Global monopoly of technology

Samuel Palmisano, the head of IBM at the time, was not idle. After the incident, he began to run and ran several times on Wall Street. He also talked to Goldman Sachs’ newest head, Lloyd Bu Frank Vann met.

It is worth mentioning that the core layer of Goldman Sachs has undergone major adjustments since the first half of this year. The former head Henry Paulson has stepped down. This tycoon is now the head of North American finance. This is Goldman Sachs's. Traditional arts.

The Goldman Sachs Board of Directors decided to appoint Gary Cohn and Jon Winkred as the next group president and co-chief operating officer, and at the same time recruit them as board members, join the group executive office, and directly report to the chairman and chairman of the Goldman Sachs Group. Chief Executive Lloyd Blankfein reports.

These people are all great people in North America, and the North American authorities have too many "Goldman Sachs" figures. Luo Sheng is undoubtedly the right choice to embrace Wall Street.

These cattle talents are real local snakes.

Samuel Palmisano found this time, and Goldman Sachs undoubtedly supported it. IBM and Bluestar Technology both have Goldman Sachs' interests in it, and it is not a small number.

Lloyd Blankfan gave Samuel Palmisano the contact information alone.

This person is called Obilu.

This is a loyal speculator. Born in Florida, he used to work as a lawyer for the former CEO of Goldman Sachs, Weinberg. His wife is currently working in a Goldman Sachs foundation and relied on the late Wimber six years ago. Grid's sponsorship participated in the election of the state legislature, while serving as a member of the Diet, while serving as a visiting professor at the University of Florida.

Weinberg donated money to the school, and the school gave Obilu a high salary, all legal.

But it's impossible to spread money like this for free.

Obilu is a very straightforward speculator who plays py trading. Simply put, if you give me money, I will help you make more money. This is the key to the kind that will not disobey him even if it is pointed out by a thousand men. Supporters of people.

Samuel Palmisano left Wall Street and went to Obilu according to his contact information. The tens of billions of dollars of business cooperation involves the vital interests of multiple employers and is enough to drive a large group of people behind them to keep running. , Actively operate.

The strongest fortress must have been breached from the inside, and it can achieve the effect of two or two.

Luo Sheng did one thing, divided the benefits of it with Wall Street, and didn't need to do the rest.

If even Wall Street can't settle it, Luo Sheng, as an outsider, can't settle it even more. Then the plan to establish four major data centers in North America has to be withdrawn, and cloud computing services can only withdraw from the North American market.

Of course, Bluestar Technology will reap the huge liquidated damages paid by IBM for this, and IBM will lose this order and hand it over to competitors.

But Luo Sheng is very optimistic about Wall Street.

It’s impossible for IBM to admit it. Samuel Palmisano has been running very diligently these days. In order to facilitate this international business cooperation, IBM will not hesitate to threaten the North American authorities. If it obstructs it, it will continue to reduce the company’s business. Move out of North America.

This is a trick repeatedly tried by the major technology giants in North America. Companies move their factories out, hollowing out the local manufacturing industry, and local people have to face the unemployment crisis. In fact, a large number of North American multinational companies move their factories to Xinxing to save labor costs. Market country.

For example, Guancheng in China is a good choice.

The labor cost in North America is really high. At present, General Motors is the most typical example. It is still struggling to support it. However, its core management has already felt the imminent crisis, and it may face the crisis of bankruptcy and reorganization next year.

This matter can be big or small, but Luo Sheng is not worried about it. He believes that Wall Street has the energy and relationship to settle these things because it is in the United States.

...

While Lao Mei tried to prevent the Bluestar Technology Group from expanding its business in the North American market, another person came to the Bluestar Technology headquarters.

On the afternoon of May 19, Luo Sheng sat down opposite the visiting guests in a reception room of the company, and smiled: "I was thinking about what brought you here."

The visiting guest is Xu Zhijun, the head of Lens Semiconductor and one of the core managers of Huawei.

"The recent actions of Bluestar Group are getting bigger and bigger each time. Regarding the cloud computing concept you put forward, Huawei is currently doing internal research on the subject. I think it is necessary to participate in this matter." Xu Zhijun said with a smile, he did not He made a roundabout, opened the chatterbox and bluntly said the purpose of this, and immediately added: "It is true that I am not here because of Lens Semiconductor, but for the business to run."

"Run business? Come to me?" Luo Sheng looked at each other with interest.

Xu Zhijun laughed and said, "You signed a server order worth more than RMB 24 billion with IBM, which is equivalent to about 36% of last year's total sales. You said that you can sit down?"

Hearing this, Luo Sheng seemed to understand his intention. Huawei had already been actively preparing to enter the server market three years ago. This is considered to be a fringe industry developed by Huawei in addition to its core business.

Once a company gets bigger, it insists on consolidating its core business, and at the same time, it will inevitably expand to edge businesses and thus diversify.

"Frankly speaking, Mr. Xu, the construction of three data centers in China is just the beginning, and it may be more than ten times in the future. In the future, with new contracts and data centers built in the mainland, I can give some orders for the servers of Huawei, or even For all the data centers in the mainland, I hope I can give you the list, but you have to get the technology up. I heard that you are cooperating with Intel?

Hearing Luo Sheng's words, Xu Zhijun was stunned for a while, suddenly refreshed, and subconsciously said, "Really?"

Luo Sheng sighed instead: "Lao Mei has begun to make things difficult for the company to invest in the construction of data centers in North America. Various excuses have been found to prevent my expansion in the North American market. The same reason, in case American semiconductor companies are not Supplying it to me is not just a problem for the North American market. If we can do it on the server, I won’t have to worry about potential risks at this level in the future."

That's the case, but Luo Sheng firmly believes that the United States will definitely use unconventional economic means to suppress it, including not limited to technology blockade, market blockade, etc., once it finds that North American companies cannot beat it through normal competition.

When Xu Zhijun heard it, he couldn't help sighing: "I thought that the dazzling achievements of Bluestar Technology Group nowadays, when President Luo was definitely the most proud of, I did not expect that the sense of crisis would still be so heavy."

Luo Sheng smiled and said: "It is necessary to be proud, but it is still not to forget."

Xu Zhijun laughed a few times and said: "This gives Huawei a major opportunity in the server market. If we can get your order, we are more confident to make a name in this market."

When I came to see Luo Sheng this time, Xu Zhijun felt that the chance of persuading the other party should not be a problem. After all, this is also a technology from Lens Semiconductor, and Luo Sheng's Blue Coast Company holds 34% of Lens Semiconductor's shares.

As a new entrant in this field, especially in the initial stage, the most feared is that a large amount of investment in the early stage will not be favored by customers later, and orders will not be able to recover costs, thus forming a nauseous cycle. Lead to final failure.

The support of Bluestar Technology, and it is definitely a major customer, which means that costs can be recovered and the money earned can be invested in research and development, thus forming a favorable two-way positive cycle.

Under normal circumstances, customers will never look for such new players in the industry, but look for industry giants such as Dell, Intel or IBM. The reason is also very simple, and the benefits are guaranteed.

Only Luo Sheng will do this, dare to hand over orders to novices to support the development of enterprises in the mainland.

There are not many entrepreneurs that Xu Zhijun can admire, but Luo Sheng is definitely one of them.

A consensus was reached on this matter today. Luo Sheng decided on the spot to give Wah a 1.5 billion contract to build a data center with 120,000 sets of servers using the server brand of Future Wah.

The shadow of Huawei’s products has not been seen, and it was the first to get a large contract. This is undoubtedly a stimulant for the server business department of Huawei. It has seen Luo Sheng’s determination to support it. Not verbally.

But in general, it is beneficial for both Bluestar Technology Group and the Blue Coast Company to be able to do so in the server market.

For Bluestar Technology Group, this is to improve its own fighting ability to increase the opponent's attack cost and reduce the enemy's willingness to attack. For the Blue Coast company, it can share 34% of the profit, which is real. of.

Luo Sheng would not be a server by himself, even if he was a traverser.

Doing everything is equivalent to offending everyone. Spreading too much plate will also bring more enemies. The key is that it may not be able to bring the maximum profit from a commercial point of view, and it may also face a crash. Dangerous, Luo Sheng didn't want to follow in the footsteps of Boss Jia, although he admired Boss Jia's ability to fool.

The correct way is to have more friends and few enemies.

In fact, most of the successful technology giant groups are not kaleidoscope-shaped. They seem to be involved in everything. In fact, they are marginal businesses, and they are more of a pit.

At a critical moment or when necessary, these edge businesses can be cut and discarded at any time without having too much impact on themselves.

Luo Sheng firmly believes that the correct approach for a technology company is to focus on a few core businesses, mainly high value-added businesses, and then incorporate edge businesses into continuous trial and error, and once they are determined that they will not become core businesses, they will be separated.

For example, giants such as TI, IBM, and Intel do this.

They hold the core links of the industry chain and those high value-added businesses in their hands, and then support the entire industry chain to allow more companies to participate, expand the market, and give up marginal businesses in exchange for regional market access permits and many more.

The business of Bluestar Technology Group now seems to be a lot. At first glance, there are already ten wholly-owned subsidiaries, and now there is a cloud computing service sector. Luo Sheng has also invested in edge businesses such as the gaming industry.

But carefully calculated, whether blue space, online video business, or game business, these are all focused on one core point, that is, the ecological chain based on the data core.

Therefore, the cloud computing service of Bluestar Technology Group did not establish a subsidiary to separate the business, but directly operated by the parent company.

In the final analysis, big data is the foundation of Bluestar Technology. As long as the data is in hand, it is equivalent to having the ability to regenerate a broken arm, and its recovery ability is unparalleled.

Even if the other business sectors of the Bluestar Technology Group are severely damaged or even enter an existential crisis, as long as the data core is not threatened, it will soon be reborn.

But this is not enough. Bluestar Technology still has flaws, and this flaw will be solved perfectly with the Azure Coast Company.

Luo Sheng owns these two companies, which means that it can build a perfect closed loop of the ecosystem from software to consumer electronics.

And as time approaches day by day, now the days when the azure coast is shocking are getting closer and closer, and the countdown has entered the last three months.
