Global monopoly of technology

"Mr. Luo, it’s too unnatural for you to do this. Young people are immoral and disregard the interests of all mankind for their own interests. You will know about the super solar storm tomorrow morning, but you will not stand up in time to warn the world, but use it to plot Self-interest."

In the conference hall, the negotiators from both sides sat in a clear and distinct manner. John, the co-CEO of the North American Semiconductor Industry Association who was present at the meeting, came up and began to question Luo Sheng repeatedly. John then added in a sarcastic tone: "...This is what You mean looking at the world and serving all mankind?"

Luo Sheng, who was sitting opposite, replied calmly: "Mr. John, who is also in trouble, if I don't make some money, how can I fill the capital hole left by the ladder project after investors withdraw their capital?"

It’s okay if I don’t say this. I said it at this time to make the foreigners who are present at the meeting feel very angry. Hearing the unusual harshness in their ears, a foreigner here whispers to the person next to him: "That bastard was deliberate. Do our mentality..."

Luo Sheng’s words were heard in their ears, and it was undoubtedly a mockery of Chi Guoguo. It was too much to smash it. Those investors who withdrew halfway, especially Wall Street Capital, are now almost turned into laughingstocks. Luo Sheng’s record is How brilliant they are, how shame they are.

At this moment, Luo Sheng saw that the other party was angry and did not immediately answer the conversation, and calmly continued: "Take a step back, there is no law that requires me to stand up and warn the world. Maybe you still think I am spreading. Rumors, this is not the focus of today’s negotiations."

John took the conversation in a nonchalant tone: "Let's talk about the main point. Our request is very simple. You must transfer the remaining chip orders or cancel the order."

The current situation is that Europe and the United States have fallen into a great passivity. Luo Sheng smashed a $2 trillion order contract two years ago and placed orders and sweeps wildly at major semiconductor manufacturers around the world.

At that time, all semiconductor manufacturers were crazy. Four years after the order was fully booked, it was necessary to expand the production capacity by 30% before it was possible to complete the delivery according to the contract.

It also directly stimulated the global semiconductor industry in the past two years out of the super bull market, semiconductor listed companies all over the world are skyrocketing.

At that time, what was the concept of placing a $2 trillion order in almost one breath?Calculated by the purchasing power of US dollars at that time, the current global chip industry market size is less than 500 billion US dollars.

In other words, Luo Sheng's layout two years ago had already arranged the order for the four years just before the arrival of the solar storm, during which all the surplus production capacity in the world would be given priority to him.

Then the problem is coming. During this period, the chips produced by the chip manufacturers have to be delivered to Luo Sheng. If European and American countries want to reserve chips in the last year or more, it means that there is no time window.

One and a half years after the latest batch was delivered, the solar storm hit and produced a hammer. By then, it was not an output, but a problem of reconstruction.

For Europeans and Americans, the problem lies here, and here is also the passivity, the effective time window is completely occupied by Luo Sheng.

Additional expansion of the production line?Big deal to avoid Luo Sheng's list?

This seems to be an effective solution, but in fact it is absolutely impossible. How could Luo Sheng leave such a big loophole for them to take advantage of?

Chip technology is characterized by rapid iterations, one-and-a-half-year differences, and the current chip technology is close to the physical limit. In order to supply Luo Sheng's orders, major semiconductor manufacturers around the world have expanded their production lines.

The problem is here. If you want to expand production capacity, these semiconductor manufacturers will absolutely not agree, and they are absolutely unwilling to do so.

If they do so, they will face unpredictable risks. Expanding production capacity is an act of losing money. When the solar storm blows over all of them, they will be scrapped, and the cost will definitely not be recovered, both inside and out. It is a blood loss, and the risk of company bankruptcy is extremely high.

Do the European and American authorities give these semiconductor companies subsidies?Sorry!No money!

Lao Mei didn't have any money to spend it. Issuing debt is not worth it now. She didn't receive the offer and was severely cut by Luo Sheng with a sickle. As for Ouzhou, let alone.

It seems that these semiconductor companies can breach the contract, but these semiconductor manufacturers do not have this obligation. Even if they are conscious of breaching the contract, it means paying a huge amount of liquidated damages to Luo Sheng. Not only is the expected profit lost, but also a fortune money.

The shareholders of these semiconductor companies agree?

However, the expectation that the solar storm will inevitably cause huge losses has not disappeared. This time, the company will cause the risk of breaking the capital chain and trigger a chain reaction. The storm may go bankrupt at any time.

This is something that major semiconductor manufacturers cannot afford, so they can only be forced to form a group to negotiate with Luo Sheng.

When John made the request, Luo Sheng spread his hands and said readily: "No problem, the transfer order will be delivered and settled at double the price. If you cancel the order, just follow the contract."

"What are you talking about? Double?" A member of the European negotiating team on John's side said angrily: "You are taking advantage of the fire, Mr. Luo, I advise you to do it yourself, not to go too far."

Luo Sheng was as calm and calm as ever, and said: "In business, I just quoted a reasonable price, and the goods in my hand meet the expected premium brought by the solar storm."

At the same time, I replied in my heart: I was right, just taking advantage of the fire.

At this time, the person in charge of the business negotiation team in North America said with a cold face: "I have to remind you Mr. Luo that we are here to negotiate with you with sincerity. Please also show some sincerity. I have to tell you. In accordance with federal law, the chip materials you reserve in North America are entitled to emergency requisition under special circumstances."

"It's the same to beat the league!"

The notebook and the stick did not speak.

Obviously, the words of the Europeans and Americans are full of threats between the lines. If it doesn't work, you will directly requisition. Your goods are not offshored in China, but are sealed in Europe and North America.

If it's a big deal, I'll tear my skin. If it sounds good, it's emergency requisition, if it sounds bad it's just grabbing.

The negotiating team on the European and American side thought that this could scare Luo Sheng and force him to compromise and retreat. After all, he spent real money to smash in, and it was an astronomical figure. It was nothing but the gains outweighed the losses.

Luo Sheng looked down at the manuscript on the table in front of him and smiled silently. John and the others on the opposite side of the negotiating table looked at each other, wondering what medicine he sold in the gourd.

At the end, Luo Sheng looked up to the opposite side, still speaking in a calm tone without any waves: "I also have a sentence to tell you that in accordance with our country’s Constitution, in order to maintain the country’s security and stability under special circumstances, Have the right to make emergency requisition of all resources onshore, and even nationalize them when necessary."

As soon as this remark came out, John and the others at the opposite side of the negotiating table seemed expressionless, because Luo Sheng spoke in Chinese, even though he could speak English.

After their translator listened to Luo Sheng's words intact, the face of John and others changed drastically.

"you--!"

At this moment, Luo Sheng lowered his head and took a sip of hot tea, then looked up and smiled: "I'm fine."

The person across the negotiating table was so angry that he was autistic.

The people on Luo Sheng's side all showed contemptuous sneers, thinking that the person on the other side was quite funny. If the big boss can be scared by this kind of fright, can he cut you 10 trillion?Can there be today's achievements?

Hurt each other?

Come on, let’s see who has lost the most. There is still about 15% of the remaining shares of Shengfeng Capital’s ladder project. If you dare to engage in the so-called "emergency expropriation", then you dare to return the remaining 15%. State-owned, this asset alone is already an unbearable loss.

What's more, the investment of European and American capital in the Greater China region has increased significantly in recent years. The pension fund of the United States has made a lot of investment here. Even though the investment in the Tianti Project is basically cut off, the investment in the Greater China region has been Still not a small sum.

If you dare to break the most basic rules of the game, don't want to move these assets offshore.

The result is not difficult to foresee. It may evolve into building barriers to each other, stopping trade, and continuing to deteriorate may get out of control and even trigger a hot war.

At this time, the person in charge of the negotiating team in Japan saw that the two sides were unable to come to the stage at a stalemate, and decisively stepped forward and spoke with the character of the mud: "I propose to adjourn the meeting for one hour, and then talk after one hour!"
