Technology: Start by selling mobile phones

Chapter 147 The photolithography machine deal was concluded!

As we all know, Jews are a very powerful race.

In Jewish history, there have been several world-class financial giants, industrialists, bankers, scientists, etc.

Such as Einstein.

Such as Picasso.

Such as Marx.

What the Jews are most powerful about is the economic field.

Jews account for half of the world's richest entrepreneurs, and among American billionaires, 20 of the top 40 on Forbes' list are Jews.

so.

When Mo Ran shook his head and refused, President Adolph Bello's face did not waver at all and was still relaxed.

He gently pulled out the ring on his finger, and then looked at Mo Ran lightly:

"Mr. Mo, you don't have to rush to refuse."

"Business can be discussed, and we are still happy to broker this deal."

"I'm afraid this is not a matchmaking, but a squeeze."

Mo Ran spread his hands politely and said bluntly:

"Mr. President, I admit that I have plans to expand the number of lithography machines, but to be honest, 22nm lithography machines are not in my plan; I now need more mature and cheap lithography machines, such as 56nm, 60nm DUV lithography machine.”

"And you should also know that the 22nm lithography machine is useless to us. Even if we buy it, our technology will not be able to play its maximum role. Do you think we are capable of producing chips above 20nm?"

"There's no way I was paying that much for it."

"Ha ha."

As Mo Ran finished speaking, Adolph Bello laughed twice, and then looked at Mo Ran.

After looking at it for several seconds, he said:

"Mr. Mo, I don't completely agree with your point of view."

"You say you can't use 22nm lithography machines now, but that doesn't mean you won't be able to use them in the future."

Mo Ran shrugged.

"For future matters, I'll contact you when I need it later."

Adolph Bello smiled again, and after a moment, his eyes slowly moved away from Mo Ran.

In fact, he did come to Yanguo to deal with some matters by chance, and happened to know about this matter.

When he learned that he had contacted a 22nm lithography machine, he immediately realized that this was a good bargaining chip, so he decided to talk in person.

After all, the 22nm lithography machine is a high-end product no matter what, and it even has a bit of scarcity. If it works well, you can get a good premium from it.

Unexpectedly, the interest of Nietzsche Company in front of me seems not as strong as I imagined?

He picked up the coffee cup. If Nietzsche decided not to use this 22-nanometer lithography machine and only wanted other lithography machines, the transaction amount would be pitifully small.

It's even possible that the deal won't be closed anymore.

Thinking of this, Adolf Bello glanced at Chen Yousheng aside without revealing any traces. Chen Yousheng understood, coughed lightly, and said with a smile:

"Mr. Mo, after all, this opportunity for a 22nm lithography machine is rare..."

"We can discuss the specific price and cooperation methods slowly."

After the words fell, Mo Ran's face softened, revealing a kind smile.

Of course he also hopes to buy a 22nm lithography machine.

We haven't really broken up yet, and we can still find a way to buy a lithography machine under the hood; in a few months, we won't be able to buy a 22-nanometer lithography machine no matter how rich we are.

but.

This matter cannot be rushed.

Mo Ran subconsciously glanced at Adolph Bello, who was smiling.

He knew very well that once he showed a strong interest in the 22-nanometer lithography machine, with the cunning and acumen of the Jews, he would be severely slaughtered.

Only when you show whether you like to sell or not, and whether you can buy or not, so that "Blackstone Capital" cannot guess your true thoughts, can it be possible to conclude a transaction at a low cost.

so……

He spread his hands slightly.

"Since President Chen and President Bello have said so, I can only continue to talk for the sake of their face."

"But let's talk first. I can't accept the price you offered before."

"Okay, Mr. Mo, don't be in a hurry, let's talk slowly."

With Chen Yousheng as the mediator, the two sides finally resumed negotiations.

However, what Mo Ran thought was still too simple. After about ten minutes, the two sides still had a big difference in the price of the "lithography machine group", especially since the president in front of him, Adolfo Bello, was much smarter than he thought.

Even though he tried his best to show that he was not very interested, the other party's probing and pulling continued.

Mo Ran realized that this matter could never be discussed today. Seeing this, he simply interrupted the negotiation.

"President Adolph Bello, Mr. Chen, that's it for today."

"I think we all need to calm down now and reevaluate this deal."

Not just Mo Ran.

Adolf Bello also realized that it was difficult to negotiate a result today, and after the initial test of Mo Ran, he really needed to reconsider the price of the transaction.

After thinking for a moment, he nodded slightly.

"No problem, I agree with your suggestion, then let's keep in touch."

"good!"

The two parties exchanged a few polite words, and then Chen Yousheng personally sent Mo Ran and Mo Ran into the elevator.

After arriving at the underground parking lot and starting the car, until it reached the main road, Li Zhi, who had been sitting silently in the passenger seat, let out a heavy breath.

Mo Ran couldn't help but smile and turned to look at Li Zhi.

"What's wrong? Are you so stressed?"

Li Zhi didn't pay attention to Mo Ran's teasing, his expression became serious, and he said seriously:

"Mr. Mo, I think this opportunity to purchase a 22nm lithography machine is really rare. If possible, we'd better find a way to win it!"

"Oh? What do you say?"

Mo Ran slowed down the car and looked at Li Zhi with interest.

Seeing this, Li Zhi no longer remained silent and said hurriedly:

"Mr. Mo, although this 22-nanometer DUV lithography machine is still far behind ASLM's top 5-nanometer EUV lithography machine, it is considered a high-end product in the field of DUV lithography machines. There are no channels. Hard to buy.”

"If we can get a 22nm lithography machine, although it will be of limited use now, it will be of great benefit to us in the future to produce higher-layer '3D-Nand' memory particles, or even ordinary memory particles!"

"So, I really highly recommend buying it."

Mo Ran showed a smile and did not answer directly.

Of course he knows the importance of the 22nm lithography machine.

In fact, memory chips are not different from traditional SOC mobile phone chips.

Originating from "Moore's Law", traditional SOC mobile phone chips are very dependent on process. For example, the A8 processor on Apple 6S is only made of 20 nanometers, but in a few years, the mainstream flagship chips in the market have been upgraded from 20 nanometers to 10 nanometers. 7 nanometer or even 3 nanometer.

The reason for the extreme pursuit of process is that every time the process is improved, the performance of mobile phone chips will be greatly improved.

But memory chips or "flash particles" are not like that.

The most important function of flash memory particles is to store information, and what is the most important thing about storing information?

It’s data security!

The most advanced process technologies such as 7 nanometer and 5 nanometer can indeed bring capacity improvement and performance improvement to flash memory particles, but high process technology also brings instability and reduced durability.

This is a fatal problem for flash memory particles that must first ensure 100% data security.

so……

In the flash memory particle industry, the 14nm process is already a high-end process, enough to meet 99% of market demand.

Although the 22nm lithography machine is called 22nm, it does not mean that it can only produce 22nm chips!

After multiple exposures, the 22nm lithography machine can produce 14nm chips or even 7nm chips!

In other words, once "Yellow River Storage" purchases this 22-nanometer DUV lithography machine, it means that in the field of "flash particles", "Yellow River Storage" can completely manufacture it as long as it solves the process problems. The best flash memory particles in the world!

After thinking about it, Mo Ran looked at Li Zhi.

"You are right, but..."

"What we can think of, do you think Blackstone Capital can't think of it?"

"They are eager for us to rush to buy it, but what we have to do now is to make them anxious first."

Let them worry first?

Li Zhi was slightly stunned and thought thoughtfully.

And the other side.

Adolf Bello and Chen Yousheng worked very efficiently.

After Mo Ran left, the two immediately began to re-discuss today's transaction and interview.

It was obvious that Adolf Bello was somewhat surprised by Mo Ran's trading attitude.

He first asked Chen Yousheng to bring the materials from Nietzsche's company and then looked at them carefully again. After about ten minutes, he slowly put down the materials.

"Jack, you have also seen the attitude of Nietzsche's boss Mo today. Do you think he really doesn't care about the 22nm lithography machine, or is he just pretending to show it to us?"

Chen Yousheng was obviously thinking about this issue as well. After hesitating for a moment, he finally shook his head.

"Mr. President, I'm not sure."

"But I prefer that they are not very interested, or that they did not expect to have a 22nm lithography machine. This was not part of their plan!"

Adolphe Bello remained calm and did not speak.

After a few seconds, he picked up the coffee and took a sip, and suddenly said firmly:

"No, I don't think so."

"I think they care about the 22nm lithography machine. What Mo did just now was just to hide his true thoughts."

Chen Yousheng was slightly surprised.

Before he could speak, Adolf Bello continued:

"Jack, you don't know much about the chip industry. There are fundamental differences between 22nm lithography machines and 48nm lithography machines."

"Or in other words, if they really have no interest, why don't they just refuse to buy the 22nm lithography machine and instead talk to us about a lot of reasons?"

Chen Yousheng's expression brightened, and he said that it is true that a thousand words mean ten thousand.

"Mr. President, you are right."

"If this is the case... then we still stick to the previous offer of 2 billion?"

but,

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Yousheng couldn't help but shook his head and said in denial:

"I'm afraid not!"

"Mr. Nietzsche's attitude just now was very tough. If we stick to the previous quotation, I am afraid it will be difficult to make a breakthrough in the short term."

"We are just 'middlemen' in this transaction. We not only have to compete with Nietzsche, but also consider the situation on the seller's side. If it drags on for a long time and the news leaks, I'm afraid it will be a long night and a lot of dreams!"

A hint of appreciation flashed in Adolphe Bello's eyes and he praised:

"Headquarters did not misjudge you. You are very considerate at such a young age."

"Indeed, our biggest trouble now is that we don't have enough time to delay it for too long... and Nietzsche's boss Mo seemed to have discovered this problem just now."

"He's waiting for us to get anxious."

With that said, Adolph Bello stood up from his chair and patted Chen Yousheng on the shoulder.

"Boss Nietzsche is smarter than I thought, but that doesn't mean we will sell to them cheaply."

"We can make some concessions, but the profits we deserve cannot be less."

Chen Yousheng looked shocked. He had been at Blackstone Capital for a long time and he knew the character of his immediate boss very well.

"Mr. President, I understand."

"I will negotiate with them next and will definitely do my best to maximize the company's profits!"

The next two days were pretty much what Mo Ran expected.

The next afternoon, Mo Ran received a call from Chen Yousheng again.

Compared with the previous asking price of 2 billion, 500 million in cash and 1.5 billion in loans, although the second offer is still very high at 1.8 billion, there are some changes in the payment method.

Mo Ran did not refuse, and immediately started a discussion with Chen Yousheng.

Both sides have their own thoughts, but they don't point out each other.

Mo Ran wanted a 22nm lithography machine, but Blackstone Capital couldn't afford it and didn't dare to go too far, so after two days of intense discussions, the transaction framework was roughly finalized.

The "lithography machine group" traded includes a total of six lithography machines, priced at 1.65 billion.

Nietzsche made a down payment of 500 million, and the remaining 1.15 billion was borrowed from Blackstone Capital in the form of a mortgage loan for one year.

The annual interest rate is still 21%.

Mo Ran didn't know how much money Blackstone Capital would make in total from this deal, but seeing Chen Yousheng's bright smile, he knew it would be a lot.

However, Mo Ran also smiled brightly in his heart. He also made a lot of money from this transaction.

Only he knew that in a few months, this 22-nanometer lithography machine would become the top lithography machine in the Yan Kingdom and an important weapon of the country.

At that time, there will be no market price.

The day the two parties reached a transaction agreement.

In the office of Blackstone Capital, Adolf Bello was sitting in his office chair while Chen Yousheng was making a report.

"Mr. President, the agreement has been signed. Please take a look."

"They have paid a deposit of 50 million yuan, and the remaining 450 million down payment will be paid immediately after the lithography machine is shipped to Chengdu."

"Well done."

Adolph Bello took the original agreement handed over by Chen Yousheng, looked at it and nodded with satisfaction.

Although the transaction amount of 1.65 billion was slightly less than the expected 2 billion, overall, he was very satisfied with Chen Yousheng's ability to complete the transaction in such a short period of time.

After a moment, he put the agreement in his hand back on the table and looked at Chen Yousheng.

"Jack, I have notified the sellers in South Korea in advance, and they are already making transportation preparations."

"However, this transaction is still a bit sensitive. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, I temporarily thought of shipping it to Taiwan Province first, and then selling it to Chengdu in the name of a Taiwanese enterprise."

"Also, don't use the name of a 22-nanometer lithography machine to declare it to the outside world as a 60-nanometer lithography machine. I will personally greet the export departments of South Korea and Taiwan Province."

"You hurry up and do it."

"Okay, President, I'll do it myself."

Chen Yousheng was not surprised at all and responded decisively.

He has already seen the powerful power of the "Blackstone Capital" Jewish consortium, especially for South Korea and Taiwan Province, "Blackstone Investment" is simply unfavorable.

It's no big deal to hide everything from the outside world.

but.

Just when he was about to turn around and leave, Adolf Bello suddenly stopped him again.

"Jack, wait a minute."

"Well, President, do you have any other orders?"

"Pay special attention to the situation of Nietzsche Company in the future, and report to me anytime if there is any situation. This company's operating conditions seem to be even better than what we have seen."

Chen Yousheng's eyes flashed with surprise, and then he nodded.

"Okay, President."

And just when Adolf Bello specifically told him to pay attention to Nietzsche, on the other side, Mo Ran was involved in new things.

After negotiating with "Blackstone Capital" about purchasing photolithography machines, all that's left is to wait for the transaction, so Mo Ran doesn't need to worry too much.

There were two things before him now.

the first thing:

Since the launch of "Nietzsche X2" encountered some twists and turns, Mo Ran has made up his mind to continue launching a new flagship mobile phone with a price of more than 3,000 yuan.

His idea was to see if he could draw a drawing of a mobile phone as a new flagship from the system mall.

Another thing is:

As "Yellow River Storage" produces 32-layer "3D-NADN" flash memory particles, although the output and yield are low, there are still some finished products no matter how low they are.

Mo Ran is considering whether to bring these 32-layer "3D-NAND" flash memory particles to the market, which are regarded as advanced in the world.

Or, use "3D flash memory particles" to make a high-end domestic series of products.
