continued to analyze: "Since Pete Winick knows that coming to me alone is a humiliation, when a person knows that he will be humiliated and still bit the bullet, besides the imminent crisis, he must have found a feasible breakthrough."
An executive at the meeting subconsciously said, "Breakthrough?"
Luo Sheng smiled indifferently and said slowly: "After thinking about it, I'm likely to judge that this is just a trick to kill people by using a knife. I treat me as a tool. Peter Venick wanted to raise his value in Sia by negotiating with me. It was a helpless move. Normal business competition Asml will definitely go bankrupt within three years."
"Mr. Luo, what do you mean is Asml to disrupt the situation?"
Luo Sheng nodded: "It is very possible that if Asml really opens this hole, it will be difficult for Sia to do. The internal logic here, as long as you understand what Sia is most afraid of in the current situation, it will not be difficult to get the result. Sia is afraid that internal contradictions will further intensify, and the industry is facing a major reshuffle. The first problem that all parties think of is how to seek self-protection in the new turmoil and continue to maintain their advantages. Asml has begun to take action for this, but in Sia's eyes, he will open a very bad head and will definitely stop it."
It makes sense.
Everyone nodded secretly. From Sia's standpoint, Asml must not betrayal, the impact is too bad. Once other international members see that this is a road, they will fly up. Sia is still afraid that Luo Sheng and the Costa delle will add fuel to the fire. For example, Samsung Electronics has already obtained a stable source of profit on the Costa delle, and now it cannot be decoupled from the other party.
Whether to lose or make a profit, everyone has their own plans in their minds.
"Mr. Luo, should you meet and talk to Pete Venick?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Sheng rejected it without hesitation: "No, why do he want to use me as a tool to see him? If asml offends, he will offend him. Now it is dispensable to me."
Everyone was silent for a moment, and Yao Jianhong immediately said, "If you don't see me, wouldn't this be a situation that Sia would be happy to see? Other manufacturers who intend to ease their relationship and want to surrender will see our attitude towards Asml, wouldn't they push them to Sia and make them more determined?"
The others at the meeting echoed and left Pete Venick alone. Although it was really exciting and encouraging, this would also allow people who were in a swaying position to vote with their feet, such as Samsung Electronics, Kuaiji Electric, and Shinyue Chemical.
After all, it is really humiliating and thankless, who can do it?
The key is that 60% of the technical links of its entire semiconductor industry chain have not been opened. The outside world does not know this, but it cannot deceive itself. Once Sia also knows that it is this, the situation may change dramatically again, and the Costa delle will fall into a passive situation.
Luo Sheng smiled and said, "I just said that I would not see you as a tool person, but I didn't say that I would not see you as a tool person."
Everyone was stunned for a while, and when they listened at the first time, they felt that saying something was equivalent to not saying anything, but when they carefully looked at it, they meant two completely opposite meanings, and Chinese culture was profound and profound.
"Boss, don't keep it aside. What are you going to deal with this?"
"Yes, if you see, what are the conditions?"
Luo Sheng put away his smile and said, "Peter Venick wants to kill people with a knife. I will use the trick to follow his strategy and treat him as a knife. Who is the tool man?"
Yao Jianhong said curiously: "How do you say this?"
Luo Sheng: "I don't see you, asml still has to find other ways out. Then he will definitely find other domestic manufacturers and strive for customer partners. I can see how many people in China are Erwuzi. Take this opportunity to wash the team, and at least there must be a little black notebook to remember."
Everyone was shocked. Can this be useful?
yes!
The Zixing lithography machine was exposed, but it also had to queue up to buy it. There is no doubt that Xiongxin Electronics is the first to supply it first. Even so, it will have to wait until one or two years later, let alone other manufacturers. Asml will definitely see the supply problems.
It's so insidious.
Everyone secretly commented on the boss. They thought they had guessed the third floor of the boss, but they didn't expect that the boss was on the fourth floor, but E Luo Sheng was actually on the fifth floor.
"After talking about what I don't see, let's talk about what I'm going to say." Luo Sheng explained in an orderly manner: "We talk about Peter Venick more. It's not because of SIA. This must be clear, but because of what? The European market, the collapse of Asml will also affect the interests of Germany's manufacturing industry. Germany is the core of the euro zone and has lost the North American market. The European market is the most important developed country market on my Costa à la Côte d'Azur."
"So, if our interest demands are connected with the other party's interest demands, we can talk. Using this as a negotiation condition will not affect my Costa à la Côte d'Azur's business in the European market. Don't mess with me. I can keep asml alive and continue to live and nourish, and even continue to deepen cooperation and continue to deepen business cooperation with the entire Europe. This can be discussed. For other things, it is not enough to talk about the entire integrated circuit structure to reshuffle an asml. Only old man John from Sia is qualified to come and talk to me."
So that's it. After hearing this, everyone suddenly realized it and sighed secretly. They still couldn't keep up with the big boss's pattern.
Even the European business was considered by the way. The outside world had never thought about this issue and focused on North America.
Only then did I remember that Europeans have been unable to stand the huge amount of money made by foreign technology companies recently. Silicon Valley technology giants such as Google, Amazon, and Microsoft have been repeatedly fined hugely from Europe and the United States.
With this situation, Costa del Azure and Blue Star Technology will be hit sooner or later. The reason why they did not take action is that both companies are investing in Europe on a large scale, contributing thousands of jobs, and both sides are still in good condition.
He didn't find a good opportunity to start, but Luo Sheng wouldn't think that these foreigners would be really grateful. Maybe they were playing "scientific pig farming" to fatten you and then kill you.
At this time, don’t take too much chips into your arms, and you won’t notify you if someone kills you.
The saying that harmony brings wealth is contrary to reality itself. The so-called harmony brings wealth is based on checks and balances between the two parties. Once the balance is unbalanced, it will be a promotion to make money, so as to destroy the other party and make a fortune.
Plunder is their essence.
Luo Sheng added: "By the way, not only will we not see you, but we have to pour some oil. A senior executive on the Costa à who did not want to reveal his name will bring the news to the media, and try to amplify the news that Pete Venick came to ask for a meeting and was rejected... I hope Pete doesn't have a mentality."
Yao Jianhong said happily: "This move is really harmful, killing people to kill their hearts."
Luo Sheng smiled and said, "The loss is a bit damaged, but this is part of the plan. You should use asml as a pot of refried pork, stir-fry it back and forth to defeat his confidence. Don't leave him any fantasies. The discussion will be much smoother."
In Luo Sheng's eyes, the value that Asml can still exist is necessary, and the only European business market remains.
...
An hour later, in a room at the newly opened Hilton Hotel in Sioux City.
Pete Venick's secretary knocked in.
"Boss, the Costa delves back."
Hearing this, Pete Venic, who was smoking in silence, snatched out the cigarette butts, immediately looked at the secretary and said, "When will we meet? Where is the location?"
Chapter completed!
