Rebirth: My dad is a coal boss

The next day, when Liu Siying was still asleep, Lin Hao had already taken a group of people from Haohan Technology to Huawei. Hu Zhengming, Liang Mengsong and other semiconductor bosses were all there.

At the gate of Huawei, Mr. Ren and a group of executives of the company were waiting early in the morning. Some time ago, there were suddenly several notices from the Pengcheng government saying that Haohan Technology would come to Huawei for a visit.

He knew Haohan Technology. It was a new company that announced an investment of 20 billion US dollars in research and development last summer. It also reached cooperation with Panasonic and Samsung. It was very impressive. It also established a research and development center and factory in Pengcheng, but it had no intersection with Huawei. Why did it suddenly come to Huawei for a visit?

While still thinking, Lin Hao's motorcade had arrived at the gate of Huawei. After getting off the car, Lin Hao saw Mr. Ren's figure and immediately stepped forward to shake hands.

"I'm sorry to bother you, Mr. Ren, for visiting Huawei this time." Lin Hao said with a smile.

"I've heard that Mr. Lin is a leader among the younger generation. I didn't expect him to be so young and promising."

"I still have a lot to learn. I hope Mr. Ren will give me some advice."

The two shook hands and exchanged pleasantries for a while, then walked into Huawei together. After entering the company, Mr. Ren introduced the company's development history.

"Huawei was established in 1987, more than ten years ago. At first, it was a sales agent of a Hong Kong company. In 1993, it launched the C&C08 digital program-controlled exchange, marking the first time that Huawei had its own technology accumulation. In 1997, it launched the wireless GSM solution. So far, it has won communication orders from many countries."

Lin Hao has been listening and nodding from time to time, but he doesn't know anything about technology. Hu Zhengming and Liang Mengsong on the side listened very seriously. Although they are in the semiconductor business, they also understand communication technology.

Inside Huawei, we came to the R&D center. "This is Huawei's R&D center. Since 2000, Huawei has launched a global strategy and built many R&D centers around the world, but the one in Pengcheng is the most core."

As he walked, Mr. Ren introduced Huawei's R&D center: "Let me introduce you. This is Yu Dazui, our company's vice president of R&D and director of 3G products."

Mr. Ren suddenly stopped and introduced Yu Dazui, whom he had just met yesterday, to Lin Hao.

"Mr. Yu, we meet again." Lin Hao smiled and stretched out his hand

Yu Dazui looked at Lin Hao. He didn't expect that the person he met at the factory gate yesterday would meet again today, accompanied by Mr. Ren. Today, he received news that Haohan Technology came back to visit the company, and Lin Hao came in person. At that time, he thought of the young man at the factory gate last night, but he didn't expect it was really Lin Hao.

"Hello, Mr. Lin." Yu Dazui said, shaking Lin Hao's hand.

"Do the two know each other?" After hearing what Lin Hao and Yu Dazui said, Mr. Ren asked.

"Yesterday I went to see the factory of Haohan Technology and Huawei's factory. I met Mr. Yu at the door." Lin Hao said.

"I didn't expect to see Mr. Lin again today." Yu Dazui said.

"This is really a coincidence. Dazui is a core R&D personnel of Huawei. Huawei's main GSM product was developed by him and his team." Mr. Ren praised generously.

"When will the 3G network be commercially available?" Lin Hao asked with interest. The 3G network is an important turning point. China's Internet has shifted from the PC era to the mobile Internet era.

"If it is commercially available, it will take a few years. It will not be commercially available in a short time." Yu Dazui said.

Hearing this, Lin Hao nodded. It is indeed early. China's Internet landscape has not been determined yet. The BAT Big Three are still developing. Now it is still the world of the four major portals.

Meeting Yu Dazui is just a small episode. His position in Huawei is not too high. Although he is the vice president of R&D, he can be regarded as a middle-level person. Huawei is very large. In 1999, Huawei's employees reached 15,000.

In the morning, Lin Hao visited the R&D center and the factory. He was stopped yesterday, but today, Mr. Ren took him in. The equipment in the factory was very advanced, and the various instruments were overwhelming.

At noon, they had lunch in the factory, and Lin Hao and Mr. Ren sat opposite each other.

"I heard that Huawei and Motorola reached an agreement to sell Huawei for 7.5 billion US dollars. I wonder if this is true."

While eating, Lin Hao asked unintentionally, which startled Mr. Ren who was sitting opposite him. This matter has been carried out in secret, and only a few senior executives in the company knew about it. How did Lin Hao know about it?

He originally planned to announce it after the formal contract was signed, butThere was a problem with Motorola. After the new CEO took office, the acquisition was suspended.

Now it has been a month and there is no news. Before that, he took a group of people from the company to Sanya for vacation and prepared to celebrate. After all, everything that should be discussed was almost done, and the only thing left was the signing. Unexpectedly, there would be changes.

Although I don’t know how Lin Hao knew it, Lin Hao knew it all, and he didn’t think of hiding it.

“It is true. It has basically been discussed and the only thing left is the signing.”

Hearing this, Lin Hao almost laughed out loud. He was still holding on to his fantasy. Although Motorola has not yet voted on the board of directors, it has basically been decided. It just feels that Huawei is not worth 7.5 billion US dollars, and this matter is basically a failure.

"I have some connections in the United States. I heard about this acquisition. Motorola's new CEO has rejected this acquisition. It should be voted on in the board of directors soon, and most of the board members think that 7.5 billion US dollars is too expensive."

Lin Hao's words shocked Mr. Ren again. Although the negotiations were suspended before, he thought that it might be because Motorola had changed its CEO and had to deal with the handover. It would continue later. He didn't expect this to be the case.

He didn't know whether what Lin Hao said was true or false, but the acquisition was negotiated at the end of last year, and it was suddenly suspended in January. What Lin Hao said was very likely true.

For a while, Mr. Ren's thoughts were a bit messy. He wanted to sell Huawei after careful consideration. In recent years, Huawei has faced severe challenges both inside and outside, including tight funds, intensified market competition, uncertainty about future development and lack of confidence in victory.

Huawei also encountered other challenges in 2003, including the departure of Li Yinan and others, intensified international market competition, and failure in terminal business. These factors combined to make him lose hope for a time, which led to the idea of ​​selling Huawei.
