Chapter 1654: The Great Pit Will Be Digged Soon

“The Board has approved an increase in the quarterly cash dividend of 6 per cent, from the previous 16 cents to 17 cents per share, which will come into effect on 1 March.

Despite the uncertainty surrounding the global economic environment, we will continue to pursue the implementation of established strategies, maintain a strong level of cash flows and safeguard shareholders' interests through stock reviews and dividends. ”

Andy attended the press conference for the first time in his capacity as Chairman of the Qualcomm Board on the morning of 26 February and released the Board's latest resolution to the outside world.

At the same time, it is also a commitment to the major shareholders when the disguise is realized when it is voted on by the board of directors itself.

“Mr. Smith, I was wondering if the news that you personally are continuing to increase your Qualcomm shares is true. ”

Andy, who was wearing a pencil and fitted to his suit, sat on the chair with a smile on his face, watching the reporters taking constant pictures below, listening to the journalists' questions, nodded slightly and replied: "Yes, I prefer the future development of Qualcomm to anyone else, which is why I would have chosen to acquire Qualcomm.

Now the stock price is so low that it is completely underestimated, of course I would choose to buy it. ”

“Is it possible to think that this is the best time to copy the shares? ”

As soon as the question was asked, all the reporters and staff focused on Andy on the podium, you know that Andy Smith's reputation for financial genius is now widely publicized, especially at the Stock Divine Street, where only he makes a lot of money, people will take Andy's opinions seriously.

“Oh, that's what you said, I didn't say.” Andy wouldn't make such a painstaking prediction, he just smiled and shook his head and refused to answer the question.

It just didn't take long to catch Andy Smith being able to interview honestly. How could these reporters let him go, especially when his stock was broken, he volunteered to admit to poaching, his shares were falling continuously, and when the people panicked again, faced with the only financial genius who had a great record of fighting in the financial crisis, how could he stop without asking questions of national concern?

“Do you shake your head to deny that US shares will continue to fall? Mr. Smith, can you predict when the stock will rebound... ”

“Oh, I can't give you the answer to that question, because only God knows... ”

“Sorry, this is a press conference for Qualcomm, please don't ask any questions unrelated to the subject. ”

Faced with an increasing number of press inquiries, Andy smiled and turned to the press conference host standing aside, slightly leaning back on his chin, and the host immediately said to the microphone.

“A reporter asks why Buffett doesn't invest in technology-based industries, and Buffett says it's not his advantage. He may not rank among the top 1,000 people in the world, the top 10,000 people who know technology companies the most. Instead of asking him, he thinks you're the most knowledgeable investor in the industry, Mr. Smith, what do you think of Buffett's words, and how do you think he admitted in a letter to investors the other day that he made a mistake last year, causing Birkhill's performance to decline dramatically? ”

Andy, who was supposed to smile from the podium and listen to the reporter's question, was slightly unresponsive to the reporter's panting question, so he shook his head and replied with a smile: “Thank you, Mr. Buffett, but I'm not an investment expert. As for Mr. Buffett's admittance that he made a mistake, the company's performance declined, and in the face of a decline in business activities such as" free fall ”, who could not have made a mistake? Mr. Buffett has done well in the face of the century financial tsunami. It will all come to pass, and I remain confident in the future. Thank you.”

When Andy finished, he backed down the chair slightly, stood up, he wanted to end this increasingly runaway press conference, and when he stood up, the moderator started to say the end of the press conference in due course, but the reporters under the stage could quit, shouted and left the room, ignoring the order of the scene, surrounding Andy, wanting to interview more content.

The security guards immediately rushed forward, blocked the journalists, kept Andy safe and slowly moved to the entrance, surrounded by all sorts of questioning, and the scene was suddenly noisy and chaotic.

“What do you think of the future economy... ”

“Where is the turning point of the stock market... ”

“Citibank and the government have reached an agreement to phase nationalization, and your fears are becoming a reality, what do you think... ”

“Gold futures prices now fall by $2.5 per ounce, influenced by factors such as the sharp fall in crude oil. It was also the third consecutive trading day that maturities had fallen since the resumption of the $1,000 threshold on 20 February. Mr. Smith, how do you see the gold coming... ”

Andy, blinded by the death of his security guard, easily moved to the entrance, and then across the human wall, in the blinking light, turned back and said softly: "Becautiousinenteringthemarketwheninvestmentisrisky! (Investments are risky, be cautious when entering the market! ”

“Click-- click--”

Andy turns around and leaves behind only one shadow for the reporters, followed by this fluttering shutter sound.

Back at the chairman's office, Andy loosened his neck tie, sat on the boss's chair, laid idly against his eyes and pondered for a moment, sat up straight, moved the boss's chair, picked up a folder in the office and opened it and looked.

The document contained detailed information about Qualcomm's cell phone department, which he then planned to separate from Qualcomm's already marginalized cell phone department before acquiring a cell phone company himself.

In order to promote CDMA, Qualcomm manufactured CDMA phones by itself, had a complete mature cell phone production line and technology reserves. As long as Qualcomm acquired its cell phone department, it essentially acquired a cell phone manufacturer, with Andy's urine xing, how could he have flowed fertilizer into the field?

Plus, he's always wanted to build big screen phones that are still out of Apple's sight, and, of course, the most important thing is to build patent barriers around a series of patents on the phone's appearance, what about Liu Hai, what about curved screens and other patents such as cell phone cameras, voice recognition, fingerprint recognition, etc., because in Andy's view, the ATMs he's going to be facing in the future are not just Apple, but also four stars and all the cell phone companies around the world.

The sale of the mobile phone department has already been approved by the board of directors, and the near-water building is a first come, first served month, making it easier for Andy to acquire the mobile phone department in front of a competitor's roughly bid, and there is no suspicion of internal transactions.

“Tsk... What's the name of the phone?” Andy had a tight eyebrow, some headaches in his head, his fingers banging on the table and his mouth mumbling.

“Buzz--”

At this point, the phone on the desk started buzzing, interrupting Andy's thinking, picking up the phone and looking at it, smiling slightly, and picking it up.

“Honey, are you done over there? ”

Andy leaned against the boss's chair and heard Ivana on the phone, smiling softly and saying, "It's over. I'll be right back to pick you up. Are you ready? ”

“There's nothing to prepare, well, then come back and I have something else to tell you. ”

“Hmm?” Andy asked curiously.

“I'll talk to you later. Okay, I'm hanging up. Hurry up. ”

“Well, I'm leaving now.” Andy stood up from the boss's chair, talking about the phone, closing the folders on the desktop, and then finding a couple of them together from a folder beside him, hanging up the phone, grabbing a folder in his hand, thinking about it, making sure nothing was missing, and walking out.

After walking out of the office and handing over the folders to Martin, he took a group of bodyguards up to the apron on the roof of the elevator.

“Da-da-da-da-da-”

The helicopter's propeller sounds attracted the attention of journalists trapped outside the Qualcomm headquarters door, one looking up at the sky and showing disappointment on his face, although many more reporters lifted up the high-magnitude camera in their hands and began capturing shots.

“Phew ~”

Andy walked down from the helicopter, watched the blonde standing in front of the Freedom City Mansion door pull up casually, wearing a blue long loose crew neck shirt with jeans and white shoes, walking to her side, holding her waist limbs, and having a kiss with her, WEN, softly laughing: “What, do we have to meet before we talk? ”

“Honey, I'm going to sponsor Nadia Sulmanna's eight twins for two years without wet urine. Vintage entertainment companies are so disgusting, you can't let these bastards get away with this!” Ivana walked into Freedom City with Andy around her waist and handed Andy a newspaper.

Andy looked at the story in the paper and some of it made him cry.
