"It's so hateful! It's already a great gift for me to sell you a laboratory. If it weren't for the capital winter now, would you think you would have such an opportunity?"

After the negotiations for the sale of the laboratory ended in vain, Noah's head Binn cursed on the way back, thinking that Qian Guangzhi was simply ignorant of raising his name. Especially when Qian Guangzhi thought that he wanted related patents, he felt that these Chinese were fantasizing.

Just kidding, those patents are the foundation for a company to survive and cannot be sold.

But he was angry, but the funding gap always existed, making Binn turn back and ask Qian Guangzhi to renegotiate, he couldn't accept it.

That can only be compensated through other aspects.

After careful consideration, Binn made a decision: "Since you Chinese don't accept my kindness of selling the laboratory, don't blame me!"

So the next day, Noah announced a significant increase in the price of mobile phones in China.

As soon as the policy was released, the world was in an uproar. There was no doubt that Binn used China as an ATM.

Some people support Binn's approach and some oppose it. Some people think Binn has made a good start and think that the price should be raised long ago. In their opinion, China does not have a mobile phone industry, so they should raise the price to death. Now five or six thousand are doing charity, and they should sell it for ten thousand.

On the contrary, more companies such as Motortoni have a wait-and-see attitude, especially Motorton, because he knows very well that China is the country of that man and that man will definitely take revenge.

This is indeed the case. On the day Noah announced the price increase, Zhou Ming called Caitlin to start investment negotiations with Aixin and quickly finalized it in one day.

As the capital of the Harrusburg family entered Aixin, their first requirement was to open up a comprehensive price reduction in the Chinese market. Of course, Caitlin's request was very legitimate: the price was exchanged for the market, and she hoped to see a financial report that satisfies herself.

This news made Piero and Freeman shake their heads.

How.dare.you?

How dare that guy Binn do this? Didn’t he know that Zhou Ming is the one? As long as he is here, China is not a market where multinational companies can be allowed to knead it at will!

Now, your Noah's price has risen, but your market share is going to be lost.

Of course, you can also state that your previous price increase was just a joke and then lower the price back, but doing so will undoubtedly be a destructive blow to the corporate image and will only make it more difficult for you to do in the face of the cold winter of capital.

This price reduction in Aixin directly reminded Binn. When he came to his senses, Binn called Aixin immediately and asked why they wanted to reduce the price.

The person in charge of Aixin felt that Binn had something wrong, so why did he still need to report to you if his company's decisions?

However, based on friendly relations, the person in charge of Aixin could explain to Binn in a good mood at first, but seeing that Binn kept asking them to raise prices, the person in charge of Aixin was frustrated at the time and asked Binn to go home to take care of the children. His IQ was not suitable for leading the company, so he posted the phone.

Being hung up the phone made Bin suddenly remember why he asked him for the other party?

But it was too late at this time. It was too late for him to call Haoshang Haoliang again. The person in charge of Aixin did not answer the phone at all. Only then did Bin feel panic.

At the same time

The department's board of directors also called and severely rebuked Binn and asked Binn to find a way to solve the problem immediately.

Binn was about to cry about this call. He had a hammer solution, but Aixin didn't even answer the phone.

Binn did not give up easily. After thinking about it, he had only one last solution.

Binn called Qian Guangzhi and smiled and said that he could revisit the sale of Bach Laboratory.

Qian Guangzhi couldn't help but ask for it. Although Binn took it off this time, this trend of price increase is a direct reminder that when you lack a certain type of product, the other party can raise prices unscrupulously.

If Zhou Ming hadn't been prepared, this wave of price increases would have caused the country to vomit blood.

After restarting the negotiations, Qian Guangzhi reiterated that relevant technical patents were still needed, and even patents were the most important, and laboratories were the gifts.

Binn had no way out at this time, so he could only sell all the patents related to Bach Laboratory and the laboratory to Qian Guangzhi in package and sell them to Qian Guangzhi.

After obtaining Bach Laboratory and related patents, Qian Guangzhi was so happy that he was about to jump up.

Later, when Qian Guangzhi took the relevant patents back to China, less than a month later, counterfeit mobile phones of various brands emerged across the country like mushrooms after a rain.

Although these counterfeit phones have problems of one kind or another, their appearance also means that China has begun to monopolize the price of multinational mobile phone companies and officially launched a challenge.

The most direct thing is that when counterfeit phones appeared, all multinational mobile phone brands, including Aixin and Motorcycle, their prices achieved a triple jump, from a high of 5,000 to less than 1,000 yuan, and started the era of 100 yuan in advance.

It is worth mentioning that Aixin, which was supposed to be squeezed out of the market in this price war, was favored by the market because of its pre-price cuts. As a result, it became the one with the largest market share in the waves of this price war.

Piero and Freeman are also paying attention to the wealthy Yanggi family.

They are all curious whether this is Zhou Ming’s purpose, using the current capital winter in the continent, to buy the mobile phone-related patents in Noah or Aisin’s hands, and then start with counterfeit phones and compete with these multinational mobile phone giants for the market?

Some of Piero and Freeman think that Vikings like Binn are too stupid. If they are willing to accept investment from Zhou Ming or Caitlin and contribute part of their profits in China, they may be able to avoid such losses.

But some people think this is inevitable, because Zhou Ming is a very domineering guy. If he likes the market, he must make the one who eats the most.

But no one of them knew about these people. The current situation was still just a means, far from the result.

Although he acquired Bach Laboratory and invested in Aixin Company, Zhou Ming still stared at Aurora Laboratory.

According to news from Caitlin, due to the influence of the fluctuations in the Chinese market, Noah has cut off many R&D projects and cut most of the budget for Aurora Laboratory.

"But in the short term, there is no possibility that Noah will give up Aurora Laboratory, because it holds their most core technical patents here." Caitlin told Zhou Ming.

Zhou Ming was not surprised by this result: "The stricter the guards are, the more it means that there is something good here!"

Otherwise, like Bach Laboratory? Don’t look at hundreds of related patents

, but most of them are useless, and they can only produce a bunch of counterfeit machines when taken back.

"What about lithography-related companies such as AWSL and Rice?" Zhou Ming asked again.

Caitlin said that the top lithography companies like AWSL were not greatly affected: "He is backed by Philip and also invested by Yang Ji Capital, so it is difficult to find opportunities."

Zhou Ming had long thought that since he had reminded them of the Internet and information communication, how could the think tank behind Piero who could not think of the importance of the lithography industry as chip masters? Even under the current trend of curbing Oriental Semiconductor, AWSL's lithography machine has become the top priority.

Perhaps the only thing to be thankful is that the capital war is over now, and the wealthy Yang Ji families like Piero and Freeman cannot spend much energy on this side.

However, even so, directly attacking AWSL companies will easily attract the alertness of Piero and others.

"If you contact AWS, keep your current appearance. You can focus on supporting companies such as Rice and Koeman," said Zhou Ming.

The purpose of Yang Ji’s wealthy family is to short the entire continent and establish an absolute advantage in the Internet and information communications industry.

Zhou Ming’s goal is lithography technology, a cutting-edge technology that supports the entire chip industry in later generations.

But it is absolutely a dream to win AWSL directly, and it is even more difficult to get any related technology about lithography.

Therefore, we can only look for the second time. Zhou Ming knew that the lithography machine mainly consists of three parts, namely the light source, the lens and the workbench.

The light source is a simple literal meaning, which emits lasers for chip manufacturing; the workbench adjusts the wafer position to ensure that light energy is illuminated where it needs to be illuminated. This error cannot even have one nanometer.

These two are not that difficult. Light source companies have ready-made ones in China. As for workbenches, although the accuracy requirements are extremely high, they are not impossible to do, and the only difficulty is the lens.

To a certain extent, the lens is also the core part of a lithography machine. It usually consists of twenty or thirty lenses of different sizes. On the one hand, it ensures that the utilization rate of light can be maximized, and on the other hand, it is also to ensure that the irradiation diameter of light can be further reduced.

"What is the current situation of Rice Company?" Zhou Ming asked.

Rice is currently the top company in manufacturing high-end lens technology. It is said that AWSL companies spend tens of millions of yuan to customize related lenses from Rice every year.

It is precisely for this reason that Zhou Ming hopes to make a curve breakthrough through Rice Company to see if he can get the required lenses to cooperate first.

Caitlin told Zhou Ming: "Compared with AWSL, Rice has suffered relatively large impacts in this capital winter, especially major camera and camera companies have reduced their purchases, which directly led to Rice's reduction of most of its revenue. Rice is currently seeking financing."

Zhou Ming raised his eyebrows: "This seems good news?"

Caitlin replied with a smile: "That's right, but as a well-known company, Rice has a lot of capital to buy at the bottom at this time, and it is difficult for us to buy it."

Zhou Ming was very straightforward about this: "No matter what, you have to try it to find out, even a premium investment is OK, because this is the key to the lithography machine!"

"I get it," Caitlin said.
