Chapter 332 Wafer Factory

Are you interested in Texas Instruments' wafer fab Li Jianxi?

Jester is probably interested, because he understands the inner thoughts of Li Jianxi very well. He now wants to make Samsung rise as soon as possible. He is already worried about eating and sleeping, and obtains the most advanced wafer in the world. The factory production line is very helpful for him to improve the competitiveness of Samsung Electronics.

Moreover, based on the construction of the Samsung Group by the later Lee Kun-hee, Jester discovered that although Samsung hates Japan, their business philosophy is very similar to Japanese companies, that is, they are open to death but closed in reality.

Many people today criticize Japanese companies for being self-contained, self-contained, and almost closed to the outside world. But that was not the case for Samsung later. For a product, from raw materials to finished products, all the steps in the production process require all the Samsung can actually complete all the accessories by itself.

How narrow is this in the world business landscape that already has integrated thinking? You know, even if Americans and Europeans build large passenger aircraft, they still purchase parts from all over the world and then assemble them. This can improve work efficiency and reduce production costs as much as possible, like Samsung's model of doing it from start to finish. , although it can ensure that many departments of Samsung, which has millions of employees, will be profitable in the future - but these profits are actually bleeding out of the company.

This is also the reason why, in later generations, the Samsung family has a great business, but its profits are not very high. It is because they do too many things and share the profits that they should have had as a whole.

But this is something in the future, and Jester doesn’t need to worry now.

Moreover, the reason why Samsung can have such a high status in South Korea in the future, and why Lee Kun-hee is honored as the shadow president by the good people, is not because of Samsung’s ubiquitous influence in all walks of life, from the economy to Did they forcibly kidnap the entire South Korea?

Samsung now. In other words, Lee Kun-hee should still not have this kind of courage. Although in South Korea today, Samsung is indeed a first-class conglomerate. It implies that it is richer and more powerful than Samsung. It is not impossible. Maybe the current Lee Kun-hee is just We want Samsung to become the largest consortium in South Korea as soon as possible.

One of them kidnapped South Korea's economy and became South Korea's shadow president. Looking at it now. This is a complete joke. You must know that the South Korea now is not the South Korea later. The South Korea now is still a veritable dictatorship.

After the meeting, Jester immediately contacted Li Jianxi. As for the daughter Li Jianxi had entrusted to him to take care of, Li Jianxi could only find someone to accompany him instead. He really couldn't leave her now. body.

Although it was late at night in Korea, Jester’s phone number had just been dialed. After a few seconds, the voice from the other side came over, and Jester heard the voice, and it seemed that the other party was still a little tired. It must be because I haven't slept yet.

Li Jianxi's voice was a little hoarse. He had just heard the report from the director of the amusement park project to him today. His daughter had to stay with Jester, so. He said in a joking tone: "It's not my daughter who has caused trouble for you, why are you calling me to complain?"

Of course, Jester or Li Jianxi both know. This sentence is just a joke. Let’s not talk about whether it is true or not. Even if it is true, according to Jester’s character, he would not make an overseas phone call to Li Jianxi at this time of night to complain about the other party’s daughter. How irritating is his woman? Bored?

"no."

Jester was also amused by Li Jianxi's words. He first denied it, then thought about his words, and then said: "It's about several world-class fabs."

"Fab?"

Hearing Jester's words, Li Jianxi did not react for a moment. He wondered why Jester suddenly mentioned the problem of the fab. Could it be that Jester wanted to enter this industry, but this idea just came up At that time, he was instantly rejected by himself. His Samsung Electronics had a wafer factory, but it was precisely because of the wafer factory that he knew that it was not a smart move to join this industry rashly. In Li Jianxi's eyes, Jester is one of the smartest people at all times. It is impossible for him to do such a thankless thing at the beginning.

"Yes, a wafer fab, but it's not that I plan to do it, but..." Sure enough, just as Jester spoke the next sentence, he confirmed Li Jianxi's inner guess, and then continued, "It's Texas Instruments. They plan to do it." They are relocating several large wafer fabs in the United States to Asia and are looking for partners. They have contacted Wang Yongqing, but the person from Formosa Plastics is currently busy with Liuqing. How can he have time to build a wafer fab? I heard that there are still people interested in this project in Wanwan, and I remembered that you complained about the backwardness of your wafer fab before? So I contacted Texas Instruments, and they were very excited when they learned that you were interested. You want me to confirm with you again."

"Texas Instruments fab?"

Maybe because it was late at night in Korea, Li Jianxi was still a little groggy and didn't understand what Jester said for a while. After he followed Jester's original words and repeated them, he sat down again. Unable to hold on any longer, he stood up and asked in an incredible tone: "Is it Texas Instruments?"

"Of course, I talked about this with their CEO."

Jester said in an affirmative tone. This answer made Li Jianxi even more interested. He rubbed his palms unconsciously, and then said in an extremely eager tone: "Can you confirm which of their wafers are... Factory?"

"Hold on."

Jester said this first. He had mentioned it before when he was talking to people from Texas Instruments, but after all, it was not something he was familiar with. He did not remember it, but fortunately, the other party left a copy at that time. Regarding the documents on this matter, Jester casually rummaged through them, pulled out a stack of not-so-thick documents, flipped through them quickly, and then said to Li Jianxi: "There are four, one is... In Louis…”

After hearing Jester's answer, there was no sound from Li Jianxi's end for a long time. Apparently, he was also looking for some documents or the person in charge. It took ten minutes before the other end of the phone came back again. Li Jianxi's voice came. Although you could still hear the fatigue that could not be concealed in the voice, this time it was obvious that his tone had become extremely excited.

"Jace, I just checked the documents on this. These wafer fabs are very important to us at Samsung Electronics. Although they are not the most advanced wafer fabs of Texas Instruments, they are very important to us. It is still very advanced. The most important thing is that I have seen a report before, which seemed to mention that Texas Instruments seems to be planning to stop their wafer fab production lines, including the most advanced ones. At one point, I thought, maybe they were testing the waters."

"Are you sure you want to take over these four wafer fabs of Texas Instruments?" Although he had already heard the meaning from Li Jianxi's words, Jester still confirmed it out loud. This matter cannot be taken carelessly. If he If you don't ask clearly, then you will be nothing but a joke and embarrassed to cough yourself up.

"certainly."

Li Jianxi spoke in an extremely eager tone, and it seemed that the word "of course" could not express his mood at this time. He continued to say without saying anything: "If it weren't for the fact that I really can't live without it, this matter, I really want to... No, this matter is too important and is almost related to the future of our Samsung. I have to go to the United States again this time no matter what."

Jester didn't try to persuade him, because if Li Jianxi didn't come to this matter himself, he wouldn't be able to show his importance. Moreover, when Texas Instruments saw the current head of Samsung coming to discuss this matter in person, they also will be satisfied, which shows that Samsung attaches great importance to them. Besides, although he is the second largest shareholder of Samsung, it is impossible for him to do these things for Samsung, because in addition to being a member of Samsung Other than the nominal executive director, he does not hold any positions.

"About what time? I can reply to Texas Instruments so that they can be prepared." Jester directly asked about the time when Li Jianxi came to the United States.

Hearing Jester's question, Li Jianxi must have fallen into thinking. After all, going to the United States to discuss such an important matter does not take a day or two, but may take at least a week, or even more than half a month, and Now in the midst of reform, he must make all arrangements.

After waiting for three to five minutes, Li Jianxi seemed to have figured it out. He said to Jester: "Three days! I will leave for the United States in three days, and because my own time is very tight, I want you to report to Texas Instruments on my behalf. To put it simply, I am personally very interested in your wafer fab. I can show my sincerity by coming here in person. However, due to internal reasons within the company, I cannot stay away for too long. I personally and To express my strong personal will, I very much want to negotiate this matter within a short period of time.”

"No problem." Jester naturally had no objection to this. As for the meeting he had with Texas Instruments, he could tell from the other party's words that the other party's attitude was not what Texas Instruments wanted. Wait for the price to sell, because there is nothing to sell here. There are many people who want wafer fabs, but few have the conditions. So far, the ones that have the ability and urgency are probably TSMC and Samsung.

Therefore, they also really want to find a reliable person to take over. Compared with TSMC, Samsung is naturally more worthy of their trust. (To be continued...)
