Global monopoly of technology

"Shocking news..."

"Suddenly! The global stock market crash..."

"The three major domestic stock indexes fell to the limit of one thousand shares, and the little ones were wailing..."

"The global stock market lost $4.76 trillion in 24 hours yesterday..."

"Luo Sheng's irrational decision has caused major losses to the global technology industry. This is a man-made disaster..."

"The destructive power of super-giant companies is unimaginable and must be broken up..."

...

Today, as long as the TV news channels of various countries are opened, the major media in the world are almost reporting the same thing-Luo Sheng hit the market, the global stock market crash.

The front page headlines of major media newspapers are all related news, and the pictures of the pages all publish Luo Sheng's photos.

The Western media in Europe, America and the United States have basically criticized Luo Sheng fiercely, especially the mainstream media in North America.

This wave of Luo Sheng's operation was so ruthless that the whole world had not expected it. May I ask which entrepreneur would be so ruthless?

After tearing his face to the bottom, he would rather lose 800 to hurt the enemy by 1,000.

Internet industry professionals and investors in North America are panicking. If Bluestar Technology zeroes out its investment in the United States over the past decade, the North American Internet industry will inevitably face a major setback.

Now, the panic of most industry professionals is for fear of returning to the winter when the IT bubble burst in 2001.

Consumers in North America are also dumbfounded. Everyone has been looking forward to it for more than two months, waiting for Azure-4 to go on sale.

As the result was approaching when the day of launch was approaching, I was told that there would be no more Azure phones in the North American market, no ACC hosts, and no more iP tablets?

Anyway, the current Reddit forum has exploded, and netizens around the world are performing a flurry of demons on the forum.

...

Apple headquarters.

"Madman, absolute madman, what benefit can he get? Madefak!"

At this moment, at Apple's internal executive meeting, a managing director attending the meeting cursed, Apple's stock price plunged 14.8% directly due to the impact of this black swan incident, and the total market value fell to 75.7 billion US dollars.

The key point is that yesterday's stock market crash has not yet ended, and it is still falling sharply today. The three major North American stock indexes are weak.

Since the 2008 global financial crisis, the Petroleum Finance Group has ceased to play the leading role, and the market has turned into a world of technology giants. Technology-driven economic recovery has become important in the five years after the financial crisis.

Nowadays, the world's top leaders in the Internet and ICT fields have exploded themselves, and almost all technology companies are not immune.

"The biggest problem now is the iPhone business. Once the Côte d'Azur announces the suspension of the authorization of the WOS system, the iPhone business will face a shock crisis." Another Apple executive said.

Today, the iPhone mobile phone business is also one of Apple's core businesses, and 40% of the company's revenue comes from this business. It is only reasonable for Apple's stock price yesterday to be hit by nearly 15 points.

At this time, the head of the company Cook said: "The Côte d'Azur just announced the recall of its employees in North America and withdrew from investing in the nation's business. It did not say that it will cut off patent authorization and international supply. There may be room for maneuver."

"Send someone to ask about the situation, right?"

"It can only be this way."

...

Côte d'Azur headquarters.

On the third day after the global stock market crash, Côte d’Azur’s international supply chain partners took a flight to Sioux City. Among them, companies in the semiconductor industry were the majority. Intel, IBM, ASML, STMicroelectronics, Samsung, TI and other world-renowned companies The semiconductor giants have sent a global vice president over.

Bluestar Technology Group also has many international supplier partners, mainly companies in the Internet and cloud computing fields.

The gathering of global technology giants is naturally in response to current changes.

Around 10 am, in the conference hall of the newly opened Hilton Hotel in Sioux City, global technology giants gathered together, and Luo Sheng also attended the meeting.

This is an informal international supply chain meeting. There are also reporters present at the meeting, but the number is not large. Only a few dozen media outlets have been qualified.

There are only five or six foreign media outlets, and any media that has criticized or reported unfairly is now not advancing. They are also very angry, but helpless.

"Under the background of the deepening globalization of the world economy, the world is now worried about the rise of trade protectionism. I believe that protectionism should not be allowed to rise, and there should never be protectionism in transnational trade."

At the round table, most of them were foreign faces. Everyone was watching Luo Sheng who was speaking. At the same time, everyone had an instant translator on their ears. Although Luo Sheng could speak fluent English, as long as he was in China On the territory of China, he only speaks his own mother tongue.

You can't take him too.

At this moment, the conference consultation has lasted for more than half an hour.

"Contradictions are easy to establish, but it is difficult or even impossible to end them. But I believe one thing. When transnational trade stops, war is not far from us. Transnational trade allows people all over the world to communicate with each other. Culture and values, if we can prevent the rise of protectionism, we should do anything to prevent it from happening."

It is worth mentioning that this time the informal talks and consultations are not just people from major multinational technology companies, the WTO organization has sent the head of the dispute settlement agency under its jurisdiction to also attend the meeting.

But he basically couldn't intervene. He just came to make soy sauce. The tech giants present didn't attack him very much, and even regarded him as non-existent.

"That being said, how do you guarantee that you will not mess up the entire industry? You are a person who has the right to make decisions. How do you guarantee that you will not control the entire industry system?"

The person who said this is the global vice president of STMicroelectronics.

This is a problem that everyone present is more worried about. A certain key link in the industry is the strong right to speak.

The semiconductor industry is also very special. It is the most incredible industry in global collaboration. It also means that as long as a key link is dropped, everyone will stare.

For example, the wafer purification is Japan's Shin-Etsu Chemical, the lithography machine equipment is from the Netherlands' ASML, and the foundry is Chic Semiconductor, Samsung, Intel, etc.

Unfortunately, the Côte d’Azur has also mastered one of the key links, one is enough, so in the industry, there is also the ability to be on par with the old giants like Intel.

However, they are really worried about Luo Sheng's layout in China. With Shengfeng Capital as the output point, he is trying to build a semiconductor industry chain independent of the international system. If it is really done, it will control the entire industry system. The global impact is inevitable.

Although this is almost impossible to do, and no company in history can do it, Luo Sheng is too good at creating miracles.

"First of all, I'm not sure. The only thing that is certain is that the world is uncertain. Every day is uncertain. Only yesterday is certain. I don't know that I will not become dictatorial or stupid." Luo Sheng looked around a group of foreigners and said in an orderly manner: "But all of this should be based on fair, just, and non-discriminatory reciprocal exchanges and cooperation, but I still think we should give the North American authorities some time to listen to everyone."

As time passed by, the meeting continued to negotiate, but after 10 minutes, more than a dozen media professionals who came to the scene were suddenly notified by the staff to leave.

"Why? The meeting is obviously not over, why are we not allowed to report?" a reporter asked the staff who came to urge.

"The following is a closed-door meeting, you must leave!" The staff replied unsmilingly.

"What?"

"Please leave as soon as possible!"

The reporters on the scene instantly realized that most of the bigwigs were about to enter the shady PY trading link, and they were very angry that they couldn't know the information they most wanted to know.

Although not reconciled, seeing the burly figure of the security staff and the appearance that he owed him millions, the media reporters present did not want to be forced out, so they left the scene honestly.

The main entrance of the conference hall slowly closed, and two security staff wearing sunglasses and suits stood motionless on the left and right sides of the gate.

The media reporters who left the scene one after another couldn't imagine that the moment the door closed, the style of painting inside the door suddenly changed, and the big brothers began to breathe fragrance, a picture of harmonious communication was vivid.

"What are you talking about? The patent licensing fee will increase by 50% next year? Why don't you grab it? With such an ugly appearance, you successfully surpassed Qualcomm, Mr. Luo." Apple's vice president said angrily.

The global vice president sent by Qualcomm from one position turned to look at him: "Excuseme?"

The global vice president of IBM seemed to have a serious face and said: "Mr. Luo, you will only increase the contradiction. The world is talking about how reasonable and unruly. IMHO, your Bluestar Technology Group is in North America. All assets may not be able to move away. Do you think it can impact the nation’s Internet industry in this way and go backwards for five years or ten years? It’s impossible. The authorities will forcefully freeze your assets in the United States. It doesn't count what you said."

After finishing talking, IBM's global vice president stared at Luo Sheng calmly. Others also liked to hear and hear. I have to say that the speed of the face change of the people present could not catch up with the speed of 6G.

Everyone was watching Luo Sheng watching the jokes. The latter smiled indifferently: “Some people think that North America’s influence is incomparable. Whoever does it..."

The expressions of the giants from North America seem to be answering: You are right!

Luo Sheng still smiled: "Everyone, I would rather post tens of billions of dollars of money-losing goods. Why don't you understand? If the authorities forcefully freeze my legal assets in the United States, it will only get a pile of scrapped garbage. It also saved me more than a billion dollars in demolition costs. To be honest, hiring North American workers is really expensive."

Everyone was stunned, and IBM's global vice president looked at Luo Sheng and subconsciously said, "What do you mean?"

Luo Sheng shrugged: "Pull the gate!"

Everyone was taken aback again.

Luo Sheng said with a smile: "Do you know how to open the gate? Bluestar Technology has accumulated ten years of data, built data centers, and databases all over the United States... The content accumulated by Internet users across the United States, their photos, their contacts The way, their footprints on the Internet, etc. have all disappeared. For this reason, I don’t mind having Singapore and Norway’s backups processed at the same time."

These words directly caused the foreigners in the audience to blow their hair instantly.
