Global Monopoly of Technology

Chapter five hundred and ninety-ninth

"BOSS, they simply refused to be interviewed."

"Hmm... eh?" Pete Wernick's reaction was half a beat slower. After reflecting on it, the whole person seemed overwhelmed, staring at his secretary with rounded eyes and said loudly: "...What did you say?"

His secretary had to repeat it again.

Pete Wernick was stunned and couldn't say a word. The secretary saw the situation was a little weak, so he said something weakly and waited in the cubicle before slipping away decisively.

"how so……"

Pete Wernick muttered, ignoring his secretary and doubting life.

When did ASML companies get this kind of treatment?

You must know that even if a global vice president came to Huaguo in the past, he was received with extremely high standards, and all kinds of offerings were made.

And this time, as the head of the company, he didn't even meet him. The so-called don't slap the smiley face, but the result was an unceremonious slap in the face.

This gap is not generally large.

In less than half an hour, Pete Wernick saw news reports of his coming to China, and according to reports, it was an unnamed executive on the Côte d'Azur who broke the news.

The news that the head of ASML came overnight, but was shut out, spread overnight, and major media were reporting on the matter.

Pete Wernick, who saw these news, was so angry that he closed himself several times. Not only did he disappear, but he also fell into trouble. Shame, shame, anger and other emotions were intertwined in Pete Wernick.

It was deliberately embarrassing him.

He knew that this matter not only failed to turn around, but that it was clever but was mistaken by cleverness. Pete Wernick had calculated many possibilities, but in the end, he did not calculate that Luo Sheng would not see him at all.

Because in his opinion, no matter how bad it is, it is not a problem to meet.

However, the result backfired, and he made up for it. Pete Wernick suddenly felt that his move was extremely ridiculous. It turned out that Luo Sheng was determined to kill ASML, and he had no interest in negotiating.

Do you regret it?

Of course Pete Wernick regrets it now,

He could even imagine how John, the co-chairman of SIA, would make fun of him at that time, and he would definitely be pulled out and flogged, using the textbook as a negative teaching material to flog the corpse.

With the fermentation of the news, this matter has become the latest hot spot today, all major media are reporting it, industry insiders are analyzing and interpreting it, and netizens who eat melon are talking about it.

"ASML also has today, who will God forgive?"

"The Archbishop is really just!"

"In the past, we provided ASML in various ways like grandchildren. As the party A who paid the money, we had to look at the mood of the other party. How frustrated we were in the past, how much we are more excited now."

"Send it to the door to get humiliated, there is nothing to say."

"It's just one word - cool EB."

"Peter Wernick is estimated to be stupid now. It's not a human being inside or outside, and neither side can get any benefits. I'm afraid that ASML's stock price will continue to crash tomorrow. It's a certainty."

"This is the rhythm of death."

"If you don't die, you have to die. This is a sin and debt owed by ASML in the past."

"It can only be said that sooner or later you will have to pay it back."

"The Archbishop has fulfilled many people's dreams. Before we know it, our high-end manufacturing industry has reached such a height that even ASML can look down on it."

...

ASML is indeed not a person inside or outside. Pete Wernick ate a closed door at Luo Sheng, which directly disrupted all his previous layouts. Not only did it not help the company's crisis response, but the situation became more dangerous.

Now it is a dilemma, with both ends offended, and it has become an international laughing stock.

The news here soon crossed the ocean and spread all over the world. This time, the mainstream media in Europe and the United States no longer lost their voices, and they reported on it, and even the media published comics to satirize Pete Wernick.

There is a feeling of being pushed by the wall, and the report of such a big book is also expressing a situation to other manufacturers. When the end of the second and fifth boys is the end of the current ASML, Luo Sheng has already opened up the entire domestic semiconductor industry chain. In cooperation with you, in addition to fighting only fighting.

...

Sure enough, ASML did not give up treatment because of this. Pete Wernick began to save himself further, and turned to meet with the head of its domestic manufacturer. The negotiation failed, and he turned into a salesman, selling the best products to manufacturers including Huaxin International. Advanced lithography equipment.

Everything was killed by Luo Sheng.

...

Hua Hong Semiconductor's internal executive meeting.

"The ASML incident is now full of uproar, and the city is full of storms. Pete Wernick ate a closed door on the Côte d'Azur, and lost his face to the international community. Now it's shameless, selling extreme ultraviolet lithography machines in various ways, and export restrictions overnight. All are gone, what do you think about this matter?" The head of the head, Wang Zong, looked at the crowd and said.

Hua Hong Semiconductor is also a relatively well-known and relatively powerful semiconductor manufacturer in China. This time, it has also received the goodwill of ASML's active release. As long as Hua Hong intends to buy ASML's EUV lithography equipment, it can be sold.

This is a big temptation for many domestic manufacturers. If you get the equipment in advance, you can supply the market in advance, step by step.

The managers who attended the meeting expressed their views one after another.

"I think this matter needs careful consideration."

"How to say?"

"Peter Wernick is now like an ant on a hot pan - hopping around, although he is now selling the most advanced extreme ultraviolet lithography equipment, can he really supply domestic manufacturers for the first time? ?"

"I don't think so. There is even a question mark about whether it can be supplied. ASML's extreme ultraviolet lithography machine has just come out soon, and some overseas international manufacturers are also queuing up. I don't think it is much faster than the efficiency of the Côte d'Azur. ."

"Yes, another point that cannot be ignored is that what Pete Wernick is talking about is actually another matter. The 'Batumi Agreement' is there, and North America will do nothing about it? Am I not? Believe it, this matter is very likely to become a farce, and even a pit."

"Pete Wernick's promises are more like empty promises, and you have to be careful."

"The most important thing is, what will the Côte d'Azur think of us? Luo Sheng's attitude towards this is very critical. Pete Wernick ate a closed door with him. This is a posture of wanting to kill ASML, and he makes no secret of it. If we get together at this time, wouldn't we just slap Luo Sheng in the face? How will we get along in the country in the future?"

"Yes, this is the most important point to consider carefully. If it doesn't work out, it will be as unflattering as ASML at the moment, and it will be miserable. Let's not talk about anything else, Luo Sheng's previously promised US$175 billion special loan fund. It's gone."

"Contact with ASML is very likely to push us to the opposite of Luo Sheng, which is too risky."

The executives who attended the meeting said something to me, and Mr. Wang nodded secretly while listening to the debate and analysis of the crowd. At the end, he immediately made a final decision: "This matter, Hua Hong will not join in the fun. There are too many things done by human beings, and we still put our bets on Mr. Luo’s semiconductor whole industry chain plan.”

Other executives also nodded in favor of this decision. Now the industry is facing a major reshuffle. Everyone is panicking. The entire industry is in a state of turmoil. The rhythm of the crowd dances wildly. Opportunities and challenges in this impetuous environment Coexist, see the situation clearly and become the ultimate winner.

Some people greeted Pete Wernick warmly, some chose to stay behind the door, and more simply stated that they would advance and retreat with Luo Sheng, and completely draw a clear line with him.

All of these people have been successfully recorded in a small book on the Cote d'Azur. Who is a relatively reliable partner in the future and who is not have been recorded.

...

With the passage of time, 2015 finally came to an end, and the time came to 2016.

In the CEO's office at the Cote d'Azur headquarters, Yao Jianhong said to Luo Sheng, "It's been almost a month since things were fermenting, and SIA didn't respond, nor did they send anyone to contact him for negotiation. I'm really calm."

Luo Sheng said: "Whoever takes the initiative to contact them will be defeated, so now it's a waste of time, so let's waste it. There will be results before March at the latest, but it's definitely not our first shot."

The "temporary license" period of Cerulean Coast and Bluestar Technology in North America will end in March. Unless the extension is continued, this Luo Sheng is very happy to see, but the probability of another extension is not high. This time, the other party is determined to "go." "Blue Star", long pain is worse than short pain.

Luo Sheng added: "In this negotiation, if you attend the meeting with old man John of SIA, I will not come forward."

Yao Jianhong: "Me? President Luo, the other party may not be happy, because the specifications are not equal, they may refuse to negotiate."

Luo Sheng smiled indifferently and said affirmatively: "Reject? Time will not wait for them, and what I want is that the specifications are not equal. You come forward to talk with them, which means that we are talking with a strong attitude, and the effect is completely different. Dealing with foreigners One thing to understand is that the more you show a strong attitude, the more they will respect you, although they are very upset, but this is two different things, hate me is another matter."

Yao Jianhong nodded: "It makes sense, then it's settled."

After a while, Luo Sheng changed the subject and said, "How's the ASML thing going? Who have you met?"

Yao Jianhong replied with a smile, "It's all been recorded."

Hearing the words, Luo Sheng nodded and said, "Very good, label them accordingly and treat them differently. It just so happens that the first batch of 175 billion US dollars of special corporate lending funds is about to be implemented, and it will start from here. For partners who trust us, They have already voted for peaches and plums, and we should also pay Qiong Yao in return."

Yao Jianhong said, "Where's the grass on the wall?"

Luo Sheng: "We can do what we want to do. They didn't do anything too hurtful. It's their right to do business, but it's also our right to not want to continue to cooperate with them."

Yao Jianhong: "Understood."
