MTL - The Science Fiction World of Xueba-Chapter 464 Don Valentine

Ren Zhengfei smiled and said: "This is not a routine, this is called each needs!"

Pang Xuelin pondered for a moment, and said with a smile: "Okay, then when I come back from the United States, then let's discuss to see what price is more suitable to buy Warwick!"

If you own Warwick, you will find Warwick's presence as a very useful supplement to Xinghuan Technology. Pang Xuelin is looking forward to what level the two companies will unite in the future.

"Okay, that's it!"

After discussing with Ren Zhengfei a good shareholding in Warwick, the next topic of the two eased down.

Talk about China's industrial development and the political and economic differences between China and the United States.

Time passed quickly, and a dozen hours of journey passed by.

At 2 pm local time, Dragonair's aircraft landed slowly at Los Angeles International Airport.

Pang Xuelin and Ren Zhengfei and their party said goodbye at the airport. Pang Xuelin and Sun Yansheng transferred directly from Los Angeles International Airport to San Francisco, and Ren Zhengfei and they will stay in Los Angeles to participate in the CTIA International Wireless Communications Exhibition.

The San Francisco Bay Area is a metropolitan area in northern California on the west coast of the United States. It has a land area of ​​18,040 square kilometers and a population of more than 7.6 million.

The San Francisco Bay Area is located around the San Francisco Bay at the mouth of the lower Sacramento River, with a total of 101 counties and towns in 9 counties.

Major cities include San Francisco on the San Francisco Peninsula, Oakland in the east and San Jose in the south. The world-famous high-tech research and development base Silicon Valley is located in the southern part of the Bay Area.

The main part of Silicon Valley is located in Santa Clara County at the southern end of the San Francisco Peninsula. It mainly includes a 25-mile valley from Palo Alto to San Jose, the county capital.

The total area of ​​Silicon Valley generally includes some cities in San Mateo County in the southwest of the San Francisco Bay Area, such as Menlo Park, and some cities in Alameda County in the east of the San Francisco Bay Area. Such as Fremont.

In this era, Silicon Valley is the kingdom of the electronics industry and the computer industry. It is the pioneer and center of high-tech innovation and development in the world. Venture investment in the region accounts for one-third of the total venture investment in the United States. Computer companies in Silicon Valley have grown to about 1500.

It was an orchard a century ago, but since the headquarters of high-tech companies such as Intel, Apple, Google, Facebook, and Yahoo have settled here, many bustling towns have emerged.

In just a few decades, Silicon Valley has stepped out of a large number of tech rich.

The main location of Silicon Valley is supported by some of the top U.S. universities with strong scientific research strengths nearby, including Stanford University and the University of California at Berkeley, as well as several other universities of the University of California system and Santa Clara University.

Structurally, Silicon Valley is based on a group of high-tech small and medium-sized companies. In addition to Intel, Apple, HP, Cisco, Nvidia, Oracle, Yahoo and other companies, in the next few years, large companies such as Google, Facebook, and Tesla will be bred here. , Integrate science, technology and production.

Scooper, under Sun Yansheng, is located in San Jose, the capital of Santa Clara County in the southern Silicon Valley.

In the next two days, Pang Xuelin, accompanied by Sun Yansheng, conducted a comprehensive inspection of Scotiaber.

Including the company's current financial situation, R & D environment, patent layout, overall technical level of scientific research personnel, etc.

Overall, Sperber's impression of Pang Xuelin was almost what he expected.

The level of the scientific research department as a whole cannot be said to be much higher, although it is much stronger than the domestic one, but considering that this is Silicon Valley, this company's strength in the field of chip design can only be regarded as quite satisfactory.

The only lead is the accumulation in the field of MEPG-1 video compression technology, and because of the emergence of Xinghuan Technology, it has become dispensable.

In addition, the company's overall management is more general and the atmosphere is more relaxed.

Perhaps this is also related to Sun Yansheng's technical background. In the real world, Scotiaber made a lot of money in the era of VCD explosion in China by virtue of its monopoly in the field of video decoding chips.

But in the age of the Internet, the company's business gradually lonely.

However, Pang Xuelin did not seem to be so disappointed. For him, the existence of Scopus is just a bridgehead for Starring Technology to the European and American markets.

According to his plan, after the acquisition of Scooper, Scooper's chip R & D department will continue to exist as the North American division of Starring Technology.

Of course, this is just a small role played by Scooper. Scooper has a more important task.

It will form a strong marketing department responsible for the promotion of Xinghuan CVD in the entire North American market.

This kind of work is not easy to do, after all, the copyright awareness in the West is stronger.

In order to enter the US market, Pang Xuelin must first reach a series of cooperative relations with major Hollywood companies and obtain the corresponding film and television copyright authorization from them in order to truly show his strength.

The funds and energy consumed in this area should not be underestimated.

However, it is also worthwhile, as long as the products of Xinghuan CVD can be widely spread in the European and American markets, then any product of Xinghuan Technology in the future will have a stable sales channel.

For Pang Xuelin, this is a profitable business.

Pang Xuelin stayed in San Francisco for almost a week before he received a call from Benson Rafael.

Don Valentine is already waiting for him at a manor on the outskirts of San Jose.

This morning, Pang Xuelin, accompanied by Sun Yansheng, drove straight to the Valentin Estate on the outskirts of San Francisco.

This manor was built in 1865, surrounded by forests, shaded by green trees and beautiful environment.

There are actually tennis courts and golf courses inside the manor. Pang Xuelin was on the golf course in front of the manor and saw Don Valentine swinging his club.

As the founder and leader of Sequoia Capital, Don Valentine is now in his early sixties.

He is not tall, less than one meter seven, and is quite short among white men.

The body was blessed horizontally, swaying from side to side, looking a little funny.

But his eyes were very sharp. When he saw Pang Xuelin's first glance, he took the initiative to welcome him, reaching out his hand and smiling: "Mr. Pang, welcome to San Francisco!"

"Mr. Valentine, hello!"

Pang Xuelin reached out and smiled and shook hands with Valentine.

The two came to a table and chairs and sat down, and soon a waiter brought a coffee drink.

Valentine said with a smile: "Mr. Pang, I heard your story, genius boy, small stock **** in Xiangjiang stock market, your star ring CVD is really a wonderful invention, there is one in my bedroom, this I used this CVD to watch movies every day for a few days and it felt great! "

Pang Xuelin smiled and said, "Mr. Valentine, you just like it!"

Valentine laughed and said, "I don't have any exaggerated ingredients. I am very confident in this machine. I believe that if you work hard, this machine will soon sweep the entire North American market and become popular in Europe."

"Oh, Mr. Valentine, are you so optimistic about Star Ring CVD?"

Pang Xuelin smiled slightly.

Valentine also looked at Pang Xuelin with a smile: "Of course, I am optimistic about the Star Ring CVD, just like you are optimistic about Cisco!"

Pang Xuelin's eyes narrowed slightly, and he did not answer.

Valentine said: "Mr. Pang, can you tell me why you are interested in Cisco?"

Pang Xuelin looked at the old man ’s eyes and pondered for a moment, and decided to tell the truth: “Mr. Valentine, in my opinion, the future is the world of the Internet, and it is now on the eve of the outbreak of the IT industry. With companies such as Microsoft, IBM, and Intel Step by step, we should soon usher in the era of the explosion of personal computers, and as an Internet infrastructure supplier. I think Cisco ’s prospects should not be worse. "

Pappa ...

Valentine smiled and applauded. Said: "Mr. Pang, well said, you are the first Oriental I have ever seen with such a clear understanding of the Internet."

Pang Xuelin smiled and said, "Mr. Valentine, you have won the prize."

Valentine smiled: "Mr. Pang, since you think Cisco has such potential, is Cisco's share only equivalent to Xinghuan Technology?"

Pang Xuelin was not surprised by Valentin ’s question at all and said, “Mr. Valentin, I think you also underestimated the value of Xinghuan Technology. As a supplier of audio-visual equipment, Xinghuan Technology has a very perfect patent layout and strong It can be said that no matter which company wants to do CVD or DVD in the future, it is impossible for patents to bypass the control of Xinghuan Technology! "

Valentine's eyes narrowed slightly and turned to Benson Raphael, who was accompanying him.

Rafael Benson nodded.

Pang Xuelin paused and continued: "In the communications field, Cisco has at least Ericsson, Nokia, Alcatel-Lucent and other competitors. However, in the audio-visual entertainment field, Xinghuan Technology basically has no rivals. Perhaps, Cisco's market prospects are expected. It will be higher than Xinghuan Technology, but I think, if it is about its ability to make money, ten Ciscos may not beat my Xinhua Technology! "

"Oh, can you talk about your profit model?"

Pang Xuelin laughed and said, "Mr. Valentine, what do you think if the Star Ring CVD is spread out in the United States on a large scale, what price should it cost?"

Valentine pondered for a moment and said, "Let's start at $ 700!"

Pang Xuelin said with a smile: "Do you know how much is the manufacturing cost of a star ring CVD?"

"How much is the manufacturing cost?"

Valentine stared at Pang Xuelin Road.

Pang Xuelin stretched out a finger, said lightly: "100 dollars!"

As the voice fell, the entire golf course could not help but be quiet, only the wind blowing the sound of leaves rustling.

Valentine and Benson Raphael couldn't help but look at each other. Although they were very optimistic about the star ring CVD, and even estimated the cost of the star ring CVD, the figures given by Pang Xuelin still far exceeded their expectations.

After a long time, Valentine smiled and said, "Young man, you are better than I thought!"

Pang Xuelin smiled faintly and did not answer.

Valentine said: "Mr. Pang, if you want Cisco shares, I can give you 50 million shares, which is equivalent to 10% of Cisco shares. I have only one condition!"

"What conditions?"

Pang Xuelin curiously said.

Valentine said: "I want Xinghuan's CVD / DVD products to make half of the profits in the North American market in the next 10 years!"

Pang Xuelin couldn't help but stunned, and immediately laughed, this old man, the asking price is really not low.

According to Pang Xuelin's estimate, the market of CVD and DVD in North America is about 1.5 to 2 billion U.S. dollars a year, and if it is profitable, it will look like 1 billion U.S. dollars a year.

In the next 10 years, the equivalent of a net profit of 10 billion US dollars, Valentine will have to take half, which is 5 billion US dollars.

If you do not know the market value of Cisco in the future. For Pang Xuelin, this transaction is a bit boring, and it is a pity to abandon it.

But according to the market value of Cisco's peak of 550 billion US dollars, 10% of the shares are equivalent to 55 billion US dollars.

In other words, Pang Xuelin used Xinhua Technology's five billion dollars in profits in exchange for eleven times the profit.

Where to find such a business!

Of course, on the surface, Pang Xuelin will naturally not show such emotions.

He pondered for a moment and said, "Mr. Valentine, I need to think about this. The reason why I am optimistic about Cisco is because the market prospects of the Internet industry are over there, but I do n’t know where Cisco will go in the future Dare to be sure. You are really some lions who have opened their mouths! "

Valentine said with a smile: "Well, young people, I don't force you, so I will give you a week to think. If you agree, then we will start a formal cooperation in this business. If you don't agree, It does n’t matter, just make a friend! "

Pang Xuelin got up and said with a smile: "Mr. Valentine, then I will disturb today. I will say goodbye. After two days, I will wait until I think about it. I will give you an answer."

Valentine said: "Yes, don't worry about this."

Then Pang Xuelin bid farewell to Benson Raphael.

Watching the figure of Pang Xuelin disappear at the door of the manor. Benson Raphael said: "Mr. Valentine, do we really want to transfer Cisco shares to him?"

Valentine said: "Although Cisco's prospects are good, the shares have increased nearly 10 times in the past few years. UU has read www.uukanshu.com. We have earned enough, and we have appropriately reduced some of our shares in Cisco and invested Why not make a more profitable industry? "

Benson Raphael pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "I see."

On the other side, just after Pang Xuelin and Sun Yansheng got on the bus, Sun Yansheng couldn't wait to say: "Mr. Pang, is Cisco's stock really so valuable?"

Pang Xuelin smiled and said, "I just throw stones and ask for directions."

Whether it is Cisco or Xinghuan Technology, it is just a way for Pang Xuelin to lay out the Internet industry in the future and use it to accumulate original funds.

As far as Pang Xuelin is concerned, the companies that really make money have not yet started to set up.

Google, must die, Baidu, penguin, Taobao Empire ...

These enterprises are his main force in making money in the future!

As for Warwick and Xinghuan Technology, it is used to conquer the star sea!
