Reinventing the Millennium

"Mr. Fang, I heard that you slapped someone from Taiwanese Journalists in Xiangjiang?"

"Why didn't you say that I slapped Zhang Zhongmo?"

"Ah, yes, that's what I meant."

"I'm not that worried about Wu Ying. Besides, slapping him won't solve the problem."

Fang Zhuo, who landed in Shanghai, did not feel tired from taking a plane. When he arrived at Hang Lung 23, he went about business as usual, listened to the current situation of the US market as scheduled, and accepted the teasing of co-founder Ms. Yu Hong.

There are many reports in the media in Xiangjiang, and the "mad slap at the door of the hotel" is just an inconspicuous one, but there are always people who can accurately pick out such news to question themselves, and Ms. Yu may not be the last one.

"The U.S. market depends on Mr. Yu's leadership. The rise and fall of Yike in the next year will be in Mr. Yu's hands." Fang Zhuo said in a heavy tone.

"Mr. Fang, I hear similar words from you every year. Are you tired?" Yu Hong complained.

"This year is very different. It's not convenient for me to go to the United States. I always feel uneasy when handling company affairs remotely. Our Mars in June is another extremely important step." Fang Zhuo sighed, "In my heart, it's Extremely anxious and uneasy.”

Yu Hong sighed: "It seems it's time for the King of the United States to ascend the throne."

Fang Zhuo encouraged: "Nail polish!"

In a daze, it was last year that Yike was forced to fight back against the hedge fund*2. Fang Zhuo has put aside their grudges, but I don’t know if others still remember this?

Logically speaking, flying to the United States now should be fine, and there is no need to make excuses.

But Fang Zhuo was afraid that others would disagree with him, so he preferred to be cautious.

Since the company's structure was restructured last year, Yike's overall feedback has been good. The implementation of YMS in China has produced positive internal changes, and the sharp rise in Nasdaq's stock price confirms that everyone's judgment is consistent.

Compared with a pure mobile phone hardware company, the combination of software and hardware can form a stronger competitiveness and moat. Due to the good development of Yixin, Yike America is ready to follow suit and also try the effects of the American version of Yixin in the U.S. market. .

Considering the nature and sensitive situation of the company, Yu Hong held two rounds of talks with Google on behalf of the company, one to talk about development, and the other to talk about the original agreement. When the two parties cooperated, Yike was willing to have Google provide bundled services for the Android system. In exchange, the software bits within the same system are obtained.

That agreement is used here.

Schmidt, the head of Google, was an old-school businessman and had no intention of honoring the agreement. Yu Hong turned around and found founder Larry Page, who was a witness in the office.

A consensus was finally reached on this matter. One of the reasons is that Schmidt has recently suffered opposition from employees within Google. Google was exposed to secret cooperation with military projects, involving artificial intelligence, machine learning and other fields, which is inconsistent with the company's purpose. Schmidt himself may also be affected by this and leave Google.

In any case, the US version of Yixin will carry out business under the name of Android Company, and all relevant data processing will be processed in the United States, so as to complete the entanglement of interests within Android Company.

Nowadays, the global smartphone market penetration is accelerating, and the situation is relatively clear.

Smartphone systems are led by Android and Apple, Microsoft WP is trying to exert its strength, and Symbian and BlackBerry are increasingly declining.

Smartphone brands are Yike, Apple, and Samsung, known as the three major players in the mobile phone industry. Among them, only Samsung is a breakthrough from traditional mobile phone manufacturers, and then there are brands such as Nokia, Motorola, and Sony Ericsson, which have different situations but are generally declining.

Under this situation, Yusanjia made a surprisingly unanimous choice, and they all planned to launch their own mobile phone chips. This was the fruition of the "Hummingbird" cooperation project.

Leaving aside Apple, Qualcomm has had many exchanges with Yike, and I believe it and Samsung are no exception.

On the second day after Fang Zhuo returned to Shanghai, Yusanjia's new cooperation project made great progress. Apple and Samsung were willing to join the acquisition of Infineon's wireless solutions department WLS, focusing on the chip baseband project. joint research and development.

Competition is competition. After all, we have already cooperated on chips once, so it’s not too late to do it again.

It can be expected that as soon as the news is announced, Fang Zhuo will receive calls from Qualcomm.

On January 16, the share price of "Cayman Morning Star" has risen to HK$23.9. Fang Zhuo officially launched a mandatory offer of the company's shares at a price of HK$26, planning to further enhance its control.

Just one day later, the mandatory offer was declared successful and turned into an unconditional offer, because Liang Gongwei sold his shares in frustration. This action alone brought Fang Zhuo's shareholding to 52.9%, exceeding the 50% success condition.

However, the sentiment in the secondary market that is willing to accept the offer at HK$26 is not high. Instead, there are voices saying "Be careful, don't let Mr. Fang privatize".

Although Morningstar Semiconductor has not yet launched a mobile phone chip solution, the market generally believes that its prospects will indeed get better and better.

How much is 26? Morningstar's initial issue price was 37!

Want to run? Have you asked any of your stock investor friends?

This sentiment soon became dumbfounded after Yongke Real Estate issued an announcement - the company's second largest shareholder Liu Suyi, together with Shanghai Real Estate Group and other investors, planned to make a tender offer to acquire 28.9% of the largest shareholder Fang Zhuo's shares, which directly turned into a mandatory offer.

Mr. Fang quits Yongke Real Estate?

Is Yongke Real Estate going to have a thunderstorm? ?

Unlike Morningstar Semiconductor, which has a market value of tens of billions, Yongke Real Estate is seven times that of Morningstar and is a first-tier real estate brand in the mainland.

Affected by this announcement, Yongke's stock price plunged 8.6% at the opening, falling directly below the 70 billion mark, causing the real estate sector of Hong Kong and mainland stock markets to suffer across the board.

The related real estate stocks all feel innocent. Does Mr. Fang’s departure have anything to do with us?

Some investors even called a real estate company whose stock price had fallen to inquire about the situation, and the company's executive and secretary gave a very down-to-earth answer.

"We are in danger, don't worry, this is just a temporary emotion. Hey, you don't know, Mr. Fang actually doesn't value the real estate business at all. Yongke Real Estate is... not very favored. It's normal for him to leave. "

Maybe Yongke Real Estate's own people can't see it. They always feel that they are part of the Yike Group. Others can see clearly that Yongke is not even as good as Sina.

Some investors directly called Yike, wanting to inquire about Mr. Fang's withdrawal from Yongke Real Estate. As a result, the call was actually transferred to the president's office of Hang Lung 23. Once the relevant recording was leaked, it became a big hit.

"Hello, I'm Fang Zhuo."

"Fang, Mr. Fang, I, I am Hippo Man."

"Hello, He Maxia, wait a minute, I'll sign the document." Fang Zhuo was reading the document when he answered the phone.

The Hippo Man waited patiently, and within a few dozen seconds he heard a clearer sound from the other side.

"He Maxia, what's the matter?" Fang Zhuo asked.

"I would like to ask why you quit Yongke Real Estate? Is it because real estate is no longer good?" Hippo Man asked his own question.

"Buying Morning Star also requires money. I happened to have saved money in Yongke, so it was spent." Fang Zhuo answered patiently, "It's quite okay for us to buy a house to live in. It will appreciate in value."

Hippo Man asked: "Morning Star can't spend that much!"

This time, Mr. Fang will receive HK$21 billion from Yongke when he exits Yongke, and only half of the shares will be enough to completely buy out Morningstar.

"I also plan to improve my life and buy a private jet." Fang Zhuo remained patient.

Hippo Man still has questions: “I still can’t spend all the money!!”

"Didn't I say it? I also want to buy a villa in Pingdingshan, Xiangjiang, which is also very expensive." Fang Zhuo explained.

Hippo Man hesitated: "I thought you were joking."

"Haha, yes, I'm joking." Fang Zhuo's tone was calm.

The hippo man in the recording was stunned for a long time.

"Is there anything else, He Maxia?" Fang Zhuo asked the female investor.

"I, I..." Although Hippo Man got the answer, he felt it was not very serious and knew that the call was about to end, so he had no choice but to express his feelings, "Mr. Fang, we Hippo Man love you!"

Fang Zhuo suddenly realized: "Is this the Hippo Man? I thought your father's surname was He and your mother's surname was Ma... How could anyone introduce themselves like this?"

"Mr. Fang, everyone is a Hippo Man!" Hippo Man made a request, "Mr. Fang, can I make one last request?"

"Say it." Fang Zhuo was very kind to ordinary investors.

"I want to hear your own words about fucking Penguin." Hippo Man made an excessive request in a low voice.

Fang Zhuo was very embarrassed: "Isn't this good? My relationship with Pony is actually quite good."

Hippo Man was silent and felt that this was not possible.

"Let's do this, you shout and I will applaud you." Fang Zhuo made appropriate modifications.

Hippo Man immediately became excited and shouted without hesitation: "Just fuck the penguin!!"

Accompanied by the applause of the richest man in the Mainland, the phone recording came to an end.

The recording quickly went viral on the Internet, and Yike's company's phone number was flooded with calls.

This made Fang Zhuo unexpected.

"How did I know that this stock investor recorded a phone call?" Fang Zhuo was asked about this when he went home at night. He felt helpless. "The document I signed at that time was submitted by He Yongzhi. I subconsciously thought that the other person also had the same surname. what."

"I heard that the sound was recorded with Yike's mobile phone. The recording function on Mars is very convenient." Su Wei couldn't help but laugh, which was considered a small overturn.

"I'm convinced." Fang Zhuo shook his head, "I won't answer this kind of call next time."

Doesn't this damage your personal image?

He casually chatted about the progress of Yongke Real Estate's Hong Kong stock market. Suddenly he felt itchy and went to the study to express his feelings.

Su Wei saw the man writing from the side and couldn't help but take out her mobile phone to take a picture, ready to send it to Moments.

——Hippo Hero.

"My Mr. Fang, you are the real Hippo Man, the Hero of the Hippo Man, and the Hero of East China." Su Wei laughed loudly and used this sentence as the copy for the circle of friends.

Fang Zhuo admired his handwriting and felt that even though he hadn't written for a few days, his efforts had made more progress.

He ignored Weiwei's teasing, thought for a moment, and wrote the second word.

——Heng Lung Hero.

What is the hero of East China? I am not a hero of East China, I am just a hero of Hang Lung 23.

Fang Zhuo felt so excited that these four words were extremely beautiful, the pinnacle of his work so far.

"It's average." Su Wei commented, "It's not as good as the first one. I took away the words on the first one and hung it in my office."

She really likes the fun of "Hippo Heroes".

Fang Zhuo also made a decision: "Then I'll hang this in my office. It's so beautiful and has Ouyang charm."

Su Wei thought for a moment, then picked up her phone and took a photo, and posted it to WeChat Moments with her own copy: Devil Palm Refines Morning Star, is this the old demon Henglong?

Fang Zhuo admired his handwriting.

Su Wei admired her copywriting.

After a while, Fang Zhuo said with a smile: "On this trip to Xiangjiang, I asked Xiao Liu to buy a lot of gifts and pick out toys for Coco. You can ask them to come and play later. They can be dismantled just in time. This year I am going to the Beijing site. Watching the Spring Festival Gala, I don’t know how to arrange the time yet.”

"Did you buy it for me too?" Su Wei's eyes wandered.

"I bought you a big villa in Xiangjiang." Fang Zhuo said.

"Really?" Su Wei felt that President Fangda could do this.

"Fake." Fang Zhuo blinked.

Su Wei stopped asking. The person named Fang was better able to do this.

She shook her head slightly: "This year you are going to give New Year greetings to audiences across the country, and you are going to give New Year greetings to Mr. Ma."

"It's Yi Xin who wishes New Year's greetings to audiences across the country." Fang Zhuo said, "and I wish Pony New Year's greetings."

Su Wei looked at his expression and thought of selling friends online during the Spring Festival, promoting Yixin during the National Day, and now doing marketing during the Spring Festival... The old devil really makes people uneasy.

"I'll invite Zhou Xin and his family over for dinner in two days."

Fang Zhuo said "Yeah". This year's New Year's Eve is February 13th. It seems that in less than a month, Yike's technical team will soon be tested.

He thought about it for a while and said sincerely: "I hope I can have a good year this year."

Su Wei nodded and hoped to have a good New Year with Hero Henglong.

…

Morningstar Semiconductor was successfully forced to tender, Liang Gongwei was disheartened, Zhang Zhongtong returned without success, MediaTek was worried, shareholders cheered, the media wrote a lot, Yongke Real Estate suddenly cashed out...

Everything was lively, but the interior of Gaode in the capital was suddenly a little deserted.

The Spring Festival hasn't come yet, the company hasn't had a holiday yet, the employees are still there, even the technical team who helped Yike are still there, but the atmosphere is a bit deserted.

Chenxing, let me tell you something...

how to say?

Although we at AutoNavi now belong to the Pan-Yi Department and are also joining the YMS ecosystem,... Hou Jun, the head of AutoNavi, feels that Liang Gongwei, the founder of Morningstar, is right. If the team does not welcome you in, you can force yourself to join. Isn't it a hostile takeover if you force your way in?

Hou Jun has been paying attention to Morningstar news unconsciously these days. When he saw that the chairman of the board was successfully changed, his heart sank. Are you really going to throw money at him like this?

Are all the employees and shareholders who were hit so hard just saying hello?

Is there no one who speaks out for Mr. Liang?

Heartbreaking, this is real heartbreaking!

Moreover, Morningstar is still a listed company with a market capitalization of tens of billions... This...

Hou Jun was under great pressure.

On January 22, real estate stocks stabilized, the trend-following sentiment gradually passed, and related stock prices rebounded.

Hou Jun suddenly saw two pictures on the social media platform one after another. One was the picture of Wang Xing on Weibo. He went to Shanghai to report and saw "Heng Lung Heroes" hanging on the wall. The second was an unknown comment, saying What "Henglong Old Demon".

Just as it happened, Cheng Congwu, CEO of AutoNavi, walked into the office with a solemn expression and talked about two pieces of news, one good and one bad.

"Mr. Hou, the good news is that Mr. Fang has money, and he will definitely continue to provide us with money."

"Mr. Hou, bad news. Mr. Fang has money there, and he will definitely continue to provide us with money."

Hou Jun glared at Cheng Congwu and said with emotion: "I thought I would catch up with a Henglong hero, but looking at Chenxing's fate, we have to beware of the Henglong old devil."

The old devil thief is so domineering, isn't he afraid of being laughed at by the world?

Cheng Congwu took a long breath and slowly exhaled it, and said something that left Mr. Hou speechless: "Of these giants, who is better than who?"
