Chapter 598: [Who is the toolman in the end? 】
When Pete Wernicke's plane flew to China, it was evening at local time, and just after he left the terminal, he heard a news that the stock of US stock Nasdaq plunged when the market opened.
The stock price is endless, the plunge is in the expectation of Pete Wernicke, such a huge change in the industry, market investors are clearly pessimistic about the future of ASML.
After Pete Wernicke arrived in China, he first checked into the hotel. Most of the night, he couldn't help but looked at the US stock market. The trading day was closed.
ASML's stock price plunged by 32.73%, evaporating $ 29.9 billion that day, and the total market value of after-market transactions was only $ 61.5 billion.
In only two days, the market value of ASML was cut in half. What a miserable word.
Pete Wernicke was prepared in his heart. When he saw this trend, he thought that he would come here in shame at the moment, and he was almost in an unstable state of mind. The whole person was bad.
Sometimes, people are guilty of themselves, and Pete Winnick knew that looking at the stock price would make him more angry, but he couldn't help but want to look for abuse in order to self-harm.
...
The next day.
Technology complex building.
"Xiao Na, test the software environment." Luo Sheng is programming and designing a dynamic exoskeleton operating system, and is also conducting a high-level video conference inside the C?te d'Azur.
"Mr. Luo, we received the news that the head of ASML came to China in a low-key manner. I got off the plane last night and sent someone to the company today to want to meet you and talk about it."
Yao Jianhong said so.
The company's core executives already knew about this matter, and one of the managers present at the moment said happily: "Haha, here the Purple Star lithography machine has just been exposed, and Pete Wernicke flew over the next day. This reaction is too real. , Too quickly. "
Everyone laughed when they heard it, and ASML looked awkward in any way.
Another also said: "The market value of ASML has been cut for two days. It is anxious for anyone else to change. It is unexpected to ask me to say that Pete Wernicke is not here. It is unexpected to come so fast, but it is reasonable. . "
Everyone at the meeting nodded again and agreed, it was very dark.
ASML also has today.
Luo Sheng couldn't help but froze for a while. Yao Jianhong said that he only knew about this matter. Recently, it was Lao Yao who was dealing with these problems, but he himself was engaged in development.
At this moment, Luo Sheng's brain flashed through all possibilities quickly. His thinking was as agile as ever, but for a moment it seemed like a non-smiling smile: "Oh, it should be coming, but it should be too fast and too direct. "
When everyone heard what Luo Sheng said, they couldn't help but wonder.
"Mr. Luo, you mean ..."
Luo Sheng said calmly while looking at the simulation environment of the dynamic exoskeleton system: "Pete Wernicke seems to be embarrassed to run in such a hurry, but this is also true, but there are some problems in it that are worth scrutinizing. ASML wants to talk about this. Certainly, but whether or not the final result can be determined is two different things. "
Yao Jianhong said concisely: "General Manager Luo means that we cannot ignore the role of SIA in it."
Luo Sheng nodded and said: "Yes, ASML came to me alone to talk about self-insult. He no longer has the chips I value. He certainly knows this, but he is here, so fast and so direct. This is intriguing. Can I doubt that there are contradictions and differences within them? "
Everyone thought about it.
Luo Sheng continued to analyze: "Since Pete Wernicke knows to come to me alone for self-inflicted humiliation, when a person knows that he will be humiliated and puts on his scalp, in addition to the imminent crisis, it must have found a feasible Breakthrough. "
An executive at the meeting subconsciously said: "A breakthrough?"
Luo Sheng smiled indifferently and said slowly: "Thinking about it, I have a high probability to judge that this is a murderous tactic by borrowing a knife. Treat me as a tool. Pete Wnick wants to raise himself in SIA by negotiating with me. The value is a helpless move, and normal commercial competition ASML will definitely go bankrupt within three years. "
"Mr. Luo, do you mean that ASML is here to disrupt?"
Luo Sheng nodded: "It is very likely that ASML really opened this mouth, and SIA will be difficult to do. The internal logic here, as long as you understand what SIA is most afraid of in the current situation, it is not difficult to reach a result. SIA is afraid that internal conflicts will intensify further. The first problem that the industry faces is that all parties involved in the major reshuffle are how to seek self-insurance and continue to maintain their advantages in the new turmoil. ASML has begun to take action for this, but in the eyes of SIA He will have a very bad head and will definitely stop it. "
Makes sense.
Everyone nodded secretly, from the standpoint of SIA, ASML must not betrayed, the impact is too bad, once other international members see this is a road, then the small nine or nine dozen is flying, SIA is still afraid of Luo Sheng and the C?te d'Azur further fueled the fire. For example, where Samsung Electronics had originally obtained a stable source of profits on the C?te d'Azur, it is even more impossible to decouple it from the other side.
Whether it is a loss or a profit, everyone has their own calculations.
"Mr. Luo, would you like to meet with Pete Wernick?"
After hearing this, Luo Sheng vetoed without hesitation: "No, why does he want to use me as a toolman to see him? ASML is offended and offended, now it is optional for me."
Everyone was silent for a moment, Yao Jianhong said immediately: "If you don't see it, is this not the situation that SIA is happy to see? Other manufacturers who want to ease the relationship and want to convince the soft manufacturers to see our attitude towards ASML, don't they push them to the side of SIA, Make them more determined? "
The other people at the meeting joined together to leave Pete Wernicke aired, although it was indeed very refreshing and uplifting, but this would also allow people who are inherently international partners such as Samsung Electronics, Sekisui, Shin-Etsu Chemical and others, and who were in swings to vote Too.
After all, it's really humiliating, and it's hard to please, who will do it.
The key point is that in fact, 60% of the technical links of the entire semiconductor industry chain are not connected. This outside world does not know, but you ca n’t lie to yourself. Once SIA knows this, the situation may change again. The C?te d’ Azur Will fall into a passive situation.
Luo Sheng smiled: "I just said that using me as a tool would prevent me from seeing, and I didn't say not using me as a tool would prevent me from seeing."
Everyone was stunned for a while, and the first time I heard it said that it was not said, but a careful product is two opposite meanings, and the Chinese culture is profound.
"Boss, don't stop selling things. What are you going to do about it?"
"Yeah, if so, what are the conditions?"
Luo Sheng put a smile on his face and said, "Pete Winick wants to borrow a knife to kill people. I will also follow his strategy and use him as a knife. Who is the tool man?"
Yao Jianhong curiously said: "How do you say this?"
Luo Sheng: "I don't see it. ASML still has to find another way out. Then he will definitely find other domestic manufacturers to win customers and partners. Just I can see how many people in the country are two or five, and take the opportunity to wash the team. At least there must be a little black book in mind. "
Everyone is stunned, can there be this magical effect?
Yup!
The Zixing lithography machine is not fake, but it has to be queued up for purchase. There is no doubt that Xiongxin Electronics is definitely the first priority supply. Even so, it will have to wait until one or two years, let alone other manufacturers. By the way, ASML can certainly see the supply problem.
It's insidious.
Everyone secretly commented on BOSS. I thought I had guessed the three floors of BOSS. I didn't expect BOSS to be on the fourth floor, but Ge Luosheng was actually on the fifth floor.
"After talking about the unseen things, and then the question of seeing you again." Luo Sheng explained in an orderly way: "We talk more about Pete Wernicke, not because of the SIA, this must be clear, but because of what? The European market, The collapse of ASML will also affect the interests of German manufacturing. Germany is also the core of the euro zone, and the North American market has been lost. The European market is the most important developed country market on the French Riviera. "
"So, our interests and the interests of the other party are connected, so we can talk, as a negotiation condition, does not affect my C?te d’ Azur business in the European market, do n’t mess with me, I can keep ASML alive. , Can continue to live and moisturize, and can even continue to deepen cooperation, continue to deepen business cooperation with Europe as a whole, this can be discussed, other exemptions, talking about the entire integrated circuit pattern to reshuffle an ASML is not enough, only John of SIA The old man is qualified to come and talk to me. "
This turned out to be so. After listening to it, everyone suddenly realized that they were sighing again and again. In the end, they still couldn't keep up with the pattern of the big boss.
Even the European business has been taken into consideration, and the outside world has never thought about this problem, and has focused on North America.
It's only now that Europeans are uncomfortable with the large sums of money from foreign technology companies. Silicon Valley technology giants such as Google, Amazon, and Microsoft have been severely fined by Europe and the United States.
In this posture, the C?te d'Azur and Blue Star Technology will have to suffer a knife sooner or later. The reason why they did not start is because the two companies are investing in Europe on a large scale, contributing tens of thousands of jobs, and the two parties are still doing well.
I didn't find a good opportunity to start, but Luo Sheng wouldn't think that this group of foreigners would really be grateful to Dade, maybe they were playing "scientific pig raising" and fattened you before killing.
At this time, don't write a lot of chips into your arms, when you are slaughtered, you will not notify you.
The idea of ??harmony with wealth is inherently contrary to reality. The so-called harmony with wealth is based on the checks and balances of the two parties. Once the balance is out of balance, the coffin is raised to make a fortune, so that the other party can make a fortune.
Looting is their essence.
Luo Sheng added: "By the way, not only do you have to pour a little oil, and to bring the news to the media with an executive on the C?te d'Azur who did not want to reveal your name, try to amplify the news that Pete Wernick came to the door to see the misfortune ... I hope Pete ’s mind does n’t jump. ”
Yao Jianhong said: "This trick really hurts ~ www.novelhall.com ~ murderous."
Luo Sheng smiled: "The damage is a bit of a loss, but this is part of the plan. We should use ASML as a pot of meat to fry, toss and fry it again and again, destroying his confidence, and do not leave him any illusions. It will be much smoother if we talk again. "
In Luo Sheng's eyes, the value that ASML can still exist now is only the European business market.
...
An hour later, a room in the newly opened Hilton Hotel in Sioux City.
Pete Wernick's secretary knocked on the door.
"BOSS, the Cote d'Azur wrote back."
Hearing that, Pete Wernick, who was smoking in a muff, extinguished the cigarette butt, immediately looked at the secretary and said: "When will I meet? Where is it?"
