Rebirth of the Evil Life

Lin Feng got out of the car with a happy mood. m

When all the reporters saw Lin Feng finally coming out, they immediately surrounded him.

"Mr. Lin, are you sure about this hearing?"

"Mr. Lin, this time Intel accuses you of taking advantage of your absolute monopoly in the graphics card market to force computer manufacturers to buy AMD chips. What do you think...Many reporters fired at you like laser guns.

Lin Feng pursed his lips, and after these reporters fell silent, Lin Feng pointed at the logo of the U.S. Department of Commerce, "What I think is not important, what matters is what they think!"

All reporters were silent.

"Hi, Paul, this is..." Lin Feng walked directly towards Paul Otellini, who was waiting at the door, and glanced at the man next to him who looked very Japanese.

"Lin Feng, let me introduce to you. This is Furukawa, the vice president of Microsoft. He is Japanese!" Paul Otellini specifically reminded Furukawa's identity.

Lin Feng's eyes narrowed slightly, and then he smiled.

"I never shake hands with Japanese men, Furukawa, this is a big gift from Microsoft!" After saying that, Lin Feng nodded to Paul Otellini, "Paul, if Intel wants to occupy the market, it won't be that simple. !”

Paul Otellini smiled. Well, it all depends on who wins today.

"Hmph, arrogant Chinese!" Furukawa Xiang was ignored by Lin Feng throughout the whole process, and felt the burning pain on his face. No matter what, today he represents "Microsoft" and is afraid of testifying against Lin Feng. As a result, Lin Feng didn't even look at him, which shocked him so much. There is endless resentment in my heart.

Paul Otellini shrugged. 'Microsoft' asked you to come, isn't it just hoping for this effect? This Japanese is really an idiot. But Lin Feng was so calm. Why exactly? He and Lin Feng had met several times before, when Lin Feng had just founded the Second World and had not yet acquired AMD. The two had met some times and had some friendship. Even after Lin Feng acquired AMD, Paul Otellini and Lin Feng had tea several times. After all, although the two companies are in opposition, there are areas where they can cooperate.

But after Lin Feng acquired ‘’ and took control of ‘A’, the two parties never met again. The relationship also dropped to freezing point. There is no way, Lin Feng has become the mortal enemy of Intel. If he still has contact with Lin Feng, will he still be able to take the position of CEO?

These years of contact,

Jean-Paul Otellini has a more intuitive understanding of Lin Feng than Microsoft. This man's business methods are so sophisticated that he doesn't look like a young man, and he is much more cunning than some old and cunning old businessmen. But perhaps because he is too young, Lin Feng often finds it difficult to suppress some of the passion in his heart. now. The relaxed look on Lin Feng's face meant that something good must have happened to Lin Feng. And this good thing should be related to this hearing.

So what is it? Paul Otellini was suspicious. This hearing is the last resort to restrain Lin Feng, if it fails again. Paul Otellini doesn't know how else to control Lin Feng. Whether Intel's future will rise or fall depends on today's hearing.

"Paul, let's go, the hearing is about to begin!" Furukawa said.

Paul Otellini came to his senses, nodded, and walked in.

Fifteen minutes later, the hearing officially began. Because this involves many secrets of both companies, reporters are not allowed to enter for interviews. Only the lawyers and clients of both parties can attend.

"Mr. Lin, it is now announced that the illegal competition case against you by 'Microsoft' and 'Intel' has officially opened." The judge knocked the gavel.

Lin Feng smiled slightly and nodded towards the judge.

Subsequently, ‘Microsoft’ and ‘Intel’ presented relevant evidence of accusations. Without exception, they all accuse Lin Feng of using his monopoly influence in the graphics card market to force users to choose "second world" products, leaving users with no free choice. 'Microsoft' accused Lin Feng of disregarding the interests of all users for the sake of 'Pangu System' and not developing drivers for 'Microsoft' system, and listed that users are now forced to use 'Pangu System' because they do not have 'Microsoft' system. a lot of data. At present, the number of people in the "Pangu System" worldwide has exceeded 500 million.

Intel accused Lin Feng of using his monopoly on graphics cards to force users to buy AMD chips instead of Intel chips. It also listed that a large number of computer manufacturers abandoned "Intel" and chose "AMD". Its market share dropped sharply from the original 79% to 64%!

Both of these charges are very serious. Once found guilty, Lam Fung Company will be doomed. This was recognized by lawyers from all three parties before coming here.

"Mr. Lin, please respond to the accusations made by Intel and Microsoft," the judge said.

Lin Feng smiled.

"Your Honor, regarding the accusation of 'Intel', I can only explain one thing. This is the result of free choice of consumers. Why not choose 'Intel' chips, but choose 'AMD' chips? Because if consumers choose all When the hardware produced by our company is assembled into a computer, the performance can achieve the effect of 1+1 greater than 2. On the contrary, if you choose an 'Intel' chip and add our company's graphics card, the effect can only reach 1+1=2 at most. Consumers are smart, and they will naturally choose to buy the computer with the best performance for the least money. Therefore, I do not admit this accusation." Lin Feng said, showing a series of evidence. It's the 'Second World' that conducts interviews with consumers buying computers in the market these days. Videos asking them why they chose ‘AMD’ over ‘Intel’ chips.

In the video, most consumers came to the conclusion that Intel is too expensive and although the performance is good, it is not that good. As for ‘AMD’, all consumers conclude that it is of high quality and low price. Although the performance is slightly inferior, it is worse than the performance of the whole machine after assembly, and it can be tied with mixed computers. The price of the whole machine is slightly cheaper. Therefore, consumers choose ‘AMD’ instead of ‘Intel’.

Obviously, based on random interviews with approximately 120,000 videos, consumers are free to choose, not forced.

"Mr. Lin... Company, has your 'Second Bank' acquired 50% of its shares?" the judge said coldly. This time he was sent by the US Department of Commerce to suppress Lin Feng. Naturally, he would not let Lin Feng Get away with it easily.

"Wrong, your honor. As for the acquisition of 'A' company, it should be like this. Ellison's 'Oracle' acquired 50% + 1 shares, and I obviously only have 50% - 1 shares. The company Legally speaking, it is owned by Oracle. Although I am the second largest shareholder, I have no controlling interest,” said Lin Feng. “And I have never been to Oracle, nor do I hold any Oracle shares. 's shares... This is the acquisition ratio that was agreed upon by Lin Feng and Ellison back then. Ellison's Oracle has an advantage, and Lin Feng has a slight disadvantage, which ensures that Lin Feng will not be subject to antitrust investigations. , there is also an agreement in the contract, that is, once 'Oracle' wants to sell... then it must be sold to Lin Feng first.

The judge frowned. Regarding this document, Lin Feng also showed him a copy. According to the document, it is true that Oracle Company owns 50%+1 of the shares. Legally speaking, Oracle has the advantage and Lin Feng does not have an absolute monopoly.

But even so, the judge would not let Lin Feng off easily.

"But Ellison is your best friend, and the second largest shareholder of your 'Second Consortium'!" The judge smiled coldly, "Lin Feng, you can't deny this! Driven by profit, Ellison It is normal for Leeson to do anything to favor you and harm Intel."

Lin Feng's face turned cold. Indeed, this was something that Lin Feng did not expect when he established the 'Second Consortium'. If Lin Feng did not establish a ‘second consortium’, then it would be impossible to convict Lin Feng of monopoly simply based on the relationship between Lin Feng and Ellison. In particular, Ellison had no shares in Second Bank, and Lin Feng had never held even one share of Oracle.

It's a pity that Lin Feng established the "Second Financial Group" in order to win over his brothers and make everyone make money, but he forgot this point. This is also the defeat this time. Fortunately, Lin Feng was already prepared for this. When a strong man cuts off his wrist, Lin Feng has to make sacrifices. Of course, he is not like Abby Cohen, selling 'AMD' to let 'Microsoft' and 'Intel' fight, but preparing to sell all 'A' to ' Oracle'. But maybe that won't work. Because Ellison still holds shares in the ‘Second Consortium’, the two parties have a relationship.

Lin Feng suddenly realized this. Oracle cannot hold shares at all. Unless Ellison withdraws from the Second Consortium or leaves Oracle personally, the U.S. Department of Commerce cannot use this matter to accuse itself of monopoly. After thinking about this, Lin Feng suddenly started sweating profusely. I missed a little bit. The most important thing is that I missed it.

Seeing Lin Feng suddenly sweating profusely, Paul Otellini and Furukawa Xiang both guessed that Lin Feng must have miscalculated something, and they both smiled. Before they came, they had calculated any contingency measures Lin Feng had. If you want to sell all the 'A' shares to 'Oracle', hey, that won't work, unless Ellison withdraws from the 'Second Consortium' and sells his shares in the 'Second Consortium'. In that case, the relationship between Lin Feng and Ellison would not be so strong. Then the outside world has a chance. Moreover, will Oracle really listen to Ellison alone?

Paul Otellini sneered. This matter is not that simple! If these super companies join forces, they will not give Lin Feng a way out. Wanting to sell it... Lin Feng would realize that selling it would only delay his death.
