Chapter 1210 buy a computer
ARM has already confirmed to sell it.
There are many buyers in contact with them, and they are also actively negotiating with potential buyers. Neon SoftBank has no intention of holding on to ARM.
The name of SoftBank is derived from the meaning of "Software Bank".
It started out by selling software and claimed to be a high-tech company, with its main business in information and communications. But later, SoftBank embarked on the traditional path of Neon chaebol and became a venture capital firm in the technology industry.
Since 1994, SoftBank Co., Ltd. has made an IPO and has begun to actively test various venture capital investments.
In the past decade, he successively invested in Yahoo, acquired Neon Bond Credit Bank, acquired mobile phone operator J-Phone for 1.75 trillion yen, etc.
The success in the communications industry has caused SoftBank's ambitions to continue to expand.
In the second half of Mobile Internet and the first half of AI, SoftBank has set its sights on the field of big travel. Anyone who can rank in the world will spend money crazy.
For example, Uber, the world's largest travel company, Didi Chuxing, the younger brother of China's largest travel company, and Grab, the largest travel company in Southeast Asia, are SoftBank.
They also invested in worshipping bicycles, but unfortunately shared bicycles have already exploded.
The cat factory retreated, but they lost money.
In addition, SoftBank also extends its business tentacles to many technology fields such as online, financial technology, and online real estate.
It naturally became an arrogant technological empire.
With the support of the Middle East tycoons, Sun Zhengyi established the Vision Fund, which is the largest venture capital or private equity investment company in the world's history, and even the largest merger and acquisition fund.
Sun Zhengyi wants to be the "behind the scenes" of the technological revolution.
After success, the credit is left to the frontline display, and most of the fruits of victory enter their own pockets.
However, success is due to technology, and failure is due to technology.
The rewards didn't come as fast as I thought.
Nowadays, there are many strong people in the technology industry and there are many competitors.
Although technical barriers can become commercial moats, as long as technology can be used to spend money, time, and overtime, a large amount of capital will pour into this track.
For example, cat factory, and competitors in various tracks supported by China.
SoftBank has become unscrupulous.
Behind the crazy "spending" investment, SoftBank's debt scale actually surpasses that of Venezuela.
SoftBank Group's current debt scale is US$147 billion, while Venezuela, which is in economic trouble, has a debt scale of US$140 billion, which is US$7 billion less than SoftBank Group.
In order to provide financing for intensive investment activities, SoftBank Group needs to raise funds through various means.
Some SoftBank Group's creditors have gradually lost patience. In line with this, SoftBank Group has recently begun selling assets. For example, Sprint, a small fruit telecom operator under SoftBank Group, was recently acquired by its competitor T-Mobile for US$26 billion. In addition, SoftBank is preparing to separate the Neon Telecom operator business and list it, which may raise US$18 billion.
It is reported that SoftBank is also preparing to relist ARM, a chip design company that it acquired in the past for more than $30 billion, that is, sell part of its equity to investors.
However, what is more embarrassing is that even if it is listed again, its capital valuation may be less than the original acquisition price of US$32 billion.
This transaction is a loss.
If ARM, which was acquired by US$32 billion in 2016, can be sold at a suitable price, Sun Zhengyi will actively promote the completion of the acquisition.
But 40 billion US dollars is too expensive.
Most buyers can't afford the money.
SoftBank doesn't look down on their business and is too lazy to change equity replacement.
Pei Qianlong is currently working hard to do one thing.
That is to make Xiaoguozi believe that if the cat factory stall is too large, it will easily lead to a collapse on the whole line.
At present, the cat factory has zero debt.
But if the cat factory embarks on the road of crazy acquisitions and its debts further intensify, will it be possible that it will make him choke to death?
There are so many ridiculous things in this world.
As long as there is sufficient benefit.
Pei Qianlong was able to instruct the child to ride a bicycle to hit Xiaoguozi's friend. Yes, the old man who was hit into the hospital - Carl Icahn. He had a good personal relationship with Xiaoguozi.
He is preparing to make a very large plan.
Starting from all aspects, we must legally and compliantly include ARM in the arms of the cat factory.
And before the real action, he needs to perform a simulation.
The last time he missed Toshiba's flash memory business, he still targeted Toshiba this time. The difference is that this time he targeted Toshiba's laptop business.
This once great company has completely moved towards the sunset.
After selling Westinghouse Electric, Toshiba also plans to sell its laptop business.
It is reported that Sharp has been in contact with Toshiba, and their valuation of Toshiba's computer business is US$92 million.
The laptop business is Pei Qianlong’s operational test goal.
With the popularity of mobile Internet, the role of computers is gradually decreasing. Due to the delay in launching new products and the weakening of consumer demand, major laptop brands including Apple, Asus, HP, Lenovo, Samsung, Sony and Toshiba are reducing their shipments year by year.
This thing is a pity to throw away, but it tastes tasteless to eat.
In 2014, Sony directly transferred its computer business to JIP, thus freeing up more energy and funds to focus on its advantageous business.
Now, Toshiba also plans to sell their business.
If the Cat Factory wants to acquire this, the resistance will not be particularly great - if Toshiba is not regarded as the target, the Cat Factory can go and talk to Xiangxiang.
Think about it, it acquired IBM's computer division in 2004.
Now they have almost absorbed the technology, and it is reasonable to split the part they have acquired and sell it to the cat factory.
The premise is to think about this company and remember that it is Huaxia Company.
Sharp's valuation of Toshiba's computer business was US$92 million, and Pei Qianlongcai was generous and directly gave a high price of US$150 million.
The gap between 1.5 and 0.9 is too big.
This is definitely a high price that is hard to refuse.
Therefore, Toshiba is also trying hard to promote this transaction.
This is Pei Qianlong’s plan.
If you say you want to buy ARM, it will definitely attract many people's attention.
But if the Cat Factory has already acquired a lot of things, such as Toshiba's laptop business, it would be less eye-catching if it is bought more.
One hundred and five billion US dollars is counted as one billion Chinese currency.
But Pei Qianlonghua is not just this. It also costs a lot of money to feed people in key positions in other aspects.
Well, this money is equivalent to buying a little boy riding a bicycle.
Lin Dong said that he would give more than 3 billion yuan, but Pei Qianlong did not refuse, because in his opinion, there was actually no difference between the company's money or the boss's money.
Isn't this all the boss's money?
After buying Toshiba's laptop business, it will become the starting point of MeowDian (Mao Factory Computer Business).
Start with a laptop and slowly develop to the PC side.
Don’t worry about market problems. If there is a problem, it’s only a matter of minutes to become a Miaodian user.
In this way, the computer business unit is not considered starting from scratch.
This acquisition can greatly accelerate the layout of Mao Factory in the fields of computers and computer systems, especially computer operating systems.
It is bound to be operated by users in order to continuously improve the operating system.
Lin Dong did not transfer the money as soon as possible - according to his agreement with the system, it would be difficult to transfer the money that had been transferred back.
He had to ask Jia Ling clearly.
How much does it cost to make the movie she had?
